Strange behaviour softproof and Gamut warning

When I have a softproof selected (using Relative Colormetric ; Blackpoint Compensation and Simulated paper color) I am seeing a difference in the soft proof when I toggle the gamut warning on and off.
This is not due to out of gamut colors which I have set to show up as a 100% medium gray.
What I am seeing is a difference in the shadow detail on the softproof, when I have the gamut warning on or off. More detail with it off and less with it on. I have tried different printer profiles and see the same effect.
I had not noticed this before, but today I was printing some sunset pictures and having trouble getting the shadow detail to match on screen and in print. My expectation of toggling the gamut warning is that it would only highlight (in gray) the out of gamut colors and have no impact on other parts of the picture. Incidentaly - the view with gamut warning "on" appears to match the print correctly.
I am using CS5 on Windows 32bit. Am I doing something wrong, or have I misunderstood the gamut warning?
Dave

Noel,
Thank you - you are spot on - that did get round the issue.
I read through your thread and can see how the banding issue you described would impact. The dark areas in my pictures tended to be shades of gray and when softproofing using simulate Paper Color went a slightly lighter shade (with banding in those areas). I tried this on a gray ramp and the problem is very visible (as it was in your thread).
It is puzzling as to why turning gamut warning on and off altered the banding but hopefully if Chris or his colleagues see this thread it may help them locate the root cause of the problem.
Thanks again
Dave

PS Report : Strange behaviour S_ALR_87013542 and CJI5

The bottom line total figure In CJI5 ("Val/CO Area") for All PO's assigned to a WBS and S_ALR_87013542 ("Commitments") on a WBS match exactly - in same period.
But strangely the bottom line total figure In CJI5 ("Plan val. Currency" ) DO NOT MATCH with the bottom line total figure of "Total" of S_ALR_87013542 . Infact the value is showing more in CJI5.
Can someone explain the reason for this behaviour.
Thank you.

Hii Ravi,
Thanks for your quick response....
I'm not using the valuated stock, and yes all the configuration already checked.
First, in the PO, we key the date and invoicing plan (depends on the termijn), If we want to do
invoice (MIRO), we need to do the unblocking the invoicing plan in the PO (invoice tab in po)
after that, create invoice reference to PO. if this steps are followed.. we still can see the outstanding amount of PO in the report. (_ALR_87013558 and CJI5).
If user didn't do the unblocking the invoicing plan in the PO,.. and directly do the invoice (MIRO)
reference to PO, Invoice still can be created.. However, we cannot see the outstanding amount of the
PO, if user do the invoice without unblocking the invoicing plan.
Please any advice wiil be helpful..
Best regards

Strange Behaviour-- Ep and BEX

Hello ALl,
I am facing a very strange issue.Our organisation uses bex as a reporting tool for various departments.
We have developed some bex reports and have successfully integraded with EP 5.0 SP4.
The problem now is that one of the users wanted a name change on one of the iviews (BEX report), we( as a developement team ) did the change and imported the iview once again in the portal.
Now the user who wanted the name to be changed is unable to view the changed name, every other user can see the changed name.We even cleared the cache of that particular users IE,but still he was unable to see the changes.
We have the same role assigned to all the users.
Can any one suggest as to why this is happening?
One of the probable reason could be cache related but the client cache has already been cleared, had it been an issue of server cache then all the other users would have been affected, but this is either not the case.
Would appreciate a quicker response,since the issue is getting on our nerves.
Thanks and Regards
Pradeep Bhojak

hello Frank,
To answer first, the user uses the same setting as the one used by all the other users. So no question of language settings being a problem or a hindrance.
Toanswer second:
we created a query in bex.
created a template fro the same in Web Application Designer.
published the same template as an iview file.
Imported the iview file in the portal (EP 5.0 SP4)
Then assigned the iview to page and the page to a workset and then workset to a role.
let me know where we are doing the wron step, if at all we are?
Thanks and Regards

