Strange behaviour... solutions?

Hi
Did anyone experienced the following behaviour and has a solution for it?
Forms 10g/WinXP
Multi-Row database block
some columns , one of them is a varchar2-column where in the value exists a chr(13) from time to time, because it was edited in a multiline editbox with carriage returns.
In the afore mentioned block, the textbox isn't multiline but singleline. If you click with your mouse into this field, parts of the screen output disappears, for instance everything
which is left from this field.
My only solution is to replace the chr(13) in the select of the block.
Does anyone has a better solution?

This would also have been my suggestion.

Cursor shows strange behaviour in 10.9.5

HI,
I'm using a 15" MBPr late 2013, i7, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, running on 10.9.5. Lately I registered a very strange behaviour of the cursor when using the built in trackpad. If hovering over one of the symbols in the bar at the upper right corner of the screen and then moving the cursor downward, the menu of the symbol on the right of the cursor pops up (not the one the cursor ist pointing on).
For example: the symbol for WiFi is located left from the one regulating the volume. When hovering over WiFi and moving downwards to activate/deactivate it, the volume-controle pops up ! If I want to use the WiFi, I have to hover over the symbol for bluetooth-connectivity instead....
Any idea whats happening here ?
Help is very much appreciated !
MIchael

OK, found the solution by myself. The reason seemed to be related to the resolution of the display. Changed it to another one (no matter which one), waited for the display to change and the changed the res back to optimal for display.
The cursor now works fine and exactly....
Really weird.

Windows 8.1 Enterprise Evaluation- Strange behaviour of network adapter

Hello there are discussions and questions around this community about network adapter dropping connection while system is running. But I have found unique problem with my network adapter driver.
I have tried to state my problem as clearly as possible. Please ask if any detail is required.
My network status shows no access on following occasions:
1. On alternate system wakeups.
eg:
a. System boots up
Internet accessible
no problem
b. I put system to sleep(first time) and wake it up
No access to internet !!!
When I check in network and sharing center not even adapter shows in disabled status.(See video from the link given below).
c. Without restarting system or without installing network adapter again, I put system to sleep again and wake it up (2nd time).
Internet accessible
d. I put system to sleep for (3rd time) and wakes it up.
No access to internet!!
If I put system to sleep again and wake it up definitly I get network access.
2. If I switch off the modem before windows shutdown completely or in the process of shutdown, next time when I boot system, even though the modem is switched on before booting the system, No internet access tooltip will be shown on network
sysbol.
Another strange behaviour is on no internet access status, I start installing adapter, and it loads required files and prompt me to click "next" and "click" install.
But the thing is before I go to "next" button, I will get network access as shown in this link
http://youtu.be/sPlXVEiYBeo. Ignore virtualbox adapter. Same behaviour was there when there is no vbox adapter. Same was happening in Windows 8 Pro, but not in windows 7, so that there is no H/W problem I think.
Any idea on how to fix this or any alternate solution ?

Hi,
Firstly, access your network adapter official website to get the proper driver applied to your system.
Then going to Control Panel > Device Manager, right click your adapter > Properties. Under the Power Management tab, make sure "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" checkbox unchecked.
If it still persists, try to disable "fast startup" as below steps:
1.In Control Panel, open the Power Options item.
2.Click the Choose what the power buttons do link.
3.Clear the Turn on fast startup (recommended) check box.
4.Click Save Settings.

Strange behaviour - any ideas?

Strange behaviour began when i was unable to open a new page in photoshop.
The next day i was unable to print from word or photoshop or emails.
However i could print from freehand and excel!
I used disk 1 to verify and repair disk.
this did not solve the problem as then when i tried to open Safari the toolbar opened but no window.
I have reinstalled the operating system making an archive but this also has not had an effect.
Any ideas on what to do next or should I just reinstall the operating system over the old one?
many thanks 4 any help

Sarah, to help the knowlegable users here please advise which model G5 iMac you have & include this info in your system info preference by clicking on the "My Settings" link in the right hand column.-->
This way, you won't have to keep repeating yourself and the knowlegable users will be able to provide you with the correct trouble shooting information/solutions if the problem is your computer.
Also, it will be helpful if you will advise which version of Word, Photoshop you have, which email program & the type of printer you are using.
Thank you.

