%SOURCE_PATH% and path to MSI files

Hi.
I have edited the path to a MSI file - and entered %SOURCE_PATH% - and made
sure the macro is defined.
It works fine for the users - but ConsoleOne keeps giving me an error about
an invalid path to the MSI file. Any tricks to avoid that?
The distribution and so on works just fine.
Best regards
Tue N.

I can't think of an easy way to fix this in a real good way.
It may be possible to set the windows variable "souce_path" to the matching
value.
It would be annoying as anything to try and work this way but its the best I
can think of at the moment.

Different versions Plugin and ActiveX with MSI file installation

Dear all,
we used the newest Adobe Flash Player MSI file with our software deployment tool. But we has trouble with two different versions of plugin and ActiveX installation.
Does any body know how that could be appear? Should we use now the .EXE file?
Best regards,

The EXE and MSI installers on the distribution page are always identical versions.
However, it seems to happen a lot that MSI installers are cached on some corporate servers. Make sure the caches are cleaned, or download the MSI from outside your corporate environment.

HT2305 I downloaded, and have two .msi files and one setupadmin.exe file. I click the latter and nothing happens?

I downloaded 2 updates (download only), and there's two .msi files and one setupadmin.exe file. I click the latter and nothing happens? How am I meant to do install these updates?

Sorry I forgot to mention I was doing this on a PC with Vista (the heading was Windows so I didn't bother to mention this). Anyway by trial and error I found that you can click on the .msi files to install them. The files were downlads of updates to iTunes and iCloud Control Panel.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page).
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

How to get uploaded file name and path in BefExportToDat event script

I would like to get hold of the uploaded file name and full path in the event script "BefExportToDat", as I need to extract values from particular fields. However I have not yet found a way to do this.
- The input variable "strFile" returns the .Dat file path in the Outbox, to which it is about to export the data. This is no use to me.
- The API variable RES.PstrFilename is returning nothing
I am using RES.PstrFilename in the "BefFileImport" event script in a different FDM application and it works fine, however I need to find a way to get this to work in the "BefExportToDat" event script.
Please let me know how this might be achieved.

I am looking through the API calls in FDM Workbench, but cannot see the table (tPOVPartitions) you mentioned listed. Is this the correct name? And do I just use the function listed in the object browser to run the query?
Furthermore (going back to my initial thoughts of using strFile), it appears that although the variable contains the .Dat filename and path, the actual file is non-existent when "BefExportToDat" is executed:
Error:
Error: Export failed.
Detail: File not found.
This would make sense, but it does make the variable "strFile" a little pointless since one cannot make use of the file in this particular event script. Do you please have any thoughts on this?

Separating file name and path

Hi,
I need to separate the file name and path of the file which I am uploading from my BSP appl.I am using SO_SPLIT_FILNAME_PATH ,but it is not working because this fm identifies '\' only from GUI front end.
How do I separate the file name and path in BSP ?
Regards,
Ananya

Assuming that you are using File Upload tag for file upload:
DATA: fileUpload TYPE REF TO CL_HTMLB_FILEUPLOAD.
fileUpload ?= CL_HTMLB_MANAGER=>GET_DATA(
                       request = request
                       id      = 'myUpload'
                       name    = 'fileUpload' ).
file_name      = fileUpload->file_name.
file_mime_type = fileUpload->file_content_type.
file_length    = fileUpload->file_length.
file_content   = fileUpload->file_content.
Data : filepath type string,
       filename type string,
       t1 type string.
filepath = file_name .
while filepath CA ''.
split filepath at '' into t1 filename.
endwhile.
In my sample code above, filename attribute will contain the name of the file uploaded.
Hope this solves the problem.

Ravikiran.

Question about pass file name and path to file write adapter

I need to pass file name and path to file adapter for write. I got partial answers from thread Re: Get File name using File Adapter , but seems InboundHeader_msg or outboundHeader_msg only takes file name, how do I pass file directory?
since I still have to specify file format (like xxx_%xx%.txt) in the file adapter wizard. Will this name conflict with what the name defined in InboundHeader_msg ?
Similarly, how can I pass a file name and path to a file synchread adapter?
Thanks,

Multiple Copies of iTunes.MSI file

I am in the process of cleaning up my older Sony Vaio system disk (XP Home), and noted I have multiple copies of iTunes.msi and Quick Time.msi files in a subdirectory entitled *'downloaded installations'*. Some dates go back to 2005. Is it advisable to delete older versions or are all versions/dates necessary to remain on the system? I also noted many ipod updater files from 2006. Are these necessary along with *restore.jpsw files to be kept? I'm hoping there is a concise file listing of whats really necessary to keep vs. install or update leftover files. Most of these are 35Meg+ so I have a lot of disk space being used right now for these older files.
Thanks in advance...............

