[SOLVED] Update modules

Hi
Ive just recently install my first arch, and im hooked. Now im trying to get my usb sound card to work, but i have come over a very annoying problem. I cant figure out how to update my modules.
This guy used "update-modules", but i cant seem to find what ever that is.
Any one?

The program changed since whatever post you are reading. Run
sudo depmod -a
and reboot
That should take care of it.

How to execute Update Module FM after final commit work for a T-code.

Hello Folks,
I have a bit complex issue with my current object.
We have modified MM41/MM42 transactions and added a subscreen to fulfill the requirement.
We have designed the subscreen and embedded the same to MM41/MM42 through SPRO configuration.
Now for update business logic,i am trying to execute one Function module(Update Module) in update Task...so that it will be executed once after the final commit work will be done for MM41/MM42.
But its not executing.
To fulfill my requirement i need to execute the FM only after Final Commit work for MM41/MM42.
Please suggest in this regard.
Even i can see few BADI's which are triggering through MM01/MM02 but not through MM41/MM42.
BADI_ARTICLE_REF_RT
BADI_MATERIAL_CHECK
BADI_MAT_F_SPEC_SEL
Code with which i am trying is given below.
After PAI event of the subscreen---
1:        MODULE USER_COMMAND_9001.
2:       MODULE user_command_9001 INPUT.
                    PERFORM sub_save_mara ON COMMIT.
          ENDMODULE.
3:       FORM sub_save_mara.
                     CALL FUNCTION 'ZMMUPDATE_MARA_APPEND_STRUCT' "IN UPDATE TASK
                                    EXPORTING
                                             materialno = gv_matnr
                                             appendmara = ty_zzmara.
         ENDFORM.                    "sub_save_mara
4:                FUNCTION zmmupdate_mara_append_struct.
                  ""Update Function Module:
                   ""Local Interface:
                  *" IMPORTING
               *"     VALUE(MATERIALNO) TYPE MATNR
               *"     VALUE(APPENDMARA) TYPE ZZMARA
Data Declaration for Local use
DATA : w_mara TYPE mara.
Selecting the latest values for the material.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM mara INTO w_mara WHERE matnr = materialno.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
Move the ZZMARA values to structure MARA
    MOVE-CORRESPONDING appendmara TO w_mara.
Update the values in table MARA.
    MODIFY mara FROM w_mara.
ENDIF.
ENDFUNCTION.
Kindly suggest.Thanks in advance.

Hi..
The code given by me will work fine provided the Final commit should happen.
Because to execute FM with update task,final commit work should happen which is mandatory and after that it will call the update task.
In my case final commit work was not happeneing because..SAP standard program was not able to detect wether there is any change in my sub-screen or not as the standard program & my custom program,subscreens are different.
As it was not able to detect the change,so final commit was not happening and hence update task also.
To provide the reference of change in my subscreen to standard program ,i set a flag as per the change in the subscreen
And exported the same to memory.
Then Implemented one enhacement spot in MATERIAL_CHANGE_CHECK_RETAIL Fm where i have Imported the flag value.
Based on my custom flag value,i have set one standard flag FLG_AENDERUNG_GES which tells SAP standard program for MM42 wether any change has happened or not.
The above solved my purpose.

When I saw this, I decided to save the diffrent files that were conflicting, copy them in a zip file and run the following command
sudo pacman -Syuf
After a reboot, the language turned from French to English. Now that the system is in english there are some french characters that don't display correctly. But when I went on the ArchLinux website, I saw that we had to manually delete the files before updating (that's when I felt stupid a little bit..).
But now that this is done, there may be other things buggy . First of all, I want to fix the language issue (it may be has to do with the fact that archlinux moved from initscript to systemd?). Then if anyone has any idea about what could have been messed up, let me know (and if you have a fix, I'd love to be whistled about that ).

I think there's nothing new for me in what Tom posted. I already had the configuration set up in /etc/locale.conf.
LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8
LC_TIME=fr_CA.UTF-8
However I noticed that when i shutdown my pc, some daemons fail to stop/execute themselves:
- Crond [FAIL]
- NetworkManger [FAIL]
- SIGTERM to process [FAIL]
- SIGKILL to process [FAIL]

This option should be used with care, ideally not at all.
You just forced 80 updates at once. Don't do that. The fontconfig update has it's own news post: News: Fontconfig 2.10.1 update - manual intervention required.
You should have read that.
Hopefully Tom's post will help you fix your language problem. In the future, don't force anything unless you're explicitly told to via news post.
I realize I shouldn't have done this, but it's by making errors you learn, isn't it? Now, Tom's post doesn't look useful since it seems it doesn't differ from my own configuration.
There's actually a person who had a similar problem (I think) as we can see in Tom's post comments since he has this too:
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
But his system is configured with systemd when my configuration is with initscripts... So the problem isn't solved yet!

