I'm a bit confused as to how setting a source works for a script inside an HTML file.
Whenever I use a script, I set the source to something along the lines of:
http://localhost:8080/module_name/module.js
However, when I go through the directory of my server, the location is actually something along the lines of:
modules/module_version2.0/module_name/module.js
How is the client accessing the source file when portions of the directory are emitted?
I think what is throwing you off is the configuration and root of the web-server/website versus the file system of the server.
The URL being read by your browser/client will lead the browser/client to the web-server located at localhost:8080 and the web-server will supply the browser/client with information from that website's root directory for any files/pages that are referenced within the html being used via the tags.
The method of configuring this direction/reference to the root or the document tree of the web-server, varies based on OS and web server setup, but is usually held in a files like httpd.conf; which is the file for Apache.
These configuration files can also have different file locations and aliases setup to create relative paths: i.e. you could have pointers for different locations within the web-server's document tree.
The path example from your server is coming from the perspective of a user account logged in to a machine using some method of exploring the systems local file structure. As such the root directory of that system is the lowest location in the file structure and therefore will show the full path of all the files and directories on that machine.
Where as the web-server/website's root directory in most likely located further away from the systems root.
Hope this helps.

in Talend(data integration) i am trying to copy local directory to remote directory but when i am running the job only i can copy files but not folders from directory.please help me with this job.
In my talend job i am using local connection and remote connection components->
tfilelist->tfileproperties(to store path and name in one table)->tmssqlinput(extracting path from last table)->iteration-> tssh(if directory s not available then create)->finally sending it to tftpput to connect and copy to remote directory.
when i am storing in one table using tfileproperties in that for files it will generate some size but when folder s coming the size will be zero,using this condition m creating the directory using tssh component but unable to create folders,please help me.
Do you get an error message?
I believe the output of the TMSSqlInput should be a row based, rather than iteration. That might be the source of the problem.
tMSqlInput docs
tMSSqlInput executes a DB query with a strictly defined order which
must correspond to the schema definition. Then it passes on the field
list to the next component via a Main row link.
With TYPO3 6.2, my site entirely lives in public_html/mydir, which corresponds to mydir.mydomain.com.
Now I would like to place file storages outside that subdomain / directory, say, public_html/otherdir.
So I tried setting the file storage path to absolute and /home/username/public_html/subdomaindir/public/, as such:
This would result in FAL errors in the backend, no file tree displayed anymore, and the storage going offline.
Can this be done, and if so, how?
And, extra question: If I just set a symlink with
ln -s /home/username/public_html/subdomaindir/public/ /home/username/public_html/mydir/public/
would that (also) work?
What kind of permission needs to be given to the Error.log file in the server (running IIS 7.5) so that errors are written to the Error.log file?
I have created a directory named ErrorLog and set up the listener in web.config like below.
The windows identity in play (depends on how you authenticate)
var principal = ClaimsPrincipal.Current; //normally this reverts to Thread.CurrentPrincipal, but can be changed
return principal.Identity.Name;
or
var windowsIdentity = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
if (windowsIdentity != null)
{
return windowsIdentity.Name;
}
The Executing windows identity Will need create permission in directory and write permission to the file specified in your EL config.
You can place file anywhere you like using config. Default for file without path is Start project directory containing assembly dll.
See In IIS the Application Pool used by the website. The pool determines the windows Identity. See the advanced settings tab for the Pool. The identity approach to be used is defined here.
I don't see your configuration example, but..
I find that it is best not to use Flat File outside of development. The Event Log or Database listeners are more suitable for a web application in production.
If you must use Flat File, you will need to give the account (for the application pool that is assigned to the web application) write access to the directory that the file should be created in. By default I think that is the web application's bin directory, unless you include a path in the file name in your configuration.
It probably depends on what context your app in operating in. The app pool thread is responsible for writing the log so give the read/write folder permissions for the same identity as your app pool. I think this is NETWORKSERVICE by default.
I'm dealing with an annoying problem. I have to make some changes to a large website, which source code is not under my control (sub-contracting). As usually I try to rebuild a local copy of the site to test my changes. The problem is now that almost all paths used in URLs for images, css, links etc. are relative paths pointing to the root directory, like
href="/style/main.css"
This is a problem because I develop on an intranet server and I put this project into a nested directory, so the URL to the project files is sth. like
http://myIntranet.com/checkout/project
What happens is that the paths from the first example don't resolve correctly. So I tried using the base tag to set the directory from which links should be resolved as
That works fine when the path is
href="style/main.css"
without the slash at the start, but fails when the slash exists, because (I think) the link is resolved from the server host, not from the URI in the tag.
So... is there any possibility to make the "/dir/file.html" links resolve from a root othe than the server root? Or do I have to manually remove all prepending slashes from the paths (urgh)?
Thanks in advance. :)
If you're doing local development on a web site you can do either of the below. Both involve moving your project in a base folder instead of working with sub folders inside your document root.
Virtual host on different port
In your web server, create another listening port and virtual host.
After restart, you can access your web server as http://localhost:81 or whatever port number you choose.
Virtual host on same port
Only create another virtual host (like above), but make sure to use named virtual hosting.
After restart, you have to add another entry in your hosts file (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts or /etc/hosts) using a simple text editor:
127.0.0.1 localhost myproject1.self.com
The above line should already exist, so you can keep adding more names to it:
127.0.0.1 localhost myproject1.self.com myproject2.self.com
Personal preference
I like the second option, because I don't have to mess with ports and stuff like Facebook API keeps working as you expect.
I hope this all makes sense, let me know otherwise.
I have a config file in my project that includes some info that is per machine dependent (db username, password, path). I understand that in this particular case, I could enforce everybody to use the same username, db path, and password to keep this simple, but there must be another way to deal with this problem.
I use mercurial, if you care, but I am ok with just a theoretical answer if you are unfamiliar with hg specifics.
A common way to handle this is to put a config.example or similar under version control and force the user to copy it and make any necessary changes. That way the user can pull down the overall structure of the file from your repository without overwriting local changes.
Alternatively, you could make your config file provide only defaults, with the option to source a subset of variables from a higher-priority custom config file (in the same format) which the user may or may not provide.
You'll want to use the .hgignore file to not include the config file in the repository.
This will allow everyone to have their own version of the config file.
Basically, you just want to add the relative path to the config file and Mercurial commands will ignore it. So the file would look like this:
config/dbconfig.ext
Edit
I just realized you still want to be able to version control the config file (misunderstood the question). So I suggest moving the parts of the config file that are dependent into their own config file and then applying the fix above. That way, you can still have the regular config information under version control and keep part of it separate for each person's machine.
I have per machine databases for my PHP projects. What I do is check the hostname at runtime. If it is one host, I feed it certain credentials. If another, feed it different credentials.
On some systems I create a list of credentials and then just go down the line trying them until one of the connections works. If the list is exhausted, the connection cannot be made.
I've never found a solid method for handling this type of configuration files. My final solution was to just maintain a version of each file and use symbolic links. That way each server has the same file path, but different root file.
Without knowing exactly what is in your config file, I'm going to assume your file has some stuff that is machine-dependent (e.g., db password, paths) and other stuff that is not (db hostname, maybe some paths relative to a path that is configured on a per-machine basis, etc.)
If that's the case, what you want to do is re-factor your config file so that you have two config files---one for the common stuff, one for the machine-specific stuff. Check the common one in, and add the machine-specific configuration to the ignore file.
