Anybody know a good site to learn JSP from scratch??
I tried the pages at Sun but couldn't find anything clear

Creating a JSF Web application from scratch.

hi,
i have created a JSF web application, but not from scratch i had to use a jsf example included in the final specification of the JSF download, as a template to create my own application, by deleting and editing the example files with my own.
i tried to do it from scratch including all the settings, parameters and files that should be in place, but i sill get an error when starting the app in tomcat.
Unfortunately i dont have the error listing anymore since i have got around the problem through alternate path. however i do remember that it came with cannot find FacesServlet, or something to do with the FacesServlet.
if anyone could shed some light on this it would be really great because it so frustrating.
many thanks.
dharam

cannot find FacesServlet, or something to do with the FacesServlet.It might appear not because you have a wrong project structure, but because you point to the entry jsp file directly without using the servlet mapping in your URL. Check this first.

Sun Java Enterprise Portal Desktop creation from scratch

Please see below our request.
1.     What I need?
We are expert in J2EE and relative technologies. We just want a support which helps them to move in a right direction to adopt and excel with SUN JES. Basically, this document expects a guidance to show right direction in creating SUN JES Desktop. Below are the bullet points which try to explain the actual expectation from the response documentation:
     Sun JES Desktop: We require hands on documentation which would assist us in creating a desktop from scratch. This documentation should unveil step by step demonstration of Sun portal desktop creation. The document can assume that all the components with SUN JES are already been installed with default sample desktops.
     Replica of existing Directory server to new Directory server: We would like to understand the procedure involve in creating a replica of existing directory server. We have already exported LDIF file from the existing directory server. But when we are importing it to the directory server installed at our local machine, it is prompting us with an error message that schema for the importing content not available. This suggests that we have not created schema at our local machine. Therefore, we would require an assistance to export all the content from an existing directory server to new directory server along with the schema.
     Change Deployment: It should explain all the required steps involved for re-deployment of the content available with the portal. In other words, if there is a change made in the content of the portal (any JSP, JAR or configurable file) then what are the steps required to re-deploy and reflect the changes on portal?
2.     Current Status
2.1.     SUN JES Installation and Configuration
We are through with initial setup of SUN JES. We have installed entire required component on our local machine (Windows XP) with default configuration for sample desktop which includes:
     Sun Application server
     Sun Directory server
     Sun Access Manager
     Sun Portal server (Instance created in web server)
     Sun Instant messaging
     Sun Web server
The setup also includes configuration of sample portal (myPortal) which has some desktops already created like enterprise, developer and community desktop.
2.2.     Component understanding
We have gone through almost all the documents available under SUN documents. But we felt those were rather high level understanding documents. We have basic understanding of the all the components which come up with SUN JES.
3.     Desktop Example
As we are very new to the SUN JES, we expect something which is very basic to understand. In other words, when we start with any Java or programming language, we use to have Hello World short of program. Similarly, we expect a very simple desktop which just assist in learning steps involved in creation of desktop from scratch. Here, we can assume that all the required components are already being installed and running. Let us take an example:
Suppose we have 4-5 users who belong to different groups. These groups have some defined policies (Something that we use to create with access manager). On the basis of the groups, they are allowed to access the sites available with the portal.
User - A, B, C, D
Group I, II
User-Group Mapping
A, D -> I
B, C -> II
Desktop contents:
Page displaying URL for google.com and myhcl.in
Group I On click of google.com, it should display the page in channel. Whereas, on the click of myhcl.in, it should display a message, quoting You are not authorized to view this page.
Group II - On click of myhcl.in, it should display the page in channel. Whereas, on the click of google.com, it should display a message, quoting You are not authorized to view this page.
Again, in all we just require a very basic desktop, which helps us in understanding the procedure involve in creating a SUN portal desktop. We think that this exercise would cover and help us in understanding all the nitty-gritty involved for learning SUN JES. Please feel free to add anything which you think will help us in learning SUN portal.
Please let me know if anything unclear.

Hello,
I am not sure how much you are comfortable with profile creation for the different users.
while user provisioning, if you are aware of kind of user and can assign the profile then this could be easily done.
what if you don't show the link for unauthorised user instead of showing message that "You are not authorised....."
create two different profile with two different channel having links and assign appropriate profile to the users.

