OT - Non-Existent Watch List Spewing Tons of Email

Sorry for the off topic post here, but you guys need to put some other mechanism in place for contact regarding Forum problems. There's NO contact information for this type of action, and I think there should be a link directly in all posted emails from the Forums. This would save alot of trouble and time when issues come up. My two cents.
Now, I am getting CLOBBERED with tons of email notices from a Watch List that I initially created, but then subsequently deleted. However, the emails they keep on coming...and coming...and coming. They're like the friggin' Energizer Bunny. I don't have ANY Watch Lists at this moment and I'm STILL GETTING MESSAGES. Somebody PLEASE pull the plug. This is obviously a bug in the Watch List code, and there's no one listed to obtain help for this kind of issue - hence my post here.
Please advise and/or fix as I'm tired of deleting mondo amounts of messages every day. This is truly beyond ridiculous.
Many thanks...

This is the first we've heard of such a problem, so there's something affecting your situation that doesn't seem to affect others. How long has this been happening? Please forward a couple of examples to me offline. Click the "Author" link on this posting to see my profile info with email address.

Non existent calenders listed in iTunes

I want to sync my calendar to my iPhone and all it working well except that I have multiple calendars listed in iTunes for sync that do not exist. They aren't causing any problems, but I would rather they not even be listed. Can anybody tell me how to delete them as they are not listed in iCal?
Also, I have one calendar in iCal called "Work", but for some reason the calendar "Work" is listed three times in iTunes as being available for sync to my iPhone. How do I make it so that the "Work" calendar is only listed once in iTunes just as it is only listed once in iCal?
Again, none of this is causing any problems with syncing to my iPhone at the moment, but I want to make sure it doesn't in the future by removing these invalid calendars.
Thanks.

Non-existent uid show as members of group

I'm thinking this might be a manual process, but I'll pose the question anyway.
I have a GroupOfNames - cn=group, ou=mygroups, dc=mydomain, dc=com
This group has many uniqueMembers and is forever changing - additions, deletions happen every day.
My question is: When I delete a user account from the LDAP, there is really nothing within that record to indicate that the user is a member of a group. So, I could have potentially hundreds of non-existent users listed as members of a group, with no way other than a manual process to go in and clean things up.
Is this the dumbest question of all time? or do I have a valid concern?
TIA

Your concern is quite valid and this plugin handles it for you. Play with it on a test instance and make sure the indexes are done correctly as it causes a lot of problems if misconfigured.

I keep getting calls from non existing area codes and phone numbers. They are never the same number twice. How do I stop this?

About a week ago I started getting phone calls on my cell phone from numbers that do not exist, including the area codes. I can not report these to the Do Not Call list because the area code is non existent. I'm getting these calls all the time now and never from the same number twice so there's no point in blocking them. If I answer I may or may not get a person who has an accent from India so heavy that I can't understand what they are saying. This is getting to the point where I just want to cry I'm so frustrated. Anyone else having this issue or does anyone know how to stop it?
Thank you

I'm sorry that you are having all these troubles. I have sent you a private message.

InDesign CS6: preflight & non-existent overset text in my document.

Hi,
I’m using InDesign CS6. The preflight lists overset errors. When I click on the page icon and go to where the overset txt is supposed to be…there is none.
I deleted EVERYTHING in the entire document, then did a SAVE-AS a new name; restarted InDesign; opened the empty document...and it still says I have overset text. I’ve had this issue before with other documents and just ignored the errors after hours of trying to fix the non-existent overset text - but other people have to use my documents. Having errors is an issue with shared documents. I started a chat with an adobe tech support person, but they had no idea what the problem is. Is this a bug? More importantly, is there a fix?
any help much appreciated.
regards,
m

I have a document with a similar issue. I just opened it just to check. When I click on the overset and click somewhere else, I get an empty text frame. I guess that's what happens to you as well. I turned on Show Hidden Characters and noticed that somehow I had at the bottom of the page a paragraph sign (probably I hit enter at the end without noticing it). I just deleted it and now is fine. Turn on the Show Hidden Characters and see if something shows up at the end of your document.

