Invalid image file (bad image signature)

Whenever I try to Multicast now, I'm getting the following error message. The machines that are assigned to receive the Multicast image successfully boot to the zenworks imaging screen and get a ticket, but once the image is to start it's booted out to the linux screen with this error message and reboots. If I try the same exact image manually, it works fine.

Invalid image error when saving to pdf

I keep getting an invalid image error when saving a MS Publisher file as a pdf. Can anyone help with solving this issue?

You need to provide system and version info and explain how you actualyl produce the PDF. Unless you use the Acrobat PDF printer, I don't see how Adobe software would be involved in any of this, as recent versions of MS Office products can save PDFs natively...

Image Signature Field for form

Is there a way to add a image signature field (not by certificate) to a form? Say, someone takes a stylus on a tablet pc, and signs their name in a box...and that actual signature image is saved within the form. Is there a way to complete this?

I have figured out how to do this. Its all based on the signature and has nothing to do with image fields, signature fields or LifeCycle.
Create a digital signature (I used Windows Certificate Store type ) as normal.
After creating your signature, Select Create New Appearance from the Appearance combo box.
3.     Give the new Appearance a title. You can have multiple appearances for one signature.
4.     Click Imported Graphic and then click File. (The Signature image can ONLY be PDF!!)
5.     Configure the text as required by clicking the checkboxes. Click OK when done
6.     After you are done sign the document with the new appearance.
Hope this helps.
Who knows why Adobes Help is so pathetic, couldnt this have been explained somewhere so people dont have to come to the forum for answers.

Invalid CEN header ( bad signature )

I get this reeor when I try to import .par file in NWS.
invalid CEN header ( bad signature )
also say that The Plugin "com.sap.portal.plugins.config-archiver" caused an exception during the unpack opreation

Hello! experts,
I got the same error but i manage to solve it.
While trying to import the par file, please ensure the 'Project root folder' is giving correctly.
In my case, when i got the error, the folder i initially selected was not there.
Check if the Project folder you are selecting is there or folder is read / write.
This will solve your problem.
Thanks!

My input certainly wasn't intended to ba sarcastic, so please forgive me if it seemed so.
Seroiusly, always do a search before updating, http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?objID=f1201&search=Go&q=update+problem, NI is flaky at best IMHO, did you heck with them yet to see if a patch is available?
Always wait a few weeks before updating, a reinstall is a headache, goodluck!

I get an 'Invalid Image Type' error when using the Locate Features. (Evaluation version)

I'm using the Evaluation Version of Vision Builder. I Simulate Acquisition using my own image (jpg), which loads fine. However, when I try to use any of the Inspection Steps features, other than Enhance Images, I get an "Invalid Image Type" error.

Hello,
Vision Builder functions usually work with a certain image type. For example, all the functions listed under Binary (in the menubar) will only work with binary images. Likewise, color functions will work for color images and grayscale will work for grayscale images.
You can convert a color image into a grayscale by extracting a color plane and a grayscale image can be converted to binary using the threshold function.
Hope this helps!

LabWindows/CVI and IMAQ - Invalid Image Type when saving bitmap

I create and image, grab it, then display it, but when I go to save it using imaqWriteBMPFile, I get an error that maps to Invalid Image Type, so I use imaqCast to cast it to an IMAQ_IMAGE_U8 type (which is what the orignal image was created as), then it works, except that my image has changed, that looks like the contrast or something has changed. Any suggestions?

image.bmp ‏302 KB

What kind of camera & IMAQ board are you using? I have seen similar problems when a 12 bit camera is used. The image is acquired as a 16 bit image, and if you just convert it to an 8 bit image, it ends up looking like the one you attached. To correctly convert to 8 bits, you need to shift the appropriate number of bits during the conversion. For a 12 bit camera, that would be 4 bits.

IMAQ resample invalid image type

Hi,
I am rewriting an old non-versatile version of a VI. I don't have much experience but I have the old VI as sort of a template for what I need to do. It's weird but although I try to do things exactly the same way, they don't work.
I acquire a high resolution image from the camera (IMAQ Acquire) which is too big (1280x1024). I want to resample (IMAQ Resample) it to 256x320px.
I get the error message: Error -1074396080 occurred at IMAQ Resample Invalid image type.
The probe I put in to read the Image Src shows the image correctly and tells me it is an unsigned 16 bit image. This should be a valid image type, right?
Dennis
P.S. I use LabView 2009

No, not right. IMAQ Resample doesn't support U16 type (at least up to VDM2011). Refer to Help.
Convert your image to I16 (if possible) prior to resampling.

IMAQ Low pass filter failed with invalid image border.

Hi Expert,
I try to use imaqLowPass function. I expect the input image could be processed by low pass filter.
But this is a run-time error showed "Invalid image border".
Can somebody tell me what's going on?
Solved!

Problem resolved.
I add a border to the image.
Needs to take care the border size and filter size.

