Solaris 10 panics during reboot after successful installation

hello,
this is the 2nd time i'm trying to make solaris 10 x86 (latest dvd version) to
run on my asus w1n laptop. /first i tried cd version in last december./
and again i'm not being successful. what happens is this:
after (i guess successful) installation the system reboots and it panics
during the boot process. where and why exactly i don't know -- it just prints
the kernel banner and i noticed a change of screen font. and when it panics i
have no time to write down or even read the message as it reboots in a second.
does anyone have an idea of what might be going on or how to overcome this
issue pls ???
/i want to give the system a try but so far i've got no chance./
many thanks,
martin
ps: pls cc me as i'm not on the list. cheers.

Martin,
as a first step, try booting with -v. This will give you more insight on just where your system panics. Obviously, your system at least gets across the point where the video driver is loaded - that's where the screen font changes.
Since you seem to be able to boot from a CD/DVD Media, you may also try to boot to single user mode from there.
Don't get confused by the absence of the usual device configuration assistant / 2nd level boot dialog screens when booting from an install media - at the point where you are prompted for an installation type you can also enter, e.g., "b -s" (without the "", of course) for a single user boot.
You may then try to look into /var/adm/messages on your hard disk installation. USUALLY, you'll find some hints towards the problem source there.
HIH, kind regards,
Me

Since you don't mention operating system, we assume you use Microsoft Windows something-or-other.
In which case, you open a command prompt, enter
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdba
startup
exit
and post the entire console session.
(Replacing the 'something-or-other' with 'version and service pack' in our public knowledge base would be very useful as well.)

Remove C:\Program Files\sapinst_instdir after successful installation

Hello,
do you recommend to delete the directory C:\Program Files\sapinst_instdir after successful installation.
It wastes ~500 MB disk space.
Thanks,
Juergen

yes.
if the installation was successful. i've experienced, that you won't read logs of a successful installtion anymore...
but you could also zip & archive it somewhere.
if you plan to do further installation you even SHOULD remove/rename the directory.

No response at all after successful installation of iTunes; please help!

After successful installation of iTunes (latest version 11) and confirmed that I agree to all terms, there was no further response.
I went to All Programs and double click iTunes, still there was no response as if I did not initiate it.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit.
I tried unintall and re-install it twice and the same happened.
Please help urgently. Many many thanks.

Well, I have just spent an HOUR (no, I'm not kidding or exaggerating) talking to Apple support, and the saddest thing is that they were not able to resolve my issue. Their suggestion is for me to create another email account, then a new Apple ID for that email address and if that does not help, they want me to come to an Apple Store and show them what's going on. I find that a bit ridiculous...

After successful installation of iTunes 10.6.1, iTunes will not open. Tried complete uninstall and reinstall, still not working. Cannot sync iPad or access iTunes at all. Any suggestions?

After successfully installing the iTunes upgrade to 10.6.1, Now I cannot open and access itunes. I have tried a complete uninstall and reinstall and it is still not working. I have looked through many support communities for answers. I added an iPad 2 almost a year ago and all was fine until my upgrade to the "cloud services" and upgrade to new version. I have been without iTunes on my PC for a month. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

I too have only recently encountered this problem. I have been able to burn disks before but it keeps making all these weird sounds. It might be a hardware problem but the fact that everything else that uses a disk works I doubt it.

Adobe Captivate 7 will not open after successful installation

After successful installtion of Captivate 7, I am unable to open/run the program. The error message below is received when attempting to open the program. I've installed/uninstalled the program twice both with the same results. Any thoughts on why this is happening??
My system details:
Windows edition: Windows 7 Enterprise SP 1
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU
Installed memory: 4.00 GB

Hello and welcome to the forum,
Did you install on the system itself, hopefully not on a networked drive? And is the default folder 'My Documents' on your system as well?
Which version: 32-bit or 64-bit. 4GB of RAM and a Duo, I would recommend 32-bit really.
Do you launch Captivate as an Administrator?

Solaris 10 x86 failed to reboot after initial installation due to display error

Hi everyone,
i just finished installing solaris 10 x86 on my computer, and the installation process went smoothly. However, when the system tried to reboot, i got some error related to the display of the monitor, which caused no desktop login can be displayed and no access to the console. I had no way to proceed with the any other operations. The error read as:
" Out of range<br />
Hf 30KHz - 70KHz<br />
Vf 30Hz - 160 Hz<br />
Current frequency<br />
Hf 90.3KHz "
I tried to boot to solaris failsafe mode and run "kdmconfig"
command to reconfigure video and monitor, but it did not work, since kdmconfig is not supported under that mode.
Because i have no way to login, the currently available solution seems not working with my situation. Dose anyone have idea or suggestion to figure it out, without reinstalling the OS from the very beginning?
Very appreciate your time and help.

