Exception received from deployment driver. See Error Log view for more detail.

Look at the Apache Axis2 docs for weblogic.
I had to include a file modules.list under WB-INF/modules , which contains the mar file names.
It is in the docs, it might help you?
It did work for me on deploying Business Objects wars

  • ClassCastException: You must use ResultSet from this driver!class webl

    Hi,
    I have configured the Connection pool and DataSources for SQLServer using inet-OPTA
    drivers.
    I am using the CachedRowSet implementation from inet and it seems to bomb out
    with the following error stack trace:
    STACK TRACE:
    java.lang.ClassCastException: You must use ResultSet from this driver!class webl
    ogic.jdbc.rmi.SerialResultSet
    at com.inet.tds.CachedRowSet.a(Unknown Source)
    at com.inet.tds.CachedRowSet.populate(Unknown Source)
    Any ideas of what is causing this problem ?
    Is it that i cannot use the CachedRowSet implementation from inet.
    If that is the case we have lot of code that uses this and i will have to change
    a lot.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks
    Venu

    The code is in one of the utility classes that is in the classpath and this utility
    class is used by the Stateless session EJB that i deployed in the WebLogic AppServer.
    As i understand, Weblogic 8.1 is out and i will try running on it.
    Thanks

    Do you have any idea when the 8.1 will be available (i believe it isstill in

    I'll find out. Do answer my other question: Where is this code running
    that gets the exception?

    VenuHi. What version of the server are you using. This problem will goaway
    for 8.1.
    We currently wrap all JDBC objects from pooled drivers, to maintaincontrol
    over
    the pooled connection. Where is this code running that gets the exception.
    It seems that Inet's rowset implementation needs to cast the resultset
    it gets
    to be inet's result set object, in order to make some non-standardmethod
    calls.

  • Broken in Logic 9?: Reindex loops from external drive

    Adding loops from an external drive in Logic 9 does not seem to work any longer. It used to work great in L8. Anyone have similar experiences? Know any work arounds? Is it a bug? If it's a bug I'll file it with Apple.
    Previously in Logic 8 it was easy to reindex loops on an external drive:
    (1) Delete the loop indexes from root/Library/Audio/Apple Loops Index
    (2) Use Finder to locate the loops on the external
    (3) Drag the loop folders into the L8 media browser.
    (4) L8 asks if you want to copy the loops or use them from their present location. Select present location intsead of copy locally.
    (5) L8 takes 5-20 minutes to build index of loops from external drive
    I have tried this procedure several times in L9 without success. Instead I get the following:
    (1) Delete the loop indexes from root/Library/Audio/Apple Loops
    (2) Use Finder to locate the loops on the external
    (3) Drag the loop folders into the L8 media browser.
    (4) L9 ask for my admin password.
    (5) Enter my password
    (6) I'm NOT asked if I want to copy loops locally or use them in their present location. Instead a reindex progress dialog comes up for 2 seconds then goes away.
    (7) In the end nothing happened. No loops copied, indexed, or anything
    There is only one way I managed to get loops into L9 but it is exactly what I'm NOT looking for:
    (1) In the folder with all my loops spotlight search ".CAF" (In this case want to reindex Apple content which is all CAF)
    (2) Make sure to click "show more" at the bottom of the search results.
    (3) Drag the search results to the loop browser.
    (4) L9 indexes them all right, AND also copies them to my user library! All 30 GBs worth. Definitely not what I want.
    In the end, I had to reinstall the Loops from the DVDs and specify an external location for them. (This whole mess got started when I tried to move the GarageBand and iLife loops to an external drive. The installer does not let you specify a location for them.)
    Just so you know I've done some homework:
    I've scoured other Logic forums and found these relevant threads that in the end did not solve the issue. They mostly seem to refer to Logic 8 which does not have this issue.
    @ LUG
    Thread 1
    @ Logic Pro Help
    Thread 1
    Thread 2
    Thread 3 this fellow seems to have a similar problem as I. He drags folders into the loop browser but nothing happens.
    @ Apple Discussions
    Thread 1
    Thread 2

    I just installed LP9 and all my loops and samples are on external drives. The drag and drop onto the browser method worked fine and I WAS given the option to move the files or not. The only exception to the above is Ultrabeat samples. They seem to want to be on the System drive.

