OS X Server Updates overwrite tomcat configuration files

I have a tomcat installation running on OS X Server. Whenever I perform a mac software/security update, my /Library/Tomcat/bin/catalina.sh and /Library/Tomcat/conf/server.xml files are both overwritten and restored to the default settings.
This is a huge problem because I have tomcat tuned to run with 4GB of memory and in 64 bit mode. I also have the server.xml tuned for efficient connector pool usage, max connections, etc.
All of my setting are wiped out by the OS update crippling my web apps with the default 64M of memory and such.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks In Advance.

The Question is how to get Apple to fix SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/etc/httpd/getsslpassphrase
Any ideas ?
File a bug report with Apple via its Bug Reporter system. Go to https://connect.apple.com/MemberSite and join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Then, go to https://bugreport.apple.com/
click on the Login to the Apple BugReporter link (using your Apple ID username and password), and file your bug report/enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
BTW, you'd probably get more sympathy posting to the server forums at http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=96

SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 Configuration file path: is empty

I have begun installing SQL 2012 Service Pack 2 on a test system and I go to the page where it is Ready to update. The configuration file path: at the bottom of the screen was empty. Is this normal or will I need to go to the default locations
of Bootstrap to find the configuration file this upgrade is going to use? This is something that is odd as a majority of our current installations is automated using a configuration file and a path for the Upgrade files.
Rick

Hi Rick,
Based on your description, I make a test on my computer. When I go to the ‘Ready to update’ page, I also find that the ‘configuration file path’ box is empty, below is my screenshot. This is a normal phenomenon during the installation of SQL Server Service
Pack.
We don’t need to find the configuration file from SQL Server setup location, just click the Update button to perform the Service Pack installation. After the update process, I install SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 successfully.
Besides, there is also a similar article about installing SQL Server Service Pack for your reference.

RMAN configuration files

If a database server has a catastrophic failure and RMAN was run previously from that same database server are there any configuration files that RMAN would need to rebuild the database from backups stored on tape or is everything that RMAN needs stored in the backup?
TIA,
Dave

If you have the latest controlfile, spfile, full database and archivelog backups taken by RMAN, then no need of any configuration files.
If you use a recovery catalog even the DBID will be stored. So its not need to be remembered. You can get it from the catalog tables. Here is how
select db_id
from db t1, dbinc t2
where t1.db_key=t2.db_key
and t2.db_name = '&1';

How and what to configure in the server configuration files of Tomcat Web ?

Hi,
I am using TCP/IP socket connection pooling in my project. For pooling I have written code, I want once the tomcat webserver starts there should be at least 10 instances of connections to be created in the pool. Could any one please tell me how do I do this in the server configuration files (server.xml or web.xml).
Thanks in Adv.

Take note: the mbaworld.com site has its Tomcat setup/environment poorly configured that the documentation which came along with Tomcat setup became indexed by Google. It has further completely nothing to do with Tomcat itself. Please refer Tomcat's own homepage at [http://tomcat.apache.org] for the documentation.

Error while updating the configuration files (MOB20003)

hi,
After installing the BI 4.0 server, i am trying to configure mobile using mobile server configuration tool. When i enter all the information for non Blackberry option as i would like to access through ipad, its giving me the error message" Error while updating the configuration files (MOB20003)" Please advise.

Hi Somesh,
If i am not wrong, only a war file deployment is needed to make ipad work.
This happens with URL hitting directly on the Server.
If you want to configure VAS and VMS servers, let us know what configuration settings have been done.

How to update content of a file on server using a Java Applet?

Hi,
I'm new to Java, and I have a task now to overwrite a text file on a server using an applet. I have written a piece of code which compiles but doesn't work. Can you please take a look at the code or give me another way to do it?
Thanks.
Code:
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class test2 extends Applet{
public void init() {
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
try {
     String output = "this is some string";
     URL aUrl = new URL (getCodeBase().toString() + "test.txt");
     System.out.println(aUrl);
     URLConnection con = aUrl.openConnection();
     con.setDoOutput(true);
     PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter( new BufferedWriter( new OutputStreamWriter(con.getOutputStream())));
     out.println(output);
     out.close();
catch (MalformedURLException mue) {
     System.out.println("improper url");
     mue.printStackTrace();
catch (IOException e) {
     System.out.println("io exception");
     e.printStackTrace();
}

