Content Server 6.4 Windows Server 2008 R2 First Test Blank HTTP response

I have installed Content Server 6.4 with MaxDB 7.6 on a Windows 2008 Server r2 system as directed in the "installation guide for SAP Content Server for Windows 2008" at service.sap.com/contentserver -> Media Library
-> Literature. Whenever I test the installation (a CACHE server) with this command:
http://localhost:1095/Cache/CSProxyCache.dll?serverInfo
it sits for about 20 or 30 seconds and then simply returns a blank screen. If I refresh, it returns immedilately, again a blank screen. There is nothing produced in the IIS logs at C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1. I am at a loss.
FYI, I used the 50105790 DVD for the installation of Content Server and MaxDB.

I have solved my problem. I initially started by installing the software, putting the databases online, and since I was only installing CACHE SERVER and not CONTENT SERVER, I never attempted to test the CONTENT SERVER URL. After many failures, I then also installed CONTENT SERVER, tested it, and it worked. I found that the database DID NOT have to be online for testing of CONTENT SERVER. That was where things went south. I assumed that the database did not have to be online for testing the CACHE SERVER HTTP URL as well and thus continued my future attempts without the database online. I finally found that with a combination of SAP NOTE 658442 in regards to giving the NETWORK SERVICE proper permissions (even though it says it is for CONTENT SERVER 6.3), plus making sure the databases are ONLINE, I had success.

Running oracle database xe (express edition) on windows server 2008 r2

Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?
Database XE is only supported as 32-bit. Current builds of Windows Server 2008 only come in x64 configurations.
Here are the Database XE system requirements for windows:
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm]
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).
See:
- [Wikipedia page about windows server 2008 with info on R2|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Server_2008#Windows_Server_2008_R2]
- [Wikipedia page on "windows 32-bit on windows 64-bit"|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WOW64]
Thanks,

Hello Matt,
Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?No.
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.So this means that only 32bit versions of 2008 will be supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).Which is probably why 2008 R2 is not supported.
You can either take the VM approach and install a 32 bit Windows or 64 bit Linux host, or you can queue in the list of persons waiting for a 64 bit Windows release. See the following thread for details (and the queue) for the latter: {thread:id=2277728}

RAC on Windows Server 2008 R2 - which edition is necessary

Hello,
which Windows Server 2008 R2 edition is required to install RAC - standard or enterprise (NOT database edition - windows server 2008 edition)?
If we want to implement RAC 11Gr2 Enterprise Edition does the operating system also has to be enterprise edition or is it possible to install RAC 11GR2 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition?
What Server Version is more suited for RAC Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008, and why?
Thanks in advance for any information.
kind regards
Monika Anna

Hi Monika,
which Windows Server 2008 R2 edition is required to install RAC - standard or enterprise (NOT database edition - windows server 2008 edition)?
If we want to implement RAC 11Gr2 Enterprise Edition does the operating system also has to be enterprise edition or is it possible to install RAC 11GR2 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition?All Oracle Database 11g Release 2 is supported on the following Windows Server 2008 R2 editions:
Windows Web Server 2008 (x64)
Windows Server 2008 Foundation (x64)
Windows Server 2008 Standard (x64)
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise (x64)
Windows Server 2008 Datacenter (x64)
What Server Version is more suited for RAC Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008, and why?I recommend Windows 2008, because the system is newer and has a lot of features that do not exist in Windows 2003. Oracle 11.2 is certified in Windows 2008.

Upgrading windows server 2003 domain controller to windows server 2008

Hello friedns :
We have a company with about 2000 users , and two windows server 2003 domain controllers , one of them acts as a primary domain controller , and the other acts as secondary domain controller , all the FSMO s are on the primary DC ,we have decided to upgrade all of our servers from windows server 2003 to windows server 2008 , the first step is to upgrade the domain controllers to windows server 2008 , our domain controllers are so sensitive and has to be active 24 hours a day , i have stress upgrading it to windows server 2008 , what is the best solution to upgrade it with no risk ?
( i have an opinion but i am not sure and i dont have any guide about it , i want to install a windows server 2008 and promote it as an additional domain controller to the windows server 2003 DC and the transfer all the FSMOs to it , and then promote the first domain controller !!! is that possible ? if yes , is there any guide about it? )
If there is a guide available for it please let me know . (Specially if there is a tip & trick)
thank you guys.
Network is my LOVE

