Moving a web methods folder into webMethods? - webmethods

I had to switch computers at work and my WEBMethods project was not moved to the new computer. After installing WEBMethods we noticed that my project had not been copied over.
So I went in to the laptop and found the folder that contains the webmethods project.
I copied all of the files in that folder along with the folder name to my new computer.
I know want to import that directory to WEBMethods (I noticed WEBMethods stores all of the information in a huge, huge XML file)
This is the folder that contains all of my files for this specific project.
Question: How can I get it moved into WEBMethods?

Here's an easy way to move your package:
1) Login to the webMethods administrative web console
2) Navigate to Packages > Management. You'll see a list of all the packages on your integration server.
3) Identify the packages related to your project and for each package click on
4) On the "Archive" setup page, leave everything as is except for the archive name. Name it to something you'll easily recognize.
5) At the bottom of the "Archive" setup page, click on the "Create Archive" button. This will create a zip file in the following folder
IntegrationServer\replicate\outbound
6) Copy the zip file to the new computer at the following location:
IntegrationServer\replicate\inbound
7) In the webMEthods administrative web console of the new computer, navigate to Packages > Management and click on the "Install Inbound Releases" link.
8) Select the zip file in the select box
9) Click on "Install release".

While copying packages it is always recommended to export the package and load it to new location. You can either use the Administrator Page to get the package or in case if you dont have Administrator access, then in that case you can use your developer/ designer to get the package. Follow below steps:
Select the package you want to move.
For Developer, click on File Menu(top left corner)>Export option to save the package on your current system.
For Designer, right click on the package you want to move. Select Export from Server option and save the package on your current system.
The package is now saved as a ZIP file. Copy the ZIP file to the new system.
In your new system, place the ZIP file to- IntegrationServer\replicate\inbound folder.
Open webMethods Administrator page and Select Packages>Management option. Click on Install inbound Releases Link.
Select the package name from dropdown and click on Install release.
In case you dont have Administrator access, you can pass the zip file to the person who has the access and they can follow the steps 5 to 7
If your package exists on an accessible server(A server you can login from your current machine), then open the server session in which the package exists. Also open the server where you want to place the package in the same Developer/designer. Using this way you can simply copy the package from one server and paste to other.
But while using this, make sure that dependent packages if any, exists in the target server.

Its always better , if you create the Release. Go to Publish link and create the full Build or patch.whatever you want, add the subscription to it and send it to remotes system via clicking send release link.

Publish Intranet page is using another user's local publish path for the file being changed

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
When I publish an Intranet page update, I am getting an error that shows a user's local publish path for one of the files instead of using the web path. It isn't even MY local publish path..
When I publish to my local publish location, the file changed doesn't even publish/update locally.
When I run the project, it seems to work the first time (meaning no error), but when I perform that same task a subsequent time, this is when I get the Object reference error.
How can I fix the project/solution in order to hit the file/code I've changed?
We are using C#, ASP.NET core, Visual Studio 2019, on Windows 10.
I've tried cleaning and rebuilding, deleting upon build, restarting Visual Studio, restarting my system, get latest, undo checkout and start over.
Was replacing just the one aspx file I made code changes to.
Must replace the entire project of files after Publish, not just the select files you (think) you've worked on. Changes are made to files behind and beyond the targeted file(s).
Publish locally, backup Prod files, copy local files to Prod server, Voila!

add a existing javascript file to netbeans project, is it possible

I want to try netbeans for web development. I created a new local project. I have my remote server files (javascript, php etc) accessible locally on my computer using sftp in linux, now I just want to add these files to the project but there is no 'add files' possibility. Have Oracle forgotten something so obvious as add existing files? I can't believe it.
To add an external file to your NetBeans project:
Select the file in the file system that you want to add to your NetBeans project using a file manager (such as File Explorer on Windows).
Right-click and select Copy from the popup menu.
Within NetBeans go to your project and position the mouse over the target directory to which you want to copy the file. You can do this in the Projects panel or the Files panel as appropriate.
Right-click and select Paste.
That's all there is to it. This works on Linux and Windows. You can also do drag and drop, though on Linux the file is copied whereas on Windows the file is moved.
There is no menu option in NetBeans such as File -> Import existing file to do this. Just use an external file manager.
Update/clarification:
The instructions above only specify how to copy an existing file into an existing project.
There is no way to include an individual file that is external to the structure of a NetBeans project.
However, it is possible to create a symbolic link (junction) from a NetBeans project directory to an external directory. To do that open a Command Prompt window as an administrator and enter a command similar to this:
mklink /J D:\NetBeansProjects\HTML5DemoCss\nbProject\MyLink2 C:\sftp
That will create a new directory in your NetBeans project named MyLink2 which maps to an external directory named c:\sftp. You can then process files in that external directory C:\sftp as though they were within your project directory MyLink.