Strange behaviour on text insert into a HTML pane

Hi all,
I am trying to fix a problem on inserting a span tag into an existing html page (in an EDITABLE JEditorPane).
The behaviour:
Assuming the cells in a table (3 rows, 2 columns) are numbered from 1 to 6, with cell one being the top left most, cell 2 top right, cell 3 middle left, etc.
1. Inserting the text "" in cell 4 causes during any attempt to later type into cell 5 the characters to be appended instead into cell 4, directly after the close span tag.
2. The insertion in the first place behaves strange. If I have the caret positioned for cell 5 so that I can insert there
(via the function void javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit.insertHTML(HTML Document doc, int offset, String html, int popDepth, int pushDepth, Tag insertTag) )
even though the caret position is visible in cell 5, the insertion seems to take place in cell 4.
I can sort of compensate for this by adding 1 to the offset. However, then when inserting into a line of text, for example, "the quick red fox jumped over the lazy dog"
I insert directly before the 'j' in 'jumped', the insertion looks like this "the quick red fox j..umped over the lazy dog"
So that is no solution.
IMPORTANT! Just to prove it is not the span tag causing the trouble, if this span tag already exists in a cell on 'Load' of the html file, the strange behaviour is not observed.
Something is going wrong here. It is me? Or is it a bug?
Please help!!
Here is a test app, and the test html you can use (place in current directory).
Please test like this:
1. run application (the html should be loaded into the pane)
2. the span tag is programmed to automatically insert at cell 4 (by using the +1 method on the insert)
3. another span tag was already existing in the html file, at cell 8
4. Attempt to type into cell 5
result: the text appears instead at cell 4
5. Type into cell 9
result: the text correctly is entered into cell 9
See the difference!!

fix another stuffed up attempt at a SSCCE.

Well, I know nothing about HTML in JEditorPanes. I have never been able to figure out how insertions work.
My comment was a warning to others. Some people (like me) avoid answering posting of this type for reasons given in the JavaRanch link. Others will answer anyway. Other might first check the other site to see if they are wasting there time, but they can only do that if a link was posted with the original question.
The only suggestion I have is to repost the question, (since this posting is now completely off topic) making sure to then respond to this posting stating that a fresh question has been asked so you don't get a discussion going on in two places.

Strange behaviour of .swf movies - AS2/AS3

Hello from Italy,
     this is my first post and I think I need some help from the experts...
     I am putting together an interactive Flash movie which is made of several different small movies. For the sake of clarity, I'll call them A.swf, B.swf, ..., Z.swf. The movies are launched from each other depending on certain buttons I've implemented.
     The first one, A.swf, is actually a sort of "main menu": it grants access to all the other movies and it is also the point of return from them when a certain button is pressed.
     Important: All the movies are scripted in AS3, except for the last one which, for a number of reasons, is scripted in AS2.
     The return from any (but the last) movie to the first, say B.swf to A.swf, is implemented like this:
function eventResponseSole(event:MouseEvent):void {
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(myLoader);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("A.swf");
myLoader.load(url);
sole_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, eventResponseSole);
     This is, of course, AS3.
     The last movie, which is scripted in AS2, returns to A.swf like this:
luna_btn.onRelease = function() {
loadMovie("A.swf", _root);
     The strange behaviour is this: if I launch Z.swf and navigate with the proper button up to A.swf, everything works. But if I launch A.swf, navigate to Z.swf and attempt to return, this doesn't work. There are no problems, instead, moving up and down between movies scripted in AS3, that is with the first bit of code I've pasted. My guess is that the syntax in AS2 is correct, but something stops A.swf from "launching itself" when the control is transferred to Z.swf, but the movie is launched in the original window. Is this diagnosis reasonable? And if so, would someone kindly provide a way out of this? Re-doing Z.swf in AS3 is not an option, I'm afraid, it will have to stay as it is. I also have to add I've tried some solutions by setting _lockroot, but this doesn't seem to work.
     Many thanks in advance!
     Marco Olivotto

