Pages Running Away

Pages runs away (the process takes up approx 98% CPU).
This causes it to be unresponsive, and to exit it, it must be force quit.
The last thing I installed was the newest version of growl (v1.2), including growl mail and growltunes.
No idea what is causing it.
Additionally, earlier today the screen went "blocky" when entering my password to wake up from sleep.

Firstly do some computer maintenance like Repair permissions, weekly scripts etc. Trash junk! Do restart the computer once in a while.
Trash Pages preferences, com.apple.iwork.pages.plist in User > Library > Preferences.
Does Keynote and Numbers behave better? Does Pages behave better when used in another account?

  • ESSBASE V9 run away query

    Hi
    I have noticed that if you use a calc script to export your database from a Block storage cube, you can create a run away query. I was missing a parameter and ran a query to export some data - it just kept running, even after I tried to terminate it. is there a way to stop the query without having to bring down the server?

    I would doubt that the data could of caused this issue, I would of thought the problem would lie down to either metadata changes or the database compression changing.
    If you want to start the database up again, first make sure there is no ghost esssvr process running, if the database crashed it could leave a ghost process running and it will stop the database starting again, kill the process try again.
    If it doesn't work you could restore the db from backup.
    Or if you want to just clear the data, delete the ess**.pag ess*.ind and .esm files and start up the application, then reload the data.
    Cheers

  • Stopping a "run-away" request

    What is the best way to stop a "run-away" request from a JSP? Say the User has a page from which he can issue a request. For example, say that the request performs a database query and returns a list of objects. If the system performance is slow, and the User is tired of waiting for a response, how may the applicaiton be designed to terminate a request to permit the User to issue a new request that is more granular and refined in its scope, and which will presumably run more quickly? Can one place a stop button on the form? Are there any threading issues in terms of the functionality with the stop button to be able to terminate the previous request that is "in-flight" with respect to the middle tier or the host?
    Does killing the browser session (which causes the client to lose connectivity to the middle-tier) automatically stop the request?
    Does pressing the stop button in the browser have the same effect?

    We are running the JSP in an IFrame within the browser, and I have noticed that pressing the browser's stop button has no effect on the JSP.
    Even if we could get this to work, I am not sure if it will cause the process on the middle-tier to stop consuming resources.
    Thanks for your feedback. I guess I am interested in learning about any/all implementation alternitives, with a view to understanding the complexity/cost/and limitations of each implementation alternative.

  • How to tell if the AE programm is called from (1) SYSTEM PROCESS REQUEST or (2) page run control request

    We just wrote an AE program and is called through the vanilla SYSTEM PROCESS REQUEST.
    It's running on a daily basis ie. with RECURRENCE.
    Now we need to call the same program through the regular page run control request.
    But we are not how to recognize from inside the AE program if whether it's been called from SYSTEM PROCESS REQUEST or RUN CONTROL REQUEST.
    Any of you might have suggestion ?
    Any technique or workaround is also appreciated.
    THANKS in Advance .

    This AE pgm is currently automatically called from SYSTEM PROCESS REQUEST on a daily basis to load data from an input file deposited on the server ready for pickup.
    We would like to use the same AE pgm ( thus using the same validation and loading logic ) to load the same file format but defined by the user ( via attachment load ) as needed any time during the day.
    The user will initiate this AE pgm online ( ie. from a page with his parameters ).
    Currently, the pgm now already runs automatically daily and we wish to make it also available to be run by user anytime in the day
    To achieve that, we would need to know:
    Is the AE pgm ran by (a) the user or by the (b) SYSTEM PROCESS REQUEST so that the program can decide of where to take input file.
    (a) Take from an attachment defined by user or (b) from the input file already deposited on the server for pickup
    That is the reason why we try to detect who called the AE pgm in order decide where to pickup the input file.
    Your help is much appreciated as I do researches but so far haven't gotten a concluded decision.
    Thank you.

    Ah, but there's this caveat:
    Apple will continue to evaluate the repair data and will provide further repair extensions as needed.

