JobOwner doesn't have permissions to use proxy 1 for subsystem CmdExec

Hi All, 
I got a strange issue on my SQL Jobs which run with Proxy. Some of the times, the SQL jobs run under job owner, instead of proxy account. Furthermore, it causes the SQL jobs failed. 
"JobOwner doesn't have permissions to use proxy 1 for subsystem CmdExec"
Kindly need an assistance on this issue.
Note*: I have another solution by changing the job owner of the SQL jobs to user account of SQL Agent service. But in this case I want to keep current the job owner. 
Thanks, 
HR

can you confirm if you did the same as explained in the last part of the blog?

Also could you confirm if your proxy account has access to the subsystem and if not check this link to update it.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186760.aspx
select ss.subsystem as 'subsystem name', sp.name as 'proxy name' from
msdb.dbo.syssubsystems ss inner join msdb.dbo.sysproxysubsystem sps
on ss.subsystem_id = sps.subsystem_id
Inner join msdb.dbo.sysproxies sp
on sps.proxy_id = sp.proxy_id
You could run this to see if the proxy has access to subsystem.

  • Question why has my balance on my itune account have totally disappeared when I have only been using it for less than a year? had still fair bit of money in it too. around $60

    Question why has my balance on my itune account have totally disappeared when I have only been using it for less than a year? had still fair bit of money in it too. around $60

    First, make sure you're logged into the iTunes Store using the account ID and password you set up, or used, when you redeemed your card/gift.  If you are, try signing out of the account and back in.
    If you're sure you are using the correct account and that you're signing in to the iTunes Store, and signing out and back in doesn't help, go to the Purchase History and review your purchases to make sure that you should indeed have a balance left. iTunes doesn't always refresh the balance it shows, so it's possible you spent the money and it just wasn't being reflected in the display. This display error can usually be corrected by logging out of the iTunes Store and then back in.
    If you confirm that you should have balance left but the iTunes Store isn't showing it correctly, send a message to the iTunes Store customer service department through the contact form you'll find by selecting the most applicable section of their Support page (select the Contact Support link and follow the instructions) and explain the problem to them.
    Good luck.

  • How to use proxy for all application in XFCE?

    Hi all,
    Is there any way I can setup a proxy and then all applications over XFCE can use it, just like the Internet Option in Windows?
    I tried "export PROXY=..." in command line and setup proxy for Firefox, but those setting is not for overall system.
    If unfortunately there is no way for global setting, at least please tell me how to setup proxy for svn command.
    Thank you.

    Sign in with whatever Apple ID desired on the device in iMessage setup.
    This has no affect on the Apple ID used for store purchases or iCloud.

  • Proxy.pac file not working for using proxy for selected websites

    After changing my ISP, i cant connect to Bluenest.org directly but with proxy. I can also connect by setting manual proxy server for all websites. But I dont want to do that as there is a bit security problem. I just wrote Proxy.pac files to use proxy sever for that particular website & put its location on Automatic Proxy Configuration. But its not working. I va tried with two types of .pac files. Given the code of the files below.....
    First one..........
    <pre><nowiki>
    function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
    if (shExpMatch(url, "http://bluenest.org") || localHostOrDomainIs(host, "http://www.bluenest.org"))
      return "PROXY 204.45.138.4:80";
     else
      return "DIRECT";
    </nowiki></pre>
    Second one......
    <pre><nowiki>function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
    if(!isResolvable(host))
    return "DIRECT";
    return "PROXY 204.45.138.4:80";
    }</nowiki></pre>
    but none of them working. Please help.
    Can you please tell which proxy server is fastest & safest.
    Thanx in advance

    I submitted a bug report to Apple. The problem is present since 10.9.2, now with 10.10 and iOS. I hope they will take this problem seriously.

  • Lync Phone Edition and wpad.dat - using proxy for firmware updates

    Our Lync Phone Edition devices seem determined to use our proxy server for firmware updates, even though the server is directly accessible.
    Has anyone else experienced this?  Is there a workaround?  
    The phones are learning of the wpad.dat file via DHCP 252.  The wpad file has several rules that should be causing a bypass but none is taking effect.   The proxy is dropping the traffic because it doesn't match a rule.

