Using Amazon S3 with an rsync script

here is what i want to accomplish.
- use carboncopycloner to make backups to local hard disk (one remote located)
- in between my backups to the remote located hard disk, i want to back incremental content from my mac to S3 using a WebDAV client for Amazon S3 (client such as sdDAV)
now what i don't know how to do, is how to write an rsync script which will work off the date carboncopycloner was last run successfully.
i am guessing there are experts here who can write such a script in their sleep. anybody?
thanks in advance!

Using rsync to S3 WebDAV disk is not a good idea!
Given that S3 is all or nothing, i.e. if you want to change a file you have to PUT the whole thing again.
Every time a local file has been changed it will uploads the hole new file, not just what has changed. That means that if you are using rsync for doing regular backups you are wasting unnecessary bandwidth.
You can bypass this limitation using 3rd party gateway like: http://www.s3rsync.com/

I could use some hlep with a simple script to add a contact to a group

Aloha,
I am using Apple's Mail. I have a special email address set up (add-hiker@...) to add someone to my group of hiking friends in my address book. I would like to automate the process. Can someone please give me some guidance? I am a strong programmer, well, I was years ago, but I don't have much experience with Applescript. I'd also like to write a similar rule to remove a contact from the hiking group when they send an email to remove-hiker@...
TIA,
Thad

Save the source code below; and via 'Mail's 'Preferences' 'Rule' setting - locate the resultant save file as the AppleScript script to call when an e-Mail message is received by 'add-hiker@...'.
-- Code starts here.
property hikingGroup : "Hiking Group" -- Assumed name of 'Company'.
using terms from application "Mail" -- Focus on 'Mail' commands.
on perform mail action with messages tMessages -- Execute on a 'Rule' activation.
-- Obtain 'hikingGroup' account list. The list should contain only one entry.
tell application "Address Book" to set tPersons to (every person whose name is hikingGroup)
repeat with i in tMessages -- Cycle through received e-Mail messages.
set tSender to (sender of i) -- Obtain 'Sender's e-Mail address.
tell application "Address Book" -- Focus on 'Address Book' commands.
repeat with j in tPersons -- Cycle through every 'hikingGroup' account.
-- Add a new e-Mail message with a 'Work' label, and e-Mail address of 'Sender'.
make new email at end of emails of j with properties {label:"Work", value:tSender}
end repeat
quit -- Quit 'Address Book'.
end tell
end repeat
end perform mail action with messages
end using terms from

Edit the code according to your particular needs.

Using Amazon S3 as linked storage with OSX Server 10.6.7

Hello everyone!
I will be getting a nice Mac Mini OSX Server tomorrow. I'm not new to networking and I've done over a month of reading the PDF's here that are related to the server and software. I think it's a great tool at a great price.
My question is:
1) Is there a way I can use the S3 Amazon Simple Storage Service as secured linked storage space or SMB to the OS X Server?
2) Is there a way that the OSX Server software can pass both the S3 Access Key and Secret Key to S3 to securely access directories on the S3 Amazon Cloud?
I would like to use S3 Amazon Simple Storage as a secured disk space solution that would be reliable a quick. Am I asking too much?
Thanks!
JT

Would it be a good idea to have another computer link to the Amazon S3 then have the OSX Server link through that computer to S3?
Or would I have to create a script / CGI to authenticate to Amazon S3 to access the directories.
My goal is to use Amazon S3 as copy and playback storage.Like a hard disk connected to the OSX Server via a firewire or an Ethernet connection. Does the sound too simple? It must be possible.

Using the Netbeans GUI within a Project with existing Ant Script

I cannot seem to figure out how to use the Netbeans GUI in my Project with existing Ant Script. Is this possible? I have no problem creating GUI interfaces in a java Application, but attempting to make a new JFrame Form gives the error: package org.jdesktop.layout does not exist, and I have not been able to find a way around this. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

OK, I think I am on the right track, but I don't understand why I am still getting this error:

Schedule workbook using with Unix shell script

Hi,
Can we schedule workbook using with Unix shell script?
Thanks,
Jay

I can't imagine how.
1. You can schedule Disco workbooks via Disco itself.
2. You can schedule Disco workbooks to run and output in different file formats automatically via batch scheduler in Windows running Disco Desktop directly (or can user VBasic).
3. You can schedule Disco workbooks to run and output in different file formats automatically via a Java program running the Java Command Line interface.
Moving forward, Oracle has announced that with a further interfacing of Disco with XML Publisher, you'll be able to use Oracle Apps concurrent manager and scheduling. But that's coming supposedly at the end of this year.
And I think that's about it.

