Recurrning instance did not start at specified time

Hi, All,
Version BO XI R2.
We have a daily recurrning schedule that starts at 02:30AM every morning (Deski and Crystal Reports).
For some reason, today they did not start 02:30AM and were still on RECURRNING status in History tab though time has passed on around 03:30AM. But they ran immediately when I restarted the Connection, Deski/CR Job and Deski/CR Page servers.
The schedule ran OK yesterday, but had the same issue day before as well.
I have found no errors in events logs (application and system).
CMS and job and page servers are in different Windows server and clustered environment.
Can anybody got help me on this issue please ?
Many thanks in advacne.
Raghu

May be try restarting the BO services once.

Sounds like failing or failed hardware or it is possible your HD is too full.
BTW this is an iMac forum, your profile indicates you have a Mac Pro. Is that correct, if so please post in the Mac Pro forums.
Good luck.

Bakup did not start at the scheduled time?????

Hi all
Yesterday I scheduled my backup as usual at 1:00am and to my surprise the logs showed me that the backup was started at 9:30am in the morning............
In the morning when I tried to login I could not, I saw the status of the database it was shut down so I manually started the database which caused the backup that was started at 9:30am(which i could not see that it was running) terminated with errors.....................
Can any one please tell me how come the backup did not start at the scheduled time. However the backup of the next day was sucessfull.
Regards
Mahesh

Hello Jaipal,
I suspect that an 'sapdba' session or 'brspace' session was active on the OS level.
Some user must have kept this session active knowingly or unknowingly.
The offline backup was waiting for the active session to complete / end.
The session probably was ended / terminated around 9:30 am
(Maybe the user terminated the sapdba / brspace session at 9:30 in the morning after resuming the office work)
The backup started as soon as the sapdba / brspace session was terminated / ended.

Windows server 2008 R2 Standard edition time server problem: The computer did not resync because no time data was available.

Hello,
I'm trying to get my 2008 R2 server (physical server) to synch with an external time server. I've read other threads on the topic but have not found a solution. I'm sure i'm missing something.
First the step leading to the error:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Following is the history:
Here are the steps
C:\>netdom /query fsmo
Schema master               DC-01.coastal.local
Domain naming master        DC-01.coastal.local

RID pool manager            DC-01.coastal.local
Infrastructure master       DC-01.coastal.local
The command completed successfully.
next:
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:time.nist.gov,0x1 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
The command completed successfully.
next:
net stop w32time && net start w32time
The Windows Time service is stopping.
The Windows Time service was stopped successfully.
The Windows Time service is starting.
The Windows Time service was started successfully.
Next:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Next:
Did a restart of the server and repeated:
w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
Next:
Ran the following:

Hi,
You may need to update command w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update, to change the IntranetServer w32time type to nt5ds (this sets the service to pull from the AD).
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

An error 1069 - )The service did not start due to logon failure) occurred while performing this service operation ...

Hi All,
We seem to be being plagued by the error below by our SQL Server agent. This happens almost everytime we restart the server that has been running for a day or two.
Our SQL Server Agent uses a none expiring domain credential. I understand that this problem only happens when the profile being used by the SQL Servr Agent has changed (password change). What puzzles me is that the login is A ok and no changes has been made to it's password.
We always resolve this problem by changing the login used in the SQL Server Agent to local and after that, returning it back to it's original domain login. Unfortunately, we cant always do this everytime something goes wrong.
Can anyone please help us shed a light on this? We're using SQL2k with SP3a. Thanks!
Error:
An error 1069 - )The service did not start due to logon failure) occurred while performing this service operation on the SQLServerAgent service.

Joseph

Ran into this error, and the password was correct. What the System Event Log said:
Code SnippetEvent Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7041

Time: 9:33:09 AM
User: N/A
Computer: ComputerName
Description:
The SQLSERVERAGENT service was unable to log on as DomainName\SQLAgent with the currently configured password due to the following error:
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.
Service: SQLSERVERAGENT
Domain and account: DomainName\SQLAgent
This service account does not have the necessary user right "Log on as a service."
User Action
Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this. If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.
If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed, a Group Policy object associated with this node might be removing the right. Check with your domain administrator to find out if this is happening.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp
...sure enough it had been removed from the "Logon as a service" list. Hope this helps.

"The TestStand service did not start up promptly"

I have a LabView Operator Interface startup problem with TS 4.1. If
the OI is started immediately after system boot the operator may get apopup error from TestStand:
"The TestStand service did not start up promptly"
The
TestStand Service has a dependency on RPC so if either does not startup
before the operator launches the OI, he gets the message. If he
dismisses the message there is no further error i.e. the software
continues to work OK.
The real problem is the end user does not like this message and wants it removed.
Any suggestions how I can get rid of this message?
Only ideas I can see at the moment - either to have some kind of
delay timer on startup (this would need to be around 1-2 mins after
boot
on the system in question to stop it happening) or perhaps some LabView
code to poll the status of the TestStand service somehow so that we
wait for service to start before the OI communicates with testStand -
and thus the
popup does not occur.

