Ovi Suite/N97 Issues with recurring tasks

Hi
I have finally managed to get my N97 to work with Ovi Suite (v 2.0.1.35) but am having some very annoying issues when it comes to syncing calendar & tasks (personally I wish I could just sync the calendar and not the tasks...).
I have several recurring tasks in Outlook. They feature in my task list on Outlook as just one task with the recurring symbol next to them. Whenever I sync my N97 for some reason, on both the N97 and Outlook the recurring tasks disappear and are replaced by a years worth of the recurring task. This means that both my N97 & Outlook task lists are suddenly overflowing and impossible to manage.
Has anyone else experienced this & is there a way round this, or a way to simply sync calendar and not tasks??
Thanks
Nick

Just tried editing my previous post and forum wouldn't let me.
Anyhow, I just discovered that Ovi suite didn't mark my tasks as complete - it deleted them. It also deleted quite a large chunk of my completed tasks as well. I have absolutely no idea why it would have done this, but to say it's very frustrating is a massive understatement, I'm now having to rebuild my task list from memory.
Never had any of these issues with PC Suite....
P.S - In my Ovi suite options I have conflict resolution set to Outlook not Device...

Issues with Approval Task IN IDM 7.1

Hi,
I have been facing issues with Approval task.
Firstly,
I have created an Approval task with 'Mskeyvalue' and 'Mxref_mx_privilege' as attributes.
I am having a problem in the Approvers workflow UI where, we see these approvals.
It not only displays the requested privilege,but also the already provisioned privileges of the enduser to the approver.
He will not be able to recognize which privilege has been requested.
Is this an already known issue which has been sorted out in recently updated patches?
If not can you suggest me a solution for this.
Secondly,
The privilege requested by the end-user is getting provisioned to the backend,even before it is Approved.
Since Provisioning tasks are mapped through repository,privileges are getting provisioned as soon as
an entry is made into the Identity Stores.
But,Ideally the requested privilege should not be proviosioned to the backend until it is approved by the Approver.
Is this an already known isuue which has been sorted out in recently updated patches?
If not can you suggest me a solution for this.
Thanks and Regards,
Joel

Joel,
I'm afraid the approval process is not quite this simple. You are correct, if you have provisioning setup on the repository for a privilege it will be assigned immediately. The approval task as you are using it works as an 'interrupt' to a process - nothing more.
There is an entry type called pending value that you would need to leverage in order to have privileges requested route for approval. This pending value object is created by default for role requests in 7.1, but I'm not sure how to create a pending value for a privilege.
Which brings to mind a question - is there a reason you want users to request privileges instead of roles? In general I think the security model is setup so that users are assigned roles which contain one or more privileges.
If you do choose to use a role instead of privilege, simply set the attribute MX_APPROVAL_TASK to the id of the approval task you want to use and the system will do the rest. The display you referenced in the first part of your question will always display the current values of the attributes you select for the user, so don't try to display the roles there - just display the user id, name, whatever else is helpful and when the approver clicks on the user id they will get the approval details which will include the requested role.
Also, please note that if you would like to assign a role directly anywhere (bypass approvals) you can use the switch: {direct_reference=1}

Hi,
Could you figure out why the event linkage is breaking when you make it Gen.Task? I think, there is some problem in your wflow template. May be do a Syntax Check in the testing environment. If that time, some error happens, then by the System Defaults in the Event linkage SWETYPV, it will deactivate the linkage.
I don't think this has got anything to do with you making TS as Gen.Task. Did you see the even trace to see what's the error for linkage breaking ?
More info. would help in identifying the issue.

Ovi Suite terribly slow with my N97

Comparing with Nokia PC Suite, the Ovi Suite's syncronisation of contacts and calendar details is terribly slow. It also demands enormous amounts of memory when running.
Can anyone help me out? I have 1200 + contacts, and quite a lot of appointments in my calendar, but normally, PC suite would use max 1 minute to syncronise when just a few changes - Ovi will use 5 min + on this, and during those minutes, it will slow down all other processes on the maschine.
Any tips? I still have PC suite, but I find that Ovi Suite has other advantages, and believe I've got to get used to it?

This is not an issue with Ovi Suite per se, it is always slow to access mass memory, it was the same with PC Suite, and the N97 has a large mass memory which is why backing up takes a long time.

