Preparing for SCJP?

Hi
My name is Jon T and I am a programmer with a local company. I support and develop client�s applications. I use the following in daily process
Unix (HP-UX)
Oracle (Toad)
VB
ASP
etc ..
I have a basic foundation in Java and I am learning and preparing for Java Certificates.
Has anybody passed the test successfully who started from the beginning level?
Say, if I started today, is it possible to pass the test by May/June?

I agree if you are programmer and study an hour or 2(include reading and doing programming practice).
You need to read the book for SCJP. It is better if you can use the quiz and got a score close
to 90%.People recommend the test from whizlab and you have to pay fee.
The questions in the quiz is close to the exam in SCJP and it may help you familiar with the concept.
The book written by Kathy Sierra is good.
There are some free quizs on the internet. I myself have not bought the quiz from whizlab. I succeeded in SCJP 1.4 after one retry.

Give good suggestion for prepare for SCJP and meterials?

what are good sites for Scjp preparation ?

Hi,
Be a good programmer rather than being a certified person.
I don't know y people give much importance to SCJP.
In my opinion any technical sound person can clear this exam with little bit of concentration on basics.
For an entry level professional it is not at all advisable to go for SCJP. Instead work on analytical skills , technical skills development .
After getting experience it is better to go for certification, if he really wants to fill a resume with one more coloumn

Best way to prepare for SJCP 1.4

Hello All,
I'm planning on taking the SJCP 1.4 exam and was wanting some current feedback on preparation on the exam. I have a couple of books and the Whizlabs exam software.
How much time should I expect to put in to prepare and is the Whizlabs software good? If I can pass the Whizlabs test with a certain score am I really ready to take the actual exam? I didn't pass the diagnostic exam on my first try, so I think I've got my work cut out for me.
Thanks,
James

Well I had read reviews previous on download.com and
their was complaints about the some of the answers
provided. There were also some pretty dodgy reviews.
Never trust anonymous "ratings" and "reviews". Often they're extremely skewed towards the negative because the majority of people taking part in such exercises (especially online) are those with a grudge, those who are not happy with a product.
It's not like formal consumer opinion polls where a group of people is approached at random (selected from the entire (potential) customer base) and asked their opinion, instead the respondents select themselves.
I think Javaranch hosts only decent exams for SCJPThey don't host anything, but link to external sites. Last time I checked (which is several years ago) most were indeed decent.
and the whole site is excellent for SCJP,Except the moderation is weird and tends towards moderators banning people for personal grudges, even simply because you disagree with them.

I have a 27 in. iMac with the latest version of Snow Leopard. When Lion comes out, will it be software I purchase and download online? I am trying to prepare for cost and don't have a point of reference, having been a Windows guy until last summer.

I want to know what to expect in terms of moving from one OS to another. Having been a Windows guy until last summer, my only experience is going from one version of Windows to another, which is usually a fairly costly purchase. I will want to go to Lion, but as a retired teacher, my income is fixed. I am not looking for a specific price, I am sure that is unknown, but I would just like to know help Apple does these things so I won't be sadly surprised.

Historically Apple has sold OS X upgrades via DVD media however with the advent of the Mac Apple Store that throws another possibility into the mix. That's about as much as I can say as these forums don't allow us to speculate about future products. As for the cost historically Apple has priced OS X upgrades between $29-$129, the last upgrade (Snow Leopard) was only $29 but that was an exception. Again we cannot speculate on these forums about that. The good news is that Apple is unlike Microsoft which makes OS upgrades expensive and complicated. The choice with OS X is do you want a server version (most users don't need one) or a single computer license. The users that buy server versions tend to have a number of Macs they manage from a server, most consumers don't have this issue.
Keep reading the news, as you know Apple has announced a Summer release for Lion.
Upgrades on OS X are usually very simple. I've upgraded from Tiger to Leopard to Snow Leopard and each transition has been very easy. With any major OS upgrade there are some basic rules to follow, for example always, always, always backup prior to any update. When Lion is released to the general public post again for what to do to prepare or even do a Google search on "How to prepare for OS X upgrade" and you will find a number of articles that will provide some suggestions and valuable insight. You can also re-post here and users will be happy to assist.

