Same happening here. Problem appeared here after
[2012-05-14 14:24] upgraded libvirt (0.9.11-2 -> 0.9.12-1)
Can you confirm?

  • Uncaught error java nullpoint exception, email icons disappeared, application loader unable to back up data, desktop manager unable to connect

    Model:  Curve 8900
    Provider: At&t
    Platform: 4.2.0.108
    I'm ready to throw this phone in the blender.... if I could only back up my data first. A couple of months ago the What's App application required an update. I updated it and ever since my phone has steadily had more and more issues. First, I kept getting this uncaught error message, shortly thereafter the 2 email accounts (both gmail) that I have linked to the account disappeared. The message icon shows that I have messages, but icons not there (I have tried the show all option). At one point the message icon started exponentially adding the number of messages until it got up to over 86,000. When I reboot the phone it goes back down and then steadily increases again... usually though it's more to 400 - 500 rather then tens of thousands. I have been trying to install updates and do a wipe of the BB so that I can start from scratch, unfortunately the application loader is unable to back up data. The desktop manager is unable to connect to the blackberry and indicates that an upgrade is required. I have tried doing the upgrade both directly from the phone and connected to the desktop manager, but nothing seems to work. If I try to upgrade the software directly from the BB, I get to the start download button and when I click, nothing happens. I have removed all applications except bberry app world and one game that I play, Pixelated Plus. Still nothing. Any ideas?

    Do you want to save the messages?
    If not (and I think they are the problem) open the Desktop Software > Device > Delete Data and click the "select Data" option. Select the Messages to remove. Complete the prompts and finish.
    Then, return to backup the entire device, and see if that is possible to complete this time with no messages.
    Now, once the back up is done and you have your data, you can disconnect the device.
    Now, use BBSAK to wipe the device and subsequently load the new operating system.
    **If you cannot complete the backup again above, you might have to do without it, OR you can use the Desktop Software to sync your Address book, calendar, memos and tasks to Outlook. OR, you can easily install and use BlackBerry Protect to backup your device over the air to RIM servers, then once wiped and the new OS reloaded, you can use Protect to restore the data back to the 8900. << This you should do regardless.
    Good luck, post back here as you have questions.

  • VMWare Multi-Hypervisor Manager - Unable to connect to host

    I have installed a VMWare Multi-Hypervisor into a test environment running vCentre 5.5. However, when am trying to add Microsoft Hyper-V, it says "Unable to connect to Host".
    Winrm are enabled on the Hyper-V host. Also, tried to manually add its IP on TrustedHosts in Winrm. Still no go. Can somebody please provide some directions.

    Hi,
    Hyper-V 2012 R2 is not supported by Multi Hypervisor Manager, hence your issue with adding the host.
    You can refer to the Release Notes for further information.

  • Adobe Connection Manager unable to connect to Adobe Servers

    Hello,
    I have found many threads for that topic, but non helped me solve my issue.
    I haven't been using my application in quite a few months. A few weeks ago I started again and always get the message that my membership could not be verified because it cannot connect to the Adobe Servers. I started the Application Manager and get the same message there.
    I tried everything in this document: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html and all steps are successful
    I tried to connect my laptop directly with the LAN cable to the modem, still no success
    I don't use any Proxies.
    I disabled my firewall and Antivirus, Spyware, etc. applications, still it says it cannot connect.
    I tried to download the Desktop Application, but also get the message it cannot connect to the servers.
    I really do not know what to check anymore. I have no problems with secure sites or anything else I am using.
    Any suggestions what else could be the problem?
    Side note: It says to set the clock correctly. What time yone does it check against? My Windows is German, he CC is German, I am in Germany and use the correct timezone. I often use the US formatting of numbers and date formats, because I need it hat way for work. I tried it with both US and German settings, though. Makes no difference.
    Thank you!

    If you are a home user then enable the Hidden admin, restart and try to update/activate. Check here for instructions on enable/disable Hidden admin : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/
    If connected to corporate network then contact your IT department to see if Firewall or Proxy server is blocking the activation.

