Issues with MDM installation - Windows + MaxDB 7.7

I list here some observations resulting from the installation of MDM on Windows with MaxDB
You can find the documentation here:
http://service.sap.com/installMDM
Important is the Installation Guide.
1) only two files are needed:
MDM: 51032724.zip (more then 1GB)
MaxDB: http://service.sap.com/swdc
Support Packages and Patches, Additional Components, MaxDB, MAXDB 64-BIT, MAXDB 7.7 64-BIT -> MAXDB7702_16-10004357.SAR
2)
the installer propose sometime the path sdb and sometimes sapdb
I always used M:\sapdb\....
install the maxdb as explained in the inst. guide of mdm
http://service.sap.com/installMDM
( first client , then client+server)
mdm installation is straightforward
(3x server + some clients)
3) Install OSS 684106 (paragraph 3.2.1 in the installation guide)
4) restart the system after installing
5) start the console and use only the DB-User SAPMDMDB with password SAP
6) After creating a repository, log in using the user Admin and no PW
7) capital letter are in general important

Hi Manish,
       Here are other some problems you may face...
      1) 7.1 does not support some of the database charset which was supported in 5.5, which may lead to re-installation of database...
      2) Multiple workflows on single record was supported in 5.5 but its no longer possible with 7.1, which may lead to redesign of existing scenarious...
      3) A strict ristriction is added in Import manager xml maps, which requires single root element in xml. There is autimatic transformation step for doing this, but dont know how much it works accuretly...
      4) Tuple is added as new structure, but is has more restriction than the qualified lookup, validation are applicable for qualified lookup but you cannot write validation and assignment on multivalued tuple...
      5) PI Adapter is marketed as "it can directly intereact with MDM", but as such there is no advantage because only ftp will get replaced with java api calls, and PI/XI cannot directly read-from or write-to MDM. all the file transfer via import and syndicator remain same continuing "BLACK BOX Communication" bettween MDM and PI/XI.

Issues With CS4 Installation on Win 8?

I purchased CS4 (Web Premium) on disc several years ago, and it has been working fine on my Win XP computer ever since. The Adobe software has all the current updates, though I am using the CS4 version of Acrobat Pro (9.xx) rather than a more recent (free) version of Reader.,
Unfortunately, my computer's hard drive has fried, and I just purchased a new Windows 8 machine, which will arrive shortly. I am trying to determine:
1. Are there any general issues with CS4 installation on Win 8 that I should know about in advance?
2. Are there specific procedures (de-activation?) that I need to follow BEFORE attempting the installation on the new computer?
3. Other than specific user issues, are there problems with CS4 versus Windows 8 that I would not encounter with Windows 7.
I enhance photos and create web sites for a living, so the CS4 installation is mission-critical. I am hoping I did not make a mistake in ordering a Win 8 machine...
Thanks for any and all insights.

OK, fair enough. Maybe someone who has actually experienced this situation (CS4 --> Win 8 machine) might see this and offer some tips to avoid hassles. But I will try the install as soon as I get the new machine and post any ensuing issues/problems here.
As for de-activation of the previous installation on the XP machine, that is now impossible, as the hard-drive is fried. Unless there is a way to de-activate an installation some other way (without actually opening the programs). That said, I AM able to access files on the fried harddrive, so if there is a specific file that controls de-activation, I could access it on the old machine. However, I may not be able to actually RUN said file on that machine, but can copy it to a stick and move it elsewhere. So, any thoughts on deactivation of an installation on a deceased computer?

Issue with implementing Find window

Hi,
I am facing an issue with implementing Find window. The find window everything is working fine, but when I am opening the form I am facing the following error
'Error: To retrieve the Information in this block, use menu option view -> query by example -> Enter to invoke enter-query mode, then view -> Query by example > Run to run your query..'
when I click 'Ok', it is navigating to the FInd window.
How can I avoid the above error message?
And also after searching, I navigate to the main window to display the records, but the 'Find' torch icon is not getting enabled, how do I that?
Thanks,
Ramu

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I have the QUERY_FIND trigger with the code as 'APP_STANDARD.EVENT('QUERY_FIND');'
And also 'first navigation data block ' to my result block. Now that the error is gone, But still the Find Icon is not enabled
Please advice.
Thanks,
Ramu

Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
Thanks, Stan

It's a toshiba laptop.
4 gig DDR3
core duo
320 hard drive - partitioned
I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop. I've noticed having a
dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing. This might be
your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems. I usaully am making
a DVD of soccer games. If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
desktop that has XP.

Many issues with WRT160N v3 (Windows 7 related?)

