I messed up my System with dotpac (solved)

Hey guys,
I think i got some serious problem here. I just installed dotpac and removed all old files with the new .pacsave files. No i can't log in as root anymore, because i removed the passwd file...
Any idea what to do now?

trapdoor wrote:So i boot from the arch install cd, chroot in my enviroment and then copy the /etc path from the cd to my enviroment?
I would just boot from a livecd (could be arch install cd) chroot into your environment (as a root user ), and because you're root, you can just issue passwd.
This worked for me back in time on gentoo, so that should still work I guess.

[HP Expert Day] "You are not able to restore this system with the media"

Welcome to HP Experts day!
I've got a long-standing problem since last year. Let's see if you can solve this!
I'll get straight to the point :
I am unable to perform recovery on my system. This is the error message :
It's a USB recovery media created with the HP recovery media utility on the same laptop. Tested to work correctly before I sent it for RMA on my SSD. It initially was running on a micron SSD. When I got it back, it was a samsung SSD instead, according to some benchmark results.
Laptop : HP Envy Spectre XT 13-2018TU
P.S I've already opened another thread on this last year.
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Recovery/Unable-to-boot-from-USB-recovery-media/m-p/2197929#M1...
But they were stumped.

I had this exact same issue on a Spectre XT Pro Ultrabook.
The original SSD failed and I was sent a replacement, was fortunate enough to be able to create a Recovery USB stick using the wizard in Windows. When booting from USB I received the message "You are not able to restore this system with the media".
SOLUTION: You must NOT use the Recovery USB stick in any USB3.0 port (labelled SS). Using another USB port prevented this exact error message from appearing and I was able to complete the system restore process.
I hope this helps someone, I signed up and posted here especially for this reason!

Hp pavilion dv6 recovery system with win 7 dvd image not found

Hello everyone, I have a hp pavilion dv6 I going to restore the operating system win 7 that I previously saved in an image of the system in 2 DVDs. I need to restore the entire computer because I do not want to lose all installations made within a year , including software installations regularly purchased online which do not have the original CDs . I tried to go in :
1 - "Backup and Restore Computer"
2 - Control Panel and select the " Restore system settings or your computer "
3 - then " advanced recovery methods "
4 - next page select " Use a system image you created earlier to recover your computer "
5 - At this point it asks me to do a backup, but I do not care because the computer is pretty much with the factory settings as has just returned from assistance hp and after ignoring the message I restart the computer in recovery mode expecting to reinstall the system with the image .
After a series of steps at the time to reload the image from the second DVD that I had previously saved , the computer can not find even one image to be restored where am I wrong?

Is it possible to build a project with Labview 2010 on a Windows XP system, that is useful for a system with windows 7 on it?

Hi there,
I am planning to use Labview 2010 in a short time.
But before I'm going to use it I have some questions.
I know it is possible to run Labview 2010 in an XP environment. But is it also possible to, when running Labview 2010 on a XP system, to build a project to a version that is useful in a Windows 7 environment?
Or do I have to run Labview 2010, when I want to build a project that is useful on a Windows 7 system, on a system with Windows 7?
Please give me some information.
I hope to hear from one of you soon.

XI 2.0: HowTo connect Bus.-Systems with different Releases to XI (RFC-Ad.)

Hi,
can anybody help me solving this problem:
I have Business-Systems connected to XI by RFC-Adapter. Everything works fine. Now I want to upgrade some of these Business-Systems to a newer Release --> RFCs are changing! (For both Releases I have separate Developing-Systems)
Does the following work?
- Creating a new Product-Version
- Creating new Software-Component-Versions for the new Product-Version
- Creating Namespaces with the same names (as in the older Software-Component-Versions)
- Tools/Release-Takeover for every Software-Component
- Connecting Develop-System of the new Release to the new Software-Components (Interface-Import of RFCs)--> in the new Software-Components only new RFCs can be uploaded.
- Business-Systems with old Release keep connected with old Product-Version. Business-Systems with new Release are connected with new Product-Version.
Does it work? Is this the best approach or are there other possibilities?
Thanks in advance,
Max.