Ovi Suite not syncing with Outlook 2007

OK, I found a lot of messages related to the same issue but no solution so I hope someone can help me!!
I'm trying to sync my N8 with my calendar and tasks but it takes forever and nothing happens.
All other stuff is syncing such as pictures, contacts, messages and music but calendar the message says: Preparing to sync calendar and tasks... and stays like that forever and nothing happens!
I removed PC Suite since N8 is not compatible and check all configurations in the phone and ovi suite. Please help!!
I also called nokia support and they were useless....
Phone: N8
Outlook 2007
Windows XP

OK... Not sure if I followed the instructions correctly since Im not a computer expert, but I could not find anything usefull from those files + size is too big to attach here... Pls advise
PS. When I cancel the calendar sync I have to shut down ovi suite by ctrl+alt+del and sometimes windows crashs and I have to restart

Nokia N97 - Issues with updater

I updated my N97 with the latest firmware update (had to use old PC Suite as Ovi Suite would not find my phone!!). I then pressed the update function on the phone to see what other updates were there. I found this wonderful new program that reorganises your files and sorts out any memory issues on the phone memory! Great? NO!!!! Due to the fact Nokia failed to highlight CLEARLY that you should not download this before the new Ovi Maps version 3.03, I now cannot download Ovi maps or indeed, any other nokia software update as i now get a message telling me I have not got enough memory!!! Help someone! I have reinstalled the new firmware but the phone remains in the same state. I fear I may have to go all the way back through my factory settings to put this right. A poor show from Nokia I have to say. Help someone ...please

Can you not uninstall this app via PC Suite applications manager .
Or via settings organize remove on the phone .

Ovi suite downloading issues

I can't load ovi suite no matter how many times I've tried! I am using windows vista and have updated drivers, removed all nokia software and still I get a message saying.....Unknown Publisher error code 3, "no digital signiture". It's driving me nuts! I could never load it when I had my N97, and now I have the N8 I want to get this sorted.
Is there anywhere in London that I can take my laptop too to show someone?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am assuming that you have downloaded Ovi Suite and you get the message when you try to install it, in which case -
All our Vista machines are now upgraded to Win 7 so I can't test this but I think the message you got can be the same as one can get if the file is blocked by Vista's file protection control which it imposes on what it thinks are suspicious files coming from other sources. It is a long shot that is the problem but I have run into it before with downloads - so if not already done, in Windows Explorer right click the Ovi Suite installation file, select "Properties" and under the "General" tab check down the bottom right hand corner and see if there is an "Unblock" button. Hopefully there is as it is an easy fix, just click it and you should be good to go.

N86 Ovi Suite Sync Issues

I have N86 8MP s/w rev 2.1.006 and I am trying to sync contacts, calendars podcasts, photos etc using Ovi Suite rev 2.2.123 running on pc with Windows 7.
Ovi has never really worked properly so I have deleted all Nokia programs using Control Panel in W7 on pc and done a fresh install from web site. Ovi recognises the N86 and tries to synch, but every item says ' waiting to be synced'. I have checked all the menu options and they look OK.
I would be grateful of advice.
Solved!

I beleive I've answered my own question: deleted every Nokia app via Contol Panel, then searched in Windows Explorer for any folders and files with 'Nokia' reference and manually deleted. Then did a new install and it seems to be working - sure to be other issues lurking, but am being +ve!

Nokia OVI Suite 2 compatible with N900?

Hello,
PC Suite (for win XP) prompts me to "upgrade" it to Nokia Ovi Suite 2.
PC Suite at the moment allows me to do some things with the N900, like automatically transferring pics and other files to my PC, while the current version of OVI suite isn't doing anything useful for me, it just slows down the whole System.
My questions:
1. If I install Ovi Suite 2, will it replace PC Suite, so that PC Suite-functionality will no longer be available?
2. If PC Suite is replaced by Ovi Suite 2, is the new version less resource-hungry and, most importantly, does it work with my N900?
thanks Ben

Hi Ben,
Ovi Suite 2.2.241 does work with the N900, HOWEVER, it is still not a complete solution. It will synch contacts, calendar entries and tasks (if your client, e.g. Outlook, is supported). Features such as sending/synchronising messages is not supported, amongst other things.
1. It can co-exist with PC Suite (I have it running alongside PC Suite 7.1) and no functionality has been lost with PC Suite. It will not prompt you to uninstall or replace any of the PC Suite components.
2. Ovi Suite 2 is more resource hungry, probably in part due to the amount of eye candy in the new program (nice graphics, smooth transitiions....you get the drift).

OVI Suite Crashes on Calendar or Task Selection

I have a 2330 Classic. I am running it with OVI Suite on Windows XP. My Outlook version is 2003. Bluetooth connection WIDCOMM version 5.5.0.3200
I am unable to even select sync with Outlook under
Tools|Options|Calendar & Tasks or
Tools|Options|Notes.
It doesn't matter what connections are made, OVI Suite Crashes immediately if I touch either of those selections above:-
When Outlook is running
When Outlook is NOT Running
When Signed in to OVI.com
When NOT Signed in to OVI.com
When the Phone is connected
When the Phone is NOT connected
When Bluetooth is ON
When Bluetooth is OFF
Surely this must be something wrong with the OVI SUITE Software ??? I'm sure it worked under some previous version of OVI Suite, I wish I hadn't updated it.
is there some access to old versions of OVI Suite that might work?
Error txt file is attached
Someone help please? The Contact Us on the Nokia website just goes round and round in circles, I am not impressed. There appears to be many, many complaints re: Outlook Sync?

