Best report to check application and package deployment compliancy?

I am looking for the best report to check application and package deployment compliancy.
Preferably targeting a collection.

I'm recommending this one:
Software Distribution - Application Monitoring folder -
All application deployments (advanced)
It allows you to select Collections and applications

App-V 5.0 Reporting Application and Package Information Not Available

I have SQL Reporting Services set up and Excel and am able to interrogate AppVReporting DB using both. The problem is the Application and Packaging DBs do not appear to be populating.
The Client information definitely is and I can see it is updating correctly as it is showing the PCs that have been upgraded to HF4. The other two are empty. The reports run fine just with no content in them.
There is nothing obvious in the Client-Reporting debug log on the client. If I manually do the Send- PS command I get a confirmation it has uploaded successfully. What I can't get is why one part of it appears to be updating correctly but not another but
there is no separation anywhere that would explain it.
I am guessing that it may be something to with a permission issue but hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. The only other thing I think a little bit strange when looking through the client settings is Reporting is enabled when I check
in Powershell but if I go through regedit and look at the App-V 5.0 client reporting settings Reporting Enabled =0. May be a red herring but just thought I would include if it rings any bells for anyone.

Hello,
There is a stored procedure that processes the sent information. According to Microsoft it is scheduled to run at 00:00 everyday

Clients getting Applications and Packages, but NOT Software Updates

I am trying to set up a new SCCM2012 installation and have come across a strange problem that I need help on.
We have a single primary site at one location with distribution points at several other locations. Clients at some of the locations (but not all) are able to get deployed applications and packages from their DP, but for some reason are not able to get Software
Updates from the same DP.
When I look in the LocationServices log, I can see it contact the DP when an application is available. The following appear in the log:
Current AD site of machine is XYZ
Calling back with the following distribution points
Distribution Point='https://<My DP>...,Locality='LOCAL',DPType='Server',Version='7958', etc.
Calling back with locations for location request {<CID>}
But otherwise, the LocationServices log is filled with:
Current AD site of machine is XYZ
Calling back with empty distribution points list
Current AD site of machine is XYZ
I don't understand how the machine is able to locate and work with the DP for Applications/Packages, but not for Software Updates. I'm thinking it must be something with the boundaries/boundary groups, but I have checked and everything seems to be fine,
and they are working for Apps/Packs.

The WindowsUpdate.log seems to indicate that it is talking with the MP:
**START** Agent: Finding updates [CallerId=CcmExec]
*Include potentialy superseded updates
*online=Yes;Ignor download priority=Yes
*Criteria="(DeploymentAction=* AND Type='Software') OR (DeploymentAction=* AND Type='Driver')"
*Search Scope={Machine}
+++++ PT: Synchronizing server updates +++++
+ ServiceId= {<CID>}, Server URL = <My MP with appropriate port>
Agent * Added update {<CID>}.202 to search result
* Found 289 updates and 77 categories in search; evaluated appl. rules of 2711 out of 4339 deployed entities
** END ** Agent:Finding updates [CallerID=CcmExec]
But there is no mention of my DP.