How can I get quiz scripts to pull properly.... Using CP 6 with Infosemantics Drag & Drop Widget

I'm modifying a course which is composed of 4 mini-quizzes with each section having a results slide which gives you your cummulative score. This course was created by my predecessor. The course was previously published, loaded to our LMS, and used by new hires to test their knowledge and abitliy to locate information. In it's original state the course works and the Results slides score and coaching messages display as they should.
Now that I need to update the course, I've discovered that the first section was built using a Drag&Drop widget. I didn't make any changes to the section built using the widget. Unfortunately, the Results slide for this mini-quiz section has become a problem when the user gets a score of 0 or 10 points. Instead of getting a message that reads, "Keep Trying!" (0 points) or "You're Doing OK!" (10 Points) they get a "Perfect Score!" message.
Notice the scoring is correct for the section it's the messaging that's wrong. Since this is only happening with this one part of the quiz I'm assuming that there could be something wrong with the widegt.
Any input would be appreciated.

Rod Ward was very helpful in aiding in the fixing widgets that outdated due to a version update. However, this fix does note resovle my original problem. In short, the widget Drag/Drop was never the problem with the scoring/scripting issue. Can anyone give me insight as to why a course that has used by our learner population previously would stop functioning properly.
Reminder:
1. I made minor edits to the course in question. none of my edits impacted the section that is not functioning properly.
2. Currently, learners would get a "Perfect Score" script if they scored 0, 10, or 30 points. "Perfect Score", in this first section should only display at 30 points while 0 points should yield "Keep Trying" and 10 points should yield "You're Doing Ok" responses.
Any Thoughts!

Rsync script - ignore some files, include others?

I am using an rsync script to backup files from one Mac to another. I have the "--ignore-existing" flag set to avoid copying files that haven't changed. However, there are certain files that I ALWAYS want to sync, regardless of whether or not they've changed. Is there a flag that I can add that will allow me to specify the files? They should be easy to run a match on, since they all contain the word "library" somewhere in their filename.

If I understand correctly, you're synchronizing two iTunes libraries with rsync, while iTunes is running on the receiver, and it doesn't immediately register the changes. That's the expected behavior. iTunes loads its library file when it starts up, and it doesn't expect the library to change during the session unless it makes the change itself. Copying unchanged files will have no effect on that behavior. rsync has no way of notifying iTunes that the library has changed.
If you want to share an iTunes library between two machines, you have three options: (1) make the library folder an AFP sharepoint; (2) use the synchronization features built into iTunes; or (3) if you insist on changing the library externally, quit and relaunch iTunes on the receiver to make it recognize the changes.