Mixing AS2 into AS3 is not without stipulations... and I am no expert on translating those stipulations, but here is what the Flash documentation says regarding the matter... the third paragraph may be significant to your case:
- ActionScript 3.0 code can load a SWF file written in ActionScript 1.0 or 2.0, but it cannot access the SWF file's variables and functions.
- SWF files written in ActionScript 1.0 or 2.0 cannot load SWF files written in ActionScript 3.0. This means that SWF files authored in Flash 8 or Flex Builder 1.5 or earlier versions cannot load ActionScript 3.0 SWF files.
The only exception to this rule is that an ActionScript 2.0 SWF file can replace itself with an ActionScript 3.0 SWF file, as long as the ActionScript 2.0 SWF file hasn't previously loaded anything into any of its levels. An ActionScript 2.0 SWF file can do this through a call to loadMovieNum(), passing a value of 0 to the level parameter.

Nokia C3-01 -strange behaviour/ problems with Noki...

When I was choosing my new mobile, I had two options : Samsung Wave 533 and Nokia C3-01. After a lot of hesitance I decided to pick up Nokia, believing to its high quality despite its poor media potential. However, now I think that it was a bad idea.
      Firstly, I have never thought that Touch and Type won't have ability to adjust brightness of the screen (AWFUL IN THE NIGHT), set up more then one alarm and use many of JAVA applications. When I tried to install some applications, it said- out of memory. Out of memory?! My old SE K770i could much more! What annoys me the most is that I can't use my e-mail account via Nokia Mail. When I press the icon of it , there is an error Null pointer exception and applications shuts. Other strange behaviour- while I was typing sms , suddenly there was hard, long vibration, screen went white and mobile restarted. Other users of C3-01, check this: go to messages, then other messages , then direct , start typing and try to go back to menu- screen turns white, mobile restarts (I'm polish , so names may be a little bit different) . How on earth, can mobile restart so often?.
    , Secondly,the funniest one- Ovi shop. Important thing in every Nokia. Guess what- I can't use it! When I to launch the apllication and try to go to the shop, there is information that it's not avaible for my phone. I used it a week ago and worked properly.
      All in all, I hope that Nokia will share an update of software to this model. I am just so disappointed. What I am sure about that next mobile will not be from finnish enterprise.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sorry Brother, Your Device is totally misfunctioned and FAULTY, You Need to go back to Nokia Care Centre and GET IT REPLACED.
Your Device is faulty.
Please Dont Blame Nokia Or the C3-01 Device Because both are QUALITY PRODUCTS.
I have C3-01 Since 4 Months Now and I havent Had a Single Complain about my device even though I am a Rough Handler and Using the Mobile Upto its Extend.
You Have 2 options, Try To Fix your Device at Home By :
Soft reset your Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type you need to press *#7780# and then Dial. The security code is 12345. Once you complete this, your phone will come back to factory settings, but you will not loose personal data. Anyway it is recommended to make a backup before performing any of the mentioned procedures.
To hard reset your Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type you just have to press *#7370# and press Dial. The phone will request the security code that is by default 12345. Please be aware that you will loose all the data in your phone, so you should backup all relevant information.
If Problem still persist then Connect to PC Suite/Ovi Suite and Reinstall the Firmware.
BUT U NEED YOUR DEVICE TO BE UPDATED TO ITS LATEST FIRMWARE = v06.05
If still not fixed then, REPLACE YOUR DEVICE ASAP, because as given by Nokia, C3-01 Device Works according to its Specification as Specified.

