Super Duper Damages Shared Components

After losing a hard drive on my 1.67 gh Pbook w 2 gigs ram, running 10.4.11 I'm using Super Duper to back-up the drive. I've created a bootable back-up on a FW800 external drive. Everytime I use Super Duper to back-up the drive, it damages Photoshop CS3 which won't launch. I have to re-install and it tells me it's currently repairing shared components. No other apps have problems after a backup, and I don't have any Pshop problem until I backup. I tried using Carbon Copy Cloner and got the same results, so it doesn't appear to be the backup app. The thing that's most confusing to me is why Pshop would be messed up on the laptop's HD, which was being duped?
Any ideas?

I've been using Superduper to clone my main drive to do testing and have had absolutely no problems with SD at all. And I've been doing this all summer. so its not the software.

Can i reconnect a "super duper" clone to "time machine" as original?

hi there.
i've recently upgraded the hard drive on my mbp 17, using super duper for cloning my stuff onto the new hd.
only later i've discovered that using the same hd name doesn't mean time machine recognizes it as the same, root hd.
i already slap myself endlessly for this naive mistake, as now i can only back my hd as another hd, multiplying the space and duration the backup requires.. still didn't let it go through.
i have no real experience using the terminal, and since i didn't find any result online relating exactly to my situation, i can't readily try to perform any suggestion i've already found, for the risk of damaging something permanently.
more info - leopard; time machine hd is accessible, as is the backed up info on it when reached through time machine.
i only need a solution for making the new hard drive be accepted by time machine as the old one.
thanx in advance,
yaneev

thx for the answer, i've actually read that article before.
no, i didn't start a new BU sequence, as i'm totally insecure even opening terminal.
by reformatting the HD i would lose months of mail backups etc.
i did take care of periodically manual BUs of important stuff,
so now i guess i just dont get the eventual purpose of TM..
sometimes it feels sad to be lost somewhere between being a very advanced mac user and being just a newbie without a clue of how to mess things up...

Issue with Shared Components - Report Layouts Download

After my isp provider upgraded from APEX 3.2.1 to 4.0, I am now unable to go into the Shared Components -> Report Layouts section and access an existing report to download my rtf template. Is there another way to go and get this out of the database. I need to update a report layout that is old and I do not have a backup of the original report and do not want to spend the time to recreate.
Thanks,
Mark

If you have TOAD, or if you can install it, by connecting to your database you will be able to access your report layout via the Schema Browser. The whole path should be "All Schemas -> APEX_040000 -> Tables -> WWV_FLOW_REPORT_LAYOUTS". In that table you will find you report layout. Double click on it and copy/paste it into a text editor.
Note: You might need to be granted some rights to access the 400+ tables of the APEX_040000 schema. Or if you have a DBA, ask him to do this for you.
Of course, if you don't want to install TOAD, I bet you could query that table from the SQL Commands of the SQL Workshop, but you would again need the rights to access said table.
Best regards,
Mathieu

Images uploaded in Shared Components not displaying

We recently installed version 4.2.1 on a new dedicated server. The entire setup went through without error.
The default images found in apex (/i/apex/builder/ etc.) are all visible. But when we upload any image through Shared Components > Images do not show on screen. An entry is available in the report on the Images page but the image itself is blank. The URL of the image is shown as : "+http://hostname:port/apex/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=100000&p_flow_id=100&p_fname=Sampleimage.jpg+". The image is available in the wwv_flow_file_objects$ table and can be viewed through the BLOB_CONTENT column. But it is not visible in the front end.
Is there a solution to this issue?
Thanks,
Aniket

How do I restore a new Hard drive from Super Duper clone ?

The Hard Drive in my 2010 iMac died and was replaced with a new one. Thankfully I have a clone made with Super Duper of the old drive. Do I just clone back on to the new internal drive ? The new drive, installed by Apple has OS10.6.8 installed on it now (by Apple ), which is the OS on the clone. Do I need to completely wipe the drive before restoring with my clone ? All that's on the new drive is the OS. Don't want to make any mistakes here.....

