IFS installation - cross platform

I would like to install iFS software installed on NT and repository on Solaris.
If yes where can I find more information
about this?

Hello.
As Jaikishan mentions, you can install iFS on Windows NT, and the Oracle database (where iFS stores its data) on a Solaris box.
However, Jaikishan meant to say that you access your data through SQL*Net (JDBC), not SQL Views.
To get more information, refer to the iFS 1.1 for NT Installation Guide, chapter 1, where it gives the requirements for "installing Oracle iFS on a separate computer from Oracle8i" (such as installing the Oracle8i client on the NT box).
See in particular pages 1-6 through 1-9.
I hope that helps.

Cross-platform installs or upgrades

If I understand the license agreement correctly (and correct
me if I'm wrong), I'm able to install my copy of DW (and the rest
of the Suite) on both my PC and on my laptop, provided I don't use
them both at the same time. That's also provided that both my PC
and my laptop are on the same platform. I have a Windows PC and a
Mac laptop, so I'm out of luck. It seems a little unfair, and I
know there must be some kind of anti-piracy thing that they don't
allow this, but is there any consideration for changing this so us
legitimate users can do cross-platform installs without having to
purchase a second copy of the suite?

Your understanding of the licence agreement is correct. The
question of
a dual platform licence is raised in this forum on a regular
basis
because many indpendent developers are in the same situation.
However,
the answer is no - the licence is for one operating system
only.
At the moment, the Studio 8 CD-ROM contains both Mac and
Windows
versions, but I suspect that this may not always be the case.
Adobe
software is sold on separate disks.
I raised the question of dual licensing with an Adobe
executive at Adobe
Live in London a few months ago. He was sympathetic to the
problems of
an individual developer, but from the business point of view
the
situation was clear. It costs twice as much to create
programs for both
Windows and OS X, so if you want to use it on both systems,
you must
contribute towards both sets of development costs.
If you need to run the Windows version on your Mac, you can
always use
Virtual PC or one of the dual boot methods.

Re: Java Media Framework cross platform installation / setup on Mac / UNIX

JMF cross-platform doesn't support everything that the native performance pack versions support. I found this out the hard way too because pure Java JMF can't play AVI's from my digital camera but the Win32 enhanced JMF can. In particular, with my case pure Java JMF doesn't support all the frame rates that the others do.
I know Apple has been releasing some of the other APIs lately, like JAI. We might want to check over at apple.com and see if they have a native JMF impl.

Hi,
JMF work well on OS(32bits) and Java(32bits)

Golden Gate 11: cross platform replication

hello,
wonder if there are any cross platform (major) issues for establishing a two way replication between Sparc Solarix 5.10 to x86 Linux based hosts ?
RDBMS versions are same or 11.2 vs 12.1
We are planing to use 12C gg on a new installs.
thank you

Hi,
It would be better to ask this question in the GoldenGate community forum -

What is flashbridge wrapper cross platform?

I am trying to download an updated version of Adobe Flash Player and I can't complete the download until I close flashbridge wrapper cross platform but I don't know what this is. I don't see it as being open. Is it known as some other name???
Thank you for your help.

It's probably another program you have open. Maybe a game?
You might just restart your computer and then run the Flash installer before you run anything else.

DW CS3 cross-platform check in/out file locking

Here is my setup:
* Apple X-Serve file server (as a mapped drive on several
Windows XPsp2
machines and a shared drive on one Mac 10.4)
* Up-to-date Dreamweaver CS3 on every machine (3 windows, 1
mac)
* Enable file check in and check out (site preference for all
installations)
* Contribute compatibility (site preference for all
installations)
The problem is that when a file is checked in on the mac, the
file becomes
locked such that the windows machines can't check out the
file. All of the
windows machines check out and check in files with no problem
if the mac hasn't
touched them. Once the mac has checked in a file, I have to
"unlock" the file
via the right-click context menu on the file. (This unlock is
called "Turn off
Read Only" on the windows version.)
Windows FTP Log on check out after mac check in:
/.../public_html/help/faq.php - locked
/.../public_html/help/faq.php - error occurred - An FTP error
occurred -
cannot get faq.php.
/.../public_html/help/faq.php - unlocked
Apparently the Mac DW CS3 version of "Check in" and the
Windows DW CS3 version
of "Check in" are different and incompatible. Has anyone else
had this problem
or know of a solution? Removing the Mac is not an option.
This may or may not be related, but whenever a file is opened
on the operating
system other than last edited (mac opens windows edited file
or windows opens
mac edited file), the "Overwrite local copy" dialog shows up
when checking out
a file. When a compare is made of the server/local files,
there are no changes.
Both mac and windows have the same line ending settings in
the preferences.
http://www.hostingforum.ca/700363-cs3-cross-platform-check-out-file-locking.html
I'm having exactly the same issue. Has anyone experienced
this before, and if so have a solution?
Thanks in advance!

