I'm trying to setup a signup form on my webpage, once the user creates there account, I would like to automatically create a folder of what the user typed in a input with the ID of cfinput, the problem i'm running into, is I am not experienced in the jQuery zones, I focus on creating front-end design using CSS and HTML languages. Summarization, I can't figure out how to create a copy of a folder named base_org and change it's name to what the user wrote in the input listed above,
Any help is greatly appreciated, if you have any questions just comment and I will try to re-edit my post to make it more clear.
JavaScript cannot do this on the client side. You need a backend which processes the signup form submission and creates a copy of your base directory.
A general solution is to call the system's copy command. On Linux, you can copy a directory like this:
cp -r /path/to/base_org /path/to/new_folder
You can execute the shell command in your preferred backend language. For example in PHP, you can use shell_exec:
// process the form first and put username in $username
shell_exec("cp -r /path/to/base_org /path/to/$username");
Make sure the username won't contain any invalid or special characters or other shell commands.
Another option would be to use the backend language's API to copy the directory.

I am using this tool to create a simple GUI with it's easy to understand set up: https://github.com/UniversalGUI/UGUI
But from what I understand from its guides that it needs executables to be in different names so that it can differentiate itself and the form sending it. The project I am doing needs me to use the same command but with different arguments such as:
<cmd executable="xdg-open">
<arg>/home/kali/Downloads/</arg>
</cmd>
I need to open other folders in different parts of the program using that executable. In the guides, the person did use an .exe file which I figured is a script included in its folder and I did try to replicate it but to no luck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHMRroZ7AAw
The tool isn't used by many but those who do, do you know how to get over this issue?
I'm relatively new to shell in general, only recently started learning bash scripting and how to use it in automation. Problem is that I use zsh as my daily shell and would like to get into habit of using command line text editor and specifically nano, at least for now.
To do so (and also to practice making scripts and tweaking configuration files) I tried to make a function within .zshrc which would cd me into a particular directory I use for my Free Writing library, then create a file with today's date as its name and enter interactive nano session.
Code of said function
function ok_go() {
cd ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Freewriting
nano $(date %d.%m.%Y)
}
Problem is nano doesn't really get the name, it cd's into the right directory, starts a file editor but the name is blank. But for some reason, if I use nano $(date %d.%m.%Y) interactively (call it myself) it works as I intended, i.e start the edit of the file with a name of something like 21.04.2021.txt
Don't really get why it doesn't work from a function call and how can I make it behave like a want. Thanks!
I would like to track changes to one config file. The reason for this is that multiple users access it to solve different issues, but every now and then those fixes break something else. diff function in Zabbix shows that a file was changed, but I would like Zabbix to also track what changed. Is there a combination of triggers that would let me do that? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Do you store file checksum or contents in the item? In any case, there is no built-in way to do that, but you can implement it with a script.
If checksum, you will need a way to store the previous version, new version and run the diff command. The easiest would be a userparameter that would do a diff between a temporary copy of the file and the current copy, then copy the current file over the temporary copy. In this case, you would store diff results directly in an item and your trigger would check that the last value is not an empty string. See https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/items/userparameters for more information on userparameters.
If you are storing file contents already, presumably you want to reuse them. This would be a bit more complicated, as you would have to kick off the script whenever a new value arrives - maybe a special trigger could kick off an action that would compare the last two values (probably using the API), then push the result in another item that has another trigger. Unless you have a good reason to do it this way, I'd opt for the first approach.
Make a copy off your file
file.txt.copy or something like that. Make this file only writable by zabbix.
Create an item and trigger on zabbix to check when the file was changed (using diff or checksum)
Create a action on zabbix to execute a script that will
1 - diff between file.txt and file.txt.copy and send this diference to your email
2 - Copy file.txt to file.txt.copy so you can do the diff next time the file change.
To reate a action with script.
Create a action on zabbix. Go to "operations" tab. Select "Remote Command" from option.
Choose custom script.
Put the script with the whole path and arg's.
Sample
/opt/script/my_script.sh
The user zabbix must have permission to ruin the script.
Zabbix docs
I'm exporting an old release 1.9.2 and importing to 3.0.2.
Each module has dozens of videos that I play via an URL/link, which points to my own .PHP program on the site (and that wraps a Camtasia video).
I found that in 3.0.2, the link opens on a separate page, unless I edit each link by going to "Appearance", then "Display" and setting it to "Embed".
So I would like to write a mySQL update script to automatically set this flag for all such links (I will add a where clause to my script name).
I checked database in PHP/MyAdmin, and didn't see any likely table names.
You should attempt to use the admin tools to update everything, go to your moodle installation's main URL.
Then go to the site administration. After /admin in the url, add /tool/replace and go there.
You can there enter what you want to find in the db, and replace it with another value. Just be carefull with this tool and make a backup before you begin.
Did someone ever set up Zabbix to work with HP OpenView ?
Zabbix docs doesn't mention much information on that.
I know I have to create a media linked to a script.
In that script I have to use the opcmsg command but I don't understand the part which involves the database.
Can someone who ever experienced it drives me to the solution ?
Regards
You are missing media script doc. Parse input in your media script and process it with 'opcmsg'.
Try to find similar alert scripts (concept, not code) for your inspiration - https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/notifications/media/script
And finally please publish your script with documentation (I recommend Github + Zabbix share).
Finally we have decided to create a media script which is writing output to a file.
Then that file will be monitored by a HP OpenView agent.
The steps are the following:
Create media script which is referencing your script :
In my case the script is named hpov.sh
The location of your script has to be referenced in your server config file (zabbix_server.conf) this way : AlertScriptsPath=/path/to/zabbix/scripts
Create an action which will be triggered on problems. Specify the macro you want in the first tab. The condition you want in the second one (leave as default). And finally set the third tab "Operations" like that:
You are free to change Users who are concerned
As the documentation says, link that media script to a user of your choice
That's it !
