Error 2STF/8/3:ATA - 100ata-6-master

I'm getting this error on my ibook G4 when I run the hardware test CD. My machine won't start up at the moment - it gets to the spinning dashes and then goes into kernel panic. I can't boot from the Panther install disk nor from the disks which came with the machine. If I try target mode (firewire) it crashes the other machine. It will however go into single user mode. It will also run hardware test.
D'you think replacing the hard drive will solve the problem?
Any thoughts gratefully received.
Andrew.

Only an Apple Authorized Service Provider can tell you what that error code means, but it's clearly a problem with the hard drive. Replacing the hard drive may fix it, but without a more detailed explanation of that error, we can't be certain.

Mass Storage -Hard Drive -Error 2STF/8/3:ATA-100ata-6-Master

I ran a hardware test and got the following error message on the Mass Storage (hard drive) device, what does it mean? Is the hard drive toast? Is there a way to fix this?
***error**
2STF/8/3:ATA-100ata-6-Master
***error***

That error indicates the hard drive is failing or has failed. It could be that the drive itself is at fault, or that it is not correctly connected, or that the ATA controller on the logic board is faulty. There are also indications that in some instances, that fault code can be generated by a problem with the optical drive which prevents the system correctly addressing the hard drive.
Of those, the only truly serious possibility is the ATA controller, since it would require replacement of the logic board, which is really not an economic repair.
In this situation, and assuming the system in not under warranty (clearly if it is, take it in for service) then I would remove the top, check the drive tray is correctly mounted, and remove the optical drive to see if the hard drive then functions. If not, then swap in another hard drive then try and set the new drive up. If it continues to fail with this error, it would then point to the logic board.

Does the error code "2STF/8/3.ATA-100ata-6-Master" means I have to replace my hard drive?

It is either a failing/failed hard drive, or a problem with the controller, which means logic board. If you Macbook is old enough to be running Tiger (which is what this forum covers) then the answer to your question is no, you need a new Mac!

Ran Hardware test on 17" 10.5.6 Error Code 2STF/3/3:ATA-100ata-6-master came up @ mass storage run area.

Have a Powerbook G4 17" 1.57GHz BRV 4.8.4f1 Mem.1 GB HDr. ATA:3,ID:0, Ran HARDWARE Test 2.2 hit Mass Storage test area when Error Code 2STF/3/3:ATA-100ata-6-Master stopped test. Shut comp down by holding pwr button for 5 secs. Waited 20 minutes and restarted w/option button and ran test again hit Mass Storage and Error Code 2STF/8/ rest is same as previous error code. Something about Node pop up after running disk utility a few days ago. Comp is was running very slow. Only change besides updates was Macdefender. Do I need to take it to be repaired at an Apple place? Thank you.

First, you need to remove macdefender, which is a scam program. Apple note http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4650 provides these instructions:
Removal steps
Move or close the Scan Window.
Go to the Utilities folder in the Applications folder and launch Activity Monitor.
Choose All Processes from the pop up menu in the upper right corner of the window.
Under the Process Name column, look for the name of the app and click to select it; common app names include: MacDefender, MacSecurity or MacProtector.
Click the Quit Process button in the upper left corner of the window and select Quit.
Quit Activity Monitor application.
Open the Applications folder.
Locate the app ex. MacDefender, MacSecurity, MacProtector or other name.
Drag to Trash, and empty Trash.
Malware also installs a login item in your account in System Preferences. Removal of the login item is not necessary, but you can remove it by following the steps below.
Open System Preferences, select Accounts, then Login Items
Select the name of the app you removed in the steps above ex. MacDefender, MacSecurity, MacProtector
Click the minus button
Now, after you do that, reboot your system. Bring up disk utillity and verify the disk. Preferred would be to boot from OS X on DVD or a Firewire backup, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk, but verify disk when Disk Utility is loaded from the hard drive should work. Write down any messages, like bad node or whatever.
If you get a message that the program exits with a failure, then there is a disk error that Disk Utility won't be able to fix. That could mean buying Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to fix the error. Disk Warrior tends to be the disk fix program of choice. Depending on the error, it's possible that Disk Utility won't be able to fix the problem, in which case the fix is usually a new hard drive. Note, a new hard drive will be cheaper than Disk Warrior (at $95 or so).
Smart Utility from http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.php will give you good insight into the condition of your hard drive, as it reports on your SMART sensors.

Hard Drive issues: Error 2stf/8/3 ata-100 ata-6 - master

I been having some problems with my powerbook, very difficult install of Tiger, running slow, applications take a long time to open. I found my original apple cds and ran the hardware test. I ran an Extended test and got this error:
2stf/8/3 ata-100 ata-6 - master
I then ran the quick test and everything passed including the Mass Storage. I'm hoping it's not a failing hard drive, S.M.A.R.T says verified. Could this be a sign of the "bad blocks" and I should try a complete erase and install? If so what is the best way to do so, so I do it correctly. By the way, my computer still boots up and seems to be running decently although slower than before, should I just leave it be? Thanks for all your help.

