Systemd - help with creating a service file

Hi, I am trying to make a service file to execute "devmon --no-mount --exec-on-audio abcde". Basicly I want abcde to run when an audio cd is inserted into a headless computer. I have tried some udev rules but had no luck with that.
I then found udevil and devmon, and it seems to do exectly what I want.
So Ive made a systemd service file and put it in to /usr/lib/systemd/system
here is it:
/usr/lib/systemd/system/abcde-auto.service
[Unit]
Description=Virtual Distributed Ethernet
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/devmon --no-mount --exec-on-audio abcde
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
I have started this with
systemctl start abcde-auto.service
and I see that a devmon process has started with the same arguments I gave in the service file, so all is good.
But now, I am not too sure about the "Type" in the service file, devmon starts abcde, but:
systemctl stop abcde-auto.service
does not stop abcde, only devmon.
Is there a way to setup the service file so that abcde will end as well as devmon?
*Edit
Ive read this http://www.freedesktop.org/software/sys … rvice.html but Im still not too sure. Dont really know what most of it means.

I use type 'oneshot' and add an ExecStop= to start and stop scripts.
Like here is the unit file I use to start and stop arno-iptables-firewall
[Unit]
Description=Arno iptables firewall
[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/arno-iptables-firewall start
ExecStop=/usr/sbin/arno-iptables-firewall stop

Help with creating a jar file

hi sorry if this is not the place to post the topic but was not sure where to post it.
i have make an application that has some images and a database but i would like to make a "exe" or somthing so that the client dose not have to open an ide and click run. they can just double click on somting. am not sure about how most of you distrbute your apps. can you help me please.
the client will be useing windows 95.
i know that a jar file can do this but i am not sure on how to change the refrences in the code to include the images and every thing. and how would i go about getting it into jar form
thanks nibur

You can create an executable jar.
Note that even if you do this, the user will need to have a JRE installed on their machine for this to run.
Here's how you can make this executable jar:
Replace all code that refers to the filesystem (like if you do "File f = new File("c:\myDirectory\file.txt");") to use resources:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/resources/index.html
Create a manifest file that has a Main-Class: attribute.
Then use the "jar" tool to create the jar:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/windows/jar.html
That doc has "see also" links at the bottom that can tell you about executable jars and manifest files.
If you're using an IDE, the IDE probably has a tool to create jars for you. In Eclipse, it's under File -> Export. Check your IDE's docs for details.

Help with creating a sql file that will capture any database table changes.

We are in the process of creating DROP/Create tables, and using exp/imp data into the tables (the data is in flat files).
Our client is bit curious to work with. They do the alterations to their database (change the layout, change the datatype, drops tables) without our knowing. This has created a hell lot of issues with us.
Is there a way that we can create a sql script which can capture any table changes on the database, so that when the client trys to execute imp batch file, the sql file should first check to see if any changes are made. If made, then it should stop execution and give an error message.
Any help/suggestions would be highly appreciable.
Thanks,

Just to clarify...
1. DDL commands are like CREATE, DROP, ALTER. (These are different than DML commands - INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE).
2. The DDL trigger is created at the database level, not on each table. You only need one DDL trigger.
3. You can choose the DDL commands for which you want the trigger to fire (probably, you'll want CREATE, DROP, ALTER, at a minimum).
4. The DDL trigger only fires when one of these DDL commands is run.
Whether you have 50 tables or 50,000 tables is not significant to performance in this context.
What's signficant is how often you'll be executing the DDL commands on which the trigger is set to fire and whether the DDL commands execute in acceptable time with the trigger in place.

Help with creating a form, I want to add a check box to enable me to unlock certain fields and deselect the block again

Look to the right under "More Like This". Your issue has been discussed many many times. The error you are seeing is because you do not have enough free "contiguous" space on your hard drive. Read the other threads that address this issue to find how to solve the issue.
Or, put "The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved" into the search box at the upper right of this page.

I need help with creating PDF with Preview...

