Bug: CR XI on Windows Terminal Server 2008

We have a problem when printing a report for example with 2 columns, where the 1st column's content is larger than the width of that column, then the content is printed through colum 2.
But only when:
working on remote on Terminal Server 2008
when printing on a remote printer (redirected)
There's no problem:
in the preview window
when printing to a local printer of the server
on Terminal Server 2003
Any ideas?
Tx
Patrick

You mentioned it worked fine in the preview window, so does the issue only show up when not printing with data?

Cannot quit Visual FoxPro (Windows Terminal Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1)

Hi everybody:
This is not the typical question about this error, because the problem here is not about how to quit (CLEAR EVENTS then QUIT). The really and weird problem is that our application do no execute the error trapping routines (Try/Catch and ON ERROR) and tries
to directly Quit.
I have never seen something like this before, error trapping routines not executed.
I try to explain the problem better:
- The user click on the Citrix icon of our App
- Citrix shows the executed processes (establishing connection, applying user config, loading profile, etc)
- The Application (VFP 9 SP2) is started and in any moment, while loading, occurs an error that is not handled by error handlers, and it executes a "kind" of a Quit command, that we detect because have a ON SHUTDOWN to catch it, then the App shut
down and the user must click the Citrix icon and start all over again, up to 7 times, when the App really load and work.
- I think that it is useful to make clear that no QUIT command is really causing this, just the behaviour of the QUIT when an error occurs, but just while loading. If the App get completely loeaded, then everything works as expected
Infraestructure:
- Windows Terminal Server 2008 + Citrix XenApp 5 + VMWare vCenter 5.1
- There are up to 50 concurrent users max in every virtualized server
- More than 10 GB of free disk space / Up to 4 GB ram
- RAM Memory is never used to the max
- CPU (Intel Xeon) is never used to the max (up to 90% in some cases)
- Data (DBFs for temporal work) ar on local drive, not over network (to avoid network known problems with smb2-3)
- There are connection to a Oracle 11 database for permanently storing the data
About the errors:
- They are not always the same or in the same place. In example, in one execution could fail the query of SET("Printer",2), in other execution could fail a SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE (sometimes already loaded), in other could fail a "DO
WHILE .T." in a init event.... completely crazy, and in all cases the errors are not thrown, not a single error code, the App just try to quit, as if ALT+F4 where pressed.
- All this does not happen allways to everyone, but happens many times in the day to many many users as to be worried
- The same user can have this error many times a day, but not allways
- Some of the problems started when migrating to Windows Terminal Server 2008, but didn't notice nothing special in the beginning, but a year later (last 2014) problems tend to go worse
Tried solutions:
- For the "SET PROCEDURE TO xxx ADDITIVE" error, a "IF xxx $ SET('PROCEDURE')" check was added
- The "SET('Printer',2)" check was moved out of initialization code, so it executes when user want to print the first time. In this case was neccesary to talk with IT guys to map a default printer after the App runs, and not in background, as it
was.
- Other checks and modifications was made to minimize posibility of errors
- Adding a timeout of 5 secs in the start of the program, to force a wait
- Restart of virtual servers (not the phisical) every 3 weeks
What I suspect:
- Some Microsoft optimization (memory?, process execution?) in WTS-2008 may interfere?
- Some VMWare memory management may interfere with WTS-2008?
- Some Citrix management may interfere with both?
- Server degradation because of day to day use
Results until now:
- Apparently, adding the timeout to force 5 secs delay and the restart of the server have made a notable enhancement in App start and running
with far fewer
errors
Has
this happened to anyone?
Thanks! o_O

I never had this type of problems, but somewhat similar start up problems. I'd say it indicates resource problems. Low RAM can cause many unpredictable things. In my case loading much data at the begin of an application caused out of memory errors, which
were reported and logged normally, though.
I made a small tool using Windows API functions GetPerformanceInfo and GetProcessMemoryInfo, you'll find declaration and usage like usual at the News2News site. It's a bit lengthy and cluttered, but pretty much what you find there anyway, so I'll not post
my utility code.
I could quite clearly see how many users degraded available memory per session and at some time no further instance of the application was possible on the server. In my case RDP was used to start the app, Citrix will be quite the same, in the end the application
runs on some server and users see the remote running application.

Is BPC 7.0 compatible with Windows Terminal Server 2008?

Is BPC 7.0 compatible with Windows Terminal Server 2008? We are having printing issues when on WTS 2003.

