Invalid non-atom keyword

Hello,
I am using TB 24.7.0.
Something weird is happening today with TB.
I have some filters setup to assign specific tags to incoming mails. Everything was fine until today.
What is more weird is that I didn't tamper with any of the filters, options, or anything today or recently.
I didn't figure yet what triggers it, but for sure when a new mail comes in, or when i just browse though the mails/folders, the tags suddenly are removed, and all the emails have 0 tags.
The same behavior is also in Safe mode.
I tried to compact the Inbox folder, and i received an error message like this:
The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account [email protected] responded: Invalid non-atom keyword 'blablabla' (this is one of the tags i use)
From this I understand is a problem with Gmail, but the tags are stored on Gmail? I though they where locally store.
If anybody has any idea why is this happening, or any fix, let me know.
Thank you,
Alex

Thank you Matt,
Seems that Gmail doesn't like my tag IDs. I had something like:
"[category]_tagname", and the chars "[" and "]" are invalid.
I've used them for 3 years like this, I don't understand why now are suddenly invalid.
Anyway, I've created them again with only alphanumeric chars (just renaming doesn't work), and modify my filtering with the new tags. Now is working correctly.
Of course all my old mails remained tagged with the old tags. Well, a minor inconvenience, I am just glad is working.
Good day to you all,
Alex

Security error: Cannot authorize operation for invalid non-ASCII URL

I have an error that popped up with Flash Player 10.1.85.3 or 10.1.82.76.
In our application, we load users' avatars with their original filename. Some filenames have non-ASCII characters (i.e. Hebrew, accents, or umlauts) and I can no longer load those files from a different subdomain.
For example, I'm trying to load this image (with the Loader class and a LoaderContext):
http://photos.myawesomedomain.com/images/awesöme.jpg (o with umlaut)
It comes to me encoded in UTF-8:
http://photos.myawesomedomain.com/images/awes%C3%B6me.jpg (umlaut converted to %C3%B6)
When I try to load the file from http://myawesomedomain.com/myawesome.swf, I get this error:
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
Connection to http://photos.myawesomedomain.com/images/awesÃ¶me.jpg halted - not permitted from http://myawesomedomain.com/myawesome.swf
Error: Cannot authorize operation for invalid non-ASCII URL http://photos.myawesomedomain.com/images/awesÃ¶me.jpg
If I try this with a player earlier than 10.1.82.76, it works. It also works if I move the file to the same domain as the SWF (http://myawesomedomain.com/images/awesöme.jpg) -- but that's not an option for me. Files without unusual characters work regardless of the player version.
The error occurs when I try to access the bitmap data of the loaded image. I've tried encoding the URL differently, but Flash always reports it as "http://photos.myawesomedomain.com/images/awesÃ¶me.jpg" - with the umlaut converted to strange characters. The cross domain file allow-access-from "*.myawesomedomain.com"
Has anyone run into this? Is there a way I can fix it without renaming the users' photos (we have tens of thousands of these)?
I feel like I must be missing something obvious; hardly anything comes up in Google for this, but I don't think it would be an uncommon problem. I believe https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-5580 is related.
Thanks!

The problem is based on the player version, not the browser.
The problem showed up in Chrome first because it auto-updates the player; when Firefox users installed the updated player, they started having the problem, too.

Problems with non-ascii keywords

I have some problems with non-ascii keywords that makes the whole keyword feature useless for me. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if there something I'm missing completely.
The problem is that when I enter something like "grön" iPhoto sometimes refuses me to type in "grön" on another photo and "eats" the "ö". And if I select the matching keyword from the popup list iPhoto has changed the originally "grön" to "gr¨ön" (if that comes out right on the web). Here are a few screenshots to show what happens
If someone knows what happens I would really appriciate some hints on how to avoid this.
Note that adding/editing keywords works just fine in Aperture.

There is a long standing issue with iPhoto and non-ascii characters. I know of no solution.
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback and report it as a bug.

