== ERROR: arch contains invalid characters: ','

I been using GNU/Arch Linux for few weeks now. One program I liked for Ganoo/Leenox was "screencloud", it let me bind hotkeys to draw a square then snap a screenshot and upload it to my FTP server.
So I typed 'yaourt screencloud',
It fails to install the 'libqxt' dependency every time I try. This is what happens:
==> Downloading libqxt PKGBUILD from AUR...
x PKGBUILD
libqxt 0.6.2-3 (Sat Sep 1 10:18:04 EDT 2007)
( Unsupported package: Potentially dangerous ! )

==>
==> Building and installing package
==> ERROR: arch contains invalid characters: ','
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build libqxt.
==> Restart building libqxt ? [y/N]

So what is wrong with it and how do I fix it? Thanks

A really odd thing happens when I press Y to edit the PKGBUILD
The terminal just dies, nothing appears, and I cant ctrl+C to escape
Heres a lil screencapture I encoded as webm to show what happens

EDIT: sorry for the uploading to that host, if anyone knows a better place to upload, or public ftp server let me know

Error message: Package contains invalid characters installing patchlevel 6

Dear experts:
I have successfullly installed SAP GUI 7.20 compilation 2, using SAP installation server (40 machines, Windows XP sp3 32 bits, latest updates).
I have successfully installed patchlevel 6 in the SAP installation server. (gui720_6-10007878.exe, downloaded from SAP Portal)
SAP GUI is configured to search for updates after 5 double-clicks on desktop icon. I forced the 5 double-clicks on a test machine and the patch begins to install; then informs me that there is a pending reboot.
When I reboot the machine a SAP Netweaver Front-end installer window appears with the error: "/Package contains invalid characters like /*?"<>\" - "Your system has a pending reboot". If I reboot again the message is displayed again.
If I click on the "Cancel" button of this window, Windows XP continues booting and SAP GUI works fine.
Two questions:
How can I avoid the installation of this patch on all the machines?
What can be wrong?
Thank you very much.

1.) To avoid the installation on all clients simply go to "Services -> Configure Automatic Workstation Update Service" in the SAP Installation Server Administration Tool and disbale the service. If this doesnt work you can delete the package on the installation server an create a new one with the same name. You can than patch the package to the patchlevel you want.
2.) Try to apply patch 6 Hotfix 2 and see if the problem remains.

Error occured while importing xsd.file(Name contains invalid characters: -

Hello,
i muss import xsd.file. while importing this error occured:
İFMEXTDEF CCTS_CCT_SchemaModule-2.0 | http://example.org/XXX/XXX/OUT/NOZ (SC_NOZ V001 of example.org):
Name contains invalid characters: - .
Only a(A)-z(Z), 0-9, and "_" are permitted
This xsdfile name is CCTS_CCT_SchemaModule-2.0 but PI doesn't accept "-". But i muss use this file because this file is standart. What can i do for this?
Thanks
Nurhan
Edited by: Nurhan on Oct 18, 2011 11:22 AM

HI,
PI doestnt support special characters like '-'. first you need to change the file name as you specify '-'. to remove that and you have to give '_'. then uyou have to impot >XSD file into ESR under ExternalDefination.
i hope this will help you.

Error: Topic ID "Ầ‾Â»Â¿#define" contains invalid characters.

Hi,
I have just upgraded to RoboHelp for Word 9. When I compile I get the message:
Warning - HC3033: File RhubarbRhubarb.hh: The Topic ID "Ầ‾Â»Â¿#define" contains invalid characters. The #, =, >, @, !, or \Â˚haracters cannot be used in a WinHelp version 4.0 source file.
I have 7 files in the project and there is one of these error messages for each file. I checked the .hh files and there is nothing corresponding to that as a Topic ID. I don't use any special characters in my Topic IDs anyway.
It doesn't seem to be having any effect on my generated project but I'm uneasy about unexplainable error messages. Does anyone have an idea why they're there and how to remove them please?
regards
Christina

To the best of my knowledge (haven't used Rh for Word for a long time) the only solution is sleuthing the elusive illegal character.

Error: 'InfoObject ZDATE contains invalid characters in record 1 in value'

Dear friends,
When I am uploading data from oracle datasource (in BW 3.5) I am getting an error 'InfoObject ZDATE contains invalid characters in record 1 in value'. There are no illegal characters in the date instead the date field is blank in datasource. There are other date fields technically the same as ZDATE with blank values but they dont throw an error when scheduler runs.
Though when I manually upload the data, it's loaded successfully.
Please suggest where can the error be?
Regards,
Amit Srivastava

You have 2 options:
1. Corect your data for the characteristics that give errors.
Or
2. go to SPRO in BW - Netweaver - BW - general settings - maintain permitted characters.
In this screen, you maain tain any special characteristic that you the system to recognise and accept. In your case, take your characteristics that give error and add to this.

Support forum message error: "The message contains invalid characters."

when i try to post a crash report in a forum thread i created, i get the following message:
"The message contains invalid characters."
is this a forum bug? are there such things as invalid characters???

