I am stuck with changing a directory to "\10.10.10.10\D$\some_dir"
FileUtils.chdir("\\\\10.10.10.10\\D$\\some_dir\\")
and
Dir.chdir("\\\\10.10.10.10\\D$\\some_dir\\")
do not work in Ruby 1.9.3! It worked in Ruby 1.8.7
Any ideas how to change dir to a remote box dir?
OK that was a problem in windows, it could not access the specified folder on remote box because the credentials were not specified for accessing that folder, all i haqve done is go to win explorer and in address line put the path to that folder on remote box "\10.10.10.10\D$\some_dir" - the credentials is prompted after that , just enter them and put "remember credentials" after you access the folder via explorer the script runs ok

I have to create a shortcut for someone to point and launch an application remotely from a server.
The original shortcut has a UNC path in the target and start in boxes, I need to change the UNC path but it keeps saying the path is invalid and it won't allow me to save it.
I do not have permissions to open the application myself so I cannot right click the target file location and create shortcut.
example of the path I need to change to:
Target:
"\\server.au\application\version\Software\Deployment\CT.EI.Start.application"
Start in:
"\\server.au\application\version\Software\Deployment"
I can manually go as far \\server.com.au\application but not any further due to permission restrictions
Do I need to get permissions to this server and file or is there another way I can put the path in the shortcut? even if its through powershell or command prompt?
I was able to fix it
I did actually require permissions to the file and server to be able to update the shortcut
The Windows Store is unable to install the Desktop Converter on build 14393 here. It starts and gets an error 0x80073CF9. It seems to be only that, as I can download other apps fine.
So I am trying to install it from the zip file.
I have copied the files from DesktopAppConvert.zip into C:\Windows\System32.
I also copied BaseImage-14393 there.
First time I type desktopappconverter it prompted me for the name of the app, and so on.
Then when I go
CMD PS C:\> .\DesktopAppConverter.ps1 -Setup -BaseImage .\BaseImage-14393.wim -Verbose
I get : Access is denied.
What am I doing wrong ?
TIA
I get : Access is denied.
Please extract the DesktopAppConverter.zip to a local folder, like Desktop folder of current user
Also need to ensure the current user has the Administrator permission.
Run the following command from an admin PowerShell window to setup the converter
See Set up the Desktop App Converter
I've been having an issue trying to add github materials from a private repo on a Windows server.
I've seen lots of people suggesting how to add the ssh keys and where but on unix based systems. Haven't found anything related to Windows Servers.
I'm using Go latest release and have installed Go Server & Agent on a Windows Server 2008 with git installed.
I can connect to the private repo using Git Bash.
Whenever I try to add the materials it keeps saying Checking Connection and looks like it stays there forever.
If I use basic auth it works but I would like to make it work without exposing my password in the URL.
Is there a way to do that?
If you run Go under the default local system account, you can follow the suggestions from http://opensourcetester.co.uk/2013/06/28/jenkins-windows-ssh/ to setup the ssh keys for local system account.
If you run Go Server under a domain account (and not the default Local System account), check if you have uploaded your ssh keys to %USERPROFILE%/.ssh/ folder on the server machine, %USERPROFILE% being HOME folder for the domain user. Once you set that up, Go server would be able to pick the required keys. The same holds good for the agent machines. Just so you know, Go would not invoke Git-bash internally to run the git commands, so any setup on bash will not take effect when running git from within Go.
If you are using a windows machine to host GoCD server and agents , it does not run under a normal user account, it runs under the “Local System Account”
So even you can access your git repo from git bash (logged in as the current user),GOCD cannot access the same.
So you need to add the SSH keys for the Local System Account from your your current user.
1.First find the home directory for the Local System Account(It will not reside under C:/Users )
2.Use any remote administration tool to find the home directory- If you go with http://download.sysinternals.com/files/PSTools.zip
a)unzip and run command-line as administrator
b)PsExec.exe -i -s cmd.exe -start the tool )
c)run echo %userprofile% to get the home directory (eg:C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile)
3.Now you can either copy the SSH key files from current user or create a new one using ssh commands.
Try checking Connection after creating/copying the SSH keys, it will show Connection OK!
I am developing a rather basic CMS locally and can not ftp due to permissions problems. I have FileZilla FTP server running in XAMPP and can connect without problems but receive error "550 Permission Denied" when my code tries to upload via ftp.
I tried changing permissions via my FileZilla FTP client but without success (presumably because it is windows- error: "504 Command not implemented for that parameter"). I also tried going to the target folder's properties --> security --> permissions and checking "full" for the user XAMPP is running under.
So how do I setup the permissions to allow my CMS to use ftp in XAMPP?
Finally figured it out. For anyone else who has this problem, there is no need to set permissions in Windows. Instead, on the FileZilla FTP server admin interface select edit --> users --> shared folders and check 'write'.
For a fix of this make sure that the root folder is allowed to write and pass rights permission. had this same issue for a script to run on local web xampp server windows xp.. just change the root file attributes to 755 then try it if that don't work try 777. should work now... hope this works for you... as it did me.
If that does not work go to your htdocs folder in your xampp directory then right click it and check properties .. if read only is ticked .. untick it and apply to all sub folders and files
You're behind firewall? Try to allow FileZilla server program in Firewall.
We're experiencing strange permission issues with SVN after switching from Windows Server 2003 to Server 2008.
On our standard build box there is a folder (C:\SVN_Code_Folder) which AD_User_A associates with a SVN repository using SVN_User and TortoiseSVN 1.7.6
When using Windows 2003, when AD_User_B logs into the box and tries to Update, Switch, Merge the SVN_Code_Folder with SVN_User, the command is executed.
It Windows 2008, it fails with the message:
Command: Update
Error: Working copy 'C:\jboss-4.2.3.GA\server\New folder' locked
Error: sqlite: attempt to write a readonly database
Error: sqlite: attempt to write a readonly database
Completed!
Attempting to unlock the file, which was never locked, via the context menu is met with the following message:
There's nothing to unlock. No file has a lock in this working copy.
I've played with the permissions of the folder and I've discovered that giving "Domain Users" control over the folder fixes the issue, but I would prefer to not have such a broad permissions. I've tried granting the same permissions to individual users and a SVN-group, but these too did not work.
What am I missing?
Is this an improper use of SVN?
Can 2 different Domain users update a folder using SVN without removing the .SVN file?
For future reference...
I had this same problem with some WC's that I copied over to my new laptop's hard drive, from a file share on my old machine.
It turned out that the problem was solved by giving myself (as opposed to all domain users, or any other group) full control over the folder.
Did you check the svn service user on the win2008 machine?
Does that user have local administrator privileges and also have permission to these folders on c:?
After changing anything restart the service.
For me change folder permissions did't help, but I have update for several directories in a batch script so I solved this by
cmd -> Run as administrator -> start update script
