Run again the server assistant

I got a minimac server with Snow Leopard Server and when I installed I configured all the details like it was going to be a server only for internal use but now I want to use the mail and iChat server from outside and I dont know how to change all the parameters so every computer gets an update preferences for all services.
How can I run again the server assistant? or how can I change the preferences? I dont find anything neither in WGM or Server Admin.
Please help

I have used the changeip so now the server is using the external dns name but in server admin the Computer Name is the external dns name but the Local Hostname remains the same.
I think I understand what you are saying and that sounds correct. If you post real names then I can double check for you.
Another problem is the automatic configuration, mail, ichat, address book, still uses the old names. How can I change managed clients?
Not sure if you are saying the names of the services on the server HAVE changed and are all working correctly, but the client setups are now wrong? If that is the case and you need to change settings for Managed Clients then, I cannot help, but others here should be able to. I suggest this question may be answered and you should start another one that will make it easier for others to reply to.

Issue with opening a site in SharePoint Designer 2010 -The version of SharePoint foundation running on the server is more recent than the version of SPD you are using, you need a more recent version of SPD.

I have a SharePoint site which I am trying to open in SPD 2010, I am getting the following error(some of my team members are able to open)
The version of SharePoint foundation running on the server is more recent than the version of SPD you are using, you need a more recent version of SPD.
These are the ways I tried
1) Earlier I have MS office 32 bit and SPD 32 bit, I uninstalled them and installed both 64 bit versions
2) I uninstalled restarted my machine and installed it again still no use.
3) I installed SPD 2010 Service Pack 2 of 64 bit
4) I uninstalled the SPD 2010 and opened the site—site actions—edit page in SPD , then it asked me to install SPD 2010, then I installed and tried to open the same site, again same error.
How to solve this issue?
I checked permissions also at that site level – I have full control like others. I don’t have access to Central Admin so where else I can check the permission settings?

Please update us SharePoint version

Where is the Server Assistant?

One thing that has really been rubbing me the wrong way about Lion Server is the lack of accuracy in the migration documentation. It refers to the "Server Assistant", but I don't encounter it running anywhere, and when I reinstall the server, it doesn't ask me if I want to migrate settings.
I have an old XSERVE G4 with 10.5.8 Leopard Server, and the documentation (http://images.apple.com/macosx/server/docs/Upgrading_and_Migrating_v10.7.pdf) states on page 26 that I need to utilize the Server Assistant (not the Migration Assistant) to migrate my data on my 10.5 server to 10.7.
I have reinstalled and played around with various scenarios over 10 times now, and have come up empty, unable to resolve this issue. Does anyone have any ideas, or accomplished this successfully yet?
Thanks in advance!
~Mike

Okay, so the Migration document is incorrect about what triggers the Server Assistant (or at least the process doesn't work as documented-it looks like the Server.app install doesn't remove the correct file).
But the solution to get it to work is pretty simple:
- Have the Server components installed.
- boot into single-user mode.
at the command line run the following:
mount -uw /
rm /var/db/AppleSetupDone.something (I don't recall the extension, but tab completion will fill it out)
Reboot and (I believe this requires having a valid 10.5.8-10.6.8 or greater server drive attached) the Assistant won't be the standard client Migration Assistant, but the Server Assistant and you will be asked if you want to migrate.
Transfer and go (haven't gotten that far yet, it's still in progress, but at least it's going). No idea if this will actually work, particularly given the other issues, but at least it's a start.

Please try below mentioned steps:
1. Central Administration > Monitoring > Review job definitions > Look for following timer job "Application Server Administration Service Timer Job" > Disable
2. Then open windows administrative services (services.msc), stop SharePoint Timer Service
3. Clear SharePoint Timer configuration cache by following steps mentioned in below blog:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jamesway/archive/2011/05/23/sharepoint-2010-clearing-the-configuration-cache.aspx
4. Start SharePoint Timer Service and give it a few seconds so that the new XML files from the location you deleted then are re-populated.
5.Central Administration > Monitoring > Review job definitions > Look for following timer job "Application Server Administration Service" Timer Job > Enable

Can I create a custom SCSM task that runs on the server?

