How to open RAC node2 usng spfile which will stay in ASM disk?

Hi,
I have installed oracle 11g r2 rac with asm in two nodes. OS is hp-Unix.
I have installed oracle11g Active Data Guard using Single alone Database.
Both RAc and Active Data Guard works fine.
I have not configure Data Guard Broker.
N.B Rac node1 is running using spfile which is in ASM disk (+DATA/spfiledcpdb.ora) but node2 is running using pfile.
Question: how to open node 2 using spfile which will stay in ASM disk like node 1?
Thanks

Modify your PFILE to specify only IFILE='location_of_spfile'
OR
use STARTUP PFILE='location_of_spfile'
Ensure that the spfile does have the 2nd instance specific parameters defined correctly.

Starting database with spfile which is stored on ASM (11.2.0.2)

Hi guys,
I am trying to startup database with spfile which is stored on ASM. when i tried to startup it says no file in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs.
so created a symbolic link from $ORACLE_HOME/dbs pointing it to ASM spfile. I know we can have acopy in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs..which i dont want.
Thanx guys

Check above link.
Initialization Files and Oracle Automatic Storage Management: A database that uses Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM) usually has a nondefault SPFILE. If you use the Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) to configure a database to use Oracle ASM, DBCA creates an SPFILE for the database instance in an Oracle ASM disk group, and then causes a text initialization parameter file (PFILE) to be created in the default location in the local file system to point to the SPFILE, as explained in the next section.
Check this link to use SPFILE parameter:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25494/start001.htm#CIHDFJGC
I think the preference while starting up instance is at $ORACLE_HOME/dbs:
spfile<sid>.ora
spfile.ora
init<sid>.ora

Firefox keep asking to open or save pdf files which are already in my disk.

Hi all,
Firefox build in function to open pdf files was working ok.
Lately when i try to open a .PDF file which is already in my disk i get a window asking me :
"What should firefox do with this file?
-Open with (firefox default)
-Save the file"
Since the .PDF is already in my disk , i want to open it but firefox keeps asking in that window so i have to cancel and a new blank tab stays there.
What should i do to open the .PDF file?
BTW,i tried to delete the mimetypes.rdf file as read on a message here in order to Reset download actions but in vain.
Thank you for your time reading this.

Hi cor-el,
I used your suggestions and i have the below results:
1.
"''You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications''"
This is not satisfactory because i don't want to use it.I just want the internal viewer for PDF's of Firefox.
2.
''"You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to disable the build-in PDF viewer."''
I set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true and after firefox restart it kept opening empty tabs (weird)
3.
''"You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu."''
I did that and just keeps me asking in new tabs what to do with pdf (open or save)
Then i thought maybe another addon conflicted with firefox PDF viewer so i started it in safe mode.Tried to open a pdf and started to open empty tabs...
Finally i installed [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/pdfjs/ this] addon and pdf open ok now.
Still i had to use an addon to make them open.
It was running correctly with out add on.
Is there something else to try since i dont want addon?
Firefox pdf internal viewer was very satisfactory for me...
Thank you for your time reading this.

How To Add scrollbar in Spark list which will work on mouse movement ?

Hi,
I want to add scrollbar in Spark list which will work on mouse movement, i.e instead scrolling down it will sense mouse position and scroll automatically. I could not find a way to handle this with horizontalLayout.
I tried hovering on list and setting ensureIndexIsVisible(index) but hovering element index is not present in the Spark List.
Any idea on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

How do I create on-line PDFs which will read them to visually impared customers?

