I am using Pentaho CE 5 on windows. I would like to use CTools but I can't make them show up in the File -> New menu to use them.
Being behind a proxy, I can not use the Marketplace plugin, so I have tried a manual installation.
First, I tried to use the ctools-installer.sh. I have run the following command line in cygwin (wget and unzip are installed):
./ctools-installer.sh -s /cygdrive/d/Users/[user]/Mes\ Programmes/pentaho/biserver-ce/pentaho-solutions/ -w /cygdrive/d/Users/[user]/Mes\ programmes/pentaho/biserver-ce/tomcat/webapps/pentaho/
The script starts, asks me what module I want to install, and begins the downloads.
For each module, I get an output like (set -x added to the script) :
echo -n 'Downloading CDF...' Downloading CDF...+ wget -q --no-check-certificate 'http://ci.analytical-labs.com/job/Webdetails-CDF-5-Release/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/bi-platform-v2-plugin/dist/zip/dist.zip'
-O .tmp/cdf/dist.zip SYSTEM_WGETRC = c:/progra~1/wget/etc/wgetrc syswgetrc = C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32/etc/wgetrc
'[' '!' -z '' ']'
rm -f .tmp/dist/marketplace.xml
unzip -o .tmp/cdf/dist.zip -d .tmp End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it
constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case
the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last
disk(s) of this archive. unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in
.tmp/cdf/dist.zip,
and cannot find .tmp/cdf/dist.zip.zip, period.
chmod -R u+rwx .tmp
echo Done Done
Then the script ends. I have seen on this page (pentaho-bi-suite) that it is the normal output. Nevertheless, it seems a bit strange to me and when I start my pentaho server (login: admin/password), I cannot see any new tools in the menus.
After a look to a few other tutorials and the script itself, I have downloaded the .zip snapshots for every tool and unzipped them in the system directory of my pentaho server. Same result.
I would like to make the .sh works, what can I try or adjust ?
Thanks
EDIT 05/06/2014
I checked the dist.zip files dowloaded by the script and they are all empty. It seems that wget cannot fetch the zip files, and therefore the installation fails.
When I try to get any webpage through wget, it fails. I think it is because of the proxy.
Here is my .wgetrc file, located in my user's cygwin home folder:
use_proxy=on
http_proxy=http://[url]:[port]
https_proxy=http://[url]:[port]
proxy_user=[user]
proxy_password=[password]
How could I make this work?
EDIT 10/06/2014
In the end, I have changed my network connection settings to bypass the proxy. It seems that there is an offline mode for the installer, so one can download all needed files on a proxy-free environment and then run the script offline.
I guess this is related with the -r option.
I consider this post solved, since it not a CTools issue anymore.
Difficult to identify the issue in the above procedure..
but you can refer this blog he is key member of pentaho itself..

You can manually install the components from http://www.webdetails.pt/ctools/ or if you have pentaho 5.1 or above, you add the following parameters to CATALINA_OPTS option (in start-pentaho.bat or start-pentaho.sh):
-Dhttp.proxyHost= -Dhttp.proxyPort= -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="localhost|127.0.0.1|10...*"

I'm using Windows 10 if it matters and I'm trying to feed a file to the "oeminst" app that will convert this file from .EDR to .CCSS. According to the app's website its usage summary is this:
oeminst [-options] [inputfiles]
-v Verbose
-n Don't install, show where files would be installed
-c Don't install, save files to current directory
-S d Specify the install scope u = user (def.), l = local system]
infile Manufacturers setup.exe install file(s) or .dll(s) containing install files
infile.[edr|ccss|ccmx] EDR file(s) to translate and install or CCSS or CCMX files to install
If no file is provided, oeminst will look for the install CD.
more info can be found here https://www.argyllcms.com/doc/oeminst.html
So far I tried this code:
C:\Users\PC>oeminst infile. [C:\Users\PC\testfile.edr]
oeminst: Error - Unable to load file 'infile [C:\Users\PC\testfile]'
I'd appreciate if someone at least could tell me if I'm doing it right or not.
P.S. sorry for the messed up text. Not sure how to fix it. It looks good in editing mode.
Try this : oeminst infile.edr C:\Users\PC\testfile.edr
Nevermind, I got it.
C:\Users\PC>oeminst C:\Users\PC\testfile.edr
I have an wget command running, but due to the website it regularly downloads "fake data". So, I am now downloading it dozens of times to get the correct content.
I now want the following:
use the wget command
check if in that directory are files <100kB
if yes ->use robocopy to save the >100kB files to another folder; repeat with wget
if no -> stop
I have the wget command and the robocopy command.
I only need now the function to check if an directory has a file <100kB and how to put this together into an cmd/powershell/bat or whatever.
How would the command for that look like? I have especially no idea how to check the files.
I am attempting to regularly archive a few file types hosted on a community website where our admin has been MIA for years, in case he dies or just stops paying for the hosting.
I am able to download all of the files I need using wget -r -np -nd -e robots=off -l 0 URL but this leaves me with about 60,000 extra files to waste time both downloading and deleting.
