Can Javascript's console.log() be redirected to a file ?
I am currently working on very simple node.js app that is hosted on Namecheap .
I can not see output from console.log(), but even being able to redirect it to a text file that I can examine by FTPing into my account later would be a help.
I tried using my web browser developer tools, but I can not see output of console.log() from the node.js app running on shared hosting by Namecheap. I can see it when doing so on own local developer machine.
Given that you're on Node, you can just call your application this way:
node foo.js > file.log
Instead of:
node foo.js

I have a Server App created with Nodejs using "ejs" view engine.
When I start the Server and is running on the port, I click the URL and it sends me to my APP with no problem.
When I try to do it with Live server is when I am facing issues.
In Live Server instructions says: [NOTE: In case if you don't have any .html or .htm file in your workspace then you have to follow method no 4 & 5 to start server.]
That is what I do and I get redirected to, please see image below:
Could any one help me with this issue, please ?
Thanks
You can see it here
i wrote app.listen(3000);
thats mean i can access from 3000 port on my browser.
like this.
Just write to your server.js "localhost:(your-port)"
and you are ready to go
I am using Google's Datastore (which is Firestore's support for the GCP) and the emulator to handle storage locally. Everything works fine as far as storing data. But there does not appear to be any way of actually viewing the data in the browser. I have a feeling that this is not yet implemented because the emulator is still in beta. Has anyone been able to view data in their browser? It should be stressed that this is the emulator provided by the Google Cloud Platform SDK and not the one that Firebase uses for its products. The emulator is started with:
gcloud beta emulators datastore start
As of January 2022
Debugging
Setting up Firebase Datastore Emulator (FDE)
The Firebase Datastore Emulator (FDE) emulates the Google Datastore in App Engine. This is meant to run on Java 8 platforms. When correctly setup, any Datastore operations are done locally and stored to a file called local_db.bin.
The documentation for using the Firebase Datastore Emulator can be found at:
https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/tools/datastore-emulator
It should be noted that this documentaton contains errors and is missing some important settings. To use Firebase Datastore Emulator, install the emulator by running the following command from a terminal:
gcloud components install cloud-datastore-emulator
Start the emulator in a terminal:
gcloud beta emulators datastore start --data-dir=fbdatastore --host-port=localhost:8100
The official documentation does not indicate to use the --host-port flag. If you leave this flag out, a random port will be selected. But experience has shown that letting the port be randomly selected can result in exceptions generated by the client library used to access the local datastore - even when the port is correctly set in the environment variables.
The --data-dir flag indicates the directory where the local database file is stored. Here, it is specified as fbdatastore but you can use any folder located anywhere. You should make sure that the folder already exists before you start the emulator. In the example shown here, no path is included. This means that when you start the emulator, the directory specified by --data-dir should be in the same folder where you are launching the emulator.
The emulator will only create the local_db.bin file when you initially write data to it. If you don't write any data, it will not be created. Even it isn't created, the client APIs will still work correctly when reading from it, typically returning null values for any entities that you attempt to access. No exception will be thrown if the database file does not exist.
If the --data-dir is set to fbdatastore as used here, the local_db.bin file will be created under:
fbdatastore/WEB-INF/appengine-generated/local_db.bin
After the emulator has started, you can verify that it is running but opening a browser window and navigating to the url:
http://localhost:8100
This will only display the text "ok".
Before you can start debugging the app, several environment variables need to be set. You need to open a new terminal window and execute the following commands to set several variables:
export DATASTORE_DATASET=[project-id]
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8100
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST_PATH=localhost:8100/datastore
export DATASTORE_HOST=http://localhost:8100
export DATASTORE_PROJECT_ID=[project-id]
export DATASTORE_USE_PROJECT_ID_AS_APP_ID=true
The client libraries for the Datastore expect the app id to be used. But it was found that using only the app id didn't work. The environment variable DATASTORE_USE_PROJECT_ID_AS_APP_ID needs to be set as well. This is not specified in the documentation.
It should be noted that the official docs show the following:
export DATASTORE_DATASET=my-project-id
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=::1:8432
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST_PATH=::1:8432/datastore
export DATASTORE_HOST=http://::1:8432
export DATASTORE_PROJECT_ID=my-project-id
For MacOS, this is wrong. The variables with values set to ::1 is wrong. Using this will cause exceptions and probably prevent the emulator from even loading. The ::1 needs to be replaced with localhost, as shown above.
You can just copy the 6 lines shown above and paste them into a terminal and hit Enter. But it is easier to just place these into a bash file and execute it. These need to be set before the local development server is started. The following bash file will set the environment variables and then start the development server:
export DATASTORE_DATASET=[project-id]
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST=localhost:8100
export DATASTORE_EMULATOR_HOST_PATH=localhost:8100/datastore
export DATASTORE_HOST=http://localhost:8100
export DATASTORE_PROJECT_ID=[project-id]
export DATASTORE_USE_PROJECT_ID_AS_APP_ID=true
java_dev_appserver.sh --address=0.0.0.0 --port=8080 --disable_update_check --jvm_flag=-Xdebug --jvm_flag=-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000 build/exploded-website
Replace [project-id] with the project id shown in your Googel Cloud Platform console (don't include the square brackets).
The address parameter for java_dev_appserver.sh is set here to 8000. You will need to set this in your IDE. Also, the port for java_dev_appserver.sh is set to 8080. You can set this to whatever works on your system and doesn't conflict with any existing ports used elsewhere. The last parameter for java_dev_appserver.sh is the location of your war files, which is the compiled app. Here, it is located at build/web-site. Replace this with the location of your own build files.
To view the datastore locally in your browser, navigate to:
http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin/datastore
Details on the command parameters used to start the emulator can be found at:
https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/beta/emulators/datastore/start
As far as I can understand what you want to do is to add data in the Datastore emulator running on your console and be able to see this data in the UI right?
Vieweing the data in the UI actually incurs in expenses for you because Datastore have to query the data to be able to display it on the UI.
I can still recommend you to create a Feature Request if you want to be able to see the entries form the Datastore emulator for free in the UI
Anyone working with Intalio|BPMS?
I'm trying to implement a process using the Comunity Edition, and I'm having a problem I can't seem to solve.
The process has an AJAX Form and if I go to ui-fw in the server using localhost everything works, but if I try to access the server remotely using the url it doesn't.
The iframe for the AJAX Form is pointing to localhost and not the url.
From the very bad foruns at Intalio, I've checked /tried:
deploy from the designer using the url
finding every mention of localhost in the process deploy dir, and also in the var/conf
Still no luck.
Any ideas anyone??
Thanks in advance
Ricardo, IIRC the form is deployed according to the settings you use in the deployment manifest. I believe you can also set an other host name in the deployment manifest to deploy to localhost, but declare a different host name for the form and processes.
Hi I am currently writing a Test script for an ecommerce site using Seleneium IDE, this is in a testing environment in HTTP. The issue I am having is the test payment gateway 3D Secure is in HTTPS so when using FireFox the browser displays the security warning message when I am returning from the payment gateway 3D Secure HTTPS to the site testing environment.
'Although this page is encrypted, the information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection and could easily be read by a third party.
Are you sure you want to continue sending this information?'
I have tried the various commands in the IDE for waitForAlert* and asertAlert* but this javascript alert just seems to over ride any of the commands I use and essentially halts the script until manual intervention is used.
I am unable to turn this particular alert off in FF from what I can assertain from various forums as it is too important to be switched off, I have tried in FF about:config
I can obviusly switch the 3D secure off to allow thee script to run, but I would prefer a complete user scenario to be tested as opposed to a test adapted to suit automation.
Many thanks in advance for your time and assistance.
I had exactly the same problem :
I use Selenium web driver to test against my local http server which sends redirects to https service (3DS as well btw ;). The problem is not with certs, but with this hardcoded warning of switching between https/http.
Based on the link from MacGyver's answer and this answer Key press in (Ctrl+A) Selenium WebDriver, I tested this and I can confirm it closes "Although this page is encrypted, the information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection and could easily be read by a third party" dialog:
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
alert.accept();
The other solution, seems to work fine but you'll get UnhandledAlertException with latest Selenium versions (e.g. 2.25.0) :
Actions a = new Actions(driver);
a.sendKeys(Keys.ENTER).perform();
Option #1:
The easiest way is to remove the option in security options for your profile:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=665552
Option #2:
Not sure if this applies to an untrusted certifiate or your security warning, but the forum thread seemed to fit. It requires that you use Selenium RC Server.
Profiles are stored here for Firefox: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox

