Problems moving from Solaris 2.5.1 to 2.7

Most of our workstations are still running Solaris 2.5.1 and cannot be upgraded 2.7 because of the following problem;
Any SPARC programs (e.g. the one to generate version.h) fail to
compile. They give an error message like
In file included from
/vobs/tools/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/2.7.2/include/time.h:90,
from
/vobs/source/sw/common/version/version.cc:17:
/usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:74: syntax error before `*'
Upon looking at siginfo.h, you see that pthread_attr_t is undefined.
This can be defined by #includeing <pthread.h>.
We think this is because these programs use our OS subsystem. This is
written to the obsolete SunOS threads interface. UNIX vendors
standardised on the POSIX threads one years ago. It looks like Sun
are beginning to discontinue support for the old interface.
We believe that Sun promise source
compatibility provided you keep to the documented interface. So I guess
we didn't do this.
Has anyone else run into this problem? or know of a way around it. We are concerned that new Sun hardware will not support Solaris 2.5.1 and third part software tools will also soon stop supporting their applications on 2.5.1.
Regards, and thanks.

Problem Moving From the Standard Edition to the Enterprise Edition

Hi !
I am trying to move from Oracle 10g R2 10.2.0.1 Standard Edition to Oracle 10g R2 10.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition.
Platform is MS Windows XP PRO SP2
I follow all steps described in "Oracle® Database Upgrade Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2)" - section Moving From the Standard Edition to the Enterprise Edition.
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/intro.htm#sthref10
The problem is that after update from St. edition to Ent. edition when I run:
select * from v$version - I see :
Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
while I expect to see something like .....
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining Scoring Engine options
Am I wrong ? Why information in view v$version does not update after this ?
Regards,
Phil

In your document you refer to the upgrade guide, this upgrade guide applies when you are upgrading from previous Oracle releases to 10g, not SE->EE.
If you want a procedure to upgrade the SE to EE, then follow this metalink note:
"How to Upgrade from Standard to Enterprise Edition ?
Doc ID: Note:117048.1"
If you performed this specific upgrade and you still see this error, then probably you are facing a bug, similar to the one described in "5844095", where the version is changed form SE->EE after 10.2.0.3 patchset application.
In your case it should be enough to apply 10.2.0.3 patchset to show it properly.

Problems moving from 1.3.1 to 1.4 (StreamCorruptedException)

Hi all,
I'm having a terrible time moving my existing project from 1.3 to 1.4. The GUI (running on W2k) works fine, but the server side of the app (running on Solaris 2.6 w/ current patches & Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)) is giving me fits in a couple of places. The app has been in production for over a year using 1.3.1.
Everything has gone smoothly with the exception of a couple of problems that I just can't seem to get around. Namely, I get UnmarshalExceptions with nested StreamCorruptedExceptions on some of the RMI calls. Everything I send across the wire implements Serializable.
I got around the first one - Sending an array of objects that each had as a member variable a java.text.MessageFormat object blew up with the before mentioned exception. Wierd thing is, if I send just one of those objects it's not a problem, only when sending an array of them is it bad. Changing the type to String and then creating MessageFormat objects from those strings lazily on the client got around the problem. (yuck)
Anyways, I now have two more issues similar to the above mentioned that I can't seem to find a work-around for. These objects only contain data members of primitive and/or String type. They also implement Serializable, so I can't understand what the problem is. Below is a copy of the exception I'm getting.

I've utilized 1.4's ability to getCause(), get the StackTraceElement[] of it, and iterate to see what is present in the "...6 more". If anyone needs to see that to help me, I'll gladly post it as well.
Thanks in advance for any assistance, I've spent way too much time working on this issue.

I found this thread while searching for an answer to my question and I am wondering if there is any update. Here is my situation...
We have a 100% Java application which utilizes RMI only. It has been running in production on the 1.2.2 JDK for over four years in many operating environments (Solaris 8, 9, Windows 9x, 2K and XP, Linux).
We have finally decided to bite the bullet and upgrade the app to 1.4.2 (specifically the _04 release).
We are getting the StreamCorruptedException consistently. After narrowing the problem we have uncovered that the issue is, indeed, directly related to java.text.Format decendants (in this case SimpleDateFormat and DecimalFormat.
We have a class (call it OurClass)which includes a SimpleDateFormat instance. SimpleDateFormat implements Serializable (as does OurClass). When an object of OurClass is enstantiated an instance of SimpleDateFormat is created. When this class is passed as a parameter to a server call and needs to be serialized the StreamCorruptedException is thrown. If we comment out the "new SimpleDateFormat()" the code completes successfully.
The same is true for DecimalFormat.
What gives? This thread started in late '02 and was last addressed here in early '03. I see that someone posted that some problems can be expected in RMI over IIOP but we have a Java-to-Java RMI-only application.

