CDE and Solaris 8 login problems

When I attempt to connect to my Sun Ultra80 server running Solaris 8 using Exceed, the CDE login will not display. When I check /var/dt/Xerrors, I see the error message:
Server open attempt #0 failed for ws001, giving up
Is there a CDE configuration that I am missing?

Solaris Express Login Problem

Hello,
I'm a complete rookie with Sun & Solaris, so any help someone could offer would be greatly appreciated!
I have a SunBlade 1500 (SPARC) that I purchased from university surplus. The hard drive was wiped, so I needed to install an OS. I don't have a DVD burner, so I downloaded Solaris Express Text Install, because it was the only OS I could find that would work with SPARC & could be burned to CD. Installation went fine, & the hard drive now boots to the disk. But here is my problem:
At bootup, I am asked to login, and I don't know what to do. During install, I had to make several entries for passwords & such. The "computer name" is solaris, and the "root password" is sunblade1500. I entered Bugs Bunny for "real name", Bugs for "user name", and bugs123 for "user password". I've tried all different combinations of these when prompted for login, but the only ones that seem to work and not give a "login incorrect" message are when I use either "Bugs" or "Bugs Bunny" as login, and "bugs123" as password.
Here is verbatim text of what the screen shows when I try to login with these entries:
solaris console login: Bugs
Password: bugs123
Last login: Wed Aug 17 14:06:41 on console
Oracle Corporation SunOS 5.11 snv_151a November 2010
Bugs@solaris:~$
After the last line (Bugs@solaris:~$), it just sits there with a prompt for me to enter something to go further, and I don't know what to enter. I've tried root, boot, startx and none of those work. What am I doing wrong, please? Thank you VERY much!

You are logged in as the user bugs* and the system is sitting at a command-line OS prompt.
... I downloaded Solaris Express Text Install, because it was the only OS I could find that would work with SPARC & could be burned to CD. Installation went fine, & the hard drive now boots to the disk. But here is my problem:
You pulled the text-only distribution.
It's a full UNIX but you won't have a GUI.
The install files for the GUI are too much to fit on a CD.
I think it may be time for you to go buy some books.
You can also consider crawling Oracle's site for Solaris documentation.
Start here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris/overview/index.html
You can also glance at the documentation for your system.

My iChat buddies dont show up and also having login problems.

I am having two problems with my ichat. My buddies dont sign online and I also experience the login problem where it opens and collapses many times and says that I have tried to logon too many times. Please help. I have searched this message board and thus far nothing that I have found has worked

Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443(press return/enter(you might have to tick and untick SSL for 443 to stick)).
Log back in again.

Solaris 10 login problem. need guru's help.

I posted the same question a few days ago. Mor than 150 persons reviewd it. But noone could answer my question. Is there real expert or guru out there to help me out? Here is the question again.
I isntalled solaris 10 on Sun sparc 64 bit machine. I can login as root user through GUI or console. After I created an Oracle user, I only can login as that user from console window. I tried to login from GUI (CED) window, it failed. Anyone know about this, please help me to figure out the reason and the method to fix it. Thanks for your help.

Lenovo Ez Backup and Media Center - Login Problems DE

Hi before, the last two updates y have several problems to login in my device.I'm accesing him with multiple devices (cellphones with android, pc with windows 7, chromecast, and a WDTV) and with all is the same, the conection is refused because de user name or the password is wrong, but i never change it. I dont know how can i do? Anybody can help me? If need more information pleas let me know. The firmware version is 4.1.110.33149 Regards Damy

Hello DamyEr,
Search this manual for the word "reset" to find the procedure to reset your network/security settings:
http://download.lenovo.com/nasupdate/manuals/ezmedia/ezmedia-4.1-en.pdf
If this fails to resolve your issue, I recommend searching some Windows forums for the error you are getting.
It could have something to do with security setting on your OS.

EP Performance Tunning and concurrent user login problems

Hi all.
We have a EP , integrated with Windows AD and SAP R3.
In real situation, there will be 1000 users login in EP in 0.5 hours. And their operation time will be 6-8 hours, connect to R3 or other applications.
Is EP can support such concurrent user login scenario ?
if EP fails, is there some performance monitor tool or performance tunning issue ?

