C++ Runtime error using LiveCycle Designer

I have been using Adobe Pro 9 for some time, my system is running XP Professional and Service Pack 3. Each time I edit a form which I am adding tables to the form crashes with the runtime error. We had a system upgrade for some unrelated software on the weekend and everything worked fine up to that point.
I continue to save each time I add a section in the table, I have edited the form 5 times now with the same result. The file ends up being corrupt with 0bytes.
Can anyone offer advice on this.
Christine..

Hi Christine,
This is a typical problem in LiveCycle Designer ES (8.2). I have faced this issue several times. Though I do not know the actual reason for this. There are many things responsible for this behaviour.
- Is the form opened for several hours in LiveCycle Designer?
- Have you made repeated copy paste operation of the fields as well as of the Javascript?
- Have you saved the form repeatedly for small changes without doing the "Save As" operation?
- Have you long lines of JavaScript?
Few Suggestions might Help...
- Do not open the LiveCycle Designer for longer duration like more than 4 hours. Save changes. Close it and reopen it.
- Instead of doing the "save" operation do the "Save As" operation. It will also help in reducing the size of the form.
- Avoid Copy pasting of the fields or JavaScript always. While you do it, if you see the XMl Source you will some designer id would be added exponentially.
- Use events intelligently.
Thanks,
Bibhu.

Content of textfields is gone, when using LiveCycle Designer Version 8.2

Hi there,
I´m having a Problem with LiveCycle Designer in Version 8.2 (exactly 8.2.1.4029.1.523496). When It try to open a PDF-document containing an AcroForms-Form with some textfields, I can see all the textfields of the document, but their content (the text) is missing, I only see the empty fields.
When I use LiveCycle Designer Version 8.1 (exactly 8.1.1.3021.1.438934) everthing works fine. The xml-sources produced by the two differnt LiveCycle-versions look different, too.
Is there any known bug or something, which could explain this behaviuor?
Thanx a lot
Chris

Hi Paul,
in the attachment you´ll find the pdf-Document and two xdp-files which I
generated with LiveCycle 8.1 and 8.2. They look pretty different, e.g. in
8.2 all of the

Not that I am aware of ....I assume you mean that when you open the form
in Acrobat the data is gone ...can you send the form and data to
mailto:[email protected] and I will have a look when I get a chance.

Adobe Acrobat aborts when using LiveCycle Designer PDF Preview tab.

Whenever I try to use the PDF preview tab in LiveCycle Designer, Adobe Acrobat aborts. I get the notice that "Adobe Acrobat 8.1 has encoutered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Yadda, yadda, yadda,....." .
The error signature is:

Please increase your Buffer memeory for appalications.
Before you go for a preview. try to kill the exisitign process of adobe reader.
We need to see hte size of the XDP being generated.
If it is over 20 0r 30 MB, we may need to bring it down to 2 - 4 MB.
Again if the problem still persists, Re install the acrobat and try.
Lastly, check if the same problem happens when you use a adobe reader 8.1.3 or 9.4 (stable versions).

I can't seem to edit pdf using XI Pro - says must use LiveCycle Designer (which is supposed to be included in Pro?)

Hi. I am a new user to Acrobat XI Pro, and was trying to make some simple edits to a PDF document. I keep getting a popup that informs me that I must use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form. It is my understanding that LiveCycle is supposed to be part of the Pro suite. How can I edit this document?

But on its website, it says that PDF forms are editable - PDF editor, edit text in PDF files | Adobe Acrobat XI. But I have a file I created with Adobe 8 Pro and it won't let me edit the text. I don't need to do an overhaul, but it gives me an error and says I need LiveCycle. Even the comparison chart online says it has the ability to edit PDF files. Anyone have an idea if there's a feature in the old form that I can change to allow me to edit the text without getting LiveCycle? Bummer that it's not still included. I thought it was.
And try67, what do you mean if I upgraded I may be able to get it? Is that something I should just contact Adobe about to see if it can be added to my software purchase?
Thanks!

Editing Form Fields inside Acrobat? (after using LiveCycle Designer)

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended == Acrobat
LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 == LiveCycle Designer
=========================================
Say I downloaded a new PDF from the interwebs.
I want to add some forms fields so I go to Forms ==> Add or Edit Fields... (inside Acrobat)
Now Acrobat will detect possible places where to add the form fields. I make changes etc. Then I am satisfied with my form fields.
Now say I want to remove a particular object from the PDF, lets take an image as an example.
So I fire up LiveCycle Designer; File ==> New ==> Import a PDF document ==> Create an Interactive Form with a Flowable Layout.
I remove that pesky little object.
In LiveCycle Designer, I save the file as PDF.
I open up Acrobat. I realize I need to make some more changes to some of the Form Fields.
But now instead of "Add or Edit Fields..." option I get "Edit Form in Designer..."
I hate the GUI of LiveCycle Designer --- I had rather edit the form fields from inside Acrobat, as it is easy and fast to change multiple form fields in a few clicks.