Problems moving from 8.0.4 JDBC to 8i JDBC

Hi all,
we have an application that runs against an 8.0.4 database
connecting over the 8.0.4 thin jdbc driver. We ar moving it to 8i
and as a 'first cut' I exported the data from 8.0.4 and imported
it to 8i without any problems. All the tables and their data were
present and all PL/SQL procedures present and with 'VALID@
status. I then replaced the 8.0.4 classes111.zip in the classpath
with the 8i classes111.zip. What now appears to happen is that
all 'direct' sql statements in java work without any problem but
one using prepared statements i.e. ones that call a PL/SQL stored
procedure, fail with an ora-00942 "Table or view does not exist"
exception. Any one have any ideas about this?
cheers

As far as I know, that was done... at least all of the KNOWN/FINDABLE registry entries were removed. The only registry entries that I can find point to the SUPPOSED new Oracle ODBC driver: d:\orant\BIN\SQORA32.DLL and the Setup dll: d:\orant\BIN\SQORAS32.DLL. Are these incorrect? Are there hidden entries that I and the DBA haven't found? Which begs the question: why doesn't the Oracle uninstaller get rid of EVERYTHING?
Thanks,

Conversion problem moving from CS3 to CS4 - adding files to book

I had a script which was working beautifully in CS3. Now we've moved to CS4 and it refuses to cooperate with me. I've tried a solution offered on the forum but it's not working for me.
        // Creating book
        var myBookFileName = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW.indd";
         myBookFile = new File( myBookFileName );
        myBook = app.open( myBookFile );
         myBook = app.books.add( myBookFile );
        // Add the front cover
        myFilename = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW_Cover.indd";
        myFile = File(myFilename);
        myBook.bookContents.add( myFile);
        // Add the rest of the individual files
For some reason, when it gets to the bookContents.add statement, it opens up a SaveAs dialog. I'm wondering if this is a setting within InDesign CS4 rather than a script issue.
I'd really appreciate any idea.
B

It looks like you're trying to add an existing CS3 document to a new CS4 book. InDesign wants to save the CS3 document in CS4 and so gives you the Save As dialog. You can either go through all the existing CS3 documents you'll be adding and save them out from CS4, or add a few lines to the script that will do it. (Change the variable name I used if it's used somewhere else in your script.)
// Creating book
var myBookFileName = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW.indd";
myBookFile = new File( myBookFileName );
myBook = app.open( myBookFile );
myBook = app.books.add( myBookFile );
// Add the front cover
myFilename = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW_Cover.indd";
myFile = File(myFilename);
// Save cover document in current version
myDoc = app.open(myFile,false);
myDoc.save(myFile)); // will overwrite CS3 file with CS4 file
myDoc.close();
myBook.bookContents.add(myFile);
// Add the rest of the individual files
I didn't test this code. Let me know if you have problems.

Rwrun not working with permission as we moved from solaris 9 to solaris10-

we moved our setup from solaris9 to solaris10.

Do I need to copy this exec from solaris10 , if yes where can I get it

So I finally gave up with BT and as much as I dislike Rupert Murdoch, felt I had little choice but to move to Sky after the appalling customer service from BT.
I have one remaining problem though.
when the engineer installed BT vision about a year ago he said we would LOSE a telephone point downstairs.
I dont know why - is it a BT vision thing?
This was annoying as we have to run upstairs to answer the phone before it cuts out - quite a challenge.
At the time this seemed incredibly poor and I included it in my complaints about miss-selling of BT infinity, only to never get it actioned and told it was a "technical issue"
The Sky engineer arrived today to install Sky, but because this phone socket was disconnected downstairs in our living room when BT vision was installed he couldnt install Sky.
so I call BT and after the usual 15-20 minutes on hold, finally get through to be told they can't send an engineer out to put this back as I'm no longer a customer.
My services do not officially move until the 1st of October, which I explained.
All I'm asking is for BT to make the telephone point they made inactive active again.
I was advised to call Sky who would then call BT wholesale to arrange an engineer.
I have no fatih in this happening any time soon - If BT wont send an engineer out when I call why will they if Sky call them?
Has anyone experienced this kind of craziness?
I go on holiday soon and need an engineer out ASAP but it seems impossible to get anyone at BT to own this problem.
I sometimes feel like I'm actually going mad when I speak to BT.
Is there a direct email address, or telephone number where I wont be on hold for 20 minutes?
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.