    Are you saying that the phone will bypass the proxy if it learns the server name via DHCP but it will use the proxy (and ignore the local names list in wpad.dat) if it learns the name via DNS-based discovery and SIP registration?

  • Mobilserver uses proxy for all connections

    Hi,
    I got a weird thingy with the mobileserver and usage of the proxy which may by configured in the admin web interface.
    I thought the proxy will only be used to access the internet e.g. to send push or installation SMS via nokia.com. In our case the proxy is used by the mobilserver for all traffic also for connections from mobilserver to groupwise SOAP port. Both server (groupwise and mobileserver) are situated in the same network so there is no need to use the proxy.
    GWMS Build Number 9.2.0.96 on SLES 10 SP3
    SecureGW same build same server.

  • I have been happily using Firefox for years. I soneloaded 5 and after hours of agony deleted Firefox and am using IE. I have tried to download FF 4 but your system won't let me. So either you get me 4 back or I will stay with IE.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • No application registered for the message - when using Proxy !

    I am using ABAP Proxy to sent my messages from legacy to SAP R3. All my settings seem to be okie. But I get this message and the error log says
    'The application that implements the inbound interface could not be called. The error is not specific to the configuration.
    The error ID DYNAMIC_CALL_FAILURE can refer to an error in the application. The error may be due to conversion errors that have not be caught in the application.'
    Any clues on what could be wrong.
    I have tried Debugging the Proxy but the breakpoint thta I set does not seem to get executed. I know how to Debugg the proxy and have done it before. But I have no clue on what is happening !

    Hi Manish,
    Check the inbound interface you have specified in Configuration.Is the same interface is specified in inbound proxy i.e have you genrated your proxy for the same interface.
    Hope it helps
    Thanx.

  • Cluster doesn't have operational quorum - one node of the cl couldnt reach

    Hi All,
    (I posted this issue at an other forum but I thought this one is more suitable, sorry to post it again)
    I'd like to ask help regarding to the problem I had which made me
    block. Unfortunately my investigation was not good enough.
    Here is the brief description below;
    I have a V440 cluster and one of the node could not boot up
    successfully, startup log says me;
    cluster doesn't have operational quorum yet; waiting for quorum.
    what I did were;
    1./ booting both nodes at the same time - didn't work
    2./ shutdown good node and only started up bad node - didn't work
    3./ replaced cluster interconnect cables with working cables - didn't
    work
    Please take a look at the startup log and let me know what I should do
    further.
    Your helps will be really appreciated for me thx,

    So the heartbeat networks between the two machines aren't working. Without that, the existing node won't allow this node to join the cluster and then release its reservations.

    ---hi,
    thanks,
    but interconnects are connected point-to-point and working fine on other clusters, so How can I investigate heartbeat networks?
    on the other side as you said bad node can not boot up.

