Basic Install Question

I've run previous version's of OS X, and can't recall having this occur. After repartitioning/wiping the drive, I've noticed that on trying to save the install log, there exists a Directory "root" (with a home icon), followed by a subdirectory of "Library," followed by a file called "globalpreferences.plist"
The only reason I ask is because after erasing and repartitioning the drive, I wouldn't expect this directory to exist midway or even right upon starting the install and trying to save the log.
Any info would be appreciated.....

Indeed, I think it may have been meant for Private>Var>Root.

Basic install question for Flex on CF 7.02

Hello,
I've been trying to get Flex working on CF 7.02 and I'm
reading very different and conflicting stories.
Firstly I have CF 7 running on 2003, and then installed the
updates for7.01 and then 7.02 .
I installed as a single server instance.
Reading here, I just need 7.02 and I should be fine
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/fr_fds.html
This here tells something completely different, with lots of
config files
http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flex/1/flexforcf.html
What is most annoying is that I had it working on a local
server and it was fine. But this was installed over a year ago, and
I don't have a steps taken that made it work. That server is now
being used for something else.
I don't know if I need the FDS or Lifecycle to be installed
as everything I read says FDS is part of CF.
I have also read that FDS express can be downloaded and run
on a Java server, and that it doesn't need cF, but this in not the
solution to my problem..
To summerize:-
I need to get Flex apps running on CF 7.02 in a production
environment.
Do i need do install anymore than CF, if so how much does it
cost?
I'm not a CF programmer, and don't know much about it, I
usually deal with MS stuff
Thanks very much

Thanks again EJ, I really appreciate your ongoing help here. With some difficulty I was able to post this;
https://communities.oracle.com/portal/server.pt/community/view_discussion_topic/216?threadid=380585&Portlet=Create%20Discussion&PrevPage=Communities-CreateDiscussion
I just want to verify this new community is set-up correctly; I have two accounts for the Oracle site, this one (linked to my gmail email) and another linked to my work email (I can log support cases with the latter).
I'm not able to hit that community from this account (linked to my gmail email), the error I get is;
We are sorry, we could not log you in. We apologize for the inconvenience. One of the following might have happened: You don't have a valid Customer Support Identifier. Your privileges are not up to date. This should be resolved by logging in into My Oracle Support. Internal error in the login process.
The bit about the support identifier in the error message led me to try my work account - with some trouble I was able to get in and post the question above.
Is this new community only open to people with a support identifier?
EDIT>>>>: Getting that error with both accounts now. I realize you don't "support the forums", just let me know if you think the new forum has been setup correctly. Thanks again EJ.

Basic iPhoto questions:

I have some Basic iPhoto questions before I start using the program:
- does iPhoto apply any compression or change images in any way when they
are imported?
- after images are imported, can the original source folder of images be deleted off of the mac?
- can Quicktime files exported from iPhoto be viewed on a Windows computer?
- can iPhoto handle large resolution images that might be as large as 8-15mb each? does it display them quick? are there any known file size issues?
Thanks!!!!

kat.
Is there a way to use iPhoto on a network so other users can read and possibly write to an iPhoto library on a networked mac?
iPhoto is a consumer level photo organiser, not a server. It's possible to share photos but libraries are very difficult and fraught with the danger of database corruption. Some have reported success.
Is it possible to password protect or secure certain images in the library so they can not be seen by anyone?
No. The best I can suggest there is to create a second library and store it in a secure area like a protected dmg. But remember, you can only have one library open at a time.
After photos are deleted from iPhoto, are there any remaining traces or cached files anywhere other than the trash
If you delete photos from iPhoto and empty the iPhoto trash then the pics are removed from the Finder as well. They remain as findable as any other deleted file from that point, which is, very, if the searcher in knowledgeable.

Object class deployment - Basic form question

OK, I subclass calendar object from Oracle provided standard
object class. What do I need to deploy to use this form now
apart from calendar.pll and my fmx. What about the object class
from which I sub-class. Do I need to compile and deploy that
also? How will form resolve this on run time the parent object
class as I really did not copy, just sub class and we do not
deploy original class? Basic form question. Thanks.