How to create a Watch List using JSF

I'd like to build a HTML UI which includes the toggling of items from a watch list. For example, stocks or system alerts which are important to the user. First of all are there any JSF example which demonstrate this type of application? What is the best approach for building such an interface so that individual lines can be added and removed from the watch list and the view mode can be toggled from watch list only items to all items?
I've looked at the data repeater component example and tried to make that work for this purpose but I'm struggling with some of the details and wondering if the approach taken is good or if there is a better approach. Basically what I have is a List of line items held in a managed bean class. This List is associated to my repeater's value tag. The managed bean also has a UIData element and a UISelectBoolean with the former associated to the repeater's binding and the latter associated to a invisible selectboolean_checkbox (rendered="false").
As the user presses an "Add" watchlist button with an action of toggleWatch the UISelectedBoolean.setSelected (onWatchList) is toggled between true and false for the current UIData.getRowIndex(). However, in tracing the code with a debugger, I see as the component tree is rendered that suddenly all UIData rows appear to have their onWatchList.isSelected() toggled to the new value.
Additionally, when I toggle between the view modes of show watchlist and show all my method to determine what gets rendered doesn't appear to have any effect. This is, when pressing the Show Watch button, the viewType is set to "watch" and then a setRendered method is called to setRendered() for each UIData row as follows. Again, this appears to have no effect.
public void setRendered()
for (int i=0; i< myList.size(); i++)
data.setRowIndex(i);
if ( viewType.equals("watch") && !onWatchList.isSelected() ) <-UISelectBoolean type
data.setRendered(false);
else if ( viewType.equals("raised") && !raised.isSelected() )
data.setRendered(false);
else
data.setRendered(true);
Am I making this too hard or am I just missing something minor???

Upon further debugging it looks like the current issues may be caused by only one onWatchList (UISelectBoolean) existing instead of one for each row in the UIData group. So, what builds the association here? In the RepeaterBean example class the checked UISelectBoolean is simply declared as a instance variable but is never associated to the UIData. How are these glued together?
Of course, I'm still wondering if the is a much better / easier way to get the same results...

Strange behavior in watch list

I'm getting a behavior in the watch list that I can't explain. While examining an object in the watch list, its value collumn reads "'VariableName' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level." This is from a break
point after it has been declared and initialized. For example:
Dim a As New List()
-- break point here ----
At first I though there was a problem with my custom objects but I get the same thing with any and all framework objects. It does not do this with value objects but if the value objects are declared after the class objects I get the same error. I tried
rebooting and I can't get it back to its normal behavior. Could this be a VS2010 bug?

Today I got the error again even after removing the Linq references. So it may not have anything to do with that. This time I declared a variable like this:
Dim item as List(Of MyTestClass)
When I later used the variable I got the error again. I kept playing around with it when I tried this:
Dim [item] as List(Of MyTestClass)
Now the error went away as long as I referred to this variable with [] everywhere. Then I tried it with a different variable name without the [] and it worked fine. Then on a whim I tried "item" again without the []. This time I could not
get the error anymore. The previous compile had fixed it somehow even though I now had the exact same code that failed previously.
So something seems to trigger it intermitently but I have not clue how to reproduce it now.
Here is another clue. I have a big project (around 10,000 lines of code) targeted for .NET v3.5. When I change the target to .NET v4.0. I get a ton of errors (max number that VS can show) for every variable in my project. "'VariableName' is not declared.
It may be inaccessible due to its protection level." When I go back to v3.5 all errors go away.
I'm starting to wonder if it has to do with the combination of DLL references that I am using. Maybe there is a namespace resolution problem that VS2010 seems to be getting confused when reflecting.

AppleScript - Writing to non-existent directories, and non-existent files..

