sirskitzo Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) I keep getting permission blocked and denied to write while using a script that gets new jar updates of a script from Dropbox. How can I solve that? @Alek Edited February 14, 2018 by sirskitzo
Lemons Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 You can only write/read from %userprofile%/OSBot/Data for windows, or ~/OSBot/Data for *nix systems. Sounds like your making an auto-updater, make it an external application if you want to save to ~/OSBot/Scripts. Also if you want to get the user directory in a Script, use Script.getDirectoryData() 2
Alek Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Please don't tag me. If it's a permission saying that something is blocked, then it's blocked. OSBot priorities: 1. Security 2. Stability 3. Features You can ask in the scripting help section for alternatives that are compatible with OSBot. Edit: May depend on how you are downloading the jar as well. As other's have suggested, also make sure you are downloading in getDirectoryData(). 1
sirskitzo Posted February 14, 2018 Author Posted February 14, 2018 Alright, I understand. Are there any alternative ways to add it to the scripts folder safely?

Someone is coding me a private script and I don't want the pain of downloading the new jar everytime he codes an update for me and then go and replace it with the old version. I just want it to be ready(up to date). Edited February 15, 2018 by sirskitzo
