Fails to connect to SSH Server

Hi
I have a IDM-7.1 installation which should connect to a solaris 8 resource running an old ssh server (1.2.31) and when I run a Test Configuration on this resource I get this error message:
Test connection failed for resource(s):
Solaris: Could not connect to my.hostname:22: Can't connect to a server with version SSH-1.5-1.2.31
I guess it is because IDM's ssh client will only talk to SSH2 servers, is there any way of getting it to connect or must I upgrade the SSH server first?
Regards
Thomas

Thomas,
Upgrading to SSH2 will allow you to integrate fully. Pre-SSH2 versions is not supported by the Solaris adapter.
The com.waveset.adapter.SolarisResourceAdapter (in other terms the solaris adapter) extends the SVIDResourceAdapter which implements ScriptedConnection. ScriptedConnection leverages Appgates ssh2 package. More information about the ssh2 package can be found : http://www.appgate.com/products/80_MindTerm/80_API_Documentation/com/mindbright/ssh2/package-summary.html
Now, the good news is that there is an ssh1 package available so by writing your own addition to the standard code you should be able to leverage the ssh1 package part of the com.mindbright packages.
So if you are forced to integrate using SSH1.5 - write some additional code to do it, else upgrade the SSH daemon to an SSH2 compatible daemon. The latter is to my opinion good decision anyway.
Anyway, thats my 2 cents..

its working good with Excel 2010 powerpivot

Anita,
Please look into using Power Query to use OData as a source in Power Pivot.
Thanks!

Adobe Reader 9.1 - Fatal Error : Acrobat failed to connect a DDE server

Hi Everyone,
I have some users telling me that when they try to open a pdf attachment in Outlook 2007. Nothing happens. The system just sits there as if you did not click on the attachment. If you wait long enought a popup box from adobe reader comes up and says:
Fatal Error
Acrobat failed to connect a DDE server.
All the PDFs are very simple, just simple scanned images or converted over from a document into a PDF.
I've tried repairing the install and still had no luck - same behaviour. The only way the pdf opens is if we go into task manager and close the AcroRd32.exe process or logoff and log back in.
If it helps, the most recent system change was the upgrade to IE7 and a new anti-virus software.
Thanks,
KEvin

No solution I am afraid but same problem, running full version of AVG and problem hit immediately after Adobe Reader 9.1 upgrade. Pretty darn sure problem is in the upgrade but the relevant Restore Point was overwritten before I figured it out. Any advice welcome.

Failed to connect to DDE Server Acrobat XI Pro Windows 8.1

I had installed Acrobat XI Pro on a Windows 8.0 notebook computer and it was working fine. When I upgraded to Windows 8.1 a few months ago, I started getting intermittent problems/error messages when I would try to open a pdf file by doubleclicking on the file either in a folder or on the desktop. The file wouldn't open and the error message was "Failed to connect to DDE Server." I can still open the files by doing a File, Open from inside the software, so it's not an insurmountable problem, just annoying. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi TreeLady ,
Thanks for posting on forums, DDE server was a part of Windows XP, it was removed from Windows Vista and above. However, if you are getting this error in Acrobat, try the following.
(This error occurs when you have more than 1 process of Acrobat running)
1) Go to the task manager by presiing Ctrl+Alt+Del
2) Go to the processes in Task Manager
3) End all processes related to Acrobat
4) Launch Acrobat again.
Also, to find the root couse or to isolate the issue you can try the following.
1) Click on start
2) Type RUN
3) Type MSCONFIG
4) Go to services
5) Hide all Microsoft services
6) Disable all Services (Except Microsoft)
7) Restart your machine
8) Launch Acrobat to check if you get the issue.
This would help us to understand if Acrobat or any other third party process is not allowing Acrobat process to end causing a conflict .
Thanks,
Vikrantt Singh

SSRS: Failure sending mail: The transport failed to connect to the server.

