Faulty Installation and Unique Issues

First of all, I'll tell you I'm in the middle of Nowhere, China and no one here knows what Apple, Mac, or FireWire means in Chinese or English. It's just not known here.
My MacBook suffered a loss of power today during an upgrade to Leopard that I had been putting off. Now I can start from the Installation Disc, but if I select "Macintosh HD" at startup, I eventually get delivered to a grey screen that goes nowhere. Starting from the disc to try to reinstall presents the problem of not enough storage space now that the faulty install has eaten up a good 7 or so GB. I tell you I'm in China because I can't find a FireWire here to use in Target Disk Mode and the government has issued a halt on the mailing of any electronic equipment until November 1, 2008, because of the Olympics. Now I have a brick instead of a MacBook that I'm not willing to clean install because it's LOADED with irreplaceable data that I can't transfer (to my knowledge, which is where you come in) at this point. I still have the option to run utilities when the installation disk is in, but am not experienced enough to know without your help how to make a backup to any kind of external disk from there. Also, if there's a way to just reverse what changes were made in the faulty installation from 10.4.11 to 10.5.1, I'd be more than happy to hear those or any other solutions you have to offer. Thanks a million!!

If you can boot with the install disks and can hook up an external HD, then use Disk Utility to create an image of the hosed internal HD (result of interrupted installation) onto the ext HD. Then, wipe and reinstall Leopard (since I'm assuming that you failed to make a bootable backup of your Tiger installation), boot into the installation, mount the disk image, and try to use the Migration Assistant to transfer user and network settings.

  • Project Gantt Bar Bug in P6 (EPPM and PM) - A strange and Unique Issue

    Hello All,
    I have 18 projects in my production EPS but one has a problem, i've been unable to resolve, so far.
    The Issue*
    In the Project-Layout-View (Project Space), when I look at project X's Gantt Bar, following is observed.
    A- When he Project is Open:
    All is good. There is no issue.
    1- The bar length and position are good, i.e., it starts and ends at right location on the timescale.
    2- The bar has two colours (blue for actual and green for remaining) separated at the point where the Data Date is.
    3- Project Baseline Bar is all good
    B- When the Project is Closed:
    The Bar goes corrupt.
    1- The bar starts at the right spot on timescale but goes beyond its forecast finish by about 1 year.
    2- The whole bar has only one colour, blue, which mis-informs the viewer that the project has completed.
    3- Project Baseline Bar stays good
    Issue Environment"
    - I have P6 V8.2 (stand alone) and P6 V8.0 (Enterprise) both on Win 7 and the issue appears in both.
    - The issue appeared about halfway of the project progress.
    - I've tried summarizing - but in vain
    Look forward to seeing some interesting solution(s) from you.
    Regards

    Thanks ITPM
    Creating a new layout from scratch did not help.
    But something else happened that fixed the problem.
    The issue disappeared as soon as I updated the schedule in question with an updated XER, as our usual fortnightly exercise. So, looks like the issue started and ended in the source database.
    Now, when I stack the latest as well as 20 archived copies of project X sorted by finish dates, and all closed, in the project layout view, I see a nicely (uniformly) increasing blue colour, project after project, except the last fortnight's archive copy whose Gantt bar is corrupt - corrupt as described in the very first text of this thread.
    I still don’t know why and shall keep thinking about and shall ask the source re their view(s). This is not a serious issue for me but, could be serious to those fellows who have their summary/tracking layouts accessible (or designed to be accessible) by their project staff.

