Flash version problems when using Extension Manager

I am deaf so I wanted to try the extension at
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&loc=en_us&extid=1182 518
in case any web sites I visit happen to have provided captioning.
When I try to install the extension with Extension Manager CS5, it halts with a message saying that I need Flash version 8 or higher. Downgrading from Flash version 10.1 to 9.x did not help. Further downgrading to version 8.42 did not help either. Yes, I did uninstall Flash each time before installing the next version.
I spent some time trying to find help in "Adobe Community Help", but that program is useless because the font is so tiny and it does not provide a way for the user to select a usable font size. Reducing my display resolution enough to make "Adobe Community Help" readable renders everything else useless because menus, buttons, fonts, dialog boxes, etc are now so freaking huge.

I do not have the "Creative Suite" in any version. I thought I was trying to install an extension for viewing content - I have no interest in creating anything.
I went back to the link I posted and it still makes me think it is an extension for displaying captions and that there is a different extension for creating them.
If it really is not an extension to allow end-users to read captions, then I've been wasting both of ours times. I'll just go back to nagging web sites - news sites in particular - to stop using Flash and switch to proper video formats that allows captioning for deaf users.

Path problem when use node manager to start Managed Server

Hi, I have met a problem:
My managed server's root directory is /usr/local/bea/cluster1/usr_projects/mydomain
My Node Manager 's default directory is /usr/local/bea/cluster1/weblogic700/common/nodemanager
I have some config file located under managed server's root directory and log
file is also should be generated in managed server's root directory.
But when I try to use node manager to startup/shutdown the Managed Server, I found
weblogic can not find the config file if I don't move the config file from Managed
server's root directory to node manager server's default directory. and also log
file was created under node manager's default directory.
It seems that managed server's default directory has been changed to node manager's
default directory.
What shall I do if I want Managed Server's default directory to be kept?

Hi Lumin,
If the weblogic version is 8.1, there is a RootDirectory field in Remote
Start tab which should resolve your problem. Just enter the absolute
directory pathname on the machine where you are starting your managed server
and the current working directory of the managed server will be this
RootDirectory. Before 8.1, the RootDirectory was used for finding the config
file for weblogic but it was never used to change the working directory of
the managed server created by the node manager.
cheers,
gaurav.

Trial version problem when using more than 1 track - does trial version same as full one?

I am thinking of upgrading to Premiere Elements 9 as I have upgraded my laptop. But the trial version Premiere Elements 9 doesn't even perform as well (with the same media) as Elements 4.0 did on my old laptop.
My new laptop is an HP Pavilion with Intel(R) Core i7 Q720 @ 1.6GHz (I was a bit wary of the low GHz but HP explained that that was still better than a higher GHz figure for an i5). I am editing both MP4 and avi files at 720 x 480.
The problem is that as soon as I start to use more than a couple of video tracks, playback slows right up, making editing difficult. Other software packages I have trialled on the new laptop (such as Sony Vegas) don't slow up at all, but I'd rather not buy them as I am very familiar with Premiere Elements now.
Is this a problem with the trial version which woudl be solved if I bought the full version, or will it be the same?
Thanks very much for any help

The AVI format is but a wrapper. Almost anything can be inside that wrapper. This ARTICLE will give you more background, and will also tell you how to determine what is inside the wrapper.
Especially with a laptop, I strongly recommend tuning the computer for an editing session. This ARTICLE will give you some tips. Note: there are a couple of links, just for Win7. Also, there are some good tune-up tips in the forum FAQ section, to the right of the main forum page. Of special note: the active anti-virus, pop-up blockers and spy sweepers are known to cause all sorts of problems, when trying to edit video.
One major consideration with a laptop is the I/O sub-system - the HDD's. Most laptops only have one internal HDD, and that is anything but ideal. With eSATA external HDD's, one can get very nearly the same performance, as with multiple internal HDD's. This ARTICLE will give you tips on using external HDD's with video editing. Though I have 3x internal SATA HDD's in my laptop, I still rely on FireWire 800 (IEEE-1394b) externals, and they work well. Using eSATA would be even better. For more info on the I/O sub-system, see this ARTICLE.
Good luck,

