G5 will not boot into OSX - stays at a command-line prompt

My G5 will not boot into OS X. I would appreciate and and all advice. Thanks.
What happened:
I had the G5 running one morning, with the Isight camera on, plugged into the front-console firewire port. I was running EvoCam software.
At about 2 hours into running, the cam stopped broadcasting – I got home to check it out three hours later, and the screen was black, and the fan was louder than I had ever, ever heard it on this box.
I did a hard shut-down with the powerbutton on the Cinema Display monitor.
At reboot, I see a grey screen for approx 5 seconds, with a dark grey apple logo, and then the screen goes to black, with a command-line prompt.
It’s been like that ever since.
I ran the Apple Hardware test, from the internal CD drive, and it shows no errors.
I cannot boot from an OSX installer DVD. It won’t recognize it. It goes straight to the black screen and Command line prompt.
I have re-seated the RAM, as well as the Airport Card. The only other card – which I have not re-seated, it the video card.
I am able to use the machine in Target Mode, so I can extract data from the drives, which is great. Oddly enough, I’m able to use the front-console firewire port to connect to my other Mac in Target mode – with no problems. Also – in Target mode, the fan never goes above the usual quiet self.
I would appreciate any advice one can provide. Thanks!
The machine:
Mac G5 dual 2.0 – First Generation (purchased December 2003)
It’s on it’s 3rd Motherboard – and now it’s fully out of Applecare warrantee.

Automating sql files via a command line prompt

Hi All
I've set up an SQL file that extracts information about students in csv format. This information is then imported into another piece of software that creates students e-mail accounts etc..
The program prompts the user to specify from when they want the data from e.g. list of student details that enrolled after 01-SEP-2002.
The Network Manager has now asked me if there is any way the extraction of the student data and import into the e-mail creation software can be automated. He suggested command line prompts as used in DOS e.g. dir/od *.sql > test where dir gives the directory the od orders the files by date.
The Network Manager wanted the extraction and import procedure run on a regular basis by simply just typing a 'command line'. The extraction would take place on an hourly basis especially during the main enrolment periods
Can anybody help me?
Thanks
Jen

I work mainly with UNIX, so cannot give you the actual DOS commands, but I would structure the program as below. I assume that you have some way of identifying the last enrollment you extract.
In psuedo code:
Set up any environment variables required
sqlplus -s user/password@enrollment_server @student_extract.sql
-- student_extract.sql would spool to a fixed name file say enrollment.txt
-- after extracting, it would update a single column, single row table with the
-- the identifying field for the last enrollment extracted (this would also
-- be used in the extract query as the lower bound)
Reset any environment variables required to connect to the email server
sqlplus -s user/password@email_server @load_email.sql
-- load_email.sql would read enrollment.txt and do whatever is required
rename enrollment.txt to enrollment.txt.current-date-timeThis could be run out of an automatic scheduler if you have one, or manually from the command line.

Weird Command Line Prompt in Terminal

Could someone tell me why my command line prompt is coming up as:
vickyscomputer:~ lukecartledge$
This is in a bash shell on 10.5.7.
This is not the name given to the computer and never has been. What is wrong here and is this serious?

There's nothing wrong. The prompt is showing the current host. The following line from /etc/bashrc produces the prompt->

Automated Purge functionality using runjob command line prompt?

We are currently running scheduled jobs through a command line interface using various batch scripts. We are calling the runjob command.
My question, is there a Purge command prompt that we could include in these scheduled jobs to automate desired purges? We don't want to use the runopsjob command because this is taking away from our ability to view data in our created results books.
Thanks,
Jordan

