Kill Xorg without restart

I can kill Xorg via a simple "killall Xorg", but how can I prevent it from starting up again? To auto-start Gnome, I have gdm in my rc.conf, so is that what's causing it to restart? Is rc.conf being run each time? I'd like to be able to kill Xorg and drop back to a plain VC.

You probably have gdm in your DAEMONS array. rc.conf is not being run each time, but gdm is still running when you kill X, and it will re-start X automatically. That's why you have to kill gdm too.

How to kill Dashboard without restarting?

I'm attempting to update Adobe Flash and I'm stuck on shutting down the dashboard client. In the past, when you shut dashboard down, it was slow enough restarting that the update could complete. Now that I'm running Mavericks, it restarts instantaneously and I can't get beyond that point in the Flash installation.
Any hints for shutting down dashboard for a period of time while I do the update, then restarting it?

Terminal
copy and paste:
defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES;killall Dock
to relaunch the dashboard:
defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO;killall Dock

Keystroke command to close all apps (without restart or shutdown):

Hate to ask what is probably a simple issue, but I can't find a keystroke command that will close all open apps without restart or shutdown... just close everything that is open and let me continue or shut the lid to sleep ...
Anyone know one? or a way to do a command in iKey?
thanks,
tom

logout will do this. Of course you have to log in again afterwards, but it will kill all user-related processes.

Switching desktop environments without restarting X

easiest way is obviously editing .xinitrc and restart X and you're done. but what if you feel you're bored of gnome and want to use kde for a while. but crap you have ed2k, gnutella, fasttrack, and bittorrent going!!! noooo i can't restart X or all my downloads are toast!
so...what's the easiest and safest way to switch environments without restarting X. is it safe killing all processes and running a new one?
btw, i would try this, but last time i tried running gnome and kde at the same time and all the settings got screwed up and i couldn't boot into either one anymore.

I've written crap!!!
This is the way:
gdmflexiserver --xnest
if you want a window with a new login!!!
and
gdmflexiserver
if you just want another x session (Tere will be two of them in the same time).
You should .xinitrc alon, and use a display manager (such as gdm)
if you want this just modify in /etc/inittab
:x:5:respawn:/opt/gnome/bin/gdm -nodaemon
it should be the last line.
respawn means that if you close the x serv, it will restart

How do I turn on -XverboseTimeStamp without restarting the server?

The execute method on the getDiagnosticCommand seems pretty handy for invoking things programatically. I can turn on verbose GC with this command, but how can I turn on the verbose timestamps so I know when the gc occured (without restarting)?
Thanks

Try the "decorations" parameter to the "verbosity" command. Something like this:
bq. verbosity change=memory=info decorations=timestamp
See [http://e-docs.bea.com/jrockit/jrdocs/refman/optionX.html#wp1001095] for possible decorations.

How to disconnect internet connection in Time Capsule and reconnect without restarting the whole device?

Hi, I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to disconnect internet connection in Time Capsule and reconnect without restarting the whole device?
The thing is that as I have a dynamic IP address, everytime I restart the internet connection my IP address changes. I sometimes need it to change, so I need to restart the connection. I don't know another way to restart the connection than restarting the whole Time Capsule.
Thanks!!
PD: the computer I use is Windows based, using the Airport Utility for Windows, but I also have a MacBook Pro I could use and an iPhone too.

The utility in windows is very like Mac so the screenshots are from Mac as I don't have windows available now.
How this works depends on the setup of the TC.. which you did not tell us.. you cannot change anything if you do not have the TC as the main router in the network.
So on the internet tab you need to share a public IP address.
On the next tab where you set IP address.
Click the renew IP address.
It might work.. and it might not.. the problem is you are not disconnecting the network.. sometimes the hard disconnection is required before the address will renew..
What about unplugging the WAN port.. then click renew the IP which will fail.. then plug the wan back in again.
In the end it is easier and faster to power cycle the TC.

Reload a jar in weblogic server without restart

Hi All,
We are using weblogic version '10.0.1.0' and have 'reports.jar' file in server for reports.
If we change any existing class file under 'reports.jar' then we are using below steps in order to recognize a modified jar by weblogic
1) We need to recreate a jar using eclipse in local IDE and
2) Copy the 'reports.jar' into server
3) Need to restart server inorder to recognize the modified jar
Is there any alternative solution to reload a jar in weblogic server without restart?
Please do the needful.
Thanks & Regards,
Gangadhar

Hi,
If this is for weblogic running on development mode, then you can go for auto-deployment feature where weblogic will auto-deploy modified application from autodeploy directory.
For production mode, you can go for production-redeployment feature of weblogic where it uses application versioning. So for example you deployed webapp1 with version app1.0 and then for new release you will deploy webapp1 with version app2.0 adding a retirement policy to retire old application after said time and start using webapp1 with app2.0.
Refer to link for mode detail - http://middlewaresupport.wordpress.com/2013/03/21/production-redeployment-feature-in-weblogic/
rank it if found useful

Is there a way to recover or remove a restriction password without retoring a iphone 4 without restarting the phone as a new phone

is ther a way to recover a restriction password without restarting the phone as a new phone

No. A simple backup and restore just restores the restriction password from the backup you just made, unless you revert to a backup before the password was set. The other option is recovery which deletes all data.

