Moving files (Error before enter in a custom action)

dranakan

Hello,

I have developed an action to move files in a structure directories : /year/month/day. When I add a file, the directories are created and the file is moved. If the file to add has the same name than a present file, this one is renamed before the copy.

All is good with the web interface (to add the file) but with the CIFS there is a error message saying that the file is yet present (Windows message)(but I doesn't enter in the debug mode or printing in the console. It doesn't enter in my action)…
It's like it try to interprete that the file will move… The Cifs does some check… but I have no idea than what it does….

In my action : (I always rename the files to find the bug… but I have fund nothing ) :

(Global) :
private Random random = new Random();

(in the method) : 
   …
  newName += System.currentTimeMillis() + random.nextInt();
  fileFolderService.move(nodeToMove, parentNodeRef, newName);
  …

‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Has someone an idea of this behavior :?:

Hello,

Has someone an idea about the work that do the cifs before executing the action :?:

I have test without moving in directories (just changing name) and all is ok.

Now I show you my code (here, the file will be moved in the directory "newRep").

(Global) :
private Random random = new Random();
…
public void executeImpl(Action action, NodeRef actionedUponNodeRef) {
      if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
         logger.debug("Action : OrganiseFileInDirectory");
      }
      // Check that the node still exists
      if (this.nodeService.exists(actionedUponNodeRef) == true) {
         try {
            if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
               logger.debug("Begin");
            }
            // Create tool to manage nodes
            NodeManager nodeManager = new NodeManager(nodeService,
                  fileFolderService, mimetypeService, contentService);

            // Get the name of the node
            String nameDocument = nodeManager
                  .getNameOfNodeRef(actionedUponNodeRef);
            
            // Directory to create
            String newRep = "newRep";
            
            // Test that it is not newRep coming (the action is not generate by the creation of this directory)
            if (nameDocument.equals(newRep)){
               return;
            }
            
            // Get infos on the present directory
            NodeRef parentNodeRef = nodeService.getPrimaryParent(
                  actionedUponNodeRef).getParentRef();
            
            // Creation of a directory
            NodeRef nodeNewRep = nodeService.getChildByName(parentNodeRef,
                  ContentModel.ASSOC_CONTAINS, newRep);
            if (nodeNewRep == null) {
               // Create the newRep
               FileInfo fileInfo = fileFolderService.create(parentNodeRef,
                     newRep, ContentModel.TYPE_FOLDER);
               nodeNewRep=fileInfo.getNodeRef();
            }

            // Move the file in the directory
            nameDocument += System.currentTimeMillis() + random.nextInt();
            fileFolderService.move(actionedUponNodeRef, nodeNewRep, nameDocument);

         } catch (Exception e) {
            if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
               logger.debug(e.getMessage());
               logger.debug(e.toString());
            }
         }

         if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
            logger.debug("End");

         }

      }

   }

I can use it with the UI, but in the CIFS, I can put the file just one time (it doesn't enter in the code, just popup to say that the file exist).

Need your help 🙂

dranakan

I have try to rename the file and after moving it, but I have always the same problem 😞

Rename the file is ok

…
// Move the file in the directory
nameDocument += System.currentTimeMillis() + random.nextInt();
            
fileFolderService.move(actionedUponNodeRef, parentNodeRef,
nameDocument);         
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

But rename the file and after moving it : "Impossible to add the file, it exists"

…
// Move the file in the directory
nameDocument += System.currentTimeMillis() + random.nextInt();      
fileFolderService.move(actionedUponNodeRef, parentNodeRef, nameDocument);
            
fileFolderService.move(actionedUponNodeRef, nodeNewRep,null);

Have you tried to run your rule in background ("Run rule in background" in the rule wizard step 3)?
It may be that your script kicks in before cifs has completed the save process.

dranakan

Thanks for your response Loftux,

Yes, I have try to run it in background … but I have the same result.

It is perhaps a bug behavior… I am not sure because I think this action could be yet created by other people (I think that it's useful automatic task). As nobody says that the code have a important mistake, I have created a bug report : https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/JLAN-84

loftux

Just another thing to try (as workaround),
can you make a copy, and move that copy to your target folder. Then as a last step delete original.
Making a copy in Alfresco is inexpensive, it only makes a new db entry, it still points to the same content file (until one of them is changed).

dranakan

same result…

I have do like this :

…
fileFolderService.move(actionedUponNodeRef, parentNodeRef,nameDocument);
fileFolderService.copy(actionedUponNodeRef, nodeNewRep,null);‍‍‍‍

Hello,

I have also this problem (I know… I am negative…

) with the FTP (no action started).
With the UI, the file is uploaded, the action start (all I want is done), but I need to give another name (on the properties page) to continue.

I think Alfresco keeps some information in cache or somewhere else about the content in the repository. Perhaps I need to clear this information…

If you have any ideas… don't be afraid to write something… I share this page 🙂

Thanks

luminary_becky

I was under the impression that if you had rules on the UI that they needed to be re-written (in effect written twice) for the CIFs interface. In what, I am not sure, but when we looked at it, it was a double overhead.

dranakan

Hello,

I have not yet found the resolution… I have seen that in 1 case, the problem is also with the UI.

If I upload the file in the UI, and deselect (OFF) "Modify all properties when this page closes". The file can be upload, the action start and all is ok (I can put any time same file name.

If I upload the file in the UI, and select (ON) "Modify all properties when this page closes", then the second page (Modify Content Properties) come, I let the name of the document and after that a error message come : Modify Content Properties:

  Please correct the errors below then click OK.

The same problem that with the CIFS or FTP : Alfresco says that the file exists before enter in my action.

dranakan

Hello,

Now I am sure that it is a cache problem (or something like this). If I am waiting enough (random between 2 sec or 10 minutes) before putting the second file with same name then I can put and I don't get the error message.

To help people helping me… I have sniff the bad response than I dislike… :
I have a trame like this : (and also 6 more with protocol smb. I have replace last number IP by client or server).

3241   323.986259   200.200.200.CLIENT    200.200.200.SERVER   SMB   NT Create AndX Response, FID: 0x0000, Error: STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_COLLISION‍

It is not a surprise to see that… but perhaps someone could see one way that I can follow…

Thanks
