I'm totally stumped... Any takers?

I am totally confused on this one...
At a customer's site, we have an application that runs great interactively. When the same application is configured as a Windows service (using srvany), it fails to connect with a TNS Operation Timed Out error.
I've done my best to search Google, but it wants to return info about Oracle's services - not apps running as a service that use Oracle.
I've tried to explain that this is something that their DBAs should try to resolve with Oracle, but they keep insisting that our application isn't working and are looking to us to resolve it.
Any ideas?? Whoever guesses the cause gets a beer :)
Alternatively.. What is the best way to get Oracle involved as an OTN or OPN member?
Jon

If you want to get Oracle involved, you need to go through Metalink. Assuming your customer has a support agreement, they can log TAR's with Oracle Support on Metalink. If you are an Oracle partner, you may be able to log TAR's (depending on your partner level) either free or on a per-incident basis.
If you go to the Services option in the Control Panel, and locate the service for your application, try changing the account that is used to run the service to the account that is running the application interactively. My wager is that the account that is running the service doesn't have the necessary permissions.

Sdo_util.simplify - Error? Bug? Totally stumped !

Hi folks,
I have a confusing problem/error with using sdo_util.simplify. I am using Oracle 11G R2 with Spatial Option.
I have loaded just over 2000 UK postown polygons - based on an OS source. These loaded fine and have been working perfectly well with spatial sql.
The source data specifies the projection as British National Grid GCS_OSGB_1936 and the SRID within the Oracle metadata was correctly (i believe) determined (by calculate mbr) and set to 7405 - OSGB36 / British National Grid
I can view the polygons perfectly fine in SqlDeveloper/GeoRaptor and if export them to KML and view them in Google Earth they position and display exactly as I would expect.
All other spatial functions I have tried on the polygons work fine.
The problem comes when I try and use sdo_util.simplify to reduce the number of co-ordinates used on the polygons :
select sdo_util.simplify(poly_hi,100,0.005)
from posttown_boundaries;
ORA-13199: the given geometry cannot be rectified
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.MD", line 1723
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.MDERR", line 17
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_UTIL", line 716
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_UTIL", line 770
ORA-06512: at line 1
13199. 00000 - "%s"
*Cause:    This is an internal error.
*Action:   Contact Oracle Support Services.
I've tried various threshold and tolerance values ( the only threshold value that works is 0 which returns the same geometry.
I have successfully used the sdo_util.simpify functions on the other spatial objects in the database so I don't believe it to be a database setup issue.
When I run a validate geometry on the table for the geometry column I get the ORA-13029: Invalid SRID in the SDO_GEOMETRY object.
However, as explained above the SRID was selected and checked using calculate MBR and it matches exactly what I would have expected given the source data and i have not found any other issues with the SRID.
The error can be reproduced without any of the source tables by just taking one small polygon definition as follows:
select sdo_util.simplify(
MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(

Hi Mike,
Usually someone jumps in early with the "geometry ain't valid" answer so I am late to the party. When I attempt to validate your 7405 geometry using 11gR2, I receive back error 13029.

dualThe error indicates that SRID 7405 "is invalid" which is not really all that informative. As you note above 7405 exists in MDSYS but its marked as a COMPOUND CRS which to keep it simple is a 3D CRS.
(see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28400/sdo_cs_concepts.htm#autoId18)
Thus "invalid" in this context means the SRID is invalid for the geometry you are putting it upon.
So if we just add a Z to your geometry everything works hunky-dory

dualSo long-winded way to reiterate what Ivan said - you are using the wrong SRID. 10g was more forgiving than 11g when mixing and matching 3D and 2D SRIDs with data. 11g is more picky but not always that great at explaining the pickiness. I would bet if you had got back an error such as "2D coordinates not valid with 3D SRID" you would never have needed to post the question. I would suggest putting in an enhancement request to Support for some better error messages.

Get the new keyboard at eBay and replace by yourself may be cheaper way, though you're required higher skill and well know about MacBook Air.

Labview Application missing SubVI's, totally stumped

Hello. I am working on a VI that is a simple thermocouple datalogger. I have created it in Labview 2013 (latest patch) on a Windows 7 Machine. It works correctly on the development machine with Labview installed. It uses custom drivers for an Advantech USB 4718 data acqusition module. These drivers were downloaded directly from the manufacturer.
When I build an application and copy it over to a different machine (running windows 8) I get a laundry list of missing SubVIs when I try to run it (see image). This is despite installing all relevant data aquisition drivers (I have verified that the module works with the manufacturers own daq software) the latest version of Labview 2013 run time engine, DAQmx, etc.... I can't think of anything else that should be installed but Im totally stumped.
Anything else I can try? Is it because the Dev machine is windows 7 but the application machine is windows 8? I'm new to building applications from labview, so I'm not sure what I may be missing. Thank you.
Error Message(s)

It seems that most of these VIs are used by the DAQNaviAssistant from Advantech.
You should ask Advantech if there are known issues when building executables in LV which contain these ExpressVIs.
Also, you can re-build your EXE without optimizing the EXE content by de-selecting all checkmarks on the "Additional Exclusions" tab. It is possible that one of these options remove these subVIs.
What bothers me is that it runs on the development machine... which indicates that the EXE itself should really contain everything what it needs (except driver functions, namely DLLs of course).

