Can't use short URL

I tried the following fix last week after I kept getting publishing error messages and at first it seemed to work, but even after I deleted it in iWeb, the test page was coming up as the first page. I found it in a folder on my iDisk and deleted the test page there. My problem now is that my Website is only accessible from the longer URL. If I use http://web.mac.com/rksmelser all that comes up is a message that the page cannot be displayed. It is accessible from http://web.mac.com/rksmelser/iWeb/randykaty That wouldn't be such a huge problem, but we are now in America on a reporting trip and we have had brochures printed with the shorter link. Any ideas? I am afraid of messing the situation up more. I am still having problems with uploading changes, but right now I would be satisfied with being able to use the shorter URL.
This is what I followed to fix my problem:
Thanks for any help!
Hi geebee - bit long winded but this is the full fix
that I wrote up for someone else - it worked for them
so good luck.
1. To create a new login, open system preference
folder and open accounts. Unlock by clicking on the
padlock icon. Now click on the plus icon which will
allow you to create a new login name and password.
Tick allow user to administer computer. Lock the
padlock again and close window.
2. Go to apple logo top left of screen and logoff
your username - you will be prompted shortly with
choice of logins and choose the new one - you get a
fresh screen which looks like when you first switched
on the mac. You can test iweb here by publishing any
old template to see if it works. It should do.
Assuming all is ok, this next is how to publish your
existing site.
3. Go back to your normal login. Find the domain file
and copy it to dvd - domain file can be found as
follows: open finder > click on house icon (yourname)
click on library >click on application support
click on iweb and here you will find domain file -
copy it.
4. Log out and log on to new login again - find
domain file in this system and delete it then in its
place put your copy domain file from the dvd. When
you open iweb in this system you should see your web
files and hopefully you should now be able to publish
them. This is where I succeeded.
5. If successful I have since discovered that you can
do the reverse - ie. delete the domain file from your
main login - copy domain file from your new login and
put it back in the original system. I found this
shook off whatever the problem was. I have also
discovered since that I seem to have lost some
functionality in that the slide shows don't seem to
work now so I guess I might have to rebuild some of
the pages - but the important thing is it will now
publish.
Hope you can follow this and hope you have the
success I had. Let me know if there is anything else
I can help with, and let me know if it works.

I'm sure I had used "Publish All" when this problem started last week, but I just tried it again and it seems to be working now! Yesterday when I re-published I just clicked on the link that comes up in the pop-up box and it wasn't working, but today it worked!
Thanks for helping me not give up.

  • Navigation using Short URLs

    Hi,
    I need to navigate from one page to another using short urls. I have a page P1 with iView V1 in it. I have another page P2. The hierarchy is as folllows:
    Role R1
    ..|__ page P1
    ........ |__ iView V1
    ..|__ page P2
    By clicking on a link in iView V1, i need to navigate to page P2 using short urls.
    I am passing the long url of page P2 (ROLES://portal_content/.../roleR1/pageP2...) as a iView property to V1.
    Can someone provide the code as to how to retrieve the short url(hashed valued) from the long url and how to navigate to page P2.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Melwyn.

    Hi Romano,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I tried the code snippet you gave me.
    However the method getNavigationNodeHashedName() is not appearing in the list of methods.
    I am only able to see the methods getInitialNodes(), getFirstNode(), getNode(), getNodes() and getNodeByQuickLink().
    Following is my import statement.
    import com.sapportals.portal.navigation.INavigationService;
    The jars that i am using are com.sap.portal.navigation.api_service_api.jar and com.sap.portal.navigation.service_api.jar.

  • Can I use short commands in CCNA exam

    Can I use short commands in CCNA exam
    for example
    “conf t” instead of “configure terminal”

    Sim questions are always answered by configuring
    something!
    The Exam Engine grades the running config, not the
    startup config
    Before exam day …
    Practice as much as you can (real gear, simulators, sample
    tests, read every configuration in books, repeat labs while in
    class, etc.)
    Use multiple sources for practice/review of configurations
    Exam day …
    Do what you can—partial credit!!!
    Start with “show running-config”
    There are no style points!
    You can use the short version of commands on the exam.