Problems moving from 2 independent drives to RAID1 configuration

Hi: My NAS200 has been running successfully configured as two independent drives: Public Disk 1/ and Public Disk 2/. I will refer to these as PD1 and PD2. I mostly use PD1 and have been using PD2 to make occasional backups of PD1 (I didn't like the idea of running in mirrored Raid1 mode based on a prior experience). Today I was trying to clone the contents of PD1 and decided to try turning on the RAID1 function, thinking it would make an exact duplicate of PD1 on PD2. My plan was to then break up the RAID mirror again and end up with two identical copies of PD1. However, after the RAID mirroring finished (took about 6 hours), I can no longer see PD1 or PD2 on the mirrored disks, nor Public Disk (PD) for that matter. Can anyone tell me what has happened and how I might recover from it? I have access to a SATA-USB converter and can use it to mount each individual disk onto either a linux or Windows system (via ext2ifs software). When I do this (on Windows), I see that there are three partitions on the disk, and I can name them with ext2ifs, but I can't see any of the contents. I'm currently running DiskInternals Linux Recovery 2.7 on Windows and it is scanning the disk for lost files. It seems to be finding data, but is running very slowly (20 minutes for 3%). Any leads appreciated. Thanks in advance! Maurice Lampell
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The file system is XFS if you have the NAS200 configured for journaled file system, or ext2 if you are using unjournaled file system. ext2ifs can read (and write?) ext2 under Windows but XFS is not supported by any Windows software that I'm aware of.
The RAID configuration is independent from the journaled vs non-journaled configuration: you can have journaled non-raid, journaled raid, non-journaled non-raid and non-journaled raid. RAID configurations are implemented using mdadm.
You can download a SystemRescueCD image from the link in my signature to access the files on the disks from a PC. You burn that image to a CD and boot from it. SystemRescueCD understands SATA disks connected via a USB-SATA dongle, you just need to be able to boot from a CD-ROM drive which is something that all PCs less than about 10 years old can do. SystemRescueCD supports all the necessary file systems and I believe it automatically tries to mount any RAID-formatted disks. The partitions on the hard disk are (1) your data, (2) configuration files and (3) swap. So if you want to recover files, you can ignore the second and third partitions.
I don't think the NAS can convert the configuration from separate disks to RAID without reformatting, so the files that were there in separate-disk mode are propbably lost. You may need another tool to recover the files.
I don't know why your Public Disk shares don't show up, unless you made a change to the configuration so that the shares are hidden from your user name. If you have the web GUI configured to hide the share from guest logins, then maybe you're logged in as guest because you have "change failed logins to guest logins" enabled; you should disable this option.
Your plan of mirroring the disks and then breaking the mirror to put one of the drives away as backup is not a good one, IMHO (and by the way, you really shouldn't remove the drive while the NAS is running). When the NAS loses a drive from the RAID, it will try to rebuild the RAID as soon as you restart with a second drive installed, and it will give the existing drive priority over the older one, so instead of restoring a backup after you lose your files, it will overwrite the backup with the other drive's data so you lose the lost files from the backup too. Also, rebuilding a mirror takes extremely long on the NAS200. It's better to use Separate Disks and run a scheduled backup from one disk to the other; if you delete a file by accident you only have to retrieve that one lost file which takes seconds instead of hours.
===Jac
Frequent NAS200 Answers:
1. DISABLE the "convert failed logins to guest logins" option to fix permission problems.
2. NEVER insert or remove hard disks while the power is on. NAS200 doesn't support hot swapping.
3. ALWAYS use the power button to turn the NAS200 off, don't just unplug it.
4. Don't trust RAID. Make BACKUPS!
5. To ACCESS the disks directly, you will need ext2 and/or XFS file systems. I recommend using SystemRescueCD.
6. Disks will get HOT with standard fan, use "green" disks or consider replacing the fan.
7. FTP server is insecure and doesn't work behind a NAT router. Use my firmware and SCP instead.
8. MY FIRMWARE supports SSH shell prompt and SCP for secure file access, and allows running other software.