AXI VDMA strange behaviour tvalid and tready

Hello everybody
I'm working very hard to use AXI VDMA but there's something I can't understand. the m_axis_mm2s_tvalid and the s_axis_s2mm_tready works totally random.
I'm using Vivado 2014.4 and VDMA v6.2. I'm implementing this on a zedboard.
This is my design:
I have 2 VDMAs, one for writing and another one for reading.
I use the Test Pattern Generator of xilinx to generate a tartan bars, and I connect it directly to the s_axis_s2mm of VDMA_0.
Then I created a controller for sending the output of the TPG (through th VDMAs) to a VGA screen.
The m_axis_mm2s of VDMA_1 is connected to my IP (the controller of VGA).
The VGA_ctrl sends the outputs to the screen and controls the stream of the data from VDMA_1 setting the tready to 1 only when it needs the data to send the data to the VGA screen..
The VGA_ctrl works perfectly if connected directly to the TPG, so there are not problem with it.
theese are the the configurations of the VDMAs
this is the addressing of the VDMAs and of the processor
this is what I wrote in the SDK. the size of the video is 1280x1024, so I counted 5120 of stride and hsize (1280*32/8). and 1024 for the vsize.
#include <xil_printf.h>
#include <xil_types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include "platform.h"
#include "xil_io.h"
int main()
//S2MM config
Xil_Out32((0x43000000) + (0x30) , 0x8B); //S2MM_VDMACR : 8Bh

Xil_Out32((0x43010000) + (0x50) , 0x00000400); //MM2S VSIZE: 1024
return 0;
I use 1 frame buffer stored since he location 0x00100000 as I checked here:
but in the end this is what I get for ILA core:
How can you see the axi_vdma_1_m_axis_mm2s_tvalid that should be always 1, goes between 1 and 0 totally random.
The same is for axi_vdma_0_m_axis_mm2s_tready.
This obviously stop the streaming and nothing works.
How is it possible that theese 2 signals of streaming change so randomly?
Could be a problem of the axi protocol which sees the channel busy and stop the streaming?
I'm a newbie with FPGA and hardware world, so I can have done a very stupid mistake. please help me finding the problem.
Thanks in advance

I'm wondering where I was wrong. Could you help me point out my problems?

Finder Strange behaviour: folder and file icons not showing, then they disa

Yesterday I was trying to install the postgresql package from (http://web.mac.com/dru_satori/iWeb/PostgreSQLforMac/Welcome.html). Actually I had an older version of their package, i uninstalled it, tried installing the new package, but kept receiving errors that the installation was not correct.
Now the point of this question, as I was doing the above, i started to notice that some files (either on my desktop or in a folder window) are not showing the icon. Only the label is showing! when I click on such a file, the file disappear (i mean even the label is gone).
I have completed permission repairs, disk repairs. I also noticed that this is only happening in my account, but not that of other accounts on this computer, which indicates that this is a problem in my home directory. I have also re-lunched the finder using the force quit window. I have also trashed the com.apple.finder.plist and logged out and then logged in again. I have just noticed that (pages) is asking for the serial number! I have this program installed months ago! It seems that some other files are also getting damaged!
Is there something that I am missing? Is this a bug? is there any solution, because this is very annoying and it might indicate a bigger problem that I am not aware of.
thank you for your help
PowerMac G5 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.4) 4.5 GB RAM

I also noticed that this is only happening in my account, but not that of other accounts on this computer, which indicates that this is a problem in my home directory.
Good first troubleshooting step!
Now log back into your normal user account: (In your case I would try preferences first)
1. Navigate to ~(yourhome/library/fonts - drag this folder to the desktop.
• Restart and test your applications.
• If they work start adding the fonts back few at a time.
( Likely suspects are Times RO & Helvetica Fractions, also if you do not use Classic you can trash the classic fonts.)
2. Check Preferences Thoroughly;
• Navigate to ~(yourhome/library/preferences drag this folder to the desktop.
• Restart and test your applications.
• If this works, save the old preferences folder somewhere else or on disk, name it "old prefs" .
** Note: A very important file is the "com.apple.Mail.plist" preference file located in the Preferences folder which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences (hold this one and replace if your problem is not with Mail).
You'll have to go through some of your System Preferences and apps to set the preferences back to how you like them. (Or if you have the time and inclination, "cherry pick" through until you find the problem one or two.)
3. Check Permissions Inside Home Folder
   • Navigate to yourhome/library.
   • Get Info (Command - i) on folders for apps you are having problems with.
   • Open the "Ownership & permissions" disclosure triangle.
   • Make sure you are the owner, with "read and write" access.
• Click on "apply to all"
   • If this is correct, open the "Applications Support" folder and do the same procedure (Command+I) for the folders with the names of the applications you are having trouble with.
Note:
The reason to check this is because repairing permissions with Disk Utility doesn't touch permissions inside your home folder.
If the issue persists navigate to yourhome/library/caches and drag this folder to the trash, then log out and back or restart. There is no need to replace this folder.

