Starting point; besides Wiki and Forum.

Ok so I'm ready to jump head first into linux, ArchLinux will be my first distrubution. I consider myself knowledgeable when it comes to computers, but Linux will be somewhat challenging I admit. My main motivation for learning Linux, is I want to be able to buy a VPN and run my site off it, which means I have to be able to manage every aspect of my VPN from shell (I think that is the term).
So I was wondering if you guys could help me resource wise as to how I would learn Linux. First of all, is Linux also Unix?
If so, does this book look like a good resource? http://www.amazon.com/Sams-Teach-Yourse … 672328143/
I'm looking for a good solid resource on Linux in general. Usually when I learn anything, I grab a strong resource to start with (a book or a video), and then pick up the rest of my knowledge from forums/wiki's/internet/etc. So if you guys could help me with a strong reference, that would be great.
I already know a good chunk of Vim, if that helps (but not nearly enough, but I can pick that up just looking at documentation). I also use Mac OS X so I do use a good chunk of commands found in Linux (cd, ls, that's it)

It's not quite accurate to say linux is the same as unix, but knowledge of one tends to transfer pretty closely to another. If you're comfortable using a terminal running your mac you should have a decent start. I haven't seen that book you posted, but as an alternative O'Reilly books tend to be pretty good. I have Linux in a Nutshell which I flipped through quite a bit when I started out.
Another good resource is the linux documentation project
If a main motivation is to be able to run things remotely over the network I'd say priorities would be to become comfortable with bash (the default shell for most linux distros) and editing files from a cli text editor. Knowing terminal commands for your mac and vim are good starts for that.

Status of Wiki and Forum updates/migration/changes

Hey all,
I've spent about two hours e-mailing and PMing various people interested in helping out with various wiki and forum tasks. This thread is an announcement of the current status, with the intent of getting everyone up to date. Its also an invitation to people working independently on things to get in touch with me ([email protected]), because I've found there's some duplicate labour going on out there. Please if you respond to this thread, keep on topic and be serious. Most of the current set up is about technical details; if you're not interested in these, don't post. Suggestions from interested observers can go in other threads (there's a lot to choose from!), I want actual feedback from people that are involved or willing to be involved with this project.
First, it looks like sometime in the future, we will be migrating the forums to punbb. The details haven't been hashed out yet, but Romashka and cactus have both been working on testing the migration process. Migration seems to be relatively simple, but there are a lot of small details to be worked out. I don't have any specific timeline, but I'm guessing the new forum won't be ready until sometime next year.
Second, we may be migrating to dokuwiki sometime in the future. I'm not sure when, but it probably won't be until after the forum migration or at the same time. Regardless of whether or not we migrate from mediawiki to dokuwiki, we are planning on integrating the wiki and forum authentication mechanism, so your account on one will also work on the other. (In the long run, I'm praying we can get organized enough to also integrate AUR and flyspray, but that's a vision not even open for discussion yet!).
Third, we are currently working on cleaning up the current mediawiki. Romashka is working on a new style and template to make the current installation more aesthetically tolerable. Foxbunny is working on the actual wiki texts, category, and language structure. Tardo has some kind of hack to deal with the multi-language issue; I'm not sure if that will be implemented, as I have no information yet on how difficult it is. Someone (possibly me) will also have to update the mediawiki installation from 1.5.whatever to 1.8.latest.
Chronologically, the cleanup of the current wiki will occur first, in the next few weeks, hopefully. Once we have an idea of how pretty and how organized we can make the existing installation, we will make the final decision on a dokuwiki migration. The integration of punbb and dokuwiki|mediawiki has to happen at about the same time, so the migration will not happen until after the forum migration.
We've have been considering setting up a mailing list or private forum for discussion of these topics, to restrict discussion to those people who are actually interested in helping out. Because I don't really like the elitist nature of such a move, I'm making this forum the place for open discussion on this topic for now.
Thanks,
Dusty

No HTML nor Javascript in wiki and forums...

