[SOLVED] pacman -Sy failing with Invalid URL Scheme

I'm getting a comparable pair of lines for each combination of database (core, extra, etc.) and mirror (rankmirrors-generated mirrorlist):
error: url 'http://mirror.rit.edu/archlinux/core/os … .db.tar.gz' is invalid
debug: returning error 43 from download_internal : Invalid URL scheme
Yesterday I did pacman -Sy followed by pacman -Qu then pacman -Su all successfully.
Any thoughts/help?
UPDATE: re-installing pacman's dependencies learned via "pacman -Qi pacman" fixed the problem.

Comment out that mirror and try the next one.

What is this gnutils? I tried to set up gnome-utils, but that did not help. The same error also appears on my second comnputer.

I just upgraded it from KDE itself via konsole. The only bad effect I experienced was that the quick launch icons next to the K - menu icon disappeared. I already had upgraded kde to 3.4 and the latest upgrade was to 4.3.1 and did not follow wiki guidelines - except on the other computer. On that the icons stayed - just as described in the wiki.
But about the problem itself: it seems odd to me that all the different repos that are hosting current are not in sync. Arch original repo is a bit slower for me than ftp.nluug.nl.

I commented all repositories, except for core, extra and community and ran `pacman -Syu` which worked fine. I uncommented the other respositories and ran `pacman Syu` again. Everything worked fine again. Good.

Discoverer Desktop Connections Fails With Invalid Username/Pass in r12

Hi all;
I have problem. I can login Discoverer Administrator from my localmachine and i can see what ppl did it there.. But when i try to login Discoverer Desktop from my localmachine its gives me Invalid Username/Pass. error.
I even cant login my system from browser :
http://xx.com:7778/discoverer/plus << pages comes and i fill in the blanks area like:
Connect to : Oracle Application
Username: sysadmin
pass: ***
Database: VIS
I found some document from forums. Whihc is :
Discoverer Is Unable to Connect to Oracle Applications database: invalid username/password Doc ID: Note:467919.1
Discoverer 10g (10.1.2) Connectons To Oracle E-Business Suite 12 Fails With 'Invalid Username/Password' Doc ID: Note:443661.1
But before i apply those patch i want to take advice from you. Coz i can login Discoverer Administrator and can use it but cant login Discoverer Desktop...its kind of wierd... i already checked what i have done in installtion and its all seems correct.
Any idea;
Regards
Helios

Discoverer supports two kinds of connections - database schema connections and apps connections. For Disco Admin, you login using a database schema, which, as you stated, works. For Disco User you login using an Apps user account (for which there is a no equivalent database scherma). To enable such a connection, you need to check the "oracle applications user" check box on the 10g Disco login screen. Also, under Tools --> Options, in the Connection tab, make sure that "connect to both standard and applications EULs" radio button is selected.

Cube failed with invalid character stics

Hi,
My cube failed with invalid charactersticts....data flow is source sytem to ODS and then cube.
loading in to ODS and activation is also successful . I would like to know the reason why ODS loading & activation is not failed with above said message and why cube is failed...
Thanks in advance.....CK

Hi,
BW accepts just capital letters and certain characters. The permitted characters list can be seen via transaction RSKC.
There are several ways to solve this problem:
1)     Removing erroneous character from R/3 (for example required vendor number that need to be changed can be found from PSA from line shown in error message)
2)     Changing or removing character in update rules (need to done by ABAP)
3)     Putting character to BW permitted characters, if character is really needed in BW
4)     If the bad character only happens once then it can be directly change/removed by editing the PSA
5)     Put ALL_CAPITAL in permitted characters. Needs to be tested first!
Editing and updating from PSA, first ensure that the load has been loaded in PSA, then delete the request from the data target, edit PSA by double clicking the field you wish to change and save. Do not mark the line and press change this will result in incorrect data. After you have corrected the PSA, right click on the not yet loaded PSA and choose u201Cstart immediately.u201D
Hope it will help you.

