Input file not a valid archive

Hi
Originally the application was written in CVI 6.0. I have now created a completly new project and workspace and added all the files.
The compilation works fine. But the error message I get when linking (build) is " error: Input file is not a valid archive: 'c:\Projects\........\bin\i7000.lib'. "
With another library I get the same problem: "uart.lib"
The other lib-files just work fine.
I saw in an old post a solution: to just recreate the project which I did. But it didn't work in my case.
Any help?
Cheers Andreas
Solved!

Hi Maha
Thanks for your investigations.
The LIBs I use "i7000.lib" resp. "i7000.dll" and "uart.lib" resp. "uart.dll" have an age of about 10 years AND are from a vendor/manufacturer that doesn't support these LIBs anymore.
So first of all we don't have access to the original c code and therefore can't compile/build any new LIB. And most probably they were not made with CVI.
Then as a second thought: these LIB/DLLs follow the standard and conventions of a microsoft LIB/DLL. So this should be some standard interface, even for CVI.
Third, I think there are 1000s of such old (Microsoft standard) libraries still in use all over the industry. Therefore I cannot understand why CVI 2013 is not capabable of linking them to the rest of the code.
Maybe I miss something in my thoughts. Like you mention already an older CVI is not a solution for us. Do you see maybe the possibility of another workaround?
For your understanding I attach the 2 LIBs in a zip-file. Maybe it helps?
Anyway have a nice wekend.
Andreas

You are talking about browser based AIR help and you are saying that in RoboHelp 9 you are not seeing AIR as an option to create the layout?

"Can't open file - not a valid pdf"

Hi,
This seems to have been asked before but I can't find an answer!!
I have a small app that i use for work which essentially just links to pdfs stored on a wordpress site
All has been working well until recently when android phones can no longer open the files - they get a "can't open file - not a valid pdf file" message
It seems to happen with many but not all the files. Some examples of problematic ones are:
http://uhbsosguidelines.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/transfusionmajorhaemorrhagecompressed. pdf
http://uhbsosguidelines.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/aagbi_la_toxicitycompress.pdf
http://uhbsosguidelines.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/anaphylaxis-under-anaesthesiaupdated02 14compresresave.pdf
Oddly, it seems only to be a problem when trying to open directly from the link in the app into adobe reader. If you download the file onto the phone THEN open it in Reader it works fine!
As I say, this seems to be a recent problem - has been working perfectly up until now.
I'd really appreciate it if you have any thoughts / suggestions - I don't want to have to ask all the users to install a different PDF reader app!

Thanks for reporting the issue. We have been able to reproduce it at our end and shall let you know when this gets fixed in one of the future releases.
Thanks,

File Not a Valid MPEG ERROR # 20402

I am trying to burn a demo reel DVD and whenever I go to burn it I get a error that says DVD ERROR FILE NOT A VALID MPEG ERROR [20404]. I removed a couple of the files that could possibly be suspect for being corrupted but I still get the error. By subtracting the amount of mega bytes still to burn from the amount of megs on the DVD I thought I had narrowed it down to just 2 of the videos. But alas no such luck. Is it possible that in the building of the motion menus it somehow didn't build them right? Its always towards the end of the disk when it decides to automatically cancel the build.

Hi Guys,
I've been using Encore for a few years, using AME to transcode all my Premiere Pro timelines and suddenly I've had a week of transcoding problems with Encore (CS5.1) saying everything from, I'm using the wrong aspect ratio to not a valid mpeg file. It was something different each time I fixed the previous problem (without it being a problem in the first place).
After reading all your helpful tips throughout the different forums and trying your suggestions, I have solved my problem. Thought I would post this to hopefully help some of you.
I simply let Encore transcode my timeline from Premiere Pro and my motion menus from After Effects (all assets in other words) making sure all are set to automatic. You can imagine how surprised I was when the disc popped out with the 100% complete message.
Thanks for all your posts, hope this can help others.

FTPAdapter - logical directory name - file not moved to archive directory

I created a simple ftp service to read the file from remote inbound directory and archive it to an "archive" directory using logical directories. I supplied the input and archive directories. The process reads the file from the input directory, but doesnt move it to archive directory. In the opmn logs i see the following message
File Adapter::Outbound> Since file could not be copied to specified archive directory, file : CUST__20081113002951.xml is being copied to a default archive directory :/apps/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/j2ee/home/fileftp/defaultArchive/
I checked the a) directory permission - this is the ftp users home directory , so it has all the bits set rwxrxrx- I even tried rwxrwxrwx, but same issue
b) there is enough space on the box
c) I can manually move the files around as the same user.
Secondly, the files under the default archive directories are being created as root. Not sure why. Our server is running as "oracle" user.
We are on 10.1.3.4
any idea how to troubleshoot this ?
Edited by: user9514124 on Nov 13, 2008 5:27 PM

Just a thought. You are trying to archive to an FTP user's home directory. I assume that you want to archive remotely (on the source server)? If so you need to specify UseRemoteArchive="true" in the WSDL file for the adapter. If you forget that the adapter archives locallly on the SOA Suite server and perhaps there the directories are indeed missing or have the wrong rights?
If you are using remote archiving and it doesn't work, have you tried to login with an FTP client and upload a file to the archive folder with FTP (as the FTP adapter user)? That is what the FTP adapter will do.
If you are using local archiving, check all the parent directories and make sure that they are fine as well as the target directory. Also look into the file ownership issue, the files should not be created as root if everything really runs as oracle! Perhaps someone has accidentally started something as root?
Good luck!