Hello,
Particularly in BSP forums, I am not able to post messages that contain HTML and/or Javascript. I have got a security error I don't have with normal posts...
It seems that the HTML and Javascript code parts are somehow interpreted, which results in an error. For example, one can write:
document.getElementById(<id of button>).click();
which is an invalid Javascript statement, but the same sentence with <id of button> replaced by a real Javascript character string raises an error...
I also tried in the Wiki, but the same error occurs.
Is there any way this can be avoided? Sometimes code samples are clearer than long explanations...
Thanks and regards,
Tanguy

Thank You Arch Wiki And Forums!

In under an hour, I had a working Arch system up and running, along side of my main Kubuntu and windows installations. I consider my linux skills to be very novice, and I did this with no problems and I understood the entire processs. I want to formally thank you all for the guides and information herer that have helped me do this flawlessly. Now comes the fun part of configuring and building my system! One more Kubuntu user on the way out!

When a new user posts to say thank you instead of "Arch is run by retarded monkeys", it's nice to have it's own thread.
You're right, of course.

HT1589 problems with itunes after updating..can't locate some of my songs..some have an exclamation point beside them how do i get these songs back in my itunes

I'm having problems with itunes after updating. I've lost all my playlists,,finally played around with it and got the songs back but some have an exclamation point beside them and can't be located. they are songs i've purchased. I'm not very computer literate so this is a major problem. I have spent hours with this. I just want all my songs to play even though I'm not happy that I have to recreate my playlists. It would be so much easier if I knew and understood how to correct this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so..is there an easy way to correct it?

Not sure how this is an ipod touch question.
Perhaps you should post in the itunes forum.

Start point for EHS

Hi All,
I am new in EHS and I would have a look at it. Would you please share with me any start point (Link, document and so on) if you have? How and from where should I start?
I found just a book on Amazon but unfortunately it was out of stock
Thanks in advance,
Omid

Dear Omid
I have only shortly googled to get ideas about SAP HCM. I am sorry to say that I was not able to detect any overlap to SAP EHS solution; SAP EHS does have "only" some interface to SAP HR. So your starting position in EHS is "not very good". But that should not hinder you to consider SAP EHS as a potential interesting future option. If you drill down this FORUM you will find many similar examples. That means consultants from SAP FI and othere areas are interested as well in learning SAP EHS.
Only some short feedback regarding:
"EHS can affect MM or SD procedures"; this is a link in both directions. To use SAP EHS (for some purposes) you need to link SAP EHS and SAP MM; SAP SD is linked to SAP EHS mainly in the area of SDS/MSDS distribution and Dangerous goods handling; but other integration options do exist as well.Check may be:
Substance Volume Tracking using SAP EHS MANAGEMENT
Examples of Integration of SAP EHS Management into other SAP Solutions
The main integration points are quite good explained here::
Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) - SAP Library
and here:
Extension 5.0 for SAP EHS Management – SAP Help Portal Page
The topic of training / certification etc. is mentioned as well in document: "SAP EHS Management for Beginners".
E.g. SAP FI etc. links to EHS are discussed here: Error
or here: EHS : Waste Management ( Why PO is created)
As SAP EHS is a "big" module it is nearly impossible to give you additional guidelines. The main "hint" is: Component Extension solution is getting now a "hype"; therefore mans project seem to come up; SAP EHS classic is "old" to a certain extent; in most case there is only the need to prepare "small" changes and I assume most chemical companies using SAP do use SAP EHS since years and the REACH and GHS hype is "over" to a certain extent. Clearly on regular basis changes are needed; but no real "big projects"
So if you are interested in SAP EHS you should may be check "Component Extension" solution. Here the link to SAP HR is "very" closed (as we talk about Incident and risk handling for persons etc.

