How Do You Re-Start CF Admin? / Service Stopped, Won't Re-Start

CF Admin suddently stopped, and won't re-start.  Have been using CF9 on Win7/x64 for months with no problems.  Was trying to install a Teradata JDBC driver.  After copying the .jar file to the C:\ColdFusion9\lib folder, I went into Services and tried to STOP and RE-START the Cold Fusion Application Server.  While Windows was trying to stop the service, got an error that it was unable to stop the service, and it locked up.  Unable to stop or start service.
After re-booting PC, Services showed all CF services started normally, but can't run CF Admin, and can't access any data sources or run any .CFM programs.  It appears to be stuck.  I tried stopping and re-starting all ColdFusion services, which stopped and re-started fine, but still get error when trying to run CF Admin.  Appears something is hung-up.  Appreciate any advice on how to get the service re-started.  Can't run any .CFM programs as all DSNs are unavailable.  Below is error message when trying to access CF Admin:
Error Occurred While Processing Request 
The DataSource service is not available. 
This exception is usually caused by service startup failure. Check your server configuration. 
The error occurred in Application.cfm: line 88
Called from Application.cfm: line 76

Thank you,

Thank you for taking the time to reply.  Actually, thanks to some Google-ing, was able to find and fix the problem.  The problem began when I tried to install and verify a Teradata JDBC driver.  When I tried to stop and re-start the service, it locked up.  Then would not start again. 
I discovered the SERVER.LOG file should tell you exactly what the error is, and it did.  It showed an invalid character in 4 places in the neo-datasource.xml file (in the C:\ColdFusion9\lib folder).  So my options were to either remove the invalid characters, or replace the neo-datasource.xml file with the last good working backup.
When this file goes corrupt, the .BAK version is used, and then it goes corrupt when you try to stop-restart the service, and you're left with no backup (.BAK) file. Fortunately, I had another working version of the file on another computer (configured same as this one).  So I copied it to my computer, and replaced the bad one, then re-booted (could have stopped and re-started the service, but decided to re-boot, which does the same thing).
The CF Admin started normally.  I was then able to correctly install the Teradata JDBC driver.  The cause of the problem was that I had failed to also list the tdgssconfig.jar file in the JVM section of CF Admin (even though the instructions I had said the Class 4 driver did not require this file, and that CF would ignore it).  But apparently, it is needed.
Anyway, after all this, the Teradata JDBC drivers verified successfully.  My CF test server is now connecting with the corporate data warehouse in Houston, over 1,000 miles away, using the newly installed JDBC drivers.  And queries and .CFM files are running normally.  Thank goodness.
Anyway, thanks again for the reply.  Much appreciated.  If anyone else has a problem getting CF Admin to start, after tinkering with installing new DSNs, remember to ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP of your neo-datasource.xml file before you begin.  Better safe than sorry.  Regards,
Gary

    Hi gurus
    How do you Debug start routine?
    Thanks in advance
    Raj

    By inserting a BREAK statement in the routine you won't be able to debugg as the upload process is done in background.
    Instead you should insert a code like this:
    data flag.
    while flag ne 'X'. endwhile.
    Then launch the process and go to transaction SM50 select the process and execute Program/Mode -> Program -> Debugging

    so i could delete what i didn't want, how do you re start them in background tasks?

    First, I'd recommend you contact iAd support as they may be able to help resolve some of your issues.
    Regarding Blueprints vs. custom, you could start with a Blueprint, fill in every part you care about, ensure there are no validation errors reported by iAd Producer (Inspector sidebar), File > Convert to Normal Project, then delete any unused pages and banners.
    While I haven't used Workbench, in looking at the available ad types documented in the help (http://help.apple.com/iadworkbench/mac/2.0/#slvbb8575343), why not use the "Banner ad that plays a video with iTunes Store or App Store call to action" or "Banner ad that goes to iTunes Store or App Store product page"?

