Change repository from Network File System to SharePoint

I have a brand new instance of Unifier 10.1, and have configured it to use the "Network File System" as the repository. I have 3 documents added to the library. I would now like to change the repository to point to an instance of SharePoint. The instructions in the Connecting the Content Repository to Primavera Unifier document were followed, using the SharePoint Connector. It was not setup up by me, but I am fairly confident it is setup correctly.
When I attempt to upload a document, a very generic error message is displayed, suggesting I try logging out and back in again. Not very useful. In the logs however, I am getting the following error:
java.lang.Exception: Base path is not set
at com.skire.dm.utils.FileUtils.createTodaysFilePath(FileUtils.java:869)
at com.skire.dm.utils.FileUtils.getTodaysFilePath(FileUtils.java:858)
at com.skire.common.taskdefs.DiskFile.doUpload(DiskFile.java:411)
at com.skire.common.taskdefs.DiskFile.execute(DiskFile.java:168)
at com.skire.webant.WebTask.perform(WebTask.java:93)
Does anyone know what else may need to be configured to switch to using SharePoint as my repository type?
Has anyone attempted to switch repository types after the initial configuration and addition of documents?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HI SamoIPP,
I agree with Alex on analysis and discovery, and also make sure to design the web applications and site collections taking into consideration the size and capacity plan

In Windows Event long I can see the following events logged:
Event 3002, Port Map:
Windows(R) failed a request to register RPC Port Mapper on TCP port 111. RPC Port Mapper cannot start.
Network File System (NFS) clients use RPC Port Mapper (also known as Portmap and Rpcbind) to discover NFS protocols on remote servers. Without RPC Port Mapper, Server for NFS
cannot start and NFS clients cannot access files on this server.
Verify that no other software is registered on TCP port 111, then start Server for NFS manually (which will also start RPC Port Mapper).
Event 7000, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service failed to start due to the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Driver service depends on the Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service which failed to start because of the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS service depends on the Server for NFS Driver service which failed to start because of the following error:
The dependency service or group failed to start.
Based on a technet forum I have already checked and made sure there is no other service running on port 111 (command used is netstat -a -b -o).
Dependent Service Status:
During the installation process “Client for NFS” seems to have gone well and the service started successfully. But the “Server for NFS” failed, when checked for the status of the dependent process “portmap” service failed to start with the WIN32_EXIT_CODE
“31 (0x1f)”. Please find below the query result.

As the EXIT CODE is 31 ( A device attached to the system is not functioning), I have checked device manager and made sure there is no yellow warning shown against any hardware device. Further I am not sure how to proceed and debug this issue.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion on how debug this issue further.

My solution was to run netstat -ano to identify what process was running on port TCP/UDP :111, then with the command tasklist I got PID matching with the task name. Once identified I stopped the process, rebooted and installed
the NFS service. On top of that, before installing NFS services I disabled firewall and antivirus. It worked fine for me. I hope this will be usefull for you. By the way, don't forget to enable all process back!
Have a good one!

Cloned volume gets stuck at boot "Waiting for Network File System"

I've used "Carbon Copy Cloner" many times with success and no problems (v 2.3 , default settings, make destination bootable) as I migrated to larger drives or make backups in advance of a major OS upgrade.
Last time I was successful, I was at OS 10.3.5. I use 3rd drive to boot my Mac, then clone the one non-boot drive to the other. I do the disk repairs & permission repairs as the normal course of this process, before & after. I am now at 10.3.9. I am do this clone in prep to go to 10.4 so I have a good back in the event of later problems.
When I attempt to boot from the newly cloned partition, it goes fine on the boot process until it hangs at the "Waiting for Network File System" step and never gets past there. I've never had this happen before. I retired all the steps, even ran "Diskwarrier", but no change.
I am not trying to run from a remote or network drive, just a 2nd drive in my
G4 from which I have previously been able to boot (until this last clone attempt that is).
I googled the symptoms ""Waiting for Network File System"", found it to be common, but no real answers. Is this one of those annoying UNIX things? Any ideas how to fix / turn-off whatever is hanging the boot up? Thanks in advance!

