Font specified in font.properties not found

Font specified in font.properties not found [--symbol-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific]
This message gets printed around 3 dozen times on the screen every time I start a Swing app with JDK 1.3 on SuSE Linux 7.3.
With J2SDK 1.4 this does not happen and the main font being used in the app is different.
How do I solve this bug in JDK 1.3?

How did you solve this? Could you please share your secret. I am facing the same problem on Solaris and would love to find a solution.

"Font.properties not found" error when runInstaller in Suse 7.3 + 9iDB_R2

when I try to install 9iDB_R2 in Suse 7.3, the runInstaller have this error:
" Font specified in font.properties not found [--Symbol -medium -r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific] "
the [Next] button in the installer does not response, but the [Deinstall Products] and [About Oracle Universal Installer] has response and display what normally does.
I installed almost everything except games and multimedia when installing Suse 7.3
What is the possible reason?

I am not sure that I can help you much, but it sounds like a Java install error. The installer uses the JVM to do the install. Do you have any other Java virtual machines loaded on the machine.
If you do a java -version
what shows up? I kinda hope that nothing shows up or at worst case is is jdk.1.3.1
This may be what is causing the problem. Also I believe that there was suppose to be system variables set in the shell you are installing from. Are those set? It has been a while since I installed 9i on RedHat.

Font.properties not found

Hi,

JAXB 1.0 Final: jaxb.properties not found when using custom classloader

JDK 1.3.1 is being used.
The scenario:
1) jaxb jar files, jaxb generated files and application files loaded in default class loader works, however
2) jaxb jar files, jaxb generated files and application files loaded in a custom class loader generate the following exception:
javax.xml.bind.JAXBException: Unable to locate jaxb.properties for package XXX
To demonstrate here are two sample applications: a Launcher app whose job it is to start apps and a sample App1 application who needs JAXB.
If launch is placed into a jar file named launch.jar and App1 is placed into a jar file named app1.jar (with a JAXB generated package), and both jar files are placed in a directory containing all the JAXB 1.0 jar files (dom, sax, namespace, etc) and the system is started with the following:
jre\bin\java -cp launch.jar; testLaunch.launch
the exception occurs.
By way of comparison, if App1 is started directly with the following:
jre\bin\java -cp app1.jar;jax-qname.jar;jaxb-xjc.jar;jaxb-ri.jar;jaxb-libs.jar;jaxb-api.jar;dom.jar;sax.jar;jaxp-api.jar;xercesImpl.jar;namespace.jar;ant.jar;xalan.jar testApp.app1
the exception does not occur.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm doing something very similar. In fact my launcher is also stored in launcher.jar. It will start any application on the classpath and load dependencies jars located in the specified directory.
The first thing you must do is specify the classloader when constructing the jaxb context:
JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(xmlPackage, getClass().getClassLoader());
After this I was still raning into the "jaxb.properties not found" exception in some situations. Basically if the class using the jaxb files is located in the same jar as jaxb.properties everything worked fine. However if the class using the jaxb objects was located in a different jar it did not work.
I had to add the following early in the execution of the application that load the plugins to get things working correctly:
Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(jarDirClassLoader);
As far as I can tell JAXB using the Context class loader to find the jaxb.properties file.
I'm using JAXB 1.1
I hope this helps!

Error:"The specified tag name was not found"

Hello:
My problem is the FieldPoint error message in LabWindows/CVI v6.0.
When hook up with Ethernet module(FP-1600), NO Problem on the source code, specially item Name "All". See the actual code.
if(status = FP_CreateTagIOPoint (ServerHandle, resourceName, deviceName, "All",&IOPointHandle))
But When hook up with RS-232C Module(FP-1000), occured error. The error code is 32812, that means "The Specified tag name was not found."
What makes this error? Why item name "All" makes the error when using FP-1000?
Please help me.
Thank You.

Make sure the resourceName and deviceName match what is in FieldPoint Explorer. See the following KB:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/02EB73D02715981A8625682B00774F8F?OpenDocument
Also, I have seen this error when targetting serial modules with FieldPoint Explorer open. Make sure FP Explorer is closed.

Add those properties files?
That is the library using I18n, which looks for a version of the resource requested for the current language in the current country, first, then for the resource using the the current language, only, then using no extension. It's nothing to worry about unless you want to support that language with something other than the "default" entries.

Are there any changes required for this.

As the error indicates, your servlet does not support GET method calls. Override doGet() method to do what you are doing in doPost to avoid this error. If you want your servlet to serve GET as well as POST methods, override service method instead.

WSRPService_Config.properties not found

Hello Expoerts!
I'm relatively a newbie with Oracle Portal. I have been trying to deploying JSR168 based portlets from documentum. I was trying to use Standalone OC4J container configured with WSRP. Per my undertstanding, only way Oracle Portal allows deploying such portlets is to deploy them using WSRP. Is this the only way? Or can I deploy those portlets as it is?
Assuming I need to access those portlets through WSRP, I started using Oracle JDeveloper and successfully deployed those portlets onto Standalone OC4J. I was able to access the WSDL page and it appears fine. However, when I used to this WSDL URL to create a producer within JDeveloper, some errors were thrown in the application.log. The error is as below. I tried googling it but couldn't find any fix for this issue. Could some shed some light on why this error pops up?
Appreciate your help and time.
Thanks,
Pavan

They have to be made available to Java. Running from the commandline, add them to your classpath, preferably on the java command:
java -classpath <your list of required directories and jars> yourClassOrJar
In an IDE, you must accomplish the same thing using the facilities that are specific to the IDE that you are using. Refer to the IDE's Help pages or the IDE's website for the way that you add libraries to an IDE project, as each is different.

Firefox 3.6.9 / Windows 7 will not print using font specified with @font-face - any workarounds?

I've seen a few mentions of this problem around the interwebs, but can't find a resolution. I used [http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator fontsquirrel's font-face generator] to prepare different versions of a font for cross-browser display. Screen presentation in almost all browsers is fine, and almost all browsers print the embedded font as well - except for Firefox/PC (3.6.9/Windows 7).
I have tried inline styles, styles inside of the head, and external stylesheets, all with and without media type print. What can I do?

Hi John,
Can u try the work around mentioned in the below link

Raise an alert after a specified time, if file not found in source folder

Hi all,
For a requirement, I need to poll a folder at a specified time say 10.00-10:15 AM and check for a file.
If the file is not placed in the source folder within this duration. I need to raise a alert.
How do we handle requirement. Pointers/suggestions to achieve the same would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Younus

Hi Abhishek & Swarup,
Thanks for your response. The timeout option will work if the Transport Protocol is FTP. But take a case where it is NFS.
Then how will be monitor the source location for a certain period and then raise an alert.
Please drop in your comments.
regards,
Younus

Fonts not found when using Xvfb

Hi all,
I keep encountering "fonts specified in fonts.properties not found" whenever I execute rwserver.sh server=XXX.
fyi, I'm running Solaris8 on Sun SPACE machine. I use Xvfb downloaded from Oracle to allow report server to run after I logoff from the session. I realised that the report sever I created manually will die prematurely if I log out from the session when I use the "default" Xserver provided by Solaris.
And prior to running rwserver.sh I set the DISPLAY such DISPLAY=:1.0; export DISPLAY.
pls advise.

I get the same errors on my Solaris system with xvfb, but it doesn't keep anything from working. My reports server comes up and works fine.