About all those Windows 7 Update Modules (for X120e)

Hi All,
My X120e built-in Lenovo update program recommends me to download many of those "Windows 7 Update Modules", what are they? There are like 6 that it recommends (and 12 as listed as X120e compatible on this page: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-76363, all with the same name but with different dates and numbers. Should I download them all? If yes then in what order? Or simultanuously?
Thanks.
Moderator edit: Fixed link.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Run Windows Update first, then see if System Update still offers them.

Call on update module without addition "in update task"

Hi, folks!
Could anyone please explain the behaviour of an update module that is called without addition "in update task" with regards to transactionality and locking? Where is the processing carried out - in the dialog step, I guess? Does a COMMIT WORK AND WAIT make any sense in this context? Will any locks be removed in this way?
Thank you very much in advance!
Cheers,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Please find the below mentioned piece of code :
call function 'Z_ZE0EDISTAT_UPDATE' in update task
       EXPORTING
            w_ZE0EDISTAT          = struct_ZE0EDISTAT
       EXCEPTIONS
            NO_UPDATE            = 01.
*&   Update Database with changes.
COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.
In this case whatever changes which will be done to the table 'ZE0EDISTAT' inside the FM 'Z_ZE0EDISTAT_UPDATE' will ONLY be reflected in the database table ZE0EDISTAT' when COMMIT WORK and WAIT statement is encountered. Else updates won't be visible. Hope it will clear some doubt of yours.
Cheers

COMMIT WORK: Timing of DB commit and update modules

Hi all,
Does anyone know categorically the order of starting the asynchronous update modules (CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK) and the database commit, when a COMMIT WORK is done?
Does COMMIT WORK:
- Do PERFORM ... ON COMMIT
- Start asynchronous update processing
- Do database commit
Or does it:
- Do PERFORM ... ON COMMIT
- Do database commit
- Start asynchronous update processing
My reason for asking is some code (not written by me!) that essentially raises CREATED workflow events in the update task, but performs the corresponding database inserts in the current work process.
It looks like we are getting the situation that sometimes the table entries do not exist when the update modules exist, which in turn suggests to me that perhaps the asynchronous update modules are started just before the database commit that is done when a COMMIT WORK statement is executed.
Cheers,
Scott

Christian,
Before the update module execution. Here's some code to highlight and let's assume it runs in a dialog process. And to everyone else, yes, I know this is a poor way to implement updates!
INSERT INTO zmyobject VALUES lv_myobject.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE_IN_UPD_TASK'
IN UPDATE TASK
EXPORTING
 objtype = 'ZMYOBJECT'
 objkey = lv_myobject-key
 event = 'CREATED'.
COMMIT WORK.
So I meant to ask the question of whether we could guarantee that the new record in table ZMYOBJECT would be committed to the database before the update module was executed. It really is a theoretical question though it did not begin as one.
I do not believe the answer to this problem can be determined by debugging, because given that these two steps occur so close in time to one another, by the time the update module appeared in the debugger, it would be unrealistic to expect that the DB insert performed in the dialog process had not been committed yet.
I might be wrong, but I really don't think you're going to find ABAP logic embedded in SAPMSSY0 or elsewhere that invokes the update modules or performs a DB commit. Rather, it is my suspicion that the COMMIT WORK statement works like this:
- Drop into the kernel
- Does a callback to SAPMSSY0 to execute form %_BEFORE_COMMIT to raise a static OO event
- Does a callback to SAPMSSY0 to execute form %_COMMIT and thereby process any PERFORM ... ON COMMIT
- Does a database commit
- Does a callback to SAPMSSY0 to execute form %_AFTER_COMMIT to raise another static OO event
Further, I believe that it is the database commit that now makes the queued CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK now visible in VBLOG to other processes.
Lastly, and this is of course wild speculation, I suspect that it is an update process running somewhere else that detects the new entries in VBLOG and grabs them for processing.
So, I'm kind of changing my position from earlier to state that I believe the COMMIT WORK statement does not directly trigger the update modules at all, rather it just does the database commit and this makes visible the pending update modules to the dispatcher / update work processes which probably grab the update LUW's on a first come first served basis.
At least, that is how I would design it :-).
Cheers,
Scott

Problem in FI Update Modules

Dear ALL,
         The problem we are facing is that during positing FI Documents through FV60, Some times documents don't post fully, their Update Modules give errors during V1 Updates this is due to some electric or linkage problem as i guess.
and also during check payment the check is generated but its corresponding document is not generated..
We have to run updates manully.
Why the whole process is not rolling back when their are inconsistance in process.
E.G
this is sm13 display for Check payment
1      BREAKDOWN_RELATION_INSERT       V1 NORMAL Init      2      POST_DOCUMENT                   V1 NORMAL Err
3      G_UPDATE_BSE_CLR                V1 NORMAL Init
4      G_FI_POSTING                    V1 NORMAL Init
We have use "COMMIT WORK" statement but this is still coming.
Acutally I can't debug this because this comes randomly, and we don't know when and why this error comes..

