DynamicStreamingResource bugfix request!

I've been losing hair over debugging auto MBR behavior just to realize that auto MBR indexing sometimes bugs out, when looking up streams by name sometimes it returns an incorrect index value when calling the internal 'indexFromName' on a DynamicStreamingResource instance. the reason for this is not being able to match the stream name. even though there is some logic added for appended mp4: prefixes, the prefix doesn't work for my stream names without and additional "/".
I was wondering if the existing code in DynamicStreamingResource on line 150 could be changed from
if (_streamItems[i].streamName.indexOf(name) == 0 ||
_streamItems[i].streamName.indexOf("mp4:" + name) == 0)
to
if (_streamItems[i].streamName.indexOf(name) == 0 ||
_streamItems[i].streamName.indexOf("mp4:" + name) == 0 ||
_streamItems[i].streamName.indexOf("mp4:/" + name) == 0)
I am sure this would eliminate a lot of headache for other developers as well, so they don't have to a) extend half the framework classes just to apply a bandaid on this or b) break framework code.
Let me know if there is any other alternative fix to this that's minimum invasive and I failed to recognize. Thanks!

The best way to make sure your bug report is seen:

BugFix request: output filename wrong if name has "."

If you make a sequence called "1080i29.97_Anamorphic" and go to export you end up getting an output name of "1080i29." (+ the file extension of that exporter).
Sure would be nice if that was fixed. It bugs me all the time.

Get all values from request.getParameter

In ASP, I can do something like that...
For each item in Request.Form
Response.write "Name is:" & item & " value is:" & Request(item)
Next
How about in JSP? How do i get the names and values of the form using a loop?

You can use request.getParameterNames() which will return an enumeration, then you can iterate through the enumeration and use request.getParameterValue(String paramName) method to get the values.

Error while releasing a request.

Hi All,
I'm facing an error while releasing a request.
The request contains an ABAP programs along with two INCLUDDE programs as well as a TCode to run the same.
It is running successfully in dev. server. But, while releasing ths request it shows me the following error :
" Object REPT ZBAPI_SD_SERV_SALES_ORDER is inactive " ,
where ZBAPI_SD_SERV_SALES_ORDER is the program name. When I checked out in ABAP editor it shows the program active.
But, I'm unable to understand why its showing me an inactivation error.
Guys, help me out in this.

Hi,
Check if the INCLUDE program are also ACTIVE. They must be in inactive state. Try activating them and release the request.
Regards,
Vikranth

Error: "Could not complete your request because of a program error" (photoshop CS2 9.0.2 on MAC OSX

Today I started my program (photoshop CS2 9.0.2) and opened a JPG file. When I went to print the file the program crashed and closed. When I restarted the program and went to open the file I got this error message, "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
I have tried several different file types/sizes and all result in the same error message since the program crashed. It will not open any file I try to open. As I indicated above I am using Photoshop CS2 9.0.2 it is on a MAC with OSX 10.4.11.
I called Adobe and the Rep directed me to Tech Note 331307 and told me to Re-create the Photoshop preferences files. Which I did and restarted the program, but when I tried to open a file (any file) I still get the same error message so it doesn't appear to be the preferences.
Does anyone have any info as to what the problem may be and how to correct it.
Thanks

Thanks for the response. OK... This is the first day I have been able to get back to the problem.
My system I am running Photoshop on is a Power Mac G4, AGP Graphics ATY Rage 128Pro chip set 16MB VRAM LCD 1280x1024 32-bit color, 500MHz, 1.75GB of memory, 1 MB L2 Cache, 100 MHz Bus Speed. I had installed the latest security update and repaired the permissions the day the problem started.
Now to day I started the system and went in and created a Guest Account. I logged into the guest account and started Photoshop. Low and behold it worked just fine. So I logged out of guest and logged into my main user account And started Photoshop. Wouldn't you know it.... It works just fine. I can open any file I want with now problems.
I got to thinking after I had done all of this that I wished I had tried to open a file in Photoshop today prior to creating the guest account to see if it still had the problem in my main user account.
I did not change anything else on the system and all seems to work fine now. So at his point I am really not sure what the problem was.
Again thanks for taking the time to respond to this issue.

Can not view data in a request from psa

Dear experts,
I have a problem with data in psa. If a select a mange of PSA, I see some request. I select one of them to see data. But there is no data. How is it possible?
If you delete a reques from psa, that request desappears from the psa, doesn't it?
Thanks in advance,
yeberri

it dosn't work. The problem is that you can see different green requests in manage from psa, but it is not possible to see internal data.
If I try to see data with se16 and the psa table, there are data for one request, but not for request that i need.
any idea? is very important to rescue this request.
thanks for your help.

