similar to: shared but not to delete!

Hi, I try to delete the files in a directory. While the command invisible(lapply( list.files( "DeleteThis" ), function(x) file.remove(paste("DeleteThis", x, sep="/" )) )) works, I keep thinking that there should be a more direct command. "unlink" looks like a good candidate but whith this I only arrive to either delete the whole directory or nothing

Colleagues, I have encountered a weird problem (FreeBSD 8.2, samba34-3.4.14). A user can create files in a samba share but cannot delete files from it (unless she is the owner of the file). The user is a member of a group with rwx permissions on this directory granted by a Posix ACL entry. The user can create and delete files in the directory from the shell on the file server (which is correct

This **may** indeed be a myth (for a long time now) re-cited again and again and - could no longer be valid today - could apply only

!!! DON'T TRY THE CODE IN THIS EMAIL AT HOME !!! Well, unlink() does what it is supposed to do, so you could argue that there is nothing wrong with it. Also, nobody would call unlink() on "~", right? The situation is not so simple, however. E.g. if you happen to have a directory called "~", and you iterate over all files and directories to selectively remove some of them,

Context ------- I am one of the active developers of the open source application "Back in Time" which uses "rsync" as backend and I want to fix an open issue: "Back in Time"-Bug: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues/994#issuecomment-1724211507 "Back in Time" uses "--link-dest" to reduce traffic and storage by hardlinking

Hi all, The guidance provided so far has been really helpful, and has helped a great deal to bringing down wasted energy on finding and executing a viable path. I am now at the final due action to complete our Dovecot application to our use-case, but am stuck on an issue that I cannot find any easily accessible documentation on. Generally this is what has been done: 1. Uploaded the enterprise

Dear all, I was wondering if there is a simple way to avoid printing the multiple cross-validation automatic output to the console of recursive partitionning functions like rpart or mvpart. For example... > data(spider) > mvpart(data.matrix(spider[,1:12])~herbs+reft+moss+sand+twigs+water,spider,xv="1se",xvmult=100) *X-Val rep : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Hi, it''s me again. Ok, so I''m using the Draggable class, and it''s great. However, dragging something often causes undesirable selecting of text on the page while performing the drag operation.

dear rsync developers: I use rsync as a convenient synchronization tool. I know it was not made therefore, but it is very convenient. the only drawback I see is that the delete option is "harsh"---if I edit on machine A, and then forget that A is the updated machine, an rsync pull from machine B will delete my new files on A (if I use --delete). most of the time, this is what

Hi, all, I'm looking a utility for removing a directory from within R. Currently, I'm using: foo <- function(...) { mydir <- tempdir() dir.create(mydir, showWarnings = FALSE, recursive = TRUE) on.exit(system(sprintf("rm -rf %s", mydir))) ## do some stuff in "mydir" invisible() } However, this is assumes "rm" is available. I know of

Hi, I have a file: d:\foo.txt and want to delete this. I tried: system("del d:/foo.txt") works not system("notepad d:/foo.txt") works Is it possible that I can't delete files or do I have misunderstood something? (del is a DOS-command. The "string works" under DOS "\") Thanks a lot Thomas ----- Windows XP R 1.6.2 (update!, I know)

Your report is most appreciated, though it lacked quite a lot of detail that could've expedited the investigation why it happened. With the further information we can hopefully figure out why you are experiencing the problems you reported. There is no offense intended.

This is a curious thing. I'm syncing two directories, containing some 250 subdirectories totalling around 11,000 files. This: rsync --password-file=/usr/local/etc/rsync/.passwd --delete -rtv --exclude-from=/usr/local/etc/rsync/excludes /usr/local/sourcedir username@destserver.com::modulename ...works fine if both directories are already nearly in sync. Deleting a few files from the source

rsync (2.5.[67]) --delete fails on dirs with the w bit cleared. (example below) Rsync will sync a dir with w bit clear, but will not remove it with --delete. This is not a big problem, but it will create situations where there are 'orphaned' files. Has anyone else had this problem? It looks like a change would be needed in robust_unlink (util.c). This function would have to do a chmod

I had intended to come back to this but because I didn't really think I had anything to add to the discussion I put it at a low enough priority that I forgot about it. But I saw your bug report and was surprised to see that I was already unhelpful on this topic but because that original poster didn't have access to do an rm while you are trying to get a performance boost. I have

Dear list, (R 2.12.0, Windows 7, 64bit) I recently tried to install a new package ("spacetime"), that depends on "sp" among others. I already had the last one installed, but there was probably a newer version on CRAN, so the command > install.packages("spacetime") also gave me: also installing the dependencies ?sp?, ?zoo?, ?xts? sp was already loaded in this
