Multiple Endeca images with multiple static IP's

Hello,
I have the following problem:
I have created an Oracle Linux 64BIT image with Endeca V3.1. I set the network connection to NAT and entered that IP in my Host file with my hostname. Everything was working fine, because I used a static IP > Configured that in the Host file and installed Endeca afterwards.
But now we would like to use this image for trainings. So I would like to copy this image like 10 times and use static IP's for every image. BUT every image has a different static IP.
The problem that I face now is that I cannot connect to my Endeca Server via the Terminal or Studio. The static IP of one of my images is 172.31.10.20. I have configured my Host file like this:
172.31.10.20     localhost.localdomain
127.0.0.1          localhost.localdomain
Endeca Server starts but I cannot connect to it and get the message:
"Could not connect to Endeca Server at localhost:7001"
Does anybody know how I can fix this problem so that I don't have to re-install Endeca for every single image?
Thanks!!
Marco

  • JNDI Lookup for multiple server instances with multiple cluster nodes

    Hi Experts,
    I need help with retreiving log files for multiple server instances with multiple cluster nodes. The system is Netweaver 7.01.
    There are 3 server instances all instances with 3 cluster nodes.

    The application is working for multiple server instances with a single cluster node but not working for multiple cusltered environment.
    Anybody knows what should be changed to handle more cluster nodes?
    Thanks,
    Gergely

    Thanks for the response.
    I was afraid that it would be something like that although
    was hoping for
    something closer to the application pools we use with IIS to
    isolate sites
    and limit the impact one badly behaving one can have on
    another.

  • Multiple Thumb Slider with Multiple Track Colors

    Hi All,
    Does any one implemented a Multiple Thumb Slider component with Multiple Track Colors. Please find the screen shot of the component below which I am talking about.
    Any ideas or any link or sample source of code given would be highly appreciated.
    If I drag any thumb the colored section between any two thumbs should increase or decrease.
    Thanks,
    Bhasker

    Hi,
    There is a sort of workaround I made myself. Basically you set up your slider into a canvas container and add new boxes exactly at the position between your thumb buttons, in order to imitate your 'tracks'. Look the image below and notice that the black tracks are in fact VBoxes. For different colors, make each VBox different backgroundColor style.

          var tracks : Array = [];
          public function changeSliderHandler(event : Event) : void {
             for (var i : int = 0,j : int = 0; i < tracks.length; i++) {
                var track : VBox = tracks[i] as VBox;
                track.setStyle('left', slider.getThumbAt(j++).xPosition + 3);
                track.setStyle('right', slider.width - slider.getThumbAt(j++).xPosition + 3);
          public function addTrackHandler(event : Event) : void {
             var track : VBox = new VBox();
             track.setStyle('backgroundColor', '#000000');
             track.width = 0;
             track.height = 2;
             track.setStyle('bottom', '7');
             tracks.push(track);
             canvas.addChild(track);
             slider.values = slider.values.concat(0, 0);
             slider.thumbCount += 2;

  • Programming multiple smart cards with multiple smart card readers in a PC causes a PCSCException in a smart card that is in progress

    Hi,
    I develop a Java code using smartcardio API to program a smart card. My GUI allows to add at most 5 smart card readers that will wait for card present, then do authentication and program the smart card with an application, then wait for card removal. This is a separate thread running in a loop for each smart card reader added as programmer.
    The problem occurs when a certain smart card is in progress and I inserted another smart card to another smart card reader.  Both smart card reader halts and throw sun.security.smartcardio.PCSCException: Unknown error 0x8010002f.
    I also observed that every time there is an attempt to insert/remove a smart card in the smart card reader that is connected to the USB port would cause the programming in progress to be interrupted and throw the PCSCException.
    These are some exceptions I got during my testing:
    sun.security.smartcardio.PCSCException: Unknown error 0x8010002f
      at sun.security.smartcardio.PCSC.SCardTransmit(Native Method)
      at sun.security.smartcardio.ChannelImpl.doTransmit(ChannelImpl.java:171)
    java.lang.Exception: Loader Record Failed: 6E | 0 //Sometimes I got this return code SW1 0x6E SW2 0x00 which means an APDU with an invalid 'CLA' bytes was received. I had check the command before it was sent and it was correct.
    Help me understand this issue. I think the CardTerminal.isCardPresent(), CardTerminal.waitForCardPresent(0), and CardTerminal.waitForCardAbsent(0) cause this issue that CardChannel.transmit(apduCommand) is interrupted or the smart card insertion/removal causes the CardChannel.transmit(apduCommand) is interrupted.
    Regards,
    Knivez

    Hi,
    when you work with one smartcard reader only usually you address the slot -1 that means "the first found".
    But to deal with multiple readers you have to use slots of course since one reader will be slot 0, next reader will be slot 1 and so on...
    So a credential object will be identified on a system by a couple
    <slot,alias>
    After that, the way to address slots (I mean the syntax) depends on the classes you are using...

