How to stop Performance Counter?

In Server Manager  Windows Server 2012 you can easy start performance counters by selectiong All Servers - Right Click the server and Select Start Performance Counters, but..
How can reverse this setting, I mean how can stop the Performance Counters so the option is back on the list?

Hi,
 Did you customize the performance counter ? 
What are the parameter you have been set., just right click and stop it and take report.

  • How to resolve "Performance counter registry hive consistency check" failed?

    I want to install SQL Server 2008 November CTP Developer Enu. When "System Configuration Check" it shows:
    Rule "Performance counter registry hive consistency check" failed.
    The performance counter registry hive is corrupted.
    And cannot continue installing. How to solve this problem?

    I've actually solved the problem for my Vista and Win 7 (traditional chinese version).

    I have realized that the code 009 is for english language and 004 for chinese traditional and in my "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
    NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib" did only exist 009 and 0404 key.
    Hence, i've created a new 004 key and copied 009 counter and help contents to this newly created key.
    Without restarting the OS, I was able to install smoothly MS SQL server express RC2.
    I'm so happy to have overcome this problem.
    But just out of curiosity does anyone know the syntax for the language codes? (009 for English, 004 for Chinese and 0404?

  • How to create performance counter based on no. of errors generated in application log

    i have written custom events into application log and am able to see those events as alerts in the scom console and now i want to see how many event errors are generated for every 15mins.(interval)performance counter with same event source or id. how can
    i get started with this 

    Hi,
    Please try to create event monitor Triggered on Count:
    Trigger on count consolidation of events lets a monitor require multiple occurrences of the same event in a specified time window before it changes the health state to an error. The time window can be rotating time duration of specified length or
    a specific window based on day of the week.
    Trigger on count consolidation resembles trigger on timer consolidation except that multiple occurrences of the event are required instead of just one. When the time window is reached, the event count is returned to zero, and the specific number of events
    must detected before the time window expires again for the health state to be changed.
    More details:

  • How to stop the counter after getting maximum amplitude from a waveform graph?

    I am using accelerometer, optical encoder and daq card (PCI MIO 16XE10) for my tyre balancing project. Basically i am trying to stop my edges count from the optical encoder to get the position for putting the mass for correcting the balancing. Could anyone please help me by telling me how i can achieve it or is there any other ways to get the position using the daq card? One more thing, could anyone tell me how to change the waveform graph to frequency domain instead of time domain?

    Time to Freq is easy. 1/time = freq. example. 1 msec period = 1000 hertz (1kHz).
    I guessing you are attempting to design a new spin balancer for tires. I would record the entire "spin cycle with index count" then search the resulting waveform for the max amplitutes. Correlate the indexes and that should give you the high point and location. You might want to count the number of revolutions, then grab that 60% of that number of peaks.

  • How to access performance counter directly?

    What I am going to do is programming with hardware performace counters of UltraSPARC T2+ processors in Solaris 10. I programmed a loadable syscall to invoke the hv_niagara_getperf or ultra_getpic, trying to get the counters' data. But there just comes a panic, unresponsive without any text notice, and then reset. I don't know what's the real causes because I am not very familiar with SUN servers.
    I did some experiments both in primary domain and logical domain. In primary domain, both hv_niagara_getperf and ultra_getpic lead to panic, and in logical domain, hv_niagara_getperf return the ENOACCESS status and ultra_getpic lead to panic.
    My question are:
    1, If there is some initialization works or privilege settings to do to prevent panic?
    2, If Logical Domain can be set privileges to access hardware performace counters? (I read the Hypervisor api manuals and it says only one domain can access performance counters. But vcpus is divided and allocated to different domains, every vcpu has its performace counters, how can I do to access their own performace counters in different domains?)
    3, I know there are methods such as libcpc, cpc module, and pcbe module for users or develpers to get performace data. What I am working at is to make some threads performance tuning on UltraSPARC T2+, Is the overhead acceptable to use these library or modules supported by the OS architecture.
    Please help me, indicate my fault and give me some advice or instruction. Thank you very much.