  • HOW DO YOU FEEL TOTALLY ABOUT VERIZON SERVICE...PERIOD

    DISAPPOINTED IN THIS HOME CONNECT AND VERIZON SERVICES.  MY FATHER HAS HAD VERIZON SERVICE RESIDENTIAL (LANDLINE) FOR YEARS.  HE DECIDED TO GET A CELL PHONE.  WE WERE (SUCK IN) TALKED IN BY A WIRELESS REPRESENTATIVE PERTAINING THE LANDLINE PHONE FOR A BETTER DEAL UPON PURCHASING THE CELL PHONE.   WE DECIDED TO CONTINUE TO KEEP THE NUMBER TO THE LANDLINE PHONE.  SINCE RECEIVING THE HOME CONNECT....WE HAVE HAD A GREAT DEAL OF BAD EXPERIENCES WITH THE HOME CONNECT TO THE LANDLINE.  WE WENT TO PURCHASE A NEW PHONE FOR THE LANDLINE PHONE.  WE ARE NOT PURCHASING THE HOME CONNECT BOX TOTALLY.  THE CELL PHONE WAS FREE WITH 2 YEAR CONTRACT AND WE ARE SUPPOSE TO HAVE (2) SEPARATE LINES.  ONE FOR THE LANDLINE AND THEN ONE FOR THE CELL NUMBER.  IT APPEARS THAT THE REPRESENTATIVES AT VERIZON ARE DENSE ABOUT THIS SITUATION.  THEY DECIDED TO PUT OUR LANDLINE PHONE SERVICE UNDER WIRELESS AFTER WE HAVE BEEN WITH VERIZON RESIDENTIAL WITH THIS SAME NUMBER FOR YEARS.  THEREFORE, WE ALREADY HAD A LINE WITH VERIZON RESIDENTIAL.  HOWEVER, BECAUSE THEY DECIDED TO PUT US UNDER THE VERIZON WIRELESS WITH THE LANDLINE PHONE AND CELL PHONE BECAUSE OF THE HOME CONNECT.  THE BILL WE HAD WITH VERIZON RESIDENTIAL PERTAINING TO THE SAME LANDLINE PHONE WITH HOME CONNECT WAS PAID.  THEY ARE TELLING US WE HAVE TO PAID TO ACTIVATION FEE SEPARATELY ALTHOUGH WE HAD A LANDLINE WITH VERIZON WIRELESS.  ALSO, THE AMOUNT THEY ARE CHARGING FOR THE VERIZON WIRELESS HOME CONNECT LANDLINE IS NOT UNDERSTANDABLE.  WHY?!?!? BECAUSE WE JUST PAID FOR THE BILL TO THE SAME LANDLINE SERVICE WITH VERIZON WIRELESS.  THEN THEY MISSPELLED OUR LAST NAME FOR THE VERIZON WIRELESS BILL TO WHICH THEY ARE CHARGING FOR THE LANDLINE SERVICE AGAIN  UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNT USE FOR THE CELL PHONE.  IN A MONTH TIME VERIZON WANTS US TO PAY ADDITIONAL $100.00 FOR THE LANDLINE SERVICE UNDER THE VERIZON WIRELESS AFTER PAYING BEFORE THE BILL DUE ON JULY 12 2014 WITH VERIZON RESIDENTIAL.  THIS MEANS WE ARE PAYING ALMOST $200.00 FOR THE LANDLINE SERVICE FOR VERIZON WIRELESS AND VERIZON RESIDENTIAL.  THEN THE SERVICE WITH THE VERIZON WIRELESS FOR THE LANDLINE SERVICE USING THE HOME CONNECT BOX IS SAD, PATHETIC AND DISGUSTING.  THE SERVICE IS AS THOUGH THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT IS BEING USED AS A MOBILE PHONE IN LIEU OF A LANDLINE PHONE.  WE GET RESPONSE ON THE LANDLINE  SUCH AS TEXTING, ETC. HOW CAN YOU DO THIS WITH A CORDED LANDLINE PHONE.  ALSO, IN ADDITION TO THE EXTRA $100.00 FOR THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT WITH VERIZON WIRELESS AND ALSO WANTS US TO PAY ALMOST $100.00 FOR THE CELL PHONE TO WHICH THE PHONE ITSELF IS FREE!  WE NEVER HAD TO PAY FOR CALLER ID TO BE DISPLAY ON THE LANDLINE PHONE BECAUSE IT WAS PART OF THE VERIZON RESIDENTIAL SERVICE.  WE ONLY ASKED THAT THE SAME SERVICE WE HAD WITH VERIZON RESIDENTIAL.  OH!!!! PLEASE ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN THIS.  