Strange behaviour in ORacle Forms Webutil 106 / Error message WUC-14 WUC-12

This is to inform you about a strange behaviour in Webutil V1.0.6
Hosting environment is Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 on Unix Solaris 10
Oracle Server 10.2.0.4.0 Enterprise Edition
Client-envionment : Windows 2000, IE 6
I created an Forms based application which reads in certain text files into the database using
Webutil. The data will get changed using the application with logic and lateron a different textfile
will be transmitted using either ftp or it may be created on the client side (again with Webutil).
This solution worked perfect for some time (a year or so) using CLIENT_TEXT_IO...
Hoewever, during the week, I recognized users coming up with the statement that the download
to the local client does not worked anymore in certain situations. The system is producing an error-msg
on the Form in the following sequence :
WUC-14 [getFromObjectCache] ...
WUC-14 [getFromObjectCache] ...
WUC-12 [FileFunctions.newLine()] ...
I traced the session and traced WebUtil, was able to reproduce the problem but could not find out the source
of it in the first place.
Hoewever, it came out, that part of the file being created on the client is a "¿" sign : hex :$BF
This was already part of the file being read in the first place, so the value is stored in the database.
There is no problem when reading a file having a content like this with CLIENT_TEXT_IO but there obviously is one
when writing it to the local client.
The file is getting processed on the client and gets closed with CLIENT_TEXT_IO.FCLOSE.
After the FCLOSE statement is getting processed, the above errors occurs, The length of the produced file is then : 0 bytes ^^
Whenever facing a problem like this check the content of the file you are trying to create.
Workaround was :
- set workingDirectory in formsweb.cfg
- using Forms based TEXT_IO rather than CLIENT_TEXT_IO to create the file on the backend side (Apps-server)
- implement WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.AS_To_Client_With_Progress to download the file to the client
In order to make it a little bit "colourful" I implemented a bean with progressbar when creating the file on the back end side
Works perfect... and looks nice :)

Hi Andreas,
install.syslib.location.client.0=webutil\syslibi found the above line over google but when i check my webutility configuration file i didn't found it there. I added this line after the line i have mentioned in previous post but this also not worked. And then i worked on changing permission over folder.
HI XeM
Your adding location is ok. But i suggest try something different. Change the above line to
/* i'm confuse with the \ or / *\
install.syslib.location.client.0=\webutil
or
install.syslib.location.client.0=/webutilAnd do the following work In the client
1. Close ALL open browsers.
2. On the client machine search all directories for webutil.*properties and delete all instances of that file.
3. Delete d2kwut60.dll, JNIsharedstubs.dll, and jacob.dll from the JRE\bin directory.
4. Clear the JRE jar cache. This can be done several ways, but using the Java Control Panel is likely the easiest and safest.
Now stop the OC4J instance and start again and try at client...
Hope this works...
If works... please post the solutions.

FIM Load Balancing and SPN's - Strange behaviour

I have a FIM setup in a domain
I have mycorp.com and a domain in the same forest contractor.mycorp.com (fictional setup)
I have 2 servers built in the contractors.mycorp.com domain
Id1
Id2
Id1 has the Service and portal on wss3 in SharePoint farm mode, Sp central admin is on this as well
Id2 has the service and is a load balanced SharePoint farm.
I have NLB setup and working the service name is identity.mycorp.com pointing at the IP of the NLB
I have a CNAME identity pointing at identity.mycorp.com
Identity.mycorp.com is used as the name of the Service and the Portal.
In the ApplicationHost.config I have
<system.webServer>
 <security>
 <authentication>
 <windowsAuthentication enabled="true" useKernelMode="true"
useAppPoolCredentials="true" />
 </authentication>
 </security>
</system.webServer>
I have kernel mode enabled, and I have Windows authentication enabled in the IIS console on id1 and id2.
The app pool credentials are a domain account SPService for SharePoint Service, the app pool is set on both id1 and id2 servers. The root domain account mycorp\SPService us used.
In
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories
I have set
<resourceManagementClient
requireKerberos="true"
I have registered the alternate URL mappings for SharePoint as
Identity
Identity.myCorp.com
I have registered SPN's for
Setspn –S FIMService/identity.myCorp.com myCorp\FIMService
Setspn –S FIMService/identity myCorp\FIMService
Setspn –S HTTP/identity.myCorp.com myCorp\SPService
Setspn –S HTTP/identity myCorp\SPService
I have configured delegation for both accounts in ADUC for the identity.mycorp.com
So all is well and I installed everything fine.
Now my problem is that if I go to id1 and browse to http://identity/identitymanagement I get redirected , and authenticated with my admin account to
http://id1/IdentityManagement/default.aspx
On id1 if I go to http://identity.myCorp.com/identitymanagement I get prompted for credentials, when I enter myCorp\FIMAdmin and my password I get redirected to the portal at
http://id1/IdentityManagement/default.aspx
If I try and authenticate to any of the previous URL's from other machines in my domain, including the load balanced box id2 I get "HTTP Error 401. The requested resource requires user authentication."
Even if I try and browse to
http://id1/identitymanagement from another machine I am getting 401. Only on
http://id1 am I getting a result, even if there is a prompt.
I am sure my SPN's are fine, there are no duplicate SPN's , I checked with the -x switch
So my load balanced portal and service are not working as I would have thought , I have looked at
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webtopics/archive/2009/01/19/service-principal-name-spn-checklist-for-kerberos-authentication-with-iis-7-0.aspx
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/484faae8-4df6-4b81-8b2d-9d75d5258e4f/fim-portal-http-error-401-the-requested-resource-requires-user-authentication?forum=ilm2
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/4473.fim-http-error-401-the-requested-resource-requires-user-authentication.aspx
http://setspn.blogspot.ie/2010/06/kerberos-basic-troubleshooting-tip-3.html
The only thing that I can think of is that the machine is in the contractors.myCorp.com domain which makes the machine
unique from where the SPN's are registered, but if that was the case then browsing to the portal from
http://id1 would certainly fail.
Can anyone see anything wrong with my approach ?
Normally I find SharePoint a pain, but this week it seems to be this.
When I ran the fim service install I specified identity.myCorp.com as the name of the server
Rob