  • Installation and Other Issues

    I recently upgraded from Crystal 11.5 to Crystal 2008.  Since then I have been battling a host of problems trying to make this work.  This is the latest.
    I had a problem running some older reports in a web application.  I was getting the Login Failed error, which can mean about anything.  So I was going to upgrade the report definition to the new Crystal 2008 format.  Since I installed Crystal 2008, I have been having an issue with the report designer.  The disoplay would not refresh the background.  Whatever was on the screen when you opened the designer was in teh background and if you opened a dialog while in the designer, it remained on the screen even though the function completed successfully.  This confusing display made the designer impossible to work with.
    So I decided to reinstall Crystal 2008 to see if there was something wrong in the setup.  I opend control panel and uninstalled all the crystal 2008 components, which included Crystal 2008 SP2, Crystal 2008 SP3 and one other component.  All the uninstalls ran successfully.  I still have Crystal Reports XI release 2 installed.
    I tried to run the install for Crystal.  The install runs fine until it comes to the section to register the dll's.  Then it fails.  Below is the first message that I get. After that I get the same message for every module to be registered.
    Error 1904. Module C: u2018program Files\BusinessObjects\BusinessQbjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\ReportConvTool .dll failed to register.
    HRESULT -2147024770. Contact your support personnel.
    I have every version of the .Net framework on this machine and they are all up to the most current level.  I have Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 on this machine as well.  I am an administrator, and I do not have permission issues.
    I am getting very weary of dealing with Crystal Reports technical problems.  Nothing should be this difficult to make it work out of the box.  Can someone help me.

    Hello,
    PLEASE don't post the same question in multiple forums.
    Install SP3 and test again and then search this for forum as well as Microsoft's site for the 1904 error. It's an MSIExec error code. Typically it's missing Windows dependencies or your PC needs to upgrade the MS Installer program.
    Usually when dll's fail to register is because the OS is missing windows dependencies and likely the C++ runtime package.
    Thank you

  • Installation and compatibility issues with photoshop CS4 - Win 8

    I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 8. I am experiencing issues when attempting to install the downloaded and upgrade copy of photoshop CS4. Initially unpacking the software presented issues, but I believe they've been resolved - specifically I had to change the folder attribute from read only  while unpacking, of course the tedium arose when this endeavor didn't seem to apply the new attributes to all subfolders and files. I percivered though by repeating it for each folder throughout. When I select the icon for the setup.exe file though the process ends as quickly as it began. I considered that it my have been seeking the previous version (in my case photoshop elements) so I sought to install it first, but as you may have guessed the old software is experiencing it's own compatibility issues. Does anyone know if photoshop CS4 will even work in Windows 8, and I hope someone will have already cleared this hurdle and can give me direction - please, I really am hoping for a life preserver here!
    Thankyou, Chris
    PS I did attempt to open one of the attached adobe reader files that came with the downloaded copy, but unfortunately they won't open prior to installation given they show the file size 0kb. I don't know if these files are simply acting as place holders for the cab files - or whether there remains an issue while unpacking the files to begin with.

    If the executable doesn't even run, it's either being shut down by some security stuff on your system or can't find a component. Impossible to tell. whiel there may be compatibility issues, on a more general level CS4 should run on Win 8...

  • Two independent installation and performance issue

    Hi,
    We have installed two independent DBs (11gr2 enterprise 64 bit)on a large box with 80 cores 256GB RAM.
    The data files for both DBs are on ram. The objective is to find if we can double perf number with two instances.
    What we see is that when both instances are run the "log file sync" event takes 5 times more time (there are other wait events also go up).
    db2: (when db2 running alone)
    log file sync 202,445 21 0 .9 Commit
    db2: (when db1 & db2 running together)
    log file sync 267,512 97 0 4.5 Commit
    The CPU load average -1 comes down from
    14.1 to 1.68 though CPU utilization jumps from 41% to 82%.
    There are two independent installations. We are trying to find out how one instance of DB can affect other (make other wait more), unless there is an underlying issue in the common resource used by both.
    The SGAs should be allocated and accessed by DBs separately, right?
    ipcs -m shows:
    ------ Shared Memory Segments --------
    key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status
    0xe93e5adc 262144 oracle 660 4096 0

    0xcd05b8c4 622594 oracle 660 4096 0
    if we turn off one db then
    ------ Shared Memory Segments --------
    key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status
    0x13074fa0 491521 oracle 660 1612709888 0
    0xcd05b8c4 622594 oracle 660 4096 0
    I am not very familiar oracle and do not know how to find memory layout of oracle DB. Any help/pointer is appreciated.
    What is the best way to find out that two DBs do not share the same SGA/resources?
    The two DBS have everything different except ora inventory.

