Installing Frame Maker 12 in Virtual Environment

I am having trouble with a volume license and installing FrameMaker 12 on a virtual machine or with VMware thinapp. Has anyone had success with this process?

I can install FrameMaker with no issue, but the activation does not carry over per user. Wants me to input serial per user. This is not viable in our non-persistent environment. I had no issues with FM9 in the past and with FM12 this is how I was told by an Adobe support rep to take care of it. I have tried using CCP and Application Manager, but those do not seem to work well with FM, unless I am just trying to do it wrong. If I could package the serial number into the install and be able to bypass the redundant need for an AdobeID (which was also told could be generic since we have a volume license) then I could get this to work. As long as the software is only used by the number of people entitled to this volume license I was told I would be compliant. Any suggestions on how to roll this serial into this install so the users will not be prompted after install?

The procedure entry point getlogicalprocessorinformation could not be located in the dynamic link kernel32.dll . I got this error after downloading and installing Frame MAker 12. My system os is service pack 2.

The above mentioned error is displayed when i open Adobe Framemaker 12 after installing it.

You don't mention which specific version of the operating system that you are using - Windows XP, Vista, or 7 and whether you're using a 32-bit or 64-bit version.
FWIW, kernell32.dll is a Windows system-level module, so it's possible that you have some corruption in your Windows installation which is preventing FM from launching.
Also, 2Gb of RAM is a bit lean for FM.

Installing same versions of Frame maker on one system (7.0 and 7.2)

I am using Frame maker 7.2 for creating user manuals. The tool we are using for generating OLH is
Web Works Publisher for frame maker 7.0. Currently I have installed FM 7.0 and WWP on virtual machine
while I work directly on FM 7.2 version and only use 7.0 from Virtual machine while creating OLH
This is a very complicated process as I have to copy all my files into the virtual machine folder
and then create Help files.
Can we install both 7.0 and 7.2 version on the same system (not virtual)
so that when I document the manuals on 7.2 fm, I can close the files and open the same file in 7.0
versions to generate help files.

Yes, you can have multiple versions installed on the same machine. I have one that's running 7.2, 8, and 9... no problems.
As far as 7 and 7.2 go, if it was me, I'd just go with 7.2. There isn't a difference in the file format, so files can be opened with either version. And 7.2 is more stable, has fewer bugs, and better import/export filters.

Can CUCM 8.5 version be installed on a DL 380 G5 server in Virtual environment (Vmware Esxi 4.0 or 4.1)? Or does it have to be only installed in UCS boxes for VMware?

Can CUCM 8.5 version be installed on a DL 380 G5 server in Virtual environment (Vmware Esxi 4.0 or 4.1)? Or does it have to be only installed in UCS boxes for VMware?
1. If the installation is possible for the Vmware instance on a DL 380 G5/G6 server , will that be supported by Cisco ?
Similary is the case with CUIC 8.5. Has anybody worked on these do suggest ideas.

Virtualized UC applications from Cisco are only supported on the UC on UCS platform using ESXi 4.0, 4.0 Update 1, or 4.1 - hypervisor support may vary based on application.

for which I have downloaded the VM template files for x86-64 processor as matched to my server configuration.
So how should I go with visualization.I have checked a few things over the net which says about Oracle virtual box, oracle virtual Server, oracle virtual manager.
I am in confused state what to consider to do visualization.

Local Outlook in virtual environment crash when we add long path attachment

We have MS Office 2007 install localy on our Windows 2008 R2 server with App-V SP3 client. We have configured Outlook to start in the Acrobat Reader XI virtual environment for the pdf file preview. When we try to add a long path attachment in Outlook,
Outlook crash.
If we run Outlook outside the Reader virtual environment, Outlook does not crash. If i try to make a procmon to find a solution, Outlook freeze but does not crash and procmon does not return interresting information. I have try to start Outlook in another
virtual environment, it still crash.
We have made some more testing. We have discovered that Outlook crash on file path longer than 242 character. Normally, the max path in Windows is 260 character. Thats why we does not understand why we have this bug.
Any idea someone to solved this problem?

