No X window server running

I can not get an X window server running on my sunrays. Sorry I am new to using SunRays. I installed SunRay Server 3.1 and it seemed to install with no problems. I then configured using ./utadm -A not a problem [I am using a LAN configuration I set up the DHCP server ], then ./utconfig I let it configure my web server and enabled remote admin. I did not enable Controlled Access Mode [don't need it].
The Web Admin GUI works. Now when I start my first SunRay 170, it undated the firmware [I could see the OSD icon]. But no X server is started?
I looked up the OSD icons and numeric icon code. I get the Ethernet Address and assigned IP address [looks correct], I get the Auhtentication server IP address [looks correct]. I get an hour glass with 100 F [this means full duplex] and the numeric icon code at the right bottom is 26 D which means: 26 The Sun Ray has connected to the server and is waiting for graphics traffic (this is the GNC state). and D DHCP provided all expected parameters. I looked up this problem on the Admin Guide and it says its the "Wait for Session OSD". the fix is to cp Xservers and Xconfig from usr/dt/config to /etc/dt/config but this does not work. Also the Install guide mentions [page 45] a possible corruption problem. I never had any diff between these files, so I do not know how entries to /etc/dt/config/Xserver are made? I think this might be the problem but I do not know what to do next. The Install guide also mentions that when you replace them Xserver and Xconfig extra lines are automatically rebuilt? from where and how do you force them to do so.
Just in case i am running intel Solaris 10 on a sunfire v20z
Thanks in advance

I have gone ahead and unistalled I ran ./utinstall -u and the program uninstalled but I figure it did not uninstall everything [go figure].
I again reinstalled and checked the log file everything said it installed successfully. I ran ./utadm -A subnet# then ./utrestart then ./utconfig, sync sync init 6.
I think at this point it has messed something up with the web admin bit, or did not uninstall its previous configuration. I still get the Wait for Session OSD, but in the web admin I can not edit the policy it says an error has occured and I can not restart it either [I could before]. This does take me to the next question because it is setting a group policy somewhere:
utpolicy: [ID 702911 user.info] # Reading policy file: /etc/opt/SUNWut/policy/utpolicy # Current Policy: /opt/SUNWut/lib/utgenpolicy -a -g -z both
I want Access All Users to be set this is just one Sun Ray server not belonging to a group and I do not have any card readers [another annoying thing that loads why?]. Does anyone know how to use command line utpolicy to set up all user access? maybe this is the problem?
I have also downloaded the new Sun Ray Software 4 which is really just Sun Ray 3.1 [kind of pissed off about this], but does have Sun Desktop Manager. I do not know what this is but does anyone think it might give me more control in accepting or authenticating sun ray clients? I now think it is an authentication problem [from my previous errors] and might be something to do with the default policy [from these new errors].
I will again uninstall this software and try it again. If anyone knows how to uninstall this cleanly [better than ./utinstall -u ] or knows of better software for unix terminals than sun ray please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Windows Server - Run multiple domains under different accounts

Hi,
I have multiple domains on a Windows Server. I'd like to run these under separate accounts for security reasons.
My options I have so far:
1) Install all Admin servers and managed servers as windows services and set logon appropriately
2) If possible, use multiple node manager instances, one for each domain and set the log on for each node manager windows service
I like the idea of multiple node managers but I can't find any reference in the documentation about this. I'd rather not use option 1 as I won't be able to restart servers from the WebLogic Console
Has anyone had to do this before?

First option might be the cleanest .
For second option make sure that there are separate Node_Manager home directory for different node manager instances.

How well will Windows Server run in a virtual machine on OS X Server?

Does anyone have any experience running any of the flavors of Windows Server in a virtual box (either Parallels or VMware) on OS X Server?
I'm looking at setting up a new server. There are a couple of things for which windows is required. I could set up a separate windows box for these, but I'm wondering if it's feasible to set up Windows Server in a virtual box, and solve my problem that way?
The first requirement is to run an Intuit service for running Quickbooks in a network configuration
The second is a small SQL Server database. My plan is to migrate this to MySql eventually, but that is lower on the priority list.

Since you're on Windows 7 I'd probably go for using VirtualBox
https://www.virtualbox.org/ to host the virtual machine.

Windows server running WCS crashed after update

We installed SP2 and some other updates on our Windows 2003 server that was running our WCS. Has anyone had a problem like this. I do not know what the updates were as I am not admin for that box. I can find out if need be. These would be the most recent updates, though.

