Cannot find path of image in Umbraco? - umbraco

I am using firebug to inspect an image in one of my companies Test sites. Some of the images have this path
/CropUp/listnav/media/xxxxx.aaa
xxx=ImageName
aaa=Extension
But the path it is giving does not exist? And from what I can see there are no virtual directories set up? What is going on here? Can any help?

There may be a url rewrite happening..?
We do this for our imagegen images in order to have proper image extensions and other querystring configuration options whilst being transparent to the end user and seo-bots, etc..
Check to see if the images may be in the ~/media/ folder in your filesystem. That's where umbraco handled images and files are stored by default.
The only other thing i could suggest without any more info is to checkout grepWin - it's a fantastic gui for windows answer to unixs regex searching - it's great for finding anything anywhere in the filesystem.

Contao Backend Styling / layout missing

Hi contao developer out there,
Anybody knows why the styling of the whole admin backend's missing.
I attach a screenshot, let me know if anyone knows something.
enter image description here
Looks like you have installled your Contao into a sub directory and setup your base url incorrect.
Have a look into system/config/pathconfig.php and verify the path is the same as in your browser (i.e. return ''; for an installation in the root dir and return '/some-dir'; for an installation in an subdir).
You should also check with web-developer tools as to which URLs for the Backend CSS it tries to load. Usually this already points out what in the base url is wrong.
Last thing, you might have set up some "strange" rewrite rules in your .htaccess file which may cause these problems.
Problem solved.
The fact that, the problem comes from the server configuration.
The Php process wasn't have enough permission, so it takes me some time to realise and knowing that I need to change the apache modul version to cgi/fpm mode.
This grants the php to recreate and generate the assets including js/css in asset folder. (at least from my own observation) and it works now.

iOS:How to check if an directory already exists on the FTP server while uploading?

I am working on an App, in which I want to upload images and pdf to the FTP server. I am using this reference ref.All is working good. The images and pdf are getting uploaded on the server with proper names and sizes.
But, now I want to check if the directory is already exists on the server or not. I am not able to get it to work with this library.
So my question is that how to check directory on ftp,if directory is there then upload the files if not then first create directory on ftp and then upload files onto that directory?
Any Ideas.. ? Any help will be appreciated.
Different FTP servers will answer the LIST request in differing ways, so there is no single answer to this question. RFC959 says on the matter:
Since the information on a file may vary widely from system
to system, this information may be hard to use automatically
in a program, but may be quite useful to a human user.
Using the CWD request to change into the directory in question, and detecting a successful response will detect the directory, however that leaves you in that directory as a potentially unrequired side effect.
For these reasons, as well as others, you may find more modern protocols such as SSH (which includes a file transfer feature) to be more useful. You may find the DLSFTPClient CocoaPod useful.

In org-mode, how do I keep the original path to images when using #+INCLUDE:?

I can use:
#+INCLUDE:
to include an org file in another org file, which allows me to assemble, say, a website from various org files. I'm exporting from the C-c C-e exporter in org-mode 7.5.
I could maintain a quite complex publication this way. This modular approach is quite common in, e.g. LaTeX and Texinfo publications.
However, links to images no longer work from the #+INCLUDEd org files. What seems to be happening is that the path to the images is taken as being from the org file that I am exporting from, rather than the actual org file that references the image.
The only ways I can see to resolve this are to:
use a flat file structure; or
make the image path from the referencing file (which I might not know in advance) rather than itself.
Neither of these is really sustainable.
How do I tell org to use the correct image path from its own relevant org file rather than the parent org file?
From what I know of the exporter, INCLUDE files are inserted into the document before export. Therefore the content is part of the document before it starts following paths to reach any links to files (images).
After a bit of testing you likely will need to use absolute file paths. Since you move between Windows and Linux your best bet would be to use a consistent scheme on both starting from your home directory.
Like that you can make the Org link:
[[~/path/to/image.jpg]], which will work on both systems (assuming you have set %HOME% on Windows).
Option 1 is potentially an alternative (although I agree it wouldn't be ideal at all), whereas the second option would have obvious pitfalls if you INCLUDE the file in more than one future document.

