Migration Tool wipes out navigation menu

Hi,
I created a navigation menu in 12.1. But, later on, for some reason, I had to migrate just 1 folder from 11.5 to 12.1. And when I did that, I was surprised to see that the Navigation Menu was all wiped out, some 2 hours worth of work. Also, the migration tool never migrated over the Navigation Menu from 11.5, even on the first attempt.
Regards,
Chanti.

Migration is moving structure and/or data from one type of database to another (e.g. SQL Server to Oracle).
What you want is the Database Diff tool, which can generate you the diferential scripts...

Using Sun's Migration Tool

I have been handed a project where the primary requirement is to
convert a Websphere/DB2 application to either Sun App server(or
JBoss)/Apache/M$ SQL Server or some other DB like mySQL.
The
first item I undertook was to get the code (jar files, ear files, etc)
and the DDL files for the database. Next, I downloaded and setup
Eclipse for J2EE development, installed Sun's App Server, downloaded
the Sun Migration Tool and followed the instructions to enable it to
work within the App Server environment. As a test, I randomly grabbed a
JAR file from the pile of code to see if it would run through the
Migration tool. Of course, it threw an exception... but, I'm at a loss
as to what I need to do to move forward from this point. If anyone has
any idea of how to do a migration from Websphere to Sun App Server or
JBoss, I sure would appreciate some pointers... The exception:
Code:

** bump ** still having this issue... and am pulling hairs out (losing more than gaining these days...) trying to figure out why the migration tool starts out fine then craps.
I decided to uninstall everything and create a whole new install of the latest j2EE JDK (since my original install had stuff inside of c:\Program Files\Java - and I wanted to eliminate tricky issues with having a space in the path). So, after uninstall and deleting all Java, I went through the registry on my dev machine and did a search for "c:\Program Files\Java" and replaced them all with "c:\java" - the new location for java stuff to be installed - then reinstalled everything anew.
then I tried migrating an ear that was a web app...
C:\>%asmt_home%\bin\asmigrate -c -S ws50 -T glassfish -t c:\temp\gfout c:\temp\cbc_20080717\source\cbci_app_v2\cbci_app.ear

C:\>    Looks slightly different, but in general, I am still getting the same old stuff as in the previous posting... Maybe the strange syntax in the first line of the exception is the clue "javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessorType.value()Ljavax/xml/bind/annotation/AccessType;" but I can't find this in my code and am wondering if anyone has ever seen anything like this before? Also, I'm noting that all references in the exception path to any sun.iasmt.* classes are "Unknown Source"... perhaps another clue to something not defined or configured somewhere; but what and where? I just don't know where to look...
BTW - the code I am working on converting is from a Websphere 5.1 runtime environment and I have no access to the server that the files were exported from.

Out of memory error in adobe migration tool

Hello,
While migrating data from version cue server to DAM server adobe migration tool is showing out of memory error.
Is there any way to increase memory size for migration tool.
Thanks,

Hi,
I had this issue as well. Does anyone know why this happens

HT4889 I've already set up my new MacBook Pro, I want to migrate all my stuff from my old MacBook OS X 10.6.4. Will it wipe out the settings in the new computer?

I've already set up my new MacBook Pro, I want to migrate all my stuff from my old MacBook OS X 10.6.4. Will the migration wipe out the settings in the new computer?

Of course not. Migration Assistant will create a new user with the transferred files and settings, so your MacBook Pro won't get messed > http://pondini.org/OSX/MigrateLion.html
You may want to merge both users > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472

Windows migration tool using external USB drive

Hi everyone,
My wife is using Windows Vista (BootCamp) on her MacBook now, but she finally decided to use Mac OS (it'll be Mavericks).
I believe that PC and Mac have to be connected via network (or Ethernet cable) to use Apple Windows migration tool, correct?
How can I migrate it in my case? Can I use MS (Windows) backup tool? Does Mac migration tool recognize this Windows backup? I prefer to use Apple migration tool, but any other good suggestions?
Please advise.
Thank you!

