I have a folder on a server which is shared with guest access enabled. I want to be able to copy a file from that folder to a local machine with Applescript. So far I have:
property source : "server:sharedfolder:file.ext"
property destination : "Macintosh HD:Users:User:Documents:Folder"
tell application "Finder"
copy file "source" to folder "destination"
end tell
Which I think should work. But I get the error: Can't set folder source to destination number 10006. Any ideas?
Thanks.
you need to remove the quotes around your declared properties:
property source : "server:sharedfolder:file.ext"
property destination : "Macintosh HD:Users:User:Documents:Folder:"
tell application "Finder"
copy file source to folder destination
end tell
It is also good practice to terminate your folder paths with a ":".
HTH
Your current script reads: "Copy the variable source to the variable destination." I'm assuming you don't want to just change the variables around; you're using the wrong command. See my answer to this question to learn more.

Hi I'm getting the following error....
GET METADATA works fine if I do WildCard like ASN to find list of files when I do for loop and pass each file name in the COPY Activity (Source)
ErrorCode=SftpPathNotFound,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Can't find SFTP path '/Receive/INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_20210728012200817116546932367669276.xml'. Please check if the path exists. If the path you configured does not start with '/', note it is a relative path under the given user's default folder ''.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary.SftpConnector,''Type=Renci.SshNet.Common.SftpPathNotFoundException,Message=/opt/apps/uprd1bpn1/bpfs2/2021/July/0209/04/22/25565817aec33de9cnode2_WF128489406.dat (No such file or directory),Source=Renci.SshNet,'
Any ideas?
I was facing the same issue described above, the only difference was the type of my source file, .txt.
In my case the error message was misleading, the actual error message was getting hidden by the 'chunking' option. If you pay attention to the source tab of the copy activity, by default it is set to use 'chunking', which transfers your data at an increased speed.
By disabling chunking, I could notice the error was actually in a particular line of the file, then fixing the file, fixed the problem.
1. Check if "Copy behavior" on the sink side is marked as "None".
2. Check if you have permissions for uploading the files.
3. For wildcardFileName Dynamic content of fileName should be replaced with asterisk (*).
E.g. If 20210728012200817116546932367669276 is dynamic content in your filename
then wildcardFileName for INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_20210728012200817116546932367669276.xml should be INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_*.xml

After executing some simple commands like
dos('copy *.txt new.txt', '-echo')
dos('echo. 2 > EmptyFile.txt', '-echo')
I tried to delete the folder in which these files were created. However, Windows gives me the message
"cannot delete "FolderName": the folder is being used by another person/program".
I have to close Matlab to make it work.
How do I solve this? I guess it's something like closing the "session" of cmd commands...
What you're not showing is the change of working directory to your folder. Windows won't let you delete a folder that a process has as a current working directory.
The solution is simple: change the working directory out of that folder. Say:
cd('..')
I got the following error while starting JBoss from a command line prompt today:
'findstr' is not recognized as an internal or external command
Please google it, you can find a lot of answers. But do as below to fix it. Add the following value to Right Click My Compuer -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> System Variables -> Select Path variable -> append the below value.
C:\WINDOWS\system32
It should work with that change.
As others pointed, issue is in wrong settings of PATH variable in Windows.
According to article this is most probably because some stupid installer wrongly modified PATH variable in Windows registry. Registry has 2 different string value types - REG_SZ and REG_EXPAND_SZ. Only the second one allows for expansion of %SystemRoot%.
So check your path by typing set path in command prompt. If you see unexpanded %SystemRoot% and other variables in Path, you are affected (PATH should show only plain directory names, not variables).
You need to edit Path variable in registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment. As it is not possible to change the type of key, save the path value somewhere, delete the key and re-create it with type REG_EXPAND_SZ. You need to logout for changes to take effect.
for me it works when I've coped findstr(from windows/system32) to wildfly/bin
Please go throught the simplest steps:-
go to C:\Windows\system32\ and copy findstr.exe file.
paste this file into the location C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin
Run your jboss again you will get out of this.....
