Points for unknown bugs

Hi,
why you reach point for a good answer, article, tutorial etc. but not when you report an unknown bug?
SAP should always be happy for improving his software.
Kind regards
Roberto

Roberto, I have a suspicion that SAP might actually not be very happy about you reporting a bug, especialy if it's something that has little effect (e.g. works only in particular scenario). From their perspective (again, just my guess) it worked just fine, everyone was happy and now you come in and they have to make a change. On top of that, they need to make sure they don't break something else (how many times you see the note correcting the note correcting another note... <to infinity>). So at this point they probably hate you.
To me personally squeezing out a correction note from SAP is already a reward since most of the time the reply is that everything is correct "by design". (I'm a very reasonable and logical person and still do not understand why some things work "by design" in such a way that it makes no sense and is causing problems for the users and need for modifications.)

  • Could my SCN user be hacked? Received points for unknown activities

    Hi,
    After some period of inactivity in SCN I just wanted to create another blog. I was wondering about my rewarding points (seemed higher than I remembered. When I looked at the latest points I "earned"
    I saw several entries about alleged Wiki pages that were created under my user name in several spaces during the last month. But I haven't posted/created anything for at least 2 months and surely not in spaces like Healthcare or ABAP. Any explanation? Could my user be hacked and abused?
    Kind Regards
    Volker

    Hello Volker,
    We are currently experiencing an issue around the awarding of extra wiki points that IT is investigating. Thank you for reporting this instance, and thanks in advance for your patience as the issue is being worked out.

  • SSRS 2008 Column Chart with Calculated Series (moving average) "formula error - there are not enough data points for the period" error

    I have a simple column chart grouping on 1 value on the category axis.  For simplicity's sake, we are plotting $ amounts grouping by Month on the category axis.  I right click on the data series and choose "Add calculated series...".  I choose moving average.  I want to move the average over at least 2 periods.
    When I run the report, I get the error "Formula error - there are not enough data points for the period".  The way the report is, I never have a guaranteed number of categories (there could be one or there could be 5).  When there is 2 or more, the chart renders fine, however, when there is only 1 value, instead of suppressing the moving average line, I get that error and the chart shows nothing.
    I don't think this is entirely acceptable for our end users.  At a minimum, I would think the moving average line would be suppressed instead of hiding the entire chart.  Does anyone know of any workarounds or do I have to enter another ms. connect bug/design consideration.
    Thank you,
    Dan

    I was having the same error while trying to plot a moving average across 7 days. The work around I found was rather simple.
    If you right click your report in the solution explorer and select "View Code" it will give you the underlying XML of the report. Find the entry for the value of your calculated series and enter a formula to dynamically create your periods.
    <ChartFormulaParameter Name="Period">
                      <Value>=IIf(Count(Fields!Calls.Value) >= 7 ,7, (Count(Fields!Calls.Value)))</Value>
    </ChartFormulaParameter>
    What I'm doing here is getting the row count of records returned in the chart. If the returned rows are greater than or equal to 7 (The amount of days I want the average) it will set the points to 7. If not, it will set the number to the amount of returned rows. So far this has worked great. I'm probably going to add more code to handle no records returned although in my case that shouldn't happen but, you never know.
    A side note:
    If you open the calculated series properties in the designer, you will notice the number of periods is set to "0". If you change this it will overwrite your custom formula in the XML.

    Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
    being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
    that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
    to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
    Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
    But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
    Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
    version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
    a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
    b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
    driver version roll back.
    Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
    Thanks.

    Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
    later versions of Premiere Elements.

  • E55 Thread for Firmware Bugs

    I noticed that there isn't yet a thread in order to report E55 firmware bugs, so I started this
    Here the firmware bugs I've found:
    - Hidden WLAN: when you search for wireless access points (for example from the main screen) the phone see always one "hidden wlan", that is not there!
    - Default phone numbers: when you have more phone numbers for a contact, you can choose one of these as default for messaging or dialing, but even if you do that, E55 keep asking you what number to use every time you make a sms
    - Organizer major bug: sometimes (80% of times!) when you edit a memo in Organizer, or when you move it (by changing the start date), you will see that also the end date has changed (adding 1 or more days), even if you didn't touch it! And even if the start and the end date originally matched! So if you had a memo covering one day, now it covers more days, and the end date can't be changed again (you set the correct date, save, and none happens). This make the memos totally unusable!
    - Organizer minor bug: when you open Organizer, and then open a memo, you have to select the information that you want to modify (text, date, synch) and click one more time to edit the memo. But: if you select the "date" or the "synch" row, instead of the "text" row, and then click "modify", the memo is open alway with the cursor on the "text" row. So, the capability of selecting others rows, is pretty useless.
    I hope some Nokia guy will notice this thread so there informations can be useful for a future firmware release, also because I'm getting crazy with the memos issue!!