  • Identical images with multiple names

    Hi
    i'm trying to clean up my iphoto library (iphoto 08, version 7.1) by manually deleting old photos and duplicates. I have come across old photos (brought from iphoto 04) that appear to be identical but have different names/titles and have been placed in separate events by iphoto 08: some have "jpeg" in the name, others do not (but are still jpegs). Sometimes the image numbers do not match. (These were all taken with the same camera.) Generally, the non jpeg images do have more MB.
    Are these just edited versions of the same photos? Which are the originals? Is there a quick way to determine which to save? What's the most important piece of data to look for when comparing photos?
    some background info: i did have to rebuild my thumbnail cache after transferring my old photos to iphoto 08.
    thanks!
    Kateroo

    Kateroo:
    Did you import your older library into a new iPhoto 08 library? If so that's why you would many duplicates of the same image as iPhoto would import the modified files as well as the original and, for some strange reason, import multiple copies of the modified files.
    There are two application that you can try to cull out the duplicates in the library: Duplicate Annihilator and iPhoto Diet. I would make a temporary backup copy of the library before running either application in case the results are not what you expected.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How to make a single image with multiple clickable points?

    Hi,
    I just started using CS4 yesterday, but am pretty confused. I managed my first little achievement with it, but am havign troubles. I'm not even sure of the capabilities of the software to be honest, but I would like to know if I can have a single image, then have sections of it which can be hovered over with a tag and a link to another part of my site. Is this something that can be done?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    to reach several different links on the image you need to create so-called hotspot (I had to translate the following terms from my German Dreamweaver). How to do?
    Click into the image
    Open properties window
    Open list box orientation.
    Surround the image parts in question (look at the green arrow). Feel free/play with chosen forms.
    Hans-G.
    P.S.
    You shouldn't use only images on your site.

  • Image with multiple handles

    Hi,
    I cut and paste image from Adobe Illustrator into Indesign. I am puzzled and confused to see 3 various handles. I just want to scale the image however each time I have scaled down wrongly. The image seems to be cropped and hidden. Below is my screen shot. Any help is really appreciated. Thank you.

    Why is this coming from Illustrator? It's a raster image and should be PLACED, not pasted, as an image. The ONLY non-text content you should consider pasting (unless it is copied from palced content in an ID document) is simple paths, never rasters.
    In the sample file you snet me there are a couple of things going on. You have two images. Both need frames when thay are pasted, and the lower image is simply inside the frame that ID created when you issued the paste command with nothing selected. The upper image is more confusing because the image is inside a frame, and THAT frame is inside another frame (this appears to be the case inthe screen shot above, too). I suspect you might have drawn that frame first, then used Paste Into, but I have no way of telling. Depending on the structure, and the tool in use, you can select either the container frame or the content (double-clicking with the selection tool will cycle through container/content selections). In you case all of the frames are on the default layer and their bounding boxes are blue, The images contained inside the frames will have brown bounding boxes when they are selected instead of the container.
    You can move the image around inside the frame that contains it, and if you have one frame inside another you can move the inner frame around inside the outer. Your scaling will be applied (if you are scaling and not just cropping -- use the modifier keys with the mouse as explained to you in another thread if you need to scale, or use the scale fields, scale tool or free transform tool inistead of the Selection tool) to both the frame and its contents if you select the frame, but only to the image if you select it directly.

