HELP: SP01: Printer Name is Invalid

Hello SAP Friends/Gurus,
I am getting "The printer name is invalid" error message in SP01, when trying to print in SAP:
Windows/NT error 1801 [
<my machine name>\<my printer name>]: "The printer name is invalid."
The thing is, my machine and printer name are both correct. I even tried changing the settings of my printer (from its hostname to its IP address) in SPAD. My printer is directly connected to my computer.
Also, I could not print using LOCL.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thank you very much in advance!
Best Regards,
Albert

Hai,
Are you using 'C' as your access method, check that.
This message indicates that the printer name is invalid or otherwise incorrect. Click on Start > Run, and enter the same UNC to see if the printer can be accessed manually. If attempting to set the printer as default, the printer name and the share name must match exactly same (case sensitive also).
Enter the UNC name of the printer (name and network path) as it is defined in the Microsoft Windows Print Manager.
For example:
P09330\P330

You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

HT1751 Consolidating ITunes Library Failed - message received: "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long" . Please help - how to i fix this issue?

I consulted your website for details on how to back up my ITunes Library on my PC-found the article very helpful-I reached step 7 - clicked ok and the following message came up: "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long." Please can you help and advise what I should do or how to fix this issue. My pc operating system is Windows 7 Home Basic

You can select a group of tracks and consolidate from the right-click context menu. You coud try consolidating in batches, say all songs by artists beginning with A, then B, etc, then the other media types, until you can isolate a problem track and then try moving that by hand and fixing the broken link.
I also have two scripts that could help you, Unconsolidated and ConsolidateByMoving. The first can make a playlist of all unconsolidated tracks, the second can consolidate a selection of tracks by moving them instead of copying.

Invalid printer name error (-41002)

While I use 'Print Report.vi with new HP Deskjet 5443 printer (connected to the computer by USB and configured as a deafault) I get Invalid printer name error (-41002).
The application is working properly with other printers.
The "HP Deskjet 5400 Series" name appears in the printers list that was found by "Get Printers list.vi".
The printer is printing properly with Word, Excel and other applications.
I am working with Labview v8.00.

Hi Alex,
I have found a corrective action request in our R&D database that addresses this very error occurring, with HP-5940(USB) printers. I plan to add your feedback that it is happening for you as well with the HP 5443.
Have you tried going to the printers entry in the control panel, getting the printer name there, and then entering that as a string constant into Print Report.vi ? Also, you can try leaving the input terminal empty and it should use the default printer.
Let me know if either of these works for you.

Help with Print Layout Designer

Hi all,
I'm not sure if I should post this here or not, I already posted it in the Business One Forum. Moderator(s) if this is not the proper place please delete it and let me know that it is not the appropriate venue.
I need some help with Print Layout Designer. I am running 2005A SP01, and my customer wants a modification to the Sales Backorder Report. They want to add the column "In Stock" to both the report as displayed on the screen and the printed document. The report rendered to the screen has the In Stock, but it is not checked as visible. I check it and In Stock shows up as designed. The part I am having problems with is the printed document. I opened the PLD from the Backorder Report, and saved it under a different name. I resized some of the columns in the repetitive area (header and data) to make room for the In Stock column. I CAN add the text field Instock as free text and enter "In Stock" as the content. I looked at the "backorder" column in the PLD, and it is a text field with the source System Variable and the variable is 109. I would assume that all I need to do in my added column is to set the source to System Variable and enter the variable number. That is the problem; I can't find the variable number for that column. I looked on the report rendered to the screen with system information on and the variable is "3 #000027825,OnHand". I looked at the Back Order column of the report rendered to the screen and the variable is "3 #000028725,OpenCreQty". I found a spreadsheet that is supposed to contain a list of system variables for 2007A, but the document type for this report is BRDR and that document type does not appear in the list of document types in that spreadsheet. I looked for a similar spreadsheet for 2005A SP01 but didn't find one. I DID find a document "How To Customize Printing Templates with the Print Layout Designer". According to that document, I should be able to get the system variable from the report rendered to the screen with System Information turned on. Can anyone help?
TIA,
Steve

I haven't dealt with this before so I can't be certain, but here are my thoughts.
The Backordered Qty is probably a calculated field, so that's why it's a system variable. The In Stock is a defined field, so you probably can use the file and field number, OITM, OnHand. I would look at maybe the stock number or description to see how those are setup on the form instead of the backordered qty field.

ITunes v10.6.1.7 "Copying files failed. The File name was invalid or too long."

I'm trying to organize my music files using iTunes 10.6.1.7 and I keep getting the error message "Copying files failed. The File name was invalid or too long."
I've got music folders by artist in both the iTunes Music folder and the iTunes Media/Music folder. When I add certain files by drag/drop they sometimes get lost and I don't want that to happen anymore. I used to just consolidate my music files using the File/Library/Organize Library option and that worked, however now when I do that, I get the error message.
I'm a novice and the only online stuff I see is both confusing and refers to earlier versions of iTunes.
My concern is that I have heard that people lose entire libraries of their music when they trry to fix things like this and I don't want that. If this is of any importance, I have several files called iTunes library and temp library. I have no idea what that all means but I'm scared to death of it.
Also, I can't get to the "re-organize library" link at all. It won't let me.
One thing that be of some interest is that when I pull up the properties of the music and media/music files they are marked "read only" I'm also afraid to touch that!
Please help and please know that I am a dummy. Be kind and be clear. Step by step would be great, with images even better. Thanks.

