Sun Gathering Debug Data

I wanted to let everyone on this list know about a new set of tools called Sun Gathering Debug Data (Sun GDD or GDD).
GDD is a way to better equip and educate customers who need to contact the Sun Technical Support Center on what debug data they need to provide the first time they call. For each product covered, GDD tools provide documentation and scripts that detail the relevant data the Sun Technical Support Center requires for analyzing problems. The tools gather 90% of the debug data frequently requested by the Sun Technical Support Center, including data for more common critical situations such as memory, start/stop, installation, hang, and crash issues. By collecting this data before initiating a Service Request, customers can substantially reduce the time needed to analyze and resolve the problem.
The first release of GDD supports Messaging Server and Calendar Server, as well as many of the Java ES components, on all of the released operating systems. Support for other products is also currently underway. For more information on GDD, see the following URL :

Gathering POI data

Hi all,
I've been able to gather geolocation data as far as latitude and longitude goes. How would I go about gathering POI data? I'm mainly interested in the types of businesses in the area, not their names - pharmacies, banks, parks, etc. I'm fairly new to actionscript so this may be a silly question.
Thank you.

IPad Console Debug data

*As many other, I have had wireless problems including intermittent connectivity as well as the loss of WEP security settings. After 5 days of reading these posts and troubleshooting, I decided to get into Xcode and start some debugging. I wanted to post some preliminary data so that others could get a look at it right away. I will do some thorough testing today and post the results here.*
Here are some things I figured out so far. I have listed my findings and the supporting debug data below. (debug info is in italic)
-John
*Some setup info:*
I am using Verizon Fios provided Actiontec (Firmware Version: 4.0.16.1.56.0.10.11.6)
I have had 50% less failures using WPA2 as compared to using WEP
_+AppleBCMWLAN Joined BSS: @ 0xc3d1d800, BSSID = 00:18:01:eb:72:87, rssi = -49, rate = 54 (100%), channel = 3, encryption = 0xc, ap = 1, failures = 0, age = 2, ssid 5 = "M9YW1"+_
All of my tests have been about 15 feet from the router while tethered over USB to be able to receive the debug data. The battery status is "not charging" since I am on a Macbook, however the power is sustained and not dropping power.
1. There are several power modes and they are changed before and after IP address is received over DHCP. The power management scheme looks to raise the power to the device during network discovery and DHCP discovery, and then lower the power after the IP is received.
2. Clicking on the wireless section inside of the settings menu causes a "wakeup" of the interface if it has become unresponsive.
3. The following error regarding network cache shows my network name M9YW1. This error repeats about 20 times and correlates to the times the wireless drops.
_+WiFiManager(Private) _scanCompletedWithResults:: Had to add our current network(M9YW1) back into our network cache+_
4. Bad gateway error comes up periodically even though previous debugs show the correct address, as well as the devices settings reflecting it's using the correct address. (not to mention it's communicating with the router just fine up to this point)
_+<Debug>: nd6_rtrequest: bad gateway value: en0+_
5. This one is interesting since I am using WPA and it still returns a True for WPA and WEP.
_+WiFiNetworkGetProperty CaptiveNetwork for M9YW1 : isHidden=0, isEAP=0, isWPA=1, isWEP=1 returned NULL+_

_+AppleBCMWLANNetManager::receivedIPv4Address(): Received IP Address: entering powersave mode: 2+_

I'm curious, have you found anything else out? I'd like to hear this is just a software issue that can be corrected in an update. An update that we get hopefully soon..

Sun Studio Debugging problem

Hello
I need help configuring the Sun studio debugger to work in fedora 8. The project is loaded from a make file, compiles fine, and runs fine. However, I can not place break points, and when I start the visual debugger, it gives a message box titled progress, and hangs on saying: starting debugger: /lib/libc.so.6
Running from the command line gives me:

I have another problem in debugging an mpi problem in another installation of Sun Studio on Solaris 10 on a Sun machine. The visual debugger is working fine there, however, I need to debug with mpirun
to decide the number of processors, because by default it loads the application on one processor. Iwill need to do this as well later on the linux machine I am using now, which doesn't even start the debugger on a sequential code so far.
I appreciate your help a lot.
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi
Thank you for your reply. you said 2 problems,Yes, basically I meant these two:
1. dbx: warning: unknown location expression code (0xe0)
2. dbx: panic: "ThreadAgent::setup_helper"(): Assertion (ta_td_agent) failed - "thread.cc":2674
First one should be fixed in dbx itself, but the second looks like an incompatibility between Fedora's libc and dbx; unless distros in "supported" list upgrade to the same version of libc, dbx can't be changed to match it.
In other words, I'm sorry to say that you will probably not succeed in using dbx on Fedora 8 for the time being.