Hi Kool,
So there seems to be a "speed-bump" around 10.3.9. No wonder I have had the same results with a different tint. I went to Drive Genius to clone this one. Results with that were interesting.
If I did a [Device] clone, it would take and show at start with 'option' key... and work just like my internal with 3 accounts on it... login and proceed like it was internal. If I did a [Volume] clone, it would not show up at start with the 'option' key... I'd have to boot it from System Preferences > Start-up Drive. Once booted, it had no login screen so all the files were accessible. I took the clone of this 3 account PB and tried it on an iBook. Had to boot from System Preferences too, also, all the account were accessible from that machine... implying that anyone who had that drive could get past/into my files that would be secure on my computer, but not on the clone. If I took the [Device] clone and booted from the ibook at start with the option key, it would not get past the login screen... altho the mouse worked and I could click on the name, that was as far as it got, Froze.
So, I have figured, for safety, a [Device] clone is it, as long as the original computer lives. The safety features for login seem to be hardwired in the chip that the clone was made from (The iBook had 2 accounts but not my 3). If safety is not an issue, the [Volume] clone is fine... like moving to a newer OS on the same computer. It would seem from your experimentations that the situations with this 10.3.9 is just a hick-up and is solved in 10.4.3 with CCC v3...
Thanks for your info... I am thinking of going to Tiger, but I am so fond of this Panther...

VI Analyzer "Some VIs and/or tests have been added to or removed from your file system since you last saved this configuration file."

When I run VI analyzer and open our standard config file, the message "Some VIs and/or tests have been added to or removed from your file system since you last saved this configuration file." appears. Upon clicking OK, selecting something to analyze, and moving on to the VI Analyzer - Select Tests dialog, the Tests selection control is completely empty and the Analyze button is greyed out.
I'm runing LabVIEW 2013 on Windows 7, VI analyzer did work before, and I have tried both repairing and uninstalling LabVIEW (then reinstalling) already. If I do not select a config file or try to reset all test configurations, the Tests control remains empty.
Is there any way to reinstate the tests, or fix just the VI Analyzer toolkit?
The only thing that I remember changing since I last ran the analyzer is that I installed DIAdem.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The suggested search (from LV2013) brought me to the 2014 toolkit,
That is unfortunate.
Perhaps the Tools network needs a tweak
But, I had assumed you had your SSP up to date and LabVIEW 2014 installed. The download would have worked then

Choosing a highly-available, networked file system for VM images

What's the consensus here on highly-available, networked file systems for VM disk images?
HA-NFS seems difficult and overly-complicated.
GlusterFS doesn't seem to be well-suited for this task.
Ceph/RADOS seems popular but there isn't much information available.
OCFS2 seem to be suitable but there also isn't much information available.
Eric P.
Truckee, CA

Actually, I still would suggest taking a closer look at what I had mentioned in your other thread:
[Use OCFS2 to Share Local Storage (DAS) Across OVM Compute Nodes|https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2438632&tstart=0]
I still think that this would also solve thus thread. In the end, there is no how-to on how to build that up and you probably will need some help from some experts. I for myself, also didnÄt configure all of that on my own - i left ASM/Cluster part for some contractor to setup and focused on the iscsi-target/initiator setup along with the multipath setup on m VM servers.
Maybe I will do a little write-up, once we get it all sorted out, since we do experience some strage behaviour of our storages boxes, while ASM hammers ob them quite hardly, but I suspect the raid controllers to blame and not the concept… ;)

Client for NFS fails to restart - Event ID: 16387 - Windows(R) failed a request to initialize the Network File System (NFS) redirector

