http://stackoverflow.com – I'll explain my goal first to avoid "XY Problem" misunderstandings. I want to be able to produce a file (on Linux) that, when downloaded to a Windows machine and double clicked, will open a (ms office, but it shouldn't matter IIUC) file with a known path (on the local windows machine) preset by the server. It seems what I'm trying to do is possible if I include the path of the file I want to open (and neither of the other details regarding the volume it's stored in etc) in the lnk file. I first checked the lnk file format specs trying to generate the file in a python script but that's not my (HowTos)

Php.ini 3 years 23 weeks ago

I am new to linux server. My developer wants to have the .php.ini file I have created a phpinfo file and then I got the path for the php.ini file the path is :

Configuration File (php.ini) Path /usr/lib Loaded Configuration File /usr/local/lib/php.ini

So, I have been working on an upload script (code is below) that I have working on my windows machine, but on my Linux server it seems to fail with

Error: ENOENT, open 'uploads/da5ab67b48ea2deecd25127186017083'

I understand that the error is saying there is no path/file, but I do check to for file existence before I attempt the file rename.

Hello,

I am having some trouble with getting my CGI scripts to see my external stylesheets that are stored on the local machine. For example, when I go to localhost/cgi-bin/[file].cgi, it loads the CGI script, but it does not have my styles. If I try to open the .css file directly in Firefox, it has internal server error.

I'm trying to edit the hosts file on Windows Server 2008.

I right clicked on Notepad and Ran as Administrator, then opened the hosts file, but when I try to save it I get the following error message:

Cannot create the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file. Make sure that the path and file name are correct.

Next I checked the permissions for Administrators on the hosts file.

I've spent the last two weeks banging my head against this wall. I think I'm starting to understand the problem though. I manage a design company and they have 5 macs (OSX 10.5/.6/.7) connected over SMB to a Windows 2008 R2 file server, another machine functions as Domain Controller (that might not matter). All the macs can connect ok, no issues finding the server or logging in.

I am trying to write a very very simple script in Linux. Let me show you the code first:

#!/bin/bash # The shell program uses glob constructs and ls # to list all entries in testfiles, that have 2 # or more dots "." in their name.

ls -l /path/to/file/*.*.*

When I run this code with bash myscript command, I get something like: /path/to/file/file.with.three.dots

But I don't want this.

I work at a company where third party contributors transfer files, typically by FTP, to our site.

Depending on which account the file is uploaded to, some scripts are triggered and the file is processed.

Usually the file is transferred via FTP to another machine, that does a specific job on the file, and then we monitor a "finished" folder on the remote machine and transfer it back.