I run SSRS and email reports using SMTP service on a Windows Server 2008 R2 box. This has been working for months and stopped today around noon.
I have checked all SMTP settings and verified they are correct. I can send an email from SQL Server Management Studio, using SMTP service with no trouble.
Now in SSRS I am getting this message:
Failure sending mail: The transport failed to connect to the server.
I have read every link when I google this message or type it into bing.com; yet cannot find a reason why SSRS has suddenly stopped emailing my reports.
I have restarted the server in question, I have changed account names, I have changed passwords, yet nothing is working.
I even approached our senior dba about it and he has never seen this happen.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Thank you,
Jessica

Thank you JJordheim.
IDS is not an issue. Neither is the Windows Firewall on the server. I actually turned it off while troubleshooting to make sure it was not causing the issue.
SSRS and my SMTP Virtual service are on the same server. I am running the SMTP service through IIS. I even created a new SMTP Service to test with. No luck.
My rsreportserver.config file looks fine, or at least it does to me. Posted below:

Failed to connect to the server, specify a valid server name and ID and pw

I am trying to install business one on a clients application server, where their sql server software is installed on a different server. When I get to the point of the installation where it asks for connection information: sql type, sql server name, logon and password, it fails after entering the correct info. I have double checked this info, typed it repeatedly and correctly and I continue to receive the following error: Failed to connect to the server, specify a valid server name and ID and password and try again. Can anyone lead me in the right direction to determine what my issue is? I can connect to sql server with the sa logon, on the sql server and I can access/ping the sql server from the application server, I just can't connect to sql server through the installation. I checked the sql server settings that I know of, so I don't know if it is an issue there or if it is a port issue or what.
Thanks for any help.

Following is whjat the customers IT team reported they did to get the install running:
RIGHT! Worked it out! It wasn't firewall in the end at all, it was that the SAP B1 installation isn't aware of SQL Server 2008 R2 (version 10.50.x.x).
The vbscript was looking for the presence of SQL Server 2008 (version 10.0.x.x) in the registry and not by scanning ports or suchlike.
If you use the autorun installation from this folder; E:\BusinessEvolution\Software\SAP_Extract_via_WINZIP it should work fine - I've modified the checksql.htm to look for SQL 2008 R2 and now autorun goes past that first problem.
Not sure if that will be any help to you? In that instance I think we were installing 8.8 PL17...
The upgrade frpm there to 8.81 PL07 worked fine

Access Manager Failed to Connect to Directory Server

Dear All,
I have problem with Directory Server connection in Access Manager. This happened in Production site, all application that integrated with Oracle Access Manager (OAM) for Single Sign On are not accessible after the Directory Server connection problem occur in OAM. The problem has only started occurring suddenly, before it the all service including the OAM and Directory Server is running well. Below are the error messages that appear in WebGate log file (ohs1.log) and OAM log file (oblog.log) :
>> OHS/WebGate (ohs1.log) :
[2014-01-21T09:25:12.0053+07:00] https://community.oracle.com/OHS https://community.oracle.com/OHS-9999 https://community.oracle.com/apache2entry_web_gate.cpp host_id: <WEBGATE_HOSTNAME> [host_addr:10.10.254.178] [ecid: 004w76rlRYt0NuapxKL6iW0000sE001oGY] The host and port from the requested URL could not be found in the Policy database. Check if the corresponding directory service is up.

The OAM using the Load Balancer between the LDAP Directory Server to OAM's component. When the error appears, there are no problem with the Load Balancer and all of Directory Sever services is up. There are two Directory Server servers in Multi Master Replication and 14 WebGate servers that integrated with OAM. Is there a limitation number of WebGate for integrated to the OAM?
I have tried to set some parameters in OAM configuration to solve this problem. I set the Maximum Connection of Directory Server parameter to 10 value (in OAM Console), the LDAPOperationTimeout paramater to 1 hour value and the LDAPMaxNoOfRetries parameter to 2 value (in the globalparams.xml). After set these parameters, the error is not appear in some days, but suddenly appear again in the same error message. May be set these parameters is not appropriate solution for the problem or the value that I set is not correct. Any experience with this?
I still don't know what the root cause of this problem. Restart all of OAM services (including the WebGate) is temporary solution when the error appear.
Any idea for this problem?
Thanks in advice.