Oracle reserved and non-reserved keywords

Hello,
I'm looking for a list of reserved and non-reserved keywords for all Oracle versions starting from 9.
I think Oracle starts at R1, right? So the versions needed would be:
9.1, 9.2
10.1, 10.2 and
11.1
I found lists of keywords querying Oracle view V$RESERVED_WORDS
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2048.htm#REFRN30204
here:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/ap_keywd.htm
However, this is only for version 10.2 and it contains only reserved keywords.
I need a list for every maintenance/minor version. This list must contain all keywords in Oracle PL/SQL, not just the reserved ones, but also those which shouldn't be used in certain contexts described by the V$RESERVED_WORDS view (former link) -> probably reserved = 'N'.
Since I don't own a copy of Oracle and definitely not of every minor version, does anyone know where to obtain such lists?
You might want to do me a favor and query that view for me... ;-) (you can send the output to "k w u t z k e AT w e b DOT d e" ... don't forget to mention the version)
From what the view tells me, the SQL statements to query are:
For reserved words:
select keyword from v$reserved_words where reserved='Y' order by keyword;
For all other non-reserved words:
select keyword from v$reserved_words where reserved='N' order by keyword;
Are there any keywords/entities that are neither reserved='Y' nor reserved='N'?
Can anyone help on this issue please?
TIA,
Karsten

Not sure about differences between specific versions but the easy way to get reserved words is in SQL*Plus...

An invalid public atom was found. *** is an invalid public atom?

While trying to export a movie, at the end of exporting, i get the message...an invalid public atom was found...
That kills the export job i just spent 2.5 hours waiting on (all HD video files, big export job)
Does anyone know what an invalid public atom is and how to deal with them, get rid of them, get around them...or otherwise stop them from killing my exports?

I'm having the same problem. It must because of a recent QuickTime update. I suspect the iTunes 10.5 update is the culprit. I shoot with a FireStore (FS-C) and have 5 Macs that can no longer read any of the .mov files. All the Macs (MacBook,Pro 8,3 / MacBookPro 8,2 / MacBookPro 5,2 / MacBookPro 2,2 / MacMini 4,1) are running 10.6.8 and all were capable of reading the FireStore files...until very recently. The last footage I edited was on October 9th. Somewhere between then and today (October 25th), an Apple update made the .mov files unopenable. When I try to play the files in Final Cut Pro (7.0.3), I get a "General Error" message.
I've installed VLC and the files will all play properly in the VLC player, so the files themselves are intact.
UPDATE: Yes, the problem stems from a recent QuickTime update. This has been confirmed in the following support notice from VITEC:
http://www.focusinfo.com/dynassets/documents/downloads/MACOSX_Supp_Anncmt_10.21. 11.pdf
I'm going to try downgrading my installed QuickTime and I'll post the results.

Writing Tags in iTunes Results in "Invalid Public Atom"

I've been using QT to export some TV shows to my iTunes library and in turn to my iPhone. I'm using the QT "export to iPhone" setting.
Anyway, they play fine after I add them to iTunes and also play fine on my iPhone. The problem starts when I try to change the info for the shows. Changing them from "Movie" to "TV show" and adding the Episode and Season. More and more lately that process has pretty much locked up while "writing new tags" and I've had to force quit iTunes. After that the movies will no longer open and get the "Invalid Public Atom" error.
Anyone have any ideas? It's weird as sometimes that "writing new tags" process is nearly instantaneous, but I know that if it's taking too long it will result in a newly corrupted movie.

