Conversion from Output Designer IFD to LC ES Designer Fails

Hi,
OS: Windows XP
Product: LC ES 8.2 turnkey JBoss/MySQL
Product: Output Desinger 5.5 (5.5.1.280)
My customer is trying to convert Output Designer IFD Jetforms to LiveCycle ES and getting some strange errors.  Ultimately, the process fails which is annoying.
Using File > Open in LC ES Designer 8.2 (turnkey JBoss/MySQL trial install) my customer selects the IFD file to convert and promptly receives several error dialogs (paraphrased here):
1. Error #5907 - No printers found; In fact there are quite a few printers defined on this customers Windows XP system, the just happen to be network printers.  We attempted to define a raw file printer as default, but it didn't change the outcome or the appearance of this error.
2. Error #5903 - You must select a printer before saving; I assume this is a response error to Error #5907
3. Error #1084 - Unable to open configuration file ...\convertIFD\config\pdf.icf
4. Conversion Error: 50463490
     Running: ....\ConvertIFDShell.exe
     Input: \
     Output: \
     Options: [a bunch of options here]
IS there any other information I can collect to support this investigation and are there any known incompatibilities between LC 8.2 and OD 5.5 ?
Regards,
Jason Hendry.

Hi Paul,
Many thanks for your reply.
I suspected as much since the full text of the conversion errors indicates printers associated with the original document were missing.  However, here's an interesting twist in the tale...
Taking an example form from my customer, on my local setup of LC ES 8.2 and Output Desinger 5.6, I can convert the document successfully.
Additionally, I can open and save the document in Output Designer 5.6 (which asks me to change the printer definition to "PDF").  When I give the document to my customer, he is still unable to convert the 5.6 IFD using LC ES Designer 8.2 (and Output Designer 5.5).
Seems like a fundamental problem between LC Designer 8.2 and Output Designer 5.5.  The attached is indicative of the forms that exhibit this problem.
Jason Hendry.

Remove the .text extension - IFD file types are not allowed :-(

  • Conversion from BO 5.1.9 Deski to BO XI 3.1 SP3 Webi

    Hi Everyone,
    As part of of our project, we are executing a BO upgrade project and have undertaken BO report migration and conversion from deskI in BO 5.1.9 to WebI in BO XI 3.1. The conversion of reports was assumed to be carried out through the report conversion tool (RCT) of BO XI 3.1 SP3. However, RCT has failed in converting all deskI reports to WebI.
    Hence, we are seeking your help & assistance in finding out, the optimal way of resolving the problem. Can you please indicate:
    1. Is there any hotfix/patch that SAP can provide for making RCT more robust resulting in elimination of conversion errors/influence the success rate of report conversion?
    2. If no hotfix for RCT is present, can we get quick answers from SAP through the alliance for resolution of these report conversion errors? We have received the below errors when we made an attempt at report conversion
    1.Breaks in Web Intelligence can only be set on objects present in the block
    2 Objects cannot be hidden in Web Intelligence documents
    3.Page setup options are not implemented in Web Intelligence (First page number, page order, scale, Fit to N pages)
    4.Across options for crosstabs are not available in Web Intelligence -5.Detail variables have no associated dimension in Web Intelligence 6.Conditional or permanent Hide Header not available in Web Intelligence 7.Function not available in Web Intelligence

    13.Unsupported Data Provider
    Anticipating your help and cooperation at the earliest. Please let me know if you need any more information.
    Many Thanks & Regards,
    Sandeep

    Report Conversion Tool cannot guarantee 100% conversion rates. It's imposible due to functionality differences that still exist between Full Client/Deski and Webi documents.
    If you have a report that won't convert - you will have to manualy re-create it in Webi. It'll show you if design you use is even possible there or not.
    As to the list of errors you provided - each one has to be reviewed and investigated to see why it happens.
    Like #3 - might be due to the fact that Webi has no page options or #13 might indicate unsupported data provider, lust like the error says.
    You might want to open a support Incident to properly investigate all the errors you received, but keep in mind - 100% conversion is not possible unless you use simplest reports.

    It is not a good idea to use string dates for predicates in WHERE clauses.
    Use DATETIME or DATE in predicates.
    If you are not interested in the time part of DATETIME, use DATE datatype.

    SELECT CONVERT(DATE, getdate());

  • Batch level settings conversion from plant-to-plant to material-level

    If someone has worked on conversion of Batch level settings within SAP from plant-to-plant to material-level batch management, please let me know what are the challenges involved in doing this. Thanks.