BPC 7.0M SP08 was released on September 1st and now supports the client install on both Server 2008 and Windows 7 so yes, you should be able to use terminal server in Windows 2008 if you install SP08. It also has limited support for Office 2010, full support will come with SP09. SAP Note 1490544 is the central SP08 note, and 1504400 is the download note.

Adobe Acrobat X Pro - Windows Terminal Server 2008

Hi All,
Im hoping some one maybe able to help me on this, We have recently purchased the Adobe Acrobat X Pro for one of our clients and have just installed it onto their Windows 2008 x32 Terminal server. Inatall appeared to be fine, no errors reported and nothing logged into the event viewer. However we seem to be having issues with it... I did read a PDF guide early last week that said the X Pro should work fine on a Server 2008 - The install instructions where rather straight forward and I thought their would have been more to it than just installing it via the control panel.
The issue we have is the program opens up ok and is usable for about a min and it then crashes with no obvious reason, From looking in the event log it appears to report issues with the PDApp.exe and the Kernel32.dll - Has anyone come across any similar issues?
Many Thanks

Hi,
You can also send the crash dump by following the below mentioned steps:
Install WinDbg from http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx
Launch WinDbg via the shortcut
Click File->Open Executable
Select Acrobat.exe from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe" and hit "OK"
Remember to press "g" and hit enter when you encounter the first breakpoint and then you will see a text "Debuggee is running" and Acrobat will be launched
Open whatever file is it that produces the crash in Acrobat.
When you have successfully reproduced the sceanrio causing the crash/freezing of Acrobat X, enter the below command in the WinDbg terminal
.dump /ma c:\temp.dmp (Hit enter)
This will produce the crash dump at C:\ by the name of temp.dmp
After that please upload the dump (compress the dump using WinZip or likewise) at some third party sites and provide the link for the same. Also, if it’s possible could you share the PDF as well, for which your application crashes on a consistent basis.

Thunderbird cannot open attachment after idle for several hours on Windows Terminal Server 2008 R2 Enterprise

We are using Thunderbird on WTS2008 R1
Cannot open attachment after thunderbird is launched for a short period of time. Tried to save attachment but the attachment saved actually comes with 0kb. Thunderbird works fine after restart itself, not sure if any settings can fix this?

Hi Darrkon,
I suggest checking the status of the HealthMailbox on each of servers.
Also try to re-create the mailbox. You can safely delete and recreate health mailboxes.
Be aware that any local Managed Availability probes that are using the these mailboxes will fail until the Microsoft Exchange Health Manager is restarted. Once that service is restarted, it will recreate any mailboxes that it needs.

Hi,
The issue could be due to the shadow copies on the backup volumes are corrupt. You could try to delete these shadow copies to check if the issue still exist.

B1 pelo WTS (Windows Terminal Server)

Boa tarde a todos...
Estou com um problema aqui na empresa que trabalho, foi implantado o B1 na unidade central e agora estamos implantando na filial de Porto Alegre....
Os usuarios de Porto Alegre irão acessar a base de dados que fica na central em São Paulo via WTS (Windows Terminal Server )...
Acontece que estamos enfrentando um grande problema com velocidade, visto que o acesso de Porto Alegre ficou extremamente lento.
Alguem ja passou por uma situação parecida?
Saberiam como melhorar essa questão da velocidade?
Ou alguma outra sugestão para essa implantação?

Edited by: Rui Pereira on Aug 27, 2008 5:02 PM

Oi
Não existe uma forma de alterar o SAP B1 para melhorar limitações de conetividade remota.
O WTS possui os seus próprios requisitos mínimos de comunicação e consoante o tamanho dos documentos e a quantidade de usuários conetados a performance vai ser mais reduzida.
Caso a rede seja utilizada para outras atividades, como armazenamento de arquivos (Word, Excel, etc...) isso irá afetar ainda mais a performance da comunicação remota.
Normalmente os valores recomendos são:
Windows Terminal Services .
-Bandwidth per user = 20 - 40 Kb
-Memory per user = 50 - 70 MB
Nota: Estes valores são meramente indicativos e a documentação mais recente da Microsoft deve ser consultada relativamente a largura de banda recomendada tal como referido na nota SAP 675004.

How to install KB2950358 on Windows STORAGE Server 2008 R2?

