Solaris installation related questions/problems

I've recently purchased Sun's Solaris 8 OE media kit 2/02.
I tried installing them on two computers and experienced the following problems:
On my Pentium 3, I get the following messages when during the first steps of installation:
Determining bus types and gathering hardware configuration data...
Warning:Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: PNP0C01
Memory: 9FC00-9FFFF, FFE0000-FFF7FFF,FFF8000-FFFFFFFF,
FFC0000-FFDFFFF,FFF00000-FFFFFFFF
ACPI device: PNP0C01
Memory: 9FC00-9FFFF,E0000-EFFFF,40FFC00-FFFFFFF
Warning: Resource Conflict - both devices are added
NON-ACPI device: ISY0050

ACPI device: ISY0050
Port: 3F0-3F1,3F2-3F3,3F4-3F5;IRQ:6;6JDMA:2
Most surprisingly, the installation worked!!!
However, if anyone understands what the above means, its implications or other important information, I'd like to hear it and its workarounds if any.
On my newly purchased Pentium 4, I had to first remove my Ethernet card to prevent system boots during installation. My problem is that I have some hardware conflicts.
I have a "15 LCD monitor from LG.
Display adapters: ASUS vn179 DDR v28.32
GeForce 4 MX 440 64 MB BV17 Internal (MV)
I think that these two are causing the problem.
As a result, I cannot install Solaris with the windowing system.
I cannot see these types when choosing hardware devices.
Please advise on this matter.
I tried choosing some other hardware from the configuration list but the installation halted.
Am I doomed with this computer not having Solaris on it?
Last is a matter of Solaris residing on a single harddisk with other OS.
I want to have Solaris, Redhat Linux 7.3 and Windows XP Professional.
In what order should I install the OSs?
Is it recommended to make partitions before any of the above installations take place?
Which OS should go into each partition if it makes a difference?
P.S.
I'm a total newbie to Solaris and plan doing some Java programming on it.
So using a GUI is absolutely essential to me.

Hi TH,
You can install UPK server with WS 2008 R2 SP1 without any issues(may it be standard or enterprise edn.). Oracle database 11.2.0.4 can be used as well.
You can refer the installation guide for version 12.1 incase you have any queries.
You would only need to open the database port(eg 1527) or so on the subject server. There are no other specific port opening requirement on the firewall (port 80 must be open as well, but mostly it is not blocked on servers).
Let us know if you have any further queries or if you have any issues.
regards,

Solaris installation - ORA-01034

On my Solaris installation I am getting a - ORA-01034 error at the Database Configuration Assistsance screen
olny option I get is to ignore or Abort
I get about 20% loaded then I get the error
Any suggestions?

Hi,
What are the other messages u r getting.
R u getting ORA-27102 also.
This problem is the result of the kernel parameters for Oracle not being setup properly in the /etc/system file.
Please see the Installation Guide for complete instructions.
Here is an example of the Oracle related settings in the /etc/system file.
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=20
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=2000
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=70
Please reboot your machine after making any changes to the /etc/system file.

New to Solaris (unix) - basic questions (please)

Hello!
I am completely new in Solaris World, and in fact in Linux too. All I can do (may be) is to walk throught dir tree. I have one big question and many many small ones. I've just installed Solaris 10 (writing this there), I am very happy and I don't know what to do. I hope you can give me some advice. Well, the big question is where to get information about how to do basic tasks I've been doing in windows?
The smaller questions (problems) is:
1) When I boot solaris it actually goes to console, and no window system (GNOME, CDE) appears. I've already been lucky for 2 times and I managed to launch windows by typing 'gnome-terminal', but it ofter respond with something and no window system lauched. Can I do so, that window system launched automatically?
2) I have primary partition on my hard drive with FAT 32 to share files with WindowsXP. Where can I see these files in Solaris (may be I should mount, how?)
3) How can I see files on my USB flash (how to mount)
4) Do I have to install drivers for my monitor(video card) in Solaris?
5) When I type 'man' its ok, but 'man ls' respond 'No manual entry for ls' (and all other commands. How to fix it?
6) Where I should store my files (doc, music etc. ). In windows its typically on different partitions (folders)
Thank you, and hoping for help.

Well you've a long road ahead. But heres a start:
Answer to Question 1) /usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -eQuestion 2) If there are FAT32 driver in Solaris 10 (There weren't to my knowledge in Sol9 or earlier) you would need to mount them.
'man mount'
Question 3) would be similar to the answer to question 2, although you may be able to configure autofs for it 'man autofs'
Question 4) Not necessarily, but to get full functionality of your video card, yes - see manufacturers website
Question 5) Your MANPATH environment variable is bad OR you did not install them .... try 'pkginfo SUNWman' if it returns anything but not found try 'MANPATH=/usr/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/sfw/man ;export MANPATH' You can add additionaly directories pointing to manpage install locations by adding a colon followed by the directory.. first off hit 'man man'
Question 6) Gnome will help once you get it going (see answer 1). Otherwise store it however you like, just don't let the root partition get full or you'll likely crash it.

