Problems converting 1242AP from LWAPP to Autonomous

I tried to downgrade a 1242 LAP to Autonomous through a WLC using cisco's brief instructions:
Step 1 Log into the CLI on the controller to which the access point is associated.
Step 2 Enter this command:
config ap tftp-downgrade tftp-server-ip-address filename access-point-name
Seems easy enough, i copied the IOS file (c1240-k9w7-tar.123-7.JA5.tar) to my TFTP root. Then i ran the command mentioned above from the CLI of the WLC. The WLC takes the command but nothing happens, if i hold down mode and reboot the AP it retains its previous settings? Any ideas?

In the end i ended up using the a version of the IOS that was one iteration older and it worked......bizzare

Problem converting links from Word 02 to Acrobat 7

Hello All,
I have this problem that is driving me nuts. I am working with Word 2002 and Acrobat 7 Pro.
When I create internal links within the word document (terms linked to the glossary) and PDF using the PDF toolbar (change settings to include bookmarks and links, no security). The PDF only converts some of the links, and it is never consistent. My co-worker has the same problem, but her links that don't come in vary from mine (word 2003 acrobat 7).
This doesn't happen to all documents with links, the website links work perfectly.
Any ideas?
thanks,
dkelley_2

I created the links in word, pressed the PDF Maker ("Adobe PDF" Button on toolbar), changed conversion settings: Standard, (all check but "Attach source file to PDF"), Security None, Word Tab (all checked but "Convert displayed comments to notes in the PDF"), Bookmarks were selected, clicked OK, clicked "Convert to PDF."
If you look at my original post, I attached screenshots of the PDF Maker dialog box.

Problems converting song from AAC to MP3 in iTunes

hi,
I have just downloaded some songs from the iTunes store and they download in the AAC format, I usually right hand click on a song and convert it to MP3 file, however I have one song "animal by neon trees" that it keeps coming up with an error but it says it is an unknown error. this is what it says
error occured while converting the file "animal". an unknown error occurred (-3)
has anyone else encountered this issue??
please help
ps. i have the latest version of itunes, i have also converted other songs today not a problem.

Hi affilgraph,
Yes, it can be done. First, go to iTunes preferences, choose "Advanced", click on the "Import" Tab and select "MP3 encoder" next to "Import Using". Close the window. Now select the files in questions, go to the "Advanced" menu and choose "Convert selection to MP3". However, if your files are already encoded to AAC this will not decrease the size of your library significantly AND you will lose sound quality. In addition, converting your library in one go might bring your computer to its knees risking data loss. So, I would recommend buying a bigger HD instead.

Help problem converting programm from test to live

Hi
I have been working for about four months on a website. It worked fine on the test machine so the decission was made to transfer it to the test machine. And thats where it went wrong. At first I thought it had something todo with the database connection and that the setting were simply wrong.
After some testing I found out that the database connection is working fine. There seems to be a syntax error when try to call a stored procedure. This is weird since the procedures worked fine on the test machine. Does anyone have any idea what this problem could be?
Thx Babette
This is the error:
Error uitvoeren query: nulljava.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '{'.
Here is a code example for getting a category but I think the same error goes for all stored procedures
UserBean
public String getCategoryDescription(int id)
     String test = null;
     try
     CategoryBean category = new CategoryBean(con);
          category.getCategory(id);
     catch(SQLException sql)
          test = test + sql.toString();
     return test;
Category Class
* Calls stored procedure for all categories
* @return All columns for each category category
* @throws java.sql.SQLException
public ResultData getCategoryOverview() throws SQLException
     CallableStatement cs = null;
     ResultSet rs = null;
     cs = con.prepareCall( "{ call BD_ADMINISTRATOR.CATEGORY_OVERVIEW }" );
     cs.execute();
     rs = cs.getResultSet();
     ResultData queryCategory = new ResultData();
     queryCategory.processResults(rs);
     rs.close();
     cs.close();
     rs = null;
     cs = null;
     return queryCategory;
Stored procedure
CREATE PROCEDURE BD_ADMINISTRATOR.GET_CATEGORY
@ID INT
AS
SELECT * FROM PROJECT_CATEGORY WHERE CATEGORY_NO = @ID
GO
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So nou I found out that on the Live machine JDBC service pack 1 is installed. This is not installed on the testmachine could this cause a problem?
Thx babette

