[SOLVED] bash and xterm - which files get read and referenced?
I currently have my user shell set as /bin/sh (which, as I'm sure you are aware, is a symlink to bash). When I launch xterm, none of my config files seem to be read or sourced. If I login from the console, all is correct.
According to the documentation I've read, when bash is invoked as sh, it should read /etc/profile, and then .profile, and finally .shrc (which is recommended to be explicitly sourced from .profile). I can see that /etc/profile is being read, as the PATH is being updated from items in /etc/profile.d, but none of my config files in ~ are being read.
I put in a unique alias in each of .bash_profile, .bashrc, .profile, and .shrc to try to trace the files being read. In console, this reveals that .profile and .shrc are being read (as I would expect). But, in xterm, no aliases are being read.
Also, PS1 is set to sh-4.2$ (literally set as '\s-\v\$ '). I have tried to grep that sequence in /etc, but that failed to hit on anything.
I don't have my own .Xresources and nothing in .xinitrc redefines xterm behavior. The only switches I am explicitly sending to xterm redefine appearance (background/foreground color and font).
The only other relevant piece of information I can think of is that I am using the slim login manager and in slim.conf it defines: login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc %session. I changed that to /bin/sh, but it had no effect.
Any ideas?
Solution
Adding
XTerm*.LoginShell: True
to ~/.Xdefaults will cause xterm to behave as expected.

Renaming seems to work correctly now, but it's still only giving me one "dupe mv line" for my test in /etc/X11 and it's not giving me any for the many duplicates in my huge digicam folder.

Which file gets updated in WebLogic domain when a user is created
Hi All,
I have a query regarding In a weblogic domain when we create a user or group in security realm--> myrealm in Dfault Authenticator, then which file or folder under Domain directory structure gets updated?
Thanks in Advance!!In the ${DOMAIN_HOME}/security directory the ldift files for the embedded LDAP are located. Also every server gets its own copy (${DOMAIN_HOME}/servers/${SERVER_NAME}/cluster-server1/data/ldap).

[Solved] Bash and Floating point arithmetic
I didn't realize how troublesome floating point numbers can be until now.
What I want to do should be simple I dare say:
properRounding( ( currentTime - downloadTime ) / ( dueTime - downloadTime ) * 100 )
however best I've been able to achieve so far is this:
echo "($currentTime-$downloadTime)/($dueTime-$downloadTime)*100" | bc -l
Which prints the correct floating point value.
I've tried to put the result in a variable, but I must be doing it wrong as I get the most peculiar error. I can live without it, but it would make life easier.
As for the rounding, that is a must. I've read that if you remove the -l param from bc, then it will round, but in my case something goes wrong as I just get the value 0 in return and besides, concluded after a simple test, bc always rounds down as in integer division, which I can not use.
So of course I'll continue reading and hopefully someday arrive at a solution, but I would very much appreciate if someone could lend me a hand.
This after all is not just a learning experience, I'm trying to create something useful.
Best regards.
edit:
nb:
all variables are integers.

Where do php files get read from locally?
i've installed and tested php on 10.3.9 and it works. i'd like to parse my php files locally. i believe on older os vesions it was the 'sites' folder, but it doesn't seem to work now. where can i place my web files to test? do i have to move everything to library/apache2/htdocs?
thank you!i am not running apache2 at the moment, but i am assuming the problem could result from the fact that mod_userdir.so (or its apache2 equivalent) is not enabled in your apache install, nor are your config files setup to point to the sites folder of your $HOME. for apache 1.3.x, the config file should contain something like the following after enabling mod_userdir.so. this would be particularly true if you compiled from source.
# UserDir: The name of the directory which is appended onto a user's home
# directory if a ~user request is received.
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
UserDir Sites
</IfModule>
assuming you have also added the .php and .phps file types (and whatever else you want), this should get you setup.
again - a bit of a disclaimer - i am not currently running apache2.

Why doesn't my text file get read properly with BufferedReader??
Here is my code:
File props = new File("c:\\jdk13\\props.spm");
FileReader in = new FileReader(props);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(in);
String line= new String("");
while(br.readLine() != null){
line = (br.readLine());
System.out.println(line);
I also tried InputStreamReader but that didn't work right either. Basically, I want to read the lines of a text file which looks like this:
excite.com
hotmail.com
yahoo.com
with the code above, all it sems to read is "hotmail.com" and then a null. what is going on here? anybody have working examples of a BufferedReader reading lines from a text file?
thanks in advance,
chuckIt's happening because you say this:
read the first line
put the next line in the variable line
print it
read the next line
put the next line in the variable line
print it
read the next line - null so I'm done
.readln does just what it says - reads the line. That said, you can do this:
while ( (line = br.readLine() ) != null ) {
System.out.println( line );
} -

