Have you tried posting your problem on the Codeplex page for the project? I
know the developer and I'm pretty sure that he doesn't participate here.

GOOGLE APPS PROVISIONING TASKS FAILS.

Hi all,
We are using custom connector for googleapps.While am provsioning to googleapps some of the tasks are getting rejected like "create user" task. Also while trying to update first name ,lastname ,"firstname updated","lastname updated" tasks are being rejected. This is not always happening ,only sometimes it is getting rejected.when am trying to RETRY the task then it is being completed successfully.What i found in the resource history is :
Error Details
Setting task status... "com/google/gdata/data/appsforyourdomain/provisioning/UserEntry" does not correspond to a known Response Code. Using "UNKNOWN".
I am unable to trace the logs as it is not even triggering the java code in the adaptor.Is it like it is unable to find the dependent jars like appsforyourdomainclient jar,g-data-appsforyourdomain etc jars which are placed in domain home lib folder.for ex:/orasw/oracle/middleware/user_projects/domains/base_domain/lib location. If needed,i can provide the code also.
We are in UAT AND THIS IS A SHOW STOPPER FOR US TO GO TO PRODUCTION. SO PLEASE HELPME OUT.
How can i resolve this?
THANKS

Is there anything more complete?
as much as I love his (Ray Camden's) work, this cfc was last updated in 2008 and is "read only" on the google contacts api...
I need to find something that create contact groups and modify existing groups... Read Only isn't going to cut it for my purposes..
Thanks for the quick response though, it brought me to one that I hadn't found yet (even if it was incomplete, it was one I hadn't seen before)

Google Apps Provisioning (and contacts) api

Has anyone written a .cfc to simplify the task of interacting with the Google Apps Provisioning API?
We are looking to transition over to Google Apps for our student email, and I see that libraries have been written for python, php, java, and .net but I have yet to come across a suitable interface in ColdFusion. I'd really rather not have to port that wheel from .net to CF.

Google Apps Provisioning with oim error

Hi All,
While I was doing the provisioning of Google apps by creating new user in oim I got this error:
" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/gdata/client/appsforyourdomain/UserService "
but have I copied the 4 jars into the ThirdParty dir.
1.gdata-appsforyourdomain-1.0.jar
2.gdata-core-1.0.jar
3.gdata-client-1.0.jar
4.google-collect-1.0-rc1.jar.
Please suggest any solution regarding this error.
-Ashish

set in class path then try once, it will work.
I think it is an OIM Bug. I did the below mentioned steps to resolve the issue:
1.Remove all the jars (from database third party as well using “DeleteJar.sh”)
2.Add all the four jars into the classpath and with the same window start Managed Server.

How do you complete or re-attempt failed provisioning tasks

Hi All,
If a modify operation has been perfomed, and subsequent provisioning tasks failed, is there a way to get IdM to go back and attempt to complete the failed task and remaining tasks.
For example, when the MX_VALIDTO attribute changes we call an event task to determine if MX_DISABLED should be set or not. This task is a generic pass which executes some logic which evaluates other attributes. This step failed because we caused an error to be raised due to an unexpected value in one of those other attributes.
We have now modified the logic in the script and want to 're-provision' the failed task without triggering a new change on the identity.
I know about the uRetryPrivilegeAdd and uRetryPrivilegeRemove internal functions, but it seems as if these only deal with cases where privilege assignment had failed. Is there something similar that will reconcile and clean up failed task heirarchies where it is just attribute / entry modifications rather than privilege assignments.
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,
Hope all is going well with your project, the two bits of code you need for this are:
Find all the failed privileges for an Identity
var sql = "SELECT MSKEY,aValue,provstatus FROM MXPV_Priv_AddStatus WHERE (MSKEY = " +V_MSKEY +" and (ProvStatus = 1001 or ProvStatus = 1101))";
sqlresult = uSelect(sql);
This will give you a load of pairs of failed MSKEY - identity and aValue - privilege, which you need to split into strings via an array and then into values, and you can then retry using
retry = uRetryPrivilegeAdd(provmskey,provavalue);
I've put the full code on http://sap-idm.blogspot.com/2011/01/retrying-failed-provisioning-tasks-in.html in case you need more information.
Good luck,
Ian Daniel

Why do I get 'ResolveManifestFiles task failed' error when building a WPF app that references WinRT API?

