    gzip -d to new file?

    Thanks! That did it! I don't know if anyone help with this - when I do the unzipping, the new file is full of junk characters instead of the actual data from the zipped file. If /folder/datafile.dat.gz contains '20070905 10' the unzipped contains something like...

    gzip -d to new file?

    I want to unzip a compressed file to another file in another directory. I thought I could use: gzip -d /folder/datafile.dat.gz > /otherfolder/newfile.dat where newfile.dat would have the uncompressed contents of datafile.dat.gz. I want datafile.dat.gz to remain unchanged. When I try the...

    Hi- Trying to install Perl 5.6.1 and when I downloaded the zip file from ActiveState I got the following error- C:\Utils\ActivePerl-5.6.1.638-MSWin32-x86>installer.bat Win32API::Registry object version 0.22 does not match bootstrap parameter 0.23 a t...

    trying to install date:calc

    Yeah, it has to be Date::Calc. I'm trying to make a minor change to an existing program, we don't want to make a big change to it. The original documentation says just to type 'install Date-Calc' at the ppm prompt. When I try that, I just get 'Can't find any package that provide Date-Calc'

    trying to install date:calc

    Thanks- in all the zipped files I downloaded, I don't have any .ppd files. Is there a non-ppm way to install these files?

    trying to install date:calc

    I tried this, having it read it on another thread: C:\perl>perl -MCPAN -e Install Date::Calc Perl lib version (v5.6.1) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.8) at D:\oracle \product\10.1.0\db_1\perl\5.6.1\lib\MSWin32-x86/Config.pm line 21.

    trying to install date:calc

    Thanks - I tried that and got a message 'ppm install failed: Can't find any package that provide Date-Calc' That's why I was thinking it had to be downloaded separately. Any thoughts?

    trying to install date:calc

    Hi- I don't use perl much, so excuse my dense questions.... I've installed perl 5.8.8, and I need to install the Date_Calc module. This version of Perl has a gui type of PPM where I can put a url or point to a windows (I'm on winXP) folder. I've downloaded date:calc 5.4 to folder and unzipped...

    Installing an external Perl module

    I just tried this method, installing the same module on a windows xp machine. I keep getting the message 'Perl lib version (v5.6.1) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.8) at D:\oracle \product\10.1.0\db_1\perl\5.6.1\lib\MSWin32-x86/Config.pm line 21.' Am I supposed to upgrade the perl...

    Filedef on external server

    We've found the answer. We went to the Administration console, then Configuration, then Reporting Server, and changed the IBI_REPORT_USER to a username which also had read and write privileges on the network drive. When we did this, the report ran fine.

    Filedef on external server

    I'm trying to access a datafile on a server different from the Webfocus server. I've tried putting the entire path to the file - \\servername\folder\data.txt But I just get a FOC229 'Problem accessing external file' error. The path is correct and the file exists. If I put the same file on...

    Accessing remote flat file

    I should probably have been more specific. I need webfocus 5.2, running on Win Server 2003 box, to access a flat on another windows Server 2003. I looks like I can just hard code the entire \\servername\directory... Is that the only way?

    Accessing remote flat file

    I'm trying to use Webfocus 5.2 to access a flat file on a remote server. We've been able to do this by just mapping a drive from the webfocus server to the server containing the flat file, but is there another, more secure way to do this?
