Applescript Event Alarm Timeout Problem

I made a simple applescript that performs a folder backup... it runs fine by itself but takes more than a few minutes... when triggered from iCal alarm : run applescript.... it starts ok but after a few minutes before the backup app is finished I get this error:
An Applescript event alarm did not execute properly.
...the script xxx.scrpt .... did not open or finish
All is fine with a few megs but fails with larger content...
How Do I get this iCal timeout to stop?
on tiger 10.4.11

Hi Austin,
I did get it working with an app called cronnix - so thanks for the suggestion.
Is there some sort of GUI for launchd?
Also - with timeout of 600 seconds line below worked great
with timeout of 600 seconds
tell application "Transmit"
----code here
end tell
end timeout

  • Missing event alarms

    When I have alarms for two different events set to go off at the same time I get only one alarm. After the first alarm goes off, I slide to view the event and that's it. There is no indication from calendar that there is another alarm for another event. Is there a way to get alarms for both events either simultaneously or one after the other?
    Thank you.

    You didn't attach the Alarm & timeout query.vi, so we cannot see what it does, but it's safe to assume that's where the problem is.

    Actually the OP is using some tool-kits that are not part of the base package.  It open OK for me
    @ OP
    What are you trying to do?  there is no use of the data in the listbox, no use of the output data of the DB Querey, the event struncture with a 250mS timeout AND the 0.1 sec delay is just poor practice (And why not just add a Stop button?  what do you want the vi to do? I just can't tell since it is so disconnected (and  Documantation would be a good habit to learn)

  • How do I set the default event alarm to email in iCal 3.0?

    Anyone know? The default event alarm (an alert with a noise) in iCal 3.0 doesn't do me the slightest bit of good if I'm not sitting at my computer, which I'm often not.
    I'd like all new events to have a default alarm of "Email" so I get email reminders without having to edit every single new event I create. Frankly I'm amazed this isn't a simple Preference option

    Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes. I have scoured the internet looking for exactly the same answer! I've asked everyone at my office (all mac users) and no one knows (but I got several "Yeah, that's annoying - let me know when you figure it out). I, too, can't believe it's not a simple preference in iCal. Someone PLEASE answer this incredibly basic question because there are obviously more than a few of us hung up on this. Thanks!

    Problem Description= NSAPI - WL
    OP = Solaris 2.6
    Hi,
    In my product, I have an operation where I upload files to my website.
    When I am uploading smaller size files I am not facing any problem. But when
    I upload large size files (eg 10 MB) it is happening multiple times. I did
    not face this problem on Windows NT. Only on Solaris I am experiencing this.
    So we wrote a simple servlet to find out what is exactly happening. I am
    getting timeout. I connect to WebLogic Server through Netscape Web Server
    which is running on another Solaris. I tried to increase the connection
    timeout in Netscape Server. It did not provide any results to me. When I
    checked the logs on NSAPI, it is connecting to WL properly, the problem is
    from WebLogic. Apart from the Session Timeout in Deployment Descriptor is
    there any where that weblogic has a timeout settings. I want to know about
    this in detail. It is very very urgent.
    Here is the way my bean works, it reads the file from disk and copy it
    to temporary location and then do the upload. When it started reading, it is
    fine and then when it is uploading, it is getting timeout so, it started
    reading the file again, it is happening till it gets out of space error.
    Please let me know what is the solution, as immediately as possible. I
    would really really appreciate your help.
    Thanks in advance

    What service pack you are using? If you are using 451 SP8 or recent then it has
    a new
    plugin parameter called - "HungServerRecoverSecs". Here are the details:
    HungServerRecoverSecs 10:300:600 for (min:default:max)
    You should set this to a very large value. If it is less than the time the
    servlets take
    to process, then you will see unexpected results. This implementation takes care
    of the
    hung or unresponsive servers in the cluster. So the plugin waits for
    HungServerRecoverSecs for the the server to respond and then declares that
    server dead
    and fails over to the next server.
    Maybe this is what you are seeing. If the value is too low it will failover and
    the POST will
    happen multiple times.
    Let us know if this problem persists.

    What is the latency (measured via ping) between the App and SQL Server? SharePoint 2010 RTM hasn't been supported for quite some time. Upgrade to SP2 and see if it resolves the issue.

    An error occurred while executing an AppleScript event handler.

  • OW4J Notification Timeout problem

    Hi!
    I made an implementation of ow4j for a timesheet management application. I implemented a custom notification activity which use Apache Velocity for message generation. I re implement the notification process to use the POP3 for reply. Everything works fine for me but with a important exception: The timeout property for the notification which seems to me there is no implementation in engine. The example for OW4J work with the same exception - no timeout.
    Is my first workflow experience and I'm disappointed. Dou you have any solution for timeout problem? I tried with the WAIT activity which not works because is implemented only in PLSQL
    BR,
    Bogdan Craciun

    Hi !
    I made all the setup stuff but the problem is with the workflow engine. I decompiled the engine and the part with timeout in the workflow definition ( . wft file)loader is skiped. In the JavaEngine the Timeout transition is not treated. There is no background process which monitor the ProcessActivities which are blocked and waiting for replay.
    The method getTimeoutValue is never called in the engine. I think there is no implementation fot timeout functionality at this time. The same problem is with Wait Function. In the Java Standard functions from the ow4j demo the call is made to a PLSQL block not to a Java object method.
    Correct me if I'm wrong.
    BR,

  • IView Timeout problems...

