Archlinux update ruined my day

Today I did an upgrade of one of our webservers using pacman. Everything was ok until it upgraded OpenSSH, after doing this, I lost connection to this server, which I have a hundred kilometers far away. I lost almost all the day because of this.
The upgrade went all fine, but you guys couldnt program the damn ssh daemon to be restarted after the OpenSSH upgrade.
*Please*, this is the kind of problems that cannot happen. A warning at least would be fine. Please, Arch developers, be more careful; some of us have faith in archlinux and use it in small servers environments.

exactly.. the description of "i upgraded and it didn't restart" just doesn't make any sense.. it shouldn't just automagically restart, a program can keep running for decades even when it's being removed or replaced by a newer version. if you want to start the new version you can just type "/etc/rc.d/ssh restart" (and if that stops the current daemon but fails to start the new one, then you might have a little problem )
On a sidenote, i agree with mucknert

IOS 6 Update ruined my 4s.

I bought my iphone 4s on December 25th 2011. It worked perfectly, I absolutely love my phone.
Although, ever since I downloaded the IOS6 Update, it has been glitching, crashing, and I've had to reboot it about 5X a day.
It's not fair.. I payed 700$ for my phone, it should work.
I don't have a lot of memory used on my phone so its not over loaded. Cookies are deleted and everything.
I've had my mac for two years and it works great and no update ruined it. I don't know why this is happening!?
I have a warranty with Best Buy here that i pay 12.99 a month for, but I'm not sure if that would be enough for them to see if I tell them that its been glitching.
I don't even care if I get the Iphone 5, I just want my phone to work properly !
Any tips or suggestions ? Thank you !

As bhazel suggests. I've had Macs for 28 years and no update ruined any of them.

If the iPhone was hacked and unlocked via unofficial means, it has become locked again. Insert original SIM in the phone to activate with iTunes.

How do I update just the day of a date value?

Example:
Table: FC_GQ_SOURCE_ANALYSIS
Sample_type = C
Effective_date = null
Sample_date = 20/13/07/14 09:00:00
What needs to happen is for any sample analysis that has a sample_type of "C" we need the effective date to be the first of the month for whatever month the sample date is and keep the time as it is…
so in the example data the effective date should be 2013/07/01 09:00:00.
How would I update just the day part of that date string?

Hi,
You don't need to convert to a string and back again to do that. Use TRUNC to get the right day, and date arithmetic to get the right time, like this:
UPDATE fc_gq_source_analysis
SET     effective_date = TRUNC (sample_date, 'MONTH')
                             + (sample_date - TRUNC (sample_date))
WHERE   sample_type = 'C'
TRUNC (sample_date, 'MONTH')        is midnight on the 1st of the month that you want.
sample_date - TRUNC (sample_date)   is the time that you want, expressed as a number of days (e.g., 9/24 of a day).

When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported no installed apps. In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run

When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported I had no installed apps.
In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run.
How do I get CC to find apps installed under the previous version?
And how do I get Lightroom CC to run?
Peter

I still don't know how to get CC to find that I have Photoshop CC installed, but running Creative Cloud, going to Preferences and signing out, then signing in again got Lightroom CC to work.
Since Photoshop CC is still working despite apparently not being installed things are now OK, at least for the moment. But I'm not feeling at all happy with Adobe.

Disable your firewall and antivirus while you download.

Wifi performance abysmal since update a few days ago...

Hi all,
Is anyone else having this issue? Since my phone updated a few days ago with the HD calling stuff (VoLTE?) my wifi performance has gone right in the toilet. Performance before the update was terrific but now it's so bad that many apps don't work at all.
If I turn off wifi and use 4G everything is fine.
I'm wondering if this update did something to cause this.
Any info greatly appreciated.

Inbox on my ipad hasn't updated for two days

HI
the inbox in my ipad Yahoo mail account has not updated for two days, it keeps continually checking for mail but nothing comes in! It is working fine on my iPhone! I'm not terribly technically minded so just wondered if anyone had any ideas??
thanks
LIndy

Try deleting the account and readding it. Yahoo is doing things to their servers and it mucks up your mail app. Sometimes it resolves on its own, other times you can fix it by deleting and readding.