Best way to remove applications and unneeded files

I have an Imac running slow. Duo Core processor. 4 mgs Ram. Disabled Java in Safari. Getting all my photos off the computer. Safari runs slow. Beachball forever. Have removed past Mac Keeper. Want to know the best way (Until I can add more RAM, if I can, to speed up my mac. I have had to purchase Adobe Cloud to replace Photoshop etc and want to remove all files on my computer not needed for Adobe and any other files slowing down my computer. Also, need Safari to be working. I wait for ever for pages to load and to access Gmail. Want to defragment my hard drive as well.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Empty the trash in the Dock as well as iPhoto’s trash!
Open up your application folder & go through all your apps. Trash all the apps you no longer want and/or use.
An easier way to do this is to open the Application folder in list view & press the Command+j keys.
In the the dialog that appears, click the "This Window Only" button & the "Calculate All Sizes" check box.
Wait a bit until your file & folder sizes have all been calculated, then click the "Size" column to sort your apps from the fattest to the most anorexic.
Get rid of all your photo files you don't want and/or need. Same goes for those pics off the websites you downloaded (gifs, jpegs, etc.). Or transfer/move them all to a photo/movie storage site like ImageShack and Photobucket, 2 of the most popular FREE storage sites.
Get rid of all your video & music files you no longer view and/or listen too. Especially, if you already have the actual CD/DVDs or you can later redownload from a website. Or transfer them all to a FREE video/movies and/or music storage site.
Use Spotlight to make sure you got rid of everything. You can even trash directly from Spotlight! Better yet, download this FREE software called Find File. This app puts Spotlight to shame (works w/Mountain Lion).
Drag what you don't want and/or need to the trash. Better yet, download this neat little shareware app *demo* called AppZapper. It basically does all the work for you by not only trashing the apps but the apps preference files, caches & all its associated files.
Another software that does the above is AppDelete. Best of all this software is free!
Burn what you want and/or need onto CDs or DVDs. Not everyone has the luxury of purchasing an external HD and/or the system requirements for iCloud to store their "stuff.”
Dropbox is a free storage utility to check out.
You can check with your ISP to see if they offer *free* storage space. Most if not all do now-a-days. There are thousands if not millions of *free* storage facilities on the web also. Use your favorite search engine to search them out as they come in different storage sizes to fit your needs & wants.
Check for duplicate fonts.
Applications>Font Book
Select “All Fonts”
If you see any “black dots” next to any fonts this mean you have duplicates and/or multiple versions of these fonts.
To clean this up, select a “black dotted” font or the Apple + *click* to select multiple dotted fonts;
Edit>Resolve>Duplicates.
What the above does is turns off the duplicates & multiple version fonts. Not delete them.
More than likely the “extras” were installed by other programs and/or other users.
Clear out font caches
Use FontNuke. It does all the work for you. And, best of all it’s *FREE*.
Printer Drivers
Get rid of all the printer drivers you don’t need & use except the ones for your *current* printer(s)/scanner(s).
HD>Library>Printers Folder
If you accidently threw something out that you needed for your printer/scanner it can be easily obtained from the manufacturer’s website and/or from the CD that came w/the printer/scanner.
Garage Band
Has about 1GB of loops stored. Get rid of some some them. You surely don’t use, like and/or need them all.
HD>Library>Audio/Apple Loops>Apple>Apple Loops For GarageBand
Or just get rid of the Garage Band app altogether if you don’t use it.
Get rid of extra languages
Strip your computer down to your “native” tongue.
You can do this with a *FREE* utility called Monolingual. Another app that apparently does all the work for you. I’ve never used it. However, a lot of users here swear by & recommend it highly.
However, there is a warning for *native English speakers*. Make sure you keep BOTH English and English (United States).

SCCM 2012 Application and Packages Distribution

Hi Giants,
Its Great to work with SCCM 2012 with plenty of New Features.
Let me explain my requirement.
1. Office 2010 Professional Plus SP1 with 15 Language Packs included
-----MSP 1. Without Access
-----MSP 2. With Access
-----MSP 3. With Access and Retain Old Version Access
Now My Requirement.
1. We want to deploy Office with Access to "Collection 1" and Office without Access to "Collection 2"
2. If i create Office 2010 as a Application, i can create two deployment type with different command line, but i can select the deployment type while creating Deployment. [ There should of been a drop down option like Packages. :-( ]
3. If i create Office 2010 as a Package, i cannot use the detection method or requirement rules and even i cannot publish it to Application Catalog.
Now the Scenario.
1. I can create 2 application with same source with different command line and deploy to different collection, but if i update the content in the source package, i need to give a update content to both the applications.
2. Its not a big problem to give update content to both packages, but the problem is for 1st application if i give update content, sccm will find the difference and sent the changes to DP, and when i give update content to 2nd application the same process
happens and changes are transferred to DP.
Now the Problem
1. the effort involved in transferring the changes to DP becomes twice, which means 1 GB of changes will make 2 GB transfer to DP and when adding to Content Library, SCCM is smart enough to save 1 GB.
2. Is there any where we can avoid multiple transfer to DP which will eat the bandwidth.
3. Or is there a way to define which deployment type to used in Deployment.
4. Or is there a way to publish Packages to Application Catalog.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Torsten,
Thanks for the reply.
1. if i create a single application with two different Deployment type, that is two different command line, which requirement rules i can use to differentiate them, because there is no logical separation for these command lines.
i.e. DT1. Office with Access and DT2. Office without Access.
this separation is done only for the license and is it possible to create a requirement in a way that only if this specific device in a specific collection user "With Access" or "Without Access"
2. Yes, CM12 is smart enough to save disk space with content library, but that smartness is missing while transferring the content to DP, which mean increase in Bandwidth utilization.
3. Great, i was not aware that Classic Packages can be published to Software Catalog.
Thanks Again,
SithaYuvaraj.

What is wrong ?
I have Windows NT and Tomcat 5 (from jwsdp 1.2).
Thank you,
Alex.