    Without a lot more information there really isn't much one can say other than that, properly installed, the two should be completely independent of each other.
    That said it seems that is not the case which takes us back to what none of us out here can know ... what isn't as you assume it should be.
    What is most confusing to me is this statement:
    The data files for both DBs are on ram. The objective is to find if we can double perf number with two instances.I have no idea what either sentence is intended to mean. The first because datafiles are not "on RAM" and the second because two instances will never double anything other than resource utilization and overhead.

  • CS5 Installation and Update issues

      I am trying to re-install Photoshop CS5 onto my Win 7 Ultimate System. I know from previously installing it several years ago that there was an issue with installing it with Adobe Raeder on a system. Something to do with folder location issues. I have tried re-installing CS5 and it does install (apparently Reader issue solved(?)). Both 32bit and 64bit seem to install ok. I can open Photoshop and access the program.
    Problem:  When I try to do updates for the software, that are available, they download and then hang on install. The Adobe installer stops responding and nothing installs.
      Could someone pleas assist me with this issue.
    Thank You

  • Linux installation and display issues

    PROBLEM:
    During installation, the following error occurs:
    No Java virtual machine could be found from your PATH
    environment variable. You must install a VM prior to
    running this program.
    RESOLUTION:
    Install Java 1.5 and make sure that it's in your PATH environment. To
    doublecheck that Java 1.5, simply
    type 'java -version'.
    PROBLEM:

    RESOLUTION:
    Add your browser's library dependencies by editing the /etc/ld.so.conf and
    add /<PATH>/firefox or /
    <PATH>/mozilla directory.
    Example: /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.7
    Make sure that the path to firefox or mozilla contains the
    /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.7/libxpcom.so. After
    that, run ldconfig command to update your library.
    Install compat-libstdc++-33 library. For Fedora users, simply type: "yum

  • CRYSTAL Reports 2010 for VS 2010 Installation and Deployment issues

    On Installing Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 the Crystal Report Viewer in the Toolbox reports itself as Version 13.0.2000.0. When dragging said viewer onto an ASPX Page it: -
    1) Comes up with the wrong version: - Assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=10.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304", NOT 13.0.2000.0!
    2) The ADE visualisation of the ASPX Page comes up with the following error: - "Error Creating Control - ContentPlaceHolder1. SessionState can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true. ...............
    In my Web.Config file enableSessionState is set to true AND System.Web,SessionStateModule is referenced in <httpModules> the message is therefore less than helpful.
    3) Surprisingly when I correct the Version to 13.0.2000.0, the same error happens. Even more surprisingly the page builds and in the development environment the CrystalReportViewer works@#@!! Unfortunately when deployed to a production Web Serrver W2K8 x64 and IIS7.x the page loads but the viewer does not, no errors are caught, the event viewer log is happy. (The click-once Runtimes x32 and x64 have been installed on the server).
    The same code works fine in VS2008 targetting CR 2008.
    How do I:
    1) Get CR2010 for VS2101 Installed Correctly?
    2) Deploy The Viewer to a production server?

    This is a known issue (unfortunately, no KB created yet as I just duplicated and reported the issue to QA (tracking number; ADAPT01506220)  two days ago).
    The issue appears only on computers with side by side install of .NET 2008 and .NET 2010.
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    1) Remove the following from the web.config:
    <add assembly="CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=10.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>
    <add assembly="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource, Version=10.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>
    <add assembly="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=10.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692FBEA5521E1304"/>
    2) Open the form that has the viewer on it, go to code behind and replace this:
    <%@ Register assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=10.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web"; tagprefix="CR" %>
    with:
    <%@ Register assembly="CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304" namespace="CrystalDecisions.Web"; tagprefix="CR" %>
    3) Go to the Properties of the project, select references and remove crystaldecisions.web of version 10.5.3700
    4) In the Properties, click the Add button and then the .NET tab and select crystaldecisions.web version 13.0.2000.0
    5) Recompile.
    Distribute the CRVS2010 runtime.

