Different versions of a library on the server

Hi,
is it possible to have different versions of the same library on the server?
The reason for this is that we have some utility classes which should be deployed on the server as a library (because they are used by many projects). But the different versions of the utility classes are not necessarily compatible, which means that some projects still need to reference the old versions of the utility classes.
Or is the only solution in this case to inculde a jar-file with the utility classes in every project and thus not referencing a library at all?
Kind regards.
Achim

Hi Achim,
No, it's not possible to have different versions of the same library (or any other type of component) on the server. You can also have a look at Two versions of a JAR library.
Best regards,

Custom ClassLoader - trying to use different version of SNMP library than WebLogic Server 8.1 uses

Problem: my J2EE ear file uses the AdventNet third-party library to do
SNMP work. WebLogic Server 8.1 also uses this AdventNet third-party
library to do its own SNMP work. The problem is the version used by
WebLogic 8.1 is older than the version I use, so my code tries to run
and finds the wrong version of the library that WebLogic 8.1 has supplied.
Possible solution: I plan to have a custom classloader (derived from
java.lang.ClassLoader) that gets hooked in to my threads using
Thread.setContextClassLoader(). This custom classloader would look for
the AdventNet library jars in a spot I specify so it would find the
correct ones. Since I want to change the usual classloader behavior of
"look in parent classloaders first, then child classloader" to "look in
child classloader first, then in parent classloaders" I can't just
override ClassLoader.findClass(). I, at a minimum, have to override
ClassLoader.loadClass() to look in my classloader first. I have
questions about this:
1. What other methods do I have to override? For example, which of the
resource-related methods do I need to override so that resources are
searched for first in my classloader then in parent classloaders?
2. I was thinking of using a URLClassLoader as a helper to my
classloader, invoking its method(s) from my custom classloader's
method(s) to actually load the classes from URLs that are not on the
standard classpath. I was planning to set it up with a custom parent
classloader that can't find anything, so that the helper URLClassLoader
would only ever find classes/resources in the URLs I provide to it. Does
this approach make sense? Have you seen anything like this done before?
3. Is there any way around this problem besides a custom ClassLoader? A
buggy custom ClassLoader would have problems which AFAIK would be
difficult to track down as ClassLoader problems.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi,
I am experiencing the same problme and

to work
Would you help me out here.
Thanks,
-AlvinI finally figured out a way to do it using a custom classloader that
looked in the directory where I kept the version of AdventNet I wanted
before looking in the normal places classloaders look.
How it works is I hook two classloaders at the bottom of the chain of
classloaders. My custom BlockingClassLoader is hooked as a child of the
normal chain of classloaders, then a URLClassLoader is hooked under
that. The BlockingClassLoader's findClass method checks if the class
starts with a package prefix I want to control (like "com.adventnet.").
If it does, then it acts like it can't find the class. This makes its
child, the URLClassLoader, try to find the class. The URLClassLoader
is given the URL of places to look for classes that match the directory
I keep the version of AdventNet I want in. When I load a class, I
directly tell the URLClassLoader to load it so that it is loaded as I want.
There's more to it than this. I had to override some other methods in
my BlockingClassLoader and do some other stuff. I'm not sure if I can
share the source code, as it was developed on company time and thus is
owned by the company. Feel free to ask questions though.
I haven't tried this solution very long (basically just unit tested it)
but it looks promising.

2011 Essentials "The backup versions on this computer and the server do not match"

I have been unable to get one of my client computers to backup successfully. The first error was it could not successfully take a snapshot. I finally figured out it had to be the GPT disk issue, so I installed the KB2781278 hotfix on the server. Restarted
server and restarted workstation. Now, I get the above error about the versions not matching. Additionally, if I try to configure the workstation backup on the server, it says the backup is not successfully setup. An unknown error prevented the server from
performing the task. Both services are running, btw. Update, just realized I can't configure any backups from the server. Time to uninstall hotfix? Any advice for a frustrated user? Thanks!

i have the same issue - WHS2011 - laptop with GPT disc
installed hotfix KB2781272, rebooted server, removed connector from laptop - rebooted - reinstalled connector - rebooted
now get backup version mismatch
tried reinstalling 2781272, but says already installed (haven't tried removing yet)
can't find KB2934953 in windows update
mark
can't backup any of my existing non-GPT systems either
My KB2934953 appeared in an "optional" update in Windows Update. Maybe there is a way to install it directly. KB2934953 is what solved my problem, finally. Now, if I could just get the Pro Pack to install...

How do I add a print button that would print out pdf or different version than what is on the site?

I see this example on NY Times. If you pick any of their articles and click print or do the short cut (Command-P) ... (Control-P for windows), the layout of their article is completely customized and cleaner. It seems like they've edited the print look to be different than what you see on the website.
I find that very cool and something I've bent dying to achieve. My guess is that I could make a pdf to what I want the print look to be and have a print button read that instead of the website but I don't know, I need help with this.

