Hal, usbdisk, kde - a problem with /media/* directory

Hello,
I am havng a problem with my usbdisk. At first it's mounted at /media/sda1, then during hibernation (kernel23archck, hibernate-scripts, suspend to disk) the script unloads usb modules. When I start the computer again my usbdisk becomes /media/sdb1 and the previous directory becomes empty. Is it possible to force hal to mount my usbdisk always in the same directory e.g. /media/usbdisk ???
Thanks in advance.
mdv

I have a similar problem, when ever I put in an usb pin in mounts it first as sda1, but if I take it out and put it in again, it mounts as sdb1, and sda1 is still mounted in the media directory, so now I have both sda1 and sdb1 mounted, although the sda1 directory is empty.
Why doesn't hal unmount the usb pin after I take it out?

Thanks
kiran.B

Kiran,
Start you J2EE engine visual administrator.
Choose Cluster--> server ---> services ---> deploy
Here there will be one application/service named "directory" (dont remember the exact name).Please start that service and your problem should be solved.
Thanks,
Anand

[Solved][Hal and Partitions] Newbie problem with hal policy

Hello everybody,
As a new user of archlinux for less than a week I have experienced a great distribution after having been for 1 year on Linux.
After installation I was able to solve most of my problems with the wiki and the forums but there is one problem I cannot resolve.
I have installed Kde 4.2 on my computer and I can mount Usb drives, or CDs with hal (It is in the daemons section of my rc.conf) but strangely I cannot access my other partitions such as my Ubuntu partition (ext3), or the family's Windows partition (Nfts). I have installed nfts-3g for the nfts partition hal refuses to let me access it, I will give you what Dolphin says when I try to access the Nfts:
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: hal-storage-mount-fixed-extra-options no <-- (actions,result)
And for the ext3
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: hal-storage-mount-fixedauth_admin_keep_always <-- (actions,result)
I don't really understand what It means but normally I am allowed to mount partitions.
My /etc/PolycyKit/PolicyKit.conf: http://pastebin.com/m57e94025
And my /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf: http://pastebin.com/m62861179
I've already tried to configure these two with the wiki and the forums but nothing yet.
If you need more information ask me.
Thanks in advance.

You might want to reread the Hal wiki re: Permission Denied with automounter. Your /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf seems to be missing the lines mentioned in the wiki.
Edit: Or maybe it is similair to: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=66008

Problems with Active Directory and Windows 2003

Hello,
I'm using Mac OS X Server 10.4.9 with Active Directory bound to a Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain. I can bind successfully to the domain using the graphical interface. Then in Samba I can access shared directories using Windows users. However, after some time somehow there are problems and Windows users aren't authenticated anymore on the Mac. I've looked at the firewall and there are no denied packets from the Mac. There are two servers in the domain, all clocks are synchronized and domain information is up to date. When I unbind the Mac, I can see the machine account being deleted on both domain servers and created too on both machines when I bind to the domain.
Problems occur when I try login in using ssh or samba do I think this is a problem with the AD module.
I turned on debugging messages on DirectoryServices:
sudo killall -USR1 DirectoryService
When in Windows, using the Administrator user I try:
net use \\10.0.0.1 /user:domain\Administrator
Where 10.0.0.1 is the Mac.
In the Mac I get from
tail -f /Library/Logs/DirectoryService/DirectoryService.debug.log |grep ADPlug

XServe G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hello.
Thanks for your reply.
I tried the net use with a drive letter with and without the /user switch. When I use a domain user domain\user1 I can't connect. When I use a user local to the XServe it works.
When I use
net use x: \\10.0.0.1\share /user:domain\user1
I get prompted for a password, but it doesn't work.
I checked the firewall and all packets to or from the mac are accepted, no denied or dropped packages.
I already went through the MS document on fw ports. Before I opened to Kerberos ports the binding failed. No the binding work OK.
Some users who were authenticated yesterday still can access files using the Windows domain accounts. It's new users trying to connect those who have problems.

Problem with finding directory

Hi,
I built an application on Windows and I have to find a document within another directory. I am using getAbsolutepath and I am having problems with the following type of path:
File test = new File("u1/usr/my program/myFile/")
if(test.isDirectory())
this works on Windows, however it doesn't work on Unix....I also tried the following on Unix
File test = new File("u1/usr/my\\ program/myFile/")
if(test.isDirectory())
and it also doesn't work.
thanks in advance for any help!

