Safe libpng and libtiff upgrade with non-standard Cairo

I have the whole pack of Ubuntu's LCD rendering patches installed on my system. As the recent news post http://www.archlinux.org/news/libpnglib … m-testing/ says I have to "check the unofficial packages (especially the cairo-* packages from AUR) for required rebuilds". Do I have just to reinstall all these before or after the upgrade (I hope all my settings will be preserved?) or is it better just do not upgrade for a while?

When using pacman -R package, config files are stored, just the package itself is removed.
You'll install the new libpng/libtiff and AFTERWARDS you'll rebuild those packages, who need an upgrade.
Upgrading the libs later won't change anything about this.
[If you run into errors of packages relying on the older libpng14 (like AWN does), there is still the possibility to copy the new libpng15 to libpng14...though this is just a workaround and not to be recommended]

Sun cluster 3.20, live upgrade with non-global zones

I have a two node cluster with 4 HA-container resource groups holding 4 non-global zones running Sol 10 8/07 u4 which I would upgrade to sol10 u6 10/8. The root fileystem of the non-global zones is ZFS and on shared SAN disks so that can be failed over.
For the LIve upgrade I need to convert the root ZFS to UFS which should be straight forward.
The tricky stuff is going to be performing a live upgrade on non-global zones as their root fs is on the shared disk. I have a free internal disk on each of thenodes for ABE environments. But when I run the lucreate command is it going put the ABE of the zones on the internal disk as well or can i specifiy the location ABE for non-global zones. Ideally I want this to be shared disk
Any assistance gratefully received

Hi,
I am not sure whether this document:
http://wikis.sun.com/display/BluePrints/Maintaining+Solaris+with+Live+Upgrade+and+Update+On+Attach
has been on the list of docs you found already.
If you click on the download link, it won't work. But if you use the Tools icon on the upper right hand corner and click on attachements, you'll find the document. Its content is solely based on configurations with ZFS as root and zone root, but should have valuable information for other deployments as well.

Protecting Apache URLs ending in '/' with non-standard DirectoryIndex

I'm using Apache agent 2.2 for Acces Manager 7. My Apache version is 1.3.33. I have a DirectoryIndex line in my httpd.conf like so:
DirectoryIndex index.cgi index.html
So when I request the URL <http://server.edu/subdir/> I should get <http://server.edu/subdir/index.cgi>.
My problem is when URLs like this are protected by Access Manager. I have an inverted notenforced_list, which contains http://server.edu/subdir*. So only stuff in subdir should be controlled by AM. I want all 3 of these URLs to give the same results:
http://server.edu/subdir
http://server.edu/subdir/
http://server.edu/subdir/index.cgi
The first and third URLs work as expected; the second one (with a trailing '/') doesn't work. If I change my notenforced_list to read http://server.edu/subdir/*, then only the third (complete) URL works.
By looking at the agent logs in debug mode, it appears that AM is first looking at policy for http://server.edu/. That test passes, since that URL is part of the (inverted) notenforced_list.
Then the agent goes on to check the /subdir URL -- but it tacks on index.html:
2006-04-20 14:06:58.144 Debug 10883:252998 PolicyAgent: get_request_url(): Returning request URL http://server.edu/subdir/index.html.
Then it goes on to say that it will enforce policy on this URL, which is correct, but it's referring to index.html, not index.cgi. I'm never prompted for authentication, I just get a browser error that says the page cannot be displayed. If I ask explicitly for http://server.edu/subdir/index.cgi, everything works as expected -- I'm redirected to the AM server and prompted to authenticate, then redirected back to the URL I originally requested.
Am I missing something here? Has anyone else tried to protect URLs ending in '/' with a non-standard name?

Here is the log extract. You can see pretty clearly that it just tacks on 'index.html' to the end of the original URL, when it gets to the 2nd phase of the policy evaluation (after checking for root-level policy). Thanks for taking a look!

Terminal: Stored Remote Connection with non-standard Port?

Hi,
I am new to MacOS and I am amazed by the integrated terminal. However, I sometimes need to connect to servers which use a non-standard SSH port, for example, 2020. I know that I can manually connect, but for convinience, I'd like to have a saved remote connection including the non-standard port. Is this possible somehow?
Thanks,
Felicitus

I did some experimentation, using Terminal.
Terminal -> New Remote Connection -> Service -> [+]
now enter your own new service which includes
/usr/bin/ssh -p 50022
I found I had to enter a bonjour entry to get it to accept my new service, but once I did, I was able to use that new service with the custom -p 50022 port value.
Your mileage may vary. I still prefer iTerm.
Oh yea. In the future, Terminal and Unix oriented questions are better asked in the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix Forum

Cp and tar files with non printable characters

Hi all,
Maybe it's a silly question but just got stuck with this.
We have an XSan with diverse material from varios departaments. Besides having a backup on tape I was trying to just do a plain copy from a terminal of all the files to another disk just using cp or tar.
But whenever cp or tar encounters a file with a nonprintable char they don't copy it.
Let's say in the client Finder the named the file "opción.txt"
The file shows up in terminal with an ? but cp or tar won't get the file.
any clues?
thanks!