You can set the "help" property on the field (which gives you the little "information" icon link beside the field).
You could also try adding another field of another class above or below:
<Display class='InlineAlert'/>
<Display class='ErrorMessage'/>
<Display class='HtmlPage'/>
..etc

Basic install of SOA 10.1.3.1 in XP fails

Greetings All,
Soa 10.1.3.1 iinstall in XP completed successfully. After few days the oc4j startup failed with error. Therefore, I deinstalled it and tried to install it again (basic install).
The install and set up completed without any error. During configuration when it tries to configure BPEL install fails with following error:
*Could not get DeploymentManager
This is typically the result of an invalid deployer URI format being supplied, the target server not being in a started state or incorrect authentication details being supplied. More information is available by enabling logging -- please see the Oracle Containers for J2EE Configuration and Administration Guide for details.*
Does any one know how to fix this error?
Thanks,
Raman

All,
This issue is now resollved. I cleaned up the Temp directory and tried re-install and install completed without any error.
Isn't this odd behavior (because I don't understand it).
Does any one have any explaation for this behavior?
Thanks,
Raman Shah

Advanced vs. Basic Install

Hey everyone,
What is the difference between advanced vs. basic install for OBIEE?
I paged through the deployment guide (b40058.pdf), and the most that I could find is that you have to have an advanced install in order to setup SSL. I also think I remember reading that you need the advanced install for SSO.
Are there any other security benefits to an advanced install beyond those two points?
Thanks!
-Joe

Hi Joe,
The main reason for using Advanced is that if you have Oracle Application Server then the process is integrated and slightly different, and that environment would give you access to SSO etc
The basic installation is quick and easy, but should also be used if you are then going to deploy to an other web server, this includes weblogic, which although an Oracle product in name and I believe the 'go forward' web platform, is not yet integrated into the installer for OBIEE.
Hope this helps
regards
Ed

Free download, and install question

Free download, and install question.
I need to buy a larger h/d, but till then I would like to put as many programs as possible on a external usb drive that I have hooked up to my PC. I've been able to do this with some other programs, and would like to try it with my Adobe Reader and Flash. When down loading and installing it does not give me the option to install in a defferent location other then my C: drive. Can this be done? Thanks you?

From the MSI you have to create a MST (Transforms). In the MST create now the new property INSTALLDIR=F:\, where F: is your USB-drive. If you use then the command
msiexec.exe /i [MSI] transforms=[MST]
Adobe Reader should be installed to F:

Is Basic Install of 10.1.3.1 Sufficient for SOA Suite Tutorial

Hi there. My knowledge of Application Server is pretty basic. I've been trying to setup for the SOA Suite Tutorial. I installed Database Express Edition installed for the SOADEMO schema then ran the Basic install of SOA Suite on Windows XP without the firewall up and no DHCP.
When I run through steps in the tutorial I am unable to establish a connection to the application server. Checked the Port which is 6003. In the test of the connection I get refused a connection and a suggestion to check if OPMN is running, which it is.
I am wondering if I need the HTTP_Server web server installed as well (not installed with the Basic install). Any ideas? Maybe the tutorial only works with the Advanced Install of SOA Suite!

Reinstalled basic installation of SOA Suite. Am able to establish connection to DB in JDeveloper. When I follow the procedure in SOA Suite Tutorial to establish JDeveloper connection to the application server I get the following error when testing connection (note pipsqueak hosts SOA Suite - separate machine to JDeveloper).
Error getting OC4J Process for: opmn-home+oc4j-pipsqueak.its.utas.edu.au-6003-default:

Adding Date/Time Field + X Number of Days - Basic Calculation Question

I am assuming this is a basic calculation question. New to Adobe LiveCycle Forms.
I have a simple form containing a table. The table appears as such:
Text
Formatted as Date/Time Fields
Header 3
Monday
user wil choose the beginning date (Date/Time) this is DateTimeField1
Tuesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 1
Wednesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 2
Thursday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 3
Friday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 4
Saturday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 5
Sunday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 6
Calculations are performed after the date is chosen for Monday. My mind tells me the simple calculation of DateTimeField1 + 1 is not going to work (and in fact doesn't!) as it needs to change Monday to a number first. I saw on another thread the following:
Num2Date(Date2Num(Date(DateTimeField1), "DD.MM.YYYY")+7, "DD.MM.YYYY")
Thought this was going to get me close. No cigars though!
Any quick help is greatly appreciated. And since I am new to this, details about what needs to be changed would be great too!
Thanks

Here an addition for you date field.
This FormCalc script in the exit:Event will check it the selected date is on a monday.
If not it will go the days back until the last monday.
var Selection = Date2Num($.formattedValue, DateFmt(2))
var WeekDay = Num2Date(Selection, "E")
var NewDate
if (WeekDay eq 1) then
          NewDate = Selection - 6
elseif (WeekDay eq 3) then
          NewDate = Selection - 1
elseif (WeekDay eq 4) then
          NewDate = Selection - 2
elseif (WeekDay eq 5) then
          NewDate = Selection - 3
elseif (WeekDay eq 6) then
          NewDate = Selection - 4
elseif (WeekDay eq 7) then
          NewDate = Selection - 5
else
          NewDate = Selection
endif
$ = Num2Date(NewDate, "EEE DD.MM.YYYY")
Hope this helps, too.

