Object of type Novell.Zenworks.ActionManager.ActionResult cannot beserialized{}

What the heck does
Object of type Novell.Zenworks.ActionManager.ActionResult cannot be
serialized{}
mean?
Seems like app deploy of ZESM 3.5 client is not reporting status to ZCM
10.1. ZESM client tries to deploy over and over and over and over. Ended
up having to set bundle requirements so it checks to see if c:\program
files\novell\zenworks security client\stengine.exe exists so it won't
install if it's already there. I don't really like this workaround.
It seems as though, partway thru the ZESM client install, the workstation
looses its connection to the network (I see the systray icon indicating
it's broadcasting for a dhcp address.). During this time, Adaptive Agent
cannot send updates to the zcm server. Eventually the workstation
reboots (even though I've specified in the bundle AND in the ZESM msi not
to reboot). When it comes up, ZESM client is installed, but Adaptive
Agent does not think so, and tries to install again. The occurs for
eternity, until I reimage the workstation, or go into safe mode and
disable services, etc... Which sure ain't cool.
Bundle is set to install MSI once per device. Runs as logged in user.
Run at user login.
Thanks in advance for any clues

I wasn't actually for sure if I did know what it meant. Sorry I was not
more open about that.
My understanding of serialization is simply a method to which move
objects, either to a file (stream) or to another object or system.

There might not be anything wrong with the bundle or package now that I
think about it. Of course we don't want the error message, but in general
there might not be anything wrong other than this specific situation.

I am wondering if the bundle is deploying the ZESM client and wants to
send back a message to the ZCM server about the launch status or
distribution status. This could be done, I don't know for sure as I am not
a developer for ZCM, but this could be done with serialization. So the
bundle is sending a status message back to ZCC, but the ZESM client
install is killing the network connection at the exact time this is
happening which is generating the serialization error.
We might need to do more testing before we can find a fix for this.
Are you saying that other simple bundles do not have this issue? Example:
A bundle that launches calc.exe does not have an issue?

Version missmatch of Novell.Zenworks.MDStatus.dll

Hallo together,
I downloaded the ZCM 10.3.3 patch "ZCM 10.3.3 combined patch for 'Cosmetic' error message when deploying bundles after 10.3.3 updated - see TID 7008298 and zac sts fix - see TID 7008374" (TID 5103230).
When updating according to the Method 3 or Method 4 of the TID (replacing the DLL on the destination machine) I get version 10.3.3.5691 for the file Novell.Zenworks.MDStatus.dll
But when REinstalling the whole Agent after applying Method 2 (or Method 1) to the Installation package I get version 10.3.3.9926 for the file Novell.Zenworks.MDStatus.dll
Is that only a cosmetic issue? A binary file compare of the 2 versions shows several differing sections between the 2 files on 2 different PCs.
I would assume that the singular Novell.Zenworks.MDStatus.dll within the package should have the higher version!
Thanks to you - Klaus

BachmannK,
I'd like to thank you for this information: the DLL that engineering
supplied as a separate file was indeed the older version, not the same
as the version in the MSI. I have updated the patch, and emailed
everyone (which includes you) who downloaded it. I will be speaking to
the engineering manager on Monday to try to find out how this
happened...

Moving from Novell Zenworks to Windows Server 2008 domain

I am trying to find ways to automate the process of moving between a Novell Zenworks environment to a server 2008 domain. The first problem to my understanding is changing the names of the machines to legal values in our Windows XP Pro Clients. They are currently mostly named, cata_rm#_computer# (where # is a defined value set manually). To my understanding underscore _ is an invalid character for joining a domain so we want to have an automated script that can easily be deployed over the network to basically replace all "_"with "-". Is this necessary or can this issue be handled easier ****her down the road on moving to a windows domain?
We would then like to be able to deliver a payload via zenworks that will cause all of Novell and Zenworks to be removed from the computer and once that is complete add the computer to the new windows domain. Ideally the payload could be easily run from a network share or flash drive as well. Unattended installers may be available for this software suite but we would want to combine the uninstall process with adding the domain so we can move from our poor zenworks domain to a windows domain without ever touching most of our machines.
This is not my project but I am interested in learning how this process could be completed as painlessly as possible hopefully learning something along the way. Anything from links to guides on where to get started looking to more developed solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

None the less the beginning of my problem, removing Novell is a Novell issue. Thankfully I have figured out most of the removal of novell and zenworks already, now just working on fixing the client names and joining the windows AD domain.

