Self Hosted Help Desk

I am creating Users for my IT team and notice that the links go to track.spiceworks.com. I notice that this creates a user for the Help Desk App and on the community pages. Before I move forward I just want to know if what if any information of help desk app is shared with spiceworks servers. I don't want our things like ticket information or users credentials being stored where we don't have control over access. Thanks
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Hi Adam,
Thanks for your fast response. I think the problem I had was that I am not a coder and use Muse as it should be, for someone who is more of a designer instead.
The issue, which was one that I could not find any information, resolution not instructions about, is that you must do all you have stated to add self hosted fonts into Muse and your computer, these will then work perfectly in Muse and if you "Preview Web Page in Broswser".... but will NOT show up if you PUBLISH the website to the internet, hosted fonts will change to a default.
The ANSWER that is woking for me is that I am exporting to HTML first and the using Cyberduck or FileZilla as the FTP.... I had to create a file called FONTS in the root directory of my website and then dump ALL the font files.... SVG OET WOFF TFF (everything) into that file and make sure its published to my live site... that seems to work.
It may be that if you use Muse own Upload to FTP Host direct to publish then it automatically will do this but when I export to HTM first it doesn't do it.
I scoured the internet and could only find one reference to this and it may be that this is the answer to many peoples problems as it doesn't seem to be widely known that you have to do this.

Need help on Self Hosting Using channel Factory

Hello,
     Need Help.
     I am trying to self host WCF service using cutom Channel Factory class. but I am getting exception.
The scenario is something like below this : -
I want to create the endpoint connection to WCF service. I want to achieve this using custom channel factory(not using default channel factory API provided in .Net Framework).
I have written one class and it is derived from channel factory and we are reading the service endpoints, behaviors, bindings from external configuration file added in the project.
I am able to connect to server side service hosted on different machine using following sample code successfully.
In the case of “self-hosting”  I am receiving following error : --
     "There was an error reading from the pipe: The pipe has been ended. (109, 0x6d)."
Below is the code which I have written for self hosting WCF service using custom channel factory.
// Method where I am calling CustomChannel Factory constructor
internal void ProxyCall(string msgEndpointConfigurationName, string url)
            string appConfigDirName, extConfigFilePath;

Hi,
There was an error reading from the pipe: Unrecognized error 109 (0x6d).
One reason was inconsistent binding between client and server <netNamedPipeBinding> <security mode="None"></security>... (no
communication)
The other intermittent issue was time-out related.

Cross Domain error for Silverlight + MVC application with self hosted WCF service on azure

Hi,
We are migrating existing Silverlight application to MVC; existing Silverlight application is hosted on
Azure which is consuming self-hosted WCF service. For authentication we have implemented
ADFS with WIF (passive). The cloud service (<myWebSite>.cloudapp.net) is C Name to (<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com) and we
are consuming WCF service at <myWebSite>.cloudapp.net/<myService>.svc, as we were getting “Cross Domain” error so we have added “clientaccesspolicy.xml” at the root of “WEB ROLE”.
Existing Silverlight application works fine but the problem occurred when we deploy our migrated application to the same cloud service. We are getting a “Cross Domain” error.
The same migrated application works fine on UAT environment, the only difference is UAT environment is
without ADFS WIF implementation.
Migrated application is half Silverlight and half MVC with initial landing page is Silverlight. MVC web role is used to host the service i.e. .SVC . To go to SL landing page , redirected from home controller. Following is being observed in fiddler for this
application
Existing Silverlight application -
After authentication with ADFS it redirect to Silverlight landing page.
Before calling service method it looks for “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
In response header we are getting the content of “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
And after this everything works fine
Migrated Silverlight-MVC application –
After authentication with ADFS it redirects to “HomeController” and from there we are redirecting to Silverlight landing page.
Before calling service method it looks for “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
In response header we are getting following content - “https://federation-sts.<myDomain>.com/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignin1.0&
wtrealm=https%3a%2f%2f<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com&
wctx=rm%3d0%26id%3dpassive%26ru%3d%252fclientaccesspolicy.xml&wct=2014-03-17T10%3a36%3a04Z”
4.Throw “Cross Domain” error.
Also we have added filter in
RouteConfig
for .xml file
routes.IgnoreRoute("{*allxml}",
new { allxml = @".*\.xml(/.*)?" });
NOTE: There is no configuration change apart from MVC configuration.
We have done RDP to web role and found that “clientaccesspiolicy.xml” is present at “E:\approot” location and it is also accessible at “https://<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com/clientaccesspolicy.xml”.
Please help
Thanks,
Rahul P