Basic Exporting Question

My main question is a very basic exporting question, but here is a super-condensed explanation of my big-picture goal for context:
Large (~450 MB) aiff on CD --> trim w/ Quicktime --> small (~16 MB) MP3 in iTunes
I would like to take an audio file (aiff) that is approximately 450 MB and export it from Quicktime and in doing so, reduce the file size and convert it to MP3. When I simply try to export it, it doesn't ask me about what size I want, nor does it give the option of MP3 formatting.
I have figured out how to reach my goal, but it's a mess. After I make my trims in QT, I have to:
1. select "share" instead of "export".
2. It asks me what size I want and I select small.
3. The file is then exported as a Quicktime movie into Mail and the size is reduced from 450 MB to about 20 MB.
4. I then have to "right-click" on the attachment in the email that is created,
5. save the attachment,
6. discard the email,
7. import the file into iTunes, and
8. create an MP3 in iTunes to finally arrive at my goal.
This seems like a ridiculously convoluted process to change a large aiff to a small MP3 and put it in iTunes. Any suggestions?

Thanks. I guess the basic answer to my question is that it can't be done in one or two fell swoops. The problem is that it starts on a burned disc, and I need to make edits to it before it ends up in iTunes (to be eventually used in iWeb). I was hoping to avoid juggling back and forth between iTunes and QT. I either would have to send it back to QT to do the edits after -->iTunes-->mp3, or import the large file from the CD to QT, make the edits, save changes, import large file to iTunes, convert to mp3.

Setup basic install as a service on XP

Just wondering if anyone knew how to create a service in the control panel to start and stop SOA suite (Basic install). For some reason only the advanced version creates the service by default.
cheers
James

Hi,
How to run BDB as a Windows Service and
how to start the BDB with a simple inital
database like the Postgresql DB or MySQL?Berkeley DB is an embedded database which provides fast, portable, reliable, local persistence with zero administration.
As an embedded databse Berkeley DB is in fact a transactional storage engine for un-typed data in basic key/value data structures. Thus, Berkeley DB can't be run as a windows service, the way other RDBMSes act. Berkeley DB comes with libraries that you can integrate with your application and various useful utilities. There isn't a web interface nor an administration tool like phpMyAdmin for MySQL to manage your Berkeley DB databases, this is done via the APIs provided by Berkeley DB.

Basic Portal Server 6.0 install questions

Background:
I am currently running iPlanet Portal Server 3.0 SP4. The gateway and portal server are running on the same host. I am also using a seperate Sun One Directory Server 5.1 for portal authentication.
I am going to wipe out the current portal server and install the Sun One Portal Server 6.0. The new gateway will be installed on a seperate host. We are going to keep our existing Directory Server 5.1.
Here are my questions:
1) I don't know where to put the Netlet Proxy and Rewriter Proxy. I can put it on the gateway host or the portal host. Both boxes are comparable in horsepower but the portal host has four times the disk space. Don't know which config is more efficient.
2) I don't understand what the iDS/AME piece is or where it goes. Is this something that gets installed on the existing Directory Server host? Or does it get installed on the Portal host?
3) The install docs say that you need to install patch 113177-01 on your directory server if the install was not done using the Portal Server install procedure. We are using an existing Sun One Dir Server 5.1 so I tried to install the patch and it says I don't have the required packages installed. It looks like it's missing SUNWamds. What is this package?
Thanks for any information you can provide.

Basic u/g install question

Hello,
So I understand that installing the DS as a user other than root is reccommended.
Is there a user/group pair that is reccommended or does it matter?
The reason I ask is that i do not want to, down the road, have problems with other JES integrated components as a result of my decision.
I was going to install as dsuser and dsgroup
thanks -john

Well I found this post, right after i installed the DS as dsuser:dsgroup
In any event DS and admin serv appear to start and run fine despite not doing what is listed below.
Is it possible that sun's documentation is out of date ?? ..(: i agree with gary here that something so important as this not being talked about elsewhere, like the DS insatll guide ? or the JES unix install guide is a amiss.
Found this in the documentaion. It basically says that you must install everything as root then change to a regular user. It is in chapter 1 of the administration guide. Kind of a small blurb for something that would seem as important as this. Any way here is a cut and paste:
Normally you must be root to start Directory Server if the port is less than 1024. The following procedure enables you to use a specified non-root user instead.
Install Directory Server and Administration Server. When configuring the servers, ensure that the user for both servers is root.
Use the installation instructions in Java Enterprise System Installation Guide.
Stop the Directory Server. See Starting and Stopping Directory Server.
From the ServerRoot directory, run the following commands to change directory and file ownership to the required userID.
chown -R userID:groupID slapd-hostname
chown -R userID:groupID alias/slapd-hostname-*.db
Edit the file dse.ldif to change the nsslapd-localuser value from root to the required userID.
Restart the Directory Server. See Starting and Stopping Directory Server.
Hopefully this will help somebody out in the future.