  • Run away process

    Can anyone tell me way to find what a particular user is doing up the unix process id as shown in the the v$process view. eg joining it with v$session and anything else which might help me
    thanks

    First of all this is not called "run away process". Not sure where you got the term.
    It's not a good idea to recompile a package while other sessions are using it. However the other sessions should recognize the changes after the package been recompiled.
    There're a few DDL locks involved here,
    Oracle will place an Exclusive DDL Locks on target package to make sure other session will not compile the same package at the same time.
    Oracle will also place Share DDL Locks on all referenced tables and other objects to make sure they are not changed during the compile.
    In your "other" sessions that calling this package they all have Breakable Parse Locks on the package. So that the associated shared SQL area can be invalidated if a referenced object is altered or dropped. In your case recompiled.
    In another words, whenever you recompiled the package, these Breakable Parse Locks are broken, Oracle will know the old SQL area for the package is invalidated. The session need parse the package again.

  • HT1199 Hi. I've got an issue with Pages running on Mavericks on Macbook air. Every time I open the app it hangs right there and I can't do anything on it. I've uninstall and install it back again but the issue still persists. Any help please?

    Thank you so much for helping,
    But i really wonder how you did that. did you always switch between design view and preview view, then change the key position for 2px then switch back, to align the four letters? because i imagine that can get really frustrating, if you have a logo consisting of 58 parts instead of 4!:)
    Anyway thank you very much for your time and effort!!!!

  • REGEXP_LIKE runs away when pattern is not found

    I am using the following in my pl/sql code:
    regexp_like(l_formatted, '^[\_]*([a-z0-9]+(\.|\_*)?)+@([a-z][a-z0-9\-]+(\.|\-*/.))+[a-z]{2,6}$')
    It validates e-mail addresses. When the pattern is found (the e-mail is valid) the performance is fine. When the pattern is not found the query takes at least 50 seconds and in a few cases has actually "run away". Has anyone else exprienced this problem?

    When the pattern is found (the e-mail is valid) the performance is fine. What's the execution plan?
    When the pattern is not found the query takes at least 50 seconds and in a few cases has actually "run away". Are you using Con*Text indexes?
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_regular_expressions_tuning_index.htm
    In some cases you can also index regex with FBI's. But regular expression are notorious for causing full-table scans on multi-million rows tables, and special care must be given to creating matching function-based indexes to keep performance at an acceptable level.
    From a performance perspective it’s important to properly index the Oracle tales so that regular expression validation does not cause problematic full-table scans. Oracle syntax allows the use of function-based indexes (FBI’s) to minimize the amount of database I/O associated with a invocation of a regular expression.
    Function-based indexes cannot work for all regular expressions, however, and it can be tricky to remove unnecessary full-table scans on some regular expressions, especially regexp_like.
    Hope this helps . . .

  • Just got my MacBook Pro....having trouble opening up certain web pages...just keeps scrolling and scrolling, my 7 year old desk top that is on the same wireless network for internet opened up the same web page right away, so I think the Internet is OK

    just got my MacBook Pro and I'm having trouble opening up certain websites, it just keeps scrolling and scrolling and never opens up the page....this is not the case with all websites, however my 7 year old desk top - which is connected to the same wireless Internet connection opened up the same page right away, so I don't think it's the Internet, any suggestions?

    Use Software Update to update your os and anything else that needs to be updated.   Repair permissions and restart your computer when done.
    Not sure if your new Mac came with 10.7.2 pre-installed as you make no mention of your os system.

  • Formatting Page Running Total - Need Urgent Help !!!

    Hi All,
    We need to format the page running total in European style and US style based on functional currency.
    Our current output is
    +1,200.00+
    Required output
    +1.200,00+
    <?xdoxslt:pat_format_number(12345, ‘##,##0.00’, $_XDOLOCALE)?>
    if $_XDOLOCALE = 'de-DE'
    Returns a number formatted with the specified pattern.
    For example:
    <?xdoxslt:pat_format_number(12345, ‘##,##0.00’, $_XDOLOCALE)?>
    returns
    12,345.00
    But the number 12345 above here is hardcoded but we need the number to be dynamic and it is the page running total.
    We are deriving the page running total in the following way:-
    <xdofo:inline-total
    display-condition="exceptlast" name="InvAmt"><xdofo:show-carry-forward name="InvAmt" format="99G999G999D00"/>
    </xdofo:inline-total
    Any Clues !!!
    Thanks...