In my Load Balanced setup it helped a lot (on some strange behaviours) when I set up Load Balancer to keep session on one server.

[solved] AMD Radeon - strange behaviour after mesa-update

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen,
This is my first posting, I will try to give as much as detailed information refering to my problem as possible. Please be patient if I ask for solutions which for you all seem easy and logical, I am a Newbie.
The details: I am running a HP Pavilion 17 " AMD Quadcore laptop, 8gb Ram, Arch Linux 32bit Kernel 3.17.1 XFCE desktop with an AMD Radeon graphic card for about a few weeks now. Everything went fine so far, but last Saturday I did an update via pacman-Syu, the update included a mesa package. All went smooth as ever. Then after a reboot the XFCE desktop had stripes across the laptop screen, the mouse cursor had disappeared, also letters of the icon descriptions and the menus were missing, some strange "hieroglyphics" appeared instead of them. I wasn't able to downgrade the mesa-package as I nearly wasn't able to open the terminal because of the missing mouse cursor, then I managed somehow to get into the terminal and gave in the commands but the writing was incomplete and/or did not work because of these strange and missing letters.
No problem, I thought to myself, a fresh install will do the work, so I wipped my hard drive using Parted Magic, then I did a fresh Arch install (Netinstall), this time using LXDE instead of XFCE as my desktop environment. When I booted into the login screen first, it looked fine but after logging into the desktop all the stripes, the missing mouse cursor and the strange letters appeared again. So is there any solution to that strange behaviour ? Before the Saturday-update everything worked without any problems for weeks. BTW other OS work without these problems, I tried Macpup just for fun, no messing-up with my Radeon graphics card happened.
Sorry for my piss poor English I am Austrian. Sorry for eventually causing any inconvenience asking this question. Regards, Fladi.

Strange behaviour iPhone 4 Safari

While testing my website's mobile version on several devices, I noticed a very strange behaviour.
I have a scrollable content div with overflow: auto, and this works properly on all tested devices, except iPhone 4 on Safari. Other browsers and devices display it correctly, even iPhone 5 Safari.
On iPhone 4 Safari, when you scroll to the end of the content, a lot of extra whitespace appears at the bottom (looks like 100-200% extra height) and the text disappears when scrolling. This doesn't happen on any other devices in Safari, nor does it happen in other browsers on iPhone 4.
Has anyone ever heard of such a phenomenon before? I have absolutely no clue what causes this behaviour or how to fix it.
Since I only have access to a limited amount of devices for testing, I may be overlooking other devices/browsers where this issue also occurs. If you have a mobile device and want to test it as well, the live site is here: Live site. On the mobile homepage, click one of the logo's to expand the content, then try scrolling down.

Is this possibly a device / OS-specific bug?

