Hopefully simple question. Event ID 2 Task Category (2) Lenovo Message Center Plus Admin

Hey group,
Wanted to ask you guys what I was missing. In my event log as the title implies I have a Event ID 2 Task Category (2) error in Lenovo Message Center Plus Admin coming as a result of a 404 error. Issue is I don't know what page it is looking for when it is tossing me the 404 error. Is this a result of Lenvo Updater goofing up using the ADM templates for GPO or is this something else? Would be helpful if it registred the non working link it was trying to obtain so we could isolate it better. Thoughts on this? Thanks!

try this when you download the file save it to your download folder then right click it and run as admin. it says there is no Lenovo Digital Signature I tried to install it didn't work but I did it this way and it worked

  • Kernel Power - Event ID 41 - Task Category 63 (spontaneous improper shutdowns and reboots)

    I have been having consistent power offs/reboots lately, and im at my wits end about how to fix them.
    It always seems to happen when im playing a high end game (Guild Wars 2, Mirrors Edge, etc.). 
    I havent experienced it while just browsing or doing basic work, or while playing lower intensity games that hog less resources.
    The computer screen goes black, it reboots and i get the "windows has had an improper shutdown" kind of message.
    Usually after playing the game for an hour at the least, though its happened 2-3 hours into the game as well.
    I checked temps, and they are all normal,
    Ive also attempted updating drivers, and downgrading from any beta drivers i was using, and none of that seemed to affect it.
    I checked event viewer,
    And right before this shutdown i get the critical error "Kernel-Power" "Event ID 41" Task Category 63"
    this is the XML given to me in the details:

    If anyone has any suggestions as to what could be going wrong, or things to check it would be greatly appreciated.
    Ive looked around at others solutions and tried whats helped others and it hasnt done much so far.
    it seems like this is a very broad problem, with no unspecific fix in most cases.

    Hi,
    This scenario usually indicates a problem with the hardware. Or, the driver can cause this problem. To help isolate the problem, check the following items: 
    1. Overclocking: Disable overclocking to see whether the issue occurs when the system is run at the correct speed.
    2. Check the memory: Verify the memory by using a memory checker. Verify that each memory chip is
    the same speed and that it is configured correctly in the system.
    3. Power supply: Make sure that the power supply has enough wattage to appropriately handle the
    installed devices. If you added memory, installed a newer processor, installed additional drives, or added external devices, such devices can require more energy than the current power supply can provide consistently.
    4. Overheating: Check whether the system is overheating by examining the internal temperature of
    the hardware.
    5. Defaults: Use system defaults, and run the system. 
    If you see that the computer generates a Stop error that contains a BugcheckCode value that is not reported in an event ID 41, change the restart behavior for the computer. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    2. Click Advanced system settings.
    3. Click the Advanced tab.
    4. In the Startup and Recovery section, click Settings.
    5. Click to clear the Automatically restart check box.
    For more information, please refer to this.

  • Unable to connect to a secure wireless network - Event ID: 8002 Task Category: AcmConnection..., Event ID: 11006, Event ID: 11006

    Hi, 
    I have a Dell Latitude E6440 running Win 7
    Enterprise 64 on a domain. It will connect to any unsecured network, and it can see the secured network in the list when I click the wireless connection icon on the system tray. When I go to manage wireless networks, the secured network does not show
    up (and thus, I cannot delete the network to try to re-add it). Normally, we would add the secure network here. I click Add, give the name in the correct syntax, add the needed information (WPA/2-Enterprise, EAS or TKIP), and hit Next, it immediately returns
    with "An unexpected error occurred". A similar thing happens when I hit Connect from the list of available networks that pops up when I open the system tray icon: it says it was unable to connect, when I hit troubleshoot, it says that it could not
    identify the problem. The event log shows the error below. I haven't been able to find any resolutions here or elsewhere that address the fact that I can connect to unsecured wireless networks, but not secured wireless networks.
    Other notable troubleshooting steps:
    Uninstalled/Reinstalled wireless adapter with the latest driver
    Other laptops are able to access the same secure wireless network
    The first WLAN-AutoConfig error in the event log was Event ID: 12013, attempting a 802.1x authentication. Then Event ID: 11006; stating "Explicit Eap failure received". After a few days of alternating all 3 errors, they started to only error on
    Event ID 8002.

