General :: Editing Document On Installation Path?
Aug 9, 2010
I'm installing some software on a RedHat based O/S and have the instruction to
- 'Edit the document document name on the installation path.'
How do I find what the installation path is for this document? Are all programs installed in the same basic place on Linux machines?
I have tried the 'locate' command and it is not found. I have tried (find / -name 'documentname') and get a whole bunch of output saying:
find: /lost+found: Permission denied
find: /proc/tty/driver: Permission denied
find: /proc/1/task/1/fd: Permission denied
find: /proc/1/fd: Permission denied

I've been searching the site to find out what the program path is for Ubuntu programs, but can't find what I'm looking for. My search terms were :
- "program path" Ubuntu
- change "program path"
- "open with" "program path"
I came across a few articles but nothing really seemed to help me. Here's the problem; anytime I try to open a PDF file from my browser, I get either the "Open With..." option or the "Save to..." option.
If I select "Open With..." the default has been changed to Virus Scanner (ClamTK) which I recently installed. Admittedly, I was fooling around with virus scanners to see how they work in Ubuntu. But now my Document Viewer won't open up the PDF files. If I select "Save to..." and save the PDF file(s) to my desktop, and double-click the PDF file from my desktop, then Document Viewer will open up the file. What is the program path for me to change the default program back to Document Viewer???

I didn't find this question in the FAQ or through the Search button.I added a server application and would like to update the PATH env't variable so that I don't have to type the full path for its binaries. I'd like to make sure I do it right: Do I just need to edit /etc/profile or is there another file somewhere in CentOS that I should use instead?

I installed Chrome straight from the Google webpage. But, it kept crashing. So I've uninstalled it to go back to Firefox, which I never uninstalled. Problem is, now, links in Evolution and Gwibber no longer work! It's still trying to open Chrome. Presumably I have to edit a variable or config file with the path to the browser in it? Where would I find this?

I use this command:
Code:
find ./ -atime +360
to figure out the files that haven't been accessed since 360 days. The command above will return results like this:
Code:
/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
/uploads/2009/08/another-file-name.ext
... etc
I'm taking here about tins of directories, thousands of files. I'm looking to find a command that makes me able to move the results above to another path, and to create that path once it doesn't exist like below:
Code:
mv /uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext /old-files/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
But I want the executed command to create this path
Code:
/old-files/uploads/2010/02/
If it doesn't exist.

I have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?

Current script:-
prefix=user@my-server:
find . -depth -type d -name .git -printf '%h�' | while read -d "" path ; do (
cd "$path" || exit $?
[code]....
How shall i go about changing the absolute path to relative path, so that /home/git/mirror/android/adb/ndk.git gets converted to /mirror/android/adb/ndk.git //echo <command> "$prefix$PWD.git" ?? - anything for relative path?

I have installed Ubuntu 10.4 at my laptop (lenovo G530) which includes OpenOffice 3.2 (Oracle). The problem is that I turned the laptop off without saving a document in Openoffice.Now every time I open OpenOffice it comes the OpenOffice Document Recovery and asks me to Press "Start Recovery". The dialog window is too large and I can't move it beyond the top of the screen to find the "Start Recovery" button. It goes until the top of the screen and that 's it!Also I can't resize it to a small one.I have tried to "move" it but it doesn't work.I have autohidden the upper and down bars but nothing!The window is too big to find the "Press button".
How can i make the window going upper the screen?

I have an old laptop that I installed EasyPeasy Lucid on. I have never used Grub2 as my other Ubuntu installs still use Grub Legacy. I have studied all the tutorials which instruct that the grub.cfg file should not be edited directly.This old laptop has one of the dreaded Intel graphics chips for which the kernel automatically loads the i915 module. Of course (like a multitude of others with Intel graphics and Lucid) I booted into a black screen but knew the workaround was to enable mode setting through grubI used the
Code:
i915.modeset=1
and added it to /etc/default/grub line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX, just after "quite splash", just

I'm attempting to add an additional HDD to my system (without having to format it). I was told that I need to edit my Fstab. I'm trying to get an internal SATA drive mounted. I'm getting these two errors when I try and mount the drive DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
and
DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.Failed: An operation is already pending
my Fstab is as follows.
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

When I try to convert a word document using the ooextract python script from open office like
/usr/local/bin/ooextract.py myDocument.doc myDocument.pdf
the open office deamon (sOffice.bin) takes 100% CPU load forever.
We are using Open Office 2.6.3 on a virtual machine running debian squeeze 2.6.32-5-amd64
UPDATE:
We found out that this appears only with our test document, other documents can be converted without problem. But how can we find out what's wrong with our document. How can we enable traces/loggin o the sOffice.bin process?

I have multiple .xls documents that are formatted as such,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?mso-application Excel.Sheet?>
They are all given different filenames bob_smells.xls, nancy_smells_worse.xls etc. I was wondering using Linux (LUbuntu specifically), would it be possible to combine all of these worksheets into one document, with each of the seperate files becoming a tab / sheet within the one file (And the name reflecting the original name of the document)?

I've set my document root directory in httpd.conf to the directory I want to serve files out of, and set Options to Indexes FollowSymLinks; I've saved the configuration file and restarted apache, yet when I direct my browser to the domain name that's seated there, I can't get at my index.html which exists there. It serves index.html when it exists in the natural document root.