Hey
are u suppose to do an IDOC(R/3 system A)-Xi-IDOC(R/3 system B) scenario,of u have to collect IDOC's from both the R/3 systems and send it to a single file?
in any case u have to maintain separate Business system and logical system name for both R/3 systems

Looking for dual wireless rechargeable headphone system with dual docks

I'm looking for a pretty specific product, and was wondering if anyone knows of a product that'll fit the bill.
I want a wireless dual headphone system with a charging dock for each headset. Transmitter should accept line level signal from dual RCA plugs. I'd prefer a 900mhz transmitter, but IR is acceptable. Either the system should come with two headsets or it should be a system with a transmitter/headset with the option to add a charging dock and an additional heaset.
My old system was a Sony which is on its last legs, and I found a replacement from another manufacturer with dual headsets but it lacks charging docks - you have to plug the heaset into the transmitter and both heasets can't be charged at once. Also, the manufacturer says not to charge a headset for more than 24 hours or you can damage the battery.
Anyone know if Sony or someone else makes what I want?
Solved!

Hi Verne,
Sony does not have manufacture dual Wireless Headphones. You can perform an Internet search and check for any third party dual headphones.

Hello,
I've a interface RFC to JDBC syncrhonous
I've two CC sender (RFC) for the same interface, one for each client. The test for one client is ok however the test in other client result with the follow error:
'aternativeServiceIdentifier: party/servce from channel configuration are not equal to party/service from lookup of alternativeServiceIdentifier..', I have seen the 730870 note (Q26) but i don't see how solved my problem.
1.- Somebody can explain me the difference betwen using business system with party or business system without party in the integration directory?
Thanks very much.

Connect to a backend system with the BI connector via Visual Composer

Hi all,
I set up a system landscape on my notebook with the NW2004s ABAP as NSP and with the NW2004s JAVA SP7 as J2E. Both systems are integrated in the SLD, this is set up. Furthermore I installed a BI system alias as NSP_XMLA in the portal with the URL for the backend system: http://localhost:8000/sap/bw/xml/soap/xmla.
I have the same user on portal and backend system NSP. Both have admin previleges.
When I try to logon to the backend system with this URL I get this error:
"No switch to HTTPS occurred, so it is not secure to send a password"
" Choose "Logon" to continue A dialog box appears in which you can enter your user and password"
Then I can logon to the server and get a lot of XML.
But I have to manually logon to the system.
From the portal I cannot logon to the backend system with the test function. I get the error:
Alias is found, but connection failed.
I guess there must be an automatic logon preconfigured.
How can I do this?
Is SSO necessary?
thanks for any help

Hi Gregor,
thanks for your answer, which was intersting but could not solve the problem. In the meantime I discoverd the reason for it.
You have to insert the connection URL to the BW system at 2 points in the system.
1. You have to configure the XMLA connector with the Visual Administrator.
2. You must implement a system in the portal where you configure all necessary information, also the URL to the BW system.
This seems somewhat strange to me because you will then not be able to connect with two or more BW systems to the portal and VC what is centainly necessary in a real world scenario. Anyway I can now see all Infoproviders of the BW system in the VC, and SSO isn't necessary because you configure the information to login to the BW system directly in the configuration of the XMLA connector in Visual Administrator.

BI system with additional client for non-BI application

We have a test SRM system with the BI_CONT add-in loaded. Our intent was to use one client for BI and another client for SRM unit testing. It is feasible to run BW in the same physical instance as SRM, given that they are both built on NW 70, and we loaded the BI_CONT.
In the BW client (100) I try to create a source system for the SRM app (client 400). After I enter the RFC destination (SRMCLNT400) and necesasry credentials, the system tries to sign me back into client 100. Then it gives error "SRDCLNT100 already exists". That source does exist because it is the BI souce, and I never specified SRDCLNT100. I used the RFC destination created for SRDCLNT400. Why might this be happening because to the BI client (100), it shouldn't be able to distinguish between a source system that's on the same physical instance (different client) versus a differnet instance/host.