    Hello,
    We're having an iView timeout problem on one of our EP (7) app servers.
    (For some reason it only happens on one of them - the others, which use the same iView, don't have this problem):
    The message is:
    The iView has timed out. There is no cached content to display. Click 'Reload' to retrieve updated content. You may need to wait for the cache to retrieve the content from the source.  Reload
    Of course the Reload doens't work, but is fixed in SPS14 apparently - we're running SPS13 at the moment.
    There are actually 2 iViews that reside on a page, and I've tried adjusting the page timeout to -1, with no results. Only thing we've been able to do so far is restart that one app server, and it seems to remedy the problem...temporarily.
    Anyone else have any ideas as to what might be causing this iView to timeout on only one app server and not other others? I'm a bit stumped here as to what to do.
    Thanks!
    Edited by: Beau Bourgeois on Mar 17, 2008 11:21 PM

    Hi,
    Please check on the parameters for (right click IView properties --Show All)
    1. iViewCaching ..
    2.The Timeout.
    Please do set them asper requirement.
    This will work and you will be able to control the iViewtime outs.
    Also lookout for your Page Timeout Property.

  • Inexplainable Timeout Problem

    Hello Everybody,
    I am currently developing a Java Webservice for Netweaver 7.11. The web service should trigger the execution of a jar file which is locally available at the server on which the web service is deployed.
    The process which is locally executed needs about 60s to be finished.
    But when trying to start this process via a web service I get the following message:
    Invalid transport binding settings.Read timed out
    But this message still appears if I set the timeout settings to a value of 900s, which is definately long enough.
    I would be really thankful if somebody has an idea, where the problem is located and how to solve it.
    Kind Regards,
    Carl Heckmann

    Hi Gouray,
    Thanks for your reply. I assume, that I configured it correctly, since I exposed 2 web services with this EJB, and the other one is running just fine.
    The code of the EJB can be found below. The Service startDataCollectionProcess does not work, due to the timeout problem. The other service, isSystemOnlineCheck works without any problems.:
    package com.sap.nwdemo.sidct.services;
    @WebService(name = "SIDCTServicesBean", portName = "SIDCTServicesBeanPort", serviceName = "SIDCTServicesBeanService", targetNamespace = "http://sap.com/nwdemo/sidct/services/")
    @Stateless
    public class SIDCTServicesBean {
          * Starts the data collection process COuld be also started using the
          * console
         @WebMethod
         public Long startDataCollectionProcess() {
              SIDCT sidct = new SIDCT();
              Long duration = sidct.gatherData();
              return duration;
         @WebMethod
         @WebResult(name = "isOnline")
         public boolean isSystemOnlineCheck(@WebParam(name = "SID")
         String sid, @WebParam(name = "InstanceNumber")
         String systemNumber, @WebParam(name = "NetworkID")
         int nwguid) {
    I hope this is enough information for you to tell me if the service is configured properly or not.

  • AppleScript Ignoring "with timeout" Command

    Mac OS 10.4.11
    AppleScript 1.10.7
    Hi all. I'm experimenting with the idea of using my screensaver as my Desktop Background. In order to continue using a script in the macosxhints site that locks the screen via the keychain menubar item (so I'm not forced to have it require a password when it normally accesses the screensaver), I need to modify it so that it turns the said feature off and displays a dialog enabling me to turn it back on when I return.
    Here's the problem: By the time I do return, the script times out on me, preventing me from accessing its dialog. I've applied the "with timeout" command, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the script at all. Even a "with timeout of 1 second" command does not change its behavior from the default timeout time. Any help here? Here's what I've been able to come up with thus far:
    with timeout of 86400 seconds
    tell application "System Events"
    if process "ScreenSaverEngine" exists then tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to quit
    end tell
    activate application "SystemUIServer"
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "SystemUIServer"
    repeat with i from 1 to number of menu bar items of menu bar 1
    tell menu bar item i of menu bar 1
    click
    try
    if name of menu item 1 of front menu is "Lock Screen" then
    click menu item "Lock Screen" of front menu
    exit repeat
    end if
    end try
    end tell
    end repeat
    end tell
    end tell
    display dialog "Select the desktop background type:" buttons {"Normal", "ScreenSaver"} default button 2
    if button returned of result = "ScreenSaver" then
    do shell script "/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/ScreenSaverEngine.a pp/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
    else
    tell application "System Events"
    if process "ScreenSaverEngine" exists then tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to quit
    end tell
    end if
    end timeout
    Thanks in advanced!

