Query AD cause Exception calling "FindAll" with "0" argument(s)

Hi all,
When I query an entry property of AD with PowerShell, i got some problems. Here is the script, what's wrong ? Any idea? Thanks!
Cause error at last line code. (Exception calling "FindAll" with "0" argument(s): "There is no such object on the server)
$MailboxServer = Get-MailboxServer -Identity $Env:COMPUTERNAME -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$dc = [System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain]::GetCurrentDomain()
$exchOAB = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" + $dc.Name + "/cn=Offline Address Lists,cn=Address Lists Container, " + $MailboxServer.DistinguishedName)
$objSearcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$objSearcher.SearchRoot = $exchOAB
$objSearcher.PageSize = 1000
$objSearcher.SearchScope = "OneLevel"
$objSearcher.Filter = "(objectClass=msExchOAB)"
$powershellOAB = $objSearcher.FindAll()

This is one of, now, four duplicate posts.

Exception calling "Activate" with "0" argument(s): "Topology does not contain any components of type Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Topology.AdminComponen

Hi,
I have a Sharepoint 2013 farm I am trying to provision search for (not the same as my other thread). However, I get the below error:
Exception calling "Activate" with "0" argument(s): "Topology does not contain any components of type Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Topology.AdminComponent"
In my script, I have the following:
New-SPEnterpriseSearchAdminComponent -SearchTopology $clone -SearchServiceInstance $SearchServiceInstanceServer3 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
So I am not sure why the error happens, when I am trying to set this component. However, it's not the first component to be set (index partition on non-local servers first). I can make it first, but why does this error happen?
UPDATE: I have noticed that the usage and health proxy on my farm is/was stopped, but I am not able to access the server(s) to look at this right now. Could this cause this issue?

Do you already have Admin component running for the Search Service Application?
Usage and Health Service will not cause this issue.
Please also refer to below discussion to see if it helps:

Hi Adil,
Document Library is different from a normal list. The document library contains files inside it. You need to update the code to add a document to the library. Then you can get hold of the List Item represented by that file and update its properties. Here
is an example:
$WebURL = "http://aissp2013/sites/TestSite"
$DocLibName = "Docs"
$FilePath = "c:\blogs.txt"
# Get a variable that points to the folder
$Web = Get-SPWeb $WebURL
$List = $Web.GetFolder($DocLibName)
$Files = $List.Files
# Get just the name of the file from the whole path
$FileName = $FilePath.Substring($FilePath.LastIndexOf("\")+1)
# Load the file into a variable
$File= Get-ChildItem $FilePath
# Upload it to SharePoint
$spFile = $Files.Add($DocLibName +"/" + $FileName,$File.OpenRead(),$false)
$item = $spFile.Item
$item["Title"] = "New Title"
$item.Update()
$web.Dispose()

Call function with select arguments

Hi Gurus,
I have problem to call function inside select statements as follow:
select a.ID_ELE2, a.ID_ELE3, a.DT_FIS_YR, c.NU_FIS_PER, c.dt,
(case
when c.ld is null then
GET_LD_CHECK (a.DT_FIS_YR,c.NU_FIS_PER, a.ID_ELE3, a.ID_ELE2) -- 1
-- GET_LD_CHECK ('2009',7, '8010', '7493') --- 2
else
c.ld
end ) description
from ACCOUNT a, TRANSACTION c
where a.DT_FIS_YR ='2009'
and a.ID_ELE3 <> '0000'
and c.TY_SRC not in ('CL', 'CN')
and a.DT_FIS_YR = c.nu_fis_yr
and a.AK = c.AK_FGCHAR
and trim(a.ID_ELE3) ='8010'
and c.NU_FIS_PER <> 14
order by 1,4,5,6
the 1 doesn't output result but the 2 it does! How can pass the select result to the function?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The statement / function call seems to be ok. So there are not much chances left for your call to return different (=non) values.
1) It could be that you have different values in the column then during your test call.
2) Maybe your function raises an error and that error is supressed in some ugly WHEN OTHERS EXCEPTION => Solution: Get rid of the error handler.
3) datatype conversion. For example if a.dt_fis_yr is a number value, then you should test with number values and not with strings. GET_LD_CHECK (2009,7, '8010', '7493'). Same logic goes for the other paramters, make sure the datatype is correct and matches the function parameter.

