Possible Bug: Ring Constant Typedef not updating...

I have a ring constant control which is set as a strict type def.
If I select an instance of the control in my block diagram and "open typedef", I can edit the values no problem.
I then click "apply changes" and "save" and would expect all changes to propagate to every instance of this control (as it works with every other control I use). If I run the code and watch the values, they are maintained as the previous version of the control.
If I delete the instance of the control and then add it again, the new values are found.
This is frustrating, as I have to delete and re-add every instance whenever I change something. I haven't seen this behaviour in other controls as the "apply changes" has always worked as I expected.
Anybody seen this before?
I am using LabVIEW 2012, SP1, Build 12.0.1 (32-bit).
Thanks,
Matt

Bug report: text does not update on the stage

I am not sure whether this has been reported:
I have several groups divs into one main group div. In these are images and text. I create a new group by copying elements from a previous group and then insert new text in the copied text box. The text does not update on the stage but is correct when I run the composition and also in the text panel.

Hi Hemanth.
I tried all day and is intermittent, why?, 'cause the numbers are now showing but the other texts not, this happen only on Chrome and Safari when the navigator screen increases size.
On Chrome:
On Firefox:
I discovered that the error appears only on the right side of the stage, if I move the buttons to center, the error disappears:
On Chrome (Fullscreen):
I have no idea of what is happening.

Item names in a strictly typed ring control do not update.

I have a custom control (strict typedef) that contains one ring control. When I added item names to the strict type def, they do not get updated on the instances where I am using it.

Thanks for your response. However, I found the following sentence in the link LabVIEW custom controls ...
"A strict type definition forces almost everything about the control or indicator to be identical, including cosmetic properties such as size, color, and appearance. Strict type definitions also define other values, such as range checking on numeric controls and the item names in ring controls."
It turns out that the item names get updated if the ring control has sequential values associated with the items, but does not get updated if the values associated with the items are not sequential.
I chose text rings over enums
because I wanted the value associated with the items to be non-sequential for this particular control.
Once again, thanks for your response.

Possible bug in mail app after updating to 2.2

Just updated and found out that I can't email anything out. I get "The sender address was invalid" message. Tried deleting and re-adding email account but no luck there. I use gmail if that's of any help. Anyone else got this issue?

Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately), I don't think it's a bug.
It looks to me like Rogers/Fido up here in Canada seems to be blocking (intentionally or not) gmail's SMTP server. It was out almost all day yesterday, then starting working around 4 for some people, then is back down this morning.
I could be wrong, but that's the theory where I've been talking to people at google groups and howardforums, as it seems to work on WiFi for most people.
Some people have switched their primary SMTP to the built in rogers one, but I have too many trust issues for that
Hopefully Rogers gets their act together sometime soon.

TP4 ADF BC [BUG] view link are not updated after database synchronization

I have a table with a recursive relationship.
By mystake, I created a recursive foreign key for the same attribute (deptid->deptid instead of deptid->parentdeptid).
I generated entity, view and application module from this schema.
When compiling, errors was produced indicating the problem.
I corrected the problem in offline database, generate the changes into the database successfully.
I ask to synchronize the entity with the database, the changes was identified correctly and a new association was created.
First remark: the old one still there and it was necessary to delete it and rename the new generated one (to be consistent with other name). May be an option to overwriting the old one will be more pleasant, may be asking if the new one has to replace an existing one and show a list of existing ones.
Regenerating the association was correct and one error was removed when compiling again. The error on the view link still there.
I would like to delete the assoc and recreate it from the entity assoc but it was not possible easily because the view link is used in the application module !!!!
It will be nice to permit to regenerate an existing view link from an entity association without deleting it.
May be it is a better way to synchronize ? I would be very interesting to know how to achieve it as the best !

Was the inability to have the synchronization remove the key specific to the existing association's being self-referential, or if your initial association was from DeptId to some other attribute (which you then corrected) would the synchronize have fixed the problem?
The simplest way to achieve what you want given existing features would be to have delete the view link instance, view link, and association, follow by resynchronizing (I believe), then recreating the viewlink and adding back the view link instance.