Ok so here's the story.
Several months ago I purchased a WRT160N v2. I was connecting four devices. 1 XP machine, 1 Vista machine, 1 PS3, and 1 Xbox 360.
The XP machine is using Wireless-N PCI Adapter model no. WMP300N. The Vista machine is using a Wireless-N USB Network Adapter with Dual-Band, model no. WUSB600N
The process was fairly straight forward and I was successful in getting everything set up correctly. It worked great for the most part barring any unexpected wireless crashes.
A few weeks ago I accidentally bricked the router when trying to upgrade the firmware. It was my mistake and I should have been thinking but it happened. I was able to get a replacement from Linksys and I received the WRT160N v3
Sadly this router hasn't provided me with the same easy of installation.
Right now the situation is a little different than before. I am running a Windows 7 machine right now. It's up to date and working great. I haven't noticed any issues with the OS other than some random driver issues here and there.
I first attempted to just plug the router into my modem to see if my Windows 7 machine would automatically see it and connect. To my surprise it actually did. It connected and I was able to get online.
But here's the problem, my speed when connected was horrible. It would range anywhere from 75-1Mbps. For comparison, when on Windows XP I would get a locked 130Mbps. In addition to that, the LAN connection will not work. At all. It see's the connect, it shows it's connected and online. Then when I attempt to get online it fails and knocks me back to local access only.
I then attempted to set up the connection using the included disc for v3. This was problematic due to compatibility issues I assume. It didn't fair any better.
The final thing I did was plug my computer directly to the router without connection to the internet and disconnected from the Wireless and attempted to upgrade the firmware. THIS PROCESS WAS SUCCESSFUL. It did not fail and brick the router. I did it correctly this time. To repeat, this did not brick the router.
Ok, so I guessed it was due to Windows 7? I called Linksys up and they said they were unable to support the unreleased beta OS. I'm fine with that.
Next I decided to see if I could get my Vista machine online. With this I decided to run through the setup process that comes with router. I followed the steps to the T. Doing exactly what they told me to do. When it finished it showed it did have connection to the Internet. When the Linksys Easy Link Advisor started up and attempted to get me on wireless, it failed. It shows it lost connection and was unable to regain connection. Attempting to statically assign myself an IP address fails as well.
Using the LANA port with this router on the Vista machine works perfectly.
Right now I'm falling back to a very very old router. It's a Linksys Network Everywhere NR041 wired router. This router works rock solid with my Vista, Windows 7, PS3, and 360 all plugged in and only has some minor overheating issues (common with this model).
My questions:
Does the WRT160N v3 have issues with Windows 7?
Why exactly am I have so many issues with it at all?
Are there issues with my wireless card and Windows 7?
Would the compatibility issues cause the LAN connections to fail between the router and my Windows 7 machine?
Is there a better router solution for me?
I would prefer to not have to revert back to Windows XP as I am enjoying Windows 7.
I would appreciate any help I can get as I'm fairly unhappy with these two products so far.
Thank you.

There is a compatibilty issue with the Wireless Adapter and Windows 7 as it seems there are no specific Windows 7 Drivers to install the adapter...So basically that could be the reason why Windows 7 keeps loosing the Wireless Connection...
Also remember to reset the router to factory defaults after any firmware upgrade, then setup the router again from scratch. If you have not done this since your last firmware upgrade, please do this now and see if it corrects your problem. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
To reset the router press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
Don't use the CD to re-configure the router, instead do a manual setup...
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this link
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this link
Also adjust the Wireless Settings on your Router -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...
Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select AES...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

Website Owner having new issues with Clients and Windows 8

I own a website that has a home-programmed chat. We've been in business about 12 years without any issues with compatibility. The chat is programmed in C and runs in a standard browser.
Lately I've had a few users (3 or 4) that have upgraded their machines and can no longer run the chat.
Most users that use Windows 8, or 7, or Vista, or whatever, have no problems. They can use the latest versions of IE, Firefox, Chrome, whatever they choose.
However, these users with problems can use none of the above.
I've gone through standard programs that block a chat, like firewalls and other spyware preventions. Shutting these off doesn't resolve the problem. Conflicting programs doesn't seem to be an issue, either. They aren't touch screen so I don't believe it
is a problem with the video card.
So that brings me back to the OS. The common thread seems to be that they are HP computers, and they have a new install of Windows 8. I think that there might be a missing DLL or other C Library that HP's installation of Windows 8 might be lacking.
Any suggestions on if I'm on the right track, and more importantly, how do I fix this problem?

Hi，
Seems this is a web-based chatting program, I suggest you add the site to a compatibility view list, (launch IE, Tools\Compatibility View list) then check this issue again. Check the error message and infromation recorded in the event viewer to find out
the cause.
Make sure the computers have all the latest updates, especially for video and audio drivers.
Clear the cache\temporary internet files in IE, or test this issue in a no add-ons mode.
From your description, it also sounds like a "defect\bug" for the chatting-program on Windows 8 on HP computers, if so, it should be related with development. you may find more help in the developer forum

Uiadump32 - issue with 64 bit windows 7 recovery?

