JRE what's its purpose? It only broke things.

Windows 98 4.10.1998
All Updates
IE 6.0.2600
PII 450, 192MBs Ram
Java (TM)2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition 1.4.0
Default Virtual Machine Version 1.4.0-b92
Java (TM) Plug-in 1.4.0
Excuse my arrogance but I got very annoyed with this thing.
The other day I downloaded the Forte thing to have a squiz
at Java. Now, it silently installed the Java Webstart as well
as the JRE.
The JRE broke things necessitating its prompt execution. As an
example I first noticed it when I went to this site http://www2b.abc.net.au/science/k2/stn/ The applet on the top frame
on the right was no longer functional as well as giving me an
irritating coffee cup icon on my sys-tray. An icon that cannot be
killed nor does it serve any useful purpose when viewing a page..
Another example was on a couple of applets I have, the applets work
without problem until the JRE pocked its head. All I ended up with
was a blank section where the applet is meant to be and more silly
useless icons on the sys-tray that I have never needed in the past..
All I have ever needed in the past was msjavx86. The JRE gets installed without my permission as does Webstart in the package, and
neither have any intelligent, easily accessible documentation as to
what they are or actually do that necessitates their existence.
What's its purpose?

u shud get version 1.4.0_01
1.4.0 is for pc's with lower config like 486 and 386

    I want to know more about the Sanapshot tool. What is its purpose? how do I use it? I have searched Firefox Help, but did not find a clear answer.

    That is not part of Firefox. It is either an add-on for Firefox which you installed, or it is a separate program you have.
    Also, is '''Sanapshot tool''' the correct name? Or did you mean '''''Snapshot'''''?

    It allows you to use the 3G/4G networks for accessing the internet (e.g. emails, browsing etc) - which might be useful if you don't have access to wifi. It can't be used for 'normal' phone calls.

    To add to what others have said, the three prong plug allows the charger to be grounded, the two prong plug that can plug into the three prong cord assembly does not. There are situations (such as this) in which Apple advises grounding the power adapter to solve problems.

  • SAP MMC Console (ABAP Trial) -- what's its purpose

    Hi all
    I've successfully installed SP12 Abap trial on a Win XP Virtual machine.
    It starts sucessfully using the  standard Windows Menu ==NSP==> Start Application Server.
    If I use the MMC it takes much longer and there is a lot more disk activity (I'm running this stuff in a 640MB Virtual Machine --I really should give it more but I only have a 1GB laptop).
    Can anyone tell me what the MMC actually does and whether there is any point in even installing it.
    (Note this is for the ABAP edition only). I think you need the MMC to start the JAVA edition but there is no way I could even THINK of running that on a 640MB virtual machine.
    The Abap edition actually performs OK once it's started and initial programs have been compiled.
    Cheers
    Jimbo

    Hi Aakash,
    Firstly, I don't think we need to install MMC separately, this should get installed automatically after the installation
    of trial version.
    I would suggest downgrading the version of java with j2sdk1.4.2_04 to 08 anything between these two.
    And try again.
    And is the version that you have downloaded compatible with Windows 7.
    That coulbe a problem.
    Chk this thread also, SAP on Windows 7 Ultimate

  • What is the purpose of the chain (lock symbol) between a solid color layer and its vector mask?

    What is the purpose of the chain (lock symbol) between a solid color layer and its vector mask in the layer panel when creating shape layers with a shape tool? I'm just curious when locking or unlocking the solid color layer and its vector mask can make a difference.

    I don't understand what you said and your shape layer looks different then mine using CS5.
    When the chain is deselected, I can't do anything with the move tool on the shape layer. This is the only difference I can find. Making the solid color uniform or not doesn't change anything.
    Your example shows that you moved the position of the solid color, how did you do that? I can create a solid color layer and change its uniform look by applying an effect like gradient but I can't move the solid color itself around. How is this possible?

    Could this be because of one of these bugs:

    Actually the flags from the later bug are not set in our JVM but the crash happened between half an hour or several hours (I expect it was depending on the system load).

    Hi Les ,
    With SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP Stack 6 a new dialog is available for publishing queries, Web applications and reports.
    You can call this dialog from the corresponding menu bar in the BEx Query Designer, BEx Web Application Designer and BEx Report Designer. The queries, Web applications and reports are created as iViews and stored in the selected directory of the Portal Content Directory (PCD).In Bex there are three optins by which u can publish and one amongst them is roles according to which u can publish the result set of the query to roles which have authorized users assigned to them . So u can be more specific that each user can see data relevant to his cost center or his region.
    The My Portfolio, CM Repository View and Collaboration Room views that you called from the dialog in the Query Designer and Web Application Designer in SAP BW 3.5 are no longer available in the same form. Now you can use the BEX Broadcaster to store the queries and Web applications as links in your personal portfolio, a folder or collaboration room.

  • What is the purpose of Multiproviders???

    Hi Everyone,
    I am currently trying to create a multiprovider.
    I have read the SAP documentation but I still do not understand in what circumstances should I create a multiprovider for reporting.
    Would appreciate if anyone can provide details on what is the purpose of multiproviders?
    Assuming I have the following scenario, should I create a multiprovider for reporting?
    Infocube A:-
    Characteristic
    - Employee Number
    - Cal Month/Year
    - Shift Type
    Key Figure
    - Hours
    Infocube B:-
    Characteristic
    - Employee Number
    - Cal Month/Year
    Key Figure
    - Amount
    I need to report on both the key figures for each employee and what is the shift type of the employee for the specific cal month/year. The employee number, cal month/year and shift type will be used as selection parameters.
    I am thinking of creating a multiprovider for this reporting need but I think there will be some problems.
    For example:
    1) If I input the employee number and shift type as selection parameters, the amount column will be empty when the report is displayed.
    2) If I input on the employee nunmber, then I'll be able to see both the key figures when the report is displayed but the data are on different lines which does not make sense to users.
    Emp ID   Shift Type    Cal Mth/Yr   Hours     Amount
    200001   Shift         05.2006       10 
    200001   Not assigned  05.2006                 1000
    Only if I don't show the shift type column, then the record will be display in a single line.
    How can I rectify such a problem.
    Please advise.
    Thanks.
    Shunhui.

