/etc folder missing in EP6SP9 CM

Hi all,
I am in EP6 SP9 under Windows 2003.
After installation of Content Management, I have noticed that the /etc directory under root folder is missing. Hence all the areas where I have jpgs for folders are coming blank since they point to the mime/image folders under etc.
Is there a bug in EP6 SP9 or do I have to patch up some hotfixes to get the /etc directory.Anyone else facing this problem.
Regards,
Rajan.K

Hi
Since Ahmet has EP installed on his Win XP machine that scenario is separate to what you have pointed out Dirk.  In a productive/dev/test scenario for a client the portal server will always be connected to the network (should be!).  For the scenario you have pointed out, you are very correct in that the path for etc repository mgr should not be touched.
However what Ahmet has done is installed EP on his WinXP machine which he may move with him.  Thus if it is not on the network there is no way for the KMC engine to tell where to find the //server.  So in standalone installations for develoment/personal usage change to this Root directory for etc respoitory mgr is required.  In fact for the Root Directory just point it to the local file system (ex. C:\usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\global\config\cm\etc) and you will be away laughing.
Hope this helps!
Cheers

    Hi Rajan,
    Under
    System Administration->System Configuration->
    Knowledge Management->Content Management
    Check root directory field whether there is an entry like:
    //<yourhost>/sapmnt/<SYSID>/global/config/cm/etc
    exists. If not try to add it.
    We had the same problem, after this adjustment it is solved.

  • Missing syslog.conf file in /etc folder!

    How do I create a syslog.conf file that I need in the /etc folder to resolve an isssue with DoorStop?

    /etc/syslog.conf already exists - you just need to edit it to your needs.
    The issue, of course, is that only root can edit this file. Your best bet is to run your favorite text editor using sudo in Terminal.app, e.g.:
    sudo vi /etc/syslog.conf

  • Albums folder in iPhoto Library folder missing

    The Albums folder in iPhoto Library folder missing. This means when I try to sync photos to my iPod (video) in iTunes, none of my photo albums show up (though I can seclect a specific folder useing year, month day, etc.). It also mens that I must navagate through the date folders to find photos when trying to attach them to e-mails.
    I am running a G5 with the latest version of OSX, iPhoto, iTunes.
    How do I recreat this folder?
    Thankd for any help.
    Cheers__ Heath

    Hi Heath,
    iPhoto 5 now stores the Album information in a data xml file. The Albums folder within the iPhoto Library folder is no longer used. At some point, usually after a rebuild, you will no longer have that folder in the Finder.
    If you need to access photos from an album it is very difficult for a third party application to navigate the iPhoto Library in order to find the photo you need. You will have to know the date of import in order to find the photo.
    There are some third party applications that can read the xml file and can navigate the iPhoto library and show you the Albums. Hopefully more applications will be revised to read this file.
    Until then you will have to Share/Export the photos to the desktop. You can then navigate to the desktop to use the photos (example: web uploading from online photo site)
    If your application supports drag and drop, you can drag the photo from an open iPhoto Library window into your application.
    For email you can also use the email icon within iPhoto to open a message with the highlighted photo attached.
    You can also use spotlight to find images in an Album...
    This is what I have done using Spotlight to find my images that are in iPhoto albums without opening iPhoto..
    In iPhoto, select the album, then select all, go to Photos/batch change.
    Change the comments to text. In the text field I put the name of the Album.
    Do this for each album.
    Close iPhoto.
    Open Spotlight and put in the name of the Album ( you have to remember the names of the albums or have then written down)
    In the spotlight search results. click on "show all"
    Under "Images" click on the "xx more" to show all the images in the album.
    Make sure you have it in icon view, the icon view box is the last one on the blue images line.
    Now you can control click on the image to "reveal in finder", open in iPhoto or Mail, etc.
    I am not sure if this is going to make you happy and it is a little more work, but you can find images in albums and even view them in a slideshow (by clicking the play arrow at the end of the Images highlighted blue line) using Spotlight, all without opening iPhoto.
    One important thing to know is you can set up a graphic program to be an external editor (when you double click an image in the library} such as PhotoShop or PS Elements. You set up that within iPhoto Preferences. Just make sure you save the image flattened and with the same name. The edits will then be relected in iPhoto when you hit "save".
    Two Apple kbs for you to read
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
    About the iPhoto Library folder
    Also, when you choose a folder to sync for your iPod, choose iPhoto in the drop down menu in iTunes, then choose the Album you want to sync. Do not choose a folder on your hard drive and then the Albums folder in the iPhoto Library folder.

  • Applications folder missing from Dock and Finder

    I was a little confused to find my applications folder missing from the Dock on my Macbook Pro today - I can't think of anything which I may have done to actively cause it to go missing. I opened up the finder and dragged the applications icon from the LHS of the finder onto the RHS of the dock, but rather than reappearing in the doc it just disappeared.
    When I went back to the finder to try again I discovered that it had vanished from there as well. I ran a search in the finder for "applications" and found the applications folder in the results, but when I try to open it I get the following error message "The alias “Applications” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found."
    Does anyone have any ideas on what might have caused this or on how I get my Applications folder back on the Dock? Any help would be really appreciated!

