You might want to check metalink note 255023.1 - How to Interpret the Oracle Forms Error - FRM-93000 to get a better understanding of this error.
If your application has been running for a while without problems and then you hit this problem, it might be possible that you need to tune your Application Server, you can refer to metalink note 294749.1 - Troubleshooting WebForms Tuning / Performance /Time out Problems.
If I were you, I would open a SR with Oracle so that they help you with the investigation and to get more detailed logs ... this error FRM-93000 is a generic one, it simply says that your Form crashed/was terminated, it will require more investigation.

Support Pack PI_BASIS 'on hold'

Hi All,
I am trying to apply PI_BASIS 2006_1_700 to my Solution Manager 4.0.
I applied the delta ackage thru SAINT.
I have Background WP 'RFC on Hold' state error ( SM 50 ) repeatedly.
Details of the Hold WPs shows the line " waiting for " RFC ..for the Report SAPLSTPA ..
SM66 says CPIC STOPPED.
And ST22 shows no dump, SM21 shows no Err Msg.
There are also 2 Table Locks in SM12 ( PAT01 , CWBNTHEAD )
The Conversation Id shown in SM50 Details of WP ( which is on Hold State ) has no err in smgw.
Since it is at DDIC ACTIVATION PHASE, I can't reset the queue through the SPAM/SAINT.
Now I'm stuck in the DDIC activation phase.
When I go to sm37 I see the job
OCS QUEUE IMPORT Active with Duration 100,725 secs.
I had restarted the import but still it is showing the same status.
It is not writing any logs (SLOG /ALOG)
This has been the status for the past 2 days now !
Any Ideas? Shud I reset the queue? If yes, then how?

Hi,
First step you need to take care is that if system is in production dont reset queue.Contact SAP because at this time your system is inconsistent and only SAP will help you.
But if you still want to reset queue then follow this link [CLICK HERE|http://*************************/2008/11/troubleshoot-with-spam-at-your-own-risk.html]
But do it at you own risk.SAP will never help you if you ask them after doing all these activities.
Hope it will help you...

Email spam - BT now using a webform

Please can the moderators explain the reason BT have suddenly started using a webform to report spam. The method of sending to the abuse addresses now results in an email saying to "click" a link and enter details on a webform.
This makes it much harder to send reports, and will mean less people doing it - including myself.
This will actually lead to more spam from BT, since no-one will report the IP addresses of infected machines etc.
Please can this decision be reversed.
http://www.andyweb.co.uk/shortcuts
http://www.andyweb.co.uk/pictures

Hi Andy_N
I sent off a query about this and got the following response:
The purpose of the Webform is to provide a standard format for abuse reports into BT.
It will assist customers to provide information appropriate to the issue they are reporting and will ensure that BT can prioritise and manage issues efficiently.
BT will continue to operate and manage our abuse@ mailboxes alongside the Webform; we act upon all reports raised into BT.
So the option to use the original method is still availalble if you wish to continue using that method.
Cheers

Emails from my Blackberry are getting trapped by spam filtering

It's not a consistent thing, which makes this more aggravating, but I have my work email set up on my Storm (9530), and many times, when I reply to an email that involves my co-workers, my emails get trapped by our online spam filtering. Both my work email, as well as the "bis" Blackberry information has been added to the "whitelist", but these emails still have occasion to be trapped.
Can someone please help me get to the bottom of what is being embedded in the source header information from these emails that might be causing this problem?
I've noticed this is true of other emails originating from BlackBerry phones, regardless of the carrier.
Thank you.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
I'm thinking that you need to work with your SPAM filtration vendor...all of the header information is fully visible to an administrator who traps one of the captured emails. They need to compare that trapped email to the rules they have in their SPAM filter. I pretty much doubt that anyone "out here" could possibly have the level of access required to do any meaningful diagnostics. Unless I misunderstand your request...
Good luck!

When usung google search I get a listing but when I click on it gets replace with spam

When usung google search I get a listing but when I click on a link it gets replace with spam. I notice a half blue spiral in front of the link that pops up.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== every time I use use the Google Search in firefox

This seems to be going around. I haven't studied it in detail, but here is an example of a removal guide:
http://malwaretips.com/blogs/trovi-com-removal/
''There are many other removal guide sites, but often they are designed to confuse you so you purchase paid support services. Most likely you won't need to do that in this case.''
Please also see our support article on cleaning up malware, and the specialized forums listed toward the end: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
In the short run, assuming an extension is to blame, you may want to use Firefox in its Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).

Outgoing mail spam blocker

I know this has been reported before, but it has become a real problem for me in the last two days and I am really getting annoyed.
I send out an email newsletter and other messages via a Yahoo group, and Tuesday my main message was blocked, and yesterday two more messages were blocked. I tried a chat with a Verizon rep, and the rep told me I could not send a message to more than 500 people - I patiently explained that I was sending it to *ONE* address which then took care of distribution, but was still *required* to try sending it to another address to verify I was not sending out 500 messages. Sheesh.
The chat was USELESS.
I have forwarded all three messages on to the "big brother spam permission" email address, and of course they do not respond, but only tell you to try an hour later to see if they "have adjusted their filters."
I understand that Verizon considers their mail system to be "free" and thus of low priority, but come on guys - this is the worst customer service I have seen lately.
FIX THIS, PLEASE!