Strange behaviour of "And array Elements"

If u connect an empty boolean array to "And Array Elements" function, The output is "True" !. Is this correct?. Is there something wrong ?. Please Help.

Hi J.A.C
This is correct.This is an explanation I've found: "This behavior is intentiional, and stems from elementary Boolean logic. The Boolean algebra primitives are analogous to numeric operations are integers. Just as the identity element for addition is 0, and for multiplication, 1; the identity for Boolean OR is FALSE, and for AND, TRUE. For example, x^0 == 1; that is, x times itself zero times is by definition 1. For the same reason boolean x ANDed with itself zero times is TRUE."
If this is not acceptable for your application, then just use the "Array Size" VI first to check if you've an empty Array (Array size=0) and then you can pass or not the array to the "And Array Elements" function.
Hope this helps.

APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

Hi
For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
Thanks
Brian

Hi Brian,
it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

Soft proofing and Out of Gamut warning

I like to use Blurb for a perfect photo book. I am an amateur photographer but like the most of my pictures on paper.
What's the perfect workflow for soft proofing ?
A friend of me has calibrated my screen (Thunderbolt Apple screen).
My current methode :
I take a picture in RAW with AdobeRGB profile setting, i adjust a few parameters in Lightroom and then go to Photoshop and start de soft proofing with the Blurb-ICC profile.
The result with soft proofing is like there's a white mist over the picture. Then i try to optimize this with various parameters.
When i try the soft proofing with the Blurb ICC profile + out of Gamut warning option .... there are many colors out of gamut .
My second methode :
When i import the raw picture in photoshop cc and i convert the picture to the Blurb profile, then there are no out of gamut colors but everything is in CMYK.
Is this a good way for perfect photo books in Blurb ?
Or must i ignore the out of gamut colors ?
Is it better to make my pictures in sRGB ?
When i want to save the end result in Photoshop cc ( jpeg for Blurb ) must i enclose the Blurb ICC (when in CMYK) , Adobe RGB or sRGB profile (when in RGB) ?
Please help me make a perfect photobook
Mario

Since I don't know what "Blurb" is, I'm going to assume that's your printing service somewhere, and that they have provided you with their target printer profile.
What you describe under current method is absolutely normal, expected behavior. Adobe RGB simply is a much larger color space than whatever this Blurb profile is.
If you care to let me know how or where I can get a hold of this Blurb profile, I can in a matter of seconds prepare an illustration of how the two profiles compare to each other. From where I sit, it would appear you're throwing away a lot of image quality by using Blurb.
There are two wacky ways of getting around your seeing the out of gamut warnings. The first is not to soft-proof at all. (Duh! ) The other one is an unorthodox workflow which works just fine PROVIDED you are aware that the image files as an end product are only good for Blurb and for no other purpose, and that is to set your WORKING COLOR SPACE from the get go to the Blurb profile. Of course that is not the recommended or even kosher workflow. It is only a workaround to the deficiencies of this Blurb profile.
I cannot comment on your "second method" until I know more about this Blurb phenomenon. If they print on a CMYK press, then they are throwing away a lot of colors, even if you send them images in sRGB. Nothing you can do about that.
The one thing I can say is that if the outfit doing the printing is the one that sent you the profile, then they will know how to deal with an sRGB file. The profile they sent you is just what their printing process uses. No need to attach a copy of their own profile.