I am really only looking for files with the extensions "tbt" and "zip". When I add in -A tbt,zip to the input, wget then only downloads a single file, "index.html.tmp". It immediately deletes this file because it doesn't match the file type specified, and then the process stops entirely, with wget announcing that it is finished. It does not attempt to download any of the other files that it grabs when the -A flag is not included.
What am I doing wrong? Why does specifying file types in the way that I did cause it to finish after only looking at one file?
Possibly you're hitting the same problem I've hit when trying to do something similar. When using --accept, wget determines whether a links refers to a file or directory based on whether or not it ends with a /.
For example, say I have a directory named files, and a web page that has:
Lots o' files!
If I were to request this with wget -r, then I wget would happily GET /files, see that it was an HTML document containing a bunch of links, and continue to download those links.
However, if I add -A zip to my command line, and run wget with --debug, I see:
appending ‘http://localhost:8080/files’ to urlpos.
[...]
Deciding whether to enqueue "http://localhost:8080/files".
http://localhost:8080/files (files) does not match acc/rej rules.
Decided NOT to load it.
In other words, wget thinks this is a file (no trailing /) and it doesn't match our acceptance criteria, so it gets rejected.
If I modify the remote file so that it looks like...
Lots o' files!
...then wget will follow the link and download files as desired.
I don't think there's a great solution to this problem if you need to use wget. As I mentioned in my comment, there are other tools available that may handle this situation more gracefully.
It's also possible you're experiencing a different issue; the output of adding --debug to your command line clarify things in that case.
I also experienced this issue, on a page where all the download links looked something like this: filedownload.ashx?name=file.mp3. The solution was to match for both the linked file, and the downloaded file. So my wget accept flag looked like this: -A 'ashx,mp3'. I also used the --trust-server-names flag. This catches all the .ashx that are linked in the webpage, then when wget does the second check, all the mp3 files that were downloaded will stay.
As an alternative to --trust-server-names, you may also find the --content-disposition flag helpful. Both flags help rename the file that gets downloaded from filedownload.ashx?name=file.mp3 to just file.mp3.
I'm using lftp to deploy a website via Travis CI. There is a build process before the deployment, for that reason a build directory is present and pushed to the root of the ftp server.
lftp $FTP_URL -e "glob -d mirror build . --reverse --delete-first --parallel=10 && exit"
It works quite well, but I dislike to have a downtime / temporary PHP parse errors because of missing files on my website. What is the best way to work arround that issue?
My first approach was an option to set a temporary directory, but the lftp man page says there is only a options for temporary files. I still tried the option but it didn't help.
My second approach was to use "mirror build temp" to use a temporary folder and then replace the root with it. The problem here is, that I cannot exclude the temp folder while deleting the old files and folders like rm -rf *.
For small changes not involving adding/removing php files set xfer:use-temp-file should be sufficient. Also don't use --remove-first, as it causes lftp to delete obsolete files before uploading.
For larger changes I'd create a separate directory for each version of the site and redirect the web server to the directory using .htaccess mod_rewrite or some other configuration file. This technique will allow atomic switch to the new version (and back if needed). Besides, you will be able to do final pre-production testing of the new version if you redirect to the new version conditionally based on your IP address or using some other rule.
If you don't want to re-upload whole site for each new version and the FTP server supports FXP with itself, then you can copy old version to a new directory using mirror old_directory ftp://user#example.com/new_directory, then update the new directory using mirror -eR local_dir new_directory.
This is a zero downtown pattern - each placeholder should be replaced:
lftp $FTP_URL -e "mirror {SOURCE} {TARGET}-new-{TIMESTAMP} --reverse --delete-first;
mv {TARGET} {TARGET}-old-{TIMESTAMP};
mv {TARGET}-new-{TIMESTAMP} {TARGET};
rm -rf {TARGET}-old-{TIMESTAMP};
exit"
I'm trying to make a back up of my MySQL db and zip the file.
Every time I try to run this command...
C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24\bin\mysqldump.exe -u usernam -ppassword db_name | gzip > sites\www.site.com-local\backups\backup-date.sql.gz
All I get is an error saying "'gzip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file'
I've used the following resources hoping they would help but have done nothing
http://www.zigpress.com/2009/04/09/enabling-gzip-on-wamp/
http://dnhome.wordpress.com/2011/10/06/apache-wampserver-enable-compression-gzip/
http://www.dewebbouwmeester.nl/enabling-gzip-on-wamp/
All say the same thing but nothing happens.
Could someone please shine some light on what i am doing wrong?
I had this same problem myself with WAMP.
All you need to do is:
Download gzip.exe from here: http://www.gzip.org/#exe
Place gzip.exe in your PHP folder
That is telling you that gzip is nowhere your system can find. You can blame however you installed gzip.
Check the value of your $PATH environment (or system) variable. Then install a copy of gzip in one of those directories.
Yes, you have to put zip.exe in your wamp folder, like wamp/bin/mysql/[your mysql version]/bin.
Find or install gzip locally. After that directly in PHP folder create just gzip.bat file, specify the fully qualified path to existing gzip binary file and save.
For example:C:\git\bin\gzip.exe
It's not necessary to place gzip.exe in your PHP folder.
