Can't Connect - New Connection

I want to like Contribute CS3, I really do. I spent the money
on the full version. I trusted in Adobe to put out a product that
was as robust as Photoshop and all the rest. So far, it's been
disappointing.
The latest drama is that all of a sudden, Contribute can't
connect to the blog that I've been editing with Contribute for
weeks. When I pulled up the page and clicked the Connect button,
nothing happened. No error message, nothing telling me that the
program couldn't connect. Naturally, I simply deleted the
connection (since editing doesn't actually allow you to edit the
connection) and created a new one.
I chose "Blogs", "Other Blog Servers" and entered the URL of
my blog. The window pops up asking for username and password. I
enter them. The correct protocol and xmlrpc file location are
filled in. I hit Finish. I get the dreaded error message:
Contribute cannot connect to the server. Please check your
connection information or contact your administrator.
Guess what Adobe? I AM THE ADMINISTRATOR. When will software
companies learn that error messages like the above are completely
useless? Okay, so I double check that all my entries are correct.
Everything is spelled correctly. It simply won't connect.
I can login via the web directly to my Wordpress 2.1.3
install. No problem. My internet connection is fine. My Wordpress
installation is fine. Everything works - except Contribute.
This is the last straw. If I can't get this resolved, I'm
going to abandon Contribute CS3 and spread the word about the
inadequacies of it. I can live with the inability to edit the
source code of a post (which means I have to manually edit the post
in Wordpress to add basic things like affiliate link code), but if
I can't even connect to a blog, the whole thing is pointless.
I'm on a Mac, Tiger. Fully updated.
Please advise.

Can you look at your LAN settings on your computer, and see what IP address and default gateway have been allocated.
If you click on "details", you should be able to see what the DNS server is set to.
Also on the home hub, there should be a page showing the Internet status, and what your WAN IP address, default gateway, and DNS servers are.
What are your ADSL stats  showing?
Its possible that there is a configuration error somewhere, or the home hub is faulty. Do you have another router you can try?
Does your order show "completed" when you look on my BT?
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • How Long Can I cache JMS Connection ?

    Hi
    My servlets need to send messages to queues. For speed, I am creating and caching JMS connection and queue session in the servlet's init() method. The questions are
    1) Will the queue session or connection time out after a couple of days , assumimg the servlet never gets unloaded/reloaded in that period?
    2)Is there a way to figure out a connection /session status before trying to create a sender and catching exceptions ?
    Regards
    -m

    Hi,
    The connections do expire after few days hence the easiest way would be to have a double check ....ie.. as you are caching the connection and when ure trying to create a session from the connection keep a try-catch to determine if the connection has expired and if yes then you can create a new connection and cache it again. Now you can use this cached connection to create the sessions .
    Hope this helps

  • ImageUltra Builder 5 - Can't get new computers to connect to repository

    Greetings.  I've recently (finally) upgraded from IUB 3 to IUB 5 and while our older PC's connect to the upgraded repository and image just fine, I can't get newer PC's to even grab an IP in the WinPE environment after booting off a disc (for network distribution).
    I know this is because I need to figure out how to get the latest NIC drivers (for like a T520) into the repository for IUB 5, but I've followed the instructions in the manual for it and no matter what I try I cannot get them loaded properly.
    I found another post in these forums that appeared to address this, but after following the (somewhat muddy) instructions there I still cannot get it working.
    So far I'm placing all my drivers for the T520 etc. into \repositoryshare\drvs_7pe\drivers\preboot\drivers AND \repositoryshare\drvs_7pe\wim\drivers\windows\system32.
    Note that these drivers worked just great on my IUB 3 boot discs.  So I guess I don't have the \repositoryshare\... folder structure setup correctly (?)
    Thanks for the help in advance!

    Make sure firmware is updated to the latest version. You can download it here http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT120N.  Just reset and reconfigure the router. That should fix it.

