Files getting corrupted on server

Hi,
We have a problem where many files on a server appear to have become corrupted. I can see the timestamp has updated on the folder they are in at 9.12 this morning but there is no obvious update on the files other than they won't open.
Below is an example of an error message I get when trying to open an Excel file:
Excel cannot open the file 'David @ Readie Unsecured Work June 2013.xlsx' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not become corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file.
Excel files are not the only types affected. The same happens with many other types e.g pdf and dwg.
I heard somebody mention that it could possibly be related to third party backup applications that run on Windows servers but I can't find any information on this.
Other thoughts are could this be a SAN issue or a virus?
Cheers
Paul

We have been dealing with this exact problem since 1/15/14. In 30 years, I've never been as stumped as I am now.
The symptom seems to be a sort of "rolling" corruption of binary files through certain CAD-related folders, affecting binary files like .XLS, .DWG, .DOCX and .PDF. Other shares on the same server don't seem to be affected. The corruption seems to run alphabetically
through the subfolders starting at the top and sometimes stopping before the end.
We rebuilt the (virtual) server on different hardware, from scratch. But the corruption started showing up again today.
Nobody's seen any cryptolocker messages, and repeated a/v scans have turned up nothing thus far. But we're thinking maybe to flatten each workstation and reload it, though that's a horrific task.
My thinking today was possibly a corrupt offline file cache on a laptop pushing back crap into the server. I've put in a policy to disable offline files to test that. But after reading these posts I'm back to the virus as the most probable. But
if this is Cryptolocker, it must be a very new variant that isn't being picked up.
We are running CrashPlan as a data backup, but that runs only at night and the corruption seems to happen only during the day. We do media backups using Backup Exec 2012 SP3, but it's disabled for now.

PDF file gets corrupted when generated from BSP

Hi,
 I am generating a PDF file from a BSP page ( see the code below). The problem is that PDF file gets corrupted and I am unable to open it. I also tried to use other functions like GUI_Download and DOwnload as suggested by many and they also do not work either. Has any one generated a PDF from BSP and can some one help?

Adf-config.xml file gets corrupted

Hello,
I have observed in many instances that adf-config.xml file get corrupted in the sense it looses (wipes out) mds conenction string and as a result the projects won't compile or you will not be able to fecth anything from MDS like wsdls ect. Making this file as read only or backing it up seems to be the work around. I have seen this in 11.1.1.3.0 version.
But can you please suggest why this happens and any permanent solution to fix this?
Thanks
SathyaP

In your adf-config.xml the password property is not properly closed and your property name is incorrect.
Replace following:
<property name="password" value="p$ssword1"*with this in your adf-config.xml
<property name="jdbc-password" value="p$ssword1"/>

Why do music files get corrupted in iTunes?

Why do music files get corrupted in iTunes? All kinds of files;( mp3, mp4, aac, etc., either purchased from iTunes, Store, downloaded from online, or uploaded from an audio disc) SUDDENLY GET CORRUPTED AND STOP PLAYING! Even if I delete the file from my iTunes and then re-open it from the source, it appears to be corrupted. My system has been thoroughly scanned and does not have and never has hAd, a virus. Music files should not have a shelf life. They're just non-living pieces of information. So why should they suddenly go bad? It is unacceptable that over the past year I have had to delete many files from my iTunes library and find some other source for the same song. It has been an exhausting headache and an exasperating waste of my time.

this is not necessarily the case, I had an itunes library go bad on me. I noticed the corrupt files on my ipod, they were either skipping real bad or sounded like there was some crazy modulation filter applie. Anyways, i went to iTunes and the files were bad there, so I played them in WMP, also bad, so obviously it was a file issue, BUT, what was the source of the corruption.......also, this happened ONLY to mp3s, no other audio file.......so i had backups and copied the bad files from a dvd and played them in WMP, files were good, then i import them to iTunes, and the files are crap again, so I tried just adding to library, still bad. So the file was fine before, once iTunes touched it, the file went bad, I **** you not. So I uninstalled iTunes from my PC, downloaded the newest version and reinstalled, same problems, so i continued trying with a different version, and making sure all registry entries were cleared before installing etc. NOTHING, so in the end i had to start using Winamp and all those files have not since caused me problems. So NO, it does not have to be hard drive issues, assess your own situation and you should be able to figure out if it is your HDD. My problem seemed to be iTunes library corrupting my metadata. However, I could never get it to work. I am glad to say I have since abandoned my PC and bought a new iMac on which i once again happily running iTunes with all the same audio files as before