Hi,
This TechNet online article might be helpful for you.
How to Upgrade Domain Controllers to Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee522994(WS.10).aspx
For your convenience, I have list some general steps for your reference.
Since the following operation have potential damage to Active Directory database, it is highly suggested that you'd better perform a full backup of Active Directory (System State) firstly. Also it is better to test the following procedure in a similar lab environment first.
General Steps:
=============
1. Verify the new server's TCP/IP configuration has been pointed to the current DNS server.
2. Make the new server become a member server of the current Windows Server 2003 domain first.
3. Upgrade the Windows Server 2003 forest schema to Windows Server 2008 schema with the "adprep /forestprep" command on old server.
Please run the "adprep.exe /forestprep" command from the Windows Server 2008 installation disk on the schema master. To do this, insert the Windows Server 2008 installation disk, and then type the following command:
Drive:\sources\ADPREP\adprep.exe /forestprep
4. Upgrade the Windows 2003 domain schema with the "adprep /domainprep" command on old server.
Please run the "adprep.exe /domainprep" command from the Windows Server 2008 installation disk on the infrastructure master. To do this, insert the Windows Server 2008 installation disk, and then type the following command:
Drive:\sources\ADPREP \adprep.exe /domainprep
5. Insert Windows Server 2008 Installation Disc in the new server.
6. Run "dcpromo" on new server to promote it as an additional domain controller in existing Windows 2003 domain, afterwards you may verify the installation of Active Directory.
Please refer to:
How to Verify an Active Directory Installation in Windows Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816106
7. Verify the new server's TCP/IP configuration has been pointed to current DNS server.
8. Enable Global Catalog on new server and manually Check Replication Topology and afterwards manually trigger replication (Replicate Now) to synchronize Active Directory database between 2 replicas.
Please note: It will some time to replicate GC between DC, please wait some time with patience.
9. Disable Global Catalog on the old DC.
10. Transfer all the FSMO roles from the old DC to the new DC.
Please refer to:
How to view and transfer FSMO roles in Windows Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324801
11. Verify that the old DNS Server Zone type is Active Directory-Integrated. If not, please refer to:
How To: Convert DNS Primary Server to Active Directory Integrated
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816101
Note: Active Directory Integrated-Zone is available only if DNS server is a domain controller.
12. Install DNS component on new server and configure it as a new DNS Server (Active Directory Integrated-Zone is preferred). All the DNS configuration should be replicated to the new DNS server with Active Directory Replication.
13. Make all the clients change TCP/IP configuration to point to new server as DNS.
14. You may configure TCP/IP on all the clients, or adjust DHCP scope settings to make them use the new DNS server.
Please note: It is a good practice to make the old DC offline for several days and check whether everything works normally with the new server online. If so, you may let the old DC online and run DCPROMO to demote it.
Hope it helps.

Wilson Jia

MS14-044 for SQL Server 2008 Standard on Windows Server 2003?

MS14-044 was recently released and states that it applied to MS SQL Server 2008 SP3, yet the patches available for this security bulletin do not list Windows Server 2003 in the supported operating systems. Does MS14-044 not apply to SQL Server running
on Windows Server 2003? If it does apply, why isn't there an update available to run on Windows Server 2003?

Hi Chasg76,
According to your description, the patches available for MS14-044 do not list Windows Server 2003 in the supported operating systems and you want to know whether MS14-044 applies to SQL Server running on Windows Server
2003.
Based on my test, KB2977321 applies to SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 product and it does apply to SQL Server 2008 SP3 running on Windows Server 2003.
I installed SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 in Windows Server 2003 SP2 x86. After the service pack 3 installation completed, KB2977321 was offered in the Automatic Update.
Besides, you can manually install the update by downloading the update form the Download Center web site as well.
I also tried the manually installation and I downloaded the Security Update for SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 (KB2977321) from this web: Security Update for SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 (KB2977321) (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS14-044),
it was installed successfully.
After installed security upgrade, I checked the file attributes and compared to this article: MS14-044: Description of the security update for SQL Server 2008 SP3 (GDR): August 12, 2014(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2977321/en-us).
The result is the same.
According to my test, MS14-044 applies to SQL Server running on Windows Server 2003 even though Windows Server 2003 is not listed in the supported operating systems.
Best regards,
Qiuyun Yu

