Solaris 9, /var/sadm/install/contents and fix-modes issues

I'm in the middle of patching a bunch of systems right now using Martin Paul's PCA and Casper Dik's fix-modes and I'm getting some rather odd error messages from fix-modes after installing the Recommended and Security patches from 06 August 2007.
I'm seeing this on better than a dozen machines right now, and it doesn't seem to be consistent on which entries have the problems.
Here's a snippet of the fix-modes output:
WARNING: Unparseble mode "?" at /var/sadm/install/contents:107
WARNING: Unparseble mode "?" at /var/sadm/install/contents:1238
WARNING: Unparseble mode "?" at /var/sadm/install/contents:2348

secure-modes: WARNING: Incomplete entry at /var/sadm/install/contents:2377
secure-modes: WARNING: Incomplete entry at /var/sadm/install/contents:2380
And here's the lines referenced in the snippet above:
107: /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config d none ? ? ? VRTSweb
1238: /etc/opt/SUNWsrspx d none ? ? ? SUNWsrspx
2348: /kernel/drv/vxapm d none ? ? ? VRTSvxvm

2377: /kernel/drv/vxdmp.conf ? none VRTSvxvm
2380: /kernel/drv/vxio.conf ? none VRTSvxvm
Has anyone seen this behavior before? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remedy this?

IMHO the only thing that should modify the contents of /var/sadm/install/contents is a system utility. There is work currently underway to update the way that this file is modified.

Differential flars for install & Population of /var/sadm/install/contents

We are using differential flars to speed up installation, and have noticed that the /var/sadm/install/contents file is not being updated with the files coming from the packages in the differential flars on installation. Is this something that should be done automatically? Or is there something that we must do at flar create time or installation time to enable this? Thanks.

Luupgrade to install new OS uses corrupted /var/sadm/install/contents file

The /var/sadm/install/contents file on a system got corrupted, big time. I figure my best course of action is to reinstall the OS, because the server is currently out of service, waiting to be deployed to a new application.
Because I'm still learning about luupgrade, I decided to use that route to re-install Soloris9. I have done the following:
metadetach d0 d20
metadetach d3 d23
metaclear d20 d23
lucreate -A 'Solaris9' -n 'Solaris9' -m /:/dev/dsk/c1t1d0s0:ufs,preserve -m /var:/dev/dsk/c1t1d0s3:ufs,preserve
then,
luupgrade -u -n Solaris9 -s /cdrom/cdrom0/s0
This ran fine, almost... Output from luupgrade included a notice that 19 packages failed to install properly. I found the list of the 19 packages, and the output from their pkgadd. These messages indicated that there were problems with the /var/sadm/install/contents file, preventing these from being added.
Is it possible to run luupgrade to install a brand new OS, without using the current/active BE's 'contents' file, but still using other system configuration info like vfstab, dfstab, passwd, shadow, ...
Thanks in advance for help.

Your friend with a Mac first downloads it onto his Mac using your Apple ID. Then for Mavericks, see the following for creating a bootable installer on a flash drive.
http://www.macworld.com/article/2056561/how-to-make-a-bootable-mavericks-install -drive.html
Scroll down to the section Create the Mavericks install drive: The options
For Yosemite, 10.10, I don't know if anyone knows yet how to make a bootable flash installer for that. When it's released I'm sure there will be ways of doing that published in the usual places.
And if you want to get 10.10, I would strongly suggest not getting it right away. You should wait for at least several point updates until most of the very well known bugs are gone.

Ipad2 losses cell connection now that iOS 8 was installed. Ios 8.0.2 did NOT correct the issue. Come on and fix this issue!

Hey everyone-
Im in the same boat, started a thread . My hands free system worked fine with iOS 8 out of the box new iphone 6. Did the update this morning and i can stream music perfectly fine however i cannot make or receive calls through hands free system.
I have not tried resetting the settings like most people indicate is working. I feel like I shouldn't have to reset anything, even less mess with settings with an update coming from apple. it should "Just Work"
Some people who reset said it works for a few hours, other say it don't work, and I don't know what I should do.
Car: Hyundai Sonata 2014
NOTE: I was able to replicate the issue in my wifes Hyunday Elentra 2013.
This is how I know its not a defect with the BT in my car.

TS3694 So I have an iphone4g in recovery mode. followed all the steps to the T. Error pops up in itunes 1602. Prior it was powered off during erase all content and settings mode waiting to reboot

So I have an iphone4g in recovery mode. Followed all the steps to the T. Error pops up in itunes 1602. Prior it was powered off during erase all content and settings mode while waiting to reboot. Now its back to the apple logo. Any ideas if powering it off during the erase all content damaged the software?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

Does moving sites using Content and Structure cause issues in SQL content db's?

I would like to be able to use "manage content and structure" to move sub-sites within a site collection (SharePoint 2010). For example I have a site that is right under my top level site and I would like to move it to be the child site of one of
its' current peers.
There is some concern from admins that this creates a mess in the content DB, therefore all moves should be done using powershell export/import.
Can anyone tell me, technically, what happens when we use the move command in "content and structure" within a site collection and if there are known issues with it?

It doesnot hamper Content DB, all changes are made within the Site Collection Content Database.
using Manage content and structure has benefits, like UI based content restructuring, no support required from Farm Admin. However if you feel to use PowerShell you could still go for it.
Enable developer dashboard, to see what happens in the backgroud while using Manage Content and Structure.
Hope this helps!