When sharing iMovie11 project with iDVD inmediately message 'the project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred (Error in user parameter list). Finalize issue?

The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred.

I have just loaded iLife 09 on my MAC. I've edited a movie and now want to export it, put it in iTunes, whatever I can do to move it beyond my laptop. No matter what option I choose under Share I get the same error message, "The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-2009)". I can find the error message online, but not the (-2009) error code. I'm also a longtime PC person who has just switched to a MAC. Can anyone help?

I also am having the exact same problem. iMovie '09. I have tried changing permissions on all sharing folders, exporting to desktop, sharing to iTunes in all size files - and yet still get "Unable to prepare project for publishing. error (-2009).

DAG - Backup failing on 1 DB only with error - The Microsoft Exchange Replication service VSS Writer instance ID failed with error code 80070020 when preparing for a backup of database 'DB012'

Hi Board,
i´ve search across the board, technet and symantec sites but did not found a hint about my problem.
we drive a 2 node DAG (Location1-Ex1-mb1
Location2-exc1-mb1), on SP2 RU4 patchlevel with 40 Databases.
Since some time the backup of one - and only one DB - is failing with these events, logged on the Mailboxserver on which the passive DB is hosted.

The Microsoft Exchange Replication service VSS Writer (Instance 42916d80-36c1-4f73-86d0-596d30226349) failed with error 80070020 when preparing for a backup.
The backup Application - Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3 – states, this error
Snapshot provider error (0xE000FED1): A failure occurred querying the Writer status.
Check the Windows Event Viewer for details.
Writer Name: Exchange Server, Writer ID: {76FE1AC4-15F7-4BCD-987E-8E1ACB462FB7}, Last error: The VSS Writer failed, but the operation can be retried (0x800423f3), State: Stable (1).
Symatec suggests within http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH184095
to restart the MS Exchange Replication Service – BUT the mentioned eventID
8229 isn´t present on any of the both Mailboxservers.
The affected Database is active on Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server and in an overall healthy state. I found during my research, that below Location2-Exc1-Mb1 Server, there are not removed shadow copies present!
This confuses me, since all Backups are normally taken from the passive copy of a Database.
So my questions to the board are:
* Does anyone is facing similar issues?
* Can someone explain why snapshots are present on the Mailboxserver hosting the Active Database, whilst the errors are logged on the passive one?
-          * Does someone know the conditions, why shadows copies remain and
aren´t removed in a proper manner?
What can cause the circumstance, that only 1 DB is facing such issues?
Any suggestion is welcome!

Hi Lenora,
I´ve encreases VSS / Exchange Backup Log levels to expert, before starting
those things i´ve all tried now:
- Backup from passive DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from passive DB without GRT enabled (forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
- Backup from active DB without GRT enabled(forced within Symantec Backup Exec)
All those attempts failed.
But brought some more details - the backup against the active DB states, that there is still a backup in progress and therefore this backup is cancelled by VSS.
The Solution was, that i´ve needed to restart the Exchange Replication Service on the Mailbox Server hosting the passive DB.
Backups are working again on all DBs!
THX for your replys.
Best regards
Markus

Vera,
Use View > View Options, and set 'Sort By" to "Manual Order."
Then you will be able to drag-n-drop songs up and down the list.

HT1998 Time machine no longer backs up. It prepares for back up OK but then fails to complete. The archive is still available. Any ideas? Thanks

Unfortunately, not much to go on here. There are any of twenty different reasons why backups are not occurring, and no shortcuts that I know of to find out why.
Work your way through Backup Failures in Pondini's excellent support document Time Machine --- Troubleshooting.