Thanks. I knew there would be a security issue, but I do not have sufficient knowledge to get around it. If you have a reference how to configure a server please post it here.You need to create Signed Applet. Because normally applets have some restriction to access the files in the client machine. Signed applets overrides the restriction.
To know more, Read [url http://192.9.162.55/developer/onlineTraining/Programming/JDCBook/signed.html]Signed Applet
No. Our OP wants to write to the server, not to the client! And to achieve this from an applet, you don't need it signed, iff the server is the machine from where the applet was downloaded in the first place. You only need to use a mechanism that allows you to write to servers, which HTTP is not. FTP, on the other hand, if setup properly can do it. So instead of trying to write using an HttpURLConnection (OP's attempt), you would use an FTP client library. FTP here is just an example and probably not the best way. Another option is to use some servlet or PHP or ASP on the server side and the applet will sumbmit the changes to that code on the server, which in turn will write to the file. The idea is that you need some 'partner code' on the server, be it the FTP server or the servlet/PHP/ASP code. None of this requires the applet to be signed.

Software Updates Failing - Group Policy Overwritten - Server and Policy NOT CONFIGURED

I have seen a few posts about this issue and group policy overwriting the settings needed by SCCM with the wrong WSUS server. I checked the wuahandlerlog and found this error but it didnt have the server information.
"Group policy settings were overwritten by a higher authority (Domain Controller) to: Server and Policy NOT CONFIGURED"
The only coputer policy that applies to this system does not have WSUS entries in it. Windows update runs ok, and I deleted the WSUS registry keys that were set by a script and reinstall the client still getting the same error. I dont see any GPO local or domain, or reg keys that are setting anything. I have 10 other servers is the same AD container that this is working perfecly on.......
Suggestions????

Check out this GPO:
Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Group Policy:
"Turn off Local Group Policy Objects processing"
The help text:
"This policy setting prevents Local Group Policy Objects (Local GPOs) from being applied.
By default, the policy settings in Local GPOs are applied before any domain-based GPO policy settings. These policy settings can apply to both users and the local computer. You can disable the processing and application of all Local GPOs to ensure that only
domain-based GPOs are applied.
If you enable this policy setting, the system does not process and apply any Local GPOs.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Local GPOs continue to be applied.
Note: For computers joined to a domain, it is strongly recommended that you only configure this policy setting in domain-based GPOs. This policy setting will be ignored on computers that are joined to a workgroup."

How do you configure AME CS5.5 to overwrite existing output files?

How do you configure AME CS5.5 to overwrite existing output files? So far the only options I have found are to increment the output file name or fail. From the explaination of file increment I would have expected overwrite to be the alternative. We work daily with the same file(s) on an hourly basis and convert via watch folder to over a dozen file types and network mapped destinations. Re-using the same file name is critical to the final project (updating website content). Does anyone have any suggestions?

Has there been any updates on overwriting output files in CS6? This would be extremely helpful.

Websites were deleted from configuration after Maverick OSX Server Update

Websites were deleted from configuration after Maverick OSX Server Update. My subversion access was also overwritten and no longer works.

if that was a bug report, then Apple might or might not see it here. There's a Provide Server Feedback in the menus of Server.app, if you'd like to let the Server.app folks know about the upgrade problems I've encountered.
If you're looking for help resetting the web sites (I'm not clear if you're reporting a bug or looking for help with this), then check Server.app for where the files should be (the default location is under /Library/Server/Web/Data directory) and see where your current sites are stored in the file system, establish the Site via Server.app (usually with a directory under the /Library/Server/Web/Data path) and move the contents over to the new location.
As for the Outlook comment in your footer, Microsoft Outlook also generally needs to have the FQDN requirements removed in the SMTP HELO processing. Outlook doesn't send that, and the default Postfix configuration will reject those connections as spam. Here's a discussion of how to do this. (I don't see a path to the HELO processing via sudo serveradmin settings mail:postfix commands.)

While downloading file to application server its overwriting the earlier fi

hi if i am using below code with date time stamp the file is downloaded to the application server correctly and each time i execut eht program a difference file is generated as date time stamp differs each time but
whne i remove the date time stamp ie sy-datum and sy-uzeit as we dont need to display the date time stamp with the file each time i execute the program a file is generated but it overwrites the ealier existing file please suggest as each time it shoul generate a new file....
Concatenate file name sy-datum sy-uzeit '.txt' into v_datetimefile
file on Appplication Server is selected
CALL FUNCTION 'FILE_GET_NAME'
     EXPORTING
            CLIENT                        = SY-MANDT
           logical_filename              = 'ZFILE'

Hi,
first of all decide you have to overwrite the existing file or you want to create the new, i think the answer is there in your query itself, if you want to create new then concatenate the date and time, else don't do that.
below are the additions we can use while opening the data set.
FOR INPUT
FOR OUTPUT
FOR APPENDING
IN BINARY MODE
IN TEXT MODE