I just tried to reproduce the problem with old version of Tomcat (4.0.2) and ... it works. It is definitely specific for Tomcat 5 (or may be one of the late Tomcat 4 as well). There is another related difference:
With Tomcat 4 I could create javabean in class subdirectory (default package) and use
<%@ page import="ex01" %>
Now with Tomcat 5 I have syntax error in this line.
This syntax error disappeared when I moved javabean into package pack01.

Global Package Check Switch and Package Attributes

Hi everyone,
I would like to know where can I display/change the Global Package Check Switch of a system in release ECC 6.0? I know it can be set to "Pure Package Concept" for example.
I've looked into the SAP on-line documentation and the system customizing (SPRO) but without luck. Can anyone guide me?
I am also looking for the Package attributes. In Package Builder (SE21) there is suppose to be a way to set a package to "Package Check as Server". I saw in the SAP on-line documentation that there is a "Attributes" tab but I cannot find it. Does someone know where I could find such attributes?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Sylvain

»ABAP Objects« (Keller/Köhler) S.69 Abb.2.13 shows checkboxes to turn on package checks / Paketprüfung als Server / Client, yet no obvious way to make these checkboxes appear.
This question has not been answered, don't know why it is »Assumed Answered«.

Web applications and packages

Hi,
In a web application I have created 2 different packages, regardin two differnt topics.
WEB-INF/classes/Topic1/*..class
WEB-INF/classes/Topic2/*.class
Actually I want a Topic1 class uses a Topic2 class.
Than the java source file in Topic1 contains
import Topic2.myClass;
but whe I try to compile I got the error:
class file contains wrong class:Topic2.myClass
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath
I've even tried to add the complete path to classpath, but It doesn't work.
What can I do?
Thank's

your classpath during compilation should have this, assuming your Java source files are in the classes directory also...
<path-to>/WEB-INF/classes

Is it pattern matching the best way to check presence and orientation of components on a pcb board?

Hi, like i ask on the title i need some hint about this. I need to program a simple AOI machine that must inspect a pcb board and find if all the components are correctly placed and oriented. I though to use the pattern matching with a good template of the object to inspect. Can it work?
All kinds of tips that may come to your mind please tell me, because this is the first time i try a task like this. I already have some experience in image manipulation but not in AOI machines.
Francesco.

Hi Francesco,
you can find some useful information here, here and here.
I hope this will help!

Need a SCCM SQL Query Report for Installed Software with Packages and Applications.

I need a report that will show the number of installs of all of the workstations applications and packages over a given period of time.
This will let us know how effective our deployments are and how well the on-demand software is being adopted.
Any help?

Your Install Source might be an option as most SCCM deployments will install from C:\Windows\ccmcache\xx [where xx is a random folder name]. Most software vendors will put an install source in the registry, but not all do, so it won't be completely accurate.
When software is installed manually, the install source path won't be C:\Windows\ccmcache\xx.
Here is a SQL query I have for Install Source:
SELECT v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.Name0 as 'Computer Name', v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ProductName0 as 'Software Title', v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.InstallSource0 as 'Install Source', v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ProductVersion0 as 'Version', v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.InstalledLocation0
as 'Installed Location', v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.InstallDate0 as 'Install Date'
FROM v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM INNER JOIN v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE ON v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.ResourceID = v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ResourceID
WHERE v_GS_INSTALLED_SOFTWARE.ProductName0 like '%Office 365 Pro%'
ORDER BY v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.Name0

What is the best way to find application issues as an email alert

Hi,
We have hotel booking system which is developed as a web application. Suppose any hotel booking failed means we have to check manually in the database.
So now we are planing to build a automatic system, if any booking failed it will gives mail alert.
We are planning to build a console application and we deploy this console application as windows service in the production server.
Is there any better options for this scenario, Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Thanking You, Nagendra.

We are planning to build a console application and we deploy this console application as windows service in the production server.
A console application is not a Window service. Yes, you can use a Windows Service for this, but it's an entirely different type of a program that is constantly running, which would probably be better for you.
But there is nothing wrong with a Console exe or Windows form exe. With both, you can set the project's setup type to point to the Program.cs. In the Windows forms project, you would rip out everything about the form.
There are articles on both exe solutions on how to do the above and change the startup, and either way it would be a solution you can use as scheduled running program using the Windows O/S Job Scheduler.
You have to do something in the Web application to queue the messages by either dumping them as text files to a file share, using MSMQ, or MS SQL Server Service Broker Message Queue. You would have your email program go to the staging area, get the text
messages and email them. You may also want to think about archiving the messages.
You have to email some kind of way. If you have a MS Exchange Server and Outlook, the you can use the Outlook objects in C# to email the messages.
But probably the simplest thing to do is use the MS SQL Server.
http://www.sqlservercurry.com/2008/02/how-to-send-email-using-sql-server-2005.html
The email traffic you are talking about is miniscule or at beat nothing traffic to SQL Server, just call the sproc from your C# code. :)
As for your little email program, you may want to use Eventlog to log message about the email program activates, or you can use Log4Net, which has a tutorials for Log4Net.
Heck you can make Log4Net send emails, which is something else you may want to consider in your Web application. :)