WE DISCUSSING THIS SITUATION WITH VERIZON WIRELESS TO WHICH BOTH SERVICE IS (NOW!!!!) UNDER VERIZON WIRELESS UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNT NUMBER...IT ALWAYS APPEARS THESE REPRESENTATIVES CAN NEVER, NEVER LOOK AT THE HOME CONNECT LANDLINE ACCOUNT UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNT NUMBER WITH THE CELL PHONE.  OH!!!!! THE TELEPHONES NUMBERS ARE DIFFERENT FOR EACH.  WE CONTINUE TO KEEP THE SAME NUMBER FOR THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT.  THE REPRESENTATIVES/VERIZON WIRELESS IS CARRYING THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT AS IF IT IS A MOBILE/CELL PHONE WITH A HOME CONNECT DEVICE.  RIDICULOUS, SAD, PATHETIC AND DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!  THE LANDLINE PHONE IS NOT A MOBILE/CELL PHONE.  THE OPERATIVE WORD IS "LANDLINE" WHICH MEANS A CORDED PHONE WITH ADDITIONAL CORDLESS PHONE.  I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS MEANS A CELL PHONE WHICH IS MOBILE.  THEY WANT US TO PAY ADDITIONAL $100.00 FOR THE LANDLINE PHONE WHICH IS NOT MOBILE AND $100.00 FOR THE CELL PHONE.  THE BILL WILL BE NORMALLY UNDER $100.00 FOR BOTH SERVICES.  I DO UNDERSTAND THE ACTIVATION FEE FOR THE CELL PHONE AND EVEN FOR THE LANDLINE SERVICE BUT AGAIN THE BILL WILL BE LESS THAN $200.00 PAYING THESE FEES.  ALSO, THE SERVICE ONLINE TO CHAT IS PATHETIC AS WELL.  WE TOLD THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THE BILL FOR THE LANDLINE PHONE UNDER VERIZON RESIDENTIAL WILL BE PAID ON JULY 2, 2014 IN THE AMOUNT FOR ALMOST A $100.00.  HOWEVER, VERIZON CONTINUE TO BILL US AFTER PAYING THIS AS IF THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE PAYMENT ON JULY 2, 2014 FOR VERIZON RESIDENTIAL.  WE WERE SENT ANOTHER DEVICE AND RECEIVED ON JULY 17,2014.  WE SENT THE OLD DEVICE BACK ON 7/18/2014.   SOMETIMES WE BELIEVE VERIZON WIRELESS IS MESSING WITH OUR SERVICE ON THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT.  WE CONTINUE TO GET A CLICKING SOUND BEFORE ANYONE RESPONDS TO OUR HELLO BY THE TIME THE CLICKING STOP THAT PERSON HAS HUNG UP.  WE GET RESPONSES AFTER DIALING A NUMBER ON THE LANDLINE FROM A REPRESENTATIVE TELLING US THE CALL DID NOT GO THROUGH...IT IS PATHETIC AND DISGUSTING.  THE SERVICE SUCKS WITH VERIZON WIRELESS PERTAINING TO CUSTOMER SERVICE, ETC.  THEN WE YOU TRIES TO EXPLAIN...THE REPRESENTATIVE WITH WIRELESS CONTINUE TO SAY WE CAN NOT REVIEW THE SERVICE WITH RESIDENTIAL TO WHICH WE DO NOT HAVE OR PROBABLY DON'T HAVE AN ACCOUNT ANY LONGER BECAUSE IT IS UNDER TO DIFFERENT NAMES MAINLY BECAUSE VERIZON WIRELESS HAS MISSPELLED.  WE ARE TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER HOWEVER, TO NO AVAIL IT APPEARS THE VERIZON WIRELESS AND VERIZON RESIDENTIAL IS JUST AS BAD OF SERVICE AS WE ARE GETTING WITH THE SERVICE USING THE LANDLINE AT HOME.  THE LANDLINE CAN NOT BE A MOBILE AS THE SAME WAY THE CELL/MOBILE PHONE.  AGAIN, THEY ARE TREATING THE LANDLINE HOME CONNECT AS IF THE PHONE BEING USED IS A CELL PHONE AND IT IS NOT.