I never noticed theose before! I had several. I got rid of them all after a quick google convinced me I'll never need them again.

Trouble installing a *.msi file on a folder using Windows 7

I'm having trouble installing a *.msi file created under Microsoft Visual Studio.Net 2005 on a Windows 7 machine. The problem occurs when I attempt to provide a directory for installation, but the installation wizard always defaults to the C: root
folder. I can always move the created files and folders from the *.msi wizard to a directory of my choosing and run the tool
successfully. But, I'm confused has to why the *.msi wizard always defaults to the C: root.
I have tried running the *.msi file in administrative mode using the various published methods but none of those methods are made available, in fact they are all disabled. I.e. right click the *.msi file has a disabled "Run as Administrator"
option. The properties under the *.msi file to "Run As Administrator" is also disabled. And running the *.msi file under msiexec as also proven
unsuccessful.

Hello Marco,
From your description, this issue is related with the .msi file, i am afraid it is beyond the scope of our support, this current forum is used to discuss and ask questions about .NET Framework Base Classes (BCL) such as Collections, I/O, Regigistry, Globalization,

File Name and Path special field

Post Author: puser01
CA Forum: .NET
I have a report created in CR 9 with the File Name and Path special field on the report displayed correctly. when i try to run it on CR XI environment i get this:
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\{4D86438D-54F5-4EEF-A0AB-05D5EB2BFF35}.rpt
How can i correct this?

Our installer names don't make it easy for the new user, or the seasoned veteran for that matter. Although both those installers have 2008 in the name, they are for entirely different products.
CRRedist2008_x86.msi
This MSI installer is used to install the runtime for Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 - version 10.5.
cr2008fp35.exe
This installer package is used to install the CR .NET runtime for Crystal Reports 2008 - version 12.3.
Since you've updated your development system to Crystal Reports 2008 you'll only want to use the runtimes listed on this reference page - http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/crystal-xcelsius-support?rid=/webcontent/uuid/10e38d93-7f07-2d10-beae-e739182f8ada. [original link is broken]

How to print the report file name and path and the last mod date

Good morning,
I am trying to print on the footer of the report the report file name and path as well as the report last modification date.
Anyone would know how I can do that? I have checked the doc but found nothing.
Thks. Philippe.

Did you ever determine how to print report name and report last mod date?
Thanks

I want to *use* very long file and path names!

This is really a plea to Microsoft...
There are several threads about copying or deleting files where the path and/or file name is too long.
Most have explanations of why this problem occurs. (depending on Windows version and application, the total length [fully qualified file name; i.e. C:\this-dir\that-dir\somefile.xyz] is limited to a maximum of 260 or fewer characters). This limit
But I *WANT* to be able to use very long file names and paths!
I can understand Microsoft keeping this limit - even while allowing UNICODE paths and file names up to 32k characters - because many existing tools will be unable to handle the longer names. This would probably yield a lot of questions/flames about
them "breaking the software I've used for years."
But it would be possible to have a system setting to optionally allow the long names. Since I'd have to manually set it, I'd know I'm potentially breaking existing software.
In my case, I'm backing up various file directories where some files are very long. With the server-side additional paths (e.g., client-name\project-name\backup-date\...") I occasionally hit files that can't be copied. Renaming is not suitable;
sometimes names have to match other file names.
I can zip them, create iso files, use a backup program that creates a blob, put them in a source-control system, etc - but I really don't *want* to do that; it's very convenient to have a direct copy of the directories. Each of these 'solutions' either
requires extra work (which could be scripted, so ok...) or doesn't work with the work-flow for some reason.
Microsoft, *please* fix this in Windows 8! (if not before...) This limit has existed for far too long!
And readers - please don't just repeat what's in the other threads (rename/use subst/map directory/etc) or flame without useful information. Thanks!