    I have tried almost everything, from reverting to older git checkouts and the 0.6.5 stable release to updating virtinst, virtviewer and virt-manager to the latest hg builds. None of this worked, and I can't seem to find anything about this error on google either.
    Does anyone have a solution?

  • [Solved] No sound from VM (Windows 7) on qemu with virt-manager

    I posted this in Newbie corner,
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176131
    but let me re-post here becase it is about sound matter.
    I have installed Windows 7 (64bit) on qemu with virt-manager.
    It seems that audio works fine inside the guest os, but I can hear no sound.

    Self reply.
    Finally, I got to hear sound from windows 7 as guest OS.
    I gave up to use virt-manager and launches OS image by command line
    like follows.
    % export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=alsa
    % qemu-system-x86_64 /mnt/win/win7qemu002 -cpu kvm64,+nx -enable-kvm -m 1536 -soundhw hda -usb
    Then, sounds works good.
    # However, the quality is bad because of heavy CPU load.
    Virt-manager may make things complex..
    Sorry for the duplicated post.

    I'm having the same issue.  Not running Windows though... I have a minimal Ubuntu 14.04 as the guest (Arch as the host.)  Been trying everything I can think of but I can't get any sound in virt-manager.  Like you said, the sound seems to play OK in the guest, it's recognizing the card, volume is turned up but no sound.  It has to be an issue with my host configuration but I'm not sure what.  I can get sound to play in the same guest if I launch qemu directly and use ac97.  Something's gotta just be misconfigured with virt-manager/libvirt/Spice.  I thought a permissions issue at first since by default it runs as the "nobody" user but I even tried the foolish thing of setting /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf so qemu runs as root... still no go.  I'd really like to use virt-manager for the nice GUI, presistant settings, and extra features like Spice and the QXL driver that enables KMS on the guest.

  • I am getting the error "Unable to connect to data warehouse management server" when I try to register it DWMS

    I have a Data Warehouse Server that appears to be functioning but is running System Center Service Manager 2010 (w/ out SP1), Also have a functioning Configuration Management Server with Reporting Services Point installed the is running System Center
    2012. Both systems are VM's running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise w/ SP1 fully patched. Both systems are running SQL Server 2008 R2 as well. When I try to register the Data Warehouse Server via the GUI using the console or in Powershell it errors

    let me know if this works.

    Hi,
    Please try the following steps to narrow down the issue:
    1. Uninstall and reinstall .NET package in Exchange server.
    2. Under location C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\CONFIG, took a copy of Machine.Config.default, renam it to Machine.config and copy it under this path again.
    3. Do IIS reset by running iisreset from a Command Prompt window.
    4. Reboot the server and verify whether the Exchange services are started.

  • SCVMM 2012: Unable to connect to the VMM management server localhost:8100

    Hi everyone
    I have difficulties connecting with the Admin UI to the SCVMM server running on the same machine. This is the error message I see:
    Unable to connect to the VMM management server localhost. The Virtual Machine Manager service on that server did not respond.
    Verify that Virtual Machine Manager has been installed on the server and that the Virtual Machine Manager service is running.
    Then try to connect again. If the problem persists, restart the Virtual Machine Manager service.
    ID: 1602
    I checked that the service is running and checked with the Resource Monitor that vmmservice.exe is really listening on port 8100. The Resource Monitor also shows some traffic between itself, the service and the DC. But all traffic dies down after a few seconds,
    then nothing happens for a minute, then I get the above error message. The only SCVMM related entry in the eventlog is this (was logged when I manually tried restarting the service):
    Failed to stop service. System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    at Microsoft.VirtualManager.Engine.VirtualManagerService.OnStop()
    at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.DeferredStop()
    But I guess that entry is of no help. Other important things that might be relevant:
    This installation worked fine three months ago. Since then only the automatic updates were installed.
    DPM (the 2012 CTP for Win8) is installed on the same server.
    After it didn't work I installed SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 (offered by Microsoft Update)
    SCVMM is part of a small test installation (~10 VMs or so), no valuable data, so there's no risk when messing around
    Control panel shows the version number 3.1.1042.0 for "Microsoft System Center 2012 Virtual Machine Manager".
    Is there anything else I could try? How can SCVMM stop to work, all by itself? Leaves a sour taste...
    Cheers,
    Simon

    When such odd behaviour occur, it is a good tip to start a VMM trace to see where things are actually going wrong. And suck files is interestin for MS support once the obvious things for errors, are eliminated out of the picture.
    VMM has dependencies such as SQL, permissions and service accounts. All of these variables does
    also have dependencies that should be verified. Verify that the account for the service does is not locked/expired pwd, that the SQL is up and running - and actually is working. There is a lot of logs to check in order to determine the root cause of
    this behaviour.

