This is my code:
filename_date = strcat('Maayanei_yeshua-IC_',file_date,'.pdf')
filenamepdf = strcat(filename,'.pdf')
rename(['C:\Users\user\Desktop\' filenamepdf],['C:\Users\user\Desktop\' filename_date]);
And i get the error:
<??? Error using ==> movefile The system cannot find the path specified.>
or
<??? Undefined function or method 'rename' for input arguments of type 'char'.>
I checked hundreds of times and the file is there... i don't know why it can't find it, any help ?
Use the command
doc rename
to discover that rename is for working with ftp servers, which you are not doing here. What you want is the command movefile
Use the help window brought up by helpwin to look up all the commands you are using.
Also, from the command prompt try
dir(['C:\Users\user\Desktop\' filenamepdf])
to verify the file you want to move exists.

I'm using preaty old Matlab (version 7.1.0.246 (R14) Service Pack 3) :(
I have some toolbox I was provided which I'd like to use. When I try to execute the function, I'm getting Undefined command/function 'test' (my function is test and stored in test.m and the file located in my current working directory).
If I place the file in C:\Temp\ and execute which test, I'm getting the complete file path (C:\Temp\test.m).
If I place the file in C:\Temp\MyMap\ and execute which test, I'm getting the complete file path('C:\Temp\MyMap\test.m') and additional comment %Has no license available.
If I use following one
if exist('test')
test(...)
end
It solves the issue. However, as mentioned previously, its a toolbox and contains many functions. I don't have time (and want to) apply the workaround on all the files/functions.
Any suggestion how this could be solved?
I am new to image processing and what I am trying to do is resize an image and store it in tif format, but command window reports an error saying "you don't have the permission to write"
my code is imwrite(B,'myNewFile.tif');
and after running it shows
Error using imwrite (line 10)
Unable to open file "myNewFile.tif" for writing. You may not have write permission.
Do I have to create a file by the name 'myNewFile' before writing the above code?
As the error message states, you are trying to write the file myNewFile.tif to the current working directory. However, you do not have writing permission in the current working direcoty. This is an OS issue, not a Matlab one.
What you can do is change the current working directory (using cd command) and write the image to a different folder where you do have writing permissions.
Alternatively, you can supply a full path to the image file name, directing it to a folder where you have writing permissions.
imwrite( B, fullfile( '/path/to/where/you/can/write', 'myNewFile.tif' ) );
Here are links to the description of some Matlab commands that might help you:
pwd can be used to check what is your current working directory.
You can use cd to change the current working directory.
fullfile helps you construct file names and paths in a generic way without worrying about OS pecularities.
From inside a .bat file, I m issuing this command
xcopy\s Folder1\folder2\folder3\blah-blah Folder1\temp\folder2\folder3
But I get the error:
The system cannot find the path specified.
I tried copying the same line to command line and tried it:
Then, I get the error, xcopys command not found.
If I try to use xcopy instead of xcopy/s, I get error:
File not found - Folder1folder2folder3blah-blah
If I use xcopy command with backward slash on command line: Invalid number of parameters.
I tried enclosing paths in quotes, but it does not help.
My file names don't have spaces in them but they do have -
I have checked the path of source and destination and they exist
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
I guess you're running under windows, so you have to use forward slashes for arguments.
xcopy/s is something very different from xcopy\s. The later searches for an application called s in a subfolder called xcopy. To further avoid confusion, separate the program from its argument(s) with spaces.
Hallo everyone once again,
I did various searches but couldn't gind a suitable/applicable answer to the simple problem below:
On pgAdminIII (Windows 7 64-bit) I am running the following command using SQL editor:
COPY public.Raw20120113 FROM 'D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv';
I tried many different variations for the path name and verified the path, but I keep getting:
ERROR: could not open file "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" for reading: No such file or directory
Any suggestions why this happens?
Thank you all in advance
Petros
UPDATE!!
After some tests I came to the following conclusion: The reason I am getting this error is that the path includes some Greek characters. So, while Windows uses codepage 1253, the console is using 727 and this whole thing is causing the confusion. So, some questions arise, you may answer them if you like or prompt me to other questions?
1) How can I permanently change the codepageof the console?
2) How can I define the codepage is SQL editor?
Thank you again, and sorry if the place to post the question was inappropriate!
Try DIR "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" from command line and see if it works - just to ensure that you got the directory, file name, extension etc correct.
The problem is that COPY command runs on server so it takes the path to the file from the server's scope.
To use local file to import you need to use \COPY command. This takes local path to the file into account and loads it correctly.
Setup:
Windows 7 Enterprise.
Matlab 7.10.0 (R2010a).
mcc compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express.
What's happening:
My project runs fine when running it through Matlab, but when trying to run the .exe through the command prompt after using mcc to compile, the command prompt generates an error.
The mcc command I issue is:
mcc -m -v STARTUP1.m -o EXE_REDUC
The error I receive in the command prompt is:
??? Error using ==> textscan
Invalid file identifier. Use fopen to generate a valid file identifier.
I have a file called LoadXLS.m that loads and reads a .csv file using:
fid = fopen(file,'r');
temp_data = textscan(fid,...args...);
And then I process temp_data.
The csv file I'm trying to load is called spec.csv. It is located two directories down from where I have STARTUP1.m stored. The location of STARTUP1.m is also the place that the mcc generated files are stored to. I have used the pathtool to "Add with subfolders" this location, but am aware that those locations are not transferred to mbuild when compiling.
What I've Tried:
I have gone in and added print statements to print the value of fid to make sure it is valid. When I run it in Matlab, it has a valid value, however when I run in the command prompt it always returns an invalid value of -1.
I have removed all addpath() calls, I have tried adding the STARTUP1.m directory to the mcc ctf archive using:
mcc -m -v -a 'C:\Users\...path...\STARTUP1.m_location' STARTUP1.m -o EXE_REDUC;
However when I do this, I get a different error when running in the command prompt:
Cannot open CTF archive file
'C:\...path...\AppData\Local\Temp\mathworks_tmp_7532_28296'
or
'C:\...path...\AppData\Local\Temp\mathworks_tmp_7532_28296.zip'
??? Undefined function or variable 'matlabrc'.
To fix this, I've tried adding the pragma
%#function matlabrc
to the top of STARTUP1.m to try and enforce its inclusion, but had no success.
I also copied the spec.csv file to a new directory in the ctfroot and changed
fid = fopen(...)
to:
[tempFile, message] = fopen(fullfile(ctfroot, 'Added Config Files', ad.spec_file));
The message is:
message is: No such file or directory
Objective:
Rearranging file locations is a sufficient workaround while the exectuable only runs on my computer, however the idea is to take this standalone and distribute it to multiple people on many different computers. I would like to be able to have a top folder with a startup file and within this folder, have as many subfolders as the package requires. The startup file should be able to access all subfolders and files within them as necessary.
I read something about the exectuable actually running from a "secret location" on the machine here: http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ
I would just like to be able to group one entire folder tree with all its files into a package containing the executable and be able to run it anywhere.
More info:
When I put the spec.csv file in the same directory as STARUTP1.m, it finds it fine using mcc without the -a 'path' option and using the following in the LoadXLS.m file:
[tempFile, message] = fopen(ad.spec_file,'r');
This project contains GUIs, generates PDFs, generates plots, and also creates a zip directory.
Thank you in advance.