All,
AppleScript - Writing to non-existent directories, and non-existent files...
Creating directories several levels deep on the fly.
How do we write to a file that does not exist, buried deep down in a hierarchy of directories that don't exist either...
In trying to do this I explored two options. One used AppleScript, assisted by UNIX, which was simplicity itself, the other one used only AppleScript and was considerably more complex, and slower.

Non-existent address!

I had a bunch of ringtones, which I've been using with no problems for a couple months...recopied them into my phone during a reorganization, and all of a sudden I'm now getting the error message about how the music files are protected content and can't be used as ringtones, which is weird because I have identical duplicates (I just pasted two copies in separate folders) in a different folder, and there's no problem in using that as the ringtone.
Anyways, on to the real problem. When I checked the file properties for the "protected" files, it told me that these files were stored in a Music folder that was directly under the Device root. All files stored in the built-in memory have the file path Device > user > whatever, because user is literally the only item directly under Device. These protected files, however, are stored at Device > Music, which is weird because as far as I can tell, said address does not exist.
What exactly is going on? This isn't affecting performance on my BlackBerry so it's not really much of a big deal, but I'd like to know exactly how the music is ending up at a non-existent file address, and how I can delete it, since it's quite annoying to go through a list of duplicates every time I want to set a ringtone.
Thanks

[SOLVED] Grub crash: seeking non-existent device

A couple days ago, I did a successful fresh install on another computer. Today, I took my hdd from my old system and added it as a slave on IDE1. I didn't move or make any changes to /dev/sda (arch hdd) and BIOS successfully recognized the second hdd.
Then when I boot, Grub complains:
error: no such device: [some UUID]
grub rescue>
At this point, I'm assuming it must by the UUID of my first hdd and for some reason, it can't find it anymore.
I should mention here that when I partitioned /dev/sda during installation, I used GPT, not MFT. Since this computer is an older Dell that I'm resurrecting with Arch, it has an older BIOS, which means that gdisk had to create a very small bios-boot partition to make it somehow compatible with the BIOS. I mention it because I'm not sure if that plays into any of this.
Next, I boot the arch-install iso "ARCH_201310" off my keydrive, then blkid to see the UUIDs of both hard drives...nothing matches the UUID that grub complains about. Then I go into gdisk and check all the UUIDs for disks, partitions...find nothing that matches. I check my grub.cfg and it's not in there either. Just out of curiosity, I regenerated my grub config and reinstalled grub (after arch-chroot, of course) and then rebooted. Got the exact same message! I'm totally at a loss now. I have no idea what's going on. I'm hoping the forum can help...so I don't have to go through the hassle of doing a fresh install all over again. If it makes any difference...here's some output from the grub shell...I tried ls everything listed, but it couldn't find any filesystems.
grub rescue> ls
grub rescue> (hd0) (hd0,msdos4) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd2) (hd2,msdos2) (fd0)
Not even sure why it listed (fd0) since I removed the floppy drive and turned it off in BIOS
Last edited by bpont (2013-10-26 07:31:23)

So just for the sake of completeness, in case anyone in the future has a similar issue and stumbles across this thread:
The reason grub was giving an error about a non-existent device with a UUID which didn't belong to any of my current devices or partitions was because it had belonged to a previous installation on the same drive...one whose /boot was on the primary hdd of my previous computer. I think I may have also mistakenly installed grub on the second hdd at that time, instead of on the primary one...so long story short, there were some artefacts on the MBR of the second hdd which grub was finding and complaining about.
There were two possible solutions to resolving the boot failure: chrooting to my arch partition and re-installing grub, first on the second hdd, and then on the primary hdd; or the second option of removing the 55AA signature on the second hdd with a hex editor. After choosing the simpler option of reinstalling grub on both hard drives, I then switched my second hdd back on in BIOS and rebooted normally.