Structural data as start point

Hi Experts,
I have a web service which has a complex type input and output. However, in the start point element, I cannot define a structure data type. On the other hand, if I drag a table view for the web service output and drag an end point element, the end point element will automatically generate the structural view. How can I solve it?
Best Regards

Sorry, Let me clarify my question.
Firstly, I have a web service which has a complex data type input. For example:
<product></product>
<supplier>
<name></name>
</supplier>
This web service allows consumer to get multiple suppliers' quotations. I want to integrate it into guided procedure. Hence, I drag a "start point" in VC and right click on it to define data. However, I cannot define structural data type which will pass multiple suppliers to the web service. How can I achieve it?
Best Regards

My Wikis and Ical on the WEB give a Server starting up.. message

Wikis (and Ical on the WEB) give a Server starting up... message with the turning wheel. They were working perfect, and yesterday started the problem. I have not changed any of the server settings neither permissions. From Mozilla Firefox on windows throes an Mac OS X server message
500: An internal error occurred trying to process your request. Sorry. Safari gives a Server starting up..
I checked permissions and look ok, root and admin group have read & write access. to
/Volumes/DATA HD/ServiceData/Web/Documents/Collaboration folder and up in the path.
Does anybody know how to solve this?
I tried updating to OS X 10.6.5 but the problem continues.

I am having a similar issue as you marktech, with colaboration folder on a different drive.
My temporary solution is to stop and start web services on the server, and the message goes away and users can log in. Problem comes back on a server restart.
Swamped here so have not been able to apply troubleshooting techniques.
What I have checked is verifying permissions on collaboration folder. Seems like I had to re-apply permissions after any significant update.
My final resolution will be to migrate from the ssd hard drive (the extra speed is not any significant impact for us) to a 1TB hard drive and migrate data back over to a single drive in original directory locations. appologies have not had ample time to research the issues....

Leopard 10.5.4 and Appleworks Starting Points

I am a teacher and love using Appleworks 6.2.9 Starting Points Calendars but with my new Imac/Intel I can't seem to get it to work. I keep getting that file cannot be converted to an Appleworks document. Can anyone give me information as to how to get this to work?

"I open AW, then go to File and plug down to Show Starting Points, click on it. Briefly I see the Starting Points box show up on the screen, then the screen shows up saying that file cannot be opened and do I want to report the problem to Apple. AW always quits at that point.
This is a far different statement from your original "I can't seem to get it [AppleWorks 6.2.9 Starting Points Calendar] to work. I keep getting that file cannot be converted to an Appleworks document."
If AppleWorks quits with a File cannot be opened" message while trying to open the Starting Points windows, that would indicate a problem with one of the files or folders in Starting Points. see below for some trouble-shooting steps.
I have tried to start up Calendar Asst from the hard drive list and it bounces me out and says cannot open file, do I want to report the problem to Apple. The error message is the same whether opening it from AW or the hard drive. "
This is normal behaviour. As I said earlier, the Assistants cannot be opened from the Finder, only from within AppleWorks. Trying to open an Assistant from the finder will result in the "cannot be converted" message you mentioned earlier. In AW 6, that means only from within Starting Points. (In the previous version Assistants and Templates were a menu item in the File menu.)
Trouble-shooting steps:
Qujit AppleWorks before each of these steps. At the end of each step, launch AppleWorks. If AW launches successfully, it indicates the problem lies within one of the folders/files removed during the step just finished; Go to "Successful launch?" If AppleWorks Quits with the same error message as before, continue with the next numbered step.
1
I would start with a maintenance step: Trash the contents of AppleWorks's Recent Items folder(s).
Go to Mac HD > Users > yourname > Documents > AppleWorks User Data > Starting Points > Recent Items. Drag all or most of the items in this folder to the Trash. (The items are aliases to the named files. Deleting them has no effect on the files themselves.) Close the Recent Items folder.
Create a New Folder on the Desktop. Name it AWUD, and drag all of the folders in AppleWorks User Data into the new AWUD folder.
2.
Create a New Folder, SP, on the Desktop. Go to Applications > AppleWorks 6 > Starting Points
Drag the first two folders (Assistants and Backgrounds) into the new SD folder.
3.
Drag the next two folders from Starting Points into SP.
4.
Repeat step 3 until all Starting Points folders have been moved into SP.
Successful launch?
Quit AppleWorks. Return the folders you moved in PREVIOUS steps to their original folders. Leave the items you moved in the most recent step in the folder where you put them. Launch AppleWorks.
A successful launch confirms the problem lies in one of the folders you removed in the most recent step.
Quit AppleWorks. Return one of the folders to its original folder. Launch AppleWorks. Repeat with the remaining folder(s) until AppleWorks quits as before.
Once you have located the folder containing the problem file, do a similar search of the files in that folder. Open the folder, drag half of the files it contains into one of the (now empty) new folders you created, then re launch AppleWorks. Put half the removed files back and launch again. Repeat until you locate the single file causing trouble.
If it's one that you do not use, trash it. If you do want to continue using it, it will probably be necessary to re-install AppleWorks from your original disks.

