Re: [FP-Ops] New Foldy6 -- Help Thread

Well, what needs to be done is for you to start uploading some files so that foldy.nozero.org and fah-tool.org can show your blade.
Agreed. Foldy6 has now completed 8 of those big "system" proteins. I will focus on getting the stat reporting in place.
Looks like you were derailed with UPS solutions.

Perhaps this will help get the focus back on the tracks.

Totally freeware package of unixutils ported for Windows, plus the cURL utility (also freeware).

I condensed it to only the tools that you would need, plus a few extra that are helpful in some cases.

If you need to know how to set it up, that can be arranged. Both Jim, and I, are familiar with the process. It only takes a few minutes to download, and set it up.

Thanks, I will try to get this work going for Foldy6. I will do the down load and install in the coming week. Then call for help to finish the job. Hang in there, I may be old and slow ... but I will get this done.

This may help, when you can find the time.

Not sure of your FAH directory structure, but can be edited to fit your needs.

[ATT=1]

Just rename it to whatever.bat, and set it as a scheduled task to run every three(or less) hours.

It depends on you completing step one first though.

Where should I place these tools? What I mean is ... what should the directory structure be? Does it matter?

Directory structure for FAH clients is ... C:\FAHx

where x = 1, 2, 3, 4

I am looking at the uploader file you posted right now.

I created a batch file for it and put it in a directory structure C:\scripts\fahtool\

How do I set it to run every 3 hours?

Doesn't really matter. I would just do something simple.

Mine is D:\UnxUtils. (My D: drive is what I use for my programs and scripts, in case I have to format the C: drive.)

The main thing is, you will have to edit your Windows environment PATH variable to include the wbin folder in the UnxUtils dir.

This one. UnxUtils\usr\local\wbin

Do you know how to do that?

Edit: Fixed typos.

Windows Task Scheduler.

Set the .bat to run daily, then under the schedule tab (advanced button), set it to run every 3 hours, for a duration of 24 hours.

I will see if I can get you an image.

OK, did this. Except the longest option was to run every hour. No "3 hour" option in the menu.

No, I don't know how to edit the PATH variable. Point me in a direction.

I looked for help in the Windows Help and Support area, but couldn't find anything there.

I'll point. See if this helps.

Start > Control Panel > System > Advanced Tab, Environment Variables button > System variables > highlight CLASSPATH > click the Edit button

Add a semicolon at the end of the path and then the path to your batch file?

I think this is what he is after, anyway.

Naturally, you OK your way out and probably need to reboot to put the new info in memory at startup.

Close, but he needs to add the path to the wbin folder in the UnxUtils dir. Not the path to the .bat file.

Also, it is the PATH or Path variable. I am not sure about the CLASSPATH. I always use the Path one.

The path variable addition is needed so Windows knows where to find the unixutil exe's to run them when called from the .bat file.

I don't have Vista, but I will see if I can come up with an XP Pro tutorial. Should just be minor differences.

Edit: Clarified the PATH variable statement a bit.

I can't find anything longer than 1 hour too. 1 hour is a great frequency though.

Running 4 clients, the TwoFrogs script would be perfect.
I know there has been general ones ...
Wondering how handy TF is?

Thanks Steve for your tireless assistance!

I looked around some more and can't figure this out.

So a tutorial for the "Windows impaired" (that would be me) is needed.

I am sure that the one hour setting is fine. I just always set mine to every three hours. Is up to you.

My vid. tutes are for XP, and seem to be taking a while to get posted.

Vista Task Scheduler is quite a bit diff. Many more options and tabs. At least in Ultimate. Not sure about Home or Premium.

I did find a screen shot, and fixed it up a bit. So, I do know that the settings are there somewhere.

I believe that you have to go the tasks properties, then look in the triggers(?) tab. Might have to click the advanced button to show those settings. I can't get my hands on a Vista install tonight to confirm, but perhaps tomorrow.




Edit: Corrected typos.

I am not quite sure what is up with YouTube tonight, but it doesn't seem to want to give access to the tutorials that I uploaded hours ago. So, I will try it this way.

This is the one for editing your Windows Path variable.

Naturally, your path will actually be a bit diff. than mine. But it should give you the general idea.

For XP, so if Vista is much diff. just let me know.

Should be able to see it, as long as you have the flash player installed.

I have been to this screen. But the pull down for "trigger repeat duration" doesn't have a 3 hour option. It's either 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 12 hrs or 1 day.

I will leave it a 1 hour.

"Screencast.com is currently unavailable." .... but I figured out how to edit the PATH from usa2k's screenshot.

I added the following to the end of the current PATH:

;C:\UnxUtils\usr\local\wbin

==> Is that what I was supposed to do?

Well, I did this quickly. But if correct, it should work for both sites now.

File will be re-posted below later. I need to fix a few things.

Gotta run for a bit. A am late as it is.

Edit: Sortoupdated. :o

Change Log - Fixed the upload commands for the files going to foldy.nozero.org, to account for the separate dir. paths the files need to go to.

Edit2: Sortoagain.

Change Log - Lengthened the upload timeout to 30.
- Remove duplicate files from being uploaded twice.
