Can only access certain man pages with sudo

I can only access certain man pages with sudo. They aren't accessible as either root or normal user. I can't be a 100% sure but it would appear that the man pages I have problems with are those located in /usr/share/man. I can't see any differences in file or directory permissions with those located in /usr/man. Anyone else having this problem. Or have I commited another noobish mistake.
man pacman is an example.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

the filesystem and bash packages need to be updated after the pacman 3.1 release
if you want immediate results add
UNSET MANPATH to your .bashrc

Since the apps you mentioned require an internet connection try running the connectivity tests > iTunes for Windows: Network Connectivity Tests

Daniel or anyone else, Help on why I can't access certain jsp pages

I have installed the Web Service Portlet Wizard to build my portlets. In particular,
I have created a URL porlet jsp which receives its content from a URL.
This URL that I retrive is an application that I have running on my Weblogic 6.1
Server. I can access the login page, and can logon and do a few things but for
some reason I Can't access certain pages. The pages I can't access are also jsp
pages on the wlserver6.1 server(exactly the same as other ones I can access and
interact with).
The error I receive on the Portal Front end is attached in a word doc. I have
also included in there, a snapshot of the access log for those pages, but I can't
really make out what it is telling me (if anything!).
For one of the pages, that I can't successfully access I get java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
This only happens with 1 of the pages. But trying to access the same page withouth
going thru the portal I get NO errors what so ever.
Please if anyone can give me any information on why I can't access certain pages
via my portal It would be very helpful.
Finally I have included the code of my Portlet which accesses the URL. This is
also included in the word doc.
Thanks

Ramy,
I don't know the Web Service Portlet Wizard too well, but I notice that
login.htm never seems to be found (404 in logs). I would think that the two
warnings below your JSP call (cookies, and portlet state) are your most
likely culprits. If the Web Service Portlet Wizard does not handle cookies
then the portal server will have to continiously reauthenticate. I will
forward your email however and see if I can dig up a better diagnosis. Also,
could you post the stack trace for the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException you
are seeing.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

Can't access all internet pages with new wifi

I just moved and my apartment complex has free Wifi. I can access most web pages but can't open for example fox.com, abc.com. A message says I am not connected to internet. I have to login to the wifi service and I am recognized. I don't know if it is my computer or wifi. Thanks

Im willing to bet its the wifi. Reason being is I have had a similar experience with my old wifi router. I would get a dropped connection and i thought it was my macbook and PC. Turned out it was my router and once i upgraded to a Airport Extreme, everything has been fine and i have not had a single dropped connection. If its in an apartment complex, Im willing to guess they have a normal router from wherever its transmitting from and the router cannot handle the load. Perhaps someone is also trying to access the router not knowing passwords and this causes the router to lag and kick people off. Try bringing your computer to a friends house with wifi and try loading the pages there.
Hope this was a little useful.

How do I print just 1 web page in FF 29 ? With 29 you can only change the first field ( 1 of 5, 2 of 5, 3 of 5, etc. ) That means I can only print all 5 pages,

So I cant seem to print just the 1st of 5 pages. The default setting , 1 of 5, will print all 5 pages. The 2nd field can not be altered, as it could in previous FF versions, to 1 of 1. Therefore, I can only print all 5 pages, 2 through 5, 3 through 5, etc. WTF - I keep wasting print paper. I got the print edit add-on but that doesn't seem to help. I have been through several FF versions and do not like the format of 29.

Actually, with the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/ Print Edit addon], if I click the down arrow I get the old print format options and can do it.

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture. How can I access the Aperture Library on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup? I can only access the application but not the library..

Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

HT1444 Hotmail has been converted to Outlook and now my 10.6.8 version of Snow Leopard doesn't seem to be compatible with Outlook. I can only access Outlook through the mobile option. I have downloaded the latest update for SL but that doesn't seem to hav

Since Hotmail was converted to Outlook I can only access through the Mobile option. I keep getting a message suggesting I upgrade to the latest version of Safari. I tried downloading the most recent upgrade that I could find but the problem is still not solved. How do I fix this very annoying situation?