How to SIMPLY use the %DIMENSION_TO_SET% variables into logic scripts

hello,
I'm using a prompt of type "COPYMOVE" or "COPYMOVEINPUT". In this type of prompt, there are 2 columns of dimension members list, one for defining the "source zone" and one for defining the "target zone" of logics.
The left colum of the prompt (for source zone) feeds the variables %DIMENSION_SET% : %ACCOUNT_SET%, %ENTITY_SET%, %CATEGORY_SET%, etc...and these variables can be used in the logic scripts in *XDIM_MEMBERSET instructions for example.
The right colum of the prompt feeds the variables %DIMENSION_TO_SET% : %ACCOUNT_TO_SET%, %ENTITY_TO_SET%, %CATEGORY_TO_SET%, etc...and I don't know how to SIMPLY use these variables in the logic scripts.
I've found a tricky way to do that but I meet 2 problems :
- it is complicated
- the multi-info instruction (BEGININFO/ENDINFO) seems to be bugged as blank lines are added all the time in the code and sometimes I have to wait for minutes when I try to modifiy the package code through BPC for excel eData/modify package menu.
So the question is how to SIMPLY get the %DIMENSION_TO_SET% variables into logic scripts and use them ? Thanks, R.
Here is the tricky package code I use at this time (I build one function for each %DIMENSION_TO_SET% variable and I pass these functions to the logic) :
PROMPT(COPYMOVE,,,,"ACCDETAIL,ACCOUNT,CATEGORY,DATASRC,ENTITY,TIME,YEARS")
TASK(Execute formulas,USER,WS-WW\PlauchuR)
TASK(Execute formulas,APPSET,US)
TASK(Execute formulas,APP,SV)
TASK(Execute formulas,SELECTION,D:\BPC\Data\WebFolders\US\SV\PrivatePublications\PlauchuR\TempFiles\FROM_1561_.TMP)
TASK(Execute formulas,TOSELECTION,D:\BPC\Data\WebFolders\US\SV\PrivatePublications\PlauchuR\TempFiles\TO_1561_.TMP)
BEGININFO(%FSS%)
*FUNCTION TARGETACCDETAIL=%ACCDETAIL_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETACCOUNT=%ACCOUNT_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETCATEGORY=%CATEGORY_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETDATASRC=%DATASRC_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETENTITY=%ENTITY_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETTIME=%TIME_TO_SET%
*FUNCTION TARGETYEARS=%YEARS_TO_SET%
ENDINFO
TASK(Execute formulas,FORMULASCRIPT,%FSS%)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICFILE,D:\BPC\Data\WebFolders\US\SV
..\AdminApp\SV\_TEST.Lgf)
TASK(Execute formulas,RUNMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICMODE,1)
Edited by: ALEXANDRE BEDIER on Jun 16, 2010 3:15 PM

hello,
finally I've discovered that there is no need of BEGININFO instruction.
One can pass several functions to a logic with one FORMULASCRIPT task. The functions definitions have to be separated by instructions. See below :
PROMPT(COPYMOVEINPUT,%FTARGETS%,,"select source and target zone for category and datasource.","ACCDETAIL,ACCOUNT,CATEGORY,DATASRC,ENTITY,TIME,YEARS")
TASK(Execute formulas,FORMULASCRIPT,*FUNCTION TACCDETAIL=%ACCDETAIL_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TACCOUNT=%ACCOUNT_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TCATEGORY=%CATEGORY_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TDATASRC=%DATASRC_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TENTITY=%ENTITY_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TTIME=%TIME_TO_SET% *FUNCTION TYEARS=%YEARS_TO_SET%)
TASK(Execute formulas,USER,%USER%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APP,%APP%)
TASK(Execute formulas,SELECTION,%SELECTIONFILE%)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICFILE,%APPPATH%\..\AdminApp\%APP%\_TEST.LGF)
TASK(Execute formulas,RUNMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICMODE,1)
Then one will be able to use the functions TACCDETAIL, TCATEGORY, TACCOUNT,... in the logic script.

Runtime-Error after deploying a mapping with the generated script

For example a very easy scenario:
1. Create a table and a view in a DB-schema, witch ist registered as WB-target-schema with the following scripts:
create view v1(c1) as select 'a' c1 from dual;
create table t1(c1 varchar2(1));
2. Import the table and the view into a OWB-module
3. Create a mapping ‘m1’
4. Drag and drop view and table into the mapping
5. Draw an arrow from the view-column to the table-column
6. Save and close the mapping
7. Mark the mapping in the ‘Design Center’ and klick the ‘Generate’-Button
8. Save the generated script ‘M1.pls’ to file
9. Run the script in SQL*Plus, connected with the target-schema (without using the Control Center Manager)
=> very easy right now ;-)
10. Start the mapping with the following script will produce the following error
SQL> declare
2 v_status varchar2(100);
3 begin
4 m1.main(v_status);
5 end;
6 /
declare

If i delete or comment the four WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL-calls - it work´s fine!
But is this a good advise?
What exactly does the wrapped package ‘WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL do?
Thanks
jwehner

I just ran into the same problem myself. I used the same technique of saving the generated OWB script to file and then compiling it through sqlplus. When I used the "Deploy" option for the mapping, then the problem went away. So when OWB is deploying the code it seems to be setting something internally that doesn't get set when you simple compile the PL/SQL. I don't know of any workaround to this. I will need it eventually, since I don't want to use the UI to deploy to various test environments and production. Maybe the built-in scripting language is the way to go.

