Installation using Template

Hello All,
We are planning to automate the process of installing SAP application server based on Linux with all needed partitions (usr/sap/<SID> and /sapmnt/<SID>) and the SAP specific packages (e.g. sapconf). In addition to that we'd like to automate the process of installing a windows dns, ad and ntp server. And at last we want to automate the installation process of a nfs/nas server (lowest priority).
can someone suggest and share his/her experience to build this.
Regards,
Mohit

Some clients Can't open XLSX files in Libraries using template.dotx but can open xlsx files in libraries using template.doc

If I create a new library using any Excel/Word template - DOC, DOTX, XLS, XLTX and then upload a XLSX document (or docx) then some of my clients experience issues opening the document. My work around in the past has been to resave the document
as XLS or DOC. Interestingly Old Libraries (Libraries using template.doc) don't have a problem with xlsx or docx documents. (This only works because most of the clients experiencing the problem only open a few documents and we only have to
resave a few documents. I don't know why these clients have this problem though.)
We are now testing a new Terminal Server implementation. One with OpenOffice instead of Microsoft Office. We can't open xlsx files on new libraries but can on old libraries. (docx files are not a problem though) I found a couple of
work arounds.  One work around is to click on the down arrow by the document name and select "Edit in Excel" which fails, but then clicking on the document name after will then prompt you to Open/save the document. Clicking on Open
successfully opens the document in OpenOffice. (So rather tedious for the users but nothing has to be changed to make it work.)
The other option is to create a template from one of the libraries that is working and then use it to create a new library and save my documents to the new library. Then I'm prompted to Open/Save the xlsx documents in the library.  This
option is less tedious for the user but then I have to go through and recreate any libraries using template.dotx. Creating a new library using the standard Document Library option and selecting Word or Excel 2003 does not resolve the issue - it has to
be created from a template created from an existing library that works in the Terminal Server implementation.
My boss is opting for the latter option unless I can come of with an alternative that doesn't mean additional steps for the users. Training is an issue because most of the Terminal Server users are shop floor workers.
My question is, is there a patch or fix that addresses this issue or any other work arounds that would be less work?
Additional Info: Our Sharepoint implementation is the Enterprise version is installed but we do not have the Excel related Features activated (and these can't be activated due to licensing). I'm not sure if that matters or not but it is
a different configuration from how most SharePoint installations are configured. SP1 is installed. I have not installed any recent CU's. Versions I see in Patch Status screen include 14.0.6029.1 (primarily) with some additional features
reporting 14.0.6105.5, 14.0.6107.5, 14.0.6112.5 and 14.0.6114.5.

We have tried a couple of additional things.
We uninstalled OpenOffice and are testing LibreOffice. I also installed CMIS from the SharePoint Administrator's toolkit, added the solution, and deployed it to my sites. The "Producer" feature is activated on the site I am testing with.
I created a new library and posted some docx, doc, and xlsx files to it. All files can be opened as Read-only from the Library list. The only way I have found that I can edit the files is to Open the Library with Explorer.   I then deactivated
the producer feature and tested opening the SharePoint documents from Explorer and it worked the same.
So am I misunderstanding what the CMIS Producer feature is for?

Lost prompt to update pages that use template..

Yes I know I should not use templates but I do on very small sites with under 10 pages. When making adjustments to the templates I used to get a prompt asking me if I want to update pages that use that template, but I no longer get that. I must have changed something but I am wondering how I can change it back. I can manually update but I always forget and I do not wantto go that route....anyone know how I can get that prompt back to update pages that use template? Thanks much!

Well you have suggested SSI's before instead Murray....
No, I've suggested SSI's instead of Library items, or a combination of SSI's and a template instead of nested templates, but I've never suggested using SSI's instead of templates, although it is a workable solution.
I dont think it matters what I have in the code. It used to prompt me whenever I changed ANYTHING and had to save.
I do. However, try this simple test -
1. Create a new, blank HTML file.
2. Save it with FILE | Save as Template... (verify that the page is saved in the "Templates" folder)
3. Spawn a new child page from this template with FILE | New > Page from Template.
4. Save this page with any name you prefer.
5. Return to the template page and change the title from Untitled document to "Whatever". Save it. Are you prompted? You should be.
If you are not prompted then there is something systemically wrong with your DW installation.