Novell.Zenworks.Registration.DEVICE_NAME_CHANGED

We had a problem with one workstation, where "something happened" and the user could no longer get past Zenworks Agent login window during login. The technician re-installed agent on workstation and this caused duplicate devices to appear in the zone, one named HOSTNAME and one HOSTNAME-GUID. Not a very big surprise there, such thing has happened before. Both devices were deleted from ZCC and we expected one new device to appear with name HOSTNAME, but it appeared with name HOSTNAME-GUID. Multiple attempts of deleting this device and re-registering with 'zac reg -g' have been made, and each time the device appears in ZCC with its new correct GUID appended to the hostname. In services-messages.log on the primary server, the following is seen:
Code:
Sep 15 13:36:32 thor [2838]: WARN: [09/15/2014 13:36:32.662] Registration Web Service Novell.Zenworks.Registration.DEVICE_NAME_CHANGED Device name already existed, changed to hostname-11c6b303036e09408f6c2aca017a7a40 while attempting to register host : HOSTNAME.
It seems that the old device still exists somewhere in Zenworks database, but I can't figure out how to find it. I've tried from ZCC to perform advanced search by, for example, device serial number or MAC address, and I find only the new device named HOSTNAME-GUID. Any ideas on how to solve this?
Both the managed device and primary server are running ZCM 11.3. Workstation is Windows 7 SP1 x64, server is SLES11 SP3 x86_64.

Even though the "phantom" device didn't turn up in search, it was there when I looked through the list of all devices in folder. As myself I couldn't delete it, even though I have given myself all the device rights. But when I logged in as Administrator I could successfully delete the device and all is good.

Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: The handle is invalid.

I'm stuck here trying to figure this error out.
2003 domain, 2012 hyper v core 3 nodes. (I have two of these hyper V groups, hvclust2012 is the problem group, hvclust2008 is okay)
In Failover Cluster Manager I see these errors, "Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: The handle is invalid."
I restarted the host node that was listed in having the error then another node starts showing the errors.
I tried to follow this site: http://blog.subvertallmedia.com/2012/12/06/repairing-a-failover-cluster-in-windows-server-2012-live-migration-fails-dns-cluster-name-errors/
Then this error shows up when doing the repair: there was an error repairing the active directory object for 'Cluster Name'
I looked at our domain controller and noticed I don't have access to local users and groups. I can access our other hvclust2008 (both clusters are same version 2012).

I came upon this thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/85fc2ad5-b0c0-41f0-900e-df1db8625445/windows-2012-cluster-resource-name-fails-dns-registration-evt-1196?forum=winserverClustering
Now, I'm stuck on adding a managed service account (mas). I'm not sure if I'm way off track to fix this. Any advice? Thanks in advance!

Thanks Elton,
I restarted 3 hosts after applying the hotfix. Then I did the steps below and got stuck on step 5. That is when I get the error (image above). There
was an error repairing the active directory object for 'Cluster Name'. For more data, see 'Information Details'.
To reset the password on the affected name resource, perform the following steps:
From Failover Cluster Manager, locate the name resource.
Right-click on the resource, and click Properties.
On the Policies tab, select If resource fails, do not restart, and then click OK.
Right-click on the resource, click More Actions, and then click Simulate Failure.
When the name resource shows "Failed," right-click on the resource, click More Actions, and then click Repair.
After the name resource is online, right-click on the resource, and then click Properties.
On the Policies tab, select If resource fails, attempt restart on current node, and then click OK.
Thanks

SAP table for finding Quant from the Handling unit

Is it possible to get the handle of a HTML UI element in JSPDynpage?