    BTW. the same issue exists with WIN apps. The fix here is much easier; Remove all CR 10.5.3700 references from the project and add references to 13.0.2000 assemblies. (tracking number; ADAPT01506310).

  • OracleDI Installation and Java issues

    I am brand new to ODI and just downloaded and installed it yesterday onto a test machine. I have not yet created my DB schemas yet I am waiting for the DBA to create a Test Environment for me to do so in. That being said, when i try to run the Examples that came with the Oracle Data Integrator the OracleDI Demo Repository, Source Data Server and Target Data Server all start up in cmd windows and on all three cmd windows is a statement: "A JDK is required to execute Web Services with OracleDI. You are currently using a JRE"
    My system is Windows XP Pro based, I downloaded and installed both j2sdk-1_4_2_17-windows-i586-p.exe and jdk-1_5_0_15-windows-i586-p.exe, but i still receive the same warning on the cmd windows.
    Any ideas on how i can switch to the JDK instead of using the JRE? Or any ideas on how to stop this warning from showing up?

    ODI uses ODI_JAVA_HOME environment variable to find java.exe
    if ODI_JAVA_HOME is not defined it uses JAVA_HOME
    For standard features a JRE 1.5 is enough however for Data Service generation ODI needs a JDK 1.5 .
    Please be sure the path in ODI_JAVA_HOME is really a JDK
    To find out what you are running from a default JVM ( to see if you have a JDK already installed ), type java - version on a command prompt ( what your JAVA_HOME is ).
    Find out what your ODI_JAVA_HOME is set to presently ( likely JRE 1.4.2 ). Set it to a JDK 1.5 ( you will need to download a JDK 1.5 for your platform ( not sure which OS you are running ) if you don't already have one ).

  • Tiger/OS9.2 installation and Booting issues  among multiple HD's

    G4 PCI, (thats bootable in 9, must be booted in 9 to use an essential business app). It has 2 HD's: an 80 G ata for OS9 & apps, & OSX (from Jag - Tiger, w/minimal apps&files. I later added a SATA 320G driven by a SIIG, pci card. The 320G became the main Tiger,X Apps & files HD, the smaller one for OS9 only, & Tiger emergency boot. The 80G died, but I was able to clone everything on it to a 10G ATA, that was then installed in the G4 so I could run the business app.
    I also cloned the dying ATA HD to an empty 114G partition on the Large SATA HD. The idea was to transfer the os9 & Business app to a large partition bec it needed normal space. I couldn't get the G4 to boot in 9 from that partition, though it was a clone of the ATA HD??
    **1. The OSX "Startup Disk CP" in the Large SATA HD, sees both Tigers and Both 9's in both HD's. I can restart directly into the Small ATA HD's X or 9. It will not boot into its own 9, though the CP sees it, and allows me to choose it. Itwill auto restarts back in its X, after a blank grey screen while it trys to make sense of whatever it sees in the 9 partition. This 9 is a clone of the ATA HD's perfectly working 9.
    **2.When happilyrunnibg in the Small ATA's 9, its "Startup Disk CP" only sees its own X & 9, it doesn't see the SATA HD at all....To get back to the Large HD X, I must first reboot into the Small HD's X, then its Startup Disk CP sees the Large SATA's X & 9. I can then reboot into the Large X, but again not into the Large 9 (same deal as above).
    **3.I tried to clone the ATA Disk (working 9&X) to a new external USB HD's 100G partition. It took forever. The SATA CP saw both in the Ext HD,but wouldn't boot in either in either. The ATA saw both but wouldn't boot.Scarey, very nasty freeze/crash, that refused to find any ogood OS.I
    **Apple-C, with the 9 CD didn't work... grey dead screen, so I couldn't install a new 9 on the SATA, if it could be found?. I had to use the X disk CP to find a working OS. I Don't want to tell you how many hours of crash restarts with & without the Tiger Disk and repairs I went thru.
    ** How can I install 9 & its apps, to the large SATA partition?**Why didn't the cloned 9 work on the SATA?** Why does the ATA Startup Disk CP, not see the SATA?**Why do both HD's Startup CP see the EXT usb's 9 & X, allow you to choose them, when they are not bootable? Why are they not bootable? Help!Help!Help! Thanks so much. Totally exhausted! I know the easy answer is getting a new 80G ata and cloning the working 10G to that one, but why won't the SATA work???