Hi
EP supports this logon load, however it all depends on sizing and architecture! Also the content of the STARTPAGE can be critical (make it "light").
If the portal fails, then often it is only one J2EE server process, which fails - so by having more server-processes will be an easy/minimum form of high availability. A "real" HA solution must be considered if your business will not work without the portal og SAPGUI connections can be used as workaround/fallback in such situations.

Strange and aggravating startup/login problem

I hope I can explain this well enough: My G3 iBook booted and loaded normally this morning, but froze shortly afterward. Upon re-booting, the startup took forever (over 5 minutes) and finally, I was presented with a login screen. I typed in my name and password CORRECTLY, but got the "wiggle" saying it was not accepted. No matter what I do, my correct name and password are not accepted. From an external hard drive, I have run DiskWarrior and checked the iBook with TechToolPro, but no luck.
To make matters worse, the CD-ROM drive in my iBook is on the fritz, so I can't try the old Reset Password from the original system CDs.
Any ideas?
Thanks. .
iBook G3 500Mhz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

The lengthy restart after a forced shutdown/restart is due to a faceless version of Disk Utility. Repair Disk running during the startup process to check for directory damage.
Does the reference to "from an external hard drive" correctly suggest you have a bootable clone? Can you use Disk Utility while booted from the hard drive to check the SMART status of the drive? Do you have Applications/ Utilities/ Netinfo Manager on the external drive (manually resetting the netinfo database is something to attempt only as a last resort).
What versions of Disk Warrior and Tech Tool Pro do you have? For Tiger, I belive DW needs to be at 3.0.3 and TTP at 4.1.2
Can you boot into single user mode and run the Unix file system check utility fsck as described in Using Disk Utility and fsck?

Level 15 and Level 10 login problem

I have couple of 2600 routers , I did test for all of them
Router (config )# enable password xxx
Router (config )# enable secret xxx
Router(config)# enable secret level xxxx
I logged in into level 15 (password xxx), then I quit from default level (15) to user mode , then I logged in into level 10 ( password xxx ), then when I quit from level 10 , I was not able to access default level (15) again,,,why ?

Any comment aboutthis issue?

How to handle WebIntelligence Login Problems?-Troubleshooting Guide needed.

Hello experts,
We are using Business Objects XI 3.0 running on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise X64 Edition with Service Pack 2 and
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (64-bit). We are using Windows Active Directory Authentication (Kerberos SSO)
and sometimes can't login to (java) InfoView using the http://<serveraddress>/InfoViewApp/logon.jsp and got either
the message "Unable to logon to infoview ,Please contact your system administator for assistance.Please close your browser before continuing",
or do not get any message and the browser window shows an empty login frame where the User name,Password and Authentication
are not displayed. (The login window doesn't give any idea what the problem is all about..)
In such cases, I try to login using the Web Intelligence Rich Client using the same username&password, and don't experience any problems.
Searching in Windows Event Viewer, can't find any hint. As my final attempt, I re-start the Server Intelligence Agent and Apache Tomcat,
if it still doesn't help, I re-start the operating system and hope the login problem gets solved..
Does anyone have trustful troubleshooting steps or better an official troubleshooting document (couldn't find any)?
Best regards;
Ozcan.

Hi Bashir and wavery,
Thanks for your replies. Do you know where to download the update / packs ? I tried to find them under SAP Support Portal -> Downloads -> Business Objects Downloads, but couldn't find any matching item.
Regards;
Ozcan.

Problems : Starting up with CDE and Opening terminal window in JDS

Hi
I installed Solaris 10 GA on the system having 2.8 GHz Dual Xeon processor with EM64T.
Installation process was fine and completed. But, I have two problems with CDE and JDS.
Firstly, in JDS, the graphical login comes up, works fine. After I login (as root or anyone), sometimes terminal window does not start up correctly. The windows for terminal apprear, but there is no display. Thus, I cannot use the terminal in JDS, while the other menus on launch panel (e.g. StarOffice) seem to work properly.
Secondly, in CDE, I can login, the hourglass pointer appears and changes to arrow pointer. But then, there are no items except only the pointer and wallpaper.
Both problems do not happen at every login time. when the problems happen, I have to reboot (in CDE/JDS) or re-login (in JDS). After some rebooting or re-login, things work fine again.
Can everybody help me?
Thanks

I am not Adobe staff, but I have never heard of an "online upgrade". When I purchased my CS6 upgrade from Adobe, they sent me an email with the serial.