Has anyone experienced problems moving from ModileMe to iCloud?

I have MobileMe installed on my iMac 27. When I try to switch over to iCloud I get an iCloud window that that has a button that says "Move to iCloud". When I select the button I'm asked to reenter my passward as though I attempting to use the "Find My iPhone" application. At the bottom of that window I get a button that says "Open icloud.com". When I select that button I'm asked to enter by iCloud ID and password. I enter that information and it puts me in to the "Find My IPhone" application. When I use the the back arrow I get to a window that has Mail, Contact, Calendar, and Find My iPhone icons. It appears that everything is setup, but when I exit I have to go through the same process everytime as though it didn't move anything to to the Cloud. When I select iPhoto and Apperture to turn on PhotoStreaming the system tells me I have to log in to iCloud in system preferences to do this. I see no way to turn on PhotoStreaming on my iMac. Can anyone help?

I solved the problem. I first needed to go to my System Preferences under the Apple icon on the right and select MobileMe so I could logout of it. Once I was logged out, I was able to setup iCloud properly and activate Photo Streaming on my iMac 27. I got a clue to this solution by reading others who were having a similar problem.

Problems moving from one server to another

Hi all.
So I have 2 servers, maya and maya2. On both I have installed Sun Java Messaging server 2005Q4. After that I've set up an rsync between maya and maya2 (folders /opt/ and /var/opt) and everything is working fine, maya2 is a good backup server.
Of course maya's hdd broke down and I switched to maya2. I have also replaced maya2's ip with the one from maya and all seemed to work fine but... I can't login to delegate administrator (it sais "Invalid login ID or password, please try again") and the amconsole doesn't work ("Authentication Service is not initialized. Contact your system administrator.").
Everything else is working so I don't think this is from LDAP.
Could you please help me to solve this up? In what logs should I look?
If I reinstall all from scratch on caesar and copy all but the amconsole folder will it work?
Thanks

I have no way to tell what broke in your setup.
Your setup is unsupportable.
replicating this way may well break several things.
Deletaged Admin may have stuff outside the paths you chose to replicate. You may be able to reinstall it.
I doubt you need reinstall Messaging or Directory.

Problems moving from CS3 to CS4

Hi, I'm hoping someone here will be able to assist me.
I have a file that has been created in CS3, and I am now adding the rest of the code in CS4. It is based off a tutorial that a tutor gave us, which would not work unless it was completed in CS4 (originally I tried saving down to work on it as we were provided the interface as a CS4 file, but when that failed, bought CS4, started again, and it worked perfectly fine). Last time I presumed the issue was the saving down, but this time I'm saving up.
What is essentially happening is that I am getting an Error 1009 because the code is trying to access buttons that doesn't exist. The reason it thinks that it does not exist is because the gotoAndStop(frameLabel) does not appear to be working. The frameLabel is coming from an array (and before that an XML file) but using a trace statement shows that the name of the frameLabel it is receiving is correct, it is just not 'going' for some reason. Has anyone encountered this before and have a solution? Again the code works perfectly fine in a file that was started in CS4, but will not work in a file that was started in CS3.
All is in ActionScript 3, I have also run the update to Flash CS4 10.0.2.
Any assistance would be fantastic. Thanks

if the timing is correct (ie, your trace is executing BEFORE the goto) and the trace appear to be correct, you either:
1. have a typo and your label and goto argument are not the same or
2. you have whitespace in your label.
to debug use:
trace(frameLabel,frameLabel.length); // where frameLabel is your frame label

Reconfiguring Hyperion after DB move from Solaris to Linux

Our Hyperion Databases are moving from Solaris to Linux. We need to reconfigure Hyperion EPM to point to the new Linux DB. We have 4 Hyperion servers A,B, C, D.
Server A : Foundation Services, Workspace ,Reporting & Analysis, Planning, Calc Manager, Shared Services, EAS, APS.
Server B : EPMA, Essbase studio
Server C: ODI, FDM
Server D: Essbase
We are planning to do the below steps :
1) Stop all Hyperion services .
2) Stop databases on Solaris servers.
2) Configure Foundation first on foundation services server ( server A) , using EPM system configurator.
3) Configure Foundation on the other 3 servers( B, C,D) which are having EPMA, FDM, Essbase etc.
4) Foundation- Deployment to applicaiton server in foundation services server ( Server A).
5) Configure/deploy DB for rest of the products.
We tried to do similar steps last time. We were able to do foundation but for other products it failed. Please let us know if these steps are correct?
We are on Hyperion 11.1.2.2.300 version. O/S is Windows 2008 64 bit.