I can confirm this. In experimenting with copying some of my video files into iTunes, 3 out of 6 files were corrupted. The first two I canceled after the "writing tags..." was taking over 5 minutes and resulted in the public atom being corrupted. The third finished after a couple minutes but resulted in a file that previously played fine in Quicktime now heavily corrupted in both iTunes and QT- pixization, frames being merged, long "green" patches as if iframes were randomly removed. I had imported the files into my library and was setting Genre tags when this occurred, both in the library itself and via the "get info" interface. I'm surprised to find that iTunes maintains file information actually in the file, which clearly runs the risk of corrupting the file each time metadata is changed and an aspect of the file, I assume the header, is rewritten. Lucky I believe in backups.
Some information about my configuration: Files are not copied locally but are on a nfs mount of a linux dataserver. All files are H.264 mpeg4 encodes and a mixture of Handbrake backups and encodes via Compressor. All the files are over 1G but under 3G. Based just on this data, there is not a pattern in the failures. iTunes 8.0.2(20), Leopard 10.5.6, Macbook Pro2,2

AppleWorks 6 won't launch -invalid/non existent path

Appleworks 6 was working fine until a few days ago, now it will not launch--just jumps once or twice, and then nothing. Console log says, "launch failed because the application path is invalid or non-existent" Now I can't open my work-related documents at all. Please help!

Hi, Barry,
Thank you for your reply--I tried your suggestions--and it did not work.
I can open saved documents in TextEdit, but not at all in AppleWorks6. Cannot access anything at all, including templates in AppleWorks6. I followed the threads and tried other suggestions, and Nothing!.
I can see AppleWorks in finder, with all necessary folders in a row (I didn't move any), but when I try to open AppleWorks, it's as if it didn't exist at all. Plus, lots of documents won't even open in Adobe reader, either--and I used to be able to, before.
I am so behind my work--do I have to dig out my typewriter?
I appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Another non-official fix for LR2's non-exporting keywords

Just as Zak Beck's fix, this is NOT an official fix! I'm sure Adobe's fix will be out soon, but for those who don't want to wait and are a bit adventurous, here's my fix :) You will need a copy of your old LR1 catalog and your new LR2 catalog. This utility will read each keyword from the old catalog and apply the same setting to Include On Export, Include Parents and Include Synonyms in the new catalog. FAIR WARNING!!! This is not tested rigorously!!! I did this for my own catalogs, and it works on them. It passes LR's integrity check, opens fine in LR2 and I have checked around 30 (of 9000) keywords and they all seem to be correct now. However, PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP of your LR2 catalog prior to running this. You never know... Needless to say, this comes with no warranty whatsoever, use at your own risk! For the diligent, the source code is included, so feel free to make sure it does what I say it does :) If your still interested, here's what you need to do: 1) If not already installed, install Java 1.6 or later. 2) Download LRKeywordFix.zip from here: http://www.box.net/shared/tyylegbccg 3) Unzip LRKeywordFix.zip 4a) If you are on a Mac, move the file macosx/libsqlitejdbc.jnilib one directory up 4b) If you are on Windows, move the file win\sqlitejdbc.dll one directory up 5) run the command "java -jar LRKeywordFix.jar <path to LR1 catalog> <path to LR2 catalog>" For example: "java -jar LRKeywordFix.jar c:\backups\LR1Cats\mylr1cat.lrcat c:\LR2Cats\mylr2cat.lrcat" Let me know how it goes! Regards, Kris

OK, so I've updated the tool now. This is what's different:
-Separate packages for Win32 and OSX
-Output is more informative now. Note the levels: INFO, WARNING and ERROR. INFO is just FYI, nothing went wrong. WARNING means something non-critical happened and the tool should continue to process. ERROR usually means a critical error happened and the tool will quit. Also, if a keyword from LR1 was not found in LR2, it will tell you so.
-I actually check that the LR2 keyword is the same by complete name, case sensitive. So, e.g., if LR1 keyword was 'Los Angeles^California^USA', the LR2 keyword must be exactly the same, not e.g. 'los angeles^california^usa' or 'Los Angeles^USA', etc. This may be a nuisance for some but I felt it was better to be strict here. If really needed, I can add an option to let the user choose how strict the tool will be.