  • Failed to query Alarms & Events, alarms not logging

    Hi all,
    I've recently run in to an issue with the DSC Alarm & Event logging. I have a number of shared variable libraries all setup to log both data and alarms to Citadel. I've double checked that the library itself is configured for logging data and alarms, as well as all the variables. Using the DSM, I can see all of the active alarms in the system across all libraries, and can receive all alarm change events programmatically.
    For some reason, alarms for only one of the libraries are logging, and attempting to query the historical Alarms & Events through MAX throws an error roughly 14 out of 15 times (with no error code or indication of why it fails). I've also attempted to archive the Citadel database, with it failing with an unspecified error (presumably when archiving the alarms side of things, the data archive seemed to work).
    Can anyone offer some insight on how to resolve the problem, preferably without data loss? Further, how can I prevent the issue in future?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for your reply Joey.
    Libraries are being deployed using the DSC Deploy Libraries VI. The libraries also have data and alarm logging enabled programmatically. At the moment they're both being logged to the same database.
    I can't find the "Read Historical Trend.vi" through the DSC Examples. The article was written in 2005 and I'm using DSC 2012 SP1, so I don't know if things have changed since then. I can view the data through MAX without issue if that's any consolation.
    The mdf file is about 60MB, with the entire Citadel database at around 6GB.
    The Citadel service is definitely running. I've also attempted restarting it (and the PC itself) but the issue is still present.
    It's entirely possible there was a power failure, as this has been during a period of plant commissioning. When I can query the alarms through MAX there's a lot of data up to a certain point (end July), then it's very sporadic after that with only certain variable's alarms being logged.
    I attempted another database archive and this time it managed to get all the way through, though the archived database also has the same problems querying alarms and events. So at this point I suspect the mdf/mds files are corrupt in some way.
    Using the DSM, I've tried manually pointing the libraries to log alarms to a newly created database but this doesn't seem to work. No alarms or events are logged to the new database, and checking the library properties shows that the alarm database which I configured the library to log to had reverted to the original database. Am I missing something obvious here? Do I need to pre-create some traces in the new database before alarms and events will get logged there?
    Given I have managed to make a 'good' archive of the database, I'd like to try just deleting the alarms and events portion of the database and start clean. Is there a correct way to do this? I did find this article, but am unsure if this will work with a potentially corrupted database: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9D3A81218264C68686256DE1005D794F If I stop all of the Citadel and SQLServer related services, can I simply delete the mdf/mds files?

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure and no new events / alarms since update to 2.2.1

    Hello,
    I have upgraded our Cisco Prime Infrastructure from version 2.1 to 2.2.1 (with a backup and restore). We have round about 700 APs and three 5208 Controller. So far everything seems to work really fine. The only problem is that there are no new alarms/events under "Monitor", "Alarms and Events".
    The last entries (events and alarms) are dated before the upgrade. Other informations (like client counts for example) are correct.
    Is there a known bug related to my problem? Can anybody help?
    Thanks

    I have done some research:
    I see the following problems in the log-package (downloaded from Prime):

    I think that there is a problem with a too small tablespace. But I can´t fix that. Anybody? ;)

  • Certain iCal Event Alarms Not Working on iPhone

    I have certain calendar event reminders that are not issuing on the iPhone (3GS, latest iOS 4.3.5) after syncing from iCal on the desktop with a CalDAV calendar running on Mac OS X 10.6 Server.
    Most appointments do issue alerts properly, but I've noticed ones that have some or all of the following attributes are a problem:
    1 - recurring on alternating weeks
    2 - alarm set for day before the event (e.g. 7pm the night before or "5 hours before all-day event" as calendar sees it)
    3 - alarms that do not conform to the short list of pre-set iPhone calendar alarms (5 min, 10 min, 15 min,... 2 hours before, 12 hours before)
    I have a feeling it's #3 or a combination of all. I've tried deleting and re-adding the calendar on the iPhone. I've also verified that the time zones match between phone and desktop iCal. In my case, the alarm never happens for these specific events, not that it happens much later or something.
    Anyone experience this issue?
    Thanks

    why so many views of this question and nobody had replied with an answer?

  • Pinting to file Events & Alarms with Lookout

    I have a weird problem.
    In one of the computers, running the same application, with identical lookout.ini file, and same alarm settings, the events can not be printed to file C:\data\events.csv. There is a message coming up saying that the file can not be created. I created the C:\data folder manually, then the computer prints the events.csv file, but it is empty. There is a Spreadsheet object saving in C:\data\'Machine'\'Year'\'Month'\'Day'\Data.csv with a sampling rate of 1 per minute. This database works well for both computers. The empty event.csv file of the second computer when is going to be open with notepad or excel, there is a message saying that another user/program is using this file, it is only allow to have a read only copy. The first computer works just fine.
    The windows User Account has full admin rights. I have check everywhere, every single detail, but I can not have the second computer to print the events to a file properly.
    Attached there is a very simple application for testing. This application does not work in the second PC.
    The Lookout version is 6.0.2.
    What I did miss?

    Under Columns: Object, User, Description, Ack User, and Comment
    Print to CSV file is checked
    In the journal Field: C:\Data\Events.csv