Hello
I am experiencing the exact issue described
here on my WD Sentinel DX4000 nas box which runs Windows Storage Server 2008 R2. This is causing regular crashes and reboots and general unreliability when the memory leak causes all ram to be used up and the CPU is constantly running at 100% which both
increases electricity usage and shortens the lifespan of the system.
I have downloaded the hotfix on that KB article but it refuses to install claiming that it is not compatible. When the underlying Windows Server 2008 R2 OS is the same how can it not be compatible? My theory is that the Storage server version is only used
and available on a small handful of OEM devices and there's barely any information of it on the internet so I think Microsoft have forgotten to add it to the compatibility list for this particular hotfix.
After weeks of searching, I cannot find a way to force install the update. It's not a business-critical system and I've got backups of it so I am happy to try manual or risky efforts to get it installed. I have tried extracting the MSU file but that doesn't
give me any useful files to install it manually or skip the compatibility checks.
I've also tried to contact Microsoft directly but they don't even have Storage Server listed as an option on their support contact page so I've given up there, as a last resort I am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Other online forums
refuse to help saying it's too risky with a server but personally I want it installed and will try anything to do so because I've got a £1000 NAS sitting here that is unusable due to this issue. I'd rather not reinstall the OS as the problem reoccurs - I've
tried it already before I found this KB article.
Bottom line, Microsoft have identified the issue and released a hotfix, the server version IS supported, but was not added to the compatibility restrictions of the update so I cannot get the update installed.
Any advice gladly received. Hopefully someone from MS will see this and be able to update the compatibility of the hotfix if nothing else is possible.

I see SP1 is a prerequisite. Also the manufacturer may have specific patch procedures or recommendations so I'd probably contact them directly.

Can't install LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 6.1 on Windows Terminal Server

With my system admin, we tried to install the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 6.1 on our Windows Terminal Server NT4. And we get an error all the time:
-install using the plugin
-install using LVRTE.exe
-install after rebooting the server
But I remember that we could install the Run-Time Engine 6.0 on another Windows Terminal Server NT4.
Is there any compatibility issues with the new Run-Time Engine 6.1 ??
Thanks for your help
Cyrille

Cyrille,
What is the error that you get when trying to install the run-time engine?
Are you installing it from the LabVIEW CD, or did you download it from the web site?
To further troubleshoot this problem, it would be best if you send us an email to [email protected] and send the above information.
Also, try running the installer from the command prompt window, and use the following syntax:
setup.exe/l*v
This will save the error log to the file you specify. Send us also this file to help us troubleshoot.
Thanks

Auditing failed access to files and folders in Windows Storage Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I've been trying to figure out why I cannot audit the failed access to files and folders on my server. I'm trying to replace a unix-based NAS with a Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 solution so I can use my current audit tools (the 'nix NAS
has basically none). I'm looking for a solution for a small remote office with 5-10 users and am looking at Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 (no props yet, but on a Buffalo appliance). I specifically need to audit the failure of a user to access
folders and files they are not supposed to view, but on this appliance it never shows. I have:
Enabled audit Object access for File system, File share and Detailed file share
Set the security of the top-level share to everyone full control
Used NTFS file permissions to set who can/cannot see particular folders
On those folders (and letting those permissions flow down) I've set the auditing tab to "Fail - Everyone - Full Control - This folder, subfolders and files"
On the audit log I only see "Audit Success" messages for items like "A network share object was checked to see whether client can be granted desired access (Event 5145) - but never a failure audit (because this user was not allowed access by NTFS permissions).
I've done this successfully with Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 w/SP1 and am wondering if anybody has tried this with the Windows Storage Server version (with success of course). My customer wants an inexpensive "appliance" and I thought this new
variant of 2008 was the ticket, but I can't if it won't provide this audit.
Any thoughts? Any of you have luck with this? I am (due to the fact I bought this appliance out of my own pocket) using the WSS "Workgroup" flavor and am wondering if this feature has been stripped from the workgroup edition of WSS.
TIA,
--Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
The steps to setup Audit on a WSS system should be the same as a standard version of Windows Server. So please redo the steps listed below to see if issue still exists:
Enabling file auditing is a 2-step process.
[1] Configure "audit object access" in AD Group Policy or on the server's local GPO. This setting is located under Computer Configuration-->Windows Settings-->Security Settings-->Local Policies-->Audit Policies. Enable success/failure auditing
for "Audit object access."
[2] Configure an audit entry on the specific folder(s) that you wish to audit. Right-click on the folder-->Properties-->Advanced. From the Auditing tab, click Add, then enter the users/groups whom you wish to audit and what actions you wish to audit
- auditing Full Control will create an audit entry every time anyone opens/changes/closes/deletes a file, or you can just audit for Delete operations.
