Aperture writing to the console log

The Console application receives a lot of messages from Aperture, whenever I am doing anything.
The Console entry usually looks like (95%)
+1/26/11 5:45:29 PM [0x0-0x495495].com.apple.Aperture[30958] Wed Jan 26 17:45:29 mymachine.local Aperture[30958] <Error>: CGBitmapContextGetBitsPerComponent: invalid context 0x13d5f68b0+
or I intermittently receive (5%)
+1/26/11 5:41:49 PM [0x0-0x495495].com.apple.Aperture[30958] This isn't a bitmap context. Forcing destination format to ARGB_8 for CGContext.+
There can be anywhere from 8 to 20 entries per second. It makes trying to update faces slow to a crawl.
I have Aperture 3.1.1.
My Aperture library is on an internal soft RAID, composed of three disks (I left the primary disk as the OS/application disk).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try System.out.println("\033[32mTest\033[0m"); If it works, google for Ansi control codes.

SUDO is causing entries in the console log. A Virus?

Hello,
I was looking through my OSX installation and I found this mysterious file placed in my Application Support Folder in my library:
username/library/application support/7103555
It is named "7103555" and it is a Unix Executable File (according to "Get Info")
I am worried it might be a virus. I don't recall putting it there. The only time I used terminal so far was to open a Profile Manager for Mozilla Thunderbird. I see that it mentions PrinterNotification and I do recall installing an HP printer driver. Is that where it might have come from. Is this normal? May I delete it? Should I reset something back in console? I am not sure what to do here.
Should I be concerned?
Thank you for any advice.
This is what it looks like when I open it:
cd /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/PrinterNotifications.bundle/Contents/MacOS
# SUDO is causing entries in the console log making me believe
# that it's not getting run correctly. I am removing SUDO from the
# command lines.
#sudo ./makequeues -u
#sudo ./makequeues -r
./makequeues -u;./makequeues -r&
exit 0

Mulder,
<<sarcasm mode on>>
You got me there: I can't even spot a simple shell script and figure out what it does and why. Nor could I explain it in plain 'Merican English to poor ol' rainforest. Nope, I must have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.
<<sarcasm mode off>>
HINT: This is well within my area of expertise.
To quote one of your compadres, who "borrowed" it from answers.com:
"computer virus n. A computer program that is designed to replicate itself by copying itself into the other programs stored in a computer. It may be benign or have a negative effect, such as causing a program to operate incorrectly or corrupting a computer's memory."
A little further on in the same page:
"Virus
Software used to infect a computer. After the virus code is written, it is buried within an existing program. Once that program is executed, the virus code is activated and attaches copies of itself to other programs in the system. Infected programs copy the virus to other programs."
and
"Viruses Must Be Run to Do Damage
A virus is not inserted into data. It is a self-contained program or code that attaches itself to an existing application in a manner that causes it to be executed when the application is run."
On to Leap-A, from the description in Macworld (edited for brevity and clarity):
"...[W]hen you try to launch the newly-infected application, an apparent bug ... in the code prevents it [the application] from launching. But, ... a lot just happened:
A Spotlight search for the most-recently-used user-owned applications is run, and ... up to four of those programs at a time are infected...
The above process will repeat each time you try to launch an infected application."
The process described above fully conforms to the definition. Therefore, your, uh, "1337" assertion is wrong: Leap-A IS a virus.
-Wayne
PS I'll even make a more radical assertion: The first OS X viruses were written in 1983 by Fred Cohen. My source? Professor Cohen (after all, he invented the computer virus), who told me, "the first viruses written for the original experiments run on current Mac OSX systems without even a recompilation."

Sharepoint 2010 Webpart debugging - Writing to the console

I am creating a SharePoint 2010 Webpart, and I'd like to write to the console for debugging purposes. Unfortunately the command Console.Writeline doesn't seem to work for me. How do I fix this??

