Could you see if you can access the following two URLs on your system? The expected behavior is 404/not-found, but you are somehow trying to install based on metadata from the previous release, which was found in these two files.

Unable to create GlassFish server on Luna

Hi all,
I'm experiencing the same problem than here https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/821156/, but according to the comments that was already fixed.
This is what I'm trying:
Install the Glassfish Tools from the Marketplace
In the Servers view, right click > New > Server > GlassFish 4 > Next
The page called "Define GlassFish runtime properties" is empty except for the words "Internal error" (see attached image).
Is the "GlassFish Tools for Luna" entry on Eclipse Marketplace working? or is there any other way to install the GlassFish tools?
Thanks!

When you use "GlassFish Tools for Luna" entry on Eclipse Marketplace, you should see two features displayed. Did you install both of them? If you don't install "Oracle Java EE Tools", you will hit the error that you are describing.

GlassFish Tools - Eclipse console does not show server log output

Hi,
I just installed the latest Glassfish Tools (6.2.1.201308190137) on Eclipse Kepler and Glassfish Server 3.1.2. But when I start the server and open the console ('view log file' button) there is no output displayed (also not during deployment). When I open the server.log file in a text editor I can clearly see the log output. Re-starting Eclipse, re-opening the console view didn't help. I have this bug both on Windows 8 and OSX 10.8.4.
Is there something obvious that I am missing? In my previous pre-kepler Eclipse installation this works like a charm (using the same glassfish server). Also the path to the log file displayed on the top of the console view is correct.
This might be related to the following thread:
GlassFish > View Log File opens in editor instead of console
Will have to use my old eclipse installation until this is resolved. Any help is appreciated.
-- Mike

Apparently, the GlassFish Tools for eclipse is expecting the log messages in 'ODLLogFormatter' format only, and will refuse to show any logs messages that don't adhere to this format.
I've tried configuring my logback messages to match this format, and that works until an exception is thrown and a log message is entered somewhere using the 'UniformLogFormatter' format, which then causes the server.log parser to refuse to show any more messages.
This is a bug, but I'm unsure where to report bugs now since the move to OEPE. (Was https://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISHPLUGINS)

Replacement for LUN masking

Hello,
I currently have an Xserve RAID with 14x400GB drives running firmware 1.5/1.50f. Each side is a RAID5 array split into two LUNs (total four LUNs). I have a Qlogic SANbox 1400 fibre channel switch, and each LUN is attached to four computers (1 Leopard, 1 Ubuntu, 2 Windows). I use LUN masking to make sure each computer can only mount the appropriate LUN.
Anyways, I'm considering upgrading to firmware 1.5.1 for 750GB drive support, but I understand the RAID Admin tool no longer supports LUN masking (though the firmware on the XRAID seems to).
My question is, how do I use Zoning on the Qlogic switch as a replacement for LUN masking? I often see Zoning mentioned as a substitute for LUN masking, but I can't figure out how to zone down to the LUN level. I can create a zone that include the WWPNs of the HBA and the Xraid controller, but not down to the LUN level. The result is that the computers have access to LUNs they shouldn't.
What am I missing? Is the Qlogic 1400 incapable of this?
Thanks!

I have sliced the LUNs.
I've come across a small number of other posts suggesting the same thing - upgrade the firmware to 1.5.1 and use the old 1.5 tool for LUN masking administration. I'm OK with this if it does indeed work, I just don't want to experiment with production storage

Problem creating a new Glassfish 4 server with Oracle Tools for Kepler

Hello,
I installed Oracle Tools for Kepler with no problem. But when I want to create a new server and fill in the directory to the server (which is valid, C:/glassfish4/glassfish), nothing happens. I can only click 'back' or 'cancel'.
There is no error message.
Is this a bug in Eclipse or Oracle Tools, or do I do something wrong ?
Thanks in advance for help.

Hi,
Could you let us know where you installed the GlassFish tools plugins from ?
Glassfish 4 support in OEPE has been available since Glassfish was released in June. But it looks like a bug may have been introduced in the latest build available on http://download.java.net/glassfish/ which does not exist in the version available at http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/12.1.2.1/kepler/repository
The workaround on the version you are running is to enter a dummy password value and this should allow you to create the Glassfish 4 server.
I will be filing a bug to track this issue
thanks

Problems starting GlassFish via GlassFish Tools

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing problems in starting a GlassFish Server (Open Source Edition 4.1 (build 13)) via GlassFish Tools in Eclipse Luna on my MacBook (OS X Yosemite) as described in these postings. The server is stuck at 69 % on starting up until a TimeoutException appears.
The problem can be solved though by going back to an older version of GlassFish tools (it seems 7.3.2.20141114 is the last version which is working for me).
On my Windows PC no such problems occur, even when running GlassFish tools in the latest version.
Is anyone experiencing similar issues and might provide a hint to fix this?
I really appreciate any help in this matter .
Thanks,
Erun