  • Error on install: Performance counter registry hive consistency check - Status:Failed

    Hi, I'm tryng to install sql server 2008 in win vista and in the System Configuration Check, item: Performance counter registry hive consistency check has the status FAILED  all the others items has PASSED and the setup stops here theonly option is CANCEL. Thus anyone knows the possible problem and resolution to this?
    best regards

    There is another post discussing the same issue as yours.  The subject of post is:
    How to resolve "Performance counter registry hive consistency check" failed?
    Please refer that post and see if it resolves the issue.   The bottom line is that you need to rebuild the perfmon counter, correct the bad registry key hive, and then you can install SQL Server 2008.
    If the reference of post doesn’t resolve the problem, please use “regedit.exe” to export the following registry key hive to a file, and then post the file here.
    “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib”
    Once I get the file, I will try to rebuild the perfmon counter for you. 
    The tool “regedit.exe” usually exports registry keys to files with extension “.reg”.   If you post the file, please rename it to the extension “.txt” so that it can reach to the forum.
    Thanks.

  • Start and stop error for performance counter in Perfmon of Windows server 2008

    Dear All,
    There is a centralized monitoring server to monitor a few Windows server 2003.
    There is a error when I start the performance counter for remote servers.
    But it can be started again after 10 seconds.
    Error:
    When attempting to start the Data Collector Set the following system error occured:
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    Another issue is I cannot start or stop the performance counter in command line (logman.exe) after 1 month.
    The error message is similar to the above, it mentioned something is using the files.
    I have to reboot my server.
    I don't know how can I find out the root cause.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Tommy Chan

     
    Dear Tommy,
    This issue may be caused by certain programs running in the background.
    If it is convenience for you to restart the server, you can do that and test the result.
    If the issue persists, you can try a Clean Boot.
    Clean boot
    =================
    Let’s disable all startup items and third party services when booting. This method will help us determine if this issue is caused by a loading program or service. Please perform the following steps:
    1. Click the Start Button type "msconfig" (without quotation marks) in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
    Note: If prompted, please click Continue on the User Account Control (UAC) window.
    2. Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray).
    3. Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".
    Then, restart the computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the "Don't show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when Windows starts" box and click OK.
    Please test this issue in the Clean Boot environment, if the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, we can use a 50/50 approach to quickly narrow down which entry is causing the issue.
    If the issue still occurs, we may need to collect some trace information of the error message by using Process Monitor.
    1. Download process monitor from the link given here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
    2. Run the process monitor on the problematic server:
    3. Start Process Monitor. You will see File/Registry activity is being captured.
    4. Press Ctrl+E to stop logging data.
    5. Press Ctrl+X to clear the currently captured data.
    6. Under Process Monitor, press Ctrl+E to start gathering data.
    7. Now try to reproduce the issue: Start or stop the performance counter in command line to let the error message appear again.
    8. Under Process Monitor, Press Ctrl+E to stop capturing.
    9. Please save the captured data from Process Monitor to a file (File->Save) and upload this file to the following site:
    https://sftus.one.microsoft.com/choosetransfer.aspx?key=626b99a0-c31f-4cd9-9fec-5e0597adef20
    Password: i#qil_O$Q[
    Please also collect the Process Explorer log on the problematic client:

  • Upgrading from Exchange 2007 SP2 to SP3 stops and fails with Performance Counter

    We are upgrading from Exchange 2007 SP2 to SP3.
    Exchange Server is on Windows 2008 Enterprise 64 bit OS -SP2
    DC is on windows 2008 Enterprise 32 bit OS - SP2
    When we run Exchange SP3 setup.exe GUI, it runs through the pre-requisites completely and then starts to configure the Hub Transport services but @ exactly 55% it throws an error window "Exchange Server Setup encountered an error"
    On repeating this process i noticed it throws the same error at 55% while "Performance COunter Configuring". Please find below the entries of exchangesetup.log

    Appreciate if someone can help us move forward in this scenario.
    We have
    1. disabled anti virus and tried.
    2. removed watermarks and action entries in the registry
    3. tried almost everything mentioned on google but i am not able to move forward.
    Please help. we need this as part of our migration to Exchange 2013 for co-existence.
    Thank you.

