10.4.7 Update Broke Filemaker 8 Web Publishing

After installing 10.4.7 security update, my Filemaker 8 Webserver no longer functions. I have rebuilt permissions, which had no effect, and Filemaker tells me I need to rebuild the entire server back to 10.4.6.
How do I back out the 10.4.7 update to restore back tp 10.4.6?

James,
We run FileMaker 8 Server Advanced also. Our set up is FileMaker Server and WPE on a 10.4.7 client with all updates and the Web console and interface on our 10.4.7 Server also with all updates. Our site is still working as set up.
Something that may help... Have you updated your FileMaker Server Advanced to the newest version which works with FileMaker Pro 8.5 features? We did that and found that when FileMaker was put into "production mode" in the FileMaker Web Admin Console we got nothing but errors back. Returning to "development mode" put everything right again. FileMaker knows about this and presumably will fix in the next update.
As far as reverting to 10.4.6... I think you may be out of luck. Each time I have seen that discussed here the answer seems to be to reinstall and only update to where you want to be. The more experienced members here also have suggested to back up your system to a bootable disk image before doing any updates so that you can easily go backwards if needed.

Filemaker web publishing / port 80 problem

Since installing OS X Server a few months ago, I've gotten reports of remote users not being able to access our web-published Filemaker database. Or rather, the only browser that will currently display our web-published DBs properly is Safari.
The problem: in any browser other than Safari (I should mention our remote users run Windows XP with IE 6), port 80 is removed from the URL when the user hits enter/commits the URL. The result is a blank page with the Filemaker header image...
I've scanned our Web server settings, Filemaker's web publishing engine, and our LAN firewall for clues, but nothing seems amiss. Any ideas?

Sounds like something is not quite right with your firewall.
I don't get why your need to add :80 to the url for your server in the first place. Are you able to advise why you need to?
What do you see if you go to http://yourserver.com:80 and http://yourserver.com (rather than with the /fmi/iwp/... added)?
I assume port forwarding is turned on for port 80 to forward to your FMPro server? This might be a good place to start poking for things that are not quite right.

Can't update SQL 2014 DB during web publish from Visual Studio 2013

According to Visual Studio 2013 I have "SQL Server Data Tool 12.0.40706.0" installed, which should allow me to update a SQL 2014 database but when I try to publish my web application I get the error: "Web deployment task failed. (Could not
generatedeployment script. Internal Error. The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider is not valid. You must make sure the service is loaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database
platform service. Internal Error. The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider is not valid. You must make sure the service isloaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database platform
service. Learn more at:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_EXECUTING_METHOD.)" I can update the database fine if I go into the package managment console and run -UPDATE-DATABASE but I don't want to have to go into myweb.config, update it to point to the production
database, run the update command, and then change my web.config back everytime I try to update my database. What do I have to do to getthis working? I had no problems when I was on an Azure DB.

Actually problem seems to be related when web publish to remote server. I tried local web publish to sql2014 db and it works.
For remote server web publish works to sql 2012 express db but when try with sql 2014 express db on same server get bellow error.
Error message "The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider
is not valid. You must make sure the service is loaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database platform service."
Any ideea what may be causing it? I have installed the sql server 2014 express with advanced services x86, exact same version as on my local machine, and also restarted server after install. Need install/configure anything else on server like SSDT 2014 to
make this work?
Cheers!

Bridge mode, share a public IP address,& Filemaker instant web publishing

I have finally wrestled my Time Capsule into working order as a router. For some reason, when I try either to use the router in Bridge Mode or Distribute a Range of IP addresses, I couldn't connect to the internet through an ethernet cable to a ComCast cable modem. It works fine with Share a Public IP Address, so I'm happy . . . until I went back to the filemaker instant web publishing.
The instant web publishing seems to need an absolute address (e.g. 67.123.45.23) rather than the relative address (e.g. 10.0.1.4). I tried to go to Whatismyip.com to get my actual IP address, but I can't get to it that way either. Is there any way to keep the relative addresses distributed by the Time Capsule while sharing an IP, but still have a fixed IP to publish the filemaker database to? Any help would be tremendously appreciated.

