SunStudio Newbie: Installed OK (as root), but cannot run as regular user

All,
Just installed SS12.1 with patches successfully on a box with root. Can execute various
progs (CC, make, etc) as root OK. However when running as a regular user I get permission denied errorsor command not found errors. The path is set correctly (/usr/bin is part of the path).
What am I missing here - must be something simple, I'm sure...
Cheers,
Bonny

Igor,
Thanks for the reply, I've managed to sort it earlier - it turned out the directory it was installed into did not allow regular user/world execute access - only root's.
I've used the package installer btw, if it makes it useful for other people stumbling on this.
Cheers,
Bonny

The situation with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 and version earlier than it (in particular 3.0/3.0.2) is disturbing with regard to MPEG2 Activation.
Adobe document says that it no longer supports MPEG2 Activation for versions 8.0/8.0.1 and earlier and points the users of this group of products to a version later than 8.0/8.0.1, the current latest version 12.
But, I am not sure of the real answer. The doubts are cast by the findings of some who have claimed to have solved the problem using a uninstall/ccleaner/reinstall scheme when they have been met by the MPEG2 Activation issue.
But, I would ask....Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your Windows 7 64 bit computer? And, are you working with version 3.0 as the 3.0.2 Update?
Is it still possible to run your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2 on the prior computer on which it was installed?
Also, does your Windows 7 64 bit come with Windows XP Mode
Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
which is essentially a virtual Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit.
As last resort, and highly experimental, but would you have time to experiment by replacing your latest version of QuickTime with the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1 and then determining what happens with your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2 Windows 7 64 bit situation? Do not bother with the MPEG Streamclip program download, just the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1.

Please review, consider, and do what you feel comfortable with. We will be watching for your progress.

I want to re-install Premiere Elelments 8, but cannot find downloads for version 8. Where can I download the files for version 8?

I want to re-install Premiere Elelments 8, but cannot find downloads for version 8. I have the serial no. Where can I download the files for version 8?

Hi Jeff. I did purchase Premiere Elements 8 from Adobe (download version), but couldn't find the files to download again on the adobe.com website. I did, however carry out another search of files from my old PC and eventually found the files to reinstall on my new PC, using my registered product serial no. Installation has worked. It seems that Adobe has stopped supporting version 8 as I could only find version 9 and later for download from the adobe.com website.
Thanks for your prompt reply

I might be doing some programming for my company soon
which will require a program to monitor a database
and whenever there is a change to certain fields, it
must copy certain fields into another database. When I see "whenever thiere is a change to certain fields" I tend to think "triggers" - but maybe this won't work for you 'cause of the "another database" part. And the fact that triggers are inherently evil.

Is it possible to run a Java program as a windows
service? And if so then how would you go about it? I'd hit Google - there're a couple ways to do this.
[snip]
Also,...if I were to use one of those programs which
can make an .exe of a Java program, then do you still
require the JRE to be on the machine? It depends on how you did the conversion. If you compile to native then no, if you just wrap up a JRE then yes.
Why I ask is
that I occasionally get asked to do small development
projects for my company, but we are a microsoft
partner and therefore do all the development in C#
and the like. So I would like to just implement as
many things in Java as I can, just to show everyone
that Java can do exactly what C# can do. But its
difficult to convince people of this since I always
require the JRE and they dont. Of course, they require the .NET framework and you don't. And last I looked that thing was around 23 Meg.

Can compile but cannot run.

Dear Java Guru,
Wish to find out why I can compile but cannot run. I encounter the following error: 'Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/media/jai/JAI
at saveasone.<init>(saveasone.java:29)
at saveasone.main(saveasone.java:21)'
This does not happen on one PC but happened on another PC.
The one can compile is XP, the other which cannot compile is Win2k Professional. Is there any other possible cause ?
Please advise.

The problem probably lies in the Classpath. I think you are using different environments for compiling and running. If you are using an IDE for developing your code, you might have set the classpath correctly there but not in the executing environment. As about the OS's you mentioned, I think the problem is still with your Environment Settings than OS settings.

Installed Netweaver 2004s SP7 but cannot access any tools

I have successfully Installed Netweaver 2004s SP7 Java version but cannot access any of the tool sets. When I try the URL's localhost:50100/irj or localhost:50100/caf it takes me to the initial screen. When I click on any of the tabs (example: Guided Procedures followed by Design time) everything is blank. If I type the URL localhost:50100/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/cafeugpuidt/AppWorkset it takes me to the design time but when I click on anything to create actions or processes, I get the error message "The Web Dynpro 'AppWorkset' Application has expired.