Unity connection 8.5 location requesting non existing dependent during replication

Hi,
We have 2 cluster of Unity connection 8.5 both in HA (4 servers total). One cluster in city A et the other cluster in city B. Last week, replication between both clusters broke after the creation of a user on cluster A that had duplicated entries/conflicts in cluster B. We deleted the user from cluster A to bring the replication back, but the user never got deleted from cluster B. We went ahead and manually pushed the DB from A to B, problem solved, the user disappeared from Cluster B.
Here is where it gets interesting, since that event, Cluster B requests every 40 minutes or so that Cluster A provides information on a dependant object. A delay is present in the response from Cluster A, and a CUReplicator error shows up in RTMT with an PKID object number. That dependant object was traced back to be the EndUser PKID of the problematic user mentioned above. As you may guess, that user is nonexistent, we erased it. I queried the enduser table in the hope of finding a loose end, nothing on all clusters. I queried in the distribution list tables on Cluster B, thinking that the user may have been a member of a Cluster B distribution list,,,no luck.
So anybody has any idea how I can track a non existing dependence and stop Cluster B from asking for it?

Exchange 2007 when sending a calendar invite, a non-existent delegate shows up in an undeliverable message

I had a test user that was removed. When it was removed, it was still listed as a delegate on someone's email. Now, whenever a Calendar invite is sent to the existing user, the sender receives an undeliverable message. The existing user does not receive
notification of a calendar event, but the event does show up in the calendar.

Hi,
If the delegate user account or mailbox has been removed from domain or Exchange server, please also remove the delegate settings with this account.
If a user is set as a delegate for a manager, the meeting request which is send to the Manager would be forwarded to the delegate automatically and ask for approving in the delegate side.
Please do the following steps in the Manager’s Outlook client to remove the delegate settings for this non-existent delegate:
1. Open the Manager’s Outlook.
2. Click File > Account Settings > Delegate Access.
3. In the Delegate list, click the non-existent delegate, click Remove.
4. Click OK to save the settings.
Then check whether the issue persists.

Synonyms pointing to non existing objects

Hi,
How to find out the public/private synonyms pointing to the non existing objects.
Let us say, we have created synonyms for a few tables, 1 year back. A few days later, we have dropped the tables.
How to get the list of synonyms which do not have the base tables.
All replies are welcome
Thanks
DRK

Probably, you will still be having the list of dropped tables. To identify all the synonyms for the dropped tables we can query:
select * from user_synonyms where table_name in ('A', 'B', ....);
Once I identified you can drop these synonyms.
Alternatively, if you do not have the list of tables then (assuming you are on 10g), you could do something like this:
1) Identify all the synonyms with INVALID state and try to query/execute them.
2) Drop the one's which still remain INVALID (make sure they are referring the dropped tables)
SQL> create table t (a number);
Table created.
SQL> create synonym st for t;
Synonym created.
SQL> select object_name, status from user_objects where object_name = 'ST';
OBJECT_NAME     STATUS
ST              VALID
SQL>

SQL>
SQL> drop table t purge;
Table dropped.
SQL> select object_name, status from user_objects where object_name = 'ST';
OBJECT_NAME     STATUS
ST              INVALID
SQL>Synonyms could still remain in INVALID state if any changes are made to the underlying tables, so executing the synonym again will return it to VALID state provided table still exists.
SQL> create table t (a number);
Table created.
SQL> create synonym st for t;
Synonym created.
SQL> select object_name, status from user_objects where object_name = 'ST';
OBJECT_NAME     STATUS
ST              VALID
SQL> alter table t add (b number);
Table altered.
SQL> select object_name, status from user_objects where object_name = 'ST';
OBJECT_NAME     STATUS
ST              INVALID
SQL> select * from st;
no rows selected
SQL> select object_name, status from user_objects where object_name = 'ST';
OBJECT_NAME     STATUS
ST              VALID

Create a folder if it is non-existent

Hello,
I would like to create a repertory if it is non-existent.
Is this somebody has an example?
Thank you

An even simpler solution: Just execute the "New Directory" function and
ignore any error returned.
Or more correctly, use "File Info" and look at the error code. If no
error is returned and the directory output is true, you are fine. No
error and directory output is false means you have a conflict with a
file already existing. An error output means you can go and try to
create the dir.