Server 2008 (R2) TCP/IP Stack sending RST to close short lived sessions

Hi,
I'm having an issue with some vendor software, but it appears to be more closely related to the way the TCP/IP stack is handling session shutdown. I'd like to know what this feature is called, any available documentation, and ideally how to disable it.
Basically, what appears to happen, is Server 2008 is sending a Rst, Ack to terminate a short lived connection, instead of entering the standard TCP shutdown (Using FIN flags). This appears to be an attempt to avoid having short lived sessions sit in a
TIME_WAIT state, as I can see long TCP connections properly being shutdown.
I realize the benefits of what this is trying to accomplish, however, the software in question is making HTTP calls, and the server being rather basic, is sending HTTP responses without content-length or transfer encoding: chunked, which means the only
way to tell the server is done sending content is for the connection to close. However, it appears that the stack is interpreting this type of Tcp shutdown as in error, and generating annoying alerts within the application that is monitoring the close state.
Does windows have a way to disable this stack feature. I've confirmed the chimney offload doesn't appear to be in use, so this is an effect of the Windows stack itself. I don't have control of the software on either end, but do have a bug open with the vendor,
I'm more interested in a possible workaround for the short term.

Rick, this did not help as it's the approach i've already taken in testing. Albeit, I did disable the chimney offload on the NIC drivers instead of the windows options, but in the wireshark captures I'm still seeing the same behavior.
Humand, I don't think you're issue is the same as mine, I beleive these RST, ACK's are in response to a NORMAL connection shutdown, and being interpretted as errors be the partner stack. I haven't seen this cause premature tcp shutdown, which would be you're
dropped RDP connections.

Issue while connecting to MS SQL Server 2008

Hi everyone,
I have not seen any thread that gives me a clue to my problem.
I have OBIEE 10.1.3.4.0 on Windows.
I have created an ODBC3.5 Datasource to a SQL Server 2008 and the test connection is successful.
I have also imported the tables from the SQL Server 2008 into the Physical Layer of the OBIEE Administration tool. However after check-in, my problem begins trying to do an Update Row Count with the following Error message:
NQODBCSQL_STATE: HY000nQSError: 10058 A general error has occurred.
nQSError: 43093 An error occured while processingthe EXECUTE PHYSICAL statement.
nQSError: 16023 The ODBC function has returned an error. The database may not be available, or the network may be down.
Any suggestion or pointer will be greatly appreciated.

Reading your post Issue in connecting to MS SQL Server 2008 I guess this thread here can be closed.
Cheers,
C.

KB2852386 on Server 2008 R2 Core?

http://blogs.technet.com/b/askpfeplat/archive/2014/05/13/how-to-clean-up-the-winsxs-directory-and-free-up-disk-space-on-windows-server-2008-r2-with-new-update.aspx
Found that recently and was like, yay, finally, can clean up Winsxs on the dozen or so license VMs with tiny hard drives... but, running into a snag. I'm trying to install the Windows6.1-KB2852386-v2-x64.msu I downloaded from here, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2852386/en-us,
but it won't run. It keeps saying "The update is not applicable to your computer."
The server is running Windows Server Core 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1. I assume this is not working because it is Server Core and so it does not have the Desktop Experience feature. Is there a workaround?

Terminal Server profiles path between Server 2008

My existing Citrix farm has published desktops on Server 2008 x86 SP1, and the new farm I'm building is based on Server 2008 R2 x64. I can't get the x64 servers to use the same path as the x86 servers, despite having the same GPO's.
Both have the same GPO linked: under Computer Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Remote Desktop Session Host/Profiles, the path is set to \\server\share\%username%.
When a user who doesn't have a profile logs in to a Server 2008 x86 server, after they log out their profile is uploaded to the share as \\server\share\username.V2. When a user logs into Server 2008 R2, it doesn't pull their username.V2 profile and instead
creates a new one as \\server\share\username\username.domain.V2.
Please help me get the x64 R2 servers to use the existing TS profiles.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Set up RD Session Host roaming profile path
Roaming profiles should be configured separately for each RD session farm. They should not be shared between farms or user’s physical desktops since profile corruption and data loss may occur if a user is simultaneously logged into two machines that load the
same user profile.
Configure the following Group Policy on the RD Session Host:
Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services -> Remote Desktop Session Host -> Profiles ->
Set path for Remote Desktop Services Roaming Profiles
Kindly go through beneath article for information.

