Problem with ConfigurationAssistant after Software only install

Hi all,
i have a big problem.
i have an OBI EE System running on Windows 32Bit.
Now i wanted to upgrade OBIEE from 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6.
So i downloaded the particular files from OTN and made a software only install type.
Ok.
Appropriate to the OracleDocs i have to start the ConfigurationAssistant
Than i choose Scale out BI-System, right ?! - Because i just want to upgrade my existing instance. I neither want to create one nor extend the existing BI-System, or?
When i click the next button on the Scale Out BI System Details - Screen it does not work. Having said that the default instace name is instance2, although i only want to keep the existing one, there error is because the directory isn't empty.
Now i can't even log in to the Enterprise Manager or BI Answers. But when i log in into the WebLogicServer Admin i can see that both servers are running.
This is my first time i install/upgrade OBIEE ... Can anyone please help me?

HELP! Problems with MacBook after software updates install.

Hi Guys,
I have a friend of mine that has a MacBook. After a while without doing the software updates she connected her MacBook on the internet and there was a lot of software updates to do, so she went on and install everything. She describes me that the problem was with Tiger 10.4.11, it pop up a "Warning Sign - Error" and freezes she says.
She re-start the computer and It get stuck on the gray window with the Apple with the lil circle spinning endless.
Is there any tip or something that I can help her?...
[Sorry about my english... lol)

Hello coreanomac!
The following Apple Support article is good for working through the problem. Based on your explanation of what happened, follow the advice of the "Try a different software update source" and "Installation fails during 'optimization'" paragraphs of the "Troubleshooting an unsuccessful installation" section:
Mac OS X: Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Also reading the "Before Installing" section may be useful, as well.

Problem with Java after Software Update to 10.5.7

Hi,
I am facing problem with Java after having run Software upgrades.
Here is the whole story. I recently moved to iMac 10.5.6 from PowerPc 10.4. On this new machine I was having problem running a 3rd party application, which requires JVM. As this application worked well on Tiger, I decided to upgrade JVM on my iMAC using Software Upgrade(was I insane!!). As I like my systems to be updated (as with linux on my personal machine) I clicked "install all". As a result I have the following upgrades run on my machine:

Problems with Macbook after Software Update

I haven't updated my Macbook in a long time, so I decided it was time I probably did. Software Update had updates for iTunes, Quicktime, and a 2009-Security Update. Everything seemed to be going okay. After the downloading and installing finished, it said the Security Update couldn't be installed and moved it to the trash. Then it prompted me to restart my computer because the other two installed okay.
After restart, when my computer started back up, my Macbook is messed up. The doc is missing. I open a finder window, and it shows the main folders, but all the things on the right (where it shows the drive, applications, and such) is missing. I tried to back up my files, but it can't even read there is a blank disc inserted (keeps asking me to insert a blank disc). And it wont let me shut down my computer, or restart it. I click restart, and it seems like it accepts it, but it just doesn't do anything. The dashboard wont show up when you hit F12. This mac is all messed up.
I don't know what happened here, all I installed was iTunes and Quicktime from the Software Update (security update didn't install), and all this happened. Any idea what happened and how I can fix this?
I'm using Mac OSX Tiger 10.4.11.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
There's a variety of things you could try, but first as to why it is doing this. Probably your drive was slightly corrupted. If it was minor you might not have noticed it, but when the updates tried to install, the whole thing compounded and led to a whole bunch of things missing.
First, try to repair your drive. Boot from the System installer disc that came with your computer or is the one for the version you currently have on there, select language if applicable, choose utilities, run Disk Utility and verify (and repair if necessary) the drive. You can verify a drive from DU on your main drive while booted but I have found this can result in incorrect reporting of errors. To repair your drive you have to run it from a drive other than the boot drive anyway.
Next, boot from your drive in [Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393] and repair permissions. You can repair permissions while booted from the installer disc but this uses the permissions configuration on the installer disc which may be out of date if you have run any updates on your computer. Booting your computer to Safe Mode restricts the number of things running on your computer while permissions are being run and does a bit of spring cleaning at the same time.

[Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751]
+Summary of above from BDaqua+ (couldn't have said it better):
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes."
Report back after you have done this. It may be that you have to use a more powerful utility such as Diskwarrior.
Once the drive is repaired you can try re-applying the two updates, though often it takes a full archive and install, plus re-application of all updates, to get everything working again.

Finally, on updating:
Updating
Certain steps appear to minimize the risk of an update producing problems.
Number one is to make sure you have a bootable clone backup of your computer in case you do need to back out of it again. This is the only guaranteed way of not having to worry about the results of an update.
Some like to boot from their installer discs or an external backup and verify (and if necessary repair) their internal drives as well as drive permissions. This is done with Disk Utility. You can verify a drive while booted from the same drive but sometimes this produces spurious errors. Repairing a drive (if necessary) has to be done while booted from another disk.

You can also go to the step of booting into safe mode to do the install.