The path of the file we try to add to the mail is something like this :
G:\Urbanisme\Volet Réglementation\Certificats de conformité\Conformité - Environnement_MDDELCC (LQE)\2015\LQEnv_Carré Belvédère-Gestion Élias_milieux humides_2015-02-27.gaegra\LQenv_projet de développement _ Carré Belvédère_2015-03-23_marjac.docx
I am not sure about the Q drive you talk about... I know than in App-V 4, there was Q drive, but we use App-V 5 SP3 (i forgot to tell in my original post).
Thanks for your help Rorymon!

How to install the SCS in a switchover environment

I am install just the Java stack on windows 2003 with SQL Server 2000. We have a cluster set-up with two server (srv159 and srv158). srv159 is the main server and srv158 is the failover node. We have a virtual host set for the DB, 'ENDODB' and a virtual host set-up for the SCS, 'ENDOSCS'.
I tried reading the instructions in High Availability PDF document titled, 'SAP Web Application Server in Switchover Environments', but the instructions seemed to be geared more for a Unix environment not a windows environment.
How do I install the SCS in a switchover environment? Do I need to install on srv159 then switchover to srv158 and install there? Or do I need a shared drive like I used for the DB install?
What I did do was install the SCS on srv159 using the ENDOSCS virtual host, then I installed the Central Instance using the ENDODB virtual Host and a cluster shared drive for the DB data files. That install was successful and I was able to connect to the system using the Visual Admin tool.
I then tried to set-up the switchover for the SCS. I switched the cliuster over to point to srv158 and install the SCS using the ENDOSCS virtual host.
The system did not work correctly. I tried logging into Visual Admin but I was getting a message that it could not find the default Logon info.
Do I need to copy over some files from srv159 to srv158? Or should I be doing a single SCS install and load to a shared drive?

Thanks for your reply Mike. Unfortunately, that OSS note seemed to be directed at an ABAP + Java Add-in install. We have a Java only install. We ended up installing the SCS on a shared cluster drive, which seems to be working and failing over correctly. However, I am still not completely comfortable that this is the best way to install the SCS in a failover environment.

Running MII on a Wintel virtual environment + hybrid architecture questions

Hi, I have two MII Technical Architecture questions (MII 12.0.4).
Question1: Does anyone know of MII limitations around running production MII in a Wintel virtualized environment (under VMware)?
Question 2: We're currently running MII centrally on Wintel but considering to move it to Solaris. Our current plan is to run centrally but in the future we may want to install local instances local instances of MII in some of our plants which require more horsepower. While we have a preference for Solaris UNIX based technologies in our main data center where our central MII instance will run, in our plants the preference seems to be for Wintel technologies. Does anybody know of any caveats, watch outs or else around running MII in a hybrid architecture with a Solarix Unix based head of the hybrid architecture and the legs being run on Wintel?
Thanks for your help

11g in virtual environment

Good day to all,
I have certain questions regarding Oracle 11g working under virtual environment, and any information in this regard is most welcome.
We are planning to migrate multiple existing databases(say 9i, 8i, 10g) on one bigger server with sufficient RAM, CPU and other resources.
We are planning to migrate all the above databases on 11g and use some virtual environment software to install multiple 11g databases on that server.
I think the migration should not be a big issue as we will use simple export and import.
My questions and doubts in this regard are as follows
(1) Is it practical to run production databases in virtual environment
(2) Is 11g is mature enough to be used in such environment(or 10g r2 will be better option)
(3) If one runs multiple databases or instances in virtual environment, how the Kernel setting of one database will effect the other one as I have heard that these virtual software’s( for example VMware) shares some common files for system resource.
(4) Which OS will be a better option in such scenario(HP UX, SUN Solaris, Windows....)
(5) If any one is working in such scenario can suggest his or her own experience.
(6) Any other suggestion will be appreciated.
Regards
Ans

(1) Is it practical to run production databases in virtual environment Yes
(2) Is 11g is mature enough to be used in such environment(or 10g r2 will be better option) Yes. Infact, there are some really good features of 11g that you may want to consider. Deciding 10g or 11g, depends on the type of databases are in hand. It would be better if you'd do some testing on both environments to come to a better conclusion.
(3) If one runs multiple databases or instances in virtual environment, how the Kernel setting of one database will effect the other one as I have heard that these virtual softwareâ€™s( for example VMware) shares some common files for system resource.

