    Hi Connor,
    I solved the issue, it seems like the library path was pointing to /usr/local/lib rather than /usr/lib. Now the code is working fine.
    I assume that ubuntu and arch places gdcm libraries at different locations, it was working code moved from ubuntu to arch and i got that error.

  • Adobe Media Encoder for CS4 error Could not read from the source

    Hello,
    I get an error when I try to export from Premiere CS4. It doesn't matter how I export. Seems like an easy fix, but I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated:
    - Source File: C:\DOCUME~1\ARTWHI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\extra and b roll.prproj
    - Output File: E:\Living Accused Movie Transfers\video\Cindy at table.avi
    - Preset Used: NTSC DV
    - Video:
    - Audio:
    - Bitrate:
    - Encoding Time: 16:10:34
    1/21/2009 9:50:25 PM : Encoding Failed
    Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been
    deleted.
    Thank you
    Art

    When you attempt to encode media with Adobe Media Encoder CS4 on Windows, the following error message appears in the text file (AMEEncodingErrorLog.txt) that opens when you click the error icon: "Encoding Failed. Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted."
    If it's that correct, you removed an earlier version of Adobe Premiere Pro or Adobe Creative Suite on the same computer.
    Do one or both of the following solutions:
    Solution 1: Create a shortcut to the Premiere Pro executable file, rename the shortcut to Premiere, and move the shortcut to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
    Close all Adobe applications.
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. (If you installed Premiere Pro CS4 in a location other than the default of C:\Program Files\Adobe, then navigate to your custom installation location.)
    Right-click on Adobe Premiere Pro.exe (which might appear without the .exe extension) and choose Create Shortcut.
    Rename the newly created shortcut to just Premiere.
    Important: The name of the shortcut must be exactly Premiere with no other characters.
    Open a second Windows Explorer window, and navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\dynamiclink.
    Move the Premiere shortcut that you created into the dynamiclink folder.
    Solution 2: Remove and reinstall all Premiere Pro CS4 components or all Adobe Creative Suite 4 components.
    Do one of the following:
    Windows XP: Choose Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
    Windows Vista: Choose Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    In the list of installed programs, select Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium, or Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection.
    Click Change/Remove (Windows XP) or Uninstall (Windows Vista).
    Follow the on-screen instructions to remove all components of Premiere Pro CS4 (including Adobe Encore CS4 and Adobe OnLocation CS4) or to remove all components of your edition of Adobe Creative Suite 4.
    Re-install your Adobe software.

    Hello All,
    I am facing the following error while running a loadtest (when i choose the scenario to be executed for No of test iterations). But the same loadtest with the Run duration for X minutes is running fine without any issues. 
    Any suggestions on the issue i am facing

    Hi Kotapati,
    >>Subject: VSTS loadtest error while running Loadtest with Runsettings as  No of test iterations ,  ERROR is :  could not read result repository: unknown transaction
    id in results:
    According to your description, you mean that when you run your load test using the Test Iterations way and then get the error message, am I right?
    If yes, please you try to close the VS, and then open this VS again. Then clean your load test project/solution and then re-build it, run your load test again check this issue again.
    In addition, I suggest you could try to create a new load test and then run it using Test Iterations way check if you get the issue for the specified load test or all load tests.
    If possible, I suggest you could share me simple load test for us so that we will further help you.
    You could upload your load test to OneDrive and then copy link here.

  • Media Encoder crash in CS6. Could not read from the source. Check if it has moved or been deleted.

    I'm having a problem getting Media Encoder to get past the dynamic link portion of encoding a time line sequence.
    I can send it over to Media Encoder, but it crashes consistently after the yellow bar saying something about dynamic link.
    I have CS6 installed in my computer here at work, it previously had CS5.5 installed on it.
    I read some answers about CS4 having this problem and tried to create a shortcut and put it in the dynamic link folder, but that didnt work.
    I would hate to have to reinstall the software here at work as the IT department is a pain- but I can't encode video on one of the computers we use here.
    Any ideas on what may be happening and how I can solve the problem?
    Thanks!
    Its a Dell Workstation with Windows 7 Ultimate installed dualE5620 processors at 2.4GHz. .
    only 6 GB RAM, and a RAID 5 hard drive setup with 3- one gb drives giving the C drive space of 1.8Gigs
    Its got an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 420 video card.
    I'm upgrading this computer to better work with editing video, so this is a good time to get this all cleaned up.
    Im adding RAM (24GBs)- replacing the video card to a GTX 780 3GB running 3 monitors.
    I'd also like to either split up the RAID (ugh)..or just add 2 internal SAS HDDs. to split up the video and the cache and the OS/programs as is usually done with editing video.
    Thanks for your help in advance...
    Mike