    Check help !!!
    To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to batch numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
    If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical.  In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
    When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
    Standard settings
    In the standard delivery batches are uniquely defined at material level.
    Activities
    To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
    1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
    2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
    3. Choose Batch level -> Conversion.
    4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
    Further notes
    Note that you cannot reset conversion from plant level to a higher level in the standard.
    If you create a client by copying an existing client, initially, there are no settings in the target client at batch level. The system makes the settings in the target client only when you have carried out an activity (maintaining master data or posting a goods movement, for example). The client level is not transported. If you copy a client with client level, you have to manually set the client level in the target system.

  • About the effect for batch level conversion from material to plant level

    Dears,
    Now  we use batch management at material level in our system, now we want to change to batch level from material level to plant level, what effects or risks it will bring during the process of conversion?

    Hi
    check the following SAP help link it is very helpful:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/es/d2/1d4b6e5733d1118b3f0060b03ca329/content.htm
    at the link you can find the following
    Specify batch level and activate status management
    In this IMG activity, you specify the following:
    the level at which batch numbers are unique
    whether batch status management is active in the client
    the plants in which batch status management is active
    the initial status of new batches
    Batch level
    Batch numbers can be unique at the following levels:
    at plant level
    at material level
    at client level for a material
    If you choose plant level, the batch number is unique in conjunction with the respective material and the plant. If you choose material level, the batch number is unique together with the material. At client level, the batch number is unique in the whole client.
    To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
    If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
    When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
    Standard settings
    In the standard R/3 System, batches are unique at plant level.
    Activities
    To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
          1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
          2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
          3. Select function Batch level -> Conversion.
          4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
    Further notes
    Note that you cannot reset conversion from plant level to a higher level in the standard.
    If you create a client by copying an existing client, initially, there are no settings in the target client at batch level. The system makes the settings in the target client only when you have carried out an activity (maintaining master data or posting a goods movement, for example).
    SETTINGS BEFORE/AFTER CLIENT COPY:
    Source client Target client
    Client level Material level
    Material level Material level
    Plant level Plant level
    Batch status management
    Batch status management is an additional function provided by the standard R/3 System.
    Standard settings
    Batch status management is not active in the standard R/3 system.
    Activities
    To activate batch status management, proceed as follows:
          1. Choose Batch status management active.
          2. Save the new setting and choose Back.
          3. Choose Batch status management -> conversion.
          4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
    Further notes
    Batch status management is linked to the batch level. At material and at plant level, the status management settings are valid within the client, that is for all plants. However, if you have defined batches to be unique at plant level, you have to select the plants in which status management is to be active using function Plants with status management.
    If you activate status management, all existing batches are assigned status 'unrestricted'. If you deactivate status management, the systems transfers all restricted batches to unrestricted stock within conversion. Restricted stock only exists if status management is active.
    If you create a client by copying an existing client, status management is automatically activated if batches exist in the target client, independent of the settings in the source client. If no batches exist in the target client, it is not activated. In this case, you have to activate or deactivate status management manually, if required.
    Plants with batch status management
    Activities
    To select the plants in which status management is to be active, proceed as follows:
          1. Set characteristic Batch status management for those plants in which batch status management is to be active.
          2. Save your settings and choose function Back.
          3. Choose function Batch status management -> conversion
          4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
    Initial status of a new batch
    Using this function, you can specify for each material type which initial status new batches are to be assigned. However, if you use a quality management system, this specifies the status of the batches.
    Hope it will help
    Best Regards

  • Best practice video conversion from download

    I am looking for best practice for video conversions.
    I am downloading adobe recordings via this method:
    http://server.adobeconnect.com/xyz/output/filename.zip?download=zip
    From here, I have been converting the FLVs using either freemake video converter or FLV converter. I have tried converting into AVI (XVID), MOV, WMV, etc. (I need the file to be under 600 MB for an hour of recording, therefore it is going to need some type of compression).
    My goal is to import the video into Sony Vegas Pro 10 for further editting. I have found that whatever method I use, the video and audio does not sync properly about 50% of the time. The video time is longer than the audio time usually. Or that there are other various errors, such as the video just freezing halfway through the video.
    I have been using connect for a few years now, but with each update I find (connect 8, 9, etc), that the problems are getting worse. At this point I am just wasting time trying to convert into various formats using various codecs just trying to luck upon one where the video is at least without error.
    What methods are others using to convert the FLV to a workable editable format?

    Can't the FLV files be changed into many different formats through Apple's
    Compressor or Adobe Media Encoder? These formats can then be opened in
    standard video editing software for editing.

    Yes, I use this as a last resort, as the quality of capture this was is
    signifcatnly lower. As well as it is a much more time consuming process. I
    sometimes have over 50 parts of 1 hour video. To use camtasia, you need
    first to record it, then it must be saved in a camtasia format, and then
    lastly rendered into avi or wmv. Therefore, it is does take awhile.
    Really, I feel there shouldnt be so many errors in the conversion process,
    but I am finding the FLV recordings themselves have problems. This last
    file I am looking at, even the recording playback on adobe connect, has
    serious issues with audio and video sync. A problem that is all too common

  • Time Conversion from Local to UTC Help! - Daylight Savings Problem?