Imaq invalid image type

Hi,
i try to analyse a video image. it is an image typ 32 bit rgb. In the sub vi I try to count the pixel with a red value greater than the green and the blue value. Therefore i need to split the colorplanes.
After that I write the values in an arry to count them.
Sometimes the Error "Invalid image typ" appears. I´m not sure why this error sometimes appeared and sometimes not.
I hope someone can help me to find the solution.

RED Pixel.vi ‏45 KB

Hello,
does the error happen only, when your ROI is passed as an empty cluster? So, if you have an active ROI, there is no error right?
Make sure your ROI is not empty, or alternatively you could use "IMAQ SetImageSize" after allocating the memory for the mask (set the size to the same size as the input rgb image with "IMAQ GetImageSize".
Does this help?

Strange behavior with invalid image type error

Hi,
I'm currently developing a stereo vision application. I started with the StereoVisionExample provided by NI but want to use my own camera drivers.
I created the GetImage vi (see attachment) that accepts the camera handle and an allocated image, reads the acquired image from the camera, transforms the image array to a color image and returns it. I tested it with the TestVI (attached) and it works perfectly well.
Now I wanted to integrate it as image source for the given example application and replace the ExpressVIs but this doesn't work. I get a 1074396080 invalid image type error as soon as the GetImage SubVI is called. The only possibility to run it without an error is to set the image type to RGB64 but in this case the image is not shown correctly. I get the error no matter if I choose Grayscale, HSL or RGB32 for the initial image creation. The strange is that with the TestVI everything works perfect, even with HSL that I'm using to get the grayscale image or RGB32. Basically I didn't do anything except copying the VI from Test to StereoExample. It's driving me crazy that the GetImage VI works perfect in the one but not in the other VI with the same data! What's wrong with that?
I appreciate your help.

Hello NicoSch!
In order to reproduce the error, I need the image data generated by the image driver you are using. Please wire the 2D array with the image data to a control on the frontpanel and run the VI. With the data now displayed, right-click the control and choose "Data Operations > Make Current Value Default" to save the data in the control. Please attach the VI to a new forum post.
Additionally, can you describe the type of image acquired by the camera? Is the 2D array a 32bit RGB image? What camera and LabVIEW version are you using?

Georg

DPS: Invalid Image

Hey there.
Today i wanted to update an app, built with DPS. Everthing went fine, but after uploading the binary i got following mail:
Dear developer,
We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for "XXXXXX". To process your delivery, the following issues must be corrected:
Invalid Image - For iOS applications, icons included in the binary submission must be in the PNG format.
- If your application supports the iPhone device family, you must include a square icon of exactly 57x57 pixels.
- If your application supports the iPad device family, you must include a square icon of exactly 72x72 pixels.
For Mac OS X applications, icons included in the binary submission must be in the ICNS format and must include a square 512x512@2x image.
Once these issues have been corrected, go to the Version Details page and click "Ready to Upload Binary." Continue through the submission process until the app status is "Waiting for Upload." You can then deliver the corrected binary.
Regards,
The App Store team
I also saved all icons again (PNG, save for web, no interlace, no convert to srgb), but still got the same message.
What can i do?
DPS App Builder tells me, that all images are fine ...
Thanks a lot
Chris

I don't know why, but today i uploaded the SAME binary as yesterday and now it works fine Oo.
It's not really an correct answer, but everyone with this problem should try it a few hours/day later.

[SOLVED] Can't boot Windows 8 using grub2. invalid EFI file path

English is not my native language. Please excuse typing errors.
I have just successfully installed Arch linux with grub2 as its boot manager. I
followed the arch beginner guide. I've used grub before and I'm familiar with
it, so chose to use grub instead for efistub. I installed os-prober and
ran grub-mkconfig to create the grub.cfg file. The problem now is that I recieve
an error when I try to boot windows 8. I have two drives (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb)
and I believe both are EFI-systems.
However, it's not very important for me to use grub, so if booting into windows
8 is easier using efistub, I will try that.
The computer is ASUS ux32vd with a hybrid disk with 25GB on the SSD and 500GB on
the hard drive. I believe the SSD part is used by Windows.
This is the first error I recieved when I tried to boot windows.
error: can't find command `drivemap'.
error: invalid EFI file path.
Press any key to continue...
Then I tried to follow this post
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150183 and made a new boot
entry "Windows 82". And I got a new error:
error: unspecified search type.
error: file '/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi' not found

EDIT:
I gave up trying to make grub work, so I uninstalled grub and deleted all the grub files I could find.
# pacrem grub-efi-x86_64
# rm -fr /boot/grub
That last one I came to regret later on. So I installed rEFInd using the archlinux beginners guide. When I then tried to boot into windows It told me that /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/normal.mod was not found. I then reinstalled grub-efi-x86_64 and copied /usr/lib/grub/x86_64 to /boot/grub. Now everything works fine.

