Invisible engineer fixing a none-existant service

So BT booked an engineer visit for today between 1 and 6 to fix my none-existent service as I've now had 3 weeks of unusable none-existent service. Waited in all day, 3:45pm I called BT to double check that he is actually going to show up, and was told repeatedly that he'll definately show... 6pm has gone and past and no one showed up so that was an outright fabrication. Service is not fixed, my ticket got marked as resolved and the service is still unusable. NOTHING what so ever has changed and I'm really really **bleep** off as I told work I'd be able to get something done over the weekend. Again I'm being lied to. I'm not paying BT another cent until this is fixed, they can demand money, pass me onto credit agencies or take me to court... they are not getting a single cent out of me until this problem is fixed and the internet is working I'm tired of getting screwed around

If you would like to contact one of the UK based BT Care Team who moderate this forum, they should be able to help you.
They can be contacted using this link BT Care Team
They normally respond by phone or e-mail, within three working days, however you should get an immediate confirmation, with a tracking number.

Schema Node referencing a non-existent Service Field.... in MDM 2.0.1

Hi,
In MDM 2.0.1, I created the following(in order) :
1.UOM
2.Measuring Component Type
3.Device Configuration Type
4.Service Provider
5.Device Type
6.Device
But when trying to Configure the created Device, its showing some error as...
*Schema node isNewCase (/schema/[includeDA F1-CommonToDoEntryData]/isNewCase) references non-existent service field NEW_CASE_SW.*+
After this has happened, i couldn't even add another configuration to some of my Existing Devices..
(But for Some existing devices, adding a new configuration doesn't throwing errors..)
Please help regarding this...

Hello again,
we found out that there must be at least an element configured on the Seeder Sync Request Master Configuration business object. We are now moving forward to make the service work.
Any working example will be appreciated.

IPhone 5, updated to IOS 7.x spotty/non existent service

Have had phone without issue for the first year, a few months ago, i updated the IOS software, and emails would come through several hours late. Soon enough, i would get text messages 3 hours or more after they were sent. When i send a text message, it says sending across the top for a minute, and typically says "Failed to send" (even when sent as sms)
When 7.1 was available, i thought, "Whew, they musta found the glitch, this will fix it), so i updated.
Far worse now, My wife and i have exactly the same phone, on the same Verizon contract. We can be right next to each other, she is buzzing along the internet, sending texts, receiving texts, and mine just sits and says "No connection".
I moved away from the cheaper providers because i wanted great coverage/service. My old Virgin mobile $30 plan was FAR better.
I have reset network/phone settings, and am about to do a full reset and trash all my data (Thanks Verizon). I will report back to this forum and advise if this works.
Why are we paying over $150 for two phones, with this level of service. It's time to walk.

Sorry to hear that your phone has been experiencing issues with regards to functionality, craigfe. You definitely should not be experiencing those issues. Please let us know if performing the master reset, after backing up your data, gets your phone working normally once again. Thank you, craigfe.

Please fix the non-existent Sign Out

Is there going to be any update so that you can sign out of Skype on Xbox One? Its pretty ridiculous that you can't, I've had to go into my privacy settings and make it so no one can message me just so that Skype is disabled. I would love to use it on Xbox One cause its a great feature, but lot's of people use my TV, family, friends, etc. and there is no way I'm leaving it turned on all the time. I think this has got to be one of the most annoying design decisions I've ever seen for a communication app.

Thanks (and kudos) for you detailed feedback, @JLLP . Your detailed use cas description is helpful to scope the features to potentially better support it in the future.
For the time being you might want to look at these Xbox One features:
Settings - "Sign in, security & passkey": Set up a passkye here as requirement to sign in. You can conveniently enter that using your controller even while others are watching the Xbox dashboard screen
Settings - Preferences: You can uncheck "Show Skype notifications" there each time you move away from your Xbox. Not really convenient long term as you need to remember to re-enable the feature each time you return to your box. See next bullet point
With the Skype app open press the menu button on your XB1 controller and select "Settings". Open "Notifications" to configure your Skype notifications to only show for incoming calls. This might help you address the content privacy question.

InDesign CS6: preflight & non-existent overset text in my document.