Possible Bug - Web Service Request Not Correct

Hi,
I am running ApEx 2.2 and think I may have come across a bug when referencing a web service that has been created using JDeveloper.
I have created my WSDL in JDev that looks like the following:
<definitions

</port>
</service>
</definitions>
When referencing this in ApEx it can see the methods getCount and sayHello, and it can also see all the input and output parameters. The problem comes when I test the web service.
The request generated by ApEx is the following for the sayHello method:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body><namesp1:sayHello xmlns:namesp1="http://helloworldserver/"><namesp1:name xsi:type="xsd:string"></namesp1:name></namesp1:sayHello></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
This returns the following message from the webservice:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ns0="http://helloworldserver/"><env:Body><env:Fault><faultcode>env:Client</faultcode><faultstring>Caught exception while handling request: unexpected element name: expected={http://helloworldserver/}sayHelloElement, actual={http://helloworldserver/}sayHello</faultstring></env:Fault></env:Body></env:Envelope>
The correct request should in fact be:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body><namesp1:sayHelloElement xmlns:namesp1="http://helloworldserver/"><namesp1:name xsi:type="xsd:string">Chris</namesp1:name></namesp1:sayHelloElement></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
This will return the expected message:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ns0="http://helloworldserver/"><env:Body><ns0:sayHelloResponseElement><ns0:result>Hello Chris</ns0:result></ns0:sayHelloResponseElement></env:Body></env:Envelope>
What ApEx seems to be doing is using the name of the method, rather than what is being detailed in the WSDL as the expected input envelope. It is also not showing the input parameters as an input box in the test instead is shows "Report returned no rows".
I have managed to get around this issue in a less than ideal way be modifying the NAME column in the WWV_FLOW_WS_OPERATIONS table to sayHelloElement instead of sayHello, and the TYPE_IS_XSD column in the WWV_FLOW_WS_PARAMETERS table to Y instead of N, in the FLOWS_020200 schema.
It now works fine, but why what could have caused it to not be correct in the first place? The answer to this is very important to me as I am working on a way to call XML Publisher seemlessly, without using a URL link, from ApEx, and then emailing the output document to the user. I don't want to have to modify the underlying tables each time I add a new web service reference in ApEx.
Any comments, views, assistance is welcome here.
Many Thank in Advance
Cj

Tony:
Thanks for reporting the issue. There was a change in the session pop-up page to include reporting on the new xmltype column in collections. Unfortunately the wrong function is being called on the xmltype column to display its contents. This will be fixed in an upcoming release.
Application Express 4.0 Web service support makes use of this new xmltype column in a collection. Therefore if you call a web service that returns a large XML document, and you click the session toolbar, you will receive the error.

BUG: User Password Will Not Update

Issue:
When connecting to my work WiFi we use our standard domain username and password. This has been working for months now but yesterday my domain password expired. I set up an new one as normal and have been using it without any issue on my workstation.
When i went to use the wifi on my iphone (for example connecting to the app store) it detects that the password is incorrect and asks for a new password. this is pretty standard.
how ever no matter what i do it will not accept my new password, it will keep on prompting me to enter a password. I have entered my new password in about 20 times now so i seriously doubt i could have entered it incorrectly that many times when the same one works on my workstation.
What it looks like it is doing is it prompting for the password every time it attempts to retrieve any info over the wifi because it does load a few things after i enter the password. But as soon as i try quit the app store and reopen it asks for the password again.
Work Around:
Open Settings, Wi-Fi, Connection and retype the password. This will prevent the prompt from displaying again. So it would appear that this setting is not being updated when the incorrect password prompt is being displayed

try going into the wi-fi network and have the iPhone "forget the network" and then add the network again or settings> general> reset> reset network settings and the iPhone will remove any old passwords for the wi-fi network

Live Smart Playlists still not updating?

One of the things I had my fingers crossed for more than anything else with the update to iOS5 was that Apple would have finally remembered that the iPod (and by extension the iPhone) started life as a music player and that they would have fixed the bug with smart playlists not updating on the device, so meaning you have to rely on syncing with iTunes on the computer to get it to update. But unfortunately my smart playlists still don't seem to be working. Has anybody found a work around to this?

Every time they update their iOS or iTunes, I complain about it, and each time I (falsely) believe that they will do something about it!
Apparently not with the latest updates (iTunes 10.6 and iOS5.1).
One work-around is to uncheck Live Updating for the smart playlists you want to sync, and recheck it when you no longer want to sync it, or to update it between syncs.
Hope this helps

Status of number range has not updated

HI GURUS!
I read a lot of similar questions as mine. But I didn't find the correct answer for my problem.
The issue is: after I uploaded the Vendor master with LSMW, the status of the number range is still 0!
So I have to change it manually. What should be the problem? Is it possible that problem is in the NUMBER_GET_NEXT fm?
Thanks in advance,
Gábor

Hi!
The number range for vendors is internal! If I change the status after migration, in the XK01 transaction the system gives the correct next number. But how can it possible that the status has not updated after uploading?
Best regards,
Gábor

Update Model from database does not update Nullable Property -- Possible bug?

