On any heroku command, like heroku, heroky open or heroku ps, my system (windows) keeps saying:
read C:\$Recycle.Bin: The handle is invalid.
multiple times, followed by
EISDIR: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read
I have no clue what's going wrong. Is this an ssh problem? Looks like it is looking for a file in my recycle bin, which is empty.
Commands like heroku _ or heroku login work, though they also give the handle is invalid error multiple times.
I already reinstalled heroku with git. Any other ideas?
Appeared to be an invironment variable SSL_CERT_DIR which I had set to C:\ trying to fix some other (windows) problems.
After some searching, I found removing the recycle bin with this command:
rd /s /q C:\$Recycle.bin
resulted in the same error, but with $recycle.bin replaced by the first folder appearing in C:/. That gave me a hint to search for anything pointing to C:/.
Hope this helps anyone getting the same error to spend less time on it :)

I don't know much about the command line but have been using it a lot lately. I was experiencing errors in a C application when trying to copy a file which didn't make sense; so, I tried using the the command line to make sure the code should work and get an error I don't understand.
copy "AH/Copy testing/media.enc" "AH/Copy testing/new_name.enc" returns the system cannot find the specified file. So, I tried type "AH/Copy testing/media.enc" and get the same error.
However, if change the directory to "AH/Copy testing", then type media.enc it works.
I tried the same statements on different files of the same and different extensions and they all work. For example, type "AH/Copy testing/fileName.enc" works.
Why would media.enc not be found unless the directory is set to its own first? If I copy media.enc to other locations, I get the same error unless the directory is first changed.
Thank you.
I know this is a rudimentary question, but I am dumbfounded.
Let us say that I have two files in the following directory structure:
C:\Program Files\Program\Directory\Subdirectory\one.txt and C:\Program Files\Program\Directory\Subdirectory\Subsubdirectory\two.txt
When I run the following command in shell, I get File not found errors...
del C:\Program Files\Program\Directory\Subdirectory\one.txt C:\Program Files\Program\Directory\Subdirectory\Subsubdirectory\two.txt
I have also tried wrapping the file path and names in quotes with no success.
I have also tried a simple test on two files sitting on a user desktop without success: C:\Users\User\Desktop\one.txt and ...\two.txt etc.
For reference, I want to push a script which will remove the maintenance and update functionality from Firefox to prevent users from getting update messages etc, automatic updates and to break the functionality should someone find out how to try [I am also running mKiosk extension], and I want to push the script using SOTI MobiControl software.
You have spaces in your command path. You need to quote your arguments:
del "C:\Program Files\Program\Directory\Subdirectory\one.txt"
I have not found a solution to this syntax issue - however the problem is solved by the functionality of the SOTI Mobicontroler software.
In the package/script delivery, I am writing individual del commands for each file. SOTI appears to handle each script line one at a time and sequentially.
I recently had a git conflict, and rather than dealing with it properly, I didn't actually fix any of the conflicts, but did something like overwrite the files with another version from another clone of the repo, or moved the files out of the directory, or did a git reset --soft, or some other convoluted series of commands.
Anyway, I've been left with some files on my filesystem that I cannot delete. I cannot move them, rename them, delete them with DEL in the command line, or with RM in gitbash. The file is named:
pom.xml~9b19d48... dpom_refactor
It has 0 bytes, and I've no clue how to get rid of it. I no longer have any .git folder, so I can't use any git commands to rollback what I did. Whenever I attempt to delete/move/rename, I get the error:
Could not find this item
This is no longer located in C:\<filePath>. Verify the item's location and try again.
Any thoughts on how I could get rid of it?
This kind of invalid Windows filename could be dealt with like a nul file.
C:\> rename \\.\C:\..\pom.xml~9b19d48... dpom_refactor del.txt
C:\> del del.txt
Using the \\.\ prefix tells the high-level file I/O functions to pass the filename unparsed to the device driver
If that was to fail, only a dedicated tool (or Live Linux distro CD) would be able to mount that disk and remove the file.
When I try to use GetBundles to update my TextMate bundles, "Parsing Local Bundles" appears and the progress wheel spins endlessly (e.g. >20 minutes). Reading the Help manual for GetBundles suggests that this might be a permissions error.
In line with this, typing at the command line the commands from this question ( How to update GetBundles in TextMate? ),
cd ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/
svn co http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Review/Bundles/GetBundles.tmbundle/
produces this response:
Can't make directory 'GetBundles.tmbundle': Permission denied
Can I fix permissions somehow, to make GetBundles work properly, if that's my problem? Thanks!
update: I seem to have TextMate/Bundles/ in both my user user Library and the higher level Library. Could that be my problem? And if so, how should I fix it?
ORIGINAL RESPONSE:
You need to remove the trailing slash from GetBundles.tmbundle/ so it reads like a file and not a directory: GetBundles.tmbundle <- incorrect (I misunderstood the question - apologies)
UPDATE:
I think the mistake (in your command as typed above anyway) is that spaces need escaping or the path needs quoting in your 'cd' command. So, from a fresh Terminal session (i.e. from your user Home directory) try quoting the path:
cd "Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/"
then
svn co http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Review/Bundles/GetBundles.tmbundle/
Try that, and post the exact terminal readout here...
I'm getting the following error when I try to update my Mercurial directory on a PC:
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Other comments have noted that the problem lies with having ampersands or carets in the path. However my path is this:
C:\Users\First Last\Desktop\goodmorningcmc
That doesn't have any ampersands.
Is it possible that the error is being caused by the space in my username? This is a really frustrating error.
Thanks,
Kevin
I could be that a file has been added to the repository by someone else which has dodgy character in it. When running update Mercurial is trying to create the file on disk. Try running hg serve and browsing to http://localhost:8000 - then look through the changeset history to see which files have been added/renamed. That might give you a clue.
I solved the problem - it turns out there was a filename in the repo that contained a pipe character | . Renaming that file solved the problem.