Hey Mike,
So let me layout the situation we are currently in. For our end-users, we generate results books showing data quality consistency issues between 2 systems. Those results books may have upwards to 100 tabs that the users will go into and analyze for what exactly is causing the discrepancy. Along with those results books, we populate Dashboards that will give a high-level understanding of what pages in the results books need attention as well as track our improvement overtime to present to upper management.
Our issue is that our storage space isn't sufficient for the large quantity of processes and records being ran and populated in EDQ. Therefore, we want to set up an automated purge schedule that we can use and incorporate with our command line batch scripts where we run the RUNJOB command. This almost seems as if it should be consider an enhancement request to either allow RUNJOB to have an automated purge schedule functionality or allow RUNOPSJOB to populate results books and dashboards.
What are your thoughts around this and what advice would you have moving forward?
Thanks,
Jordan

Image goes back to a command line prompt during imaging

I am trying to image the AG Department computers at the high school I
work for but the image keeps stopping and going back to a screen prompt.
Is there anyway to fix this or do I need to upload another image?

I typed echo $? after the imaging failed and it came back as "200". Again,
I typed it in and then it kept saying "0".
Also, I tried the zemimglog=A command, but nothing showed up on the floppy
disk. Do I need to mount the floppy drive before I do this command? Sorry,
but I am just now starting to try and learn linux since I have started
working with Novell.

How to start linux box. How i can access its command line prompt

[root@rxxx ~]# /sbin/shutdown -h now
Broadcast message from root (pts/1) (Mon Feb 12 13:18:44 2007):

If you want to reboot your system don't use -h (halt)
when system is halt, the only option you have is turn off system and turn back on.
halt
Set the computer to a mode that enables a user to turn off the computer.use
shutdown -r Now

How to run command line tool in my program???

Hi,all,I've got some tools that are usually,or take JDK for example,if we are not using an IDE,we need to open the command prompt,and then use the javac command to compile the source files and the "java "command to run the program,and both of them accept some command line params.The problem is that how could i integrate the tools in my own program,like JBuilder or some other IDE,you configure the params and compile and run in the IDE which don't need to open a command line prompt.Hope i have got my question clear:)
Best regards..

jesperdj ,thanks:)

Advice on constructing a test engine and formatting a spreadsheet test file to perform command line interface testing on a product through telnet or serial interface

Advice on constructing a test engine and formatting a spreadsheet test file to perform command line interface testing on a range of products through telnet or serial interface and output pass/fail results.

Hello j. smith,
TestStand gives you the ability to create "sequence files" which are lists of tests to be run sequentially or in parallel. These tests can be written in any language: LabVIEW VIs, C/C++ DLLs, EXEs, ActiveX objects, .NET Assemblies, etc.
You can run your TestStand sequence files from a command-line prompt using the following syntax:
\bin\SeqEdit.exe" /quit -run
This will launch the TestStand Sequence Editor (and optionally prompt you for TestStand login information if you have this configured), run your sequence file, then exit.
If you're using the TestStand process model, it can output your results to a report file or database if you configure this. To use a TestStand process mo
del to execute your sequence file, use the following syntax:
\bin\SeqEdit.exe" /quit -runEntryPoint
Here's an example:
C:\>"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 3.0\bin\SeqEdit.exe" /quit -runEntryPoint "Single Pass" "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 3.0\Examples\Demo\C\computer.seq"
Note that multiple sequences and sequence files can be specified on the command line.
TestStand supports remote sequence execution using DCOM (Distributed COM), which is an east way to remotely execute tests. But as for running tests or commands through a telnet or serial interface, you would have need to check Windows documentation on how to execute command-line remotely like this.

Beyond that thread, I gave a presentation at Kaleidoscope last year around MaxL that goes into quite a bit of depth re encryption and a whole bunch of other MaxL goodies.
To download it, go to www.odtug.com, click on Tech Resources, Essbase/Hyperion, and use the search box for MaxL.
There are two presentations, one by Tracy McMullen and the other by me. Tracy's is a good introduction to the various command groups; my presentation focused on a few areas in depth, one of which was encryption. The title is "Master Essbase with MaxL Automation".
You will need to join ODTUG to download the presentation, but there is a junior membership that is free.