    hi olandesevolante
    about ur first and second issues u face they r not realy bugs, why?
    for the first one:  i faced that with my E51 in a place i visited before, that hidden WLAN maybe a conflict from another type of waves other than that of wlan using same frequency
    and about the second issue:  default phone numbers is a feature that only set for making calls but when u make an sms the phone will ask u to choose between numbers present unders the same contact name even if u set a default number, so it is not a bug but that is the normal firmware properties
    for the rest of issues , they sound like real bugs
    i hope i helped a little and i wish those bugs will be removed in the next firmware

  • Firefox crashes for unknown reason lately, so I removed it and reinstalled it. How can I put my Favorites (bookmarks) back into the newly installed FireFox???

    Firefox crashes a few times when I was on Facebook and with email, also watching dramas online. Most of the time due to Adobe Flash and I did submit crash report. Later it crashes for unknown reason while I have email and Facebook on different tabs -- when I was on the tab of email, it looks system hang and not responding. This happened to my laptop that uses Windows Vista as I noticed. I don't remember it ever happens to my desktop that uses Windows XP.
    It's pretty annoying of such known crash, but before removing Firefox, I did try to update all add-ons or plugins and it looks like doesn't work out. After updating for couple times and it still crashed like that, I removed Firefox and reinstall it.
    '''Now I want to know how to put the shortcuts from my Favorite folder into the newly installed FireFox's bookmarks.''' I didn't backup the bookmarks by using Firefox. I even went to Firefox help for instructions, but it only mentions how to merge/input the bookmarks from other browsers. Please note the version I've removed and inrestalled is the same -- 3.6.13.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • How to take a single data point for each trigger pulse ( synchronou​s acquisitio​n).

     hi
              im using the pci-mio-16E1 card, with the IDE VC++, so  im looking for an example to explicate me how to make an synchronous acquisition data using an external timing, so the idea is to acquire (take) a single data point for each trigger pulse  from one  input channel ,and saving  the data in a file .
    now im making a code using the AI_setup and DAQ_op functions, im getting  a speed acquisition (it is the start of acquisition data), and  it is  a synchronous acquisition just for one trigger pulse, and me i looking for an acquisition for each trigger pulse. 
      so to  understand my problem you can see my code :
    iStatus = Timeout_Config(iDevice, lTimeout);
             iRetVal = NIDAQErrorHandler(iStatus, "Timeout_Config", iIgnoreWarning);
       //  configuration and selection of  signal trigger  
             iStatus = Configure_HW_Analog_Trigger(iDevice, ND_ON, iLowValue,iHighValue, ND_ABOVE_HIGH_LEVEL, ND_THE_AI_CHANNEL);
            iRetVal = NIDAQErrorHandler(iStatus, "Configure_HW_Analog_Trigger", iIgnoreWarning);
      iStatus = Select_Signal(iDevice, ND_IN_CONVERT, ND_PFI_2,ND_HIGH_TO_LOW);
             iRetVal = NIDAQErrorHandler(iStatus, "Select_Signal", iIgnoreWarning);
        iStatus = AI_Setup(iDevice, iChannel, iGain);
       iRetVal = NIDAQErrorHandler(iStatus, "AI_Setup", iIgnoreWarning);
       while ((iReadingAvail != 1) && (iStatus == 0)) {
     /* Wait until reading is available. */
             iStatus = AI_Check(iDevice, &iReadingAvail, &iReading);
            iRetVal = NIDAQYield(iYieldON);
           //  Acquire data from a single channel 
        iStatus = DAQ_Op (iDevice, iChannel, iGain, piBuffer, ulCount, dSampRate);
       while ((iDAQstopped != 1) && (iStatus == 0)) {
            iStatus = DAQ_Check(iDevice, &iDAQstopped, &ulRetrieved);
            iRetVal = NIDAQYield(iYieldON);
           iStatus = DAQ_VScale(iDevice, iChannel, iGain, dGainAdjust, dOffset,ulCount, piBuffer, pdVoltBuffer);
          iRetVal = NIDAQErrorHandler(iStatus, "DAQ_VScale",iIgnoreWarning);
       /* Set analog trigger mode back to initial state. */
           iStatus = Configure_HW_Analog_Trigger(iDevice, ND_OFF, iLowValue,iHighValue, ND_ABOVE_HIGH_LEVEL, ND_THE_AI_CHANNEL);
      /* Set PFI line back to initial state. */
           iStatus = Select_Signal(iDevice, ND_IN_START_TRIGGER,ND_AUTOMATIC, ND_DONT_CARE);
              iStatus = DAQ_Clear(iDevice);
     /* Plot acquired data  */
          iRetVal = NIDAQPlotWaveform(pdVoltBuffer,ulCount, WFM_DATA_F64);
    so this is the data acquired -0.900879,-0.900879,-0.900879,-0.900879,-0.900879,​-0.900879,-0.900879,-0.900879 and i think that is a noise because all time i get this data.

