App speed problems - development domain VS production domain.

Hi, all! I deployed my app. in two versions - one version to development mode domain and other to production mode domain.
After deployment I can see that first visits to my app. pages through my browser (and maybe other visits) ON PRODUCTION MODE DOMAIN are slower then ON DEVELOPMENT MODE DOMAIN.
Why it is so and what settings is responsible for that?
Best regards, Debuger!

It's kind of hard to say without further analysis.
One reason might be that your database in production has millions of records and in development only 100.
Or maybe the network between your production DB and production WLS is slower than in development.
Or maybe you have a weaker machine running your production environment.
etc...
There are a lot of ifs, so you need to see what are the differences between the environments.

  • Firewall problem in domain environment

    I have built two domains for testing purposes. Having deployed domain controllers, exchange servers, sccm/scom servers, sql servers along with some client computers I noticed that I had problems accessing some of servers/clients - I could not manage
    some of them directly with manage command from domain controller or access them via unc path. Some of them I could not ping neither. I was able to solve these problems by changing inbound firewall rules on these machines thus
    allowing some connections such as smb-in, dcom-in . . . In my production environment (I have been working there as system engineer for almost seven years) I have never had these problems - any domain member, whether it has been server or client, was easily
    accessible (managed from dc, unc, ping, . . .). I could deploy GPO with all necessary settings for inbound rules but it should be done automatically - as soon as machine is joined to the domain it must be accessible by using at least common protocols such as
    dcom, smb for managing or simple file copy operation. I checked my production environment again and there were no GPOs for altering default firewall settings on domain member computers so I have no idea why this is happening in my testing domains.

    No one but me has access to these machines. Also Symantec Endpoint Protection software is installed on these machines as it is the case with my production machines where everything is functioning flawlessly - as I mentioned I can access all my machines
    in production domain via computer management, smb, ping . . . One of my test domains has FFL/DFL Windows Server 2008 R2,  the same as my production domain, the other one has FFL/DFL Windows Server 2012 R2 and it is created for learning purposes. As I
    said, in both test domains, all domain computers have SEP installed - the same version and configuration as on my production machines. I have not done anything related to firewall in my test domains on problematic machines - I installed OS on them, joined
    to the domain, installed SEP and afterwards I have worked with specific product machine was created for - SCCM/SCOM, Exchange, SQL . . . servers and their clients.

  • Strange problem with Domain Values

    Dear All,
      I encounter one strange problem with Domain Fixed Values.
    Background:
       We have a custom domain ( ZXREF2) created for custom data element(ZXREF2) which has replaced standard dataelement in BSEG for field XREF2. This domain has 12 Fixed values. The idea was to have F4 help for field "Reference Key2" in FBL5N/FBL01 tcodes. It is working fine with these 12 Fixed value, means, on F4 we could see all these 12 values and when selecting a line from F4 the entry got thru the screen validation ( plz note hat this validation is like checking the mandatory value so this is done even before PAI).
    Problem:
      The requirement was to add a new line to F4 values( tecnically, 13th record in domain ZXREF2). We added this line to domain and moved to Quality system. Its working fine in both Dev and Qality, but the strange problem occured after moving and testing in Production.
      In production, we could see all 13 lines in F4 help. <b>BUT</b>, after selecting the new one( 13th one), and after the value appears on screen field, when Enter is pressed, it gives error message "Enter Valid value".
       This error message also comes when we enter any value which is not there in F4. That means, system is able to recognize the new value in F4, but falied to validate that.
      We thought that, this might be the problem with Buffer, and request Client to re-start the system. Even after system restart, it still gives the same error message.
    Please note that, the error message is triggered even before PAI of the screen called. So noway( I already tried system debugging) we can debug this error message to findout the rootcause.
    Any quick help would be highly appriciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Prasad.

    Hello Max,
      I guess DB Utility ( SE14 ) is to be run only when there is a change at structure level, to make Runtime and Database objects in sync. Here, we just added a new line to existing domain, and this added a new row to the Database table DD07T/DD07L.
      Could you please expalin it more clearly if your view is different that what I just described. 
    Prasad.

