General :: Finding Out Why/how A Folder Is Being Created

Jun 22, 2010

There's a folder on my Linux desktop which shouldn't exist. The first time I saw it, I thought I'd accidentally copied it from somewhere else, so I deleted it. Now it's back again. So it must have been automatically created by some process, but what can I do to figure out which program is creating it? I think it's likely that if I delete the folder it'll eventually be created again, so I should be able to catch this program in the act if anyone can suggest a technique for doing so. By the way, there are no files in this mystery folder, and its name is the same as another folder I created months ago to hold my personal documents, not something that a program would create to hold its own configuration files or the like.

General :: Thunderbird 3.1.1.10, Not Finding Sent E-mail In Send Folder Any More

Jul 12, 2011

Using Thunderbird 3.1.10 and no longer can see copies of my sent messages in the Sent Folder. I tried to tick the box in account settings to save a copy and it would not take the change. What I did notice is that the e-mails sent are being received on the other end, but I do not have a copy in the Sent folder. It seems as though my e-mail account has been hijacked, and I changed my e-mail account password as a precaution. I am also getting e-mail BACK in my in box that I sent to other people. My AT&T account uses yahoo and my account through AT&T was originally bellsouth.net What can I do to make sure I get a copy of all of my e-mail sent out?

General :: Break Copy Process When Folder Size Reaches Its Maximum?

Mar 19, 2011

I have written a script.

#/bin/bash
a=`du -sh /root/samplefolder | cut -f1`
echo $a > testfile

[code]....

The aim of this script is, when the folder reaches 20M then attributes will be set to that particular folder so that no newfiles and folders cannot be created or copied to that samplefolder. whenever i copy a file morethan 20M to that folder its getting copied fully and then the attributes were applied. But i dont want this to happen, when the folder reaches its maximum current write operation to that folder should be stopped automatically with a error.

If there is a command I can use to find specific file types? Say if I want to find all the jpg's in my home folder, but they don't have the .jpg extension in the name, how would I do it?

General :: Evaluate Size Of Output Command?

Nov 18, 2010

I'm trying to do something like this:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
cmd1=$(cat /var/log/messages | grep -e 'blocked for more than 120 seconds' | cut -c 55-62)
if $cmd1 != 0; then echo 'okay'; fi

however i'm messing up somewhere... bash attempts to evaluate the elements in cmd1. when I try to run this script it complains saying:

Quote:

test1.sh: line 5: blocked: command not found

I am open to alternatives. My intent is to replace cat /var/log/messages with dmesg, so I can attempt to determine if a problematic application I use encounters a blocked state (unresponsive for more than 120 seconds).

Should I be using a different test condition? I tried something like:

Code:
# this declares cmd1 as an array
cmd1=($(cat /var/log/messages | grep -e 'blocked for more than 120 seconds' | cut -c 55-62))
#attempt to determine if number of elements in array is greater than zero
if ${#cmd1[@]} > 0; then echo okay; fi

But I get the same error... what am I doing wrong?

General :: 512KB Maximum Transfer Size Per Command?

Apr 7, 2011

I'm using fc14 and the SG driver to test some SCSI (SAS) targets. In doing so, I'm bumping up against what appears to be a 512KB maximum transfer size per command. Transfers up to 4MB sometimes work, but often they result in ENOMEM or EINVAL returned from the write() function in the SG driver. I could not find any good documentation on how the SCSI system in Linux works so I've been studying the source for drivers in drivers/scsi.

I see that there is a scsi_device struct that contains a request_queue struct that contains a queue_limits struct that contains an element called max_sectors. The SG driver seems to use this to limit the size of the reserve buffer it is willing to create. I see that there are several constants used to initialize max_sectors to 1024 which would result in the 512KB limit I see (with targets having 512 byte sectors). At this point I have several questions:

1) When the open() function for the sg driver gets called, who initializes the scsi_device struct with the default values?

2) Can I merely change the limits struct to arbitrary values after initialization and cause the SG ioctls to set the reserve buffer to allow greater values?......
