I'm trying to create & save a new form using Oracle Form builder however, I get the error FRM-10044: Cannot create file.
The same thing happens when I open and save an existing form (.fmb)
I've check the folder permissions where the form is being save, it has read write access.
I've tried saving it into a differ folder and also tried creating a new folder but it still throws the same error.
I'm able to create and save a word, excel document in the new or existing folders (as mentioned-above) without any issues.
I suspect it could be something to do with the Windows Registry or System Configuration settings because I had recently shutdown/disabled so of the services in the System Configuration (using
msconfig.exe). Unfortunately, I don't remember all the options that were modified.
I've gone through numerous discussion forums, but still no luck.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
I've experienced the same thing. But in my case, i compiled the form on server side. The error appeared because it was remote-controlled by more than 1 person. One of the remote session was possibly locking the file creation. So I logged off the other session and try to use 1 session only when compiling the form. This happens sometimes when we're using an OS with multiuser and multisession capability.

I'm an experienced programmer, but this is my first MacOS app (on 10.15.2), which needs to read an sqlite db of the user's choice (potentially anywhere on the machine)
At first it wouldn't open the DB 'name.sqlite' file itself;
but when I used NSOpenPanel to let the user select it, that worked.
But then the query failed because sqlite3 (via SQLite.swift) was trying to open 'name.sqlite-wal'
os_unix.c:43353: (0) open(/path/to/dbname.lrcat-wal) - Undefined error: 0
If I open the db using the command-line client, and pragma journal-mode=off then the app works fine, but I can't restrict the app based on that - most of the dbs have WAL journalling
I tried turning com.apple.security.app-sandbox false in app.entitlements, but that didn't help.
I tried moving the db to the Pictures folder and turning com.apple.security.assets.pictures.read-write true, but that didn't help.
The unix permissions for db and the containing folder (/tmp in my test) are both good.
Because allowing the user to select the db via the NSOpenPanel allowed me to open the db for reading, I assume there's a similar restriction on the creation of the '-wal' file for writing.
How can I get permission (ideally without bothering the user with details of what a wal file is) to create the file next to the db?
Edit:
Following TheNextMan's suggestion about sidecar files, I searched again.
The WWDC presentation he (guessing the pronoun) linked shows how to use CFBundleDocumentTypes to relate extra extensions with NSIsRelatedItemTypefor NSFilePresenter, but (as far as I know) I'm not going through that route. I've tried it but it hasn't helped
I also, armed with the "sidecar" search term, found Access sidecar files in a Mac sandboxed app, which looked good but didn't help.
Even better I found the four-year-old unanswered duplicate of my question (if I had enough rep I'd mark this as a duplicate), SQLite and Sandboxed OSX apps, which includes a quote from Apple documentation App Sandbox Design Guide, saying
Note: In the case of a SQLite journal file, beginning in 10.8.2, journal files, write-ahead logging files, and shared memory files are automatically added to the related items list if you open a SQLite database, so this step is unnecessary.
So apparently it should Just Work™. But it doesn't.
Thank you for this thorough question. I encountered today the same issue as you, fighting the macOS sandbox restrictions. Similar to you, I've already copied the user selected (NSOpenPanel) database to my apps temporary folder (FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory).
But still I was unable to query the database file: sqlite3_prepare_v2 always returned the os_unix.c:45340: (0) open(/var/folders/.../myDB.db-wal) - Undefined error: 0 message.
As the database already is located in the temporary folder, which definitely is writable by our app (as we copied the database file!), we can simply create the myDB.db-wal file ourselves:
let tmpLocation = /// URL of the SQLite *.db file in a writable directory
let walLocation = tmpLocation.deletingPathExtension().appendingPathExtension("db-wal")
try Data().write(to: walLocation)
Et voilà: opening the DB is working.
I use pure commands of the sqlite3 library,,, the first time you install the app, a method executes the sqlite3_open() method. It supposes to create the database. It actually creates it in a user folder (desktop folder in the mac os x) as showed in the log screen. After this step, it creates 2 tables and saves some data, and it completes this, with success.
the second time you run the app, it intents to open the database with the same method sqlite3_open(), but it presents the error showed in the image with code number 14.
After that, I made some research and found that the new version of sqlite uses 3 files (.sqlite, .sqlite-wal and .sqlite-shm)... After reading that, I started searching on how to create those 2 additional files at the moment of creating the first file (the .sqlite file)... But I only found that all the tutorials copy those 3 files (previously created) to the references folder on the project, but they don't create it.
Continuing my search, found that there is an option to change the configuration of the sqlite in my app, to prevent using this wal option... I had to execute the command SQLITE_FCNTL_PRAGMA (maybe this is not used like I'm doing).
Please if you need more info that may help solving this issue please just let me know.

I would like to add a link to a local file in confluence. Obviously this link would only work if the file is locally on the users computer. I understand that.
If I add the address like this :
file:///D:/dev/ngs-frontend/src/pages/myPage.html
The browser sends me to :
about:blank
If I try to add it with quotes like so :
"file:///D:/dev/ngs-frontend/src/pages/myPage.html"
..confluence crashes!
How is it possible in confluence?
As you mentioned when adding the web link in Confluence specifying the file using the file protocol (file:///) you might face the issue that it doesn't work.
Obviously this link would only work if the file is locally on the users computer.
This is not entirely true. If you open the developer tools you most likely will be getting the error "Not allowed to load local resource"
As measure of security the browser won't let you access files from a different origin, specially from the users computer (this would be a serious security risk). Only imagine if you could access the files in the Windows directory from the browser, you could break apart the operating system in no time (or steal user data).
This is explained in here
If you put the file in the same server Confluence is running, then this should work just fine. However I believe you can save time just adding the page as an attachment and loading it (Confluence is pretty decent at version controlling in case you want to modify the html file).
Hope this helps!
I have created a program that runs off of an Access database on the company server. The program is running fine and I am about to release it to the office. Before I do this I would like to write a help file in case the users run into issues. However, I am running into problems here. In the program, each user has a security level that is retrieved from the database that allows them to have access to different features in the program. I would prefer that only certain users know about some of the features. In writing a help file for all of the features, I would like to have Microsoft Word read the security level from the database and only display the portions of the help file corresponding to the features the user has access to. I have tried using the following VBA code in the Document_Open event:
Set db = OpenDatabase(databasePath, False, False, databasePassword)
But I get an invalid password error (the database is password protected). I have verified the correct password several times now and still no luck. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Is there some other way to connect to an Access database using Word?
Why not include the help in a table with a rich text memo? Each section can be contained in a different record.
When creating such a table I generally have a help button that opens the relevant section and an extra field to allow annotation.
I have an InfoPath 2007 form that is behaving quite oddly.
I created it, published to a Sharepoint document library, running smoothly. Now, if I make changes to the form, I don't see them reflected after publishing. If I rename the xsn file to a cab and open the xsl, I can't also see the changes there, but in the Infopath editor I can see the changes.
I tried deleting the cache to no avail.
I also get an error trying to save the file: "User will not be able to open this form because of the security level it requires and because no alternate access path has been specified.". Even with the error the changes get saved, but that may be causing something not to be properly updated by InfoPath.
Any idea on what's going on here?
I managed to fix it by selecting Tools -> Default Values, in InfoPath.
I'm not sure what this did but after it the changes were properly published.
There is something definitely wrong with InfoPath 2007...