My daughter has a HP DV6 Laptop model 2010sa.
The hard drive has failed but when we use the recovery disks we get an error about uiadump32 failing.
When I use the recovery DVDs for the laptop, it loads them and then restarts a couple of times. BUT, when it gets to the windows setup screen, listing "Preparing driver installation" etc, a failure occurs. uiadump32.exe has stopped working.
From other research it seems existing partitions can be an issue, but the drive was wiped using fdisk on a linux live boot before installation. It looks to me like the recovery manager needs to be updated in some way (WIndows 7 is 64 bit on this laptop).
Any one a solution?
Thanks

Hi,
Assuming this is just an issue with the recovery process, there's a straight forward work-around you may want to consider.
Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the exact same version of Windows that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

Multiple issues with new installation

I have several issues with my fresh installation of arch (just got myself a free old-as laptop , thus trying out arch for the first time as I usually run gentoo), and I'm not sure where these should go. I figure that I may as well lump them all at once while I'm at it.
The laptop model is a Toshiba Dynabook TX/430DX Japanese laptop similar to a Tecra A2 afaik.
1. If I use stock ARCH kernel, when I load up x11 it seems to be using some wrong drivers or something. Tried with and without xorg.conf. The screen is all fuzzy etc. However, I compiled my own kernel (the Zen sources), took out a whole bunch of drivers I knew I wouldn't be using (etc. SATA/IDE/extra whatnot so that it would merely take 3 hours to compile the kernel), x11 works fine. HOWEVER with the zen sources, when I close x11 I can't exit to console. I get some sort of weird artefact from what happened to be on the screen, or it just goes black. It does actually seem to be in console as I can turn off the laptop with ctrl.alt.del and the capslock etc seems to work fine. I'm thinking of recompiling the zen sources with the stock arch kernel config when I have the time just to see what happens, but I'm not too sure it'd help.
The VGA device is an: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Intergrated Graphics Device (rev 02), using the intelfb module.
2. In most consoles I've used, if you type in part of a command then press ctrl.up/down, it autocompletes with previous commands you've run matching what you've already entered. However, in my install it brings me to the very first command in my bash history. How do I make it autocomplete previous commands?
3. When I use wvdial (I have a mobile modem), I get odd characters as shown in the screenshot posted.
I don't think it's a unicode issue, as ncmpcpp displays properly. This displays itself both in the console and in x11 (screenshot).
4. If I'm using the stock kernel and I stop wvdial, I get a whole bunch of kernel error trace messages. After this, anything that goes to dmesg will be displayed to whatever terminal I'm on (but not actually echoed, it gets overwritten if I change screen etc). Wvdial is also prone to crashing, sometimes taking out the whole laptop. However, while using the zen kernel I do not suffer this issue at all.
Any help in helping me find the source of these issues would be greatly appreciated. They're not showstopping issues, but extremely irritating nonetheless.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I created a zen kernel based on the arch stock kernel. Unsurprisingly, I still suffer from the x11 video issue. However, I don't have issues with number 4.

Sync issue with 650 to windows XP Pro

Issues with airport and windows XP

just installed XP on my mac (cant believe i just typed that!) and running airport extreme and expresses (no WEP) and can connect on the macbook running OSX (10.4.6) no problem. boot into XP (pro) and i get a connection, strong signal, all that jazz, but when i launch explorer, no connection. I have tried to ping google.com from the command line, again, nada.
But the signal strength is good on the XP side, and connecting fine when logged in on the OSX side.

Beatriz,
Not that we know of, but honesty forces me to say that we haven't tested it ourselfs yet, since we still use Windows/2000.
On the other hand, from my experience issues with CDM always were more dependent on the version of the browser
or Word you are using and less of Windows versions. It would not surprise me if using the Word templates with
Word from Office XP would know some issues. Those would than be caused by changed behaviour in the way Word
deals with macro's.
What the rest of the iDevelopment Accellerator Suite concerns, this can be easily found out by checking the
compatability of Designer and Developer against Windows XP.

