Some guidelines for Win2K installation

When Installing on a clean machine these are the guide lines you may have to
follow to install for Win2k
1. Make sure your file system is NTFS
2. Do not use DHCP, instead use Static IP And also specify DNS entry for
the TCP/IP
3. Define Primary DNS suffix ( Control Panel -> System -> Network
Identification -> Properties -> More)
Incase If your system has previous versions them do clean ups as follows
run regedit -
1. goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software and delete iPlanet folder
2. goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services and
delete the entries for : adminXXX-serv,iAS60,slapd4.1,slapd-servername.
run regedt32 -
1. goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Enum/Root
and changed the permission for key LEGACY_SLAPD-xxx from
security, and delete it, check in other controlSet also,
including currentControlSet.
After that delete the iplanet home directory, and clean up any PATH
settings created by previous installation
Most of these notes I got from this news group, If any one has more, or any
changes feel free to update this list.
Also I suggest iplanet tech groups to include this lines into readme file,
so we don't need to search on net hours
to find out the exact problem
thnx/Rgds

This is actually a answer not a question regarding the issues related to iAS installation/uninstallation on Windows-2000 platform. All the entries are correct perfectly.
Just one addition:
To make sure that "Primary DNS Suffix" is added to the windows registry just run regedit and click on the :My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SYSTEM\ControlSet001\ Services\Tcpip\Parameters key, you will see the Domain key value set to your domainname, otherwise enter the domain name into this key value, and than reboot the m/c, and than reinstall the iAS.

Is there some order for Updates Installation?

Hello all!
I have a farm of SharePoint 2010.
I've installed some Language Pack.
Now I need to deploy some CU.
Is there some need to install update for Language Pack at the end of CU installation or not?
Thanks a lot!

CUs include Language Pack content (that's why they're so large). So with respect to LPs, there is no additional action you need to perform when installing or after installing a CU.

Guidelines for importing graphics from Photoshop

Can anyone provide some guidelines for laying out a DVD menu design in Photoshop to be brought into DVD SP? What physical dimensions? What file format? Anything else I should know?
Thanks.

Hi
Sorry if it sounds like RTFM, but a good starting point is reading the Preparing Menu Sources topic in the DVDSP User Manual.
Basically you can use PSD files and/or TIFFs, PNGs. Avoid JPG because you must be very careful with compression level. If you work with PSDs, remember rasterizing effects before importing in DVDSP.
About the file dimension in pixels, this info is taken from the manual:
A good way to select the right dimension is starting a new PS file and use the video presets. You'll get a blank file guith secutiry zones guides, and the correct dimension and pixel aspect ratio to work with during menu design.
Hope that helps !

Some steps for configuring Network are skipped in installation Solaris 10

Hi everybody !!!
I'm a newbie in Solaris 10. I had some problems in installation Solaris 10:
I downloaded installation packet for x64/x86 (DVD) on site Sun.I want to install Solaris 10 on my PC AMD 2500+.I connect to internet through a LAN.
1)In process installation, some steps for configuring Network ( from 5 to 15 in Solaris 10 installation guide) were skipped automatically. It has been directly moved to 16-th step(setup Time and region). Then i tried to finish installing it. But in working with it, i recognized that Network card had been not found( i use NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter). I typed some command in console shell :
$netstat -in
loo...........
and received only one row like above.
i have tried some times , but not succeeded
2)Port USB is also not working
Please help me. Thanks a lot !!!

hi Vantuan,
guess I just posted reply to your other post...
also check Sun hardware compatibility list for your network card here:

Looking for some creative guidelines for book formatting

I am formatting a book, my first one, and am about to start refining the overall formatting to make it look beautiful. I'm running into a bit of a creative block, and am looking for some basic guidelines for book formatting. I'm wondering about fonts, how many to use, ideas about heading heiarchy's, fonts for tables relative to the rest of my text, etc. I have everthing formatted, but it just looks ackward and ugly because I don't have a sensitivity to the standards.
Does anyone know of a resource where I could find some guidance on this?

Upgrading from K9A2 to AM3: What board for Win2k?

I know that anything having to do with Digital Rights Management won't work with Win2k, but I was wondering which AM3 socket board would offer "pretty good" support for Win2k in terms of drivers.
In some instances there's simply no Win2k driver download available, and I don't know if the installer immediately barfs on Win2k systems, or if you could unpack drivers individually so that ALMOST everything would work.
I'm using Windows 2000 Server to access all four cores ...
Note: I'm not a gamer and not heavy into multi-media stuff, so more basic audio/video operation would be OK.