  • Error message when I try to copy new files (images, documents) to mac from flash drive/SD card

    I am recieving an error message when I try to copy new files (images, documents) to mac from flash drive/SD card. The message is saying "operation cannot be completed because an item already exists with that name." They are brand new therefore not the same name? I cannot even put them in a brand new folder...  How can I fix this?
    Please help me!

    You don't need to recover the system.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press the space bar:
    dot_clean -m
    Switch to the Finder and drag the icon of the flash drive into the Terminal window. Some text will appear after what you entered. Press return.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear. Then quit Terminal and try the copy again.

  • Copying from external drives repeatedly fails

    Hello!
    I have repeatedly had the same problem with my computer and external drives. I have 2 hard drives (150 gig Western Digital in an external USB 2.0 enclosure, and a 160 gig Maxtor in an external Firewire and USB 2.0 enclosure) from which I often cannot copy. I've never had problems writing to the drives, but sometimes copying from them freezes.
    I am a professional photographer and at any given time I'm working with far too many photos to fit on my laptop, yet I often need a particular project on my laptop so I can edit on the road. So I'm frequently moving projects to and from these drives.
    This problem is not only with photos, however. When I recently reformatted my hard drive (too many old programs installed and it was faster to just start over from scratch to clean up the drive), I first made a backup onto each of these external drives. But when I went to copy my iTunes library back onto the laptop the copying would freeze. I'd relaunch Finder and start it again and it would freeze on the exact same file. I did all the disk utility first aid operations on my laptop drive and the external drives and it still happened.
    If I connect the drive to my XP computer and transfer the files over my LAN then there's no problem. Makes me think the files are fine, as is the drive's integrity. Oh, and no problem copying these exact same files from one drive to the other, or from an external drive to the internal drive with the XP computer.
    When this problem is happening it doesn't matter which drive I use or by which interface, it always freezes on the exact same files. But if I open that file from the external drive in the appropriate application it reads it just fine. It's only when I'm copying the file. And it doesn't matter if I copy 10 gigs at once or one file at a time, the same files freeze up. If this was just one file every 6 months I could probably deal with it, maybe even just delete it and move on (as I've done with MP3s, since I own all the CDs and can re-rip the song). But when in a set of 10 gigs even if I delete one photo it freezes up again another couple hundred megabytes later.
    I'm baffled. I don't know what to do. The fact that it happens with multiple drives and multiple interfaces makes me think that it isn't a problem with the external enclosures or those drives. The only things in common are the exact files I'm transferring and the PowerBook.
    I'm really frustrated because I've found a situation where my XP box performs better than my Mac, and I'm a little shaken up about it.
    Any ideas?
    - Jon
    12 PowerBook G4 1.3GHz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   1.25 gigs, combo drive, all updates installed except Tiger.

    Yes, it's from a camera.
    Again, the file is not corrupt. It can be read by my Windows XP computer, opened in Photoshop, and all the data is present. And if I remove the file that isn't copying and start over it freezes on another one later. And then another. And another.
    I was forced to edit this wedding on my Windows box (with an older version of Photoshop - much slower than using CS2 on my Mac) because I have been unable to copy them to my PowerBook. This is incredibly frustrating. I've run all the disk utilities on my Mac and on the external drive. Nothing has improved the situation.
    This question has not been answered. Please help!

  • Error : class not found exception : com.mysql.jdbc.driver in Eclipse Tool

    Hi
    I have impoted project file in eclipse in new machine using option import from existing workbence . When i stat to debug this project ,
    i am getting error as class not found exception : com.mysql.jdbc.driver . my project folder already consist of mysql .jar file in /web appls/web-inf folder.
    Application is running successfully in other machine from where i took the application file. As this error appeared I also added jar file into project path as Project ---->properties-- build java path---libraries----add external jar file.
    kindly hep me.

