Using Archivelink to remove OS files

I'm currently archiving and deleting Idocs out of my ECC system using transaction SARA. The files get written to an NFS server, and then the Idocs are removed from the database.
I need to set up a purge for the files on the operating system. A couple options I have are:
1. write a shell script and purge my files using a cronjob or some other scheduler
2. integrate into Archivelink
I do not have a requirement to move the data from the OS to another external storage device, however, I would like to purge the OS files that are greater than a year old. Has anyone used Archivelink to purge OS files, but not actually archive the files themsleves? I'm wondering if this is possible.
Thanks,
Ryan

What terms are you using in the *Filter Finder Items* action? Actions do not normally use wildcard characters in the text fields, so if you are actually using _.mov Copy *_ then that could be a reason. Also, you would probably need to filter the terms in the Name, since the _File extension_ probably did not change when adding "copy" to the name.
Using a term such as Name contains _.mov Copy_ should give the desired results.

Error 550 when using CFFTP to remove a file

I'm using cfftp to download files which I parse, then I need to delete the file from the server. (coldfusion 11 - development)
I can list, and download the files fine, but am butting my head into a problem that I can't seem to resolve.
USING THE SAME PATH AND FILE NAME that allowed me to 'get' the file - When I try to remove the file - I get this error.
Error: 550 file: No such file or directory .
(again - the path and file name I provide are identical to the path/filename -
if this is a permission problem, I can delete files thru Filezilla, using the same credentials - with no problem)
Here is the call to remove -
    <cfftp action="remove"
            connection="myConnection1"
            passive="true"
            timeout="360"
            remotefile="#myPath##fileName#"
            item="file" >

I'm not sure where you got the "This is not what the docs say" part. Looking down the list of CFFTP attributes in the CF11 docs that apply to a "remove" operation, those were the attributes I would have expected to need. Although I agree the examples could be clearer and a specific example of removing a file would be useful.

How does one remove temporary files from Safari? A friend logged on to her Facebook account using my iMac. Now I can't remove her e-mail address from Facebook. It was suggested to me that I try clearing temporary files from Safari but I can't find

How does one remove temporary files from Safari? A friend logged on to her Facebook account using my iMac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and Safari 6.1.6. Now I can't remove her e-mail address from my computer. When I open Facebook her address shows in the user button. I do not have a Facebook account. It was suggested to me that I try clearing temporary files from Safari but I can't find anything that tells me how to do this. Are temporary files the same as the cache? It also was suggested that I try clearing Safari cache. How do I do that?

Check Safari/Preferences/Passwords to see if the Facebook account is there. If so, select it and remove it. If you are still having problems, Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. If that doesn't work, Safari/Reset Safari.

Using Examine Document Remove increases pdf file size !

Hi,
I have Adobe Acrobat Pro v9.3.0
I've been editing a lot of scanned .pdfs - rotating and cropping pages.
All this has previously worked fine with v8 but now I find that Acrobat 9 is increasing the .pdf file size after using Examine Document and clicking Remove
For example:
original file: 16,861 Kbytes
file after cropping 74 pages (from A4 to A5): 16,879 Kbytes
file after running Examine Document > Remove cropped metadata : 79,914 Kbytes !!!
With Acrobat 8 this process would normally have halved the file size.
Am I now doing something wrong ??
Thanks in advance.

Hello - This problem is still here !
Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.4.2
I've got a .pdf created by an agency (so not a scanned image) which I want to make as small as possible for emailing to hundreds of people (I'll attach it if possible somehow ?)
I open it up when it's 331Kb
Click Document > Examine Document
Check the Metadata and Deleted/Cropped items
Click Remove
Click File > Save As and hey presto, the new file with all that stuff supposedly removed is 2,588 Kb
Surely I'm not the only one who's bothered about .pdf file size ?

How to remove preinstalled files of adobe photoshop from my mac mini so that i can install a new version of the same software.The previous version was removed using the app cleaner software.Could not continue installation bcoz of earlier files

How to remove preinstalled files of adobe photoshop from my mac mini so that i can install a new version of the same software.The previous version was removed using the app cleaner software.Could not continue installation of the new version because of the existance of files from the previous version.plz help

What "app cleaner software" ? I ask because installing Photoshop over a previous version has never been a problem. Perhaps your difficulty stems from another source, eg. "cleaner software" ?
If you look in your hard drive, at the root level there is a Library. In there is a folder called Application Support, and in that you will find a folder called Adobe. Files from your previous version are there.
However, I urge you to call Adobe support to make sure you are not doing anything that would mess up other Adobe applications.

Hello Tolab,
I'd suggest asking SharePoint specific questions on the

Using reposcan to remove files

Hi All,
I'd like to remove files wich are no more referenced in BO repository (no corresponding infoobjects)
So, I thought reposcan coul'd help me to do this but when I use the "scan" option, I have the following message for that kind of files :
"File <path file>\xxx.wid exists in the Input or Output FRS, but there is no corresponding InfoObject in the repository. Please republish the file. The application will not publish this file for you"
What I really want is not to republish these documents but permanently remove the files (xxx.wid).
Is there an option to force reposcan to do this ? Another tool ?
Thanks.
David

Hi,
as far as i know there is no parameter to delete these files.
You could try the "-repair" option to create an identifier in the CMS DB or go manually to the path shown in the outcome and delete the .wird file.