I just made a directory with a space in it (on Linux) and created a file to find it, and it worked fine. I have the directory
/home/joshua/my directory
And made the call
File file = new File("/home/joshua/my directory");and the file did exist and was a directory.
Try testing the call with
System.out.println("file = " + file.getAbsolutePath());
And make sure that that file exists.

Replication problem with iPlanet directory server 5.1 SP2 HF1

If I make a apply a change to either of consumer servers for an entry that belongs to the large database, that change does get applied to the consumer targated but it can not refer the change to teh master. Neither the master, nor the other consumers get updated consequently. I did not have this problem with directory server 5.1 SP1. I only see this problem after I apply directory server 5.1 SP2 HF1.
From the error log file, I see the following message:
NSMMReplicationPlugin - repl_set_mtn_referrals: could not set referrals for replica

I have a suggestion - try another means for administering your directory - use the console only for maintenance and tuning purposes. There are several products out there that are much better for day to day operations ...
Otherwise - I think with 5.1 the view is based on the rdn of the entries - and I am not sure it is customizable. Additionally I know 5.2 solved your second issue - maybe the latest SP of 5.1 has solved it as well - though I don't really know ...

MSI 180 - Problems with Media center III

Hey,
I have a problem with the Media Center III. When I want to watch TV I have to make a automatic scan in both Cable and Antenna. It seems that nearly all of my channels are found under the Antenna scan (strange I have Cable).
Well my problem is that eventhough I set the TV source to Antenna every time the Media center III software have been shut down I have to go into TV -> settings -> change the TV source from Antenna to Cable and back to Antenna to get the channels.
Anyone had the same problem.
Please help, how do I get the software to remember the settings......
best regards
K. Brinkmann

Problem with save directory in photobooth

I installed Leopard this week and when I go into photobooth I get this message:
There was a problem creating the photo save directory /Users/Pictures/Photobooth. Your photos cannot be saved.
Has anyone else seen this? Do you know what to do? I have problems with the new background features in video chat and photobooth.

Welcome to Apple Discussions, lillolablue
Photo Booth works fine on my PPC Macs, but I do not have an iNtel Mac to test your problem.
You can eliminate iSight as a possible contributor to your problems by using these tips:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93240
If your iSight works in other user accounts or other applications as suggested in the above link, got back to the user account where you have the problem. Be sure Photo Booth is not running. Then throw away the "com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist" file. (It is in your Home > Library > Preferences folder.) Restart Photo Booth.

Software Installation Problems with Media Source and Nomad Explo

Hello Creative Users,
recently I had to reinstall my operating system on the PC. I have an IBM Thinkpad R30 with a Sitecom USB2.0 pccard. I am running WinXP Pro SP2 with all latest updates.
I have a Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra with Firmware .20.08 and an update harddri've of 80GB.
As long as I was running the software on my previous installation everything worked fine.
I installed the driver .26.02. This recognized the Jukebox. Musicmatch is able to communicate to the Jukebox and recognizes all files on it.
When I installed Nomad Explorer I got an error ctregserv failed because ctin...dll is not found.
When I tried to install Media Source from the original disk it showed an error after 30% Media Source not found. Install Media Source before continuing.
This is what I received now with all verisons of Media Source and Noamd Explorer incl. .30.0.
Can someone help me as synchronizing with Musicmatch is a pain.
Thanks
Rolf

Hi everyone,
as I saw many questions regarding installation problems with Mediasource or Nomad Explorer
in this forum I will answer my own question right here. I was pointed to the answer by a friend with a similar problem on some other software.
When trying to install the Creative software under WinXP SP2 I happens that the registration does not work. the reason are missing write attributes to the keys for
Creative software. To correct that go to: Start, Run and enter regedit. Hit ok and you are in the registration editor.
Find the Creative location unde HKEYS_SOFTWARE. Click right mouse button and choose
properties.
Check full access for your user as well the system user. click on advanced and mark both all the users you want to install from. Check the lower box below the user window sayin something about roghts being propagetd to lower folders etc. Cklick conform and ok, click confirm on previous screen and close regedit.
Now you should be ok and able to install.
Regards
Rolf

Problem with media card

there is some kind of problem with my media card. it is not showing any files on the card. though the space is showing that the files are still there on the card and even when i connect it to the pc it shows the files are there on the card but i cant read any of the files. please help. cant loose the data on my card

Try copying the files on your SD card to a folder on your computer, reinsert the SD card into your BB and proceed to format the card.
To format the card go to Options > Advanced Options > Memory Card. Press the menu button and select Format Card.
Plug your phone into the computer again via USB, making sure your device is set to be used as a Mass Storage device. Go to "My Computer" and open your device. Copy the files from your computer back to your Blackberry. Unplug your phone from the computer and see if you are able to open the files.
Disclaimer: I'm just a regular user like the rest of you. I have spent a lot of time learning the limitations of the Blackberries to know how to fix most problems. If I have suggested a fix, please give a kudo and mark as a solution!

