Stuffit expander - can't create archives, get error folder write protected

I'm going nuts trying to figure out this problem. I figured it out on one user's machine over a month ago, but forgot what I did. I've installed Stuffit Deluxe 12 for a user. When she drags a folder on Stuffit, she gets an error that says "The destination folder "Desktop" is currently write-protected." Please select another destination."
I've repaired permissions TWICE. I made sure the entire user's folder had the correct permissions and propagated them. This happens whether I try to save to the desktop, documents, whatever. I don't know what else to do.
I've removed all traces of Stuffit and re-installed and still get the same problem.

Repairing permissions does not touch the Home folder or its content. Check the permissions on the Home folder as well as the Desktop folder within. You can use Get Info to see the settings as well as change them if necessary.
Home folder permissions:
Owner=username with Read/Write privileges
Group=admin with Read-only or Read/Write privileges
Everyone=Read-only
Desktop folder permissions:
Owner=username with Read/Write privileges
Everyone=No Access

  • Crystal Server 2013: How to troubleshoot "Can not create temp file---- Error code:-2147215357"

    We have a Java7 web app, which generate PDF report by calling Crystal Server 2013 SP4.
    The app is being deployed on many different servers. We sometimes got the error below when generating report:
    com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: Can not create temp file---- Error code:-2147215357 [CRSDK00000615] Error code name:internal
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.controllerExportInternal(PrintOutputController.java:280)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:152)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:130)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.PrintOutputController.export(PrintOutputController.java:113)
    Problem is, this seems to be  a pretty generic exception. It could be caused by many different reasons.
    e.g. network connection problem, wrong DB login, wrong folder path, lack of folder access right, etc.
    Each time we could only guess what's wrong.
    We are running into it again, and this time everything seems correctly configured so far.
    We wonder if there are more info we can get to troubleshoot? For example, any log file of Crystal Server we should look into? Or does Crystal Server has debug mode which prints more details to tell us what goes wrong?

    Hi Henry,
    I believe you are using RAS SDKs to export the reports to PDF.
    Apply trace on RAS server and check what you find in RAS logs.
    Check whether you can see timeout error is RAS logs. Usually if connection is lost and the RAS server no more have the session to write to the temp directory, we do see these errors.
    Also, does the account that runs RAS have permissions to create a file in RAS's default temp directory? Are you getting any out of memory or out of disk space exceptions on App server or RAS, tracing RAS server is the way to move forward.
    Thanks,

    Yes
    >>Apply trace on RAS server and check what you find in RAS logs.
    >>Check whether you can see timeout error is RAS logs.
    How to configure tracing, and where are RAS logs? Is it configured in CMC --> Servers --> Crystal Report Services?
    >>Also, does the account that runs RAS have permissions to create
    >>a file in RAS's default temp directory?
    Pretty sure yes.
    >> Are you getting any out of memory or out of disk space exceptions

    Not on App server.
    For RAS, that's the problem, I am not sure where to look.......

    Hi,
    We face the same problem with some BI4 reports.
    The same report works well with the "Crystal Reports Viewers API", as used in Infoview, but not with the "Report Application Server (RAS) API".
    This error appears after some time working on a report. If we reproduce the same report, but from zero, no problem.
    Hope it can help.

  • While creating RFx getting error

    hi
    we are using SRM 7 SP13 classic scenario.while creating RFx getting error.
    Line 0001: Item type 'Service' not allowed for this Item.
    i created SC with free text and selected type -service .when purchaser is trying to create RFx getting error like
    Line 0001: Item type 'Service' not allowed for this Item
    please suggest if anyone aware about issue.
    Regards
    Vijay Patil

    Hi Vijay ,
    SRM does not support hierarchy in service for operational documents like PO, contract, confirmation and invoice in SRM 7. It does support hierarchy in service only for RFx doucments. You need to activate the hierarchy template for SRM for that.
    This error comes from the validation regarding item process type. You could trace the error by setting an external breakpoint at class /sappssrm/cl_ih_cust_prov, method: get_allowed_ipt.
    Refer Below notes and you would be able to find a solution :
    OSS note Note 1267549 - SRM7.0: Creation of new transaction types for RFx and Quote.
    Note 1428404 - Hierarchy template for a process type historic data maintain

