Hello Dear StackOverFlower ! I have some question about saving my folder in a single location. I want all my saved files go there by default, Notepad++,SQLDev... I've tried to find some registry keys, GPO (works only for Excel)... But I cannot find any method. Someone have any idea ?
Thx !

I have created a media type that accepts XML files and saves them to a custom publicly accessible location on the server.
Ideally I would like the file to be overwritten when the exact same file is uploaded. This does not happen, instead it creates a new file and adds a number on the end. I have "Create new Revision" turned off.
To get around this issue I thought I could just delete the file via the CMS. The uploaded file has status of "Permanent" and is used 0 places. I know the cron job cleans up files for you, but when I run the cron the file in question is still there. I figure it's because the file is set to permanent, but I don't see a way to flip this to temporary.
Any help is much appeciated.
There is a setting nested away in the file system settings, which lets you configure it to remove (or not removed) orphaned files. If drush isn't removing them despite having no usages recorded, I'd check this option isn't ticked.
The temporary and permanent status are used for storing temporary files during the upload/save process, so I wouldn't tinker with those too much.
If you fancy making the form yourself using the form API, then you can save the file programmatically using the FILE_EXISTS_REPLACE parameter.

I have deployed my project to Azure. In my project I have "App_Data\Images" folder.
Now I'm trying to do the following:
String filename = GLOBAL_IMAGES_VALS.GET_FILE_PREFIX(imageType) + "-" + User.Identity.GetUserId<int>().ToString() + Path.GetExtension(image.FileName);
String origPath = Server.MapPath("~\\App_Data")+"\\Images\\" + filename;
But then upon trying:
image.SaveAs(origPath);
I get this error message:
Could not find a part of the path
'D:\home\site\wwwroot\App_Data\Images\logo-10003065.jpg'.
How can I save my file to "App_Data\Images\"?
The actual problem was that the sub-folder 'Images' did not exist. I can't remember why the publish process did not create this sub-folder, however I added it manually and then everything worked fine.
EDIT:
As others wrote here (#Spectarion). I'll put here the important remark that explain why the folder was not created:
Just for the future readers, folder won't be created if it's empty.
Folder is empty even if there are files that are not included in
project.
Just put some 'fake.txt' file into any folder you want to make sure that it will be created, and of course don't forget to add it to the project. Good luck.
Since you don't have any file in the particular folder, while publishing Web deploy ignores the empty folder.
Quick fix: Add any file to the folder before publishing will fix this issue.
if (!Directory.Exists(Server.MapPath("~/Images")))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath("~/Images"));
}
The directory might be missing in the folder. Create the directory and use it in file path
Maybe this :
System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment.MapPath("~\\App_Data")+"\\Images\\" + filename )
Maybe the images folder doesn't exist and you need to create it first? Although I wouldn't recommend saving images in your app like this if it is designed for people uploading images. I would save them in Azure storage via blobs or the new Azure File storage. I would keep your app deployment files clean just related to your app and save any user generated content outside of it.
BTW, If you are using Azure Web Apps you can use the environment variable of "HOME" to always get the correct path (which should be D:\home)
string path = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("HOME") +
"\\site\\wwwroot\\App_Data\\images"
I assume your AppData folder is just under the wwwroot folder, which is usually the case.
Try this:
HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(Path.Combine("~/AppData/Images/", filename));
I just had this problem on VS15. I first followed the advice in this question in order to generate the error you've got. I'm guessing this follows in part dsb's answer, but dsb hasnt given any description of the actual process of fixing this.
I then went to https://<mywebsite>.scm.azurewebsites.net/DebugConsole to look through the directory and found that App_Data had not been published
Which was why the error was throwing. So, I then solved this by simply going to the solution explorer, right clicking App_Dataand selecting to "Publish App_Data".
However, my website was a short-term academic effort for a project - I think there is probably a lot to be said for considering Matt Watsons answer above about whether or not allowing users to upload to the deployment area is a good idea
While I have found the updated hash files to be added to WordPress, I have had a terrible time locating anything that gives specific direction as to where this file goes and exactly how to add it. Should it be added via a single file created with notepad, or should it be placed in a folder? I apologize if this sounds elementary, but this is a completely new adventure for me.
I found that the hash values for the files are provided but the file itself has to be created with the name of the file it says it is missing. Once that is created, move the file into the plugin itself and rerun the scan.
I've got a very strange problem using drupal 7. I've got a wbesite running and using views and content types I have been able to build a lot of functionality. Now the following occurs:
When I add a new field to a content type (new or existing) of the the type file or image, I have this field in the form but when I try to upload a file or image using this form it gives an error "The file could not be uploaded" or the full error (from the recent log messages): "The upload directory public:// for the file field field_katapult_voorpagina could not be created or is not accessible. A newly uploaded file could not be saved in this directory as a consequence, and the upload was canceled."
Strangely, when I upload a file or image using an older existing field (pointing to the same directory: public://) it does not give an error and the files upload without a problem. So this makes me think that the server settings are actually set properly.
Anybody who can help me with this problem?
If not, can anybody point me in the right direction as to where I can find the files that handle the upload process in drupal 7?
Many thanks in advance!
You need to check a couple of things :
where is your public files folder, and if that is writable by the webserver ( in /admin/config/media/file-system )
where does your working field send files (it might be a different directory), and if it is, use that for the new fields as well.
Check you file destination directory setting of new image field. Do not include preceding or trailing slashes. This field supports tokens.
You can also check max, min resolutions, file upload limit, image style (if it is new image style other than thumbnail/ or existing) & number of values ( if it set to 1 you can't upload 2 or more). Finally you have to set it public files type.
I think you should check the files folder permission.
I've been testing Alfresco for a few days but seem not to find a solution for this.
In Alfresco when an user uploads a file to a folder where it has the contributor role everything works nice, but he can delete that file. I want avoid that so I have defined a rule that takes the ownership of every file uploaded. The script is defined as
document.setOwner('admin');
This way the file can be deleted only by admin. If the rule is active the upload fails for everyother user. Does anybody know what it takes to take ownership of a file in that situation using a script?
I am using Alfresco 4.0a
Thanks.
I guess you can better do the following
document.setOwner("");
Because admin already has full authority in Alfresco.