I'm new to SCSM (got roped in as the developer/Powershell guy). I see instructions for adding a custom task to SCSM, which I know generally run from the user's console, under their security context. I also found a reference to "runtime tasks" which
run from the server. Is there a way for me to make a custom task that runs from the server?
If it helps, I'll be creating a task that implements the Poweshell script found
here that converts an incident to a service request. I'd much rather the conversion take place on the server so that we don't need to deploy the SMlets Powershell module (and another dependency) on each user's workstation.
Thanks!

To find out the database running in the Server

Hi,
How to find out the number of database running in the server other than this command : ps -ef | grep pmon
Thanks,
Suresh Bommalata.

There's no single answer.
1. What if one or more of the database instance(s) is/are down at the moment that you run "ps -ef | grep smon" ?
2. "ps -ef" cannot be used on Windows.
3. You could check the oratab file (the location is platform specific -- generally /opt or /var/opt or /etc on Unix/Linux) but not all databases may be registered on the oratab file
4. You could look for the running (if any !) listener on the server and check the listener.ora listener.log file (database instances do not need to be in the listener.ora !)
So : You have to run multiple checks.

Needs a background webdynpro application running at the server side

Hi All,
We have a requirement wherein we need to have an application running all the time at the server side to capture the response coming from a web application. Based on the response that the application receives, it needs to update some backend R/3 tables.
We are thinking of a webdynpro java application.
Can anyone suggest what kind of application needs to be implemented here?
And what would be the steps required to run the application at the server side without calling the application.
Thanks & Regards,
Anurag

Hi Robin,
Thanks for the detailed explaination.
This may sound silly to you but I've another doubt which is as follows:
As you mentioned that the external web application will be sending requests to our Web service(in SOAP envelopes) and rest of the functionality can be achieved by our web service.
Actually, we are expecting only responses from the external web application. The thing is that we are sending the requests to the external web applications from our custom webdynpro application and in return the web application will be sending us 2 responses.
First response would be back to our WD java application URL(to the browser in which WD java app is running) which would get the response and display some message based on the response.
Second would be to this web service which you have just suggested. We are having two responses so that even if the browser in which the WD java application is running gets accidentally closed, the response from the external web application must get captured somewhere else and should not get lost in any case.
So, now since we are only expecting the response from the web application and we do not want any requests from the web application to our web service; how is this possible?
I am asking the above question because you have mentioned that the external web application has to request our Web service but we want is only this web service to capture the response coming from the Web application.
Or is it like the web application will send us the response string as request string to our Web Service and the web service will capture these response parameters as request parameters from the web application and do the further processing.
But in that case, we do not want any response to be sent by the Web Service to the external web application.
Please suggest if this is possible.
Once again, many thanks for the help so far.
Thanks & Regards,
Anurag

A thread running in the server

Hey ho, didn't know where else to post this...
I'm running Orion web server with mySQL. What I need is a thread, that would perform certain tasks hourly.
Any tips how to do this ? I don't have any clue.

After some research, I finally found a solution. For those interested, here's the code:
import java.lang.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.text.*;
public class UpdaterThread extends Thread {
      long sleepTime = 1000 * 60 * 60;
      long lastUpdate;
      boolean running = true;
      public UpdaterThread() {
      public void run() {
         while(running) {
               // Do the stuff
            synchronized(this) {
               lastUpdate = System.currentTimeMillis();
                  try {
                     this.wait(sleepTime);
               } catch (Exception e) {
                     e.printStackTrace();
      public String getTimeRemaining() {
            long theTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - lastUpdate;
         theTime = sleepTime - theTime;
         return DateFormat.getInstance().format(new Timestamp(theTime));
      public void stopThread() {
            running = false;
}If someone thinks there is a bug in my code, please tell me asap ! I haven't put this to use yet.