I have seen a handful of unanswered questions about getting Adobe Reader to read aloud, on-line or downloaded PDF content to people who are visually impaired. None of them seem to answer the questions about Acrobat X.1 or backward compatibility. Before I spend $45 for one chapter from a book, perhaps one of you experts know of a simple site which explains how to comply with the ADA Americans with Disabilities’ Act.
I know there are many variables like OS, Reader version and user ability to enable their sound card and configure a few settings.
This summary is excerpted from chapter 23 of The Acrobat X PDFBible by Ted Padova, published by Wiley. Follow the link further below to download the complete 16-page sample chapter. Adobe Acrobat is compliant with U.S. federal code regulating document accessibility for vision- and motion-challenged persons. This means that screen readers can intelligently interpret the PDFs you create; in other
words, PDF files can be read aloud in a reading order as a sighted person would read a document. Through an extensive set of keyboard shortcuts available in Acrobat, almost anyone with vision or motion challenges can share your documents and read them. In order for a document to be accessible, you must use authoring applications capable of delivering a document's structure to Acrobat. You need to know something about the internal structure of documents and which programs to use to create the structure required by Acrobat to make a document accessible. Not all the content in a document travels through the PDF-creation process with the information necessary to make a document completely accessible. Therefore, you need to perform some work in Acrobat to either add accessibility or to polish up a document for delivery to a screen reader in a form that makes sense to the user.
In chapter 23 of The Acrobat X PDF Bible, you will learn how to check documents for tags and accessibility, add additional tags and arranger eading orders. Topics covered include:
Using screen readers can interpret accessible PDF files and create audio output for people with vision and motion challenges. Using Adobe PDFMaker for Microsoft products, version 2000 or higher, including Word, Excel, Visio and so on; Adobe PageMaker 7 and higher; and Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe LiveCycle Designer, Adobe InDesign 2.0 and higher are capable of creating tagged and accessible PDF forms. Adding tags to PDF documents from a menu command within Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended. Checking files for accessibility with the Quick Check command in Adobe Reader, Acrobat Standard, and Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended or with a Full Check in Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended. Tagging documents so they contain a structure tree. Elements in the tree locate respective elements in the document if you enable the Highlight Content menu command. Adding alternate text to elements in Acrobat by addressing the element's properties. http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470612916.html
Thanks if you know something helpful

An accessible PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF.
You start with the proper authoring application that has tag management (there are not that many - discussed below).
Your Tagged output PDF must be post-processed with Acrobat Pro.
You evaluate the post-processed PDF.
If satisfactory, you deploy the well-formed Tagged PDF.
Adobe Reader or Acrobat (from 8.x forward) both provide the read out loud feature (ROL).
While this is not equivalent to a full assistive technology (AT) application it can be useful for simpler narrative content.
However, PDF page content consists of graphic objects (text included) that are painted to the page in a sequence/order that is "machine" centric rather than human centric.
So, the raw print stream's read order can jump around.
(Look over ISO 32000-1 Forward paragraph 2 & Sections 8.1 & 8.2 to get a feel for what "PDF" is (& isn't).)
PDF became an ISO Standard in 2008. This is currently ISO 32000-1. ISO 32000-2 is expected to be out in 2012.
In terms of accessible PDF, ISO 14289-1 is expected to be out in 2012.
ISO 14289 will define/describe the requirements for accessible PDF.
Adobe introduced "Tagged PDF" with Acrobat 5.x (PDF version 1.4) "Full" release.
For Acrobat 5.x this was an add-on that you took from the install CD-ROM.
Since then "Tag" creation, management, etc. has been included with the install of:
(n.b., PDFMaker provides "tag management")
--| Acrobat 6.x Pro (PDF version 1.5)
--| Acrobat 7.x Pro & 3D (PDF version 1.6)
--| Acrobat 8.x Pro & 3D (PDF version 1.7)
--| Acrobat 9.x Pro & Extended (ISO 32000 & Adobe Supplement BaseVersion 1.7, ExtensionLevel 3)
--| Acrobat X Pro (ISO 32000 & Adobe Supplement BaseVersion 1.7, ExtensionLevel 3)
If the PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF then ROL works its way down the structure tree (which can be viewed in Acrobat Pro's Tags panel).
A well-formed Tagged PDF (built to comply with ISO 32000 currently & going forward built to comply with ISO 14289 / ISO 32000 will, in fact meet current Section 508 criteria and Section 508 Refresh criteria.
Actually, it will met more rigorous criteria (Section 508, compared to other nations' requirements is somewhat anemic).
For English, ROL will read left to right; top down.
Not very useful for understanding tables and some other aspects of more developed content.
AT uses the structure tree to convey the PDF's logical hierarchy and semantic content flow to users.
So, a well-formed Tagged PDF is an essential for users of AT.
Section 14 of ISO 32000-1 provides discussion of logical structure and tags.
An ISO approved copy is at Adobe:
ISO 32000-1
In a nut shell, you'd want to provide a well-formed Tagged PDF.
To effectively consume a downloaded well-formed Tagged PDF end-users will want to use AT (NVDA (free, open source), JAWS, etc.) rather than Adobe Reader / Acrobat ROL.
As to Ted's PDF Bible.
I've got 'em on my bookshelf. Most excellent global references for all things Acrobat.
However, to deploy well-formed Tagged PDF requires more detailed references.
There is the up front authoring. Content must be mastered so as to support output of a well-formed Tagged PDF.
There is the requisite post-processing of the PDF with Acrobat Pro.
There is the requisite understanding of what the tags/elements are & how to properly use them.
There is the need for specific "how-to" with examples.
As to a "simple site" - - well, ahhh, "simple" precludes anything of usable worth, eh.
A search on variations of "accessible PDF" will provide links to resources that provide "how-to".
One resource is the Accessiblilty Forum at the Acrobat User Community.
AUC Accessibility Forum
An older thread there has links to Adobe "how-to" for various Acrobat releases.
An older list of reference material
As the core of Acrobat's accessibility features are largely the same since Acrobat 5.x older how-to documents are still useful.
For the most part, the most definitive discussions of the how-to & the why are in older Adobe documents.
Of course, stuff comes & goes out on the web so the links may or may not be functional.
(n.b., you'll have to copy-paste the URLs into a browser's address bar)
However, a search on a document's title may provide an alternative link.
If not, send me a forum PM.
Remember that the key to success (for a well-formed Tagged PDF) is in the authoring.
Proper authoring with an application that provides adequate Tag management is critical.
--| Adobe FrameMaker or InDesign with Acrobat Pro
--| MS Word with Acrobat Pro (for PDFMaker & ability to perform requisite post-processing of the PDF) for pre Office 2007
--| MS Word 2007 / 2010 have a Save As PDF feature that can provide tag management -- but Acrobat Pro is still needed to perform requisite post-processing
--| Open Office (& Acrobat Pro for requisite post-processing)
Be well...