Hello
I need help with creating PDF documetns with Preview. Just a few days ago, I was able to create PDF files composed of scanned images (notes) and everything worked perfectly fine. However, today I was having trouble with it. I scanned my notebook and saved 8 images/pages in jpeg format. I did the usual routine with Preview (select all files>print>PDF>save as PDF>then save). Well this worked a few days ago, but when I tried it today, I was able to save it, but the after opening the PDF file that I have saved, only the first page was there. The other pages weren't included. I really don't see anything wrong with what I'm doing. I really need help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't find it. I went into advanced and then document processing but no batch sequence is there and everything is grayed out.
EDIT: I realized that you cant do batch sequences in standard. Any other ideas?

Help with converting a Nero file

I have previously converted a dvd insert designed with Nero into a pdf using adobe acrobat in order to send to someone else. When I tried to do the same thing today with a new Nero designed insert the conversion wouldn't work. The message said adobe didn't support the program that created the file. Any ideas?

thanks for your response.
When I create a dvd insert or cd label etc using Nero the file extension is nct - nero cover template. The printer wants the file as a pdf as he can't open Nero files. I have version 9.3 of acrobat.

Subject: help with converting a Nero file
Nero is simply a CD/DVD burning application and should have no effect on the type of files that will eventually be on the CD/DVD.
What type of files are you trying to convert and exactly how are you trying to convert them? Plus, it would help to know the version of Acrobat you are using.

ITS 620 - how to create a service file for SAPGUI for HTML option

Hi,
We have the following configuration :
ITS 620 installed
IIS webserver
NTLM Authentication on webserver
SAP 46C
We have some reports that use the IACs option of creating ITS reports and we are able to create the service files using webstudio where we can save a service id and password so that when the ITS page is called, it logs on the user directly into the system.
Now, we are trying to create a new ITS page for a custom Z transaction and would like to use the SAPGUI for HTML option so that we do not have to use Webstudio to create and modify the HTML pages.
When I call the ITS page for the new transaction, it brings up the logon screen for the user, which we want to avoid. If I create a new service file for this Z transaction without any HTML pages then I get an error.
Is there a way to copy the WEBGUI.SRVC file to a custome SRVC file, I tried to create to copy it to a test file called ZTEST.SRVC for my test transaction called ZTEST and now I get an error.
thanks in advance
N.S.

Hello N.S.
You can create a service file, like ZSERVICE.SRVC. The parameters should be:
~webgui 1
~transaction ztransaction
~client 001
~login username
~password password
~language EN
The "~webgui 1" allows the ITS to use the Webgui to dynamically generate the page (no IAC needed.)
The "~transaction" is the transaction code of your service.
The "~client" is the client number.
The "~login" is the username.
The "~password" is the user's password.
the "~language" is the language for the users.
Note that the last four are required for automatic logon. If end users use a variety of languages though the ~language can be prepended to the URL to support different languages. (Leave it blank in the srvc file then.)

Help with creating a Quiz

Hey i need help with creating a quiz with scoring and all.
I need a helping hand so if you can get me started that
would help a lot.
Use the Question class to define a Quiz class. A
quiz can be composed of up to 25 questions. Define the add method
of the Quiz class to add a question to a quiz. Define the giveQuiz
method of the Quiz class to present each question in turn to the user,
accept an answer for each one, and keep track of the results. Define
a class called QuizTime with a main method that populates a quiz,
presents it, and prints the final results.
// Question.java Author: Lewis/Loftus/Cocking
// Represents a question (and its answer).
public class Question implements Complexity
private String question, answer;
private int complexityLevel;
// Sets up the question with a default complexity.
public Question (String query, String result)
question = query;
answer = result;
complexityLevel = 1;
// Sets the complexity level for this question.
public void setComplexity (int level)
complexityLevel = level;
// Returns the complexity level for this question.
public int getComplexity()
return complexityLevel;
// Returns the question.
public String getQuestion()
return question;
// Returns the answer to this question.
public String getAnswer()
return answer;
// Returns true if the candidate answer matches the answer.
public boolean answerCorrect (String candidateAnswer)
return answer.equals(candidateAnswer);
// Returns this question (and its answer) as a string.
public String toString()
return question + "\n" + answer;

