Critical issue for language lab! Quicktime Streaming broken for Guest
An issue reported in January is still apparently unfixed because we're experiencing the same problem as Jeremy. Here is his message, which had no replies (his message is between the dashes):
Quicktime streaming and the Leopard Guest Account
Posted: Jan 28, 2008 4:21 PM
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1367366
If I set the account to be managed it doesn't work. I cannot access QuickTime streams using Leopard's built in Guest account. If I set the the streaming transport to http I get "403 forbidden", if I set it to udp I get "-3285 Disconnected". Anyone know how to fix this? I do not have the "Website Restrictions" turned on for this account. That is to say, I have the the controls enabled to block specific applications, but I set it to "Allow unrestricted access to websites"
(on this point, you can't NOT have the parentalcontrols proxy running for some, infuriating, reason. If you want to manage which Apps a given account access to, the parentalcontrols proxy is enabled, and cannot be bypassed, even if select not to filter web content).
We set up a fresh Guest Account on our new iMacs that just came in. They're running 10.5.6 and Quicktime 7.5.5 (which I re-installed in an attempt to fix the issue). Like Jeremy, I get the Disconnected error when Quicktime is set to UDP and Forbidden when it's set to HTTP.
I have tried to use the latest Server Admin Tools to disable/enable Parental Controls and Application launching management, to no avail. I've repaired permissions several times. I've copied the Internet plug-ins to the Guest account directory (System - Library - User Template - English.lproj - Library - Internet Plug-Ins). I've tried the same thing with the Quicktime Preferences file from the admin account in which streaming is working. I have also tried giving every Internet plug-in max read-write permissions for every user and the folder, too. I disabled Parental Controls in the Guest Account. Nothing works.
We're going to have to completely re-make our lab image and re-image the lab, which is a huge undertaking because of this long-standing bug.
I believe I have partially fixed the issue.
Disabling Parental Controls in the Guest account when logged into the Guest account does nothing, despite the prompt for an admin username and password. One must log into an admin account directly to turn them off via the Accounts control panel.
Turning Parental Controls off allows us to once again view streaming movies via the Quicktime plug-in in a webpage. Hooray!
However, Parental Controls remains problem, so it behooves Apple to figure out why it is interfering with basic functionality like this. Another issue turning off Parental Controls solved is an issue with Adobe's Flash plug-in in the Panaorama web site, a language learning textbook. With Parental Controls on, the voice recording functionality via Flash is broken, too.

A critical issue for WebService and HTTP Analyzer
According to the tutorial Building Web Services(the url is :http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe11jdev/11/ws/ws.html)
the source code of HelloService.java
============================================
package annotation;
import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.xml.ws.BindingType;
import javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPBinding;
@WebService(serviceName="HelloService")
@BindingType(SOAPBinding.SOAP11HTTP_BINDING)
public class HelloService {
public HelloService() {
@WebMethod
public String sayHello(String s){
return "Hello " +s;
===================================================
I created a simple WebService named HelloService, but when run TestWebservice
it open HTTP Analyzer to test , enter a string "Gary" and click send request,
it was expected that it response a string "Hello gary",
However, HttpAnalyzer display "The Select Message is not soap message"
under the tab "Http content", it show me that:
==============================================
500 Server Error
The following error occurred: [code=CANT_CONNECT_LOOPBACK] Cannot connect due to potential loopback problems
==============================================
Expecting any suggestions for this problem, thanksHi,
It sounds like you need to add "localhost" to the exclusion list in your proxy settings. You need to stop the "HTTP Analyzer" first, then go to Tools->Preferences->Web Browser and Proxy. In the exclusion list add in "localhost|127.0.0.1".
Give this a go and get back to me if there is a still a problem,

I have a private vlan 50 and the public vlan 51. The private ssid seems to work and allow connectivity to the internet but I don't understand with the same configuration the Public ssid doesn't seem to work.
I get this output when trying to connect with my cell phone.

I know the bridge-group have to be identical to the sub interface number and vlan number
This is true for all other vlans except for native vlan. For native vlan sub-interfaces bridge group number always should be 1. In your case, if vlan 50 is the native vlan (192.168.2.x/24 belong vlan) then configure bridge-group 1 under those .50 sub-interfaces. Then everything should work :)
It is ideal if you could put AP management (BVI IP) into separate vlan & two user groups put vlan 50 & 51. Here is a sample configuration where vlan 110 is Mgmt & vlan 12,13 for user vlans.