You are welcome.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information (may be called something else in 10.5).
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
If your computer isn’t compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion.
Computer Compatibility - Lion                       Lion
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.
Application Compatibility
Applications Compatibility (2)
You will need to get Snow Leopard.         Snow Leopard Purchase
Once you have Snow Leopard, boot off the Snow Leopard DVD, run Disk Utility Repair Disk and Repair Permissions, Then erase the entire hard drive (top one in Disk Utility) formatting it as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Install Snow Leopard and update using Software Update to 10.6.8. The combo update will shorten the process.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
Then go to the App Store and download Mavericks. I would quit the installer and make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again. You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program.
Bootable USB Flash Drive – Diskmaker X
That should get you to Mavericks.
If you want/need more RAM the 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service.

Error while installing Migration Tool kit for SAP BPC7.0

Hi all,
We are implementing SAP Business Planning and Consolidation Migration Process to BPC 7.0.
We are trying to installin Migration Tool Kit. In this kit we are having two set up files - one for BPCMigrationClient and another for BPCMigrationServer.
When i am trying to install the BPCMigrationServer set up file it diaplays a screen which says - Enter the service type accounts.- it has the following items - 1. System Admin ID, 2. password, 3. Admin ID, 4. Admin Password, 5. User ID, 6. User Password.
1. System Admin ID already has the id ( through which i have logged on to the system). This option is non editable.
2. password: gives option to type in the password.
3, 4, 5, 6 options are disabled and are blank. we are not able to edit them or write anything in them.
After entering the password when clicked on next , it gives us message saying Invalid Admin ID (3). But the problem here is that the 3,4,5 and 6 options are disabled. We cannot write anything in them. We are not able to install the migration tool kit because of this.
Can anyone help us out in solving this issue.
Thanks,
Madhav

CAn you precise also what Migration tool are you using?
Migration from 5.1 to SAP BPC 7.0 NW?
In that case when you are speaking about the installation about what part are you speaking?
I think actually you are speaking about the migration tool from 4.2 to 7.0 Microsoft version .
In that case you can install the mIgration tool just with SAP BPC sys admin users and you have to input the password for that user. Sys admin user for BPC is usually the user used for installation of SAP BPC server.
Any way I suggest to follow the Migration tool training document and there you will find all the information necessary.

Show 2 level hierarchy in Managed Navigation menu(Current Navigation) in SharePoint 2013

We have enabled Managed Navigation in SharePoint 2013 Publishing Site. Now when a user browses a page we want to show the current page siblings are its parent links in the Managed Navigation. Right now its showing only current page siblings in managed navigation.
Is there any way to show current page parent links in Managed Navigation menu?
For example I have a term set enabled for managed navigation with following terms:
Level1
    Level 1.1
        Level 1.1.1
        Level 1.1.2
        Level 1.1.3
Level 2
    Level 2.1
        Level 2.1.1
Level 3
    Level 3.1
Level 4
    Level 4.1
Now if a user is on page Level1.1.1 then Current Navigation should show following hierarchy in using Managed Navigation :
Level 1.1
    Level 1.1.1 -> This node will be shown as selected
    Level 1.1.2
    Level 1.1.3
Level 2.1
Level 3.1
Level 4.1
Is the above behaviour possible by doing any out of box configuration or using SharePoint designer?
Thanks,
Anna Jhaveri