  • Dynamic select --hopefully simple question

    I have read alot of threads on doing a dynamic select. I am have no knowledge of AJAX so this is tough for me. I have looked at Denes and Carl's examples. I have one question and I hope its a simple one. I have two select lists. The second field is dependent on the input from the first box. I know we put a query that should bringin the on demand process but is this query the result for the second box or do I need to put the same query in the LOV box for the second field?
    For example, the first select list contains module names, based on the module name the user picks, the names in the module should populate the second select list. In the lov for the first select list, I have a query for the modules. In the on demand process, I have a query that takes uses the module name to look for the users, and in the the second select list, I have the query that does the same thing as the query in the on demand process. What do I put in the lov for the second select list.

    Nevermind, I downloaded firefox and was able to see what variable wasn't working...

  • Extreme & Express (hopefully) simple question

    Hi
    I've got an AEBS that I'm trying to connect to an Express to play iTunes on my stereo. Do I also need a PCI Airport card in my G4 to enable this feature?
    I thought the AEBS just plugged into the ethernet socket and acted like an external version of an internal Airport card. The Airport icon doesn't show up in the network connection or menu bar.
    Bit of a first timer in the whole wireless connection area, does it show? I guess there's a simple answer, help me people.
    Gaz

    I've got an AEBS that I'm trying to connect to an
    Express to play iTunes on my stereo. Do I also need a
    PCI Airport card in my G4 to enable this feature?
    No.
    I thought the AEBS just plugged into the ethernet
    socket and acted like an external version of an
    internal Airport card.
    You're perfectly right.
    Here is how your chain should be connected:<pre>
    Ethernet AirPort stereo cable
    Mac ======== AEBS ~~~~~~~ AX ------------ stereo</pre>
    The Airport icon doesn't show
    up in the network connection or menu bar.
    That's normal. You don't need an AirPort connection from
    your Mac to your AEBS. You may use the Ethernet connection.
    Your will have to configure your AEBS through your Ethernet
    connection.
    I advise you to carefully read your documentation about
    the way to make such a configuration.

  • (Hopefully Simple) Question - Launching Apps.

    So, this is probably an incredibly simple thing, but I have to ask...
    At some point, while using OmniGraffle, I did something that is now causing my initial "Create a Template" / "Open Existing File" to pop up on my 2nd monitor. This is driving me a little crazy and is interrupting my workflow.
    Any idea where I configure this preference so these types of menus start popping-up on my main monitor again?
    Thanks in advance.

    Close the app and check the Preferences folder in your user account. Toss whichever .plist file is obviously named for OmniGraffle. Don't delete the old .plist quite yet. If the issue doesn't change when you restart the app, then you can put the old file back instead of having to redo all of the application preferences to your liking.

  • Hopefully simple question on keywords.

    When I do a keyword search thru the drop down list  and I have for example 6 words checked off, how can I clear the checkmarks in one shot. I have a lot of keywords and sometimes forget to uncheck one . Thanks

    Un-checking then rechecking the checkbox to the left of the rule doesn't clear the selections made from among the keywords (as the OP puts it "clear the checkmarks in one shot") for me (3.4.5 on 10.8.5).  Did this change in Mavericks?
    No, it did not change.
    It disables the keywords temporarily and I add a second rule.  I do it sometimes, if I want to switch quickly between two sets of keyword selections and want to save the old selection.
    The option-click method is cool

    I saw a new BPM forum on our HPS Dev Site, I posted this question there so that we can discuss /answer/solve issues there.
    I am currently facing some issues in using Message throw event or Send task in my prototype model i am working on.
    References i used :
    Modeling and Implementation Guide for Oracle Business Section 19
    Platform:
    Orable BPM 11g/jdeveloper
    What i am trying to do here is i am trying to communicate with other BPMN processes. I saw from our Model guide we can either use Message Throw event or send and receive tasks to achieve this. But i see Message throw event can be used to invoke a synchronous or asynchronous BPMN process only through and interface like webservices. In my case , i want to just to start another task flow from another process. Can we use this without using webservices When i try to use Send Task to invoke another process i am not able to see the process name listed when i selected the properties , implementation tab.
    It would be great if anyone has any idea of ow to call or start another process from some other process.
    Thanks

    your SSIS package will have following flow
    1. Create a Execute SQL Task which will have the below query
    SELECT EmailAddress
    FROM Table2 t
    WHERE EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
    FROM table1
    WHERE ID = t.ID
    AND (TotalCount < Min
    OR TotalCount > Max)
    Use Resultset option as Full resultset and map the resultset EmailAddress to a object variable (@[User::EmailAddressList]) created in SSIS
    2. Use a ForEach Loop with ADO enumerator which points to above variable
    Inside a loop add a variable [@User::EMailAddress]) to get iterated values
    3. Add a Sent Mail task inside loop and set an expression for ToLine property to point to the variable [@User::EMailAddress] so that it sents email to email address specified.