Strange behaviour when setting client_info and module in v$session

Hello,
I've tried to set the CLIENT_INFO field in V$SESSION using DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_CLIENT_INFO but found a strange behaviour.
Normally the forms modules seems to set the field MODULE in V$SESSION to its name. If I use DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_CLIENT_INFO the CLIENT_INFO field is set correctly but the MODULE field is set to 'frmweb.exe' instead of the forms modules name.
I also tried to set the MODULE using DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_MODULE but then strangely the MODULE and MODULE_HASH field of the original frmweb.exe (the main applet?) entry and the entry for the forms module were the same (set to the new module name). From now on every newly opened module had 'frmweb.exe' as the module entry until I closed the forms application.
Example:
Entries in V$SESSION:
-- After start of forms application there is only one entry for the process:
PROCESS           MODULE            MODULE_HASH            CLIENT_INFO
1596:7204         frmweb.exe        854945150
-- When a new forms module is opened it looks like this:
PROCESS           MODULE            MODULE_HASH            CLIENT_INFO
1596:7204         frmweb.exe        854945150
1596:7204         my_module         1929284615
-- When the modified forms module that sets the client_info/module is opened this happens:
PROCESS           MODULE            MODULE_HASH            CLIENT_INFO
1596:7204         mod_module        3097977240
1596:7204         mod_module        3097977240             my client info
1596:7204         my_module         1929284615As one can see the entry of the forms application seems to be overriden (at least the MODULE and MODULE_HASH fields) but the CLIENT_INFO only changes for one of the entries?
The following code is responsible for the changes of CLIENT_INFO and MODULE:
    -- get client info
    client_info :=
        webutil_clientinfo.get_ip_address
        || ' (' ||
        webutil_clientinfo.get_user_name
        || ')'
    -- set client info
    DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_CLIENT_INFO(client_info);
    -- get module (set action to '')
    DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.SET_MODULE(name_in('system.current_form'),''); I really don't understand, why it does not work properly.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

This was an application module pooling, activation / passivation issue.

FIM Load Balancing and SPN's - Strange behaviour

I have a FIM setup in a domain
I have mycorp.com and a domain in the same forest contractor.mycorp.com (fictional setup)
I have 2 servers built in the contractors.mycorp.com domain
Id1
Id2
Id1 has the Service and portal on wss3 in SharePoint farm mode, Sp central admin is on this as well
Id2 has the service and is a load balanced SharePoint farm.
I have NLB setup and working the service name is identity.mycorp.com pointing at the IP of the NLB
I have a CNAME identity pointing at identity.mycorp.com
Identity.mycorp.com is used as the name of the Service and the Portal.
In the ApplicationHost.config I have
<system.webServer>
 <security>
 <authentication>
 <windowsAuthentication enabled="true" useKernelMode="true"
useAppPoolCredentials="true" />
 </authentication>
 </security>
</system.webServer>
I have kernel mode enabled, and I have Windows authentication enabled in the IIS console on id1 and id2.
The app pool credentials are a domain account SPService for SharePoint Service, the app pool is set on both id1 and id2 servers. The root domain account mycorp\SPService us used.
In
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories
I have set
<resourceManagementClient
requireKerberos="true"
I have registered the alternate URL mappings for SharePoint as
Identity
Identity.myCorp.com
I have registered SPN's for
Setspn –S FIMService/identity.myCorp.com myCorp\FIMService
Setspn –S FIMService/identity myCorp\FIMService
Setspn –S HTTP/identity.myCorp.com myCorp\SPService
Setspn –S HTTP/identity myCorp\SPService
I have configured delegation for both accounts in ADUC for the identity.mycorp.com
So all is well and I installed everything fine.
Now my problem is that if I go to id1 and browse to http://identity/identitymanagement I get redirected , and authenticated with my admin account to
http://id1/IdentityManagement/default.aspx
On id1 if I go to http://identity.myCorp.com/identitymanagement I get prompted for credentials, when I enter myCorp\FIMAdmin and my password I get redirected to the portal at
http://id1/IdentityManagement/default.aspx
If I try and authenticate to any of the previous URL's from other machines in my domain, including the load balanced box id2 I get "HTTP Error 401. The requested resource requires user authentication."
Even if I try and browse to
http://id1/identitymanagement from another machine I am getting 401. Only on
http://id1 am I getting a result, even if there is a prompt.
I am sure my SPN's are fine, there are no duplicate SPN's , I checked with the -x switch
So my load balanced portal and service are not working as I would have thought , I have looked at
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webtopics/archive/2009/01/19/service-principal-name-spn-checklist-for-kerberos-authentication-with-iis-7-0.aspx
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/484faae8-4df6-4b81-8b2d-9d75d5258e4f/fim-portal-http-error-401-the-requested-resource-requires-user-authentication?forum=ilm2
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/4473.fim-http-error-401-the-requested-resource-requires-user-authentication.aspx
http://setspn.blogspot.ie/2010/06/kerberos-basic-troubleshooting-tip-3.html
The only thing that I can think of is that the machine is in the contractors.myCorp.com domain which makes the machine
unique from where the SPN's are registered, but if that was the case then browsing to the portal from
http://id1 would certainly fail.
Can anyone see anything wrong with my approach ?
Normally I find SharePoint a pain, but this week it seems to be this.
When I ran the fim service install I specified identity.myCorp.com as the name of the server