1. Boot from your install DVD or Bootable Clone and open Disk Utility.
2. Highlight the new HD in the list of drives and select the Partition tab.
3. Under Volume Scheme select 1 Partition and click on the Options... button.
4. Select GUID Partition Table in the drop down window and click OK.
5. Set the Format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Apply button.
6. Once thats done then you can do a clean Install, restore from TM or the Bootable Clone.

I just put a solid state hard drive in my mac book pro and used super duper to copy the hard drive and move the data over to thew new ssd, but most of my music isn't in iTunes when I turned it on? How do I get my music to show up in my new drive?

Many thanks lllaass,
The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.

How to Clear Cache for an Old Static File in Shared Components

Hello,
I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.23, HTTP Server with mod_plsql, and Oracle Database 10.2.0.5.0.
My situation is as follow:
I have a CSS static file in the shared components that is used in different applications. I recently modified the CSS file, but the changes are not reflected in my applications.
I tried clearing the cache of my browsers, deleting the file from shared components and creating a new one with the same name, and nothing is working.
Using Firebug, I can see that the file used in my pages is the old version of it. Anyone can tell me if the server is caching the file and how can I clear it?
Thank you for your help,
Erick

What kind of document is it (e.g. is this a parsed
HTML file, or a static file)? have you adjusted your
cache settings with the nsfc.conf file? have you
enabled the nsfc report? Are the files stored on NFS
volumes?
Regardless, you can force the cache to be flushed by
enabling the nsfc report, and then accessing the URI
like so:
/nsfc?restart
See the Performance and Tuning Guide:
http://docs.sun.com/source/817-1836-10/perftune.html#w
p17232I tried to to do this. Did n't worked. /nsfc?restart is not working for me. I have IPlanet 6.1 Webserver version. Without having any backend server running, I am getting JSPs displayed from cache!! Please help me out.

Non-application specific static files not visible in shared components

Hello,
We recently upgraded to APEX 4.0.2.00.07. In the past we have uploaded a number of static files with no specific application linked to them.
Now, when I search on these files using Shared Components -> Static Files, I don't find them back.
But, if I directly query the view APEX_WORKSPACE_FILES (using the APEX schema owner), I see all the files. They have APPLICATION_ID = 0 and APPLICATION_NAME is empty.
Is this a bug? I couldn't reproduce this with newly added static files, whether I specify an application or not.

Owen:
Excellent idea/perspective...I did not think of that. Each of our forms/screens has a seperate class file. Each class file has a CreateForm() routine that is called when an instance of the class is intiated behind the menu selection.
Here is a block of code In Main.vb I use to execute a menu selection:
Case "MPA"
'8/30/07 EJD - Work Order Parameters Screen
   If GetFormCount(G_MPAMaint_Form_Type).ToString = "0" Then
           Dim MPAForm As New MPA
           BubbleEvent = False
    Else
           UpdateStatus("Another MPA maintenance screen is already open", SAPbouiCOM.BoStatusBarMessageType.smt_Error)
           BubbleEvent = False
    End If
So, I can utilize this code in the case statement where I was doing the ActivateMenu if I hear you right. Now, can you help me with how I would pass the
variables instead of making them Public Shared in the Main class? Or is it ok to expose them that way?
I Appreciate the help,
Ed

Shared Components Images Create Image does not work

Super Duper help on unresponsive Macbook

Hello, I've already posted before and nobody has responded. Let me ask one of the questions I could really use answered and hopefully people can help. So I am having a major HD issue and disk utility (booting from the install disk, can't even get past grey screen with apple logo and spinning wheel) says I have a verify or repair failure: Invalid Node structure. I have tried PRAM/NVRAM reset, Verbose, and safe mode, to no avail. I just would like to know if this Super Duper HD copying program will allow me to make a copy of my HD and save the info, then I'll just whip the disk and start new. I am having a hard time understanding how it can work unless your computer is working itself, which mine is not. How can I download the program if I can't even use my computer? How can I load it up on my computer if it does't even work? All I want to do is get a copy of my HD's contents or even specific files onto my backup drive, but I can't figure it out. I've already tried Restore on Disk Utility from the install disk, but has varying levels of not working. Sometimes my Macintosh HD is greyed out and won't even let me add it to the boxes on the right to make a copy, other times it does, but then won't let me add the destination drive (my backup drive). This whole thing is just killing me. I just got a backup drive for a christmas present and was going to backup everything, but then my Macbook went on the fritz. All I want to do is make a backup of my HD anyway I can. After that, I don't care, but I need my stuff. Any help would be appreciated in advance, thank you.