My 'run with administrative privileges' script no longer works - help

Hey all. I have an applescript that shuts down the computer that I made a while back. I pulled it out today to use it and it no longer works. Here's part of the code I'm having trouble with:
do shell script ¬
"sudo shutdown -h now" password "myadminpassword" with administrator privileges
On old machines this worked great, I would just put the admin password where myadminpassword is and it would work perfectly. Now though, I run it on my machine and I get the prompt to enter my admin username and password before it will shutdown.
Now this is going on a remote install so I need it to work. Any ideas? The machine is running snow leopard, but it seems to still work on an old leopard macbook pro.

Well, for one, do not use sudo in do shell script.
The whole 'with administrator privileges' part takes care of elevating your privileges. sudo has no place in do shell script.
Don't know if that's your issue, but it's the first thing I'd fix.
If that doesn't help, are you running the script as your admin user?
Nowhere in your script are you defining the username to run the command as, therefore it will attempt to run as the current user who may not be the same as your admin user, nor have the same password. You might need to include the username:
do shell script "shutdown -h now" user name "admin" password "myadminpassword" with administrator privileges

Using directory alias with a wanboot installation

I have setup a Jumpstart server and have been using it for a while without issues. Now I want to incorporate wanboot into the process so that I do not need boot servers in each of our subnets. Since the jumpstart directory structure is already in place and I have apache running on the same server, I did not want to have to recreate the whole jumpstart directory structure. So I decided to create an alias in the apache configuration for the jumpstart directory:
root@swamphenxb:/usr/local/apache2/conf> cat httpd.conf
<snip>
# ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
# ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
# documents in the target directory are treated as applications and
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the
# client. The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias
# directives as to Alias.
Alias /jumpstart /export/jumpstart
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/"
</IfModule>
<IfModule cgid_module>
# ScriptSock: On threaded servers, designate the path to the UNIX
# socket used to communicate with the CGI daemon of mod_cgid.
#Scriptsock logs/cgisock
</IfModule>
# "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.

I have the client configured to boot from the web server and when I attempt to boot, I get the following message:

It looks like maybe wanboot does not like the alias I am using, but I want to verify that before I move on to plan B. Thanks.

Help with a startup script for monitorix

How can I deal with a perl script that doesn't acknowledge a query for pidof?
$ ps aux | grep monitorix
root 1089 0.0 1.2 16280 6556 ? Ss 09:54 0:00 /usr/bin/monitorix -c /etc/monitorix.conf
So it's running... but I can't find it with pidof:
$ pidof /usr/bin/monitorix
Here is the /etc/rc.d/monitorix I've been using but that doesn't stop the program (since it has no PID).
#!/bin/bash
. /etc/rc.conf
. /etc/rc.d/functions
PID=`pidof -o %PPID /usr/bin/monitorix`
MARGS="-c /etc/monitorix.conf"
case "$1" in
start)
stat_busy "Starting Monitorix"
if [ -z "$PID" ]; then
/usr/bin/monitorix $MARGS
fi
if [ ! -z "$PID" -o $? -gt 0 ]; then
stat_fail
else
PID=`pidof -o %PPID /usr/bin/monitorix`
echo $PID > /var/run/monitorix.pid
add_daemon monitorix
stat_done
fi
stop)
stat_busy "Stopping Monitorix"
[ ! -z "$PID" ] && kill $PID &> /dev/null
if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
stat_fail
else
rm_daemon monitorix
else
rm_daemon monitorix
stat_done
fi
restart)
$0 stop
sleep 1
$0 start
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
esac

According to the man page, the -p flag will let you generate a PID file.
You have a few logical errors in your rc.d script and a syntax error (double else in stop). I've been using a template similar to the below in cleaning up a few of the packages I maintain...
#!/bin/bash
. /etc/rc.conf
. /etc/rc.d/functions
pidfile=/run/monitorix.pid
if [[ -r $pidfile ]]; then
read -r PID < "$pidfile"
if [[ ! -d /proc/$PID ]]; then
# stale pidfile
unset PID
rm -f "$pidfile"
fi
fi
args=(-c /etc/monitorix.conf -p "$pidfile")
case "$1" in
start)
stat_busy "Starting Monitorix"
if [[ -z $PID ]] && /usr/bin/monitorix "${args[@]}"; then
add_daemon monitorix
stat_done
else
stat_fail
exit 1
fi
stop)
stat_busy "Stopping Monitorix"
if [[ $PID ]] && kill $PID &> /dev/null; then
rm_daemon monitorix
stat_done
else
stat_fail
exit 1
fi
restart)
$0 stop
sleep 1
$0 start
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
esac
please also fix the PKGBUILD:
install=('readme.install')
This is not valid, and pacman 4 will not let you declare install as an array.