0
down vote

I am working on a WPF app that I want to create for Windows 8. I followed steps mentioned in
Hansleman's blog to make some manual modifications using WinRT functions in a WPF app. Everything worked well, until I tried to publish the app. When I clicked on publishing the app I got error "The 'ResolveManifestFiles' task failed unexpectedly.
System.ArgumentException: Value does not fall within the expected range."
Afterwards, it will produce the same error when attempting a simple solution build.
Even if you create a simple WPF project and add the references mentioned in blog to access WinRT functions and publish, this issue can be reproduced.
I think it would be common scenario to call WinRT functions from WPF and someone should have done it. Is anyone aware what should be done to fix this issue?

I am having the same problems and came across this article while researching a workaround.
It is surprising more people aren’t talking about this.
Here are the steps to reproduce the problem; Using Visual Studio Express 2012 (x64) create a new VB Windows Forms Application.
Unload the project and edit the [ProjName].vbproj in the solution explorer.
Add <TargetPlatformVersion>8.0</TargetPlatformVersion> to the <PropertyGroup>.
Save and reload the project. In Add Resource/Reference Manager add the Windows.minmd found under Windows/Core.
This WinRT/Desktop solution will run as expected. Now try to Publish this solution.
It will FAIL with the following ERROR; “The ResolveManifestFiles task failed unexpectedly, Value does not fall within the expected range.”
Attempting to build or run the solution again now will fail with the same Error.
The only way to build the project now is to remove the “Enable ClickOnce security settings” option under the project properties Security settings.
Occasionally using this trick, the solution will build but not run.
When that happens jiggle around with Debug/Release Solution Configurations and the Any CPU/x64 Solution Platforms then rebuild and try the run again.
This fussing around will get you through development however any attempt to publish with restore the ClickOnce security setting and create the previous Error.
The first question here is how do you publish a WinRT app for the desktop with VS2012 Express.
Then secondly, if that is not possible can we publish this Express solution with a 3rd party deployment tool like InstallShield Limited Edition or the WIX Toolset.
Neither however seems functional in a VS Express environment.
Then thirdly, are there ways to access hardware sensor devices from a desktop solution without resorting to the WinRT API.
Any ideas or new research directions would be greatly appreciated.

PDF from Google Apps gmail/gdrive by Cloudprinter failed on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One

Dear forum contributors,
1. HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One
2. Linux OpenSuSE 12.2 64-bit
3. Failed , after the failed message is a very long URL to my gmail attachment.
4. This issue occured from the beginning, I have this printer only for one week.
When I print different kinds of PDF's from Google Apps (gmail and gdrive) by Google Cloudprinter I got a failed message at the HP eprinter Recent Print Jobs list.
Other prints from Google Cloudprinter, for example a webpage or a Google Docs document (not PDF) is working fine.
Also sending the same PDF's directly to my @hpeprinter.com e-mail address is working fine.
Is this a problem by Google Cloudprinter or HP e-print? How to solve the problem?
Thanks for helping,
Jurjen