The EFI stub loader is a Linux-only boot loader; however, it is possible to use the EFI stub loader in conjunction with a separate boot manager, such as rEFInd or gummiboot. In such a configuration, you'd use the boot manager to select the OS to boot (Windows or Linux, and possibly the specific Linux kernel), and the boot loader (the Windows loader or the EFI stub loader built into a specific kernel) will then take over booting the OS. In Arch, this is often easier to configure than is GRUB, since GRUB is very complex and its automated tools to help with setting things up often get it wrong.
This is the first error I recieved when I tried to boot windows.
error: can't find command `drivemap'.
error: invalid EFI file path.
Press any key to continue...
The "drivemap" command in GRUB is generally used when booting a BIOS-mode boot loader, and in fact your "Windows Recovery Environment (loader) (on /dev/sda2)" and "Windows 8 (loader) (on /dev/sda4)" GRUB entries are both built as for BIOS-mode Windows installations -- but the fact that your disks both use GPT means that Windows won't boot in BIOS mode on your computer. (This is one of the many things that the GRUB setup scripts can get wrong.)
Then I tried to follow this post
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150183 and made a new boot
entry "Windows 82". And I got a new error:
error: unspecified search type.
error: file '/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi' not found
Press any key to continue...
Both your "Windows 8" and "Windows 82" entries refer to an EFI boot loader file called EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi on your EFI System Partition (ESP). This should be correct, but your Boot Info Script output doesn't show any evidence of such a file. Sometimes Boot Info Script misses such things, so you may want to check it just to be sure. Your ESP is /dev/sda1, and it looks like it's being mounted at /boot/efi by default, so check for the /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft directory tree, and for /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi in particular. If that file isn't present, then something is wrong -- perhaps you mistakenly erased the ESP when you installed Linux, thus wiping out the Windows boot loader; or perhaps the file was accidentally deleted somewhere along the way. (Note that on FAT, which the ESP uses, case is irrelevant, and in fact case varies between the filenames reported by Boot Info Script and what's recorded in your configuration files.)
You do have another boot loader file that may be a duplicate of the Windows boot loader: EFI/BOOT/bkpbootx64.efi. This filename is generally created by Ubuntu's "Boot Repair" tool, which IMHO can do as much harm as good, especially on a system that's not booting Ubuntu. If you ran this tool, though, it's conceivable that bkpbootx64.efi is a copy of the Windows boot loader, so copying it to EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi might get things working. OTOH, the Windows boot loader relies on other files to do its job, so if they're not present, copying the Windows boot loader to its original location won't be sufficient.
If you can't get things working based on the preceding suggestions, I recommend you run a Windows repair tool. These are accessible from a Windows recovery disc. Such disc images are readily available on the Internet, but I don't happen to have any links handy. Try Microsoft's own site; images obtained from random third-party sites might contain malware. Once you've done this, chances are the computer will boot directly into Windows. You'll then need to either restore GRUB as the default boot loader or install another boot loader or boot manager. You can use the Windows "bcdedit" command to do the former, as in:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\arch-grub\grubx64.efi
You'll need to type this from an Administrator Command Prompt window.

ORA-31619: invalid dump file "D:\oracle-export\mitest-19-05-2009.dmp"

HI
I have took logical backup (export) on linux and import (windows 2003 server).
export command:
$expdp miqa/miqa schemas=miqa directory=backup_dir CONTENT=all dumpfile=miqa-`date +%d-%m-%Y`.dmp CONTENT=all logfile=miqa-`date +%d-%m-%Y`.log'
when i import on windows 2003 server i am getting the following error
grant create any directory to rnddb;
create or replace directory backup_dir as 'd:\export';
GRANT READ, WRITE ON DIRECTORY backup_dir TO rnddb;

ORA-31619:     invalid dump file "string"
Cause:      Either the file was not generated by Export or it was corrupted.
Action:      If the file was indeed generated by Export, report this as an Import bug and submit the export file to Oracle Customer Support.
How was the dump file transferred between Linux and Windows server?

Verify Disk: Invalid Volume File Count

So... I'm not really sure what to do or what exactly is wrong. I'm hoping not to reboot or reinstall all together, but if I have to... I suppose there's no choice.
I tried 'Verify Disk' from the utilities, but is fails and says
Invalid volume file count
(It should be 712836 instead of 712840)
Invalid volume directory count
(It should be 171417 instead of 171413)
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
I tried doing a 'Repair Disk' from the installation CD, but it says it fails because it could not unmount the HD.
what am I doing wrong and how can I fix it and is it really bad?
I've heard some suggest to go buy Disk Warrior. Will this fix it... or.. probably not?

*"Will this fix it... or.. probably not?"*
You won't know until you give it a try. You should own a copy of Disk Warrior anyway for at least some peace of mind in the future.
If it doesn't work, then you'll need to backup your files, erase the drive and start from scratch.