    Maybe the drive is using a GUID partition table. Tiger can read and write GUID drives, but PPC Macs can't boot from them. Select the drive (all the way at the left, not the volume indented below it) in Disk Utility, and look at the bottom-right of the window for "Partition Map Scheme". You need "Apple Partition Map" for it to be bootable by a PPC Mac. This is selectable via the "Options" button in Disk Utility's "Partition" tab.
    Also, for OS 9 to boot, you have to chose the option to install OS 9 drivers when you initialize the drive.

  • EAS Startup issue after OEPM 11 Installation and Configuration

    Hi All,
    EAS server is not starting up after the successfull installation and configuration of OEPM 11.1.1.2
    Provider Services and Shared Services started fine and i was able to login to Shared Services console
    During eas startup individually from the startup script i see this catalina.out file with some errors..
    By this i understand that there is some problem in selecting the required JRE as i see both JRE and JRE-64 under the
    common folder. Anybody has come across this issue while startup of EAS 11.1.1.2
    Any help would be accepted...

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    1. I assume your system is 64 bit.
    2. I think you are installing the 64 bit application. In that case you would get both the folders i.e JRE and JRE-64.
    3. Seconldy, I would like to set the permissions of the folders to everyone and give full control and test again. ( to do this, right cick ->security ->add 'everyone' -> give him full control and test).