Screen display issue with InDesign CS4 (Windows)

I just upgraded from CS2 to CS4. I can open and use InDesign with no problems, until I try to switch to another application. Then, when I try to go back to InDesign, all I can see is the portion of the bar at the top of the screen that shows the link to Bridge, the view options and a bit of the outline of a palette or two. I have a two monitor setup. Most of the palettes are on the auxillary monitor and they show up just fine. The main display is where I'm having the issue. I can toggle in and out of Photoshop with no display issues. I haven't tried working with anything else from the CS4 package besides InD and Photoshop. This was not an issue with any CS2 product (Dreamweaver, Fireworks, InDesign, Photoshop, Flash). Nor has it been an issue with any of the other software I am running (so far).
When the display vanishes, I can see the "data" from the program I was trying to toggle out of. For example, if I try to toggle between this page and InD right now, I can see most of this page except for the part of the page obscured by the outline of the control palette (that one reminiscent of pagemaker) and the little bits at the top. I can't see the project I'm working on. I can't see the File/Edit/etc. bar at the top of the page. A Control/Shift/Save will lock up the program completely. Then, I see the "save as" menu box (in addition to the browser screen around it) but the program is locked up. I can close everything on the computer and reboot and open InDesign to resume work--that is until I need to do something like edit a photo to drop into a layout. Then the issue occurs all over again.
Windows machine; XP Pro, service pack 3 build 2600; NVidea GeForce 9600 GT graphics card.

Bob, thanks for the info about the 6.0.2 patch. I'll try grabbing that today. This morning, on the first boot, I can't even see the program when I open it--just the snip of the command palette and part of the very top bar. Very irritating.
Peter, I have tried maximizing, closing, reopening, etc. everything else I can think of. Same issue. I finally just bit the bullet and went back to CS2, rebuilding the current project so I can get the work done by deadline. I'll look for new video drivers this afternoon after I get back on track timewise on this newsletter. Weird that this display issue should just affect the one Adobe program though, and not the others if it is a video driver problem. I didn't do a lot of work in Dreamweaver--just enough to see if it displayed the same weird behaviour. Nope. Nor does Photoshop. Nor does Bridge. Nor does Acrobat. nor does any other software on the machine.

Issues with CDM and Windows XP?

Hi,
My client is planning an upgrade to Windows XP Professional. They use the I-Development Accelerators, including the CDM.
Are there any known issues or problems with using CDM in an XP environment?
THanks,

Is there an issue with Swing on Windows 7?

Hi,
I'm running the latest version of Java on Windows 7. "java -version" returns the following:
java version "1.6.0_21"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_21-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 17.0-b17, mixed mode, sharing)
However, when I try to run the JDialog example at "http://download-llnw.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/" (JDialog | How to Make Dialogs | The DialogDemo Example), it is not being painted correctly.
I have a dual monitor setup. The display adapter is an NVIDIA GeForce FX5200. Is this a Windows 7 issue, or is something going wrong with my display adapter?
Thanks very much.

In short, components are not being painted fully or at all. If I mouse over the dialog (which I'm guessing forces a repaint), sometimes a given component will appear. In any case, it's not subtle. You would definitely notice it if it were occurring.
Thanks for having a look though. I guess I will try re-installing the JRE or research possible issues with my video card.

Issues with Facebook; Chat window problems; can't minimize window , and send chat as message when one receiver logs off.

While using Firefox I have an 2 issues with Facebook chat. 1. Cannot minimize (-) the chat window, only close it (x).

Compatibility Issues with CS2 and Windows 2000 XP??? This is supposed to be THE one operating system CS2 DOES WORK ON? Can someone help - I really need my CS2 back! Thanks.

HELP! Years ago - SEVEN to be exact- I PURCHASED Adobe CS2 and used it extensively. Then I was in an accident that took five years to recover from. After my recovery I tried to get back to using my Adobe products only to find that Adobe was discouraging use of CS2 and since I OWN a LICENSE and that was the LAST version I used I wanted to begin again with a version I am familiar with. Many months later, apparently I wasn't the only one who wanted to KEEP USING CS2 and now Adobe has made it possible to download this version for PC and MAC, BUT due to OS compatibility issues Adobe continues to discourage downloading and use. HERE'S THE THING: I have the SAME SYSTEM running the SAME OS as when I first PURCHASED IT. I have downloaded the EXACT SAME VERSION of CS2. It installs fine. But I cannot OPEN the application and the troubleshooter reports there are "COMPATIBILITY ISSUES". WHY?!?!?!?!?
I'm on a PC running Windows 2000 XP. I OWN a LICENSE for Adobe CS2 and it used to run on this very same machine. I had to re-format my system two years ago so it has much more free space but when I try to OPEN the application it won't run. When I run the Windows Troubleshooter it reports system compatibility issues?! Can anyone advise me what to try now??? Thank you.

Yes, I have. My system was completely cleaned of everything and I'm just now RE-INSTALLING CS2 for Windows2000 XP from the Adobe site that gives you versions to select for your OS. I have successfully downloaded disks 1,2 and 3 and I can INSTALL disks 1 and 2, but it FAILS at disk 3. I REALLY need to resolve this today because I need to submit some work by tomorrow and the troubleshooting isn't helping!
Can you advise anything else . . . anyone? Thank you!