I have seen this issue out there in a few threads but a definitive solution has not been posted by Microsoft that I can find. So here is the simple answer. The long answer why this doesn't work on a default install of MSNFS is going to have to come from
Microsoft and should be in the form of a hotfix.
Problem Description
On boot, Client for NFS starts and remains running. If an attempt is made to restart the service from the MMC or nfsadmin, an error occurs and nfsclnt fails to start.
Event log error:
==================================================================
Log Name:      Application
Source:        NfsClnt
Date:          7/7/2011 2:39:51 PM
Event ID:      16387
Task Category: None
Level:         Error
Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:      myserver
Description:
Windows(R) failed a request to initialize the Network File System (NFS) redirector
<[d:\w7rtm\base\fs\remotefs\nfs\client\nfsclient\service.c:199] : 0: The operation completed successfully.
>.
Client for NFS cannot start.
Windows may be low on system resources. Try increasing available system resources by closing programs, then start Client for NFS manually.
==================================================================
PROBLEM CAUSED BY: When shutting down Client for NFS using the Services GUI, Client for NFS Redirector is not shut down
SOLUTION: Stop NFS Redirector - 'sc stop NfsRdr' - Then start NFS client service - 'nfsadmin start client'
Use 'nfsadmin client stop' to correctly shut down both the Client for NFS service and the Client for NFS Redirector.
'Network File System (NFS) redirector' is actually "Client for NFS Redirector" and not listed as a service even though "Client for NFS" requires it.
Using 'sc', details on the hidden NfsRdr system component can be queried and then used to stop the redirector so that nfsclnt.exe can reload it on start up using the Services GUI.
C:\Windows\System32>sc GetDisplayName NfsRdr
[SC] GetServiceDisplayName SUCCESS
Name = Client for NFS Redirector
C:\Windows\System32>sc qdescription NfsRdr
[SC] QueryServiceConfig2 SUCCESS
SERVICE_NAME: NfsRdr
DESCRIPTION: Kernel-side part of Client for NFS. Enables a Windows based computer to access NFS server shares

EMac won't start up, only gets to "Starting Network File System"

Would appreciate any help. I'm a novice. Have a 4-year-old eMac that offered updates for Quicktime and iTunes. I let it go ahead. Got to a point where it said to close iTunes before continuing update. I did close iTunes and OK'd to continue update. Right away the monitor became shaded it and said to restart. Now when I turn it off and try to restart, it makes the start-up sound and the circle clicks around and then suddenly stops. Then the blue line fills in until it gets to "Starting Network File System" and then becomes shaded again saying to restart. I did some research and tried holding down the option key while powering on. Now I have a Macintosh HD icon with a blue X, as well as a 3/4 circle w/arrow and a straight line arrow. Any help would be very, very much appreciated. Thank you. kcorbett

bjadk,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
If Apple Hardware test is reporting RAM memory errors, no amount of reinstalling, or Disk Warrior, or anything else, will help. The install and repair attempts, sabotaged by bad RAM, would actually corrupt the hard drive worse on each attempt.
Do you recall how much RAM was in the eMac? Did you get RAM size reports from AHT? Check the RAM slots on the eMac by opening the access door on the bottom (see eMac - Do-It-Yourself). If there are two DIMMS, pull the one in DIMM slot 1 (that'll be the one on the top if I recall correctly). Removing the bad RAM may leave you with too little RAM to actually run the eMac; you can check your eMac model and use that info to order good RAM from Crucial.
Yet another potential problem comes to mind. If the Mac is three years old and hasn't been used much, has it been largely turned off and either unplugged, or plugged into a surge protector that was itself turned off? It the Mac hasn't been able to draw a trickle current while nominally turned off, the PRAM battery could be drained, which can also interfere with starting up and using the computer. You can use a voltmeter to check the battery while in the battery holder and replace it if it's more than 0.1v below the nominal 3.6v value.
When AHT gives the RAM a clean bill, use your OS X Install disc to boot the computer and again try Repair Disk and/or use single-use rmode to run fsck (per Using Disk Utility and fsck). IF Repair Disk/fsck report making repairs, repeat that step until it either reports no problems found or unable to repair, since one directory error can mask other errors. As already mentioned, DiskWarrior has an excellent track record of making repairs where Disk Utility could not.
If Disk Utility or Disk Warrior repair the disk, you can proceed to an Archive and Install (you'll need 5 GB or so free space on the hard drive to do an A&I; if space is tight, use the Installer options to select language support for only the language(s) you actually use).
If no utility can repair the disk, an Erase & Install with the one-pass write zeros option selected could recover use of the drive, by forcing the drive to update it's record of bad disk sectors to avoid. This would lose any data and programs for which you don't have a backup or install discs, through.