HT201363 I am receiving an authentication request at launch on my desktop. I am unable to satisfy the password and then it freezes. Uninstalled and re-installed yesterday and have same issue. I think it is a podcast feed, but cannot delete

I am locked out of my Itunes. When I launch on the desktop I receive an authentication request from www.podshow.com that I cannot satisfy with password. Actually i don't ever remember giving them a password. When I cannot satisfy the password it locks up my screen. When I went to the website listed I could not satisfy the password to even get onto the site. I am pretty sure it is a feed, how can I delete it and get back into my itunes? I uninstalled and re-installed yesterday- same issue

Web content and viewer UI issue

I have a pure CSS3 bar chart web content overlay which has several buttons and radio button for the user to interact with which animated the data of the graphs. My issue is that every time I tap on an interactive element the viewer app UI keeps showing and hiding on each tap.
I've created another bar graph with jQuery and have the exact same issue. I've used web content with other HTML assets both jQuery and CSS3 and these navigational elements don't have the same problem.
Is it the fact that I'm using form elements to trigger the interactivity istead of links?
I've also ran a test using http://www.oesmith.co.uk/morris.js/ donnut chart which is jQuery/SVG based and I get the same issue.
Any clues?
Many thanks!
Mariya

You need to make sure that your JavaScript code indicates it has handled the tap events. If not you'll wind up with the event bubbling up to the viewer and triggering our navigational UI.

[SOLVED] Steam not working or installing well and AMD drivers issues

Well, I figured this was the place to post.
I just installed Arch in my main box. Since I tried to install steam from the repos using pacman but i got the 'package not found'.
So I downloaded from the mirror in the official arch repos.
Then i was going to run steam (that's in /usr/bin/steam) and the script couldnt find a file that was just next door. Thing was, the script couldnt find a file next door cause it will try to find it from / . I added /home/[myuser] .
I changed the code sightly to my directory so it will find the .xz file.
Then, the client apparently installed (since it created a .steam dir) but it did not appear on the screen. I tried running it from .steam, but i get absolutely nothing.
Also, looking at the script, the installation should have created a desktop icon and, it did not. So its possible that the installation itself is not working.
Since I make this thread (and since i have your attention) , I want to post another problem that may be, maybe lagging my XFCE interface.
Its the AMD drivers for my 6950 cards. I saw that the drivers ran with good performance on one of the games I like, so I tried to install them.
Weirdly, they didnt (couldnt run a module at the ending) ... it thre an error saying that there were problems with the installation. I wasnt running X, and no drivers were previously installed.. but I booted into X and it worked, and also I can see the signature saying 'Testing use Only' from AMD at the bottom.

And this sounds like you don't know how to install Arch packages.

Um. Where did you get that driver? Because this thing is so old, AMD does not do the watermark thing anymore.
I did pacman -Sy , why it still cant find it?
Got the driver from the page, its a beta driver.. You sure? Im triying to reinstall but i still get an error.
Please, enlighten me.

HT204053 someone hacked and changed my APPLE ID about a month ago, but after calling support and fixing this issue, I'm still having problems with my iCloud account as it is still trying to use the hacked account

Is there someon in support who can help me match these up again? The hackers just took my account email name and added a number "1" to it and now I can't access icloud!

The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

When I sync my I phone 4 to my pc the pc goes into not responding mode. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes twice today to try and fix the issue with no luck

When I sync my iphone with my pc my pc goes non responsive and itunes acts like it is syncing but the syncing never completes and after a while I try to stop the sync to find that I have to go to the task manager to end the task. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes two or three times with the same results. Anyone else ever experience this?

I solved my own problem....I simply moved the cable to another port while moving the mouse to the USB ports on the opposite side of the computer....and the computr finally recognized the phone...I know it sounds weird but it worked...so if you are having the same problem that had trying removing all the crap you have plugged into the USB ports on your computer THEN plug in your IPhone 4s...use the cable that came with the phone and nothing else...good luck..>!!!

Preview and design mode issues

I would like to report a couple of glitches in Muse.
Problem #1:
I had a pair of photos that I added some text with in a separate text box. I had problems with alignment, so I put the photos into a slideshow with the text:
I hit enter to space everything out properly, and a portion of the text moves above where I want it, and overlaps existing text, and the column shrinks:
If I hit enter again, then delete, the text moves back to where I want it to go.
Problem #2:
On occasion, when I preview a page I am designing, it looks jumbled with text in places I never put it and opacity is reduced, like it's under layers. I deleted all text on the page and re-previewed with no difference in how it appeared, text still jumbled and out of place with text I just deleted. I revert to last saved and luckily that fixes it, but it sets me back a few steps. I didn't save any screen shots from that fiasco, but I did with the next one that occurred:
in Design mode I added the red links on the left of the Home page like this:
Preview showed a mess with the text I have on the master page like this, no links, and nav tabs placed above everything:
I have sent this to Adobe for a response with my export file and screen shots and haven't heard anything back yet.
Please advise.
Thank you,
Chad

I have updated Muse to
Realease version
V2.2, build 6, CL 770942
AIR Runtime: 3.4.0.2540
I made some changes to the "Animal Facts" page,
Saved it, Exported it, then uploaded it to my server.
What is shown in "Plan mode" is consistent with what I have designed, but I can't get it
to publish that way:
Now the changes that I made aren't showing up in the Firefox preview when exported, the Firefox view once published, or the preview within Muse.
Further the screen that shows up I can't find on the "Design mode" to change or delete it:
