C#: 'Not a Valid File Name' error when I know the name and link are correct.

I'm receiving "Not a valid file name" when I know I have used this link before and the filename is spelled correctly. I'm not sure if I should be looking at something else. This is my connection code.  It fails on "conn.Open()".
For security reasons, I edited the link... it is not a working link for this question.

MyConn.Open();

A database must be locally available via the filesystem, e.g. an UNC path would do it also.

  • ITunes No Longer Runs--iTunes Helper Resources Not a Valid File Name

    I made a dumb mistake (I think) and tried to install iTunes onto an SD card.  At first, my computer would only let me open iTunes if the SD card was installed.  I tried to reinstall to the C drive, but keep getting the "I Tunes Helper Resources not a Valid File Name" message.  At this point I want to uninstall everything and start over, but I'm afraid I'll lose my music.  I still have all the files but, of course, none will open since I don't have a properly installed iTunes anymore.   Would appreciate any assistance in uninstalling, reinstalling and saving my current music files.

    Here's what I decided to do.  Fortunately, all the files were still available, so I simply backed them up from my iTunes Music Library onto a 32 GB flash drive then transferred the new stuff onto an older computer in my office with an older version of iTunes.  I had to do this in several shifts since I have more than 32GB of music.  Everything that transferred plays well.  Next I'll try to wipe iTunes completely off the new computer, reinstall an older version of iTunes and then reload all the files onto the new computer.  What a PITA!

    Hi Ychinnari,
    I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, as
    Vaishu00547 mentioned that the issue can be caused by the Execution Account you have configured in the Reporting Services Configuration Manager is not correct, Please update the Username and Password and restart the reporting services.
    Please also find more details information about when to use the execution account, if possible,please also not specify this account:
    This account is used under special circumstances when other sources of credentials are not available:
    When the report server connects to a data source that does not require credentials. Examples of data sources that might not require credentials include XML documents and some client-side database applications.
    When the report server connects to another server to retrieve external image files or other resources that are referenced in a report.
    Execution Account (SSRS Native Mode)
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
    Regards

    Hi StevenDE2012,
    Based on the error message "The report server has encountered a configuration error. Logon failed for the unattended execution account. (rsServerConfigurationError)", it seems that the Unattended Execution Account settings in Reporting Services
    Configuration is not correct.
    Reporting Services provides a special account that is used for unattended report processing and for sending connection requests across the network. Unattended report processing refers to any report execution process that is triggered by an event rather than
    a user request. The report server uses the unattended report processing account to log on to the computer that hosts the external data source. This account is necessary because the credentials of the Report Server service account are never used to connect
    to other computers. To configure the account, please refer to the following steps:
    Start the Reporting Services Configuration tool and connect to the report server instance you want to configure.
    On the Execution Account page, select Specify an execution account.
    Type the account and password, retype the password, and then click Apply.
    In addition, please verify you have access to the Report Server database by following steps:
    Go to SQL Server Reporting Services Configuration Manager, make sure the configuration is correct.
    Go to Database, Verify that you can connect to the database.
    Make sure you are granted public and RSExecRole roles.
    Reference:
    Configure the Unattended Execution Account
    Configure a Report Server Database Connection
    If the problem is unresolved, i would appreciate it if you could give us detailed error log, it will help us move more quickly toward a solution.

  • Using my Web.Mail account with demon (THUS). I can NOT login using Firefox but I CAN with (choke) Internet Explorer. The login names and passwords ARE correct.

    Initially, the Demon support desk asked me to reset all my browsing history which did nothing.
    I tried Internet Explorer (7.0.5730.11) and this too failed initially but after several tries, I managed to log in and collect my mails.
    I then logged out and tried Firefox, which failed (Incorrect log in name or password).
    I immediately tried IE again and got in first time.
    In Firefox (TOOLS, OPTIONS, SECURITY, EXCEPTIONS), I set web.mail.demon.net to permit the site any access that might have been denied.
    The user name and password ARE correct (that would be too easy) but Firefox seems not to send one of these correctly ??? or is not sending something I.E. does.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • "Cannot login. Make sure the name and password are correct."

    I've just created a new iAS6 SP4 instance on a new machine (new local LDAP, SPARC Solaris8). But when I startup a ksvradmin tool I get the msg: "Cannot login. Make sure the name and password are correct."... and I cannot access to admin my new instance :-(. I don't understand about what user and what pw it tell me. I did this instalaltion on other machine by the same way but without any problem. On my other machine I don't have to identificate me when I use the ksvradmin tool.