HT203210 Where is the show popup from network on System Preferences?

Where is the show popup from network on System Preferences?
Was checking Airport support for PPPoE disconnected message which directd me to Show Popup on network in System preferences and I had 1 option. Show all.
Would love additional info on why I keep getting this message - Could not find a PPPoE server. Which interrupts wifi service to Network.

PPPoE is a protocol used to authenticate a user prior to gaining Internet access used by certain ISPs. Typically it is used for DSL Internet service. PPPoE would be configured on the device that is directly connected to the DSL modem. This could be a router or computer.
Do you currently have or previously had DSL Internet service? What is the make & model of the device that you currently have the AirPort Extreme base station connected to by Ethernet? Which exact model of the Extreme do you have?

How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system

Hi Firends,
How to get folder(directory path only not file path) from local file system , whenevr i will click on browse button.
Please give reply for this one , if anybody knows.
Thanks,
Anderson.

Hi Anderson,
if you're using flash.filesystem.FileReference - then it is run in black box - except of filename, size and creation data (and few other properties available after some operation succeeded). This is part of security features in Flash runtime (described in header section):
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/FileReference .html
This for example implies that user can download a content to local machine - but that content cannot be loaded back into Flash runtime. For this you would need either Air runtime flash.filesystem.File:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filesystem/File.h tml
(so you would created Air runtime based application: desktop or mobile but not web, even as standalone project) or you would need one of 3rd party tools that add file access/file information features to standard Flash runtime applications converted to standalone native applications.
hth,
kind regards,
Peter

How to create a network file system on a small ethernet lan?

Hi there,
Have been wondering about creating a network file system on a small ethernet based lan. i don't know anything about how you do this but figure you need more than a normal external hardrive Many thanks for any responses

Hi there,
As far as I understand, you would like to be able to have a central location that all your computers can access and store files?
If this is the case, and you want to use your lan router, there are many products that do such a thing. These devices are known as "Network Attached Storages" or NAS. They plug into your router like your computers do, and then allow your computers to access hard drives stored in the devices.
The following link shows some NAS units on the tech shopping site Newegg.

Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any more questions!

Network file system

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how can I create a program that will allow me to share file between multiple operating systems like windows and linux in a network.Basically I want to create a network file system browser between heterogeneous file systems.

http://jcifs.samba.org/ May help with Window's shares.
http://j-ftp.sourceforge.net/ This is a client that supports lots of protocols and is GPL'ed so you can look at the source if you need but be sure you understand the license first.
I'm not sure if you can get something that works with java.io.File but across the network. I'm pretty sure you need to use something provided by your OS for that. It'd be great if someone proved me wrong on this.

Can a BIP report be deliveredto local or network file system

We have OBIEE 10.1.3.4 installed on Linux Redhat 5.2. We have some reports on BI Publisher and want to save the report to a local or network file system. Not sure if it is possible as save to file system is no list as an option in BIP Admin Delivery list.
Please help!

Thank you for help. But is it a way to save the whole report to one file instead split it according to a key.
One way I can think of is to create a dummy key of a single value. Is there a BIP built-in way doing this?