Passing vectors into JSP from Servlet and passing data back to Servlet

I have been building an MVC application.
It has a controller which instantiates classes and evokes methods to
populate vectors. These vectors are then passed into a JSP. This part of the application works fine.
What I am having trouble with is a new JSP I have designed; this will
display the data that is actioned by the FORM action. This is actioned
based on the Search criteria entered by the user. Based on this a further vector is populated and brought back to the JSP as a vector
and this is rendered via the TABLE tag. Again this works fine.
Against each of the rows displayed, I have a print checkbox which can be checked by the user. On checking the records they want to print, they should then hint a Print button which should go back to the Servlet and print the data. THIS IS WHERE I HAVE THE PROBLEM. On going
back to the servlet the checkbox values are not displayed, rather
the values that initially populate the JSP. How do I get these new values back into the vector and hence accessible from the Servlet.
Any help with be very much appreciated.
Chris

Thanks for this.
Just to clarify I am not using Struts.
What I am having difficulties with is the fact that:
I can't get the checked values back to the Servlet - they keep the values they have in the bean - so as part of instantiating the bean class I set the value of the item to 'off'. The user will then check
the checkbox which should presumbably set the value to 'on'. This isn't happening because the setter method of the bean is not evoked again
because I don't come into this JSP again - the Servlet has finished here
and now needs to print the records. It can't do this because as
far as it is concerned nothing has changed since it last passed through
the vector to the JSP.
Even when I do the following:
Enumeration paramNames = request.getParameterNames();
String param = null;
while (paramNames.hasMoreElements())
param=(String)paramNames.nextElement();
System.out.println("parameter " + param + " is " +
request.getParameter(param));
what comes back is the valus of 'off' as opposed to 'on'.
The other thing is that 'request.getParameterNames()' only works
with the first record in the vector, i.e. it doesn't fetch any other
records that are rendered in the <TABLE> tag.
In desperation is there anybody out there who can help me.
Thanks
Chris
I am going to assume you are using a MVC framework
like Struts or very similar (I am assuming that from
the language you are using).
When the servlet passes the vector back to the JSP
page and you render the HTML that is passed back the
client your Vector is gone. The Vector is not
available at the HTML level that is being viewed at
the browser.
When the user selects the checkboxes and submits the
page (by clicking the print button) the controller
servlet (called ActionServlet in Struts, yours maybe
called something else) forwards the request to the
appropriate JavaBean and Servlet to process the
request. Either the JavaBean has to recreate the
Vector (not recommended) or the processing Servlet can
(better). You can do this by recreating the Vector
from scratch for the HttpRequest parameters or, at the
time of the initial request, saving Vector to a
session and then updating with the data you get back
from the client (again from the HttpRequest
parameters).
Either way you have to work with
HttpRequest.getParameter().

My mid-2009 MacBook Pro's hard drive is near death. I want to install a new SSD and work from scratch. Please help.

Recently, my mid-2009 MacBook Pro has been crashing when I close the screen ("it's having a problem recognizing when the screen is closed/open and deciding what to do, error overload etc."). It wasn't an SMC issue so I took it to an Apple Store, ran some tests, and decided my hard-drive is failing.
Not wanting to spend an insane amount of money on some "official apple hard-drive," I want to install a new 256GB SSD instead. Hoping to squeeze as much life out of this computer as possible (in January I upgraded from 4 GB RAM to 8 GB), I would like to try and start from scratch, i.e. back-up important folders, music, photos etc. and only take that to the new hard-drive. If someone could explain all the steps I need to take to safely complete this task (or point me in the direction of a guide) I'd appreciate it.
Potentially Important info:
     Model:                mid-2009 13'' MacBook Pro
     Processor:          2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
     Memory:             4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
     Software:            OS X 10.8.4
Some additional questions I have...
     Should I be concerned with making a fully bootable back-up (not sure what that is called) as well? If so, what program should I use to create it?
     How much more life should I try and push out of this computer? I'm an engineering student and really only use it for web-surfing, music, and
          word-processing. The batter was replaced in March, the RAM was upgraded to 8 GB in January. When the battery was swapped, the trackpad went           nuts so that's new too. Only other issues are a slightly loose audio jack and the left side of the screen being slightly wobbly (hinge is worn I'm told).