Problems converting templates from dot to dotx - concerning tables

I have a lot of templates where bodytext and tables are mixed.
Word standard (to 2010) was that a table starts 0,19 cm left of left margin and since the tablecell has a standard indent of 0,19 cm from left the text in the table alignes with the bodytext above or under the table.
When using Save as to convert a dot to a dotx file in Word 2013 the position of the table changes so it starts at the left margin but still has 0,19 indent in the cell.
The result is that text in the table ends up with an indent of 0,19 which not alignes the rest of the text.
The solution is not to change the cell indent to 0 since the text then is to Close to a possible border.
Is there any explaination or solution out there?
Thanks!

Problems converting catalog from PSE8 to PSE 12

I've upgraded from PSE8 to PSE12. I've just tried converting one of my 10 or so catalogs - all are stored in custom locations on an external drive, since the total file size for all my images is larger than my C: drive's capacity - with awful results:
a.     there is now a copy of my folder structure and all files from the catalog in a folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs. Not at all what I want, and if I convert the rest of my catalogs it will fail when C: drive becomes full.
b.     my converted catalog has no ratings on any images.
c.     my tags and tag heirarchy have disappeared.
Each of these issues is completely unacceptable. There are literally thousand of hours of work in all my catalogs, which I cannot repeat. How can I convert my previous catalogs to PSE12 versions, retaining all ratings, tags and tag structure, and without duplicating every image file?
Rob

I had already tried optimizing the catalog, repariing the catalog, re-indexing visual simularity data and making sure there were no missing files. Basically everything I found at: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/common-catalog-issues-upgrade-elements.html
I also used the Mac OS X Disk Utility to make sure there were no disk errors.
I have Parallels Desktop running on my Mac so I installed the Windows version of PSE12 and used it to convert the catalog of 63,000 pictures in under an hour. That put the catalog in a new location so I just moved the catalog from the Windows location to the Mac location. Now PSE12 on the Mac can access the new catalog and is working as expected.

Changing from LWAPP to autonomous

Convert from LAP to autonomous mode issue

I bought some after market 1242's for extended coverage in my warehouse. The current 1242's I have are all set up in autonomous mode.
When I console into the AP's I bought they are looking for a CAPWAP -Controller obviously from the previous environment. There is nothing on the AP or in the sh version showing LAP.
*Mar 1 00:46:37.102: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Did not get log server settings from DHCP.

#sh version

System image file is "flash:/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx
I cant seem to be able to reset these to where they aren't looking for the Controller. I can login with the default username and password Cisco/Cisco but I cant do an erase. I get the privileged command prompt but cant do erase star or a config t??? Is there something I'm missing here that I need to to?
So far these commands have worked::
debug capwap console cli
debug capwap client no-reload
So can I downgrade or go back to autonomous mode or do I have to reload an IOS again? I don't have a license so my options there are limited.
Any ideas??? Thanks

HI,
As pe your post:
System image file is "flash:/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx/c1240-rcvk9w8-mx
This is lightweight image. for this image you need controller.
If you want to use as autonomous AP. Then you must convert it to Autonomous mode.
Autonomous image code : k9w7
More about images:

Roll-back LWAPP to Autonomous IOS and retain a configuration

I have a WLC-4404-100 with a mix of c1131 and c1232 access points associated. All my AP's are LWAPP (either ordered as LWAPP or converted from IOS to LWAPP), and I have just realised that I have more than 100 AP's to be rolled out. I know that an LWAPP AP can be converted back to Autonomous IOS, but cannot seem to find a definitive explanation about the configuration state of the AP after it has been converted back to Autonomous IOS.
I wish to convert some of my AP's which have already been setup to connect to my controller back to Autonomous IOS. My problem is that they are already rolled out and installed in ceiling spaces etc, and are not easy to physically get to and plug into the console. When I issue the 'config ap tftp-downgrade tftp-server-ip-address filename access-point-name' command on the controller CLI for an AP, when it boots up into autonomous IOS, what is the configuration state? Is it a blank "factory default" configuration, or does it retain a configuration based on how it was configured on the controller? Will I be able to remotely access the AP over the wire at all?
Thanks in advance.

Try the following steps:
LWAPP to Autonomous
Requirements:
â¢ Image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar);
â¢ AP is connected to the Wireless LAN Controller; and
â¢ AP can ping the TFTP server where the image is located.
Procedures:
1. Find out what AP needs to be converted from LWAPP to Autonomous mode by entering the following command:
sh ap summary
2. Enter the following CLI command on the Wireless LAN Controller:
config ap tftp-downgrade
3. The AP will download the software and after a reboot, the AP will be on Autonomous mode.
Does this help?

1250 LWAPP TO AUTONOMOUS

Hi,
I can't seem to find the image for upgrading a 1250 from LWAPP to Autonomous?
Also do I need the upgrade tool? If so where can I find it? (No Controller)
Please can someone point me in the right direction?
Many Thanks.

jcomment,
There is an IOS image for the 1250 series AP on cisco's site, you must have a CCO account to access this. If you have access to that goto www.cisco.com, click on support> Download Software> Wireless> Access Points> Cisco Aironet 1250 Series> Cisco Aironet 1250 Series Access Point
then select IOS Software and you should get a list of versions.
In terms of converting this the easiest way is to use the mode button and do a reset.
Step 1 set your computer to 10.0.0.100 255.255.255.0
Step 2 Place image file into a TFTP server folder on your PC.
Step 3 Rename the access point image file in the TFTP server folder to c1250-k9w7-tar.default.
Step 4 Using an ethernet cable connect your PC to the power injector/AP
Step 5 Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 6 Press and hold the MODE button while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 7 Hold the MODE button until the Radio LED turns a red color (approximately 20 to 30 seconds), and release the MODE button.
Step 8 it will download the firmware image and decompress it.
Step 9 After the access point reboots, you must reconfigure the access point by using the Web interface, the Telnet interface, or Cisco IOS commands.
Hope this helps.... Please rate helpful posts.

Converting byte from dec to hex

Hi All,
I'm having a problem converting byte from decimal to hex - i need the following result:
if entered 127 (dec), the output should be 7f (hex).
The following method fails, of course because of NumberFormatException.
    private byte toHexByte(byte signedByte)
        int unsignedByte = signedByte;
        unsignedByte &= 0xff;
        String hexString = Integer.toHexString(unsignedByte);
        BigInteger bigInteger = new BigInteger(hexString);
        //byte hexByte = Byte.parseByte(hexString);
        return bigInteger.byteValue();
    }

get numberformatexception because a lot of hex digits cannot be transformed into int just like that (ie f is not a digit in decimal) heres some code that i used for a pdp11 assembler IDE... but this is for 16-bit 2s complement in binary/octal/decimal/hex , might be useful for reference as example though
    public static String getBase(short i, int base){
        String res = (i>=0)? Integer.toString((int)i,base)
                : Integer.toString((int)65536+i,base) + " ("+Integer.toString((int)i,base)+")";
       StringBuffer pad= new StringBuffer();
        for(int x = 0; x < 16 - res.length() ; x++){
            pad.append("0");
        res = pad.toString() + res;
        return res;
    }

