Chromium odd behavior when logging in via lxdm [SOLVED]

Anyone know why chromium looks different when I log in with LXDM? I usually use lightdm.
Lightdm (looks normal):

Have you tried toggling the option for Chromium to use the GTK theme? (if its already in use, switch to Chrome's theming and switch back)

Chromium passwords missing ONLY when logging in via lxdm

Crazy I know but it's true. If I log in via lxdm and from with in chromium: preferences>personal stuff>manage saved passwords both "saved passwords" and "never saved" are blank. If I switch /etc/inittab to use lightdm, telinit 3 && telinit 5 and log in, all passwords are there and populated. WTF?

I have the same problem with chrome. Has anyone found a solution for this? Adding
auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start
to /etc/pam.d/lxdm didn't helped for me.

[Fixed] Can't log in via LXDM 0.4.1-2

Ever since the patch update 0.4.1-3 I haven't been able to log in via LXDM. I skipped a few revisions, but as -7 has been out for a while now, I tried updating again today. Same result. .pac* files have been merged and LXDM itself starts up fine.
Any help here? (Also, which log files should I investigate/do you need to see?)

I am currently experiencing the same issue described here. I try to login and it goes to a blank screen and then immediately goes back out to the login window. It does not matter what desktop I choose.
My lxde.log file does not seem to have anything. Here is the tail end of it:
** Message: start greeter on :0
** Message: greeter 0 session 0x80fb438
** Message: user 0 session 0x80fb438 cmd USER_LIST
** (process:1151): CRITICAL **: QUIT BY SIGNAL
** Message: quit code 0
** Message: exit cb
Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
** Message: free session

I couldn't find anything in the Xorg file. I don't know if this is relevant but slim is doing the same thing.

Odd behavior when duplicating pages

I have run into some odd behavior when duplicating pages.
First I spent many hours trying to acomplish a double trigger effect in which the last trigger opened a large image in a pop up window. Thanks to help from agm 123 and Sachin Hasija see the posts here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5186239#5186239
And the result here: http://ljusa.businesscatalyst.com/stockholm--1.html
I had to do a number of work arounds, but succeeded and will help anyone interested to reproduce this type of effect.
My next step was to recreate this effect for another 50 pages. The best way I have found is to duplicate the first page. This is where it gets weird.
When I create a duplicate and replace the images in the newly created pages (done by changing the fill to the new image) with different ones and save it the changes are effected on the original page, not the clone. No big problem, just switch the names and continue.
The next problem that occurs is that when I go to make further copies a variety of odd behaviors creep in. The biggest problem is a repositioning or resizing of photo frames/containers. The images do not change, just move as the frame resizes. When I try to resize the frame it snaps back to it's larger new size. This is a phenomenon that I have seen in other instances in work with lightboxes and slideshows. It seems that some other unseen element has jumped into the frame with the original frame.
The method I have used to create these pages is as described in the post at: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5186239#5186239
It involves creating a blank composition widget and then placing a composition lightbox widget trigger into the blank hero.
I have already invested more time than I should have on this and would like to keep it simple, yet as I have 50 pages to go I could start from scratch if someone has a better method of doing this.
Suggestions?

Just an update.
I haven't seen the naming problem with duoplicates reoccur. I am however still stuggling with duplicates.
I have a page with 5 image frames linked to images which in turn trigger a lightbox. When I create a duplicate of a page there is always at least one of my image frames that moves and or a link to an image that is dead. The only recourse I have had is to recreate one of the lifgtboxes for each new page I create. With all the formatting this is time consuming.
I have tried copying and pasting the entire page into a blank page, but then there are even more problems.
I have also tried to save my lightbox as a graphic style, but that dooesn't seem to work either.
Please Help! I've got at least 45 more of these pages to replicate1