Basic tips to recover MDF file from corrupted SQL server

Hi users,
share the basic tips of MDF file recovery with good example and when the tool support with all over MS windows and MS SQL server.

Basic solution to recover MDF file from corruption is to run DBCC statements. It is a set of SQL statements -
1. Dbcc checkdb ('database_name') with no_infomsgs
You do not need to repair file if the above statement is executed without any errors. Before executing the repair operation, you need to set the database in single user mode by executing:
2. Alter database 'database_name' set SINGLE_USER
You can now start repairing process by using Repair_Rebuild model by executing:
3. Dbcc checkdb('database_name', REPAIR_REBUILD)
If this statement executes successfully, then execute 5.5 else execute:
4. Dbcc checkdb('database_name', REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS)
This statement may lead to data loss. If it is executed properly then execute 5.5 else execute:
5. 5.1 Alter database 'database_name' set EMERGENCY
5.2 Alter database 'database_name' set SINGLE_USER
5.3 Dbcc checkdb ('database_name', REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) with no_infomsgs, all_errormsgs
5.4 Alter database 'database_name' set ONLINE
5.5 Alter database 'database_name' set MULTI_USER

Wpdomain.db file gets corrupted every other day

Hello
Our secondary wpdomain.db database gets corrupted every other day. Right now we have up to five people connecting to it at one time using multiple instances of ConsoleOne. How many users can we have connect to it at one time?
Chris T.

Hi,
I guess I need to know what OS you are hosting the databases on. OES? Plain SLES? Sort of depends on what is serving up what and who is consuming it. But generally, you MUST disable opportunistic locking / client side caching on the CIFS connections used to access the domain databases. That is, no doubt, what is killing them.
Two approaches:
1. Fix the problem on the CIFS / SAMBA server side. Then client settings don't matter. Our domains are on pure SLES, not OES, and domains are shared via SAMBA. Clients incluse other SLES boxes, Windows clients, etc. So we nipped it in the bud by preventing it on the SAMBA server. If the server is using plain old SAMBA, the corresponding share section in /etc/samba/smb.conf should be set up similar to
Code:
[grpwise]
comment = Transfer
inherit acls = Yes
path = /grpwise
read only = No
oplocks = False
level2oplocks = False
You can configure some of these setting globally, but I like to specify them explicitly - then you know what is actually going to happen. And you don't mess with other shares exposed by the server where client side caching / op locks "might" be OK.
2. You can also solve the problem on the CIFS client side ( in your case, the remote servers mounting the CIFS share ) by disabling oplocks:
cat /proc/fs/cifs/OplockEnabled
It will report "1" meaning its IS enabled. That's bad! You can disable Op Locks easily:
echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/OplockEnabled
Generally, under high load, the CIFS client will fall apart with this enabled. The number of pending locks piles up and all the client does is service the locks. We have web server fronting a common CIFS share, you NEED to do the above to the systems mounting CIFS shares.
Doing either or both ( on all systems hosting / consuming the shares ). I don't trust people to set up their clients correctly, so I opted for #1. The next day the problems stopped, order was restored to the Universe.
( This is analogous to, on Windows clients talking to Netware, File Commit = ON, File Caching = OFF, Level 2 OpLocks = OFF, etc. )