  • Failed Hardware Scan and other issues E440

    Hi all,
    This is probably more rant than anything, but I wanted to give a heads up to others too.
    I have a ThinkPad E440 that is a year old. From the very first time I turned it on, there have been issues. The first hardware scan (via Lenovo Solution Center - LSC) showed a warning for the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 Local Connection Test. There were also tons of System Events that always show up in the "Configuration History" part of the LSC. You can look at the calendar and tell exactly which days I used the computer because there will be System Events generated each day. Things like app crashes and failed drivers.
    In July 2014, I got the first warning for the 16 GB SSD - the SMART Short Self-Test. By February this year it showed as failed for each hardware scan (these were initially set up to run monthly).
    Also the whole time I've had it the touch screen would just stop working at some point and I would have to reboot to get it working again.
    I finally called Lenovo on March 30th, before my warranty expired. When I called that time, I didn't realize the hard drive failure was the SSD. So they sent me a new 500 GB drive. I also added the other things into the case when I talked to them. For the wireless issue they suggested making sure the driver was up to date. I did this and let them know when I called back that it was up to date and still having the warning. So I called them to tell them to tell them about the wireless and also that I realized it was the SSD having the failure, not the main drive. The first case had already been closed even though none of the other items were addressed.
    So they opened another case (this is #2). They said to mail them the laptop since the wireless issue would probably be on the board and it wasn't something I could fix myself. They sent a box with a prepaid overnight shipping label. I was very sick for a few days so I sent it back to them on April 10th (a Friday). Via UPS I saw it was delivered on Saturday. Work was performed on it Monday, April 13th and sent back to me that very day. I received it on April 14th. This part of the service has been excellent - very fast response.
    Being in IT, I included a letter with the laptop that outlined the issues that should have been in the case. I also printed the hardware scans and what the system events looked like.
    When I got the laptop back, the sheet inside said they had replaced the Speaker because of Distorted Sound. This was not even on the list even though I had noticed it. I didn't even power up the laptop before calling them again - yes, I was furious! Plus our power was out...
    So this was noon on the 14th. They opened case #3 and sent me ANOTHER BOX so I could send it back.
    After our power came back on the 15th, I powered up my laptop. I opened the browser (I have it set to restore the previous session) and there was a sexually explicit video on YouTube. I opened the other browser and there was a different video on YouTube. So this person was watching YouTube instead of fixing my laptop. I looked through both browser histories and there was quite a bit of activity while my laptop was at the repair center... I ran the hardware scan - still failed and a warning for the wireless. They really hadn't done anything.
    I also found two pictures of the repair person in the recycle bin...
    So I called back. I was LIVID! They opened another case (this is #4). And sent me ANOTHER BOX. I finally learned the other day that once a case is opened, it cannot be edited or added to at all. Instead, they close the other case and open a new one. I guess their turnaround time for closing cases is excellent! I've never seen a system like that - and I've used a lot of them.
    I got a really nice, patient fellow on the line. He took all my info (again). I emailed him the pictures, screen captures of the YouTube videos, the letter I had sent - everything. He entered as much into the new case as he could - he talked to one of the supervisors to make sure he did it right. Somehow he flagged it so that the laptop would get more attention (time) at the repair facility. He also opened a separate case (an escalation ticket?) for a supervisor to call me regarding the person's conduct at the repair facility. He said they would call me that day. (It's now the 25th and I've never heard from anyone)
    So, he sent me ANOTHER BOX. I've built up quite a stack of them.
    Our power was out AGAIN from the 17th through the 19th (don't get me started).
    I noticed a hardware scan had now gotten a failure on the main hard drive. So I called them on the 21st to add this to the case before sending the laptop back. The girl said they can't add anything to an existing case or edit it at all once it's opened. She would have to open a new case and SEND ME ANOTHER BOX. I told her to forget it because I was ready to send it in and didn't want to wait for another box. I also asked for a status on that "escalation case" where the supervisor was supposed to call me. In order to do this she, yes, wait for it, had to open ANOTHER CASE!! So they would know I wanted a status. I'm completely dumbfounded.
    So I sent it back on the 21st. This time I practically wiped it. I had already removed all my files the last time, but I had left my bookmarks and browser history intact.  I set up a guest logon with admin privileges. I updated my letter and printed off more stuff to include with the box. On one sheet I had only the case number, the serial number and machine type. On another sheet I had "DO NOT SEPARATE THIS PAPERWORK FROM THE LAPTOP" and the case number. I put this sheet on top (The guy on the 15th said my letter and stuff may have gotten separated from the laptop once it was delivered to the repair facility). I used a ton of staples so it would all stay together. I included in my letter the failure on the main hard drive and asked if they could look at it. I wrote about having to open a new case if I wanted to include it.
    They received it on the 22nd. A nice gentleman from the repair facility called me that day asking about the password. that. was. written. on the sheet they have you fill out. I told him what happened last time and also mentioned the hard drive failure and asked if he could look into it. He said they would.