My goal is to play with Guided Procedures. Is EP the only way to access design time and runtime or are there other ways?

Ok in appletviewer, but cannot run in a brower, due to JLabel, why?

hi, there,
i pop up a window from my applet, using Jframe, and in it is a Jlabel showing some texts.
now i can run it w/o problem when using appletviewer. but when i test it from a brower, like IE, it cannot run, the error message is like: cannot find javax.swing.JLabel class.
what is wrong with it? thank you very much for your help.

The problem is that the browser is compatible with java 1.1.x, not 1.2 or later with swing. So if you use any of the new classes, the browser doesn't know about them.
With the latest browser version, you can use java 1.2 or later (by downloading and installing java runtime environment). To make it work in older browsers, you need to modify your html page so it uses jre as a plugin. That means ppl still need to download and install a jre (if not included in the latest browser versions) to run your applet.

JRE 1.5 plugin for Firefox on Linux works as root but not as an other user

I am trying to usel the JRE plugin for Firefox on Fedora Core 4. I downloaded and installed it as "root" and created the symbolic link so Firefox can "see" it. It now works just fine if I run Firefox as "root", but if I run it as any other user, it thinks that the plugin is not installed.
I checked to make sure that the path to the symbolic link is accessible by anyone (all directories in the path are x to "other" and the link and the .so file are both rx for "other").
What else do I need to do so non-root users can use this plugin?

remove $HOME/.mozilla/plugins and $HOME/.java and try again

[SOLVED] Cannot run kdenlive as user

Does anyone else have the problem of running kdenlive as a regular user? I can run it as root, but not as a user. I have the same problem as this thread:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=110402
Any clues? (FWIW, I tried the svn version of kdenlive from AUR with the same issue.)
Last edited by mrunion (2011-02-19 01:18:02)

I found the problem. If I use the Oxygen-Transparent theme, kdenlive cannot run. If I use the regular Oxygen theme, all is well. Go figure!

[SOLVED] Installing on ZFS root: "ZFS: cannot find bootfs" on boot.

I have been experimenting with ZFS filesystems on external HDDs for some time now to get more comfortable with using ZFS in the hopes of one day reinstalling my system on a ZFS root.
Today, I tried installing a system on an USB external HDD, as my first attempt to install on ZFS (I wanted to try in a safe, disposable environment before I try this on my main system).
My partition configuration (from gdisk):
Command (? for help): p
Disk /dev/sdb: 3907024896 sectors, 1.8 TiB
Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 2FAE5B61-CCEF-4E1E-A81F-97C8406A07BB
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 3907024862
Partitions will be aligned on 8-sector boundaries
Total free space is 0 sectors (0 bytes)
Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name
1 34 2047 1007.0 KiB EF02 BIOS boot partition
2 2048 264191 128.0 MiB 8300 Linux filesystem
3 264192 3902828543 1.8 TiB BF00 Solaris root
4 3902828544 3907024862 2.0 GiB 8300 Linux filesystem
Partition #1 is for grub, obviously. Partition #2 is an ext2 partition that I mount on /boot in the new system. Partition #3 is where I make my ZFS pool.
Partition #4 is an ext4 filesystem containing another minimal Arch system for recovery and setup purposes. GRUB is installed on the other system on partition #4, not in the new ZFS system.
I let grub-mkconfig generate a config file from the system on partition #4 to boot that. Then, I manually edited the generated grub.cfg file to add this menu entry for my ZFS system:
menuentry 'ZFS BOOT' --class arch --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
load_video
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
set root='hd0,gpt2'
echo 'Loading Linux core repo kernel ...'
linux /vmlinuz-linux zfs=bootfs zfs_force=1 rw quiet
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
My ZFS configuration:
# zpool list

