Reloading OWB Projects after an Instance Rebuild

I am working in an environment where we have one Design Repository and three Runtime Repositories. Each of the Runtime Repositories is on a different Oracle DB instance (DEV, TEST, and PROD). We will periodically âdestroyâ and ârebuildâ these instances until we are satisfied with our installation. When we do a ârebuildâ on an instance it doesnât affect my Design Repository because it is separate from the three DB instances. The metadata that was in the Design Repository before the rebuild is still there after the rebuild.
What are affected are the Runtime Repository and the Target Schema that resided in the DB instance before the rebuild. Our DBA has written scripts to reinstall both of these after a rebuild but of course they are missing all of the code for the packages etc. that were deployed to them from my OWB project.
As it stands now, after each rebuild I have to manually register the Source and Target Locations, redeploy the code for all deployable objects (Custom Transformation Operators etc.), open each mapping and do an âInbound Reconcileâ on the Source and Target tables, and then regenerate and redeploy the code for the mappings. What we would like to do is find some way to automate all of these tasks.
In reading through the forum threads I see that others are trying to accomplish the same thing or something very similar. There are multiple mentions of â.tclâ files or scripts. What are these and what tool/utility is used to create them? Where can I read up on this? There are also multiple mentions of âSnapshotsâ. Is this an OWB utility?
I think it would solve my problem if I could capture the state of both the Runtime Repository and the Target Schema before the rebuild and then use that to restore both of them to their original state after the rebuild. Does anyone know how to do this? What documentation exists to describe the tools/utilities needed and how to use them?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Good morning Don,
You can automate tasks by using scripting. This consists of something called OMBPlus/OMB (Oracle MetaBase => repository-DML-language) and TCL.
Tcl is a scripting language which is designed to be embedded in applications.
The Warehouse Builder scripting language, known as OMB Plus, is an extension of the Tcl programming language. With OMB Plus, you can write the syntactic constructs
such as variable support, conditional and looping control structures, error handling, and standard library procedures.
Check http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/sdk/scripting%20pages/Scripting_home.htm to get an overview from Oracle on the entire subject.
Check the OWB Scripting Reference for commands to manipulate the Repository: http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B12152_01.pdf
Also check http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/pdf/OWB_Scripting_Paper.pdf
A snapshot is related to repository objects. It contains all the information (metadata) about object(s) and the relationships for the object(s). It is used for Change Management.
For a full description see the "Metadata Change Management" chapter in the User Guide.
Good luck, Patrick

Why does iMovie 11 reload my project after every edit

I have had this problem from the beginning. I am working on a slide show style project (a la Ken Burns) now but this happened on smaller projects before. Typically I make a duration change to the slide and hit done. iMovie reloads the project. Sometimes it takes 1-2 seconds. Other times it acts like it is loading the project for the first time (at least 10 seconds). It's about 50/50 for doing both. Is it supposed to reload every time. I looked in Preferences (and other menus) and can't find anything to adjust. This slows my editting process to a crawl. HELP.

I think you have the wrong forum, this is for mobile devices, hence iOS Apps; I am trying to get it moved.
But as a quick answer, your final video may render out to more then 2 Gb, and your drives may not be able to handle that size files.
Check that the drive you are saving to is formatted as MacOS, and not Fat.
Even if the origonal videos are 731 mb, you may have chosen to re-compress at a higher rate.
Another idea would be to choose a lower compression, thus a smaller file.