Hi Jun-Y,
Thank you for your answer.
What do you means with the Directory Server's idle timeout is the "Idle Timeout" parameter in LDAP Client Control Settings?
I use Oracle Directory Server Enterprise 11.1.1.5.0. Now, the Directory Server's idle timeout parameter is "unlimited" value.
If the idle timeout of the load balancer set 1 hour, it means that I must change the directory server's idle timeout to be less than 1 hour. Isn't right?

Fatal Error: Failed to connect to DDE server

I've read the other posts about this problem, but none seem to fit my situation.
This happened while trying to use a 3rd party program Typhoon AutoRun to test autorun files for CDs of our Ebooks that we're burning. Each of these Ebook CD projects has 6 PDF files to open; 1 Mobipocket, 1 HTML. Of course, the only problem occurs with the PDF files.
Let me start by saying that I was using Acrobat 6 until September, when we upgraded to CS 4, and never experienced this issue.
And after installing Acrobat Pro 9, I hadn't any difficulty until TODAY.
Order of events: I opened a past completed project in Typhoon Autorun to test the file before burning to CD.
When I clicked on one of the PDF document buttons, the first thing that happened was Adobe Active X 9 attempted to run. BUT the Active X failed to install on the first attempt:
"Error 1904.Module
C:|WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9f.ocx failed to register. HRESULT -2147220473. Contact your support personnel."
The Typhoon Autorun program continued operating and opened the project's PDF documents without any difficulty -- all 6 opened, one after the other, when I clicked on their buttons.
I closed out the error message, closed out the Typhoon Autorun project I was testing to work on another Typhoon Autorun project. When I had that one finished, I tested it as I had the one previous.
This time when I clicked on a button to open one of the PDF button, the Adobe Active X 9 program loaded and INSTALLED successfully.
THEN, the PDF document opened. But when I attempted to open any of the other 5, they did nothing. I double-checked my Typhoon Autorun project files, but all of the settings were correct. I tried testing my project again. This time NONE of the PDF files would open.
I closed the Typhoon Autorun program and attempted to open Acrobat Pro 9 immediately after. I tried clicking on the shortcut button several times with no result. After several minutes, literally, I received the "Fatal Error: Failed to connect to DDE server" --- actually, several instances of that message to correspond with all the times I'd attempted to open the program.
I shut down my computer, rebooted, reopend Typhoon Autorun and tried to test a different project.
Again, Adobe Active X 9 installed. (If it's already installed why is it reinsalling???)
And again, only 1 PDF file would open. Then none of the others. I shut down Typhoon Autorun and tried to open Adobe Acrobat again, and it wouldn't open.
The problem seems to be appearing when Adobe Active X 9 installs, and it's doing that automatically, without asking.
I never had this problem when I used Adobe Acrobat 6 (I'm really beginning to regret upgrading)
I never had this problem before this Active X 9 started installing.

No solution I am afraid but same problem, running full version of AVG and problem hit immediately after Adobe Reader 9.1 upgrade. Pretty darn sure problem is in the upgrade but the relevant Restore Point was overwritten before I figured it out. Any advice welcome.

A Developer 6 Server under Windows NT is working fine.
The Windows NT 4 workstation contains registry settings
corresponding to this previous Developer Forms Server 6
configuration on Windows NT. We configured the Developer 6
Server under Windows NT using the tutorial in %

From a discussion with the Unix DBA team we concluded that this
tutorial is Windows NT specific.
Does anyone happen to have a tutorial on deploying Oracle Forms
to the Web specifically for Developer 6 Server and OAS4 under
UNIX.
Which Unix Developer 6 Server environment variables do I have to
set under Unix for deployment of forms 6.0 on the web?.