Quote from: Fredrik on 10-March-11, 23:22:11
Isn't it better to trim your current system for what W2000 likes best, office work and networking maybe, and have a separate system for media handling, gaming and such? I imagine this would amount to less money and work and difficulties.
My problem at the moment is just locating any AM3 mainboard with ANY chipset drivers for Win2k.
I hate activation / "phoning home" to M$, so I've avoided upgrading to XP.
I know that XP Pro would give me support for the cores I have and most any chipset. It looks like I could go that route pretty cheaply, but I don't know how ugly it would be to put a non-server OS over top of a server installation, even though I'm just using Win2k Server as a fast workstation.
I've also considered crossing over to some flavor of Linux and running windows apps under WINE (whatever). I've had very modest Linux experience years ago, and don't know how much of a nightmare that change would be.
I like the idea of having a 64-bit OS some day, but I've always been afraid that any newer version of Windows would be so bloated compared to the older ones that any added performance gains would be more than offset by the snails pace of the OS / "new and improved" apps ...
I've loved Win2k because it was the first version of the OS where USB support REALLY worked, and the kernel was relatively light and fast compared to what followed.
Thinking about getting everything to work all over again on a new platform makes me CRINGE, and I've been at this for decades!

Sizing Guideline for Sourcing 7.0

Hello,
I have read the Sizing Guideline for Sourcing 7.0 in the Installation Guide. For a small installation (less than 50 concurrent users) SAP is recommending the following:
App Server - Quad Core Processor, 16 GB
DB Server - Quad Core Processor, 16 GB
Having done WAS JAVA sizing for quite sometime, I feel this is on a very higher side. In our implementation we will have max 10 concurrent users. So I feel the following should be good enough
App + DB Server - Dual Core Processor, 8 GB
As per my exp, 1core and 4GB will be for OS and DB, remaining 1core and 4 GB for 1 CE Server Node.
I request all the experienced people please suggest if this will work. If not please share some rational so that I can convince the customer rationally without saying thats minimum recommendation from SAP
Regards,
Jai

Jai,
Optimizer can be on same server as of contract generation, CG use very little memory as its only service used to created document for CLM. but it should be on different server other than E-Sourcing server
E-Sourcing can work without optimizer also, Its is prefered where there are complex bid responses or large no of response are there.

SOS: win2k installation hangs

Hi everyone, I need help really bad. I'm currently using a Neo2 (6728) with 2 80GB serial ata attached to sata1 and 2 and an IDE cdrom attached as a slave to IDE2. During the installation of win2k, I pressed F6 to install the ICH5R drivers for sata1 and sata2. After the loading of the drivers and some other stuff, the installation always hangs on the blue installation screen and the status showing "setup is now starting windows 2000". Even if i tried the installation without loading the ICH5R drivers, the same thing happens....
Have anyone else had any success installing win2k with similar setup? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ?(

---Before reading further, try installing Windows with nothing but the Graphics card and boot Hard Drive installed ---
I had exactly the same problem on an 865PE Neo 2 board with a 2.4C P4.
It is strange but it seems to be caused by a heat problem.
Even though your temps may look fine, your CPU can still be overheating but because the P4 slows itself down to cool itself when it overheats, you may never notice.
First, remove your heatsink from the CPU.
If there is a thermal pad on the heatsink, remove it. Make sure all of it is removed. There may be a thin film the same colour as the heatsink.
Clean the heatsink of any remaining thermal pad with a moist scratchy sponge dipped in soappy water (make sure you are nowhere near your PC to avoid any water getting inside). Be careful not to get any liquid into the vents of the HS. Dry the heatsink.
Clean the CPU with a cotton bud (use no water).
Put good thermal grease on the CPU. Don't use too much but make sure you cover the entire surface of the CPU.
Replace the Heatsink.
This worked for me.

Best Practises and Guidelines for SharePoint 2013 Development

Currently We are using SharePoint 2010 and doing a lot of enhancement and customization in the portal.
we are planning to migrate SharePoint 2013 after 6-9 months.
I want to know what are the best practices and guidelines for development in SharePoint 2010 keeping one thing in mind that customization should be compatible or can easily migrate to SharePoint 2013 so that re-engineering effort would be as minimum
as possible.
We have every possible piece of customization in SharePoint 2010 portal like web part, event receivers, workflows, master page, page layout, custom search etc.
Please do the needful.

Best practices don't really apply here. They are generally rules of thumb that you can apply without thinking too much and be pretty much right. Development is by it's nature too varied to allow that sort of best practice guidance.
Having said that the main thing you should be concerned with around the choice of development approach in 2013 is the intended future of your client and the application. If they are making a move to the cloud you should be concentrating on the app model
and rapidly phasing out farm solutions. If they are considering it then you can still consider using the more old-school options of farm solutions and sandboxed solutions. If they can't go to the cloud because of data security etc. then you are more or less
free to use what you like.
Also, try to move to client side processing wherever possible. MS are only going to make server side work less pleasant in future.
Beyond that, get to some conferences and start chewing through some of the blogs on the topic.