  • Why doesn't SAP use SAPUI5 for this and that

    This is my personal opinion about this topic! Again and again I stumble about this and now I want to share some of my thoughts about this topic. I want to share this from a point of view, when I was not a SAP Employee - I worked at a SAP Partner company - because this best reflects the view from the outside.
    1. SAP "wants" us to use SAPUI5
    I don't think that "wants" is the right word - the right word is offers! In terms of: hey now even included in your license and open sourced (because you wanted it so). Look - we build sooo many Fiori apps with it - and put in some great enterprise features (right to left, accessibility, translation, ...) and it is responsive. So if you want to build Fiori-like "apps" - there you go - this is your technology to go! This is what I understood.
    I was very very very happy that it was build with open standards. But the main point for me another thing - (because I worked with Sybase Unwired Platform and SAP Mobile Platform) OMG an open data protocol!!! OData FTW! I could use ANY front-end technology and consume SAP data - the protocol is REST based - a dream came true. And so I did - yes I played around with Sencha Touch and OData, I used data.js and used it in a standard HTML5 application. We played around with an iOS application we already had and consumed the data. I feed the data into d3.js. I prototyped around with SAPUI5 and I have build apps with it. Brilliant, so I could choose whatever UI technology I wanted.
    I always had the feeling, that SAPUI5 was meant for B2E applications - and building many of that - and they should look and feel the same and I can theme the apps. I can use it when I want to make my applications SAP like - so that the user thinks the apps are all the same and everything fits nicely into the Fiori launchpad - great if you want to build partner apps. In my ex company we won a SAP Pinnacle Award - for a native iOS app, no SAPUI5 in sight - but we have received an award, so SAP did not "want us" to use SAPUI5 ;-)
    2. Is it the right UI technology for everything?
    At my ex-company I was dealing with mobile applications and web apps. I always knew that I get the best user experience when I write a real native application and if you want it to look like in a very specific way with awesome UI --> you would not do it with a write-once-run-everywhere HTML5 super-styled wrapped (phone gap/cordova) app - you would write the apps for the specific platform and it should feel like it was written for the platform. SAP offered us the SAP Fiori Client that I could enhance the user experience for the Fiori apps, but I was never told to use SAPUI5 it for everything.
    The same discussion goes on with: why was the new SAP website not build with SAPUI5, or the UX Explorer (eat your own dog food), or a useful internal app - why Angular, or the other way around why do we even use SAPUI5 and not Angular JS itself. Back to the past - SAP did never tell me to build a website with it, or to build something tiny and small with it (a widget) - or to enhance parts of a website with it - or to build something super-specific with it.
    And yes maybe the UI in a mobile app was not SAPUI5 but do you know if it uses Gateway with OData or the SAP Mobile Platform, was the API managed with Apigee, was HCI involved in getting the data from different sources, was it maybe wrapped with SAP Mobile Secure, did it maybe use a HANA backend or some of its features (predictions, text analytics, ...) - are some backend parts maybe hosted on HCP - who knows? So yeah, maybe other SAP technology was involved which you don't see, but in the end it made your life simpler.
    Instead of arguing around why this and that was used for this and that - can we save our energy and instead look at the result - which is all what counts - that it was the right UI technology with the right user interface which makes the user happy? I stated something like - does Google use AngularJS for everything? Nope. They offer us something great we can use. Right, maybe AngularJS is not as important for Google like SAPUI5 is for us. But we have something with which we can build our day-to-day business apps with and we do so.
    3. We missed great opportunity in not using SAPUI5 for this and that
    Let's think about how projects are going: you want something, you look at the costs, you choose most efficient option. Yes this could mean reusing an existing native application which was written long ago and you pimped it up. Or you had outsourced it to a company which wrote a similar app. Or you bought the source code. Or you have some cheap internal staff which could do it (students, trainee), or you could outsource it cheaply. Or all you have is people with experience in this and that technology. Or it must look in a very very specific way (because marketing says so) and you go native. Or it maybe should even differentiate itself and should look NOT like a Fiori app. And no - I don't think - this is my employees view - we are not for example an event app producer. We normally build business applications. And I don't think that we can write an app from scratch "just" for an event in a certain technology. Yes it would be nice if this and that would use SAPUI5, I think if it would be possible in terms of time and costs and UI wishes and hundreds of other factors we would do it with SAPUI5.
    Working at the partner SAP showed me over 50 Fiori apps, now hundreds of Fiori apps are released. SAP now showed that SAPUI5 is going big with S/4HANA. We have seen the Simple Finance solution. I was walking around at the CeBIT this year and I was impressed myself which cool apps and screens have been shown with SAPUI5. I used the SAPUI5 app on a Samsung Smart Watch myself. The SAP Web IDE itself is built with SAPUI5 in its heart. I don't need any other "proves" that SAPUI5 is great. I have seen great use cases for it, but I also know myself when I would use other stuff.
    4. My conclusion
    There is never every anything which can cover all different use cases. One-size-fits-all clothes also does not fit for everyone even if it says so. If someone creates something great don't judge it by the UI technology. Judge it by the experience and the value it creates. There are reasons why this and that was chosen. Use what fits your needs best with your requirements. Make the end user happy!