bind '"\e[11~": "Function Key 1"'
doesn't have any effect on my machine. No ~/.inputrc is created and there are also no changes on the /etc/inputrc.
Also creating a .inputrc in my home dir doesnt have any effect, also after reboot. Its a new system, so maybe there are any essential packages missing? I checked and tried a lot, but nothing has effects.
Last edited by gamer01 (2013-08-19 11:58:03)thats the point. to include it in the .inputrc, has no effect at all.
Appending the
bind ...
to my ~/.bashrc has the same effect as typing it directly after login, which means no effect too.
As far as i know should
bind foo
append "foo" to the ~/.inputrc, but the file is not beeing created or edit after execution.
Also changing stuff in the /etc/inputrc doesn't change the behavior. Do i need to activate anything, that readline/bash listens to those files? -
The file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored
We have been sending images out to contractors, and sometimes when they come back the files are having this error:
the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored
When I then try to Photoshop Script the file info it throws errors. Does anyone know what causes this error to happen?
Thank youok, Thanks!, BUT here's the bigger issue:
We use a lot of Photoshop Scripting, and the file info is how we direct all of our workflows. when a file comes back with "the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored" error, the scripts are unable to read/write to any of the file info ever again. So not only did we lose all the info already in the file, but we can't use the file at all after this.
Additonally, we tried copying and pasting to new blank documents, but realized we needed all the paths, channels, and sampler points too.
Is there anything anyone can think of to get around this probelm? A setting, or a program to fix the metadata, etc?
Thanks!!! -
Reading and writing to file , getting null when i try to read file content
i start by apologizing incase i have posted this question in the wrong forum
i am trying to iterate through a directory tree and pick all the subdirectories and put them in an arraylist . on the other hand , i am picking all the files and putting them in a different arraylist . After that i iterate through the arraylist , pick a folder , create a file in it search for all the files of the same type in its subfolders and write them to the newly created file
The problem i am running into is i i can't read the files and hence i can't write to the file .
My directory tree is in the format
c:\KPCData\\01\01\01\01\01\ file1_type1
c:\KPCData\\01\01\01\01\02\ file2_type1
where one one of the types is "covers" . i know this could be asking too much but i am at my tethers end , could someone please have a look at the code and tell me where i might be going wrong . you could zero in on the part where i have ************ before the a line of code thank you package directories;

The problem i am having is that whereas i am very sure that there are contents in the files i am trying to read , this part of the code Print the Values of parentPath,directory.getParent() and file.getName() here .In the start of this if condition to get a idea what stuff is coming here.
if (parentPath.toString().compareTo(directory.getParent())==0&file.getName().contains("cover"))
{Are you trying to compare parentPath and directory.getParent() as Strings ? How about using equals() ?
Also are you aware that a single & and && are not one and the same ?
& will check nevertheless even if the string comparison on the parentPath returns true or false.
&& will not check file.getName() part if the String comparison part fails.
try {
in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
out = new BufferedWriter( new FileWriter(mycover));

catch(NullPointerException e)
System.out.println(e);
catch(IOException e)
System.out.println("There was a problem:" + e);
}How about adding a simple Exception catch block here ,in case you miss anything ?
never gets executed executed (meaning ,according to the code, the files am reading have no content ). i am a bit new to files and directories in java . i am hence seeking advice on what i could be doing wrong .IN short,debugging your code will help you a lot. -

Hi George ,
Is it happening with all the PDF' or any specific one?

How did my stored files get converted from 'open with Adobe READER' to 'open with Adobe ACROBAT'? How can I get them re-set to open with 'Adobe Reader'?
Please reply to my e-mail: [email protected]It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this. -
The following error comes up when I try to install the updated Firefox:
"The operation can’t be completed because some items had to be skipped. For each item, choose File > Get Info, make sure “Locked” is deselected, and then check the Sharing & Permissions section. When you are sure the items are unlocked and not designated as Read Only or No Access, try again."
When I follow the instructions in the error message, it shows that my user name has read and write access. There are a couple other items that are read only. I tried to change this to read and write, but the Sharing and Permissions options are greyed out and will not let me change them. What is the work around for this? I would really like to install the new firefox.
Thanks.Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default('''This will NOT delete profile info such as bookmarks and history'''):
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Can IFS be set up so that new files inherit the ACL of the folder they are created in
I realise that a file created or saved in IFS takes on the ACL of the User who created it. This is fine if users always save items into the same folders or belong to a single group. However, it causes problems when users need to save different items