Strange Behaviour in Pentium IV machine

Hi all. I put this post in Java HotSpot forum, but that forum seems not to be as popular as this, so I've decided to post it here too.
I've been reading posts in this forum (and another in this site) for more than a week trying to find any idea that could help me with my "strange" problem, but with no success.
I've developed an application that manages some info stored in Mysql. My developing machine is a Pentium II (400MHz) with Red Hat 7.3 Valhalla installed. I use Mysql 3.23.49 and J/Connector (version 2.0.14) downloaded from Mysql site and JRE version 1.4.1.-b21.
The production machine is a Pentium IV (1.60 GHz) , with the same Red Hat version, the same JRE version and Mysql 3.23.51.
Well, in developing machine I am able to run up to 4 instances of the application witout crashing, only decreasing timing performance. But in production machine, I get and "strange" behaviour. Sometimes (1 of each 10 times) the application crashes (even the machine crashes sometimes), and I get Hot Spot log files (hs_err_pid####.log) like these

After this text, I get Dynamic libraries info.
I can't figure out what's happening. I have read in these forums that Signal 11 is about Segmentation Fault, or JVM trying to write in forbidden positions.
Later I read that JVM could crash on Pentium IV processors under certain circumstances, but isn't those issues supossed to be fixed in version 1.4.1?
The last trail I'm following is J/Connector, because in error messages type 2 and 3 are involved mysql classes. But it doesn't explain the fact that in developing machine everything runs properly.
I also consider the posibility of corrupted files in hard disk, but all of them seem to be OK (sizes in production machine matches those in developing machine).
Can anyone help me showing me another trail to follow?
Thanks to all in advance.
Note: Please, forgive my English and the length of this post.

Hi OMcGovern. Thanks for your answer.
I've a couple of theorys,
1) The second last stack trace call is for encoding.
The basic US version of the JRE only supports about
ut 8 basic encoding schemes. You could try running it
with the international version of the JRE.
( To check version : if i18n.jar is in JRE's lib
directory, it's the international version )I've checked it and I don't have the international version (not in production machine and not in developing machine). I downloaded the "Linux RPM in self-extracting file" version, (in both cases) and there is no choice for downloading any "international" version or something like this. I'll search for it in sun site. It seems to be a good guess to follow, because production machine is allocated in the USA, and developing machine is here in Spain.
2) Running java -Xint ( interpreted mode ), might
rule out any hotspot errors. It could give you more
debugging information too.
Worth a shot.I'm not running with that option.
3) It doesn't quite make sense that the last stack
trace entry is a
security call, in an application. Are you doing
ng anything strange ?
Eg. writing your own classloaders or the like ?No I'm not doing. Maybe a problem with J/Connector, but my deep doubt and what's driving me crazy is : Why is runnig all ok (I was really proud of this fact because this is my first "big" app in Java) in my developing machine and crashing in production machine?
I'll look for i18n.jar, will install it and let's see what happens..
Thanks again.

APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

Hi
For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
Thanks
Brian
[Oracle EE 11gR2, Windows Server 2008R2, APEX 4.1, APEX Listener 1.1.3]

Hi Brian,
it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

Strange behaviour of Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command)