Thank you Niall for the above response; Your response gave me an idea which allowed me to remove that line by zooming in to 200%
You know Acrobat detects Form Fields for you.
But many times it makes mistakes, for example in the screenshot below it made the boxes that came with the PDF as text fields instead of check boxes.
The thing is rather than me delete the (form) fields it detected, and start over by making new check boxes, I will not be able to place my new check box in exact locations as Acrobat has done.
When I imported the fields that Acrobat made into LC (by saving the PDF in Acrobat and then opening it with LC) I get option to change the Object Type from Text Field to Check Box when I right click the object.
Is there a similar way to change the Object Type from Text Field to Check Box inside Acrobat? Any suggestions?
===========
I would really like to do it inside Acrobat because then if I have to make some minor changes to some field properties, all my hard work which I did by filling the fields gets deleted, as I am forced to use LC. The text I add to the fields don't get deleted when I edit the field properties inside Acrobat. I don't know why LC decides to delete all the text which is filled out in the form fields even though the PDF is saved in Acrobat before being imported into LC?
Here is the above PDF file with the text boxes:

Again thanks for all your guidance so far.

Hide zeros in a form using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2

How do i hide the zeros in calculated fields?
Some of my fields show the zeros and others do not and i can not figure out why or what the difference is between the fields. They seem to look the same.
I've found a post where it suggests using the validation tab for the field and add certain code but my validation tab is grayed out. Although, that suggestion may have been for the Acrobat product not LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.
Here is a link to the example.pdf of some fields showing zeros and other fields not showing zeros. I don't want any zeros showing incase someone wants to printout the form and fill it in by hand.
http://www.appleriverstatebank.com/erexample.pdf
Thanks!

I finally got it working. The display pattern was set to num{$z,zzz,zz9.99} I added, null{}|zero{}| to the beginning and ended up with
null{}|zero{}|num{$z,zzz,zz9.99} and the zeros went away. On a side note, once i added null{}|zero{}|, the Allow Empty check box and Allow Zero check box became checked.
Tanks for nuttin Danny!
Just kidding, Caddyshack was on the other day...

Runtime error using range table in select query

I have to select tcodes from table tstc, based on the entries in ust12,
the entries in ust12-von and ust12-bis, these contains wild charcters also, and i have to selct all the tcodes from von to bis.
so ia m preparing a range table for the entries in ust12, and querying table tstc, then i am getting a runtime error with following description.
'If the problem occurred because an excessively large table was used
in an IN itab construct, you can use FOR ALL ENTRIES instead.'
but how can i use FOR ALL ENTRIES here, because if von = A* and bis = AB*,then i ahve to read all the entries from AAAA till ABZZ (may be something like this),
is there any way to write this query, with out runtime error.
there are total 15000 entries in ust12, i am preparing range table for 3000 entries each and querying tstc.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Amarender Reddy B

Hi,
first write a select on ust12 based on ust12-von and ust12-bis.
eg: select von bis from ust12 into table gt_ust12
where von LIKE 'A%'
and bis LIKE 'AB%'.
now write another select for tstc for all entries in gt_ust12...
Hope it helps

Pavan

Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE', was
not caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
The call to the function module "BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE" is incorrect:
In the function module interface, you can specify only
fields of a specific type and length under "ORDER_HEADER_INX".
Although the currently specified field
"L_HX" is the correct type, its length is incorrect.

RUNTIME Error using OWB 1.2.5.0.0

I recieve the following error:
MICROSOFT VISUAL C++ RUNTIME LIBRARY
RUNTIME ERROR!
PROGRAM C:\JDK1.1.8\BIN\JAVA.EXE
ABNORMAL PROGRAM TERMINATION
This occurs when I'm using the capture wizard and specifing which MSACCESS I want.
I used OWB this morning to sucessfully load oracle tables from a MS ACCESS database.
I was trying to move on to the next database to convert.
What do I need to check?
Thanks!

