Is the \OTN Directory corrupted???

I was attempting to download JDeveloper 10G and received a zero size reply error. URL: http://download-east.oracle.com/otn/java/jdeveloper/905/jdev9052.zip.
I have no problem going to download-east.oracle.com or download-west.oracle.com. However, when I click on the otn/ directory, I get www.oracle.com/errors/404.html. The page displays a bunch of garbage.
I am able to browse other directories like oracleworld/ and otndocs/ without problem.

Brand new MBP and the user directory is corrupt?

hi, i just installd my new MBP and did a sync of my G5 settings (all except bookmarks) added a few things to my desktop and when i rebooted the desktop was cleared and the home directory was missing "Movies" "Music" "Pictures" in the left most column. all that is left is "Applications" and my user home symbol.
i tried to create a new user and when i did so was given a message that the "home" folder could not be located. weird.
anyway. i also installed a canon IP4300 driver. can anyone tell me what may be going on? do i need to erase the drive and do a fresh install?
UPDATE: i see what happened! the User directory somehow got into the Applications folder! no idea how. but i can't seem to get it out. can anyone help me out?
thx
Message was edited by: Frank Jacob

Open the Applications folder and drag the Users folder inside to the top level of the hard disk; you may need to press the Command key when dragging the item and/or provide an administrator username and password. When done, log out and back in. If only the home folder is present in the Applications folder, move it to the Users folder. Rename existing items as needed.

I have an iMac mid 2010. After Disk utilities said the drive was corrupt, I ran the hardware test (extended) 3 times. No problems. I than ran Disk utility again and got 2 messages in red…keys out of order, and ……Volume corrupt, can't be repaired.
I tried to do a system install, but message said…disk can't be changed. Will a complete erase and install fix this ?
Everything is backed-up.

There's hardware and software.
Your drive could physically be in good condition but something has caused the file structure to be messed up (it just happens sometimes). The directory that keep track of files is corrupt. Disk Utility can help determine if that is the issue. In some cases it can repair the problem but it cannot do it to a drive that is being used to boot the system while you are doing that. You have to boot from another drive. Some things DU cannot repair and you need to try a stronger utility such as Diskwarrior.
A failing hard drive (one with mechanical issues) can be a cause of file structure issues but this is by no means always the case. Apart from looking at the SMART diagnosis feature of Disk Utility (and smart isn't totally reliable) there often isn't a way to tell if a drive is failing until it suddenly happens, which is why you need to maintain backups.
In your situation it does sound serious and not just minor directory corruption. You can try erasing (formatting) the drive, You may need to do this if it is really corrupt, in which case there could be underlying physical issues. I use old technology but if you have the patience you can try erasing the drive with the security option of writing zeros once (don't do more unless you are going on a 3 week vacation). This makes the drive not simply assume everything is okay by forcing it try every part of the drive by writing data. If something is gong wrong you may find it marks a lot of bad sectors, or flat out refuses to format. Then you know you need a new drive.

Hi,
There seems to be couple of reasons for this:
-This problem indicates that the patch is not extracted properly.
The patch was unzipped on a pc and transferred over to the server box.
The problem can also occur if the downloaded patch is corrupted .
-Opatch was not run from the correct patch directory. Once the patch is unzipped, the patch is then stored in the following example location:
\patches\p123456_9042_WINNT\123456\123456
Make sure that the patch location has write permissions to the user that is performing the patching.
Thanks,
Sharmela

Question on Directory corruption

Hello,
I posted last week about my system wide crash on my PM G5. I took it to the Apple store and they diagnosed it as a fried processor. The liquid cooling had also ruptured leaking into the unit. They replaced the processor and I picked up the computer last night. I booted out of my external drive and repaired permissions on my Macintosh HD. I also verified the disk and there were no errors detected. The problem I am having is my spotlight does not seek out the files when rendering the search. For example, I searched for "system profiler" and spotlight did not show the application in its result. When I manualy opened system profiler, then spotlight was able to find it on a subsequent search. This seems to be a consistent thing with alot of program files (it won't find them until I open the file ahead of time). Otherwise, the computer is behaving ok. Does this seem to be a directory corruption of some kind??
What is the BEST way to deal with this?
Should I purchase Disk Warrior and use it. Is that just a quick fix or a permanent one?
Should I back up my data and wipe my hard drive and re-install? I don't want to have to manually reinstall my third party applications one by one. Is there an efficient way around this??
thanks for all your advice and I PROMISE I will (as I do always) grant points for helpful and solved questions