  • Simple question - How do you make an onchange event occur in a select list

    Simple question - How do you make an onchange event occur in a select list to fire a process?
    Thanks

    1) Using ApEx Selec list on Submit Item.
    You will create a PL/SQL Process after Submit. -> Conditional Type Request = Expression1. -> Expression1 is the name of your Select List. Process Source - > Procedure you like. For example depending of your select List value you will add rows in different tables.
    2) Javascript This example will change a System parameter value when changed
    <select id="P3_SUBSYSTEM" onchange="location.href='f?p=101:3:2164422329953284::NO::P3_SUBSYSTEM:'+this.options[selectedIndex].value;" size="1" name="p_t21">

  • A very very very simple question

    Hi guys,
    I have a very simple question and standard but I cant find anywhere...
    I have two dateTime variables, i need to calculate difference between this dates in days, thats it.
    I tried all functions and tried without success a Java Embed task but I couldnt retrieve this objects as java.util.Date so I couldnt calculate exactly the difference in days like this pure java code:
    (dataVencimento.getTime() - dataReferencia.getTime()) / 86400000L)
    can you help me this?

    Hi Jose
    Just see if these alternate approaches works. I know there may be lot like this and you may be lucky to find out simple out of box solution itself. If you want to solve this issue and move ahead, gives these approaches a shot.
    1. Create a very simple standalone WebService that takes 2 input date elements (can be of Date type or String type. If string type, convert to date in your java code). Create a simple operation like getDaysBetween(firstDate, secondDate). In the generated webservice impl class, use the java code apis (refer earlier link for usage), and get the difference. Return this value. NOW, invoke this WebService in your BPEL Process, and pass your 2 inputs (if the bpel payload elemetns are date object or string objects of date), and get output, and then use this output in your continuing bpel process.
    2. This approach, I did a long back. When we insert any expression using XPath, in that editor window on bottom right side, we see many categories and for each category we see list of functions we can use, like for String, we can use concat etc. I vaguely remember reading somewhere, that we can add our own custom functions also in this section. So explore this direction and see if you can add your own function and then use that fucntion with your 2 input dates.
    I have not given solution to your problem, but may be these directions can help you move ahead. Or something along these lines.
    Thanks

  • Load Balancing Directory Servers with Access Manager - Simple questions

    Hi.
    We are in the process of configuring 2 Access Manager instances (servers) accessing the same logical LDAP repository (comprising physically of two Directory Servers working together with Multi-Master Replication configured and tested) For doing this, we are following guide number 819-6258.
    The guide uses BigIP load balancer for load balancing the directory servers. However, we intend to use Directory Proxy Server. Since we faced some (unresolved) issues last time that we used DPS, there are some simple questions that I would be very grateful to have answers to:
    1. The guide, in section 3.2.10 (To configure Access Manager 1 with the Directory Server load balancer), talks about making changes at 4 places, and replacing the existing entry (hostname and port) with the load balancer's hostname and port (assuming that the load balancer has already been configured). It says that changes need not be made on Access Manager 2 since the LDAPs are in replication, and hence changes will be replicated at all places. However, the guide also states that changes have to be made in two files, namely AMConfig.properties, and the serverconfig.xml file. But these changes will not be reflected on Access Manager 2, since these files are local on each machine.
    Question 1. Do changes have to be made in AMConfig.properties and serverconfig.xml files on the other machine hosting Access Manager 2?
    Question 2: What is the purpose of putting these values here? Specifically, what is achieved by specifying the Directory server host and port in AMConfig.properties, as well as in serverconfig.xml?
    Question 3. In the HTTP console, there is the option of specifying multiple primary LDAP servers, as well as multiple secondary LDAP servers. What is the purpose of these? Are secondary servers attempted when none of the list in the primary list are accessible? Also, if there are multiple entries in the primary server list, are they accessed in a round robin fashion (hereby providing rudimentary load balancing), or are other servers accessed only when the one mentioned first is not reachable etc.?
    2. Since I do not have a load balancer setup yet, I tried the following deviation to the above, which, according to me, should have worked. If viewed in the HTTP console, LDAP / Membership / MSISDN and Policy configuration all pointed to the DS on host 1. When I changed all these to point to the directory server on host 2 (and made AMConfig.properties and serverconfig.xml on host 1 point to DS of host 2 as well), things should have worked fine, but apparently Access manager 1 could not be started. Error from Webserver:
    [14/Aug/2006:04:30:36] info (13937): WEB0100: Loading web module in virtual server [https-machine_1_FQDN] at [search]

    [14/Aug/2006:04:31:48] warning (13937): CORE3283: stderr: ... 2 more
    In effect, AM on 1 did not start. On rolling back the changes, things again worked like previously.
    Will be really grateful for any help / insight / experience on dealing with the above.
    Thanks!