Ha i was given the same task by my client but they wanted it to be done in client side rather than creating new user control and inheriting from actual control.
i used Jquery and css to achieve staticlevel 3+ left navigation in sharepoint 2013. first of all let me explain the structure i had created.
HR department
-->Level 1
---->Level 1.1
------>Level 1.1.1
------>Level 1.1.2
-->Level 1.2
(same as above structure)
all i did was setting up the staticlevel ="2" and dynamiclevel="3"
so this would make left navigation with two level and remaining of its sub sites as flyouts
Part-1:
so i used Js to convert all the flyout(dynamic class ) to static $(function(){
$("ul.dynamic").removeClass('dynamic').addClass('static');$(".dynamic").removeClass('dynamic').addClass('static'); $(".static").removeClass('dynamic-children'); $("#zz12_RootAspMenu > li:nth-child(n) > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children');
$("leftnavigation ID"> li:nth-child(n) > ul > li.static > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children'); $("leftnavigation ID" > li:nth-child(n) > ul > li.static > ul > li:nth-child(n) > ul").removeClass('dynamic-children')
$(".ms-navedit-flyoutArrow").removeClass('dynamic-children').removeClass('ms-navedit-flyoutArrow');
by using this script all the dynamic classes get convert to static. after getting rid of classes call "dynamic" and "dynamic-children"
second part :
now we have convert all the dynamic level to static (just look wise) but functionally its behaviors is like flyout menu items.so the following js adds the static behavior classes so it just functions like static menu
$(function()
var path = window.location.pathname;
path = path.replace(/\/$/, "");
path = decodeURIComponent(path)
$("left nav ID" > li > ul > li.static.selected > ul > li > a").each(function () {
var href = $(this).attr('href');
if (path.substring(0, href.length) === href)
$(this).closest('li').addClass('selected');
$(this).removeClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected').addClass('selected').addClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected');
else
$(this).closest('li').removeClass('selected');
$(this).removeClass('selected').removeClass('ms-core-listMenu-selected');
How above code works:
it takes the url path of current page and compare it with the all the anchor elements href ,so when it finds the match it would go insert the static level class like "selected" in the <li> and "ms-core-listMenu-selected" in the <a>
tag so they function like static.
so i have done it for 4 levels so i had to put one more function as shown above to target and read <a> tag href values for 4th level and compare it with current page url.
i didn't explain in detail in here, i'll be writing up again on this issue on my blog with screen captures soon.
Till then you can leave comments and questions.
Disadvantage :this doest work if you have anything listed other then Subsites(pages,list,libraries) in left navigation.

Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome

Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome. Works in IE. This is my first time trying to post a question - so please be kind. I am also not good with code and am finding css a real challenge after learning to design based on tables. I'm using CS5.
The "test" page with the slide show is: http://www.reardanwa.com/index-slides.html   The same page without the slide show is http://www.reardanwa.com/
I realize the images are not ideally sized - I'll fix those once I get the pages to function. Maybe I need a different slide show? I would prefer a widget that I can modify to required size & postition. Again - I'm not good at building with code from scratch.
The problem is the naviagation links that are directly next to the slide show do not work in Firefox of Chrome. They do work in IE.
I've read about using jQuery.noConflict(); code but can't figure out the correct way to use it in my case or whether that's even part of the solution. I know my code is not well organized as I have cobbled together from various sources in an attempt to format the page the way the client wants it. Also, FYI, I will eventually try to make the page work in Surreal CMS.
I've spent sevaral days over the last several weeks trying to solve sth slide show/navigation conflict - so any specific light you can shed will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

How do I fix my floating drop down navigational menu?

Hello, I am currently reworking my website to make it responsive, but I have hit a roadblock with my navigation menu:
My goal for the menu is to have a floating navigational menu in which as the user hovers over the link the image changes. One of the tabs is intended to be a submenu that drops down horizontally. I also am trying to get the menu centered on the page using fluid positioning.
As of now, I have a functional drop down menu with the rollover effects. It wasn't until I began work on floating the menu that I ran into a problem. At first, the menu was not scaling proportioally with the rest of the page, but upon looking around, I found: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browse r-support.
Using the code on the link, I recoding the menu. In the end, the drop down menu is causing the problem. When I have the drop down menu still included in the code, the menu is broken up in three lines. The submenu is grouped with its parent, but they are grouped boxy (at least in the browsers I have checked) and only two are visible.
I decided to humor myself and removed the code for the drop down menu to find that the menu works perfectly--it does everything I was aiming for for the time being--rollover, center, floating.
Is there something that I am overlooking that will fix the drop down menu?
I was thinking that I would have to center the styles for the sub menu, but I didn't see any results.
What am I missing that I am not seeing?
The links to the two pages:
http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithDropDown.html
http://ryanolsenstudios.com/WithoutDropDown.html
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated, I have been looking around trying to figure this out, but to no avail. Thank you.

