Console (Darwin) problem

When I turn the computer on OS X starts to boot up then the screen goes grey and Darwin (console) pops up and prompts me to log in. I've restart the computer a few times but the same thing happens. Any ideas?

Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them.
If this doesn't help, post back; I have more!

  • Consolas hyphen problem in PDFs

    Here's the setup: FrameMaker 7.2, Windows XP, Acrobat Pro 8.1.3, although I think all versions are actually irrelevant to the issue.
    I recently switched to Consolas font for my code listings.  But when Acrobat/Distiller converts the FrameMaker file to PDF, the hyphens end up with the wrong encoding.
    It's definitely an Acrobat issue.  When I copy-paste from my FrameMaker source file to a text file, the consolas hyphen correctly shows as unicode 2D (decimal 45, the "hyphen minus" character).  But copy-pasting from the PDF ends up with the unicode 2010 character (the "hyphen" instead of the "hyphen minus" char).  And while they "look" the same, engineering readers need to be able to copy-paste from the PDF.
    So, is there a patch or a way to tell Distiller to map this character as needed?
    TIA,
    -Monique

    Please delete me from your mailing list.  Tks.

    Exactly how are you converting to PDF. You say Acrobat/Distiller, but what are the steps you are taking. There are too many options not to isolate your process first. Are you printing to the Adobe PDF printer, exporting, or something else?

  • Console Extension Problem

    It seems like exception occurs due to WLS console extension problem. I
    captured the errors and attaching it here.
    The application is working fine on WLS 8.1, the exception occurs only when i deploy
    the application on WLS 7.0. The application components are extending administration
    console and displaying there. During this time, it is trying to invoke servlet(ServletStupImpl)
    and failing over there.
    Please check the attached file and reply me ASAP.

    Are there any exceptions in the Java console for the applet?

  • Sb x-fi xtreme audio console launcher problems on windows 7 32bit

    Asb x-fi xtreme audio console launcher problems on windows 7 32bit'sI recently installed windows 7, because I was tired from Windows XP, but unfortunately after installing all the drivers for my hardware I realized my 5. isn't working quite as expected.
    My first problem was, that the Crystalizer didn't work, after installing tons of different software, found on creative labs forums the crystalizer started working.
    Then I realized that the CMSS-3D wasn't (and still isn't working). How do I fix that ? I've tried numerous ways but nothing happens, while in windows XP everything worked fine after installing the drivers.
    I also miss some configuration options in the Creative Console Launcher, namely the check boxes:
    ?"Automatically enable headphone settings" and "Automatically mute speakers".
    Where the hell did they go?! I use them, I need them. How do I get them back? Is XP somehow privileged than 7? Isn't it supposed to be the opposite?
    I also can't change the speaker configuration - it's stays 5. whatever I do, and the drop-down menu with the choices is missing?! Auto-detect option doesn't work, and if it did worked - I don't need it.

  • Admin Console browser problem

    Hi,
    This is a peculiar problem that I am facing. I am working with iPS3.0SP3 on solaris8. My installation went fine. But when I try to access Admin console(thru Netscape 4.7 or 4.75), I have the login screen displayed. But, after I provide User and Password and hit Submit button, the browser window vanishes. This has been happening with SP2 also. And my login to the portal desktop screen is successful. My browser window is available. The problem is only with the Admin Console.
    Now when I tried to Login to the same portal server instance's Admin Console thru the local Web Browser on a different machine, its working fine. I mean, the windows doesnt close.
    Any guess on what could be the problem.
    Thanks & Regards.
    shivaram.

    Hi there Shivaram,
    I have found a similar problem, when using iPS. If you have logged into the portal desktop and then wan't to log into the admin console, the admin console seems to fail when logging in. What I have found, is that after you logout of the desktop, and then go to the console login, it helps to just click the reload button in netscape, while on the admin console login screen. It seems that you need to clear the session cookie first, otherwise admin authentication fails. Alternatively you can start a seperate instance of Netscape from the command line, which then forces Netscape to create an alternative temporary store, and lock files. I'm not sure wheteher this will help, but this is what I have seend before.... comments welcome..

  • Solaris Management Console Server Problems

    When I try to run Solaris Management Console, I get an error saying that the server is not running on port 898. I have followed the instructions on hte FAQ. I see no instances of smcboot running in the processes. When I run /etc/init.d/init.wbem start it returns to the prompt with no additional information. When I then run /etc/init.d/init.wbem status - it says the server is not running. Anyone have any ideas ... this is driving me nuts. I have gone so far as executing smcwbemserver by hand, and it returns "smcwbemserver [7]: /lib/functions: not found"
    Does ANYONE have any ideas (faint sobbing sounds in the background...)

    I've got the same problem on b63 aswell if I start wbem manually I get no error (infact I don't get anything) and the server just dies. Also had the same thing on a previous Solaris 10 beta and through trial and error found it to be /etc/resolv.conf misconfigured. Unfortunately I can't quite remember what I done to fix it , if I remember I'll post back.