TS3376 the application is working good, but the location of my device has found was totally wrong. any idea?

the application is working good, but the location of my device has found was totally wrong. any idea?

That would be the issue here.
The gateway is a modem/router that is in charge of your network.
The AirPort sensed this during setup and configured itself to operate correctly and passively with an "upstream" router on the network.....so, the Airport is in Bridge Mode.
The upside is that the AirPort is configured correctly to work with your gateway. The downside.....and Catch 22....is that the Guest Network will not operate correctly when the AirPort is in Bridge Mode.
The AirPort has to be the router "in charge" in order for the Guest Network feature to work correctly.
If you want to try to break some basic networking rules, and have two devices both trying to perform routing chores on the network, that might be a workaround. But, things get complicated to set this up.....and it will produce what is known as a Double NAT error on the network......which may allows things to work OK....or....cause problems.
Double NAT errors are unpredictable. It will be one of those things where you will not know if things will work until you try. No guarantees possible.
The network will have to be completely redone if you want to try this, and you will have to set up new Static IP addresses for devices that need them.
In general, if you want to try this, the network layout must look like this:
Internet Connection > SMC Gateway > AirPort Express > Ethernet Switch > Devices.
With things set up the way that they are now......the simpler thing to do would be to use the SMC wireless for your "main" network and the AirPort Express wireless for "guests".
The downside....."guests" will be able to "see" devices on your "main" network with this type of setup.

X200 HD refuses to be partitioned -- am totally stumped!

I just purchased an X200 whose HD I'm trying to partition, in order to separate OS and software from my data. I've successfully done this several times over the years on other IBM/Lenovo laptops (a T40, a T43, a T60 and a T61) using version 8.01 of PowerQuest Partition Magic. The T61, which was the most recent experience, was not as straightforward as the previous ones, but what I'm encountering with this X200 has me completely stumped.
I'm running Windows XP Professional (factory downgrade), which I've updated to SP3. All critical updates, Microsoft and Lenovo, have been installed.
Here’s what looks normal:
1. Windows thinks my hard drive is fine. I performed a CHKDSK on Drive C and it encountered no errors whatsoever. According to disk properties, Drive C has 143 GB total capacity, 16.3 GB of which is used, and is an NTFS disk.
2. Lenovo's ThinkVantage Create Recovery Media had no problem reading the drive and creating a bootable CD and backup DVDs.
3. Likewise, Acronis True Image Home 9.0 successfully backed up both Drive C (Pri, Acct, 143.4 GB capacity, NTFS) as well as SERVICEV001 (Pri, 5.679 GB capacity), FAT 32 Partition: 0x12 (Compaq Setup).
Here's what is NOT normal: I'm unable to partition the drive with a) PowerQuest's Partition Magic 8, with b) GParted 3.9-13, with c) Easeus Partition Manager 3, or with d) Paragon Partition Manager 9 (demo version). Below are the error messages received.
a) Partition Info (a tool within Partition Magic) informs me that “Disk Geometry errors were found”:
Error #105: Partition didn't begin on head boundary. ucBeginHead expected to be 0 or 1, not 32.
Error #106: Partition didn't begin on head boundary. ucBeginSector expected to be 1, not 33.
Error #109: Partition ends after end of disk. ucEndCylinder (20673) must be less than 20673.
Partition Magic itself doesn't even initialize: “Error 117, Partition's Drive Letter cannot be identified.”
b) GParted saw ONE large unallocated and unformatted space, but refused to let me to do anything with it other than have the program reconfigure the MBR and thus delete every file on my drive. On other forum threads GParted was highly recommended because it can partition a Lenovo drive and leave the Service Partition intact, but on my HD it can't even see the Service Partition.
c) Easeus Partition Manager simply saw one Primary Local Disk which it labeled "BAD DISK." Its size is 149.05 GB, ALL of which is used. Status = "none" (I have no idea what that means.)
d) Paragon's PM refused to create a new partition because "Basic Hard Disk 0 already contains four primary partitions. Basic hard disks can contain only four primary partitions, including extended one." Other screens gave much detail about what it thought were 3 primary partitions, all of which have "Invalid" file systems and "No label." One of the start sectors was 33, the other 46.
So my question is, what do you suggest I do now, other than drink a lot of eggnog while I hope that Santa brings me a new HD I can partition? ;-)
I’m not an expert on computers, so please forgive me in advance for asking stupid questions. Here’s the first one: did ThinkVantage’s “create recovery media” backup the Windows XP files that came from the factory, or the ones I painstakingly updated after several hours of Windows Updates? (I did run it AFTER doing the updates!)
Many thanks in advance, and happy holidays to those who are celebrating at this time.
Lena
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Bottom line for whoever else has the same problem in the future:
Booted with a GParted CD, allowed it to rebuild the partition table, and to build the partitions I wanted. (The latter was a waste of time, because when I restored Windows using Rescue & Recovery, the partitions GParted had built were gone.) If all GParted sees is unallocated space, program it to create only a C partition and rebuild the partition table.
I very strongly suggest redundant backups prior to this procedure. I backed up using R&R to *both* CD/DVD and USB HD. I ordered the boot sequence (press F12) as USB HD followed by USB CD. I'd tested the CD but not the HD. And yikes, the USB HD refused to boot. Fortunately I had the CD, which enabled me to boot, and the HD, which enabled me to restore the files more quickly than the DVDs would.
Windows was restored to the way I had configured it (with other programs I'd installed, including Partition Magic). The Service Partition was there, hidden as it should be, accessible from the Blue ThinkVantage Button, but smaller than it used to be. I immediately created a new R&R backup on the local HD.
Then I used PowerQuest's Partition Magic 8.01 to create the partitions I wanted. PM worked like it should. My guess is that any partitioning program would.
Finito. Thanks, Soap, for confirming my impression that this would require a disk wipe.