As stated in the Spam FAQ page, you will not get any response when sending the message to [email protected] for review. You attach the message that you are unable to send, and they review it. Depending on the outcome of the investigation, the filter will either be updated to allow the content that was previously blocked, or it will be determined to be a legitimate block and no changes will be made.
Some troubleshooting steps you can try:
If you have a signature, try removing one line at a time from it and attempting to send the message again. Some signatures look like "ads" to the filters, apparently.
If you are using a pop3 client (Outlook, Outlook Express, etc.) try sending your message from the verizon.net website. If this resolves the issue, then it is something that your client is adding to the message that is causing it to be blocked.
If the Subject line of your message has a whole bunch of "Fwd: Fwd: Re: Fwd:" try removing some of them.
Remove any links/URLs from the email one at a time to isolate if one of them is causing the block.
Some people have suggested sending the message to [email protected] for investigation. This may work for you as well.
If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem.

Yahoo mail tool bar (delete,more,spam,etc) not working in firefox.Works in Explorer.Web search points to Mozilla update problem."Plug-ins" up to date. Solutions?
I've used firefox for years now with out problems. Now that help is needed, Could you make this any more frustrating? I thought I was asking Mozilla help and I'm sent to "users". I went there 1st! there are similar questions but no answers. I've lost time and data. Is there any REAL PEOPLE to help with firefox problems?

I'm a real person, thanks.
If you mean, does Mozilla have paid staff you could phone or email, the answer is "No."
Is the problem with a feature of the Yahoo! mail web page itself, or the Yahoo! toolbar?
General advice:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
''If Firefox is not running:'' Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.
''If Firefox is running:'' You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
''Both scenarios:'' A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Refresh).
Any difference in how Yahoo! works?

Why is the above considered spam?
I have tried changing port to 587 and have finally been able to send info to the spam web page. Hopefully they can correct this soon. I never had this problem with Comcast. Hope to resolve ASAP or will be canceling all my server with verizon. Thanks for any suggestion!

The best way to resolve this issue is to send the message as an attachment to [email protected] so the message an be reviewed and the filters updated. Unfortunately, you won't get a response back about the status/result of this process. The filter is scanning the content of your message for anything that "looks" like spam.
Some troubleshooting steps you can try on your own:
If you have a signature, try removing one line at a time from it and attempting to send the message again. Some signatures look like "ads" to the filters, apparently.
If you are using a pop3 client (Outlook, Outlook Express, etc.) try sending your message from the verizon.net website. If this resolves the issue, then it is something that your client is adding to the message that is causing it to be blocked.
If the Subject line of your message has a whole bunch of "Fwd: Fwd: Re: Fwd:" try removing some of them.

I'm getting Spam links in a chat website

In a website that I belong to that has chat functions....I occasionally notice that a random word or poster's name is sometimes highlighted in a dark blue color. When my cursor goes over that word/name, I get a Spam popup...or sometimes a direct link to some Spam. I called the administrator of the website and no one else is experiencing this problem. I tried opening the website in Chrome and in IE and I could not duplicate the problem...it appears to only occur in Firefox.

There are other things that need your attention.
Your system details list shows that you have two Flash plugins. 
You should remove the older Flash 11.3 plugin.

When I open gmail in Safari it opens to the spam tab. Can I change this to the Priority tab? How?

I would prefer to use Safari, but have a problem with it in connection to gmail, my preferred mail account. When I open gmail in Safari it always goes directly to the "Spam" tab in gmail. (I have three gmail tabs for sorting mail: Priority, Social and Spam.) To get to the mail that I care about (Priority) I have to close that Spam tab and then open the "Priority" tab. How can I change the settings so that when I open Gmail it is the Priority tab content that shows first on my screen? In Firefox, Priority mail is the first thing I see when I open Gmail. Why isn't this true in Safari? And how can I make it so?

Hi alanbala,
There are several possible reasons why the new window opens in the background and not in the foreground by default.
# another installed program is causing this
# the Firefox main window is set to Always on Top
# probably a Windows 7 bug
# possibly a Firefox bug [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790013 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790013]
What you can do is
# update your Windows 7 to the latest security patches
# open Mozilla Firefox in Safe Mode (see KB article [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]])
# evaluate the other programs installed on your computer
# open new links on a new tab
Let us know your progress. I will be following this support thread.

Verizon Outgoing Spam Detector is Seriously Flawed

Several times in the past few months I've tried to respond to emails to me with simple, one or two line comments. This has been done from Outlook. In each case Verizon bounced my email as being spam. Absolute nonsense. I sent the email as per their Spam Detector instructions, but they did nothing, as a second sending of the same email reply was blocked. What is going on if a residential customer cannot even send a simple email reply? Of course, there is no one to talk to, as they don't seem to care.

As stated in the Spam FAQ page, you will not get any response when sending the message to [email protected] for review. You attach the message that you are unable to send, and they review it. Depending on the outcome of the investigation, the filter will either be updated to allow the content that was previously blocked, or it will be determined to be a legitimate block and no changes will be made.