    ...more information...problem still not solved....
    After searching more in the forums, I tried a couple more things:
    I tried to restart AME and clearing the preferences. This didnt help.
    I also deleted the ...appData/Roaming/Adobe/AdobeMediaEncoder/6.0 folder and all subfolders   No help here either.
    I also tried to import the sequence via AME rather than export via PP. This worked. The sequence loaded immediately and processed perfectly.
    When I export via PP, I hit the queue button, it hangs for about 3 mins, then the yellow bar appears saying "Connecting to Dynamic Link server"
    it then hangs for approx 3 mins again and then I get the Failed alert.
    the error log reports:
    Encoding failed
    Could not read from source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.
    any help available here????

  • Error: Could not read Header Mapping in Receiver Agreement

    Dear SAP experts,
    Newly installed SAP G7A PI 7.1(Acceptance box) was already released to customer.
    We are doing an initial test (BAT phase), wherein, our end-to-end scenario is, from a EP Portal application  --->  G7A PI 7.1   -->  Trading Partner via AS2 protocol.
    G7A PI is connected to Trading Partner via AS2 protocol.
    Currently, our EP Portal application is in-active at the moment, that's why we used 'manual XI submitter', to send a message from G7A PI itself going to Trading Partner.
    The message was success in the Integration engine of  G7A PI, and the output message was produced.
    As the message reached the Adapter Engine layer of G7A PI, we encountered a specific error,
    Delivering the message to the application using connection AS2_http://seeburger.com/xi failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: javax.resource.ResourceException: Fatal exception: com.seeburger.xi.connector.queue.TaskBuildException: Could not create CPAObjectMapper: InvocationTargetException caused by Could not read Header Mapping in Receiver Agreement: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.Party.getParty() of an object returned from com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.NormalizationManager.getXIParty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String), Could not create CPAObjectMapper: InvocationTargetException caused by Could not read Header Mapping in Receiver Agreement: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.Party.getParty() of an object returned from com.sap.aii.af.service.cpa.NormalizationManager.getXIParty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
    Basically, "Could not create CPAObjectMapper - InvocationTargetException caused by Could not read Header Mapping in Receiver Agreement"
    I am thinking, one of the possible cause is that we used manual XI submitter, in G7A PI, instead of the utilizing the actual Sending system (EP Portal application).
    Or possible cause is that the AS2 adapter in G7A is not yet stable, thus causing the issue.
    We've already done successful connection when we're in GDD PI (Development box) during our SIT phase.
    Objects in G7A were mirror of GDD PI.
    Kindly advise for your inputs.
    Thanks!
    Gerberto

    Hi,
    It seems that the cause of the error is the unstable performance of the PI box, since, this was newly installed and there were patches that were not yet added.
    Thanks for the support!

  • ERROR:Could not read archive file - during Processing Base System Part 2

    Hi there,
    What I have:
    * I have problem with installation of the Mac OS X Panther v10.3 on iMac.
    * I have 3 original CDs (black with silver X).
    What I did:
    * I made new 1 partition and formated disk as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) over the Disk Utility in the first CD as normal without additional options (if I tried to format disk with zero all data and 8 way random write format after 3 days computer freeze)
    * I verified disk over this utility - that was ok - HFS volume verifed.
    * Then I restarted the computer and ran installation from this first CD
    What happened:
    * installation did not finish, because there were some problems during installation process.
    * i tried to customize installation just for essential work (without other languages support, printers etc), but it was still the same problem

    It seems like a problem with reading some data from the CD, but during the installation checking of disk was ok.. maybe it can be problem with the cd-rom..? Or problem with data on cd-rom - I mean bad archive file..? But it is original CD.. What do you think??
    Thank you!

  • Problem: 'Could not read from source' when exporting project.

    Hi everybody
    I am using Adobe Premiere CS4 on my MacBook Pro 15'' (i5 processor, 4 GB RAM, 500 GB Harddisc, 256 MB video memory (high-clockspeed))
    Everything works well except of one big thing, every time when i try to export my finished project the Media Encoder tells me always the same thing directly after pushing the start button. 'Could not read from the sorce. Please check if it has been removed or deleted'.
    I tried removing any offending plugins, i fixed the disk permissions.. But it all doesnt matter anything.
    No matter what i try to export, no matter in what file format. It just doesnt work. I even tried exporting a project which only contains a video file of 5 seconds without anything more but it just doesnt work. Its impossible that i have touched or modified or replaced any source files...
    Some help would be very very appreciated!!