The service should not normally take any significant amount of time to startup. There are some issues with service startup that we have noticed in some cases, but I don't remember the details. I will try and find out and get back to you. In the meantime, or as a possible solution, you can use the Windows SDK to check the status of the service and to wait until it is running. I'm not sure if the following can be directly translated into LabVIEW dll calls, but it would definitely be possible to create a C/C++ dll with the following code in it and call it from LabVIEW (If you do not have access to a C/C++ compiler and/or would like me to, I can probably build a dll with this code in it for you):
int MakeSureServiceIsRunning(void)
    SERVICE_STATUS serviceStatus;
    SC_HANDLE hService = NULL;
    SC_HANDLE hSCM = NULL;
    // Put variable into a good initial state for return value.
    serviceStatus.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_START_PENDING;
    hSCM = OpenSCManager(NULL, NULL, SC_MANAGER_CONNECT);
    if (hSCM == NULL)
        goto Error;
    hService = OpenService(hSCM, "National Instruments TestStand Service", SERVICE_QUERY_STATUS);
    if (hService == NULL)
        goto Error;
    do
        if(!QueryServiceStatus(hService, &serviceStatus))
            goto Error;
        if(serviceStatus.dwCurrentState != SERVICE_RUNNING)
            Sleep(100); // don't just do busy waiting, give up cpu time to other threads.
    while(serviceStatus.dwCurrentState == SERVICE_START_PENDING);
Error:
    if (hService != NULL)
        CloseServiceHandle(hService);
    if (hSCM != NULL)
        CloseServiceHandle(hSCM);
    if (serviceStatus.dwCurrentState == SERVICE_RUNNING)
        return 1;
    else
        return 0; // An error occurred, or service is in an unexpected state.
Or alternatively, if you want to do the polling inside of LabVIEW you could just do the following in the C/C++ dll:
int GetTestStandServiceStatus(unsigned int *serviceStatusReturnResult)
    SERVICE_STATUS serviceStatus;
    SC_HANDLE hService = NULL;
    SC_HANDLE hSCM = NULL;
    hSCM = OpenSCManager(NULL, NULL, SC_MANAGER_CONNECT);
    if (hSCM == NULL)
        goto Error;
    hService = OpenService(hSCM, "National Instruments TestStand Service", SERVICE_QUERY_STATUS);
    if (hService == NULL)
        goto Error;
    if(!QueryServiceStatus(hService, &serviceStatus))
        goto Error;
    *serviceStatusReturnResult = serviceStatus.dwCurrentState;
    CloseServiceHandle(hService);
    CloseServiceHandle(hSCM);
    return 1; // success
Error:
    if (hService != NULL)
        CloseServiceHandle(hService);
    if (hSCM != NULL)
        CloseServiceHandle(hSCM);
    return 0; // An error occurred. Perhaps TestStand service isn't registered.

'error 1069 - (The service did not start due to a logon failure) in BAM

I installed BAM on XP SP2, i do have IIS configured and XE DB, after installing when i tried starting the services as per post-installion guide.i did found the error 'An error 1069 - (The service did not start due to a logon failure).In google i could find a remedy saying
Remedy: Go to Start /Programs / Administrative tools / Services. Right-click the Goodlink Server and select Properties. Click the Log On tab. Retype the correct password. Start the Goodlink service.
i did so but did found the same error.So i tried changing a few things in LogOn tab such as " Earlier it was logging in from machine name and pwd , since it gave an error" i changed it to local system account ." now all services of BAM have started except Oracle BAM Active Data cache.
Anyone pls rep how do i resolve this? Do i need to re-install? i need this to be done very urgently.

Windows XP is not a certified platform for BAM. However, the product works fine on XP for evaluations and demos. For production, use a certified/supported version of Windows as is documented in the Software System Requirements section of the BAM Install Guide.
All Postinstall steps apply to all versions of Windows that BAM runs on except for the Postinstall step called "Required Configuration for Microsoft Windows Server 2003". As indicated by the step name, this one is for W2003 only.
"network not found windows 53 error" is generally a network, account or password issue. Please follow the Install Guide step by step to avoid installation issues like this.
See "Troubleshooting Start Page Issues" for start page problems.
As indicated in the Install Guide, you can use host names or IP addresses:
"12. On the Configure location of Oracle BAM step, enter the host name or the IP
address where each component is to be installed, even if it is not being installed at
this time, then click Next."

Msg regarding "Dgraph did not start in startup timeout of 120 seconds"

Hi All,
Baseline update failed with following error message.
"WARNING: Component 'Dgraph1' did not start in startup timeout of 120 seconds.
SEVERE: Server component 'Dgraph1' did not start in the allotted startup time.Refer to component logs in /usr/local/endeca/EndAppR7/./logs/dgraphs/Dgraph1 on host MDEXHost1.