This MAY be totally unrelated - but maybe not.
The SiteWare is particular about some characters under some circumstances. I have not been alerted like you were, but I have seen this when posting screenshots Using an add-on to my browser that put's the "Title" of the page grabbed into the filename it saves...
All ASC pages have
" ... | Apple Support Communities " at the end of the title
the " | " (vertical 'stroke') is an illegal character in a filename for POSTING to the server - and there are others
* the file " ASC | ASC.png " is the same image as the 1st picture I posted - I just changed the name to illustrate
What is good for the Finder may not be good for the server or the software running these forums.

Value 'KIRBYu00A0' of characteristic 0SORTL contains invalid characters

hello experts!
i am facing this error while activating 0vendor. data not available either in info object master neither in psa.
Error Message: Value 'KIRBY ' (hex. '004B004900520042005900A0') of characteristic 0SORTL contains invalid characters
Message no. BRAIN060
Diagnosis
Only the following standard characters are valid in characteristic values by default:
!"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.
Furthermore, characteristic values that only consist of the character # or that begin with ! are not valid.
You are trying to load the invalid characteristic value 1. (hexidecimal representation 004B004900520042005900A0).
Procedure for System Administration
Try to change the invalid characters to valid characters.
If you want values that contain invalid characters to be admitted into the system, make the appropriate setting in BW Customizing. Refer to the documentation describing the requirements for special characters and the possible consequences.
For more information on the problems involved with valid and invalid characters, click here.

vijay

Hi Vijay,
after KIRBY is a characteristic value which cannot be interpreted by BW properply / is not in the valid char list.
KRIBY is hex value 004B0049005200420059
the invalid char is hex value 00A0 -> online hex converter didn't found a ASCI match.
To solve the problem you will need to fix the record in the source. Or you go to PSA -> delete all in teh field and re-enter KRIBY.
Best regards,
Axel

The File name property is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters

I have an SSIS task that has run successfully for years. They just moved the dtsx to a new server and now it is failing.
Issue:
The task has a data flow that writes a raw file destination. It then has a subsequent data flow that reads the raw file destination.
The path and name of the raw file is passed to each of the data flows via the same variable.
The raw file resides in a folder on the server in the same path that the dtsx resides in.
The task fails with the "The File name property is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters" error when trying to access the raw file.
What we have done to troubleshoot:
1. I ran the task successfully on my local machine so it is definitely a server issue.
2. The first thing we were seeing was that it failed trying to write to the raw file. The task is set to "Create Always".
3. We saw that the dba's copied over the entire directory structure from the old server which included a previously created raw file, so we deleted the raw file.
4. We reran the task and it successfully wrote a new raw file but then failed on reading the raw file with the same error as above.
5. We reran the task AGAIN and this time it failed trying to write the raw file throwing the same error as above.
6. The dba looked at the directory and the account that performs the task has full control.
7. The dba looked at the raw file that was created and verified that the account that performs the task has full control of the file and that it is the owner of the file.
Summary:
The task fails when trying to access the file EXCEPT when the file does not exist. In that situation it can write the file but subsequently fails in accessing it again.

Hi Whalensdad,
Based on my research, the issue can be caused by the following reasons:
There are some invalid characters in the File name at package runtime. In this scenario, just as Russ said, could you please post the value that is in the File name variable? Also use a Script Task with Messagebox.show to show the variable values at runtime.
May be it changes to others at run time.
The account runs the package not having access to all the folders in the path. Since you are moving the dtsx file from one server to the current server, do you also move the raw file to the same folder in the current server? Does the user runs the package
have access to all the folders in the path? To solve this, please ensure that the user has access to all folders and the raw file in the path on the current server.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

Please see the response above. I can't use a message box on a server so I logged the values to the database. The resource account has full control to the folder. I haven't been able to get the DBA to check the SQL Agents permissions, but I was always under
the impression that if you use "Run As" on the task, it will not use the SQL Agent but the account you identify it to "Run As". The "Run As" account has full control on the folder and file.

The file name is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters.

Hi ,
I am getting below error in SSIS 2008 package when it is run through control-m
The file name is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters.
component "FF_SRC_InboundFidelityInputFile" (1) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020207E.
although this package is working fine in dev environment from visual studio.
control-m agent has proper permissions to the folder still it is failing. Please if anyone knows solution for this issue. I am working on this issue since more than a week but reached nowhere. Please help.
Thanks

Hi Paras,
Based on your description, it is not the VS IDE issue, if it is related to the SSIS, I suggest you post the issue in this forum here:http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/home?forum=sqlintegrationservices
, and there you would get better response.