  • "ERROR: Could not read block 64439 of relation 1663/16385/16658: Result too large"

    Hi,
    I've already archived a lot of assets in my final cut server but since one week there is a message appearing when I click on an asset and choose "Archive". The pop-up says: "ERROR: Could not read block 64439 of relation 1663/16385/16658: Result too large"
    Does anyone know what's the problem and/or have any suggestions to solve my problem?! I can't archive anymore since the first appearance of this message.
    What happened before?
    -> I archived some assets via FCS and then transfered the original media to an offline storage media. That system worked fine for the last months and my normal server stays quit small in storage use. But now, after I added some more new productions and let FCS generate the assets, it doesn't work anymore...
    It's not about the file size - I tried even the smallest file I found in some productions.
    It's not a particular production - I tried some different productions.
    It's not about the storage - there's a lot of storage left on my server.
    So, if someone knows how get this server back on the road - let me know.
    THNX!
    Chris

    I would really appreciate some advice re: recent FCS search errors.
    We're having similar issues to C.P.CGN's 2 year old post, it's only developed for us in the last few weeks.

    OS 10.6.x updates.
    FCS is still usable for 6 of 8 offliners, but on some machines, searching assets presents "ERROR: could not read block 74012 of relation1663/16385/16576: Input/output error."
    Assuming the OS and/or data drives on the FCS machine were failing, I cloned the database drive today and will clone the OS drive tomorrow night, but after searching the forums and seeing similar error messages I'm not so sure.
    FCS has been running fine for last 4 years, minus the recent Java security issues.
    Thanks in advance, any ideas appreciated!
    cheers,

  • Premiere Pro CS4 Export fails with Media Encoder CS4 "Encoding Failed"," Could Not Read From Source.

    There has never been a history of Adobe CS3 installation on the brand new MAC Pro I am using prior to installing Master Collection CS4, despite other posts claiming that chief cause of this issue is a previous CS3, Beta or trial installations of previous versions. I simply had a straightforward installation of CS4 and have had trouble since day 1.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Master CS4 three times, two times with the action script cleaner for CS4. I tried changing Adobe Cache folder locations to alternative drives. I ran shift start many times to correct any inconsistencies and corrected for permissions using disk utilities repeatedly. All updates have been installed and I am still getting the same error when exporting my timeline to Media Encoder CS4, be it a large High Definition project or a small one consisting of few stills.
    No matter what presets I chose, the job appears as one of the items in the render qeuee of Media Encoder CS4 and sits there with the status WAITING until i hit Start Queue. When I do, it still says WAITING under Status and at the bottom corner of the window it reads : Loading "project name.prproj" and after an average of about 6 minutes, a yellow caution sign appears. No render whatsoever takes place. When I click on the yellow caution sign, it reads a log of all errors in connection with each job, including the ones that have gone before it. Here is one:

    Please any gurus out there know how to troubleshoot this damn thing on Mac, I really appreciate it. I have not yet encountered any posts of Mac owners with no previous CS3 installation having this issue. I am in the middle of 3 projects with tight deadlines and need your urgent help. THANK YOU!