I have but it's not what I'm looking for. I want to edit what the printer will actually print when a reader clicks print. So if the page has a puzzle, for example, and the reader clicks print. The printer will print the puzzle in a different location on the page without some of the clutter that's on the site or have some message that's not originally present on the website.

Is it possible to run 2 programs that need different versions of a library?

Hi,
I have the following situation.
Tomcat 5.0 Server.
Program A is running on server, and needs axis 1.1 as a library.
Program B is running on the same server, and needs axis 1.4 as a library.
Axis 1.1 and 1.4 are not backwards compatible... if I just put 1.1 on it.. program B won't work.. If I just put 1.4 on it, program A won't work.
Tomncat doesn't seem to like having the same jar loaded in twice.
How do I make this all work? I really don't want to have to try to manually convert a large application from using 1.1 to 1.4 or vice versa, want to try to make them both work...

When I share the video it exports a different version than what appears in the timeline

I've had a really frustrating few days waiting for exports (to Apple Devices) and processing (when uploading to Vimeo). In my timeline appears the properly edited video, but when it gets shared, the video drops clips that I have added, and includes clips that I removed early in the editing process, and gives me a final product that is not my intended video. Please help, need to get this video uploaded for a client yesterday!

Changes made inside compounds are reflected in the project - there is one caveat and I wonder if that was the case for you: compounds, like any other clip, are trimmed to a given duration in the timeline. If your changes made that duration change, you'd have to adjust in the project timeline. For example if you create a 1 minute compound and then edit in its own timeline so that it beco es, say, 5 minutes, it will still be trimmed to 1 minute in the project timeline, and you may have to drag the edges of the clip to extend as much as you wish. This is NOT a bug.

Multiple users using one iPhoto library on a server

I'm working in a design company and we have a huge folder stuffed with reference images on our server. Accessing it is ok using Adobe Bridge but I recently had an idea to create an iPhoto library on the server, this would allow people to quickly find relevant images and by keyword or album. I set it up and all worked fine until I tried opening the library up on a colleagues machine. turns out the folder is 'locked' and completely unaccessable if someone else had it open. Is there a way to make the library more flexible so that more than one person can use it at one time? Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. IPhoto is not designed to be used on a network server. iPhoto is not reliable on any drive that isn't formatted OS X Extended. If the library is located on an OS X Extended formatted external HD withownership set to be ignored and connected to a Mac it can be accessed and used by other Macs. Just create a guest account that others can use to get to the external HD.
If you want multi user compatibility I suggest you look at one of the DAM (digital asset management) applications that offer that - like Media Expression. Other possible DAM applications are described and discussed at The DAM Forum.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Java Cache Viewer shows duplicate URL with different versions

In doing some testing lately we have come across a couple of situations where the same URL is showing in the JAVA cache viewer with different versions to them. In the case of a 1.7 JRE this is not causing any adverse effects however when utilizing a 1.6 JRE we are getting messages about mixed mode for the JAR files.
The jar file is signed as below:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.8.2
Application-Library-Allowable-Codebase: *
Application-Name: named_applet
Built-By: relbuild
Permissions: all-permissions
Created-By: 1.6.0_17-b04 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Caller-Allowable-Codebase: *
Codebase: *
understanding the need to change the wildcard's to domains as we move forward. I am wondering why the jar file is being listed and called twice and why it is being recognized as signed one time and not the next.
The URL is identical in the cache viewer and the java console says it is not found in the cache when it is used the second time, even though previously in the session is finds it with the correct version.
Any advice would be helpful

that i even know, but the problem is that i do not have that version of java re installed, but i found distribution 07 of the same java version, i'll try it out with that.
but when it still doesn't work, then i still would like to find the link where i can download java version 1.4.2_06.

Using iPhoto on a network to access iPhoto library on the se

Is it possible to use iPhoto5 on each of the macs on my network (10 seats) to access one central iPhoto library on the server? Specifically, I am a high school yearbook teacher and I have used iPhoto in the past, and the new version seem great for nearly eveything I want to do, especially searching, BUT I need to keep all the images on one central server, or the whole thing quickly devolves into chaos. I am told it caint be done.
If not, what other image-browsing & organizing programs do folks recommend for this type of application? Of course I have no money for software the costs thousands or even many hundreds of dollars.

