A program requires local path property to perform correctly.I'm seeking shortcut command to execute a program with a supplied localPath For example, cd /usr/local/blogrmis/usr/local/blogrmis/remote & remote program requires local path @ /usr/local/blogrmis to run.is there any shortcut which i can do it in 1 line?
View 2 RepliesFor example, I always go to this path:
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
but I don't want to type
cd
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
in the terminal all the time, can I have some short hand to do so? for example, can I do something like
cd commandPlace
to replace the path?
I have and entry in a crontab for my user (appadmin) that when it executes it does not start with the proper path. It needs to start as the appadmin user as appadmin owns all the directories for glassfish. However, once glassfish restarts, the hudson application cannot find the default JDK. I get an error. If I initiate the restart via command line, all works as it should. I believe it has something to do with PATH in the crontab but am not sure what I need to set the PATH to in crontab.

I am pretty irritated.how to terminate this appending agony.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've noticed that the root account $PATH does not include /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin by default. Are there any potential issues that could arise from adding those directories to the path? If so, what is the best way to make sure your shell finds executables in those directories, without affecting the stability and security of the system?

I've been given one of these ubiquitous usb-sleep buttons which is basically a supersimple usb-keyboard. It's a big button that sends a SLEEP keypress to the computer when you slam it. But that is pretty boring. I'd love to remap it to do something more fun but I can't figure out how to bind to only the sleep press from the button and not from my ordinary keyboard.
The button identifies as
Bus 001 Device 035: ID 1130:600d Tenx Technology, Inc.
I'd like to know if there's either
a way of mapping a key from a specific keyboard to an action OR a way of remapping the sleep key from a specific keyboard to a new key-code or something like that.

I would like to write a script that works its way through a list of commands executing 8 commans (i.e., instances of this program; each with specific flags having to do with the current input file) until the list of commands has been exhausted. Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm having Ubuntu Kramic Koala and i want to create a custom application launcher on the panel so when it is clicked it should open a terminal window and run the following command and then show the output for 5 secs and then closes the terminal... how can i do this?
Code:
cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode && sleep 5
the above command is what i want to be executed at time of running the custom application launcher. if i paste the command in a terminal, it will show the output for 5 secs and then terminates... that's almost what i want. what i exactly want is that, i want it to work like when i click on the shortcut launcher, it should open a terminal and then exectues that command, show the output for 5 sec, pause, and then exits the teriminal.

I am using RHEL 5 and i have configured a daemon that starts automatically when system boots, i have written its startup script on /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and it executes successfully but the problem is that if that daemon stops running (due to any reason) i have to restart/reboot the whole server so that the daemon runs, i need to know that is there a way that we can just re-executes the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file while the whole sytem remains as it is.

If I execute this script from the command line, it works fine. But it does not work at boot up. The echo command is never executed. The link S99rc.local did not exist in any of the runtime directories. I created S99rc.local in /etc/rc2.d and linked it to ../init.d/rc.local. This did not help.

After installing a few packages without a package manager (yast), I was wonding if there is anyway to make a shortcut (or application link or whatever its call) for any given program you install to show up automatically on all users desktops and start menus(for lack of a linux term). For example I installed firefox to a folder in the /opt directory and found that i could drag and drop the shell command to the desktop to make a shortcut, or i could create a new application link on my desktop and point it at firefox. But what If i wanted that to show up for all users somewhere by default? Is there anything like the "all users" desktion winXP or the "public user" in win7?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Acetone ISO in the hopes of installing a program, but alas it doesn't do what I need it to (run the MDF file like a disk rather than showing all the files in it, and because this is a multi-disk thing I'm installing I'm kinda stuck now) and I noticed it would make a new virtual drive every time I mounted an image, and I wound up with four of them, and each one had its own shortcut on my desktop. Well, I removed the program and deleted the folder it created, but these shortcuts are still on my desktop. And they are UNTOUCHABLE!
The command line ls -al ~/Desktop/ will show everything on the desktop BUT THEM, they have no permissions, and cannot be moved, copied, or deleted, because Ubuntu can't find volume information on them. I reinstalled the program to see if anything would help, and I noticed that the drives would go away if I unmounted the image (I coulda sworn I told it to before, but it didn't want to...) but now these drives are errors to the program, and I still can't remove the shortcuts.

It's a Java program started by a shell script
#!bin/sh
java -jar LinShredder.jar
It starts okay in its original folder, but when I link to it from e.g. the desktop it doesn't work.

"#!/bin/bashjava -jar JabRef-2.6.jar"I do this file executable by using the chmod +x.Sometimes I think this works while others like now I only receive the cursor bouncing for sometime before it dissapears

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it was possible to execute a program from RAM, like having the file data in a bash script variable and then running it.
Something like this:
ls=`cat ls`
$ls
So is it possible to run a program without touching the hard disk and without creating tmpfs or ramfs (it would need to be standard user privileges).
