Connection Issues - Attempting to run Onyx

Hello All,
Just now getting around to attempting to use Onyx. Got v2.1.4226.28167 attempting to run on win 2K8 R2 or WIN7. vCenter version is 5.0u3.
I have Onyx on a test vCenter W2K8 box. I launch Onyx and specify the Https of the vCenter server (localhost) I select to launch the VI client from Onyx and ultimately the Client times out or a return is generated that the login was incorrect. The Onyx Console does not display anything. The header of the window show it connected to the vCenter server on port 443
In a test against PowerCLI
I am pointing the VI client to http://localhost:1545. It shows a connection to the local host , but then when a cmdlet is run shows and error "Not authenticated"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Luc,
Yes, logging into the client or powerCLI via default ports is not a problem. I am using domain credentials.
Thanks,
Mike

Javascript: Check Internet connection before attempting to run SQL command on remote server

Good evening,
I am developing a form that reads and posts data from/to a table hosted on a remote PC running XP/SQL Server Express 2008 R2. I access the server through the Internet.
My problem is that if the internet connection happens to be down when I -eg- try to save data to the table using the form, the SQL command tries to reach the server for a while, and eventually crashes.
Is there a way to programatically verify that a remote SQL server is reachable over the Internet before attempting to run a command on it?
Many thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Randy

Did you find a solution to this? I am attempting a similar form and need to verify there is an active internet connection before allowing the form to process.

Adobe Creative Cloud connectivity issue on Websense run network; Failed to send the request to server to get the response - 12002

Hi all,
I am able to install the Windows Adobe Creative Cloud application fine on Windows 7 box but the application fails to establish a connection with Adobe server/-s.
We use a proxy with Websense as our network security solution. Proxy configuration script is set in Internet Options. We have not tried to whitelist anything as per http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/proxy-authentication-support-creative-cloud.html as the errors suggest the application does not even connect to the proxy server/Websense at all.
Please see below snippet from that DLM.log file that contains the error messages - please have a look. Could anybody tell me what it means or advise how to resolve this please? I don't see the Adobe Creative Cloud tool to have any options where manual proxy settings can be setup to try that.

JDBC Connection Jobs Continue to Run After Network Issues

We've got 7.0 SP13 installed in our DEV and QAS environments. We connect to iSeries DB2 tables using a JDBC connection. We recently experienced a network issue that shutdown PI. Problem is that the system jobs used to connect to the iSeries are still running and still requiring more and more temporary storage. We've rebooted our PI boxes but still these connection jobs continue to run and gobble up more memory.
Are we missing something in our configuration of these communication channels that will force these jobs to end???
Thanks in advance,
Chad

iSeries is on a separate server altogether. JDBC connection to the iSeries is setup through the communication channel.
Problem is that the network issue that disconnected PI from the iSeries left these communication jobs running on the iSeries.
Rebooting PI only created MORE of these communication jobs.
Thanks for the reply VJ, but I don't believe the poll interval would help me in this case.

Issues of attempting to run a WiFi attached iPad 7x24?

Anyone know of any issues in attempting to run a WiFi attached iPad 7x24 in a retail environment? Ours seem to drop every few days requiring a power cycle. No issues reported with other WiFi equipment in the same space.

I feel the exact same. I just got my new iPod Touch on Monday. Couldn't get it working at all on Monday, then yesterday I restored it, and last night I excitedly got to finally play with my new toy....then today...can't get it working at all. And I didn't change anything on it. I haven't taken it out of my house either....and all other wireless devices are working in my home! So frustrating. I'm thinking about returning mine too!