    The Applications folder on the dock is a shortcut, or more specifically, an alias.
    It sounds like what you did was to drag the Applications item from the Finder sidebar...which is also an alias. By dragging it from the sidebar, it's as if you'd dragged an icon off the dock. It poofs and disappears.
    To get them back, open a Finder window and navigate to Macintosh HD (or whatever you've named your hard drive). At the root level of the drive lives your Applications folder (the actual folder, not an alias). Drag that one to the sidebar to replace that shortcut, and drag it again to the Dock to replace that shortcut as well.
    If you click on Macintosh HD and all you see are System, Library, and Users and have no Applications folder, then something terrible has happened.

  • The icons on the tool bar to the right (Bluetooth, time, volume etc) are missing. How do I restore them? Do I have to use my installer discs again?

    I started up my iMac G5 this morning, and all the icons to the right end of the tool bar are missing, namely time counter, bluetooth logo, volume slider etc
    are missing. Do I have to re-install the startup disc to get them back?

    For Bluetooth, Time and volume, go to System Preferences and click on them there, select "show in Menu Bar" you will then see them in the Menu/tool bar again.

  • "wdp" folder missing under the bin folder

    Hi All,
    I have no clue whats going on.
    I have been successfully developing my WD application and deploying it on the server.But recenetly i added a few Value Nodes and value attributes to the Component Controller and tried to deploy the application but the deployment terminated in between without any messages.
    I the rebuild the project and saw a lot of errors pertaining to my Import Statements in my java files which i am using for writing my business logic.
    The unresolved import is the Interface file of my component controller.On checking further inside the bin folder in the navigator view I found that the "wdp" folder itself is missing.
    I even deleted all the Value nodes and attributes that i had created but it didnt solve the problem.The "wdp" folder is created internally by the system.
    I even created a new WD project and pasted the contents from the previous project but the same wdp folder went missing again.
    Can someone tell me whats happening. Why is the "wdp" folder missing and how i can regenrate it so that my application may work again.
    i am not being able to slove it at all.
    Warm Regards
    Krishna

    Hi,
    Remove the project from workspace. Import it fresh, check component controller for errors.
    If there are errors,
    a) Go to the location of project in folder strcture
    b) Check properties of files : .project and .classpath
    c) If they are read only, change them explicitly to - read only false
    d) reload & rebuild the project

  • My media drop menu for music, tv shows, etc. is missing in iTunes?

    My media drop menu for music, tv shows, etc. is missing in iTunes?

    A lot of it may be artwork. My iTunes is 40,000 songs (213Gb and I have almost 9Gb of artwork - and that's been downsized to 300X300 "web optimized" images too)
    Also, there is a discrepancy between the way iTunes shows files size and the way OS X does.
    iTunes (most likely because there is also a Windows version) uses "binary" calculations (1mb = 1024kb and so on) where OS X uses "decimal" calculation (1mb = 1000kb and so on).
    120gGb in iTunes is 122,880mb. That same 120Gb in OS X is 120,000mb.
    The files are the same size, but OS X will show more available space than iTunes will.
    Still, artwork and duplicates are the #1 & #2 culprits. 
    Lastly, the bit rate of your music can be a factor. If everything is 320kbps or more... or Apple Lossless (800kbps+ usually) your music files are a lot bigger than you probably need, unless you're a music professional (DJ or producer). Try converting them down to a bit rate in the area of 160 or 192kbps. 192 is the MAX for anything in my library, because I only use it for home listening.

  • Home/Library folder missing among other things (Lion 10.7.1)

    Since I upgraded to Lion, my 1 year old iMac has been running incredibly slow. It takes forever for any apps to open. Printing takes forever, and Preview - forget about it.
    Versions worked right after the install, but not since.
    Today, an application which I have been using for a long time (but not every day) stopped working. I went to update some plugins, but to do so I had to go into home/library/application support/ ... That's when I found the folder missing!
    I imagin this is why my system is so slow and wonky. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
    Thanks, in advance, Fran

    Thanks so much for this! Any suggestions on the cause of the slowness and missing parts of Lion - like Versions? It's probably staring me in the face (like the "missing" folder).

  • Mail complaining Mail folder missing in the User Library

    Has anyone encountered this issue? I ran a recent update for Mountain Lion and after the update Mail could no longer find the Mail folder in the User Library even when the folder is still there and coughs up the Mail folder missing error message. I've tried rebuilding permisions even replacing the Mail Folder to no avail. can anybody help?

    Bee,
    Thanks for the reply. Bee, I am aware that the user library is hidden. That isn't the issue I'm afraid.
    What is happening is that when I launch Mail, it coughs up an error message saing that it cannot find the Mail folder in the ~/user/library. The weird part is that the folder does exist but Mail just doesn't see it.

  • I have Adobe Pro X and use a PC.  My menu toolbar (file, edit, view, etc) is missing.  I tried to reset the toolbars and nothing happened.

    I have Adobe Pro X and use a PC.  My menu toolbar (file, edit, view, etc) is missing.  I tried to reset the toolbars and nothing happened.

    Press the F9 key to toggle the menu bar on and off. A PDF can contain a setting that will hide the menu bar automatically, which I find very annoying, but you can turn this off with the following preference: Edit > Preferences > Documents > Allow documents to hide the menu bar...