Odd behavior when using custom Composite/CompositeContext and antialiasing

Hi,
I created a custom Composite/CompositeContext class and when I use it with antialiasing it causes a black bar to appear. I seems it has nothing to do with the compose() code but just that fact that I set my own Composite object. The submitted code will show you what I mean. There are 3 check boxes 1) allows to use the custom Composite object, 2) allows to ignore the compose() code in the CompositeContext and 3) toggles the antialiasing flag in the rendering hints. When the antialiasing flag is set and the Composite object is used the bar appears regardless of if the compose() method is executed or not. If the Composite object is not used the bar goes away.
The Composite/CompositeContext class performs clipping and gradient paint using a Ellipse2D.Float instance.
a) When the Composite is not used the code does a rectangular fill.
b) When the Composite is used it should clip the rectangular fill to only the inside of a circle and do a gradient merge of background color and current color.
c) If the compose() method is ignored then only the background is painted.
d) When antialiasing is turned on the black bar appears, i) if you ignore the compose() method it remains, ii) if you do not use the Composite object the bar disappears (???)
NOTE: the compose method's code is only for illustration purposes, I know that AlphaComposite, clipping and/or Gradient paint can be used to do what the example does. What I am trying to find out is why the fact of simply using my Composite object with antialiasing will cause the odd behavior. Been trying to figure it out but haven't, any help is appreciated.
Thx.

I got a better version to work as expected. Though there will probably be issues with the transformation to display coordinates as mentioned before. At least figured out some of the kinks of using a custom Composite/CompositeContext object.

Domain users cannot connect to the network folders when logged in via rds remote apps

Hi,
recently I setup an RDS farm for remote apps on server 2012 r2.
all users can connect to the apps published. no problems there.
but when users connect via rds they cannot connect to the networkfolders and cannot store the resultance of there work (docx and xlsx files)
all users are normally connected to the networkfolders using a small login batch file handing down the unc path needed. when I log in as domain admin, also using a login batch, connections are setup correctly. It seems to me to be an security issue on the
rds session host.
how to alter this?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
We use WMI to communicate with the RDSH server. Various issues can cause WMI to deny access or return error codes. Here's a few things you can try:
1. Check if the "TS Web Access Computers" security group on the RDSH server has incorrect permissions in DCOM and/or WMI:
For checking DCOM security settings:
1. Start the Component Services MMC snapin
2. Navigate to Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer
3. Right-click on My Computer and select properties
4. Go to the COM Security tab
5. Under Access Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
7. Under Launch and Activation Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
8. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
For checking WMI security settings:
1. Start the WMI Control MMC snapin
2. Right-click the WMI Control node and select properties
3. Go to the Security tab
4. Navigate to Root->CIMV2->TerminalServices
5. With TerminalServices selected, click the Security button
6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list with Execute Methods, Enable Account, and Remote Enable set to "allow"
2. Verify the RD Session Host server's firewall allows WMI calls.
3. Verify that the RD Connection Broker hasn't lost its trust relationship with the domain.
4. See if non-RDS related WMI calls can be successfully made to the RDSH server. This can help differentiate between a general WMI issue and an issue calling the RDS WMI provider.

Active Directory: Odd behavior when accessing network shares

I'm not very clear on how OS X handles AD integration, but I'm having an odd problem, perhaps someone may know the answer.
AD is bound and working properly.
I am successfully logging in with an AD account that is set to 'mobile' mode.
Two questions:
1. Why is it that when I access a share that I have rights to access, I am prompted for my user name and password? I am already logged in with a domain account and validated by the domain controller. This is not a big problem, but I am curious.
2. Why is it that I am denied access to some shares, and others I can connect to but cannot see their contents, yet logged into a Windows machine with the same AD account, I can access all of them just fine? This one is a big problem.
I'm hoping there are just more things I need to configure to get it to work. Either way, I'm having fun learning all of this.
Thanks,
-Travis

I'm hoping there are just more things I need to configure to get it to work. Either way, I'm having fun learning all of this.
Thanks,