Hi Erun
I have exactly the same configuration and exactly same problem. Do you still remember how did you solve this problem?
kind regards

SQL Data Tools for Visual Studio which are no use at all. I have also installed the microsoft report viewer 2012 runtime and acquired version 11 report viewer. I can get the report viewer on my form in designer, however the "Design new report" doesnt
do a damn thing. I am also missing the "Templates" tab when trying to add a new item, as well as all reporting items, therefore I cant create an rdlc file. I just want to know why these things arent in my visual studio, and how to get them in asap.
Below is the image of the add new item dialog, with the absence of the reporting items. (Which I cant post yet because I am not verified).
My options look like this
<Installed>
   <Visual C# Items>
      <Code>
      <Data>
      <General>
      <Windows Forms>
      <WPF>
<Online>
Having worked with these before and it being simple I assumed it would be this time but I've spent the best part of 6 hours installing things to no avail.
Any help is much appreciated as I am very close to a deadline.

hi tony,

yes, something like that.
APEX already is a reporting tool. To get a free print engine, there is FOP (do NOT know if it runs under glassfish), JasperReports (again, No idea if it runs under glassfish)..
thanks. i will check on this. i did find a thread were someone said they got it working with jasperreports but there wasn't much info on it. i'll keep searching for more info.
The company will atleast be using a paid for version of database, right? If so, then they have rights to the OHS... (Oracle's Application Server)..
this company is an outsourcing company that outsources oracle developers. they have a licensed oracle database 10 enterprise edition but i think it's a development license. if it's ok to use that then the better. otherwise it will be oracle xe for now.
initially i will propose the use of all these free open source tools. and inform them that being free means limitations. then if they demand something more, then that's the time i will inform them about alternatives like bi publisher. eventually they'll need to upgrade to at least standard edition of the database if data volume grows.
Get your mind out of the gutter! Grab mine while you're there, please.
hope is good. who knows, maybe someone out there may have already found a good tool or may be someone is building one. or maybe oracle will get a big heart and maybe create a lite version of bi publisher for free of use or they can add a lite version of bi publisher for the oracle database 11g xe edition. ( probably asking too much from oracle =)

Reporting Tools for Hyper-V 2008 R2

Are there any documenting or reporting tools for Hyper-V 2008 R2? I just need to get a list of all VM guest running and their associated VHD files along with where those VHD's are stored.
Thanks!

Sam,
Thanks, we are at the start of an upgrade from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2. Just needed an easier way to pull information about the current environment like what location each VHD for each VM is located and if there are any snap shots saved, etc.
Just planning ahead to help make the migration easier. The current environment is a mixture of CSV's and direct LUN's. So it should be interesting when we start our migration planning.
Noticed you are from the King of Prussia area? Just spent a few weeks over at the Hilton Garden Inn at Valley Forge.

Are there any recovery tools for optical media?

I've had a couple of DVD's turned in to coasters recently and I was hoping that Linux could come to my rescue with some awesome 'raw-read' / recovery tools for optical media?
I burnt the discs in Windows 7 using InfraRecorder on a brand new Plextor drive (a 'PX-891SA') and these are my first attempts to burn discs with it so I'm a bit worried it could be a hardware fault!
I started off trying to back up some files to clear some space on my hard-drive, burning them to a dual-layer dvd, but the software kept failing to even start the burn process -- that was until I realised that I needed to run the program "as Administrator" (in Windows). It did then manage to burn the disc (I was using "Session-at-Once" mode) however when it came to the end of the burn process / the start of the 'verify data' phase it threw an error saying the write process had failed! Windows couldn't access the disc / data and (I think) still thought the disk was empty. So I restarted the burning application and used a function to just 'close' the whole disc. This seemed to work because Windows was then able to recognise the disc and read the data, although accessing the disc was slow and sounded 'stutter' ish.
I then tried to write a single layer dvd to finish off the last couple of gig I had to back up, but again the software completed the burn phase only to report a 'fail' error right at the end (I'm assuming) before finalising the disc. Although this time I'd tried to create a multi-session disc by using the '2XXA' (or something) 'Multi-Session' iso9660 format. The result was that Windows couldn't read the disc and still thought it was empty, even after trying a forced 'close disc' operation! -- Linux however could read the disc and see that the data had in fact been burnt to the disc (although I've not yet tried copying it in Linux!).
Finally I needed to burn a load of archives to a couple of discs (totaling ~9GiB) -- starting with a dual-layer dvd first everything seemed to be working fine, the burn process started okay and the write buffer was full etc., until at what I assume was the layer change-over it all came to a grinding halt and threw another 'write operation failed' error, only this time I can't even mount the disk in Linux....see 'dmesg | tail' output below:
[ 5758.353005] ISO 9660 Extensions: Microsoft Joliet Level 3
[ 5758.353015] ISOFS: Interleaved files not (yet) supported.

