DDE Server error when exiting CS5

Hi,
I'm running CS5 with the latest patch applied. Sometimesn when I exit PS, I get the following error:
DDE Server Windows Photoshop.exe Application error. The instruction at 0xhhhhhhhh referred to memory at 0xhhhhhhhh.The memory could not be "read". Click ok to terminate the program.
This one is not new : I have seen similar reports from 2005.
I have never written any PS plugin and I'm not familiar with the plugin SDK but could it be that PS communicates with plugins through DDE messages (which is a very old and unreliable technology)?
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

OK, because I don't want to mislead anyone, I took a bit more time. I had forgotten I have Photoshop CS5 installed on a Windows 7 virtual machine with absolutely no 3rd party plugins installed.
I took the time to boot up that virtual machine and on that virtual machine I found that this window exists before ever starting Photoshop:
However, upon starting Photoshop CS5 (into which no plugins have ever been installed) this additional window was created (the one above stayed around as well).
What I don't know is whether this window is somehow a byproduct of my environment or was created by Photoshop.
I have several programs to enhance my desktop environment: Classic Shell (Classic Explorer component only) and ShellFolderFix (an Explorer window placement tool). I'm going to see if I can bring up a very minimal system without these and determine whether the above windows still exist.

any help would be greatly appreciated ...

A couple of questions:
1) Did you try shutting down apache with the sript?
2) When killing the httpd processes did you also kill the associated java processes?

"500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable sele

Hi Experts,
I am getting "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable selection screen (in WAD).
How could this be resolved?
Quick reply would be very helpfull.
Thanks in advance !!

It seems you are using wrong client ID. Make sure your logon pad has right details. You should verify this with your basis team.
If the problem persists then try re-installing. But before you do that you can execute sapbexc.xla which is in the c:\program files\sap\bw. Type c:\ in cell c3 and click "start button". Any red flag means you have wrong version dll/ocx on your local drive, in that case you should reinstall with right patches.
if this solution helps u then pls assign points

"Cannot connect to server" error when setting up MAMP local server in Dreamweaver cc 2014

I am trying to set up my Wordpress 4.1 site with MAMP 3.0.7.3 in Dreamweaver cc 2014, but I am getting a "Cannot connect to server" error when trying to view the site live. The site works fine on the localhost:8888. I am using OS X Yosemite and PHP 5.6.2. Below are screenshots of my Dreamweaver settings. Thanks in advance.

Hi Subhadeep!
Think I'm getting closer (Lol). I did as you suggested and changed the web url to http://localhost:8888/Documents/projects/whoknew/. As you suggested I moved the local site to the Documents folder under the sub-folder projects. It is connecting to the server, but now I am getting the requested url cannot be found on the server. Below are screenshots of my current settings.

hello,
just to clarify
a) the parameter is named DESFORMAT not :DESFORMAT, there is
no : in front of the name, if you submit it via URL !
b) there are some issues with acrobat5 and IE but those are not

Internal Server Error when Displaying Total No. of Pages in Oracle Reports

Hello all,
I've already posted an almost similar message in the Developer Tools forums but would like to post it again here since we think that this is a problem with the report server (Maybe we're missing a patch, a configuration value not set properly or resources are not enough like memory).
We're using Oracle Reports Server ver10.1.2.0.2 and we're encountering an Internal Server Error when a particular report retrieves around 10K records which displays on each page the current page and the total no of pages. When we only display the current page, the report does not encounter any error.
When we enabled the tracing options, it just showed that it encountered a Null pointer exception.
[2006/7/13 11:1:4:703] Debug 50103 (EngineImpl:EngineImpl) : CInitEngine returns 0
[2006/7/13 11:1:4:765] Exception 50125 (java.lang.NullPointerException
at oracle.reports.engine.RWEngine.init(RWEngine.java:343)
at oracle reports.engine.RWEngine.main(RWEngine.java:60)
): Internal error java.lang.NullPointerException
And according to metalink (Doc Id:315228.1), we should just remove the total pages in our report. Problem is that this isn't an option for us. The document also mentioned about something about timeouts. We have already tried setting the request timeout parameter of the HTTP server to larger values but it still doesn't solve the problem.
Is there a workaround for this?
Any help would really be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
