Non standard issues - QGM and Retrofit

Quick question to all ALM experts - If we want to use retrofit after transports has been released in maintenance landscape and then if client realized that we need to have project landscape and retroft functionality. Is it feasible ? if yes definitely need manual changes, listing out objects etc?
Also, in QGM if transports are released to QAS and if we do not want to continue with the transports? what alternative options we have like continuing the same transport until PRD and then create new transport to nullify the transport ? or manually tweeking the code and do changes
I know above are not best practises but just want to know your thoughts on this if any.
Any suggestions from your side?
Thanks
Sateesh.

To clarify, you want to see this traffic go to the S170 but do not see any access logs is this correct?
Are you using WCCP? If so, you will need to configure WCCP to redirect port 44444. But with all honesty, for 1 website that uses that port; you might want to consider to just let that traffic out the firewall since the WSA will likely not scan this traffic.

Kvirc from SVN {NON-Standard-Install-Method} and Overcoming 2 Problems

Hello, everyone. Firefishe here.
There are certain programs I like to compile from source code, outside of the normal arch hierarchy of PKGBUILD's. One such program is the Internet Relay Chat client, "KVIRC".
I've been using kvirc for years, and I like to keep it as up-to-date as possible, just like Arch!
This is why I like to use the svn version, so I can update it quickly and uniformly. I like--as a user--to contribute back to the project. (I had one of my bug reports translated into an instant commit by the main project author, himself, once. That made me feel quite good, so it really does help to do a few things like this now and again.
Okay, on to the main topic.
I'm writing this to alleviate a nagging problem that had been plaguing me for months in 2013. Qt5 just wasn't compiling kvirc very well back then. The fact is, the echoing strains of "qt5 is broken in kvirc" from the #kvirc channel on Freenode, resounded soundly throughout that entire year. Qt5 was still a bit buggy, and not all the libraries (32bit or 64bit) were quite finished.
Move forward to (now) July, 2014! I have now compiled kvirc successfully on my 64bit (with 32bit multilib installation) laptop, and kvirc is purring away with a current svn build of kvirc.
However, I ran into some issues, which I would like to share with you, below:
I usually go about compiling kvirc from svn like this: (I usually start from my /home/userNameHere directory.)
{arch@homedir}$ svn co https://svn.kvirc.de/svn/trunk/kvirc
{arch@homedir}$ cd kvirc
{arch@homedir}$ mkdir release
{arch@homedir}$ cd release
{arch@homedir}$ ccmake ..
[At this point, the 'ccmake ..' command invokes cmake-gui, an ncurses-like graphical user interface, with a list of menu items pertaining to various libraries and flags that can be set. cmake-gui makes selecting these flags and libraries quite easy, and also gives a clear indication of what directories may not have been found (which will be discussed a bit later.) ]
Press the 'C' Letter Key -- (This runs the Configure Routine. I sometimes do this twice, just to be sure it configured properly. I've had it miss a few times for unknown reasons.)
Press the 'G' Letter Key -- This 'Generates' Cmake files.
After the 'G' command, the system takes you back to the command prompt.
{arch@homedir}$ make ***WAIT A WHILE, COULD TAKE A BIT LONGER ON SLOWER SYSTEMS!***
{arch@homedir}$ sudo make install (Or 'su -' to root, then do 'make install'; your preference. I prefer using sudo.)
{arch@homedir}$ sudo ldconfig (Or 'ldconfig' if still at root prompt #)
{arch@homedir}$ kvirc (or 'kvirc &' if you don't want the terminal window to hold onto the process.)
Kvirc should run at this point, but I ran into a couple of problems. Once during the ccmake configuration (which prevented ccmake from configuring), and at the end, which prevented kvirc from running.)
The first had to do with two (2) packages that were not installed. The were, as follows:
qt5-webkit
qt5-multimedia
I installed those files, then did the 'ccmake ..' portion. That ran fine, as well as the 'make' and 'sudo make install' and 'sudo ldconfig' parts.
What didn't work was when I tried to run kvirc. I got the following error:
{arch@homedirc}$ kvirc
kvirc: error while loading shared libraries: libkvilib.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I remember, back when kvirc was wanting Qt4, and not Qt5, that if I didn't do the first 'sudo ldconfig' command before trying to run kvirc, it would give something similar. However, since this compile run was wanting Qt5, and not qt4, I was puzzled.
Well, it turned out to be something quite simple. This is a non-standard process of software installation on a new(er) arch system. The 'uname -r' command on my system yields the following: 3.15.4-1-ARCH . It is no surprise, then, that at this late date, Qt5 is complete (or at least more complete) than back in 2013 when I had the original problems, and had to select the 'WANTS-QT4' section during the 'ccmake ..' command.
**** Building kvirc this way places the kvirc binary in /usr/local/bin, and a certain 'libkvilib.so.4' library in /usr/local/lib ****.
This is to be expected from a standard source compile on most gnu/linux systems; and this *is* a standard compile, even though we're using the 'ccmake ..' command to do the preliminary configuration and cmakefile generation.)
The problem is, is that Arch is looking for libkvilib.so.4 in /usr/lib, and not /usr/local/lib. So the following was, for me, the solution that got everything squared away:
I made a symlink in /usr/lib to /usr/local/lib/libkvilib.so.4, like this:
{arch@homedir}$ cd /usr/lib
{arch@homedir}$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libkvilib.so.4 libkvilib.so.4
After doing this, I did:
{arch@homedir}$ kvirc (or kvirc &)
And It Ran Beautifully! :-)
I hope you've enjoyed this HOWTO. I know most people may just want to use the 4.2.x version of kvirc, currently residing safely in the standard repositories. However, if you're like me, and want a bit of bleeding edge, Qt5 goodness with kvirc, I might suggest doing the above!
I can be reached at firefishe At gmail DOT com if anyone has any questions.