    Also...
    3. Because you're no longer with Verizon Residential you will have different billing with Verizon Wireless. That includes an activation fee when you create new lines of service as well as being billed one month in advance. This would reflect on the very first statement you received from Verizon Wireless.
    4. If your cell phone and Home Phone Connect are showing on two different accounts, one line may have been placed on a sub-account. If you wish you can request that the two numbers be consolidated onto one account.
    The next time you post, it would be easier to understand what you wrote if you would not type in all CAPS AND separate your individual concerns into paragraphs.
    Thank You.

  • How can you repair a MacBook air when it won't start properly?

    My MacBook Air is just over 3 years old and thus out of warranty.
    It gives a message that says the Preference Pane cannot be opened. Mostly the screen is black but sometimes (oddly) Adobe Bridge has a window ... but I cannot move to any other application.
    1) is Genius Bar only available if your product is under warranty?
    2) is there no way to check it? No recovery shows up when I option-restart.
    Advice would be appreciated. the closest Apple store is an hour away.

    Backup your files. If you have a 2010 model that came with a set of two software discs then do the following:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. If you wish to upgrade to a later version of OS X, then do so on the App Store.
    If you have the 2011 model then do this:
    Install or Reinstall Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion, or Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using the "pass" yesterday and itunes is downloading24 episodes (a double order).  How do i stop it? How do you talk to a customer service person?

    I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using a "pass" yesterday and today Itunes is downloading 24 episodes (a double order).  How do I stop it?
    Did I order twice by mistake?  How do I contact an itunes customer service person?

    If you ordered it in HD, then you get the SD version as well ( for viewing on ipod/iphone).
    You cannot stop it.  There is no phone number to call.
    You can click "Support" at the top if this page and click the link under "Contact Us" to contact them.
    You can look at your purchase history to see what you were billed for, but I would guess that you are seeing the HD and SD version as you should.

  • How do you market your database backup services?

    All database-driven sites need to be backed up at least weekly if not daily. How do you market this service to your customers? I personally prefer to back up daily because if the client screws up something they will naturally expect it to be easily fixed.
    Do you include this as an option in the hosting plan? How do you price it? As an ongoing subscription or a single payment? Personally I don't want to go through the trouble of scheduling cron jobs or configuring a backup extension without getting paid for it...

    What, you're prepared to back up a sites database on a daily basis for $100 dollars a year? Is it worth it. I agree though a database should be backed up regularly but I don't know whose responsibility that should be. If the client is prepared to pay an agreed fee for it then I guess it's ok but surely more than $100 a year. I would set the fee high to deter them from making me responsible. Just give them access to the control panel and then it becomes their worry and not yours.
    Good hosts will be making daily back-ups anyway so one would hope that if one of their servers fails the information is backed up on another server preferably in another building in case of fire damage.

  • How do you remove partner as admin use from client's website?

    Hi Guys,
    Can any one advice me on how to remove ourselves (partner) as admin from a client's website in V3 so that we would stop receiving all their system emails etc?
    On the older admin it was simple case of going to the users section under admin and removing the partner user.
    Thanks in advance.

    For us its not so much about removing ourselves from User roles - yes, QED - but its more important to have the control and also provide a level of invisibility if needed. BC support can remove us quickly and add us back in, but that means I either have to log a ticket (and in the last 6 months none of my tickets have had responses sooner than 2-3 days! ...so I don't bother any more), OR wait 15-20 minutes in the queue for a live chat plus however long it then takes them to complete.
    If we don't have that instant control and one of our resellers, or indeed a client, calls us to make a quick intervention, we'd like the control to add ourselves back in at an instant, do the work and get out again. That is the real need and issue. The fact that BC have removed an option that was useful is certainly not helpful or progress in my opinion.

  • How can you automatically start the next Podcast?

    When an audiobook finishes, the next audiobook automatically. How can I get podcasts to do the same? I listen on bike rides and it is difficult to have to switch to the next podcast.
      Windows XP  

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    2 options (neither of which are particularly great)
    First - drag the relevant podcasts into a playlist in iTunes, sync your iPod and then off you go!
    Second - Create an on the go playlist of the relveant episodes on your iPod.
    I think the thinking behind this is that Apple assume people only have one podcast at a time to listen to i.e. one a day/ week etc. You are right though, it would be nice just to have a preference to set to do what you want.
    You should leave your feedback here:

  • How do you get apps into location services?

    Location services only shows camera, siri, and weather. My wife's phone shows over 20 apps in location services, which I also have the same apps loaded on my phone, and they do not appear in my Location Services in Settings but they do in hers. This prevents Notifications on these apps.

    What version of the operating system, iOS, have you got on the iPod and iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and what minimum version do the apps require ? If, for example, the app needs iOS 5 but you only have version 4.3 on the iPod, then it won't download onto the iPod. Also some apps only work on the iPad (e.g. they need the iPad's larger screen) so they also won't download on an iPod. An app's requirements are listed on the left-hand side of their description page in the store.
    I also assume that the device which the apps aren't downloading on is also connected to a network ?

  • How do you get started?

    Ok. I am drawing a blank here. What exactly do you do to get started on making a book? The part I don't get is the tutorial says to select the photos you want for the book first. Well, what if the photos you want are all over the place in many different projects? Is there not a way to consolidate all the photos you want first into one project or something? But can't photos only be in one project at a time? I am a bit confused.

    You can make a smart album and specify the parameters of the pictures you want.
    It can be as simple as flagging the pictures (if not using that option already) and then having all flagged pictures go to the smart album. Then you can just click the top corner of the pictures you want to use and they will all be ready to go in the album when you want to make your book.
    Or you can do the same thing with star rankings.
    Or just drag the pictures into a new album one by one from each project.
    Remember that pictures can exist in any number of albums/smart albums, but only one project.