In your Site definition, you need to specify the Remote Info
of your
server, and then "Enable file checkin and checkout".

Cross platform pdf CD-rom with hyperlinks

Hi there, I am suffering with some cross platform impatience.
Trying to make a cd-rom...the structure is from a root folder-containing an html file which is opened then select links to open particular PDF documents (that all works fine)
In the PDF document there are hyperlinks to other PDf docs, word docs, zip files and powerpoiunt files. They all work perfectly on the PC but no links working from the mac.
Mac is running OS X 10.5.
I have created the links by using the advanced editing options, then add custonm link and add file. Then i select the appropraite file.
I did do it on an older version mac to test too (running mac OS X 10.4.10) and all the linking files worked except for the zip files - which try open a web browser. Thats ok though but then i put the cd-rom in the newer mac and nothing is linking (like dead links)
Thanks for any help - this is an urgent job i have to get out. So speedy replies will be GREATLY appreciated.

RMAN Full Database restore cross platforms

All
I have a database 10.2.0.3 running on Solaris 10 OS.
I have performed a full back up (level 0) of this database using rman utility with auto back up on. I am trying to worl on a scenario where I could restore this backup on another linux machine. so I copied over all the backup pieces into the target linux server. from a local RDBMS installation (10.2.0.3) on the linux machine I am trying to restore the database... but not successful yet..
when I issue restore spfile or restore control file from +<backup file name>+; the prompt continues to search in some location is responding back saying no back up piece found.. below is the sequece of step I am trying ..
1 set up env on the linux server
2 rman target /
(instance not started but rman allows connection)
3 set DBID=+<DB ID of the source database running on Solaris>+
it executes set dbid=
4 startup nomount
as the pfile/spfile is not available under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs on linux machine it picks up default pfile however but the instance stars no mount..
5 restore spfile from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/rman_bkp/c-300009955'
here it is not able to restore any thing.same is the case with control file.
Any ideas please advice

Thanks for the referance. I now understand that I may not be able to use transportable database command to transport the entire db. However there is a line in the +"Restrictions on Cross-Platform Transportable Database"+ which says +"The principal restriction on cross-platform transportable database is that the source and destination platform must share the same endian format. For example, while you can transport a database from Microsoft Windows to Linux for x86 (both little-endian), or from HP-UX to AIX (both big-endian), you cannot transport a whole database from HP_UX to Linux for x86 using this feature. You can, however, create a new database on a destination platform manually, and transport needed tablespaces from the source database using cross-platform transportable tablespace as described in "Cross-Platform Tranportable Tablespace: CONVERT DATAFILE or TABLESPACE"."+
I understand if we are ready to transport every tablespace from Source to Target individually, may then be able to replicate a transportable database. Does the transportable tablespace do not have any restrictions like the transport database has got in respect to Platforms and Endian? Please clarify.
Also is there a support matrix for thr transportable database and tablespaces which we could refer to ?
Regards!
SaratSarat,
The same restriction that is there for the transport of the whole database lies completely true for the transportable tablespace as well if you are going for the cross platform. Endian must match across the platforms than only you can do this otherwise, as like the database feature, you need to convert the source file to the target endian.
If you look at the reference doc for the Trasnport Tablespace command,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta063.htm#RCMRF1919
This restriction is documented there besides other restrictions
>
Restrictions and Usage Notes
The limitations on creating transportable tablespace sets described in Oracle Database Administrator's Guide apply to transporting tablespaces from backup, with the exception of the requirement to make the tablespaces read-only.
TRANSPORT TABLESPACE does not perform endian format conversion. If the target platform has a different endian format, then you must use the RMAN CONVERT command to perform the separate step of converting the endian format of the datafiles in the transportable set.

Cross platform migrate repository and oms, gets "EM Key Verification Error"

Hello,
I am trying to cross platform migrate repository and oms from Sun Solaris Sparc 64 bit to Linux x86-64bit.
Environment:
Original repository Oracle 10.2.0.3, OMS 10.2.0.5, Sun Solaris Sparc 64 bit
New repositoy Oracle 10.2.0.3, OMS 10.2.0.5, Linux x86-64bit
Following metalink note:
Subject: How To Move Grid Control Oms & Repository To Another Server
Doc ID: 853293.1
to step 4:
4. Point the new OMS to the new repository
can't get over emkey corrupt issue, gets error:
2009-10-13 14:07:24,570 [AJPRequestHandler-ApplicationServerThread-11] ERROR conn.ConnectionService verifyRepositoryEx.918 - EM Key Verification Error = Em key does not match with repos verifier
2009-10-13 14:07:27,910 [Shutdown] ERROR em.notification unregisterOMS.2573 - Error unregistering: EM Key is Missing java.sql.SQLException: EM Key is Missing
The newly installed additional OMS can only point to the original repository and can't point to the newly migrated repository.
Steps I did:
Install an addition OMS to point to original repository (make sure emkey is in repository)
create a new empty database on new host with a new name (is new name caused problem?)
migrate old repository to new (use export/import)
point new OMS to new repository by modifing emoms.properties
startup oms and gets emkey corrupt error
This metalink note does not help either:
Subject: The Em Key is not configured properly. Run "emctl status emkey" for more details.
Doc ID: 817035.1
I also have a SR open but still have no help from Oracle support. I did make sure the emkey is in the repository before migrate. There may be tricks that I don't know.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thank you for your help in advance.
Edited by: user1062137 on Oct 16, 2009 2:14 PM