No Disk meet the criteria for Solaris installation

Hi all, I have a problem when trying to install Solaris 8 (Intel) on my PC. There are some funny things happened while installing the OS.
1.) My motherboard does not support booting from CD-ROM, so I downloaded a Device Assistant Boot Disk to boot it up. Then I use dd.exe to make the boot disk from the image, I have tried many times that after creating the boot disk, this boot disk will contain 512 bytes of bad sector. So why?
2.) After using this boot disk to boot up and install the OS, before entering to the detection of the bus type stuff (still on the white screen), at the bottom of the screen, it says "ata_command select failed ... ...", what does this mean?
3.) When the system go back to the white screen with language selection, I choose English (which is 1), and the system try to find my hard disk, but it failed and says "No Disk meet the criteria for Solaris installation" with a new line saying "installation documenation found.". So what is happening?
Appreciate for any help.

Did you check that your adaptec scsi controller is
supported by solaris and/or has a working driver
(from sun or adaptec) ?
Here's the HCL for solaris 8 x86:

How do I determine what type of Solaris installation I have ?

I'm runnig "SunOS PSP 5.8 Generic_108528-13 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R" but I would like to determine the type of Solaris installation I have....do I have a a "development" installation ? Do I have all the SUNW developer packages ? Also what are the "types of installations" that are possible ?
I'm thinkig about download the mysql binary (from Sunfreeware.com) and I went to the dpendencies site (http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/freeware/s8u7dependencies.html) to check what dependencies exist and I saw the following line (among other non "related" info.):
mysql-3.23.43 gcmn-1.0 ncurses-5.2
What exactly does this mean ?

Hi
You can check the type of solaris install from the below file

Software Related Graphics Problem

Hey Guys,
My iMac C2D 17" early 06 has been having some software related graphics problems. It hasn't occured a lot but it has happened a few times. Small black dots or bars may appear but when I click or hover over them with the mouse, they go away. So, I am thinking that it may be the hard drive because it could be misreading something that could make it not show certain pixels but I am not really sure.
Any help will be well appreciated.
Thanks

RAM Specs:
2 sticks of 512 MB PC2700 CL 2.5 Apacer RAM. I don't know if this matters but they're in DIMM slots 1 & 3.
I downloaded nForce drivers (version 5.10 as Richard suggested) and everything installed fine. However, the computer freezes whenever I'm using MSI liveupdate.
So, instead of using liveupdate I downloaded the nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia.com. During installation the screen flickered three times, and immediately after this the only thing appearing on the screen was a blinking cursor in the upper left; the computer just hung at this point.

Solaris 8 - No Disks that meet the Criteria in the solaris installer documentation

Hi there
I am installin sloaris 8 in Pentium Pro Machine with Quantum Firball Hard
Disk 10 GB , at installation time the Solaris recognize the existance of the hard disk by givingme the option to load from CD ROm or the Quantum Hard disk but later on it gives me the following message
No Disks that meet the Criteria in the solaris installer documentation
Your help will be appreciated
Thanks

Hi
I am using IDE Controller not SCSI, the Hard disk is being partitioned using Dos FDISK , When i got this problem Solrais write this message after the error i mentioned before
Please Check the system or try another installation option
then it gives me Unix Prompt , I tried to use FDISK but could not get the right Disk name , I tried FDISK /drv/dsk/c0t0d0s0 or /drv/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
but no way , I am new to Unix any way , I tried to get the disk name through df,sysdef,prtconf but could not as well , I guess may be the solaris partition is the problem ? may be if i could creat a solaris partition it will solve it ? , I am using the full version of solaris 8 not the beta one.
Thanks for your help

Two related questions: ColdFusion 10/Java applications and J2EE supported servers

