Contribute needs to remove the administrative settings

Starting today, I lost my administrative connection to my website. When I try to connect again, I get these messages:
The administrative settings for ... are invalid. To continue connecting to the website, Contribute needs to remove the administrative settings, including users and roles. Are you sure you want to continue?
I have never seen this message before. How can I reconnect to my website without having Contribute remove my adminstrative settings? Or is there a way to save my settings and restore later?

This happens because you have moved to site to new host, the host name and the IP address will differ from the one saved in the cthubxxxxx.csi file inside _mm folder in the site. Or the IP address is not static and got changed.
Solution 1: Click Yes (All the adminitrative settings will be removed). And Administer the site again, create new roles and configure the role settings accordingly.
Solution 2: If you have access to the server, Open the cthubxxxxx.csi file inside _mm folder of your site and replace the old hostname and IP address with newer one. Then reconnect.
Hope this solves your problem.

Changed FTP - "contribute cannot remove the administrative settings"

We developed a major site at a temporary subdomain on our server. Then, we changed that subdomain (to replace an old version of the site with this new version).
I created a new FTP account for this new location. (The files are at the same place on the server, but under a new http:// location) This FTP account works fine with other FTP client software.
When I try to create a new Contribute connection (using CS4), it notices the site has moved and asks whether I want to remove the administrative settings. I say "yes." When I do, the error message I keep getting is "contribute cannot remove the administrative settings."
I double checked file permissions for all the files within the /_mm subdirectory. They were set at 644 (for files), so I changed them to all to 664 to include access by the new username.
Any ideas as to why Contribute can't "clear the slate?" And is there some way to force this, even erasing files manually?
Best,
Greg

Hi,
     Can you change the ownership of the files and folders in the _MM folder and also that of _MM folder, to the new FTP user, and then try removing the administration settings?
     Also, I wanted to ask, does the new FTP user belongs to the same user group as that of the old user, if not, try adding the new FTP user to the same group and then try removing the administration.
     Hope this helps.

To continue connecting to your website, you must repair or remove its administrative settings

Hello.
When trying to connect to my website, I'm getting a prompt saying the files appear to have been recently moved.....yadayada. I realise it's like this since we have changed to a new host since I see our old one there correct? OK-so my question is what happens after I click that button that says to remove the administrative settings for your website and continue connecting?
I've been told to update our website and I don't have a whole lot of knowledge about it. I do connect to it at work through ftp for uploading pix and access to cpanel but that's about it.
The person that did the site no longer works with me, but I know that he used Contribute3 (Macromedia) for at least some of the site, so I'm assuming the new Contribute will work.
I really don't want to screw things up clicking that button and somehow mess up our site.
Thanks for the help!
Jim

Thanks very much Dominic:
I was able to open that cthubxxxxx.csi file in text editor and I assume I just put in http://www.liquidweb.com (in place of our old host in at least 3 spots) since they are our new host? As far as the IP addres goes, where do I get that or find it? Is it the IP address for the host (liquidweb)? I assume I call them for this information?
Just one other question:
I noticed on the cthubxxxxx.csi file it says macromedia_dreamweaver_hub. I assume that means the site was made with dreamweaver? I assume I will be able to edit with Contribute?
Thanks again for your help-
Jim

Contribute could not read the shared settings file.....

We are using Contribute 4 via FTP connection. Suddenly, I
have one user today that is getting the following error when trying
to connect to things she should have access to.
The error: "Contribute could not read the shared settings
file for this Website because the file has been corrupted. To
re-create the shared settings file, an administrator must
administrate the website again."
As a sidenote, this user had recently been sent approximately
41 files for review, I have no idea if there is a connection or
not. This feature has worked fine for them before.
Anyone see this problem before? I did check and I have other
users that can access and edit the Website just fine. It seems
specific to this one user.
Thanks - Lainie

I think this has something to do with the PNG plugin.

I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id?

I will give my laptop to someone else, how do I unlink my apple id? Is it just the app store unlink? Do I need to remove the apps I downloaded with my id? Will they get removed when I unlink my apple id?
Are there any other procedures I need to take into account?
Thanks

You need to remove all software that you acquired from the Mac App Store, including newer versions of OS X. These are all registered to you and encoded with your Apple ID in the licensed copy. You cannot legally pass any of the software to the new owner, which is why Apple states to erase the Mac and return it to the version of OS X that shipped from the factory on the Mac. You must also remove any older Apple software that you installed by DVD or pass the DVD to the new owner with the Mac.