hello guys,
i wrote a program which executes some commands in commandline (actually tried multiple stuff.)
what did i try?
open "cmd.exe" manually (administrator)
type "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" and hit enter, which returns me
"AMD64"
type "java -version" and hit enter, which returns me:
"java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
type "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip"" returns me:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7-zip
Path REG_SZ C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
i wrote two functions to execute an command
1) simply calls exec and reads errin and stdout from the process started:
public static String execute(String command) {
 String result = "";
 try {
 // Execute a command
 Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
 // Read from an input stream
 InputStream in = child.getInputStream();
 int c;
 while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
 result += ((char) c);
 in.close();
 in = child.getErrorStream();
 while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
 result += ((char) c);
 in.close();
 } catch (IOException e) {
 return result;
 }the second function allows me to send multiple commands to the cmd
public static String exec(String[] commands) {
 String line;
 String result = "";
 OutputStream stdin = null;
 InputStream stderr = null;
 InputStream stdout = null;
 // launch EXE and grab stdin/stdout and stderr
 try {
 Process process;
 process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe");
 stdin = process.getOutputStream();
 stderr = process.getErrorStream();
 stdout = process.getInputStream();
 // "write" the parms into stdin
 for (int i = 0; i < commands.length; i++) {
 line = commands[i] + "\n";
 stdin.write(line.getBytes());
 stdin.flush();
 stdin.close();
 // clean up if any output in stdout
 BufferedReader brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(
 new InputStreamReader(stdout));
 while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
 result += line + "\n";
 brCleanUp.close();
 // clean up if any output in stderr
 brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stderr));
 while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
 result += "ERR: " + line + "\n";
 brCleanUp.close();
 } catch (IOException e) {
 // TODO Auto-generated catch block
 e.printStackTrace();
 return result;
 }so i try to execute the commands from above (yes, i am using \\ and \" in java)
(1) "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"
(2) "java -version"
(3) "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip""
the first function returns me (note that ALL results are different from the stuff above!):
(1) "" <-- empty ?!
(2) java version "1.6.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
(3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
the second function returns me:
(1) x86 <-- huh? i have AMD64
(2) java version "1.6.0_11"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
(3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
horray! in this version the java version is correct! processor architecture is not empty but totally incorrect and the reg query is still err.
any help is wellcome
note: i only put stuff here, which returns me strange behaviour, most things are working correct with my functions (using the Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command); code)
note2: "reg query "HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0" /t REG_SZ" IS working, so why are "some" queries result in ERR, while they are working if typed by hand in cmd.exe?

ok, i exported a jar file and execute it from cmd:
java -jar myjar.jar
now the output is:
(1) "" if called by version 1, possible to retrieve by version 2 (no clue why!)
(2) "java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
(3) C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
so all three problems are gone! (but its a hard way, as i need both functions and parse a lot of text... :/ )
thanks for the tip, that eclipse changes variables (i really did not knew this one...)

Report S_ALR_87013542 strange behaviour

Hi All,
Report S_ALR_87013542 - Actual/Comm/Total/Plan in COAr crcy - is showing up cross signs in some of the columns.When the cross sign (like any other column value) is clicked the line item detail are sown correctly.
Has anybody encountered this kind of issue before ?
I googled and searched various forums but all in vain.
Please provide inputs to correct this strange behaviour of Report S_ALR_87013542. Thanks!
Regards
Dev

Hello Dev,
Did you execute report RKACOR04 for the affected object number and checked if this still happens ?

View Master mode strange behaviour with jpg files

Hy all,
I'm using Aperture, and I'm tweakin a lot the SW to discover all secrets ....
I'm really concerned about a strange behaviour of the SW in view mode.
If I open a jpg file, do not apply ANY modification, and apply the "show master" command (pressing M), there's a subtle behaviour :
*the images get sharper !!!!*
It behaves as if an "edge sharpening" was applied !!!!!!
With _RAW files this thing doesn't happen at all._
Even stranger, if I zoom to full definition (by pressing Z), and toggle between normal view and "show master" view, the immage remains the same !
The effect is not so evident with all images, but sometimes it is !!
Anyway, I expect not to have such kind of things with a professional SW.
With professional cameras and good quality files it's really annoying not to beeing sure what's the REAL content of the jpg image.
Has anyone noted this thing ? Is there a reasonable explanation ?
The only one I tried to figure out is the following : may be Aperture applies some kind of resampling algorithm with jpg files (bicubic, bilinear, etc).
May be this resampling is not applied with 100% magnification, as weel as with raw files.
But it's only my guessing. Now, I'm tweaking other viewers and other SW to understand what's the real jpg image stored in the file : the blurer one form normal view or the sharper one with "show master" mode.
I stress once again : of course, the jpg file I'm talking about have no settings at all, just imported and toggled with M button.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Enzo

Hy,
I'm afraid I'm not been clear.
The problem is this :
1) jpg image opened in normal view mode, no zoom, (no quick preview, of course) : image with a certain amount of blour
2) jpg image opened in show master mode, no zoom, (no quick previre, of course) : image SHARPER with respect with the previous.
No edit applied from import, so "show master" command shouln't apply any change in rendering, should it ?
The only thing I said on 100% view is that such difference (between normal mode e show mastermode) is not present with 100% magnification.
That was the issue.
Enzo