    Hello There,
    I resolved the issue through a simple process of elimination. So simple in fact I wonder how I missed it. Since there has been no history of prior CS3 installation on this machine and every conceivable trick was applied to resolve the problem (refer to my original post earlier in the thread) ending in frustration, the problem had to reside in a factor or series of factors that were only present in this machine. Of the two remaining causes different in compare to other machines, I had to look into the possibility of any hardware and/or software conflicts. After all, this very same installation works perfectly fine on my colleague's Apple Macbook Pro and several Windows machines.
    It turns out that I had installed Pro Tools on this machine that comes with all kinds of optional plug-ins in the so called ignition pack. One of these optional plug-ins is called IZOTOPE (three varieties include Spectron, Trash and another one that escapes my mind). They were all lite version licenses that would automatically pop up on their own when you would start a program where they had been residing. One such program where an association existed was indeed the Premiere. An annoying dialogue box directing you to buy the full version when you would start the premiere would refuse to go away. Sometimes it would even start on its own culminating in a a permanent dialogue box.
    The cause of the problem was right before my eyes and I had overlooked it. Once uninstalled using IZOTOPE clean uninstaller on step 4, the problem was resolved. Projects are now loading very fast into the AME and encoding begins in earnest. I have never had any issues ever since.
    Long story short, if you have any plug-ins specially the ones that are loading upon the start of any program or the ones that reside inside the premiere or the ones that start on their own independently, they could be one of the highly probable causes of this error. I have seen other similar posts complaining of plug in folders inside premiere that needed to be moved to resolve the issue for instance the ones that needed to be moved to AE folders. If you are a plug-in admirer, I would suggest to look into them seriously.
    On the side note, many combination and causes may lead to the same error. I am not claiming that this is the solution for everyone.
    It must also be noted that I applied the trick of creating a shortcut of Premiere (and naming it exactly as such) and dropped it into the Adobe Dynamic LInk folder (even though this was suggested for windows)and have changed the adobe Cache locations to an alternative folder on a separate drive. I haven't been able to establish conclusively if the latter steps are also essential in fixing the error on MAC but I can confirm that since the latter steps were taken before the uninstalling of Izotope plug-ins and i still had issues, probably uninstalling those plug ins or finding a way to move them to a place where they don't interfere (if you absolutely need to keep them) is the one essential step that solved the problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • "Could not read from source" exporting on Mac with CS4

    I'm using Premiere CS4 on a MacBook Pro, trying to export a film and getting the  "could not read from source" message.  I did not have CS3, and I'm not on a pc, so the Windows KB articles and posts don't apply.  I've read all the posts I can find on the forums but none of these solutions is helping to date.
    Are there any troubleshooting steps someone can recommend to figure out what I need to do here?
    Here's the trace, any assistance is MUCH appreciated!

    Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted.

    I have been having the same issue on my desktop and laptop, although I have Windows XP Professional.  Originally had CS3 and then installed CS4.  The problem was fixed by uninstalling everything Adobe (even Reader), using the wincs3sclean, and reinstalling the CS4 products.  The first time it did't work on my laptop, so I did it a second time and it worked.  I don't have Creative Suite, but this still works.  Here is the link to wincs3clean:

  • File Import error: Could not read from source (OS X 10.8.2)

    I am having this time-wasting problem on a new Creative Cloud CS6 installation. I queue my Premiere exports normally on AME (CS6 updated versions), and they work fine if I start them right away. If the Mac is restarted however, they will fail giving this error. The log shows "Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been deleted". It looks for the source file at /Users/Username/Library/Caches/Temporary/projectname.prproj. Isn't AME supposed to hold the queue even after a shutdown/restart? Premiere has been uninstalled and reinstalled once, so maybe that's the cause of it? Thanks.

    Unfortunately, it looks like you've found a bug, an unplanned interaction between Premiere Pro's choice of temp directory and automatic OS behaviors.
    Jeff is correct, AME will hold the Queue between reboots. The problem is with the temporary project that Premiere creates.
    When you queue a sequence to AME from within Premiere (File > Export > Media, click the Queue button), Premiere creates a copy of the project in that temp directory. That is the file reference it sends to AME.
    The problem is that Mac OS appears to flush that directory on reboot. Thus, when you reopen AME, it can't find the file anymore.
    The bug is therefore that Premiere Pro is putting the file in a place where it can be deleted before being used. Sorry about that. I'll file the bug.
    You can work around the problem using a different method to add your sequence to the AME queue. Inside AME, use the File > Add command. You can also drag and drop the sequence icon from the Project panel in Premiere to the Queue panel in AME. Or you can just not reboot until you've rendered what's in the queue.
    I suppose it's possible that you could make Mac OS not flush the temp directory on reboot. There's a lot of fun things you can do in Terminal if you know the right commands. That's beyond my personal skillset.

  • Encoding Failed- Could Not Read from the Source

    I have a quickly approaching deadline for the short film I am working on, and it would be greatly appreciated if anyone knew anything of my predicament.  Everytime I try to export anything from Premiere Pro (CS4 of course), when I start the queue it says "Could Not Read from the Source.  Please check if it has been moved or deleted."  The files, of course, have not been moved or deleted, and the raw footage for the film is in the same place as everything else.  All my scratch disks are set to the same folder, etc.  I don't understand, and it won't even let me export to my camera.  It says it does, but when I check my camera, it's nothing but blank tape.  Any (quick) help would be very much appreciated!
    Thank you.