I have read these posts and have a comment. If your computer is running slower than it used to and you are running the same apps as you used to and your hard drive is NOT over 90% full then the problem is NOT being caused by having too little RAM. The RAM does not shrink. If all things are the same but it is now running slower then there is some other reason than lack of RAM. RAM is expensive enough that it is a real shame to buy more if it has nothing to do with the underlying performance problem.
Clean caches with Onyx. Do all the other maintenance with Onyx. Run PreferentialTreatment. Reset PRAM. Boot from your external hard drive that you have cloned a copy of your main drive onto. You do have a clone of the main drive don't you?
A cloned copy of your hard drive is invaluable for trouble shooting and the day may very likely come that you will be extremely grateful that you spent the dollars for one. It is so easy to clone your hard drive and then to clone the external back to the internal if need be. Everything will be just how you left it. Far simpler and more effective than making a copy of your User folder and then reinstalling the OS from the DVD. The later can take many hours and much work to get things the way you had them. Cloning is virtually effortless.

Report Query wizard error (in Shared Components)

I have been following the <a target="_window" href="http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_master_detail_pdf.html">How-To Create a Master-Detail PDF Report</a> 
 
I'm using Apex 3.01 and Firefox 2.0.0.7 
 
When I have to create a Report Query in the shared components, I get through the wizard to the Create Report Query Layout page and for some reason, the Previous and Next buttons don't work. The only button that works is the Cancel button. 
It seems to happen after I've downloaded the sample XML file from that page. 
I've also noticed this happens when you go in to edit an existing Report Query and take a download of the XML... 
On closer inspection it seems to be the buttons that have onclick="javascript:doSubmit..." behind them that don't work. Buttons with javascript:confirmDelete seem to still be active and work ok. 
 
But, the problem doesn't happen in IE7. 
 
I found this happened on both my local installation and on my apex.oracle.com instance. 
 
Has anyone else had this behavior or is this some dodgy local setting I have wrong? 
 
Gus..

Shared Components APEX Report Query and Layout

Does anyone know how to call the report query and layout from the Shared components section from a page within the application?

mtbdude40 wrote:
What I need is this: The ability to create a PDF report with a custom header defining the data (example - select * from emp where deptno = :deptno and the header includes the department name).
I use this white paper as my source: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/learnmore/custom-pdf-reports-1953918.pdf
You need to build and use a Shared Resource -> Report Queries.
The Report Query will have two queries associated with it (see below).
one query will be for the header information, the other will be for the data.
use the "download" of the "xml data" as your source for Altova/other tools.
If you add/remove/change queries, You'll have to redo your report (from scratch) as that changes the XML Schema required. (at least, with my experience)
Once you get the hang of it, 2x queries is easy (Header, data)
I've experimented with 3x queries (header, master,details) but have been unsuccessful. I have some ideas though ("link" master->detail info via XPath stuff within Altova) but haven't gotten around to testing it.
If you want to run the report for multiple departments....That might require some finesse.
Unfortunately, the Source of the Queries can't be a scalar SQL that returns 1 row of 1 column of data type XMLType....

Shared Components - Comments - which View?

I am trying to find which APEX view holds the field for Shared Components - Comments. On the Shared Components page, there is a COMMENTS link. Which APEX view stores those comments? It seems like it would be stored in APEX_APPLICATIONS view, but i don't see the comments field there.

Accessing images from shared components

I am having problem finding out images from shared components. After loading my images from my desktop to shared components folder, when i try to create an image item, and click the browse button, it pulls out my hard drive for selection. i don't know how to get the images already in shared components. i read in the help file that if i know the name of the image, then i can write it down and portal will pull it out. but what if i don't remember. do i have to go to shared components to find what it is and then come back and write it in the textbox?how to get to shared components clicking browse and selecting the image we want which is already stored in portal?
thanks
valli

There's no way to browse and select the images in shared components. You need to know the URL to the image if you want to reference it in an item.