After much research, I was unable to obtain a direct answer for two reasons: HP doesn't support Linux or Cloud Print beyond initial setup. I was not very satisfied with this answer as I knew you would not really be either so I found some links and this may be the last I can provide any assistance here due to the two reasons above. These links cover everything and should provide for you additional links to all of your questions I believe.
--Serving a Printer to Google Cloud Print from Linux--
--Google Cloud Print on Linux--
--Installing Google Cloud Print on a Linux Server--
Otherwise, if ePrint is not working within the apps using a Windows-based computer I am more than happy to assist you. You may continue to get support here from other community members regarding Linux but I may not be of much assistance. I can say the first place to check is www.eprintcenter.com and see what the error messages say there under the print history, cancel any pending print jobs and try again. Keep me posted on any additional information you may want to add regarding a Windows PC, otherwise I should direct you over to some great support provided by Google Cloud. Linux is suppose to work with these functions so I will leave you with this final excerpt from a Cloud Print Help site:
"Why is my document not printing?
1. Make sure your Google Cloud Print connector is running on a computer with Mac, Windows, or Linux.
2. If you're using Windows XP, make sure you also have the Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) installed.
3. Confirm that the computer connected to your printer is powered on and that you are logged in."
This printer should support this feature so to make sure, you can log into www.eprintcenter.com and select ePrint Settings under the customized email address on this page and ensure you have Print Services ON. I wish I could be of more assistance however. I strongly recommend contacting the manufacturer of the apps you are having the problem with as these functions work when you use them like ePrint was intended (via email and mobile devices). Good Luck!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
Every problem has a solution!

How to trigger provisioning - after approval task failed but data corrected

Hi,
We have a situation where the approvals are provided for the requests but approval task failed(denied) due to misconfiguration. But really all the approvals are provided by the required personnel. So, we need to manually correct the data and trigger the provisioning. Could you please advise on how to manually/otherwise trigger the provisioning in this scenario
Thanks,
Sudhakar

Thanks Kevin. We could locate these requests and update the records in DB. But wasn't sure if we can trigger the automatic provisioning from there. I was thinking there may be a way to restart the workflow/provisioning from the point where it failed. That would be a nice feature to have.

Google Apps Email migration; Fatal error: tls_start_servertls() failed

HI,
I am piloting/evaluating a Google apps account at the request of one department and have hit a snag with email migration. Hoping someone here as performed a migration before and might be able to help.
My source is a 10.5.8 mail server and the only real modification to it has been the spam prevention techniques recommended by the fine folks over at topicdesk (works great). In any case, during the google migration API. it requests the following (and i place my entries next to it):
name: server
server software: cyrus
host: I input FQDN of server
security (the choices are SSL or STARTTLS, i use STARTTLS)
port: I input 993
That’s it and then I proceed. It asks for user credentials which I provide (and know are correct).
If I select STARTTLS, it errors out and in my mail logs (set to information), I see this:
Jan 15 13:28:01 host imaps[30911]: imaps TLS negotiation failed: mail-pz0-f30.google.com [209.85.222.30]
Jan 15 13:28:01 host imaps[30911]: Fatal error: tlsstartservertls() failed
If I use SSL (instead of STARTTLS) from the google API, it just silently fails on the mail server (nothing in the logs) and on the google side, it says unable to auth user name but it obviously isn’t even hitting the server when I use SSL since the mail logs do not show failed login attempts when using only SSL on the google migrator API.
So, I am choosing to attack the STARTTLS angle of this...
The local mail clients all can connect fine and they ARE using TLS as made evident here:
Jan 15 13:30:11 host imaps[31304]: login: client [xxx.xxx.xxx.xx] user CRAM-MD5+TLS User logged in
I experience no issues with STARTTLS from apple mail / thunderbird, etc. Only from the Google migrator API so the:
imaps TLS negotiation failed
Fatal error: tlsstartservertls() failed
seems odd to me in that I recall this issue long ago and it was related to TLS not starting but that obviously isn’t the case here since my other TLS clients are connecting to CYRUS using TLS.
Any ideas? Migrating the users via an IMAP client like mail will be a pain if this migrator tool doesn’t work
here’s my imapd.conf just in case:
admins: cyrusimap, postmaster, imapadmin
configdirectory: /Volumes/Vault/Mail/Database
partition-default: /Volumes/Vault/Mail/Store

