Portal Service Fails to Start

Hi all,
I've developed a custom portal service based on
the com.sap.netweaver.kmc.globalservice.zip example
available on NWDS Help. When I deploy it, the service
works ok but whenever I restart the J2EE instance it
doesn't start. I've already tried to undeploy the
application, shutdown, start, deploy and start sequence
that I found on another discussion from who seemed to
have the same problem but it didn't work.
Thanks in advanced,
Here's my portalapp.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application name="com.redcolombia.portal.km" alias="com.redcolombia.portal.km">
<application-config>
<property name="startup" value="true"/>

</application-config>

<property name="startup" value="true"/>
</service-config>

<property name="Repository" value="documents"/>
</service-profile>
</service>
</services>
</application>
Here's the log extract from the J2EE trace file:

Hi Detlev,
Thanks for pointing that out. I've solved that
NullPointerException and the service comes up, however, my service fails to register as a ResourceEventReceiver so it is up but it doesn't do its job.
In my service I try to register as an
ResourceEventReceiver by implementing the
IResourceEventReceiver inteface. This is what is failing
in my service. Is there some service properties that are
needed for this that I don't know of?
This is my code:
public final void register(String repositoryName) {
     if( repositoryName == null ){
          log.fatalT("Repository Property is NULL...not doing anything...");
           return;
     IManagerFactory managerFactory;
     IRepositoryManager repository=null;
     try {
       managerFactory = ResourceFactory.getInstance().getManagerFactory();
       repository = managerFactory.getRepositoryManager(repositoryName);
       IResourceEventBroker broker = repository.getEventBroker();
       if( broker == null ) return;
       boolean async = false; // register as synchronous event receiver
       broker.register(this, resourceReadEvent, IEventBroker.PRIO_MIN, async);
       log.fatalT("Registered to " + repository.getPrefix()" Prefix="repository.getPrefix());
     catch( WcmException e ) {
       //log.fatalT("exception while registering to " + repository==null?null:repository.getPrefix() + ": " + e.getMessage());
       log.fatalT("Exception while registering to repository error: "+e.getMessage());
       e.printStackTrace();
This is the trace:

The saposcol service failed to start.

Hi everyone:
- We have detected that in our production database system there are two error messages:
1. The saposcol service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
EVENT ID: 7000
And
2. Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the saposcol service to connect.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
EVENT ID: 7009
- Both of them have as source the Service Control Manager.
The database system is a Windows cluster where the portal SCS are running with Oracle 9.2.0.5. The OS is a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.
The path to the executable saposcol.exe is:
C:\WINNT\SapCluster\saposcol service
We have tried to uninstall and install the service as in note 82751 (through the windows services window), and the service saposcol is started, but these two errors steel appear.
We have the same structure at Test system and saposcol works properly. We thought if it could be possible that the overloading of the production system was causing a delay in the start of the saposcol service, and then the timeout is reached. Is it possible to increase this timeout, and in this case, will this solve the problem? (if so, how do we do increase it, and in which manner will affect our system?)
Thanks and regards,
Jose Sorli Esteve

hi,
install the saposcol service with administrator account
and change the logon from nt service manager to SAPService<SID> user
if it not works downlod the new one from sap service place
and re install it

Trying to install the latest iTunes on my Gateway w/ Windows XP. I keep getting the message "Service 'Bonjour Service' (Bonjour Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."

Hi, I'm trying to re-install the latest iTunes on my Gateway w/ Windows XP. I had to update it a while back to put songs on my brother's iPod, but my computer froze halfway through and nothing has worked right since.
I keep getting the message "Service 'Bonjour Service' (Bonjour Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
I looked through older discussions that told me to go to right click My Computer - Manage - Services and Applications - Services - Find Bonjour and restart it.
Well, the only option that I can click on is Start. When I do, it says "Windows could not restart the Bonjour Service service on Local Computer. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified."
Where do I go from here? Help would be greatly appreciated, I've been trying to fix this for over a year now with no dice. Also, I cannot do a factory reset (last effort) because it says the administor's account is disabled and I do not have the disc.

Sorry if double posting is a no-no here, but I forgot to add that I've already tried disabling Spyware Doctor.

Hi there Jbrashear,
It sounds like you want to know how to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service because of an alert that was displayed when you were trying to update or reinstall iTunes.
The article below will walk you through the process starting or stopping the Apple Mobile Device Service on your PC.