Why is the LookUp object in the Flow Task of my SSIS package going red (and not working) ? Sql Server 2008 R2

I have been working with the Sql Server 2008 R2 SSIS Tutorial at
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms170419(v=sql.105).aspx
--specifically -- Lesson 1. I have been having some problems with this lesson where the source data from the samples download doesn’t exactly match the data described in the tutorial, and the tables in the tutorial are different from what
is contained in AdventureWorksDW (tutorial refers to DimTime – AdventureWorksDW contains DimDate and no DimTime).
So, after futzing in BI with this tutorial so that I can at least get it to run in Debug – it errors out on the 2nd LookUp object.
Rather than looking for a fix to the problem(s) that I am having between the tutorial and the stuff I downloaded in the samples --
I want “Adapt” the tutorial so I can use the stuff I downloaded and hopefully learn how to use SSIS with the elements (source data and tables) that are present on my workstation.
Here is a description of what is going on for me – which I really don’t understand what is going on in BI – based on the images below – like what columns (from what tables) are they associating to in the OleDB Destination?
Note: the sql in the LookUps here is the sql that I copied from the tutorial.
I probably need to modify these sql statements – so -- the help I am requesting is to make the required modifications/changes
so that I can adapt this tutorial with the stuff that’s on my workstation.
I downloaded the samples and the AdventureWorksDW mdf for Sql Server 2008 R2.
It turns out that in the tutorial it wants me to select a DimTime table, but the version of the AdventureWorksDW db does not contain a DimTime table.
Instead, it contains a DimDate table. So I tried adapting DimDate for the tutorial.
Additionally, the sample data file -- SampleCurrencyData.txt -- has slightly different data types than the types described in the tutorial, so I selected data types for the columns in the datasource text file that would work in BI would to
connect column from source data file to the table.
After finishing all the steps for Lesson 1 -- when I tried debugging the package – and it error'd out on the 2nd Lookup object whichwent red.
 I edited the lookups and the sample Ole DB Destination to "ignore on fail” and I did all
green but the FactCurrencyRate table is not being populated -- as described in the tutorial, so I reset the on error back to default (Fail on error option). And based on this tutorial -- I believe FactCurrencyRate
table is the table which is supposed to be populated with the data from SampleCurrencyData.txt?
In the sample data file that downloaded with all the samples I removed all the data from the text file except for 6 rows, so instead of the original 1100 or so rows, I have only 6 rows of data in the source data file (just to keep things
simple for debugging for now). I did not modify the data itself.
Here is what the (raw) data contained in SampleCurrencyData.txt looks like (from the samples that I downloaded from codeplex) – it’s supposed to be 4 columns of data – float, nvarchar, datetime, float:

Below are images of my BI Layout for Lesson 1 from this tutorial -- the FlatFile and configurations for On Fail Error, A Flow task, the 2 LookUps (CurrencyKey and DataKey), the OleDB Destination configuration, the Design view of the associated tables and
the Debug Run of Lesson 1, and the following error messages. My goal is to figure out what is going on in BI for this tutorial.
Error: 0xC020901E at Extract Sample Currency Data, Lookup Datakey [51]: Row yielded no match during lookup.
Error: 0xC0209029 at Extract Sample Currency Data, Lookup Datakey [51]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR.
The "component "Lookup Datakey" (51)" failed because error code 0xC020901E occurred, and the error row disposition on "output "Lookup Match Output" (53)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified
object of the specified component. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
Error: 0xC0047022 at Extract Sample Currency Data, SSIS.Pipeline: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED.
The ProcessInput method on component "Lookup Datakey" (51) failed with error code 0xC0209029 while processing input "Lookup Input" (52). The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific
to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running.
There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
--this is the flat file
-- SampleCurrencyData.txt (which only contains 6 data rows for my purposes)
--and here is where I assign the data types for the colums of -- SampleCurrencyData.txt
This is the first LookUp Object -- LookUp Currency Key – The DB contains DimCurrency table.
I copied the sql from the tutorial here.
I actually have a DimCurrency table in my copy of AdventureWorksDW.
Here’s the design view of DimCurrency and a sample of the data contained in DimCurrency and the On Fail configuration