  • How to stop the new health application from Count the steps/ woking background?

    how to stop the new health application from Count the steps/ woking background?
    I really need your help

    I agree with Mr. Hall that using mx.controls.Alert in Flex may be a better route.
    Show the Alert like this:
    // show an alert with a question and yes and no choices
    Alert.show( "Would you like to go to the Adobe Forums?", "Question",
         Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, closeHandler, null, Alert.YES );
    Then handle the response in the closeHandler() function:
    protected function closeHandler( closeEvent:CloseEvent ):void
    if( event.detail == Alert.YES )
         navigateToURL( new URLRequest('http://forums.adobe.com'), '_self' );
    else if( event.detail == Alert.NO )
         // they chose no
    The following documentation on Alerts may be helpful:
    http://www.flexafterdark.com/docs/ActionScript-Alert
    Let me know if that helps...

  • How to view custom performance counter data?

    I have created a new MVC application and have added Application Insights to the project. I modified the ApplicationInsights.config file to start collecting the performance counter for Memory\Page Faults/sec. How can I tell if this data is making it to App
    Insights? I can't see the data in the portal. When I add a chart in metrics explorer this counter does not exist under the Performance Counters.
    Where do I go to view this data? How can I determine if it's working or not? Also the documentation I'm finding on the subject appears to be outdated. Is MMA still used to capture this data? If not, what is used now? Do I need to restart something in order
    for this data to start getting collected?
    Here is my config:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

      <PerformanceCounters>
        <PerformanceCounterConfiguration counterSpecifier="\Memory\Page Faults/sec"/>
      </PerformanceCounters>
    </ApplicationInsights>

    Can you please let us know which documentation you're referring to? It does seem to be outdated.
    Application Insights collects certain performance counters on its own; unfortunately, the list of performance counters is not configurable as of now. The syntax you're using
    <PerformanceCounters>
        <PerformanceCounterConfiguration counterSpecifier="\Memory\Page Faults/sec"/>
      </PerformanceCounters>
    is not supported.
    Performance data will be collected automatically (no further configuration needed) as long as the following element is in your ApplicationInsights.config (and it is indeed present in your sample):
      <Add Type="Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.PerfCollector.PerformanceCollectorModule,
    Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.PerfCollector" />
    Performance counters currently collected by Application Insights are:
    \Process(<application process>)\% Processor Time
    \Memory\Available MBytes
    \ASP.NET Applications(<IIS process>)\Requests/Sec
    \.NET CLR Exceptions(<application process>)\# of Exceps Thrown / sec
    \ASP.NET Applications(<IIS process>)\Request Execution Time
    \Process(<application process>)\Private Bytes
    \Process(<application process>)\IO Data Bytes/sec
    \ASP.NET Applications(<IIS process>)\Requests In Application Queue
    \Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time
    There are additional factors that may affect performance collection; this blog article contains a section detailing performance collection in Application Insights SDK:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2014/12/11/updated-application-insights-status-monitor-to-support-12-and-later-application-insights-sdk.aspx
    Please check out the section starting with the words "One of the changes made in the .12 version
    of the Application
    Insights for Web Applications SDK is the collection of the following Windows performance counters."
    As you can see from the blog post, you are indeed looking in the right place in the portal (Metric Explorer under Performance Counters), but only the default counters will be collected.
    As a workaround, consider taking advantage of one of TelemetryClient.Track* methods to report data to Application Insights.

