Max-DB 7.5 Error, Can't make it Offline

Hello all,
I am trying to upgrade my MaxDb 7.5 to 7.6 patch level 18. Before doing this as per the SAP notes I need to make the Max-DB offline using the dbmcli > db_offline command. But when I issue this command using sqd<SID> user then it given me error which is as follows:
"Error! Connection failed to node (local) for database ACP: ERR_USRFAIL: user authorization failed" I tried to issue this command using <SID>adm and even root, but still I get the same error.
Kindly help me to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Premkishan Chourasia

Hi,
you have to use a DB user to connect with using DMBCLI. For admin purposes, this is the DBM user, normally called 'control'. You should be able to connect to your db with the following syntax:
dbmcli -n <host> -d <DB name> -u <DBM-user>,<password>
Example:
dbmcli -d SDB -u control,control
(in the above example, I did not need to specify a hostname, because the db instance is on the local machine)
The above dbmcli-command will put you in a DBMCLI-session, you can then enter other commands, including your db_offline.
Ofcourse you may also directly use:
dbmcli -d SDB -u control,control db_offline.
Please let me know if this worked out for you.
Regards,
Roland

  • Error "Can't make every file of ... into type alias list" - please help!

    Hi
    I am trying to adapt a script that uses Max (an audio conversion tool) to convert files in a folder to another format. The original script which I found on a forum asked the user to choose the folder with the files in which need to be converted, but I want to specify the folder in the script so that it can be automated. So I changed the line:
    set sourceFolder to choose folder
    to
    set sourceFolder to "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:"
    However I then get the error (this is the only line in the script I changed and the original script works fine):
    error "Can’t make every file of "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:" whose name extension = "m4a" into type alias list." number -1700 from every file of "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:" whose name extension = "m4a" to «class alst»
    Could someone let me know why I am getting this error and how I can sort it. The full script is below.
    Thanks
    Nick
    tell application "Max" to activate
    tell application "Finder"
    set sourceFolder to "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:"
    set theFiles to (every file of sourceFolder) as alias list
    repeat with aFile in theFiles
    tell application "Max"
    convert aFile
    end tell
    delay 1
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Max"
    click button "Convert" of tool bar of window "File Conversion"
    set encoderOpen to true
    repeat while encoderOpen is true
    try
    window "Encoder"
    on error
    set encoderOpen to false

    set sourceFolder to "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:"
    This saves a string (Macin...) under the variable sourceFolder. You then try and use sourceFolder as an alias which doesn't work. To fix the situation try saving sourceFolder as an actual alias in itself. For example...
    set sourceFolder to folder "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:"
    or perhaps
    set sourceFolder to "Macintosh HD:Users:nick:Desktop:test:" as alias
    Either of those should correct your problem.
    When using "(choose folder)" you get an alias returned which is why the original script worked fine.

  • "iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type referen

    Hello everyone. i am completely new to MAC's and very new to scripting. Thanks in advance for any help.
    I am tying to run an Apple Script that is called Scheduled Delivery.
    I'm running 10.4.10 and have the most recent version of the script.
    Basically what happens is I type up and email, add in the email address and save it to my drafts folder. The Scheduled Deliver script, when run, finds all the emails in my drafts folder and uses iCal to schedule a time to mail them (which is a specific time I enter)
    Here is my process I go through-
    I run the apple script by double clicking on the Scheduled deliver Icon, which was in my appications/MailScript folder. It brings up a new window with all my saved drafts. I select the draft I want to schedule a specific time to deliver. This is great.
    When I click on the lower right button "Update Schedule" I get an error message...
    "iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type reference. (-1700)"
    I cannot figure this out. I've tried testing it anyway. I can close the Scheduled Deliver window but the "Done" button is always grey out. It seems to place an event in iCal but no message ever gets sent.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Anyone? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Applescript "Finder got an error: Can't make document file"

    I can get the file contents if I use choose file but if I do it this way, I get the error:

  • Please help explain the error "Can't make «script» into type Unicode text"

    i am writing an applescript for my eyetv installation that handles recorded shows. i have posted in their forums, without reply, so thought maybe i could get some understanding of the technicalities of the fault to try to fix myself!!
    i have a sub-routine:
    to deleteeyetvrecording(theRecordingID)
    set theScriptLibrary to load script file "Macintosh HD:Library:Scripts:ScriptLibraryv1.scpt"
    tell application "EyeTV"
    theScriptLibrary's log_event("RecordingDone", "Deleting EyeTV recording: " & (get title of theRecordingID), 2)
    try
    delete theRecordingID
    on error theErrorMessage number theErrorNumber from theErrorObject
    theScriptLibrary's log_event("RecordingDone", "deleteeyetvrecording: " & theErrorNumber & ": " & theErrorMessage & ". Object: " & theErrorObject, 2)
    end try
    end tell
    end deleteeyetvrecording
    even though the line above the error works fine and retrieves the Title property of the eyetv recording, the delete command on the next line outputs to the log file:
    Sunday, October 26, 2008 09:50:51 [ 1 ] Error deleting file (4/4): -1700: Can’t make «script» into type Unicode text.
    what does this error mean? what syntax changes are needed?
    note this sub-routine worked in v1 of my script - i only copy and pasted it to the v2 script! go figure!
    regards
    jingo_man

    Hello
    Without knowing what theRecordingID is, how deleteeyetvrecording() is called and what the actual code of log_event() is, I can only guess.
    The said error log is most likely not written by the code in the try block you provided, which should throw error by itself when theErrorObject cannot be coerced to string. I'd guess you have an enclosing try block where you call deleteeyetvrecording() and the said error log comes from there.
    As far as I can tell, you should not assume that you can always coerce theErroObject (that is obtained from 'from' parameter of 'on error' statement) to text.
    Too little information to go any further.

  • Calendar Server Error - Can't make it go away!

    Hi everyone,
    I am getting an error when my Calendar opens, and it repeats every few seconds and I can't make it go away and can't use my calendar. Here is a screen shot of the error. What can I do to make this go away?
    Thank you,
    Kelly

    I tried to delete all of my calendars, even on google, I don't even want them to sync. I can't find sync settings anywhere. This is the new message I am getting. I tried to go to that address and it won't let me. So I go to that calendar on gmail and delete everything I can. Is there a way I can uninstall and reinstall the calendar app?

  • Time Machine error - can't make first backup

    I can't get Time Machine to make the first back up: I tried wirelessly and it reported a "Time Machine Error" after about 112GB of 270GB transfer, so I tried again via ethernet cable and again it failed with the same error message at about the same point.
    So what do I do now? There is no way that I can see to know what is causing the error - there is no error number nor detail in the error message: +Time Machine Error. Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume.+
    Any help gratefully received.

    How can you search the system log to figure out what is causing the failure?
    Hi joemac
    First open the Utilities folder and then open the Console. You'll see various logs - I took the system log, so that I could see what had happened across the whole system. There's a mass of info, going back in time, so it's very very helpful if you know approximately what time the event took place. I did, because the backup failed before my eyes at 10.02 PM.
    I saw this message - I've edited out my computer's name and highlighted the location and the file name that caused the failure:
    8/28/08 10:02:59 PM /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd[26663] Error: (-36) copying /Users/~/Library/Preferences/IsmTempFile/ns14426860.tmp to /Volumes/Backup of ~ iMac/Backups.backupdb/~ iMac/2008-08-28-164831.inProgress/.../Macintosh HD/Users/~/Library/Preferences/IsmTempFile
    I googled the file name to see what it was - it turns out to be something generated by my scanner and not critical according to posters on various forums.
    I then went to the location (User/~/Library/Preferences), and deleted the file.
    Then I tried another initial backup and it worked.
    Hope this helps.

