How to avoid InfoPackage hang when there is no data

Hi,
My infoPackage hang which block the process chain when there is no data. I have set the Timeout time to a small value. But, it did not work.
Thanks,

Hi Frank,
In the data load monitor > Menu Settings > Evaluation of requests (traffic lights) > what option is selected for "If no data is available in the system"...

Is there a way to read TCPIP data so that it doesn't hang when there is no data present?

Hi,
I've got a loop in my code that uses a TCP read function. My problem is that the loop hangs if there is no data available. What I would like to do is check if there is data available, then do the read otherwise move on to the rest of the code if no data is available and then try again on the next loop.
Thanks,
Ryan

In addition to using a non-standard timeout, such as 100ms or so, one can also play with the Read Mode input of the TCP Read. Those modes are a bit pesky and not always trivial to understand but they can be useful. Read the documentation to the TCP Read function that explains these modes a bit and then start to make small experiments to verify your understanding of those operations.

How to find port number , when there will be different instance number ?

In case of portal url,
port number is 50000 for default instance number 00.
how to find port number , when there will be different instance number , instead of 00?
Thanks

Hi
You can find the port number by your instance number as follows:
There is a general format for the port number like you have mentioned.
For 00 instance the port number is 50000.
The general format for the port number goes like this:
5<instance_no>00
If your instance number is 01 then the port number would be 50100.
It depends on the installation type which you perform.
You can also change the instance number during the installation but normally you dont do this.
If you have many components or units installed on your system you may have more than one instance in that case it may go like this 00, 01, 02....accordingly port number will be 50000, 50100, 50200...resp.
Hope this solves your doubt.
If you need some more clarification please lemme know.

How to avoid the dialogue when converting from context menu

This is a follow-up to http://forums.adobe.com/message/2016146#443364 which was locked due to a bug.
i would like to know how i can avoid the 'save as' dialogue when using the context menu to convert a word file to pdf using windows XP/acrobat 8/word 2007.
so far, it always prompts me for the filename, which is annoying as it does not allow me to batch-convert several files and let the thing run its course.
the solution provided by Steve in the other thread does not work - even if the plugin from word does not propt for a filename, it still does when triggered from explorer/context menu.
so back to square one: how to avoid that dialogue when not opening word at all?
cheers, thanks for any help. michael

How to avoid launching Labview when invoking VI by Teststand

Hi, friends.
I'm a learner of teststand. I wrote some VIs by Labview. Now I want to invoke them in teststand environment. But when I run the sequence. Labview will be automatically launched. How to avoid launching Labview when I run the sequence?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm not sure that I follow what you are saying.. But it sounds like when the VI is called, the LabVIEW development software is started and you want to avoid that.
If you create an executable or dll and call that from within TestStand, it should not call the development environment. You would need to have the LabVIEW run-time engine installed on the target PC.
It has been many years since I've used TestStand with LV, so my memory may not be accurate. I think the above had worked for me. However, it seems that I recall something about having the LV code in debug mode causing it to open the development environment.... but it's a distant memory. You're not using breakpoints where the LV VI is being called, are you?

Hi Srini,
Now I am running into another problem. When there is no detail data it displays 'No data found' as expected in the report output. But is there any way to restrict the print option (avoid wasting the paper) to just display 'No data found' in the output but not to print the output only in this case.
I really appreciate any help!

Displaying zero values when there was no data

There are two columns 'A' and 'B' in the report which has some values.IF there was no data in the report,it shows the following system message
+"No Results+
+ The specified criteria didn't result in any data. This is often caused by applying filters that are too restrictive or that contain incorrect values. Please check your Request Filters and try again. The filters currently being applied are shown below."+
My requirement was to shows the zero values instead of this message in the table format and should show the chart at 0 axis.
Please give me your inputs and help me finding the solution
Thanks in Advance.

Because a report with no records will not produce a record "with zeroes," you have to think of another way to let the client know that the report was produced successfully, but simply with no data. We faced this issue with auditing. If no report shows, how does the auditor know that there were no data rather than the report itself not working that day? So what I did is build a "NIL Report." It is a simple report that consists of two columns. The first column is the system date column. The second column is column in which in the fx button (edit formula), I put in a text like "There are no records for this day." The first column serves two purposes: one, to timestamp the report so the user knows what day the 'NIL Report" was generated, and two, to serve as a column because OBI requires at least one column for the report to run.
I also added a footer to the report which had the name of the original report in the left pane and the run date in the right pane. The Title View also contains the name of the original report. Now when viewed, this report has all the essentials to indicate to the user that 1) the report ran successfully; 2) the title of the original report so the client knows which report is associated with the "NIL Report"; and 3) the date the report was run to timestamp the report.
So in one of the two sections, in the Section>Properties, you will use the guid. nav. feature of the section to look at the ORIGINAL report, but this section will have the "If request returns nothing" checkbox" checked off. Put the "NIL Report" in this section. When the original report produces no records, this section will display so the client knows that there were no records.
This is what I mean by a "meaningful report" -- a report that conveys the necessary information to let the user know what is going on. There is no way (that I know) where you can have the original report display "zeroes" when in fact there are no records at all.