    Hi,
    A MultiProvider is a type of InfoProvider that combines data from a number of InfoProviders and makes it available for reporting purposes. The MultiProvider does not itself contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the InfoProviders on which it is based. These InfoProviders are connected to one another by a union operation.
    InfoProviders and MultiProviders are the objects or views that are relevant for reporting.
    Multiprovider - used when we want to report on chracteristics and keyfigures that are in different data targets.

  • What is the purpose of having 'oracle' user with umask 022?

    Hello,
    What is the purpose with having the 'oracle' profile with a umask of 022? Isn't that a security risk having files created by 'oracle' with 755 permission? I mean why let others have the capability to read and execute on files that 'oracle' writes. Thank you.
    Paul

    Hi;
    You can set it as you wish. But from note:
    The umask utility sets the file mode creation mask of the current shell execution environment to the value specified by the mask operand. This mask affects the initial value of the file permission bits of subsequently created files. If umask is called in a subshell or separate utility execution environment, such as one of the following:
    +(umask 002)+
    nohup umask ...
    find . -exec umask ...
    it does not affect the file mode creation mask of the caller's environment. For this reason, the /usr/bin/umask utility cannot be used to change the umask in an ongoing session. Its usefulness is limited to checking the caller's umask. To change the umask of an ongoing session you must use one of the shell builtins.
    If the mask operand is not specified, the umask utility writes the value of the invoking process's file mode creation mask to standard output.
    The most common umask values are 022, 027, and 077.  A umask value of 022 lets  the owner both read and write all newly created files, but everybody else can
    only read them:
    Oracle recommended(also its a prereq for installation) to set umask 022 due to do upper explanation.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/816-5165/umask-1/index.html
    Regard
    Helios
    Source:
    +0666 Default file creation mode+
    +022 resultant mode+
    +0644 resultant mode+
    On many UNIX systems, the default umask is 022.  This is inherited from the  init process, as all processes are descendants of init.

  • What is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC

    CAN ANY EXPLAIN ME
    1.what is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC?
    2. AND THE CONTENTS IN ITS TABS.
    KINDLY LET ME KNOW.IT IS URGENT
    <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
    Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 28, 2008 11:42 AM

    Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table maintenance generator.
    In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group, Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name), Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button, a table maintenance generator will be created.
    To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.
    We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table entries by choosing Maintain.
    Why we have to go for Table maintenance generator, when we can edit the table by SE16 or SE11, utilities->create entries?
    In the production system, end-users will not be having access to transaction codes like SE11 and SE16. Developers will not be having access to many transaction codes including the above two.
    To view the contents of the database table, we will use SE16n in Production system. Please find out the difference between SE16 and SE16n.All these authorizations will be maintained by BASIS team, by creating access profiles.
    So in order to edit or create the contents of a database table, we should go for table maintenance generator. In real time, authorizations will be maintained in production system. (even in development and Test systems to some extent).
    There is an audit like Sarbanes-Oxley Act for American clients, where every thing will be audited by government agency. To know more about SOX, use the links on the right hand side of this page.
    The second reason is, we can edit or create multiple entries at a time, using table maintenance generator.
    Apart from that we have options like 'Enter conditions' in table maintenance screen SM30. Please try to find out the use of those, by creating an example.Table Maintenance generator: Difference between one step and two steps.
    While creating table maintenance generator, we find below options:
    1. When we choose one step, we have to give the screen number in Overview Screen field.
    2. When we choose two step, we have to give both overview screen number and single screen number.
    You can give any number for screen. Don’t give 1000 screen number. As this number is reserved for selection screen.
    When we choose two step, two screens will be created for table maintenance. For single step only one screen will be created.
    When we choose two step, table maintenance will work as follows:
    Go to SM30, give the table name for which you have created table maintenance-
    Overview screen will be displayed. To create entries, when you click on ‘new entries’.
    Another screen will be displayed, where you give input and save.
    You can enter one record at a time.
    We use single step generally, as it is user friendly.
    To completely understand the difference and above points please do exercise by creating table maintenance generator in both ways (using single step and two step).

  • What's the purpose of copying the projects?

    I use Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 Installation for Oracle for a guide to install the peoplesoft. When I did the step of Updating Database to Latest PeopleTools Release of Chapter 7B, I found that it told me to copy the project to the database but no to tell me to build it. Without building the project, the objects of the project can not be built. Should I need to build the project? What’s the purpose of copying the projects?

    I'm afraid, you were starting to speak about Peopletools installation tasks, which come with its own particularities, now you're speaking about maintenance packs which come with other particularities.
    Honestly, I didn't read the MP6ML installation guide, and if you need to build the project or not, I do not know, and if you need, I don't know the options neither.
    But I'm sure, because I did it several times by the past for other MPs, everything was well explained in the doc and/or template, including the exact options you need to set before building the project.
    For MP application, PSCA should be used as most as possible, if not possible, then manuals steps are described in the templates. If not, then open a case to Peoplesoft support.
    ...the second one just told me to copy the projects named HC9_MP6_ML_1_CP and HC9_MP6_ML_2_CP from file to my target database. So should I build the projects? And which options should I choose when I build the projects?If the template describe only a manual copy project (without build), then copy and do not build the project.