Downloaded Zip files not valid??

I have just downloaded 8.1.6 documentation libraries and find that the zipped files are being reported as being bad or not a valid archive. Perhaps someone from Oracle might get around to providing feedback when they have finally sobered up after xmas.

What causes RAW DNG files not to open in PSE 7?

I installed converter 5.5 but I still cannot get PSE to open DNG file. The error message is "could not complete the request . . file not a valid photoshop document". The error message is the same as I got before I installed 5.5 but the converter symbol is adjacent to the DNG photo file so perhaps that install worked if it didn't work before. I have no problem in opening or re-opening the file in the raw processing software. The manual says I should be able it open processed files (DNG) in PSE editor. Where did I go wrong?
Thank you
George

Thanks for the reply, LPF.

You are correct in that ACR 6.4 or later is required to read the Nikon D5100 raw files.
The last ACR that PSE 7 supports is ACR 5.5.
That is what I was afraid of.

Adobe does provide the free DNG converter for those who wish to continue to use old versions when they upgrade their camera. Some people actually prefer to do the conversion even if the camera is supported by the version of PSE that they have.
Unfortunately the Adobe DNG throws a message to the effect of "File was unable to be written" on every file, without any further explanation.

BKI0062E: The input file /oracle/SID/sapbackup/.file.lst is not valid.

Hi all,
   It has the following platform: SAP ECC6 in AIX 6.1 with Oracle Database
My question is: When I run a online backup from DB13 with util_file I have this error message :
BKI0062E: The input file /oracle/SID/sapbackup/.file.lst is not valid.
Knowing when I launch from the standard profile on Disk initSID.sap it works without problem
When we test manually with oraSID it works but by SIDadm its not work
Then you can mention or in configuration files BACKINT both users oraSID & SIDadm have rights to use
Many Thanks

As you see - your br*tools are more than two years old, many many errors have been fixed since. I would install the latest tools and try if the error is still there. You can even do that when the system is running.

While trying to download Oracle 8i/9i i keep getting the message
'Cannot open file it does not appear to be a valid archive'
Can someone please help me with this
i have tried to download this 10 times already but of no use
Thanks
Rimpy

I was getting a similar, if not the same, problem when I used IE 5.5 to download the file. It used to start extracting then stop about 75% of the way through and dump some error about the archive being corrupt and not being able to open it. After installing Netscape and disabling the download manager application, I was able to download and extrac the zip files with winzip 8 and also winrar without any problems.

In the page of download exists the information on the size of each available archive.
It compares this value with the one of the archive that you have in its machine.
Perhaps the archive has not been transferred completely.

Now to give a bit of a back story as to what happened before this. We were having a issue logging into the domain on this machine. The only way to get passed this was to unjoin and rejoin it to the domain then this happened. When I try to go to the CMC using the admin launch page I get the following error.

I'm a bit new to business objects software as this system was setup way before I started working for this company and noone that put this system in place has worked here for a while now. So I'm hoping some of you can help me out a bit or atleast point me in the right direction.

Disregard that last post. I have gotten into Central Management Console. My next question is, where in the CMC do I got to fix the following 2 errors I was getting? I figure that are both talking about the samething but since this is my first time I've been in the CMC I am not sure where to go to fix it.

Unable to install Safari 5: "not a valid short file name" error

Hi all,
Previous thread has been archived, but I thought I'd post an update on this issue, since we finally solved it!
To recap, I was getting an error on trying to install Safari which said "<username> is not a valid short file name", and the installation would fail. If installing under an admin username with a shorter name, the installation would succeed, but the same error message would occur for the original user when trying to launch Safari, during the initial configuration process. The problem also plagued some other installation processes, including (for example) Adobe Acrobat updates.
The problem turned out to be related to our redirection of user's profiles (My Documents, Application Settings etc.) to a fileserver. These are pointed to a file share named users on each office's primary file server, and this works fine for most purposes. However, we did not allow users read access to the "users" folder on the server in which their individual user directories were located (this was so users could not browse a list of employee names in this folder). This turned out to be causing the problem; by allowing read access to the folder, all the issues where cleared up.
Anyway, I hope this helps anyone else who may have experienced the same problem!

Excellent news, lab.
Many thanks for letting us know the resolution.