    For the Internet, you should set up a router on your modem, this router will route the packets to any device on the local area network.
    If you use the iMac as a router, like if you connect the Ethernet cable from your modem to the iMac, then broadcast a Wifi signal, the iMac will have to remain on all the time, at full power. Thus drastically shortening it's lifespand.
    A router is only about $100 or so, offers much better security as it's like a large guard, someone has to hack through router first to get your iMac or other devices.
    If it breaks, you buy another 5 years later for another $100, so your not placing all that always on wear and tear on your expensive iMac.
    Apple's airport routers are pretty good, easy to set up and have automatic firmware updates, plus music sharing etc.
    Set up properly you will be very secure

    By any chance is the Planning application user from an external authentication provider, that is MSAD or LDAP? If it is, there is a problem in Planning when a user changes its DN (Distinguished Name) if that is the Identity Attribute you are using for you external provider. There are something you can do to fix this, such as running the UpdateUsers.cmd in the /Hyperion/HyperionPlanning/Utils folder, this utility will find your existing planning users and see if they have undergone any changes, and update them with the correct DN. Just be careful using this utility, because if a user has been disabled or deleted from you external authentication provider, it will also be removed from you Planning application.
    One thing you can do is go in the HSP_USERS table of you planning application and check the SID value you user app owner has. Check its value with your MSAD or LDAP administrator to validate if the value is correct or not. If incorrect you wont be able to login to you planning app until this is fixed, either by running the updateusers.cmd or by editing the SID value directly on the table.
    Workspace doesn't present this problem with external authentication providers, it automatically detects the new DN or identity attribute of you user each time you login it.

  • Can't create new synchronization connection.

    When i'm trying to add new synchronization connection i get error "Access to the requested resource(s) is denied"
    I'm trying to create connection using farm account, both FIM services and UPS services are running.
    ProfileSynchronizationSetupJob is completed.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Justin,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you created a new synchronization connection in SharePoint 2013.
    Did you provide the Service Account "Create all child objects" permissions in Active Directory? Please check as the followings, and compare the result:
    Open the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in
    On the View menu, click Advanced Features.
    Right-click the domain object, such as "company.com", and then click Properties.
    On the Security tab, if the desired user account is not listed, click Add; if the desired user account is listed, proceed to step 7.
    In the Select Users, Computers, or Groups dialog box, select the desired user account, and then click Add.
    Click OK to return to the Properties dialog box.
    Click the desired user account.
    Make sure the ‘Create all child objects’ is selected in the permissions list.
    Click Apply, and then click OK.
    Close the snap-in.
    In addition, this error happens when you create a new connection using an existing name.

  • How can I get the virtual connection from connection pool?

    Hi, All, I create the connection pool to Database, then call connPool->createConnetion("scoot","tiger") , it creates a new physical connection to database, not from connection pool. I check the busy number of connection in connection pool, it always 0.
    here is my code, please give me advice.Thanks!
    int minConn,maxConn,incrConn;
    minConn = 4;
    maxConn = 5; //nMax;
    incrConn = 1;
    if(env == 0x0)
    env = Environment::createEnvironment(Environment::DEFAULT);
    if (connPool == 0x0)
         connPool = env->createConnectionPool("scott", "tiger","test.oracle.com", minConn, maxConn, incrConn);
    // here already has 4 physical connections to database;
    Connection con,con2,*con3;
    Statement *stmt;
    int nBusy = connPool->getBusyConnections();
    //nBusy = 0     
    try
    con = connPool->createConnection (szUser, szPassword);
    // create a new physical connection to database
    nBusy = connPool->getBusyConnections();
    //nBusy = 0
    con2 = connPool->createConnection ("scott", "tiger");
    nBusy = connPool->getBusyConnections();
    }catch(SQLExecption ex)
    cout<<ex.what();

    What you are creating are virtual connections. They do logons using the already existing connections in the pool. The real connections from the pool are picked only before doing a round-trip and released immediately after completing the round-trip. You can see the busyConnetions higher than 1, only when you are using the connections concurrently.

    An update...
    I downloaded Apple's (rather large!) list of software updates today, and I was finally able to recognize my iPod again. I did a restore using the iPod updater from 06-2006, and all seemed to work OK. (I'm afraid to try the new one again!)
    Then I tried to re-load my music library from iTunes, and got stuck. It froze up after a while and wouldn't go any further.
    When I disconnected my iPod from my computer, I find 2 podcasts and nothing else, though iTunes told me it had transferred 600+ songs. Those 2 podcasts do play fine, and the basic iPod software all seems to be intact.
    So -- anyone get through this connection problem and have any ideas to share??