Delete the Spotlight Index files and rebuild.
I use Tiger Cache Cleaner. But a search will offer more utilities.
http://www.macupdate.com
You don't have Disk Warrior?? shame
That and two backups (backups first, DW4 next).
Disk Utility does not find every and all errors or problems.
Add Applejack to your list of tools, too. Deleting the cache files with it improves performance and eliminates some headaches.
I probably would have erased my hard drive and done a restore from cloned backups. I repair a disk first, never bother to verify, and then run "repair" permissions.
The Mac's Finder has a real case of amnesia and deferred updating. Something that TCC can help cure by forcing the Finder to be more pro-active. Faster disk drives, more memory for caching, keeping your drives in good health.

Why is the iphoto directory no longer a directory?

I wanted to go digging through the iphoto directory, but now it is one LARGE 17 GB file that I cannot dig into...
I wanted to go into the directory to find the video files I am having trouble with (I can't export them from iphoto), but it is no longer a directory, so I can't do this...What's up with that??! Help!
Does this mean I can't downgrade back to iphoto 6 - because it is no longer a directory?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. To add to Terence's post:
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Now, when you export a file to the desktop iPhoto will write the following metadata to the file for use by other applications: title, keyword and comments. So it benefits you to access the photos as iPhoto designed.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Drobo failure & Directory corruption

Reporting my experience with a Drobo failure and great support from Alsoft DiskWarrior :
My Drobo failed. Not a hardware failure, but a corruption in the directory that prevented my disk to mount...
According to Drobo support, everything was "ok" on their side.
According to me, I had lost access to almost 3TB of data !
This was the second time a directory corruption happened to me on one of my Drobo (I've never experienced this on any other type of drive in 15 years... but according to Drobo support, it could happen to anyone...) . Therefore I was already equipped with the excellent "DiskWarrior" from Alsoft, which had already saved me once.
I was not so lucky this time : an error in Alsoft prevented the Directory to be rebuilt.
I contacted Alsoft support and I was really impressed by the service ! Marc from Alsoft took the time to remotely connect to my machine and do his magic, manually retrieving, fixing and mounting the corrupted directory. Helping me retrieve almost 2TB of data.
A couple of lessons :
- be paranoid with backups : this Drobo was storing archives of backups... I was anxious to retrieve the data, but nothing bad happened because of this failure.
- don't trust advertising : Drobo would claim that you cannot loose data. I did...
- don't name your files with generic names : when the directory structure is corrupted, and you have to manually retrieve files, you're much better off with "backup_project_20110823.gzip", than with hundreds of "backup.gzip" files and no folder to know what they are !
- when things go bad use DiskWarrior ! The software is great and the service is incredible !
A couple of questions :
- are serious directory corruptions common on non-drobo hard drives ?
- what's the best method to prevent them (hard unplug/power failures being the cause I know about). I am considering re-activating Tech Tool protection - but it's soooo slow.
- what alternatives to drobo would you recommend for archiving data ?

I started lots of corruption issues with my Drobo the same day I upgraded to OS X 10.8. See my discussion thread below.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20518529#20518529
I logged a case with Drobo Support and they told me I was the only one having such issues.

Directory corrupted again & again

I'm having a recurring problem with directories becoming fragmented/corrupted on my old computer.
B&W G3, OS9.2.1, 896ram, 2 HD: 80G & 60G. Processor upgraded to 1GHz (PowerLogix hardware).
Original factory HD has been replaced a few months ago. Slave drive is less than 2 yrs old.
I have been using Disk Warrior to repair directories as they occasionally become fragmented. The alerts from DW, or alerts from the finder are becoming more frequent. Sometimes an app will crash/quit and I'll receive alerts re directory corrupted, or various references to file structures, trees, etc. are damaged. Restart from other volume (partition) or DW cd, run DW & aok.
But why is this occurring so frequently?
Controller card on disk going bad? Not likely, my guess, because another volume on slave drive is sometimes corrupted.
Faster processor causing problem? I was running a 900MHz proc, and had no problems. New processor going bad (early failure)?
My suspicions are system-related files, but which ones?
This is getting out of hand, I'm spending too much valuable time rebuilding directories.
Please help, this has got to stop.