Perhaps nobody knows the answer? We're fellow users here answering questions in our free time when we think we've something useful to contribute.
You can choose to *Consolidate selected tracks* with a right-click menu. Perhaps if you can identify a specific track that won't consolidate and examine the full path to the file & the path that iTunes would create when it consolidates the problem might become apparent. For example iTunes may not be able to move files if the source or destination path length exceeds 255 characters.

"Sender Name is Invalid" (can't send email from POP account) iPhone 2.1

I updated from V2.0.2 to V2.1 today. I also swapped out my original iPhone EDGE for a new iPhone EDGE due to unrelated problems with the speaker.
Upon testing things after restoring from backup to the new phone I discovered that I could no longer SEND email from my POP account. I could receive email just fine on that account. Sending and receiving email on my MobilMe account also worked, as did sending and receiving email via the POP account while on the Mac computer I use to sync with this iPhone.
After digging into this with AppleCare we discovered that somehow the Port Address for the Outgoing Mail Server for that POP account had been changed from 25 to 587 on the iPhone.
Changing it back to 25 fixed my problem.
We don't know whether the problem was due to the 2.1 upgrade or due to something in the restore process after swapping the phones.
If you get the error message "Sender Name is Invalid" while trying to send email from a POP account on your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and select the line for your POP account.
Now scroll down to the Outgoing Mail Server entry which should show "SMTP" and the name of the outgoing mail server for that POP account. Select that line. This will display a list of servers with your POP account server showing at the top as the Primary Server. Select that line.
In the panel that displays, check the Server Port. If it is something odd like 587, that may be your problem. Select the line and you can edit it to something more normal like 25. Touch the "SMTP" button at the top left of the number entry screen to accept that new value.
We discovered that after correcting that value on the iPhone it STAYS corrected even after doing a new Sync with iTunes, or after MobileMe syncs.
--Bob

Sorry you had problems Bob.
Depending on the mail service you are using, Port 25 or Port 587 are usually acceptable for outgoing
SMTP mail. Many cafes will block the customary port 25 to prevent spammers from using their
wireless access.
There is a superb tutorial posted here:
http://www.webmail.us/docs/support/Macintosh-OSX-Mail.pdf
Also be sure for each mail account to turn ON the secondary AT&T server shown at the bottom
of the SMTP server list for each account -- it will make your transition from wireless to Edge
to 3G networks much more reliable.
Thanks for sharing what you've learned. Hope this helps.

I can not print a report from my quicken program because the printer name has the word on in it

I recently purchased and installed a HP Officejet Mobile L411 printer. For all apps. on my computer (Window&) the printer name is as follows: HP officiate Noble L411. On my Quicken program the printer name is as follows: HP Officejet Mobile L411 on USB001. In checking Quickens help/troubleshooting guide, Ifound thirst statement, make sure the printers name doesn"t contain the word "on". My question is how do I get my printers name in Quicken changed so it doesn't contain the word "on"

Try opening the PDF in Preview and see if it will print out of it.

Certutil -crl problems (the directory name is invalid)

Another problem for you fine experts to consider...2 tier PKI, offline Root 2008 R2, 1 Sub Ent CA in Domain1 (2008 R2) and 1 Sub Ent CA in Domain2 (2012 R2).
SubCA 1 and 2 are configured pretty much identically, however when setting up SubCA 2 I am having issues running the Certutil -CRL command to publish the CRL.
My CDP locations are configured as follows;
65:c:\WIndows\System32\CertSrv\CertEnroll\%3%8%9.crl
79:ldap://CN=%7%8,CN=CDP,CN=Public Key Services,CN=Services,%6%10
6:http://pki.domain2/CertEnrolment/%3%8%9.crl
65:file://\\pki.domain2\CertEnrolment\%3%8%9.crl
I can confirm that the base CRL publishes correctly to the CertEnroll location and LDAP correctly. But it fails trying to publish to the HTTP/File location (which is the same path).
I get the error:
CertUtil: -CRL command FAILED: 0x8007010b (WIN32/HTTP: 267 ERROR_DIRECTORY)
CertUtil: The directory name is invalid
Also the Delta CRL fails on the CertEnroll default directory as well as the file/http path with error;
Active Directory Certificate Services could not publish a Delta CRL for key 0 to the following location: file://\\pki.domain\CertEnrolment\CANAME+.crl.
Operation aborted 0x80004004 (-2147467260 E_ABORT)<o:p></o:p>
I'm pretty certain it's not a permissions issue as I've added Everyone for NTFS/share permissions to test without any change. The install was done with an Enterprise
Admin account but I'm doing all the testing now with a normal admin account (admin in the CA/server but not domain or enterprise admin).<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The File/HTTP location is on the CA itself (I know this is likely not best practise, but needs to be there in the short term) so not sure if the Windows firewall comes into play.
Thanks!