Unfortunately, the functionality you're looking for doesn't exist. Web parts are primarily used for web applications and are built within class libraries, which have no console functionality at all. Therefore, prevents writing to the console.
Alternatively, you can use Visual Studio to debug the web part and step through the code using breakpoints. Visual Studio 2010 allows you to Debug the web part by hitting "F5".
Here's a link for some resources to help you get started developing web parts for SharePoint 2010.

Will the console log show a history of random shutdowns?

My macbook has suddenly started the random shutdown problem. It started a couple of days ago, I'd had no problems up until then. At one point today it was shutting down immediately on waking from sleep, and then would only stay on for about two minutes with the fans racing before, bang, off it would go. I left it alone in exasperation, then returned to try again, and this time it lasted around an hour before shutting down repeatedly again. I will need to take it home to the UK to my local Apple service centre and I am worried that if it doesn't actually shut down in front of them when they have it they will tell me there is no problem and won't repair it. I know that this macbook has the RSS issue now but it really is random, so can I prove it from the console log? I looked through this just now and of course most of it means nothing to me but I did notice that there was a line saying "cause of last shutdown -72" occuring many times since this started. Does anyone know what this refers to and will it show that the problem is definitely happening?

What does the holding the button down trick do?
From the Apple article I referenced in your earlier thread:
"If your MacBook is in a state where it will not remain on long enough to install the update, wait for the issue to reproduce itself. Once the MacBook has turned itself off, turn the computer on the by holding the power button down. Keep the button down until you hear a single long tone. Once you hear the tone you can release the button, install the recommended updates, and restart as you would expect."
Allegedly, this throttles the CPU to 1 GHz.
And I am slightly worried that a2dox says that the
problem returned even after the repair..!
Different experiences for different people, during the period when Apple had not yet figured out the problem. Their contract repair facility was doing different repairs, some getting heat sink replacements, some logic board replacements, some both, and, later, some a differently designed heat sink. When one of those repairs didn't fix the problem, they would do another.

Suspicious activity in the console log

I was looking at my Macbook Pro's console log and there are some suspicious items in there.
For example:
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder , IP Address changes, websites I’ve never visited, and something called x-terminal that keeps popping up on my desktop.
I have only used my Macbook for internet browsing and have never run or entered any computer codes in the console log.
Is there an explanation? Is it possible that any of the above could be run without me doing anything?

try upgrading to at least 10.4.4 of mac OS as there may be an issue with 6.0.3 running on 10.3.9...that might fix it

Reading the console logs

I am having intermittent power problems with my intel imac. Occasionally it will completely lose power and die. The Apple staff looked it over but could not find the problem. They said I should look at the console logs when it happens next time. I can open console but the first logs I see only have the most recent postings, which don't include when it died. Can someone explain to me where I can find the logs that would show what happened just before it lost power? Thanks!

try searching the console with "shutdown"

Just leaking in the console.log

I'm using iTunes 6.0.3.
Yesterday, I downloaded a video from the Music Store and watched it without a problem. About 2 hours later, I got a flood of messages like this in the console.log:
2006-02-21 19:59:14.121 iTunes[2483] * _NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x76c1b80 of class NSCFString autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking
2006-02-21 19:59:14.121 iTunes[2483] * _NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x76c1ba0 of class NSCFString autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking
At the time, iTunes was running in the background, but not playing anything. The messages stopped and after another 2 hours came another flood.
This morning. I saw what was in the console.log. clicked on iTunes, and immediately got another blast. It went on for about 5 minutes. There was over 12,000 lines of this stuff.
Anyone have any ideas about this?

Understanding the Console Log Entries

I am trying to decipher which USER_PROCESS stands for a logon. So when a user logs into the machine it is USER_PROCESS: # Console.
I just don't know which number it is. 44? 47? other?
Any help is very much appreciated.

It won't tell you much, but I think you'll get a +Login Window Started Security Agent+ message from a new loginwindow process. But it won't tell you which user logged-on.
If you're trying to monitor a particular account's usage, there's probably an app for that; I don't think you'll get much from the normal logs.
You might be able to write an Applescript or Automator to put in that user's Login items, that would update a file somewhere.
I haven't used +Parental Controls,+ but something there might do what you want.
You might find something in the +Account and Login+ section of the +Snow Leopard+ forum, either by browsing or searching.
If nobody responds to this thread for a while, you might want to repost with a title asking specifically how to do whatever it is.