  • How to stop a period counter in a while loop without using abort execution%3F

    I am using a NI x series 6343 andcounting pulses, but when i try to stop the counter with a boolean operator nothing happens, ihave to go and use abort execution, 
    Help

     the stop sign does not do anything, it just stops after the timeout.
    Which is exactly what you're asking it to do.
    The STOP button is not a magic ABORT function.  It's a simple TRUE/FALSE variable.
    The way you have it set up is:
    repeat
       Get some data (Timeout = 10 sec)
       Process the data
    until STOPped
    It's going to check that STOP value (is it pressed or not) ONCE, sometime during the loop.  Maybe before your GET DATA, maybe during, maybe after - you don't know.
     Whenever the GET DATA thing returns (after 10 sec, or after getting some data), then it willl use that value and decide to loop again, or to stop.
    If you want to abort the GET DATA operation, you have to find another way.
    One way is to use a shorter timeout.  Do you have to track it down to 1 pulse every 10 sec?  If not shorten your timeout and go from there.
    Another way is to find a way to abort the operation.
    Again, I'm not familiar with the EXPRESS stuff you're using, so I don't know the details.  In all my 26 years of LabVIEW programming, I've never once used EXPRESS stuff.
    Using the regular NIDAQ stuff, you would
    INIT a task
    START a task (Task ID)
    repeat
       READ a task (TaskID, timeout = 0.1 sec, or something)
       if TIMED OUT
           do nothing
       else if ERROR
           announce error
       else
           Process data
       end if
    until STOPPed or ERROR
    CLEAR task(Task ID)
    It's more complicated, but you have more control.

    are locked user files or that have incorrect permission a bad thing?
    Yes.
    why am i removing symantec?
    Short answer: Because it's worse than useless and worse than the imaginary "viruses" you're afraid of would be if they really existed. For the long answer, see below.
    1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to log in to it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it.
    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
    The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    ☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    ☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    ☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    ☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    ☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    Apple has so far failed to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. These failures don't involve App Store products, however.
    For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, and a technological fix is not going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the scam artists. If you're smarter than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
    Software from an untrustworthy source
    ☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
    ☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software.
    ☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
    ☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
    Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
    ☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
    ☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission.
    Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
    ☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    ☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
    ☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
    ☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
    ☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
    ☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
    Unexpected events
    ☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
    ☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    ☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
    I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
    Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
    7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" (AV) or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
    ☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
    ☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    ☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    ☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
    8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
    Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
    London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
    You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in everyemail attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It's as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • How to stop the Flex application when user clicks on Cancel button from JS-confirm message?

    Hi All,
    I use the next code when a user clicks on a link:
    private function clickHandler():void
          ExternalInterface.call('confirm', 'Of course you want to go to the Adobe forums!');
          navigateToURL(new URLRequest('http://forums.adobe.com'), '_self');
    This will show up the javascript confimation box. But when the cancel-button is clicked, the user goes straightly to http://forums.adobe.com...
    How to stop Flex performing the next code when a user clicks on the Cancel button?
    Or, how to catch which button is clicked by a user in Flex?
    Thanks!

    I agree with Mr. Hall that using mx.controls.Alert in Flex may be a better route.
    Show the Alert like this:
    // show an alert with a question and yes and no choices
    Alert.show( "Would you like to go to the Adobe Forums?", "Question",
         Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, closeHandler, null, Alert.YES );
    Then handle the response in the closeHandler() function:
    protected function closeHandler( closeEvent:CloseEvent ):void
    if( event.detail == Alert.YES )
         navigateToURL( new URLRequest('http://forums.adobe.com'), '_self' );
    else if( event.detail == Alert.NO )
         // they chose no
    The following documentation on Alerts may be helpful:

    Let me know if that helps...

  • External Hard Drives - how to stop LR3.3 wanting to import.

    I have 3 external hard drives which I use for backing up pictures and other folders. Whenever I plug one of them in, LR opens the Import dialog, even though I have auto import switched off. It's not serious, but it is annoying! Can anyone tell me how to stop it doing this?

    Try the following:
    In <My Computer> right-click the external drive, in the dialog box click on <Properties>, and on the <Autoplay> tab. Select <Pictures> and Make <Select an Action to perform> active by clicking on the radio button. Scroll down the list and make sure that <LR import photos> is NOT selected. Or select <Take no action>.