Problems with Active Directory Users showing as not found in Open Directory work group manager

I’m running a golden triangle setup with Open directory assigning group policy and authentication provide by active directory. In workgroup manager I can search through the AD and add users or computers to groups in OD workgroup manager. However when I save and refresh the users or computer appear as ‘not found’. Is there a reason for this?

Hi Zero
It's very reassuring to know im not the only one having issues with this..
Im on my second re install of the server.. I like you have no wish to do another clean install as everything else is connected and it seems like the answer is probably very simple.
So today im going to re- run the terminal commands as layed out in the online guides.
However i was kinda hoping someone would be able to supply us with an answer.
thanks

Problems with Media and my Blackberry Bold, is it time for me to give up on RIM this is really annoying

Hello RIM,
Over the past year since owning a Blackberry, I have had on-going issues with syncing my music between my (2) bolds, so I know this is not specific to the hardware, I have also managed 400 BB's on a BES before so I have a fair idea of how to do things and troubleshoot issues.
1. My music many times has sounded severely distorted through my car speakers, with lots of bad crackle that hurts my ears
2. Transferring media between my device and my computer is actually really annoying and now I can't even find my playlists on Windows 7
3. This should be seemless, it should not be buggy and I can't believe, having done so much support with your hardware and software that this continues to be a real problem for me
I have a playbook, 2 blackberry bolds (I had to buy another 1 because Mobilicity does AWS only and Bell was just plain mean to me so I gave up on them).
I am ready to go on ebay and get rid of this stuff because whilst I mostly use it as a phone (the reason I went with BB), it is important that I am able to do other things with it, without having to go through a dozen articles and issues just to get things to work, these should have been ironed out in the bug reporting process.
So I have reinstalled both Itunes and BB Desktop Manager, both manually and via repair and tried even recopying over my playlists, this doesn't work.
I can't believe the lousy support and buggy software, come on RIM, there is no excuses in this market, PICK UP YOUR GAME and update the BDS or I am done and so will the many other people who won't even take their time to write anything about it on here but vote with their wallet.

Well you know the playbook is actually pretty cool but didn't seem to be ready to go out on time and being a late entrant to the market I would have expected them to showcase the playbook better, especially like how Nintendo gets out there and gets everyone playing with it hands on, there are some things about the Playbook that actually make it unique but it has been poorly marketed.
Unfortunately getting BDS and everything to work properly should not be an issue, I have already spent thousands of dollars on hardware and my phone provider, what am I actually paying for here? So I will spell out some things that make the Blackberry Playbook special and what I would have been pushing had I been in charge of marketing. Firstly I would have had a few different campaigns going, one that targeted business corporate customers, regular business customers and the public that use them as their choice of smartphone and open to potentially buying one.
1. Flash works really great, come on blackberry, why couldn't you team up with Facebook on this one? Facebook looks better on a Playbook than any other tablet I have seen, in fact the web looks better in general.
2. Stereo speakers(dual), movies sound great, music sounds great and so do games, in this area, Playbook has the upper hand.
3. USB & HDMI out - Allows much easier portability of presentations and transferring of files and now I believe there is the Wifi Sync as well.
4. Blackberry Bridge - You know it's like RIM got backed into a corner on this one, but you know, I think this is the most secure way to operate a tablet, I love how when I turn off bluetooth on my bold, my personal and private information is removed and I can pass it to friends and family without my personal communications being looked into, with the other tablets, it's pretty hard to have different people on them, without probably creating different profiles, with the Playbook, you could share it between a team and it would seamlessly operate between them.
5. True Multitasking - You know, you can play music, whilst playing a game and you can switch between applications, this funtions pretty awesome. I put on some cool music and loaded up a game on the device and someone whom had an Apple device was sincerely impressed he could listen to music whilst reading or playing games etc. This could also enhance Business Presentations that require audio in the background whilst displaying and going through different information / files or charts.
6. QNX OS - I mean wow Blackberry, this Operating System is fantastic, I love it, this was an EXCELLENT choice and this I will give you 5 stars on, I can't wait to see what QNX can do on the Blackberry and I would not be surprised if the QNX OS became a major OS against the others, it definitely is polished and apps just install and are ready to go in no time.
RIM has been ahead of the game and because of it's great name with-in business circles they have almost sold themselves and whilst it's nice to see that RIM has sold over 250,000 units with-in the first week this could have been drastically improved by realizing when getting into a NEW market, they need to do the proper marketing and get the devices out there with subject matter experts to educate people whom are checking them out so they can share that information with their friends.
Google paid a very large price with their Nexus One because they where over-confident and thought they would sell based on their name alone, this could have been a learning curve RIM did not have to deal with. There are actually other nice things about the Playbook, the apps that are in their app store are pretty cool and when Android apps are available it will be cooler.
I like the size of the tablet I can comfortably reach accross the screen to hit all the keys on the digital keyboard making it any larger and I couldn't hold it in my hands with the same comfort; copping out to apple fan boys thinking they must have a 10.1" tablet is not necessary, this is the perfect size to sit in your hands, some people think they are small but if they actually watch a movie or play a game on it or look at websites by "Playing with it themselves" they will react differently and actually suggest if your going to do a 10.1" tablet, also keep the smaller sized one as well.
Suggestions :
- Working on building in more extensions for gaming such as Unity so that games like battlestar galactica online etc could be played online and directions could be replaced by using the gyroscope.
- Hire more people if you are having problems meeting deadlines, these companies, including Apple are taking risks to win the market, if your going to take a swing at your competitors, please make it a punch and not a jab, the biggest thing you still have on your side is the market you already had and the market share you have been losing and since we all upgrade our devices so often at this time, come out with something special and we will continue to support you. Okay now that I have that off my chest I feel better. DAMMIT !