Problem using extension manager CS5 with command line

Hi All,
I had posted my question here : http://forums.adobe.com/message/4695419#4695419, but was advised to do so here as well..
I have a requirement to get the path of all the installed Extension Managers on any Windows system for the purpose of installing an extension.. I thought, there would be no problem in getting the path from the registry. There was no problem in Win XP, but the same does not work for Win 7.. I googled, and found alternate ways to get the path.
Here is the link : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/851359. I followed the instructions in this post, but failed to get this working for CS5 as mentioned in my previous thread... No problem for CS5.1 and CS6.. Why is that?
I want to get this working for CS5, CS5.1, CS6... How can I get the path of all the Extension Manager versions installed on a Windows system?
Please refer to the following screenshots to get a better understanding of my problem,
I created a jsx file named "Result.jsx", which I saved in my D drive, with the following code,
resultFile = new File("D:/result.log");
resultFile.open("w");
resultFile.write(BridgeTalk.__diagnostics__);
resultFile.close();
If I run this directly from ESTK CS5, there is no problem, and I get the result.log file. I tried to execute this script via command line as shown in the screenshot,
On executing the above, I got the following error,
What is going wrong?
Please help!

I am sorry for the poor documentation of Extension Manager which causes you so much trouble.
1. You can use BridgeTalk API to ask specific version of Extension Manager to do something. There is sample in packaging_extension.pdf about this. You don't need to know the installation path of Extension Manager. One thing to note is that the value of bt.target is version specific, i.e. "exman-5.0", "exman-5.5" send this message to different version of Extension Manager, so you can change this value to install/enable/disable/remove extensions using different version of Extension Manager. More detailed documentation of BridgeTalk can be found by clicking "Help" menu then clicking "Javascript Tools Guide CS5" in "Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit CS5".
2. Specific version of Extension Manager only manage extensions for corresponding version of product. You should use Extension Manager CS5 to install extensions for Photoshop CS5. The reason that the extension you installed for Photoshop CS5.1 using Extension Manager CS5.5 is displayed for Photoshop CS5 in Extension Manager CS5 is that two versions of Photoshop specified the same directory for Extension Manager to manage extensions. This is a defect and will cause some problems if multiple versions of Photoshop co-existed in one machine. But "to find previous (CS5) extension manager and to enable it" should work for you, I guess you use command line to enable it and specify wrong product name (see #3) so that it doesn't work.
3. When using command line, you should specify "product" attribute with the name displayed at the left panel of Extension Manager. So "Photoshop CS5 32" is correct. Remember to enclose it with double quote because of existence of space character.
4. As above mentioned, use display name of Photoshop, and call proper version of Extension Manager by BridgeTalk.

Various problems using extension manager with command line

Hello all,
We are installing our plugins to CS4/5/5.1 version of Adobe Photoshop as part of our installer and allow the users to select specific versions of Photoshop to install the panel for. There are a few old problems that I wanted to rant about for quite some while and now with a whole bunch of problems that the 5.1 update introduced I feel I just have to voice them. I will limit it to PC only as it seems to be the most troubled platform
#1 As we cannot install our plugin only by using the Extension Manager (simply because it cannot handle all we've to do upon the installation) we have to run commands from within the our installer, non-interactively, of course.
The interface to command line installation is xmancommand.exe (or "Extension manager (Version). exe" - not sure whether it makes any difference. ). Now the first question is how to find this executable on the target machine, from an installer. Users may specify different locations to install the Creative Suite and it certainly does NOT have to be C:\Program Files\...(or %PRGRAMFILES% in general). ATM we are using an odd place in the registry to to find the path to the most recent Extension Manager but first its sometimes overwritten by another installation and in any case it only shows ONE version of the extension manager which of course cannot handle other versions (see #2)
#2 Why the most recent version of Adobe Extension Manager (5.5) cannot install the extension for 5.0? Well, install it actually does, however its disabled for CS5 and it seems that the only way to enable it on this platform is to find previous (CS5) extension manager and to enable it. Oh, actually no - it doesn't work! The only way that I found here working is to find CS5 extension manager first, install the extension there and then use CS5.5 extension manager to enable it. Why do I need both utilities to manage my extensions?!
#3 The program is severely lacking in documentation AND it doesn't produce reasonable output messages, so determining what it can actually support is a puzzle. For example, why "Dreamweaver CS5" is a correct product name and "Photoshop CS5" is not (don't different teams talk to each other)? Ok, lets forget the consistency, but how do I make the utility output the list of all products it supports, in their magic token form that it will actually be understood if passed in in the command line? By trial and error? This menthod btw is also extremely painful: nany times when specifying wrong parameters the program doesn't provide any output and just shrugs "whatever, go figure it yourself"...
#4 Why the only way to enable/disable an extension in Photoshop seems to be using magic "productfamily" keyword that is not even listed on Adobe's help page for command line options (here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/extensionmanager/cs/using/WSB4845EDD-14E5-476a-B749-FF328830D1 4F.html).? E.g. "xmancommand.exe" -suppress -remove product=Photoshop extension=OurExtension" will ALWAYS fail with a lovely "'Photoshop is not supported by Extension Manager CS5.5." error; I've tried "PhotoshopCS5", "Photoshop CS5", "PhotoshopCS5.1" "Photoshop CS5.1", "Photoshop-12" (mentioned in examples section in http://help.adobe.com/en_US/extensionmanager/cs/using/packaging_extension.pdf ) and a whole bunch of other permutations - none seem to work (see #3). Magic "productfamily=Photoshop" does work. But then it only aims the current version ("CS5.1") and I need it to work for CS5 (I'm not even mentioning CS4...."). Would there be any suggestions?
Really, the question is, how do we, third-party developers, are supposed to interact with the command-line utility without knowing where it is, what product names is capable to work with and without being able to target specific platforms (i86 vs x64 anyone (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/672537)? CS5 vs CS5.1 (above)?). I don't know what your test cases are for the command line tool (if any!), but this is simply insane, folks, simply insane.