I don't advise you use images for navigation as they are NOT scalable to any good effect.
Below is a simplified version of your image buttons with dropdowns in place.
The jQuery used to create the rollover swaps is going to get very long and unmanagable (it's just as an example) I suspect there will be more streamlined solutions using jQuery if you Google, like just adding _static.jpg and_over.jpg to the end of the image src, which will keep the code to a minimum of lines.

Tip: How to link to a non-iWeb page in the main navigation menu.

I've figured out an easy way to add a link to the main navigation menu which links to a URL of your choosing. For example, I have an older .Mac site using the now archaic HomePage. Instead of rebuilding all of my old pages in iWeb, I thought it would be nice to add a link to the old site from the top main navigation of the iWeb pages. Sounds easy, right? Apparently Apple has other ideas as iWeb doesn't allow you to do this.
Here's a work-a-round:
Step 1.) Open iWeb and add a new page to your iWeb site. Pick any template, it doesn't matter which one.
Step 2.) Change the page name to whatever you want using the page inspector. Whatever you choose as a name here will be reflected in the main navigation menu. For example, I named my page "Photo Archives".
Step 3.) You don't need to edit this new page at all. In fact, we're going to erase all of the content in it later. Now publish your site.
Step 4.) If you're using .Mac, mount your iDisk to your desktop. Then navigate through the folders to: Web -> Sites -> iWeb -> <Your Site Name>. If you're hosting your site somewhere else, navigate to your root directory.
Step 5.) You should now be looking at all of the files which make up your iWeb site. Open the dummy page we created in Step 2 in a text editor. I used BBEdit, but TextEdit (see note below) will work just fine. For example, my dummy page is named "Photo Archives.html".
Note: If you're going to use TextEdit, you need to select the checkbox "Ignore rich-text commands in HTML files" from the Open & Save pane of the Preferences dialog PRIOR to opening the file from your iDisk.
Step 6.) Select all of the text (Command-A) and Delete.
Step 7.) Paste the following text, substituting the URL you want to link to.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></title><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.mydomain.com/mypage.html" /></head><body></body></html>
Step 8.) Save the file. You're done! You now have a link in the main navigation which goes to any URL you want.
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hi,
I'm OK to step seven but in your example can you highlight or make bold the "url address part " I'm to replace with my own?
Thanks!
Step 6.) Select all of the text (Command-A) and
Delete.
Step 7.) Paste the following text, substituting the
URL you want to link to.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.d
td"><html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></ti
tle><meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;url=http://www.mydomain.com/mypage.html"
/></head><body></body></html>
Step 8.) Save the file. You're done! You now have a
link in the main navigation which goes to any URL you
want.

Wipe out Internal Mac Book Pro hard drive

I need help on how to wipe out my internal Mac Book Pro hard drive. I used the Mac Office demo and now the demos are no longer usable. How can I wipe out the mac book pro hard drive? Should I contact my Apple Care service center for assistance, since I am paying for that service and they can walk me through the process? I want to clear out to what it was like when I first got the lappy. Help, anyone? Thanks in advance.

Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disk. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.)
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with the OS X installation. Once OS X has been installed and is running you can then run the installer for the pre-bundled software.

Navigation menu not showing up

Hi,
I am creating a site using iWeb and have uploaded it to my web host and all runs fine... except for the navigation menu, which is kinda important. I know i could make my own, but I would like to use the default one anyway.
So everything looks fine in iWeb. Here is a screenshot showing the default navigation menu (I am using the darkroom theme)
But when I publish to my server and view through safari (have also tried Firefox and get the same results), this is what I see where the navigation menu should be:
There is no light grey horizontal box, no writing, just a black dot point. The dark grey on the sides is normal, its not in the iweb screenshot because my window wasn't very wide.
I tried disabling the menu, re-publishing (which removed the dot point), enabling it again and re-publishing but I still get the same issue.
Any ideas on why I can't get the menu??
Cheers.