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.

ERROR: The cabinet file 'Sql.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used

As the title indicates, I'm having this error during installation. It occurs when I try to install
the "Management Studio" part of the program. I've tried a bunch of things like
copying to hard drive and installing, but to no avail. To isolate the problem, i've even tried removing Reporting services, since at the time of failure it seems to be trying to install/configure the Microsoft.Reporting Services dll.
Additionally, I have SQL Express installed (installed it separately, not as part of the SQL 2005 DVD), VS 2005, .NET Framework 2.0, SQL Management Studio Express CTP. Could the Management Studio Express be causing a problem?
Please note:
Although the error is about missing / corrupt Sql.cab, I have searched the entire dvd for the said file, but there is no file called Sql.cab on the dvd. Am I missing something?
Any solution would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Reading though the many Google hits going way back AD-2000/AD-2006/AD-2011/AD-2014 for various installs including SQLserver_2008/2012 etc
I noted that in the main there were x2 common themes.
1. Problem with corruption the original download.
--- Although I had not run the download checksum
--- I had previously just installed SQLServer2014_Developer successfully, so at the minute, I was confident downloads were ok.
--- Many hits mentioned this 'Sql.cab' file and 90% of the install had been successfull -
--- I figured the chances of us all having corruption of this one files were agaianst the odds and
---   probably re-downloading it would not fix this - but I kicked a re-download off anyhow .
While it was running ...
2. Network issue when installing - some of the hits asked if could be related to Virtual drives.
--- This struck a chord
--- I had downloaded the SQLServer2014 .iso to my host PC and then copied it onto one OneDrive so I could access it within the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
--- From within the VirtualBox_Windows_10 I had then used SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe to mount the OneDrive SQLServer2014 .iso and then autorun the install.
What worked for me ...
--- I decided to
--- 1. Copy the same SQLServer2014 .iso that had failed to install x2 from OneDrive to the c:\ root of the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
--- 2. Remount the same SQLServer2014 .iso from c:\ again using SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe.
--- 3. Re-run the SQLServer2014 install using the repair mode.
This time the [Maintenance] [Repair] install completed with all elements showing installed successfully.
Hope this helps

Error: the cabinet file required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used.

Hi, ive recently just built a brand new computer and purchased windows 7 64 bit. the system runs fine except for the fact that i cannot install any games (these include command and conquer 4, red alert 3 and sims 3. i go to install and partway through it stops with a message saying:
"the cabinet file 'name.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. this could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD ROM, or a problem with this package."
At first i suspectd a faulty cd rom drive, but the same thing happend wen i tried it with another drive. i know the disks are fine because theyr new. iv searced online and tried things such as disabling the antivirus, going into command prompt and deleting the .....\SQMClient\DisabledSessions as administrator and anything else that was recommended, but it still cant seem to like cabinet files (btw when the installation stops it doesnt always stop on the same .cab as a previous attempt, sometimes it gets further through the installation than others). they install fine on other computes with windows 7 64bit.
Any help is appreciated! Thanx

Hi Dazattack, I suggest you check the following KB article first:

Note: Though it's for Office, some steps in the article can still be used in such scenario.
Meanwhile, can you install other applications that downloaded from the Internet ?

Guidelines for setting Application Module Pool Size Parameters?

Are there guidelines for setting the application module pool size parameters, such as initial pool size, maximum pool size, etc., based on the expected number of users or other factors? I've read the developer guide sections (ch 28-29), but still don't have a good feel for how to correctly set the optimal values for the pool configuration parameters? Even more importanty, how do I monitor the pool's efficiency during runtime to determine if the pooling parameters are configured correctly?
This will be critical to performance and scalability, so I'm looking for a way to get some visibility into how the pooling is working during production operation to assess whether there are bottlenecks/constraints/ineffeciencies?
Note I am using Tomcat as the java runtime container; ADF BC / JSF jdev 10.1.3.1
Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!

KUBA - were you able to resolve these issues and if so are there any lessons learned you can share?
I'm hoping someone from the ADF team can answer our original question including guidelines for setting pool parameters and how to monitor the pool's performance while running in production.
thanks

Guidelines for deciding directory structure for Swing Application

Hi,
We are developing a Swing Application for our organization. We want to organize the code and resources/icons/properties files in correct manner.
We have guidelines for arranging the code for web application. Is there any such guidelines available for desktop application as well? What is the preferred location for keeping the icons and properties files?
Regards,
Manu

Thanks Maran.
I have already checked many installation guides before posting here. All of them mention about creating folders like /admin or /oradata on various mount points but none of the naming conventions really indicate whether it is a 8i database or a 10g database.
This is required when you are having multiple Oracle installations under /opt and databases are running from different mount points.