Hi,
I’m using InDesign CS6. The preflight lists overset errors. When I click on the page icon and go to where the overset txt is supposed to be…there is none.
I deleted EVERYTHING in the entire document, then did a SAVE-AS a new name; restarted InDesign; opened the empty document...and it still says I have overset text. I’ve had this issue before with other documents and just ignored the errors after hours of trying to fix the non-existent overset text - but other people have to use my documents. Having errors is an issue with shared documents. I started a chat with an adobe tech support person, but they had no idea what the problem is. Is this a bug? More importantly, is there a fix?
any help much appreciated.
regards,
m

I have a document with a similar issue. I just opened it just to check. When I click on the overset and click somewhere else, I get an empty text frame. I guess that's what happens to you as well. I turned on Show Hidden Characters and noticed that somehow I had at the bottom of the page a paragraph sign (probably I hit enter at the end without noticing it). I just deleted it and now is fine. Turn on the Show Hidden Characters and see if something shows up at the end of your document.

Slow/Non-existent LTE Service in Soho/NYC

I have an iPhone5 and work at Broome and Sixth Avenue in Soho NYC. When I initially switched from AT&T to Verizon last year I was getting slow but decent 4G/LTE speeds at work. but for the past 3 months service has been non-existent all day indoors. When I turn off LTE service on my phone and go to 4G it is about 10 times faster.
My questions are:
Why doesn't the phone automatically switch over to 3G when there is no LTE service?
And why do I get for bars and the LTE indicator when the service is so slow I cannot even run a speedtest or connect to any apps' servers?
thanks!

The second question - you have "service" as in you are connected, but Verizon has had capacity issues with LTE in NYC for quite some time now (and have not made any noticable improvements in at least the past year apparently), so you will constantly see disconnects or slow speeds....
Some related open threads for midtown, but apparently downtown and soho are suffering now as well (look at the "support" discussed in these threads as well...sadly, nothing to brag about to your friends on other carriers in NYC)
https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/798232
https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/783107
https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/787806
Just a hunch - if a VZ rep responds to your post, you will get a response similar to the following:
"What's your zip code? Let me investigate the issue. We want you to have great LTE speeds. Have you ever had a trouble ticket open?" Then once you supply the information, it will go unanswered or you will be told that they either a) see no issues with the area, or b) acknowledge capacity issues, but can't tell you of any upcoming improvements.
Sorry, probably not the response you were looking for...but it's the unfortunately sad state of VZW in NYC these days.

Very slow or non-existent broadband in the evening...

Why is it that when you contact BT about a slow or non-existent BT broadband every evening, they doggedly maintain that testing the line and waiting seven days will solve the problem? My BT broadband works wonderfully well during the daytime but slows to a standstill in the evening, not really a line problem, rather a bit of exchange congestion I think, unless of course you believe in conspiracies.
What if BT are actually setting the lines that have the old white HomeHub and Internet phone to a lower priority than the Infinity lines, to boost the performance of the new connections and encourage, (force), the current HomeHub users to upgrade? I rather like having two telephone lines, and would rather not upgrade and lose the second line, but I feel that this is not what BT want.
So if I'm forced to upgrade and lose the Internet phone it's off to Sky, those Murdochs need all the help they can get.
Solved!

I keep getting calls from non existing area codes and phone numbers. They are never the same number twice. How do I stop this?

About a week ago I started getting phone calls on my cell phone from numbers that do not exist, including the area codes. I can not report these to the Do Not Call list because the area code is non existent. I'm getting these calls all the time now and never from the same number twice so there's no point in blocking them. If I answer I may or may not get a person who has an accent from India so heavy that I can't understand what they are saying. This is getting to the point where I just want to cry I'm so frustrated. Anyone else having this issue or does anyone know how to stop it?
Thank you

I'm sorry that you are having all these troubles. I have sent you a private message.

Why does it say:

Thanks,

Add "Targets" attribute to the connection pool. You may
get an idea how it looks like by searching config.xml
for "targets". If target servers are not set, the pool won't be
deployed and can not be used to a create datasource.

Creating a Socket to non-existent host very slow

Why does it take a long time to try to create a Socket to a non-existent host on a Linux machine? On a Windows machine it takes approx. 20 sec., but when I try it on a Linux machine it takes approx. 180 sec.!
Here's the code I'm using (very simple):
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;
public class SocketCreator {
public static void
main(String[] args) {
long _begin = System.currentTimeMillis();
try {
new Socket("10.10.10.10", 2000);
} catch (UnknownHostException exception) {
exception.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException exception) {
exception.printStackTrace();
long _end = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("It took: " + (_end - _begin) + " ms.");
Some additional info:
- Java2 SDK 1.1.x, 1.3.x and 1.4.x
- Windows XP
- Red Hat 7.2, 9