Well there is no "official Apple HD / SSD" in any regard, no worries there.
If as you say youre only using same for surfing and word processing, why the need for a SSD? You would not notice any speed diff. in use on either of those,....in boot times yes, but in word or surfing, not.
You can push it likely a few more years, for mere surfing and word processing,...many many years.   Up TO the point that any major fixes become unrealistic relative to getting a new(ER) machine.
Concerned with a boot clone? yes and no. Its an ideal immediate recovery, since you cannot boot from Time Machine, ....in case of HD crash, recovery takes seconds from boot, or 20 mins or so from removing old and installing a clone. All the prosumers and pros have at least one updated clone of their prime machines.
You can do a "fresh install" if you choose, however if your current drive is FINE, why not merely clone it and save yourself some headache?...., but that is your prerogative of course.    Ideally 2 drives, one to backup your data (you need that regardless of installing a new drive for sake of a backup/archive,...ideally 2 actually, not merely one).
You could clone internal to NEW SSD/HD , ...then offload unnecessary files to an external to free up space and clutter and run off the clone, and this would only take a couple hours......the clone itself takes approx. 40+ mins.
CLONE Apps :
Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.

Query based taxonomy from scratch gives NoSuchMethodError...

I'm trying to create a query based taxonomy following the instuctions specified in the help docs: KM Platform -> Admin Guide -> Content Mgmt -> Taxonomies and Classification -> Creating a QBT -> from scratch. I created an index on a newly created (hence empty) folder in the 'documents' repository. So, essentially, the data source points to that folder. Also, I selected 'TREX Classification' on the 'Service' drop-down while creating the index. I left the crwler profile as blank. Then I went on to create a new 'Query Based Taxonomy'. I was able to create it alright, but as soon as I click on it to add folder and the such, I get this error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError

Any help in solving this is highly apprecaited.
We run EP6 SP2.
I did NOT create a 'crawler profile' for this set up.
thanks,
Biju.

Hi Biju,
re. your NW'04 SP stack 4 migration intention:
NW'04 is still in ramp-up (SP stack 4 is the current shipment bundle of it) so at the current point in time, only participating ramp-up customers can use it.
A migration from EP6.0 SP2 to NW'04 will be possible (but not during the ramp-up phase).
From a Knowledge Management & Collaboration perspective, we will port most of the NW'04 SP stack 4 functions to EP6.0 SP2 as well. These functions will be shipped as EP6.0 SP2 Patch 5 (planned shipment date beginning of Q4 / 2004) so for mid-term, you can also plan to stay on EP6.0 SP2 if you have no other pressing reasons for going to NW'04 (e.g. enhanced Web AS functions).
This feature porting from NW -> EP6.0 SP2 is an 'only-once' action, however, and NetWeaver will be the release for new features in the future.
Regards,
Joerg

Hi Friends... I'm trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message "The operation could not be completed because the item "bands" is in use. I'd like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

Hi Friends...
I’m trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message “The operation could not be completed because the item “bands” is in use. I’d like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

Sorry, I am very confused. I asked the following question....
Is this the only backup file on your Mac, or do you have other backup files and data on the Time Capsule disk?
The answer that you gave was....
This is the only one
Now you are saying that....
But I have lots of other files on Time Capsule! The back up file is only one of them.
Can you clarify, please?

So I created a button on my home page, and it is linked to this XML file. Everything works great except it only shows the item that I coded in...I want it to show ALL items.
Can I do this without having to input each item individually?
Is this how I should do it anyways with a button linking to this xml file?
I really want to have like 3-5 of the posts to auto update on my home page but I dont know how to embed the RSS into my HTML home page file.
Also, the way I have it coded, will it automatically update the new posts?
or do I have to wait for the new post and input the item into the xml file?
I am very new to the RSS feed so please help.
Thanks,
cp

Scratch 22: Creating XML Publisher report from scratch in eBS

Problem:
How to build a XML Publisher (XMLP) report in eBS from scratch. Thus NOT adapting or converting an existing report.
Context:
I have an eBS R12 Vision instance up and running where I want to learn building XMLP reports.
This is what all tutorials I can find tell me to do:
Most reports apparently consist of a layout template e.g. TEST.rtf and a data template e.g. TEST.xml. Now in order to generate a new report layout I am supposed to take existing output in XML format and (using ‘Load Data’ function in Template Builder plugin in Word) specify in my layout template where and how I want the actual data to pop up. So far so good.
But now I want to build the data template from scratch and use it combined with a layout template. So I build the data template but can’t use that for building the layout template. For that I need output, for which I need a layout template.....
Sounds like Catch 22 to me. How do I break this?
1. Can I generate an XML-output file from the XML Data Template alone?
2. Can I build my (RTF) layout template directly based upon the XML Data Template?
3. Or have I completely lost the plot?
Oh yes, dunno the first thing about Java and do not have My Oracle Support..