I contacted Apple and they're sending me a new unit instead of swapping out the drive. I'm glad they're doing that, because frankly, I think this PB is a lemon and I don't want to deal with it anymore. They considered it DOA, given I used it for less than 6 hours before it died.
Whats strange is that this one came with Panther installed, but had Tiger system disks with it. It was supposed to have Tiger installed. I wiped the drive on Friday and installed Tiger from scratch (had some difficulties installing Tiger), then I went ahead and installed my programs and worked for a few ours on my work on the PB.
Today, I tried attaching the PB as a target drive to my desktop system (just to try and recover the files I worked on Friday), but it wouldn't recognize it or mount it on the desktop. I also bought and downloaded Disk Warrior to see if it could see it--no luck.
Then, later today, I turned on my external hard drive thats hooked up to my desktop system and it WASN'T MOUNTING on the desktop. It was fine this morning. Something happened when I used the PB as a target drive--so, I ran Disk Warrior on the external drive and it mounted a "copy" of the drive, and now I'm backing up those files even as I type...
Needless to say, its been an extremely stressful day. And to top it all off, it takes about 1.5 hours per DVD to burn (its an older DVD burner) and there are 7 DVDs worth of data back up...thanksfully, Disk Warrior was able to mont thr data so I COULD back up the files.
So, if this new system comes with Panther installed, I'm leaving it as is--I'm not going the Tiger route yet.
In a way, I'm glad this happened with the new PB where I only lost a few hours of work, instead of my trying to redo my desktop system with Tiger (which I purchased, but hadn't gotten around to doing) and potantiall losing a lot more than that...
Moral of the story, purchase a .MAC membership, download "Backup" and use it REGULARLY.
I'll keep you posted as to how everything goes.

ERROR CODE 2STF/8/3: S-ATA BUS O-Master

I was running Pro ToolsLE on my iMac G5 and then all operations stopped or froze, I forced quit, lost what I was working on when it stopped. Then I tried to restart after deleating the pro tools prefs file and the gray screen with apple symbol and indicator comes up and doesn't continue to boot up.
I ran Tech tools from the install disc and the ERROR CODE 2STF/8/3: S-ATA BUS O-Master comes up. After researching further I think the Hard Drive has Failed!!
Can this be true? I have not used the computer that much. I will be calling Apple Care. Has anyone else experienced this, and is my iMac G5 not as reliable as I thought?

Welcome to Discussions - hard drives can fail at any point, the amount of use is no indication of longevity. My iMac G5 is a Rev A, and (fingers crossed) the original drive is still working flawlessly. In every batch there are some that will fail prematurely and others that will last long past their fail date. Please do call Apple Care and see what they say.
See if there's any way you can put your computer in Target Disk Mode and get your data off the drive before it goes in for repair.

Error Code 2STF/8/3:ATA-100 ata-6-Master

Hello,
I've been working with my ailing eMac G4 for a couple weeks now. Nothing is working. When I run Quick Test on the Apple Hardware Test (after booting off the Install and Restore Disk) I get an "everything is fine" message. Then, when I run the extended test, I get the following error code: 2STF/8/3:ATA-100 ata-6-Master.
Does anyone know what this means?
Thanks.

Error Code: 2STF/8/3: S-ATA BUS 0 - MASTER

My iMac G5 is hanging up at times (spinning wheel) and then hangs for 30 minutes or more on restart before eventually booting up. I did a hardware test which revealed the following error: "Error Code: 2STF/8/3: S-ATA BUS 0 - MASTER" in the mass storage portion of the test.
Any suggestions on next steps?

Please back up your data immediately, preferably by cloning them to n external firewire drive using SuperDuper!.
It looks as if your hard drive is about to bite the dust, new large ones are not at all expensive, and with your data cloned, it's very easy to migrate to a new drive.
Let us know how things work out for you,

Error Message while adding Item in Item Master Data- [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0][SQL Server]Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value 's008 01' to data type int. (CINF)

Dear Experts
I am getting the following error message while adding item in Item Master data. I have modified the following SBO_SP_transactionNotification in SQL server after that could not able to add the item

END
end
-- Select the return values
select @error, @error_message
end

Hi Rathna,
Just put the SP like this, without the -- before the IF. A -- marks the line as a command therefore you need to uncomment and it will work.
IF @OBJECT_TYPE = '59' AND (@TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'A' or @TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'U')
BEGIN
   IF EXISTS(
    SELECT T0.Price FROM IGN1 T0
    where IsNull(T0.Price, '0') = '0' and T0.DocEntry = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
   BEGIN
    SELECT @ERROR=1,@ERROR_MESSAGE='Please insert the price !'
END
end
Hope it helps

Error while updating any SAP / Customised AddOn Master Data Form in SAP B1

Hello Experts,
I am facing a unique Problem in my addon .I have created two Master Tables Forms and entered the data in that two forms and the entry is done alright.
But while updating that Master data system is throwing an error "Conversion Failed when converting the nvarchar value 'A001'
to datatype int (CINF) "
Here i have saved the Data as 'A001' in code field of MAster Data Table.
This error is showing even in SAP Item MAster or any MAster Type Forms.
This problem persist in all Master type Forms not the Document Type Forms.
Please suggest a solution for this error to rectify.
Thanks
Amit

Hi Amit,
Do you have any customisations in your Transaction Notification proc on the company database? You'll get this error if you have an old version of this procedure and you are doing any validation with the object_type parameter (which used to be data type int but is now nvarchar).
See SAP Note 1298609
Kind Regards,
Owen

Error during MIGO-Error during maint. of delivery costs in master condition

Hi
We are getting error as below during MIGO against a PO with doc type NB:
"Error during maint. of delivery costs in master conditions, Delivery cost conditions in different validity periods not identical"
What might be cause??
Thanks
Maruthi

Check the delivery conditions in condition tab of PO.
Try to check if there are any delivery condition records mainatined.
I think the problem is mostly due to overlapping validity period. Try to change the validity period for the same.

Dear,
we're pointing our content to an WebDAV-compliant server(IIS) instead of KM of SAP Portal. Authorization to that is working fine and when the check-in process start, it creating folders and we are getting the java errors, when AE is trying to check-in the actual content files. Error Screen shot below,
Could you please let us know, what changes you have done from IIS side to successful check-in to the Master Repository and what is the system requirement to resolve this(I mean, version of AE and Java and IIS like that). it would be really appreciated, if you could share your views on this.
Appreciate your kind response.
Thanks and Regards