We have Winodws Service Pack 2. We have not seen such problems. Probably try to uninstall and reinstall it. Try installing it as a application rather as a apllication.By default it is installed as Service. It might contradict cisco's recommendation but it worked for us. But the only difference is you will have to start the service manaully and have the window minimzed each time you restart the service.

Deleting ._ files appearing on a windows server

In trying to create and then delete some folders on a windows server running server 2003, various ._ files appear. Because the original files were deleted first, I am unable to delete the files on the windows server. I need them deleted. How do I accomplish the task?

Hi Lynette!
You apparently have Macs using a combination of AFP (using the Windows Server's File Services for Macintosh) and SMB (using the Windows Server's Windows file sharing) connecting to your server.
The Network Trash folders are part of the File Services for Macintosh and are in use by the Windows system. You shouldn't delete these yourself unless you know you've disabled File Services for Macintosh.
And while they can be annoying to Windows users, the "._filename" files are useful to your Mac OS X machines connecting to the server using its Windows file sharing. Do you have a specific reason you want to delete these files? If you don't have hidden files showing then how to do you see them and why do you want to delete them?

Using FMLE in windows server

Hi all,
I am now using FMLE to stream live video to FMS. However I only have 1 windows server running FMLE and 2 windows server running FMS. In order to stream 2 video sources, the server runs 2 FMLE and streams to both Primary and backup server.
But I have faced a problem after streaming for a few days, it shows: Incorrect sample given by the device. Stopping encoding session. Which stop streaming to the servers. I have checked that the server become extremely slow. So there are few questions I want to ask:
1. Is it better to run FMLE in a normal PC rather than using a server(Xeon(R) CPU E5-2440, 16GB ram)?
2. Will it lower the performance when running 2 FMLE to stream videos?
Could anyone please give me some advice.
Thank you.

That's exactly what I need - to use the hardware graphics renderer instead of the Microsoft Basic Render Driver as the default adapter in all Remote Desktop Services sessions, but this GPO doesn't work and you even said it's impossible due
to RemoteFX vGPU cannot be used with a Remote
Desktop Session Host (RDSH) or RemoteApp deployment.

Sync PC based Outlook 2010 to OSX server running iCal

I am running OSX Server (10.8x) and I have a couple of users (clients) who use PC's with Outlook 2010 - who also have iPhones. Is it possible, and if so how, to allow them to sync Outlook 2010 with the OSX server so the same calendar is shared across their iOS and Outlook 2010 devices?

Nope.
If the Windows folks are at all using Outlook for even part of what it does, you really need to connect to Windows Server running Exchange Server, possibly SitePoint, and probably not to a Unix mail system (Postfix, Dovecot, etc) running on OS X Server or another Unix or Linux platform. Experienced Outlook users probably won't be very happy with the results with the Unix tools, if you try that. Microsoft really does this business-mail-calendar-AD-integration stuff quite well, but you're buying the full-stack Windows solution to implement all that, or tying into Azure and the Microsoft on-line services.
AFAIK, there's no CalDAV support for Windows with Outlook by default, and various of the add-on CalDAV-capable calendar clients aren't as capable as what Windows provides.
Might also want to check with Microsoft forum, and see if they have specific suggestions for what clients work with CalDAV, too.
iPhones? Sure. They'll work.

Time Machine doesn't work with Windows Server 2008

At work we use a Windows Server running with Windows Server 2008 to backup our work via Time Machine. All my collegues are running Snow Leopard appart from on that runs under Leopard because it's a G5.
A few weeks ago I installed Lion to try it before upgrading all the computer and found that time machine won't work. Apperantly I found that it is due to an AFP connection.
Can anyone tell me if I can do anything apart from trying to use another Backup Software like Data Backup?
Would really like to use Time Machine as it's SUPERB ;-)
Regards

Perhaps that drive is too small to use for Time Machine. Your Time Machine drive needs to be at least twice the size of the drive it is backing up, preferably 3 times.

Opening Excel Workbook Fails when run from Scheduled Task on Windows Server 2008 Rw

Hi,
I have a little vbs script that instantiates the Excel.Application object and then opens a work book to perform some tasks on it. The script runs fine when run from the command line. When I attempt to run it as a scheduled task (it is supposed to update
data that is pulled from a SQL Server at regular intervals), it fails with the following error:
Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file 'c:\test\SampleWorkbook.xlsm'. There are several possible reasons: .....
The file does exist. The path reported in the error is correct. The account under which the task is running is the same account I use to run it from the command line. User Account Control is not enabled, and the task is set up to run with highest privileges.
When I run the same script through the Task Scheduler from a Windows Server 2003 machine, it works without issue.
I was just wondering if somebody on this forum has run into a similar issue in connection with Windows Server 2008 R2 and figured out what the magic trick is to make it work. I'm sure it is rights related, but I haven't quite figured out what which rights
are missing.
Thanks in advance for any advice you may have.