Screenshot of Error in Inbox:
This is critical issue for us and is showstopper for Go-Live. So any kind of help is highly appreciated.
Thank you,
TanmayIf its Java only error then there wont be any dump in ST22.
Strange issue for you, in general if we get 500 error, there should be details of it in the same page.
You said this issue is occuring for only one user, is it getting replicated every time?
You are also seeing the same error when u login as that particular user?
Do one thing, assign him the Content Admin role and then do the preview of this iView form content admin and see if ur still seeing this error.

Critical Issue - Locking Error - Stateless BC4J Application
Hi,
We are using "Stateless" mode in our BC4J project. Our View form done with Datawebbeans, Edit Form and Submit Edit Form done with Datatags. We are using Jdeveloper 3.2.
In multi-user environment, we are noticing that if two users open the same record at the same time, for editing, it is allowing both the users to edit the same record. We expect the second user to get an error message something like "Row Has been Changed - Re-query to see the change". But its not the case.
This is a very critical issue for us and any help from JDEV team is appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Virinchi
nullThe following information from Jdeveloper 3.1 Help (User Guides - Developing Business Components - Understanding Transactions - About Application Modules and Transactions) might be useful:
Client applications connect to databases and manage transactions by using the oracle.jbo.Transaction interface. Some useful methods of the Transaction interface with regard to Application Modules are:
commit - Commit the transaction; saves all changes to the database. If the database connection is established, the transaction is implicitly started.
connect - Attempt to establish a connection to the given database URL.
disconnect - Disconnect the server from the database.
**getLockingMode** - Get the preferred locking mode for this transaction. Currently the locking mode defaults to LOCK_PESSIMISTIC.
rollback - Rollback the transaction; discard all changes.
setLockingMode - Set the preferred locking mode for this transaction. Changing the locking mode affects only subsequent locks that are placed
If you have an Application Module and DataSource defined with Data Tags like this:
<%@ taglib uri="/webapp/DataTags.tld" prefix="jbo" %>
<jbo:ApplicationModule configname="dbproject3.Dbproject3Module.Dbproject3ModuleLocal"
id="Dbproject3Module" username="db" password="project" />
<jbo:DataSource id="ds" appid="Dbproject3Module" viewobject="BlChangesView" >
</jbo:DataSource>
Then you can access the Application Module, using Java Code like this:
jsp:useBean class="oracle.jbo.html.databeans.RowsetNavigator" id="rsn" scope="page" >
<%
rsn.setReleaseApplicationResources(false);
rsn.initialize(pageContext,"JSPFrame_dbproject3_Dbproject3Module.BlChangesView");
oracle.jbo.Row row = rsn.getRowSet().last();
oracle.jbo.domain.Number num = ((oracle.jbo.domain.Number)row.getAttribute("ChangeCode"));
ccode = num.intValue();
out.println("<h2>Change Code, by webbean is: " + ccode);
%>
</jsp:useBean>
Use:
ApplicationModule am =rsn.getRowSet().getApplicationModule()
then get the transacton with
am.getTransaction()
Hope this helps.

