External Speedlite Control Error

Hi there. I have my 580EX II connected to my 5D Mark II via a Vello cord. I used to be able to control the flash on the back of the camera just fine using the External Speedlite Control menu function. Now the last few days I am getting an error that says "This menu cannot be displayed. Incompatible flash or flash's power is turned off." The flash fires just fine. So what could possibly be going on?
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Sheri

Try putting the flash directly into the hot shoe and see if everything works normally again.
If so, then the cord is likely the problem. But to be honest, those cords are really nothing more than a bundle of wires from a hot foot to a secondary hot shoe. There's not really a whole lot to go wrong with them. They are relatively cheap to replace, but it might be worth carefully disassembling the end to see if you can spot a loose wire or something.

How to control errors in BPM

HI all,
We are developing a quite complicated BPM. We need to controle errors in File Adapter, just in case the comunication channel cannot write/read (for example with a wrong FTP account). In case of error we need to send an email. So we are trying to develop a module in the file adapter. We are not sure about behaviour of the BPM if one of the steps have an error. I mean the execution of the module will continue the BPM in case of error in the file adapter?
Many thanks in advance

LabView for Linux/Mac: integrate external UI controls

Hello,
for Windows, there's the posibillity to integrate (UI-)controls written in annother language using ActiveX or .NET. Is there an equivalent solution for Linux and Mac?
I.e., can I use a GTK or Carbon/Cocoa based control in LabView on Linux or Mac? I know I can utilize external libraries, but this will not allow me to display any UI elements alongside LabView controls on the same Panel without putting considerable effort in subclassing the window, which is also not so easy on Mac.
Thanks in Advance
Alexander Hofmann

Hi Alexander,
there is no such functionality that allows you to integrate external UI controls under Linux or Mac.
However you can call Frameworks or Shared Libraries under Linux and Mac in order to communicate with external applications.
Alternatively you can go the other way round and create Shared Libraries of your LabVIEW application, that can be called within external applications.
Below you can find some helpful links reagrding this topic:

External transaction control and ability to find new registered objects

Hello, We are using Toplink with external transaction control and have a process inserting a complex hierarchy of objects. During the process we either do a registerObject or deepmergeClone depending on if the instance is already in the db. With external transaction control the registerObject does not actually do the commit to db until the global transaction (Container) issues the commit. Unfortunately we end up doing creating multiple instances of same objects ( because the assumption that registerObject would have written the row to the db ) with the same keys and when the container issues the commit we end up with duplicate key violation. Is there a way to find out if an object with a particular key is already registered?

This sounds like the kind of question that can only be answered with a whiteboard and a good review of your architecture.
In general, there should be no problem registering objects multiple times. I.e.,
x = some object
x1 = uow.registerObject(x);
Then x1==uow.registerObject(x), and x1==uow.registerObject(x1), etc. When you register an object with the UOW, based on PK it'll always return that same one.
Do you have multiple units of work on the go? (that may explain this behavior).
In any case, I think the real problem here is that you're somehow registering objects that are no longer cached. I.e., some object is serialized or rebuilt and then registered after it's gone from the cache. By default, TopLink determines if an object is new or existing (to determine INSERT vs UPDATE) by hitting the cache. You can change this default behavior in the Mapping Workbench, open the advanced property for "Identity" and change existence checking to "check database". Although, this can be a slow and tedious process to have to keep hitting the DB.
A little trick I use sometimes is to take advantage of the "readObject" API that will read the object from the databaes if it's not already in cache, and just return it from cache if it is in cache. Check out the UOW primer at http://otn.oracle.com/products/ias/toplink/index.html for more info, but the jist is that I would do this if I were you:
x = some object that you're not sure is cached and you want to register in UOW;
x' = uow.readObject(x);
IF the object was in cache, you'd get back a working copy, nice and fast. IF it's not in cache, you hit the database, it goes in cache, and you get your working copy. Now you don't have to change the existence checking option which could slow everything down.

Elicense control error

Hello all. Everytime i try to start logic without my nexus license dongle i get the eLicense control error and logic refuses to start. The problem is that I do a lot of work in logic on the plane and in hotel rooms and don't always have my license key handy. I should still be able to work on that session and just not access those particular plug ins unless i have the key installed. I don't see why i cannot even get the session to open. Does anyone know a workaround for this. I am buying the uad satellite bundle and im sure im going to have the same problem with this. But my main goal is to be able to open any track and work on a particular part weather or not my license is plugged in. This is how it is in ableton. The session will open but i just cant access nexus or UAD. PLEASE HELP

I wonder if you could setup two separate accounts on your laptop and only install nexus on one of them? Not sure if the nexus software is installed into the user library or a global location, but seems like it would be worth a try.
Excellent suggestion....
If that doesn't work the OP could just move the Nexus AU out of the Components folder before starting an "on the road" session.
That would be in Root/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components
Logic never did have graceful exit strategies... if it finds something amiss it often tends to freeze or crash.

Error when re-starting an SQL Server Instance from VBA - [SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.