  • Strange problem with App Id on developer account

    Hi,
    I have very strange problem with App Id on developer account.
    We have uploaded one project with App Id(com.yourcompany.app) and its ready for sale now. Now we have to release update for this application but we could not find that App Id(com.yourcompany.app) on developer account. But strange is that i could not see delete option for App Id.
    If i try to create new App Id with com.yourcompany.app name then it shows that it is already being used please select any other name.
    Does anyone has faced this type of problem.
    Regards,

    You shouldn't need to enter the App Id when updating your app. Could you please describe the page in which you're asked for the App Id, and describe how you got to that page?
    For example, if I wanted to update Version 1.2 of Ray'sApp, I would log into ITC, then click on +Manage Your Applications+ to get to the "Manage Your Applications" page. On this page I see the icon for every app I have in the store. I then click on the icon for Ray'sApp 1.2 to get to the page titled "Ray'sApp". Next I click the 4th selection to the right on that page: +Update Application+, click No and Continue on the "Export Compliance" page, and get to the "Upload Application" page. On that page I fill in Version Number: 1.3, Language English, Name: Ray'sApp, Keywords ..., What's New in this Version: ..., and the Apple Content Descriptions table. Then I upload the binary.
    Following the above example, show us how you got to a step that requested the App Id. Else you might refer to Page 86: Version Updates in the iTunes Connect Developer Guide. In that case, please explain how your update experience differed from the steps in the Guide.

  • Where is the "show all" link in the new IOS 7 App Store, when viewing all apps of a developer?

    Hi,
    it seems that I found another problem with the new IOS 7. I like the program "AppTicker" which tells me about free programs. I used to open a program, then go to releated and then look at all the programs of the developer. There was one line for iPad apps and one line for iPhone apps. If the developer had many apps, there was also a link called "show all", which showed alls iPad or iPhone apps of the developer.
    Where is that link, please??
    The reason, why this link is so important: Take i.e. Disney which has a promotion and half there products are free. I went on show all and in a second bought all free programs, before installing deleted them from the iPad and they were stored in my iCloud. Even if I alread had a few programs from Disney, I saw the iCould symbol, telling me, that I already bought that program.
    Now it seems, I have to open one by one to see if I already bought the program or not. That is a major step back and if I don't find a solution a reason to go back to IOS 6, if that is possible.
    Please, any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Sorry to hear you lost that.
    In the Library dialog, there is a section for tags. You can open that using either:
    * Command+Shift+b
    * Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks
    To create something like that on your Bookmarks menu or Bookmarks toolbar, you need to create a "smart" bookmark folder. The nice feature is that it breaks out your "all tags" by the tag, so there's less scanning through the list.
    (1) Select and copy this places query:
    place:type=6&sort=1
    (2) In the Library dialog, create a new bookmark on the Bookmarks Menu or Bookmarks Toolbar. Click the relevant location, then either:
    * right-click > New Bookmark
    * Organize menu > New Bookmark
    (3) In the Name, enter a query description such as Alpha Tags
    (4) In the Location, paste the places query
    (5) Click Add.
    (6) If you get a dotted rectangle instead of a blue folder icon: drag the new bookmark to another location, e.g, a folder, the Bookmarks Toolbar, etc., within the Library dialog. This forces Firefox to recognize it as a query-type bookmark. The icon should change from the dotted rectangle to the blue search folder icon. Then you can drag it back to your preferred location.
    After that, it should work from your Bookmarks menu or Bookmarks toolbar (wherever it ended up) just like the Tags section of the Library dialog.

  • How to port database changes from development to a production environment

    How do I port database changes from the development to the production environment?
    I am using v8 and have always had to redo everything using the schema manager all over in the production environment. Is there an easy way to generate a script, for example to dump the database changes on the development machine to be executed later on the production machine?

    This should already be a clearly defined change control process. Once a procedure, function, package, trigger, or whatever completes the testing rounds, it should be promoted to production.
    Forgive me if it seems I'm trivializing, but I don't see the problem, just copy the object(s) from your software library (or development) into production using whatever tool works best or has been chosen. If you are doing data copies then you have various options again including good old export/import.