Hi Dareen,
Looking at the information shared and also the error message ( Update Failed,Updates could not be applied.Please contact your Administrator if you wish to apply updates on your machine. Updates have been suppressed by the Administrator.If the problems persist, contact customer support for further assistance" ),
It suggests that the updates were to be managed by the Admin only. Lets try the following step and suggest if this was able to resolve the concern that you have or not.
1) Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0 and you will find a .dat file ( AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat).
2) Please open the file in question and you will find a line item : <Suppressed>1</Suppressed> .
3) Please change the Value from 1 to 0 and save the file back in the same location.
post the above step, try the installation once again and share the end result please.
Cheers,

Email non standard ports

Most organizations now use non-standard email ports, and I cannot find a way to set this up on the iphone. Is that not an option or am I missing something?

inco9nito,
First, activesync is a Microsoft proprietary format for use with Exchange servers, and I think Hotmail as well. It would not help with the Yahoo issue you are experiencing.
You will not get the sound until the iPhone has received indication from the mail server that the mail server has received it. This would be your outgoing server, and not the destination server. In your example it is smtp.att.yahoo.com:465.
If it is not arriving at its destination, it is likely something to do with the server. I have often seen messages delayed or held up by mail servers that inadvertently identify the messages as spam. Apple does not have control over what the SMTP server does with the message once it has been handed off to the SMTP server.
To use analogy. If your iPhone is your mailbox at the street, once the mailman picks up your outgoing message, and puts the flag down, nothing to do with that mailbox will affect whether or not that message gets lost. In this case your SMTP server is the mailman. If the mailbox was damaged, and the mailman couldn't get the letters out of it, then he would leave the flag up on it, and not acknowledge picking up the letters.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

I thought FCP X 10.1.1 could handle non-standard frame sizes?