While not claiming to have the definitive answer to your query, there are some observations that I can make.
Your configuration seems to be one that you have chosen for audio or video recording/editing. I sympathize with your desire for a responsive setup for that purpose, but I wonder whether you have pushed the whole just that iota beyond its intrinsic capabilities. My Beige G3 has a 400MHz processor, giving a 12x multiplier of the system bus. It has max. RAM (768MB) and two drives of 6GB and 40GB. It is supported by OS 9.2.2. With Spark 2.6 (wave editor) it is quite comfortable. Because there is another Mac with OS 10.2.8 and Spark 2.82, I push the Beige no further for the moment.
I suggest that you update to OS 9.2.2 to begin with, and go over the specification, quality and match of your RAM. I should also remove it, clean the contacts (along, not across) with a soft pencil eraser, and then blow off the detritus and clean the slots with canned air. You are operating your RAM under pressure (metaphorically speaking), and need to be assured that it can withstand the assault.
Even though the chief virtue of 9.2.x is to work with OS X in Classic Mode, there is also better stability as a standalone from 9.2.2 than from 9.2.1. If the foregoing does not improve matters, then, to the extent possible, revert to the prior state of each recent upgrade, one at a time and in the order most recent to least recent. As a reversion appears to reestablish the stability that you had or wish for, you can consider the upgrade as a potential cause of the present difficulty.
In the interests of a leaner and tighter System, there may also be some virtue in having an alternative configuration in Extensions Manager with the superfluous components disabled during your specialized work. Editing, burning to optical disk and so on are patently of continuing interest, but silly voice management may not be integral to your work, and there are many more potential candidates.

On starting up my new iPhone 4s, it freezes on the apple logo. I have tried the reset buttons trick and have tried restoring again too but nothing works. Any other ideas? Or is the phone simply corrupt in some way?

On starting up my new iPhone 4s, it freezes on the apple logo. I have tried the reset buttons trick and have tried restoring again too but neither works. Any other ideas? Or is the phone simply corrupt in some way?

Did you try to connect in recovery mode and restore without using the latest backup?
Recovery mode and How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If setting up as new device does not work, you'll have to get it serviced or looked at by visiting an Apple Store.
Did you try to remove the ipsw firmware file and restore, to make iTunes download a new copy from Apple?
Those files are located here:
Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your iPod or iPhone. If those files are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file to a different directory. This will cause iTunes to download a new copy of the IPSW. When a restore issue is specific to a user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:

Fix: Active directory corrupted (NTDS ISAM Database Corruption errors in eventlog)

It worked for me!
Frank Keunen
IT-Pro Evangelist :: Microsoft IT Infrastructure Engineer
Follow the procedure below to fix Microsoft Active Directory database problems (corrupted Active Directory due to e.g memory issues/disk problems):
1. Reboot the server and press F8. Choose Directory Services Restore Mode from the Menu.
2. Check the physical location of the Winnt\NTDS\ folder.
3. Check the permissions on the \Winnt\NTDS folder. The default permissions are: Administrators – Full Control System – Full Control
4. Check the Winnt\Sysvol\Sysvol folder to make sure it is shared.
5. Check the permissions on the Winnt\Sysvol\Sysvol share. The default permissions are: Share Permissions: —————— Administrators – Full Control Authenticated Users – Full Control Everyone – Read NTFS Permissions: —————– Administrators – Full Control Authenticated
Users – Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read Creator Owner – none Server Operators – Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read System – Full Control Note: You may not be able to change the permissions on these folders if the Active Directory
database is unavailable because it is damaged, however it is best to know if the permissions are set correctly before you start the recovery process, as it may not be the database that is the problem.
6. Make sure there is a folder in the Sysvol share labeled with the correct name for their domain.
7. Open a command prompt and run NTDSUTIL to verify the paths for the NTDS.dit file. These should match the physical structure from Step 2. To check the file paths type the following commands: Start a command prompt NTDSUTIL Files Info The output should
look similar to: Drive Information: C:\ NTFS (Fixed Drive) free (2.9 Gb) total (3.9 Gb) D:\ NTFS (Fixed Drive) free (3.6 Gb) total (3.9 Gb) DS Path Information: Database : C:\WINNT\NTDS\ntds.dit – 10.1 Mb Backup dir: C:\WINNT\NTDS\dsadata.bak Working dir:
C:\WINNT\NTDS Log dir : C:\WINNT\NTDS – 30.0 Mb total res2.log – 10.0 Mb res1.log – 10.0 Mb edb.log – 10.0 Mb This information is pulled directly from the registry and mismatched paths will cause Active Directory not to start. Type Quit to end the NTDSUTIL
session.
8. Rename the edb.chk file and try to boot to Normal mode. If that fails, proceed with the next steps.
9. Reboot into Directory Services Restore mode again. At the command prompt, use the ESENTUTL to check the integrity of the database. NOTE: You can use NTDSUTIL to check the Integrity, however esentutl is usually more reliable. Type the following command:
ESENTUTL /g “\NTDS.dit” /!10240 /8 /v /x /o (Note: Type the path without the quotes). Note: The default path would be C:\Winnt\NTDS\ntds.dit; however it may be different in some cases. The output will tell you if the database is inconsistent and may produce
a jet_error 1206 stating that the database is corrupt. If the database is inconsistent or corrupt it will need to be recovered or repaired . To recover the database type the following at the command prompt: NTDSUTIL Files Recover If this fails with an error,
type quit until back at the command prompt and repair the database using ESENTUTL by typing the following: ESENTUTL /p “\NTDS.dit” /!10240 /8 /v /x /o (Note: Type the path without the quotes). Note: If you do not put the switches at the end of the command
you will most likely get a Jet_error 1213 “Page size mismatch” error.
10. Delete the log files in the NTDS directory, but do not delete or move the ntds.dit file.
11. The NTDSUTIL tool needs to be run again to check the Integrity of the database and to perform a Semantic Database analysis. To check the integrity, at the command prompt type: NTDSUTIL Files Integrity The output should tell you that the integrity check
completed successfully and prompt that you should perform a Semantic Database Analysis. Type quit. To perform the Semantic Database Analysis type the following at the NTDSUTIL Prompt type: Semantic Database Analysis Go The output will tell you that the Analysis
completed successfully. Type quit and closes the command prompt. NOTE: If you get errors running the Analysis then type the following at the semantic checker prompt: semantic checker: go fix This puts the checker in Fixup mode, which should fix whatever errors
there were.
12. Reboot the server to Normal Mode. If any of these steps fail to recover the database the only alternative is to perform an Authoritative System State restore from backup in Directory Services Restore mode. For more information, please refer to the following

Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition SP2 with all updates.
One server, 20 clients; of course the server is the domain controller.
I suggest running the command prompt window at an elevated security level ("run as:", followed by unchecking the "restricted" box).
I also suggest changing directories to C:\WINNT\NTDS or C:\WINDOWS\NTDS, as appropriate.
Variations:
The location of the NTDS folder is C:\WINDOWS\NTDS for an install that is not an upgrade from Server 2000.
Step 9 -- the parameters for ESENTUTL are different. For the integrity check I used "ESENTUTL /g NTDS.DIT /8" as the other parameters are not available.
Also in step 9 -- For the repair step that was required I used "ESENTUTL /p NTDS.DIT /8". There was a window warning of a possible data loss, which clicking OK cleared.
Step 11 -- NTDSUTIL FILES INTEGRITY works properly without change. However, the Semantic Database Analysis check cannot be run in a single command. I used "NTDSUTIL SEMANTIC DATABASE ANALYSIS" followed by "GO" at the next prompt. The database analysis does
not report a positive result, but if there is no warning the database passes the analysis. To be certain I ran the "GO FIX" step anyway, which gave identical output.
After this procedure the system started perfectly. I recommend this procedure as the answer to the problem.

SDMKIT.JAR The file is corrupt

Hi,
I'm trying to install NW04 SneakPeak Java edition and keep getting this error. I have tried extracting both the files together and into a directory with a small name (c:/nw4) as these seem to be common problems but I still get the same problem, Any suggestions?
!   CRC failed in NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11\NWSneakPreviewSP11\SneakPreviewContent\SDM\SDMKIT.JAR. The file is corrupt
Cheers,

I had this same problem. When I was trying to install I would the get the following error at the step "Install Java Engine".
ERROR 2006-12-30 18:10:24
MUT-03011 Execution of the command "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_09\bin\java.exe -classpath C:/DOCUME1/ADMINI1/LOCALS~1/Temp/sapinst_exe.1928.1167518691/JAR/ins-j2ee.jar com.sap.ins.j2ee.JarInfo -u C:/sap/DevWPInstallation\JAVA_EXPORT\SDM/SDMKIT.JAR" finished with return code 3. Output: C:/sap/DevWPInstallation\JAVA_EXPORT\SDM/SDMKIT.JAR is not a jar file!
I fixed it by using <b>WINRAR</b> freeware to extract the <b>.RAR</b> files.
My environment for installing SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR2 (SP9)
1. Download the two files Part1 (1.36 GB) and Part2 (1.34 GB)
2. JDK: jdk1.4.2_09
3. OS: Windows 2003 Server Evaluation version (6 months free @ microsoft.com)
4. Download and Install the WINRAR software on your machine.
5. Download JCE for Java from Java website.
Steps
1. Extract the two files in step 1 into the same folder. For ex: c:\s. Keep it short.
    After extraction the size of my c:\s folder is 2.77 GB.
2. Double click setup.bat. Wait for the program to run.
3. Its takes approximately two hours to completely install it from here.
    Try avoiding to UNINSTALL and INSTALL it might give you problems.
Thanks,

Error on extracting process: 'SDMKIT.JAR. The file is corrupt'

Hi,
I have both files (NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11.part1.rar and NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11.part2.rar) in the same directory but when I start the extracting process I got those messages:

I wonder to know what happend and how can I fix it.
Appreciate your help,
Luis.

Hi Luis,
I dont't know about a mirror. I downloaded the files and extract without problems.
In the following thread is an instruction how to uncompress:
How can I extract files of kind .rar?
Do you use Winrar? Do you select both files if you extract? Try to rename the directory SAP_portal to NW4 (or an other very short name)
Hope that helps!
Best regards
Renald

Event ID 55 NTFS Error: The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume.

One of our File Server getting this error. I explained to you what happened. One of the HDD has failed from this server, which is on RAID. So we put the new one. But we get the NTFS Error. We make the schedule to run the chkdsk /r /c. But still we get this
error on events viewer. Now i have the other problem is that this system's backup is taken care by Dell AppAssure application. this application took the snapshot of each hdd. but due to this error it stops. So I talk to the Dell person to resolve the problem,
but he said to resolve the problem of the NTFS Error. If you resolve this issue the application will work.
So can anyone please help me ASAP to resolve this issue? My sever operating system is Windows 2003 R2.
Thanks.

Doesn't the "/c" argument skip directory corruption tests? Have you tried just using "chkdsk /r" ?
The /I or /C switch reduces the amount of time required to run Chkdsk by skipping certain checks of the volume.

What is the cause of corrupt preferences?

I manage two macintosh computer labs and a number of windows based labs for a small liberal arts college. Lately, we have been encountering a surprisingly large number of students and faculty members who seem to have corrupt preference files for multiple applications and I am having trouble determining the cause. The common applications encountering these problems have been Flash MX, Swift 3D, and Final Cut Pro.
In each case, trashing their preferences and then relaunching the application resolved the issues. While this is an easy fix, the problem has been rather troublesome for our instructors and students.
I have tried explaining the removal of corrupt preferences to the instructors so they can perform it themselves if it is interrupting their courses, but they feel it is my job to do that and not theirs. I find it a little embarrassing to frequently be called into their classrooms for a 20 second fix and I'm sure they find the situations irksome and perhaps embarassing as well.
If at all possible, I would like to try to determine the cause of these corrupt preferences and take whatever actions may be available to try to prevent them from occurring as often, but I do not know where to begin.
Our setup:
An XServe running OS X Server 10.4.7 and Open Directory and AFP services.
An XRAID hosting all of the students' and faculty members' home directories.
Client computers, one lab Power Mac G5s and one lab Power Mac G4s, all with Mac OS X 10.4.7 on them. All users authenticate using OD accounts and remote home directories on AFP shares.
The image on the computers is the same image that was deployed at the beginning of this school term (back at the end of August) and has not been changed since. I'm not sure what could have changed that would have increased the likelyhood of preferences becoming corrupted.

As far as I know, its buggy software. If your school has an Apple tech support contract, you might try calling or emailing Apple to ask about this problem.

Is the \OTN Directory corrupted???