Well, my posts a year late, but just a suggestion:
From what you said about how "The instant web publishing seems to need an absolute address (e.g. 67.123.45.23) rather than the relative address (e.g. 10.0.1.4)." I think I might remind you that they meant a "static IP", which doesn't change every time you connect. An absolute IP would be virtually impossible unless you requested it from a top-tier company. (And yes, you can subscribe to a service that gives you one, but it's way more than any ordinary person can afford) The other option, which you (and the rest of us) are using is a dynamic IP. It assigns an IP to each of our computer every time we "log on" to the internet
But, if you say that you only need instant web publishing, you can always try some kind of service like dynDNS that can redirect any (of your) domain(s) to your IP every time you connect.
dynDNS is free, but has business accounts....
(iWeb, on the other hand, is entirely different. iWeb is designed to export the website to Apple's server, therefore you do not need to deal with the whole IP thing.)

Airport, Filemaker Pro 8.5 and Instant Web Publishing

I have a static IP address, with airport configured to distribute to 3 other computers and a printer, using 10.0.1.1 addressing.
In Filemaker, I've designed a data base, turned Instant Web Publishing On, the url showing is:
10.0.1.3:591 (I've set port 591 for use, as it is specifically for FMP.) The file is open, and testing with Safari using (10.0.1.3:591) the DB works flawlessly.
Coming from an 'outside' computer, I've tried the static URL with :591, and Safari returns "Server stopped responding". Obviously, I have something incorrectly set - can anyone tell me where I've gone wrong?

Sounds like you haven't told the router/base station to forward external connections on port 591 to your server.
By default your router is going to block all incoming traffic. If you're running a server inside your network that you want external users to access you need to tell your router that. It needs to know to accept connections on port 591 and forward them to the internal server. Not surprisingly this is known as 'port forwarding' and is discussed at length here and on other forums.
If you're using an AirPort Base Station you can use the AirPort Admin Utility to setup port forwarding. Add port 591 (and/or any other ports you want accessible from the outside world) and tell them which internal machine the traffic should go to (10.0.1.3 in this case) and you're set.

Does AIR run on a desktop but get updates through the web?

i'm trying to figure out if AIR is a solution for a project I have. We have Flash CBT programs that were up till now deployed via disk. The company has gotten very large and its too combersome to have to update all their locations by disk. They want all updates to come from a centeral location on their web server. Thsi Flash application is much too robust for standard web deployment. A lot of images and audio and a 2 hour run time. Is it possible with AIR to just publish the Flash application out as AIR and have it run on each stores desktop but have it get updates via the web?

Yes you can make an AIR application that's updated through the web, even automatically if you want. The AIR application runs locally and only gets stuff from servers when it's specified to do so. What do you mean with "a shell that pulls in lots of different files works with AIR?"

Web publishing tool not working

Hello guys,
I am trying to do web publishing of my VI. The problem that I am facing is that it is working on one system but not on my other computer. Both the computers have evaluation version of LabVIEW and the operating system is Windows XP.
Here are the other details that I have -
1. The Web server is enabled by going to Tools >> Options >> Web Server
2. Port 80 is not blocked on both the computers.
3. Firewall is disabled on both the computers. Even the antivirus is disabled.
The error message that I am getting has been put in the attachment. The error text is " You must start the LabVIEW web server before previewing in your web page. Would you like to start now? " After this when I click yes, it is still not publishing.
Could anyone please let me know what might be the issue? I am unable to figure out why it is working in one and not on the other. For my application, I need to use both the computers.
Yours sincerely,
Herok

How can i view a web published Vi from my iphone 4.0???

Hello,
I am able to see the web published VI from any computer using firefox or IE, but when i open safari on my iphone and enter the IP i get a little image with a question mark
does anyone knows how to solve this problem???
Thank you

Austin S wrote:
One unfortunate issue with the iPhone is that it doesn't allow applications that can execute interpreted code such as the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine, so it doesn't look like we can directly run that on the iPhone. However, there are some pretty good links below that walk through how to actually be able to use a web services VI in conjunction with the iPhone.