Unable to capture the Data Source into a Transport Request

Hi All,
We have a product hierarchy and we are using the data source :4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER for the hierarchy.
Now we need to transport this structure to the quality environment but we were not able to capture the datasource:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER into a transport request.
When ever we activate the data source:4R_PRODH_D_LGEN_HIER it is asking for the Package and the Transport Request Number.If we give these details and save it, data source is not getting captured in the request, only the "bject Directory Entry" is getting captured.
Can someone please guide me on how to capture the datasource under "Data Sources in BW" in a transport request.
Regards,
Sachin Dehey.

Hi Sachin,
Hierarachy datasource is not captured as Attributes and Text Datasource. So what ever you have done is correct.
What ever is captured in Object Directory Entry is correct. So go ahead with your transports, once transport is done check the Hierarchy Infopackage with Available OLTP hierarchies and load the data.
Most important thing first see that the all Master & Transactional Datasources are transported in R/3 Dev to QA to PRD
In BW, datasources are not transported, only their replica is transported.
Transportation of Datasource is done in R/3. Only their replica is transported in BW.
So wht ever you have done till now is correct. So go ahead.
While attaching Hierarchy Datasource it is captured only in "Object Directory Entry"
Regards,
Vishnu.

Dear Pugal
we are not using GLM + and I am not sure about the technqiue used there to handle load balancing. Regarding general WWI setup I assume you know this Note: EH&amp;S: Availability and performance of WWI and Expert servers
On the top there is a further SAP Note abvailable which might be of interest. This is referenced here:
http://de.scribd.com/doc/191576739/011000358700000861002013-e
May be check OSS note: 1958655; OSS Note 1155294 is more related to normal WWI stuff; but may be check it as well. May be 1934253 might help better
May be this might help.
C.B.
PS: may be check as well: consolut - EHS_MD_140_01 - EH&amp;S-Management-Server einrichten
The load balancing of synchron WWi servers is donein the "RFC" layer, therefore you have no inffluence here, for asynchron WWI servers you can do a lot to manage the WWI load balancing by using "exits" etc.

My iphone wont let me play songs that I bought from iTunes. It says "The requested URL was not found on this server" How can i play my music also my music videos again?

I bought a few songs and music videos from iTunes, then all of a sudden it wouldn't play and would just skip to the next song. With the music videos it would do the same. Also, this message would show up " The Requested URL could not be found on this server" What does that exactly mean? And what do I need to do to play my music/videos again?

Retriving only hidden parameters from request.getParameter

Hi,
I want to retrive only the hidden parameters from previous JSP page into current JSP page. The problem here is that my hidden parameters in privious page are dynamically generated (parameter names are decided based on values retrived from the database) and I cannot retrive them using "request.getParameter(<parametername>)"
Can I find the parameter type (i.e. text box, text area, checkbox, radio or hidden) from the request.getParameter() or request.getParameterNames() methods? or is there any other way to find it.
Thanks in advance for any help

You can use the getParameterNames() or getParameterMap() methods from javax.servlet.ServletRequest to get all the parameters in the request. Even if they're dynamically generated, and you don't know the names in advance, these methods will ferret them out.
getParameterMap() returns name String, values String [] pairs, so you'll have to work with String arrays to get the input out. It's got to be that way to accomodate checkboxes and other HTML form elements that can send more than one value for a given name.
I prefer getParameterMap, because I don't like using Enumerations as much. - MOD

Help with getting values from request. Very Strange!!

Hello,
My very strange problem is the following.
I have created three dynamic list boxes. When the user select
the first list box, the second becomes populated with stuff
from a database. The third becomes populated when the second
is selected. Now, I have used hidden values in order for
me to get the selected value from the first listbox. The
following code is my first listbox:
<SELECT NAME="resources" onChange="document.hiddenform.hiddenObject.value = this.option [this.selectedIndex].value; document.hiddenform.submit();">
<OPTION VALUE =""> Resource</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE ="soil"> Soil </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE ="water"> Water </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE ="air"> Air </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE ="plants"> Plants </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE ="animals"> Animals </OPTION>
</SELECT>
I use the getRequest method to get the value of hiddenObject.
At this time I am able to get the value of hiddenObject to populate
the second list box.
But, when the user selects an item from the second list box
and the second form is also submitted,
I lose the value of hiddenObject. Why is this??
The code to populate my second listbox is the following:
<SELECT NAME ="res_categories" onChange="document.hiddenform2.hiddenObject2.value = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value; document.hiddenform2.submit(); ">
<OPTION VALUE ="" SELECTED> Category</OPTION>
Here I access a result set to populate the list box.
Please help!!

