If there is a space in the directory in the adb pull operation, say
adb pull data/tombstones "c:/Program files/myApp"
is any other way to do it besides adding quotation mark on it "c://Program Files/myApp" to accomplish the same thing?
You can try using the short name of the folder. for program files it is progra~1.
you can see short name with dir /x.
I've never tried it with ADB, but I think it should work.

this is my first ever question. Okay..
Relevant to this problem :
I am using cmder
I am new to the terminal
I am using a windows PC
I'm following a tutorial on how to install mongoDB locally, after running the setup my first problem came when
On the terminal The tutor did
Cd ~
To go to the home directory but when I tried the same command on the cmder I received
The system cannot find the path specified
So I navigated manually using "cd.. " to
c:\Users\<username>
Which I think is the home directory，I created the ".bash_profile" file and saved the following commands in it
alias mongod = "/c/program\ files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongod.exe"
alias mongo = "/c/program\ files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongo.exe"
But when I run the mongod or test if it's installed completely it returns
'mongod' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Please I don't know my way round the terminal that much, please be detailed with answers
Thanks in advance
alias mongod="/c/Program\ Files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongod.exe"
alias mongo="/c/Program\ Files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongo.exe"
Removing spaces and making uppercase the first letters of program files worked for me.
cmder doesn't interpret shell arguments like ~, which means tilde won't work in paths. Also, be aware the way you spelled Cd. It can cause an error in other command line tools (case sensitive ones like Git Bash).
1 - If you're using cmder/cmd.
Use doskey to create an alias/shortcut:
Create C:\bat\macros.txt to store your macros/aliases and paste:
cdhome=cd /d %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
mongo="C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin\mongo.exe" $*
mongod="C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin\mongod.exe" $*
Rename everything you want but %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%. $* at the end means the command accepts arguments, like mongo --version.
Keep in mind that .bash_profile isn't related with cmder/cmd, that's why your mongo commands are there too.
Then Windows + R and type regedit.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\
Right-click and add a new "String Value". Name it Autorun.
Right-click it and modify the value data to DOSKEY /MACROFILE="C:\bat\macros.txt"
2 - If you're using Git Bash, Hyper terminal, etc.
On .bash_profile, just remove the spaces around the equals sign. Like:
alias mongod="/c/program\ files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongod.exe"
alias mongo="/c/program\ files/MongoDB/server/4.4/bin/mongo.exe"
or on Windows, you can just go to System properties/Advanced/Environment Variables. Under System variables, find the Variable called Path. Click edit, then New and paste in the path of the mongoDB bin folder:
C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin
keep in mind to write version your mongodb correctly in path, now its 4.4
By adding a path to the path variable you can access the .exe files from that path no matter where you are in the directory. It serves the same purpose as the .bash_profile file. Doing it this way allows this to work with windows cmd prompt or cmder as well. Upon launching, the bash emulator gets the environment variables from Windows anyways.
After adding the mongoDB path, open cmd prompt or any bash emulator and type in mongo. It will load up mongo.exe regardless of your current working directory.
Be Specific about the spaces after alias.
alias alias_name ="path.."
I faced alot of issues despite so many answers so this worked for me.
1.First install git and hyper terminal
2.Click the '~' sign to enter the home directory and then make a new file ".bash_profile"
Enter the command "vim .bash_profile"
Now enter 'i' key to enter the insert mode
Copy paste the exact command below:
alias mongod="C:/Program\ Files/MongoDB/Server/5.0/bin/mongod.exe"
alias mongo="C:/Program\ Files/MongoDB/Server/5.0/bin/mongo.exe"
(make sure that you use forward slash '/' for path and "\" backward slash to indicate space between program and files)
enter esc
write the command ':wq!' and click enter
restart hyper terminal and check the installation by running the command 'mongo --version'
Use git bash instead of CMDER
OR
Try to install mongosh from this link:
[1]: https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/shell?jmp=docs
And after setup go to hyper terminal and write mongosh => to connect to MongoDB on port 27017 and then you will see => test>
now you are ready to use the Database and you can write help to see Shell Help.
Check if mongo.exe or mongod.exe files are exist. In my case the bin directory had mongos.exe instead of mongo.exe.
When I try to pull a file using adb pull <file>, it used to be automatically saved in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Now, whenever I use the same command, it's saved in C:\Users\khibr\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot. I can't remember if I did anything to change the path, but I want to change it back. is There any way to do so?
you can always use the following syntax to change where you want the file to be stored after the pull command.
adb pull file.txt C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Another way to do this is to open the command prompt from the directory where you want to pull the files to.
For a program I am using ADB to transfer a file from the computer to mobile phone.
Using adb push overwrites every existent file and thus takes ages to finish.
adb sync does only push the file if it exists on the phone AND contains other data than the local version.