No problem here on 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.9 - is that the version of Safari you have? If not you can download it here:

or you could try Firefox - make sure you have the latest version of that (21.0)

No scrolling when viewing man pages with Gnome terminal?

Hi all,
I have just installed Oracle Solaris 11 on x86. For a long time I've used Solaris 9 on SPARC. I like the new OS, but I'm having a problem viewing man pages with Gnome terminal. When I view a long man page, e.g., "man newfs", I don't get a functional scroll bar on the right hand side of the window. And although the space bar works to advance the page, when I reach the end, it doesn't return to the command prompt. It just beeps, prints "END", and I can only exit by closing the window. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Suggestions would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Chris Tidy

It does sound like you're using "less" instead of more. When you see the "(END)" prompt you can simply type "q" and it will exit back to the command line prompt making it unnecessary to close the window. See the "less" manual page for more detail on the less command. Under Solaris 9 the paging was done with the "more" command. If you set the PAGER environment variiable to "more" the man page will use more and revert to the behavior you'd be used to with Solaris 9. Less erases the text you've already read when you type that final "q" which is a behavior I don't like. I didn't bother to determine if there is a way to fix that with less, I just went back to more. The choice between "more" and "less" is a personal preference.

Accessing certain web pages

The computer is a Toshiba Satellite P205-6337 running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I can't seem to access certain web pages. One example is I can go to AOl's Homepage with no issues, but the minute I click on anything from the sign-on log-in to an article on the page I get a windows explorer window that states, " Internet Explorer can not open the internet site http://www.aol.com/. And below it "Operation aborted." When I click on OK it then goes back to an Internet Explorer cannot display this page. Thanks in advance.

Satellite P205-S6337
You use Internet Explorer 7 still?
Why do I receive an "Operation aborted" error message when I visit a Web page in Internet Explorer?

Desktop CC app won't install? I can only access apps through AAM. Please help.

I can only access my CC account through the AAM. I'm unable to get the desktop CC app running. I have a full CC membership that was setup last month. I setup 6 other iMacs all with the same specs in my office on separate CC accounts. All other machines have the app but mine doesn't seem to install. Please advise asap, all other forum posts on this subject have not helped resolve the issue.
I'm currently running OSX 10.6.8

Hi steve.mose,
To take advantage of all the great features in the new Creative Cloud desktop apps, customers should upgrade to a newer version of Mac OS X. Some of the new CC apps do not support v10.6 and will not install. Minimum system requirements for each Creative Cloud app can be found on the tech specs page on Adobe.com.
Note that if you are on Mac OS X v10.6, you will have to install products that are compatible with v10.6 via Adobe Application Manager.
The following Creative Cloud apps support Mac OS X v10.6.8 and later:
Extension Manager
Illustrator
InCopy®
InDesign
Adobe Muse™
Products not listed here are not supported on Mac OS X v10.6.
Adobe has performed limited testing on other Creative Cloud desktop apps on Mac OS X v10.6, but these apps are expected to have issues with features and functionality.
Regards,
Romit Sinha

Can only access one web site

I can only access one web site . www.cisco.com. I am connected to the internet via a lynksys DSL Router, I am using dhcp and NAT from the Lynksys note:works fine for 3 other windows based pc's.
when I try to connect to any other site the page Hangs during load and neve displays.
I can ping all of the web sites that do not come up
I am using a SunBlade 100 and did a new install. I tried the install with webstart and had the same result during the install. again I can only open sucessfully www.cisco.com.