1. Can I generate an XML-output file from the XML Data Template alone?
create data definition with your data template-> create concurrent -> output as xml -> run -> view output and your xml
I thought the XDODTEXE engine would pick up the (Layout) Template through concurrent program definition CPD short name which in turn points to the Data Definition (and thus Data Template). So does your answer mean I can call straight from CPD to Data Definition? I tried registering my Data Template in the Template Tab but it will not take XML as a type.2. Can I build my (RTF) layout template directly based upon the XML Data Template?
if you want to use xml publisher desktop then you need xml (with data, not definition)
So that's not an option I understand. Weird cuz I'd expect this to be technically easier.btw you can create your layout (rtf) without xml (data) and without data template (xml with select statement)
create filed and past tag definition
Yes but in that case I'd have an empty report. How would that help me?bouble click on filed:
"Text Form Field Options" -> "Add Help Text ..." -> "Status Bar" (tab) -> "Type your own:"
if you use bi publisher desktop plugin
bouble click on filed:
"BI Publisher Properties" -> "Advanced" -> "Code"
or switch to Word Properties
"BI Publisher Properties" -> "Word Properties" and use above path
3. Or have I completely lost the plot?
may be ;)

Airport Utility for my Airport Extreme needs to be changed to a different computer, because the current computer is down permanently.. How do I do this? Do I have to reset the Airport Extreme and start from scratch?

The computer (Win XP) on which the Airport Utility has been set up for the past few years is no longer accessible, so I need to set it up on a different computer. Can I do that with my exisitng wireless network, or will I have to set up a new network from scratch, once I have installed Airport Utility on the new machine?

You can install AirPort Utility on either a Mac or PC, but there would be no reason to make any changes to your existing configuration on the AirPort Extreme unless you need to do so.

File Not found error when calling Form Post Method to a JSP from JSP Portlet

I have built a set of JSP forms using post method to call other JSPs. Normally, the code looks like
<form name="MyForm" action="MyJsp.jsp" method="post">
I migrated the calling form containing this code to a portlet, but not the MyJsp.jsp. When I submit the form, I get a file not found in Jserv.log
Exception:javax.servlet.ServletException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\servlet\RegisterCompany.jsp (The system cannot find the file specified)
[14/06/2001 13:59:59:679 PDT] JspServlet: unable to dispatch to requested page: Exception:javax.servlet.ServletException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: d:\oracle\isuites\apache\apache\MyJsp.jsp (The system cannot find the file specified)
I notice that launching the calling jsp from a portlet, my opriginal context that uses ../Apache/Apache/htdocs is not being searched for the JSp. Why is this? Moreover, I try to set up an Alias in httpd.conf file to the this director and use it with the jsp in the action tag, but still get an error that my jsp servlets/Myjsp can't be found. Why is it insiting on looking at servlets context instead of htdocs.
I have none of these issues outside of Portal30 using IAS.
regard

Initially, I couldn't do this unless I moved tghe jsp's up to the root directory of IAS, i.e ../Apache/Apache. Nomrally, htdocs is my doc directory for IAS. I could not do http:\\myUrl\htdocs\myJsp. If I tgried this, I got an error in Apache error logg that said can't find file ..\htdocs\htdocs\MyJsp.jsp.
If I just tried the the URL http:\\myUrl\MyJsp.jsp with Jsp file in htdocs, I would get an error in the Jserve log that file d:\oracle\isuites\apache\apache\MyJsp.jsp could not be found. Once I moved the file MyJsp to Apache/Apache directory, it could be found using http:\\myUrl\MyJsp.jsp. Later, I delted these files and kept the ones in htdocs and they continued to work.
I'm confused why launching pages through portal isn't consistant with Apache Standards. Where is the documentation that tells me how to configure context and aliases for pages launched from portal pages?