Quicktime Streaming Server Live broadcast Issue
Hi All,
If someone could please help me with this, I have a Quicktime Streaming server set up in our DMZ with Nicecast being used to broadcast up to the server. When I enter the URL of the station in Internet Explorer Windows Media Player launches without any issue and plays the live broadcast. When I try to launch the URL in Firefox or Google Chrome for some reason the Quicktime plugin attempts to play the broadcast, plays about 10 seconds and stops. Any thoughts to why that is?
Thank You,
Brad
Message was edited by: Brad1313The embedded link plays on Windows in IE 7, Firefox 3.5 (Mac and Win), and Safari 4.0.2 Mac, all with QT 7.6.2. Below are some screenshots of the chat window where the stream plays from:
*This is Firefox 3.5 Mac:*
*This is Safari 4.0.2 Mac:*
*This is Firefox 3.5 Win:*
*This is IE 7:*
The issue with Safari and Firefox in the top two images is the code on the page needs to be fixed. This is what's there:
<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" WIDTH="90" HEIGHT="50" >
<PARAM NAME="src" VALUE=" icy://riotradio.dc-uoit.ca/riotradio" >
<PARAM NAME="autoplay" VALUE="true" >
<EMBED PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" SRC="http://www.theriotradio.com/chatbox/riotradio.mov" TYPE="image/x-quicktime" WIDTH="90" HEIGHT="50" QTSRC="icy://riotradio.dc-uoit.ca/riotradio" AUTOPLAY="true" >
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
and that's why you see the little QT window next to the 'Riot Radio' graphic and why you see the player window with the -2048 error code below it in the Safari screenshot. If the code is changed to this:
<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" WIDTH="90" HEIGHT="50">
<EMBED PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" SRC="http://www.theriotradio.com/chatbox/riotradio.mov" TYPE="image/x-quicktime" WIDTH="90" HEIGHT="50" AUTOPLAY="true">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
the little QT box should disappear and the player will display in the area below the 'Riot Radio' graphic. However, the '<OBJECT>' and '<EMBED>' tags are deprecated in favor of using Apple's javascript implementation of calling QT in web pages. This is also the reason that the QT plugin doesn't load in IE 7 (last image) -the 'Q' with the '?' mark on it.
Here's a sample of what could be used:
<head>
<script src="AC_QuickTime.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
QT_WriteOBJECT('http://www.theriotradio.com/chatbox/riotradio.mov','310','305',' ',
'autoplay','true',
'controller','true',
'align','middle');
</script>
</body>
You can pass this link:
http://developer.apple.com/internet/ieembedprep.html
along to your coder to have him look at what is recommended for QT embedding using javascript to make it work with IE 7/8 -it will also work with FF and Safari. The 'AC_QuickTime.js' javascript, shown in the code sample, can be downloaded from the page linked above and placed on the site. -
Is there an updated way of setting QuickTime streaming speed for iChat?
I've been using iChat screen share to help a friend. The first time we tried it, it worked well; the second time, however (same computers), the image of the screen I recieved was suddenly very low resolution (too low for me to see what I'm doing). It sometimes clears up after around 30-40 seconds, but once a window is moved, etc, the problem reoccurs, making the process tedious to the point that I don't think I'd go through this. I saw in a previous community tip that changing the streaming speed in Quicktime can resolve this issue; they specified that this must be done through the Quicktime icon in System Preferences, and not through the standard Quicktime app.. that was for OS 10.5.6; on my OS (10.6.8, and the new QT), Quicktime is now missing from the System Preferences panal : /.. I also saw a user comment on another site saying, "Basically, [the new] QTX lacks the option to pick your codec, frame size, data rate, and so on." So was QuickTime's streaming speed function lost, and do I really need Quicktime to accomplish better image quality for iChat? If it can't be fixed, is there a better screen sharing utility I can get that won't have these problems? Thanks for any help : )..
Hi,
Back before iChat 4 the Video part of iChat chats was based on the reading the app ttok from the Internet speed it could see.
This speed was directly effected by the then System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming tab setting.
Basically the Automatic Setting was read a 0 (zero) kbps.
The Fastest Setting of Intranet/LAN also got messed up (it would not return a figure iChat could use)
For that reason we used to Suggest that people use the 1.5Mbps T1/Intranet/LAN setting
This limited Video streaming by any app to 1500kbps both as Upload and Download (this is fact a rough figure based on using base 10 rather than the true binary based math involved)
At iChat 4 Apple made iChat see the Automatic setting as 384kbps
This should be fast enough for 4 way Video chats as the Host end. (the person that invites the others)
By Snow Leopard (iChat 5) the Quicktime Setting has gone in System Preferences.
The way iChat "reads" the Internet Speed is different and it is not restricted by Quicktime.
The only way to Cap iChat now is the App Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth Limit
Apple state the minimum Internet speed that iChat should have for Screen Sharing is 128kbps
Internet Speeds tends to be based on Binary multiple at lower speeds - 56kbps is max Dial-up Modem speed
128kbps is obviously twice that. The next speed split is like to be 265kbps
Check that you and your Buddy have at least 128kbps as Upload as well as download.

Ideally it should be faster as at that speed you can lose between 10 and 20% in the test and the overheads of running the connection to the ISP
Setting the Bandwidth (in iChat) at 500kbps at both ends can eradicate the variances you can get in slower Internet speeds.
In Snow Leopard Quicktime has become Quicktime X and does have issues playing some Quicktime 7 movies.
This also applies to Lion and Mountian Lion
However there are ways to install the Quicktime 7 Player that will cover the codecs that may not be played.
This info does not apply to iChat though.