Accent insensitive + Search for 2 non consecutive keywords

Hi,
In APEX, I have a query the search into a list of TITLE (TIT), with or without accents. I cannot search for 2 non-consecutive word in my title and have the result.
Here an example:
SELECT
"ID","TIT"
from   "REGDOSSIERS" "RDO"
where
instr(TRANSLATE(UPPER("TIT"),'ÁÂÈÉÊÍÓÚÜ','AAEEEIOUU'),upper(nvl(:P1_REPORT_SEARCH,"TIT")) ) > 0
TIT
Last name of the resolution
King Henry the Sixth
The Gazette
The Comedy of Errors
La vie enchanté
Le bêtes et les oiseaux1- If I look for: Last Name_, I have this result:
TIT
Last name of the resolution2- If I look for: Last resolution*,
I have NO RESULTS
My Question: How to I rewrite my query to have be able to look for 2 keywords non consecutive in the field,
thanks

Hi,
If you know the order of the keywords (that is, if 'LAST' must come before 'RESOLUTION'):
WHERE str LIKE '%LAST%RESOLUTION%'where str is the string with accents standardized.
Now, since you're starting with a variable like 'LAST RESOLUTION', you need to convert it to '%LAST%RESOLUTION%', so say
WHERE str LIKE '%' || REPLACE ( :p1_report_search     -- TRANSLATE would work, too
               || '%'Watch out for the "mother is in chemotherapy" problem.
That is, if str = 'AMY''S ORDEAL WITH CHEMOTHERAPY", and :p1_report_search = 'MY MOTHER', you'll get a match, because str contains the 2-character sibstring 'MY' and the 6-character substring 'MOTHER' in that order.
If that's not what you want, then you can search on whiole words only, like this:
{code}
WHERE ' ' || REPLACE ( str
          , ' '     -- 1 space ...
          , ' '     -- ... becomes 2 spaces
     || ' ' LIKE '% ' || REPLACE ( :p1_report_search     -- TRANSLATE won't work, now
                    , ' % '     -- spaces before and after wild-card
               || ' %'
{code}
This assumes that all words are delimited by spaces.
If you want punctuation or other whtiespace (like tabs) to delimit words, that can be done, too.

LR2: non-official SQLite fix for non-exporting keywords

Hello
This is not the official Adobe fix.
I've been looking into this and it's relatively trivial to update the catalog using SQLite tools to update a catalog so that keywords are exported again.
Please note that you do this at your own risk.
-- Start --
1. Obtain an SQLite tool - I use SQLiteSpy, there are others for both Windows and Mac - search this forum for examples.
2. Close Lightroom if it is running.
3. Backup your .lrcat file
4. Start your SQLite tool, and open your .lrcat file.
5. Execute this query:
update aglibrarykeyword
set includeOnExport = 1, includeParents = 1, includeSynonyms = 1
where parent is not null
6. Close your SQLite tool
-- End --
This will set all three options on your keywords, and should make any keyworded image export with the keywords. However, this fix sets all three options on all your keywords, it doesn't match the options you had in LR 1.4.1. If you're not confident with running these steps, I suggest you wait for an official fix.
Zak

I've been experimenting with this, taking advantage of what Zak already described.
But Im finding that some of the keywords *are* written out. And by using SQLiteSpy to looking into my 1.X and 2.0 catalogs its pretty easy to see where they botched up the conversion.
I think the problem is something like this...
For each keyword, if you have never fiddled with the Keyword Tag Options for a keyword then the 1.X catalog has the corresponding values in the set to NULL (the three properties are actually stored as a string containing Lua code to create a table with these three values). If you fiddle with any of them then they get set (all of them). The 2.0 conversion process seems to do the right thing when converting non-NULL values. Its when the 1X database has a NULL that they screw up, putting a false in the 2X database, when they probably should have inserted true instead.
Ive now got a swag at fixing this, but I cheated. I run an UPDATE statement on the 1.X catalogit will supply true values for all three settings on keywords that currently have no value. You then need to run LR 2 to convert the catalog to the new format, and things seem to work ok.
Heres the query. Remember this is to be run on the 1.X catalog. Specifically, I was using Lr 1.4.1, and havent tried with earlier versions. And all normal warnings about making backups, not trusting code you find on forums, etc, apply.
update AgLibraryTag set flattenedParams = "params = { includeOnExport = true, includeParents = true, includeSynonyms = true, }" where flattenedParams is NULL;