  • Multiple Apple IDs with multiple PCs and multiple AppleTVs - content not authorised

    So, this is a slightly complicated setup; but it should work... and it does, until randomly AppleTV decides that it isn't authorised to play some content.
    Setup is this:
    PC1 - authorised for AppleID1, AppleID2, AppleID3 and AppleID4 - HomeSharing turned off - pirmary AppleID (used for new purchases) is AppleID1
    PC2 - authorised for AppleID1, AppleID2, AppleID3 and AppleID4 - HomeSharing turned off - primary AppleID (used for new purchases) is AppleID2
    AppleID3 and AppleID4 are other AppleIDs and only occasionally used for new purchases depending on content availablity. Yes these are genuine AppleIDs associated with other email addresses in other regions as we split our time between countries.
    PC3 - authorised for AppleID1, AppleID2, AppleID3 and AppleID4 - HomeSharing turned ON (using AppleID1) - this PC isn't used interactively for purchasing content it's only purpose is for HomeSharing.
    Please note that each PC has it's own iTunes library, all content is synchornised between PCs using sync programs (e.g. SuperSync) or a shared drive NAS.
    There are 4 AppleTVs that are sharing the content from PC3.
    Sometimes, when trying to play some content on one of the AppleTVs then the message that this content is not authorised will appear. So far the only way I have found around this is to go to PC3 and re-authorise that PC with the AppleID that was used to purchase the content. The PC _always_ reports that "This computer is already authorised for that AppleID"; however after doing this the content plays on the AppleTV.
    How can I avoid this problem? PC3 is basically used as a HomeSharing server so that I don't have to have the individual PCs turned on. As far as I understand content is licensed to a specific AppleID and NOT (except with rentals) to a specific AppleID _and_ specific device.
    I will happily change to using iCloud to allow all of my devices to access all of my content that I have purchased, but at the moment it seems that this problem will exist no matter how the content gets onto the device. Using a single new AppleID isn't possible either as we need to have different AppleIDs for different places.
    Is there any solution? Why does AppleTV report that the content isn't authorised when the PC which is sharing the content is actually authorised? Why does re-authorising the PC make it work, when it reports that it was already authorised??
    This is becoming seriously annoying.

    Hi
    i ran into the same problem. surprisingly though, i am not using multiple apple id and just one mac.
    i did change both the account (apple id) and the computer (from pc to a mac server), but home sharing is on and the apple tv (1) is synced with the new computer.
    i can connect to the itunes store and browse through it (signed in at all times). i cannot purchase any content and cannot play transferred rentals from the computer (apple tv is not authorised...)
    somehow, it seems the apple tv was stuck with a previous id.
    i have just now re-authorised my computer on the account and will give the apple tv another try. i did notice a message during the re-authorisation process. the apple tv is being authorised. this gives me hope.
    in any case, your setup seems to be a dream come through. i decided to phase out my high end multiroom linn kivor system (over 20k back 6y ago) to an itunes based system. apparently you managed to build something.
    i tried an itunes based nas but gave up due to complex operation (and overheating on top) and went for a mac server. i will be using windows clients though.
    most of my content is cd based. can you sync purchased content between pc's? or with a server?

  • SSL Multiple Tunnel Groups with Multiple group policies

    Hello folks.
    Have a query and cant seem to find an answer on the web.
    I have configured SSL Clientless VPN on a lab ASA5510, using 2 tunnel groups, one for enginneers and one for staff, mapped to 2 different group policies, each with different customisation. I have mapped the AD groups to the tunnel groups using both ACS and now LDAP (currently in use), both working successfully, using group lock and LDAP map of IETF-Radius-Class to Group name ensures engineers get assigned to the engineers tunnel group and staff get mapped to the staff tunnel group only.
    The question i have is....is there a way to use a single tunnel group to map the user based on AD group which will then use the correct Group-policy (1 tunnel group to multiple group-polciies). I have seen examples of doing this with different URLs but want to know if they can all use the same URL and avoid using the drop down list using aliases.
    It may be a simple "No" but it would be nice to know how to do it without using the URLs or drop down list. Users are easily confused ......

    Easy. Disable the drop-down list, and use the authentication-server (LDAP or Radius) in the DefaultWEBVPNGroup. By default when you browse to the ASA, it will be using the DefaultWEBVPNGroup. Let LDAP or Radius take care of the rest.
    You will get the functionality you are looking for.

  • Multiple Mail Domains with multiple IP addresses

    Hello,
    I am attempting to configure a mail server with 3 domains and 3 distinct IP addresses. I am currently only working with 2 of the domains.
    Mail sent to either domain is received by the accounts in both domains: if I send a message to [email protected], it goes to both that mailbox and the [email protected] mailbox. I have user accounts set up in WGM for both domains.
    I'm sure I have something misconfigured, but the only instructions I can find for multiple domains assume virtual domains using only one IP address.