I encountered a problem when using Flash Player V9.0.115, can somebody help me?

Hello all, can somebody help me?
I have encountered a problem when using Flash Player
V9.0.115. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
The problem described as follows:
1. The flash file with sound works well before uploaded to
website. The audio lost when uploaded to the website(There is no
problem with the flash file size). I have uploaded the flash file
to website for you to test. Please go to
http://www.sameshow.com/democreator/create
a new site.swf and kindly check with it.
2. When we open the flash movie in IE with Flash player
V9.0.47 and previous versions (Flash9d.ocx), the flash movie with
sound works well.
3. When we upgrade the flash player to the latest version
V9.0.115 (Flash9e.ocx), the video works well, but the sound just
can play several seconds and then stop.
4. On Flash Player ocx V9.0.115. If we publish the flash
movie on web with 24fps, the sound just can work several seconds
and then stop, the problem is the same if we use the
TShockWaveFlash control to play the flash movie.
5. On Flash Player ocx V9.0.115. If we publish the flash
movie with 12fps, the sound works well but the quality is really
very poor. It seems that the sound plays shorter with more frames
per second. But the flash file works well with the Flash Player
V9.0.47 and previous versions (Flash9d.ocx).
Can somebody help me to figure it out? Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Sabrina

What version of the Adobe Application Manager are you using? Which operating system are you using?

Can you push install an extension without using Extension Manager?

I'm looking for a way to deploy a CS5 extension en mass using an unattended network push install utility (i.e. LanDesk). I have not been able to find any documentation yet on how to do this and our corporate customers do not want to send someone to every desktop to install or upgrade extensions manually using Extension Manager (in some cases they can have over 1000 end users spread across the country). Please help me locate some documentation on how to do this.
Thanks,
Dwane Ferry

Extension Manager supports updatable extension. If your existing extension specifies update URL in its mxi file, when the new version of the extension is available, you can put the update information file to the URL. Extension Manager will detect the extension update during launch and notify users. After user clicks the "Update" button, the updated extension will be downloaded and installed.
Extension Manager also supports command line interface. You can put the extension to a shared loacation, and write a batch file using commands. Send the batch file to all customers to run.
More detailed information about updatable extension can be found in http://www.adobe.com/go/em_file_format .
About command line interface, please see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/extensionmanager/cs/using/WSB4845EDD-14E5-476a-B749-FF328830D1 4F.html .

Orange mail software problem when using distribution lists : some lists cannot be used for writing e-mails. The problem does not exist when using Internet Explo

When writing an e-mail directly on the Orange e-mail service (not on Thunderbird) I am facing the following problem : some distribution lists cannot be used to complete the adressees. The same lists can be used without difficulty if I use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. The Orange hotline told me that probably my Firefox version was not updated. Unfortunately I checked that, and apparently the automatic updating works. I have also updated the plug ins, without any result.