Value '05uFF71uFF7BuFF8B ' for characteristic ZJLEG_PPL contains invalid characters

Hi,
One of our Master data attribute load is failing with the following error message.
Value '05ｱｻﾋ ' for characteristic Z_PPL contains invalid characters
As you see there are some Japanese characters when it is trying to load into Char string?
Can we load such characteristics?
Where can we check which all Languages are installed in the system?
If we want to maintain these to the Special characteristics in RSKC transaction?
Can we enter these characteristics using English keyboard?
Regards
Ajay

Hi Ajay
Some time in the run time environ ment field values are moved to junk chars .
In this case even if u r traying to place the same char in RSKC also it wont
accept..
So in this can just edit that particular error record like in the ordinary process in
the PSA.other wise if its a master data u need to select the option error handling
in the info pak and rerun the info pak..
Hope itz clear a little atleast...!
Thanks & Regards

Need help with Value '# ' of 0REF_DOC_NO contains invalid characters

Hi Experts
We are having load failure due to this Value '# ' of characteristic 0REF_DOC_NO contains invalid characters error. I have managed to find out at PSA level there are few records with contains # value. I have also informed the user about it and user had rectified the record from ECC level.
Our load goes evey night through process chains from PSA to DSO and then to Cube.
We have requests in DSO till today and the problem happened two weeks ago e.g. 7 DEC. In cube the last record came on 6 DEC as after that it was failing everyday.
Now I am just wondering with few questions :-
Should I wait for next delta load to happen so that it can bring all the records from DSO to Cube or Do i need to change the record of that certain date in DSO too.
Please give me your valuable suggestion and steps.
Regards
Sunny

Sorry for posting it in wrong section, i have moved it to right thread now.
Cube is failing with invalid characters error Value # of 0REF_DOC_NO

Value '#' (hex. '') of characteristic 0customer contains invalid characters

Value '#' (hex. '') of characteristic 0customer contains invalid characters
I didn't get the error message when I am loading into ODs.The error occurs only the ODS to Cube load.
RSKC transaction -I have values
ALL_CAPITAL+/=1234567890~`@#$%^&*()_-{}[]\|'";:?.>,<
Other than ABAP routine is their anyway can I handle the invalid characters.
Because I am loading millions of records in the transaction.I can't Manually update in the PSA.
Advance Thanks

Hi
I am surprised why you have not faced this problem while loading to ODS. I guess your ODS is not ON for BEx Reporting. Anyways, You need to write a transfer routine for 0CUSTOMER.
Just replace ZZZ with you transfer structure field.
DATA: L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR TYPE RSALLOWEDCHAR,
L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR(140) TYPE C,
L_RESULT_STR_LEN TYPE I,
L_STR_INCREMENT TYPE I.
CONSTANTS C_SAP_ALLOWED_CHAR(58) TYPE C VALUE
' !"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'.
IF L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR IS INITIAL.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM RSALLOWEDCHAR
INTO L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR
WHERE ALLOWKEY = 'S'.
CONCATENATE C_SAP_ALLOWED_CHAR
L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR-ALLOWCHAR
INTO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.
ENDIF.
RESULT = TRAN_STRUCTURE-ZZZ.
TRANSLATE RESULT TO UPPER CASE.
L_RESULT_STR_LEN = STRLEN( RESULT ).
L_STR_INCREMENT = 0.
WHILE L_STR_INCREMENT <> L_RESULT_STR_LEN.
IF NOT RESULT+L_STR_INCREMENT(1) CO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.
RESULT+L_STR_INCREMENT(1) = ' '.
ENDIF.
ADD 1 TO L_STR_INCREMENT.
ENDWHILE.
Hope this helps

Dynamic column Name# Contains Invalid Characters. Bind_table() fails

Hi WD experts,
I have tried to use the bind_table() on a dynamically generated table. Now it happens that this dynamic table contains columns like NAME# . This gave rise to a dump :
The Name NAME# Contains Invalid Characters. Valid Characters are A-Z, 0-9, _, and /.
Other tables which do not have such columns are correctly bound.
In my method , I first loop over the field catalog to retrieve some field names from a dynamicallt generated report...
LOOP AT lt_fieldcat_out INTO lwa_fieldcat.
    comp-name = lwa_fieldcat-fieldname.
    comp-type ?= cl_abap_typedescr=>DESCRIBE_BY_DATA( lwa_fieldcat-FIELDNAME ).
    APPEND comp TO comp_tab.
ENDLOOP.
structure which represents the dynamic table
struct_type = cl_abap_structdescr=>get(
                                          p_components = comp_tab
                                          p_strict = abap_FALSE   ).
node_info = wd_context->get_node_info( ).
node_info = node_info->add_new_child_node(
                              name        = 'DYN_TAB_NODE'
                              IS_MANDATORY                 = ABAP_TRUE
                               IS_MANDATORY_SELECTION       = ABAP_FALSE
                               IS_MULTIPLE                  = ABAP_TRUE
                               IS_MULTIPLE_SELECTION        = ABAP_FALSE
                               IS_SINGLETON                 = ABAP_FALSE

                              static_element_rtti = struct_type
                              is_static = abap_false
struct_type = node_info->GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES_TYPE( ).
Afterwards, I bind a dynamic table to the new node...
Do you have an idea how to circumvent this ?
Thank you,
cheers,Zied.