SharePoint 2013 - document libraries and newsfeeds are visible when viewed using Internet Explorer running on the server but not from any other machine

On a single Windows 2012 R2 server I have installed SQL 2012 and SharePoint 2013 SP1 with the latest update roll ups. When I remote desktop to the server using the farm and site collection admin account and open page http://server_name_here using
Internet Explorer, I'm able to see newsfeeds and document libraries.
If I connected to a separate Windows 7 machine as the farm and site collection admin account and open page http://server_name_here using Internet Explorer, I'm able to view the SharePoint pages except I cannot see any newsfeeds or document libraries.
There's just blank space where they should be. I have repeated this process on several other machines that are not the server and get the same result on every machine (I've tried other servers, desktops, adding the SharePoint site to the trusted sites list
in IE, even using firefox). I'm using the same account as I did when I logged onto the server directly. Any thoughts as to what's going on?
Thanks!

Thanks for the idea, Harsh. What am I looking for?
It is currently set to the default of http://server_name and http://server_name:port_number (the latter is for Central Admin).
When I have access to the server, I have always done so the same way, using http://server_name. This was true when I access it from the desktop of the server itself and when I tried to access it from other desktops and servers (the machines where I had the
issues with the libraries and feeds not showing up). Are there other values I should add?
I have not tried to add http://server_FQDN as we don't plan on using that to access it but if you think it will help I would be happy to add it.

Running on the server- but not in other machines

Hi everyone,
I have a starnge problem....i have setup a site in my Tomcat 4.0.6 and it works fine when i am tesing it on the server...but when i try to access the site from other than machine in which my Tomcat is there it's giving null poniter exceptions.I have found out the cause...i.e session varibles r not getting set...so it's giving that problem...previously that site was working well with the same code...and also i did not use many session variablea(so not the session varible overflow problem)....is there limit for the "webapps" folder size..my "webapps" folder size is 1.5 GB.
I am very much struggling with this untoward behaviour of Tomcat 4.0.6..I would be thankful to you if you could help me ........Thanks in advance....

Can you post the JSP code which you are trying to access?

Why does a job still show as running on the server even after it's deleted from Instance Manager?

Deleting a job in Instance Manager doesn't seem to delete the job on the actual server. Is there another location where we need to cancel the 'connection' to the database from where it's running?

I should also note that this only seems to be an issue with music that was purchased through itunes. Once I delete songs purchased through itunes on my iphone 5 they still show up with the cloud and down arrow and I can still play them. I do not want them visible unless I choose to download them.

For no reason the MMC for WSUS is not connectiing to the server

All,
I rebooted the WSUS server after a windows update and now I cannot connect to the WSUS server. I get error: connection error. I've reviewed all posts for this issue, but none of them help. This is ridiculous as I finally got it working

Thank you for your input. At least you're not like Lawrence giving poor information.
Hmmmm.. having been working with this product for eight years now, while sometimes I make an erroneous statement, it rarely happens these days.
In this case, it is Yan Li who has given you incomplete information. In addition to the split-server scenario not supporting the
database on a Terminal Services server (which is the information provided by Yan, but not really relevant to this conversation), it is also true that WSUS has
never been supported on a Terminal Services server.
This was posted to the Release Notes, historically, but due to several omissions in the WSUS v3 SP2 Release Notes, does not appear in that document. (That is to say, the SP2 release notes were exclusive to the SP2 feature set, and were not inclusive of the
RTM and SP1 limitations and issues.)
Here is the entry from the
WSUS v3 Service Pack 1 Release Notes:
WSUS 3.0 SP1 is not supported on servers running Terminal Services
Although WSUS 3.0 SP1 may still run on servers running Terminal Services, doing so is not supported or recommended. WSUS 3.0 SP1 will not run on a server running Terminal Services in configurations using remote SQL Server implementations. Because all remote
custom actions (including installation) on a Terminal Services license server will be run as the system account, and the server's system account may not have permissions on the remote SQL Server, the installation may fail.