[ 5758.353037] isofs_fill_super: root inode is not a directory. Corrupted media?
Does anyone have any thought or suggestions that might help?
- Is it likely to be a hardware fault? (I bought a Plextor because I thought they were one of the best!)
Maybe even if I could just close the session all would not be lost?
-- Thanks in advance --

@chris_l -- yeah I was worried that might be the case, still I'm not sure if that explains why it keeps failing the burn process part way through?
I've tried this and that in Linux but without much luck. I'm still quite a noob with a lot of Linux things and this is the first time I'm trying anything to do with optical disks/drives etc. so I'm learning as I go...
The disk that failed in Windows but was 'readable' in Linux did just pass a run through ddrescue -- i.e. it created an output file okay and did not report any errors in the process.
However when I mounted the resulting image and tried to copy the files across the first folder reported an "input/ouput error" (just using gui copy+paste in Thunar file manager)
...the other folders did copy okay though!
It seems as though it's the lead-in / lead-out and disc finalizing process that are the main fail points with the burn operation. I don't know if InfraRecorder is any good or likely to be the problem? Anyway the drive cam with Nero (inc. Linux version) so might give either or both of these a go too, if they don't work either then at least I wont be short of something to rest a mug o' tea on
@ chris_l (again) -- the Plextor drives do have a "Vari-Rec" feature which allows a user to 'tweak' the laser power / output level so I might try this too.
@alphaniner -- thanks I've not seen this package before, I'm guessing it's a bit like cdparanoia but for dvds?!
Thanks for the help!
(pre-post) UPDATE >>> I've just mounted my Windows partition in Linux so I'll have a crack at burning the files using cdrtools before I resort to throwing the dvd drive out of the window and chasing it around the yard with a lump hammer

Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer? How do I get my data back -- off the iCloud?

Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer? ---- Apple care suggested using iCloud for a backup to my documents. I do not have an iphone, ipad or laptop. Just an iMac. Nothing to share the data with.
Now I am unable to access some of my documents on my computer and saving documents is cumbersome because it always wants to save it in iCloud, not my computer. The documents I am unable to open are my old MS-Word. One is a macro enabled word doc. I am using os x mountain lion.
After over an hour chat with apple care, the issue is not resolved. I did not have more time to resolve the issue today and it will be continued next week. Per apple care, I do not have any documents in the iCloud however I am almost at the free capacity with contacts and documents.
My question is -- If I purchase backup from a clould provider - other than apple, back up my files in documents in their cloud (make sure I can open them) and then delete the link to iCloud. Would I preserve my data? Has anyone tried this? I am open to suggestions.
Thanks,
Phyllis

Is the iCloud a backup tool for your computer? ---- Apple care suggested using iCloud for a backup to my documents.
Not really. You can store "Documents in the Cloud" but this applies only to documents created by Pages, Numbers, Preview, Keynote, and Microsoft Office documents created on your computer stored in iCloud's "iWork". Within that limited purpose, iCloud works very well.
My question is -- If I purchase backup from a clould provider - other than apple, back up my files in documents in their cloud (make sure I can open them) and then delete the link to iCloud. Would I preserve my data?
I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean by "purchase backup from a cloud provider" but if you're considering a service such as Carbonite, I don't advocate any of them. To back up your Mac, use your own backup device - Time Capsule or an external hard disk. It's inexpensive and reliable: two elements essential for a backup strategy, that no subscription service can offer.

Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 10 Technical Preview

Hi, I've never developed a plugin for Office before. I've downloaded the technical preview of Windows 10 and have it running via Boot Camp on my MacBook (Looks good! I'll buy it when it comes out). Obviously with this being in beta it's understandable that
there are problems, so this is just a heads up on one particular problem. Maybe there's already a solution or workaround?
I've downloaded Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition, brought a copy of Microsoft Office Home And Student 2013 and am currently in the process of installing Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013.
The only problem though is that when I try to install it I get the following message:
http://s22.postimg.org/dxh1gtra9/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools.png
Here is the log:
http://pastebin.com/7wWkSfjF
I also tried to download the file directly and run that.
http://s3.postimg.org/tj9vb660j/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools2.png
I right clicked on the file and noticed an options called "Troubleshoot Compatibility". There was a wizard, and I ran through the wizard a number of times through different routes but none of them worked. I was unable to find the option which turned
off compatibility mode. I then searched for answers online which told me to do some things in the regedit program but that didn't seem to solve the problem.
Anyway, I understand that this is a beta version of Windows 10 and that there are going to be problems but thought it would be best to let you know. Perhaps I should just bite the bullet and buy Windows 8.
Many thanks,
Lawrence

It sounds like you are talking about the cloning tool?
Tool looks like this:
Then when selected you can change the size of the brush and using Alt (windows) and Command (Mac) to select your region you want to copy then start to create you cloned image.
Hope this helps?