PHP in Solaris 10 and Non-Global Zones: Problem of performance?

Hi friends
We are feeling a poor performance with applications developed with PHP in Solaris 10, with non-global and global zones, while Intel platform (Xeon and Pentium), performance is very good. Difference between both platforms is about 200% aprox, one second in Intel to 9, 12 or 20 seconds in Solaris depending of model.
Our tests were developed in:
1. SF T2000 server Solaris 10 global zone
2. SF T2000 server Solaris 10 non-global zone
3. SF280R server Solaris 10 non-global zone
4. V240 server with 1 GB memory, 1*US III-i 1.0 GHz and Solaris 9 (really this version for test and comparisons)
5. V240 server with 8GB memory, 2*US III-i 1.5Ghz and Solaris 9 (really this version for test and comparisons too)
Intel platforms were:
1. Intel Pentium 4 2GHz 2GB memory, Linux Fedora and PHP 4.4.4
2. Intel Xeon 2 core, 2.33GHz 2GB memory, Linux Fedora and PHP 4.4.3
Versions of products are:
1. Solaris 9 or Solaris 10
2. PHP 4.4.7 downloaded from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
3. Apache 2.0.59
4. MySQL 4.1.15-log
Our php compilation and installation were:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-4.4.7 \
--with-pear \
--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
--with-gettext \
--with-ldap=/usr/local \
--with-iconv \

make
make install
Questions:
Is there any problem of PHP with SunFire T2000 servers or 64-bits platforms?
Is there any flag of PHP would be use to compilarion PHP in 64-bits or multithread?
I wait for any comments or suggestions about our problem with PHP compilation and performance in Solaris 10. Thanks a lot.
Sergio.

I presume you compiled php on the Sun server, was this done using gcc or the Sun One C compiler.
If the latter then you can also use the flag: --enable-nonportable-atomics when you run configure

What's causing these power-up and login problems?

I recently switched from Tiger to Leopard (installed by the repairers) and have encountered some power-up and login problems. Basically, my set up is that the computer automatically logs into a non-admin account, launches a Safari page, and then that's it - after checking the webpage, I logout of that account, into my main account, and work from there.
In Tiger :
A few times quite recently the computer would freeze, either while Safari was launching / opening the webpage, or when I tried to logout. Force Quit didn't work (total freeze) so I would force power-off and switch on again, and things would be fine.
In Leopard, one of the following has begun to happen, about two weeks after I began using it:
• The computer reaches the grey screen with an endlessly rotating gear wheel. (Power off / on again)
• The computer logs in to the account; after selecting 'Log out...' I log out, but instead of giving me the login screen, it logs straight back into that account, and this happens every time I try 'Log out...'. (Use Fast User Switching instead to reach main account, where one or two software glitches prompt a Restart) This has happened twice.
• This morning, the computer reached the blue screen where the pointer appeared - faded - appeared - faded etc endlessly (Power off / on again).
Clearly it is not the System - experiencing problems in both Tiger and Leopard proves that. Nor is it my HD - I've had a new one installed. It must therefore be a setting in my login account, though it's hard to see what : I only use that account for login, and a single launch of Safari, and it's been ok for years.
Should i create another login account and see if that solves the problem? By the way, the repairers did not give me any Leopard install disks, so please don't suggest that method of diagnosis. I only have the original Tiger disks.