    Hey Denise,
    Thanks for pulling this discussion into SCN. Makes it much easier to discuss compared to Twitter. But I also have to apologize in the beginning that my answer now exceeds 140 characters by 50 times.
    Let me share my thoughts and personal opinion as well. I will try to look at it from a strategic point of view, as you – as the technical UI5 expert - have already covered the technical perspective.
    SAP recommends using SAPUI5 where it fits to customers’ requirements
    Let me begin with a clear statement from my perspective: It makes no sense that SAP takes customer decisions.
    Of course, customers expect SAP to help them with their strategies and decisions and of course we are helping. But at the end, the decisions have to be taken by the customer who needs to take the specific conditions of the company into account. The most important condition in the context of UX is the end user. But we shouldn't forget the business strategy as the most important influence factor. I’m not saying that technical decisions are completely unimportant, but I would like to point out that other things are more important for a company.
    As a result, it wouldn't make a lot of sense if SAP would just want every customer to use SAPUI5. To me, customers need recommendations leading to solutions that satisfy their needs and requirements.
    There is not that one UI technology that serves all needs
    This headline might be a challenging statement and I can already imagine reactions to it. But in fact I can confirm this sentence easily. You always have to combine different technologies. Some of them are from SAP others not. The selection and combination of these technologies is different from customer to customer because the requirements are different. There are still reasons to use Web Dynpro ABAP and I’m still recommending SAP NetWeaver Business Client, POWL (Power Lists), WDA Chips, FPM based on the given environment of the customer. And obviously there are also reasons for UI5.
    SAP already proves the usage of SAPUI5
    In general, I see two different use cases here: Developing custom applications vs. adopting applications from SAP.
    In the one case, customers want recommendations on development environments and UI technologies that consider their development requirements and existing conditions (e.g. existing skills, given implementations). SAPUI5 is a great UI technology and there are some special aspects that make the decision obviously easy. If I want to create simple business applications that can be connected with my SAP system easily, especially in combination under responsive conditions on multiple devices and targeted for casual and/or occasional users UI5 might be the right choice for many.  Exactly this pattern is what many customers are searching for these days. So, the recommendation for UI5 comes quite often.
    Whether or not SAP proves the usage of SAPUI5 in their own world is to me more connected to the use case where customers want to adopt SAP applications. And in deed, SAP is using SAPUI5. There are hundreds of SAP Fiori applications that have been built with SAPUI5 and there have been a lot of other applications developed using SAPUI5, too. And again, there is a huge need for applications for casual and/or occasional users, so that’s a big reason for SAP to create such applications.
    Websites vs. Business Applications
    This discussion was triggered by some statements in twitter, that SAP sites such as sap.com, SAP UX Explorer or the latest mobile conference app are not developed using UI5. Actually I see these to be websites but not business applications. I have never told a customer to build a website in UI5 and I would continue to do so.
    Maybe we need to discuss the difference between a website and a business application. I guess it is not easy to find a common understanding here, as the borderlines between several worlds have disappeared in the last years.
    Some years ago it was more or less easy to differ between:
    Native desktop applications running on a specific desktop OS
    Native mobile applications running on a specific mobile OS
    Browser-based applications running in specific browsers
    Websites, basically running on many browsers
    In the first three categories we saw business applications. 1 and 2 were selected especially when specific functions of the device and OS where needed to be accessed (for example the camera of the mobile device, the fast rendering capability of the desktop). 3 was also used for business applications but in most cases on desktop browsers.
    Today, one can develop browser-based applications that look like native applications and even can access the devices like native applications. Responsive design breaks the borderlines even more. Now, browser-based content can be rendered perfectly on a desktop browser as well as on a mobile phone and a user might even not be able to judge whether it was originally intended to be developed for the one or the other.
    So maybe there is no big difference anymore between websites and browser-based applications. But there is still a difference between browser-based applications and browser-based business applications, where additional requirements such as integration into business systems are drivers. Here I see SAPUI5 as a very cool UI technology.
    That’s just my 2 (personal) cents,

  • While in zh|ja locale, zh|ja fonts are used even for Latin... why?