External2TB/PacmanCache 5.77G 1.77T 5.77G /var/cache/pacman/pkg
External2TB/Swap 8.50G 1.78T 20K -
The reason for the above configuration is that after I get this system to work, I want to install a second system in the same zpool on a different dataset, and have them share a pacman cache.
GRUB "boots" successfully, in that it loads the kernel and the initramfs as expected from the 2nd GPT partition. The problem is that the kernel does not load the ZFS:
ERROR: device '' not found. Skipping fsck.
ZFS: Cannot find bootfs.
ERROR: Failed to mount the real root device.
Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck.
and I am left in busybox in the initramfs.
What am I doing wrong?
Also, here is my /etc/fstab in the new system:
# External2TB/ArchSystemMain
#External2TB/ArchSystemMain / zfs rw,relatime,xattr 0 0
# External2TB/PacmanCache
#External2TB/PacmanCache /var/cache/pacman/pkg zfs rw,relatime,xattr 0 0
UUID=8b7639e2-c858-4ff6-b1d4-7db9a393578f /boot ext4 rw,relatime 0 2
UUID=7a37363e-9adf-4b4c-adfc-621402456c55 none swap defaults 0 0
I also tried to boot using "zfs=External2TB/ArchSystemMain" in the kernel options, since that was the more logical way to approach my intention of having multiple systems on different datasets. It would allow me to simply create separate grub menu entries for each, with different boot datasets in the kernel parameters. I also tried setting the mount points to "legacy" and uncommenting the zfs entries in my fstab above. That didn't work either and produced the same results, and that was why I decided to try to use "bootfs" (and maybe have a script for switching between the systems by changing the ZFS bootfs and mountpoints before reboot, reusing the same grub menuentry).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sounds like a zpool.cache issue. I'm guessing your zpool.cache inside your arch-chroot is not up to date. So on boot the ZFS hook cannot find the bootfs. At least, that's what I assume the issue is, because of this line:
ERROR: device '' not found. Skipping fsck.
If your zpool.cache was populated, it would spit out something other than an empty string.
Some assumptions:
- You're using the ZFS packages provided by demizer (repository or AUR).
- You're using the Arch Live ISO or some version of it.
On cursory glance your configuration looks good. But verify anyway. Here are the steps you should follow to make sure your zpool.cache is correct and up to date:
Outside arch-chroot:
- Import pools (not using '-R') and verify the mountpoints.
- Make a copy of the /etc/zfs/zpool.cache before you export any pools. Again, make a copy of the /etc/zfs/zpool.cache before you export any pools. The reason for this is once you export a pool the /etc/zfs/zpool.cache gets updated and removes any reference to the exported pool. This is likely the cause of your issue, as you would have an empty zpool.cache.
- Import the pool containing your root filesystem using the '-R' flag, and mount /boot within.
- Make sure to copy your updated zpool.cache to your arch-chroot environment.
Inside arch-chroot:
- Make sure your bootloader is configured properly (i.e. read 'mkinitcpio -H zfs').
- Use the 'udev' hook and not the 'systemd' one in your mkinitcpio.conf. The zfs-utils package does not have a ported hook (as of 0.6.2_3.12.6-1).
- Update your initramfs.
Outside arch-chroot:
- Unmount filesystems.
- Export pools.
- Reboot.
Inside new system:
- Make sure to update the hostid then rebuild your initramfs. Then you can drop the 'zfs_force=1'.
Good luck. I enjoy root on ZFS myself. However, I wouldn't recommend swap on ZFS. Despite what the ZoL tracker says, I still ran into deadlocks on occasion (as of a month ago). However, I cannot say definitely the cause of the issue; but it resolved when I moved swap off ZFS to a dedicated partition.

I just installed the Airport utility but cannot see it on my iPad.

I have looked in every folder, restarted my iPad but I cannot find it. The App store shows the app is installed.

You can do a search for it on the iPad - at least when you find it - you can set it up and use it until you locate the icon.
Swipe to the right from the home screen and the search feature appears. Type the name of the app in the text field at the top and then tap on the app icon when it shows up to launch the app.
You can connect your iPad to your computer, launch iTunes, select your iPad on the left side and then click on the apps tab and look at all of the screens on the iPad in there - maybe it is on another screen that is beyond what you can get to by swiping.
You restarted but you could also try resetting the iPad and see if the app shows up.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Installed update of Firefox, but cannot drag into applications folder, it indicates that "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges", so how can I complete the install?

I try to drag the app into the applications folder where an old app of firefox exists and it asks me if I want to replace it and after i say yes it gives me the operation cannot be completed message.

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

Installed Safari but cannot run!!!

I installed Safari but when I attempt to open it, it will not stay open. It closes in less than 30 seconds. I have removed it and then reinstalled the software but it does not run. I have been running Safari on another windows computer with XP Pro without any problems.

Backup your prefs, cookies and any other fragment that is in your user account used by Apple Safari, some are hidden, that should fix the problem. You can then import your bookmarks if needed.