Problem with SAP Directory

Hi,
I have to transfer some records from internal table field (type string) to SAP Directory(AL11) Directory: /sapmnt/CRD/qoutsap, some of the records are very large (around 800 characters). for larger record it is not displaying the complete string, it is displaying only upto 513 char. but when I am downloading same data (from same internal table) to my local system using GUI_DOWNLOAD function. it is displaying correctly. can any body tell me what could be the reason for this problem.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Amit

Hi,
We had the same problem where we needed to show more than 1000 character, but it was showing only 513.
It will not create any problem.
When you download, you will get full length.
Please check with your basis team, they may help you.

Problem with zipping directory

Running 10.6.8
Directory has EVERYONE R/W access
when I try to COMPRESS , I receive a message:
The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access “.DS_Store”. with OK button.
It is so annoying and its NOT OK getting this message at all.
The directory/files were received via email as a single ZIP made on Windows system. Unzipped without any problems, except directory had a READ ONLY permissions. Changed that to R/W for EVERYONE to enter.
Than while trying zipping it back ... this annoying message appears on the screen.
Anyone from Apple will be able to help ??????

Logon problem with Active Directory

I maintain iMacs and Mac Pros connected to a Windows campus network using a combination of Mac OS X's Active Directory utility and DAVE, a Windows file and print sharing software from Thursby Software. I have found that a handful of users cannot connect to the network. They can log on, but they get the default screen and the sparse default Dock. The campus network services are not available to them.
I have found on studying the issue is that their active directory accounts of aliases in lower-case letters; in contrast, the vast majority have aliases in upper-case letters. Evidently, users with upper-case aliases in their Active Directory accounts can enjoy full network access, whereas those with lower-case aliases do not.
Is there an underlying issue here that keeps users with lower-case aliases from accessing both Apple and network resources, or should I look elsewhere for the cause?

There are several folders in the User Template on Leopard. One, English.lproj, is what I use to store the user template settings. There are also two others, user.template and non-localized.
user.template is a truly root-level folder which is inaccessible from the Aqua visual interface; when unlocked its icon turns into a folder. In terminal mode, logged on as root, I found a basic set of folders. I decided to leave those alone.
non-localized appears to be the same thing as English.lproj; it certainly has the same set of user folders. I decided to copy the folders and settings I made for English.lproj into non-localized. I invited another person with the lower-case alias problem to log on. He got the entire configuration, wallpaper, Dock and all. I confirmed this with the same person I had test the log on yesterday. He too got the whole config.
So it is evident that Leopard was using information from LDAP/AD to determine which template to download. The majority with the upper-case aliases gets the configuration from the English.lproj folder; the lower-case-alias minority get the non-localized configuration, i.e., nothing at all. Knowing this, I can now prepare our iMacs to accommodate everyone.