    Hi,
    I am trying to use the generic conversion of local time to UTC time.  I thought I had everything working since I use the "Get Date/Time in Seconds" and then convert to "Seconds to Date/Time" witht the "to UTC" flag set true.  Then I convert back to a timestamp.
    I thought I had everything working until I hit Daylight Savings for the Pacific Standard Time.  Now the Labview is off by 1 hour!
    Is there an update to the Subvi's that do this?  Is this a known error?  Please help.   Thank you!
    Attachments:
    test25_LocalToUTC_Time.vi ‏8 KB

    Here is the path you are doing that is causing the logic to fall apart for you.
    1.  You are getting the current time.  In your images, it is 12:41 pm PDT which is 7:41 pm GMT
    2.  You are asking for the date/time record (that cluster that breaks out everything) but are saying it is UTC, so you get a date/time record that 19:41 UTC (7:41 pm).  And the DST flag is 0.  (Because UTC doesn't observe daylight savings time.)
    3.  Now  you are taking that date/time record and converting back to an actual date/time.  You don't wire up the UTC flag so it defaults to false.  Thus the date/time record is interpreted as local.  That DST flag is still 0 in your cluster.  So you are actually converting the time to 7:41 pm PST, which is actually 8:41 PDT.  (+1 hour for spring forward based on the month/date info.)
    4.  You are displaying that time stamp in the indicator labelled "Current Date/Time (UTC)", but it is not truly UTC, it is actually the conversion of a local time from PST to PDT, and it is not even the current local time.  It is actually a "local" time 8 hours into the future.  If you put the carat into that indicator's display format, you'll see that the UTC time is in the future as well.  You call it UTC, but you are displaying a future local time.
    The inconsistent conversions from local to UTC, and not accounting for the change of the DST flag from daylight time to UTC are what is confusing you.  You kind of get lucky during standard time because the DST flag is 0 for both local standard time and UTC.  But the conversions are still wrong, but it is a case of two wrongs are making it look right.  Even in standard time your input timestamp and your output timestamp indicator don't match which you would see if you used an Equals? function on them.

  • Unexpected implict conversion from unitless to unit

    If I drop a constant unitless double value on a diagram and a doube indicator in the front panel, with some kind of units, and connect both, I get a broken wire, i.e. no implicit conversion from unitless to units.
    If I drop a constant unitless double value on a diagram and connect it to both input choices of the buit in select, connect some value to the selector, and connect the output of the selector to a double indicator with some kind of units, I get a broken wire, i.e. no implicit conversion from unitless to units.
    If I drop two constant double values on a diagram, one unitless and the other with units, and connect each to the two inputs of the selector, connect to the selector a constant that selects the unitless constant, and connect the output of the selector to a double indicator with the same units as the input with units, I get all valid connections and an implicit conversion from unitless to the base unit of the input.  This is a bit unexpected, shouldn't I get a broken wire in there somewhere?

    Okay, it's a slow Friday so here is what I found.
    1. If we connect one unitless input and one input with units to a select function we receive a broken run arrow only when the the true input has units.
    2. If both inputs have units but do not match, we receive a broken run arrow regardless of input placement.
    3. In Range and Coerce will actually coerce units, it is the only simple primitive I found that does this.
    4. Stuff gets really, really wierd with units. Follow these steps:
         a. Create four double constants, two unitless and two "m"
         b. Drop a select function and an "In range and coerce" function
         c. Wire one "m" to the true input on select and one into the upper limit of the in range function
         d. Wire one unitless numeric constant to the false input of select and one to the lower limit of the in range function.
         e. Delete the Select function
         f. Undo
    In conclusion: LabVIEW units, how do they work?  If I have time next week I'll try to ask around.

  • Getting ÿþ as saved conversations from Lync in Outlook in Office 2013

    Hi,
    I've been trying to get to the bottom of this and have found similar posts, but no one seems to have an answer.
    When I IM someone using Lync 2013, they get a pop up notification but instead of the message they see ÿþ<.  Once they open the chat window, they can see my typed text.  Occasionally, certain people can't see the first line of my chat, but as
    long as they keep the chat window open, they can see everything new I type.
    All my conversations that are saved in outlook show ÿþ< for the text and are unreadable.  I've disabled the saving of conversations because they have become worthless.
    I believe it has to do with BOM but have not been able to find a way to fix this.
    If I copy a conversation from the chat window and paste it into Microsoft Word it shows ÿþ<, but if I paste it into notepad the conversation appears.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I've tried changing the preferred encoding for outgoing messages: to Unicode (UTF-8) in Outlook, but this had no effect and I can't find a similar option in Lync 2013.
    (I had inserted a screenshot here, but am unable to because I am unable to figure out how to get my account "verified")
    I enabled logging for Lync and the event IDs that come up are 1, 11 and 12, to which I cannot find any information for at the moment.
    Any help and or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Did the issue happen only for you or for multiple users?
    Please try to delete Lync User Profile and information on Registry, then repair Office 2013.
    The path of Lync User Profile: %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync
    The path for information on Registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]

Also, when I go to enter a new event in google calendar, I have to click the cursor in the box to type the event (it used to let me just start typing) or else it flips out and starts jumping to day view or another month.

  • Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf

    Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
    ""This above link (thread:834599) is from a case back in 2011 that claims to solve this problem, but it does not solve this problem. I think that customer only cared about having continuous page numbering, not discrete page numbering per sheet.
    ========================
    I still have this issue in Acrobat XI and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. I keep upgrading to no avail. This regression has resulted in a huge time drain for me. If you fixed it, please explain how I can get my hands on the resolution.
    Previous versions of Excel and Adobe Acrobat enabled flexibility around the "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) token, depending on context and usage. The "# of pages" token could represent EITHER the number of pages in the workbook OR the number of pages in the tab/sheet, depending on how you generated the PDF:
    You could select "Selected Sheets" and then select all or some of the individual sheets in the workbook, and the PDF would honor the discrete numbering of each of the sheets, so the first page of each sheet was p1 and the "# of pages" was the number of pages in the sheet; not the number of pages in the workbook; or
    You could select "Entire Workbook" and the PDF would honor continuous page numbers across all sheets, as a single document.
    Now, it only honors the total number of pages in the workbook, regardless of the method you use to publish to PDF: saving as PDF, printing to PDF, using "createPDF" from Acrobat plugin to Excel's menu ribbon; selecting all sheets, some sheets, or Entire Workbook; automatic First page number or "1" under Page Setup > Page> First page number. (This last option, btw, does restart every sheet at p1, but it hardly makes sense if the total number of pages is still the total number in the workbook instead of the number in the sheet.)
    I spent a lot of time trying each which way that the blog posts recommended and have tried this on multiple versions of Excel and Acrobat now.
    NONE of these time-consuming experiments gave me what I wanted.They all insist that "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) is the total number of pages in the workbook or the total number of pages in the selected sheets combined.
    The numbering are correct in Excel Page Layout.
    The same issue happens when using LibreOffice calc. (Although, I never tested with Libre Office before, so I don't know that it ever worked).
    The workaround now is to create PDF for each spreadsheet one at a time, and then compile them using the Acrobat combine/binder feature. All alternatives are extremely time consuming and tedious. It used to be automatic. This is a major regression that has gone untreated for over a year now, maybe two years.
    My task takes infinitely more time to complete than it did with previous versions of Acrobat. That means that days are added to my project, when the functionality used to enable a quick pdf generation that was ready for review, now I have to do this very manual time-consuming set of steps to generate a draft. As the project has grown and more tabs are added, my pdf-generation task takes that much longer. We require lots of drafts. It used to be easy and fast. Now it is hard and time-consuming.
    In my opinion, the problem is not Excel; it is Acrobat because it was introduced with an upgrade in Acrobat, not an upgrade in Excel. The problem was introduced in Acrobat 9 or 10. Please provide a patch or add-on or something.

    If you are setting up the page numbers in Excel, the resulting PDF would display the the page numbers created in Excel. On Excel 2010 support page, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/insert-and-remove-page-numbers-on-worksheets- HA010342619.aspx#BM2) is stated the following "tip" which indicates by default Excel 2010 starts numbering each tab with 1. Exel's workaround tip is below - 
    Set a different number for the starting page
    Tip   To number all of the worksheet pages in a workbook sequentially, first add page numbers to all worksheets in a workbook, and then use the following procedure to begin the page number for each worksheet with the appropriate number. For example, if your workbook contains two worksheets that with both be printed as two pages, you would use this procedure to begin the page numbering for the second worksheet with the number 3.
    On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher next to Page Setup.
    On the Page tab, in the First page number box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.
    Tip   To use the default numbering system, type Auto in the First page number box.
    Also helpful in the same section is the note on viewing page numbers. To see if the page numbering dilemma originates in Excel make sure you are using the Page Layout View see below:
    Hide All
    If you want numbers shown on pages when you print a worksheet  you can insert page numbers in the headers or footers of the worksheet pages. Page numbers that you insert are not displayed on the worksheet in Normal view — they are shown only in Page Layout view and on the printed pages.
    Overall it may be easier not to create the page numbers in Excel but instead create then in Acrobat using the Headers and Footers option in Acrobat.  I hope this helps - it sounds like a frustrating issue you are experiencing.