Need help with creating a brush

Hi guys,
I wanted to ask for help with creating a brush (even a link to a tutorial will be goon enough ).
I got this sample:
I've created a brush from it, and i'm trying to get this kind of result:
but it's only duplicates it and gives me this result:
Can someone help me please understand what i need to define in order to make the brush behave like a continues brush instead of duplicate it?
Thank you very much
shlomit

what you need to do is make a brush that looks like the tip of a brush. photoshop has several already but you can make your own that will be better.
get a paintbrush and paint a spot kind of like what you did but dont paint a stroke. make it look kindof grungy. then make your brush from that, making sure to desaturate it and everything.
EDIT:
oh, and if you bring the fill down to like 10-20% your stroke will look better

Pacman should run `systemd daemon-reload` when updating .service files

Every time pacman updates a service like ngingx; I would like to restart that service to propagate the changes. However; systemd always complains that the service file was updated. It would be nice if pacman would do this for me. Is it possible to extend pacman in userland, so I can execute this command whenever a .service file is touched? Or should I write a pacman wrapper that uses inotify to detect this?
Anyone knows if this is currently possible? I'm also interested in feedback; I'll post a feature-request on the bugtracker depending on your replies

You could have systemd watch for changes to a relevant file or directory and restart the service. Not as neat but possibly useful if you haven't thought of it already.

I need help with creating some formulas

I'm not sure if anyone around here can help me, but I'm trying to create a Numbers document and need some help with creating a formula/function.
I have a column of amounts and I would like to create a formula which deducts a percentage (11.9%) and puts the result in another column.
If anyone can help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is an example that shows one way to do this:
The original data is in column A. In column B we will store formulas to adjust the amounts:
1) select the cell where you want to formula (in this case cell B2)
2) Type the "=" (equal sign):
3) click cell A2:
4) now type the rest of the formula which is: "*(100-11.9)/100" that is asterisk, then open parenthesis, 100 minus eleven point nine close parenthesis forward slash one hundred
The Asterisk is the multiply operator (times) and the forward slash is the division operator (divide)
now hit return. select cell B2 and hover the cursor over the bottom edge of the cell:
drag the little yellow dot down to "fill" the formula down as needed.

Help on creating a jar file

I created a game and I need help on creating a jar file.
I know the basics such as having a root folder, a manifest file and what goes in it, etc. And I know some programs like JGrasp can do the jar file for you, but it tells me it cannot find the main class. Does anybody know another program that can do that for me, or can i easily do it manually?
any help is appreciated

You can use jar.exe to create jar files.
Just type jar and hit enter on the console it will give the help message about parameters.
if you do not really need to put any spesific menifest information. Just zip the files using some zip software and change the extenction to jar. (Thats what I am doing most of the time)

Need urgent help with creating .war file ...

My boss gave me one day to create an app. that runs on Apache Tomcat 4.0.6. I managed to get it done, but now I'm trying to move it from my machine to the web server. Each time I try to create a .war file I get an error saying "no such file or directory". Am I missing a step here??
What I do is: go to the webapps/<appname> directory where the app. is located, type in jar cvf * path/to/application/appname.war.
I then get the "no such file..." message, then a message that says "added manifest" then lines on the screen that say adding: blah blah file. It goes through all the files in my app directory but I get no resulting .war file.
I'm so frustrated and confused at this point, any help would be greatly appreciated.

>
What I do is: go to the webapps/<appname> directory
where the app. is located, type in jar cvf *
path/to/application/appname.war. No need to create an intermediate zip file, or to use JDeveloper to create a simple war file.
You just need to put the WAR name before the list of files.
jar cvf appName.war *
