FileList Deployment

Hi,

I have a requirement, i need to copy only the DCT files (datacapture.cfg) from the categories from staging area of a branch to workarea of other Branch...

I tried to use Opendeploy filelist, this is working fine.. but the problem is.. it is even deploying the directories..

Can anyone suggest how to deploy only files to the target area.

Are you including the folder structure in your filelist. Can you post your script.
Because if you are including the folder structure in filelist, then it will be created in target server too.

hi,

Thanks for ur reply..

Filelist is working fine.. i want to do the same using remotediff...

but when i use remotediff.. its copying even the directory...

here the requirement is i should copu only the datacapture.cfg files into a branch.. not the corresponding directories

This is the parameter which am passing :

srcArea=/default/main/Admin/WORKAREA/work/content/Pangea/Pangea.com,targetArea=/default/main/Development/Infra_Track/Pangea/Pangea.com/WORKAREA/work/templatedata

If you're using remote diff instead of filelist deployment - then OD will create a directory on the target side for each directory it finds on the source side, but only those files that meet the requirements for deployment will actually be transferred. That is, I believe, "normal" behavior, and I don't think there's anything you can do about it.

But, the ownership(group name) of the source and target directories are different.. When the deployment happens it copies the source directories to the target because of the difference in the(group name of the source and target directory) and changes the group of the directory as the source dir...

i need to preserve the group of the traget dir even while deploying them...

We tried to exclude the directory path using

excludePath subPath="hotel_stay_builder/presentation"

even this is not working...

Pls help me regarding this

First of all - tag and attribute names are case-sensitive - so EXCLUDEPATH won't do anything.

Secondly - the subject of this thread if "FileList Deployment' - but your problems appear to be with remote diff deployments not file list deployments - so you should either fix the subject of the thread or create a new thread for your problem.

Third, the manner in which one can tune a deployment with regard to date and permission differences and such is reasonably well covered in the manuals - so I suggest you do a bit more research via the manuals.

Finally, if you still cannot resolve your issue - post all the details:

doing some research on your own - you will be more likely to get the assistance you need from here.