Debugging data flow

Hi,
I know that in BI 3.X version we have update rule and transfer rule.
In BI 7 we have transformations and DTP.
In 3.X u2013 Data comes to PSA and then goes to Infosource and reaches the data target via Infopackage.
In BI 7 u2013 Data comes to PSA via Infopackage and from there goes to data target by DTP which executes the transformations.
There should be an ABAP program to execute the above data flow.
All I want to know the name of the program and how the 3.X data flow & 7 data flow process can be debugged? Because as the debugging gives more opportunity to understand the process better.

RSA3 - Zfield not populating with data.In debugging data is there in BADI

Hello,
Added a new Z field to datasource 0CRM_SRV_PROCESS_H.
Everything Activated in RSA6 and everything is fine.
Code writeen in BADI CRM_BWA_MFLOW.We checked while debugging the field is getting populated when we modified the internal table CT_DATA data.
But when we run the RSA3 and check the data the field is there but data is not coming and its coming is blank.
Everything checked and it looks fine.Request response if someone can guide the reason or the cause that is missed out.
Thanks,

Debugging data load from ODS to InfoCube?

Hi Expert,
I got some errors when I load data from ODS to Cube. I tried to simulate the load, but I got No data in PSA table. I checked mt Infopakage, it is only update Datatarget directly. How can I debug in this situation. I have only that choice "Data Target only" How can I select update Cube through PSA? Thanks in advance!
Weidong

Hi robert,
Thanks for your reply! Do I have to delete the old one? It looks like that system generated two Infopackages - One is full update and another one is Initial update. I think that I have to delete both of them and re-created both, right? Thanks a lot!

Sun jce pkcs7 data encryption

Hi,
I want to be able to generate a pkcs7 with encrypted data. The data is encrypted using 3DES and the symmetric keys used are encrypted with RSA in the PKCS7.
I tried to do it with Sun jce but I can only encrypt the file with either RSA or symmetric keys.
I'm using sun jdk 1.5 as the former ones didn't seem to have RSA encryption included in them.
I know that you can do it with other providers but I'd like to do it with the sun JCE.
Anyone has an idea ?
thanks
regards

My point is, you don't know what mode/padding either end is using. You do know (or at least should strongly suspect) that the defaults don't match.
Another hint: "Given block is not mutiple of 8". That implies to me that whichever side is returning that error, isn't padding AT ALL. The whole point to padding is to fill the last block FOR YOU, so you don't have to pre-block your plaintext to match the blocksize of the algorithm.
When you happen to transmit exactly the right-sized output, no padding gets used on either side, and it All Just Works. The other 7/8's of the time, padding is used on one side but not the other, and things DON'T work. That, at least, would be my guess.
I gave up using the defaults for algorithms for this very reason - you never know what the developer of your crypto-lib decided was the "most reasonable" set of options. Always specify algorithm/node/padding, and you won't have to guess anymore...

Patch #232, CR041488 seems to address this:
GWTDOMAIN connection problem when maxfiles kernel parm set > 32K
Perhaps the Cluster Agent sets a higher ulimit when it runs.
See if you are running the latest patch.

Any thoughts?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
This could indicate a network or DNS problem. Has something recently changed in the deployment environment?
Other things to check:
Any errors in the other logs? (admin log, watcher log, etc.)
Are all Calendar processes running?
Has anything crashed and/or left a core file?
Have you tried stopping and restarting the server?

Huge debugging binaries after switching from C++ Sun Studio 11 to 12u1

Hello
I changed the compiler in our C++ project from Sun Studio 11 to Sun Studio 12u1 (12u3 is currently not available).
The only change on the command line I had to do was replacing -xarch=v9 with -m64.
The command line now is "CC -c -g -features=rtti -mt -KPIC -w -staticlib=Cstd,Crun -m64 ...".
Our static libraries are now 50% bigger, the executables are 10x bigger (200 MB to now 2 GB!!!).
This also affected the debugger sessions, they are slow and the print statement only produces internal errors.
I think this is due to the size of the binaries.
Please help to reduce the binary size.
Best regards
Hans

The debug data format changed between Studio 11 and 12u1 from Sun stabs to the industry-standard dwarf format. (The Studio 12u1 C++ Users Guide is incorrect where it says stabs is the default format.)
The change in debug format has two consequences:
1. Debug data is typically 10-15% larger, due to increased information about the program being available (a major reason for the change).
2. Whereas stabs data resides in the .o files with only index information in the executable program, all the dwarf data is copied into the executable. With dwarf, you can fully debug the program without access to the .o files that make up the program.
To verify this reason for the larger binaries, try building your program using Studio 11, adding the -xs option. This option causes the stabs to be copied into the executable program. You should find the binaries are similar in size compared to building with Studio 12u1. If this is not the case, we'll need to dig deeper.
You can revert to using stabs by adding the option -xdebugformat=stabs to every compile and link command (CC or cc).
In a future version of Studio, we plan to provide an option to leave dwarf data in the .o files with only index information in the executable, so that you can have a smaller executable when you don't mind requiring access to the .o files in order to debug.
By the way, we do not recommend static linking of libCstd and libCrun. Unless you have a particular reason for linking the static libraries, we recommend the default dynamic linking.