Cannot get PhpStorm to compare deployed files folder with local

Am following:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2016.3/comparing-deployed-files-and-folders-with-their-local-versions.html
I have my server setup in the remote host, and can see my directory, folders and files.
I would like to compare a whole folder on my local machine with what is on the server.
It works for individual files, but my developer has changed a whole load of files in the directory.
Please see screenshots.
I try and compare a directory from Remote host to the local server (see screenshot)
Says I failed to download the content of the file (...name of folder) - see screenshot
I try and compare one file (screenshot)
Works fine
How do I compare an entire folder, and see what has been changed?
As per official documentation from the link you have provided:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2016.3/comparing-deployed-files-and-folders-with-their-local-versions.html#d30440e104
Comparing a remote folder with its local version
Open the Remote Host tool window.
Select the folder in question. Then choose Tools | Deployment | Sync with Local on the main menu or Sync with local on the context menu of the selection.
In the Differences Viewer for Folders that opens, explore the differences and synchronize the files, where applicable.
The same but when invoked from Project View panel:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2016.3/comparing-deployed-files-and-folders-with-their-local-versions.html#d30440e154
Comparing a local folder with its remote version
This action is available only if you have a default server access configuration appointed.
Select the folder in question in the Project tool window, and then choose Tools | Deployment | Sync with Deployed to on the main menu.
In the Differences Viewer for Folders that opens, explore the differences and synchronize the files, where applicable.
In that Differences Viewer for Folders screen you can:
See a list of files with differences (or that do not exist of one of the sides) -- top part;
Choose any file and see the actual difference/compare them -- bottom part;
Also choose to upload/download such file(s) or merge them manually.

SSIS - Deploying package to file system

I've had to edit an already deployed package on a SSIS server on my computer. I now wish to deploy this package back to this server which is located in (from SQL Server Management Studio) serverName > Stored Packages > File System > packageName.
However, I don't know how to do so, and I've been trying to follow this https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140117(v=sql.105).aspx, under the "To deploy packages to file system" section but to no avail.
I remoted in to the server but I can't find this "deployment folder" in order to run the manifest file. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks!
I've managed to fix my problem as all I had to do was build the package on Visual Studio BIDS, by right clicking the project on the Solution Explorer on the right hand side and selecting Properties. I then clicked on Deployment Utility on the pop-up window and set the CreateDeploymentUtility to True. I then clicked OK.
I then right clicked on the project in the Solution Explorer again and clicked on Build in the pop-up drop-down menu.
After it was successfully built, I logged in to the Integration Services server on SQL Server Management Studio, and then navigated to Stored Packages > File System in the Object Explorer and right clicked on File System and clicked Import Package.
In the pop-up window I selected File System in the Package location field, and browsed and selected the built package located in the my project folder\bin\Deployment. I left the Package name field as the same as the original package and then overwrote the original package after clicking OK in the window.

is there a way to create single set-up/installable for some 5 ssis packages?

we have multiple ssis packages that need to be deployed on server .. is there a way to install all these together, perhaps?
Yes you can create a Deployment Manifest which will let you install all the packages in a project. To create this, you need to select the project Properties (on the Project menu), then select Deployment Utility and set CreateDeploymentUtility to True. By default, the path for this will be bin\Deployment under your project path. You can then copy everything in that folder to your destination and double-click the .SSISDeploymentManifest file to begin the install.
Alternatively, if you have sufficient rights, you can deploy a project directly from BIDS by entering the relevant destination server details in the project property pages (by right-clicking on the project name in Solution Explorer), then right-click and Deploy.
