Network Installer has quit due to an unexpected error. (exit code 133)

Hi guys. Our school just purchased some new 1.83 Intel Mac minis, and I'm trying to image them using our Powermac (running server 10.4.9). The minis won't boot from the net install image though, the spinning wheel just spins under the grey apple icon.
If I boot in verbose mode I get this error:
The Network Installer has quit due to an unexpected error. (exit code 133)
Please restart your computer.
The net image was created using one of the mac mini's as the master (i.e. off their installation discs + a few extra programs). I've used this process with all our other ppc macs and had no troubles.
Any ideas?

I'm getting the same error in verbose mode. I've made an image from an Intel iMac. My server, though, an Xserve, is running 10.4.8. I think the only difference (and I've gotten past images to work fine) is that I updated the Intel iMac to 10.4.9 in the new image.
What's going on? I've made close to 5 images and each one, the same error.

HT1338 software updates quit due to an unexpected error

Hi, When I run Software update the updates quit before they finish installing. I get a message-quit due to an unexpected error. I have run disc utility/repaired permissions/verified the disc etc many times. I have been experiencing this for nearly a year.
I read this discussion for a similar problem but am unsure if it relates to my problem?
Any advise would be appreciated.

Nautilus Can't Be Used Now Due To An Unexpected Error

I discovered that I am getting this message almost every time that I restart X using the command Ctrl + Alt + Backspace. I have been trying to figure out my proper resolution and have been doing many of these restarts recently.
The error message in full reads:
Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error from Bonobo when attempting to locate the factory. Killing bonobo-activation-server and restarting Nautilus may help fix the problem.
I followed this advise and ran a killall on both the activation server and nautilus. things seemed to be fixed after restarting x. i have been doing a fair bit of research on this phenomenon and it appears that over time that these fixes do not work and the problem rapidly gets worse.
i have searched the arch forum for references to this problem but found none. has anyone dealt with this problem, and if so, have you managed to fix it?
some articles site success with the deletion of ~/.config file or creating a new user. i was thinking of running
pacman -Sy gnome gnome-extras etc...
in order to reinstall gnome to see if that might clear up the problem.
any help or advice that you could offer on the situation would be great. thank you!
EDIT:
I can almost say with some certainty, that this is a permission's problem. After a nautilus failure, i always have to reset sudo with sudo -K.
possible solution(s) next post:

looks like the gtk theme is not the problem. didnt really think it was, but the documentation was worth posting. the guys over at ubuntu look as though they have dealt with this in great detail, and have produced a few solutions, which may or may not work. i have decided to post these for anyone else who may have these problems.

judging by a google search on this problem and the number of responses that came up, the bonobo/daemon error is quite a common curse for the users of gnome, although much more common in distros such as ubuntu or fedora.
i hope that this proves useful and if anyone has anything to add, please feel free. the more documentation the better.

another solution would be to remove gnome and reinstall it from scratch. (some please tell me if i am doing this correctly. thanks )
1. clean your catch:

The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error

Since demoting a child domain a few days ago, Exchange 2013 is still trying to contact it and as a result generating errors in the application event logs. I had a similar problem which I solved by removing some old migration batches, now I have a problem
with the Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service.
The event logged is:
The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error.
Request GUID: '0b6c0f5a-0563-48e2-8b97-e0781c6cc69a'

Process Microsoft.Exchange.Directory.TopologyService.exe (PID=2280). Exchange Active Directory Provider could not find an available domain controller in domain admin.riddlesdown.local. This event may be caused by network connectivity issues or
configured incorrectly DNS server.
The domain doesn't exist in AD Sites and Services, I have removed all traces from DNS but this is still occurring. When I run Get-ADServerSettings | fl it reports no trace of the domain or a DC that was previously in it.
How can I stop these events occurring and is it likely to be causing something else not to work correctly.
We are running Exchange 2013 CU1

No, that didn't work. Here are more details:

Common causes of this error include the following:

Something is cause the Exchange server to go looking for our old domain, but what and why?