  • Windows 8.1 apps downloaded during developer preview install in Chinese on RTM (MS requsted I post this here for script to fix this)

    Hello
    Ever since updating to the RTM version of Windows 8.1 on every PC I have updated and signed into using my Microsoft account whenever I try to install any 8.1 app I installed onto the developer preview version it will always install in Chinese which makes
    using the app impossible for me.
    This happens on all PCs I have updated/used including:
    Surface RT (Windows 8.1 RT)
    Surface 2 (Windows 8.1 RT)
    Dell OptiPlex 990 (Windows 8.1 Pro)
    Dell OptiPlex 790 (Windows 8.1 Pro)
    Sony Tap 20" (Windows 8.1 Pro)
    The language settings of the Microsoft store and all the computers are all set to UK English and as soon as I do a fresh install of the UK version of Windows 8.1 and sign into my Microsoft account then certain apps will always install in Chinese (when in
    the store it says you already own this app and can install it on this PC - when I do it is in Chinese. When the app has not been installed before or was not installed when I had the developer preview then it will install in English).
    This has been driving me mad for months and I previously posted this question back in October in the Office 2013 forums as I first noticed the issue with the OneNote app but it was never resolved:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/448670ae-4494-4a55-8cee-d9f1c9873db7/onenote-windows-81-app-changed-to-chinese-and-cannot-work-out-how-to-change-to-english?forum=officeitpro#448670ae-4494-4a55-8cee-d9f1c9873db7
    I then posted it a few days ago here:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_store/windows-81-apps-downloaded-during-developer/5dcd0df7-edfe-420e-8737-6a48922969e1
    I have now been asked by a Microsoft Support engineer to post the question here as they said a script can be provided which I can use to fix this.
    I think I just need to clear the fact that I have previously installed these apps as maybe some bug in the developer preview set them to Chinese and it seems to remember this setting. I cannot understand any Chinese so this makes these apps unusable.
    The only other option I can think of is to create a new Microsoft account but I would rather not have to do this.
    Some of the apps affected include the OneNote app and the HP scanner app. I have uninstalled most others and found alternatives.
    Thanks

    Hello jrv
    I managed to run the script but cannot really see how it is any different to uninstalling the apps in the normal way except for the fact that you can uninstall multiple apps at once.
    This exact same problem happens on a surface 1, a surface 2 and multiple machines running either Pro or Enterprise. It is not one machine but every machine running 8.1.
    I have not upgraded from the Developer Preview version on any of my machines and always do a fresh install but what I am saying is that I did use the same Microsoft account during that time and it seems to have some record of the apps I installed at that
    time and thinks I want them installed now in Chinese.
    The only thing in common on the 7 machines I have tried (including the 2 surfaces) is that I have joined them to my Microsoft account and the problem seems to be with the Microsoft account and not with all the machines.
    To replicate this I can go to any Windows 8.1 machine and join it to my Microsoft account and this will put certain apps from the store into Chinese and I can find no way to stop this. I am pretty confident that the issue is with the Microsoft account or
    a setting that is synchronising from there.
    The workaround is to sign into a different Microsoft account and this installs them correctly on the same machine.
    I would appreciate any help with clearing out my history of installed apps without having to create a new Microsoft account.
    Thanks

  • SharePoint 365 Deploy App -- "another App with the same version and product ID."

    2>  Skipping the uninstall step because the app for SharePoint is not installed on the server.

    If the App exist why it doesn't uninstall it. And also its not possible to Retract:
    Skipping the uninstall step because the app for SharePoint is not installed on the server.
    I solved my problem by changing ProductID manually but I don't want to make the server with dirty small apps.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Check the Site URL in project properties to which the app is installed.
    You have to choose the right path first where the app is installed and then Build>Retract.
    Then change the path to new one and try build. It looks like you are trying to retract from wrong Site URL.
    Thanks

  • HT1933 App Purchase problem

    I bought an app through iTunes and need to report a problem with it.  I follow the instructions and when I get to the point of reporting a problem where it should take me to the "Report a Prolem" button, it doesn't exist and I get routed back to the iTunes Support page with no way of reporting the problem.  Help!
    Gary

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    If you have a problem with an app that the developer can't/won't help you with then you will need to contact iTunes Support, either as described on the page that you posted from, or via the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem

