Unable to open windows database files hosted on Lion Server

I use Mac Mini as a server. With Snow Leopard Server I shared files hosted on Mac Mini and other PC computers on the network could use together Access and Quickbooks files. After upgrading to Lion Server no PC is able to open these database files. E.g. when opening MS Access file hosted on Lion server following error pops up: "too many users acessing the file". However, the Access database can be open from network PC when opening in exclusive (single user) mode. Normal multiuser mode brings error.
Is it possible to solve this Lion sharing issue?

Same problem. Just fired up a new Mini with Lion Server to replace an HP Home Server because we need more than 10 users in our church now. Got all the users set up with group permissions and home directories on the server. Unfortunately I expected Lion Server to work just like Snow Leopard Server and be able to serve up ODBC databases like Access and Quickbooks files.
Anyone heard if Apple has a solution to the "too many users" error message? It appears that Access in particular attempts to open the data file and create a locking file (ldb), but cannot get the file permissions it needs from Lion.
Sorry I have no solution for all yet.

  • Unable to open Windows installer file sql_rs.msi

    Hi all,
    I'm installing SQL Server 2008 r2 Enterprise edition in Windows server 2008 R2 for TFS setup.
    Previously i have tried Express Edition of SQl server.
    Later it was all uninstalled.
    I'm facing an issue during the installation, Unable to open the file specified sql_rs.msi file.
    Kindly someone help me out on this.

    Hi,
    According to your error message, this issue might be caused by the corrupted setup file, please check if your setup file is corrupted or not. If it is corrupted, please try to download it again and choose “Run as administrator” to reinstall. If the setup file
    is complete, the installer may have problems accessing the files on the C:\SQLFULL_ENU_x64\setup folder, as Prashanth’s post, you could try to copy the setup file to a different directory where your account has full control permission to this folder, then
    choose “Run as administrator” to rerun the file and check if the error still occurs.
    Thanks

  • Error #3125: Unable to open the database file

    Hello, my name is Alex.
    Since the CC 2014 update I am having lots of problems with Muse. I get the Error #3125 quite often, and some pages won't load in Design mode. I tried to open the file from a local drive, but still doesn't work.
    Could you please help out here? thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi,
    If this fix doesn't work try this...
    I've been having this problem too. I was using a server-side save location for the site and resources. I moved to my HDD and this seems to have resolved the error for me.
    Let me know if that resolves it.

  • Error message: "Unable to open the physical file" when trying to attach AdventureWorks database

    I have searched the internet and this forum and have not found an answer...
    I am trying to install the AdventureWorks database into my single instance of MS SQL Server Express 2005.  I am logged into my machine as an administrator and logged into SQL Server 2005 express 'sa'.  I attempt to run the following script:
    exec sp_attach_db @dbname = N'AdventureWorks',
    @filename1 = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf',
    @filename2 = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_log.ldf'
    The error message I get back is:
    Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
    Unable to open the physical file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf". Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)".
    The folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data" and all the files in it are read-write.  I am 100.0000% certain the files "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Data.mdf" and "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks_Log.ldf" exist!  They are the result of running the installation program AdventureWorksDB.msi, which I downloaded from: http://www.codeplex.com/MSFTDBProdSamples/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4004.
    What do I have to do to install the AdventureWorkds database????

    Hello,
    To try to help you, please, could you give some more informations ?
    - the operating system (XP/Vista), the edition ( Pro/Home...) and the service pack
    - usually, the installer installs the both files in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Sql Server\Samples. Is there any change in the location or have you moved the both files ?
    - could you check with the files explorer , that the 2 files are read-write and not read only( find one file, right-click on it, properties and in the 1st tabpage, you should see a checkbox read-only ( if checked , unchecke it ) ?
    - have you Sql Server Management Studio Express Edition ( at least SP1 ) ?
    If no, download it and use it to attach
    in the object explorer,
    click on your instance to expand it
    right click on databases
    in the contextual menu, click on attach
    in the new form,click on add
    you arrive on a second form : find your file , click on it, and OK
    it's the simplest way to attach ( the sp_-attach_db is complicated to type )
    the error messages are sometimes more clear in SSMSEE than in Sqlcmd
    Try also to attach ( thru SSMSEE or Sqlcmd but in using the windows authentification )
    NB: i hope that you are not trying to attach AdventureWorks on a remote instance and on a remote computer ( it would explain access denied )
    We are waiting for your feedback to try to help you more efficiently
    Have a nice day

  • [SQLSTATE 22001] (Error 8152)Unable to open Step output file.