Hello!
I am getting this error, but the above fix does not solve the issue, however I do know what has caused it.
I have an edmx file in a WCF webservice which feeds a silverlight app. The edmx is quite complex and a bit fragile, but was working fine up until I introduced our Industry Codes view into the model. The view is basically { ID, ParentID, Name, ... }. In my model I have created an association to itself which describes Children(*)/Parent(0/1) so I have a nice and tidy hierarchical structure. The edmx and the service build without any errors - hurrah! However, when I update the service reference I then get the below error (and a whole load of others as none of the webservice objects exist anymore):
Error 21 Custom tool error: Failed to generate code for the service reference 'WCF_ContactAdmin'. Please check other error and warning messages for details. X:\2008-054 ContactAdmin_Silverlight\Contact2_Admin_Silverlight\Service References\WCF_ContactAdmin\Reference.svcmap 1 1 Contact2_Admin_Silverlight
When I try the fix mentioned in the link above this error disappears, but then so do all the objects in the datamodel, so I cannot continue from there.
Having the hierarchical data objects defined in the EDM will make like so much easier in future, any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you!!

I can access my time capsule from my mac mini at work but my macbook can only access it from my home network. how do i fix this?

I have a Mac Mini and a MacBook, both were configured at home to access the time capsule. I have since moved the mini to work to use there and it has no issues looking up files on the time capsule which remains at home. The macbook whoever can only access the time capsule from within the home network. I can't seem to find what I may have done differently. Can anybody help?
Not sure if your allowed to post two questions, but it's may be related. I find that accessing the files on the time capsule from the mac mini or the macbook is very slow. Accessing the same files from an older HP laptop is as fast as accessing its own hard drive. How can I speed up the accessing of these files from my apple products. One would think they would work fast and the 'windows' computers would take minutes to map the drive each time...
Thanks for any help.

I have since moved the mini to work to use there and it has no issues looking up files on the time capsule which remains at home.
This cannot happen by magic though.. you must have configured the mini to access the TC remotely.. which method are you using, BTMM and iCloud??
The macbook whoever can only access the time capsule from within the home network. I can't seem to find what I may have done differently. Can anybody help?
How is the Macbook configured to access the TC remotely?? If you are trying to use BTMM and iCloud, then it might be a case that with the mini running the connection cannot be done by more than one computer at a time.. this is generally the case although I do not know if that is specifically true of BTMM method. Try turning off the mini and leave it off.. (off not standby)... then reboot the TC when you are at home.. and then try and connect the laptop to the TC the next morning from work. See if it is then able to capture the connection.. if so start up the mini and I suspect it now will not be able to connect.. that will prove that the TC cannot cope with two remote connections.
There also could be another factor in here. If you are accessing the laptop via the same router as the mini is on.. then actually you cannot have two users mount the same files on a TC.. from the same IP address.. as far as the TC is concerned both devices have identical IP, that is the public IP of the work location router.
If you happen to not be using BTMM then the situation is even easier.. you cannot make two different devices connect to the same network resource using the same port. That is the failing of the NAT system.. one device uses the port then it cannot be used by a second device. You will need to do some fancy footwork and use a different port.
Anyhow tell us exactly how you are doing remote access.. otherwise I am just guessing.
Not sure if your allowed to post two questions, but it's may be related. I find that accessing the files on the time capsule from the mac mini or the macbook is very slow.
Are you talking about files you are hosting on the TC?? Not Time Machine backups??
Can you tell me exactly how you are accessing the TC.. please do a test..
Copy a file to the TC and from the TC using the Laptop.. Use a single very large file, eg 1GB movie file.
Give me a read and write speed.. you can use activity monitor to give me an aprox average speed as well as peak.
Do the same test from the same computer with wireless turned off running ethernet.
Then do the tests from the mini.. same ones.. copy large file to and from the TC by ethernet and by wireless.. when using ethernet make sure wireless is off.
I strongly recommend you set IPv6 to link local only for your wireless and ethernet setup in the Mac.
eg
Now do the test from the HP laptop and give me the results from that.
Is the issue wireless only.. ??
Then you might need to spend a bit of time fixing the wireless in the Macs.. you can run wireless diagnostics in Mavericks.

How can i access my old correspondense with old password in Mozilla Thunderbird? How can i check out from my password?

