Run last configuration

How do I get Flash Builder to run the last configuration that was run? I have multiple projects open that aren't runnable but when I click on the run button it always tries to launch the project that is selected. How do I get around this? I set the eclipse launch properties to always launch the last one selected but it doesn't seem to change the Flash launch menu/button.

Recurring Documents run schdule configuration

Dear all,
I have a question regarding the recurring document run schdule configuration. my example is below
I received an insurance policy,
Period :23.02.2011 - 23.05.2011 (for 3 months)
amount: 15.000 USD
First I posted this policy to vendor account
31 vendor ABC                   15.000 USD
40 Prepaid Exp.acc.            15.000 USD
secondly I create a recurring document with below specification.
*Recuring entry run*
company code:1000
first run on :23.02.2011
Last run on:23.05.2011
interval months:1
run date:23
transfer amounts in local currency
copy texts
*Document header information*
document type:AB
currency/rate:USD
translation date:23.02.2011
Post. key:40 (insurance exp.account) enter amount (for monthly 5.000 USD)
Post. key:50 (Prepaid exp. account) enter amount (for monthly 5.000 USD)
and than ı execute document posting by F.14 and the document posted.
but I want to create a recurring document and posted this document according to the below calculation,
for february 2011= 1000,00 USD (15.000 USD / 90 days X 6 day)
for march 2011   = 5.166,67 USD (31 day)
for april 2011     = 5.000,00 USD (30 day)
for may 2011    = 3.833,33 USD (23 day)
how can I configure this recurring document.
Thank you so much.......

Hi,
For this scenario standard is not possible, why because if the recurring documents are maintained only for which is the amounts and date is fixed for this scenario is possibe for recurring document, then discuss with the abaper try to maintain userexits for this.

Please ensure that the applicationhost.config file is correct and recommit the last configuration changes made

I am receiving event ID 5189 on Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.5. I experience this error across a number of servers, each of which is running only the default web site, but have 600+ applications running on the default web site. Each application
has its own application pool. My point is, the applicationhost.config is rather large.
I have seen a number of posts on this error message, but my issue itself seems to differ somewhat. I am aware of a similar post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/3128ee93-1319-4cc2-9257-003512caf476/event-id-5189-microsoftwindowswas?forum=exchangesvrgeneral
which points to KB http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc734988%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
However, in my case, it doesn't seem that the extreme measures for this resolution are required. The error usually indicates a corrupted applicationhost.config that must be manually fixed, or otherwise the WAS service needs to be restarted, or the
server itself, etc.
In my case, the issue can usually be fixed by an application pool recycle, or at worst a stop/start. I have an application which is sensitive to recycles, and so we do not have periodic recycle events configured for this application, which is the bulk
of the applications on the servers. It seems to me that this issue is usually caused by the application being in use when there is an applicationhost.config change.
For instance, we have one application that we deploy using msdeploy. We found that when we ran an installation for this application via msdeploy, we were receiving this event, and we would subsequently get 500 errors in the application (sometimes the
application pool corresponds to that which is identified in the event log, sometimes it doesn't).    It seems like applications that were being hit at the time the applicationhost.config was modified by msdeploy were affected. In an attempt
to correct this, we moved from msdeploy to a batch file containing appcmd commands. This also did not resolve the issue.
I have another application which is installed using PowerShell commandlets. We started to notice that this script also caused the issue to occur on occasion. As I continued to identify different processes that resulted in the same issue, I came
to the conclusion that this is likely due to any change in the applicationhost.config. I assume the issue is that the applicationhost.config is modified during a read operation to the file by the application pool, or WAS service, and that the recycle
event, which corrects the issue, forces a re-read of the applicationhost.config, resolving the bad-read issue.
Has anyone else experienced this, or do you have any recommendations? My current work-around is to not install any applications during peak hours, and performing an IISRESET after installs are completed, to ensure application stability.