  • AppleScript error on Tiger only: "can't make file into type alias"

    Hi,
    I'm successfully using this smart TextWrangler applescript from this webpage for opening files on the same folder as the current document:
    http://blog.ampli.fi/textwrangler-open-file-from-directory-of-current-file/
    It works fine on Mountain Lion.
    However, when I try it on Tiger 10.4.11, this error dialog appears: "TextWrangler got an error: Can't make [file] into type alias".
    The script basically gets the path of the current document in TextWrangler and posts a file chooser on such path.
    I guess these are the lines that Tiger doesn't like:
      set current_path to POSIX path of current_file
      set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
    open new_file
    After googling for the error "can't make [] into type alias", I tried to change such lines to:
      set current_path to (POSIX path of (current_file as alias))
      set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
    open new_file
    But, however, the same error remains.
    Do you have any idea on how could this work?
    Thanks!

    wow, 10.4...
    try this:
    set current_path to current_file
    set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
    open new_file
    I'm not certain when the standard applescript dialogs were updated to accept posix paths, but it may have been 10.5.

    I have one folder on an XSAN that one machine can not make changes to. Whenever I try to duplicate or copy a file in this folder I get 'The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50).'
    The permissions are fine, and I have trashed the finder plist and reset the NVRAM.
    Anyone have a answer?
    Thanks

    Tips I received so far (thanks to A-Mac via Twitter http://www.a-mac.nl and Remco Kalf http://www.remcokalf.nl/)
    - make sure you have at least 10% of your harddisk in free space (I had only 5%).
    - do a PRAM-reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379)
    - perform a hardware test (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509)
    - make a complete backup (with for example Carbone Clone Copier, see http://www.bombich.com/)
    - after complete backup: use diskwarrior (boot from Diskwarrior DVD, first perform diagnostics, then perform "Rebuild" which rebuilds your file directory).
    So far I only cleared up some space on my HD, and already the problem occurs less.
    Still, I will go through the other tips too.
    (will post progress)

    Appreciate your support and if possible , how to do this?

    If you want to work with Mac OS X, you need one computer per simultaneous user.
    What you are describing, " Multiple simultaneous logins to a single computer" is not avialable on a regular Mac of any description, unless you decide to use Unix tools instead of Mac OS X.
    Server will happily store files for many, many users and provide them to multiple (up to hundreds) of computers at "near hard Drive" speeds over Gigabit Ethernet. It can make the File Sharing part easy.

  • Cannot copy necessary linked file ERROR.  HELP ME!! I can't make a package

    Cannot copy necessary linked file ERROR.  HELP ME!! I can't make a package

    What have you tried? Often, this happens when a linked file is open...perhaps at the hands of another user across a network where you can't see. If that's not the case, and you're sure you don't have it open, it's still possible your system just thinks it's open. Reboot the computer and try again.

  • I am trying to copy a document and I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area."

    I am trying to make duplicate documents with minor adjustments to each and when I try to copy the artwork from one document and paste it into the new document I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area." Both documents are exactly the same size, res, color format etc. I even tried to drag and drop and get the same error message. Anyone know what I can do to resolve this issue?

    Try scaling the view size down to 6% or so and then do a Select All. See if there are objects off the artboard which may be causing this error. Most often you will see this if there were guides dragged from a ruler which were selected by dragging the white arrow and then deleted. This leaves the anchor points at the edge of the work area.

  • I recently installed CS4, and I can not make a connection to my website.  Message an FTP error occurred and cannot make a connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.

    I recently installed CS4, and I can not make a connection to my website.  Message an FTP error occurred and cannot make a connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.

    Open up your site definition (double-click on the site name in the File panel or choose Site > Manage Sites > Edit) and go to the Remote Info category. There, click Use Firewall (if it isn't already selected) - press Test to try the default firewall settings. If that doesn't work, click Firewall Settings. You'll see two relevant settings about 2/3 down - Firewall host and Firewall port. If Firewall port is 21, there probably is something blocking the port.
    On Windows XP, you may have the Windows Firewall installed and blocking. Here's how you get to it:
    To open Windows Firewall
    1.
    Click Start and then click Control Panel.
    2.
    In the control panel, click Windows Security Center.
    3.
    Click Windows Firewall.
    Once you have that open, you'll need to set Dreamweaver as an exception to blocking:
    On the Exceptions tab, click Add                     Program.
    In the list of programs, click the name of the program (Dreamweaver) that you                     want to add, and then click OK. If the name of your program is                     not in the list of programs, click Browse to locate the Dreamweaver.exe in the Program Files folder and then click OK.
    Hope this helps - Joe