In my Load Balanced setup it helped a lot (on some strange behaviours) when I set up Load Balancer to keep session on one server.

Strange behaviour whit custom JTextField and JToolTip

Hello everyone. I hope I'm writing in the right section and sorry if I did not search for this issue but I really don't know which keywords I should use.
I'm using NetBeans 6.1 on WinXP and JDK 1.6.0_07, I have a custom JTextField with regex validation: when you type something that don't mach regex it shows a JToolTip. This JToolTip should disappear when the text typed is finally correct, or when the textfield loses focus (see code below).

popUpToolTip.show();
}(I've cut it a bit, here's only the lines that involve JToolTip use)
I have many of them in a form, and when the first tooltip appears (on the first textfield I type in) it never disappears, while nex textfields work just fine.It seems the first tooltip appearing can't be overwritten or something similar. If I use this same component on any other NetBeans project, everithing works without issues.
I have some other custom components working the same way (JComboBox, JXDatePicker), and they had this "not disappearing tooltip" issue since I changed this
popUpToolTip = popUpFactory.getPopup(this, toolTip, getLocationOnScreen().x, getLocationOnScreen().y - this.getPreferredSize().height -1);
whit this
popUpToolTip = popUpFactory.getPopup(null, toolTip, getLocationOnScreen().x, getLocationOnScreen().y - this.getPreferredSize().height -1);
but if I try it on the JTextField all textfield's tooltips stay stuck there, not only the first one appeared (while other components still works fine).
This thing is really driving me crazy. Someone has an hint (or a link to another thread) which could explain this strange behaviour?
Thanks in advance.

LR 1.3.1 strange behaviour: L key adds keywords and removes pictures from collection

After updating to LR 1.3.1 yesterday I found a very strange behaviour that I cannot explain: While in the Library module and looking at a picture from a collection (in loupe mode) I cycle through the different light modes using the L key. Then suddenly (after several hits of the L key) a keyword is added (not always the same keyword) and at the same time an unknown number of pictures is removed from the collection. The keyword is not added to the picture I was currently viewing, but to another one from the same collection. This has not happened before and I have no idea what is going on. I can restore the collection by relaunching an older catalog but of course this does not solve the problem. Can anybody help?
(PC, Win XP prof SP 2, 4 Gig RAM)

It is possible that instead of hitting the l key, or perhaps within the same sequence of hits your are in fact accidentally hitting the k key.
K is the shortcut for "Add shortcut keyword"
Of course you would have had to set that particular keyword at some point and it does not explain the different keywords being assigned.
Unless the alt key was involved somehow and you were rating the images with 1-9 numbers. That would account for different keywords being assigned and would seem arbitrary.
To check: look at one or two of the images that you may have rated using a number key and then look at the keyword set the keyword came from. Press the alt key and a number from 1-9 will appear next to the keyword. If they match then thats the answer.
If you weren't rating the images this way then.....??
Perhaps there is a fault with the keyboard itself rather than the program.