Hi, I'm having the same issue.
Our original installation was on Windows 32bit with the repository and OMS on the same host. I want to move the repository to a linux 64bit host to make more resource available for everything. The new database is 11.1.0.7 though. As the Grid control release is 10.2.0.5 Oracle Support have confirmed that the 11g database is OK to use.
In the log I see a lot of this:
[AJPRequestHandler-ApplicationServerThread-5] ERROR conn.ConnectionService verifyRepositoryEx.911 - Invalid Connection Pool. ERROR = ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
ORA-06512: at "SYSMAN.MGMT_USER", line 10296

java.sql.SQLException: EM Key is Missing
Unfortunately that package is wrapped so I can't see what privs are required.
The instructions say (simplified here) either datapump or exp/imp to the new database, run some admin scripts, then update the emoms.properties with the new connection information. Thats it - start OMS again and it should work.
Thankfully I can turn the old repository back on while I sift through these logs.

Will �cross platform app� run on one platform?

Hi there,
please forgive my stupidity but if I have a J2ME app which contains one function calling functions from Blackberry library. Can this app be installed and run ok on non Blackberry phones, such as Nokia (suppose that Blackberry related code will not be called under this non-Blackberry phone), within Nokia emulator environment, or real Nokia phones?
It would be much appreciated if someone could shed some light here so that my time and effort to try it out could be saved.
Many thanks in advance,
qmei from London

Here, let me actually be helpfull...
It depends on the phone.
To be able to use the exact same app in multiple devices, when some are calling device specific code is possible, but it really does depend on a few factors...
1) You must not ever reference or instantiate any classes that import the device specific libraries. If any such classes are referenced directly in your application, the offending class will be loaded into memory, at which point the device's VM will notice that it's trying to reference a library that it doesn't recognize, and likely crash out.
2) You must only load such offending classes by name, and even then, there must only reference offending classes through an interface. So if you have a canvas class that imports nokia libraries, as well as other canvas classes that import other manufacturer libraries, you must make them all implement the same interface, and do something like this...
try{
Class cls = Class.forName("com.nokia.mid.ui.FullCanvas");
cls = Class.forName("NokiaGameScreen");
Object o = (cls.newInstance());
gameScreen = (GameScreen)o;
gameScreen.init(this);
}catch(Exception e){
//cant' use nokia!
//try another manufacturer...
}... so I'll explain in greater detail...
1) Class cls = Class.forName("com.nokia.mid.ui.FullCanvas");This line with throw an exception if no class matches the supplied argument. Generally you'd do something like this to check for the existance of one of the classes you intend to import. If this line does not throw an Exception, than instantiating the desired display should be fine. In this case, if we don't throws an Exception, we can be sure that we are running on a Nokia device.
2) cls = Class.forName("NokiaGameScreen");This line actually grabbs the class you intend to instantiate, which contains the offending import. Only when we reach this point does the VM load the class into memory, and validate it's imports. We have already determined that we are running on a Nokia device from the previous line.
3) Object o = (cls.newInstance()); Get an instance of the desired class.
4) gameScreen = (GameScreen)o;gameScreen is of the type 'GameScreen', which is an interface I defined and is implemented by all of my different manufacturer/device specific Canvas's.
5) gameScreen.init(this);I am simply calling the 'public void init(Midlet)' function I created that is exposed through my 'GameScreen' interface.
As you can see in the above example, I never directly reference the 'NokiaGameScreen' class, and instead indirectly reference it through an interface it's implementing called 'GameScreen'.
This type of 'cross platform' coding works well on many, but not all devices. It's a headache, but some devices go through the entire .jar file and validate each and every .class file during the installation process. These annoying phones will cancel the install if they find any imports that are not recognized. So even if the class is simply accidentally left in the .jar, with no possible way to ever load or instantiate it, the device may decide it won't let you run or install.
Because of the problem devices, I always create a separate build for each manufacturer, and exclude the other manufacturer's classes from the build entirely.