    One thing that has always bothered me is that my system uses funny fonts when it is running in a non-English locale, and I think I finally found the culprit.
    When I check for font matching in English everything seems normal:
    $ fc-match -s "sans"
    DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
    DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold"
    DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique"
    DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold Oblique"
    iYaHei.ttf: "iYaHei" "Regular"
    malgun.ttf: "Malgun Gothic" "Regular"
    kartika.ttf: "Kartika" "Regular"
    arialuni.ttf: "Arial Unicode MS" "Normal"
    But, if I were to do it in Chinese or Japanese:
    $ fc-match -s "sans:lang=zh|ja"
    iYaHei.ttf: "iYaHei" "Regular"
    DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
    DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold"
    DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique"
    DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold Oblique"
    malgun.ttf: "Malgun Gothic" "Regular"
    kartika.ttf: "Kartika" "Regular"
    arialuni.ttf: "Arial Unicode MS" "Normal"
    DejaVuSans goes /after/ iYaHei. This is a problem, as iYaHei's Latin glyphs look horrible; its CJK glyphs, while not the best, are at least extensive, which is why I use it. For monospace it is even more of a problem, because then Arial MS Unicode, which isn't even a monospace font gets priority over DejaVu Sans Mono in zh|ja environments.
    This is my current fonts.conf:
    <fontconfig>
    <alias>
    <family>Monospace</family>
    <prefer>
    <family>DejaVu Sans Mono</family>
    <family>Arial Unicode MS</family>
    </prefer>

    <alias>

    <prefer>

    <family>MingLiU_HKSCS-ExtB</family>
    <family>MS Song</family>
    <family>UnBatang</family>
    <family>RaghuMalayalam</family>

    </prefer>
    </alias>
    <dir>/home/sokuban/.fontmatrix</dir>
    <dir>/home/sokuban/.Fontmatrix/Activated</dir>
    </fontconfig>
    This is probably happening because while I'm in a zh|ja locale, the system is looking for the highest font on my priority list that says it is a zh|ja font and then uses it—even to cover Latin etc glyphs that fonts higher in my priority list can cover; I'm guessing this is because it is assuming that those fonts aren't suitable for use in a zh|ja environment.
    So the simplest way to solve the problem that everyone would immediately think of is to say that DejaVu can do zh|ja. I (presume) it wouldn't cause any problems even though they can't, because then they will simply borrow from real zh|ja fonts and will now at least be used in a zh|ja locale. Actually, I would want this behaviour no matter what way I decide to solve the problem.
    The other—and better—solution to the problem would be to specifically set a different priority list to be used for different languages. That way when the system looks for "sans:lang=zh_TW", it'll get DejaVu at the top of the list to handle Latin, and then a nice traditional Chinese font. Likewise if the system looked for "sans:lang=ja", it'll get DejaVu with a nice Japanese font. Before I didn't think this was possible, but now that I see how this font matching is working, it would be weird if it wasn't possible.
    Right now I have these nice Chinese/Japanese fonts installed on my system, but I don't always get to use them (mostly while browsing, if the html is nice enough). I made my system default iYaHei (and the firefly font for serif) because iYaHei covers almost all of CJK and is readable. If I were to put one of the nice Chinese or Japanese fonts as my system default, I'd end up having some glyphs being borrowed from another font, and it looks really ugly when this happens. Monolinguals don't have this problem, because they can just set their system font to their language, and then be done with it, as they'll rarely need to display any glyphs unsupported.
    If anyone can help me, especially with getting a different priority list for different languages, it would be appreciated.

    Hmm, that seems to work fine for one language, but I put 4 languages in there and only the first one I put works properly:

    I had to put zh_TW at the very top, otherwise matching for zh_TW would pull up meiryo first. There is still one little problem in that matching for ko will pull up MS Mincho before Batang, but whatever, I don't really care that much. Meiryo and Malgun Gothic also still go before DejaVu Sans for some reason, but this again doesn't really matter, and might actually be a good thing.
    So far setting it like this seems to work to some degree. More of Niconico Douga uses Meiryo now (the search bar and stuff still uses iYaHei, but I don't think much can be done about that), if I run a program with LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 and it has Japanese support it'll use Meiryo too. But this doesn't work with Chinese. (I guess because I had country codes in my Chinese matching rules) Oh well, this is still a step up, and Trad Chinese with a Simp Chinese font isn't as bad as Japanese with a Simp Chinese font; I've gotten used to seeing it everywhere. (Heck, the book I'm using to study Chinese now is a translation from a book made to study Simplified - and although it is a traditional book, it still uses the same simplified font.)
    EDIT: Actually, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the program having Japanese support or not. Some programs will use Meiryo, others will completely ignore the fontconfig settings (and use iYaHei). Sonata for example, even though it had a working Japanese localization, used iYaHei, while thunar and mousepad used Meiryo.
    I used to have this bug that pretty much made working in CJK locales impossible, it took a really long time to open up terminals because of the messed up font settings. This seems to be fixed in a Japanese locale, but not a Taiwanese. Again, I guess this has to do with the country code above. (If you use a country code do you need to put a different syntax? Because other than the fc-match -s "sans:lang=zh_TW" results, the Chinese lines don't seem to have any effect—though I guess if that command shows it, they must be affected?)
    Also, I'm not sure if I've been blind and not noticed it until now, but after applying these Changes /all/ kana are using Meiryo. (Unless specified otherwise) This is both a good thing and a bad thing—no, I think it is a bad thing. Because Japanese text uses kana and kanji (CJK unified block). So now when I have a Japanese filename in thunar, the kana shows up using a proper Japanese font, but the Chinese Characters in the name show up using a Chinese font. While this is kind of okay of the fonts look similar, it isn't a good solution because not all fonts are designed to work well with each other, and my main goal in this quest is to avoid having to "borrow" from another font when the default font can't display a glyph properly. (Meiryo and iYaHei kiiinda look similar, so it isn't that bad, but if one day I decided to set my default gtk font to serif for some reason then I'll have problems for sure.) If somehow the system was able to tell if the text was Japanese or Chinese and use the appropriate font, that would be good, but I am aware that that sort of magic is impossible.
    I want the computer to be able to use the correct font when some program specifies the text is in that language (perhaps by the locale, or perhaps by the other magic method niconico uses), but I want the english locale to use iYaHei for everything just to be safe because it works.
    I have tried doing something like:
    <match>
    <test name="lang" compare="contains">
    <string>en</string>
    </test>
    <test name="family">
    <string>sans-serif</string>
    </test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="same">
    <string>DejaVu Sans</string>
    <string>iYaHei</string>
    <string>Malgun Gothic</string>
    <string>Kartika</string>
    <string>Arial Unicode MS</string>
    </edit>
    </match>
    Hoping that that would allow iYaHei to be used as the main fallback while using an English locale, but that doesn't happen; it still uses Meiryo for Kana, but it uses WenQuanYi Zen Hei for Chinese, which looks even worse than Meiryo and iYaHei.
    So now I'm debating whether to use the new configurations or the old configurations. The new configurations fix a few things in Japanese locales, but cause a possibly grave problem in non-Japanese locales. I'm sure it has a few other effects too, but I didn't notice them yet.
    What exactly is this fontconfig format supposed to do? Because it clearly isn't "setting a priority list for fonts to be used in a certain language". It seems more like "setting a priority list for fonts that are labelled as a certain language". Or maybe it just does some random stuff to the fonts described. I can't tell.
    The core of the problem seems to be in the fonts themselves. Somehow, these fonts are claiming to cover "Chinese, Japanese, Korean" etc etc and while they probably do that, most can only cover 1 language in an acceptable way. Where do the fonts store this information? Is there a way to edit this?

  • Can XI /PI be configured with a web proxy for outbound communication.

    We have a business to business scenario. There is a firewall and web dispatcher for inbound from the partner.

  • Amarok 2 - proxy for last.fm / shoutcast

    Hi,
    I've got the following problem. I'm trying to make amarok2 use proxy for last.fm radio. I've already tried setting proxy in KDE systemsettings, but that doesn't seem to apply for amarok (at least for last.fm or shoutcasts). Is there any way to force amarok to use proxy?