Reload iWeb project after reinstall

I reinstalled my OS, as I do frequently to optimize computer performance. However when I now try to continue working on my iWeb project I'm stuck. I've made backups of my website folder but I can't get it to reload in iweb.
Is there any way to get my old project back on track by using my backup:ed files?
Otherwise this means that EVERY time I reinstall my OS I have to rebuild my site from the top. This seems ridiculous! I have to move everything I have to Dreamweaver and STOP using iWeb, It's no point if you lose your work when you reinstall your system. Come on apple, you can do better than this, it's ridiculous.
Please please help me if you know a way around.
/Erik

Hello Erik,
You do not need to reinstall the OS to optimize performance !
In fact : do not do this !
Every Mac comes standard with 3 scripts to optimize your machine.
All you have to do is run them !
If you do not feel comfortable to run them yourself, there are many tools that will do the trick for you. Ex. OnyX (freeware, search on www.versiontracker.com)
If you've done an install as you did so many times before, all your files should be as they were.
If you did an install with "erase old install", then you better have a back-up on an external disk...
Using Dreamweaver over iWeb will make no difference here, they'll both be gone
Now, let's hope you have a back-up on an external disk (or an other uninfected partition on your internal drive) :
iWeb saves everything in the file "Domain.sites2" on your disk.
The default location is : /Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
Restore the file Domain.sites2 from your Back-Up and you're back in business.
Kind regards,
Leo
PS: just out of curiosity, where did you get the idea to reinstall the OS to improve performance ?
If you like to experiment why don't you clone your internal HD to an external HD and then boot with the external HD to experiment and boot with the internal HD for serious work?
The tool to select the boot disk is installed on every Mac : System Preferences / System / Startup Disk
There are some freeware tools to clone your internal disk to an external disk.
Do a search on versiontracker or a similar site.
Ex.: Carbon Copy Cloner will do the trick.

Can't delete project service application instance

Hi!
First, sorry for my english.
I'm trying to delete project service application instance with no luck. I tried to delete service app accordingly with this topic (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d03219d0-9748-43ef-9c5e-b9006bcaf354/cant-delete-project-web-app-or-service-application?forum=sharepointadmin)
and i've got "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error after calling Delete method. I tried to delete service app from central administration and also tried to create a new one, but i still got this error in both
cases.
I'm using Sharepoint 2013 SP 1 and Project Server 2013 SP 1
Any suggestions, please

Hi Konnie,
Look for any orphan PWA instances in the farm by running the below commands:
> Retrieve the List of PWA instances in the farm including the orphaned ones:
$serviceapp = get-spserviceapplication | ? {$_.TypeName -like "*Project*"}
$pwainstances = $serviceapp.Sitecollection
$pwainstances | ft name, id
> Look for the properties of the instances by running the below commands and find the one which is orphaned
$toberemoved = $pwainstances | ? {$_.Id -eq "491b0247-fb73-46ac-89ac-fd39db184995"}
$toberemoved
> Once the orphaned PWA is identified delete the orphan entry by running the below command
$toberemoved.delete()

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

How can I export a comp or pre-comp to another AE project without having to rebuild or make a movie?

Can I export an AE comp or pre-comp to another AE project without having to rebuild or make a movie? In regard to tweaks or timing changes based on that projects' needs.

First, save the project in a different name. Delete out the comps & precomps you neither want nor need. Run AE's reduce project command to remove any unused footage, then save it again. Now you have a simplified project, which you can then import into any AE project you want.
If you like things nice & tidy, don't forget to use the replace layer (Alt-drag, Opt-drag) trick on any duplicated footage, using the footage from the project into which you import the simplified project. The alternative: just leave all the footage alone, and know you can't delete it.

Lost Projects after FCP X crash

I have lost two projects after a crash of FCP X, both on different external drives.
FCP X begins going slow and then freezes and then closes, when I reopen it and try to find the project I was just working on, it is gone! I have searched all over and cannot find it. When I try to update events and projects (under file) it is not there.
Help! This is about 8 hours of work lost.

This helped recover one of my missing projects from one of my external hard drives, but when I attempt the same process to recover a different project from a different external hard drive, this warning appears:
I did the exact same thing as with the other project/drive and for some reason this one is not working??