Bluecove??? totally stumped

Hi there,
I have a bluetooth dongle that operates off IVT BlueSoleil, I am programming using NetBeans and I have downloaded the bluecove API jar file. Now this question may sound stupid, but "how do I use the bluecove API?" How do I import it into my application so that it can operate with my USB dongle? I have looked at the Bluecove website, but there are no straightforward tutorials on how to get up and running with bluecove. I am totally frustrated and stumped, and I would appreciate some assistance.
Thanks
K.

Wrong forum. Bluecove is a Java SE implementation of JSR-82 and has nothing whatsoever to do with CLDC and MIDP.
To use any external library, the jar must be available on the compile-time and runtime classpath.
In NetBeans, right-click the Project node --> Properties.
Select 'Libraries'
Click 'Add Jar/Folder'
Navigate to bluecove-2.0.1.jar (or whatever version you have).
I hope you are aware that Bluecove is not compatible with all USB dongles.

Signal Quality issues - totally stumped

My first post so apologies if I step on anyones toes.
I've had a browse through and can't find an existing post that covers my scenario.
For a while now my box has been having issues on certain channels. The exact scenario is that the signal quality drops to below 25% which causes picture blocking / freezing.
Before anyone says its a MUX issue, I have tried.
1) New cables
2) Rebooting
3) Factory reset
4) A known good cheapie freeview receiver from Asda shows a static 95% quality on the channels where the BT Vision box has problems. With both the old and the new cables. No signal bouncing - stays solidly at 95% (or thereabouts)
The specific channels it has issues with are Channel 21 (VIVA),Channel 38 (quest +1). I am on Waltham transmitter and other channels on the MUXes have 85% quality and higher on the BT Vision box. On VIVA and Quest +1 the quality bounces all over the place between less than 25% upto 87%.
If it was all channels on the MUX then I'd know it was time for aerial reposition, but with it being on only specific channels and a cheapie receiver working perfectly I'm a bit stumped??
Additionally, since the new firmware, I use a 4:3 TV through SCART and the screen real estate now seems wrong as it chops the bottom off the screen when in the new menu system - so things telling me what to press are lost - ie: to delete a recording from the recordings section I can't see any advice at the bottom of the screen as was there on the old firmware, I basically found it was the red button by trial and error. I'm guessing BT think we all have HDMI TV's and maybe the menu works OK on HDMI.
Its as though the tuner has just decided it doesn't like channels 21 and 38 - maybe its telling me to to watch some better quality programs... Or more seriously, maybe its cooked and has a specific frequency reception issue? Unlikely but I can't think what else it could be.
If anyone can advise I'd appreciate some guidance as I've pretty much exhausted my limited knowledge of TV transmitter behaviour.
Pete

Hi Pete65,
It could be possible that if you are in the Northampton/Milton Keys/ Bedford/ etc areas, that particular mux could have some signal interference .
There was a post earlier which I can't find right now, where the author talks about signal quality vs signal strength.
It could also be possible that the signal is too strong which could cause a detrimental effect on the quality.

Strange Connectivity Problem- Totally Stumped

Hey Guys!
Alright, I'm completely stumped and beginning to get very frustrated. Maybe you can figure it out.
I can't access my school's online learning website from my internet at home. My roommates can- one has a MacBook, one has a PC. If I try to access it on any other network, I can just fine. But, when I take the ethernet cable out of the router at home and plug it directly into my computer, I can access the website. On occasion I will be able to go on to the website, but it always seems to be around 3 AM or later, never during a normal time. I've tried doing a bit of troubleshooting on the internet connection and the router, nothing is making sense.
I have a MacBook Pro and a Belkin router.
Anyone have any ideas? :\

I high lighted the clue in your post. Your ISP modem likely assigned one IP Address to the first device it sees connected to it and caches the mac address of this device. In your case the first device was your computer. So when you connect your computer to the modem with the Ethernet cable the modem recognizes it. Then when you replace the computer by connecting the router to the modem the modem does not recognize the mac address of the router so does not assign it an ip address. Try shutting everything down, power off the modem, power up the modem, power up the router, then power up the computer. See if that works.
You did not mention if it is just this web site that does not work or if all web sites do not work. My response assumes you have no web access when you observe this issue.

I'm totally stumped... Any takers?
