For uploading PDF (in php) if (!=application/pdf) {"No PDF"} gives error when trying to upload PDF. Why?

In a php upload file I have inserted:
if($_FILES['file']['type'] !="application/pdf"){ echo "Should be PDF";}
exit;
Even when trying to upload a PDF file the error message comes: Should be PDF.
Earlier this worked fine. Maybe a bug in an update?
Regards,
pluys

I think I found part of a solution now. It is not Firefox, it is some add-on or plug-in. I myself use a lot of add-ons. I asked someone who was new to Firefox to load up a PDF file. There was no problem!
So now I'm going to check all my add-ons, hoping it is not Firebug.
All the best,
Pluys

Oracle Planning gives error when trying to open application from Workspace.

Hello,
We have version 11.2.2.0.0 of Planning installed. After the install of Essbase Studio Server we have hit some issues where Planning does not seem to be available. Despite re-deploying several times and other things, we cannot connect to the Planning server.

"Could not find the application that created this file" error when trying to combine files

I am working with a user that is trying to combine a pdf & word doc (docx). When they try to combine the files she gets the error: "Could not find the application that created this file" & "Please select a file created by an application that resides on your computer". The computer is running windows XP, with office 2010 SP1, & Adobe Acrobat Pro X.
Per previous suggestions, I have already checked to see if Adobe PDFMaker is enabled as a Word plugin, and it is.
Recentley the user was running Acrobat 6, and this error did not occur. It is only after upgrading to Acrobat X that this is happening. Any help with this issue would be appreciated.

This can also be caused if the files are in a folder deep in the file system. For example C:/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy/zzzzzzz/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa/bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb /cccccccccccccccccccc/dddddddddddddddd/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee/ffffffff/ggggggg/hhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhh/myPDF.pdf
At some point Adobe PDFMaker cannot handle the path length (also, Windows can't handle the path length either eventually)
Solution: move the files to a shorther path (perhaps the desktop) and try from there.
I am filing a bug report with Adobe. A descriptive exception message should be thrown instead of "could not file the app.."

Please help. Keep getting a conversion error when trying to convert a PDF to a .docx. Advice?

Please help. Keep getting a conversion error when trying to convert a PDF to a .docx. Advice?

Sara,
Please see my answers in bold below.
What browser are you using? Try clearing the cache, or using a different browser. N/A
Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website. Within Reader.I disabled the OCR and this did not work either. Try converting from within Reader, and disable OCR as detailed in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
Are you on a networked computer? Make sure that there aren't any firewall/proxy settings that are preventing you from uploading files to the Internet. Not having problems uploading the file--that works fine.
Make sure the file is within the file-size limit of 100 MB. It is <40.
I get the error message, "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online."
Thanks for your help in advance.

Error when trying to convert excel files to pdf

I'm getting the following error when trying to convert .xls and .xlsx files to pdf, using the "Create PDF" option:
Error message from the primary converter:
ALC-PDG-010-012-PDFMaker reported an error while printing the document.
Word, Powerpoint and Text files convert without any issues. Also I'm able to opent the excel files and convert them to pdf using the acrobat option in excel.
Livecycle Version: 10.0.2, GM
MS Office Version: 2007
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Suhail N.

It is always difficult when you need to convert multiple xls files to pdf or multiple sheets to pdf. If you have a single file to convert then the best method would be to copy your data to doc file and then convert it into PDF . If you have multiple files to convert then it is really difficult to convert all the files manually. Then the better method would be to use converter tool to convert excel to pdf . By doing this you can convert many files in just few seconds.

I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"

I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read". I am able to open pdf files in IE and other programs.

I am encountering the same problem -- though with .qfx files from my bank. This worked fine in Firefox 31 ESR, but since upgrading to Firefox 33.0, I get the "<name>.qfx.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read" when I attempt to download. (I should add that downloading PDF statements from the same site works fine, and that the qfx downloads work fine in IE and Chrome.)
I tried safe mode, it is still broken. Tried v34 beta, no luck. I reverted to version 31, it works again.
I guess I will stick with the older version until a solution is found...or just use an alternate browser to download my financial data.

I receive an error when trying to convert PDF to word. Pls help, I have a paid acct.

I receive an error when trying to convert PDF to word. Can someone advise on how to resolve?

"an error" really doesn't tell us much.

I keep receiving security errors when trying to open a pdf.