    Hi,
    I have configured the backups from our SQL Server instance to tape directly with out storing in the local drive, so that the disk space allocated for storing the backups in the local drive is saved. 
    but i end up with the below error.
    Executed as user: CORP\devsqlservice. select       DATABASE_NAME   = db_name(sd.database_id)      from       sys.databases sd      where         -- ONLINE

    I am clueless , why i face this error, Do any one of you face such problems in backup (scheduled backups) job. 
    hemadri

    Hi Hemadribabu,
    >>”string or binary data would be truncated”
    As my research, the error above could occur in the case of passing string or binary data, whose length is larger than received object. So I recommend you to run the Transact-SQL script in SQL Server query window to check if this kind of issue exists, or
    you can post your entire script for further analysis.
    >> “unable to open step output file”
    In addition, as for the error above, this issue can be caused by two reasons below.
    1. The path of the output file is invalid. To fix the issue, please follow the steps below.
        a. Double click on the SQL Agent job.
        b. Switch to Steps tab, and click Edit.
        c. Click Advanced option.
        d. Change the path under Output file or delete the path. For a UNC path, you can 
    map a network drive and use the network drive instead.
    2. Your account doesn’t have access to the folder. Transact-SQL job step runs as the owner of the job step, or as the SQL Server Agent service account. So please check the type of the job step and the account which your job step runs as, and make sure that
    it has access to the folder. For more information about the process, please review the similar thread:

  • Unable to open windows using boot camp.  Get message "The bless tool was unable to set the current boot disk."  Any thoughts, Thank you.

    Unable to open windows using boot camp.  Get message "The bless tool was unable to set the current boot disk."   I am using an Imac , Lion operating system, and Windows 7.  It worked a few days ago.  Any thoughts, Thank you.

    Note that nowhere in the Boot Camp instructions does it tell you to use Disk Utility to format the Windows partition. The Boot Camp Assistant program creates the partition & sets the +partition scheme info+ of the disk as appropriate for the Windows installer but the Windows installer itself is responsible for formatting the new partition with the appropriate +file system scheme+ (NTFS for Windows 7).
    If you follow the instructions in the Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide to the letter you should have no problems installing Windows.

    can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently  i  stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the  sql server agent.
    should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
    note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
    ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
    Update:
    now am getting the message :
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.

    First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
    Use CMP_143
    Go
    Sp_helpfile
    Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
    Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
    EXEC @RC = sp_attach_db @DBName, @DESTData, @DESTLog
    Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file

    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)"
    Solution:
    Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.

    Hi,

    I am going to customize the standard report 'Printed Purchase Order Report', the rdf file is 'POXPRPOP'. but it is not getting any out put and xml tags also. even standard report also not getting any output and I noticed in logfile that the error like 'REP-0004 warning: Unable to open user preferance files'.
    I have tested in backend, its getting the data. then I have added command MO_GLOBAL.SET_POLICY_CONTEXT('S'.org_id) in before report trigger also. but getting same issue.
    Could you please help me wheather I need do any setups/modifications in RDF or Application. This is very urgency.

  • Unable to open the XML files in Nakisa

    Hi Gurus,
    We are unable to open certain XML files in Nakisa. They show up as encrypted in the notepad or fail to open using the XML Marker. The files in question are
    AppResources.xml
    LoginConfiguration_SAP_Standard
    LoginConfiguration_Anonymous
    Purpose: We want to enable the SSO with the portal . We have checked the radio button but nakisa does not recognize the SSO ticket from the portal (Any folder in Nakisa where we need to place the Portal ticket?)
    Also we want Nakisa to show the org chart for the logged in user. Luke had mentioned that some changes need to be made in the AppResources.xml (hope i correctly remember this) and we were looking to make these changes (rather try out.. any pointers please..?)
    Thanks and Regards,
    Arun E V

    Hi Arun,
    These files are encrypted. If your organisation is a partner with Nakisa you can obtain the decrypter from them.
    Portal SSO works without any configuration directly in the XML files. If you are getting an error stating that the Portal ticket cannot be interpreted then your configuration is not correct. In your URL iView you need to ensure the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is used for the application URL. In the Administrator Console you need to ensure you enter the system details (Host, Sys Nr and Client) for the backend system which holds your SSO ticket for that Portal. You need to use FQDN here too.
    There is additional security configuration that can be done in the XML files but SSO will still work with just the Administrator Console configuration.
    I hope that helps!
    Luke

  • Unable to open printer definition file

    hi,
    I am getting this message when running a report from

    The report called dbgpletw.rdf is using a defn file of "uniwide.prt" but is giving the error message
    Rep 1804 unable to open printer definition file "dbgpletw.rdf"
    I copied the report to test.rdf and ran it but comes up with message
    Rep 1804 unable to open printer definition file "test.rdf"
    Any ideas why the report thinks the defn file is what
    the report is called ??
    Thanks
    Ian

    Thanks for replying,
    I have given up trying to get the report to run via the
    reports server route to output a file using a .prt file.
    Since report ran fine under Reports Builder, i decided to look at for an equivalent to the "run reports" under 2.5 and found rwrun.exe.
    I ran this manually and to my suprise(?), my report ran and produced the required output. I incorporated the code into my forms application and now run host('rwrun report_name with parameters') and am now getting the output file as required.
    If you want any more info, please send me a reply