2|
3| DgraphCluster.cleanDirs();
4| DgraphCluster.copyIndexToDgraphServers();
5| DgraphCluster.applyIndex();
6|
7|
I've checked the dgraph1 logs and i don't see any difference than usual logs - like what i had yesterday.
"all dgraph transactions completed"
"Shutting down dgraph (pid=17398)"
It had been running well as daily scheduled job since last 1 week.
it has very small data to be indexed, just few MB.
I've checked main application log, dgraphs logs, forge logs just in case, and process.0.log in PlatformServices. I don't see any useful detailed information to find out what causes this issue.
And there was no locked flag on the application.
to resolve this issue, i just started the Dgraph1 from Workbench and run the baseline update to make sure if it does not fail again. it ran well.
But i'm wondering why... it happened.
Can anyone kindly tell me the possible cause or where i can find out the root cause?
Thanks,
Edited by: julia on Oct 31, 2012 11:06 AM

Julia,
After you issue the start command (either as part of a baseline update or with a runcommand.sh Dgraph1 start), you should see your Dgraph1.log file (in [your_app_folder]/data/dgraphs/Dgraph1/) get updated with information related to dgraph startup.
You should look there to see if your dgraph is actually starting in the 2 minute timeframe, the dgraph is up when you see the following line:
pid=[SOME_NUMBER] listening for HTTP connections on port [SOME_NUMBER] at [SOME_DATE_TIME]
If you don't see that, there is either an error starting the dgraph (you should see that in the same log file) or an error sending the command to start the dgraph (port 8888 not open, EAC Agent not running on the MDEX server, etc.).
If you do see a successful message starting the dgraph, it's likely that the EAC Central Server (i.e. likely where you ran the command) was not able to determine that the dgraph started. It usually does this by issuing an admin?op=ping to the dgraph port so it's likely that port 15000 (or whereever your dgraph is running) is blocked between those two servers.
Hopefully, that's enough for you to go on.

I also uninstalled and reinstalled it, nothing.
Also i installed the full version, and i installed the trial version,. always the same. did not start.

DaiZhenLong
Thank you for your follow up and supplying the requested information. Much appreciated.
I am not sure if you tried the following but I post it since you have gone through so much already and we have not found the answer to success for you.
Think about downloading and installing the free 30 day tryout of Premiere Elements 11 from Adobe. See if you can get it to run as the trial version. If and when you do, then open it an insert your purchased serial number when it asks "Buy Now" or "Continue the Trial".
But, please make sure that antivirus and firewalls are off during this download and install and until you see that you have Premiere Elements 11 project open and ready to work.
What do you think?
We will be watching for your follow up.
ATR
Add On...By the way, did you ever say how you installed Premiere Elements originally....from installation disc or from installation files from online download from Adobe? What I have suggested best lends itself to installation disc since there may be a problem getting a second download of installation files from Adobe since you already have done that.

Does anyone know what the problem is and how to get rid of it? I need to be back up my computer ..
Thank you.

So I checked and the format of the new Verbatim hard drive is MS-DOS (FAT32).
that's the problem. time machine cannot back up to FAT32 formatted HD's.
use *disk utility* to reformat the drive for Mac (partitioned using GUID and formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)).
use the instructions in [this|http://web.me.com/pondini/AppleTips/DU.html] user tip.

Pearson Vue 10g testing did not start - technical issues.

Hi,
I registered for the 10g DBA II exam on 28th May from one of the Toronto area based Exam center.
To my surprise, the exam did not start. The Pearson system started asking some Authentication code which the center person doesn't know. I was really upset of not being able to appear for the exam I prepared (you know the mindset of a test taker).
I started following up with the Pearson Vue Customer care, they have created an incident and so far there has been no progress on this.
The system doesn't let me reschedule or book the same exam. I want to try taking the exam from different center.
The help from PearsonVue customer care is very average, I really oracle to intervene.
Need help from the certification moderator.
Thanks,
Jay.

Jay.Its good if you have an incident number, in general you can reply and ask if they can escalate this.
(This the test center or you raise the incident, and do you have the incident number ? (if not get it) ).
There has been a weekend, and in some places it was a holiday yesterday. (Probably not canada you will tell me).
A Pearson VUE representative should be able to reschedule this for you. If you ask nicely enough they might (or might not) help with costs if you give a sob story about time wasted, money wasted, stress ....
The key work is to request to ESCALATE the incident xxxxx.
( It may be that is a test center incident and they are trying to sort the test centers issues .... you need an incident to get a re-test which may be different (but related) ).
( I once had a failed test, and they were able to reschedule it for me somehwere else in 2hrs .... (where is also failed !!!! ).
Pearson VUE will also need to be sure the problem is cleared before they reschedule you.
( In general they sort of come somewhat good in the end ... usually ).