I have two related questions:
1. CF10 and integration with Java Web applications
We have a couple of Java applications running on JRun and interfacing with CF9 applications. The JRun clusters were created through the JRun Admin and, apart from lack of Axis 2.0 support, have served us well for years now. And, as would be the case, the ColdFusion9/Java/Flash application is a critical public-facing application that the business uses for bidding on projects.
It appears that with ColdFusion 10 on Tomcat, we will not be able to run those Java applications on a Tomcat-CF10 JVM cluster. Is this correct? IF so, what are our options?
2. J2EE Application Servers supported by Adobe for CF10
Which of these is correct?
A. This URL (http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-enterprise/faq.html) states "ColdFusion 10 supports IBM® WebSphere, Oracle® WebLogic, Adobe JRun, Apache Tomcat, and JBoss."
B. This URL (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf1 0/coldfusion10-support-matrix.pdf) states:
"J2EE application servers: WebLogic Server 10.3, 11.1, WebSphere Application Server 7, ND 7 JBoss 5.1, 6.0, 7.1.0"
I *think* "A" above is wrong re. support for Adobe JRun. It does not specify a version of Apache Tomcat unless it is simply referring to the custom version the comes with CF10.
Option "B" above shows no support of Adobe JRun or 'standard' Apache Tomcat.
Thanks,
Scott

Question 1 above was answered: "No support for Java web applications under CF10's custom version of Tomcat"
Question 2: No answer yet: Is Apache Tomcat (NOT Adobe's customized version) supported for CF10 J2EE deployment? I do not see any installation instructions on how to install CF10 on Apache Tomcat 6 or 7.
Is anybody using Apache Tomcat as their J2EE app servers and, again, NOT Adobe's customized/limited version?
Thanks,
Scott

Minimum Solaris installation for Directory Server

Hello,
i want to set up a new Solaris installation for Sun ONE directory server.
But i don't want to install always the "entire distribution" and then turn off all services. I want to keep the solaris os installation as small as possible. Has anybody tried this before and can report some experiences? Is the "reduced network" cluster the right way to go or better the "core" cluster? Does anybody have a list of the packages which must be installed after a minimal solaris installation for the ds to work?
Thanks a lot,
af_inet

Since you original question is "minimum requirement
at the SERVER", I would say that X is not really
needed at the server end if you use installer text
mode CLI (command is "./installer -nodisplay")
instead of installer graphical mode (GUI). However,
to fix uninstall/reinstall issue, X is needed as the
"prodreg" which is used to uninstall packages is a X
program, without text mode option.This is correct.
It is not a must to run ./startconsole (X program)
LOCALLY so as to perform DS admin functions as you
could always run SUN ONE Console REMOTELY from any
remote host (Windows or UNIX/Linux) with just the
console binaries installed. (for large data centre
env. the LDAP server is usually locked in server room
away from your desk and you tend to use remote admin
console).This is correct too. I think it's a matter of taste if i want to install console on the DS itself or on a separate host. As long as i have only one DS i will leave it on the machine itself. But you are right, this is not a must. So i should have asked my question more precicely :-)
Thank you very much,
Chris

Actually, we cannot (at least anymore) directly email the team. I tried and got a reject from the mail server. So, I'm going to post here so I can feel better knowing I said something and then I can get back to programming :-)
Ok, I’ve been developing Windows apps since Win 3.1 (yeah, a long time) and have always admired the Microsoft attitude towards Developers and it’s desire to educate and empower R&D.
So, I’m wondering what’s going on? Why am I being asked to have an account to develop anything for MY own PC? Why am I being asked for my Microsoft account password, repeatedly, when I’m just looking up documentation on UserControl or C3 keywords…
repeatedly? This is nothing short of annoying and it gives me pause and concern about the ecosystem. Is the plan to lock down programmer’s capabilities, knowledge and tools?
I’m involved in the TAP program for Windows 10 and have voiced concerns in the same category with regard to installation and deployment of Universal Apps. Security is not a reasonable excuse. Some of us love to program and actually
control their PCs. We are not planning to sell everything we write on the Windows Store. What happened to programming something cool for your home network or just for friends? We need, and used to have, Microsoft’s support in doing
this sort of thing. Documentation and tools are more important now than ever. I’m saddened to see the direction things are heading…
If there is a sane reason I’m being badgered to ‘log in’ to read .NET documentation every hour, please share. If not, please consider lobbying to get things back on track.

DW CS5 Missing Related Files Problem

Hello
Hoping somebody may be able to help me with a missing related files problem in CS5. I've tried Adobe phone support but they couldn't solve the problem.
*Some* of my sites (but not all) are not showing all the files related to that page. My pages are typically in .asp vb server model and contain .asp virtual includes (header, nav etc) plus .js and .css linked files
However DW is only showing the .asp includes as related files and not css or js ones. In design view the CSS is displaying correctly, and all styles appear in the CSS inspector but not showing as a related file in the bar. In CS4 it works fine.
I've tried deleting the site and recreating it, copying the files to a new folder and setting up a fresh site, creating a new folder and downloading all files from the remote server but no joy. I've also tried refreshing related files. if I click on the filter in the bar it only shows the asp includes and nothing else.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated, this is a great feature when it works
Cheers
MB

UPDATE:
Managed to solve this problem, this is a new issue to DW CS5, previous versions do not seem to exhibit this problem
It occurs when you use site root rather than document relative paths for js/css etc files AND don't have the remote site url (web url) specified in the site setup | local info dialog, or do not have it fully qualified with http://
ie. ../js/file.js works fine without a remote web url but /js/file.js does not show the related file in the bar unless a remote url is defined.
Hope that helps anyone else that encounters the same issue!