Cropping and outputting to a non-standard ratio

I have a video of a guy speaking and it was shot apparently on a camera that was turned on its side. Beautiful, I know. So, I need to rotate it, which is easy enough. But, when I do, I have space on either side because the ratio then becomes 3:4, and if I zoom the video in too far, the man's head gets cut off. SO, I want to be able to rotate, crop, and output the video to a vertical ratio like 4:8 instead of 4:3. Is this possible??
Same question for outputting to a 16:9 ratio.
If I wasn't clear enough, let me know.

OK, I may have confused you... Let me try this a different way.
How do I output my FCE movie to a file format like QuickTime so when I open the finished movie in QuickTime, the dimension of the movie is 300 W x 480 H, and not 640x480 with black bars on either side?
let me know if that still doesn't make sense what I'm asking.

10.6.5 upgrade issue: folders with non-standard chars in names unusable

Hi all,
I recently upgraded my XServe (2 x dual-core 2Ghz Xeon; 10Gb RAM) from OSX Server 10.6.4 to 10.6.5 (and applied several other updates: XCode 3.2.5, iTunes 10.1.1, Safari 5.0.3 and Java 10.6u3). Since the upgrade, I have a new problem whereby some folders shared via both SMB and AFS are unusable over the network.
The problem applies to all folders whose names either (1) contain atypical characters like *, > or /, or (2) begin or end in a space.
These folders are unusable over the network. Some appear, but others do not. Those that appear do not contain any files, even though they contain files when I browse them locally on the server. I cannot copy files into or out of any of the folders, nor can I rename them (remotely).
When I browse the local file system on the server, there are no problems whatsoever - the problems occur only when connected remotely. The problems occur with both SMB and AFS access; I have not tried other protocols.
These folders were heavily used by both Windows and Mac clients prior to the upgrade, and the problems are reliable and reproducible.
The problems are fixed immediately by renaming the files to have more standard names, and they re-occur if I name the folders back. I will encourage the users here to adopt more standard naming conventions, but this is a fairly serious bug that is requiring some tedious workarounds.
Any advice on this problem would be much appreciated!
Regards
Tim

Different OS have different naming conventions. As you notices there are characters the macs will let you use; that the PC will not. And there are also characters the pc can use that the macs can not.

One solution I know of is to batch scan/ rename files on a regular basis. Witch you could automate. to keep from generating lots of support requests. And to compliment this tactic you can educate the staff on file naming.
There are programs that focus on pc/mac compatibility. Basically they try to restrict the mac and pcs from doing any thing that would cause naming convention conflicts. I hear they help reduce the number of naming conflicts.
the other thing is verify the permissions on the share point. make sure no one can create files that other users can not see.
If you find a better solution; I'd love to know.
At least your not on the other side; I have window shares. And mac files can just completely fail to save, or if the file has a resource, the fork might be lost. I like mac shares better; because at least the files will save to the server.

Vendor Evaluation With Non Standard Main and Sub Criteria

Hi Gurus
I have a requirement wherein I have to evaluate a vendor on non stanadard Main Criterias like
1. Productivity with sub criteria as Receipt / Excepected Yield, for which I have used Scoring method 2
2.Quality Standards with Sub Criteria,- Germination (%),Genitic Purity % , Field level flags, for which i have used scoring method 7 by activating user exit- MM06L001
3.Raw Seed to Clean Seed ratio, with the same sub criteria and with the above scoring method and user exit.
The weightages given to the above three are 40 , 35 and 25 respectively.
Can you please tell me how to calculate the values for subcriterias( for example for my main criteria 2. i want to assign the weightaghes for sub criterias - Germination - 50 , Genitic Purity %- 30, & Field level flags - 20, . along with smoothin factors.
I want to automise the whole process and run the evaluation in the background.
An early reply will be very helpful to me.
thanks and regards

Is it possible to make a DVD with non-standard sized movies, w/o scaling?

I have some software tutorial material that I want to turn into a DVD. Since the video was created as a screen capture of a particular piece of software, the finished video is an odd size of 830 x 622 (I wanted to capture the screen dumps at their actual resolution, which looks crystal clear - and that was the size of the software's main window.) Note that this is still 4:3.
I edited the material in FCP 5, made a custom sequence setting of 830 x 622, and the exported final results are QT movies with a size of 830 x 622. We then flash-encoded these for web-broadcast at a size of 640x480.
What I am wondering is: now that we want to make a DVD, can a DVD be made that keeps this video at the larger size, so that it is crystal clear? So far, I experimented with using a few of the DVD format encoding options in Compressor, and it seems to end up as 640x480 no matter what I do.