Barry

I just recently up graded from AI CS6 to AI CC and I am having issues with my pen tool. If I create a starting point and then make another point it does not allow me to make the second point an end point. The pen tool stays active and I either have to click to isolate the path or I have to return to the first point and close the path. Please help.

artisttouch,
If you cannot close the Pen Tool by switching to another tool, as a temporary measure you may try pressing P (for Pen).
To solve it, you may try the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Can't start oracle wiki and blog application right after installation

I've been setting up the wiki and blog application 10.1.3.4.0 on weblogic server 10gR3, windows 2003 server SP2 and on trying to launch the application using the url format http://host_name:port/owc_wiki I get the following error
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
Any ideas? The access logs are showing that there was a GET request, but I can't find the reason why the server is not servicing the request.

I hope who ever gets this problem gets help from this solution. I managed to solve my problem just that from the many diagnostic changes, I can't really put a finger on what really did the trick!!
I desided to go through the insatllation one more time. I noticed that when I create by Data source jdbc/OWCWikiDS and test it, it was testing successfully.
After setting up Data source I went bank to JDBC > DataSources > Monitoring > Testing. i selected my data source "wikiserver", and tested , i got this error -
"weblogic server Warning! Connectivity to backend database not verified. This is either because required connection pool attribute "TestConnectionsOnReserve" has not been enabled, or an invalid value has been specified for attribute "TestTableName". Please check the server log for more details.."
I then went to JDBC > DataSources > jdbc/OWCWikiDS> Connection Pool > Advanced
Test Connections On Reserve, and I checked it. Further to that I changed my driver from oracle Driver (thin) to BEA's oracle Driver Type 4AX.
Then I inspected my startWebLogic.cmd and noticed that my update for toplink was not at the exact place it had to be so I practically copied the whole if-else clause in the guide to replace my one.
After that My application was now working.

Wikis and blogs are currently disabled..... but I enabled them.

Brand new Xserve, Server version: 10.5.2
I'm going out on a limb here and admitting that I have no idea what I'm doing. My employer bought into the "so easy a non tech person can do it" idea and bought an xserve to have wikis and blogs. The idea is to have one web page with links to departmental wikis and blogs.
I set it up as an Open Directory Master, created four dummy user accounts in Workgroup Manager, a Group called Blog and put those four dummy users into that Group.
Back in Server Admin, I enabled web services and started it. The default Apple provided default home page shows up fine when I go to the ip address in a browser window. Went back into Server Admin, chose the site I just added, clicked the Sites button, clicked Web Services and enabled blog, wiki and blog, calendar, clicked Save. Stopped web service and restarted it.
When I open the page in a web browser I get the Getting Status.... and then it says wikis and blogs are disabled, use server preferences (I can't find that anywhere) or Server Admin to enable. I thought I did enable it in the web services pane.
Any advice besides head for the hills?
Thanks in advance.

Changing the owner/group of wikis...
The Apple website for OS X.5 Server includes a basic primer on command line editing, you should go through it. That aside, you will need to know your administrative (root) password to accomplish this, if not, you won’t get past the first ‘su’ command. The following instructions assume you are using a completely ‘default’ setup and not trying to have your collaboration folders on another file system or anything tricky.
(FYI- as far as I know, none of the instructions I will put into the quotations will include the numeral one, they are all lower case “L”’s if it’s hard to read in this font.)
1. Open the Terminal and drag the window as big as you’d like. Type “su root” and enter your root administrative password. Be very careful from this point forward as you can do a lot of damage.
2. Type “cd /library”
3. Type “ls -l”
4. Look for the line which lists “Collaboration” in the right-hand column, it should read something like: “drwxrwxr-x 6 _teamsserver _teamsserver” in the first few columns. Everything should match except perhaps the number ‘6’. “teamsserver” is both the owner and the group for this directory.
5. Use the same command to check each of the owner and group on the subdirectories and files of the subdirectories - they should all be owner and group of _teamsserver. Following is an example from my server, note that I do not precede the “collaboration...” with a “/”, this is because I am already inside the “library” directory.
sh-3.2# ls -l collaboration
total 8
drwxr-x--- 4 _teamsserver _teamsserver 136 Apr 22 20:12 ArchivedGroups
drwxr-x--- 3 _teamsserver _teamsserver 374 Apr 23 11:34 Groups
drwxr-x--- 3 _teamsserver _teamsserver 102 Mar 14 21:43 Users