I like to download the update onto my computer and install it from there rather than let Software Update do it. I know a few people who had problems with doing the update via software updater found a manual install to work.
Repair permissions again afterward.
It helps to only install one update at a time and to run the computer for a while to make sure it is behaving well.
The more cautious even like to unplug third party peripherals (see [comment by BDaqua|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9040746#9040746]).
Almost all of the above steps (except backup) have been questioned (e.g., [Permissons repair|http://www.macworld.com/article/52220-3/2006/08/repairpermissions.html] as to necessity. Probably many people have done successful updates without doing them. I say they can't hurt, they can very likely do good (especially if your computer isn't regularly maintained), so why not do them to be safe?

Problem with mail after mountain lion install

Mail has become sluggish to locking up after Mountain Lion install. I get the color wheel each time I start typing in an address to send an email. I also get the wheel when i am typing an address or name in any web page in Safari. Is this a Mail Problem or an Address Book problem?

It sounds like your computer needs to be cleaned up. Have your repaired permissions or cleared caches since you got the computer. Often times when upgrading operating systems permissions get screwed up and it causes issues. Go to disk utility in your "other" folder in applications. Select disk utility, then on the left hand side choose Mac HD then click REPAIR permissions in the center section. Wait for it to finish, restart your computer, then test.

Problems with rv042g after software upgrade

after software upgrade it reboot the router about every 45 sec
I've tried this tool from the Cisco website RV0xxV3_FirmwareRescueUtility_v4.0.0.7 without success, the problem is there, is a way you can get the router up and running again ?
Can i run a TFTP server and upload a new software, or i ther a FirmwareRescueUtility for rv042g ??
Mogens from Demmark

Good morning Mogens Pedersen
Thanks for using our forum
I am a Cisco network support engineer, I have a recommendation, before you upgrade any device in the future. Always keep in mind to make a backup of your data, in this way if you have to reset the device to factory settings you will not lose that information. Having said that, reset the router to the fabric configuration using the back little button, remember when you do that, you are going to loose your current configuration.
Also here I leave a link for you to download the firmware rescue utility for your router:

Problems with N76 after software upgrade of PC Sui...

I downloaded and ran the current Nokia Software Updater which has been installed on my PC and in turn installed and updated all related components.
I then followed the instructions to a tee, backed up files, via content copier, updated my N76 with the latest version of the Device software. Upon the phone restarting, all was good and the phone asked me for my country, state and date and time. When I check Device Manager it advises that I have V31.0.014 and that the Device is Updated with current date. Upon checking the Sync folder Lifeblog and PC Suite are both DEFINE and dated.
Before having had a chance to restore from my backup, I received some text messages with pics which I uploaded to my PC Lifeblog with no problems.
I then restored the backup file with great ease, so that I could have my contacts etc back on my phone.
Only problem is that it seems like not only files are restored but also any previous phone settings. I have gone through the whole process three times and each time I restore when I check the Device Manager it tells me that the phone has previous version on it and that the Device has not been updated. Also when I check the Sync folder it tells me that the PC suite (is not defined)and if I try to change any settings manually it advises that the profiles are READ ONLY.
HOW CAN I FIX THIS IT IS DRIVING ME NUTS!

Hey, did you get this fixed?

Problems with startup after software update

I have just done a software update on my system, and now going back to my computer 2 hours later and turning it on, all I get is the grey screen with the apple and dial spinning...........
Also the fans in the tower are going nuts.
Is this normal for updates since leopard, seeing as I have never had this happen to me before

No, that's not normal. It could be hardware. Shutdown.
Run Apple Hardware Test:
1. Disconnect all external devices from your iMac except the keyboard and mouse.
If you have an Ethernet cable connected, disconnect it.
2. Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 that came with your iMac.
3. Restart your iMac and hold down the D key as your iMac starts up.
4. When the Apple Hardware Test chooser screen appears, select the language
appropriate for your location.
5. Press the Return key or click the right arrow button.
6. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen appears (after about 45 seconds), follow
the onscreen instructions.
7. Apple Hardware Test displays an error code if it detects a problem. Make a note of the
error code before pursuing support options.
Let us know.

BIG problems with setup after Archive and Install

It all began when I was preparing a G3 iMac to be used - as a trial - by a Windows user. I wanted to preserve the existing accounts so created a new user. I then forgot the new user password (didn't write it down, did I) and had already set it up to go straight to the login screen on boot. Do you think I could then remember the user name of the original account(this time I knew the password)? I researched and was able to set up a new password for the System Administrator via the Install Disk, and hoped that it would show me the existing user names - it didn't. Despite my best efforts, I was still unable to login. By this stage, the gremlins were really getting to me.
I then decided to do an Archive and Clean Install - after I had repaired disk permissions, disk etc. So far so good, as everything seemed to go OK and the Mac restarted and presented the Welcome screen and I proceeded with setup, like it was a brand new Mac.
After going through the first couple of screens where Apple collects information and moving onto where you can start setting up accounts, the thing just hangs with a blank screen with a grey horizontal line about two-thirds down prior to actually reaching this account setup stage. In spite of every other attempt, I just cannot past this stage. Truly weird.
Next, I upgraded my Firewire Disk from OS9 to OSX using the same installation disks and everything went swimmingly, including the creation of accounts. I have been able to boot normally from this Firewire disk and can see everything on my internal HD. I tried reinstalling the OS again - it still hangs in exactly the same set up stage - "siiigh". I'm now getting seriously ****** off with this process and have more or less decided to clone all the appropriate files from the internal HD, erase the drive and start all over again!
I really don't want to go to this level, and besides, I'm really curious to find out what on earth has gone wrong, and hope forum members can help me out here. I appreciate all responses..... Thanks