    I received my laptop back yesterday morning.The sheet that came with it said they had "replaced the following parts to complete the repair of your laptop."
    Part Description                                           Symptom
    IMAGE                                                             Replaced due to engineering change
    System board                                                 Network card error
    Hard disk drive                                                Network card error
    ECA-WIRELESS                                            <no symptom listed>
    There was also a sheet saying they had installed a factory preload of software and I needed to install Lenovo and Windows updates.
    When I booted it up, the first thing I noticed, in the lower right corner was:
    Windows 8.1
    SecureBoot isn’t configured correctly
    Build 9600
    I ran a hardware scan. Well, I tried. It stopped part way through and said it finished successfully but most of the tasks showed up as cancelled. I tried to run it again - issues - rebooting ensued. It said the LSC wasn’t available and that I should try again or reboot.
    Tried several times. Then got what I guess is the new BSOD - kinder, gentler:
    Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart. We're just
    collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you. (xx% complete)
    If you'd like to know more, you can search online later for this error: DRIVER_CORRUPTED_EXPOOL
    Even though the LSC said my Lenovo files were all up to date, I ran the Update. And first I had to download a new version of Update. Then I downloaded all of the Lenovo updates and installed them (there were quite a few). The BIOS update failed. While I was doing the Lenovo downloads, I got a light blue screen but no text (I was out of the room so I'm not sure what happened). Did CTRL-ALT-DEL and it shows only IE and Task Manager as applications that are running. Could not “Switch to” IE. Hitting window key to go to start didn't do anything. So I had to restart.
    By 3pm yesterday there were 34 system events in the configuration history.
    I ran the hardware scan again after I updated the Lenovo files, and you guessed it! Failure on the SSD (SMART Short Self-Test) and warning on the wireless. Nothing had changed. Except hardware scan is acting different than it did before I sent in the laptop for repairs. When it finishes, it instantly closes and just shows 100% complete. When I click on "see last results" it shows a screen called
    Log Information,
    Canceled 04/24/2015 n:nn pm 
    You have not done a hardware test on your computer
    And the calendar in LSC only shows the very first hardware scan I did on Friday. Even the hardware scan screen shows the date and time of the last scan. It also shows the error code. In order to see exactly what is failing, I have to sit there and watch it very closely and snap a picture of the screen as soon as the error (or warning) shows up.
    When I would try to run Windows update, it would hang up PC Settings. I couldn't even kill it using task manager because it didn't show up as a task. During this, I got a flag saying the firewall wasn't turned on. I tried to turn it on, but clicking on Turn on Windows Firewall didn't do anything. I tried to setup my Microsoft account but that just hung too.
    I ended up running Windows Update FOUR TIMES to get all the updates installed. Every time I ran it, it said "Done!" and I would run it again and more would show up. The last time was this morning.
    At some point, the error about SecureBoot went away.
    Then, I created a bootable BIOS update disk. Following the ReadMe instructions, I went through ThinkPad Setup and verified several values. Of note:
    Secure Boot was DISABLED. According to the ReadMe file, this should be ENABLED in Windows 8.1. I enabled it.
    Under Startup/Boot, according to the ReadMe that came with the BIOS update, UEFI/Legacy Boot is supposed to be set at UEFI Only for Windows 8.1. Mine was set to "Both". I changed it.
    In Startup, OS Optimized Defaults was DISABLED, even though it says right there (and in the BIOS update ReadMe) it should be ENABLED to meet Microsoft Windows 8 Certification Requirement.
    After these updates, I flashed the new BIOS.
    Then, I ran hardware scan again...
    Now I have TWO failures on the SSD: Random Seek Test and SMART Short Self-Test. Great.
    In the Event Viewer (that I recently discovered), it says my disk has a bad block. It just says The device, \Device\Harddisk\DR1, has a bad block. I assume this is the SSD...
    There are 867 events in the event viewer - Critical, Error, and Warning...
    Fifty-two of these are from October 7, 2013 - before my little laptop was a glimmer.
    The rest are from when Lenovo had it and yesterday and today.
    64 of them are the disk error.
    341 are from DeviceSetupManager. 65 of those are from failed driver installs. 69 are for not being able to establish a connection to the windows update service. 64 are from not being able to establish a connection to the Windows Metadata and Internet Services (WMIS).
    3 times it's rebooted without cleanly shutting down
    60 of them are from Service Control Manager and say The TDKLIB service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified.
    One of them says {Registry Hive Recovered} Registry hive (file): '\??\C:\Users\Default\NTUSER.DAT' was corrupted and it has been recovered. Some data might have been lost.
    16 are warnings that various processors in Group 0 are being limited by system firmware.
    12 say the certificate for local system with thumbprint <bunch of hex numbers> is about to expire or already expired.
    108 are warnings for failure to load the driver \Driver\WUDFRd for various devices
    16 are application errors
    One is for the computer rebooting from a "bug check"
    15 are for name resolutions timing out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.
    10 are for SecureBoot being disabled.
    14 for services terminating unexpectedly
    15 are for WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped
    61 are for applications not being able to be restarted because the application SID does not match Conductor SID
    12 are for activation of CLSID timing out waiting for the service wuauserv to stop
    So, I'll call them on Monday and open. a. new. case (#5?) - but really 7. And get A NEW BOX.
    I'll keep you updated!