I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.Please help me for that.

I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.Please help me for that.
1.)If i am using the continuous output mode.and the size of generated data is less than 32 MB.If i want to preload the memory,what should i do?I want that first of all i load all my data to onboard memory & then i want to make start the transfer between 6534 & peripheral.Is it possible?As per me it should be.Plz tell me how should i do this?I think that in normal procedure the transfer between 6534-peripheral & outputting data from pc buffer to onboard memory works parallely.But i don't want this.Is it poss
ible?
(2).Similarly in finite input operation(pattern I/O) is it possible to preload the memory and then i read it?Because i think that the PC memory will be loaded automatically when 6534 acquires the data and then when we use DIO read vi the pc buffer data will be transferred to application buffer.If this is true,i do not want this.Is it possible?
(3) One more question is there if i am using normal operation onboard memory will be used bydefault right?Now if i want to use DMA and if i have data of 512 bytes to acquire.How will it work and how should i do it?Please tell me the sequence of operations.As per my knowledge in normal DMA operation we have 32 Bytes FIFO is there so after acquisition of 32 bytes only i can read it.How it will known to me that 32 bytes acquisition is complete?Next,If i want to acquire each byte separately using DMA interrupts what should i do?Provide me the name of sourse from which i can get details about onboard memory & DMA process of 6534 specifically
(4).In 6534 pattern Input mode,if i want to but only 10 bits of data.and i don't want to waste any data line what should i do?

Hi Vishal,
I'll try to answer your questions as best I can.
1) It is definitely possible to preload data to the 32MB memory (per group) and start the acquisition after you have preloaded the memory. There are example programs on ni.com/support under Example Code for pattern generation and the 6534 that demonstrate which functions to use for this. Also, if your PC memory buffer is less than 32MB, it will automatically be loaded to the card. If you are in continuous mode however, you can choose to loop using the on-board memory or you can constantly be reading the PC memory buffer as you update it with your application environment.
2) Yes, your data will automatically be loaded into the card's onboard memory. It will however be transferred as quickly as possible to the DMA FIFO on the card and then transferred to the PC memory buffer through DMA. It is not going to wait until the whole onboard memory is filled before it transfers. It will transfer throughout the acquisition process.
3) Vishal, searching the example programs will give you many of the details of programming this type of application. I don't know you application software so I can't give you the exact functions but it is easiest to look at the examples on the net (or the shipping examples with your software). Now if you are acquiring 512 bytes of data, you will start to fill your onboard memory and at the same time, data will be sent to the DMA FIFO. When the FIFO is ready to send data to the PC memory buffer, it will (the exact algorithm is dependent on many things regarding how large the DMA packet is etc.).
4) If I understand you correctly, you want to know if you waste the other 6 bits if you only need to acquire on 10 lines. The answer to this is Yes. Although you are only acquiring 10 bits, it is acquired as a complete word (16bits) and packed and sent using DMA. You application software (NI-DAQ driver) will filter out the last 6 bits of non-data.
Hope that answers your questions. Once again, the example code on the NI site is a great place to start this type of project. Have a good day.

Question / problems with the Toshiba TV 40TL938 (40TL938F)

Hi everybody,
I bought the Toshiba TV 40TL938 french version ( 40TL938F ), in an online store.
I have a few question / problem, and i hope you could help me.
- when i play MKV vido files via USB, integrated subtitles works well but for me they are too small, too thin and too white. Can i make them biger, larger and with a black shadow around it ? if yes, how could i do this ?
- when i play MKV vido files via DLNA (with XBMC), there is no subtitles anymore. Whose fault is it ? my TV ? XBMC ? do you how i can fix this ?
- does anybody know if DTS will be supported sooner or later on 2012 toshiba TV models such as my 40TL938
Thank you very much by advance for your help !

Hi !
Thank you for your answer,
I saw this but there is no way to change the subtitle setting.
In "subtitle type" the only thing i can do is to swich from "normal" to "deaf and hearing impaired" ("sourd et malentendant" in french).
So i guess i will have to get used to it
Anyway, thank you for your help !

DTS is an audio format, such as AC3 or mp4. This TV doesn't support DTS, so when i play movie (such as MKV file) with audio in DTS, there is no sound (but the video is ok).