Thanks Austin S
but i was looking for a simpler solution!! it is just frustrating to see how people with android are able to monitor the VI by just enter the server IP address and name of the HTML with their phones and I can't with my iphone or ipad using safari
thanks

Airport utility 5.3.2 update broke configuration functionality

After upgrading to the newest apple airport utility I can no longer read the configuration of any of my airports. Using an extreme and airport express.
I open the application, it shows my 2 airport networks but when I try to run any kind of configuration on them then it stalls at the 'reading configuration' screen.
This is quite a serious problem for me as this effects a work network that I need to be able to update. This is like the 3rd or 4th time something that was supposed to be an update broke functionality. Very disappointing. If someone is still on the old version, perhaps they could eMail it to me ?
Specs of the effected computer and what it is effecting :
Intel 2.4gz iMac

Updating data in Web Forms

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to update data in web forms :
* periodically (every 10 seconds for examples)
* from the server (in a trigger or something like that) for all clients connected
Thanks

Taz,
for the first a timer could do that. The second is not possible without having asynchrous message support in Forms. There are plans for such a feature but its not yet implemented

Dynamic update of EJB/Web deployment descriptors

In 8.1SP3, is there any provision to allow for dynamic update of EJB/Web deployment descriptors? I'm specifically looking at env var changes.
I noticed that there are some mentions of the ability to dynamically update deployment descriptors, but it appears that the general facility has been deprecated, and they've incorporated all of the WebLogic-specific descriptor information directly into the console.
When I dig through the JMX namespace and some of the MBean classes, I also see mentions of "deployment descriptor editors", but it's not clear how to utilize that.
I'm aware of the fact that my application would have to be aware of possible dynamic updates to the descriptors, so I'd have to be able to implement some sort of listener for that.

I have the same question but for a different purpose. I am part of a hosting group and we have app teams that have defined init-params in the web.xml that have to be changed as the app is promoted up through test environments and ultimately to production - only we need to be able to do this WITHOUT "cracking open" the archive.
I was hoping to be able to script something to do the update after deployment.
So any help at all would be appreciated. In the meantime will continue to poke around in the WLST and MBean docs.
Thanks,
Ed

Can I download the Illustrator 3.3 update from the web?

How can i update Illustrator 3.3 without an internet connection for the auto updates at home???
is there anyway to do it?
i was able to download the Indesign update at work and take it home for my home machine....but i don't see the Ilustrator updates or patches

Illustrator 3? You sure about that?
You don't necessarily need to do the Auto-Update procedure. But in this day and age, it is assumed there is a www connection somewhere.
You can download updates from the web site at any time. Look to the top of this page ^^^^^
Click Downloads > Updates. Then choose the product you want an update for.
You can then copy that file to any system and run it.
If that's just not at all possible, call Adobe Customer Service. They may be able to ship you an update CD or something.

What ports to open between Connection broker and Web access hosts

I have setup a 4 node 2008 R2 RDS farm (1 connection broker, 1 Web access, and 2 session hosts.) They were all built from the same image, but the web access and connection broker will not talk to each other. They are all on the same subnet, and ips are x.x.x.200-203 The Web access server can ping the Sesions hosts, the session hosts can ping each other, web access and the connection broker. But the Web access and Connection broker cant ping each other. I turned off the windows firewall and they can ping, and connect... So whats ports does it need open?
Thanks!

Why does my Web Publishing Tool fail to create an image of my front panel when I select the "Embedded" viewing mode?

I am trying to create an html file for access by a client computer through the LabVIEW Web Server. I want to enable the client to control the vi, so am chosing "Embedded" for the Viewing Option in the Web Publishing Tool. The small preview screen in the Web Publishing Tool shows an image of my front panel, but the resulting html file does not include this image. The Web Server error log shows a 404 error which I believe is due to the lack of an image (or any front panel objects) present in the html file: Error: 404 "Not Found" for "/.lv_frontpanelprotocol.rpvi100", file "c:/program files/national instruments/labview 2010/www/.lv_frontpanelprotocol.rpvi100": Can't access URL
If you are aware of this problem or know any solutions, please post a reply.
Thanks,
David

Does it work if you preview the web page locally?
Does the client computer have at least the minimum 2010 run time engine installed?