Hi Mantej,
It does not work with these new APs 1600/2600.
You need to perform these steps:
Restart the Access Point
While it loads the image in flash, press Escape, you’ll enter ROMMON mode:
The system boot has been aborted. The following
commands will finish loading the operating system
software:
ether_init
tftp_init
boot
Set the IP address for the gigabit 0 interface:
ap: set IP_ADDR 10.0.0.1
ap: set netmask 255.255.255.0
Initialize the tftp, ethernet and flash subsystems:
ap: tftp_init
tftp_init success: You can now use tftp file system!
ap: ether_init
Initializing ethernet port 0...
Ethernet speed is 100 Mb - FULL Duplex
ap: flash_init
Initializing Flash...
...The flash is already initialized.
Load the image from TFTP and extract it to flash:
ap: tar -xtract tftp://10.0.0.100/ap3g2-k9w7-tar.152-2.JB.tar flash
After it’s done, set the correct bootimage:
ap: set BOOT flash://ap3g2-k9w7-mx.152-2.JB/ap3g2-k9w7-xx.152-2.JB
Boot the system:
ap: boot

Follow these steps to revert from LWAPP mode to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS release using a TFTP server:
Step 1 The static IP address of the PC on which your TFTP server software runs should be between 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.30.
Step 2 Make sure that the PC contains the access point image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar for a 1200 series access point) in the TFTP server folder and that the TFTP server is activated.
Step 3 Rename the access point image file in the TFTP server folder to c1200-k9w7-tar.default for a 1200 series access point, c1130-k9w7-tar.default for an 1130 series access point, and c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point.
Step 4
Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
Step 5
Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 6
Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 7
Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.
Step 8
Wait until the access point reboots, as indicated by all LEDs turning green followed by the Status LED blinking green.
Step 9
After the access point reboots, reconfigure it using the GUI or the CLI.

Convert APs LWAPP to Autonomous without WLC

How can I convert an Access Point with lightweight version to autonomous without a Controller??
Regards,

Hi Juan Carlos,
No worries my friend, this should work :)
Here is a conversion method;
Reverting the Access Point Back to Autonomous Mode
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/prod_technical_reference09186a00804fc3dc.html#wp161272
You can convert an access point from lightweight mode back to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS Release that supports autonomous mode (Cisco IOS release 12.3(7)JA or earlier). If the access point is associated to a controller, you can use the controller to load the Cisco IOS release. If the access point is not associated to a controller, you can load the Cisco IOS release using TFTP.
Using a TFTP Server to Return to a Previous Release
Follow these steps to revert from LWAPP mode to autonomous mode by loading a Cisco IOS release using a TFTP server:
Step 1 The static IP address of the PC on which your TFTP server software runs should be between 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.30.
Step 2 Make sure that the PC contains the access point image file (such as c1200-k9w7-tar.122-15.JA.tar for a 1200 series access point) in the TFTP server folder and that the TFTP server is activated.
Step 3 Rename the access point image file in the TFTP server folder to c1200-k9w7-tar.default for a 1200 series access point, c1130-k9w7-tar.default for an 1130 series access point, and c1240-k9w7-tar.default for a 1240 series access point.
Step 4 Connect the PC to the access point using a Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable.
Step 5 Disconnect power from the access point.
Step 6 Press and hold MODE while you reconnect power to the access point.
Step 7 Hold the MODE button until the status LED turns red (approximately 20 to 30 seconds) and then release.

Converting 1242ag to and from LWAPP

is this possible, i need to convert a 1242AG Autonomous back and forth this weekend to use for a quick project for testing. i need to do the following
take the AP into LWAPP mode (i know how to do this with the aironet utility)
take the ap from LWAPP back into a AP mode so i can use it as my access point again.
i did some quick looking and i found
debug capwap console cli
debug capwap client no-reload
archive tar /xtract tftp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/APimage.tar flash: delete /force /recursive flash:Current_LWAPPIOS reload
does that sound right?