Seems the HD is bad, but whether it could be fixed by Erasing and using the Zero Data Option, once... only time will tell.
IDE HDs don't last all that long... 4 year old ones make me hold my breath!
Thanks for your reply. If the internal drive is bad, why didn't it show up when I ran Disk Utility repair? I don't think I'll try to resurrect it now if that is a possibility.
I had thought of swapping the drive in the Firewire case into the iMac and vice-versa. I have to say that this G3 has now been replaced by a newish MacBook - chiefly to preserve using Tiger (with Classic support) for all the legacy items that my partner was using on the G3. My partner's 91 y.o. mother will be visiting from Perth (the other side of Oz from us) and loves using the Mac, so I now propose the following:
1. Retrieve critical files (if any left) from the G3 internal HD;
2. Swap the drive as above - mind you, I've never changed an HD in an iMac, but after 20 years of mucking around with all sorts of Macs, fancy my chances here - especially as I come from the READ THE MANUAL school of support.
3. Buy a new IDE HD for the Firewire case, load it up with troubleshooting apps. which would then give me a tool for looking after our other Macs.
Any other suggestions?

Problems with iTunes after Win7 Re-install

I had to re-install windows 7 and now I can't get my music into iTunes. I know where the media is but everything I try doesn't get in imported. I'm afraid to hook up my iPhone and iPad until I get iTunes running right again. I've tried changing the location and consolidating and a number of other things.
Can someone help?

why not try downloading it again and just installing

Problems with macbook after snow leopard install

Hi,
I recently upgraded my macbook. Saved and backed up everything from my old one and then loaded snow leopard onto the new one. Since loading snow leopard my optus wireless internet is refusing to work (Saying it has quit and wont reload), my photos in iphoto are showing up as thumbnails but not letting me see them or save them as jpegs and a lot of programs are quitting unexpectedly as i am working on them.
My biggest concerns are with my photos and internet.
Anyone know some solutions? I am a bit of an amateur with all this and don't know a lot of jargon. THanks

no, i think donv means what kind of machines new and old you have. look at the profiles of most users here - they describe in more or less detail what Macs they have and what CPUs etc. All this would be helpful for donv to advise you according to your need.
As for moving your data to the new machine, check this link http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2169737

Problem with Java after System Upgrade to 10.5.7

Hi,
I am facing problem with Java after having run Software upgrades.
Here is the whole story. I recently moved to iMac 10.5.6 from PowerPc 10.4. On this new machine I was having problem running a 3rd party application, which requires JVM. As this application worked well on Tiger, I decided to upgrade JVM on my iMAC using Software Upgrade(was I insane!!). As I like my systems to be updated (as with linux on my personal machine) I clicked "install all". As a result I have the following upgrades run on my machine:

But now, simply running $ java on the prompt hangs, i.e. it takes no action.
$ which java
/usr/bin/java
$ ls -ltr /usr/bin/java
May 20 15:09 /usr/bin/java -> /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Commands/java
$java (no response)
Here is the output of $ top
PID COMMAND %CPU TIME #TH #PRTS #MREGS RPRVT RSHRD RSIZE VSIZE
703 java 98.8% 0:38.54 3 110 72 480K 184K 1964K 40M
Any clues?
cheers

Hi man,
In the wake of this java problem I resorted to keep working on my old machine, and today in my spare time I tried to fix this new machine.
So I execute $java on prompt, and then try to check the files it has opened, using lsof -p pid
I see it referring to
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
isn't this usually the JAVA_HOME
However, executing $/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
hangs!!
but
$/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/bin/java
works!!
$ pwd
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home/bin
$ ./java -version
java version "1.6.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06-153)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_07-b06-57, mixed mode)
So, I changed the links as follows
borgraf:Versions raveesh$ l
total 72
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 Mar 6 2008 1.3.1
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 May 21 19:42 1.4.1 -> 1.4

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1 May 21 19:44 OldCurrent -> A

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 Jun 4 17:14 CurrentJDK -> 1.6
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 Jun 4 17:21 Current -> 1.6
Linking my Current and CurrentJDK to 1.6 and it works!
However, shall that be the reason!
what is in your /Versions/Current/
I got the following
$ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current
CodeResources Frameworks JavaVM
Commands Headers Resources
There is no /Home in here, which is usually the case for /1.5 or /1.6
Anyways, things seems to work for the moment. Lets see if I get problem with using Java.
thanks
