Rubyscript2Exe is not deleting the temp files once it is done: SOLVED!

Is your Ruby on rails application packed in a exe created by Rubyscript2Exe? Is Ruby2Exe not deleting the temp files once it is done? I came out with the solution of deleting the files of previous run: 1. Replace the contents of init.rb with this:
require "rubyscript2exe"
require "fileutils"

at_exit do
  require "irb"
  require "drb/acl"
  require "dbi"  
  require "dbd/ODBC/ODBC"
  #Add the libraries you need

end

  if RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.is_compiled?

  ee_base_folder = File.expand_path(RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.appdir + "/../..")
  ee_folder = File.expand_path(RUBYSCRIPT2EXE.appdir + "/..")
  name_parts =  ee_folder.split(".")
  curr_ee_folder_number = name_parts[3].to_i
  last_ee_folder_number = curr_ee_folder_number - 1
  Dir.entries(ee_base_folder).each do |folder|
    if (folder != ".") and (folder != "..") and (folder.split(".")[3].to_i != curr_ee_folder_number)
      
      folder_to_del = ee_base_folder + "/" + folder
      puts "deleting " + folder_to_del
      FileUtils.remove_dir(folder_to_del, true) 
    end
    
  end
end
load "script/server"
2. Before running your application make sure you run this windows batch command to delete the temporary files created by tar2script:
erase /F /S /Q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp\tar2rubyscript*.*"

Powershell script for converting JPG to TIFF

Power Automate: SFTP action "Test connection failed"

When I added an SFTP create file action to my Power Automate flow ( https://flow.microsoft.com ) , I got the following error in the action step, within the designer: "Test connection failed" To troubleshoot the Power Automate connection, I had to: go the Power Automate portal then "Data"->"Connections"  the sftp connection was there, I clicked on the ellipsis, and entered the connection info It turns out, that screen provides more details about the connection error. In my case, it was complaining that "SSH host key finger-print xxx format is not supported. It must be in 'MD5' format". I had provided the sha fingerprint that WinScp shows. Instead, I needed to use the MD5 version of the fingerprint. To get that, I had to run in command line (I was in a folder that had openssh in it): ssh -o FingerprintHash=md5 mysftpsite.com To get the fingerprint in MD5 format. I took the string (without the "MD5:" part of the string) and put

Alert if file missing using Powershell

The following Powershell script can be used to send an email alert when a file is missing from a folder or it is the same file from a previous check: $path_mask = "yourfile_*.txt" $previous_file_store = "lastfileread.txt" $script_name = "File Check" ###### Functions ########## Function EMailLog($subject, $message) {    $emailTo = "juanito@yourserver.com"    $emailFrom = "alert@yourserver.com"    $smtpserver="smtp.yourserver.com"       $smtp=new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer)    $smtp.Send($emailFrom, $emailTo, $subject, $message) } Try {    #get files that match the mask    $curr_file = dir $path_mask |  select name    if ($curr_file.count -gt 0)    {        #file found        #check if the file is different from the previous file read        $previous_file = Get-Content $previous_file_store        $curr_file_name = $curr_file.Item(0).Name        if ($