Yesterday I was demonstrating FCP X 10.1.1 to a friend.
As time was limited I imported the nearest piece of video I could find, which happened to be part of an H.264 video tutorial with a frame size of 960 x 600 and a frame rate of 30fps.
I hit the E key to send it to the timeline only to receive the old "not recognised" error message as shown below.
I thought I may have created the project incorrectly but when I repeated with a new project I double-checked that I had selected "Set based on first video clip".
I thought that FCP X 10.1.1 would automatically recognise a non-standard frame size and simply create an appropriate project.
I was too busy doing the demo to investigate at the time but later I discovered that there was no problem creating a 960 x 600 custom project manually.
It's a pity FCPX is not clever enough to do it automatically ............ or can it?

Thanks Tom, you clarified it ....... or at least something clicked in my brain.
I was trying to set "Custom" when I created the new project.
I didn't know, or had forgotten, that in the "error" window I could select "Custom".
All is now well and FCP X 10.1.1 is pretty clever after all!
There is one weird thing I'd like to mention.
When I clicked on "Custom" the 960 x 600 frame dimensions appeared but the frame rate was listed as 23.98p as shown in the screenshot below.
So what's wrong with that?
Well the clip is 30p and I naturally thought I was going to end up with a project with an incorrect frame rate.
Now here's the funny thing ......... when I selected the project and viewed it in the Inspector it was the correct 30p
So why was I given that worrying piece of misinformation.

Standard and Non-standard exports and queries issue

Hi,
We have created a few STANDARD books with standard exports in them. The standard exports use standard queries.
The ISSUE is that in the Verifications/Filters tab, where we have put in a lot of queries - ONLY the STANDARD queries show up. We would like to have all the queries show up. I am the adminsitrator and still only the standard ones show up.
I am worried that if I "Save As" the export as a non-standard export, it does not allow me to uncheck the standard tick column and save it but I have to manually change the name of the export. Can we change this in anyway?
Is there a system preference where I can allow all the queries to show up in the verifications/filter tab at least for the admnistrators if not for all? Thanks
- Ad

Thanks for your input but DRM does seem to be behaving what you said or may be I am still missing something here.
I created a standard query.
I have a standard export.
Now, in the verification/filter tab of my Standard export, I am able to see my standard queries.
But,
I am unable to see the Non-Standard Queries.
HOWEVER,
If I have a Non-Standard export --> I am able to ALL the queries. This makes it a lot more flexible in doing things.
My question is the WHY are my standard exports not able to reach the non-standard queries. What I wanted to do a twist in my export for analysis purposes for a particular use. If non-standard exports have access to Standard and Non-Standard queries --> it just makes more sense to always use a non-standard export and create non-standard queries.

In FireFox 9, loading secure web pages running on non-standard ports works just fine. In FireFox 10, those same pages do not load and a "The connection was reset" message is displayed.

How can this be fixed so functionality returns as per FF9 and below?
This occurs on any secured website running on a non-standard port, with FF10.

< X-Post from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/917315#answer-315144 >
I don't think this is restricted to Firefox. I've noted this behaviour with IE9, Firefox 10.0.2, Opera Mobile (on my phone) and Chrome(latest version) with my Linksys E3000 router (I access it from https://<IP>) and my 3ware RAID card management suite, 3DM2 (I access it from https://localhost:888 ).
Notably, the only thing amiss that I've been able to see in the certificates (I'm no expert) is that the one from Linksys has issue and expiry dates in 1969 and 1970 respectively. However, I don't think this is the cause since 3DM2 has proper looking issue dates and has the identical problem.
Coincidentally, I noticed this happening after a fresh reinstall of Windows 7 x64 with virtually nothing installed on it (FF, Office 2007), so I don't think it's something wrong with the other software on the machine.

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems! I am paying monthly for this service and it is constantly failing in some way! So far in three months I have had to uninstall and re-install Photoshop THREE times because it stopped working properly and Illustrator I have had to do that same to TWICE! That isn't including the other apps that have had issues! I don't have the time to constantly be un-installing and re-installing all or some of the Creative Cloud because your developers are not making a product that works consistently for the money you are charging! It is costing me more than just this monthly fee! And I am even less impressed with the fact that I cannot email someone for assistance in resolving these issues. Really Adobe?