  • SCCM console connection problem to SMS provider

  • Datasource does not appear on the console, intermittent problem

    I am using Weblogic 9.2 MP3
    I've created an Oracle DataSource and successfully targeted it to a Managed Server.
    When I click on it in the console and navigate to the "Monitoring" tab, it would sometimes appear in the "Test DataSource" table and sometimes it would not. I am able to successfully click the Test button when it does appear in the table.
    I do not have this issue with Weblogic 9.2 MP1.
    Is this a known issue and is there a patch for it?
    Thanks,
    Sohel

    hi, I have not this problem, but have read some forums with people having the same problem. It seems to be with people using PC and not mac. Are you using iTunes 9? If so, it seems to be a screen resolution problem, and some of the image is cut and not shown on the screen. Just adjust your screen resolution so the image is all on the screen and the photo tag (the last on the list!!!) will show up!
    Hope this helps

  • Router Console Connect Problem With Mini Usb (1941 Series - Os Win7 64Bit) (SOLVED)

    I can not connect console with mini usb, my router is cisco 1941 series and my os win7 x64 help me please ?
    My problem was solved thanks to this topic;
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11492306/usb-console-driver-install-failing#comment-9697916

    Hi,
    Here is how I have managed to enable the communication with the 1941 using the usb A-B cable:
    Download the usb console driver 3.1
    Install the x64 version on your PC (as administrator)
    After the installation was completed:
    Open the Device Manager. There will be a new entry named “CiscoUsbConsoleWindowsDrive”. Expand it and select the “Cisco USB to Serial adaptor”.
    From the drop-down select “Update Driver Software…
    In the “Update Drive Software” dialog select “Browse my computer for driver software”
    In the next window, a driver location should be displayed, if not browse your PC and find the …\Windows_64 folder where you have extracted the 3.1 driver.
    After the driver software was updated, there should be a new entry in the “Ports (COM &LPT)” named “Cisco Serial (COMx)”.
    You can configure the port here:
    Right click on the “Cisco Serial (COMx)” and select “properties” and set the properties to this;
    Bits per second :9600
    Data bits              :8
    Parity                    :None
    Stop bits              :1
    Flow control       :None
    The new COM port should be ready to accept the connection with the router.
    I am using Tera Terms VT, and it is working well with the above driver and settings.
    Should you wont to use the Cisco Configuration Professional (CCP) download the 2.7 version and make shore you have the current Adobe Flush and a current Java installed on you PC.
    Hope this will help.

  • Loginwindow drops to console Darwin login (no Gui)

    Hi,
    I just realized I underestimated my MacBook pro Intel... My os is 10.4.8 and not 10.3.9... due to this I am reposting in the appropriate forum... (even if it seems to me that this sort of problems occurred also with previous versions of OsX)
    Hi all,
    I am new to the apple forum (and new to mac Os... I usually work in a gentoo linux environment). And, since having updated system software, My mac book pro drops to the nongraphical system console right after I enter the password in the graphical login window.
    With some googling I have seen that quite a few mac users are having the same problem... so I tried ALL the solutions suggested (like rebuilding the netinfo database, repairing permissions with diskutils etc etc...)
    The last lines of my system.log are, as all others with my same problem, roughly like this:
    Oct 4 05:49:02 soyu crashdump151: SecurityAgent crashed
    Oct 4 05:49:03 soyu loginwindow95: AuthorizationRef doesn't have a username (<LoginAuthRefMgr: 0x3385b0>).\n
    (I think this is the relevant part.... does not seem to me that the crashdump log add any relevant info)
    ALL others with the same problem seem to have reverted to an Archive and Install... Might be my Linux way of thinking, but:
    I am sure that there must be a possibility to solve this problem without having to reinstall all config data (the reinstall to fix philosophy is one of the things that turned me away from Windows a lot of time ago)
    (I have also bootcamp installed with WinXP + parallels with linux and winXP, plus fink with a whole lot of unix dev tools.... It would take me to much time)
    Does anyone have any suggestion ?
    I also have another problem:
    I am trying to connect remotely to my "console only" mac, but the net is down... (I switched off AirPort just before the software update... after the update process finished asking me to reboot, I got the BSD login screen as said above)
    So, reading the "command line OsX guide" I am trying to reenable AirPort and connect to my home network (so I can try doing something from my other PC, the one I'm using now).
    the commands I issued are the following (I have to manually write them, since I have no network)
    prompt > sudo ./networksetup-panther -setairportpower on
    You cannot set AirPort power because all AirPort network services are disabled.
    ok... so I have to enable services....
    prompt > sudo ./networksetup-panther -setnetworkserviceenabled AirPort on
    prompt > sudo ./networksetup-panther -getnetworkserviceenabled Airport
    Enabled
    prompt > sudo ./networksetup-panther -setairportpower on
    You cannot set AirPort power because all AirPort network services are disabled.
    ... uhhh !? (maybe I am missing something ?)
    by the way, I found yesterday a file (that I can't find anymore now) telling me that among the updates were also AirPort sw and Firmware... (do not know if this helps...)
    I have also tried creating a new user using dscl... once I am in interactive mode I can cd to NetInfo, but, as soon as I type cd Users the graphical GUI tries to start and, after one or two minutes drops me back to the console.

    I suggest you upgrade your saposcol on the Linux box, it's more than a year old and it's possible, that the SMD client needs a newer version that provides the data you're requesting.

    Firefox won't help you I'm afraid - the problem is actually at the server end not the client.
    What you actually need to do is install TightVNC on your Oracle VM Manager node.
    You can get it from http://oss.oracle.com/oraclevm/manager/RPMS/
    You will then have to close down your browser on your Windows 7 machine and reconnect to the Oracle VM Manager system and try the console again. It will moan briefly about the certificate but accept it and carry on - you should not get the Java error again.
    I found this a great help because the cursor control on my Oracle VM Manager is nearly imposible because I am 5000 miles away from it and over an ILO connection, but with TightVNC on my laptop I can get the same GUI up with mouse control that is as good as local!
    Let me know if this fixes yours too!