N8 and OVI suite no sync with Outlook 2010 calenda...

Hi I have been trying to sync my calendar with my work computer now for two weeks since purchasing the N8.
It is running Windows 7 enterprise (32 bit) and MS Outlook 2010.
OVI suite ( version 3.1.0.91) recognizes the N8 OK, but I cannot sync Calendar and notes. I keep seeing the message that Outlook is not installed on the computer.
I have tried many of the suggestions from this forum without success. I have even installed PC Suite 7.1.30.9 which also recognizes the N8 and even allows the manual sync operation to be initiated, but no data (appointments) are transferred in either direction.
Please can someone help me?
I know it can be made to work as my home computer which runs a home version of Windows 7 (64 bit) and Outlook 2010 seems to sync correctly. I cannot work out what the difference is.
I have already tried PC Suite cleaner and several reinstalls. My excellent old E66 phone can still sync quite successfully on both computers
Solved!

Me too:
1. Windows XP SP3 included on a Windows 2003 server domain
2. Outlook 2010 (14.0.5128.5000 (32 bits)) connected with Exchange 2003 server.
3. OVI 3.1.1.85
(Installed in this order)
When I try synchronize calendar & tasks, OVI tell me that I need Windows Calendar or Microsoft Outlook. But I have Outlook.

Issue with Dataflow Task in SSIS Package

Hello Everyone,
I have recently created an SSIS package to Load data from Flat file to SQL Server Table, it was working fine. Now I have bought a new laptop and copied the projects into this new system and changed all the connection managers(Flat files) accordingly.
Problem is, when I previously ran the package(With File1) in old laptop and check the distinct count on a table it was perfect, but when I ran the same package with same File on New Laptop, the Distinct count gives me an issue with particular record.
Eg: Distinct Count with old laptop Run , 10,20,100
Distinct Count with old New Run , 10,20,100 , 100
There is a Space being generated for a particular record, when I run the package on new laptop with same File as old one.
Any suggestions on this, I could not exactly figured out the Issue.
Please Help.
Thanks
Thanks, Please Help People When they need..!!! Mark as answered if your problem is solved.

You need to tell the responders here how exactly to reproduce your issue and provide the file.
I do not know how the "distinct count" works.
Seems to me it appears to be a database issue not SSIS.

Issue with getting task:acquiredBy in a BPEL Composite.

Hi,
We are facing an issue with an XPath query:
<assign name="RescanHumanTask_1_readTask">
<copy>
<from variable="taskAssignedMessage"
part="payload"
query="/taskservice:taskAssignedMessage/task:task"/>
<to variable="RescanHumanTask_1_globalVariable"
part="payload"
query="/task:task"/>
</copy>
<copy>
<from variable="RescanHumanTask_1_globalVariable"
part="payload"
query="/task:task/task:systemAttributes/task:acquiredBy"/>
<to variable="inputVariable"
part="payload"
query="/client:process/client:invoice/contentType:assignee"/>
</copy>
</assign>
It gives us an error:
Error in evaluate <from> expression at line "427". The result is empty for the XPath expression : "/task:task/task:systemAttributes/task:acquiredBy".
Can someone figure out a way of getting the System Attribute task:acquiredBy inside a bpel flow.

acquiredBy will be empty unless it is acquired by any user. you should pick value from last updated by field.

Issue with the Task TS17900100 in HCM p & f - Transaction brackets damaged

Hi Experts,
We have a custom HCM processes & forms which updates the backend INFTY as the result of execution of Step Process Forms - with the Workflow Task TS17900100
This works absolutely fine in the DEV System. But when I transported the workflow in the QA environment it worked fine for the first time.
Ever since then we are getting follow issue -
The backend INFTY does not get updated.
On further checkin in SWIA we found that step with the task TS17900100 ( Process Form ) fails and throws the following error
1.Transaction brackets of the workflow has been damaged
2.Exit CL_HRASR00_POBJ_WF_EXIT triggered exeception for event STATE_CHG and (target) status STARTED
3.Error updating the process object
Would appreciate if I can get any help in this regards.
Thanks in advance!!
Regards,
Akshay..

Hello,
Make sure the wf is active in QA (re-activate if possible), check the transport for errors, check authorizations for WF-BATCH perhaps delete and recreate via SWU3?), refresh the buffers (SWU_OBUF).
Please let me know if any of this helps.