How To: Use FCPX to create iPhone Portrait Movies (and other non-standard formats)

Goal: Use Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7 to produce a 640x1136 video (iPhone 5 Portrait). You can use these same steps to produce virtually any dimensions you want. My example is for the iPhone 5, in Portrait mode.
This information is available in various places, but you have to realy work to find it, so I thought I'd post a step-by-step guide here.
By the way, you might think you could just create a FCPX Project with your desired dimensions, but you can't (at least with 10.0.7). Projects only support certainly dimensions. But there are other ways, as the rest of this post describes:
1) Create an initial movie with the desired dimensions, to serve as a template. We'll call it "Template.mov". The only thing that matters is the dimensions. It can be in any codec FCPX understands, and virtually any length.
I'm using a 2 second video shot on my iPhone for the template. You could also create a blank image (.png, whatever) with the proper dimensions, copy and paste it into a new Quick Time Pro 7 window, and Export it using custom settings. There's lots of different ways to do this.
2) Drop Template.mov into a FCPX event.
3) Select Template.mov in the Event browser, and select File->Duplicate (or command-D). You probably could just edit "Template.mov", but it's a good idea to save it for reuse.
3) Change the name of the copied video. I'm using "iPhone Video".
4) Right-click "iPhone Video" and select "Open in Timeline".
5) If you made the Template video from a still image, you may need to change the duration (ctrl+D). You don't have to make it very long, but it needs to be longer than 1 frame. A few seconds should be enough.
6) Use this timeline like you'd use a project's timeline. Drop in new content, trim, transition, etc. There may be things you can't do in it, but I haven't found any yet. I'm guessing Chapters may not work, but I haven't tried them.
7) Note that when you drop new content into the timeline, it may size funny. That's because the default setting for "Spacial Conform" is "Fit". Simply select the newly-dropped content, and in the Video settings inspector, scroll down to "Spacial Conform" and change it. You could use "Fill", which fills the frame vertically, or "None", which uses the source's original height. Then crop/transform/whatever to get what you want.
8) When you're ready to render, select "iPhone Video" in the Event browser, then use the "Share" button. You want to use the "Export File" destination, which you may have to add. Pick your codec, and let 'er rip.
9) When the rendering is done, you should have a video in your desired dimensions.
That's all there is to it. Hope this helps someone.

PS: Don't ask why someone would want to create an iPod video using FCPX. The point is that you may need to create a video with non-standard dimensions at some point in time, and this is how to do it.
PPS: Most of this information came from http://library.creativecow.net/articles/payton_t/FCPX_Custom-Resolution-Timeline s/video-tutorial. I just wrote it down, while I tried to do what the video suggested.

Instructions for using QuickTime Pro 7 to create a template video with unusual dimensions.
I suspect that anyone savy enough to be using FCPX has probably already figured out how to do this, either using my technique or another, so there probably isn't a real need for me to post this. For that matter, I may be the only person who cares about this at all. However, while I was trying to learn how to do all of this, I would have really appreciated having all the information in one place, so here goes.
If you want to create a video with unusual dimensions (like 640x1136) using my steps above, you'll need a "template" video first. Here's an easy way to create one, using any image editor, and QuickTime Pro 7.
1) Open QuickTime Pro 7 (QTP for short).
2) From the menu, select File->New Player. You'll get a window with just the bottom portion of the player, i.e. the playback controls.
3) Using an image editor, create a still image in the desired dimensions. You can use any image editor. It doesn't matter what the image contains (although it will end up showing as a thumbnail in FCPX).
4) Copy the image to the clipboard.
5) Switch back to QTP, and paste the image into the new player. Don't worry that there isn't a video window showing - just paste it into the window that has only playback controls. As soon as you do, the video window appears.
6) Advance to the end of the movie (the short, 1-frame movie), then hold down Command+V (paste) and keep holding it down to paste multiple images in. Watch the time advance. You could, if you want, just hold down Command+V until you get the length you want. But if you want a long video, there's an easier way:
7) When you reach a few seconds (or whatever duration your patience allows), select all (Command+A) and copy (Command+C). Then hold down Command+V to keep pasting in the longer clips. Wait until you reach a longer duration, then repeat the process. So, for example, 1 second, then 10 seconds, then 1 minute, then 10 minutes, then 1 hour. Or whatever you want.
8) Save the video however you want. I usually use File->Export with H.264, with Quality set to "Least". Just make sure you don't let it change the dimensions. If you resized the player window, depending on which "save" or "export" method you've chosen, it might default to the resized dimensions, so double check that to make sure.
That's it. You now have a template video you can use with my previous post(s).

