Go through the Doc id 1067138.1 at Metalink below is the extract.
The following procedure must be done by a UNIX administrator or by an Oracle BI Administrator with sufficient privileges.
To download Oracle BI installation files under UNIX:
   1. Log in as the user who is to run the Oracle BI processes.
   2. Insert the Oracle Business Intelligence infrastructure installation DVD.
   3. Change to the directory where the installation DVD is mounted (or change directory to the downloaded software).
   4. Download the Oracle BI files by using FTP to copy them to the desired server and directory.
      Note: Make sure to FTP all the files in binary mode, including license.xml.
   5. After the files are downloaded, check that the files in the top level directory, such as setup.sh, have execute permissions.
      execute the command: ls -la or ls -ltr

Illustrator CS6 "side-by-side configuration error"

Hi,
When I try to run Illustrator, it would give me an error message that says " C:\Program Files\ Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS6 (64 Bit)\Support Files\Contents\ Windows\Illustrator.exe The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail." I am unable to get on Illustrator and deactivate my license so I can reinstall the software. I'm currently using a Windows 7 64-Bit laptop. Thank you so much

What you could try is remotely debugging the executable, so you can use highlight execution and see what is going on, because error 59 is a network error.
if you aren't familiar with how to create a .exe that can be debugged, here is a tutorial
http://ae.natinst.com/public.nsf/web/searchinternal/8da679805915de40862572d5007b2f70?OpenDocument
You could also see if there is a different acquire input data vi that still does what you want, and see if the error still occurs.
Good luck

Side by Side Configuration ERROR - PLEASE HELP

I have Lightroom 3.0 installed on my external hard drive which I access always on the same USB port on my laptop. After 30 hours of editing I unplugged the device thinking it was safe. My laptop got hit by a virus that just messed my entire laptop up causing me to take it to best buy where they supposedly wiped my laptop and then reloaded it with a new OS. One that looks totally different to me but I did not think this was going to affect my L3 on my external harddrive. I plugged in my device to the laptop and get hit with this error when I click on it:
e:\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom3/lightroom.exe

Hi,
I'm not sure what the problem is, but I can give you some basic suggestions about what you could do.
First of all, check if there are more detailed error messages available in the defaultTrace.trc file. You can open the file using LogViewer service in Visual Administrator.
Also, check the settings for Database URL, and make sure you have set the SQL Engine option in the Additional tab to "Native SQL".

Hi NickDeNora,
According to your description, we need to verify if you install
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) and
correct the manifest file. The manifest file is readable (although empty), but we cannot edit it (even if you are an administrator). Only SYSTEM has access to the file. So to be able to edit it, you must first take ownership of
it and grant ACLs. After saving the file, then run the setup again.
For more information , see:

Error message: "application cannot be opened as side by side configuration is incorrect"

When trying to open a number of programmes including Microsoft Works Word processor is "application cannot be opened as side by side configuration is incorrect"
How do I tackle this please!

Hi
To be honest I never meet such problem with the operating system but firstly I would recommend trying to repair the OS.
Boot up the notebook and press F8. Then choose option called Repair the Computer.
Now you will see a some options. Here I would recommend choosing the first option called: Startup Repair.
This option automatically fixes problems that are preventing Windows from starting.
But Im not quite sure if this is good enough to fix your issue with the system.
If this does not help I would recommend reinstalling this Microsoft Works package.

What happened? After this morning Firefox's update, I couldn't get into Firefox but got this message, "The application failed to start because it's side-by-side configuration is incorrect.

This morning I went to go into Firefox, a message came up stating it was updating. After the update, Firefox didn't open, so I clicked on the icon and got this message. C:\Program Files (x86) Mozilla Fire\firefox.exe. The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. I tried removing & re-installing and I even try the Window's restoration point of a couple days back and I still get the message. Has anyone had or have this problem?

That SxS error seems to be caused by a corrupted Visual C installation that requires some DLL files to be reinstalled.

Reporting Services UserToken SID's error

Hi All
I know there is loads on the web about this but none of it is fixing the issue.
We have SCCM 2012 R2 (Not been upgraded from 2012) and SQL Server 2008 R2.
All was working fine till a couple of days again when some uses started getting the UserToken SID's error. Have tried everything but cannot get it working. Check AD membership for the reporting service account, removed and re-added user to refresh permissions
but still the same error.
Anyone any idea's
Thanks

Hi,
Could you please upload a screenshot of this error?
If you login with a SCCM Administrator account, can you run the reports?
Please check the permission for these users failed to run the reports from Report Manager URL.

"Side-by-side configuration is incorrect" when trying to install MS DirSync tool

Apologies if this is the wrong thread, but it seems like every thread is the wrong thread for this one :) Yes, I've checked all the other "side-by-side configuration" threads, but none of them seems to apply to this case.
I have a SBS 2012 machine, acting as DC, AD DS and DNS, and our organization has recently signed up for Office 365 Online E1, and we've migrated our mail there. Everything is set up, but now I'd like to sync our AD with MS Online. I enabled directory
sync in the admin user and group controls on the Office 365 site and as per instructions, I downloaded the latest version of DirSync from here:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/18429.microsoft-azure-active-directory-sync-tool-version-release-history.aspx.
However, when I try to install it on the server, I get this error message: "The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please run sxtrace or see the application event log for more detail."
Sxtrace gives the following results:
=================
Begin Activation Context Generation.
Input Parameter:
Flags = 0
ProcessorArchitecture = AMD64
CultureFallBacks = en-US;en
ManifestPath = N:\temp\dirsync.exe
AssemblyDirectory = N:\temp\
Application Config File =
INFO: Parsing Manifest File N:\temp\dirsync.exe.
INFO: Manifest Definition Identity is (null).
ERROR: Line 0: XML Syntax error.
ERROR: Activation Context generation failed.
End Activation Context Generation.
Things I've tried:
Other posts seem to indicate that it's often an issue with missing visual C++ libraries, but I installed both the 2008 and 2010 C redistributables for x86 and x64, and nothing has changed.
One solution for a similar message had a typographical error in an xml configuration file, however in this case the "Application config file" field is blank.
As several other (non TN threads) around the 'net recommend, I ran SFC. It appears to work for others with the same error message. It fixed some issues and spit out a huge log file, but the problem persists, and I don't know where in the log
file to look, assuming anything in there is relevant (the file is over 700kb, so I'm not going to start spamming big chunks of it just yet unless I know what to look for).
The problem seems to come up in the context of software development (another thread on this subject is about the user developing an application from scratch) but I have no background in software dev, and this is supposed to be an official tool from Microsoft,
for crying out loud, not some homebrew thing I'm putting together.
This one issue is keeping us from moving ahead with our entire plan for user access, so any help would be
much appreciated. Thanks!!!
