For the application im writing i need to access files on a network server. I have tried different ways, but none of them seem to work.When i try using impersonation i keep getting logon failure (1326). I did try few solutions i found on the net but none seem to work.
View 1 RepliesI'm using acrobat that returns unix paths instead of windows path's. So im wondering if there is a way in vb.net to convert the path to windows path.
i tried using:
docs(i) = javaScriptObj.path().ToString.Replace("/", "").Substring(1)
position = docs(i).IndexOf("")
docs(i) = docs(i).Substring(0, position) + ":" + docs(i).Substring(position + 1)
this only works on local files, but fails when im starting to use network drives.
I want to connect to a UNIX file path over our network and grab some .log files. Is this possible? If some do I need to do anything more than what I would do if I was opening files from a local path?
View 5 RepliesI was recently assigned to do some research on how to approach a project. Right now we have an old program written in tcl. From this tcl program ( running on VMS client computer), we are able to run unix commands to execute processes on a unix server. This is done via tcpip. Now, we are thinking of making upgrades to this system . We are wondering if this kind of thing was possible with Visual Basic. Are we able to run a VB program on windows computer to run UNIX commands on a server? If so, what issues might be brought up. If anyone has even the briefest guideline or tip on this,

View 1 RepliesI have an application in vb.net that runs over a network. Actually shortcut of the exe file is shared over LAN, so databases remain on one computer where the application has been installed. Everything works great except one thing. The logo of this application is saved in a database, that reports can pick to load picture. The logo file is chosen by the user, using OpenFileDialog and then saved in database. It is saved like D: Picturesfilename. jpg When I run the application from network (using shortcut that we have made to the main exe file), it given error on D:Picturesfilename.jpg because this doe not exits in the system that is running the shortcut. How to save the logo path in a way that it always finds it in application directory, when run over the network.
View 2 RepliesImagine a small application, myApp.exe, that contains one button and a textbox. You drop the application into any folder anywhere on your hard drive, run it, click the button and the textbox says something like this: The full path to the location of this application is:

How can the application discover the path to its own location?
This is a messy way of updating my application but I don't have much other way I can think of doing it. Here is the background information:
My app does not use ClickOnce or any deployment other than just copy/paste the files into a zip and uploading on the web My app has a "update check" form which checks for strings on my website to compare current version with a newer version
Now basically, it downloads correctly. Nothing about that is the problem. I use My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile to do so.
Currently, the user downloads and has to REPLACE the file. Its not an update, its just an "updated" application. I'm not fully sure how I will go about proceding this later, but currently I'm trying to do the first part of my pseudocode below. Which is to get the application's path so that I can "replace" it later programmatically so that it performs a "auto-update".
Pseudocode of what I am trying to accomplish (anything in bold is what I'm trying to accomplish that I haven't already done):
Get folder path of application Download the app update with My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile download Extract this updated folder and replace the contents with the current folder path of the application.
I have the download aspect complete. As far as this question goes, how do I get the folder and replace the contents? As far as extraction though, what are your thoughts on the best method to extract and then replace?
How I can put the path of the application into a textbox?