Excel ODBC Connection Issues

I'm having some issues importing external data from an Oracle 9i database.
Here is what is happening:
I am initially able to import data from the table I want to into Excel.
I do this through "Data -> Import External Data -> New Database Query" where I have my .ORA data source. I'm able to log in using my user and password and import the table. My problems come after I import this first set of data.
If I try to "Edit Query…" I get an error box that says "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
If I try to "Refresh Data" I get two error boxes. The first is just: "[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]" and the next says: "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed". It then prompts me for the User name and password of the DB I'm connecting and after I enter the information, I get the same two error messages.
Also, if I attempt to establish another connection following the "Data -> Import External Data…" steps I run into a different problem. Upon entering the information for the User Name and password prompt I get two error messages. One says "!" and the next box says "Couldn't read this file". Once I click "OK" in those boxes, the Microsoft Query window automatically opens with nothing in it.
I can't seem to figure out why I can initially pull down data and then cannot succeed afterwards. I'm unable to connect to the DB I have through Excel until I completely closed all Microsoft Excel instances.
I also use this data source in Microsoft Access without any problems.
My Excel version is 2003.
I'm using Oracle Drivers I'm using are from an "Instant Client" package.
Any thoughts why I'm having these connections issues?
Thanks in advance.

This issue is closed.
The solution was:
"Data -> Import External Data -> Import Data"
Select "New Source" and select the "Oracle" data source and filled in the appropriate information. This was similar to the database query but it actually works.

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".
My internet is fine: all other apps that do not rely on the Game Center work, as does my browser and other online functions; additionally, a friend's iPhone connects to his Game Center perfectly while he is sitting next to me.
Closing the Game Center app and then reopening it is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then logging back in, and then reopening the Game Center is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then reopening the Game Center app and logging back in from there is ineffective.
This issue has gone on for more than a month, and so the phone has gone through all variations of "turn it off then back on again, refresh the system, etc etc" that are the basic first suggestions for trouble shooting.
One game app, which required a Game Center profile to launch, stopped working entirely, and would return a message saying something like "connect to the Game Center". I eventually deleted it to free up space. Other games which can be linked to the Game Center to connect with friends simply fail to link, returning "Game Center unavailable". This is the aspect that is currently bothering me the most: I cannot play games with friends unless the app can also link to Facebook and connect to friends from there.
When I open the Game Center, I see the following screen. The bubbles float gently, and it seems as if I had the ability to update my "status". However doing so results in a message that has vanished once the app is reopened.
Upon tapping Games, either the bubble from the main screen or the option on the ribbon at the bottom, the following screen appears. Clicking on Challenges shows a message that achievements must be viewed to issue a challenge. Clicking achievements results in a message that games must be connected (and from my friend's phone I know I have several apps that should appear).
Upon tapping friends, it does show me a list of suggested friends pulled from Facebook, but attempting to send a friend request results in the following screen. After accepting the error box, the "send" button for the request is grayed out and unavailable regardless of adding or deleting friends and/or an accompanying message.
In short, the Game Center is completely unresponsive for no discernible reason, and this problem began with no warning and is now long term. Though my iPhone is older (a 4s), my friend's is even older (a regular 4) and works fine.

I am having the very same problem on my iPad running ios 7. All is fine on my iPhone it opens no problem - this is running on ios 8. I wish they would fix it.

"A script is already running" while attempting to run more than one item

We upgrade recently to ODT 11.2.0.3.20. Since then, attempting to run more than one item from the Solution Explorer (by selecting the items, right-clicking, and selecting "Run") results in a popup error of "Oracle Developer Tools. A script is already running". If many items are selected it results in many error messages and only a random few of the items are actually executed on the server. Also, choosing "Run On" now results in it prompting for the target database for each item selected (rather than once for all items selected like it used to). This all used to work fine in the earlier release we were using. Has anyone else run into this? Any fixes? We used to use multi-select and "Run" or "Run On" to deploy multiple items at once, but this no longer works -- doing one at a time works, but if you have hundreds of items to run, this quickly becomes unusable.
Thanks for any insight.

I don't believe that the intention was for you to be able to run a bunch of scripts one after the other. Often there are dependencies between scripts anyway and so you you have to order them. Because we're generally deploying a large set of stored procedures (and not just one-time scripts) the order doesn't really matter -- even if a stored procedure gets created before one it depends on, once all the SPs are on the server, the ones that are "invalid" will compile correctly once you execute them.
I think a lot of people are creating master scripts that references child scripts using the "@" sql plus syntax.... have you tried that?
I'll give that a try as a work around. Only issue I have with that solution is every time we add or remove something from the solution, we also have to update the script.
We are doing a lot of enhancements to our script generation in the coming year. Keep an eye out for a beta to test.
Like I said, this used to work fine in the older versions of ODT. It seems like the new version is attempting to execute multiple items at once on the same connection simultaneously, thus resulting in the "A script is already running" error. The old version used to be smart enough to execute them one at a time -- so something changed in a more recent version to completely break "Run" and "Run On" when you have more than one item highlighted (even just highlighting 2 items and choosing "Run" runs the first item, but then gives the error for the second item).