Strange behaviour of Mouse-Events and Range size

Hello,
i found a strange behaviour of the Paragraph-Ranges in Word and can't explain this myself.
I have a add-in with a Custom Task Pane "UserControl1" and a button "Button1":
dropbox.com/s/zz2m0out5rvds0m/word.jpg
This is the Code for the user control:
public partial class UserControl1 : UserControl
public UserControl1()
InitializeComponent();
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
showRanges();
private void button1_MouseEnter(object sender, EventArgs e)
showRanges();
private void showRanges()
Debug.WriteLine("-------------------------------------");
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Paragraph para in Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs)
Debug.WriteLine(para.Range.Start.ToString() + " - " + para.Range.End.ToString() + " | " + para.Range.Text.ToString());
The mouse-enter and mouse-click events of the button, prints out the ranges of the current paragraphs. In this example it outputs:
0 - 15 | The first line
15 - 32 | And a second one
Thats fine!
And now the strange stuff starts: When i change something in the first line in the document like "The VERY first line" and use the button again, i got different range outputs for mouse-enter and mouse-click events.
mouse-enter event (wrong ranges):
-------------------------------------0 - 143 | The VERY first line
143 - 160 | And a second one
mouse-click event (correct ranges):
0 - 20 | The VERY first line
20 - 37 | And a second one
Why the hell I get wrong Ranges when I use the mouse-enter event??? (When I enter the button with mouse a second time, it shows the correct ranges again).

Hi Torben,
What is Word version?
According to my test in Word 2013, the code you provided works fine for me.
I changed the code as below:
private void showRanges(string eventname)
Debug.WriteLine(eventname + "-------------------------------------");
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Paragraph para in Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs)
Debug.WriteLine(para.Range.Start.ToString() + " - " + para.Range.End.ToString() + " | " + para.Range.Text.ToString());
private void button1_MouseEnter(object sender, EventArgs e)
showRanges("Button MouseEnter");
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
showRanges("Button Click");
The document:
The output:
The result is same.
There might be something else at the end of the first line.
If you change current document to .zip and find document.xml, what does it look like?
Here is my document.xml:
<w:body>