Follow the snippet below from this link:

If using Firefox 3, see the following post https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Cert_override.txt
The solution I use to get past this security pop-up is only applicable to Firefox 3 browsers and might be more of an hack than a fix but it works.
Run the selenium test
Select "Accept this certificate permanently" when prompted by popup
Click on the OK button (it might be neccessary to have a pause after this because we need to open explorer to find a file now)
Open Windows Explorer and navigate to => "C:\Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp\customProfileDirxxxx"
This is a temparary profile created by Firefox which contains a file called "cert_override.txt"
Copy "cert_override.txt" to your temp directory
Stop your selenium server.
Open your "selenium-server.jar" file from "c:\selenium-remote-control-xxx\selenium-server-xxx" using WinRar
Drag "cert_override.txt" file into the "selenium-server.jar\customProfileDirCUSTFFCHROME" folder in WinRar (do not delete or edit anything in the .jar file!!!!!)
Close WinRar, start selenium and try it again :)
i created a web service, upload it to my site on a remote server.
i tried to browse it but i cant, i also tried to add web reference to his adress through vs08 but the same problem happened there.
Ok, based on your comment:
i didnt get any errors, only when
beowsing it i get a 404 page not found
error, the name space is
"http://www.poppetz.com/poppetz"; but
the service is actually in
http://www.popetz.co.il/Services/Poppetz.asmx
maybe this is the problem??? i
deployed it with vs08 through ftp –

The namespace of your service will have nothing to do with you being able to access it.
If you put a plain old test.html that echo "hello world" back to you and put that in the same directory as your service, can you access that?
ie: http://www.popetz.co.il/Services/test.html
Can you get access to the machine hosting the web services. If so, if you look in the IIS manager, can you see the ASMX in the web site you are expecting it be in?
If not, then start looking at the IIS configuration and make sure that web site directory is the same folder as you are dumping the web service files.
10x everyone, the server provider change some iis config and everything works...\