Hi,
I figured out the solution.
Make the project use 1.4.1 and also replace the tools.jar file under %JDEV_INSTALL%\jdk\lib
In addition to this I have also changed the "SetJavaHome" environment variable in jdev.conf to use JDK 1.4.1
And everything is working fine and as I wanted.
FYI:
Replace tools.jar on OC4J Standalone(I used OC4J 903) with tools.jar of JDK 1.4.1 and then app can be deployed on OC4J as well.
Hope this helps someone.

- You address a field symbol that was previously reset using
UNASSIGN or that pointed to a local field that no

Runtime error on Oracle Designer

Did you check your exact version against the certification matrix? Designer is really a client tool, not a server tool. My guess is that there are not many versions certified against Windows Server 2003.

I am using NetBeans IDE and have created a database under: Services->Databases-> Java DB->SimpleDBDemo.
I have a database connection in which theres a simple table (called "TABLE1") created which contains the names and ages of two people. I am trying to access the data of these two people.
From what i can figure out i am getting a runtime error. I have downloaded a folder called "Microsoft SQL Driver 2005 JDBC Driver" which contains the "sqljdbc.jar" executable file. I copied the jar file to the library in "Program files->Sun->javadb" and then added the file to the project libraries section i.e. "Project->properties->add JAR/Folder->sqljdbc.jar" in netbeans.
I am still getting the same runtime error. Have i the sqljdbc.jar file added in the wrong place?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Microsoft SQL Driver 2005 JDBC Driver is not the Derby driver.
You need the correct JDBC driver for the database you are using, you can't simply grab the first one you find.

I am having problems migrating an Access 2 database across to Oracle 8i release 8.1.5 on Windows NT SP5 using OMWB 1.2.4.3.0.
During the generation of the source model, the Migration routine halts with the following message :
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error
Program C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\bin\jrew.exe
Abnormal Program Termination
Can anyone help with this one ? Is it related to DAO, and if so, how do I resolve it ?

Access 2000 databases are not supported. Only 2.0, 95 and 97 are supported. You can downgrade the 2000 database to Access 97 if you are not using any 2000 specific features and then use the Workbench. Note that you must have DAO 3.5 installed on the machine where the Workbench is running.

I am using LiveCycle designer in this i am repeatedly receving some"Microsoft Visual C++ Error" msg.

This above Error message will appear when my file size increases, I am not able to integrate my developed PDF froms....Please Help me in this regard and its very important for me to complete my work as soon as possible.
First I will get this below Error Message....
When i click OK on above Error message....It will show that It has stopped working.
And at last it force me close the Designer completely...
Please any one help me in these above mentioned issues....
THANKS.....

Hi radzmar, Actually i am having a Template with some scripting into which i am trying to integrate my dynamic PDF forms which is of more then 5 to 6 pages each but when the size of my template increases to around 2MB those above error message occurs. I am facing these problem even when i unwrap a subform which is having more than 3 -5 pages.
I am not understanding what would be the cause....Please help in resolving this problem.

Runtime error using utl_file package

Hi Friends,
This is the procedure for reading sample data from flat file , but it won't work.
create or replace procedure test_utl_file
is
ftype utl_file.file_type;
ch varchar2(200);
begin
ftype := utl_file.FOPEN('C:\oracle\temp','data.txt,R');
utl_file.get_line(ftype,ch);
dbms_output.put_line(ch);
end;
This code is compiled succesfully , but at runtime it shows an error msg
ORA-29280: invalid directory path
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 33
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 436
ORA-06512: at "SCOTT.TEST_UTL_FILE", line 7
ORA-06512: at line 1
I had entered the directory entry in int.ora file
utl_file_dir=C:\oracle\temp
& i used another way also,
by using alter set utl_file_dir=C:\oracle\temp scope=spfile;
Can anyone help me to resolve this problem.

What database version are you using?
The UTL_FILE_DIR parameter has been deprecated by oracle in favour of direcory objects because of it's security problems.
The correct thing to do is to create a directory object e.g.:
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY mydir AS 'c:\myfiles';
Note: This does not create the directory on the file system. You have to do that yourself and ensure that oracle has permission to read/write to that file system directory.
Then, grant permission to the users who require access e.g....
GRANT READ,WRITE ON DIRECTORY mydir TO myuser;
Then use that directory object inside your FOPEN statement e.g.
fh := UTL_FILE.FOPEN('MYDIR', 'myfile.txt', 'r');
Note: You MUST specify the directory object name in quotes and in UPPER case for this to work as it is a string that is referring to a database object name which will have been stored in uppercase by default.