    Sounds like an eclipse question - not a JDBC one.
    But since eclipse is telling you it can't find it then it means it is not in the eclipse path. So you must add it. (The fact that it is somewhere is irrelevant - all that matters is it is not in the class path.)

  • Plan to move photos from one drive to another - Need advice

    My C: drive is almost out of space. I want to move my photos to a new internal hard drive.
    In PSA SE 3, I've already tagged these photos. I want to know what's the easiest way to move my photos from one drive to another without losing my tags. Will "Reconnect Missing Files" find the moved files on a new drive if I keep my path the same (except for the drive letter)? Or will I have to reconnect the files manually one-at-a-time?
    Any advice is appreciated!

    I might. I think I have MySQL installed at home. I have MS SQL Server at work. Is the application data file Access-compatible? I'd love to be able to just hack the underlying data store.

  • HP SureStore App Fails From J: Drive Letter Missing

    No Help in Desktop Hrdware:
    Win 7 Hm Prem --- I "Believe " my HP Pocket Media BkUp Drive Software is failing to work NOW because the Removable Disk "Drive Letter" (J) it was ALWAYS assigned has Disappeared.
    With a Temp removal of my HP PD3200X (BkUp) Drive a Verbatim USB was inserted and Assigned the SAME (J).
    I REMOVED it with Safely Remove Hardware INSTEAD of the USUAL Clk'ing of the V-Safe 100 ICON that always Released the USB. I am suspicious that is WHY (J) is MISSING and the HP Drive is NOW assigned (K).
    Computer / Rt Clk (J) and then EJECT produces Msg That "(J) is CURRENTLY IN USE. Save Files & then Exit. Clk Continue may cause loss of data."
    NEITHER diskmgmt.msc or a Nirsoft utilitiy App "USBDeview" show (J) is In Use.
    (J) appears everyehere it should EXCEPT in the Change Drive Letter Menu (J Missing) ......
    The SureStore Sync Shtcut disappeared when I Unpinned it from task Mgr but Clking on it B4 that produced "please Insert Disk into Removable Disk (J). The Driver doesn't "Appear" to Load now when Drive 1st Inserted.
    I Dnloaded the LATEST SureStore App Update (4-8-2010) and AFTER 3 Install attempts It Actually WORKED. Upon Re-Boot Nothing appears to load / No Icon appears to Clk / Activate and (I THINK) it's looking for (J) for some reason. I have to RE-Install the Update Each Time I want to do a C: Update Sync to the HP Drive (now K.
    FIXIT and Control Panel Troubleshooting / Hardware & Sound = No Help.
    Will appreciate  Any assistance !!!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I recovered J: by Removing the HP BkUp Drive & going to Device Mgr / Disk Drives and Uninstalling All 5 USB Device Members. Plugged in Drive and it was Assigned (K. Did Change Drive Letter routine and (J was NOW AVAILABLE again. I made the change to J:.
    My biggest Problem was Not Knowing that after the 4-8-10 SureStore App Ver 1.0.1.15 Update Install I should have gone to Start/ Computer, and made a Desktop Shortcut for HPSureStore.exe visible there. All has worked since so J: probbly could have remained lost IF I had known how to setup the Shortcut. I was going to Appdata and finding (3) SureStore.exe's that didn't do anything.
    All is well.  FYI.

  • MacPro can't boot from external drive

    Running 10.7.3 and a MacPro which gets backed up each night with SuperDuper. Can't boot from this drive (black screen). Yet I can take the same drive and start up my Macbook Pro! So it isn't the drive or the data on it. I'm stumped. Could this be related to an issue where I can't get this same MacPro or system to successfully backup to Time Machine without error? The boot drive seems OK (ran Disk Warrior and Disk Utility).