    Scott,
    can you elaborate a bit on the final goal?
    There is no need to use multiple IPs to run seperate domains. Virtual domains can handle this just fine.
    You could run three different instances of postfix bound to different IPs and different configurations. (postfix -c configdir_touse start) Each config directory would have its own main.cf with the main parameters to be changed being "inet_interfaces", "myhostname" and "mydomains". However, unless you have a very specific need this is just an extra headache.

    I am new to Mac...in the second week of converting all of my home applications from my old PC's.
    I have a multiple sheet Numbers spreadsheet with each sheet having multiple pages. When I save and the re-open the spreadsheet it opens to the last sheet/page I was using. However, when I move to any of the other sheets they open on first page....requiring me to page down on each one to get to the current page.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to set up numbers to have all the sheets return to their last active page when opening? This is the default in Excel and would seem (at least to me) to be the much more logical option.

    Hi JD,
    That would be a good suggestion for you to make to Apple via the Numbers menu, Provide Numbers Feedback option.
    For now, there are two ways to navigate that you may not be taking full advantage of. First is to expand the Sheet lists to show individual Tables that you can jump to by clicking on their names. The second is to use the Search window. Command-F will open a window and show matches to your criteria, and clicking on the match listing will take you to the cell where it is found.

  • How do I create multiple libraries & use with multiple ipods?

    Hi All,
    My wife and I have different tastes in music. Currently we use different user log ons to seperate our libraries. It's a complete pain because there's no other reason to use seperate log ons.
    We'll soon be upgrading to a new iMac and I'm wondering if it's possible to have two libraries operating in the one itunes sesssion?
    So here are my questions:
    1) Can I have two libraries sourcing the same music files?
    2) We each have an iPod, can it be set to only update one of those libraries, but still automatically update when connected?
    3) If we create playlists, will they be associated with only one library, or both (my preference is one, of course)?
    4) I'm pretty sure iPods can be set so my iPod only updates my playlists, and my wife's iPod only updates her playlists - is that correct?
    5) If we have seperate libraries, can we have seperate ratings? (Our opinion of what a five star song is is different)!
    Of course, for the above questions, if the answer is 'yes' please let me know how to do this. I've had a look through the itunes manuals online, but they don't seem to have any information.
    Cheers, Chris

    Chris,
    I have the exact same situation, and I have tried Doug's iTunes Library Manager, but it doesn't work for me. The first workaround I tried was to set up two smart playlists to group together any music that only one of us liked, which could then be checked or un-checked (control-click) depending on which iPod is being synced. This is clumsy, and if you aren't careful the Recently Added playlist will still "contaminate" your iPod.
    Last night I just made a new library for my wife (hold down Option when starting iTunes), copied everything over using the Add to Library command, exported all the playlists using the Export Library command, deleted all the music and playlists she doesn't want, and synced her iPod. It took a while to erase and re-sync, but it is now synced to HER library, and she doesn't see any music she doesn't like.
    Tonight I will do the same for myself. I will have, then, three libraries which can be selected by holding down the option key when starting iTunes: Mine, My wife's, and the main one with everything (called Library) All the music files stay on an external Firewire Drive. There is no way to toggle libraries from within iTunes, you have to quit and start it again holding down the option key.
    Podcasts are another story, and I haven't quite figured them out yet.

  • Multiple OS's with Multiple iTunes not sharing

    Ok so... here's the deal. After trolling forums for 3 days I figured I'd pose my exact scenario looking for an exact answer.
    I have 3 computers on my home network. 2 PCS's with Windows 7 running iTunes 10.3 and one iMac G3 with Tiger 10.4.11 running iTunes 8, all 3 iTunes are authorized on the same account.
    I have one of my Windows 7 boxes sharing its library and the other 2 listening for shared libraries. The second Windows 7 box sees the shared library but the iMac does not see any shared libraries. I don't even see a Shared menu on the left side of iTunes 8.
    Where does my problem lie?

    ...iMac G3...running iTunes 8... I don't even see a Shared menu on the left side of iTunes 8...
    You need a newer version of iTunes.  Home Sharing was introduced in version 9.