Hi
Somehow yes, but as I said:
I faced the problem with "The logical system name has changed" (exit only). I tried to solve it by running BDLS but it did not solve the problem.
This is why I asked about the proper approach. Your proposal is a little bit different to my last try, because you suggest to copy 800 to the new client. I have used 000 as a source for copy.
My main concern is what with some functionalities in client 800 if I move BI to the new client (this means RSA1 will not work in 800).
See here (though this is for solution manager): Re: BW / SolMan Logical System Change
This is why I considered using the same client for ERP and BI (only 800), but here I am not sure if there are some disadvantages (but compared to having Bi on different client, so database size is not an issue).
Do you know what will be wrong to use only client 800 and only add BI CONT to the system ? Do you know any SAP notes which says that this is wrong?

Rafal

New P55-GD65 System with old already installeWindows 7 doesn't boot, Blue screen

I just built my new system with these specs
1. Core i5
2. P55-GD65
3. Kingston 2x2gb 1333Mhz DDR3
4. MSI N275GTX Twin FROZR
5. 650watt PSU
6. Sony DVD/CD RW+
7. BIOS Ver 1.2
I had a 500gb SATA WD HDD which i used with my old system, with windows 7 ultimate 32bit and windows xp 64bit installed. It was working pretty fine with that system. When i built this new rig, i installed the same HDD with it but wt i now face is that my win7 doesn't boot. Soon after windows 7's logo appears, the system reboots after a short blue screen. On reboot win7 asks for a startup repair . . . when i go for it, it fails to repair. I get the following thing in error;
Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline
Problem Signature 01: (win 7's version is listed here - the same goes for Prob Signature 02)
Problem Signature 03: Unknown
Problem Signature 04: 21201167
Problem Signature 05: AutoFailover
Problem Signature 06: 6
Problem Signature 07: CorruptAcl
Locale ID: 1033
I even tried to go for Repair through Windows 7 CD but in vain.
Can anybody help me here. I really don't want to go for a fresh installation.
Regards,
Bkee
P.S
My XP 64bit works pretty fine wid it although some drivers for "SM BUS Controller" and "Base System Cannot" can't be found.. The problem is only wid win7.

Quote
will give a try to install msi drivers using my old system and then connecting the HDD back to this new rig.... Hope it will work...!!!!
That activity is pointless. You cannot install drivers for stuff that is not there on your old system.
Please do yourself a favour and stop dancing around this whole problem (which seems like a pseudo-problem to me). Putting on a fresh installation of the operating system is the first thing that should be done on a new system configuration. Even if you manage to get stuff working without reinstalling, you are working with a potential driver mess and a confused Windows Registry that may throw problems at you that you may currently not be an issue.

WF-BATCH on different systems with different email adresses and also CUA

We have several SAP systems (1x ERP, 3x IS-U, 1x CRM, 1x HR, 1x SRM, etc.) and we have a CUA system for the administration of all users on these SAP systems. On the seperate SAP systems we have workflows active which all use user(s) WF-BATCH.
Now, we have the problem that emails are sent from the workflows by the WF-BATCH user(s). But on the HR system we want to sent the mail using HR @ company.com and from the ERP system we want to sent the mail using ERP @ company.com and from the IS-U system ISU1 @ company.com, etc.etc.
But all users are maintained from the CUA so we have 1 WF-BATCH user in CUA. The emailadress is also maintained in the CUA (so changing WF-BATCH in the different SAP system with SU01 is no option).
Does anyone have any experience with this and do you have tips how to solve this?

I had a previous similar experience and I had to go and change the user in every system (although the client had CUA). In my case, I actually had to create WF-BATCH manually in every single system.