How to make changes effect in log4j.xml without restarting weblogic server

Hi ,
I have successfully configured log4j in my weblogic server 8.1.
Everytime i made a change in log4j.xml i need to restart the server
is there any configuration or parameter to set without restarting server??
Thanks in advance,
CK

I don't think you need to restart the server, atleast I never needed to when making changes to jsp pages. You only need to restart when you make changes to java classes. Some might argue jsp is converted to servlet which is a java class.....
Try refreshing the page when you make any changes. This works for me, if it doesn't work try turning reloadable="true" in your context path in tomcat's server.xml

Update a component without restart Siebel

Hello!
Is it possible to update some of the Siebel components (Applets, Business Components, Integration Objects and other)
without restart the Siebel service?
(I know that this is possible for the Tasks and the Workflow.)
Thanks very much for help!

Hi,
The Applets,BC & IO are called Siebel Objects, not components. Any update or change done in the Siebel Objects should be compiled and the srf has to be replaced in the server. It definitely requires server restart to take effect.

Joseph

Reload web-inf/web.xml file without restarting tomcat

Please help me if any one have a solution .
I am doing development in jsp, servlet. I am using tomcat5 as a webserver.

From the tomcat admin page you can stop/start and refresh individual applications. See the tomcat documentation. Which, when you have a question about tomcat, you should always do first.

Add domain to allowedHTMLDomains.txt without restart

Hi,
I need to add a new domain to allowedHTMLDomain.txt and it should take effect without restart of FMS.
Is there a way to do it.
Is there a way FMS will rescan this txt file every few minutes to effect the additions or subtractions of domains.
I need a solution without restart as i dont have to cut the feed to other domains.
PS

Hi,
I am sorry for the delay.
I suggest you try to run this command below:
Icacls c:\folder name
/grant system:f /t
More information for you:
Icacls
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753525.aspx
Best Regards,
Amy Wang
While this grants system to the current structure, the SYSTEM access is applied to "This Folder Only" and I need it to apply to "This Folder, Sub folders and Files"
Is there a command switch for this?

How to view the change immediately after a java file is modified without restarting server or redeploy?

          Hi All,
          How to view the change immediately after a java file that is used in jsp is modified
          without restarting server or redeploy?
          Moreover, it is better to keep the original session.
          Any suggestion is appreciated.
          Kammau


          Hi,
          In order to have a new version of a java class, the current classloader must be
          deleted and a new one created. This is what redeployment does. I believe that
          this is more of an issue with Sun's implementation of classloaders. You could
          ask BEA support (719.232.7878) and see if they have any plans to periodically
          check jar files to see if java class file timestamps and destroy and re-create
          classloaders on the fly.
          1) You will still have to accept the performance hit of destroying classloaders
          and creating new ones. There isn't any way around that.
          2) I would think you would want to have more explicit control in production and
          integration anyway.
          You can redeploy applications from the command line (script) file not just the
          console.
          Hope this helps,
          pat

How to make changes runtime in ApplicationResources.prop without restarting

hi,
We are using Oracle App. server 10g server. Our application is so critical, we can not restart server frequently for small changes. Our client might need to change error message and other user message on regular basis. We use ApplicationResources.properties for messages. How we can update these messages at run time without restarting app server. Is it possible in Oracle App. Server. I know it is possible on JBOSS but not sure about Oracle App. Server.
I tried to copy ApplicationResources.properties in application folder on server, but it does not give effect. Generally, we used to do this with JBoss server, but I am new to Oracle App. server, is it possible? If possible - how?
I checked with my other team members, they are not sure. I also tried to find Java ranch and also other forums without success. your input might be very useful.
One probable solution is to access these messages from database, but do we have any other option if we want to use ApplicationResources.properties ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
FBZP includes many activities. Some of them could be maitained directly in production. What activity do you refer to? Anyway, if this activity is locked for customizing in production, there are, generally, two ways to deal with this:
a) open the client through SCC4
b) changing the maintance preferences for the table/view in question
In both case, you should consult your BASIS team first.

Eli