This is really a Linux system-wide problem. If you wanted to fix this in Java, you might even have to resort to JNI to sent yourself a signal and interrupt your system call (the system call is connect()).
Unfortunately, the page give by "man tcp" on Linux is often not kept up-to-date with the many options available in /proc/sys/net/ipv4 .
Also, access to the local LAN will often give a quick "No route to host" message.
To test the long-timeout, you have to access a remote IP that does not exist. For instance, on Linux, if you start two xterms, and on the firxt you enter:
telnet 66.120.89.14
and on that second your enter
netstat -an
You will see something like this line:
tcp 0 1 192.168.5.18:32836 66.120.89.14:23 SYN_SENT
So now you know that the socket is sitting in SYN_SENT.
Now, if you look on a nice, full man page of tcp, like
http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man7/tcp.7.html
You will see
tcp_syn_retries
The maximum number of times initial SYNs for an active TCP connection attempt will be retransmitted. This value should not be higher than 255. The default value is 5, which corresponds to approximately 180 seconds.
Back on the second xterm, try:
% cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syn_retries
5
I bet you got five also. You could turn it down to two (decreases time to around 20 seconds).
You could try this as root:
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_syn_retries=2
or even add this command to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file

Exchange Server 2013 SP1 - Readiness Check Failing - Detected Non-existent Exchange 2007 Servers

For development purposes, I needed to install Exchange Server 2013 in our environment. Our current environment includes a couple Domain Controllers, a Sharepoint Server, and a SQL Server. So, it's got a very simple topology. The one thing
our environment does NOT have are current Exchange servers.
During the "Prerequisite Analysis" phase of the install it complained that two servers, that I can find nowhere in our active directory domain, are running Exchange 2007. Obviously, this presents some unique problems. Perhaps as a test
many years ago, someone installed Exchange 2007 to "play" with, but we've never run Exchange for any length of time.
So, this is quite the conundrum, given the above does anyone have any suggestions as to a potential solution? Ideally, I'd like to be able to "lift the covers" and cleanup the references to the non-existent servers somehow, but ANY suggestions
for fixes are MUCH appreciated.
Cheers,
Nate

Here is the thing I would do (Only if I am not going to have any exchange 2007 ever in the environment).
On any of windows server 2008 download
Exchange 2010 SP3
Extract the file and run the below command:
Setup.com /ps
This will make Exchange 2013 install. Also Deleting Exchange Administrator Group wouldn't help as Setup will look for the information about schema into AD.

WLST crashed on getting non-existing attribute in runtime()

After downloading the latest WLST package (April 14th, 2005) from the dev2dev site, I'm experiencing WLST crashs after attempting to get an attribute on a non-existing object instead of seeing a normal syntax error message.
Before updating my jython.jar and wlst.jar for dev2dev:
wls:/dizzyworld/runtime/ServerRuntime/dizzy1/ApplicationRuntimes/dizzy1_mbeanlis
ter/ComponentRuntimes/dizzy1_dizzy1_mbeanlister_mbeanlister> get('SessionsOpenTo
talCount')
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<input>", line 1, in ?
File "<iostream>", line 191, in get
WLSTException: 'Error occured while performing get : AttributeNotFound Exception
while doing a getAttribute for attribute SessionsOpenTotalCount. Use dumpStack(

After:

Non existing local user managed to RDP to windows 2012 target machine

Hi,
It seems the exact same issue as I see it here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/91f09a4b-350f-47f8-814b-53b29d1a6306/windows-2012-rdp-login-credentials-are-not-used-on-remoteapp-connect-dialog-box?forum=winserverTS
But I couldn't see any real/final answer.
Can I get official response from MS about this issue?
When we use the RDWeb, we use a non existing user to connect to some target 2012 machine and it actually works... it connects me to the target.
How cab I eliminate it?
Tx,
shlom

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
For the user which you don’t want to provide the access of Remote Desktop to target machine, you can apply GPO setting for that user. Need to apply “Deny logon through Remote Desktop Service” GPO policy and add that user under that policy. You can
find the policy under below mention path.
Windows Settings/Security Settings/Local Policies/User Rights Assignments
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Inbox downloading non-existent emails endlessly

A few days ago the red "unread mail" counter began rising and rising without downloading any messages. The loading spiral next to the "Inbox" indicates that it thinks it's downloading, and it does not stop. The number began at 300 (I keep a lot of unread mail in my inbox), but is now at approximately 800 and only stops when I close the program. This mail is not showing up in my inbox, and I am not a popular enough person to make so many messages an actual possibility.
Along with the endless non-existent emails, the actual email that I should be getting is not showing up.
I have tried Rebuilding my mailbox a couple of times and have deleted the "MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2," but these have not worked.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi Cathy, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
