Server rename & links (CS5 & 10.6)

Our existing server (Windows 2003) will be decommissioned shortly and replaced with a newer storage server (Windows 2008). From past experience I know this will wreak havoc with our designers and as such we have been liaising with them. Our designers run OSX 10.6 with a mixture of CS3/CS4/CS5.
The bad news is we don't seem to be able to find a sure fire way of preventing any linking problems! Can you guys help?
At present for our lead designer, the links in a .INDD file look like;
/Volume/DOMAIN;SVR01/Share/Folder/To/Images/image1.jpg
I don't know why the links look like this... but, ultimately, what will change is the server name, so from SVR01 to SVR02 (for example)
Can I modify the links of all our INDD files easily to reflect this?
Our designers don't package their documents.

I just tested it on CS5 (7.0.1 Mac) and it works for me. I am not lucky in that our admin haven't changed our server names for years, so I don't have such a problem -- even when I open a file created on Windows on Mac, or vice versa, InDesign silently updates all the paths, it finds them even if a folder name changed.
So I made a little test:
1. Created an ID document on Windows (CS3)
Paths of links looks like so:
\\10.44.54.70\Test\images\foldername\subfoldername\imagefile.jpg
2. Deleted "images" folder -- otherwise ID finds them
3. Opened, converted and resaved the document in CS5 -- all links are missing now
4. Restored the deleted folder in Links panel paths look like so:
Macintosh HD:10.44.54.70:Test:images:foldername:subfoldername:imagefile.jpg
(ID tried to find missing links and screwed paths up)
5. I manually relinked a link to see a correct path -- it looks like this:
TEST:images:foldername:subfoldername:imagefile.jpg
6. Reverted the document.
7. Run the script with parameters on the sceengrab -- all links were restored.
Note: Preferences > File handling > Preserve image dimensions when relinking should be checked on.
As far as I am concerned, I don't have this problem -- but often see on forums that other people encounter it -- that's why I wrote this script (and its numerous variations). But I have no idea how useful/less it is, and if it works for anybody except me.
Anyway, if you want me to continue developing it, I need more detailed input, sample files, screengrabs, etc -- just saying that it doesn't work is not enough for me to figure out the problem.
Regards,
Kasyan
P.S. To quickly get path of a link in CS4/5, right click in Links panel and choose "Copy Platform Style Path"

"Exception Processing Message" error when clicking the Accessing Server Data link on the start page

When I first started the application, I click the Accessing Server Data link on the start page. I immediately got the error "Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c in a dialog box titled "Windows - No Disk". I had to used Task Manager to remove the box after closing Flash Builder 4. I then tried the video tutorial on "PHP Services in Flash Builder 4". I keep receiving an error during service introspection trying to connect to the PHP class. It was the same error as the other individual "Cannot Connect to PHP Service". So I tried another tutorial and generated a sample PHP class. I moved a datagrid on to the stage, droped in the getAllItems function, and configured the return type. However, when I ran the app, I received the same error "Exception Processing Message" again. I have attached the screenshot of the error in addition to my phpinfo and log files.

"The exception process message" is definitely a issue. Is it happening consistently, if so can you file a bug at bugs.adobe.com/flex and give out your machine config details, and the error log.
With regards to generating a new php file and the introspection error that you are getting, looking at the logs it probably is two fold.
First off the name of the file and the class name should be the same, are you having employeeServices as the name of the class in employeeServices.php file.
Second, It seems prior to generating this new file, you had a syntax error at line 5.
It would be easier to figure out what the error is, if you can also attach the php file, by removing any sensitive information in that.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

SQL Server 2K "Linked Server" to Oracle 9i Release 2 via "Oracle Provider

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a SQL Server 2000 "Linked Server" to Oracle 9i Release 2 via "Oracle Provider for OLE DB". I have downloaded and installed "Oracle Provider for OLE DB Release 9.2.0.2.0"
My SQL*Net alias/datasource in tnsnames.ora works (It passes the test in "Net 9i Configuration Assistant", I can connect from SQL*Plus, and I can get a Linked server going with the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle").
When I set up my Linked Server with Oracle Provider for OLE DB, I need to supply the following three fields (with description from the read-only field at the bottom of the "Linked Server Properties)
Product name: (The product name is the OLE DB data source to add as a linked server.)
Data source: (The data source is usually the name of the server or filename.)
Provider string: (This is the entire provider string.)
Here is my tnsnames.ora entry that works as described above (names may have been changed to protect the innocent)...
PROD9I.XYZ.LOCAL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nn.nn.nn.nn)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = PROD.ora2.xyz.mno.com)
With every combination of values I have tried for these fields, when I try to use the Linked Server I get this error message...
Could not create an instance of OLE DB provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle'.
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: CoCreate of DSO for OraOLEDB.Oracle returned 0x80040154].
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you,
Daniel Jameson

Thanks Norman.
Well, I've made it a step closer. I uninstalled everything Oracle from my machine and reinstalled the 9i stuff, including the Oracle OLE DB Provider. Now, after I set up the linked server, and I try to view the Tables or Views under the Linked Servers, I get this error message...
Error 7399: OLE DB provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' reported an error.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' IDBINitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
Does anyone have any idea what this is about? My other Linked Server using the same Oracle SQL*Net alias, but using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider, works fine.