If you subordinate a keyword by accident, how do you return it to being a non subordinate keyword?

From time to time I have accidently subordinated a keywork by what appears to a be a slip of the finger. After the key word has been subornated under another keyword I have found it impossible to unsubordinate it.

You can always go to the keywords HUD and rearrange keywords.
Exactly, as William Lloyd said.
Just a hint - it can be tricky to move a keyword to a higher level in the hierarchie, if your list of keywords is long.
I found, that it helps to shorten the list by typing the keyword that you want to move, into the searchfield of the HUD. Then only this keyword and its higher categories will show. Then you can easily drag the keyword down to the empty space on the HUD and out of the group.

Invalid movie atom!!!

Have been reading the posts on this subject but there doesn't seem to be any solution. Can't play certain QT files since I upgraded to quicktime 7.3.

This happened to me too. I added some Ren-Stimpy vids, which I ripped, to iTunes. I then typed in some info about season etc.. iTunes was then doing some sort of indexing of the movie files after I added the info to the files. This process was making my HD work quite hard (it was actually changing something with the entire movie file) and it seemed to take a very long time and I cancelled it. Now the movie files are unusable by anything, including VLC and MPEGStreamclip.
When I added the movie files to iTunes it did not copy them to the iTunes directory.
How can iTunes just destroy movie files??? After I made the info changes to the files the indexing began without asking me. So, iTunes will just willy-nilly change the original files (if they aren't copied to the iTunes library) and potentially destroy them. Thanks, Apple. That's some great software.
Does anyone know of a way to recover from the atom error?

Non-atomic long and double assignment

Is it true that the assignment of all primitive types with the exception of long and double is treated as atomic operations?

These are the only operations that can be seen by other threads that are guaranteed to be atomic:
A read or write of a field that is not a long or a double.
A read or write of a volatile field.

HQ pro-res file will not open - invalid Atom

Hi Everybody,
Suddenly, my macbook pro will not open Apple pro-res 4:2:2HQ files that were originally acquired using the alexa. When I open the files,I get this message:
“An invalid public movie atom was found in the movie.”
Here’s my system: 2.53 GHz Macbook Pro Core i5, 4GB Ram. Ihave a mere 12gigs of space left on the internal HD.
Here are a few facts:
I just upgraded to LION. I don’t think issue washappening before I upgraded to LION. The files have been fine through many editsessions so they came off the Alexa in good condition.
I was able to open the files just fine onanother machine that was running Snow Leopard. This indicates to me the filesare not corrupted and the drive the file lives on is not damaged.
If the video file is less that 1Gig, it opensfine on my machine. If it’s greater than 1Gig, it gives me the “invalid publicmovie atom” message.
Oddly, the only file I can open the file in isquicktime 10. I can open the file and play it. I cannot open the file in anyother software including FCP 7, mpeg stream clip, compressor, quicktime pro 7.
When I open the file in FCP 7, I just see white.
Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this issue? Ifit’s the LION upgrade, I hope I don’t have to go back to snow leopard to remedythis issue.
I appreciate any advice you can offer.
Thanks!
Stokes

Hey Ben,
Really, you think so? I am looking for helpful answers that help me solve the problem not a some ***** with an attitude to give me a lecture and state the obvious. And I am not in the middle of a project. This is an old project we are opening up to do some additional color on.
Cheers