Please could you specify which webpage you mean ?
The process with Orange is the following :
- 1. click on "Write an e-mail" on the mail webpage
- 2. click on "To" to reach the Contacts which opens a new window
- 3. click on "Distribution lists"
- 4. click on the selected list then click on "add". The list appears ot the box corresponding to the addresses .
UNTIL THEN EVERYTHING WORKS WELL
- 5. click on the button "validate", which closes the window previously opened and normally
- 6. reloads the initial page with the complete list on the line "To". Instead of that I get the last e-mail address I previously used .
Question : at which step of this process should I try your suggestions ? I tried when the initial page was reloaded with the wrong address, but it did not work to get back the rignt distribution list;
Note that the whole process functions with OTHER Distribution lists. The only difference is that the problematic one has a larger number of adresses (62) however inferior to the maximum indicated by Orange (100).
I also remind that there is no problem when using Internet Explorer instead of Firefox.
Thanks for your help !

How do I install an extension for Fireworks using Extension Manager?

When you install an extension using Extension Manager in Windows 7 or Vista, the following error message appears: "You do not have the appropriate permissions required to perform this operation. Contact your system administrator to obtain permission."
To solve this issue, run the Extension Manager as administrator and then install the extension.
(Right-click the Extension Manager and select Run as Administrator.)

ORA-01403: no data found Problem when using AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH to populate

ORA-01403: no data found Problem when using AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH to populate a form.
1) Created a FORM on EMP using the wizards. This creates an AUTOMATIC ROW FETCH
TABLE NAME - EMP
Item Containing PRIMARY KEY - P2099_EMPNO
Primary key column - EMPNO
By default the automatic fetch has a ‘Process Error Message’ of ‘Unable to fetch row.’
2) Created a HTML region. Within this region add
text item P2099_FIND_EMPNO
Button GET_EMP to submit
Branch Modified the conditional branch created during button creation to set P2099_EMPNO with &P2099_FIND_EMPNO.
If I then run the page, enter an existing employee number into P2099_EMPNO and press the GET_EMP button the form is populated correctly. But if I enter an employee that does not exist then I get the oracle error ORA-01403: no data found and no form displayed but a message at the top of the page ‘Action Processed’.I was expecting a blank form to be displayed with the message ‘Unable to fetch row.’
I can work around this by making the automated fetch conditional so that it checks the row exists first. Modify the Fetch row from EMP automated fetch so that it is conditional
EXIST (SQL query returns at least one row)
select 'x'
from EMP
where EMPNO = :P2099_EMPNO
But this means that when the employee exists I must be fetching from the DB twice, once for the condition and then again for the actual row fetch.
Rather than the above work around is there something I can change so I don’t get the Oracle error? I’m now wondering if the automatic row fetch is only supposed to be used when linking a report to a form and that I should be writing the fetch process manually. The reason I haven’t at the moment is I’m trying to stick with the automatic wizard generation as much as I can.
Any ideas?
Thanks Pete

Hi Mike,
I've tried doing that but it doesn't seem to make any difference. If I turn debug on it shows below.
0.05: Computation point: AFTER_HEADER
0.05: Processing point: AFTER_HEADER
0.05: ...Process "Fetch Row from EMP": DML_FETCH_ROW (AFTER_HEADER) F|#OWNER#:EMP:P2099_EMPNO:EMPNO
0.05: Show ERROR page...
0.05: Performing rollback...
0.05: Processing point: AFTER_ERROR_HEADER
I don't really wan't the error page, either nothing with the form not being populated or a message at the top of the page.
Thanks Pete

COUNT(*)
      1
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(Japan)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
      1But the problem is when I using ABOUT operator like in Oracle's English Knowledge Base Category Hierarchy it return 0
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(Asia)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
      0
SELECT count(*) FROM my_items WHERE contains(name, 'about(transportation)', 1) > 0;
COUNT(*)
      0I can't figure out what 's wrong in my query or in my index.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hello (and welcome),
You'd be best asking this question in the Oracle Text forum, here:

And by the way, it will help others to analyse if you put {noformat}{noformat} (lowercase code in curly brackets) before and after your code snippets.
Good luck!