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

    Hi John,
    Are you still chasing this issue down?
    I have found that one of the causes of the "System.BadImageFormatException" exception results from the following set of circumstances:
    o 32-bit ODP.NET installed on 64-bit o/s
    o .NET application compiled with either "Any CPU" or "x64" set for the "Platform target"
    o The application is then deployed to the 64-bit host with the 32-bit ODP.NET installed
    o The application executes as a 64-bit application but tries to load the 32-bit ODP.NET, thus the exception
    Not sure if this might apply to your situation, but I see "C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework64" in the text you provided. Since there is not yet a 64-bit release of ODP.NET 11g I wonder if this might be the case.
    For what it's worth, I have not experienced any of the problems you've described in your other threads, but I am using 10.2.0.4 on Intel 64-bit with Win 2003...

  • MS-6728 won't boot from DVD drive?

    I have a MS-6728 motherboard with bios v2.5 that won't boot from a bootable DVD disk. Here's what I've tried so far:
    - Made sure the DVD drive was the first one in the BIOS boot device list.
    - Tried two different DVD drives. One plain DVD drive. The other was a DVD dual layer writer. Both were PATA.
    - Booted the DVD from three other machines to confirm it's not the DVD disk. It worked fine on all of them.
    - Put the DVD drive from one of the machines that booted it correctly into the MS-6728 machine. That didn't fix the problem.
    - Removed all drives except the PATA DVD drive and one SATA hard drive. No luck.
    - Booted the MS-6728 machine from a bootable CD. That worked it was a Windows XP Pro install CD.
    The DVD is a Debian install DVD BTW. Also I tried it each time by doing the F11 (select boot device) and just letting the BIOS auto detect everything. Each time I see a quick flash of "boot record not found" but I know the DVD is bootable since it worked with three other machines. The DVD was made from a ISO image downloaded from the net. I have booted the machine several times before from CDs.
    I'm wondering if the BIOS only supports bootable CDs and not bootable DVDs?
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    How many IDE controllers does you board have? If it has more than 2, make sure that the DVD drive is connected to Intel controller and not Promise Controller.

  • How do i eject a cd rom from the drive...?

    Hello All!
    How do i eject a cd-rom from the the optical drive when the icon doesn't appear on the desktop? Its just spinning and vibrating.
    When I try shutting down the mini, everything happens correctly but the drive just spins and doesn't finish... So I had to unplug the unit. Still nothing...
    I am the new owner of a refurbished mid-2010 MACmini.
    The disc was an old cd-rom from 2003 with a label. I guess I won't do that again.
    HELP!

    I tried several sugestions I read else where and this is what worked for me:
    Reboot while holding down option key. Shifted to restore disc and tried to eject from disc utility, but no luck. I went to apple and shutdown except that with the drive spinning it wouldn't complet the task. So I unplugged & restarted while holding down the mouse key. The drive grumbled and spit out the disc! Yay!!! I threw said cd-rom across the room!
    I hope that I haven't hurt my new baby mini!
    Thanks for all your previous posts. They gave me something to try instead of pulling my hair out!
    Kudos to you all!!!

  • Trouble Booting from External Drives - MBA 2012

    Hello,
    I have a brand new 13" MBA which I'm working on building an image to use for deployment using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.5. For whatever reason, I can't boot the new 2012 MBA from an external LaCie FW800 or Thunderbolt 1TB Little Big Disk that is running either 10.7.2 or 10.7.4. As soon as I select the drive to boot from when holding the Options key or from selecting the partition from Startup Disk in System Preferences, I get the do not enter icon(circle with the diagonal slash). I tried both plugged in through a Cinema Display and plugging the Thunderbolt drive directly to the laptop. I confirmed both LaCie drives boot properly on an iMac and the last gen MBP/MBA.
    Laptop Specs:
    13"
    1.8GHz Dual-core i5
    8GB
    128 SSD
    10.7.4
    Curious if anyone has run into any problems booting from external drives on the new 2012 MBA.
    Thanks,
    Paolo

    Please be sure you have prepped these external drives correctly:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    My suggestion for cloning is to use Disk Utility. This will also automatically clone the Recovery HD, as well:
    Clone Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue button.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