I had the same issue. It's a cache settings problem. I resolved it this way:
Go to Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network
On that screen under the 'Cached Web Content' section, UNCHECK the 'Override automatic cache management' check box.
Then quit Firefox entirely and restart it. Should do the trick.
Peace out
SL

Change the navigation menu in iweb

I have buy an iweb template that has the navigation menu always fixed. No matter is you move the mouse over the links to the pages, if you are in the welcome page or blog, the text is always the same.
I have ask to author of the template to make the active page text grayed out but he wants again money because this is customizing request of the template...
Is there a way to change the color of the text of the navigation menu? It is enough that the active page is highlighted.
Thank you

Thank you for the answers.
If it is possible I don't want create nothing because it complicates the stuffs (I'm a very beginner in this things). I have tried the javascript way but it don't modifies the behavior of the menu.
Excavating in the iWeb application folder I have reach this file that seems the responsable of the navigation bar: iWeb.app/Contents/Resources/Themes/_Simple\ Info\ orange.webtheme/Italian.lproj/Welcome.webtemplate/com.apple.iweb.widget.navbar. Welcome.plist
I have open it with Pref Setter:
.navbar {
font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: .8em;
color: #666666;
line-height: 30px;
border-bottom: 3px solid #ccc;
.navbar-bg {
text-align: right;}
.navbar-bg ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;

font-weight: bold;
li a:hover
color: #999999;
text-decoration: none;
li.current-page a

I have change the color value but nothing happens. Have you any suggestion?
Thank you

PS: maybe in 10 days Apple publishes iWeb 10 that permits these modifies...

Navigation Menu Not Visible

I just created a website through iweb. After I published it (FTP) the navigation menu suddenly did not show up at all on any of the web pages. All of the pages are there, but there are no borders around the pictures throughout the site, and on a photo album page, the photos wont show up. My hosting company is startlogic.com The site is www.southlandvet.com if you wanna check it out...The navigation is supposed to be at the top right part of the page. The photo page is www.southlandvet.com/Our_Pets.html
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Well, I published the site to a folder and published everything in that folder to the server and placed the scripts in a cgi-bin folder, which is what the hosting company told me to do. Is there another way?
Ok, new guess... All the links to the scripts get broken because of placing the scripts into another location... You shouldn't change the structure of the site you should leave it the way iWeb created it... +How could a page ever know where the files are it needs to load properly if they aren't where it was told by iWeb?+ I don't know why they suggested you to do so...
Try to upload it the way iWeb creates it without changing anything...

Add a link to the navigation / menu bar

I would like to add a home button infront of the My Workspace button in the navigation/menu bar at the top of my Vibe page.
What jsp of file should I edit to achieve this?

I didn't look for that JSP, but used the branding for a high level "menu" AND wrote my own JSP to have a dynamic horizontal menu based on a portion of the workspace tree. The problem with changing Vibe's grey menu bar is that any upcoming updates might destroy your tweak. I have a few of those I need to keep in mind whenever an update or patch is done.
With my JSP adding, removing or modifying workspaces/folders in the identified branch automagically changes on the fly generated horizontal menu with the next refresh/visit of the landing page using the JSP. The menu can be for any branch of your workspace tree. If a visitor doesn't have access to a workspace or folder, the menu skips right over it automagically as well.
You can find this homebrewed JSP and key details at : Use this nifty JSP to make a dynamic horizontal menu from a branch of your workspace tree | Novell User Communities
It allows you to reorder the menu items and even drop some workspaces/folders from the menu with a simple trick explained in the article.
To see the JSP at work, go to CSDECSO - Conseil scolaire de district des écoles catholiques du Sud-Ouest or any of our 30 or so school web sites being implemented within our existing Vibe instance. You won't be able to change the tree branch, but you will see the menu. Some schools have slightly different menu choices, if you poke around long enough to find these differences. I just made them accessible to the public a few weeks ago.
Don't forget to use the integrated GoogleTranslate (generally near the Vibe printer icon in upper right corner beneath the branding and grey menu) to convert the bulk of our sites' content to any one of the 60 or so languages supported by Google. I have an article explaining how this was done as well. Of course, it is an automated translation, so don't expect perfection and don't be offended if it comes out the wrong way.