My Mail has frozen - can access my hotmail through Safari but Mail now has a blank rectangle on the screen and the inbox underneath it has not updated for 2 days

Mail giving problems. Small white rectangular box comes up on screen and inbox underneath has not updated for 2 days.
I can use Safari to get new messages but, since getting this laptop, when I go to Hotmail via Safari old messages self delete every so often, whereas via Mail messages stay in the inbox unless I actually delete them. Any suggestions?

Here is a photo of what I see when I tap on the mail icon to open it. It stays there for a second or two and then goes dark. Then I actually have to put my iPad into sleep mode in order to use it again. The app will NOT close no matter what I do, just shutting it down or put it in sleep and then restart it.
here is when I tap the mail icon. It looks like an empty page but you will see the format of the mail page. Next photo is what is see after a second. And the last photo is what I see before the iPad locks up or Les blank. I hope this makes things clearer as to what the problem is. Thanks for your help, hope this helps! Diane May.

Did OS update ruin my iPod Touch?

Since updating the OS on his iPodTouch last night, the iPod is no longer recognized by any computer and only shows the screen showing it needs to be plugged into iTunes. I did that but iTunes and my PC never recognized that the iPod was plugged in. Did the update ruin my iPod???? Does Apple repair/replace in these instances?

Hello,
I`m sorry to hear that your Ipod has been wrecked and needs to be plugged into Itunes. I will try my best to help with your problem!
Try the following things:
-Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 sec. or until Apple Logo appears
-Did you try connecting it to a different computer? Maybe the computer doesnt recognize it, but maybe another computer might?
-Restart the computer. Sometimes this happens to me, it says plug it into Itunes, and then I do, but it pops up an error message. I just restart the computer, then it works again.
Hope that helps!
If the above things do not work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution.
Thanks,
Pizza98704
P.S. I updated my Ipod Touch, 4th generation to IOS 6.0.1 on Wednesday January 30th,2013.
No problems have happened yet, since the update.

Imovie '08 update ruined my movie (i think)!!!

I just recently updated imovie '08 and before I had done so my videos looked fine on imovie, Quicktime, and on YouTube. As soon as I started imovie up again, the footage in my movies are pixilated, rasterized... they just look awful! I think the update ruined my movie because previous movies I've uploaded to YouTube using imovie '08 look fine! I've tried re-importing the footage into imovie again and posting it on YouTube but it still looks like a wreck. But when I open the footage files in Quicktime, everything looks ok. Is there a way this can be fixed so that I can edit my movies on imovie '08? If not how do i undo the update?

I have problems with both the sound and visuals in the viewer. Pressing the space bar on thumbnails in my project library sometimes plays them in the viewer but either with sound from a different project (bizarre) and/or horribly pixelated, unrecognisable images. The bottom line is that I can't use iMovie 08 either for new projects or old ones. I like the application, despite the criticisms leveled at it, and have been recommending it to friends and colleagues. Alas, my faith has not been rewarded by Apple. If anyone knows how to fix this, I'd appreciate some help.

Why the Flash Player updates almost every day?

Why does the Flash Player update almost every day?

You think these are the only/main cause of security issues?
As a developer let me tell you it is far from the case. Most security issues are a direct result of user carelesness.
Let me give you an example....
I'm just a loley ole developer, no one special, but I do create many web apps/mobile apps, and many are free, and widely distributed.
One example is a social networking web app based on html5 and google maps api - a gps enabled social web app.
trufaces.com
This is just one example of hundreds, I offer free hosting services truimagz.com/host and mush more.
Anyway, the point is... do you have any idea how many people sign up using an email adress and their actuall email password as their login info?
90%+
I, just some schmuck, have access to over 50,000 email accounts and passwords at any given moment. Thank god I'm trustworthy eh?
Just food for thought.

A serious error has occurred or how the 7.1 update ruined my life.