quotawarn: 80
enable_sieve: 0
imapauthgssapi: yes
popauthgssapi: yes

Well, setting tls to “use” instead of require did not help. Same behavior:
Selecting “SSL” with port 993 in google migrator tool immediately invokes the error:
Failed to authenticate IMAP username: user (I have tried a few users and verified name / password). The mail logs also show nothing so I don’t think SSL can work in a 10.5.x setup since TLS is involved since it seems it never even hits the server at all using this method.
Selecting “STARTTLS” with port 993 in google migrator shows a:
“failed to contact imap server” mail logs continue to show: Jan 25 10:28:21 host imaps[89058]: imaps TLS negotiation failed: mail-pz0-f3.google.com [209.85.222.3]
I’m sure it would work if I enabled IMAP in the clear (hence disabling IMAP SSL completely) but that isn’t going to happen for obvious reasons.
I’ll try contacting google and see if they have any suggestions :X

Google Apps User Provisioning - Anyone integrating via Oracle? ... I am

Currently I am developing against the Google Apps - User Provisioning 2.0 API and have developed most of the API functionality in a pl/sql package (all of the methods in the API document are implemented and tested except the "retrieval" actions: user [add, edit, delete], nickname [add, delete], email list [add, delete], and email list subscriber [add, delete]).
Specifically, I am working with an educational client using SunGard HE's Banner (formerly SCT), and they'll be using Google Apps Education Edition for student email services.
Just wondering how many people out there, edu or not, are developing against the Google Apps User Provisioning API?

Google apps sync with Pre2 failed

Hi
I was using google apps sync with my old Pre (1.4.5) and it worked fine.
Configuration is same as iphone. Just select Exchange EAS and use the manuel exchange settings to m.google.com
this synced all mails, calendar, contacts similar to an Microsoft exchange server.
However, I can't get it running on the Pre 2. It conncets but but no mails or calendar entries appear.
Any idea? Is this not supported anymore with WebOS 2. This would be a very big step back.
Best Regards
Joerg
Post relates to: Pre 2 p102ueu (Unlocked EU)

Hi, thanks for the info, do you know the name of this option?
BTW: It's a google apps company account and Pop and IMAP is disabled, so for webos1.4.5 the exchange option is working pretty nice. Would be great if I can enable this in webos2.0, then the sync limitations mentioned in other forum threads won't be there.

I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.
I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
[email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:

Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
Tools console.
Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario. With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc. Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

TS3899 Custom Domain of Gmail account(google app for business) greyed out(disabled) in iOS7 mail for no reason.

Dear guys,
I have a free/standard version of google app for business with @simmonstaiwan.com.tw as our domain. One of our user's email account one day suddenly cannot access her email account that was already setup in iOS 7 mail app. Only her company gmail acct grey out, her other personal email accounts are working just fine.
First, I thought it was her iPhone5's issue. Therefore I tried to remove the email account and re-added it back. No work. So I thought maybe it's the custome domain gmail account issue. So, I added her email account to my iPhone4s with iOS7 with correct account name and password. Still not working, the account added successful and is enable, but I just cannot click into or onto that account and see any emails. That account name just greyed out for no reason.
So, I grab an iPad with iOS6 on it and added that account onto the machine. It worked!! Looks like that email account(gmail) only worked on iOS6 device but not iOS7. May I know maybe what really caused this to occur?
Any comments or suggestions or thoughts are very welcome and will be helpful for me to debug.
Best Regards,
Jay Lin

You set it up, and you failed to distinguish between the SMTP servers or assign the correct one to your copy of Mail (it doesn't actually know which is which, you need to inform it)
Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts (NOT Mail>Accounts) and go down to the SMTP server list, choose the correct server for each account then check the box that says 'Use Only This Server' for each account.
This is not automatic, you get to choose and if you don't then this will result.
Remove the non functional ones.

(App-store) Compilation failed while executing : compile-abc

I just upgraded to AIR16 and can no longer compile for the ios app store from Windows 7.
Calling "adt -package -target ipa-test ..." with AIR16 works correctly, installs and runs on my device.
Calling "adt -package -target ipa-app-store ..." with AIR16 crashes the compiler with this generic error:
Compilation failed while executing : compile-abc
Calling "adt -package -target ipa-app-store ..." with AIR14 (and the new compiler, not legacy) works correctly.
How do I get more information about what is happening? I have no ANEs. Could this have something to do with the new 64-bit requirements? My version of Java? With provisioning profiles? What else is different between test and app-store compile modes?