Call method with an argument from another view controller

I have a UIViewController MainViewController that brings up a modal view that is of the class AddPlayerViewController. When the user clicks 'Save' in the modal view I need to pass the Player data (which is a Player class) from the modal view to the MainViewController in addition to triggering a method in the MainViewController. What's the best way to accomplish this? I'm new to cocoa and have only tried using delegates and some ugly hacks to no avail.
Thanks for the help.

If I understand correctly, you have:
1. A model object, Player.
2. A top view controller, MainViewController.
3. Another view controller, AddPlayerViewController, which MainViewController displays modally.
I'm guessing that AddPlayerViewController creates a new Player object and lets the user set its values, and you need a way to get that new Player into MainViewController once they're done.
So, here's what I'd do:
1. Create an AddPlayerViewControllerDelegate protocol. It should declare two methods, "- (void)addPlayerViewController:(AddPlayerViewContrller*)controller didAddPlayer:(Player*)newPlayer" and "- (void)addPlayerViewControllerNotAddingPlayer:(AddPlayerViewController*)controll er".
2. Add an attribute of type "id <AddPlayerViewControllerDelegate>" called delegate to AddPlayerViewController. Also add a property with "@property (assign)" and "@synthesize".
3. Modify AddPlayerViewController so that if you click the "Save" button, addPlayerViewController:didAddPlayer: gets called, passing "self" and the new Player object as the two arguments. Also arrange for clicking the "Cancel" button to call addPlayerViewControllerNotAddingPlayer:.
4. Modify MainViewController to declare that it conforms to AddPlayerViewControllerDelegate. Implement those two methods (addPlayerViewControllerNotAddingPlayer: might be an empty method if you don't want to do anything).
5. When you create your AddPlayerViewController, set its delegate to your MainViewController.
If you need more detail, let me know what parts you need me to elaborate on.

Calling RH_ShowLocalHelp with 5 arguments

Hello all,
I'm trying to make a context-sensitive help call from C#. According to the documentation at http://help.adobe.com/en_US/robohelp/robohtml/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11aff59c571-7f39.ht ml , there's a function named RH_ShowLocalHelp that takes 5 parameters. Unfortunately, that function seems to be missing from the C# files that ship with RoboHelp 10 (the 4 arguments' version is in the file, though). Am I missing something in here? Am I not using the right files?
Thanks in advance,

I don't have an answer but maybe a look at www.wvanweelden.eu will help. Willam has a lot of information on calling help.

Call apt with multiple arguments

Is it possible to call apt inside a java class and pass multiple .class files?
For example:
String[] args = new String[5];
args[0] = "-nowarn";
args[1] = "-XclassesAsDecls";
args[2] = "-classpath";
args[3] = System.getProperty("java.class.path");
args[4] = "packageName.FirstClass packageName.SecondClass";
return Main.process(new MyAnnotationProcessorFactory(),args);Result of the above example is:
error: Could not find class file for packageName.FirstClass packageName.SecondClass
1 error

The class path contains classes that we need.
This example works:
String[] args = new String[6];
args[0] = "-nowarn";
args[1] = "-XclassesAsDecls";
args[2] = "-classpath";
args[3] = System.getProperty("java.class.path");
args[4] = "packageName.FirstClass";
args[5] = "packageName.SecondClass";
return Main.process(new IapiAnnotationProcessorFactory(),args);I replaced args[4] = "packageName.FirstClass packageName.SecondClass"; with a
args[4] = "packageName.FirstClass";
args[5] = "packageName.SecondClass";

Exception calling "Find"

I have a script that does a nice check to see if two groups belong to admins group on each server.
It kind of works apart from , if there is a server is the list that in no longer in AD , it returns the results from the last server.
The code below will run ok , if a server is no longer in the domain the line that reads
...psbase.children.find(”Administrators”) will sometimes error with
Exception calling "Find" with "1" argument(s): "The network path was not found.
If I can some how test for this it would be ok but i tried to trap for string and for $null but i couldnt get it to work
so $result then writes its last entry again.