You should just need to follow the documentation:
Changing the Shared Services and Registry Database Connection Information and Password
Changing EPM System Product Repository Database Connection Information and Passwords
If there are problems following those steps then post the errors from the logs.
Cheers

Db migration from Solaris 8i to windows 10g

There is requirement to move db from solaris8(dbversion8170 to window Server 2003 (10204 already installed)
DB is about 80gb big, what would be the best approach ?
I am thinking to create new db on windows, and export and import data.....any concerns/suggestion?

NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production

what are other options i can try ?I only mention this approach because you asked. I wouldn't recommend it as a general strategy. exp/imp is the most straight-forward.
We are in the process of migrating from 9.2.0.6 to 11.1.0.7 (11.2 is not an approved standard yet in our enterprise), moving from Solaris to Linux, and consolidating two related instances into one.
We had to handle some unique situations due to our consolidation, so we did a lot of the steps manually that exp/imp does for you. A side benefit of this extra work is the actual down time is can be less than exp/imp itself, and avoids the need to dump all the data to disk and read it all again. We have about 500GB to migrate. It is a lot more work than a simple exp/imp, and is probably not be worth the effort for a single 80GB instance.
Our steps (oversimplified, there are more details than this) :
Set up the new instance and configure storage
Create users and roles in new DB
export structure only (using 9i exp)
import structure only (using 11g imp), without indexes or constraints
copy data (insert /*+APPEND*/ into.. select * from ... over a database link)
create indexes and constraints
Handling LONG data, materialized views, interdependencies between schemas each presented their own special circumstances I had to deal with.
The other path to get from 8i to 10g (mentioned only for academic reasons) is do a series of upgrades-in-place to get from 8i to 10.2.0.4 then use cross-platform transportable tablespaces to go from Solaris to Windows.

Moving from nDS 4.1 on Windows NT 4 to Windows 2000

Having a problem moving from nDS 4.1 on NT 4.0 SP6 to Windows 2000.
First of all nDS 4.1 will not install on Windows 2000. It fails.
So I installed iDS 5.0 and everything went fine. Then I tried to import
users and it failed because of different schema. So then I tried to import
the schema. That didn't work or more accurately, I did not know how to do
it since iDS uses ldif files not conf files.
So I download and installed nDS 4.13. It worked and I moved the conf files
to import the schema and imported the users. Then the admin server service
quit working. The ipaddress had been changed, so I changed it back with
ldapmodify. Now the admin server service works, But I cannot connect with
the console to the server to make any changes.
Please help.
IPlanet actually emailed me after I downloaded iDS 5.0 to offer assistance
getting it setup. So I emailed then back and explained my problems and
asked specifically what versions of DS are supported on Windows 2000. They
now don't return my phone calls and every time I get through to them they
pass me off to a new tech who says he will get back to me. Of course they
never do.
So my question is how should I go about moving our Directory that is
currently running nDS 4.1 on Windows NT 4.0 to Windows 2000. What version
should I run. How should I move the directory. I am unfamiliar with the
replication options and how to use them if that would be the best solution.
Thanks in Advance.
Ted

I think DS 4.12 or later supports Win2K.
After you installed DS 5.0, you should have run migration. This would have migrated all of your config and schema and data from your 4.x server to your 5.0 server.
"The ipaddress had been changed, so I changed it back with ldapmodify." Ouch. Exactly what did you do? It is very tricky to change the admin server port number and get the console to work again.
"replication options"? Do you mean migration?
What is the desired outcome of this process? To have a DS 5.0 running on Win2K?

This is a weird one. My itunes 7.6.2.9 is fine on searches with no numbers at the start. You can search quick and also flick throught the track list quickly as well. HOWEVER, start that search with a '1' eg 101 Number Ones and the search is slow and also moving from one track to another is painful. SWITCH that search to 'number ones'and the speed is as normal for searching AND moving along and to other tracks.... Sounds like a software glitch but very odd...

yeah, im having the same problem. moving from track to track is painfully slow.

Problems moving from Solaris 2.5.1 to 2.7