LogOutputStream's behavior when logging

Hi fellow WLS fans!
I'm running WebLogic Server 10.3.5. I have a question regarding expected behavior from weblogic.logging.LogOutputStream. (I assume this class is deprecated these days, but I'm in a legacy situation here.) This is basically what I'm doing:
LogOutputStream logOutputStream = new LogOutputStream("myChannel");
logOutputStream .emergency("myMessage");
When running, the above reference to logOutputStream is shared among many threads. The various threads call emergency(..), and other log methods, on the shared reference to logOutputStream. The log messages produced by each such thread look something like this:
###<2011-12-06 10:28:37> <Debug> <Dana> <myhost.domain.net> <servername1> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '1' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <[email protected]> <> <> <1323163717214> <BEA-000000> <[MyCommandClass][[email protected]]Get USer allowed CUs ms: 43>
It has the thread name in there (ExecuteThread: '1'), along with some other stuff. What I've notice is that many log messages from a specific thread often appears in a cluster in the log files. I.e, many log messages produced by ExecuteThread: '1' appear together in the log file. Is this behavior expected? Is it a result of how LogOutputStream flushes what is written to it? Or is it, in fact, a result of a lack of concurrency in my application? I was expecting more interleaving in my log files, so that perhaps every other line in the log file was written by a separate thread (ExecuteThread: '1', ExecuteThread: '2', ExecuteThread: '3', and so on).
Any input greatly appreciated!

Hi,
Try resetting Safari and emptying the cache and see if that helps.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Also, if you are running Safari in 64 bit mode, try running in 32-bit mode instead. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.

User gets odd behavior when print previewing calendar

User calls with an odd problem.
She is using 32 bit IE 9 with our SP 2010 farm.
She goes to her department calendar. She sees events.
She presses Print Preview. No events are shown on the page.
She tries to export the data to Outlook - it tells her there is too much data.
She calls me.
I look - her default view is running into the resource throttling of the farm. So I try to create a unique view that only shows this week's events.
It works fine for me. Print preview and printing work as well.
When she looks at it in her browser, it works fine.
When she tries to print preview - no events show up on the preview page.
She tries to export from the new view - Outlook gets no events.
She is using IE9, so the IE7 comments in old threads are not relevant.
I set the web part configuration to 12 inches as one conversation suggestions. That doesn't help.
Does anyone else have any ideas of things to try?

When I look at the custom calendar within SharePoint Designer, the page has a ListView Web Part but not an XsltListViewWebPart.
I have tried several times to step through blog entries that describe editing the page, setting the view of the web part, etc. At one point whatever I tried turned the calendar view into a list view ... sigh. I created a new calendar view and made it
the default.
I have asked the user to try the print preview out today to see if it works for her after I created the new view.
The really odd thing about all of this is that at least 2 people don't have the problem with not seeing event data in the print preview.
It _almost_ sounds like some sort of machine specific issue she is having.
I wonder if I should ask the admins to repair Office 2010 on her machine to make certain the DLLs are all working properly.

[Solved] Username case sensitivity when logging in via BASIC authentication

Hi,
Quick question... where the web.xml file defines BASIC authentication for an app, can a change be made somewhere to make the username case INsensitive ?
.. such that passwords remain case sensitive but usernames can be upper/lower regardless of how they are stored (in the database in this case, via DBTableOraDataSourceLoginModule).
I was thinking I could add an upper(supplied_username) function wrapper somewhere before the supplied username / stored username are compared.. what class/file would I need to edit to try that solution?
If not possible.. would form authentication be a better option for case insensitivity, and if so would it be difficult to hookup a custom login form to the DBTableOraDataSourceLoginModule instead of the BASIC login window ?
Thanks..

Hi,
by default all username and password is cases sensitive - no matter how the logon is performed. The DBTableOraDataSourceLoginModule provides an option to handle passwords case insensitive (as explained in the documentation !)

casing
=====
The case-sensitivity when comparing login user names to names in the database. Use sensitive to require case-sensitive comparisons, toupper to convert the login user name to all-uppercase, or tolower to convert the login user name to all-lowercase. (If anything other than these three values is specified, the default value will be used.)
Default: sensitive
Example: toupper

Odd behavior when plugged into itunes

How odd. Even if the other computer is off?
Yep — permanent magnets don't turn off.
The same thing has been noted when certain cell phones are set down on the MBP's wrist rest in the right place.

Odd behavior when exporting to TXT

Post Author: mattlscc
CA Forum: Exporting
http://pixelspotlight.com/problem.docIf you view the document I created above you will noticed that in the preview of my report everything looks as I want it to appear... but once I export the report to TXT format I lose some data and characters. On each line between transactions there is supposed to be a single "^" character, and it shows up in the preview correctly, but when I go to export this report I just get an empty line. The other problem is when I go to export this report, all but the last line of the first transaction are missing. Any ideas on how to fix these two problems? Your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi PC1095,
Are you exporting from the Crystal Reports designer? If so, then you have posted to the wrong forum.
If you are having this issue from the crystalreports.com website, I don't believe we support version 8 reports, but let us know and we can try to look at it.