David,
Passing information using Portal is different than just using Apache/Jserv. Does it work in portal if you use the absolute path?
<form name="MyForm" action="http://host.domain/MyJSP.jsp" method="post">
Portal will not be on the same relative path as your Apache, so you may need to adjust your action somehow.
Thanks,

C#: Building a SOFTWARE SOLUTION from scratch to finish

Hello good people of MSDN. I have a VERY SIMPLE REQUEST... (Here goes)
I'm trying to build an Application (from scratch, custom specs) that allows the user to manage, organize and keep track of books that are available in a library. This system is to be made use of in environments such as personal library, public library, any
situation that requires/involves the constant movement of BOOKS.
Now, I have presented a solution to the client which works OKAY but there has been a SUDDEN CHANGE of heart, now the client wants the solution to be implemented quite differently. The solution that I BUILT is basically an ASP.NET C# Application that runs LOCALLY
so it opens up in the browser (IIS installed and all that) for the user to make use of the Application. Now when I want to have the entire Application to FUNCTION on another system I simply copy the Database, the Application folder (that has all the files
in it) place it in the IIS Directory... ... (So as not to waste your PRECIOUS TIME). To access the Application we simply open up the BROWSER enter localhost/the Application's URL...
The client, first of all does NOT want the BROWSER in the mix of things (ANYMORE !!!); secondly, does not want to have to go through all of this process of COPYING FILES INTO LOCATIONS, IIS etc etc in order to get the solution to WORK/OPERATE on another/several
other computers. The client wants to be able to have an EXECUTABLE INSTALLATION file that when clicked installs a SOFTWARE APPLICATION that opens up in its own WINDOW ENVIRONMENT without the help/assistance of the BROWSER !
This is my PREDICAMENT there's NO TIME... I need to AT LEAST present a working prototype in less than 24hrs!
So my questions are:
1.) Is there anyway for me to convert my ASP.NET C# Web Application into an installable client software without losing any of the components that make it work?
2.) If I have to build the ENTIRE Application into a WinForms PROJECT (I'm using VS 2010) can I STILL MAKE USE of the DATABASE I used for the ASP.NET C# Application?
3.) I don't want to have to DUMP my SQL SERVER DATABASE (as it is) to start creating a DB using something else like MS Access. Do I have a choice?
I have included with this post a Notepad doc that details the sketch of what I am HOPING to ACHIEVE. I would Appreciate it if anyone can (KINDLY) take it up and create according to the SPECIFICATIONS included in the doc. I have tried to be very DETAILED and
DESCRIPTIVE in the doc to make it easy for the DEVELOPER to FOLLOW THROUGH. Can it be done?
(If ANYONE can take it up and provide the solution it would be a good thing because it would ALWAYS be available to other DEVELOPERS who can read through the CODE and become better C# PROGRAMMERS and better at using Visual Studio. As this is a VERY REAL
LIFE SCENARIO coders can LEARN from the SITUATION).
At the end of the whole CODING PROCESS I intend to BUILD the Source to become a SINGLE EXECUTABLE FILE that will INSTALL the Application on the clients system. If anyone can PROFFER (and MAYBE RENDER) a SOLUTION that's ACCURATE, SPEEDY, RELIABLE to me, I would
be grateful!
The Software is to be used in a school. Students are only going to REQUEST for books, RETURN the books that they collected. They are NOT BUYING books!
Working/Functional Prototype
(The PROTOTYPE I hope to present REALLY SOON should be CAPABLE of the FOLLOWING)
1. Navigate/Move through the different Forms/GUI Screens when the appropriate buttons are clicked
2. Interact with the DB (to some extent) and carry out (for now)TRANSACTIONS like adding books, viewing list of books, delete book, Register Student (other DB operations can be included much later)
3. When the Application is LAUNCHED a Splash Screen is displayed introducing the Application (while the Application is loading), then when it's done Loading, the Application opens to present the Start Screen
4. An EXECUTABLE INSTALLATION FILE that can be used to conveniently INSTALL the Application on multiple systems... Just in-case it is to be installed on a computer system that's not Windows OS, I'd like for it to carter to dependencies appropriately.
PLEASE ANYONE that chooses to ASSIST (based on the SPECIFICATIONS) should KINDLY include the DETAILS of how the result was ACHIEVED so at least I can read through and understand the Application and conveniently make suitable/any necessary modifications (should
the CLIENT require that I do so). eg Step by step instructions on how to get the whole SOURCE CODE into INSTALLATION FILE, Setting up the Splash Screen, how the DB is made to connect to the front end GUI (eg ODBC, OLE DB that type of stuff)... etc etc
I'm trying to keep the prototype VERY SIMPLE so I can ACHIEVE something TANGIBLE in this short space of time then LATER any SOPHISTICATION can be included.
PS: I have done MY VERY BEST to plan out the Application Logic. So it should be easy to just READ over the Notepad docs I'm including here... As a pointer (should YOU decide to ASSIST) it would be FASTER to START with the WinForms, then MOVE to CREATING
the DB, afterwards LINK THEM...
Thank YOU ALL.