Hi driko,
It's not a best practise to give Everyone NTFS/share permissions!
What I suggest is you
1. Create a dedicated folder f.e. "C:\Repository" on CA and share it only with permissions to specific account (see below)
2. In CA publish CRLs to c:\WIndows\System32\CertSrv\CertEnroll\%3%8%9.crl
only and create a task in task scheduler that will be running on the dedicated account and will copy c:\WIndows\System32\CertSrv\CertEnroll\*.crl
to \\pki.domain2\Repozitory\*.crl
3. Make sure that account that is running this task on CA1 (Domain 1) has enough permissions for Repository share in Domain 2 (try running cmd as this user on
CA1 and copy files manually to \\pki.domain2\Repository\)
4. Map your http://pki.domain/CertEnrolment URL with IIS to physial C:\Repository\ folder path

"attempting to copy to the disk C:\ failed. the file name was invalid or...

"attempting to copy to the disk C:\ failed. the file name was invalid or too long." This was the message that I keep getting after trying to "add folder to library" of multiple tracks from an external hard drive. it only happens after a certain period of time.. i get about half of my tracks added before this message pops up. when i first got my i pod it worked fine. but after i hooked up my i pod several times without having that external drive on... the i pod took over that drive letter that my external drive used to use. so.. when i turned on my external drive, it was given a new letter.. then i tunes would not recognize those 1500 tracks that came from my external drive (explanation points listed next to tracks). so.. I deleted all of those files manually, then tried to add folder to library again from the new letter coordinating to my external hd. I kept getting that message above. after that i deleted all files associated with i tunes.. and uninstalled i tunes.. then did a reinstall.. did i tunes update from site... and tried to just add the set of tracks from that external hd... still same **** error. only now.. after i say ok to error... i tunes continues for like 2 seconds.. then has to shut down... ****!!! can anyone help me with this... anyone?

just to update my problem... I finally figured out that i had to disable the "copy to my itunes folder from my library option. just so you know. apparently i tunes cant handle the large transfer to itunes and also at the same time copy it to your itunes folder... APPLE fix this!!!!!! this suxxxxx....

Consolidate Problem. Copying files failed. The File name was invalid.

Hi to everyone,
My system is 10.5.8, iTunes 9.2.1 (4)
I tried to consolidate my iTunes library to an external HD. After about 100GB of copied music, I got the message : Copying files failed. The File name was invalid.
Now everytime I try again to consolidate, I get immediately this message. I am looking everywhere for a solution, and I only find the same problem for Windows iTunes users.
Actually I found very useful this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1708372,
which talks about with which order iTunes consolidates the media, so by digging a little in the folders to find which track has the problem and make the fix. It says that consolidate start copy the files by the date added order. So I can go in my new iTunes media folder and find the latest added track, then go back in iTunes, sort by date added the songs and locate the next song, to make the fix. However in my case, all previous and next songs (by date added), have been copied in the new locations.
I am stuck. I have a remaining 300GB of music to consolidate and dont know how to proceed.
Any help would be much appreciated..

Finaly, I managed to solve it by myself...,
following the help I found from the post of the thread I mentioned on my question...
What was the problem that made things more difficult in my case, is that a big amount of songs have been added at the same time, with just a few seconds time distance. So it was tougher to locate what was the last imported song, and where iTunes consolidation had stopped. Actually I had groups of about 100 songs with the same timestamp of date added and the consolidation was following the rule of the "date added" but not exactly with the order the songs was showing in the iTuned library. So I started checking all the songs very close to the last added in the media folder one by one with the "show in finder" command, and then I managed to found what was the one with the problem.
Regarding the problematic file, that was a midi file that had been imported in my iTunes.
I hope this will help anyone else that might have the same problem as me in the future.

Itunes for WIN7: attempting to copy to disk "..." failed. The file name was invalid or too long

itunes for WIN7: attempting to copy to disk "..." failed. The file name was invalid or too long
help!!

Max. path length is 255 characters, or perhaps there are some non-displaying characters hidden there. Try dropping a song you want to add to iTunes into the Automatically to iTunes folder to see if that works any better.

HT1751 Consolidating files failed. The file name was invalid or too long. How to trouble shoot this?

I am trying to move my iTunes library from old XP PC to Windows 7 PC, using an external hard drive. Using tutorial and signed in as administrator. Trying to consolidate my library and receive error message " Copying files fail. The file name was invalid or too long". Don't know what to do as next step. The library is sitting on the hard drive under the Administrator ID (My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music).
Any thoughts?

You can select a group of tracks and consolidate from the right-click context menu. You coud try consolidating in batches, say all songs by artists beginning with A, then B, etc, then the other media types, until you can isolate a problem track and then try moving that by hand and fixing the broken link.
I also have two scripts that could help you, Unconsolidated and ConsolidateByMoving. The first can make a playlist of all unconsolidated tracks, the second can consolidate a selection of tracks by moving them instead of copying.