Questions on using templates [CS3]

Greetings,
I'm trying to figure out the best way to approach an InDesign task, and my rank-novice-level experience isn't cutting it. Normally I'd read through a gazillion help pages and do a bunch of tutorials to try and teach myself enough to answer the questions on my own - but I'm a new parent (~2 months), so don't really have the time to take my usual approach; indeed, it took me several days just to write up this question and post it. So any help is *much* appreciated!
What I'm trying to do: create ~80 cards for a board game. Each will have similar layout, so creating a template file seems like the way to go. I've never worked with templates before, but doing so seems straightforward enough for things like text, or for an illustration which would be different on every card. However:
Difficulty #1: Some cards are of one type - call it type A - while others are of type B. Several graphical elements are always the same for a given type, but are different for A vs. B. I'm sure there must be a simple way to say "this file uses all items for type A, and not B", but I'm not sure if this would be best done using different templates, different master pages, setting which layers are visible on an imported photoshop file, or some other technique. (Did I mention I'm a total novice with InDesign?)
Difficulty #2: There are half a dozen graphical elements (icons), each of which may or may not appear on a given card. Using templates or master pages for all permutations of their visibility seems like a bad idea. But if I simply delete the not-shown objects from each file (assuming one can do such a thing when using templates), that makes later changes (which might involve re-adding them) difficult. In Photoshop or Illustrator - both of which I'm more familiar with than InDesign - I'd simply make the layer/object non-visible; is there an equivalently simple way to "get rid of this object, but let it be easy to bring back" in InDesign? (I've found the "nonprinting" attribute, but that doesn't seem to hide it from view while editing, which makes verifying the layout as correct rather onerous.)
Trying to look ahead #1: Eventually, I'd like to create an InDesign document which imports all of the single card files into an easily printable layout (9 cards to a page); I'm told this is possible. Is there anything I should know to avoid shooting myself in the foot / making this task unreasonably difficult? (eg: if InDesign throws tantrums when you try to import multiple documents based off the same template, I'd sure like to know that before making 80 cards based off the same template.)
Many thanks to anyone who can help!
--Eric

I'd make the card file at the trim size, and add a bleed allowance if you need one. Export this to PDF withthe bleed, but NO MARKS.
Ah, here's where I display my novice status:
1. So you'd suggest just one card file, rather than one file per card all using the same template?
(If relevant: it would also be useful to be able to distribute 9-up PDFs of, eg, the only the 16 cards which changed in a particular revision.)
2. I'm familiar with bleed allowance, but am guessing at what you mean by "trim size", and don't know at all what you're referring to by Marks? My experience with actual pre-press production is pretty much nil.
I should probably mention, since I didn't earlier, that there is a downside to overriding master objects. If you apply a new master, or reapply the old one for some reason, the overridden objects remain and new master objects will be replaced where missing. Also, if you make any chages to an overridden object, that attribute, such as size or position, for example, loses it's link to the master and will no longer update if the master object is edited.
Mm, that is a difficulty; if I'm understanding this correctly, if I (eg) replaced or moved one of the icons on the master page, it would change on every card for which it was visible (printable), but not on those cards where it had been overridden to be non-printing - only a problem if I have to change which icons show on which cards, but that will certainly happen from time to time.
Is there a way to tell an object "stop overriding and re-load all your information from the appropriate master object"?

Custom installation using XE

Basic installation of SOA Suite does not seems to work, I don't why.
I have tried Custom installation using XE Database which works but Apcahe
Web Server is throwing exceptions in installation phase (when installation process tries to launch unmanaged Apache module when configurating it) so it terminates too. So boring!
Is it possible to use XE's Http server as SOA Suite's Http Server?
How to configure that?

AFAIK, there is NO compilation of Apache on the win32 platform. If you use Vista please verify that it is certified to install SOA Suite there. Another common pitfall is not reading the installation guide and using computers with DHCP....