Form parameters are request-scoped, hence the request.getParameter("hiddenObject"); call after the submission of the second form returns a null value because the hiddenObject parameter does not exist within the second request.
A solution would be to add a hiddenObject field to your second form and alter the onChange event for res_categories to read
document.hiddenform2.hiddenObject.value=document.1stvisibleformname.resources.option[document.1stvisibleformname.resources.selectedIndex].value;
document.hiddenform2.hiddenObject2.value = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;
document.hiddenform2.submit();You will then come across a similar problem with your third drop-down if indeed you need to resubmit the form...
A far better approach would be to create a session scoped bean, and a servlet to handle these requests. Then when the servlet is called, it would set the value of the bean property, thus making it available for this request, and all subsequent requests within the current session. This approach would eliminate the need for the clunky javascript, making your application far more stable.

What is ResearchResults?
Is it a request parameter or is it a request attribute?
Parameters and attributes are two different things.
Request parameters: the values submitted from the form. Always String.
Request attributes: objects stored into scope by your code.
They are also accessed slightly differently in EL
java syntax == EL syntax
request.getParameter("myparameter") == ${param.myparameter}
request.getAttribute("myAttribute") == ${requestScope.myAttribute}
You are referencing the attribute in your scriptlet code, but the parameter in your JSTL/EL code.
Which should it be?

Reading Null Values From Request Object

For a proof-of-concept, I wrote a mini program that has 2 files. File #1 is main.html. There's a javascript function called addNewRowToThisTable that isn't displayed but it basically allows the user to create as many rows in the table as user desires. When the "Submit" button is clicked the file ReadIt.jsp is called and it's supposed to display on the first and last names of the people who had the checkbox for that row checked. The best way to illustrate the problem I'm having is through an example. Let's say there are 3 rows:
[x] Alan Anderson [Add New Row]
[ ] Bob Brady [Add New Row]
[x] Carl Chadwick [Add New Row]
[Submit]
Let's assume that only rows 1 and 3 are clicked. After the form is submitted the JSP will print...
firstNameArr .length = 3
lastNameArr .length = 3
isSelectedArr.length = 2
firstNameArr[0] = Alan
lastNameArr[0] = Anderson
firstNameArr[1] = Bob
lastNameArr[1] = Brady
Unfortunately firstNameArr[1] and lastNameArr[1] should be "Carl", and "Chadwick" respectively. I know the reason why it's failing is because my program relies on the array index of the "isSelected" field to perfectly match up with the "firstName" and "lastName" fields. It's unreliable because if the checkbox for a row is not checked then it won't show up in the JSP String array isSelectedArr. I'm not really sure how to get around this problem. I have 2 ideas at the beginning of solutions but I'm not sure how to follow through on either and I'm also not sure if either is the proper approach to take. My guesses are...
1) There's some way in JSP to use "getParameterValues('isSelected')" to retrieve the full array of "isSelected" items regardless of whether or not they're checked. That would guarantee that my arrays would match up correctly. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find this.
2) Maybe I can put in some sort of ID in the "isSelected" field that would relate the checkbox to the rest of the data in the row. The problem with this is that I've got a dynamic # of rows due to my addNewRowToThisTable method.
So the bottom line is that I'm thoroughly stumped. If anyone can offer advice I'd be very grateful.
main.html
<html><head><title></title></head><body>
<form method="get" action="ReadIt.jsp">
<table>
<tr>
     <td><input type="checkbox" name="isSelected" /></td>
     <td><input type="text" name="firstName" /> </td>
     <td><input type="text" name="lastName" /></td>
     <td><input type="button" value="Add New Row" onClick="addNewRowToThisTable(this)" />
</tr>
<tr>
     <td colspan=4><input type="submit" value="submit"></input></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body></html>
ReadIt.jsp
<%
String[] isSelectedArr = request.getParameterValues("isSelected");
String[] firstNameArr = request.getParameterValues("firstName");
String[] lastNameArr = request.getParameterValues("lastName");
if (firstNameArr != null) System.out.println("firstNameArr .length = " + firstNameArr .length);
if (lastNameArr != null) System.out.println("lastNameArr .length = " + lastNameArr .length);
if (isSelectedArr != null) {
     System.out.println("isSelectedArr.length = " + isSelectedArr.length);
     for (int i=0; i < isSelectedArr.length; i++) {
          System.out.println("firstNameArr["+i+"] = " + firstNameArr);
          System.out.println("lastNameArr["+i+"] = " + firstNameArr[i]);
%>

it's sort of a kludge, but try this:
your javascript function adds new for fields that get submitted to the servlet. name the checkboxes uniquely with a patterm with said function, say isSelected-1, isSelected-2, isSelected-3... now also name the first and last name fields the same way. fname-1, fname-2, fname-3... lname-1,lname-2,lname-3.
when you get to the page that is supposed to match them up, go through all the request parameters looking for those that start with "isSelected-" take the last char (the index), convert it to an int, and then from your request do:
String first = request.getParameter("fname-" + indexThatWasFound);
          String last = request.getParameter("lname-" + indexThatWasFound);in looping over the request for each index recovered from the searching of the request for the isSelected-n values, you will get the matching first and last name.
I TOLD you it was a kludge.