I think you might be mistaken about the 720x480. When I make a new sequence in FCP, it calls 720x480 3:2, not 4:3. If I set it 4:3 (which is one of the two allowed DVD standards), it becomes 640x480.
Indeed, I have been trying various export experiments from Final Cut with Compressor using presets such as "DBD Best Quality 120 minutes - 4:3", and they all come out as 640 x 480. Furthermore, I can import them into DVD Studio 4 and they seem to work normally for now.
So, dragging my 830x622 QT movies directly into compressor and applying the above preset results in very good-looking, 640x480 MPEG-2 video. I had hoped there was some way to keep the higher-resolution of 830x622, but apparently DVD only supports a few standard pixel dimensions (4:3 at 640x480, 16:9...)

Repair / Subcontracting with non standard mov types.

Dear friends,
I have copied mov type 541 to 941 , 542 to 942 and 543 to 943.
When I post trhu MB1B .. with mov.type 941 , and receive it via MIGO with mov type 101 the system is determining the mov type 543 and not the 943 as we do need.
Does anyone knows if I got to change this behavior ?
This scenario is to use the same functionality of Subcontracting to repair materials. Other Ideas ?
best regards,
Ale

Hi,
Please go to the transaction code- ' OPKA ' and in the 'Parts Provided' column of the table replace 543 with 943 movement type for the movement type 101.Save your data and try again the process.
Please note that, the standard Sub-contracting procedure (541-101(543)) will be impacted with this change.
Regards,
Narayana.

Hi 3017122,
The certificate specified by the "TrustedCAFile" parameter does not contain a valid certificate chain.
Solution:
1. Connect to https://<YourServer>/HyperionFinancialManagement - the secure sign (padlock) should appear on the browser showing that the connection was secure (bottom right for Internet Explorer 6.0).
2. Double click the secure sign and go to the "Certificates Path" tab
3. Make note of the chains
4. Create a new TrustedCAFile with all those chains
see http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/pdf/secmanage.pdf on page 128 and following
5. Validate it with WebLogic's "java utils.ValidateCertChain" utility
see http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs92/pdf/secmanage.pdf on page 149
6. Modify the HYSL-Weblogic.conf parameter TrustedCAFile to point to the new certificate
7. Restart Apache, Planning and Workspace services
Drope me an email and I'll send you doc...
Good Luck,
-David

If anyone has a solution to this, please help out, because i have been stuck on this for almost 3 days now.
Any suggestions will be sincerely appreciated.
Thanks

1.0.1 is an older version of Java Web Start, which has since seen versions 1.2, 1.4.2, and now 1.5.
This is probably a bug in the old (1.0.1) version of Java Web Start. Please try with a newer version.

Embedded Windows Media PLayer With Non-Standard File Extension

I have embedded a windows media player in a asp.net web page, using the usual
<object> and <embed> tags. The video is served by an ashx (http handler). When I try to play the video, I usually (but not always) get an error message telling me that the file extension (ashx) does not match the file format.
This happens in IE (8, 9, 10, 11) and also in Firefox (latest) with the WMP plugin.
I know that the tags (with classid, etc) are correct because the media player displays and allows me to click the 'play' button.
The ashx returns the correct mime type (video/x-ms-wmv) and a valid file name (somevideo.wmv) in the response headers. I have tried content-disposition attachment and inline.
I have tried urls using 'http://', 'https://', and '//' (which I prefer)
If I put the url (including the .ashx) of the video file in the browser address bar directly, the video downloads and plays in the standalone media player.
If I modify the object tag to use a direct path to the video file (/somewhere/somevideo.wmv), it works - but I can't use this as a solution.
The same ashx serves up video and audio in various other formats with out any fuss - it just seems that the embedded windows media player doesn't like it.
This has been working for several years - I think this is some new behavior, though I can't identify what has changed, other than browser updates.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? Am I missing something simple?

Hi,
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default"
Advanced tab of Internet Options>uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"
f12>Networking tab, click the Start button, navigate to your page and observer the response header and content.
To determine if you page is being rendered in a x64 host (all IE versions and WaterFox, type
navigator.platform in the IE Developer tools Console tab,
Post questions about html, css and scripting for website development using MSIE browsers to the IE Web Development forum... WITH a link to your website.

ITunes loses songs with non-standard English characters

(I accidentally posted this on the iTunes for Mac forum. Same issue as described here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1593945
Any help greatly appreciated.)
I have just discovered that I have the same problem, however instead of changing the spelling, it has lost the files altogether. I cannot find them in the Music folder, and it only effects songs with different characters (ie. Sigur Ros, Jose Gonzalez, etc.).
I have no idea where the files have gone. It is really annoying, as I have loads of music which is like this, which now seems to have disappeared (they ar estill listed in iTunes, but it cannot locate the file when I try to play).
Please could you advise how I can resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Jules

Anyone got any suggestions? Really irritating problem.