  • Can't use JDBC URL for multiple LDAPs

    ColdFusion 8,0,1,195765 Enterprise (Trial)
    We use Oracle OID (LDAP) instead of tnsnames.ora to resolve database connection strings. This is how I specify one LDAP JDBC URL. On the CF admin page, Server Settings, Java and JVM, ColdFusion Class Path is set to C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jar. Under Data & Services, Data Sources, create a new source. Set JDBC URL to
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldap://mdaoid1.mycompany.com:389/mdad2,cn=OracleContext,dc=mycompany,dc= com
    where mdaoid1 is one of the two Oracle OID servers that resolve connection strings, and mdad2 is an entry in the two OID's sync'ed to each other. That works.
    According to many sources based on Google search for "space separated LDAP URLs", I should be able to add another LDAP server separated by space. Now I append " ldap://mdaoid2.mycompany.com:389/mdad2,cn=OracleContext,dc=mycompany,dc=com" (no quotes, added to indicate leading space) to that string. Upon clicking Submit, I get
    Connection verification failed for data source: orcl10g3
    java.sql.SQLException: For input string: "389 ldap:"
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: For input string: "389 ldap:"
    (orcl10g3 is the CF data source name I'm creating) Some say I need to replace space with %20 in the double LDAP URL. With %20, I get error
    Connection verification failed for data source: orcl10g3
    java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: JNDI Package failurejavax.naming.InvalidNameException: Invalid name: mdad2,cn=OracleContext,dc=mycompany,dc=com ldap://mdaoid2.mycompany.com:389

    The message above was posted by me two years ago and was brought to my attention today. Here's a short update: The network team added a load balancer mdaoid in front of, and resolved to, mdaoid1 and mdaoid2 (in round-robin fashion). The problem described in this thread is bypassed because the JDBC URL can simply use one-OID format, in which mdaoid is used as the LDAP server.

  • How CAn I Use a URL variable in Flex App

    Let say the link to a web page embedding a flex 2.0 app is

  • I uploaded a mp4, but I can't use the URL in a HTML video-tag

    I uploaded a mp4 video via the portal to my trial version Azure account.  I then published it.  I then encoded it.  This produced an output file.  I then published that output file.  Then I copied the URL, and tried to play it in
    my browser by pasting it in the address bar.  I got an error that I can't explain - can you?:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    -<Error><Code>AuthenticationFailed</Code><Message>Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature. RequestId:1190a24a-860d-4c26-9948-6334393e4e9a Time:2013-10-07T19:41:29.5702692Z</Message><AuthenticationErrorDetail>Signature fields not well formed.</AuthenticationErrorDetail></Error>

    I found out what is happening.  When my website asks the user for his URL, which can be a YouTube URL, or a URL of a video / audio on a server, it checks that the URL is valid, and there really is a video or audio at that address.   This does
    not work with Azure. 
    Public Function UrlExists(ByVal url As String, ByRef Explanation As String) As Boolean
    Dim URLReq As HttpWebRequest
    Dim URLRes As HttpWebResponse
    Explanation = ""
    Try
    URLReq = CType(WebRequest.Create(url), HttpWebRequest)
    URLRes = CType(URLReq.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
    If (URLRes.StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK) Then
    Return True
    End If
    Catch ex As Exception
    Explanation = ex.Message
    Return False
    End Try
    Return (False)
    End Function
    The code gives the (403) forbidden error in that case. I can suppress this test whenever the input is an Azure URL, but it does raise a question - is there any way to test that the azure URL that the user is using is real?
    On another topic, my website also plays audio mp3 files, but Azure Media Services doesn't seem to be able to cope with those.
    Thanks,

  • How can I use custom urls for my clouds?

    Currently my clouds are [cloudname].adobecqcloud.com, but how do I redirect or point them to [mysite].com?  Or say, for my development cloud, how would I point it to dev.[mysite].com?  I need to be able to control this ASAP.  Thank you for your help.