Header Fields are not displayed when there is no data in the report

Hi,
I am having this strange situation in my webi report.
When I refresh my report and when there is no data, column names are not being displayed in my report. All it is showing is two empty rows. When I have data, then report is displaying data along with column headings.
Please suggest me where I am going wrong.
Thanks,
VenMen

Thanks for the update.
Can you try this.
Run the report first time for some data.
When the report is rendered select the table that is displayed.
On the left pane side properties tab.
Expand display and check all the options
Show rows with empty measures
show rows with empty dimensions
Show when empty
Hope this will help

I have created a form with four tab pages. Namely "EXPENSE" , "AMOUNT_DETAILS", "SUPPLIER" , "ACCOUNT".
When i enter a data in page 1 ie Expense and move to next page page2 "AMOUNT_DETAILS", and enters data in page3 "SUPPLIER" and when i come back to page1 "EXPENSE" and also Page2 "AMOUNT" the data get cleared in Tab pages. There is no data again i need to enter the data manually.
Can any one suggest me how to avoid this clear data.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
Thanks once again for your quick response.

How to avoid shared locks when validating foreign keys?

I have a table with a FK and I want to update a row in that table without being blocked by another transaction which is updating the parent row at the same time. Here is an example:
CREATE TABLE dbo.ParentTable
PARENT_ID int NOT NULL,
VALUE varchar(128) NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_ParentTable PRIMARY KEY (PARENT_ID)
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.ChildTable
CHILD_ID int NOT NULL,
PARENT_ID INT NULL,
VALUE varchar(128) NULL,
CONSTRAINT PK_ChildTable PRIMARY KEY (CHILD_ID),
CONSTRAINT FK_ChildTable__ParentTable FOREIGN KEY (PARENT_ID)
REFERENCES dbo.ParentTable (PARENT_ID)
GO
INSERT INTO ParentTable(PARENT_ID, VALUE)
VALUES (1, 'Some value');
INSERT INTO ChildTable(CHILD_ID, PARENT_ID, VALUE)
VALUES (1, 1, 'Some value');
GO
Now I have 2 transactions running at the same time:
The first transaction:
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED;BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE ParentTable
SET VALUE = 'Test'
WHERE PARENT_ID = 1;
The second transaction:
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED;BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE ChildTable
SET VALUE = 'Test',
PARENT_ID = 1
WHERE CHILD_ID = 1;
If 'UPDATE ParentTable' statement runs a bit earlier, then 'UPDATE ChildTable' statement is blocked untill the first transaction is committed or rollbacked. It happens because SQL Server acquires shared locks when validating foreign keys, even
if the transaction is using read uncommitted, read committed snapshot (read committed using row versioning) or snapshot isolation level. I cannot see why change in the ParentTable.VALUE should prevent me from updating ChildTable. Please note that ParentTable.PARENT_ID
is not changed by the first transaction, which means that from FK's point of view whatevere is set to the ParentTable.VALUE is never a problem for referential integrity. So, such blocking behavior seems to me not logical. Furthermore, it contradicts to the
MSDN:
Transactions running at the READ UNCOMMITTED level do not issue shared locks to prevent other transactions from modifying data read by the current transaction. READ UNCOMMITTED transactions are also not blocked by exclusive locks that would prevent the
current transaction from reading rows that have been modified but not committed by other transactions.
Does anybody know how to workaround the issue? In other words, are there any tricks to avoid shared locks when validating foreign keys? (Disabling FK is not an option.) Thank you.
Alexey

If you change the primary key of the parent table to be nonclustered, there is no blocking.
Indeed, when I update ParentTable.VALUE, then:
in case of PK_ParentTable is clustered, a particular row in the clustered index is locked (request_mode:X, resource_type: KEY)
in case of PK_ParentTable is non-clustered, a particular physical row in the heap is locked (request_mode:X, resource_type: RID).
and when I update ChildTable.PARENT_ID, then:
in case of PK_ParentTable is clustered, this index is used to verify referential integrity:
in case of PK_ParentTable is non-clustered, again this index is used to verify referential integrity, but this time it is not locked:
It is important to note that in both cases SQL Server acquires shared locks when validating foreign keys. The principal difference is that in case of clustered PK_ParentTable the request is blocked, while for non-clustered index it is granted.
Thank you, Erland for the idea and explanations.
The only thing that upsets me is that this solution cannot be applied, because I don't want to convert PK_ParentTable from clustered to non-clustered just to avoid blocking issues. It is a pity that SQL Server is not smart enough to realize that:
ParentTable.PARENT_ID is not changed and, as a result, should not be locked
ChildTable.PARENT_ID is not actually changed either (old value in my example is 1 and the new value is also 1) and, as a result, there is no need at all for validating the foreign key.
In fact, the problem I described is just a tip of the iceberg. The real challenge is that I have deadlocks because of the FK validation. In reality, the first transaction has an additional statement which updates ChildTable:
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED;
BEGIN TRAN
UPDATE ParentTable
SET VALUE = 'Test'
WHERE PARENT_ID = 1;
UPDATE ChildTable
SET VALUE = 'Test'
WHERE PARENT_ID = 1;
The result is famous message:
Msg 1205, Level 13, State 51, Line xx
Transaction (Process ID xx) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.
I know that if I change the order of the two statements, it will solve the deadlock issue. But let's imagine I cannot do it. What are the other options?

HFM: How to restrict user to generate reports when there is a data load process going on?

Hi Experts,
I want to get some idea on how we can restrict one user of generating report when another user is loading the data for the same entity, assuming both the users were at different location and there is no communication between them.
i am dealing same kind of problem in HFM. we have many users created, some users will be loading the data using FDMEE while some users will be generating the reports. the problem arises when one user is loading the data for a particular entity and at the same time another generates the report for the same entity. this shows wrong data in the reports as the data's were not updated.
please suggest how we can come out of this problem.
Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions.

I thought for a while that I could solve the problem creating a parameter in the main report and casting the first argument of my subreportprocesssing event handler to LocalReport and setting the parameter using the SetParameters method of the LocalReport
object indicating when there was data to show or not. But this doesn't worked , the parameter value remains the same when I use it in expressions to change the visibility property of my subreports.