Get Plone 4 to import pictures as images and not files when uploading with webdav

I remember back in Plone 2 days I found a simple hack to make one CMFPhoto folder receive webdav files as images (and show them as a gallery).
In Plone4 the images are received as content type files which are not very useful.
Other mass uploading options seem not to be updated to recent versions of Zope/Plone, except uploadify, which makes my server unable to start when installed with buildout.
Functioning webdav would be ideal
Thanks for any ideas, although I can't say I have understood the framework enough to use just a hint
Steen
The short answer is that you need to take a look in the Content Type Registry tool within your site and figure out the settings related to the image (png, jpg) extensions and mime-type that are configured for your site. Visit the Zope Management Interface of your site, and go to ./content_type_registry in he root of your site to take a look.
The more complicated answer is that folders in Plone have a method called PUT_factory() that controls what items get created as. Different folder types can behave differently, but all stock folder types in Plone and most add-ons should obey (unless a bug) the settings in the Content Type Registry.

Finding unused images in a Rails app?

I'm familiar with tools like Deadweight for finding CSS not in use in your Rails app, but does anything exist for images? I'm sitting in a project with a massive directory of assets from working with a variety of designers and I'm trying to trim the fat in this project. It's especially a pain when moving assets to our CDN.
Any thoughts?
It depends greatly on the code using the images. It's always possible that a filename is computed (by concatenating two values or string substitution etc) so a simply grepping by filename isn't necessarily enough.
You could try running wget (probably already installed if you've got a linux machine, otherwise http://users.ugent.be/~bpuype/wget/ ) to mirror your whole site. Do this on the same machine or network if you can, it'll crawl your whole site and grab all the images
# mirror mysite.com accepting only jpg, png and gif files
wget -A jpg,png,gif --mirror www.mysite.com
Once you've done that, you're going to have a second copy of your site's hierarchy containing any images that are actively linked to by any page reachable by crawling your site. You can then backup your source image directory, and replace it with wget's copy. Next, monitor your log files for 404's pertaining to gif/jpg/png files. Hope that helps.
Finding unsed images should be easier than CSS.
Just find *.jpg *.png *gif with glob, put those filenames to dictionary or array and find those filenames againt html, css, js files, remove filename if found and you will get unused list, and move those images to another folder with same directory structure (It will be good for restoring for just in case)
Basically like this, and of course for the file names that encrypted/encoded/obcuscated will not work.
require "fileutils"
img=Dir.glob("**/*.jpg")+Dir.glob("**/*.png")+Dir.glob("**/*.gif")
data=Dir.glob("**/*.htm*")+Dir.glob("**/*.css")+Dir.glob("**/*.js")
puts img.length.to_s+" images found & "+data.length.to_s+" files found to search against"
content=""
data.each do |f|
content+=File.open(f, 'r').read
end
img.each do |m|
if not content=~ Regexp.new("\\b"+File.basename(m)+"\\b")
FileUtils.mkdir_p "../unused/"+File.dirname(m)
FileUtils.mv m,"../unused/"+m
puts "Image "+m+" moved to ../unused/"+File.dirname(m)+" folder"
end
end
PS: I used fileutils, because normal makedirs and mv are not works in my windows version of ruby
And I am not good at ruby, so please double check it before you use it.
Here is the sample results I ran in root folder of sample rails folder in my windows
---\ruby>ruby img_coverage.rb
5 images found & 12 files found to search against
Image depot/public/images/test.jpg moved to ../unused/depot/public/images folder
If your image URLs often come from many computed / concatenated strings and other stuff hard to track programmatically within your source code, and your application is in heavy use, you could try a soft "honeypot" approach like this:
Move all the assets to a different directory, e.g. /attic
Set up an empty /images directory (or what your asset directory is called)
Set up a .htaccess file (if you're on Apache of course) that, using the -f flag, redirects all requests to nonexistent image files to a script
The script copies the requested file from the /attic into the /images directory and displays it
The next request to that image will go directly to the image, because it exists now
After some time and sufficient usage, all needed images should have been copied to the assets directory.
It's a "soft" approach of course because a dialog / situation could have not been opened/entered/used by any user during that time (things like error message icons for example). But it will recognize all used files, no matter where they're requested from, and might help sort out much of the unneeded files.
If your file manager supports it, try sorting your images directory by the files' "last accessed" date. Files that haven't been accessed in a long time most likely aren't used any longer.
Along the same lines, you can also filter or grep through your web server's logs and make a list of the image files that it has served up in the last several months. Any images not in this list are likely unused.