How do you remove a device off of an Apple ID? I have an I pod and an I phone hooked up to the same account need to remove the I pod and start up his own apple account.

I have an iPod and iPhone connected to my apple account. I need to remove the iPod as it receives all my text messages. I want to sign him up with his own account and not use mine.

Yes, that erases everything from the iPod.
He can redownload his purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

When in Windows 7 (using bootcamp obviously) I am able to see my files in my Mac partition. When I try to access them I am told that I need permission from the administrator. How do I give myself permission to access files between the two partitions?

You may need to configure the connection settings in the deployment descrip

Hi All
I am new to BPEL and going through Order Booking Tutorial (using 10.1.3.4 version of opmn ) .
I have a problem in 'Designing the Database Adapter to Insert Data' Chapter.
I have installed Oracle 10g Express Edition and BPEL Process Manager on my local system.
In the Example it has been asked to create a daabase connection with Third Party JDBC Driver. Instead I have created a database connection with Oracle(JDBC) Driver.So i didnt have to register any third party driver.
I cud access the Order/OrderItems table as well .
I Deployed the same on the server.But while running the process I get following error--
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
nested exception is:

See root exception for the specific exception. You may need to configure the connection settings in the deployment descriptor (i.e. $J2EE_HOME/application-deployments/default/DbAdapter/oc4j-ra.xml) and restart the server.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I have checked several post on this error but every post talks about third party database.I have used Oracle Database only so why/What shud I change anything in oc4j-ra.xml?? This is my doubt .
Pls help me on this .Also Let me knowe in my case is there any need to create the datasource.?I am low at concept of database.
Pls help

Do I need to remove the application?

I am working on iPlanet 6.0SP4.Do i need to remove the old application when I redeploy the new one. Because there is also an option called "override" when doing the deployment, what that mean?
If I didn't remove the application, and redeploy with override option, is it possible that two same classes will be stored in the ldap server with different id

Hi,
See when you deploy any ear application it first copy it in "<iAS-install-dir>/ias/JAR" dir and extract all the war/jar modules in it. And after it picks the modules from here and explode in respective directory under "<iAS-install-dir>/ias/APPS or .../APPS/modules". When you say Override modules, it replaces all the old modules having the same name with the new one and then explode them.
Moreover when you deploy any module it will make entries in LDAP under "Application server/6.0/J2EE-Modules/<war/jar-module-name>" and for each Servlet/JSP/EJB under "Application server/ClassDef/<GUID>".
So when you redeploy same application again and you don't change the module names then it will overwrite this registry information as the module names and GUID is same (in this case you have to restart iAS). But if you reassemble application using deploytool, then it will create new GUIDs for each components in your app and the second entry will be change in this case.
Now when ever plugin will send the request for the new app it will read GUID from the "J2EE-Modules/<war/jar-module-name>" node and will send it to the KXS and the KXS will see what class to load after looking at "ClassDef/<GUID>" node.
If the modules have the same name as original Application, then the old GUID entries in registry are of no use and will make iAS slow only as it reads the whole registry while starting.
Please feel free to ask further questions.

If I'm selling an iPhone 3G, do I need to remove the SIM card?

I'm putting my old iPhone 3G on ebay. Other than resetting and wiping it clean, do I need to remove the SIM card as well? I haven't used that phone in years and there is nothing on there I need. I'm just concerned that the new owner would get my personal information.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Must people would sell a phone without a simcard

Is it true? Do I need to remove the battery?

Another post mentions the need to remove the battery when the laptop is on AC power I hadn't heard this before. Should I be removing the battery when I have it plugged in? (Which is most of the time)

Hi
When computer is connected to wall outlet it will charge the battery until 100%. Is it harmful to battery if it is kept at 100% charged for long time.
This is now becoming an urban myth Once upon a time it might have some basis in fact however with lithium-ion batteries it doesn't matter. For a start, they are not constantly charged, as this would cause an explosion, so they charge to full and then the charging stops.
Some articles state it is best to keep battery at 40-50% when it is not to be used for long time. How to achieve when it is always attached to the computer?
That's only required for long term storage when the battery isn't being used to help prevent it aging.
Lithium-ion batteries whether being used or not slowly degrade from the very first day they leave the factory, you might as well have it in the laptop even if you use the mains 99% of the time to get some benefit of an un-interruptible power supply rather than leave it in the box where it will age anyway.

Phil