BELOW IS WINFORMS PLAN: FRONT END
There are just gonna be 5 GUI Components (FOR NOW). The ENTIRE APPLICATION WINDOWS should be in the range 700px by 700px (width by height).
Forms/GUI Instances
1. Start/Welcome Screen
2. List of books
3. Administration
4. Relase Notes
5. Splash screen
Start/Welcome Screen
When the Software Application is launched and the Software is done loading this is the FIRST screen that the user sees. This Screen presents the users with options to carry out certain actions. Also it presents some brief/summary information to the user in
a presentable manner.
Options include: Administration, View list of books, Relase Notes
Brief/Summary of information include: Total no of books in store, Total no of new books added
List of books Screen
When the user clicks on this action link from any where in the Software Application this page comes up. It displays a complete list of the books that are available in the store and also relevant info about the books. It reads DIRECTLY from the Books table inside
the Database and presents the info in a tabular format. It also provides the user with certain options to carry out some actions.
Options include: Request book (button beside every book item)
Administration Screen
The Administration Screen is segmented into several Areas that allow the operator to carry out individual/independent tasks. On this Screen the operator of the system has options to carry out many vital tasks as regards the Application. Rather than having to
present many different Screens, all the control/Administrative tasks of this Aplication are included here on this ONE Screen.
Options/Segments include: Add book(s), Delete book(s), View list of books, View books requests, View books returned, View all Students, Request for book(s), Register Student, Return books
(All of these Options can be done/carried out on this one screen without having to bring many different screens to do the different tasks)
>>Add book(s) Area
This area FEEDS info DIRECTLY INTO the Books DB. To accept Data input into the Application this has following text boxes: Book Title, Author, Edition, ISBN, Category Name
>>Delete book(s) Area
Presents the options for deleting a book. It also relates DIRECTLY with the Books table in the DB. It presents the list of books as they are available in the Books DB and places a DELETE action button for EVERY book so that when this button is clicked it removes
the book from the Books DB.
>>View list of books
This will simply bring up the list of books Screen since already we have a screen for this.
>>View books requests
This reads DIRECTLY from the UsersRequest table and just presents the info to the user in a tabular form.
>>View books returned
This reads DIRECTLY from the BooksReturned table and just presents the info to the user in a tabular form.
>>View all Students
Lists out all the students that are registered in the Application System. It READS DIRECTLY from the Students table. This area is used by the Admin/Operator of the Application to view a List of all the Students that have had transactions with the Application.
>>Request for book(s) Area
This area relates DIRECTLY with the UsersRequest table in the DB. It FEEDS in Data into the UsersRequest table. This area allows the admin to collect info of the student that's requesting for the book. It provides texboxes such as: First Name, Middle Name,
Surname, RegNo, BookTitle
>>Register Student Area
This area relates DIRECTLY with the Students table in the DB. It FEEDS in Data into the Students table. This are allows the admin to input info of students that are new to the system.
In other for the Admin to keep track of NEW students who are coming in to request for books this area is very important. It allows the Admin to register a new student so that the student can now request for books.
There are text input fields on this Screen that allow the Admin to collect certain infomation about the student and feed it into the Students table of the DB. Textboxes inculde: First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, RegNo
>>Return books Area
This area relates DIRECTLY with the BooksReturned table. It FEEDS Data into the BooksReturned table. Textboxes include: Book Title, Author, ISBN, First Name of student, Last Name of student
Release Notes Screen
This Screen has three tabs that contain their own individual MESSAGES. The tabs are: Version, Known Issues
Version
Refers to the version of the Application. This tab provides info about the version of the Application
Known Issues
Known problems with the Software Application
Splash Screen
A very simple/ moderate graphic (nothing fancy)to introduce the Application

Hello,
Welcome to MSDN forum.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses
the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
Because your issue is about ASP.NET web application development, I suggest that you can consult your issue on ASP.NET forum:
http://forums.asp.net/
for better solution and support.
Best regards,
We are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this interview project would be greatly appreciated if you have time. Thanks for helping make community forums a great place.