Hi,
Please try to configure the cross domain policy file to allow public read access (that is, access it without federation requirement), make sure you can access the address
http://something/clientaccesspiolicy.xml directly in a browser
without redirecting to check whether the cross domain policy file could be anonymous accessed (Please start a new browser session and make sure you're
not logged in. Then test the cross domain policy file.).

Help Desk Assign permission on mailboxes script

Exchange sp3
Outlook 2010 sp1
I've come up with a script to give to the help desk that will save me from having to do lots of remedial work. The script gives the full access permission and send-as on a mailbox.
This script works but for some reason I cannot get the input window to appear on my screen
Here it is.
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic')
$Identity = Read-Host "= [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("Enter the name of the Mailbox", "Username")"
$user = read-Host "Enter the name that will have full access rights"
$AccessRights = read-host [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("Enter the name that will have full access rights", "Name")
$ExtendedRights = Read-Host [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox ("Enter the Extended Rights")
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName(“System.Windows.Forms”)
[system.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::show("$Identity $user", "MyTitle")
Add-MailboxPermission -Identity $Identity -User $user -AccessRights $AccessRights
Add-ADPermission -Identity (Get-Mailbox $Identity).DistinguishedName -User $user -ExtendedRights $ExtendedRights
Help please,
alexis

The following worked for me
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic')
#$Identity = Read-Host "= [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("Enter the name of the Mailbox", "Username")"
$Identity = [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("Enter the name of the Mailbox", "Username")

Database design for Help Desk application.

Hello does any one know
Database design for Help Desk application.
ERD
Business rules and features
?

The best way to approach a database design is to write a
specification for the application. Document what processes the help
desk technicians will do. In the process, identify what pieces of
information they work with. When you have the complete
specification written, you can then begin grouping the pieces of
information they work with together. For example, a ticket may have
a number, status, priority and a person to whom it is assigned. The
person to whom the ticket is assigned will have a name, phone
number, e-mail address and a list of technical skills.
So in this overly-simplified example, we could have a table
that contains ticket information, a table that has information
about technicians and a table of skills. Then ask your self
questions like "Can one ticket be handled by more than one
technician?" "Can one technician handle more than one ticket?" Can
a technician have more than one skill?" In this way, you can begin
seeing the one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many relationships
that exist.

Trouble with self-hosted web font

So I applied a self-hosted web font to my website and it was working. However recently in some browsers the font hasn't been showing up, instead being replaced with helvetica or some other standard web font. Why would it be doing this? I've tried clearing my browser cache and it doesn't work. It's also happening to some of the people visiting my site which is a huge problem.

Hi Sanjit, I have the same problem on this website - green headlines should be in Etelka Wide Medium which my client purchase and I aded to as self hosted web font to adobe muse.
It works normally in Muse, also in preview after export to html but doesn't work online after upload ( I have tried it on two different server). I tried it on easy webpage no using muse and it works properly. What can I do? Font are in the fonts folder after export and also in css. I am working on Macbook Pro with OS X Yosemite, browsers Safari and Google Chrome both.
Thank you very much for your help,
Elena

Hi,
To add to Rohit's requests, were these screenshots captured on Internet Explorer 8?
There is a known IE8 issue with displaying multiple weights of the same font that are close to each other (e.g., light and extralight).
Also, any particular reason you are using Raleway as a self-hosted font when it is natively supported as an Adobe Edge Web font?
Thanks,
Abhishek