How can I create a custom feature, which will automatically take a custom master page while creating a site ?

Hello ,
I am new in Sharepoint development . I am trying to create a Sharepoint feature to Activate master page automatically while creating the site .Below mentioned code I am using to do this .
But When I am creating any site under site collection .It is not applying automatically . I have to manually Activate that feature .
SPSite site = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
SPWeb rootWeb = site.RootWeb;
Uri masterUri = new Uri(rootWeb.Url + "/_catalogs/masterpage/mycustom.master");
rootWeb.MasterUrl = masterUri.AbsolutePath;
rootWeb.CustomMasterUrl = masterUri.AbsolutePath;
rootWeb.Update();
How Can I create a feature that can activate the master page at same time of site creation under Site collection ,Without any manual work ..
Thanks in Advance ..

Hi,
You can associate master page during feature activation as follows:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/19933.sharepoint-2010-set-a-custom-master-page-during-feature-activation.aspx
Then, you can use feature stapling to apply automatically on site creation:

How can I run the C program which will interact with user

hi, all
I wanna run a C program whose function is that just show a line of characters, waiting for user input and finally show what user has entered. The C can run correctly in command window. But when I use Runtime class, it can not run correctly. My question is that how I can emulate that C program just by invoking Java method. The code I have written below, thank.
      String command = "cmd /c a.exe"; // a.exe is that C program
      String s;
      try {
         Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
         InputStream input = process.getInputStream();
         BufferedReader bufferedReader =
            new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(input));
         while((s = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null)
              System.out.println(s);
      catch(IOException e) {
         System.err.println("IOException: " + e.getMessage());
      }

How do I create a natjmc file which will let me avoid code in functional header?

Hi,
We have calls through std::function<> in our C++ code and when debugging I would like to step into the function called but do not want to have to step through the 6 or 7 intermediate template layers.
Turning on "Just My Code" in VS 2013 is supposed to avoid this code from what I can tell based on this rule in default.natjmc

<File Name="*\VC\include\*" />
<File Name="*\VC\atlmfc\*" />
Sadly, when I debug step into a call to a function object, I end up stepping into functions like this one in <functional>:
_Ret operator()(_Types... _Args) const
  { // call through stored object
  if (_Impl == 0)
   _Xbad_function_call();
  return (_Impl->_Do_call(_STD forward<_Types>(_Args)...));
I'd like to have a single step walk from
-> CallingFunction
(F11) STEP INTO
-> MyCallback
     [external code]
     CallingFunction
I tried using a .natstepfilter file and adding _Func_.* with NoStepInto but that's too draconian. I want a rule like <Action>StepPast</Action> or StepThrough but that doesn't seem to exist either.
So how do people debug through std::function calls without going crazy with stepping through all the intermediate layers??