I-tunes is downloading my purchase from scratch every time I open it up...

Why is i-tunes downloading my purchase from scratch every time I open it up? This means I can't watch the episode as it freezes after 10 minutes and says it has 12 hours to go until download is complete...
I have also found that the words get out of sync and I have to pause it for it to catch up. This happened on my old computer but I now have a new one and it is still doing it...

Launch System Preferences and click on the “General” icon
At the bottom of the “Number of recent items” list, uncheck the checkbox next to “Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps”

What is the impact of destroying and re-creating from scratch the Open Directory Master?

In order to try and solve some nasty issues hat I have since upgrading to OS X Server 3,0 I am considering completely destroying my OD Master and re-creating the users and groups from scratch. Before doing so (of course I will have multiple backups) I would like to understand:
1.   When re-creating the users and groups is it sufficient to use the same ‘Unix’ groupid and userid numbers or do I also need to use the original GeneratedUIDs (is that even possible)? Are there any other aspects of the users/groups that I need to be sure to preserve?
2.   Will there be any impact to services and their data from doing this? Specifically, I have users with data in Mail, Calendar, Contacts and the WiKi. Will they still be able to access their data after the OD destroy/re-create or is that data somehow tied to more than just the username (e.g. does it use the user/group UUID or indeed any other UUID from OD)?
3.   Will there be any impact to OS X clients bound to the OD? Should I unbind them before destroying and re-bind them afterwards? Will there be any negative impact on the network users who log in via these systems (they all have ‘mobile’ accounts which do *not* sync to the server - all their data is local to the client)?
Thanks in advance for any advice especially from anyone who has gone through this process.
Chris

Hi Rob,
I have solevd my issue and I did not need to destroy / re-create the Open Directory. See my post here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5785838 for all the gory details. The long and the short of it was that my problems all came from a point in the past when I changed the hostname of my server after I had created the Open Directory master. Seems like that is a very bad idea! Based on what I found it seems liek any small flaw in DNS forward and reverse name resolution can also cause similar issues. I don't knwo if either of thsoe may apply to your situation?
As part of troubleshooting my issue I actually created a 'replica' of my server setup on another machine includingthe OD and associated users and groups. What I found was that many services (certainly mail, calendar and contacts) depend completely on the OD users and groups UUIDS. So if you wish to preserve user's data across an OD destroy and re-create it is vital that you carefully note for each group its Unix GID and its OD UUID and for each user their Unix uid, primary group id and UUID. When you are re-creating your OD master, as you create each group, use Directory editor to change its UUID to the original value. Similarly for Users. If you don't then users will no longer have access to any existign Mail, Contacts or Calendar data afterwards!
HTH,
Chris

How To "Start From Scratch" and Build a Clean iTunes Library on a Portable USB External Drive?

A while ago I posted about my confused (and confusing) mess of an iTunes:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16183210#16183210
While dozens looked I guess eveyone agreed with me "what a mess" and moved on.
So ... someone at the Apple Store suggested that what I should do is start from scratch. But I'm not sure if I understand all the steps. He said I should:
* create a folder of all my songs and just the song files not all the other iTunes stuff -- copy all the mp3 and m4a files that I have in Music > iTunes > iTunes Music > Music to a temp folder let's call it "all my music"
* launch iTunes and tell it to move to / always look at / whatever the terms my new portable external USB drive
* click on file / add to library and tell iTunes I want to add that "all my music" folder to iTunes
At this point I don't care if we lose playlists, artwork, play counts and all that stuff.
Does this approach make sense?
Is there another way?
So how do I tell iTunes to only look to the external? How do I get rid of the old stuff I have on the internal that is offering duplicates and phantom entries? Do I need to delete iTunes and then download a new copy? Should I delete the iTunes foilder? ...?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Many thanks!

the simplest and working way.
go to iTunes -> Preferences -> Advanced
On there change the iTunes Media Folder location to your external hard drive
Check that the rest of the preference pane looks similar to the following picture.
After doing so, on menu bar go to File -> Library -> Organize Library
This will force iTunes to copy all songs and playlist's to the new place and to build up a new database for the Library.
Empty or corrupted files will left behind on the old location.
After checking that all is on place and working at the new location, you may delete all files at the former location.
Done