Cant do a file get from external server using file sender adapter with ftp

Hi all,
Up until now our company has only used the file sender adapter with ftp protocol to get a file from our XI server for processing and input the file into an integration process
I have a requirement to do an ftp file get from an external server
From our XI development server I can ftp directly to the external server and view the required directory using the command window via a DOS prompt (FTP open ...). So all firewall issues and communications are fine
Unfortunately I cannot currently pull files from the external server using the XI file adapter with ftp protocol from the XI development server AWB017
FTP Connection Parameters: External server name using port 21, Data Connection is Passive, No security, I supply a userid and password
Processing Parameters: Processing Mode is Archive (I tried test but this did not work either)
No messages appear in the RWB
Is there something else that I need to set up in order for the external ftp get to work via the XI file adapter?
Regards,
Mike

Thanks for your responses.
I have found the error messages in the File Adapter Monitor
Scenario 1
When I prefix the source directory with a forward slash, eg /Folder/Subfolder the error message is as follows
EST: Error: Error connecting to ftp server 'ip address': FTPEx: /Folder/Subfolder: The system cannot find the path specified
Scenario 2
When I DO NOT prefix the source directory with a forward slash, eg Folder/Subfolder a different error message is returned
Error: Retrieving file 'FILENAME.XML' failed unexpectedly: FTPEx: Folder/Subfolder: The system cannot find the path specified
At least in this scenario the adapter has been able to identify the file on the external FTP site but cannot retrieve it
Questions
I thought that the backslash prefix for the source directory was mandatory but I am receiving an error in each scenario
I receive the same error message whether the Processing Mode is 'Archive' or 'Test'
The logs on the external ftp server seem to indicate that I am simply connecting, sending username and password then quiting straight away. I am not issuing any commands that they can see
I thought that being a Sender adapter it would inherently execute a Pull or Get command
To recap, from our XI development server I can ftp directly to the external server and view the required directory using the command window via a DOS prompt (FTP open ...). So all firewall issues, communications, userid and password are fine
Has anyone experienced these issues?
Please advise on next course of action?
Regards,
Mike

Excel files getting corrupted when editing locally

We are getting corrupted files when using "edit locally". Editing seems to work fine, but when the next user tries to open the file it is corrupted. This error only occurs intermittently. When checking the logs I found below error message:

TSM:
Thanks for the reply. I'd be "LOST" without you!
Anyway, the camera only came with a Windows disk. Per the manufacturer, it doesn't need mac drivers, and the windows drivers are only for the web cam function (which i don't use.)
The camera is formatted under FAT32 (Windows) format. I couldn't run permissions repair. I did do a repair disk under disk utility. Still having the issues.
I tried iMovie. I can import the avi file from the camera, and it works!!!!
So it would appear that there's a bad codec in QT/Perian/VLC?

Layered PSD files getting corrupted when applying a gaussian blur.

A file is created then three layers to keep simple a red square is created using the marquee tool then filled with a colour this is repeated on the next layer with a different colour then the third layer is completely filled with another colour.
The first two layers are selected and scaled then made transparent.
Finally the layer in between layer 3 and layer 1 is selected and a gaussian blur is applied this is when the corruption occurs

After file is corrupted Photoshop has to be closed and re-opened because subsequent files that are opened are corrupted.
This has been reported in CS5 and CS5.5 extensively but not so much in CS6.

Below is the steps that where used to create the corruption in the files.
Gausian Blur corruption in Photoshop
Step 1. Create document with 3 layers + Background.
Step 2. Layer 3 - Create a box (Red)
Step 3. Layer 2 - Create a box (Blue)
Step 4. Layer 1 – Fill layer (Yellow)
Step 5. Select layer 3 & 2 & scale down & press
return
Step 6. Change opacity of layer 1 & 2 to 25%
Step 7. Go to layer 2 and select Gaussian Blur filter
Please Note that the blue & Red Box Have changed
colour.
As I Zoom in and out the corruption gets worse.
Sometimes this corruption dose’nt show up until you have
saved & reopened the file.

It happened already twice. I am working in one of my layers, I am changing the levels , the image in that layer gets black. I cant undo or go back in history. In the history pallette the original picture at the top goes black. If I try to save, all the layers get corrupted, with missing arbitrary squares in all of them. The first time it happens the missing areas where white, the second time they change to black. The top picture in the history pallette maches the black or white color.
The small picture in the icon in my desktop looks normal , but when open is tottally corrupted. If I have other files open, all of them get corrupted also if I tried to save.