How to open an four year old upright 160 GB USB (backup) disk, alu housing

Bought unit 4 years ago, for backup purposes.
Unit carries no model- and/or serial number.
Assume that USB part of unit is out of order, unit not -anymore- seen by XP system; after weekly use.
Tried other USB cables and ports.
Would like to open unit, to get access to disk.
Any advise welcome. T.I.A.
Greetings, Nap - Gent - Belgium

Hi Daschiba and others,
Unit appeared to be Toshiba PX1219E-1G16 160GB .
After the "Deafening Silence" of Support Toshiba Europe, decided to open unit as described by Daschiba.
Before that: Checked Power Supply, was O.K.; so my idea that USB interface was defect, was vindicating.
Not that simple, had to use "brute force", but (luckily) disk 100 percent O.K., no lost files; so "back-up still available.

How do I authenticate my talktalk account which will no longer send messages on my MacBookPro using Mavericks

How do I authenticate my talktalk account on my MacBookPro running Mavericks? Suddenly it will receive, but not send.

What exactly is the problem that you are having ? Is it with downloading the iTunes program itself, or redownloading your purchases ?
If iTunes itself then you can download it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If it doesn't download then have you tried a different browser, and/or tried changing the settings on the browser that you are using e.g. turn off 'pop-up blocker' ?
If you've installed iTunes and want to download your past purchases, then what you can redownload depends upon what country that you are in, and whether the items are still in your country's store. What you can redownload will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage :
But ideally you'd have your own backup copy of all your downloads/library (and not relying on redownloading), a song/album etc could be removed from the store at any time.
If you will be syncing your iPad and iPhone to that computer then you may also find this page useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

Hi I use Osx 10.9.4 and FCPX 10.1.2 How can I choose a CD format which will be playable outside the World of Apple? i.e. in a 10 year old CD player in my old car

I am trying to make a CD for a Children's Hospital where I used imported tunes from iTunes into FCPX, then sharing and burning in .AIFF or .WAV extensions for the CD. When I do this I can play the CD on any Apple machine but not in a non Apple Device such as in a CD player in the Hospital, or my car. I would like to be able to play the CD outside the Apple domain. Any Ideas? Your suggestions would be most helpful. Thank you
DBC
PS
I use an iMac OXS 10.9.4 and FCPX 10.1.2

YYou should do this in iTunes not in FCP.

How to open text URL in the new tab

Hi guys,
We know that when we click on a hyperlink it will directly open the linked web site, e.g.
www.bing.com
But sometimes we may find some URL in plain text that we couldn't click on it, e.g. www.bing.com
I'll have to select the URL and copy&paste it to a new tab to open it, this is time wasting.
The time IE 9 came out, I found a wonderful add-on, Open URL in New Tab (with Preview)
This will do the trick to open the text URL in the new tab by right click on it.
http://www.iegallery.com/us/addons/detail.aspx?id=3614
But I don't like two things of it.
1st, it will try to preview the web site when I using it which is undesired.
2nd, it will open the link through another site and then jump back to the link I need to open. But I'd like to open the link directly. Which will open the link more quickly also save my time.
Questions:
Is there any other way to open the plain text URL directly? I mean without copy and past it to another page.
It would be great if I can open the URL by dragging it like the other...

Is there any other way to open the plain text URL directly? I mean without copy and past it to another page.
In these forums? If you are using the NNTP Bridge you could view your message in your News reader's Plain text mode and then see that your two examples worked equivalently.   <eg>
Otherwise, in general, I agree there are some pretty obvious "accelerators" which could have been provided.
I suspect much of the problem will be due to "security".   E.g. Windows used to have a functionality called text scraps, where you could select some text and drag and drop it just about anywhere to create a scrap file.   That's
not working for me any more either.   If it were we could at least drag it to the Address bar and press Enter...

Is there an easy way to download my music from the iCloud to iTunes library on my new PC desktop so I can sync my iPod? I have iMatch and cannot figure out how to do it in one fell swoop rather than by downloading each song, which will take forever!

Hi,
I have taken over my son's old PC desktop tower as it has more memory than my old PC. I installed iTunes on it and have accessed via my iMatch account my music library that's in the iCloud. I need to download it to the iTuned library on the desktop so I can sync my iPod. I can only see how to do it song-by-song, which will take forever for my almost 5000 songs. Is there a way to dowload the entire library in one fell swoop, letting it download without me having to do each song individually or monitor it?
Thanks,