"Backing Up" Before Writing to the Console

I am writing a program that uses the console for both input and output. Input comes from a seperate thread and could come at any time, even while the users is typing something.
If this happens, then whatever is written to System.out gets tagged on to the end of what the user is typing, and the System.in input is moved to a new blank line where the user can continue typing.
For example, say the users is trying to type the line "this is a test" and duirng that, the program outputs "HELLO USER". It would look like this:
this iHELLO USER
s a test
Anyone who uses the console a lot will recognize what I'm talking about.
Is there any way to fix this problem? For example, is there a way to make the console display "HELLO USER" on its own line and just move the input line down?
I hope that question makes sense. I can explain it more if I need to. Thanks!

There is no way to do it in cross-platform fashion. Just ignore it or think of using native code (ncurses library for linux, for example).

What happened to the console logs in netweaver?

Our team just upgraded to using NetWeaver version of the portal and the team that set the server up are saying console logs no longer exist?
Why would SAP get rid of System.out?
Is there a configuration change the team that set the server up needs to make to have it start logging standard out?
Stephen

Hi,
Open VIsualAdministrator (\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\j2ee\admin\go.bat)
2.Go to services->LogConfigurator
Select "Locations" tab
3. Select "ROOTLOCATION" ->System ->out and set the serverity to ALL
Now you can see Syste,.out under C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\log\defaultTrace.0.trc

WHere are the console logs in NW04 EP6?

I just installed WAS 640 Sp9 and EP6 with the latest patch and I cannot find the disp + server console logs?
Thanks

Hi all,
Sorry for the late response.
The WebAS Java 6.40 logs can be found in /usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/j2ee/cluster/server<N>/log.
The /usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/work directory contains the logs of the Startup Framework.
Best regards,

Where does the console log reside?

I am having to rewrite several scripts due to changes in Leopard.
I cannot find the location of "console.log" - any help would be appreciated.

Try man syslog. I'm not sure where to look for all the keywords, but I got this to work first time:
macbook:~ michaelc$ syslog -k Sender ntpd

Note that syslog with no arguments gives you everything

Can i see the console.log output in DW?

hey all!
this seems like such a simple question, yet i can't find an answer anywhere. everyone assumes it will be viewed in Firebug or what have you.
i'd like to be able to see the output of console.log in DW, but don't know if that's even possible, let alone which window to open to see it. i've tried them all and no such luck.
i'm running DW cs5.5, btw. and TIA.
WR!

AFAIK, there's no equivalent feature in Dreamweaver. For example, you wouldn't be able to monitor AJAX requests; you'd only be able to see the effects of them.
There might be an extension out there that does this, but I haven't seen one.
You could use Firebug Lite in the Dreamweaver Live View, though: http://getfirebug.com/firebuglite
Probably the best way to do so would be to add the JavaScript into your page (look for "Stable local link" or "Stable live link" on the above page), and then set the debug="true" attribute in your <html> tag (this part is explained on the above page). When you switch to Live View in Dreamweaver after doing so, you should see the familiar Firebug UI appear, including its console.
Since it sounds like you'd like this to be natively supported by Dreamweaver, be sure to ask our development team to add it: http://adobe.ly/DWwish

What does this message mean from the console log?

9/9/12 5:50:19 PM
com.apple.launchd[1]
(com.apple.SystemStarter) Failed to count the number of files in "/System/Library/StartupItems": No such file or directory
My computer has been really slow to respond and this message was displayed repeatedly on the log at about the time the problem started.

This seems to suggest that it could be filenames… (see the final posts).
https://discussions.apple.com/message/7818914?messageID=7818914#7818914?messageI D=7818914
Replace dashes, underscores, hyphens & any other funky looking characters. Very long filenames of folder paths may cause trouble too.