Text Messaging in Japanese (or other language with non-Roman script)

Is it possible to send/receive text messages written in non-Roman characters with Verizon?
More specifically, I'm using a Droid 2 with Verizon, and I'm trying to text a friend in Japanese. She has an iPhone (AT&T), and is physically in the U.S. (so I'm not asking about international text messaging). I've already installed apps on my Droid (e.g. OpenWNN, or Simeji) to input Japanese, which work fine in and of themselves, and the Droid of course displays Japanese text or other languages just fine on the Browser or in E-mails.
However, I'm having lots of trouble with Text Messaging. When I send a message containing Japanese text (typed in perfectly fine with OpenWNN or whatever), she either never gets the message, or the text comes out unreadable (as ???????). Messages with a mix of Roman and non-Roman characters typically show the Roman characters ok, but the non-Roman ones (i.e. Japanese) are garbled. If she sends me a message containing any non-Roman characters, I generally don't get the message at all (i.e. not even garbled-- just no message at all). This deficiency seems to be specific to Text Messaging, as far as I can tell. I can send and receive e-mails containing Japanese just fine, read foreign language web pages, and type in Japanese into search boxes on those web pages and so on with the Droid. However, sending an e-mail message to (myphone#)@vtext.com, predictably, results in any Japanese text being garbled, though Roman characters come through just fine.
Is this perhaps something specific to Verizon's network? Or is text messaging in non-Roman scripts just inherently impossible? My friend says she knows others who can successfully text in non-Roman scripts (e.g. Korean Hangul, Japanese Kana or Kanji), and claims some of these folks are Verizon customers too. A search on droidforums.com yielded someone who supposedly could text in Korean within Verizon. So, I'm hoping this is possible, and I'm just missing something. However, this is perhaps all secondhand information and rumor.
(Incidentally, I know for certain that messaging with non-Roman scripts is possible in general. During my last vacation in Japan, I rented a phone there, and could send messages in English or Japanese scripts. However, I believe the phones there actually have their own e-mail addresses, and so the service there is more like regular e-mail-- my understanding is that text messaging as we know it in the U.S. is a distinct technology, though I could well be wrong.)
So, to restate my question: is it possible to text message with non-Roman scripts with Verizon? Has anyone out there done this successfully-- if so what did you do, or what app did you use? Or is it in fact impossible? (e.g. Maybe text messaging here only uses 7 or 8 bits, instead of 14 or 16 needed to encode all the various Asian, European, and other scripts?)
Thanks for any help available.

I'm trying to figure this out as well, but my understanding on the matter is that Verizon's CDMA network uses unicode which will display, roman characters, loa, thai, and serveral other languages, but not hirigana, kanji, katakana, or simplified or traditional chinese. The Romaji should work however. It would be nice to hear some input from a Verizon rep on the subject, because like you my info is all second hand.
If my understanding is correct, the simple answer is no, it's not possible.

Photoshop Elements 6/7/8 (Windows) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
John R. Ellis
Last updated January 21, 2011
Copyright 2008-10 by John R. Ellis
As of June 2010 I no longer maintain this FAQ. I’ve migrated to Lightroom 3, which I use for all my organizing and most of my editing (I still use the Photoshop Elements Editor for more involved editing). Adobe has clearly decided not to invest sufficient resources for properly maintaining the Photoshop Elements Organizer– see my Amazon review of PSE 8. Lightroom is marketed to professionals and prosumers with tens of thousands of photos who demand adequate organizational capabilities, whereas Photoshop Elements is marketed to consumers, most of whom do not want or use the Organizer.
This page captures my answers to frequent questions about Photoshop Elements 6, 7, and 8 (Windows). It’s mostly about the Organizer, since I know the Organizer much better than the Editor.
The versions to which each FAQ applies are indicated with the notation [PSE 6, 7, 8]. If I’m not sure whether something applies to a version, it will be indicated with a question mark, e.g. [PSE 7, 8?].
If you have corrections or suggestions, please email them to john at johnrellis.com.