Cannot connect to server error when logging in via IE.

Same error on different pc, different internet connection. Not my account, another user tried their pc, account, same error.
Status on web site shows all icloud features as green. Any ideas?

Hi Subhadeep!
Think I'm getting closer (Lol). I did as you suggested and changed the web url to http://localhost:8888/Documents/projects/whoknew/. As you suggested I moved the local site to the Documents folder under the sub-folder projects. It is connecting to the server, but now I am getting the requested url cannot be found on the server. Below are screenshots of my current settings.

Strange behavior when performing query

Hi all,
I'm getting some odd behavior when doing different kinds of queries and am hoping someone here can help out. I have a database with continuously updated PDML data (http://www.nbee.org/doku.php?id=netpdl:pdml_specification). I am opening anf querying the database from a seperate application. This appears to work fine for certain types of queries, and fails for other types with error messages that don't seem relevant. Specifically, some queries that use the attribute axis as the last leaf seem to get fouled up. Here are some example queries and the results I get:
First some queries that work:
Query: "string(collection()[1]/packet[1]/proto[1]/field[1]/@size)"
Result:
A valid number
Query: "collection()//proto[@name='geninfo']/field[@name='len']"
Result:
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
Now some queries that don't work:
Query: "collection()//packet/proto/field/@size"
Result:
Output to stdout - "Transaction specified for a non-transactional database"
and an Exception with message - "Error: Invalid argument"
Query: "collection()//proto[@name='geninfo']/field[@name='len']/@name" (notice it's almost identical to above working query except with @name)
Result:
Same as above, an stdout about transactions and an exception about invalid arguments
What I find most interesting is that both errors (the one printed to stdout and the one I get in my exception) don't seem to have anything to do with the problem. I know the transactional stuff isn't messed up because the exact same code works for certain queries. I'm not sure about the "Error: Invalid argument" exception, but it's not very helpful by itself. I'm using the Java library and DBXML version 2.4.16. Anyone have any ideas what's going on?
Thanks,
Dave

As a follow-up, it appears that I just needed to wrap my attributes in the XPath string() function. For example "collection()//packet/proto/field/@size" does not work while "collection()//packet/proto/field/string(@size)" works fine.
I'm still not sure why it's spitting out an error message to stdout about transactions not being enabled when the only real error is with the query, but at least it's working now.

Odd Behavior with Multi-page Forums

I have observed an odd behavior, when navigating multi-page forums.
As an example, I use the Premiere Elements Tips & Tricks sub-forum often, to link to helpful articles. It is, like most, a multi-page forum.
As the order of the articles will change, as new replies are added, I often need to navigate to multiple pages, to find the one that I need. My bookmark opens that forum onto Page 1, which is normal. I then scroll that page, looking for what I want. If it is not there, I will use either the Next, or the Page 2 buttons to move on. As I have scrolled to the bottom of Page 1, the Next (or Page 2) page will open at the bottom, rather than at the top, the first time that I do this. Pages 3, and above, will always open at the top. Also, if I go back to Page 2, it now opens at the top. I only see this, when going from Page 1, to Page 2, and then, only the first time. Odd, but no deal breaker, as I just manually scroll back to the top of Page 2, and then scroll down, looking for a particular article.
I am on Chrome and Win XP-Pro SP-3. I have not yet tried in IE 7 - my latest version.
Has anyone else experienced this little anomaly?
Hunt

Adobe-admin,
Sorry, but I am out of "points... "
Thank you for the input. I just found it slightly odd behavior, and all that it means is a bit of scrolling, now that I know what to expect. In most cases, the average user probably does not go to Page 2 of a forum, but many of us do. If it becomes a pain, I'll just jump quickly to Page 3, and then back to Page 2.
Hey, Adobe never promised to make my life perfect - just better... I can easily live with this, but thought I'd ask, in case it was OE on my part.
Appreciated,
Hunt