This is truly killing me ... trying to get it working on Windows Server 2012 without success.
I desperately need to automate running Excel macros in a "headless" environment, that is non-interactive, non-GUI, etc.
I can get it to work using Excel.Application COM, either via VBScript or Powershell, successfully on many other Windows systems in our environment - Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 (32-bit), etc., -BUT-
The two servers we built out for running our automation process are Windows Server 2012 (SE) - and it just refuses to run on the 2012 servers - it gives the messages below from VBScript and PowerShell, respectively-
I have tried uninstalling and re-installing several different versions of Microsoft Excel (2007 Standard, 2010 Standard, 2010 Professional Plus, 32-bit vs. 64-bit, etc.), but it makes no difference.
Would be extremely grateful if any one out there has had any success in running Excel automation on Server 2012 in a non-interactive environment that they could share.
( I have tried adding the "%windir%\syswow64\config\systemprofile\desktop"
folder, which did fix the issue for me when testing on Windows Server 2008 R2, but sadly did not resolve it on Windows Server 2012 )

Running oracle database xe (express edition) on windows server 2008 r2

Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?
Database XE is only supported as 32-bit. Current builds of Windows Server 2008 only come in x64 configurations.
Here are the Database XE system requirements for windows:
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm]
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).
See:
- [Wikipedia page about windows server 2008 with info on R2|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Server_2008#Windows_Server_2008_R2]
- [Wikipedia page on "windows 32-bit on windows 64-bit"|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WOW64]
Thanks,
Matt

Hello Matt,
Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?No.
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.So this means that only 32bit versions of 2008 will be supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).Which is probably why 2008 R2 is not supported.
You can either take the VM approach and install a 32 bit Windows or 64 bit Linux host, or you can queue in the list of persons waiting for a 64 bit Windows release. See the following thread for details (and the queue) for the latter: {thread:id=2277728}

Hi Kenneth,
Here for your case suggest you to configure RDP session time limit so that your user can disconnect\log off once the specific time limit reached.
You can setup the session time limit in different method.
1. Open the Server Manager, select Remote Desktop Services.
2. In Remote desktop Services, in right side you can drop down to collections.
3. Select the collection which you want to edit the settings.
4. Under collections Properties, select Task and then Edit Properties.
5. In Properties dialog box, select Session.
6. You can find all thetimeout settings under session collection properties; edit according to your requirements and then OK.
And apart also by group policy setting as below.
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
- Set time limit for disconnected sessions
- Set time limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services sessions
- Set time limit for active Remote Desktop Services sessions
- End session when time limits are reached
Please check which setting suitable for your environment and you can apply for your case.

App cannot run on Windows Server 2012 R2

I have an application that runs well on Windows Server 2012. The application has two editions 32-bit and 64-bit, both are from the same code base.
However, on Windows Server 2102 R2, the x64 version of the application works, but the 32-bit version does not run. Invoking the 32-bit of the application generates the "This app cannot run on you PC" message.
I tried the compatibility troubleshooting, and it does not help.
Any suggestion on what could be the problem?
Thanks.

Windows 8.1 Pro cannot log into RemoteApp running on Windows Server 2012 R2

I have setup a vm running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and have enabled multiple RemoteApps. Everything is setup correctly and I can use RD Web Access to access the portal and connect to the remoteapps from any computer except my own. I am
running Windows 8.1 Pro and when I log into the RD Web Access portal, click on one of the apps, it looks like it's loading the session, but gets stuck on Preparing Windows. Everything else up to that point looks like it loads correctly, (i.e. -
Applying Group Policy Settings, applying desktop, etc...). When I log into my Windows 7 dev machine, I can access and run everything just fine. So there must be something between the Windows 8 and 2012 that isn't working quite right.
I have tried logging into the portal as myself and test users...same result.
any ideas?
Jon Wooten

i think there is something in your GPOs or collection settings causing an issue
this happens with any remote app, built-in stuff like notepad or just third party apps?
try not doing any kind of printer/device redirection from that host
you can also do winlogon logging to get a better idea of what's going on during the logon operation
you can also use the verbose logon messages GPO to get detailed login status info
if all else fails I think you need to isolate it by creating a test collection and test user with the bare minimum options