Update: I tried a half dozen different ways to compile with AIR16 to no joy. Test works fine, App Store compile fails.
Then finally tried the current AIR17 beta which DOES work. I don't see anything in the release notes about fixing ios app-store compile issues, though there's a new known ios-related bug with textfields.
Does ADT produce an error log file somewhere? I'd like to get more info about this "Compilation failed while executing : compile-abc" error if I ever run into it again.

flexunit 4.1 B3 Ant task fails to run Air-based tests

Folks,
I am using FlexUnit4.1 Beta 3 and am seeing the <flexunit> Ant task fail when running tests that use the Air libraries. The project in question used to test just fine with version 4.0 earlier this year, but I just dusted it off after a branch change and tried re-running with 4.1and started seeing the failure.Here is the relevant console output:

The error message is not very specific... The last output seen before the failure is "Found AIR version: 1.5".

Come to think of it, I am not sure exactly how the host machine should be configured to run FlexUnit tests that require Air. Do I really need Air to be installed? I have Air 2.0.3.13070 installed, but the <flexunit> task thinks it found version 1.5 - hmmm... I also have the debug Flash 10 player, and SWF appplications are configued to run using this player. Flex tests run fine, just not Air tests. What am I missing?
I see that 4.1 RC1 is now out, so I will grab that and give it a try.
If anyone who tests air more often has any advice - I am all ears!
Thanks,
Trevor

Thanks for your responses, Brian!
Yes, I think I see the immediate problem. The problem is that there is no Air runtime in our customized Flex SDK (based on 3.2), even though it appears to have the Air compile libraries. I had been attempting to use this custom SDK to run FlexUnit with, and I think that needs to change.
Why was I doing this?
Well, I had tripped over some problems with 4.1 earlier on when I attempted to run it without having FLEX_HOME set in the environment. So, now I have been setting FLEX_HOME programmatically in my code before calling the <flexunit> task. And I had figured that it would be a good idea to set FLEX_HOME to the same SDK that the tests had been built with, i.e. our customized one. Now I am thinking that this is not necessary, since our end users will never have access to this SDK. I now think that I should be able to install a new stock Adobe Flex SDK on my CI server, install the Air runtime into it, and then use that location when I set FLEX_HOME. Is that how others are doing it? If anyone could validate this approach, I would be grateful.
One question that arises in my mind now: How does the Air runtime get into the Flex SDK? I have installed the Air runtime using the installer from Adobe some time ago, so I am not quite sure what all that did. I assume the Air installer finds all the Flex SDKs on your machine and inserts the runtime in each location appropriately? Again, pardon my ignorance...
I have just tried out the above idea, i.e. setting FLEX_HOME to a different SDK that has Air runtime, and the <flexunit> task worked when I ran it! An Air window opened, the tests ran, and reports were generated. So, it would appear my problem is solved! Cool beans!
Brian, you made some comments about another possible issue with the "custom app descriptor". I am not sure if that applies to me or not. How would I know whether or not we need that support? Again, I know it would help if I was the developer who had actually written the Flex tests, but I am not...
Anyway, I hope this thread helps other folks who are having similar issues. I am going to reinstall a fresh Adobe SDK and the Air installer on a clean machine next, and see if the tests will run there.
Before ending this thread, I do want to point out that the ant task might have need of improvement in the case in which the user attempts to run the air "player" but the Air runtime is not setup in the SDK. On Windows, the ant process simply hung at this point, apparently thinking that the launch of the player had been successful, but in reality, the message about the air runtime being not found had occurred. It might be nice if it exited gracefully with a warning message instead of hanging. Just a suggestion...
Brian, as always, thanks again for your help with this issue.You guys are doing a great job with this project. Please keep it up!
Thanks,
Trevor