Also, if you haven't already, take a look at this article which walk you through the process of completely removing iTunes and then reinstalling it.

Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start which eventually leads to windows error 193 which never goes away no matter what I do and the dreaded

Mid way through download of I-Tunes after clearing every Apple program from my computer I get "Apple Mobile Device Service" failed to start message. Eventually leading to Windows error 193 (error 7). How do I get Apple Mobile Device Service to start so I do not get error messages and failure of I-Tunes to install?

If you have a 64-bit machine, then try the "for older video cards" version...

The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.

I'm installing the newest itunes 64 bit on my win 7 64 bit professional os. using the itunes installer it loads itunes part way and then i get an error message saying that bonjour service failed to start. i cant get itunes any further. i have to back out

I'm installing the newest version of Itunes over the last version on my laptop. win 7 pro os. it starts the install then a error msg comes up stating that Bonjour service failed to start. verify that i have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I can't retry, ignore only cancel which un-installs all that it has installed and reverts me to the last version which i had. any idea?

it starts the install then a error msg comes up stating that Bonjour service failed to start. verify that i have sufficient priveleges to start system services.
Sometimes we can get past that one by disabling the Bonjour Service prior to the install.
In your Start menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Perhaps maximise the screen to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the Bonjour Service and select "Properties".
In the General tab, set the Startup type to "Disabled":
... and click OK.
Restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Please help. My ipod classic could not be recognised by itunes when I connect my ipod to PC. Previously it has been recognised before I updated. This was a while ago now and so I removed all apple files and re installed the latest itunes but am having the same problem.
When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Some anti-virus programs (e.g., McAfee) have this rule that can be invoked under the "maximum protection" settings: PREVENT PROGRAMS REGISTERING AS A SERVICE. If that rule is set to BLOCK, then any attempt to install or upgrade iTunes will fail with an "iPod service failed to start" message.
If you are getting this problem with iTunes, check to see if your anti-virus has this setting and unset it, at least for as long as the iTunes install requires. Exactly how to find the rule and turn it on and off will vary, depending upon your anti-malware software. However, if your anti-virus or anti-malware software produces a log of its activities, examining the log may help you find the problem.
For example, here's the log entry for McAfee:
9/23/2009 3:18:45 PM Blocked by Access Protection rule NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe \REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\iPod Service Common Maximum Protection:Prevent programs registering as a service Action blocked : Create
Note that the log says "Common Maximum Protection: Prevent programs registering as a service". The "Common Maximum Protection" is the location of the rule, "Prevent programs registering as a service" is the rule. I used that information to track down the location in the McAfee VirusScan Console where I could turn the rule off.
After I made the change, iTunes installed without complaint.

Help!!! iTunes install error "Apple Mobile Device Service Failed To Start". Error 7 (Windows Error 193)

Help! Following a standard upgrade I got the error message "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 193).
I am running Windows 7 and installing again brings the message "Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services"
I have uninstalled everything Apple, deleted all related folders and run as administrator numerous times with no luck.
I had hoped that iTunes 12.1.2 would resolve the issue, unfortunately it failed to do so leaving me iTunes free which is driving me mad!
Can anyone advise what else I can do to resolve the error and bring back iTunes?
Thanks

Dell 64 bit pc . Tried updating to latest version. Error message says Apple mobile device service failed to start. Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services. What does that mean?

I have a dell 64 bit pc and had an older version of ITunes installed. When I tried to install the 12--- version, the install stopped with the message, "Apple Mobile Device Services failed to start, verify that you have sufficient privileges to start systems services". I have no clue what that means. can anyone help. ????

Hi doywks,
The Apple Mobile Device is a component of iTunes that communicates between your computer and your iPhone or iOS device. The error message you are seeing "verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services" has to do with the Windows operating system. It's possible that you are not logged in as the administrator for your Windows PC. Or, you may have antivirus software stopping the Apple Mobile Device from running.
If you are having issues updating iTunes on your PC, follow the steps in the article below.

Service 'Apple Mobile Device Service' (Apple Mobile Device Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services????