IPad2, Verizon 3G, VPN Connectivity Issues

Greetings all. I am the systems administrator for my corporation and have seen an issue that I wish to present to the community for discussion.
For those enterprise users that have an iPad2 with Verizons 3G, are you experiencing connectivity issues while trying to connect to your VPNs from the 3G network? If so, have you found any work around to allow connectivity or does it work fine for you?
Here's a summary of my issues:
We have a VPN server built on Debian Linux that has been in operation for over four years. It handles remote VPN connections from Windows, Linux, Android, OS X, iOS, and from many different devices including multiple flavors of Apple products (iMacs, Minis, MacBooks, iPads, etc.). To date, it has performed flawlessly with assorted devices connecting to it through broadband and assorted 3G networks.
Recently I purchased an iPad2 with Verizon 3G. I was able to set up the VPN connection using PPTP and connect using a Wi-Fi connection. When I turned off the Wi-Fi and attempted the same connection via Verizon 3G, it fails. I then took an associates iPad1 using AT&T 3G, set up the same connection, and was able to connect. I don't have access to an iPad2 on AT&T 3G so, I can't speak for that.
Here's the logs from the VPN server while connecting from my iPad2:
Wi-Fi
Jul 27 05:20:43 localhost pppd[31694]: Plugin /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so loaded.
Jul 27 05:20:43 localhost pppd[31694]: pptpd-logwtmp: $Version$

Jul 27 05:20:46 localhost pppd[31694]: pptpd-logwtmp.so ip-up ppp2 scott XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (removed external IP for security reasons)
Quick connect, able to utilize VPN connection normally. No issues.
Verizon 3G

Jul 27 05:20:33 localhost pppd[31682]: Connection terminated.
Jul 27 05:20:33 localhost pppd[31682]: Exit.
As you can see, the peer refuses to authenticate causing the link to be terminated while attempting to connect using Verizons network. This is with the same VPN connection settings on the iPad2 that just worked with WiFi connection from the same device.
Here's what I can verify with regards to 3G networks:
Older (<4) iPhones and iPad1 using AT&T can connect
Windows and OS X based laptops using Sprint 3G can connect
Android based smart phones using Sprint 3G can connect
I have not called Verizon or Apple Support yet but, that's next when I have the time. My initial conclusion is that there is something with Verizons 3G services that is causing the issue. It may be that Verizon is using some sort of data compression process that is problematic with VPN transmission. While the log shows an unsupported IPv6 protocol when connecting via Wi-Fi, it still negotiates a successful connection and I don't think that's the root cause for the disconnect. Thoughts?

Hi Alexander,
I am running in to the exact same issue (although not with Linux). Did you ever find a fix for this? I have some support tickets open with my VAR's, but found your post and thought I would check. If I find anything I will post.
Thanks

Macromedia Contribute 3.11 Slow Connection issues Windows 7

I have got Macromedia Contribute 3.11, i am experiencing lot of issues at the moment.
Firstly, it takes a long time to connect to the server, most of the times it connects to the server, sometimes it fails, but the time it takes to connect to the server is unacceptable.
Secondly, contribute is taking a long time to publish the webpages.
I am using Windows 7, when I ran the compatibility check, it said incompatible detected, and suggested to change to Windows XP Service Pack 2. I did that, but still the issue persists...
Any suggestions or recommendations would be really appreciated.
Many Thanks