    When updating my IOS 5.1.1 to IOS 6 and after the download completed the updating of the iphone couldn't be completed for unknown error and the device froze and all i have now is a black screen with an apple and a meter that shows no progress I can't switch off my iphone or do anything!!!

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem last week with my nice shiny 3 week old iPhone 6. I noticed the Apple logo was on the screen, but it did not progress like a normal boot up. I restarted the phone, and it showed the Apple logo, then a red screen then cycled back to the logo and kept looping. I got the phone to the iTunes connection stage by keeping hold of the power button and the home button until the apple logo appeared then kept holding the home button. iTunes recognised the phone, and wanted to restore, but this was unsuccessful  because the phone would keep looping to the red screen and iTunes failed. After loads of Apple support, I was told it was a hardware failure, and like you I live more than an hour away from the store. None the less, I made an appointment with the Genius bods, and they replaced the phone. They said they had never heard of the problem, but really, take a look at these forums and you will see that it is a common problem and I suspect they are keeping it under wraps...
    My issue is that as a disappointed customer with faulty goods, why should i have to stick to an appointment to get it replaced? What other store would you have to do this?
    The "Genius" didn't even want to see the phone powered up before offering a replacement... Oh, and it turned out they didn't have the exact same model as a replacement so they were going to send me out of the store empty handed.... I kicked off BIG time, and they very reluctantly gave me a phone from the sales stock, rather than the repairs stock..
    Not a happy Apple customer anymore, and I feel the more people who know about the lack of service and customer care the better. They need to get off there high horse and join the real world!

  • My Time Machine will no longer back up to my external disk for unknown reasons.  It would not accept my password and said the disk is read-only and damaged.  How can I copy my files to my Mac so I can repair it?

    My Time Machine will no longer back up to my external drive for unknown reasons.  It began after a series of power outages (my equipment is protected by a surge protector with battery backup), and was shut down correctly.  Then it began by not recognizing my disk and my Time Machine password, although I am positive it was correct. I tried NUMEROUS times to get into it. It says the disk is damaged and needs to be erased and started over.  How can I back up my files on my Mac so I can do that? I have no other disk to back up to.  I found the files in a folder called "Backups.backupdb", and tried to copy them into a folder, but get the message "The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup."  The "lost+found" folder did copy for me. Will I just have to lose 4 years of backups?

    Hi there,
    I have the same issue. Usually hangs after 10K od sometimes after 18MB of backup file.
    Config: iTunes 10.4., Win 7 64bit, iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3
    I tried all of these without success:
    - deleted backups via iTunes / Preferences
    - deleted backups from sync folder
    - created a new admin user and tried to sync
    - reinstalled iTunes
    - ran all Windows updates, restarted, reinstalled iTunes
    - ran iTunes / Diagnostics (says everything okay, only info which is strange: diag says I am not a admin user, which is not correct)
    Nothing helped. Who can help. I hope someone from Apple can take care, as I seem not to be the only one. Actually iTunes is the worst part about iPhone. Hope with iOS 5 and Cloud sync to get rid of iTunes.
    Any hints welcome,
    Cheers,
    Miguel-KA