BlackBerry Z10 Error "The file cannot be played due to an unexpected error (10)"

Hope someone can help this one, I received a voice note through BlackBerry Messenger, after downloading I tried to play it and the following message popped up, "The file cannot be played due to an unexpected error (10)".
I received another file, 3GP format, tried to play it, same error pops up. I headed over to the music and video libraries, I could not see these 2 files. I connect my Z10 to the notebook and checked on my SD Card, I could see the files from were not named correctly e.g. VID 00001-20101226-1206 was named as VID 00001%20101226-1206 with the percentage symbol being the unusual thing I picked up. This was the case for both files.
I then modified/remaned the files replacing the % with a - (dash) symbol. The files were now visible and able to play through the Z10. I think there is a problem with the way BBM files are being saved especially the naming convention might be having an error/bug.
My OS release is 10.0.10.99, Version 10.0.10.738 with Build 455718. Is there a fix for this problem that is known? I checked but saw no posts where it was clearly addressed. Am I the only one experiencing this anomaly?
I have restarted the device but this does not resolve. I have attached a screenshot of the error sequence also showing how the file is named upon saving to my media library.

Hey runyamhere,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
To find the root cause of this issue regarding the media not saving the file properly, we will need to gather logs from the BlackBerry Z10.
I would highly suggest you contact your network service provider and ask to be transferred to BlackBerry so we can get a case number created so we can get the logs.
Cheers.

Device Enrollment could not be installed due to an unexpected error

Hi I just installed OSX LION Server and want to enroll devices but I keep on getting the error : Device Enrollment could not be installed due to an unexpected error :
The profile “Device Enrollment (com.apple.ota."my-server-name-".private.bootstrap)” could not be installed due to an unexpected error.
My devices site is running properly, I can install Profiles but I cannot install any device, not even the mini I installed OSX Lion Server upon!
I already removed all certificates and keys for : ""my-server-name-".private" and recreated self signed certificates for SSL and code signing.
Any ideas?
Bert

So I just wasted half of a day on this, and at least for my own system I figured it out *without* doing a clean install.
1. First, check that you have opened the ports as suggested by others here.
2. If you've done that, then the problem may be a rogue entry in your DNS server setting. What that means is if you initially set up your server app with one name, then later switched it to a new one, the old name is still "hanging around" causing havoc. This was the problem. To fix, you can try the steps below. WARNING: this will wipe your open directory. Make a full backup! I'm not 100% sure that wiping your OD is necessary, but it worked for me. Turn off any services you're running.
3. Download the 10.7 server admin tools here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1419
4. Open up the WorkGroup manager, and select any network users you've created, then export them. You're backing them up because you're going to wipe your open directory.
5. Open Server Admin.app. Click on the reveal triangle for your server, and it will show an entry for "Open Directory". Click on that.
6. Click on the Settings gear in the top of the right panel.
7. Where it says Role: Open Directory Master, hit Change....
8. In the panel that pops up, hit "set up a standalone directory". It will warn you that it's going to wipe your server open directory data.
9. Now, on the left side of the same screen, select DNS, then hit the "zones" button on top.
10. Look for your old host name(s) there. Select any extra entries that have your old host names, and remove. DO NOT REMOVE your current name entry (the Primary Zone) or the reverse entry (Reverse Zone). If you remove those, you'll be totally hosed. Only remove redundant entries.
11. Back in the Server.app, go to the menu and select Manage -> Manage Network Accounts. It will ask you for some information as it sets up open directory again for you. Give it what it needs.
12. To re-import your saved account info, go to Manage -> Import Accounts From File. (I have not tried this step, but it *should* work. YMMV).
13. Now, go reactivate your profile manager, turn on device management. It should "think" for a bit while it churns through the new open directory data.
14. Now, it should work!!! (at least it does for me). I speculate that the name lookup was getting conflicting results from DNS, causing problems and confusion. This seems to have fixed it.
15. If that doesn't work, one other step I took (but it didn't seem to help by itself) was to wipe the device manager database. To do that, open a terminal and use
sudo /usr/share/devicemgr/backend/wipeDB.sh
WARNING: this will wipe any device info that you've set up. I don't think this is necessary, but might be used as a last ditch effort.
Hope that helps!