I used "my documents" for the profile folder, I removed the profile and firefox asked if i want to remove its file, and it took ALL my file except a few, all my photographs etc, are these now unrecoverable? as they are not in the recycle bin

I used "my documents" for the profile folder, I removed the profile and firefox asked if i want to remove its file, and it took ALL my file except a few, all my photographs etc, are these now unrecoverable? as they are not in the recycle bin
disaster, thanks firefox 1 year of photos lost

Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
I'm back to normal again.

I keep getting an error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space. What does this mean?

I keep getting this error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: "Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space." What does this mean?

Well it probably means exactly what it says... How much free space is there on your hard drive where the iTunes Media folder resides? I believe there is also an obscure bug that can occur when software doesn't read the true value of the free space properly, and the workaround is, perversely, to duplicate some content so that with less actual free space the software in question perceives it as more. I've no idea if iTunes is affected by such a bug.

Unable to remove *.log files using utl_file.fremove

Hi,
I want to remove .log files using the below command
I want to remvoe all the *.log files but its remvoing only one .log file
utl_file.fremove(location => dir_name, filename => log_file_name);
Any help will be needful for me

In the documentation for your unknown version of oracle you can view the definition of utl_file.fremove.
Everywhere it states utl_file.fremove removes a file, not 1 or more, and the documentation doesn't discuss the use of wildcards.
It seems like the question could have been prevented by reading docs (which almost no one here does), and you need to use Java to address your requirement.
Personally I wouldn't misuse Oracle to perform O/S tasks.

I keep getting blue screen and error message to remove this file from system. spooldr.sys

HP Officejet 4500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - G510n    w/operating system     Windows XP Professional
I installed the printer in February and the disk did not finalize the setup process. I went online and
down loaded the drivers and software that was offered from the HP website.
The printer works, but as the months have gone along, I keep getting updates for the printer and
the system needs to reboot and it does automatically.
Now I am getting a blue screen with a critical dump error message. HP error reporting keeps sending
the same message back to restore to earlier date before the updates. That worked for awhile. Now
HP Error system says that malware has corrupted and needs to remove system file     spooldr.sys
Is this in your driver software. Spooldr is the system that caches pages of data for printing in chronological
order....
Can I uninstall my software and drivers and change to the plain & simple, print and scan to prevent the
spool driver from loading to my system?

Thank you for your input. But, It is amazing that you can tell me that I was infected with rootkit.
Without information as to how to fix, your information is after the fact and useless.
I used the Safety Scanner provided to me by HP.  A full scan didn't detect any Malware in any files on my system. But the last screen dump provided the information that   spooldr.sys was corrupted and needed
to be removed.
Coming into HP Form, I did read on the HP website that my system Windows XP Professional was not listed
and noted that the software may have not been just what I needed. This was the reason for the question
about uninstalling and reinstalling less of the program. I really don't need my printer to print backward and
that is all I see that it is doing that other printers don't.
Besides, Kudos goes to the person from HP who sent the email, suggesting I used the HP Update software and drives recommended for my computer system. Computer, printer is working, back to normal and hasn't taken a dump since, I uploaded software and drives for Windows XP Professional.

Cant remove a file from a directory

hi gems...god morning...
I am facing an issue but i cant figure it out..
I have two users which belong to same group i.e. user1 and user2
Now user1 owns a directory(dir1) and the permission is 775.
Now user2 makes a FTP and places a file(fil1) into that directory(dir1) owned by user1.
The umask setting is 027 and thats why in that directory(dir1) the file permission becomes 640.
But when i am trying to delete that file(fil1) using user1, then it is not allowing me..
what can i do..please suggest...thanks in advance...

thanks for replying...
It really looks strange and all i thought it is a code problem..
Means the scenario i have told here is not from the direct access to the solaris box...
It is happenning when a batch job is being called from there. The operations the batch job does is to take the file, do some processing and then remove that file. Everything is getting successful except the last step.
But when I tried from the backend(direct access through putty) then it behaves normally.
So i am confirm that it is a code issue. I have told the developers to check the code.

I uses Time Machine to transfer files and program from old to new MacBook Pro. Aperture doesn't work. Every time I open Aperture the computer need me to key in Serial number. How do I fix it.

Hi There,
I purchased a new MacBook Pro Retina 15". Since I am using MacBook Pro and I uses Time Machine for backup files and program. Store saleman tell me I can retore my existing program and files from old MacBook Pro to new MacBook Pro computer. After files transfer it seem to be OK. But only Aperture has a problem when every time I open Aperture to edit photos, MacBook Pro ask me to key in the Aperture Serial Number that made me so inconvinent. Did any one have meet this problem and can someone teach me how to fix it, Thanks.
Nelson

Either the license files were not transferred or it has to be relicensed.
Remove and then re-install aperture. On an rMBP this should take only a couple of minutes.
