Hi

Can anyone tell is it possible to do the export to unix directory from windows using dscmdexport utility ? I have searched the forum and could not find the answer for this.

I did the export to windows it worked but i tried to export it to unix I am getting path not found error.

dscmdexport /H=server /U=username /P=password projectname \home\username\filename.dsx...

I also tried the backslash in unix path name...no use...

Thanks

Hi Kaps,

Like you already noticed. UNIX uses "/" (forward slash) in the path.

Code: Select all

dscmdexport /H=server /U=username /P=password projectname /home/username/filename.dsx
In the UNIX prompt, try to go to the specified file path and see whether the specified directory exists and you have permission to write to that directory.

Yes. I have checked everything...It's not working...It gives the warning and writes the export to local dorectory.

Thanks

You would need to use Samba or some other tool to mount a UNIX filesystem so you can write to it from Windows.

Thanks for the reply Kduke...I see what you are saying. First we need to establish connection between windows and unix then only we can do it.

Thanks