  • Java Audio Metronome | Timing and Speed Problems

    Hi all,
    I’m starting to work on a music/metronome application in Java and I’m running into some problems with the timing and speed.
    For testing purposes I’m trying to play two sine wave tones at the same time at regular intervals, but instead they play in sync for a few beats and then slightly out of sync for a few beats and then back in sync again for a few beats.
    From researching good metronome programming, I found that Thread.sleep() is horrible for timing, so I completely avoided that and went with checking System.nanoTime() to determine when the sounds should play.
    I’m using AudioSystem’s SourceDataLine for my audio player and I’m using a thread for each tone that constantly polls System.nanoTime() in order to determine when the sound should play. I create a new SourceDataLine and delete the previous one each time a sound plays, because the volume fluctuates if I leave the line open and keep playing sounds on the same line. I create the player before polling nanoTime() so that the player is already created and all it has to do is play the sound when it is time.
    In theory this seemed like a good method for getting each sound to play on time, but it’s not working correctly.
    At the moment this is just a simple test in Java, but my goal is to create my app on mobile devices (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, etc)...however my current method isn’t even keeping perfect time on a PC, so I’m worried that certain mobile devices with limited resources will have even more timing problems. I will also be adding more sounds to it to create more complex rhythms, so it needs to be able to handle multiple sounds going simultaneously without sounds lagging.
    Another problem I’m having is that the max tempo is controlled by the length of the tone since the tones don’t overlap each other. I tried adding additional threads so that every tone that played would get its own thread...but that really screwed up the timing, so I took it out. I would like to have a way to overlap the previous sound to allow for much higher tempos.
    I posted this question on StackOverflow where I got one reply and my response back explains why I went this direction instead of preloading a larger buffer (which is what they recommended). In short, I did try the buffer method first, but I want to also update a “beat counter” visual display and there was no way to know when the hardware was actually playing the sounds from the buffer. I mentioned that on StackOverflow and I also asked a couple more questions regarding the buffer method, but I haven’t received any more responses.

  • Kindle app sync problem

    For the last month or so, I have been unable to sync my Kindle with the iPhone app. I have had several unsuccessful and long sessions with Amazon support which involved lots of hoops including deleting and reinstalling the app, resetting the Kindle, etc. As we left it several weeks ago, the Amazon rep was to refer the case to their engineers. I am still waiting for a response.
    This problem developed about the time of an update to the app (July 2), so I suspect there may be some bug in the update although I was told that my problem is "islolated." I would be interested to know if anyone here is now having this problem and when it may have started. I would also be interested to know if anyone is not having this problem

    Mine are not.
    I can do everything that I want to on each platform but cant sync them up.
    Bookmarks are (is) the thing that I notice most often. Normally, I add one on the iPad and there it is on the Kindle when I pick it up; now its not there. When I hit sync, it tyys to then I get the "sync failed" alert. I can live with it, but it is bugging me.

    While my iPhone was on os 4.0, everything worked perfectly, I was getting 5 bars of service almost anywhere I was, and the 3g data was almost always fast (about 99% of the time it worked without an issue). On rare occasions my signal strength would dip to 4 bars, but that was the worst of it.
    I then upgraded to ios 4.0.2, and things have been downhill from there. My 3g speeds are generally terrible now, I usually get 1 or 2 bars, occasionally I will get 3 bars, and only once have I seen 4 bars. Needless to say, I can't really get online with much reliability anymore.
    I then noticed an update and upgraded to 4.1, things are even worse now. My geocaching app refuses to connect to the gps, it just hangs, and I am frequently missing phone calls (phone doesn't even ring, I just get a text telling me I missed a call). Battery life is all over the map now as well, some nights I will go to bed with battery at 100%, and when I get up it is at 88%, other times it has completely drained.
    I contacted Apple, they told me about the problem where the signal strength wasn't being reported properly, and now I am just seeing what my true signal strength is. I don't buy that at all, because if that is the case, then if my phone was showing 5 bars, and I was actually only getting 2 bars, I was still able to get really fast speeds, now that it is "correctly" showing 2 bars, I am getting terrible reception. Apple support suggested I contact an apple store and book an appointment.
    Went to apple store, met with the genius bar guy, he was really helpful, he thought it might be my sim card, so he gave me a new sim card, and then he decided he might as well give me a new phone in case it was the device, new phone came with os 4.0.2, so the only thing that really fixed was the geocaching app, but to get all of my contacts back, I had to restore from a backup, and I am back at 4.1, and no data speed.
    I contacted my cell carrier, and they can't figure it out either (one of the reps even told me to jailbreak my phone so I could downgrade to an earlier os).
    My mother in law has an ipad, on the same carrier, and she lives way out in the middle of the countryside. She gets 5 bars at her house, I get no service.
    Just wondering what people think is the issue, is it phone + os, or is it network?
    My thought is that it is the new os, my wife has the same phone with os 4.0, but on a different carrier, and she always gets 5 bars of strength.
    Thanks