-rw-r----- 1 _teamsserver _teamsserver 5120 Apr 22 21:02 index.db
drwxr-x--- 2 _teamsserver _teamsserver 68 Apr 22 20:12 mailinglist
-rw-r----- 1 _teamsserver _teamsserver 484 Apr 23 11:34 metadata.plist
drwxr-x--- 2 _teamsserver _teamsserver 68 Apr 22 20:12 public
drwxr-x--- 2 _teamsserver _teamsserver 68 Apr 22 20:12 resources
drwxr-x--- 2 _teamsserver _teamsserver 68 Apr 22 20:12 weblog
drwxr-x--- 3 _teamsserver _teamsserver 102 Apr 22 20:12 wiki
sh-3.2# ls -l collaboration/groups/pyrranwiki/wiki
total 0
drwxr-x--- 7 _teamsserver _teamsserver 238 Apr 22 20:12 welcome.page
6. If you noticed any of these owners or groups showing something other than _teamsserver then perform the following command which will change the owner and group for the entire directory structure of /libaray/collaboration. (NOTE: Upper/lower case IS important here! NOTE: “teamsserver” has two “s”’s in it!):
chown -Rv teamsserver:teamsserver /library/collaboration
If done right, you should have a list of directories and subdirectories spit back at you.
This may only solve some of your problems, if you have more, check out the discussion “Topic : Wiki - No group with that name hosted on this server?” where I posted a fairly lengthy set of instructions to solve a different wiki problem last night.
Good luck!

AFP, WIKI and iCal not working

Hello all,
After some trouble with OpenDirectory i am not able to list AFP shares, see the WIKI and start iCal services on 10.5.5 server. Details of this: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8393887#8393887
I am not sure if the topic link above is related but it happened at about the same time. Also, i am not sure if the three services i'm having trouble with are all linked...???
Trying to start and list AFP shares:
vp1095:~ root# serveradmin stop afp
afp:state = "STOPPED"
afp:status = 0
afp:timeStamp = "2008-11-03 11:36:09 +1030"
vp1095:~ root# serveradmin start afp
afp:state = "RUNNING"
afp:status = 0
vp1095:~ root# sharing -a /Volumes/Drive1/
vp1095:~ root# sharing -l
List of Share Points
vp1095:~ root#
Notice no shares are listed. Now to iCal:
From ServerAdmin GUI, i click "Start iCal" and it returns the error: "No virtual host found for iCal service". Logs show:
Nov 3 11:38:41 vp1095 /usr/sbin/servermgrd61: servermgr_calendar: created default calendar virtual host
Nov 3 11:38:41 vp1095 /usr/sbin/servermgrd61: servermgr_calendar: Virtual Host record is not network accessible, unable to start iCal Server
As for the WIKI, it seems i can browse the directories through my browser when i should really be seeing the WIKI interface. It's not running correctly. I have checked the path in ServerAdmin and it apepars to be correct. I have done a little testing with varied paths but still no-go.
The above is a simple view of what is going wrong.
DNS is hosted on a different server and here is some troubleshooting info. Note the server is "vp1095.vp.in":

Primary address = 192.168.0.127
Current HostName = vp1095.vp.in
DNS HostName = vp1095.vp.in
The names match. There is nothing to change.
So DNS seems to be working. Apache is working fine as is eMail, DHCP, MySQL, Printing and RADIUS. Both running on that same server. This is an OD master with no slaves. The server is running 10.5.5 on Mac Pro hardware.

If the opendirectory is running on osx server then you would be better posting this issue in the server section of the forum.