SSRS/SharePoint Migration 2010 to 2013 connection issues

We are currently attempting to move our SharePoint 2010 to 2013 and SSRS Information. The first attempt at this we were unable to get SSRS to show up in Central Admin. We decided to rebuild all servers and re-installed everything.
This time we have SSRS showing up in Central admin and we are able to run some reports from our sites now. In our 2010 environment we are using "Windows authentication (integrated) or Sharepoint user" option with SharePoint Lists. I am unable to
get this to work in our 2013 Environment, the stored credentials with windows authentication will work however.
I have read t through many different books, MS Guides, Blogs, Forums, etc but unable to solve this issue.
I have tried editing the rsreportserver.config to match our Production, did not help. (also tried different authentications)
I found an article saying to change the "Forms" Auth in some config files to "Windows" did not help
When I try to go to our \\localserver\reportserver (appserver) I get a blank page with this info:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Microsoft-IIS/8.5
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 22:30:03 GMT
Connection: close
I have tried going into Central Admin -> General Application Settings -> Report Server Integration. and fill out this information also but receive this error:
Failed to establish connection with report server. Verify the server URL is correct or review ULS logs for more information. Product area: SQL Server Reporting Services, Category: Configuration
Pages
I am not sure if I have missed some step along the way of migrating and setting up this information. Any help or other things to try would be very helpful.
Thanks!

Hi young99,
According to your description, you get connection issue after migration from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013. Right?
In this scenario, we are not clear how you did the migration. Please follow these steps and check if you miss anything:
Restore Reporting Services encryption keys
Backup the SharePoint content databases and detach it.
Backup Reporting Services catalog database.
Copy Reporting Services configuration files.
Restore SharePoint Content databases to the new farm.
Restore the Reporting Servicesencryption keys.
Restore the SQL database that is the Reporting Services catalog database (ReportServer).
Restore Reporting Services configuration files.
Create a new Reporting Services service application.
For more information, please see:
Migrate a Reporting Services Installation (SharePoint Mode)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

PAM authentication failure when attempting to run job

I'm attempting to run a scheduled job from grid control (version 10.2.0.5.0) against a Solaris server and it keeps failing with:-
Error Log
ERROR: Invalid username and/or password
Output Log
LOG: Local Authentication Failed...Attempt PAM authentication...PAM failed with error:
Despite entering an os username and password into the preferred credentails for this server which work when I try to logon to using putty, I can't connect to the server using the preferred credentils screen either. However, the agent can upload data without any problems. Can anyone point me in the correct direction as towards a resolution for this issue.

Thanks for the information, Oracle support came up with this technical note also. Its a bit strange as it mentions using the shared object for ldap in the pam.conf even though I'm not using ldap. Out of interest, do you use grid control, Solaris and pam authentication ?

Samba connection issues

Well, at some point, it would appear that my Samba shares stopped being available. If I attempt to navigate from my laptop to the share, I just keep getting challanged for a username/password. When I look through my samba.log file, all I am seeing is this error:
[2009/11/30 18:43:39, 0] smbd/server.c:457(smbd_open_one_socket)
smbd_open_once_socket: open_socket_in: Address already in use
I am going to assume that something broke on one of the updates since I had this working for quite some time before the last few weeks. I did a quick Google search and see some issues posted in the Ubuntu forums, but no real answers.
Anybody else seeing these errors?

Yeah I'm seeing both that error, and I have also started getting an error that looks like it's related to some ipv6 issues:
Matchname failed on x.y.z ::ffff:192.168.1.1
I tried everything, connecting from various windows based pc's, but I kept getting that error. Tried disabling ipv6, but that just resulted in silent errors. I also keep getting challenged for username/password, and get the above error.
For now I have compiled my own samba, which I run out of /usr/local. I hope someone can enlighten me/us on this problem, since my samba has been running for years through multiple arch-updates, and now brutally stopped.
Could it be ipv6 DNS issues? I run my own DNS.