Convert file path in application server as link

How can we convert file path in application server as link to send email.
Thanks
Suresh

Your app server folders have a mappable location on your network, e.g,
server\path\filename. Use an HTML anchor tag and build the link with code. You'd be better off storing files on a file server (write to a mapped location from the app server) and link to there (same process).

SQL Server 2012 Linked server

We have created a linked server in SQL 2012.
Using this we are able to access tables,procs and functions.
But we are not able to access functions using dynamic values

Hi S.Vijay,
According to your description, as other post, you need to show a clear question and more experts can assist you. About linked server in SQL Server, after we configure a linked server, we can
enable the Database Engine to execute a Transact-SQL statement that includes tables in another instance of SQL Server, or another database product such as Oracle. Linked servers offer the following advantages:
•The ability to access data from outside of SQL Server.
•The ability to issue distributed queries, updates, commands, and transactions on heterogeneous data sources across the enterprise.
•The ability to address diverse data sources similarly.
There is a similar issue about access function on remote server through linked server, you can review the following post.
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e639d83f-3829-4bdb-89e8-6ae1b958ee2c/can-i-access-function-on-remote-server-through-linked-server?forum=transactsql

Trying to print on a DNS 323 printer server (D-Link NAS Box).

Hi,
I have a Macbook with Snow Leopard and I am trying to print over a DNS 323 printer server (D-Link NAS Box) in a (Windows based) home network. The printer is a Canon MP190 and I have the latest driver. Whenever I try to set it up in system preferences it does recognise the printer but seems to be unable to connect to it when I try to print.
Also, every time I try to print the connection to the server is lost (as in I cannot access the files on it in the finder).
My flat mate tried printing over the server with windows 7 and it worked immediately.
Any help would be very welcome!
PS: I've tried Guten-print but the MP190 is the one printer that they don't support...

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
The Canon driver for Mac OS X cannot be used when you have the printer connected to a print server other than an Airport device. For these types of connections, you need to use a CUPS based printer driver like those offered through Gutenprint or PrintFab.
Since the MP190 is not yet supported by Gutenprint, you could look at using PrintFab, however you will need to buy this software after your trial period. Or you could wait until the next version of Gutenprint is available - maybe this version will support your model.

Server Side Links (Node Link): caught exception

HI ,
Following error is showing up in System Audit Trace Logs:
Server Side Links (Node Link): caught exception
I am not able to figure is out why this error is coming.
Can any please explain the reason of this error..
thanks

Hi
Thanks for the link, it is indeed a good example. However, whilst it has some interesting points, it seems to narrowly skirt around the issue i am having (as do most examples in fact).
Perhaps i should have been more clear that the problem i am having relates specifically to entities that have already been persisted, and all i am trying to do is edit them. In the example you sent, if bean-validation fails then the entity is not persisted, so no problems. However, when editing an already persisted entity, form submissions trigger an automatic database update via the EntityManager (provided JSF validations are passed), so my real problem is avoiding this.
Any input appreciated.

Sharepoint won't open office docs after server rename

Hi-
We renamed our SharePoint server and everything is fine. However, MS docs won't open within SharePoint anymore. We have an Office Web Apps server and that hasn't been touched since the rename... Is there somewhere on the Web Apps
server where I need to change the name of our SharePoint 2013 server? Any other ideas? This was working fine before the server rename.
Thanks in advance!

Hi ,
Is there any related error message in ULS log?
Please use the following PowerShell cmdlet on your SharePoint server to re-create a new Web Application Open Platform Interface (WOPI) binding between your SharePoint farm and the OWA 2013 server, then check results again.
New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName <OWAServerName> -AllowHTTP
If above doesn't work, I would suggest you can re-configure the Office Web App for SharePoint with the steps from the following article.

Edit files on a server with dreamweaver CS5

I am having a problem editing files directly from a ftp server. I just updated to Cs5 from Cs3 and seem to of lost the ability to edit and change files on a live server. I understand that I can download an entire site, but with the amount of sites that I maintain this is not doable storage wise. I am assuming there is a way to bypass the local/remote server sync, but have yet to figure it out. I have search the forums and support FAQs but alas found nothing.
Thanks in advance for your time
Nate

Hi Nate,
in these cases I'm not a friend of a detailed troubleshooting. It is one of the reasons that I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
For this reason, to manage, for example, several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and
http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Mac: Mac OS X
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server.
Good luck

Embed streaming video from my own Server into InDesign CS5

Hi all,
I try to place a streaming video into my Indesign CS5 Document. InDesing seems to find the File, cause it shwos up the preview image in the Media Window, but the videoslider nor the play-button of the media-window is working.
the link (Red5 Streaming Server):
rtmp://87.230.53.80/oflaDemo/personaltv/bewerbermagazin/wuerzburg/test/video.flv
When I export it as an interactive PDF, and I click on the videoframe, it first shows the security dialog as expected, but after that it is only the empty player and the progressbar looks like it can not connect to the streaming server.
Is there a workaround?
Thanks in Advance for any hint!
P.S.: If I load it from my webserver via http:// ... it works great.

I think this isn't really an InDesign issue at all. It sounds like an Acrobat issue.
First, you haven't said what version of Acrobat you're using. I'm assuming Acrobat X Pro?
I've used this with a friend's Flash Media Server so I know it works. What version of Flash server do you have installed?
I the link you provide I see a spaceband after the word "test" in the path. Could that be a problem?
Other than that, it appears that you're following the requirements listed in the Help file for Acrobat X Pro.
If you have further problems, you might post this on the Acrobat User Forum.