Strange behaviour from new 2012R2 in old domain

Hi all,
At work (education level), I'm starting to take charge of windows admin, so beiing a noob admin I'm finding strange behaviours that I hope you can help me solve them all :-)
We've one (big) domain with about 5000 computers (workers and students all together), and around 50000 users (again, workers and students all together) setup like this:
DC-DOMAIN-1:
Windows Server 2008R2
Shares NETLOGON and SYSVOL
DC-DOMAIN-2:
Windows Server 2003 R2 x64
Shares CertEnroll, NETLOGON, SMSLOGON, SYSVOL
Checking RootDSE, I see 'domainControllerFunctionaly is Windows 2003' (DC-DOMAIN-2)
So, with this setup, I've noticed these strange behaviours, hope list isn't too big (guess there will be more behaviours but these seemed too odd):
1) On DC-DOMAIN-2, WinServer 2003 eventlog, inside 'Directory Service', I found this warning event ID 1083 (Source NTDS Replication):
Active Directory could not update the following object with changes received from the domain controller at the following network address because Active Directory was busy processing information.
Object:CN=<an user name>, CN=Users, DC=DOMAIN
Usually followed by an information event (eventid 1955) which says:
ctive Directory encountered a write conflict when applying replicated changes to the following object.
Object:
<SAME USER OBJECT THAN PREVIOUS EVENT ID>
Time in seconds:
0
Event log entries preceding this entry will indicate whether or not the update was accepted.
A write conflict can be caused by simultaneous changes to the same object or simultaneous changes to other objects that have attributes referencing this object. This commonly occurs when the object represents a large group with many members, and the functional level of the forest is set to Windows 2000. This conflict triggered additional retries of the update. If the system appears slow, it could be because replication of these changes is occurring.
User Action
Use smaller groups for this operation or raise the functional level to Windows Server 2003.
And having as result that user being blocked in domain.
2) I've added a new print server based on Windows Server 2012R2 (running inside an updated ESX 5.5 with VMXNET3 ethernet adapter as recommended by vmware), and seen in the event viewer these warnings/errors:
At System log:
Error Event ID 5783, Source NETLOGON:
The session setup to the Windows NT or Windows 2000 Domain Controller \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name for the domain DOMAIN is not responsive. The current RPC call from Netlogon on \\PRINTSERVER to \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name has been cancelled.
I've seen Event ID 5783 with DC-DOMAIN-1 too....
Error Event ID 5719, Source NETLOGON:
This computer was not able to set up a secure session with a domain controller in domain DOMAIN due to the following:
The remote procedure call failed and did not execute.
This may lead to authentication problems. Make sure that
this computer is connected to the network. If the problem persists, please contact your domain administrator.
ADDITIONAL INFO:
If this computer is a domain controller for the specified domain, it sets up the secure session to the primary domain controller emulator in the specified domain. Otherwise, this computer sets up the secure session to any domain controller in the specified domain.
At Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-RemoteConnectinoManager/Admin found also this warning:
Warning Event ID 20499 Source TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager:
Remote Desktop Services has taken too long to load the user configuration from server \\DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name for user administrator
3) If I try Group Policy Modeling on DC-DOMAIN-1 (server 2008R2), everything works fine, no matter if I try it against DC-DOMAIN-1 or DC-DOMAIN-2, but if I try this from the Server 2012R2 (the one from point 2), I get this:
Simulation against DC-DOMAIN-2: Gets executed, but all GPO show as inaccessible, empty or disabled.
Simulation against DC-DOMAIN-1: Sometimes it gets executed as DC-DOMAIN-2, sometimes I get an error saying query can't be executed.
4) From server 2012R2, I usually manage printing GPO. If I click on the domain root (GPMC, forest, Domains, DOMAIN-NAME-ROOT) right pane, I get a pop up saying:
'A processing error ocurred collecting data using this base domain controller. Please change the base domain controller and try again'
After closing popup, right pane says something like 'DC-DOMAIN-2.fulldns.name' is the baseline domain controller for this domain.
No infrastructure Status information exists for this domain.
Click the Detect Now button below to gather infrastructure status from all of the domain controllers in this domain.
Pressing 'Detect Now' does nothing, and trying to select New Baseline DC shows again same pop up than before.
5) Last, but not least, I've feeling that GPO takes too much to apply. I've found scenarios in which even after executing 'gpupdate /force' correctly on client computer either local or domain admin, I can't see the new changes (gpresult says it has been
updated though). But couldn't find anything on eventlog that informs about problems with GPOs...
For all these strange behaviours I've noticed in last month that I started checking things as sys admin, I believe domain is damaged, or something is wrong there (not just my new server 2012R2, even if it's running inside an ESX, blehh), so please, any hint
on what to check, what to change, what to fix, would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Paul,
Honestly, I'm still trying to figure out all broken things reported by tests :( Guess Jesper's suggestion about adding a new 2008 DC to get rid of 2003 and start checking again after that may be best option.
I'll try to summarize list of things I believe are wrong:
running
DCDIAG /V /C /D /E /s:yourdcname > c:\dcdiag.log for every DC, shows different errors. They show things such as:
another domain running here (not administered by us, only relationship is that our users are shared with that domain, nothing else) appear when Printing out pDsInfo (as if they were DC of our domain too, but they do not even share RootDomain). Guess it
may be for a bug old sys admin had when clonning from his 2008R2 template, that forgot to change SID... I already noticed 1 year ago our print server shared SID with those DC, guess there may be more servers sharing SID too :-(
Within Starting test: Replications, I see few messages at Replication Latency Check, such as the one for CN=Schema, CN=Configuration, DC=<ourdomain>:
Latency information for 35 entries in the vector were ignored.
35 were retired Invocations. 0 were either: read-only replicas and are not verifiably latent, or dc's no longer replicating this nc. 0 had no latency information (Win2K DC)
On Services test, I see an
Invalid service type: RpcSs on DC-DOMAIN-3, current value
WIN32_OWN_PROCESS, expected value WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS
On SystemLog, I see LOTS of warnings/errors such as:
A warning event occurred. EventID: 0x80000002
Time Generated: 07/28/2014 08:21:54
(Event String (event log = System) could not be retrieved, error
0x503)
An error event occurred. EventID: 0xC0000003
Time Generated: 07/28/2014 08:22:18
(Event String (event log = System) could not be retrieved, error
0x3afc)
Missing entries on DNS (we've a static DNS)
netdiag.exe /v > c:\netdiag.log Showed again DNS problems such as our primary DNS pointing to all DC, secondary
DNS pointing just to DC with FSMO roles,...
repadmin.exe /showrepl * /verbose /all /intersite > c:\repl.txt Gave no errors, now I must check in detail
if every replica is correct
And finally,
dnslint /ad /s "ip address of your dc" gave more DNS problems:
One or more DNS servers may not be authoritative for the domain
One or more DNS servers did not respond to UDP queries
One or more zone files may have expired
SOA record data was unavailable and/or missing on one or more DNS servers
Sumarizing, guess it will be better to fix DNS problems, promote new 2008R2 DC to get rid of 2003 one, promote domain to 2008 too, check again for messages and relationship with other domain, and then come back here for support if needed
EDIT: Almost forgot to talk about SYSVOL folder. As said before, there are 426 GPO folders inside Policies. Of them, 375 have an inetres.adm files in it (smallest one 1398 KB, almost all of them 2307 or 2707 kb)....