More trouble
Now the wire behavior is happening in my layers selection, they are grey when selected instead of blue, so I can't work at all!
Thank you so much for follow my postings!! I am going crazy because my work depends on Photoshop!
Here is my system info, I have tried everything!, this latest trouble are not affected by turning on and of the GL.
Can Adobe send you a virus? I used to have Abobe suit installed, from a previous Co I work for, but they didn't upgrade the license , I was not using the software but it was still installed in my HD. (I recieved a couple of messages from Adobe to let me know that the license was expired) but I didn't paid attention to it because I didn't used. I was using my license CS5 version.
I already uninstall that. The only other thing I did before all this started was buying Mac Keeper.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for all your help.

Pref files getting corrupted

In the past two weeks I have had computer problems than I have had in years and end up with the solution of removing a bad prefs file.
I have had user prefs, system prefs desktop pictures pref file and several app prefs getting corrupted.
Now I go right to pulling prefs and/or using Onyx to fix the problems.
Anyone else having such a rash of files being corrupted?

Hi Derryl s;
It has been my experience that when files start getting corrupted then the disk drive is generally on it's way out. I would check you disk drive to see if it is having problems.

Files get corrupted after import-export

Hi
After exporting images from HTML DB 2.0 and importing them some of the files are corrupted after import.
This has happened with one .js file and with one .pdf file.
All the other (including some PDF-s) are correct.
The "File Character Set" specified on import is correct and there are no other parameters I can change.
If I look the contents of corrupted files it seems that another file has been pasted at the end of the original file.
What could be wrong?

Hello,
Any news on this ? I have the same (reproducable) problem with a .js file.
Uploading works fine, but when I try to download it again, the contents of another file seems to have been appended at the end. The file also doesn't work when I try to include it using #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#...js

Dear Apple Corps;
I have an issue with your software on my PC and iPad, iPod, and shuffle! Everytime I download and update or try to reinstall files after having my computer "scrubbed" they either won't open, can't be found or work poorly. WHY???? I have been through alot of this over the last 3 years, and I am tired of files safely and securely transferred becoming corrupted or unusable or just plain deleted. Please come back with and answer. I also have invested heavy into iTunes files downloaded from the iTunes store, so how can I safely store a remote copy(s), to reload onto my cleaned hard drive or to a new device Apple or PC????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
Tired of wasted time manually loading files I should be able to use off a stored copy.

Some strange glitch has erased every single unlocked & unprotected file on my C: drive. It wasn't a virus because I checked autorun records and running processes using the respective Sysinternals utilities and didn't find anything suspicious.
I restored all data except for some system files and files that had "too long" of a path using shadow copies, which luckily for me were just a few hours old. Then, I decided to reboot into Recovery Environment and run System Restore from there. For even
more strange reason, the available restore points in RE were dated November 2010 (it's May 2012 right now) and the recent save dates are nowhere to be found.
To make matters worse, SFC doesn't work and Safe Mode shows BSOD after loading CLASSPNP.SYS.
Error messages so far:
RE's startup repair tool: System files integrity check and repair error code 0x2
SFC: Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation
BSOD: 0x7B (0xFFFFF880009A9928, 0XFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0, 0x0), but the HDD is perfectly fine - it's a dual-boot machine
CBS.log: Failed to get CSI store. [HRESULT = 0x80073712 - ERROR_SXS_COMPONENT_STORE_CORRUPT]
What I need is a way to perform either an in-place upgrade without booting into Windows, or a way to fix the SXS Component Store, or rebuild the Safe Mode so that I could initiate upgrade install from there. A clean install isn't an option because I don't
have the luxury of time to run through the reboot cycles when re-installing and updating other software (I'm using Windows 8 CP for now as my work tools are mostly in the cloud).
It is not possible to do a repair install of a system unless you can boot to the system.
Have you checked the hard drive for problems? - download the manufacturer's test utility, create the disk, and run the extended checks.