"NoRouteToHostException" => This looks like routing issues through the proxy server.
You can involve network admin to take care of the settings at proxy , to allow connections through the proxy server.

12c design view of JSF page fails to render with 'Loading failed Reason: Connection reset by server'

When in the design view of a JSF page, the page never renders in JDeveloper 12c. Instead I get an error message 'Loading failed Reason: Connection reset by server'. I traced this to a conflict with the port used by Cisco Anyconnect (5001) which seems to be something JDeveloper uses as well to render the page. Is there a way to change the port used to render the page in design mode? I could not find any settings in the preferences.

Hi Frank,
The proxy settings are set to use the system default proxy settings in JDev and I have not needed to change it when VPN'ed.
The product that is in conflict is the 'AnyConnect Web Security Agent' (acwebsecagent.exe) which runs whether I am on vpn or am in the office - it is listening on port 5001 and that is the same port jdev64w.exe is listening to when rendering the page in the design mode. I confirmed this using netstat -ab. After getting the conflicting program switched off temporarily, the design mode of the page was rendered within the IDE so that I could then drop components on the design surface.
Since I cannot get the Cisco product to listen on a different port, I am hopeful there is a way to modify the port used by JDev.
Thanks,
Sunil

I can not open any pdf file... . Fatal error. Acrobat has failed to connect a DDE server

fatal error
Acrobat has failed to connect a DDE server....
What can I do?

Did you register and activate Acrobat? I don't remember the DDE issue off hand, but it should not be occurring with the regular Acrobat installation.

"Acrobat Failed to Connect to DDE server"

Hi
I get a fatal error when I try to open a PDF document by double clicking on it. I am using version 10.1.4.
It just started recently. It was working before. I don't know why it is not working now.

Hi,
No, the Privileged key is not present at all in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\.
I See a field AdobeViewer in which I see "TrustedMode" set to 0.
Also I noticed that the value for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application is "AcroviewR10" even after the restart.
But What I found was that the shockwave flash plugin is causing some problem with Acrobat reader. WHen ever I enable this plug in I am not able to view the PDF documents and I get the original error "Failed to connect with DDE server". If I disable the plugin and restart then I am able to view the docs. But I can't browse web sites which need flash plugin. So I dn't know what exactly is the issue here..
Any more suggestions?

"acrobat failed to connect to dde server" when openning Adobe Acrobat XI PRo

Using Windows 7, removed AA XI , reinstalled it after purchase last week-- same problem. It will not open and I get this message "acrobat failed to connect to dde server"
any clues how to get out of the forest? Its very frustrating.

[Moved from the Premiere Pro forum... Mod]

Hey,
You might try deleting all processes related to Acrobat from the Task Manager and then launch Acrobat again.
Also, please repairing Acrobat from the Help menu.
If still you get the same error, then press (Windows+Run) and type "REGEDIT"
Go to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application" and tell me if the given key is AcroViewA10 or AcroViewR10.

PowerPivot Error "Failed to connect to the server. Reason: Unspecified error" when importing other files

I have been getting the error below on a regular basis when attempting to import Excel, Text, or Access files.
I'm running Office 2010 (SP1), and PowerPivot (SP1). After reading a similar thread I reinstalled PowerPivot. It worked until I closed Excel. Now it recuses to allow import or update of these files. I really need it to work. Anyone have an solution or even
something to try - other than uninstalling and reinstalling PowerPiviot everytime I need to import or refresh files?
Thanks,

Hi San,
What's the version of your PowerPivot? Please refer to the article to check the version of PowerPivot for Excel:
http://powerpivot-info.com/post/89-q-how-can-i-check-what-version-of-powerpivot-for-excel-is-installed-on-my-machine
We can download the latest PowerPivot for Excel version from:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29074
In addition, please help to collect windows events log information to us for further investigation. If you cann't import Excel, TEXT or Access data into PowerPivot data model, you can try to directly copy your data into it.
Regards,
Elvis Long