Strange behaviour on text insert into a HTML pane

Hi all,
I am trying to fix a problem on inserting a span tag into an existing html page (in an EDITABLE JEditorPane).
The behaviour:
Assuming the cells in a table (3 rows, 2 columns) are numbered from 1 to 6, with cell one being the top left most, cell 2 top right, cell 3 middle left, etc.
1. Inserting the text "" in cell 4 causes during any attempt to later type into cell 5 the characters to be appended instead into cell 4, directly after the close span tag.
2. The insertion in the first place behaves strange. If I have the caret positioned for cell 5 so that I can insert there
(via the function void javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit.insertHTML(HTML Document doc, int offset, String html, int popDepth, int pushDepth, Tag insertTag) )
even though the caret position is visible in cell 5, the insertion seems to take place in cell 4.
I can sort of compensate for this by adding 1 to the offset. However, then when inserting into a line of text, for example, "the quick red fox jumped over the lazy dog"
I insert directly before the 'j' in 'jumped', the insertion looks like this "the quick red fox j..umped over the lazy dog"
So that is no solution.
IMPORTANT! Just to prove it is not the span tag causing the trouble, if this span tag already exists in a cell on 'Load' of the html file, the strange behaviour is not observed.
Something is going wrong here. It is me? Or is it a bug?
Please help!!
Here is a test app, and the test html you can use (place in current directory).
Please test like this:
1. run application (the html should be loaded into the pane)
2. the span tag is programmed to automatically insert at cell 4 (by using the +1 method on the insert)
3. another span tag was already existing in the html file, at cell 8
4. Attempt to type into cell 5
result: the text appears instead at cell 4
5. Type into cell 9
result: the text correctly is entered into cell 9
See the difference!!

fix another stuffed up attempt at a SSCCE.

Well, I know nothing about HTML in JEditorPanes. I have never been able to figure out how insertions work.
My comment was a warning to others. Some people (like me) avoid answering posting of this type for reasons given in the JavaRanch link. Others will answer anyway. Other might first check the other site to see if they are wasting there time, but they can only do that if a link was posted with the original question.
The only suggestion I have is to repost the question, (since this posting is now completely off topic) making sure to then respond to this posting stating that a fresh question has been asked so you don't get a discussion going on in two places.