How to restrict height of table in smartform without using template

Hi Gurus,
I am facing a problem with table in smartform.I have 5 records in my table.If i print all 5 then table is fine.But if i get only one record in table then size of the table reduces to one row.Is there any way that i can keep my table height same as for 5 records,though i pass 1 record.I cannot use template here,because page-breaks are used in the form .
Your solutions are highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Meenakshi

Hi,
As far my knowledge goes, If there is one record then table lines will take the height of only one row. You cannot Restrict it to take height of 5 rows.
A temporary solution could be to add empty records in your internal table so that the table uses all the 5 rows in the table while printing in the smartform. Since they are empty records your smartform will not display any data but will only use the height.
If you have 1 record add 4 empty records, Similarly if you have 2 records add 3 empty records...
This way all time the table will take the height of 5 rows.
As i said earlier this could be a temporary solution.
Thanks,
Hari Prasad.

How to filter records in EIS drill through using template SQL

Hi,
I'm looking for an option to filter records in EIS drill through using Template SQL.
For eg: If we user runs drill through on 2011, it should restrict display of Jan & Feb and should display records for other months.
I tried using NOT IN clause, but got an error.
Can any one help me in understanding how this needs to be defined in template SQL
Thanks in advance

Hi Glenn,
I'm able to filter the records for specific periods.
However, I'm facing another problem now.
When I try to run drill through I get 'OLAP_error (1192025): Unknown Error: Not a valid Entry' error.
This is happening when I include condition as ((($$ab.ACCOUNT_CODE-COLUMN $$) IN ($$Account-VALUE$$)))
Here, ACCOUNT_CODE is field from Account dimension table and 'Account' is the name of the dimension.
If I remove this statement and run drill through, it runs but shows data for all accounts (irrespective of the Account selected)resulting in incorrect data.
Our RDBMS is Oracle. Can you please help me with this
Thanks

How do I share tabs between my different Firefox installations using the new Firefox Accounts system?

I am using Firefox Nightly (30.a1, 2014-02-18, x64) on my laptop computer (Windows 8.1 Pro x64) and I was using Firefox Beta on my Nexus 5 (Android 4.4.2). Recently, Mozilla announced the new Firefox Accounts system (which is replacing the old Firefox Sync Account) and I created a Firefox Account for my laptop Nightly installation. Since the new Firefox Account doesn't work with the old Firefox Sync Account, I replaced my Android installation of Firefox Beta with Firefox Nightly and signed into Firefox Account on my Android. However, when I attempt to send a tab from my Android installation to my laptop installation using the "Share to Nightly" intent, Nightly asks me to set up a Sync account, which is impossible to complete in my laptop Nightly installation. I've tried replacing my Android Nightly installation with an Android Aurora installation, but the same problem occurs.
What's worse is that even with both my laptop and Android installations signed into the same Firefox Account, I cannot see any information being synced between the 2 installations. No history is being shared, and I cannot see the open tabs list from the other device. I cannot pass tabs between my phone and my laptop, which is something I used every week as I visited websites and read my RSS feeds on my phone. Does anyone know how to share tabs using the new Firefox Accounts? Does anyone know why Firefox Accounts does not seem to be syncing data between my 2 installations?

Unfortunately with further investigation, Roland informed me that share tab was removed[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965811]

Sidecar AIR Runtime install with Native .exe installer using ADT

I have packaged my AIR app into a Native .exe installer using ADT. If the user does not have air installed and they are connected to the internet, the AIR runtime is automatically installed.
Is it possible to package the AIR runtime into the exe so that if the user is not online the AIR runtime is installed?
I have experimented with the sidecar install and .air file but ideally I want to only have the one file(.exe). I already have a distribution licence from Adobe.

This isn't available at this time, but I think it's a great idea. You might want to add a feature request for this over at ideas.adobe.com and bugbase.adobe.com, or review and vote for these current feature requests if they provide for what you're looking for:

Alv report using templates........urgent

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what is meant by ALV report using template. I have worked on ALV reports. Can you throw some light on USING TEMPLATE. If anybody have some document. please send it to me.

Hi
Check whether any templates defined in your orgn for different types of objects.
For example for ALV reports so and so template and for Scripts something defined.
A template means I feel a std way of displaying data as per the orgn process/standards.
check for that.
Or use the same Std function modules and display the data and enquire further what's the template is?