Surely you could provide some more information. Your system, what version of LR, is this your first attempt at using the program, or what has been prior experience? Things are a bit foggy.

The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error. Event 1121

Hello all,
We migrated our Exchange server from 2003 to 2010. After the mailbox move requests were finished we had one that was stuck. We basically skipped it as we had a lot of other things to finish over the weekend. Here we are a year later, the old exchange server
is gone and so is an old DC. I am receiving an error every four minutes in event viewer.
The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error.
Request GUID: '3e46b7cb-2ac0-42c1-98e8-57517a19ee40'
Database GUID: '5c6c573b-4f45-4ce3-b296-11cf69c2e2b6'
Error: Unable to find 'OLD Domain Controller' computer information in domain controller 'OLD Domain Controller' to perform the suitability check. Verify the fully qualified domain name..
I have checked in EMC for move requests. None are listed. I have checked the DCs listed in EMC properties. Old DC is not listed.
I also ran these commands in shell to attempt to cancel the stuck request.
Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus Completed;Pending;InProgress;Failed;CompletedWithWarning;Suspended;Queued;CompletionWithProgress : Remove-MoveRequest
NO changes. Still throwing error. Any suggestions? I also tried using the guid and shell to look at the move request. Systems replies no such request.

Hello,
Please try to restart iis services to check the result.
If the issue persists, I recommend you ping you DC server on your exchange server to check if your exchange server can communicate with your DC server.
If there are other DCs, please try to use set-adserversettings cmdlet to specify a DC for your exchange server.

The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error. : Error: An Active Directory Constraint Violation error occurred

Hello,
We have a multi domain parent child AD domain infrastructure and now we upgraded our exchange from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. Since last few days, we see the below error on the mailbox server event viewer.
EVENT ID : 1121
The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error.

Error: An Active Directory Constraint Violation error occurred on <domain controller FQDN>. Additional information: The name reference is invalid.
This may be caused by replication latency between Active Directory domain controllers.
Active directory response: 000020B5: AtrErr: DSID-0315286E, #1:
Our Exchange setup is in parent domain, but we keep on getting this error for various domain controllers in each child domain in the same site. We then configured one of the parent domain domain controller on Exchange. Still we are getting this error for
the configured parent domain DC.
Verified the AD replication and there is no latency or pending stuffs.
Any support to resolve this issue will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Jnana R Dash

Hi,
In addition to Ed's suggestion, I would like to clarify the following things for troubleshooting:
1. Please restart IIS at first.
2. If the issue persists, please ping your DC on your Exchange server to check if Exchange can communicate with DC.
Hope it helps.
Best regards,

Administrator software failed to start due to an unexpected error

Not a terribly useful message from ARD after a fresh install of 10.5.3:
"The Remote Desktop Administrator software failed to start due to an unexpected error."
"The Remote Desktop software may not be installed correctly or the computer may require a restart"
It installed something in the system on first launch then popped up with this message. My main concern is that it pooched my system in the process by replacing something new in Mac OS X 10.5.3 with something old from ARD 3.2...
Restarting now but who knows, might not be back for a while... %-\

Kill the "ARDAgent" program, either in Activity Monitor or Terminal, and it will start back up again. When you see it running again(make sure it's a new instance via the PID), you should be able to start Remote Desktop up without any problems after that.

A pdf form I have designed cannot be exported due to an "unexpected error". What can I do?

When I try to save a particular pdf form I have designed I get a message that it cannot be exported due to an unexpected error. I have not had this problem with other forms I have created. What can I do?

Yes, Forms Central. I made the form by using a blank form page, copying and pasting another form I had done previously to the blank page and then modifying it.
The original form I had copied from as the basis for the new form saved as a pdf form perfectly: the copied and then modified version kept displaying the error message.
In the end I have managed to work around this problem by opening another template form (the Assessment one) and spending forever copying the items from the form i couldn't export over to the " template form one at a time (after deleting the template items, naturally).
I will be making other forms that will have versions with minor variations and it would be much easier if I could copy and paste a whole form at a time rather than cell by cell but is that going to make the copied forms impossible to export from FormsCentral as it did with this one?