  • Can't create archive from file menu

    Hello,
    I can't create 'archive' (tar.gz) from file menu in Color (Save Archive As...).
    I don't have authorization problem on my folder project; i can create myself a tar.gz archive in the folder Archive of my Color's project.
    The system.log file said:
    Jul 16 09:45:51 fcp1 [0x0-0x1e01e].com.apple.color[215]: tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive

    some other users report difficulties, crashes, freeze-ups and very long save times associated with the Operating System and Finder. There is apparently some background file compression utility that may be interfering with your save routine. There are a couple of threads related to this issue on this forum, so a bit of searching may yield a solution.
    I haven't encountered it in nearly four years of day-to-day with three separate systems in either Tiger or Leopard. Suffice to say that if you have any third-party whiz-bang utilities running, COLOR is very vulnerable to OS corruption as it is a stripped-out race car that doesn't expect or tolerate much else when it comes to sharing the computer.

    is there another way i can download the update? it just never work, tried multiple time

    The most common causes are:
    Your antivirus, firewall or router security is blocking access to Apple's servers - try temporarily disabling them - if you have Kaspersky this is definitely the problem
    At some time in the past you used this computer to jailbreak, unlock or otherwise hack ANY iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad - if this applies to you your hosts file is corrupt and you will have to edit it and remove any lines that contain "gs.apple.com"

    42001 Presenter Publish Error Can't create uploader unknown

    Well I guess that about says it all. I cannot publish ANY of
    my Presenter files to Connect Pro... Do I need to do a Presenter
    reinstall?

    I know this is from 2010 but I just started with a company that uses this software and we are receiving this same error.  I tried doing the regsvr32 ppsuplo.dll  but came back with the following result "  The module "ppsuplo.dll " failed to load.  Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files.  The specified module could not be found.  I then looked in the program files folder for presenter and found the file right there.  Then tried using the repair option without any luck.  Anyone have an idea of what else we can do?

  • Had to uninstall Firefox, now I can't reinstall. Get error message "Can not find archive file." Please help!

    I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!

    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:
    #*'''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't restore from Create Archive of Applications Folder

    Hello. I never fully recovered from reverting to Panther from Tiger (see re:Major Problems in Feb. 2006). I think that I had some leftover Tiger apps or cache. So, I did another clean install, starting with OS 10.2.3 and then updating to 10.3.9. I think that I avoided all problems, everything is running smoothly, except...
    I wanted a backup of my Applications folder so that I could drag my non-Apple apps back into it after the restore. I thought that I would compare the Application folder after the system re-install with my copy of the folder and it would be easy to just drag my apps into the system folder. I used the File/Create Archive menu item on my Application folder, and yes, it took a long time and is huge, but it worked. The problem is that I can't unzip it. The error that I get is "Unable to unarchive "Applications.zip" into /MacFileCurrent". (Error 17 - File exists.)". There are several versions of Turbo-Tax and a few of Metrowerks Codewarrior, but they have different names. I tried connecting my iMac via firewire to a different computer (running Tiger) in case it needed to be on a different drive than my system drive, but that didn't help. Can I unzip the file?
    Thanks in advance.

    I searched for BOMArchiveHelper - the default application to open zipped files - in the discussion forums and found an entry that said that it is limited in capabilities. The entry suggested using Stuffit, which I downloaded, and it worked. I have my applications back and the ones that I have tested work fine.
    This is a great resource.

  • Adding a file to an already created Archive throws error

    Hello Experts,
    In one of the WLST python scripts, we had a piece of code which was adding a file to an already created archive. Below is the code snippet:
    import zipfile
    try:
    conn='1.properties'
    fileName='/home/pbnagara/temp/Zip1.par'
    myZip = zipfile.ZipFile(fileName, mode='a')
    myZip.write(conn)
    myZip.close()
    except Exception:
    print 'Exception occurred while writing to Zip file: ' + fileName
    --> it makes use of the standard python module [zipfile] to add a file to the archive.
    This code has started failing [for some strange unknown reason] when we upgraded.
    The same script works fine in a standalone mode[using the system's default python packages] but fails only when run within WLST.
    Does WLST package a different set of zipfile libraries? Can anyone point out what might be going wrong here?

    Hi Allyson,
    You are trying to add a (subclass of) JFrame to a JPanel...that won't work, of course, and Java tells you so.
    You need to create a ChartPanel to display your chart. This is a subclass of JComponent, which you can happily add to a JPanel (or any other container).