Solution found:
First tried to login using "console login" when solaris booted up, before the desktop login window appeared. Then, run command "kdmconfig", changed the video device to X86 VESA compatible device, which is from the x86 driver and porting kit for solaris, then test/save and exit. After that, reboot the system. Now it is working, not perfect though (due to my old monitor) :)-

Cannot start solaris after successful installation. Monitor Screen blinks

After installing solaris 10 U 3 when it starts. The login prompt comes. Then it automatically tries to start X and the monitor starts blinking. Thereafter there is nothing i can do instead of restarting my computer.
My concerns are as under.
1. Is there a way to stop the solaris from automatically starting X.
So that I can log on into console mode.(In linux i just have to add 3 to the kernel parameters in grub.)
2. And, a procedure to change the graphics resolution that matches my HP5258 monitor.
I tried to start the solaris in failsafe mode but then I was unable to run the kdmconfig or any other command searched from the internet.
I am a newbie to Solaris.
Any help will be appreciated.

If no console is attached, you should be able to login via ttya.
Default resolution for many slightly older Sun systems is a "weird" one. 1152x960x67hz IIRC? Causes some monitors to go goofy :)
As far as setting the resolution, depends on your system. Older SPARC systems use m64config which is real easy to configure. If you've got an x86/x64 system, I think you're stuck using kdmconfig which can be a bit difficult to deal with at times...

Stuck on white screen during reboot after installing Snow Leopard

I had no problem with installation, but am stuck on the white screen during automatic reboot. I manually ejected the disc hoping that would help. I am not sure how to get past this white screen of death. I tried to reset the PRAM but nothing I do will get me past the white screen.

I am having this problem right now. It just goes to white screen during the installation right after rebooting. Just before rebooting it tells me to be 'ready' with the second disc, but then reboots and goes to white screen with apple logo and spinning gears....am I supposed to be putting the second disc in at this stage? Shouldn't it be prompting me to do something? Did either of you figure a way around this? Any help much appreciated.

NullPointerException during login after OIM installation

Hi all,
I just installed OIM 9.1.0.1 on a Solaris 10 SPARC system running WebLogic 10.3 and Sun JDK 1.6.0_14. This is running on a cluster of 4 managed servers with another host for the WebLogic admin console. After going through the installation and restarting WebLogic, I opened the OIM admin and user console (https://hostname:7002/xlWebApp/), entered xelsysadm as the user, and entered the password. This results in the following NullPointerException....
Does anybody have any ideas what the problem is? By the stack trace, it seems like it might have something to do with challenge response not being set... but how would you set it if you can't get into the app :)...
Thanks!

MacBook continually reboots after Mavericks installation

Tried to update OS to Mavericks. Installation was completed, however the computer now continually restarts at random times unless I start up in 'safe boot' mode. OS before update attempt: 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro. IT is currently wiping my computer clean and reinstalling OS from disc. Don't want to go through this again, but we're updating some other software that apparently requires the OS update.
How should this update be installed? I was told (too late) that I should be updating to 9.0 first, then do the software update to 9.2, does this really make a difference and how can I be sure that I am downloading that version and not 9.2?

No, that is not correct. 10.9.2 is the version you will get when you download Mavericks. See below:
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

Major system lag during reboot after install

had a leopard since release date, and have noticed something recently. It seems when ever I install a 3rd party app, the next time I got to reboot the system lags out with my desktop visible and the spinning gear thingy, but no finder, or dock. It just sits here for minutes until I press the power button to shut it down and then do a hard boot. Next time i go to restart it works fine. Any one else getting this? Is this some new maintenance it does that I am cutting short after over 5 minutes of this "lag" time?

< Just to further update - I am no longer having issues with the "you have installed drivers without rebooting", but every time I do install the X-Fi vista driver, vista hangs on the reboot...it will get to varying stages through the scrolling green bar welcome screen thing, and then will hang. Every time I do successfully boot, it says "No Audio Output Device is installed".
Any ideas?
It's getting rather frustrating...

Error when starting Sun ONE Web Server 6.1SP4 after successful installation

I am running Solaris 8 and I have installed Patch 108993-22 as stated in chapter 2 of the installation and migration guide. I have also installed patches 116602-01, 115827-01, 113648-03, 112396-02, 111317-05, 111310-01, 111111-04, 111023-03, 110386-03, 108987-15, and 108528-24 since they are necessary for patch 108993-22.
I have been stumped by this error. I have tried several different ways to install this software but I always get the same error. I believe that I have the latest version of the Sun One Web Server and I received no error notifications when I installed it! Any help would be apeciated!
Thanks!!!!!

I think this might occur if you don't have the patch for SunAlert 46042 installed. There's more information on this critical Solaris security vulnerability, which was reported back in 2002, at http://sunsolve.central.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-46042-1
Can you run the following command to check if you have patch 109326-09 installed and let us know the result?showrev -p | grep 109326If you don't have 109326-09 or higher installed, you should install it as soon as possible. You can follow the link from the SunAlert. Better yet, install the latest Solaris 8 recommended patch cluster from http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access to make sure your system is fully patched and up to date.

Iphone 3G spontaneously rebooting after successful update to iOS4

Twice now, after a sucessful but very long (5.5hrs) update to iOS4 and restoration of files and settings, I have had my Iphone 3G reboot twice. I think it's running out of memory...but since there's not multitasking why would this be?
Anyone else suffering from this problem?

Fingers crossed indeed. I have done the same procedure as you and issue still occurs. Spontaneous reboot a couple of times per day. iPhone is no longer usable as such. I am now trying the 'auto brightness correction' turned off suggestion.
I did a downgrade to 3.1.3 but I suspect the baseband software which is NOT downgraded!