RFC call ended with "Communication Failure" exception (Function call failed; could not find the function

Hi All,
I am getting error while executing oDATA service from SAP Netweaver Gateway
Error details:
RFC call ended with "Communication Failure" exception (Function call failed; could not find the function
I am using SAP NG 740
Project is created in Gateway system using SEGW having Map to Datasource option used.
in SPRO manage alias, I had seleted Local App option. Screen attached
I had tried all troubleshooting like delete and add service and alias in "/IWFND_MAINT_SERVICE".
but still getting same error for all service.
Kindly advise.
Regards
Vivek

Hello Vivek,
Service builder would have also generated code for RFC Exception handling to catch exceptions raised when communication fails between your GW and BE for some reasons.
Handling is done for 1. System Failure 2. Communication Failure & 3. Business Failure;
Put a BP in your DPC or DP_EXT class where exception code is written to check what exactly is has caused communication failure.
Check if that RFC is existing in that destination or not.
For your reference : Code would be something like this. Put BP here and check the problem.
* Error and exception handling
IF lv_subrc <> 0.
* Execute the RFC exception handling process
   me->/iwbep/if_sb_dpc_comm_services~rfc_exception_handling(
     EXPORTING
       iv_subrc            = lv_subrc
       iv_exp_message_text = lv_exc_msg ).
ENDIF.
Go inside this method and check to get info on what has to be done to resolve issue.
Check carefully what has gone wrong and fix it accordingly.
No need of adding service & deleting as problem is not because of that.
Regards,
Ashwin

Receiving error: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'MFSQLiteException', reason: 'inserting mailbox url' abort() called terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

Today, I received this error when I re-added two email accounts that are tied in to my domain. The error is: "Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'MFSQLiteException', reason: 'inserting mailbox url' abort() called terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException"
Two days ago, at my wits end with email issues, I googled how to Reset Mail.app and followed the recommendation found here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2266399?tstart=0
That's. all. I've. done.
What should I do correct the error I'm receiving when adding my email accounts?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Finally cause Exception be forgotten

In trying out that finally cause previous return value be forgotten, as described on page 206 of "The Java Programming Language, 3rd edition", I wrote the following code, and tested it with jdk1.3.1. To my supprise, not only the return value was forgotten, the exception was appeared forgotten as well:
class PException extends Exception {
class Final {
    void f1(int i) {
     int result;
     System.out.println("f1("+i+")");
     try {
         result = f2(i);
         System.out.println("result = " + result);
     } catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.println("caught an Exception: " + e);
     try {
         result = f3(i);
         System.out.println("result = " + result);
     } catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.println("caught an Exception: " + e);
    int f2(int i) throws PException {
     try {
         if (i == 1) {
          System.out.println("generate exception");
          throw new PException();
         return 1;
     } finally {
         return 2;
    int f3(int i) throws PException {
     if (i == 1) {
         System.out.println("generate exception");
         throw new PException();
     return 1;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
     Final f = new Final();
     f.f1(1);
     f.f1(2);
     f.f1(1);
}Here is the result:
f1(1)
generate exception
result = 2
generate exception
caught an Exception: PException
f1(2)
result = 2
result = 1
f1(1)
generate exception
result = 2
generate exception
caught an Exception: PException

The concern here is that when the
try {
finally {
}pattern is used, without the catch block, purelly for flow control purpose, a return statement in the finally block could be problematic. If a finally block ends with a return statement, any exception that might be thrown in the try block would be ignored. The unhandled exception will not propergate, it simply lost in the midst. Because any code could throw unchecked exception, if the exception cannot afford to be lost, then one should be careful not to use return in the finally block. See the following test code:
class Finally {
    void test() {
     int result;
     System.out.println("test()");
     try {
         result = f1();
         System.out.println("result = " + result);
     } catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.println("Caught an Exception: " + e);
     try {
         result = f2();
         System.out.println("result = " + result);
     } catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.println("Caught an Exception: " + e);
     try {
         f3();
     } catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.println("Caught an Exception: " + e);
     try {

Here are the results:test()
f1()
result = 0
f2()
Caught an Exception: java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
f3()
f4()
Caught an Exception: java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
We see that the devide by zero exception throw by f1() simply vanished, the unintended result 0, instead of the intended result 1, is returned. The test() method did not detect any abnormality in f1(), which is scary. To drive the point home, we try f3() and f4(), which has void return type. A simple return statement in f3() causes exception be lost. The stack frame seems intact, for otherwise, the test() method would exit abruptly before f2() even get a chance to be called.