    Sorry I wasn't being very clear either.  I was assuming that you were trying to follow option 2 from Joe D's post on 3-24-2004.  Once you know what environment variables have changed you can go the control panel to set them.  Some of them will may be new variables that you will need to define.  Others may already exists in which case you want to append to them.
    The other option is as Joe D said, which is to run VCVARS32.bat before you start Xmath.  You could even make a batch file such that instead of starting xmath.bat directly you call your own batch file (.bat).  This batch file would have two lines.  One to run VCVARS32.bat and the second to run XMATH.bat.  If you are not familiar with batch files there are a lot of resources on the web about them.  In this case all you would need is:
    <path to vcvars32.bat>\vcvars32.bat
    "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MATRIXx\bin\xmath.bat"  -v 71.6
    The -v 71.6 is optional.  it specifies to specifically open version 7.1.6.  If you leave it off the newest version will be opened.

  • "...not a valid Photoshop document" error when opening Mac cc file on PC

    I get a "Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop document." error message whenever I try to open up a PSD file created on a Mac using Photoshop CC on my PC using CC. Other people have been able to open the file from the same location, so the files aren't corrupted. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I know this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to share my experience and solution in case anyone else runs into this.
    The other day, I spent many hours editing some photos for a client. I saved them all and closed Photoshop. When I tried to open the .PSDs, they all came up with this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error. I was freaking out. I could see the thunmbnails and previews with the MacOS Finder and could see the images just fine in Lightroom, but couldn't open them in Photoshop CC.
    Finally, I remembered that these were NOT supposed to be .psd files! They were supposed to be TIFFs. What happened was, when I edited them from within Lightroom into Photoshop, they opened as TIFFs. However, when I did "save as", I wanted to name them similarly to some other files I had. I clicked on one of the existing files to copy the file name in the Save As dialog to make it easier to name the new file I was saving, but I didn't realize it was changing the file extention from ".tif" to ".psd" as well. The older MacOS (version 9 and earlier) didn't rely on file extensions fo identifying file types, so it didn't hit me right away that this would be the problem. When I changed the incorrect .psd file extension to .tiff, the files opened in Photoshop just fine.
    SO... if you run into this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error, try figuring out if it's actually another file type (.jpg, .tif, .png, etc) by either getting the file info from another program or just experimenting with different file extensions. Chances are good that your file isn't actually corrupt, but just named improperly!

  • Not a valid Win32 application error when starting javahost

    Hi,
    I am getting the error below. I have searched this forum and the web and found some mentions of it here and there, but no solutions (by the way I am not using MS IIS).
    OBI EE is installed on Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition with Service Pack 2. Everything else (BI Server, presentation services and OC4J instance) is working fine.
    Any help on how to solve this would be much appreciated!

    Just found the solution for it. I had to "install" a 32 bit JRE and use it to run the java host.
    In fact I didn't install the JRE, I just copied its full folder structure from a 32 bit machine to the 64 bit machine and pointed JavaHome in the instanceconfig.xml to there.
    All is working well and everybody is happy now, however I am still confused... as I said, the OC4J is running fine with a 64 bit JRE, why the java host needs a 32 bit one? Do you think something went wrong in the installation or that is how things are?

  • ITunesminiplayer.Resources is not a valid file name

    I cannot install iTunes 8 because I continued to get this 'miniplayer" error message. I also tried removing the iTunes software that did take hold, but becuase of that file iTunesminiplayer.Resources, I cannot remove the program to install an older version. Any ideas before I sell my iPod on eBay because it's useless to me thanks to iTunes Version 8??????
    I have already gone through the following lists of fixes that I found online:
    Windows XP updates
    iPod software updates (why that was reccomended I have no idea)
    Re-installing iTunes (did this three times)

    See if the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will get rid of itunes.
    Then try the install again.

  • When I connect my Mac to my Smart TV I can only get the desktop screen to appear and not what I wish to play on the screen. What am I doing wrong? I know the TV and Mac are connected because of the desktop screen appearing.

    I would appreciate any help anyone can provide.  I need to know how to get what I wish to watch on the TV, such as Netflix, and not just the desktop screen.  Thank you

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
    In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.