Error -32810 occurred at The FieldPoint server initialization failed. Possible causes: 1. Missing or corrupt configuration file; 2. Failed to create callbacks. : FP Open.vi

I have two cFP-2120 RT controller. They both have NI-Serial RT2.5.6, DataSocket for LV RT4.2, NI-VISA 3.6, FP Drivers 5.1.0, FP VI Manager 3.1.0 LV RT 7.1.1 installed. But one same vi can run on one controller but not another.
the error message got when it runs on another controller is "Error -32810 occurred at The FieldPoint server initialization failed. Possible causes: 1. Missing or corrupt configuration file; 2. Failed to create callbacks. : FP Open.vi"
I wonder by what it is caused?
Thanks

Hi Matthew,
As mentioned previously, this KnowledgeBase article may be of some help. Also, if your code is being run on an embedded controller and then a network controller (not embedded), you will need to run the program differently. On the embedded controller, you should deploy your VI in a Project Explorer or programmatically (as described here.) However, you do not need to deploy the program to a network controller, but simply run the VI.
I would also suggest creating a new .IAK file. Do you still see the same error? Also, double-check that the software installed on the controller matches the software installed on the host PC. If you have any file paths associated with one FieldPoint controller, ensure that you are changing them to match the second controller.
Please keep us posted on your troubleshooting steps. Have a great day!

How can I Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection with Server 2012?

I have a working RDS RemoteApp site and looking to test out the feature in Windows 7 Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
I came across this link: Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection and I believe this is what I need to do first, but these instructions are for
Server 2008, and I'm running 2012.
Any suggestions or tips on how I can begin testing this with Server 2012?

Hi,
You can manually enter the path to the 2012 feed and it will connect and download the RemoteApps and Desktop connections.
If you need a sample .wcx file I have posted one here a couple of times. If you want I will look for it and post a link.

I tried adding my URL's below, these are sample links that work for me right now for when I log into the web page, but neither of these work. And I'm not sure what I would need to do with or how to create a .wcx file.
When I type in my URL of: https://connect.mydomain.org/RDWeb, I get redirected to:

When Deploying SSIS Packages to SQL Server using SSMS Import feature, is the package configuration file deployed at the same time?

Hello, everyone,
I have an SSIS package with a XML package configuration file. I deployed it to the sql server using the import feature in SSMS (in Stored Packages, right click MSDB, select Import, select the package to deploy in file system). My question is
Is the XML package configuration file also deployed? If so, which folder is it stored so that I can change the values in it? If not, is setting up the Configuration tab when scheduling a agent job the way to go manually bring the configuration file in?
Your help and information is much appreciated.
Regards

Thank you Arthur for your reply. I appreciate it.
A followup questions:
I used direct setting for the configuration file path on C:\. But it needs to be on D:\ on the remote server. I can't create the D:\ path because I don't have D:\ drive on my computer (I understand I could use indirect setting to change the path in the remote
server. But that's not the concern here).
My question is: since the configuration is not deployed, can I make it up by setting up the Configurations in creating the agent job step? That is, copy the configuration file to the D:\ drive on the remote server, in Configurations tab, add the configuration
file on D:\ to the configuration. Will it work? Will the package still look for the original config file on C:\? and if it doesn't find it there, will it cause any error?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards

How to change web server from inbuilt Tomcat to IIS in already configured Cold Fusion 10

how to change web server from inbuilt Tomcat to IIS in already configured Cold Fusion 10

You just need to run the Web Server Configuration Tool to connect ColdFusion to IIS. It can be found in the ColdFusion program group off of the Start menu. Be sure to run it "As Administrator".

BP &C upgrade to version 7 failing, server configuration file missing.

Anyone,
When I run the version 7 Startup.exe, the only options are to Prepare or Other. I think the server configuration file is missing. Is there a way to create/recreate one without using the insight export feature (that appset is not installed or enabled).
Thanks in advance.

Your flame is not at all helpful. After digging into the problem for a couple hours I was able to discover EXACTLY what had happened.
Thank you
For everyone else, here is what the upgrade has done:
Under the "iTunes\iTunes Music" folder there used to be a "Downloads" folder that was deleted by the 7.0 upgrade.
It looks like this folder was used for the recovery of failed downloads, but the previous versions of iTunes were not managing this folder very well. There were several folders containing just 1 media file. Most of the media files were 0 bytes long, except for the 2 files that I had lost during the upgrade. Apparently, iTunes was using these 2 files. The upgrade to version 7.0 caused this folder to be deleted; thus the links were broken. Anyone else who had a failed download, in particular a video download, may have the same issue.