Cannot move HD DVCPRO movies cross-platform unless all systems are 5.1

The 5.1 Crossgrade creates an awkward situation whereby an HD DVCPRO movie exported at full rez ('Current Settings') on an Intel box cannot be viewed on a G4 unless that system too has FCP 5.1 installed - the codec changed to allow the Intel compatibility. Earlier installs of FCP do not allow playback in Quicktime Player - you can hear the audio but the video is white.
The easiest answer is of course to ensure everyone's on 5.1, but that's not going to work in every case. So - before we launch into an export to another format that IS cross-platform compatible, do we have any advice? We need to export a 2.2 hour feature on a MBP, and long transcodes are going to be a pain.
DV would work fine, if the codec doesn't suffer the same problem. Does it? And if not, is transcoding >2 hours to 24fps DV going to be painful?
All advice gratefully receieved. As long as it's not from Mr.Ham.

Ouch indeed. I wish 'that fellow' the best! We don't have that problem though (we've got all the MXF's and a full backup of all the MXF's too, and everything was imported in 5.1). Our problem is a client who doesn't have 5.1, so he can't see the media we're exporting from 5.1 on his G4 with FCP 4.5. But he only needs to view the media, and it doesn't need to be in FCP - Quicktime Player would be fine. So we want to give him the material in a format that is compatible with his system So my question is - does DV exported from 5.1 suffer the same crossgrade format issues? And is it very timeconsuming to trasnscode out to DV from HD DVCPRO?
Worst comes to worst he can get 5.1. But it'd be great for budgetary reasons if we could avoid that.

Cross platform CS on PC to CS3 on Mac does not work like video says

Your video on cross platform workflow states that you can import older Premier CS files on a PC into CS3 on a Mac. I tried this and get the message, "this project was saved in a aversion prior to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and cannot be opened on a Mac. Please refer to the User Guide for import options." I guess I have to assume then that the video, www.adobe.com/go/vid0236, is wrong about this? Can someone please explain how I can salvage the work I did 3 years ago on Premiere Pro 1 on a PC when I am now exclusively working on the Mac in CS3?
Thank you.

Ty,
This has come up a few times and the solution is to find a PC CS3 user, who will Open the Project and then Save it in CS3-CS4 for you. I does mean that you'll have to befriend a PC-person, but who knows, maybe you can reciprocate later on. In each previous instance, this workflow, PC to PC to Mac worked perfectly. Note: the same holds for Encore Projects, and there is some PC to PC incompatibilities between very early versions and later versions. I had to Open and Save an Enocre 1.0 Project in CS2, so a CS4 (only) user could then Open in CS4. This stuff happens, and the skip in Mac porting can play a role in it. If I had CS3 on my PC's, I'd do it for you, but CS2 will not hlep you.
I believe that P 6.5 was the last previous version ported for the Mac, until CS3.
Good luck,
Hunt

External Hard Drive won't appear on PC (want cross platform)

I have an external USB Hard Drive. I formatted it using the Disk Utility, OS Format and Journaling. Did a small partition in case I needed a system boot drive. Now my sis needed to backup her laptop (Dell laptop), but the drive won't appear in My Computer, it recognizes there is a USB device on the lower task bar, but no drive anywhere.
Do I have to reformat? what steps do I need to make this USB drive cross-platform friendly?
Paul

Hi, Paul.
You may not want to reformat the drive as FAT-32 since there is a limit on the size of the partition, the maximum file size, and other issues, especially if her Dell's drive is formatted as NTFS (FAT-32 does not support NTFS extended attributes). FAT-32 is unsuitable for backing-up Mac OS X volumes as it cannot preserve the extended attributes (permissions, etc.) employed by Mac OS X.
It's really best if you each have your own external hard drive for backup, as part of implementing a comprehensive Backup and Recovery solution, such as I use and detail in my "Backup and Recovery" FAQ. You also don't want one person inadvertently writing over another person's backups, which could happen if one is not careful. Furthermore, it is often easiest for recovery.
How one handles backup in cross-platform environments is tricky and depends on the native formats employed by the different computers involved, and whether backup will be performed over a network or by directly connecting backup drives to the computers one is backing up.
To enable her Dell to use the Mac-formatted drive, install Mediafour's MacDrive for Windows on the PC. MacDrive for Windows is probably the state-of-the-art application for enabling you to use Mac-formatted disks and hard drives on Windows-based PCs.
Good luck!

Steps to create Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces

hi
what is the steps to do Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces.
i want to perform this in my pc, i have linux and windows in same PC, i want to migrate from linux to windows and vice versa.
so can i know complete steps and commands to perform Cross-Platform Transportable Tablespaces. to get complete knowledge i am doing this so i can implement this in my office when any migrate issues comes. so once i do this i will get confidence so that i can do the same in my office which saves my time.