    Hi,
    You have the choice between 2 topologies when creating your AWS account in Cloud Manager:
    1) Development/Testing
    2) Staging/Production
    In order to preserve your DNS record from changing and have it always pointing to your site, you need to use the Staging/Production topology that includes an ELB in front of the Dispatcher instance(s). In this scenario, you need to point your DNS CNAME record to the DNS name associated with the ELB, that you can retrieve from the AWS console (will be added to Cloud Manager UI soon). Even when you pause/start your cloud, the ELB remains up and running, therefore after restarting your cloud the mapping of your DNS CNAME record to the ELB DNS name will be functional with no delay.
    Using the Development/Testing topology, every time you pause/restart the cloud from Cloud Manager, the IP address of the instances change because it is using dynamic IPs. Therefore, even if you point your DNS CNAME record to the name of the instance (ex: mysite.com pointing to mysite.adobecqcloud.com), it will take some time for the new DNS/IP mapping (mysite.adobecqcloud.com / new IP address of Dispatcher) to propagate. Note: there is no ELB configured for this topology.
    The main reason for using this method is to eliminate the need for using EIP address (static IP address) when it's not really necessary and because they are hard to get from Amazon. But it's also for not paying for EIP address when they are not used (cloud is paused/stopped).
    Hope this helps answer your question.

  • I want to create home page for my application with short URL

    I want to create home page for my application with short URL
    as when I want user to use my application user must go to URL like this

    I want shorter URL for my application not to write full path .
    thanks in advance.

    Well,
    it's up to you. The first part (Mcit-Project-ViewController-context-root) is the context root which you define in the view controller project. 'faces' is the name the servlet filter reacts on. You can't omit it but shorten it in web.xml. The rest is your directory structure. I'm not sure how to shorten this other as to move the jspx files back into the web root folder.
    By the way an ADF faces app never uses the .jspx at the end of the url. If you specify '.jspx', you only render the page but don't start the work flow.

  • Missing Short URLs..........!!

    In an attempt to configure and use Short URLs for my custom roles, even after double checking the settings for Short Urls from within System Administration --> Navigation --> Short Urls. Short URLs for the roles are not to be found or are not being generated !!
    1. Is there a way I can manually create or generate short URLs for sspecific roles,pages or iViews ? or
    2. Am i missing some thing in the configuration ?

    Enable/Disable Short URLs: When the short URL feature is enabled, all navigation URLs sent to the server are in short form. These URLs can be seen when, for example, adding a page to browser favorites.
    In order to use the Short URL's you need to
    1. Set the "Use Short URLs" property to "TRUE". This is done from System Administration -> Navigation -> Short URL's
    2. View the iViews atleast once from the portal, so that a short URL is generated before you can use the Short URL.

  • Problem in Using an URL in Exit Plug (NW 2004s SP12)

    Hi,
    I have a Webdynpro application to specify the terms and conditions for the users when they login to the portal for the first time.
    Upon Accepting the terms by the user, i used to loggoff the user and will redirect to the portal logon page again to relogin. (This was a requirment )
    I was using an exit plug with the URL pointing to loggoff.jsp which invalidates the session and redirect to the portal login page again. This was working fine in NW 2004.
    The code used to call the exit plug in the Window Interface view is,
    <b>wdThis.wdGetTermsandConditionsWindowInterfaceViewController().wdFirePlugToPortal("/globalportal/web/logoff.jsp");</b>
    When we upgarded into 2004s SP12 i am getting the folllowing error when firing the exit plug with the URL.
    <b>"The Exit Plug can not use an URL when used in Portal, use Portal Navigation instead"</b>
    We tried portal navigation as well, but seems that will work with PCD Objects only, where we need to redirect to the URL(logoff.jsp).
    I tried the HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() as well, but the control remains in the TermsandConditions view only.
    <b>Code Used:
    WebCallback  webcallback = new WebCallback();
    HttpServletResponse response= webcallback.getResponse();
    response.sendRedirect(URL);</b>
    Please let me know if somebody faced this issue and the work around for this.
    My requirement is that upon clicking on the Accept button, i need to logoff the user by calling logoff.jsp will be destroy
    the session and redirect to portal login page.
    Please let me know the work around to call the URL in the view.
    Appreciate your reply.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Sekar