Thank you for your reply. I changed the error handling as you suggested on the 2nd lookup to redirect to unmatched rows. Now I get all greet. I don't have the conditional split as in your diagram. But also, nothing appears to have
happened in the DB. Aren't the rows in my text file supposed to be added to the FactCurrencyRate table?
How do I get a conditional split?
Rich P
OK, sorry I forgot to reply you back.
Conditional Split was just dummy task. Ignore it.
Manipulate the data in such way that you get matching records.
Inside Source, for first 2 rows I put the dates which are available in DimDate.
1.00010001,ARS,7/1/2005 0:00,0.99960016
1.00010001,ARS,2/5/2006 0:00,1.001001001
1.00020004,ARS,9/5/2001 0:00,0.99990001
1.00020004,ARS,9/6/2001 0:00,1.00040016
1.00050025,ARS,9/7/2001 0:00,0.99990001
1.00050025,ARS,9/8/2001 0:00,1.001001001
Then in OLE DB Destination, I loaded the rows to TestFactTable.
(Now, you don't even need NO MATCH OUTPUT as there are matching records here)

SQL Server 2008 R2 Std with SQL Server 2005 Express Subscriptions

If we have SQL Server 2005 Express Merge Replication Subscriptions that synch to a SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition. Do
the Subscriptions still have same file size limitations even though they synch to a Proper Standard Version of SQL Server 2008?
If so what are these limitations?
What happens in the instance where by the server file becomes huge then the Subscriptions will not allow the data to replicate
as the Express Subscription engine has a file size limitation - or does this not matter??

You will get messages on your SQL Server Express servers that the merge agent cannot write to the SQL Express database. These messages are difficult to debug as you don't get a warning you have exceeded the size limit on the subscriber.

Need to connect SQL Server 2008 and CR 2008 via OLE DB SQL Server Provider

I am relatively new to Crystal but have done some minor design/layout work in the past. I just purchased CR 2008 and dowloaded a Eval Copy of SQL Server 2008 to build test reports that will then be uploaded to a hosted web app we use for use with live data.
I am having some trouble, however, getting SQL server and CR 08 to talk the way I need them to. We have to use the OLE DB for SQL Server Provider connection for the reports to work in our hosted live environment but I cannot get this to work on SQL 2008. The server never appears in the Server dropdown and if I manually type it get the following error:
failed to open connection.
Detail ADO Error Code: 0x80004005
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Description: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access is denied.
SQL State: 08001
Native Error: 17 [Database Vendor Code: 17 ]
I am setting up the connection through the Database Expert choosing the OLE DB (ADO) folder and then selecting 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server' then entering my server name, user id, password, and Database name.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice. I have installed the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Analysis Service 10.0 OLEDB Provider pack.
My provider/host does use SQL Server 2005 but since I can't get a free Evaluation version of it I have to use 2008 for my local copy. I have searched the web over (including here) and cannot find an answer to my issue.
I cannot use SQL Server Express version because our copy of the DB is too big. I cannot use the Native 10 provider as the reports will not work once I have uploaded them to the live data.
any help anyone can provide for this would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you and sorry if this is a dupe post. I have searched everywhere and cannot find the answer.

Hello,
Go to Microsoft's site and download their OLE DB test tool and test the connection. Did you install the MS client tools to test the connection also?
As a test try creating an ODBC System DSN just to verify you can connect and create a report also.
And don't use the SA account, MS 2008 disabled it, sort of, so you'll have to create a new account and grant permissions to any table you need to use.
SQL 2008 changed security model big time so it's not the same as 2005 once was....
Good luck
Don