Our Application needs to have the use of the [Named Pipes] and [TCP/IP] Protocols. To save our Users the hassle of having to enable them manually our application has always done it for them and then stopped and restarted SQL Server. However
since the advent of Vista and Windows 7, the restart stopped working. We solved the problem by detecting the failure to re-start and giving Users sufficient instructions for them to do it themselves. Since this only occurs during installation on
the Server, this approach has not been too much of a hassle. However we would like to tidy this up if possible. This the VBA code that is causing the problem:
    obj_SQLServerInstance2.Start _
        g_SQL_UseWindowsAuthentication, _
        SQLServerInstance, _
        UserName, _
        Password
This still works when run under XP, but fails under Windows 7 with the Error:
[SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.
Does anyone know how to resolve the problem?

This still works when run under XP, but fails under Windows 7 with the Error:
[SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.
Hello Brian,
Under Windows 7 you have to run the VBA script with admin permission, a normal user don't have permissions to start/stop services.

ACS Server: External Authentication configuration error

Hi ALL
I have installed the ACS server and configure properly and it works fine.
But whenever i restart the machine, following error message appears on the external database configuration wizard.
External Authentication Configuration Error
ACS has encountered a problem while attempting to process your request. This could be due to one of the following:
An incorrect installation or configuration of the third-party DLLs required to support this External Database
A corrupt ACS configuration
So after i found this error, i just restart all the seven services and every things works fine.
I always encountered the same error message after restarting the machine each time.
Can any body recomend the solution or can help me to resolve the issue.
Thanks

Hi,
Please try the following workaround.
1. Go to Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.
2. Stop the following services in the following order.
CSAuth
CSDbSync
CSLog
CSMon
CSRadius
CSTacacs
CSAdmin
3. After stopping the following services, start them all again in the following order.
CSAdmin
CSAuth
CSDbSync
CSLog
CSMon
CSRadius
CSTacacs
Please let me know if this was able to help.
If the above doesn't help, please reinstall the ACS as the dll files that are being used
by the ACS have been corrupted, before uninstalling and reinstalling, do take a
backup of ACS server database from System Configuration > ACS backup > Backup Now.
Also make sure that the ACS is installed on the default drive.
tnx

How do I fix "could not be added to AVI control" error?

How do I fix "could not be added to AVI control" error? I get this error when loading a file via the Clip/Insight Player.

Hello acacord,
are you working with an AVI using the Indeo codec? On Windows XP, after
installing the service pack 2, files using this particular codec cannot
be played if they are placed in the temporary Windows folder. This is
due to Windows restrictions, not to CLIP.
If you run a cip file in CLIP, it would unpack all its content
(including the AVI) to that temp folder and play the video from there -
which is not possible.
With the current version, all CLIP examples are using the Radius codec
instead ov the Indeo. As you can see ich you make a test with one of
the example projects - it is working well.
So in your case, just use a different codec than the Indeo.

Cannot find "Midi Destination" drop menu in External Instrument control window...

I'm using Logic X Pro, and am attempting to use Sylenth as a VST. In order to do so, I watched this video tutorial...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I-mNj-TLGM at minute mark 5:39, the External Instrument control window is displayed, and a drop down menu item titled "Midi Destination" is shown. I am not seeing that on my Logic.
Can anyone please speak to this? Can you see this option in your window?
Thanks so much.

External Version Control usage with SAP

Hi,
I am trying to get info on configuring an external version control tool to use with SAP. I am aware of Version Management that is provided by SAP as part of Workbench Organizer and DTR for NetWeaver Developer Studio (for Java programs). However, my requirement is, to configure an external versioning system which can maintain the different versions of the source outside SAP system(not within the SAP repository). This is necessary to recover the system even in case of SAP system crashes also.
Please let me know if we can integrate any Version Control Software like Perforce or CVS to use with SAP. I like to store ABAP programs, ABAP Data Dictionary objects etc. in it. Please point me to a useful document or resource which explains this in detail (if one is available).
Any pointers are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Krishna.

Thanks for your feedback Nico and Carsten. The feedback on snapshots is very relevant and the sort of feedback that I was looking for.
I will continue looking at external version control, but at the same time look at snapshots. For example, when doing a checkin operation to checkin to external version control, my script may be able to automatically create a signature snapshot of the object at the same time. Please let me know if, for some reason, that won't be feasible.
Thanks,
Gavin

"Unable to create control" error

I have installed Quicktime 7.13. There were some installation issues revolving around the inability to uninstall the older version, which required editing registry keys to allow deletion. At last the install went without errors. The icon appears in the task tray.
However, whenever I try to start the QT player, the Error window "Unable to create control" appears. If I click OK, the GUI appears, but I get the same error if I try to open a .mov file. Whenever I try to open a jpg or bmp in the Picture viewer, I get a window stating "Couldn't display [six or seven gibberish characters.]
I need some direction on these symptoms. Thanks.

I had the same problem after installing QuickTime 7.1.3 through the iTunes version 7 download. I could run iTunes OK, but when I tried to start QuickTime I received the "Unable to create control" error in my user ID which has admin privileges and which was used for the install. My son's user ID, which does not have admin privileges, ran iTunes and Quicktime with no problems.
I finally decided to remove QuickTime using my user ID and using the Windows Add/Remove Programs function in the Control Panel. I then downloaded QuickTime without iTunes from the Apple website and re-installed it. It now works fine in both my user ID and my son's ID.
I'm not an expert on this stuff, but maybe uninstalling and re-installing QuickTime could solve your issue, too.