Is there any midway solution? I want the file to be transferred if it doesn't exist or is changed, but not, if it is the same as on the computer. Is there a way to achieve this?
The best way to do this is to first check if the file exists and if it does then sync it and if it does not then push.
Skeleton for a batch script to do this:
FILENAME_RESULT=$(adb shell ls / | tr -d '\015'|grep '^fileName$')
if [ -z "$FILENAME_RESULT" ];
then
REM adb push because the file was not found
else
REM adb sync because the file was found
fi
adb push --sync /local/file /sdcard/remote/file
From adb --help
adb push [--sync] [-zZ] LOCAL... REMOTE copy local files/directories to device --sync: only push files that are newer on the host than the device. -z: enable compression -Z: disable compression
There's a really easy way to do this with adb-sync (https://github.com/google/adb-sync).
adb-sync is a tool to synchronize files between a PC and an Android device using the ADB (Android Debug Bridge).
I've been trying to make ssh connection using Cygwin, but it doesn't recognize my id_rsa public key file.
My command lines are as follows:
$ssh XXX#XXX -i /home/XXX/.ssh/id_rsa
Warning: Identity file /home/XXX/.ssh/id_rsa not accessible: No such file or directory.
Permission denied (publickey,XXX).
(Sorry, I used XXX for the private information.)
I copied my .pub file to C:\cygwin\home\XXX.ssh folder. But it still spits out the same error message.
Thank you so much in advance.
Background
Most cygwin executables, map Unix path /home/XXX/.ssh/id_rsa to Windows path C:\cygwin64\home\XXX\.ssh\id_rsa. Except that ssh.exe maps the same Unix path to Windows path C:\home\XXX\.ssh\id_rsa.
That is if you do cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa, it will print out the contents of C:\cygwin64\home\XXX\.ssh\id_rsa, but if you do ssh XXX#XXX -i /home/XXX/.ssh/id_rsa it will try to read the key from C:\home\XXX\.ssh\id_rsa.
I assume this is bug in Cygwin. In any event, this is a workaround that worked for me (on Windows 10 and the latest version of Cygwin as of October 2020).
Solution
Open Administrator command prompt. Go to C:\ and issue the command mklink /D home c:\cygwin64\home
That's it.
But for me tat least, once I solved the above problem, I started getting the problem described in this Superuser question https://superuser.com/questions/1296024/windows-ssh-permissions-for-private-key-are-too-open. I used the solution from the most upvoted answer and ssh finally worked for me.
From your post it looks like SSH is looking for /home/XXX/.ssh/id_rsa and is not finding it. Ensure that the .pub file you copied is named correctly and has the right permissions.
Try putting the option before the hostname...
The goal behind this question is to create a portable Windows script/program that would help users run (console) programs directly from a USB key (not necessarily through autorun, though). The script/program would thus do the following when double clicked on:
Launch a console (cmd would do) and give a DOS command prompt,
Have the current directory set to a specific directory WorkingDir on the USB key (which contains various [Python] programs),
Set the path so that the user can run a command (python.exe) found in another USB key directory (so that the user can launch various Python programs found in WorkingDir).
The whole thing is based on Portable Python, which is on the USB key. I would also like to be able to simply put the contents of the key on a hard drive and use it from there.
I tried to write a file that contains commands like:
PATH=..\"Portable Python 2.7.2.1\App":%PATH%
cd WorkingDir
cmd
but I'm not sure how to call it so that Windows runs it (and I was therefore not able to see whether these command would work).
I don't know much about DOS and Windows, so any help would be much appreciated!
Actually, in windows you use ; for separating paths :) And you shouldn't use .. like that. You can use %CD% to get current directory and then navigate from it. And don't use quotes. Also, you could put # before any command that you don't wish to be echoed to the console.
You can put this into run.bat (this should work :P):
#PATH=%PATH%;%CD%\..\Portable Python 2.7.2.1\App
#cd WorkingDir
#cmd
And then just double click it and it will open commmand prompt just as you want it. Or maybe you can add autorun.inf file to open it automatically.
You need to create two files:
autorun.inf
[autorun]
open=cmd.exe "Python Console" /k autorun.cmd
action=Open Python Console...
autorun.cmd
#Echo Off
CD %~d0\WorkingDir
Path %Path%;%~d0\Portable Python 2.7.2.1\App
The phrase %~d0 represents the drive the command file resides, namely the flash drive's letter (E:).
Now, I encountered two slight hiccups. My USB drive had a hidden, system, readonly autorun.inf file on it already. I had to unprotect it with the following command before I could edit it.
Attrib autorun.inf -r -s -h
My second hiccup, is that Windows 7 won't autorun from a USB drive. You have to right-click the drive in Explorer and select "Run Python Console..."