Linksys E3000 – WiFi Connectivity Issue

I usually have the 2.5GHz (B/G + WEP) and the 5.0 GHz (Mixed + WPA2-PSK) networks running. I have about two to three iPhones running on the 2.5GHz, one Laptop on the 5.0GHz and one desktop wired. Recently in the previous week I came across wireless issues on the E3000 Linksys Router when arriving home from work. My iPhone wasn’t connecting to the Network or my Laptop. It seemed as if the SSID wasn’t broadcasting. I went into the router and played around with it and didn’t find any issues with my user settings.
The router seems to broadcast the SSID for 2.5 & 5.0 sometimes [it disappears frequently] and when I’m able to attempt to connect it my iPhones plus my Laptop say “Unable to connect to network”. I’m not even connected to it wirelessly to manage the network. The desktop that is wired is able to connect stream internet across the modem though the router, this also goes when I wire my laptop as well.
I’ve made sure I have the latest Firmware: 1.0.04 & I’ve manually reset the router to factory defaults and still had the same connectivity issues. I’ve disabled the 2.5GHz broadcast and ran the 5GHz to make sure the connections weren’t conflicting with each other, which isn’t the case.
It seems I’m having broadcasting problems with the router and even resetting to factory settings aren’t working. I’ve noticed it’s not my devices that aren’t experiencing the issues because the iPhones and Laptop are having the same connectivity issue. My router is mounted to the wall and my modem is working perfectly.
Edit: The lights that are on & solid, during this problem is the Power + Internet + Wifi + Desktop(2)

I realize this is an old thread, but curious as to whether the firmware upgrade helped. My problem is similar, but a few things in my configuration changed over the past 2 weeks:
1) I added a new Roku HD wireless to my router (2 days ago)
2) I upgraded my broadband modem to the Comcast Arris TG862. I had them put this modem in bridge mode so that I could continue to use my E3000. (2 weeks ago).
3) I noticed that comcast created an open network on my TG862 called xfinity wifi. I turned this off (yesterday). Comcast does have an option for it.
Starting yesterday (after I turned off the comcast open network, I began to have problems on my 2.5 Ghz band on my linksys router. Never had these problems before. The network disappears, then re-appears. Somtimes I can connect to it but it's only a matter of time before it disappears again. 5 Ghz seems solid.
Last night, as a test, I turned my xfinity wifi open network back on, and all of a sudden my 2.5 Ghz was rock solid (at least for about 5 hours). It then disappeared again.
I will try the router firmware upgrade, but wondering if the Arris 862 could have anything to do with this. I'm not sure I trust comcast - particularly after they played that nasty open network trick on me.
Thanks!
2.4Ghz Routers only: Try single mode G or N or mixed G and N?
Channel Width set for Auto 20/40Mhz or try 20Mhz only.
Try setting a manual [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_channel] Channel [/url] to a open or unused channel. 1, 6 or 11. 11 for single mode N if the channel is clear. 13 for EU regions.
What security mode are you using? Preferred security is WPA-Personal. WPA2/AES Only. Some WiFi adapters don't support AES, so you might want to try TPIK only or Auto TPIK and AES.
Any 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz cordless house phones or WiFi APs near by?
Any other WiFi routers in the area? Link> Use http://www.metageek.net/support/metageek-software-archives/ to find out. How many?
I prefer not to use Arris branded modems or modems with built in routers. I recommend that you check to see if you can get into a Motorola SB 6141 or similar modem model that is stand alone. Comcast support Motorola modems I believe.
I recommend that you have your ISP check the cabling going to the ISP modem, check signal levels going to the ISP modem. For cable Internet, RG-6 coaxial cable is needed, not RG-59. Check for t.v. line splitters and remove them as they can introduce noise on the line and lower the signal going to the ISP modem. Connecting to the ISP modem could result in a false positive as the signal to the modem could be just enough to that point then adding on a router, could see problems. The router operation is dependent upon getting good data flow from the ISP modem and the modem is dependent upon getting good signal from the ISP Service.
Thank you for the suggestions. Security is WPA2/PSK. This has not changed.
A few questions. With regard to your last paragraph, even if I got a bad data flow from the ISP modem, I would still expect my router to be visible (or am I mistaken). I think, in the past, I've completely turned off my ISP modem and I could still see my router - just had no internet connection.
I'll look for other wifi routers - it just seems so darn coincidental with turning off that xfinity open wifi. I've always noticed other wifi signals in the area, I didn't actually notice any new ones (other than that silly xfinity one).
One thing I did do, I did remove an AP I had connected to the router when I set up the Roku because it seemed like it was un-necessary once I switched to the Arris modem. I just disconnected it... should it be degrown or something?
Thanks!