  • Unable to connect to the Data Access service for this management server

    Hate to raise a sleeping horse but was hoping someone might have some insight into why SCOM Report Server install is failing. I am using a domain account for SCOM 2012 R2 services in a distributive environment
    with 2 management servers and 2 SQL servers…one for Ops db and one for DW db.
     Install was failing on selecting the management server. Research led me to
    Kevin Holman's site. I followed his doc and SPN are set per your config and can telnet to MGMT1 on 5723…firewall is off on all servers. I am a domain admin and scom.mgmt account (MSOMSdkSvc) is a local admin on the MGMT servers.

    When I point to the MGMT server, I keep getting “Unable to connect to the Data Access service for this management server. Ensure the Data Access service is running and that the service, the management group, and setup are
    all the same version”.
    OpsMgrSetupWizard.log states…

    When I searched on "Exception.Message: Version string portion was too short or too long" it led me to .Net strings in the reg. i deleted all refs to older versions (3.x) but still no good.

    Well, I’m back to trying to get SCOM Report Server up and running. This time I decided to try the command line silent install and rely on logs to debug. But it still fails.
    This is the script: SETUP /install /InstallPath:D:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Operations Manager /components:OMReporting /ManagementServer:<server>.<domain> /SRSInstance:<instance> /DataReaderUser:<domain>\<account>
    /DataReaderPassword:******** /SendODRReports:0 /UseMicrosoftUpdate:0 /AcceptEndUserLicenseAgreement:1
    When I run the script, I get a pop-up: “System CenterOperations Manager Setup has stopped working with the following:

  • Unable to connect to the database instance using Enterprise Manager.

    I just install Oracle 10gr2 in my computer and after successful installation created a database instance which also install successfully. I then configure the listener using Net Manager and then start the database instance, the listener and dbconsole, everything seems to work fine and checking the status of this services from the command prompt indicates everything started successfully. But when I try to use Enterprise Manager I was directed to the Database Down Page with a message unable to connect to database instance. I try to use startup and perform recovery but every time I log-in to the database an error message comes out:
    SQLEXCEPTION
    ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
    ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified.
    It seems for Enterprise Manager to connect to the database it needs to access this NLS(National Language Support) data files or specify an environment variable to point to this data files. I am just new to Oracle and I am having difficulty solving this particular problem. Where is this data files located and how do I configure Enterprise Manager to access this NLS data Files?
    Any help however small will be highly appreciated.

    Are you able to connect to the database via SQLPlus?
    What Operating System are you using?
    Assuming Windows, can you RUN regedit to open Windows Registry and check the value or NLS_LANG when you select
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\KEY_<your_oracle_home>
    Examples of vaules you may find:
    1. ENGLISH_UNITED KINGDOM.WE8MSWIN1252
    2. AMERICAN_AMERICA.US7ASCII
    3. AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
    4. FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8MSWIN1252
    5. GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8MSWIN1252
    If you are not able to connect to SQLPlus, from the command prompt try setting one of the above:
    e.g.
    D:\>set NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
    D:\>sqlplus /nolog
    SQL>connect sysman/password

  • Unable to connect SQLState=IM004 ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHand

    Hi All,
    When I have tried to create dsn connection it start throwing the following error,
    do you have any idea how to resolve this..
    Unable to connect SQLState=IM004 ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHand

    Install an updated version of the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) from Microsoft @ <http://www.microsoft.com/data>. The version of the ODBC Driver Manager on the failing machine isn't aware that ODBC 3.51 is a valid version of the protocol.