If you search OSS notes with the error messages as parameters, you may be able to find some help.

Unknown error while updating module use!

I restarted XE with "/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop /etc/init.d/oracle-xe start" and then see this error message in the terminal console. Every serveral minutes, the error "Unknown error while updating module use!" is echoed.
Any advice?

Look for the alert_xe.log file, maybe you'll find some additional information there if that message is related to your XE instance.

What are the essential cases where we must have use update module F.M.

Dear sap Friends ,
I want to update or insert bill no. in a ztable when creating bill through VF01 .
I have done it through insert sql query as well as by update module enabled functin module .
what are the essential cases where we must have to use update module enabled functin module and why we use IN UPDATE TASK .
mainly i want to know in which case i must have to use update module enabled functin module and not by insert or modify query used smply .
Thanks ,
Amit Ranjan .

Hi Amit,
I sincerly advice you to search SCN or any anywherelse as big theory is behind this
few related info.
If you are using more than one screen to collect the data to update a perticular table and corresponding underlying table Child table in that case , after every screen change an implicit data base commit takes place and you are still collecting the data from other screens , in such cases you use IN UPDATE TASK
Please go through SAP LUW

V1 and V2 Update Modules

Hi All
what are v1 update modules and v2update modules in SM13??
urgent..
reward for sure...
regards
dinesh

Hi,
Check this http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e5/de86f035cd11d3acb00000e83539c3/content.htm
The SAP update concept has two priorites for function modules which run in the update task: Start immediately (V1 function modules) and Start delayed (V2 function modules). If all V1 function modules have been successfully processed, the update program deletes all ENQUEUE locks specified by the transaction. This means that the V2 function modules cannot rely on the locks set.
CALL FUNCTION function IN UPDATE TASK
With this statement, the function module function is registered so that it can be executed by an update process on encountering the next ABAP/4 command COMMIT WORK. In this case (i.e. asynchronous processing), the dialog process does not wait until the function module has been executed. However, with COMMIT WORK AND WAIT (i.e. synchronous processing), the processing does not continue until the function module has finished. All function modules specified as "Update with immediate start" or "Immediate start, no restart" (in short V1) are executed together in one LUW. All function modules specified as "Update with delayed start (in short V2 are executed in a separate LUW. The type V2 is mainly used for less urgent database updates (e.g. of a statistical nature).

Lightroom for Mac - Not updating modules

Hello,
I was unaware that last Mac OS X update was blocking Apple Aperture I was happily using and installing instead Photo.

System Update Windows 7 Update Module KB2615763

System Update (5.02.0007) schlägt mir zur Installation folgendes Update vor: Windows 7 Update Module KB2615763.
Beim Versuch es zu installieren schlägt es fehl. Danach habe ich versuch es manuell zu installieren. Es erscheint das Fenster "Eigenständiges Windows Update Programm" und die Fehlermeldung "Das Update ist nicht für diesen Computer geeignet".
Finde ich sehr unschön. Wenn es nicht geeignet ist, warum wird es dann angezeigt? Könnte dieses Update das Problem beheben mit meiner externen USB 3 Platte, die nur an USB 2 Ports funktioniert?
Besten Dank für Eure Hilfe.

[Solved] Update broke some things

Okay, I just ran pacman -Syu and among the kernel and ndiswrapper updates some important stuff got broken.
1. When I try to boot up it gets to the file systems spits out a bunch of stuff and gives me this error
/etc/rc.sysinit line 271 5915 segmentation fault /bin/mount -o remount, rw
What do i have to do to that line to let it boot normally?
2. This isnt a fatal error, just an annoyance. but in that same file on line 350 it says: /usr/bin/kbd_mod no such file or directory.
Can I delete this line?
3. and finally once again, these updates broke the wireless. When I run netcfg2 mynetwork I get a wireless association failed error.
Any help on this?

Update module

Hi All,
While creating function module it is showing three options :
1. Normal function module
2. rfc-enabled module
3. update module.
Could you please explain me what is update module and what is the use of the same.
Thanks in advance,