Ever since the 7.1 update to Premiere, I've had nothing but problems. The desktop app fails to update for every update, and appears to think it's out of date when it's not and then the icon in the menu bar will be grayed out until I reboot 3-4 times. The "workaround for that seems to be to force quit and uninstall the "previous" version and then download the "new" version from the creative cloud web portal. This wouldn't be that large of an issue, but it happens almost every other day.
Then once I can actually open Premiere, the real fun with errors begins. I have received the "A Serious Error has occurred" screen on 30-40 (not exagerating) delightful occasions in the past couple of weeks, with no real details of what is actually wrong. It usually occurs while trying to fix an issue where my multi-clips aren't showing the audio waveforms in the sequence, but it has happened plenty of other mysterious ways. This is even more complicated, because it's happening on multiple systems and one of them isn't even using the 7.1 update and another is offsite and using different hardware. The same annoying error occurs across them all.
Another super cool "feature" is that Mercury Playback Engine capabilities come and go as they please. Sometimes they work for Premiere or Media Encoder or After Effects, but sometimes they just pick one for that given day and don't let the other apps playback. All of the systems GPU were working just fine in 7.0.1, but now wtf Adobe?
My system specs are varied, but the general idea is this:
Mac Pro systems (4,1-5,1) 2.3GHz - 2.93GHz
16-24GB RAM
Nvidia QuadroFX 4800, Nvidia QuadroFX 4000, Nvidia GeForce 9800
OS X 10.7.4 and 10.7.5
A few of the systems have AJA Kona 3 and Kona 3G
Most of the media is being accessed across 10gigE to a ProMax Platform, and the project files are local on SSD's.
I have the bug report from Apple, so if that helps let me know so I can get that info to someone who cares.

Hi Kevin,
I'm still planning on attempting the 10.8.5 install on one of the affected systems. In the process, I have uncovered a new issue related to the CUDA acceleration not being there at all on a system that used to have it. That particular Mac Pro system only has a GeForce GT120, but the point is that in CS6 and CC, the CUDA was working until this latest update. The other systems have QuadroFX 4000 and 4800 cards, so those seem to be getting CUDA playback, however it is intermittent.
As for the OS X 10.7.4 not allowing me to install 7.1... That is correct. The Creative Cloud Desktop app was failing updating itself (as it still does on every "update") quite a bit, I don't remember any specific messages, but I did see somewhere along the process that I wasn't able to install the Premiere 7.1 update with my 10.7.4. One of the systems here is have a ton of issues with AE, but that's a whole new thread I think. I will attach some of those errors for kicks, but all of these problems occured with the introduction of the virus that is Creative Cloud into our working environment.
I am working with a wide variety of media: R3D, 5D, F55 4K XAVC, Canon C-300, XDCAM EX, FS-100, ProRes. The projects that I've been having the most issues with lately has the Canon C-300 .MXF media mixed with 5D h.264 as a 2 camera multi-cam set up. The other project that was giving me a lot of trouble right when I installed the Premiere 7.1 update was R3D and F55 4K XAVC. Both issues were the "A Serious Error has occurred. Premiere will try and save your project" vague warning. I usually only lost work since the last Autosave 20 minute interval, but sometimes that is a lot of work and when it happens 10 times in one day, that is unacceptable.
Here are some answers to some more of those questions:
What other software are you running?
These are all possible conflicting software (IMO) that are installed:
Final Cut Studio 3
Avid Symphony 6.0.3
Cinema 4D R14
RED CineX
Davinci Resolve
Nuke7
Adobe CS5.5 and CS6 are still installed
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
Yes. Trapcode Suite, Primatte, lots of scripts in After Effects. Lots of codecs installed from Sony, Avid, RED, Canon, etc.
I think I've answered most of the other questions in this thread, but hopefully that helps. I will update when I'm able to get 10.8.5 installed. I suppose a clean install of 10.7.5 perhaps might have the same chances of fixing this as well.
Here is the Premiere Error:
Here are a series of AE errors, that might need their own thread:
