Is there something that needs to be done in response to deadlock victims?

So, Friday I got a report by one user about an unusual error seen. It appeared to be a one time error that went away when the page refreshed.
I went to the logs, tried to find an associated message to see if there were actions to take.
(Boy, I wish there were a series of books for SP admins that covered all the event and ULS log entries and what action to take to resolve them)
When I got onto one of the farm servers to look at logs, the event log had a number of unusual warnings and errors.
I am taking a look at some of these to see if there is something that needs to be done.
One of the errors - which has occurred 3 times in December - is related to the search software. One says "Foundation Search" and the other two say "Server Search".
So, are these the kinds of things that an admin should just ignore at this noise level (3 in 2 weeks) or is there something that should be done?
The warning is 57 and says that a database error occurred - a transaction was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and was chosen as the deadlock victim.
The first 2 times the application was Search_Service_Application, while the most recent occurrence was
'Search_index_file_on_the_search_server'.

Hi Iwvirden,
Deadlocks on SharePoint databases may cause performance issues in SharePoint.
So if the error occurs on SharePoint content databases and occurs many times, then you need to troubleshoot this issue in SQL:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/christwe/archive/2014/02/06/what-can-i-do-about-the-deadlocks.aspx
If the deadlocks occur on Search databases, then you can ignore them if there are not too many errors.

By the way, the errors about search displayed in the ULS log should be checked as these errors may influence your search function.
Best regards.
Thanks

  • Are there changes that need to be done to the template?

    I am working on a Supplier Workplace application and attempting to print a delivery. A pdf file is generated in the same browser window. When I try pressing the back button in the browser, the system dumps with the message "An error message had been received from the Web AS. No template was
    found for the basic screen of the error message (program: "SAPMSYST" scre
    number: 40), and therefore the ITS service had to be terminated."
    I understand there has been a session termination and that if the pdf were to open in a new window, it wouldnt cause problems. However if I wish to use the back button in the same browser window, is there something I could do to retain the session? Does it involve changes in application side or some parameters in the HTML template?
    As far as I could understand, R/3 converts otf to pdf and sends it to ITS, but where and how is the pdf browser back button handled?
    The system is a ECC 6.0 system that has an integrated ITS.

    hi,
    generated dynpro checks if there exists a particular template in the theme for that screen if it exists then it used that template else it generates the template for that screen on its own.
    it wont have any permanent problems as such.
    if you want to generate pdf in a new window then i suggest you make changes at the application level u can call a pdf in the custom control.
    pz11_pdf transaction could be of help.
    Regards,

  • I keep getting errors when iTunes uploads newly-imported music to iCloud through iTunes Match. Is there something that needs to be corrected when importing my music?

    Here is the what the message window says when I click on the iCloud symbol with an exclamation point:
    "This item was not added to iCloud because an error occurred."
    It happens erratically.  I thought it was my computer at home (a PC), so I tried importing the music on my work computer (an iMac).
    It happens on both, and the same songs. Sometimes it's up to half of the songs on a CD.
    I can't figure out why it's doing this.

    Sounds like your library database may be being corrupted. With iTunes 11 an "empty" library will show the previous purchases of the account that is currently signed in. To prevent this go to iTunes Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Have you actually checked the hard drive to see if the media is still present? Chances are you need to restore an older library file in the way set out below...
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    The images are from Windows XP, but the principle is the same. Depending on the age of you library the library file may not include the .itl extension.

  • Brand new IPOD touch does not work w Bose speaker docking station is there anything that needs to be done?. The Nano that I have works fine.

    My new Ipod touch is not working with my Bose Speaker docking station. My Nano works fine.
    Any reasons for this?

    Does Bose say it will work with your model iPod and iOS?
    Does it appear that the iPod fully seating in the dock?

  • HT1338 I download Adobe Flash but it doesn't install. Each time I encounter something that needs Adobe Flash it tells me I don't have it. I am getting tired downloading it and then it isn't there.

    I download Adobe Flash but it doesn't install. Each time I encounter something that needs Adobe Flash it tells me I don't have it. I am getting tired downloading it and then it isn't there.

    install_flash_player_10_osx.dmg
    install_flash_player_10_osx-1.dmg
    install_flash_player_10_osx-2.dmg
    install_flash_player_10_osx-3.dmg
    install_flash_player_10_osx-4.dmg
    etc to -9
    Those are the ones you downloaded. Ten times, apparently. Since install_flash_player_10_osx.dmg already existed, the next download was appended with -1. The next -2, etc. They'll all be identical, so it doesn't matter which one you use. Though I'd go with the last one as it may be a slightly updated version from the first download, depending on how long ago you did the first one.
    A .dmg file is a Disk Image. When you double click them, they open up a pseudo drive on the desktop. When you open one of these ten items, the Flash installer will appear in a file window. Run it to install Flash. Then close the file window (displaying from the psuedo drive) and then put the "drive" in the trash to dismount it. You can then delete all of those.
    Looks like you also downloaded the Adobe Reader twice. Versions 10.1.2 and 10.1.3. Also Skype, whatever the Thomson thing is, and an unnecessary Flash uninstaller (the Flash installer will put an uninstaller in the Utilities folder).

  • HI!  I have a new macbook air but having difficulty connecting to a router if I am about 10 meters away.  My iMac, iPad, iPhones and iPods can connect easily.  Is there something that I need to configure?  I have no issues if I am close to it.  Thank you!

    Hello, If you are dealing with one of the really thin iMac's that have no superdrive, then the superdrive icon should not appear on the desktop when you plug it in, but when you put in a disk (CD, DVD, etc.) that should appear. If you go into disk utility, and look at superdrive, that should be clickable and not grayed out when you have it plugged in. If this does not show up in disk utility, go to Apple, and ask to speak to their supervisor, speaking to a customer service agent is like talking to a potato, nothing gets done. Good Luck!

  • Have a number badge in settings that won't go away and there are no updates that need to be done.  Help!!!

    On my settings, there is a number one (red) that won't go away.  There are no updates that need to be done.

    Maybe you should try updating 5.1.1 from iTunes? Because I had the same thing and it was 5.0.1.

  • TS3367 My problem is that the other person can hear me but I can't hear them. I have turned the volume up but that did not help.  Is there something that I need to do in the controls for us to hear each other.  Thank you for your input.

    My problem is that when using face time either I can hear the person and they cannot hear me or they can hear me and I cannot hear them.  Is there something I need to do in the controls to take care of this issue?  Thank you for your response.

    Diannie-
    Since you sometimes can hear, and sometimes can be heard, your iPad is probably working OK.
    But what about the other parties?  Is it always the same prson who can not hear you?  Is it always the same (but different) person you can not hear?  In other words, the problems could be at the other end.
    You and your friends might try the Skype App.  Once registered, you can access Skype's test server to check your audio.  It lets you speak for several seconds, and then plays it back.

  • LG G2 When I select share while in the gallery, facebook doesn't come up as an option.  Is there something I need to set up differently?

    LG G2 When I select share while in the gallery, facebook doesn't come up as an option.  Is there something I need to set up differently?

    Did you go to the Playstore and download the Facebook app? Try that and see if that works.
    I don't use FB, but I read somewhere other people having problems with sharing in KK as well. You could try a download like "Andmade share" to see if that works for you if the previous idea doesn't.

  • I bought a used sprint 4s and tried to put my motorola sim which is also on sprint network into phone but it doesnt work is there something i need to do to make it work or am i SOL?

    I bought a used sprint 4s and tried to put my motorola sim which is also on sprint network into phone but it doesnt work is there something i need to do to make it work or am i SOL? major problem is that my current motorola phone is issued to me from my employer but phone ***** so i want to upgrade to the ipone i purchased but it still needs to work like my company phone as they pay the bill.  help me pls

    A Sprint iPhone uses CDMA when in the US.  The SIM is used only when not in the US.
    To use it in the US, you have to have Sprint activate it, but it is unlikely they will activate in on your company's account.

  • Is there something that auto reinstalls old packages from cache?

    You pacman -Syu and something broke - you dont have time to figure out what. All you know is that 20 minutes ago your configuration worked and that you have not pacman -Sc yet. You can figure out later what went wrong, right now you just want a worked system.
    Is there something that already that scans the cache and at least lists the packages that are in the cache that are not installed? So that you can quickly just pacman -S $(them) ???

    one-liners ftw!
    pacman -Q | while read name vers; do LC_ALL=C; find /var/cache/pacman/pkg -name $name* | grep -v $vers | sort -r | head -n1; done
    lists highest version of all installed packages found in your cache not including the installed version.  good luck managing that output
    /edit: the better approach would be to tail /var/log/pacman.log and reverse whatever the -Syu just did using the pacman -U command mentioned before.
    /edit2: at eldragon below: useless use of cat is useless

    This is actually based on how the site handles different file types; Hotmail gives it to the browser as "application/octet-stream" or something like it, whereas sites that properly open it in the browser tag it as "application/pdf". Unfortunately there's nothing you can do about this without setting up a proxy to rewrite the HTTP headers. Complaints to Hotmail in the past haven't worked, and it's not possible to override the behavior in Firefox.

  • Is there something I need to do to get passbook to work ?

    I am my able to get passbook to work. Is there something I need to do to make it work

    There have been many many threads on this.  Here is what is going on.  When Apple made Passbook, it was almost like a showcase for business that wish to participate.  The problem is that Apple build a nice stage, but none of the businesses learned the music.  so to speak.  Starbucks says that they will be ready by October.  In the meanwhile, if you select the appstore button when you open Passbook, you will see the apps that are ready or currently working toward integration. 
    There is also a website called www.passsource.com in which you can make your own, email them to yourself and it will move into the Passbook app.  I tried Best Buy and Staples using this website already and it worked out ok.  As far as out of the box functionality, not really there yet.
    Cheers

  • When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but no hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro

    When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
    If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.

    This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
    Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume)  or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call.

  • HT1218 My airport utility no longer works, but I have just changed my router.  Is there something I need to do ?  The orange light shows up on my airport, rather than the green one it should have.  Please help !!!

    My airport utility no longer works, but I have just changed my router.  Is there something I need to do ?  The orange light shows up on my airport, rather than the green one it should have.  Please help !!!

    **** little info about your equipment.
    If you just replaced the router with an Airport Extreme or Express:
    disconnect the modem from power, disconnect the new router from power, connect the modem to power and wait till it os fully started up, then connect the new router to power. After a while the amber light will turn to flashing, then after a while it will turn to green. Then with AirportUtility (in Aplications/Utilities) it should be configured with the password.