Backup Fails with Invalid RECID Error

Hi All,
Please help me to understand Caution -section

Backup Fails with Invalid RECID Error: Solution 2
This solution is more difficult than solution 1:
To create the control file with SQL*Plus:
   1. Connect to the target database with SQL*Plus. For example, enter:
      % sqlplus 'SYS/oracle@trgt AS SYSDBA'
   2. Mount the database if it is not already mounted:
      SQL> ALTER DATABASE MOUNT;
   3. Back up the control file to a trace file:
      SQL> ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;
   4. Edit the trace file as necessary. The relevant section of the trace file looks something like the following:
      # The following commands will create a new control file and use it
      # to open the database.
      # Data used by the recovery manager will be lost. Additional logs may

then two copies of an archived redo log for a given log sequence number may

For example, one log may have been created on the original host and the other on the new host.
If you accidentally confuse the logs during a media recovery,
then the database will be corrupted but Oracle and RMAN cannot detect the problem.

If you accidentally confuse the logs during a media recovery,
then the database will be corrupted but Oracle and RMAN cannot detect the problem.As per my understanding it says. If you don't open database with RESETLOGS option then there may be archived logs with log sequence number which is already archived on the source host. This may happen due to difference in RECIDs. Now when the database needs media recovery for this particular log sequence, you may provide any of them. So in this case, RMAN and Oracle will not be able to differentiate the two files and can accept any of the archived log files during recovery. Since the contents of two archived logs are different, because they are generated at different times and they contains different transactions. So, internally it corrupts your database.

Look like bug 4477774. A possible workaround, somewhat unsafe, is to set UTL_FILE_PATH to '*', which will require a server restart. You then specifiy the path with unix style '/' rather than dos style '\'. You may also be able to use a path with unix style '/' rather than '*', although the bug description does not make this clear.

Create a Homescreen Symbol with custom URL Scheme

Hi People,
I hope you can help me.
As the subject said I want to create a Home-screen-Symbol with a URL Scheme. Meaning a Link that directs me to a Note in Evernote.
If I Enter the URL in Safari it takes me there, that works perfect. Now I want to use the "Add to Home-screen" Function of Safari to create a Symbol that takes me to that Note also.
But there is also my problem: Safari immediately opens the App and I can't use the Function and if I get back to safari the tab with the URL is already cleaned up.
Does someone know a trick where I can create such a symbol or edit the URL of an existing Symbol?
First of all: Jailbreaking is no Option here.

Does it work without iWeb?
As in : a webpage with code you typed yourself.
If so, then display that page in an <iframe>. Or paste the code in a HTML snippet.
My impression is, that iWeb only allow http:// URLs.
And do you really want to install an app on someone's iPad just by clicking the link?
Why not provide a link to the app in the App Store?

MBAM 2.5 Reports Fail with "Invalid object name 'v_GS_MBAM_POLICY'."

Utilizing the SSRS Reports for MBAM 2.5 Integrated into Configuration Manager 2012 R2 Cu3, when I run the reports it states that the view
'v_GS_MBAM_POLICY' does not exist.
The complexing thing though is that there are computers that are reporting the HINV Class called 'Win32Reg_MBAMPolicy' So I would think this view would have been created.
Does anyone know the process by which the view gets generated since my HINV is reporting back the information, yet the view has not been created in the DB yet... It makes no sense.
The error is:

We ran into this error as well. Turns out that MBAM-provided reports to SCCM 2012 fail with an error unless the Win32Reg_MBAMPolicy class is added to SCCM, which also updates the SCCM SQL with required Views, including "v_GS_MBAM_POLICY".
The solution that we finally came up with was to import an updated MOF file to include the BitLocker Policy (Win32Reg_MBAMPolicy) class into the "Hardware Inventory" section of the Default Client Policy. Once the import is complete SQL also gets
the appropriate view created.
The instructions on how to create and import the MOF file can be found in the link below.

Upgrade WebDB 2.2 to Portal Fails with Invalid Sys password

I am upgrading from WebDB 2.2.0.0.5 all the way to the latest 3.0.9xx. My database is 8172. I am at the point where you run the 306 upgrade script. It makes it through renaming all the webdb objects to UPG_<OLD_NAME> but then fails with an invalid sys password error when starting winstall. The sys password is not invalid and the script even tests that it is valid before even starting. So, I am not sure what the problem is. I have tried this about a dozen times different ways and still the same error:

We spend almost 6 months (on and off) to get a successful migration from webdb. After countless discussions with Oracle, because we though we where doing something wrong, Oracle advised us that forms do not migrate "well" and any migrated forms do not display as portals. We are not upgrading 300 components by hand. I do not know if this affects you like it did us but I thought you would like to know.

[Solved] Pacman preparation failed

I'm trying a new installation from a USB key and it fails on the Package Selection phase. The error message I get on tty7 is:
Execute(): worker_package_list exit state was 1
More info:
- arch is x86_64
- I'm installing from a USB stick on a laptop that has been running x32 arch for at least a year (it's a core2 cpu)
- I've checked and double-checked the md5sum of the iso and the image on the stick
- I'm using a core iso - no network access
- I select the local core repo when running aif
- I can see all the packages in /repo/core/x86_64/{core,any}
- I've read the aif bash scripts but so far I've been unable to see what the problem might be
I've read all I've found about the subject (there are many threads on this problem), but nothing that describes my exact situation; nothing has helped me. If somebody has any pointers, I'll be grateful!
-- buo
P.S: I've solved this problem; here's the solution in case anyone else encounters something similar. My drive was already partitioned and formatted, so I was telling aif to leave it alone. After I allowed it to reformat the root partition, the problem went away.

OracleXMLQuery fails with invalid UTF-8 character

All -
While using OracleXMLQuery API to pull the data back as a DOM. The internal parser has a fatal error with invalid UTF-8 data stored in the XML data.
Is it possible to use the setXSLT() method to transform the data before the DOM is attempted to be built. Or some other method within the OracleXMLQuery API to alter the invalid XML data before an attempt is made to parse it?
Note: The database will have non-UTF-8 data; Presently beyond our control.

Hi,
Are the files from the Java-CD fully readable and fully copied, for instance the java-dumpfile ?
Ensure JVM settings of note # 716604 area applied. Also, is connect possible to database by 'configtool' or does it throw an error ?

IAppHostElement::GetElementByName allways fails with invalid index

Hello!
In a c++ application I want to configure the IIS by using the Interfaces declared in ahadmin.h.
When I call the function GetElementByName of the Interface IAppHostElemnt it allways Fails with ERROR_INVALID_INDEX (0x80070585). Here a short example without error handling:
BSTR bstrSites = SysAllocString( L"system.applicationHost/sites" );
BSTR bstrConfigCommitPath = SysAllocString( L"MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST" );
BSTR bstrDefSite = SysAllocString (L"Default Web Site");
IAppHostWritableAdminManager *pMgr = NULL;
HRESULT hr = CoCreateInstance( __uuidof(AppHostWritableAdminManager), NULL,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, __uuidof(IAppHostWritableAdminManager), (void**) &pMgr);
IAppHostElement *pElem;
hr = pMgr->GetAdminSection(bstrSites, bstrConfigCommitPath, &pElem);
IAppHostElement *pDefSite;
hr = pElem->GetElementByName (bstrDefSite, &pDefSite);
-> hr == 0x80070858 !!!
When I get the collection with pElem->get_Collection (), I can query it for "Default Web Site". And it is the same with apps under a web site.
What's the problem with GetElementByName ()?
Thanks Frank

GetElementByName probably searches within the collection of child elements, which can be obtained by
get_ChildElements, not by
get_Collection.

Proceed with installation? [Y/n] n
How can I investigate what's the source of the problem? Is there a way to get pacman to tell me which package it is that is trying to pull in openntpd? (Or does anybody know right away how to resolve this issue?)
Oh, by the way: "pacman -Sii openntpd" says
Required By : networkmanager-dispatcher-openntpd
but I don't use networkmanager.

Ha, how stupid of me...
I thought openntpd was being pulled in, but it was already installed (by me, apparently) although I've never used it. Removing it by hand before upgrading resolved the problem. Thanks!

[SOLVED] pacman -Sy failing with Invalid URL Scheme
