How to Copy a Local Directory to an Apache Server - directory

I have a directory on my desktop and need to copy it to my server. I've looked up a command to do this being
scp -r /path/to/local/storage user#remote.host:/path/to/copy
but when I run it, it just tells me "No suck file or directory".
First of all is this the correct way to do this or is there an easier way to take a directory from local storage and put it onto an apache server? Once I get it on the server I can move it around just fine there. I just need to get it on there!
the path I'm using right now for local is
/Users/byw5k_000/Desktop/myWebsite
with myWebsite being the directory I want to copy onto my server.
I'm curious if I'm getting the path incorrect. What is the correct path to the desktop on a windows 10 computer and will this work for me to copy an entire directory onto an apache server?

You could try changing to your Desktop directory like this:
cd C:\Users\(username)\Desktop
and then running:
scp -r myWebsite user#remote.host:/path/to/copy
Should work as ling as you can change to your Desktop directory

Udisk - Error creating mount point no such file or directory

I'm trying to automatically mount a USB drive on linux. With all default settings it works and the drive is mounted to /run/media/username/drivename.
I tried to change the default mount point to /media/drivename by following the guide linked here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udisks#Mount_to_/media_(udisks2)
I added the file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-udisks2.rules with the following contents:
# UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED
# ==1: mount filesystem to a shared directory (/media/VolumeName)
# ==0: mount filesystem to a private directory (/run/media/$USER/VolumeName)
# See udisks(8)
ENV{ID_FS_USAGE}=="filesystem|other|crypto", ENV{UDISKS_FILESYSTEM_SHARED}="1"
I then rebooted my machine. Now every time I try to access the drive, I get the following error:
Unable to mount drivename
Error creating mount point '/media/drivename': No such file or directory
If I remove the file I created and reboot again, the drives are mounted to /run/media/username/drivename like normal, and I can access them fine.
I'm on Arch linux. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
For anyone running into a similar issue, I simply created the /media folder and then rebooted and everything worked. Apparently udisks expected /media to already exist.
Put 99-udisks2.rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/
run mkdir /media (as sudo)
run reboot
Profit!

TFS 2015 Build vNext: Upload Files via WebDAV?

We want to upload files to a WebDAV-Folder and tried to use the "Windows Machine File Copy"-task for that (this uses ROBOCOPY inside). But we donĀ“t see any possibility to enter the destination folder in the right form.
1. We tried
\\our.website.de#SSL\DavWWWRoot\remote.php\webdav\
and
2. we also mounted this location as a network drive first and tried to use the drive letter,
but none of these attempts succeeded.
Is "Windows Machine File Copy" the right type of task for that or is there any custom task out there that accomplishes what we need?
Thx...
You should separate specified Machines and the folder path. Do not use it together.
Machines:
Example: dbserver.fabrikam.com, dbserver_int.fabrikam.com:5986,192.168.34:5986
Folder Path:
The folder on the Windows machine(s) to which the files will be
copied.
Example: C:\FabrikamFibre\Web

Nginx fails to create directories on Windows 10 with error: nginx: CreateFile()...failed

I need to find a way/setting to allow Nginx to run a .bat file that will create directories and files via a WINDOWS service; my OS is Windows 10.
Currently, our windows service fails to create directories and files with the following:
CreateFile()
"C:\someForlderName\build\distribution.\nginx/logs/error.log" failed
(3: The system cannot find the path specified)
Somehow Nginx doesn't have enough permissions to perform write-access operations like creating directories such as /logs/ and /temp/ within the /Nginx/ directory.
Anybody ran into this problem before?
I was facing the same problem, sharing the thing that worked for me.
Nginx is showing this error because... nginx didn't find the error.log file..
For that,
Go to you nginx folder where other folders like conf, docs, html etc are their as.
Create folder name logs, and in that folder create a file name error.logas.
see the right way in picture..
If your Nginx is at D:\nginx\nginx.exe, execute this to start nginx
D:\nginx\nginx.exe -c D:\nginx\conf\nginx.conf -p D:\nginx\
For Nginx on Windows, you need to execute nginx server related command from respective home directory where nginx configuration file is located.

Rsync link destination folder

I am using rsync to back up a folder on a local machine to a remote machine.
The link destination folder is on the remote machine as is the target. When using the command line it works fine - using link-dest=../../link - that being the location relative to the target directory. When I try to put this into a script on the local machine it failed to exec --link-dest=../../link. In the script I have a variable LNK="../../link/" and TRG="remote#user:home/user/target. I am pretty new to scripting but this has stumped for a few days now.
I did try the full path on the LNK variable remote#user:home/user/link - same result

Why a folder name is different in Windows Explorer than command line or cygwin?

I have been using Robocopy to backup my computer files. I have been using the following command:
robocopy C:\Users\ J:\backup\ *.* /a /XD AppData /XJD /R:0 /s
When I look into my J drive in Windows Explorer I see folder named J:\Users\ but when I use dir from the command line I see a folder named j:\backup. The backup and user folder seem to be the same. I also tried looking at the content of the J drive in cygwin and see the backup folder but do not see a Users folder. What is going on? Is robocopy the culprit?
Just go into the backed up folder and delete the desktop.ini file. The folder name will revert back to the directory name. You copied the desktop.ini file from the source "users" folder that is causing the issue. You can and desktop.ini to your exclusions list with out any issues to your back up. They get created on the fly anyway if they are not present.
I tested this on a windows 7 pro machine just to verify.
The problem is not related to robocopy. The link below describes the problem.