    Hi amycdero and welcome to the HP Forum,

  • Installation and performance wonderful!

    Just completed installation and testing of Aperture 3. 20K images, mostly RAW from Canon 40D and 5DM2 (11 to 23 MB RAW files), around 300GB.
    Ran Consistency Check and then Rebuild on Aperture 2 libraries before starting move to Aperture 3.
    Backed up Aperture 2 Libraries on several hard drives (belt and suspenders).
    Installed from Ap 3 disk.
    Did software updates re slideshows and new RAW update.
    Turned off Faces (can run this later).
    Did not reprocess files, just the update. I will reprocess as needed, when I want to use new tools on old files.
    Update on both Mac Pro (2006, 2.66GHZ, 7GB ram) and MacBook Pro (2008, 2.5 GHZ, 4 GB ram). No other application slowed down at all during update. Update took about two hours on each machine.
    Library and adjustments are very snappy.
    Printing went exceedingly well, after re-entering my presets.
    Image Browser shows Aperture library.
    Not a single problem so far. I've spent almost a week reading the posts here and I've seen all the problems some people have had.
    In my view, a very, very impressive new version.

    I know it really probably will not help but I submitted a bug report.
    "17-Feb-2010 12:16 PM Brian Hursey:
    Summary:
    Major issue with Aperture 3 when converting A2 library's and projects to A3.
    Steps to Reproduce:
    Senerio 1. Open an existing aperture library. It tells you you will need to convert the library conversion only gets to about 5%.
    Senerio 2. Importing and not converting an existing A2 library into a A3 library.
    Senerio 3. Reprocessing masters on a imported A2 project.
    Expected Results:
    Conversion, importing processing needs to keep from locking up the system and making it unusable.
    Actual Results:
    Uses all systems resources and creates a 43+ gig swap file. Used 100% of both cores of my 2.0 ghz 2009 mac mini, and used all of the ram.
    Regression:
    System: Spring 2009 Mac mini. 2.0 ghz core duo, 2 gigs of DDR3 ram, Snow Leopard 10.6.2 , Aperture 3.
    Notes:
    Possible work a rounds 32bit mode will test tonight. "

  • Parallel (same) background jobs:  Memory and locking issues

    <b>Scenerio:</b>  Multiple concurrent inbound asynchronous XI messages need to be processed in SAP.  We have the XI proxy initiating an RFC. This RFC exports internal tables (essentially the XI payload) to a unique shared memory ID (for each XI message). RFC then submits an abap (submit..and return)  in a background job. This abap reads (via IMPORT) the shared memory ID to get the data then process it.
    <b>Problem:</b>  : When multiple concurrent jobs/abap are running, often, but not always, one of the submitted abaps either gets a non-zero return code from the IMPORT, or the IMPORT from shared memory seems to work fine, but the table contents contains data from the other (parallel) run, even though the memory ID used is correct and unique.
    I have attempted to resolve this by using various methods (memory IDs, SPA/GPA parameter, ENQUEUE) of locking in the RFC (unlocking at end of abap), so that only one background job is executed at a time.  However, the best I can do is having two or three running in parallel.
    So I'm wondering how to solve this memory issue and/or how to make the abap processing synchronous?  Any help appreciated. Thanks.

    There is a limitation on Amt of data you can store in ABAP Memory and SAP Memory .. check those limitation ..per user ..
    also check for Number of external session granted by urr basis ppl...
    it may be possible that only 3-4 session are allowed coz each background process create and external session ..