    Hi mlethbridge
    to clarify, I am not interested in jailbreaking the phone at all, I was just shocked that a customer service rep actually suggested I do that.
    Yes you have to wonder sometimes
    When I first contacted apple customer support, they told me to try restoring from a backup, did that but no change, then I restored to a new state, but I was still getting the 3g speed problems.
    When I received the new phone from apple, I did check the data speed, and it was still slow.
    So was it just slow or so slow that it was timing out before it would load anything?
    The geocaching app problem has been solved, I don't know why, but when I checked in Location Services, geocaching was turned off, that was a real simple fix (boy I feel like an idiot on that one), but that obviously didn't help the 3g speed.
    Yes, I wish sometimes all things were that easy to fix.
    As for the contacts, I always just kept them on my phone, count that as a lesson learned, they have all been synced over to my computer now.
    Good to hear, I would hate to see a post saying 'all contacts lost how do I get them back?'
    I personally treat my phone a portable storage device and never have anything on it that I cannot afford to loose.
    The point I was making with the iPad comparison is that my mother in law and I should be getting almost identical speeds (I am aware that the antenna might be a bit different in the iPad, but it shouldn't make that much of a difference), so I am not sure if it is just the way my cell network interacts with the new firmware, or if it is just the new firmware itself (if that makes sense?)
    I know what you mean, I'm not sure of the specs of the ipad v 3GS, but yes I would expect them to be reasonably similar.
    I did a bit more testing today, and went for quite a drive out to my brothers, the closest cell tower to him is about 5kms away (from my house it is about 1 km), and I was actually getting 4 and 5 bars out there, and the data speed was pretty good (not as good as I was used to, but it was a speed I could live with), but back at my house, I am getting only 1 bar again.
    On the surface of things, it sounds like its working as it should, all be it a bit slow maybe.
    I am really waffling as to which is at fault, is it the firmware or my cell network.
    I was recently discussing a roughly similar issue with another user where his connection on 3G was timing out Unfortunately we could not determine if it was firmware or carrier in the end, his problem just evaporated and his data just suddenly came good, which was great for him, but a bit frustrating for everyone as the cause was never found.
    In that case everything was attempted. You can read about here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2570292 if you are interested.
    Try a few things;
    Make sure that you have the latest carrier setting file. It is possible that with the new 4.1 firmware, this file also requires updating. I know my carrier updated their's (Telstra Australia) after the upgrade.
    This should be an automatic thing, but it doesn't hurt to check. Connect your phone to iTunes and check for updates. If there is a carrier update available you will prompted to download it. Alternately, in the iphone go to Settings > General > About and if there is an update available, you will be prompted to downloading.
    I think that you want to determine is just what speed are you getting.
    My first step would to download a speed checker app, I use Speedtest.net app, but any free tester will do and use it to test your download and upload speeds. Compare this with different locations within your house and also where you are showing a much stronger signal. You will probably find that it varies a bit depending on your location.
    See if you can compare it with another iphone on the same firmware, same network, same location, or compare it with the ipad, but I think it would be better with another iphone.
    What happens if you turn off 3G and access only by Edge, speeds will drop because Edge is slower, but by how much? And WIFI, what is data like on it?
    What happens if you restore to 'new' and just sync the speed tester app. Does that resolve anything? This will determine if something else in the background is causing the issue.
    On that though, what other apps do you have running at the same time that could cause a slowdown? Mail? Facebook? Streaming Music? If multiple apps are running that require internet connection and then you open Safari to browse all the apps share the connection speed between them, so it could appear that the internet connection is slow.
    Hope this helps a little

  • How I resolved my Apple TV download speed problems

    I have been experiencing download speed problems with my Apple TV2 for a while. The performance was so bad that I couldn't buy or rent movies from Apple TV, because it would take hours to even start the download. I wasn't sure if the problem was with my ISP (Comcast), the modem, or the wireless router.
    I just logged in to my wireless router (Cisco Linksys E300) and changed the following two settings:
    Network Mode = Wireless-N Only
    Channel Width = 20 Mhz Only
    After restarting my Apple TV2, movie streaming is now perfect. It took less than one minute to start the streaming of a recently purchased movie.
    I recalled reading some time ago that a Network Mode which allows switching between B, G and N wireless modes can cause problems with streaming. Perhaps each time switching occurs, the Apple TV has to renegotiate with the iTunes Store. I'm not sure that the "Channel Width" setting is necessary or relevant, but since I'm happily streaming again, I don't really care.
    I hope that this helps others resolve this problem.

    If you have home sharing enabled on the Apple TV and an IOS running on the same network you can use the remote app. Otherwise, you will need to purchase a new remote.
