Due to the fact that I have to create a PDF on my server using the uniqid() function, I must subsequently refer to it as a PHP variable in the rest of my code.
The variable that I create for it is a session variable. I later refer to this session variable in a separate file, which contains my PHPmailer code. I use the following line to attach the session variable to the mail:
$mail->AddStringAttachment($_SESSION[$attachment], "attachment.pdf");
The mail is sent correctly with a PDF attached, called attachment.pdf. However, this attached file, attachment.pdf, is empty. This is despite the fact that the PDF on the server, which the session variable refers to, contains the complete set of data. If I attach the name of the PDF, instead of the session variable, it works correctly.
I don't know why the use of a session variable when attaching the PDF is resulting in an empty file being sent. If anybody may be able to explain why this is happening, or suggest an alternative solution, I would greatly appreciate it!
I'm guessing that $_SESSION[$attachment] contains the name of your generated PDF file, so what you are doing here is attaching the name of the file as an attachment, rather than the file itself. You should probably be using this instead:
$mail->AddAttachment($_SESSION[$attachment], "attachment.pdf");

I am trying to create a program to automatically download the attached files that are sent to us from a certain email and then transform the delimiter with SAS, of those csv that are attached to us and pass those csv through a flow that I have already created.
I have managed to create a program that treats the csv as I want and the delimiter that I want, the problem is that when it comes to automating the download of files from Outlook it does not work.
What I have done is create a rule with the following VB code that I found on the internet:
Public Sub SaveAttachmentsToDisk(MItem As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim oAttachment As Outlook.Attachment
Dim sSaveFolder As String
sSaveFolder = "C:\Users\ES010246\Desktop"
For Each oAttachment In MItem.Attachments
oAttachment.SaveAsFile sSaveFolder & oAttachment.DisplayName
Next
End Sub
I have changed the path to my personal path where i want the files are downloaded.
website: https://es.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/3747-outlook
The problem is that this code does not work for me, it does absolutely nothing for me and no matter how much I search the internet, only this code appears.
Is there any other way to do with SAS what I want? What is it to automatically download 8 csv files sent to me by Outlook, or has someone experienced the same thing as me with VBA?
I have followed all the steps about 7 times so I think the error is not in copying the code or selecting certain options wrong, in fact I had copied and pasted the code and later I modified the path where I wanted those to be saved. files but it doesn't work, does anyone know why?
I will be tremendously grateful, thank you very much for everything!
First of all, you need to make sure the file name and path doesn't include forbidden symbols.
The VBA macro used for a rule in Outlook is absolutely valid except that a mail item may contain the attached files with the same name, so a file saved to the disk may be overwritten (saved with the same name). That's why I'd suggest generating a file name with your own unique IDs making sure that DisplayName property is not empty and has a valid name what can be used for file names (exclude forbidden symbols).
Also you may consider handling the NewMailEx event of the Application class which is fired when a new message arrives in the Inbox and before client rule processing occurs. Use the Entry ID returned in the EntryIDCollection string to call the NameSpace.GetItemFromID method and process the item. This event fires once for every received item that is processed by Microsoft Outlook. The item can be one of several different item types, for example, MailItem, MeetingItem, or SharingItem.
The Items.ItemAdd event can be helpful when items are moved to a folder (from Inbox). This event does not run when a large number of items are added to the folder at once.
I have an endpoint, you can have información about products
{{URL_API}}/products/
If i perform a GET method over that endpoint i will obtain the information of every product
BUT i can also specify the product that i want to know about, i.e:
{{URL_API}}/products/9345TERFER (the last code is the id of the product, called SKU)
The problem is that if i want to make a CSV in order to update the information of different products i have to define a variable called sku in the endpoint so i will be able to pass the corresponding SKU
I want to create the variable {{sku}} but i do not understand how to do that.. i tried so many times and i failed, i've searched a lot but i do not really understand
Also, should i use ":" before the declaration of the variable? i mean:
{{URL_API}}/products/:{{sku}}
or simply:
{{URL_API}}/ns/products/{{sku}}
Can you help me?
