Essentially my log files look something like this right now:
Invalid date/time in zip entry
Invalid date/time in zip entry
Invalid date/time in zip entry
Invalid date/time in zip entry
Invalid date/time in zip entry
Invalid date/time in zip entry
...
Now under some investigation, I've found that this is due to Rubyzip and also due to when I seem to open a file in the following way...
require 'roo'
#Define files to read with location specify
today_file=(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/output/today-report.xlsx')
yesterday_file=(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/output/yesterday-report.xlsx')
lm_file=(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/output/lm-report.xlsx')
#Define initial variables
txls = Roo::Excelx.new(today_file)
yxls = Roo::Excelx.new(yesterday_file)
lmxls = Roo::Excelx.new(lm_file)
Essentially this code is using a Ruby library called 'Roo' to open up some spreadsheets. All the code does is specify the current folder/specific file and then open using Roo.
I've rewritten these lines a few different ways to try and stop Rubyzip being as irritating but to no avail. Does anybody have any clue as to what is wrong here?
Thanks.
Even better answer... add this to your ruby job
Zip.warn_invalid_date = false

I'm working on the CSV again!! I'm trying to get Cucumber to open it, but my problem is, everytime I download a new CSV from the webpage being developed, it adds a date and time stamp like so:
company_123456_export_all_20151007_074608.csv
Is there a way I could tell Cucumber to just open the last one? I've tried:
File.open(C:/Users/**/Downloads/company_#{export}_export_all_*.csv).last
But it doesn't like it, any suggestions?
I think you should read more about file manipulations in ruby.
For your situation you could try something like:
file_name = Dir.glob("C:\/Users\/**\/Downloads\/company_#{export}_export_all_*.csv").last
file = File.open(file_name, "r")
...
Where, first line is getting all file names and takes only last one. And second line is opening this file in read only mode.
So I'm making a game with Ruby/Gosu and the lines to load all the images look like this:
#image_name = Gosu::Image.new(self, 'C:\Users\Carlos\Desktop\gamefolder\assets\bg.jpg', false)
I want to refer to them based on their location relative to the referring file. The file which includes the above line is in C:\Users\Carlos\Desktop\gamefolder\, so I would think I could just change the above to '\assets\bg.jpg' or 'assets\bg.jpg', but this doesn't work.
The specific error is "Could not load image assets/bg.jpg using either GDI+ or FreeImage: Unknown Error (Runtime Error)."
If you want to get the current directory (of your execution context, not necessarily the file you're 'in'), just use Dir.pwd. Output this to console to check that your current directory is actually gamefolder.
To get the current directory of your actual ruby file (relative to Dir.pwd), use __FILE__, e.g.
File.dirname(__FILE__)
Pass that to File.expand_path to get a fully-qualified path. You can do a little sanity check by making sure File.exists?("#{File.expand_path File.dirname __FILE__}/assets/bg.jpg") returns true.
(Try File.expand_path('assets/bg.jpg')...that might be all you need here.)
Command Prompt its not working since i am using a generic path to open a excel file. Here is the error message:

Generic path code
excel = WIN32OLE::new("excel.Application")

workbook = excel.Workbooks.Open(path)
worksheet = workbook.WorkSheets(1) # Get first workbook
site = worksheet.Range('A2').Value # Get the value at cell in worksheet.
workbook.Close
excel.Quit
Any Ideas
I believe you need to use an absolute path rather than a relative path when opening the file:
path = File.expand_path("../../../../MasterFile.xls", __FILE__)
Note that you will also need an additional '..' when using expand_path, since the first '..' is going back from the file.
I am working on writing a ruby script to iterate through a file containing a list of file paths to open in Microsoft Excel. I read the file like this:
file_names = IO.readlines('D:\TEST_1\file_names.txt')
Next, I create an array of file names from each line of the parsed file (thus containing an array of file paths). Finally, I loop through that array with the following code, to open the documents:
require 'win32ole'
xl = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application')
xl.Visible = 1
file_names.each do |file_name|
wb1=xl.Workbooks.Open(file_name)
ws1=wb1.worksheets(1)
end
That first call to parse file_names.txt produces this exception, which I am having difficulty understanding:
Test4.rb:6:in 'method_missing'
OLE error code:800A03EC in Microsoft Office
Excel 'D:\Test_1\1.xlsx' couldnot be found. Check the spelling of
the file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
if you are trying to open the file from your list most recently used
files, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved or deleted
HR Error code : 0x80020009 Exception occurred. from Test4.rb:6:in
'block in ' from Test4.rb:5:in 'each' from Test4.rb:5:in
''
This error does not appear when I pass a single file name (instead of a file path) as my parameter - so why do I get it here? Any help would be much appreciated.
At first look you are not using the variable "file_name" but a symbol :file_name.
file_array.each do |file_name|
wb1=xl.Workbooks.Open(file_name)
ws1=wb1.worksheets(1)
end
The .XFDL file extension identifies XFDL Formatted Document files. These belong to the XML-based document and template formatting standard. This format is exactly like the XML file format however, contains a level of encryption for use in secure communications.
I know how to view XFDL files using a file viewer I found here. I can also modify and save these files by doing File:Save/Save As. I'd like, however, to modify these files on the fly. Any suggestions? Is this even possible?
Update #1: I have now successfully decoded and unziped a .xfdl into an XML file which I can then edit. Now, I am looking for a way to re-encode the modified XML file back into base64-gzip (using Ruby or the command line)
If the encoding is base64 then this is the solution I've stumbled upon on the web:
"Decoding XDFL files saved with 'encoding=base64'.
Files saved with:
application/vnd.xfdl;content-encoding="base64-gzip"
are simple base64-encoded gzip files. They can be easily restored to XML by first decoding and then unzipping them. This can be done as follows on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install uudeview
uudeview -i yourform.xfdl
gunzip -S "" < UNKNOWN.001 > yourform-unpacked.xfdl
The first command will install uudeview, a package that can decode base64, among others. You can skip this step once it is installed.
Assuming your form is saved as 'yourform.xfdl', the uudeview command will decode the contents as 'UNKNOWN.001', since the xfdl file doesn't contain a file name. The '-i' option makes uudeview uninteractive, remove that option for more control.
The last command gunzips the decoded file into a file named 'yourform-unpacked.xfdl'.
Another possible solution - here
Side Note: Block quoted < code > doesn't work for long strings of code
The only answer I can think of right now is - read the manual for uudeview.
As much as I would like to help you, I am not an expert in this area, so you'll have to wait for someone more knowledgable to come down here and help you.
Meanwhile I can give you links to some documents that might help you:

Sorry if this doesn't help you.
You don't have to get out of Ruby to do this, can use the Base64 module in Ruby to encode the document like this:
irb(main):005:0> require 'base64'
=> true
irb(main):007:0> Base64.encode64("Hello World")
=> "SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=\n"
irb(main):008:0> Base64.decode64("SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=\n")
=> "Hello World"
And you can call gzip/gunzip using Kernel#system:
system("gzip foo.something")
system("gunzip foo.something.gz")