P.S. ODTUG Kaleidoscope 2010 is coming up in two weeks, starting on 27 June 2010 -- for those of you still on the fence, it is an awesome conference and I urge you all to come. The content this year will be fantastic.

Crystal reports from command line

Post Author: DrewJ
CA Forum: General
Hi,
I need to run Crystal reports from the command line.
Does anyone know how to pass parameter arguments when launching the application?
I have tried cr32w.exe c:\reports\report.rpt arg="099909"
(which launches the right report, but does not pass in the arg)
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance,
Drew Johnston

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. The application would not be on the same server as the machine. So if I used the command that you gave me would that actually run the report (ie refresh the data and then save the report ,as instructed in the settings, on to the network location). Or would it just open up the report. Also, how would I send parameters to the report, eg Dates or Status.
This is the scenario. At the moment a user would input data on to database via an external applicaion. After inputting all the data, they would then have to log into Crystal Infoview. Navigate to the report. They would then click on the Schedule hyperlink. They would change the parameters eg Start Date and End Date. And then press the Schedule button. The report would then refresh the data, and as specified in the Destination, it would write out to a network location.
So we want the external app to write a command line prompt, so that the user did not have to log onto Crystal at all. The application would send the relevant parameters and run the crystal report automatically without the user having to log into Crystal at all.
Regards,
Prakash

Command Line Discoverer 10g

Hello Forum Friends,
Long time no comms!! Hope all the regulars are keeping well.
Question, the majority of my experiences with Discoverer have come from version 4, including admin and desktop. I've recently transferred to a new job, and although they have access to 4, some of their customers only have 10g.
Could someone tell me if the functionallity of uising command line prompts such as;
DIS51USR.EXE /connect user_name/password@database /apps_user /apps_responsibility "Resp_name"
/opendb "user_name:workbook_name" /sheet ALL
is still available in version 10g? I've hit a few stumbling blocks today, and a few errors, i think could be related to the <workbook name> syntax, but have also read on the forums that 10 g (is this also called plus?) does not really have the same functionality when it comes to creating batch files etc?
Many thanks
Simon

Good Morning.
After reading through a few bits and pieces on the OTN, i've now attempted to use the following command line syntax but to no avail;
C:\oracle\BIToolsHome_1\bin\dis51usr.exe /connect sysadmin/password@db/apps_user/opendb
I reveive the error "Failed to Connect to database - ORA - 12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified" , okay so this tells me there is an issue with my tns names connection, but upon review this all seems fine, i can connect using the same "DB name" in the syntax above logging in manually, i'm connecting to both standard and applications euls, there are no entries in the GYWID or the Foundation name within tools options conections in Desktop, but this makes no difference to my manual connection, in fact when i do add the standard entries of;
Gateway User ID: applsyspub/pub
Foundation Name: apps
i can not connect manually.
Any suggestions would be great, many thanks in advance.
Simon

Folder created in Windows Explorer not visible in Command Line as SYSTEM user

Hello everyone,
We have an odd behavior with an application installation, which I cannot make much sense of.
We are trying to deploy an application on Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 which tries to access
C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop during installation.
This folder does not exist by default in a Windows 8.1 installation. Hence we am creating this folder using a VBS script manually. The VBS script also launches the application EXE. The setup itself runs under the SYSTEM account (in order to be deployed using
SCCM).
When the install script is launched, we can see in the Windows Explorer that the "Desktop" folder is created in the systemprofile directory. However, to the setup running under the system account, this folder is not visible.
I have verified this by running a command line prompt under the SYSTEM user and navigating to
C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\. Using the "dir" command does not show you a "Desktop" folder under the EXACT same path.
When we create the Desktop folder from this command prompt, the application installs just fine.
What are we missing? Any inputs are highly appreciated.

Hi,
Might this need to quit the command prompt after the folder creation, then reload it to continue the installation of the software?
Best regards