    Hi
    Try
    WDClientUser.forceLogoffClientUser(null);
    url - the URL of the page that is shown to the user after logoff was done. If the parameter is null, the redirect is done to the "LogoffURL" URL that can be specified in the application properties. If this URL is also not defined, a redirect to a Web Dynpro internal logoff page is done.
    So you may either accept default logoff-page (just text "Web Dynpro application terminated. Good bye!" or provide your own page via application properties).
    Next, it is impossible to just log-off to auth screen. It is necessary to set as log-off URL some application that requires authentication also.
    This way WD will first log-off user, then shows auth-screen and then login him again to the target application.
    So try the following:
    In NW IDE open your application properties, and add standard property "log-off URL", for example "/useradmin/userAdminServlet?userProfileView";

  • OpenerLink - url ends with ampersand.  can't use style class...

    hello. i am using openerLink to link to communities. i also want to apply a style class to the link text. however the url that is generated ends with an ampersand. consequently, it ignores the style class. the href is shown below.
    href="http://hera:8080/portal/server.pt?space=Opener&control=OpenObject&cached=true&parentname=Gateway&parentid=None&in_hi_ClassID=512&in_hi_userid=2&in_hi_ObjectID=209&in_hi_OpenerMode=2&" class="bulletTextLink2" border="0"
    when i remove the ampersand, it works perfectly (it uses the style).
    what is the solution? obviously i don't have direct control over the generation of the href. can i append something to the url so that it doesn't end in an ampersand?

  • Migrating to Sharepoint 2013 from 2010 - Can you use the same URL for the Web Application without affecting the 2010 environment?

    Hi,
    I am currently trying to migrate our SharePoint 2010 environment to SharePoint 2013. The first thing I'm doing is creating a 2013 development environment to verify that this migration goes smoothly. I'm also doing this so that we will have a testing environment
    after the upgrade to 2013 is complete. 
    So here is my question: I have a 3 tier farm including; 1 app server, 1 wfe, and 1 sql server. I have made a copy of our SharePoint 2010 database and installed that on our sql server 2012 sever (This new environment is on 3 completely separate servers from
    our 2010 environment). I have also installed the prereqs and configured SharePoint 2013 on the App server and wfe servers, as well as configuring the necessary service applications (I have created a completely new 2013 database where I will migrate my 2010
    database content when I'm ready).
    I am now at the point where I need to create a new web application on the 2013 app server, where I will be migrating the copied 2010 database.  (Also note that we have a 2010 development site called https://[email protected])
    When I go to create a new web application in our 2013 dev environment, can I use the same url (https://[email protected]) to create this web app, or will this screw up our current 2010 dev environment?
    I'm new to SharePoint migrations, so I apologize if this is a stupid question.
    Thanks in advance for any insight you can share on this!
    Boe Barlage

    So, what you are recommending is that before I create a web application in my new 2013 environment, I need go into my hosts file on my 2013 app server and alter it to point to my 2013 wfe.
    Then after I do that, then I can create my new web application on my 2013 app server with the same url as my 2010 testing environment
    (https://[email protected]). 
    Then after that I should be able to access my new sharepoint 2013 environment at the same URL (https://[email protected])?
    I must be missing something.
    In your first reply, you told me to alter the host file on my 2010 app server and point it to my 2010
    wfe (I guess I thought it probably already is). You also told me to alter the host file on my 2013 app server and point it to my 2013 wfe. 
    so I am confused on after I do this, what url would I access my 2010 test environment, and what url would
    I access my 2013 test environment?
    I am fine with having my test environment as a different URL until I am totally ready to roll everything over and kill the 2010 site. But I want to make sure that when I migrate my database, none of the site links are broken.
    I also want to make sure that if I proceed this way, I want to be sure that I will be able to modify the URL to what my 2010 environment is (without a lot of headaches) when I am ready to kill the 2010 site.
    Thanks again for your help, it's much appreciated!

  • Can't use down key because it opens automator. Does any one know how to disable this short cut?

    Are you talking about the Down Arrow key? To my knowledge there is no way to use that key as a shortcut for anything. But look in the Keyboard section of System Preferences and the Keyboard shortcut tab.