2. I don't know what Apple app(s) you refer to? As I said I've upgraded all the free ones, and iLife '06 is working (and I have the disks).
Look in your Applications folder: Any Apple app there, except for the ones you've mentioned. And all the built-in parts of OSX.
3. They told me that I CAN do a full restore from a Time Machine backup (via Disk Utility apparently).
That should tell you something about the quality of their advice.
See: [Mac OS X 10.6 Help Recovering your entire system|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/15638.html].
Or the *Restoring your entire system from a backup* section, towards the bottom of [Mac 101: Time Machine|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427].
Or look up +*Time Machine+* in Mac Help.
Or #14 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
And if there's a problem with your installation of OSX (which seems likely), or the Apple apps, you can't reinstall them, either.
4. Having spent hours and hours getting the machine to work properly (upgrading Mail and sorting out Mail problems, upgrading Safari, re-upgrading iTunes and sorting out problems), I'm not prepared to spend hours and hours doing the whole thing in reverse to restore Tiger, including learning HOW to do that.
Correct; unless you have backups of the Tiger system, that's impractical at best.
So unless anyone has a reasonably simple, straightforward answer as to what this problem might be, it looks like I must live with it.
You have some sort of problem with your Mac and it's not going to get better on it's own. Most likely, it will get worse.
If you haven't, try the things recommended by Dale.
Also try running the +Apple Hardware Test.+ It's on one of the disc(s) that came with your Mac, and is tailored to it's particular hardware. The disk should have +Apple Hardware Test+ and instructions for running it printed in very tiny type.
I sympathize with your situation, but the repair shop violated the Apple license, and put you in an untenable situation. If they won't correct it by supplying the Leopard disc, you really should report them to Apple.
You need to purchase a retail copy of Leopard (not the gray discs that came with another Mac; they won't boot yours). They're not shown on the Apple Store website anymore, and eBay and other sellers get a premium for them, but AppleCare should have them for the original $129.

I downloaded OS X Lion on my iMac and I'm having problems with my computer waking up after hibernating. I can get to the login screen but my mouse will be frozen. The only fix's is a hard reboot. Any help would be great!

Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM.
1. SMC
Read this and follow the instructions for your kind of mac:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
2. PRAM
Follow the procedure below:
1. Power down the machine.
2. Locate the following keys on your keyboard in preparation for Step 4:
command–option–P–R
3. Press the ‘power on’ button.
4. Immediately – and before the grey screen appears – hold down ‘command-option-P-R’ all together.
5. Keep them held down until you’ve heard the start-up chime twice. After you release them you should hear it again, and hopefully your Mac will boot up as it should normally.

Login Problem with opendocument, flash and QaaWS

We have the following task: We have an application, an excelsius flash file in BOE (webI) and want to give the users a hyperlink to go directly to this application (after entering their user an password) on
the bo-login page. The application itself calls some web services (QaaWS) residing also in boe.
Our solution for the hyperlink at moment is to use the openDocument-Command https://xir2.../businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/documentXML.jsp?cmdP1=Applikation01wid*&token=&cmd=askPromptView&cmdBlock=all and it works fine for flash-files,
which don't use web services.
The Application with web services works fine, if we open them in WebI, t.i. they use the web service without prompting for user credentials again. But
the two solutions don't work together, t.i. when i ckick on the link to the application, i get the login page of BOE, after entering my user credentials
the flash file opens and asks for login again.
How will these two things work together? i can imagine two possibilities:
Using a different command (or some other parameters) in the hyperlink
Getting a fix for Xcelius or BOE.
Any suggestions?
At moment, we use Xcelsius 4.5 Version 4.2.5.9 and BO XI R2.

Well, the link didn't solve the problem really, but gave the hint, somehow it should work und the solution is a bit surprising. After omitting the type parameter, it works )), so using the link
http://<insertservername>:8080/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=<insert name of the swf>
the normal login page opens and after entering the user credentials, the flashfile opens without asking user-credentials again.

There are two iMacs connected through same router in my house but one refuses to login to facebook and other logged in sites. local techies are bemused, I have just reinstalled OSX and still have the problem. Login page recycles and no errors reported.

There are two iMacs connected through same router in my house but one refuses to login to facebook and other logged in sites. Local techies are bemused, I have just reinstalled OSX and still have the problem. Login page recycles, I get no further and no errors reported. Safari, Opera and Firefox. Deleted cookies and chain but still no action.

If you have not already done so, read the router's user manual troubleshooting section and/or contact its customer service department/forums.
If still having problems, post back w/details of all you have tried to resolve the problems along w/the troubleshooting solutions that the "local techies" had you try.