AV output and non-standard frame sizes

I usually work in non-standard frame size for my FCP projects because my final output will be in a 2:35:1 ratio. I use a Blackmagic Ultrastudio Mini Monitor as an HDMI output to a client monitor. Up until a few months ago the AV output of FCPX would allow the Mini Monitor to accept a frame size of 1920x818 and letterbox the output to 16x9 on this consumer grade LCD. One day, this just stopped working... I've reached out to Blackmagic and they have no solution or reason why this happened, and are not willing to offer support since what I was achieving wasn't an "officially supported" feature. Now, the AV output will distort the image vertically to fill a 16x9 frame. At this point I am stuck having to use either a matte layer or a widescreen effect on individual clips to output correctly to my monitor which increases edit time having to re-render any edits underneath the matte and having to re-order the letterbox effect after apply color correction etc. It was also very easy to adjust the frame offset with this wide angle project size.
Is anyone editing in 2:35:1 (or other cinema standard) projects and getting successful conversion on output? What are you using?
Cheers,
Matt

Really unusual and non-standard situation with Apple ID...

Hi everyone!
My name is Roman and I'm form Kyiv (Ukraine).
I will really appreciate any ideas concerning possible solve of mentioned below situation:
My wife is using iPhone 5 and the day before yesterday she made an software update to ios 8.0.2.
Everything went fine... and after activation system asked for the appleid and password. The problem is my wife forgot the password and asked me to solve this issue. Later on i went to "iforgot" and asked to sent the 'reset" on her e-mail, but this e-mail is [email protected] (system sends the recovery link on the mailbox where i need to access). Paradox. Moving on I've tried to find out what was the alternative e-mail and checked all our possible mailboxes and did not find any mention of the appleid. Finally, I've decided to reset the password with the security questions. And another shot is on the first step (indicate birthday) none of our family birthdays are suitable At the very end we've called to the apple support center and tried to manage this mass with the operator. Unfortunately we did not indicate the credit card details while icloud account creation. Last chance is the security questions since as we found out there some unusual stuff with the alternative e-mail (as we been told). We had to answer two of security questions. (It is not a problem). But, when we call to nearest apple client service (in Moscow) (we wait for 20 - 25 minutes) and than operator kindly asks to provide answers and spell those. (And if you do at least one mistake or misunderstanding in spelling of any word you have to call back in eight hours and try again). As far as we saw, from Ukraine spelling might differ somehow via land-line talk.
I understand that the security is a high priority always and respect this.
Please let me know if there and chance to provide all the information somewhere (f.e. serial number, id scan, family photos, all known details, etc.) to solve this issue?
P.S. If there is no solution, than I'll probably have to buy the new iPhone to my wife

Did you contact Apple via iTunes Store Support: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
Other posters here have reported prompt responses with similar issues. And, no, your apps are attached to the account under which you purchased them, so creating a new account will not work.

How to solve sync problem between Outlook calendar and iPhone when reminder is set to _some_ non-standard values?