I recently got an iPhone 5s and had to download the new itunes which I had been putting off for ages, otherwise it wouldn't sync. It wouldn't let me download and instead said 'service mobile device service' failed to start. I then tried to uninstall (as recommended by apple) and re install but the same error came up. If i click ignore, it finishes downloading but refuses to open, instead coming up with 'error 7 windows error 193'. Ive tried everything and this is really frustrating, help would be much appreciated

OK Dave, i just found one solution that worked for me. However, I find that solutions appearing on discussion threads often are very OS and machine specific, so I normally try a variety of suggestions. After awhile one suggestion normally works. So try this one, remembering I have a Dell PC with Win 7 x 64 which may not fit your situation.
Go to https://discussions.apple.com/message/24606166#24606166 where you will find a solution from touringtest2. The soulition requires an easy uninstall of Apple software items. I followed the steps outlined exactly and have successfully installed the most recent iTunes software. Hope this works for you and a few others too. Apple support sure doesn't make it easy for interested users which is why I appreciate support communities like this. Thank you touringtest2 wherever you are. Best - RonS42

HT1926 Installation fails because Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start?

When I attempted to update ITunes, it failed at the starting services point because "Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start". The ignore button would not work. Retry did not fix it. I have deleted all ITunes from my computer, restarted, and attempted a new install. Same problem. Help.

The frequently suggested repair steps listed in comments at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926 did not work for me yesterday when I attempted for an entire day to fix this commonly reported problem with the newest iTunes update. I now realize that I overlooked one step listed in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
My computer has a Windows 64 bit operating system. I should have paid attention to this instruction:
"If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, you'll need to confirm that the following folders have been removed:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Bonjour
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\
C:\Program Files (x86)\iPod\ "
Tonight, I removed those previous version files from the Program Files (x86) directory and executed the rest of the steps listed. Success resulted. If you are struggling like I did to install the iTunes newest update on a Windows 64 bit operating system, you might benefit to recheck that you followed the instruction listed above.

Service "Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

Greetings,
Having a little problem installing Itunes 12. Upon trying to install the program, i'm confronted with this error: "Service "Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services". Nothing I've done seems to be able to get the program to be installed. It asks if i want to retry or cancel. Clicking Retry only prompts me again with the same error message. After i hit cancel the entire installation rolls back.
I'm currently logged in as administrator ( I don't have any other accounts on this computer), I've tried uninstalling all the components relating to apple along with its folders and restarting+RT clicking>Run as Administrator. It still refuses to install. Very frustrating. Any ideas?

Sorry if double posting is a no-no here, but I forgot to add that I've already tried disabling Spyware Doctor.

Sync problem on iPhone4 IOS5 and iTunes 10.5: Sync service failed to start

After painful upgrade to IOS 5.0 on my iPone 4 which suffer from er 3014 unt I do full restore in other computer. Now two new problems cropped up again:
A.
When I sync IPhone with iTunes, the sync process started and freeze at "waing f sync service to start" and for 5 minutes or so, it end up with a dialog stated that the iPhone could not be synced because sync service failed to start
To remedy, I have to click t start Sync again, and thios time, it will be completed.
To solve tjhis, I have done the following, and the probelm still persist:
a. Reinstal,l to repair iTunes
b. Delete the Lockup folder
c. Reset sync history
d. reboot iPhone
All cannot solve the problem. Help please, how to solve this problem?
Also, when I backup my iPhone, it freeze at "Backing up iPhone" fr about 10-15 minutes, then start backup, until nearly finished, then it restart backup process again by itself, and again, freezing at "Backing up iPhone" for another 5 minutes, then it start backup and complete. I check the backup time in Preferences, it's correct.
To solve this, I delete the backup, and start new backup, the process went OK. But when I start backup again, the above symptom (backing up, and restart backup again to complete) persist
I have quite a rough experiences with iTunes-iPhone-iPad sync and backup all the times. Can the sync and backup process mad better and real trouble free Apple?
Help and suggestion please. I sync iPhone and iPad2 with WIndow XP PC. iPad2 do not have problem. The problem is with iPhone4 IOS 5 32 GB (less than 2 GB free space on iPhone remains)

I have very similar problems with my brand new iPhone and iTunes. iTunes is virtually unusable even after multiple installs, uniinstalls, and reinstalls. Sync fails silently. Drop-down menus won't stay visible long enough to click any options. Phone-support blames it on the fact that I use Windows XP however the iTunes page says right there: "iTunes 10.5 for Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7". The only program I have problems with is iTunes.
He said I have to revert to iOS 4 but he also said he thought that was impossible. What does the OS on my phone have to do with the behavior of iTunes running on my computer? iTunes crashed and had failures both before and after I updated to iOS 5. Typical bad tech support just like every other company. I thought Apple was different. Apple really stepped in it this time and it stinks. I've seen a huge number of new problem reports here and elsewhere.