I keep receiving a security error when trying to run my javascript program, the function previously worked, but now creates an error after I entered the addWaterMark function. I have put my whole code below for my script.
The basic function is to load a text file into an array which has the path and file location, open the document, add a watermark, save the file, close the file, then repeat for the next array position.
I am using Acrobat Standard so I am unable to debug using the console, therefore I am struggling to understand what I am doing wrong. I will point out that I am not a fluent programmer, only have a basic knowledge of programming.
Code
app.addSubMenu(
cName:"Extras",
cParent:"Edit"
app.addMenuItem(
cName:"Import File",
cParent:"Extras",
cExec:"main()"
function main()
var fileCount = 0
var listOfFiles = []
listOfFiles = importData()
amountOfFiles = listOfFiles.length
for (var i =0; i<listOfFiles.length; i++) //calculates amount of entries in the array listOfFiles
newFile = openFile(listOfFiles[i]) //Opens current file
var d = app.activeDocs; //Gets current document title name
addWater(d[0]);
app.execMenuItem("Save");
for( var x in d ) d[x].closeDoc();
function addWater(myName)
{ app.alert("watermark",0);
myName.addWatermarkFromText(
cText: "OBSOLETE",
cFont: "Arial",
nFontSize:36,
aColor: color.red,
nOpacity: 0.5
//function SaveFile saves the current file but with an addition of WM to the filename
saveFile = app.trustedFunction(function(currentDoc, currentFileName)
{ app.alert("savefile",0);
app.beginPriv();
currentDoc.saveAs(currentFileName);
app.endPriv();
//function openFile which opens the file named in the variable currentFilename
openFile = app.trustedFunction(function(currentFileName)
{app.alert("openfile" + currentFileName,0);
app.beginPriv();
app.openDoc(currentFileName);
app.endPriv();
//importData function imports the paths and filenames contained in the list.txt located on the desktop
importData = app.trustedFunction(function()
{app.alert("import",0);
app.beginPriv();
cFilePath = "/C/Users/103019944/Desktop/File_List.txt";
var stmData = util.readFileIntoStream(cFilePath);
var cData = util.stringFromStream(stmData);
var cMsg = cData;
var fileArray = cMsg.split("\r\n");
for (var i =0; i<fileArray.length; i++)
return(fileArray);
app.endPriv();

I have found the error, you are quite correct I had an extra letter in the filename, I thought I'd checked this but just shows that sattention to detail is the key.
The script works perfectly now, thanks you for your help, really appreciated.
Thanks again
Ben

HTTP error when trying to access RESTful web service from application

Hi,
We are getting the following error when trying to access a RESTful web service coming from Apex workspace 4.2.1 and Apex listener 2.1:
ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-29024: Certificate validation failure
In the Debug report, besides the above I also see:
error_backtrace: ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 543 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 1164 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_PROCESS", line 396
We get that error whether we use https or http in the URI pointing to the web service. When I test the Web Service in Workspace RESTful service GUI, I get the data back. When I go build an application with a report calling the RESTful Web Service I get that error. Both the Application and the Workspace RESTful services are on the same Apex environment and even the same workspace.
What is odd is that I can actually put the URL of the web service into a browser and I get the data: (using the demo hr data in sample RESTful services.)
IN browser-- https://weblogic-dev.edu/apex/ace/hr/empinfo/

Any ideas on what would be causing the Error above in our application?
Thanks,

Edited by: patfmnd on Mar 11, 2013 3:25 PM
In reviewing the above error, I think we are realizing that we have to have the Weblogic layer SSL cert (actually the CERT from our BigIP load balancer which also does our SSL termination) imported into the Oracle server wallet where Apex is installed. Am I correct?
PM

We resolved our problem. The Apex Administrative Guide made us realize that we had to set up Wallet path in the Instance. This required working with DBAs to follow the Advanced networking guide to get the wallet set up on our server. We then added that path to the Instance configuration. (Manager Instance --> Instance settings). We ran into another other issue related to our implementation of CAS but were able to resolve that, and 'voila' were able to get the sample RESTful service consumed by our application!!
Now to the task of figuring out how to get Basic Auth working between client application and RESTful web service. If anyone has that working, let us know!!
It would be helpful if in the documentation of the Apex 2.x listener or Apex install/configuration there was clear reference to the above steps required for HTTPS access to RESTful web services.

Getting bad host error when trying to deploy simple web sample application

hi,
Can someone tell me why I'm getting this error when trying to deploy the simple web application from samples

Hi,
Another update on this issue.
To remove the error that we were getting (java.lang.LinkageError: Class javax/xml/transform/Source violates loader constraints), we tried some searching around and found out that the way to fix it is to provide correct versions of xalan.jar, xml-apis.jar and xercesImpl.jar. We downloaded the required version from the apache site and added it to our WEB-INF/lib folder in the WAR file.
Now, we are getting this error:
XPathFactory#newInstance() failed to create an XPathFactory for the default object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom with the XPathFactoryConfigurationException: javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException: No XPathFctory implementation found for the object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom
What else we might be missing in our libs or do we need to check some other configurations?
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

It is supposed to be dark.
Is it all videos that don't display or just some. You may have installed something like Perian or Flip for Mac that translates the video codecs for Quicktime. They may need updating.
