I am using Apache chemistry to write and read data from a content management system in a Java servlet. I am currently creating a separate folder for each logged on user in the CMS. When the user logs on I have to check and get the reference of the user's Folder so that I can use the same in the session. When the folder is created for the first time, I can get the user's folder using the createFolder call:
Folder userFolder = root.createFolder(newFolderProps);
However if the folder already exists, the only way I can get the folder is by Iterating throught all the children. This can be pretty inefficient. I was wondering if there is any way of specifying the folder name as a query parameter so that I can directly get the users folder without iterating over all the child folders.
Try getObject() or getObjectByPath():
Folder userFolder = (Folder) session.getObject(folderId);
Folder userFolder = (Folder) session.getObjectByPath(folderPath);

I'm able to successfully list folder and contents when my dropbox developer app has full access, however, when I'm using scoped access only to a specific folder, it fails.
Now when I switch to scoped access to a specific folder I'm running into errors. This request should fail since the app does not have access to the folder.
Now when I put in the right folder path, I'm still getting the same error.
For reference I'm sharing my app details
It looks like you're using the App Folder permission. This will root all your paths relative to that app folder; your app will not be able to see outside of it.
For example, if the user sees the file as "/Apps/AppFolderAccess/myfile.txt", your app will see it as "/myfile.txt". By setting your path to /Apps/AppFolderAccess, it is effectively resolving as /Apps/AppFolderAccess/Apps/AppFolderAccess - which is not found.
If your application needs to see content outside its app folder, you should select full access.
Building on top of the other answer: you need to set the application permission to access type "Full Dropbox– Access to all files and folders in a user's Dropbox."
However, note that this requires you to delete your existing app and create a new one since it is not possible to change the scope of an existing app.
I've seen a lot of answers on copying files that use code to set a network share, with credentials, to copy to somewhere else. However I need a solution that will allow a user to copy from a network share they already have access for, to a local drive they don't have access to.
We run RDS servers and have locked down direct access to the local C:/ drive on the servers. We have been given a 3rd party program that needs to read data files that must be stored in a fixed path on the C:/ drive. These data files are updated once a month. Our users have read access but we do not want to give them direct write access to the root C:/ drive.
I need to write a piece of vb.net, or command line code in .bat file that will copy files to the Local C:/ whilst providing the details of a service account to provide the access.
As mentioned I've seen a lot about setting up a mapping to shared folder and passing creds, however we don't want to set the C:/ as mapped shared drive in this instance.
You don't want the user having access to the C Drive in general, is there any particular reason the permissions on the particular subfolder the files are going to can't have overriding permissions to allow writing to just that folder?
If that will not work, first thought that comes to mind is having a helper program that can be ran under a different user that does have that access. Set up an intermediate folder the user can write to, the program that they can launch drops the files into a folder they have access to. Helper program watches for files in the intermediate folder, moves them to where they need to be.
Set up would need to include adding a user that does have access to both locations, and then adding to task manager to launch the helper program under that other user at login.
I am trying to create a directory where I can store files to download/link to...for example, I have a CSV file with data I need to use on another site.
I created a folder in app/assets/ named files/site1content. If I go to http://mysite.com/assets/files/site1content/filename.txt, I get a "could not find mysite.com".
Does something need to be configured in the routes?
The public folder is aimed for public access, put your files in public/files/site1content folder.
I am using Apache server. Usually when I want to start a new website project, I created a new folder inside my server directory and inside that folder I would have 'index.html or index.php'. When I direct my localhost URL to that folder, it would open it and automatically display index.php.
Now I am trying something new with this CakePHP framework. I finished setting it up, and when I direct my localhost URL to folder 'cakephp-cakephp' (folder containing all the cakePHP files), it then shows me this message:
Release Notes for CakePHP 2.0.0-dev.
Your tmp directory is writable.
The FileEngine is being used for caching. To change the config edit APP/config/core.php
Your database configuration file is present.
I think the next step here is to start the development by saving all my files to "app" folder. But the message is not gone even when I deleted the default index.php files from inside the folder 'cakephp-cakephp'. It seems anyway, the index.php files do not actually generate the message.
Does anybody know what file generates that release notes message? I want to delete that file so that I wont get the message (which I believe is triggered by some default file like 'index.php') when I access folder 'cakephp-cakephp', and then it will show me the file directory inside that folder instead, and I can traverse file directory easily using my browser and access my app folder, in which I am planning to store my index.php file, and save all my development files..
You cannot delete the index.php files and you usually don't modify those files unless you need to do some special configuration. Adding the file app/views/pages/home.ctp gets rid of that message and becomes your default home page.
Also, as stated in the comments, you should really read the manual and try the tutorial.

im working with cms made simple.my problem is my template folder permission.in this cms when a template uploaded,a folder (by the same name of that temlate,for example : 'TEMP1') creates and it's permission is set to 0755.when i want to change permission of the template folder i will get this error :
FileOp Failure on: /home/visamast/public_html/uploads/arty1: Operation not permitted
and also when i want to upload files via ftp or cpanel to this folder nothing will happen,i mean the upload process will be done,but no files has been uploaded!!!!!!!!
how can i fix this problem?!
It sound like you are having an ownership problem rather than a permission problem. If your server is set up to run PHP as a module, files and directories created by PHP will be owned by the generic Apache user. Generally that means that you will not be able to change permissions on the file/directory. Most likely you will need to have your hosting company do a recursive chown on the entire directory tree your site is in to make you the owner of all of the files and directories.