Hi,
I am having a sync problem between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook calendar events (Outlook 2010).
Here is the description of the problem:
1. In Outlook - please create a new event/appointment (e.g. "Test").
2. Reminder is set by default to 15 minutes. You can change it by using a dropdown menu - please select: "0,5 days".
3. Click on "0,5 days" and change it manually to "14,5 days".
4. Click on "Save & Close".
5. (Do not snooze or dismiss the reminder.)
6. Sync with your iPhone/iPad.
7. Open this new event on iPhone/iPad - you can see that alert is set to "15 minutes before" instead to a correct value that was set in Outlook.
The same problem can be seen if you set the reminder to e.g. "3 weeks" (standard value is "2 weeks").
However, it is interesting that non-standard values like "1,5 days" (and all other until "13,5 days") are synced without any problem.
Does anyone have a solution how to solve this problem (different than the trivial solution of not using those strange values)?
Thanks!

Thanks to another post (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17501071#17501071) I reset the sync history, here is what to do:
Launch iTunes.
Before you hook up your iPhone to the PC and iTunes do this: Go to iTunes Edit menu > Preferences… > select the iPhone > click the Reset Synch History button > click OK.
Connect the iPhone to the PC and let iTunes recognize it.
In the top right corner is the iPhone icon, click on the left side of the iPhone icon > the iPhone menu launches.
In the menu along the top click on Info > make your selections > click Sync button > it gives you a dialog at the top with the steps it’s going through during the sync.
In the top left of the iTunes app > click Exit.

Making custom non-standard components aware of custom look and feels.

Hello all.
Maybe the subject of this post could also be the opposite: "Making custom look and feels aware of non-standard custom components". I'm not sure.
If I code a new custom component (extending JComponent, or extending the UI delegate of a standard component) and pretend it to be laf aware then I must create the corresponding UI delegate for each laf, like it happens to be with standard swing components. But I'm not sure it is feasible to create the UI delegates for all unknown existing custom lafs.
On the other side, if I create a custom laf then I will also create a custom UI delegate for each standard component, but I can not create UI delegate for all unknown existing custom components.
The point here is that standard components and standard lafs are universally known, while custom components (or custom ui delegates) and custom lafs are not.
So the question is: How does a swing developer deal with the case of a new custom component that will be used in an unknown custom laf?
For instance:
1. Custom text UI delegate for dealing with styled documents in JTextField. See {thread:id=2284487}.
2. JTabbedPane with custom UI delegate that paints no tab if the component only contains one tab.
In both cases I need a UI delegate for each known laf, but what happens if the application is using a laf that certainly will not be aware of this custom functionally?
Thank you!

I suggest if you want to make your custom component look & feel aware, you design the way it displays around the l & f of other components that are part of j2se and have l&f implementations.

Can I use a PCI-1424 with a non-standard camera and build my own camera file?

I want to test a certain CCD which in non-standard and I want to setup the direct interface with it. My idea is to use a 1424 board and build the camera file.

Technically, you can build your own cable and ICD (configuration) file for your camera. It can be very difficult, though. If the CCD is fairly standard, NI might be willing to create a basic ICD file for you which you can modify to do what you want. The best way to figure out what can be done in an ICD file is to look at ICD files for other cameras.

Subtitles for 9x16 and other non-standard aspect ratios?

We're producing several videos for a museum which will be shown on a vertical screen. We shot with our camera turned 90 degrees on its side, are editing that way and will create the DVD/MPEG4s that way. When they are shown the display will also be rotated. So far, so good.
I am told that we can also rotate subtitle placement 90 degrees as well, but cannot find how to do this. I have seen it done in other presentations as well.
How can I get the subtitles to run along the narrow side of our display?
Thanks,

The templates my have a few variations that use non-standard ratios, but you can specify any photo box ratio. You have the option to either right click and choose it from a list, or choose the custom option from that pull list, or use the "Size & Position" pane of the Aperture UI to specify an exact size, angle, and border thickness and color of a photobox. This works similar to the controls in Pages, but without some of the nice effects like transparency and drop shadows.
If you want to create custom layouts, read the "Working with Custom Themes" section on page 609 of the user manual (download it with the trial). The trial is good for 30 days, so why not give it a spin, and if you don't think it's worth the $199, then you can always delete it at no cost to you other than your time.