Minimum requirements for Quicktime Streaming Server with +200 viewers
I'm planning on buying an Xserve to use it for streaming live video to about 200 or more viewers with Quicktime Streaming Server, at a bitrate of a 300 kbits/sec, that is 60 MBit/sec. I saw a second-hand Apple XServe G5 2x2.3Ghz. Is that enough, or would I need to buy the latest quad-core Xserve?
Maybe you should do some more homework before you buy:

Quicktime streaming and the Leopard Guest Account
If I set the account to be managed it doesn't work. I cannot access QuickTime streams using Leopard's built in Guest account. If I set the the streaming transport to http I get "403 forbidden", if I set it to udp I get "-3285 Disconnected". Anyone know how to fix this? I do not have the "Website Restrictions" turned on for this account. That is to say, I have the the controls enabled to block specific applications, but I set it to "Allow unrestricted access to websites"
(on this point, you can't NOT have the parentalcontrols proxy running for some, infuriating, reason. If you want to manage which Apps a given account access to, the parentalcontrols proxy is enabled, and cannot be bypassed, even if select not to filter web content)I believe I have partially fixed the issue.
Disabling Parental Controls in the Guest account when logged into the Guest account does nothing, despite the prompt for an admin username and password. One must log into an admin account directly to turn them off via the Accounts control panel.
Turning Parental Controls off allows us to once again view streaming movies via the Quicktime plug-in in a webpage. Hooray!
However, Parental Controls remains problem, so it behooves Apple to figure out why it is interfering with basic functionality like this. Another issue turning off Parental Controls solved is an issue with Adobe's Flash plug-in in the Panaorama web site, a language learning textbook. With Parental Controls on, the voice recording functionality via Flash is broken, too. -
Is it possible to obtain quicktime streaming server( QTSS) as a free down load ?Some thread (from this site) I followed last night turned out to be of no use.
I've had my 822 since launch and I have had flawless experience with the phone. Phone works like it should, text messaging and emails work. I think it does a random reboot about once a month if that.
I don't know what Nokia or VZW did to the 928's. It could either be a bad batch of devices they keep recycling to other customers when one sends it back in for being faulty or just poor QA done on the device.
The only thing I can think of is filing a complaint with the BBB and FCC that VZW keeps issuing faulty devices to their customers.
Reach out to one of the executives, http://aboutus.verizonwireless.com/leadership/executive/index.html and voice your anger that you are constantly receiving faulty devices. -
I am setting up quicktime streaming on my server I can access this from inside my firewall. But I cannot access it from outside the firewall. Does anyone have any suggestions.
After 10 forums and over a week of trying different suggestions, I still have not solved the issue with the present navigation system and it's relation to the QT movies.
I'm now converting some QT files into Flash FLV files. So far the pages I've converted do not exhibit these problems and many people have reported suddenly being able to see the videos whereas before they could not. For example see this page:
http://www,idriveinmovie.com/bltrailer_medium.htm
When encoded properly, a flv file can compare to the quicktime format in quality while decreasing it's size by about 50% and the JS used to access the file for the webpage seems to handle the caching of the page data differently than the Quicktime embed tag so that the buttons work fine as the flv downloads, which of course is a solution to my original problem.
Although Quicktime is my favorite web video media, for internet delivery without a streaming server it would seem the Flash FLV is the smarter choice right now. -
Newtek Tricaster to Quicktime Streaming Server
Anyone know if its possible to hook up QTSS to a NewTek Tricaster output?
The Newtek Tricaster only outputsa unicast Windows Media stream but we need our users to access it via the QTSS so its multicast.
ThanksHi Braja,
I don't have an answer for you but that looks like a router issue to me. However, I don't know the quicktime streaming server very well at all. I would try reposting in Discussions-->Digital Life--> Quicktime--> Quicktime for Mac OS and/or in Discussions-->Mac OSX technologies--> Networking and the Web. Good Luck!

Simultaneous read and write to a cube - critical issue
Hello xperts,
I am facing a critical issue.
I have Cube A which has loads of data in it. I need to take the data of CubeA to a new CubeB as a backup purpose.This activity will take a lot of time.
Concern1 - In the night we have the master data job which runs including the attribute change run job. Will this have any effect on the load happening from Cube A to Cube B.
Concern 2 - After master data job finishes in the system , we then run the transaction data jobs which would update Cube A with the delta data. Now the issue is can this delta load happen to Cube A while there is data load going on from Cube A to Cube B??
Please help me out with this ASAP.
Thanks & Regards
RohitRohit,
Attribute change runs will get affected only when you drop or rebuild the indices - this activity locks the cube - any activity that locks the cube will affect attribute change run - reads on a cube will not lock the cube.
However when you are loading data into your new cube - you cannot load data into the cube - for the very fact that when you load data into the cube - you will drop indices - this will affect the data load into the new cube.