Hi Experts,
I am new to Portal Development and my current requirement is as follows:
User is provided an option to upload a file to KM from the JSP for which i used a HTMLB fileupload UI element. I was able to upload the file to the KM.
But the client wanted their specific theme for the Upload UI element to be set. The default Browse button was to be replaced by the custom image. We tried using CSS for setting the image as the background image, but failed doing it. We used the following code for achieving:
JSP Dynpage:
<hbj:fileUpload id="docupload"
        maxLength="125000"
        size="50"   />
JQuery:
var funcName = htmlb_formid+"_getHtmlbElementId";
func = window[funcName];
var HTMLBElementIdSubmit = eval(func("<UI ID>"));
$("#"+HTMLBElementIdSubmit.id).removeClass("urUpld ");
$("#"+HTMLBElementIdSubmit.id).addClass("<custom class>");
We tried using standard file UI in HTML and we are successful in setting the background image as per the clients requirement using JQuery to replace the standard look using:
$("[type='file']").removeClass("urUpld");
    $("[type='file']").addClass("btngrey");
But we are now facing the problem in the controller where the following line is throwing an error as we are unable to get the handle for a standard HTML UI element.
com.sapportals.htmlb.FileUpload.FileUpload imageupload = (FileUpload) getComponentByName("<ID>");
Kindly let me know more if either of the 2 points below:
1. Is there an option to customize the standard HTMLB fileupload UI element as per our choice using Javascript / JQuery?
2. Is there a way to get the handle in Dynpage controller for HTML UI elements?
Regards,
Poojith MV

Hi Poojith
Not sure if this would solve your requirment but just in case might be helpful:
1. We can mix up the HTML and HTMLB components in the JSP Page. However, can access only the HTMLB components in the controller. The following link refers to what customizations are offered by the HTMLB framework:
[http://www.sapdesignguild.org/resources/htmlb_guidance/]
2. Another option would be to use AbstractPortalComponents or a simple web app if that's feasible. (where custom UI themes, css and layout are more in control of the developers.)
Thanks

It's simple... I want the Illustrator pen tool to ALWAYS make corner annchor points and NEVER smooth. Right now I have to convert every single one of them, or I have to do a work around every time I draw a line and make one of the handles disappear. Is

It's simple... I want the Illustrator pen tool to ALWAYS make corner annchor points and NEVER smooth. Right now I have to convert every single one of them, or I have to do a work around every time I draw a line and make one of the handles disappear. Is there some simple setting out there that will just "make it so?"@

The video I am watching this guy is just dragging every line to make curves. And every anchor point is a corner. He is not switching back and forth between the pen and the anchor points tool, and he is not using the convert points tool. He draws a curved line and starts another straight line only to curve it with a click and a drag. It is super efficient, and I could save a world of time if I could figure out what he is doing.

EXCEL.EXE process is keep running even after closing all the handles

I am using Excel Report Instrument functions for creating excel application and sheet,workbook after reading/writing in to excel file am closing all the handles using CA_DiscardObjHandle (handle);     even after file is getting closed m checking it in TaskManager then one EXCEl.EXE process is keep running there,pls let me know how to deal with this....
Solved!
Go to Solution.

A Kumar:
Have you tried running the example program excelreportdemo.prj that ships with CVI? It ends the excel process by discarding multiple handles, and it works even if you're editing a cell or have an Excel dialog open, etc. Try running this without modification and verify that the excel process is closed when you quit the CVI app.
Here's the Quit function from excelreportdemo. It checks for and closes handles for the worksheet, chart, workbook, and excel application.
int CVICALLBACK Quit (int panel, int control, int event,
        void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
    switch (event)
        case EVENT_COMMIT:
            if (worksheetHandle)
                CA_DiscardObjHandle(worksheetHandle);
            if (chartHandle)
                CA_DiscardObjHandle(chartHandle);
            if (workbookHandle)
                ExcelRpt_WorkbookClose(workbookHandle, 0);
                CA_DiscardObjHandle(workbookHandle);
            if (applicationHandle)
                ExcelRpt_ApplicationQuit(applicationHandle);
                CA_DiscardObjHandle(applicationHandle);
            QuitUserInterface (0);
            break;
    return 0;

In ppro 6.5 had the ability to set motion with free form using the handles can't see where in ppro cc it can be done

In Adobe 6.5 I was able to use freeform motion path with distortion of the graphic to fly in the graphic can't see how to do that in Adobe cc premiere Pro CC I called up support and they said it's been transferred to after effects is that true?

PPro. 6.5 or the good old Premiere 6.5 The Premiere 6.5 simple motion has been updated in the programs monitor and has more options and styles now. You can also use the Effects control and use keyframes. One can also use various effects like perspective and more. It is all about your creativity. So the 6.5 motion is in the programs monitor.
Double click on the video in the program window and you will see the handles. I prefer playing with figures in the motion control window with the x, y, z axis. One can even do 3d motion in that window