    Got the solution and this is very important one !!!
    <xdofo:inline-total display-condition="exceptlast" name="InvAmt"><xdofo:show-carry-forward name="InvAmt" format="99G999G999D00" number-separators=",."/></xdofo:inline-total>
    <xdofo:inline-total display-condition="exceptfirst" name="InvAmt"><xdofo:show-brought-forward name="InvAmt" format="99G999G999D00" number-separators=",."/></xdofo:inline-total>

  • Help my cat run away I need Enermax

    So I was wondering...I want to get an Audigy sound card. Is the original Audigy a good performer? If you're into 2.1 sound like me, does it make any real difference over the k8t onboard sound?
    And if I installed windows xp w/acpi disabled, will it make it safe to install and use an audigy glitch free? Or do I still have to do convoluted stuff to make it work right...
    Or, on a similar note, are Turtle Beach Santa Cruz cards worth spending on? Which one would you say is better?
    This is on the athlon64 board because I am specifically asking about the k8t neo sound quality.

    well i would hope a fat mouse would want the cat to run away..maybey if you bought an enermax and threw it at the cat it would stay away.
    anyway, i would stay away from audigy 1 series they seem to have driver glitches, and erase eproms ..the zs series seems to be stomping on my core center and live update...but i didn't have problems with an audigy 2...that said there are other types of sb's but i am not sure on those..there was one person who gave up on thier audigy 1 and got a turtlebeach, and they were very happy with that said it installed smooth and sounded good. i had tried some other mad dog 7.1, revolution or somthing like that ...stay away from that..it sucked bigtime was terible to install, and sounded lousy

  • Run away as fast as you can!!

    Hi ! When you see this, run away as fast as you can. You will get the worst Malware you have ever seen. This is some thing new to the internet and I'm not liking it. They are down load agents and they are bad dudes.
    They are down load agents and they are being used on software that I have used and trusted for years. So be very careful when your down loading any software.

  • Run away calc

    I have a relatively straightforward Block storage cube (Planning cube). I loaded my data and had about 2400 level 0 blocks. I have 14 dimensions and 2 are dense (accounts and time periods). The other dimensions aren't crazy big the biggest being 350 members and about 6 dimensions are under 5 members (year, scenario, version).
    I had loaded and calc'd it previously and gotten about 15g of data and calcs in about 1 hour. Not great but not bad. I added a bit more data. Like maybe 50 rows and the number of level zero blocks increased but only slightly as expected.
    I then did a simple calc all from Essbase and then the problems started. The calc just seemed to take off. When I went to bed the calc had run for almost 3 hours and had reached 250g. I couldn't image what would do this but figured I would let it finish just to see (maybe I was dreaming i thought lol). I know you can put some data into the system that creates a multiple effect but not in the 150 times factor arena with 50 more lines of data.
    This morning I looked at the storage and am seeing even more odd behaviour. the there is like 150 data files in the storage view. many are zero and some are funny sizes instead of the standard 2g per data file. The cube won't start so I can't do a purge out of it. The server has 1.5 terabites of room so it couldn't really hit a storage limit on the server.
    1) has anyone seen anything like this before?
    2) any suggestions on how to blow it away on the essbase side without destroy planning with all its forms/task list, menus etc.
    3) any other related thoughts on the subject

    I would doubt that the data could of caused this issue, I would of thought the problem would lie down to either metadata changes or the database compression changing.
    If you want to start the database up again, first make sure there is no ghost esssvr process running, if the database crashed it could leave a ghost process running and it will stop the database starting again, kill the process try again.
    If it doesn't work you could restore the db from backup.
    Or if you want to just clear the data, delete the ess**.pag ess*.ind and .esm files and start up the application, then reload the data.

  • Why is my page running both these conditional processes?

    Could someone explain this to me please?
    I have 2 submit buttons on my page - let's call them Button1 and Button2.
    I have 2 After Submit page processes, let's call them Process1 and Process2. Process1 is is set to conditionally run if Button1 is clicked. Process2 is set to conditionally run if Button2 is clicked.
    When I click either button, both processes run. What's going on here? Is it something to do with where the processs being After Submit?
    Edit:
    Some further info, I just created a new page with the same layout as above and it works correctly. I noticed in the page with the problem that where it says "When Button Pressed (Process After Submit When this Button is Pressed)", Button1 and Button2 in the dropdown have stars in front of them (e.g. *Button1). What does this mean?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

    Cheers just realised that after a quick dabble. Everything's working fine now.
    Something to be aware of in future when using the 2 different region options for buttons. Strange that Apex doesn't automatically use different values for the button request, this one may catch a few people out I think!