Problem in Exporting OWB Project

Hi all,
I was trying to export an OWB Project.But it gave the following error message in the log file :
<
MDL1256: Error occurred exporting LOCATION with physical name <ODSLOC>, business name <ODSLOC>.
Detailed Error Message:
MDL1255: Error exporting CONNECTOR <UIIDRACONN/UIIDRACONN> for LOCATION <ODSLOC/ODSLOC>.
Error in SQL Statement. Please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and details on how to reproduce it.
>
I could not understand the problem.I have checked the CONNECTOR and the LOCATION are valid and working fine in the project.
Can anyone help me out of this ?
Thanks in advance.
Azad.

I suggest that you "merge" some jars to make custom one. you have then to import this jar instead.
this way you'll reduce the number of the imported jars and thus avoid the "too many..."
hope it's clear..

Whenever I access my Hotmail inbox to open a new mail it starts reloading the mail after every second unless i switch it to full view?

whenever I access my Hotmail inbox to open a new mail it starts reloading the mail after every second unless i switch it to full view. Kindly help me to solve this continuous problem.

I confirm this is a known bug and Microsoft are working on a fix. They plan to fix this before Firefox 4 reaches release candidate phase.
A workaround is to change a preference in Firefox:
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''html5.enable''' and double-click on it to change its value to '''false'''
If you do this, remember to set the preference back to true by double-clicking on it again when Firefox 4 release candidate is made available, the bug should be fixed by then.

Error after 20 instances

Post Author: Jeffrey van der Vegt
CA Forum: Other
I wrote an application that prints the same report with a list of different databases. But after 20 instances printed or previewed. I get an error message "error: 544...... Access to report file denied. Another program may be using it."
I am using delphi 6 with the crystal reports VCL component for Delphi 6 version 8.6.0.9 with CRPE32.dll version 8.5.3.979
After some research on the Net I found out this problem has to do something with limitations of the VCL.
Is there a (simple) work around for this problem?

I had this happen to me last week as well, and it turned out to be a memory issue. In my case, I was taking an old report and making it a subreport of a new report. In doing so, I had suppressed many elements of the old report, but not deleted them. By actually deleting those fields from the old report, I was able to display all the data in my new report.

Re-opening a STP Multitrack Project after exporting Mixdown to FCP

Hello-
I'm running Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2 with FCP 6.0.5 and am sending my sequences from the timeline to an STP Multitrack Project. I have edited the audio as needed, and exported the final mixed tracks back to FCP choosing .xml import and open in a new FCP Sequence for my options. The new sequence opens fine, complete with the new audio tracks lined up with the originals which are conveniently muted. Up until this point in my workflow, I'm good to go, and my exported audio sounds great - until I realized there were several more audio edits that I needed to make before finalizing the project.
Now, in the STP Manual, it states that to re-open a multitrack project after it has been exported to FCP is as simple as control-clicking the "mixdown" file (which is presumably the same thing as the imported .xml file...?) in the open sequence and clicking "Open in Editor." (Note: I do have my prefs in FCP set to STP for ext. audio AND video editors so that I can send over linked a/v files) BUT - it also says that when you click on "Open in Editor" that i should be prompted with the option to open only the audio file or open the project. After following these steps, I am not getting prompted to make this choice; the mixdown automatically opens itself in STP as the single .aiff audio file created during export and not as the original multitrack project, as the manual suggests.
Am I making a careless mistake somewhere in here that I am overlooking? Have I provided enough information to get the help that I need? Any help here would be EXTREMELY appreciated.
-Meghan

There is a mismatch somewhere which is causing this sync problem.
Next thing to try - does your STP project sample rate match the sample rate of the audio in your FCP project?
In the STP project, on the projects tab, is "none" selected in the pullup/pulldown section, both audio and video?
In some cases, changing a frame rate can change the speed of the video, causing sync problems, so the earlier discussion about frame rates wasn't just semantics or terminology issues. I understand your frustration, but I was trying to help by ruling frame rate problems out.