(4) Which OS will be a better option in such scenario(HP UX, SUN Solaris, Windows....) Depends on lot of things. If you use Oracle 11g, you may want to conseder Oracle VM with Oracle Unbreakable Linux/Oracle Enterprise Linux
Hope it helps.

Oracle file handling in Virtual Environment

Hi Gurus,
We have a 9i environment, where file handling is being done till now.
The client now got migrated to 10g, on a virtual environment.
We are using external tables, and doing file operations (populating CSV files etc..) till now on 9i.
I heard that the concept of files (directory paths) does not exist on the VDC(Virtual Data Center) environment.
Can anyone clarify on this, why this can't happen, and if so what is the workaround for such cases.
Thanks & Regards
RK Veluvali

I've never had such problems, but I've sure heard about them (or problems like them) a fair amount over the years.
If you can report specific problems to Adobe here (1 problem per report), there is a chance it will do some good:
Recently active topics in Photoshop Family about Photoshop Lightroom
Note: one thing I realized way back is that I did not want to leave anything up to Lightroom (or chance), file-handling-wise, and so always assure my naming convention does not result in duplicate files. I NEVER want a -2 added to any of my files (ok, sometimes when testing, but otherwise: not). So anyway, to make a long story short, I recommend conventions and workflow which avoids the drama as much as possible.. - good luck (sorry I've not been more help..).

SWTBot tests inconsistent for Kepler in Windows Virtualized Environment

Hallo,
I am using SWTBot to test an Eclipse E4 RCP Application based on Eclipse 4.3 (Kepler).
My SWTBot tests are run as part of a Maven / Tycho Build.
When I launch the maven build on my development workstation the tests are working.
On the build server the maven build is trigged by TFS / MSBuild
Before the 6th of June, 2015 , the tests used to run both in my development environment and in the build environment.
Now, after 6th of June, the tests are not working anymore on the Build server (Vindows Virtualized Environment). There was no code change in the period, but now the tests are failing.
Currently the tests executed on the build server are always returning an error similar to this: "Could not find widget : .. "
As described above, the same tests are working on my local development environment; and the same tests used to work on the build server in previous months.
So,
(1) I am wondering if there was any change in the SWTBot code, that resulted in an incompatibility with Windows Virtual Environment.
(2) Is it possible to get the state of the update site before June 2015 ?
- If so please, tell me how
Thank you in advance for spending your time on this

I love Windows on my MacBook, but I'm not a gamer (at all) and I know gaming is the ultimate road-test. Your post indicates you are likely competent enough to draw a thorough conclusion on your own, but I notice you have not considered malware, spyware, virus & anti-virus interference. I suppose this was likely taken care of by a fresh install, but maybe reinfection happened just as fast. One thing I have done is to open Device Manager and identify + update all possible stale drivers. Apple is not that aggressive at providing new ones.
Must be vexing to have this happen, but it is an interesting post, since people everywhere are wondering if Apple hardware really IS as good as PC....
I invite gamers everywhere to add to this..... Cheers

Local Application inside Virtual Environment

Hi,
I have a bunch of plugins etc as AppV packages in 5.0sp3. Via the RunVirtual key, I have iexplore.exe set to run inside a Virtual Environment. When this is done, IE has access to all of the required Virtual plugins as it should. So far,
so good.
However, I have Adobe Reader 9.4 installed locally. If iexplore doesn't run in the VE (by removing the RunVirtual key), the Adobe Reader plugin works fine. PDF's open in the browser as expected.
If iexplore runs inside the VE, the Adobe Reader PDF helper is available, yet, it will explicitly launch the reader application as opposed to displaying the PDF in the browser.
Point to note: I do have Reader as an AppV package but users are experiencing issues with the application hanging when accessing PDF documents. So I'm now testing the provisioning of Reader as a locally installed app rather than via AppV.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Did you tried HF1 for App-V 5.0 SP3 yet? I don't know if this will fix your issue with Adobe Reader but HF1 does fixes some Adobe Acrobat related issues. So it's worth trying.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/appv/archive/2015/03/18/hotfix-package-1-for-microsoft-application-virtualization-5-0-service-pack-3-is-now-available.aspx
Good find. The reason I want to localize Reader is because I'm pretty convinced AppV Reader is what is hanging IE when users/IE needs the Reader plugin in my XenApp 6.5 environment. This will be interesting to see if it helps the situation.