Self-Hosted Web Fonts

I have problem with self hosted fonts I have added to MUSE.
It works normally in Muse while working, also in preview after export to html but doesn't work online after upload ( I have tried it on different servers).
I tried same web font on easy webpage not using muse and it works properly. What can I do?
Preview after export to HTML:
After upload to FTP in Safari / Google Chrome is the same
Fonts are in the fonts folder after export and also in css. I can see it as self-hosted web fonts, Matching System Font is also OK.
The example of not working page:
menuEN - all green headlines.
I am working on Macbook Pro with OS X Yosemite, browsers Safari and Google Chrome both. Font is Etelka - if it is important.
Thank you very much for your help,
Elena

Hi Abhishek,
the site is directly uploaded using MUSE Upload to ftp host. When I open it with ftp client, there is off file of etelkawidemedium in fonts file.
And I have tried to upload plain webpage with the same web font - not made in Muse and it works.

So what should I do?
The answer from Shaun is little bit complicated for me:)
Thanks, Elena

Can i self host a blog on adobe muse

I want to have my blog on my website but I want to use thinglink.com and need a self hosted blog

I'm not understanding your question fully. From your statement I understand that:
(1) you currently have a website
(2) you want to place a blog in your website
(3) you want to host your website/blog at a host provider different from Adobe catalyst
(4) you somehow want to link your blog to thinglink
Do I have it right?
If so,
Where are you currently hosting your website?
Do you currently have a blog (ie. Wordpress, Blogspot)
How exactly do you want your site to interact with thingkink?
I can help you more with these questions answered.
Regards,
Doc

Self Hosted web fonts not finding system matching font.

I Purchased Museo Sans Rounded form myfonts.com and installed the .ttf font in my iMac, and then i uploaded the additional formats to the Self Hosting fonts panel but I still get the error that it cant find the matching system font (neather was i able to do it manuly). What is interesting is that i cant even find the font in fontbook. My fonts refused to give me support with this claiming that they aren't familiar with Muse and the .ttf is not supported for desktop installation.
It was an expensive purchase, please help me out.
BTW I'd like to continue to use the desktop version of this font from typekit. is it posable or they will conflict?

The prefs for 2014.1 are in:
"~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.1/Local Store" (copy and paste everything, including the tilde ~, but not the quotes, into the Go > Go To Folder dialog in the Finder)
From the old 2014.1 folder you want to copy:
fonts.db
selfhosted
tk1
tk2
into the new prefs folder for 2014.2 at:
"~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.2/Local Store" (copy and paste everything, including the tilde ~, but not the quotes, into the Go > Go To Folder dialog in the Finder)
Once you've done that, when you launch Muse all the self-hosted fonts and Edge Web Fonts you had previous installed or enabled should be present.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

How to Implement BW in IT Service Desk/IT Help Desk /IT Complain Surveillance Dept/IT Customer Support Dept?

Hi
If a organization have 200 to 300 daily complains of there IT equipment/Software/Network e.t.c.
How to Implement BW in IT Service Desk/IT Help Desk /IT Complain Surveillance Dept/IT Customer Support Dept?
Is there any standard DataSources/InfoObjects/DSOs/InfoCubes etc. available in SAP BI Content?

Imran,
The point I think was to ensure that you knew exactly what was required. A customer service desk can have many interpretations from a BI perspective.
You could have :
1. Operational reports - calls attended per shift , Average number of calls per person , Seasonality in the calls coming in etc
2. Analytic views - Utilization of resources , Average call time and trending , customer satisfaction , average wait time
3. Strategic - Call volumes corresponding to campaigns etc , Employee churn and related call times
Based on these you would then have to construct your models which would be populated by data from the MySQL instance for you to report.
Else if you have BWA you could have data discovery instead or if you have HANA - you could do even more and if you have a HANA sidecar - you technically dont need BW. The possibilities are virtually endless - it depends on how you want to drive it and how the end user ( client ) sees value in the same.