Check to see if you %SystemRoot% is evaluating (type set path into a command prompt, you should not see %SystemRoot%, but instead that actual path). If your path variable's (user, or systems) first entry begins with an %(an environment variable) this can cause an issue.
To resolve this, simply swap this first entry with anything else in your path that does not lead with an environment variable.
You can also hard code the directory by replacing 'findstr' with 'C:\Windows\system32\findstr'. This is useful when using systems with restricted user permissions.
I have try to work with play framework but stuck with to run activator.bat file but solution is the same just copy file from windows/system32/findsr and past it to under stuck folder then run the respective file again.
thanks to andrewsiand Suryaprakash
Please beware that current Windows systems use a Capital "S" for the System directory, so:
C:\WINDOWS\System32
%SystemRoot%\System32
Omitting the capital S will result in a neglect of the line in the %PATH%
In my case (not JBoss related) the following helped to fixed this error.
Instead of:
SET path="%path%;C:\some\additional\path"
I used:
SET "path=%path%;C:\some\additional\path"
For IBM ACE solution for
'findstr' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
Go to the path C:\Windows\System32
Find the findstr.exe, copy it and then find the path where you bin file of your application is found. eg C:\Program Files\IBM\ACE\11.0.0.12\server\bin then past it inside the bin file
cancel the console of ace and re-open it.
Then run ACE toolkit command on ace console.
Then press enter, now it can open.
I would like to move my default "My Documents\WindowsPowerShell" folder. However, when I try this, PowerShell of course can't find $profile. Is there a file or something that I can edit to point PowerShell to a different startup folder?
What I can suggest is that you dot source the file having the content of your profile in the file $profile.AllUsersAllHosts
$profile.AllUsersAllHosts is something like C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\profile.ps1
Related question: Is it possible to change the default value of $profile to a new value?
You could use junction.exe from Sysinternals to make the WindowsPowershell directory a symbolic link to another location (but not a network drive).
You could do this if you wanted to store the profile scripts at C:\POSH
junction.exe "$HOME\Documents\WindowsPowerShell" 'C:\POSH'
As far as i know you can't do that. The user profile location is always under 'My Documents\WindowsPowerShell' and your only option is to relocate your documents folder (folder redirection).
By default $Profile/$Home/$PSModulePath are all within the registry... normally under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment for User environment variables
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment for System environment variables
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\User Shell Folders
and elsewhere!
The property Environment.CurrentDirectory always returns the path of system directory instead my application directory. In my colleague's PC, it returns application directory.
What is the problem? How can I solve it?
The following code is working for me
ePCRSettings = XMLParser.XmlParser.Deserialize<PCRGeneratorSettings>(string.Format("{0}\\ePCRPDFSettings.xml", AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory));
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory - Returns the directory E:\MyApplications\.
The following code is not working for me
ePCRSettings = XMLParser.XmlParser.Deserialize<PCRGeneratorSettings>(string.Format("{0}\\ePCRPDFSettings.xml", Environment.CurrentDirectory));
Environment.CurrentDirectory - Returns c:\windows\system32.
This .dll file can be used in VB 6 and ASP.NET applications
set current directory
Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory); //or set executing Assembly location path in param
Environment.CurrentDirectory //now returns your app path
Use
System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location);
You shouldn't be using the Environment.CurrentDirectory value as a base for file lookups because it can change and may not always be under your control. e.g. a File Save As to a different folder may change the 'current folder' value. As you can see it can yield unpredictable results.
Use a value that you can control better. e.g. a ResourcesFolderPath value in a configuration (xml?) file that is updated when you install your app.
I suspect that this could have something to do with the current user id that the app is running under, for example if you are running the app in a user session (e.g. debugging in VS) then this may return your current directory, but if you were running it under IIS then this could be why it is defaulting to the system folder?