I'm super lost :(
EDIT:
I want to perform a PUT method, i want to pass different values to the body and then.. send the request (it throws an error: 404 not found)
This is what i did:
PUT|{{URL_API}}/products/{{sku}}
body:
{
"tax_percentage":"{{tax_percentage}}",
"store_code":"{{store_code}}",
"markup_top":"{{markup_top}}",
"status":"{{status}}",
"group_prices": [
{
"group":"{{class_a}}",
"price":"{{price_a}}",
"website":"{{website_a}}"
}
]
}
CSV:
POSTMAN:
Your issue seems to be just a basic understanding of how data files work with variables in Postman, here's a simple example that will work the same way for you too.
This is a basic request I'm using to resolve the variable from the data file - It's a GET request but that doesn't matter as all we're look at here is using a data file to resolve variables. All you need to do is ensure the URL is correct and that you SAVE the request before using the runner.
Here's a simple CSV file created in a text editor. The heading sku in the name on the variable it will reference inside the Postman request. Each value under that is the value that will be used for each iteration.
In the Runner, select your Collection from the list (If you have more than one) then select the CSV file. Once imported, you will be able to see a preview of the data.
If that's correct, press the Run button. The Runner will then iterate through the file and pick up the sku value in the CSV file and use it in the request. I've expanded one of the requests so you can see that the value was used in the request.
What I'm trying to achieve is to intercept every write to a file and track the changes within the file. I want to track how much different the file content before and after the write.
So far in my minifilter driver I registered to IRP_MJ_WRITE callbacks and can now intercept writes to file. However I'm still not sure how can I obtain the content of the file before [preoperation] and the content after [postoperation].
The parameters that I have within the callback functions are:
PCFLT_RELATED_OBJECTS, PFLT_CALLBACK_DATA and I could not find anything related to the content of the file itself within these.
These are the operations that could change data in a file:
Modifying the file: IRP_MJ_WRITE, IRP_MJ_SET_INFORMATION ( specifically the FileEndOfFileInformation and FileValidDataLengthInformation information classes), IRP_MJ_FILE_SYSTEM_CONTROL ( specifically FSCTL_OFFLOAD_WRITE, FSCTL_WRITE_RAW_ENCRYPTED and FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA fsctl codes).
As for the content of the file itself that you just need to read it yourself.
If you mean the buffers as they are being written for example, check this out to find out more about the parameters of IRP_MJ_WRITE in the callback data. Esentially the buffer is at Data->Iopb->Parameters.Write.WriteBuffer/MdlAddress
Make sure you handle that memory correctly otherwise it will result a BSODs.
Good luck.
I'm evaluating install4j. The installer I'm trying to create uses a passwort text field. The value of this field should be written to the response var file as encoded value. Additional the installer must allow two installation paths:
a normal path ("advanced") that allows the user to see every screen and check/enter every value - using this path, the password field works fine.
a simple path that should use all values of a former installation that was succesful, to allow the user to start an update installation without seeing all screens.
Using the simple path (without showing the screen that contains the password field) it seems that at installation time only the encoded variable ("passwordField".encoded) is available but not the "real" password variable. Is there a chance to get the "real" password variable without showing the screen that contains this variable - maybe by using some kind of "decoding method"?
Thank you very much for your help!
Frank
Add another password component with the same variable to a screen that is shown on the simple path and set its visibility expression to "false". Then that invisible component will update the variable with the decoded value.
I need to send a vcal file via email. I want to send the file without creating it on disk.
I have the file in string format.
Here's what I think you are looking for in C#
System.IO.StringReader stream = new System.IO.StringReader("xyz");
Attachment attach = new Attachment(stream);
MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
msg.Attachments.Add(attach);
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Send(msg);
"xyz" should be replaced with the string of the attachment. The code above will allow you to add an attachment to a MailMessage object without ever having to retrieve that object's data from disk, which is what I think you meant instead of 'memory'.
Probably the best you can do (if you're using a graphical email program) is just save the .vcal file to a temporary directory, then pass that path to the mail program.
You can generate temporary filenames with functions like mktemp.
I'm not sure what you mean by not 'creating it memory'. Operating systems work by reading any file from disk into in-memory buffers. So, chances are that the file will still reside in memory at some point. Furthermore, when you pass the file over to the programme or tool that will dispatch it, it will also pass through some memory buffer.