J. Miller Adam
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The option to share your library is built in to iPhoto. See Preferences, tab Sharing. If this will suit your needs I don't know, but it's worth looking into. This assumes the other mac have iPhoto installed. I tried it with iPhoto 5 as a server and iPhoto 2 as client, but that didn't work

ITunes Library on Home Server

I'd like to manage and maintain a single iTunes library on my home server and provide access to iTunes operating in two PCs and a Mac. The music files themselves (~13,000) are stored on the server; there is no music on the computers. The iTunes library files (.itl and/or .xml -- I'm not sure which file does what) on each of the computers know where the music is stored on the server. Each of the computer's iTunes streams music from the server independently of the other computers. Virtually all of my music has been ripped from CDs. I've only bought and downloaded a dozen tunes or so, and those are authorized on all three computers.
As it is, I have virtually identical copies of the iTunes library files on each computer. I frequently update the information in the library files (new playlists, ratings, artwork, composer data, etc.) on one PC, and it's a pain to update the other two sets of library files to match. I'm happy for the library information (playlists, ratings, etc.) to be the same on all three computers. I.e., I have no need or desire for different playlists, ratings, etc. on each computer.
So, I'd like to store the .itl and .xml music library files on the server too.
My question is: How does one get iTunes to use .itl and .xml music library files stored in some location other than the iTunes default storage location for its library files, e.g., c:/Users/<user>/My Music/iTunes? How do I get the iTunes on the PCs and on the Mac to look somewhere else [on the server] for its music library files?
I believe that the Edit/Preferences/Advanced "media folder location" option is just that -- the location of the media files themselves, not the location of the library files.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
-- Bill

Nevermind.
I figured out how to get iTunes to use a library on the server rather than the one on the local computer, but it turns out that the iTunes on different computers cannot simultaneously use a single library. Any one of them can, but the others are locked out so long as the first iTunes is running. I suppose this is because iTunes is constantly updating the library with play counts, etc. I wondered how that would work, and now I know -- it won't.
So, in my situation I'm resigned to having to "copy" the two library files to the other two computers from time to time. Oh well, ....

Unable to access gif files from the server

hi all,
i have successfully signed an applet and it is loading in the client system also. in that applet, i instantiated a jbutton as given below:
JButton jb = new JButton(new ImageIcon("http://192.168.91.154:8080/success/set.gif"));
but the icon din appear and a blank button appears, even when accessed from the server system.
if i give the exact path like c:/blazix/webfiles/success/ set.gif, the icon is coming in the server system but not in other systems. i tried without port no also but in vain. pl solve my problem. what i need is how to
specify the path of the file[any file] which is present in server.
or if i put all the gif files in the jar file, can i access the gif files present in the jar file [set for archive] ? if i can, give me the soln for accessing the gif file present in the jar file, so that i need not access the server to get the gif files.(i.e) how to specify the path of the gif files present in the jar file?
i ve one more doubt. the jni library file shld be in the server, and the client has to access the library in the server. i think the applet loaded in the client ll search for the library in the local m/c only . how to make the applet to search for library in the server??
i feel only by using rmi we can solve this problem. am i correct? if so i feel that an appln or applet running in the server shld access the jni library, and the applet in the client side should communicate with this server appln using rmi to get the data.is it correct? is there
anyother way?
i appreciate your help in this regard. thanks in advance. bye, padmanbhan.

Better information on what you are doing with JNI might help you get an answer.
If you have some server process that needs to use JNI, then I would code a servlet to call, instead of using RMI to ge there.
Depending on your environment, and the target audiences environment, RMI may just cause you a lot of grief. Firewalls etc, get in the way of RMI connections and force security holes to be opened in order to work.
If you use a servlet, then traffic to your server process is done via standard http calls, which will already be enabled, because your app runs in a browser.
If ther data requirements are heavy duty, your server could always send an XML stream to the client, which would allow you to describe complex data to the client.
Running JNI stuff from the client directly means a lot of local infrastructure to run your app. The code you want to run, the JNI library ....
If what you have is really an application, but want the convenience of starting it from a browser, look at Java WebStart. Then you can distribute an application via the browser, and WebStart will worry about the deployment issues for you.
In Summary:
Stay away from RMI from applets if you can help it.
If you really have an App, then try WebStart to manage the distribution issues for you.

Creative ALchemy different version for different cards or one for a

Hello,
if there are different versions from Creative ALchemy
In the forums i found somthing about
- ALchemy for Audigy,
- ALchemy X-FI Editon
and on the Creative Download Page i found "Creative ALchemy .20.04". Also on my driver CD was an ALchemy X-FI Editon.
Whats the different between this versions and what the different to "Creative ALchemy .20.04" (all in one)
Maybee ALchemy for Audigy and ALchemy X-FI Editon are older version and now are only on version for all cards
Regards, Henry

Hi,
Previously Creative maintained a version of ALchemy for the Audigy and X-Fi's as seperate applications.
Acouple of weeks/months ago, Creative announced that as of .20.04, all Audigy and X-Fi's would be supported by the one application.
Just download and install the version you have found on the Creative Download Page.