Best Practice for Multiple iTunes and One Account?

My wife and I share our account for our iPhone Applications and Songs in iTunes.
Can someone point me to a topic that covers a best practice for multiple iTunes syncing?
I travel a lot and keep my iPhone synced to my Macbook Pro while she uses the workstation at home to sync to. We keep the addresses and contacts and calendars synced through MobileMe, however, I'm trying to find the best way of pushing applications and songs I've bought over to the other PC so they're still around while I'm traveling for her to sync with.
Thoughts?

Hi Steve,
Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
Hope this Helps!!!
Sorry if i misunderstood your question.

SCCM: Application deployment vs Package deployment with requirements and prerequisits.

Hey,
My organization is in the process of implementing a new remote networking solution for all employees, however some employees require additional software vs others. What I am trying to find out is if there is a way to have one package with supersedes and
requirements that we can use to do a massive deployement.
Here are the different scenarios with order of installation:
Financial group Desktop:
1.Install New solution
2.Install Configuration
3.Install Token Authentication
(nothing crazy)
Financial Group Laptops
1.Install Token Authentication
2.Install New Solution
3.Install COnfiguration
4.Un-uninstall Old Solution
5.Un-install Tunnel Guard application (requires a reboot, that's why it's last). (this is the application that would be deployed with requirements to go back up the chain of supersedes (meaning, deploy 5, but do 4, when 4 is triggered, it does 3 first, etc...)
All other laptops
1.Install New Solution
2.Install COnfiguration
3.Un-uninstall Old Solution
4.Un-install Tunnel Guard application (requires a reboot, that's why it's last).(this is the application that would be deployed with requirements to go back up the chain of supersedes (meaning, deploy 4, but do 3, when 3 is triggered, it does 2 first, etc...)
Because of the different requirements, is there a way to have one deployment with multiple deployment types to say based off:
1. Computer types (we have a naming convention that identifies laptops and desktops.
2. Only install certain pieces of software (Token validator in this case if financial application is detected on the machine).
Or should I create different applications for each case with different collections or go with 3 different packages and collections with install this package first set in the package deployment
Thanks for your help.

The problem is the last uninstall, because it's not applicable to all machines. That means that if you would deploy that with all it's dependencies, it wouldn't do anything on the desktops as it's not applicable to them.
In this case, if you want to use one deployment, the easiest solution is a task sequence. That way you can target everything in one time and still build some logic to prevent some (un-)installs.

Deploye 9i reports on 10g application server and run report

Dear All
I am new to oracle application server.
We have application developed in oracle 9i developer suit (forms and reports).
I have deployed the forms on application server quit easily by configuring formsweb.cnfg file. I am using mmb file for menu and all the forms are attahed to it and running. I am facing proble in deploying and run the reports through menu i.e mmb file. Some one told me that it is better to run reports from forms. So i put the button on form and use the command of web.show_document and its URL in braces and define the key in cgdcmd.dat (i dont know the exact name of file).
Key was some thing like this :
reptest: abc/abc@orcl desttype = cache %*
and in url:
http://192.168.1.147:7779/reports/repservlt?reptest&..... d:\abd\reports\report.rdf
(i dont know exactly the url)
but any way, after that i run the form and press the button to call reports,...., browser does open and it shows a report template but not with the report data but with REP-ERROR. Error was i guess 52001 or 2. well the message of report error was. "reptest key cannot be found" / "reptest key is not defined".
while i have already define the key in above mention .DAT file. and after that i have restart the instance but still no use.
CAN ANY ONE HELP !, I AM IN GRAVE SITUATION OF EMERGENCY AS I HAVE TO CONFIGURE REPORTS ON MENEU TILL TOMORROW ANY HOW.
Thanks
Abdul Majid.

There is a forms/reports only installation available and it is safe to use this. This is if you ONLY want to run forms and reports and don't need things like SSO