I had my website moved to other hosting. Accordingly, i changed a password, and when i checked in on my computer the first time with a new password, i stupidly checked the box "remember me on this computer", but i lost access to all my old emails that were laying in Thunderbird on my PC. How can i check out from the current password and log in with the old one so that i could access my old correspondense?

'''Pop mail accounts '''can only access the server Inbox.
Messages are downloaded to your computer and stored in the Thunderbird Profile mail account.
Usually, the copy on the server is removed unless you select to 'leave messages on server' in Account Settings..
'Tools' > 'Account Settings' > 'Server Settings' for pop mail account.
These emails are stored on your computer and can be accessed in both 'online' and 'offline' mode.
You would need to make sure you periodically create a backup of these emails.
'''IMAP mail accounts '''see a remote view of any subscribed folder on the server.
Subscribed folders download headers only and when you select to read an email, it is retrieved from the server and stored in a temporary cache to faciltate quick access to reading.
These emails are not stored in your Thunderbird profile folders on your computer, so would not be visible if you changed to 'offline' mode. They are stored on the server.
If you did not synchronise those subscribed folders then a copy was never stored in your Thunderbird profile imap mail account.
As you have modified the IMAP mail account and it is currently accessing the new hosting server, so cannot display anything on a different server, I would leave it alone because it is working just fine.
What you could try is to create a new IMAP mail account with server settings to the old host server using the old password.
File > New > exisitng mail account
Enter name, email address and password
click on 'Continue'
If you do manage to get access, then synchronise the subscribed folders to get a copy downloaded to Thunderbird Profile folders. As those folders are constantly updating to match the server, once you have the emails downloaded, go into 'offline' mode and move them into 'Local Folders'; you will need to make new folders in Local Folders account for those emails.
However, it is possible that you may not get access as that contract has ended. There is no obligation for the old host company to keep your emails if you do not have an account with them. In which case those emails will be lost.
After creating new imap mail account, if you get access do as advised to get emails into Local Folders, once emails are in Local folders you can remove/delete the imap mail account. If it does not work, you can delete the imap mail account.

Can only access 2 computers to wireless at a time

Here goes:
I have 4 computers, 2xp and 2 Vista. My base is Vista. I'm trying to run all 4 wirelessly DCHP and having a fit.
I can get everything to work ie, internet and networking (all comps see all comps) except I can only access
the internet with two at a time.   I've been struggling for a week now and have learned a lot about networking
but can't get this figured out.   I have my wireless connection working on all 4 but I have to disconnect broadband
from one of the working two units in order to connect Broadband to another unit, again, all wirelessly   Thx, Brian.

What is the Model no of the Router...?
You can try changing the Wireless Channel on the router...
For File Sharing on all the computer....Make sure File and Printer Sharing is Enabled...
Also make sure both the computer's are in the same workgroup...
The default workgroup name in Windows Vista has been changed to WORKGROUP. In WindowsXP, the default workgroup name is MSHOME...

Can't access teaming web page

Hi, I've installed teaming 2.1 on a sles11 x64 virtual machine. I've used sun java jdk 1.6.21. After install I start the teaming server but then can't access the web page (I've used port 8080 in the URL). I used default network settings. I believe the mysql database has been created correctly. I think the problem is with Tomcat/java. I've included the output of tail --f catalina.out
/opt/novell/teaming/apache-tomcat-6.0.18/bin/catalina.sh: line 309: /usr/jre/bin/java: No such file or directory
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
the path shown in the first line of this output is not what I specified for java during the installation of teaming (I used /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21). Any help would be greatly appreciated
Lou

Hi Lou,
Have you set an environment var for the JAVA_HOME?
you can set it system wide, create or edit /etc/profile.local, and add:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21
Then reboot the system so the env var gets set globally.
If the site is still not accessible, rerun the Teaming install choosing to reconfigure, double check the JAVA_HOME path set and see if that does the trick.
Cheers,
Willem