Hi,
I don't know if this is the correct forum.
When updating Model from database seems does not update the entity nullable property.
and it will not update the Default Value from the Backend (MSSQL) also.
I am using VS2008 SP1 3.5EF, XP64Bit Machine.
Thanks
vb.net GUI

maybe related..
today.. i changed the PK size.. from char(10) to char(36)
got many problems.. easy to fix...
but some query stop working:
Table1Record.Table2Reference.Load(); //i'm trying to load table2 from table1..
throw this error: A relationship multiplicity constraint violation occurred: An EntityReference expected at least one related object, but the query returned no related objects from the data store.
i get this error only when PK is greater than char(10)...
with SQL profiler.. i saw that PK was truncated to char(10) :
exec sp_executesql N'SELECT [... some fields...]
FROM [dbo].[Table1] AS [Extent1]
INNER JOIN [dbo].[Table2] AS [Extent2] ON [Extent1].[NoTable2] = [Extent2].[NoTable2]
WHERE [Extent1].[NoTable1] = @EntityKeyValue1',N'@EntityKeyValue1 char(10)',@EntityKeyValue1='a2164b14-e'
(NoTable1 is the PK changed from char(10) to char(36))
i'm working with VS.NET 2008
so, i looked at Model1.Edmx... in notepad
CSDL was not changed when i did the "Update Model from Database" !!!
here is SSDL part:
        <EntityType Name="Table1">
          <Key>
            <PropertyRef Name="NoTable1" />
          </Key>
          <Property Name="NoTable1" Type="char" Nullable="false" MaxLength="36" />
here is CSDL part:
        <EntityType Name="Table1">
          <Key>
            <PropertyRef Name="NoTable1" />
          </Key>
          <Property Name="NoTable1" Type="String" Nullable="false" MaxLength="10" Unicode="false" FixedLength="true" />
Cool.. i found the prob.... but why ? and how to correct this ? manually change Model1.Edmx in notepad ??
why the maxlength property is readonly in Model Browser pane ??
what about VS.NET 2010 ?! same prob ??
is it a bug or by design ?
I hope this can help someone.. I spent a few hours on this prob

Problem with TypeDef and Ring constants

Hi folks!
I've got a problem with my Ring-TypeDef.
I defined a ring control as a Strict TypeDef, hoping that all constants of this Ring will be updated when I change the definition as it does with Enums.
This does not work. Changes of the TypeDef take effect on the Ring control but not on the constants.
Has anyone an idea how to fix or workaround this?
TIA
Kevin.

Mark, as I understand it the idea with ring control/constants is that you can make pairs like the ones described:
yes: 1
no: 99
cancel: -1
but when you create a ring constant say, this feature is turned off, it behaves like a enum. In order to use this non continous numbering you need to uncheck "Sequential values" in propeties/Edit items. This took me some time to find the first time, and today I again looked a good half hour for it again!
Hope this was what you were asking.

Bug? Copy page within an application not updating everything

We have a ApEx (Version 2.0.0.00.49) application, and it was decided to rearrange the pages to fit a better numbering scheme for maintenance purposes. Not a problem, as we copy each page to the new page number, then delete the old one. However, we found when this was done, the new pages were broken. Specifically:
1. If you page contained a branch to itself the page number was not updated properly. For example, most of our pages have an "On Submit: After Processing (Unconditional)" branch back to the same page. This branch was created by the page creation wizard. After copying the page, the branch was not updated to the new page number, but rather still pointed to the old (now deleted) page.
2. The reset page (Clear Cache for all items on pages) process source are not updated. If you have a process item for Clear Cache (we have one for the delete item process to refresh the report query). The Source Process item, which based upon what the wizards create, is the page number (or a list of page numbers). Again, since this is not update, the reset page process clears the cache for the old (now deleted) page.

I don't think this is a bug. It is possible that you want to copy a page and retain information for branches and processes to the old page number. These are just a couple things that you'll need to change manually after a page copy.
I guess the point is that when a page gets copied it's not always going to be obvious what needs to happen to things like branches and processes - so they'll need a little attention after copying to get them working properly again.

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type.
The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010.
Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine.
We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect.
Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
Cheers

Hi,
I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information using Update Item action

I got error "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information "I found out the cause is Update Item action
I need to update item in another List call Customer Report ,the field call "Issues" with data type "Choice" to yes
then the error arise . please help..

Thanks for the quick response Nikhil.
Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
Site Lists
Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
Tasks = 7711 (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
Clients = 4396 (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.