As an update to this issue, after doing some research, it appears the behavior is related to a new feature in IIS7 called Application Pool Isolation (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd163536.aspx).
This new feature prevents cross-application spillage by isolating the configuration for each application pool in IIS. So in reality, an application pool never actually reads the applicationhost.config - that is just a master file, and each time it
is update, it triggers a change to the individual application pool configuration files, located in C:\inetpub\temp\apppools.
We did try setting Advanced Settings > Disable Recycling for Configuration Change to true, but after an IIS reset we were still able to reproduce the issue - worse actually, because in our test program, which continually hits the web
service, and also continually makes apphost.config changes, when the two events collide, the 500.19 issue precipitates; but after an additional change to the apphost.config, it seems that the additional changes will actually correct the issue (seemingly forcing
another recycle, which is also how we resolve the issue manually); after making this setting adjustment, once the 500.19 issue precipitates, additional changes to the apphost.config does not correct the problem, only a manual recycle corrects it. This
is the recycling.disallowRotationOnConfigChange property of the app pool. We also set the setting for recycling.disallowOverlappingRotation to True as well, with the same result.
We ARE able to prevent this issue by setting the C:\inetpub\temp\apppools\myapppool\myapppool.config to read-only, but for obvious reasons, this is not a desired work-around.
It seems like what is happening is that any change to the ApplicationHost.config is resulting in each of the C:\inetpub\temp\apppools temp application pool config files being updated as well, in addition to triggering an application pool recycle. It
seems to me the desired behavior would be that these files are only updated if the applicationhost.config changes are specific to that application pool - but that doesn't seem to be the behavior.
After turning on failed request tracing, I was able to narrow the error down more:
ModuleName
AnonymousAuthenticationModule
Notification
2
HttpStatus
500
HttpReason
Internal Server Error
HttpSubStatus

Great!
The clock was correct but the NTP server is not reachable (behind a Firewall)
I have removed the NTP server, until the FW permit the NTP Protocol.
Now all messages are written into the config

Hello Adam,
You sent this other question (below) to my email box. I will answer it here so that other people will benefit from it. To unlock an object which someone has locked, goto homepage of SAP Exchange Infrastructure --> Click on the link at the upper right hand side called "Administration" --> Enter the User name and password (you might not have authorization) to display page --> Select "Lock overview" (left panel) and remove the lock of your selected user.
I've gone ahead to remove it for you.
Also, I did a check on your IS in the Integration Directory called, IS_DISPLAYPO_SUPPLIER, and there was no error. Did you fix it already? It looks like you have everything correctly defined in my first pass. Please let me know if you are still stuck.
Have you also asked your consultant to look into this?

Is it possible to use run-time configuration in conjunction with Session Manager?

I'm trying to avoid using MAX, basically because it's a pain for users to configure MAX when the application already knows what the configuration is. I actually get the configuration from a database, but that's another story. I've experimented with run-time configuration (see page 4-31 of the 'IVI Driver Toolset' manual) and it works fine. However, when I try to use this in conjunction with Session Manager, session manager complains that my logical name is not a driver session name. I suspect that Session Manager is looking up logical names from a different source, therefore run-time configuration won't work. Any suggestions? I've attached the files I'm working with.
Attachments:
SessionMgrTrial.zip ‏41 KB

Hello Mark:
The Session Manager GetLogicalNames method does not distiguish between logical names and virtual instrument names. A user of the method cannot ask for just logical names or just virtual instrument names. Right now you always get both. The new function is called InstrSessionMgr.GetNames. Notice that the online help file says Boolean for the flags parameter when it is an enum.
Hope this helps. If you have any further queries, please let us know.

It's often only a problem of the service dependencies. SCVMM starts to fast, SQL server on the same machine in not initialized yet. Here are working service dependencies to ensure SQL server is initializes before SCVMM starts.
You can set the service dependencies directly in regedit (as always: be careful modifying the registry ...)
Here is the content of a reg file setting the dependency.

My new MacBook won't run last.fm/audio scrobbler!

My first MacBook never had a problem with running last.fm/audio scrobbler. But I have tried downloading it on my replacement three times already, and it just doesn't open - it keeps quitting unexpectedly. I have tried to open it on 10.4.6 and 10.4.7. Is this a sign of worse things to come? Why isn't it working on this one but it worked on my older one?

Try downloading the 1.0.0 beta and then letting it update to the current version:
http://static.last.fm/client/Mac/LastFMMac1.0.0.1b.dmg
That solved it for me, oh and there seems to be some issue with iTunes open for some people, so you can try quitting that first.

Help running ./configure script

Trying to install 3rd party software. Attempting to run ./configure. Terminal keeps saying "No such file or directory." Can anyone provide me a little more info on how to run this script than the reference book I'm using?

the file name is simpson-1.1.2-macosx-intel.tar
I notice that the file has no file name beyond .tar Does this mean I still need to decompress it?
Before I started using Terminal with this file, I (may have) decompressed it just by double clicking on the file. This created a folder and in the folder was a readme document and 3 other folder, one containing documents and the others for the /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib directories.
Here are some of the instuctions given in the INSTALL document (being new to Unix, these instructions arent perfectly clear to me):
Basic Installation
==================
These are generic installation instructions.
The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
(useful mainly for debugging `configure').
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try
to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail
diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can
be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache'
contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
`./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're
using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
`sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
`configure' itself.
Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some
messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make' to compile the package. ....