    Update to the above, incase anyone is reading:
    We setup a similar setup in Windows, and it worked. Here is a detailed account of what was done:
    1. Host 1: Start installer, install automatically, chose Directory server, Directory Administration server, Directory Proxy server, Web server, Access Manager.
    All installed, and worked fine. (AMConfig.properties, serverconfig.xml, and the info in LDAP service, all pointed to HOST1:389)
    2. Host 2: Start installer, install automatically, chose Directory server, Directory Administration server, Directory Proxy server, Web server, Access Manager.
    All installed, and worked fine. (AMConfig.properties, serverconfig.xml, and the info in LDAP service, all pointed to HOST2:389)
    3. Host 1: Started replication. Set to Master
    4. Host 2: Started replication. Set to Master
    5. Host 1: Setup replication agreement to Host 2
    6. Host 2: Setup replication agreement to Host 1
    7. Initiated the remote replica from Host 1 ----> Host 2
    Note that since default installation uses abc.....xyz as the encryption key, setting this to same was not an issue.
    9. Started webserver for Host 1 and logged into AM as amadmin.
    10. Added Host 2 FQDN in DNS Aliases / Realms
    11. Added http://HOST2_FQDN:80 in the Platform server (instance) list.
    12. Started Host 2 webserver. Logged in AM on Host 2, things worked fine.
    At this stage, note the following:
    a) Host 1:
    AMConfig.properties file has
    com.iplanet.am.directory.host=host1_FQDN
    and
    com.iplanet.am.directory.port=389
    serverconfig.xml has:
    <Server name="Server1" host="host1_FQDN" port="389" type="SIMPLE" />
    b) Host 2:
    AMConfig.properties file has
    com.iplanet.am.directory.host=host2_FQDN
    and
    com.iplanet.am.directory.port=389
    serverconfig.xml has:
    <Server name="Server1" host="host2_FQDN" port="389" type="SIMPLE" />
    c) If one logs into AM, and checks LDAP servers for LDAP / Policy Configuration / Membership etc services, they all contain Host2_FQDN:389 (which makes sense, since replica 2 was initialized from 1)
    Returning back to the configuations:
    13. On Host 1, login into the Admin server console of the Directory server. Navigate to the DPS, and confgure the following:
    a) Network Group
    b) LDAP servers
    c) Load Balancing
    d) Change Group
    e) Action on-bind
    f) Allow all actions (permit modification / deletion etc.).
    g) any other configuations required - Am willing to give detailed steps if someone needs them to help me / themselves! :)
    So now, we have DPS configured and running on Host1:489, and distributing load to DS1 and DS2 on a 50:50 basis.
    14. Now, log into AM on Host 1, and instead of Host1_fqdn:389 (for DS) in the following places, specify Host1_fqdn:489 (for the DPS)--
    LDAP Authentication
    MSISDN server
    Membership Service
    Policy configuation.
    Verified that this propagated to the Policy Configuration service and the LDAP authentication service that are already registered with the default organization.
    15. Log out of AM. Following the documentation, modify directory.host and directory.port in AMConfig.properties to point to Host 1_FQDN and 489 respectively. Make this change in AMConfig.properties of both Host 1 as well as 2.
    16. Edit serverconfig.xml on both hosts, and instead of they pointing to their local directory servers, point both to host1_FQDN:489
    17. When you start the webserver, it will refuse to start. Will spew errors such as:

    Success!
    The server https-host1_FQDN has started up.
    The server infact, didn't start up (nothing even listening on 58080).
    However, if AMConfig.properties is left as it originally was, and only serverconfig.xml files were changed as mentioned above, web servers started fine, and things worked all okay. (Alright, except for some glitches when viewed in /amconsole. If /amserver/console is accessed, all is good. Can this mean that all is still not well? I am not sure).
    So far so good. Now comes the sad part. When the same is done on Solaris 9, things dont work. You continue to get the above error, OR the following error, and the web server will refuse to start:
    Differences in Solaris and Windows are as follows:
    1. Windows hosts have 1 IP and hostname. Solaris hosts have 3 IPs and hostnames (for DS, DPS, and webserver).
    No other difference from an architectural perspective.
    Any help / insight on why the above is not working (and why the hell does the documentation seem so sketchy / insecure / incorrect).
    Thanks a bunch!
