System Cache Issues with Windows Server 2008R2

Hi,
I'm trying to deploy Java version 1.5.0 (build 1.5.0_14-b03) on a new Windows Server 2008R2 installation. I want to use the system cache feature and have used it successfully on Windows XP workstations and Windows 2003 servers in the past. I even got it to work on a test Win Server 2008R2 server earlier this week. But on my production machine I can't get the system cache to configure.
I installed Java as usual and it installed into the Program Files(x86) directory. I copied my deployment files to the c:\windows\sun\java\deployment directory.
Deployment.config contains:
deployment.system.config=file\:/c\:/windows/sun/java/deployment/deployment.properties
Deployment.properties contains:
deployment.user.cachedir=C\:\\Program Files\\HCN
deployment.user.cachedir.locked
deployment.system.cachedir=C\:\\Program Files\\HCN
deployment.javaws.shortcut="NEVER"
deployment.javaws.autodownload="NEVER"
Not sure what's missing here especially since it worked fine the other day.
Both of these servers are virtual, VMware ESX 3.5 and were created from the same template. Only real difference is the production system will be a XenApp application server so it has XenApp installed.
Error I'm getting is that in Javaws it reports that the system cache is not configured and every time I launch my application it has to download from the source because we are deleting the local profiles when the user logs out.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Linn

No.
You could even use HP-UX on the DEV system - as long as you're able to share a common directory to ensure transporting it's not a problem. Transports are OS and DB independent.
However, memory management and security in Windows 2008 changed significantly, you may have to use different configurations for W2K8 vs. W2K3.

Mavericks permission issues with Windows Server deduplicated shares.

We have a number of 10.9-10.9.3 - Mavericks - machines installed throughout our facility. Much of the user content is pulled from shares stored on our Windows Server 2012 fileservers with deduplication enabled. I have found that files newly written or unoptimized are able to be accessed without issue - read, written, modified, etc. Once the file gets optomized/deduplicated and Windows adds the P & L attributes - sparse and symlink - the Macs running Mavericks begin to have access issues.
Once the files get deduplicated, users begin receiving read access errors when copying files (see error1 below). This happens when copying to folders within the current folder tree or copying somewhere to the local system. If you 'stop' the copy operation and retry a few more times, it may eventually work for the specific instance but fail again later. I am however, able to copy these files without issue via the terminal.
Other systems running 10.7 do not experience the same issues and are able to access file server resources without issue. Many of the systems having issues are newer and thus not able to be downgraded to 10.8 or 10.7.
I have tried finder replacements such as Pathfinder but the results are the same. I know this is at least similar to the issues many Mac users are already experiencing and posting about but I haven't seen it directly linked to deduplication and the attributes written by Windows server. Has anyone seen this issue? Have any solutions been found?
Error 1:
When copying files after the PL attributes have been set by deduplication.
"One or more items can't be copied to "Foler" because you don't have permissions to read them.
Via the system.log, I am also seeing the following error when accessing these deduplicated file shares. The reparse point tag listed below is "IO_REPARSE_TAG_DEDUP"
Reported error:
"smbfs_nget: filename.ext - unknown reparse point tag 0x80000013"

This is a 'known problem' as discussed on the MacWindows site, see http://www.macwindows.com/More-on-OS-X-conflicts-with-Windows-Server-Deduplicati on.html
It appears to still affect Mavericks 10.9.5 at least from the lack of any positive reports to the contrary. It is perhaps a bit late but it would have been worth signing up for the public beta of Yosemite and testing that and if needed reporting it as an issue for Yosemite as this will be getting more bug fix attention than Mavericks now.
I would agree turning off de-duplication is not a desirable solution, however other possibilities to consider are installing the standard Samba software on a Mac and using that instead of Apple's SMBx software. This is done by using the SMBup installer See http://eduo.info/2013/07/13/smbup-faq it does not officially list Mavericks but I did see at least one report that it still worked. A second possibility is to install ExtremeZ-IP which installs an AFP server on to your Windows Server and also gives the bonus of supporting Spotlight searches.
Note: You should only try SMBup on a test setup first.

Weird issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 Print Server

I have an issue with Windows 2008 R2 (VMWare Hosted) running Windows Print Server.
Prior to a small network change, the print server was working well, hosting about 80 different networked printers from various vendors.
We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers). The DNS servers never quite worked right and broke AD authentication to different servers, and was just a mess.
After rolling back we are not able to keep the printers online. If we ping them from the print server, the printer(s) never wake up, when a print job is submitted. If we ping them from one of the access switches, they work fine (until they fall back asleep),
to prevent this, if we start a ping on the server AFTER waking them up from the Switch Ping, they stay online and no problems.
If we stop the ping, they fall back asleep at some point, and again, won't wake up without intervention/switch side ping.
Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any tips on how I could possibly resolve it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, the issue seems to be that the printers can't keep online. Sounds like a power managerment issue. Why these printers fall into sleep? Have you consulted this issue with the manufacturer of these printers? Do these printers
fall into sleep if them lose the contact with printer server? Have you tried to reset the printers?
>>We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers).
DNS client will cache the recently queried records. If the DNS server has replied with a wrong records, communication issues will occur. To clear the DNS cache on a Windows device, please run the command below:
ipconfig /flushdns

Issues with Windows Server 2008

Hi,
   I am facing a issue with my PROD and DEVE systems. Initially I installed ECC6 SR3 on PROD with Windows Server 2008 and only ABAP stack as JAVA stack is not fully supported. Now I am planning to install DEVE server with Windows 2003 in which I will have both ABAP and JAVA stacks.
   I just wanted to know whether there will be any sort of communication or support issues between PROD and DEVE systems with such diverse configurations.
   Awaiting replies.

Licensing issue with Windows Server 2012 R2 Essential

Hi,
we purchased a server that came with Windows Server 2012 Essentials. and we found out some of the issue regarding the licensing. I would like to verify it with the experts here.
1. This Essential O.S. cannot be deployed as a member server in the domain, only Windows server 2012 r2 Standard and data center is capable as deploy as a member server?
2. does it work with a single domain with multiple domain controllers and one primary domain controller? Example, 10 offices in different states, each location has a domain controller in their office, I'm installing to install this Essential server as another
domain controller in one of the offices for redundancy purpose. I promoted this server into domain controller with success, but it gives me an fsmo error everyday, and warning about shutting down if i don't transfer the fsmo role to this server.
3. which leads to this question, so this Essential OS can only be deploy as a single domain as the primary domain controller? Up to 25 user and 50 device license?
4. Is it possible to deploy it as a domain controller (that office has less than 25 users) in that office while syncing correctly with the other 10 domain controllers in other offices, they are all in the same single domain? I can't make this work, and I
think due to the Essential O.S.'s limitation.
5. we use a vpn connection to connect all the office together, and all the domain controller uses lan ip address to communicate with each other.
Thank you for the help in advance. I have been researching for the past couple days, but I still couldn't get a clear answer. Thank you again.

Hi Cliff,
Thank you for your reply.
1. We will get a new server 2012 r2 standard to deploy as member server.
2 and 3. Only ONE domain controller can hold all FSMO roles in a single domain, correct? Currently an windows 2003 enterprise, this is our first server in our domain, it holds all the FSMO roles currently.
4. Yes, we realized essentials will not work for us, so we are switching to 2012 r2 standard to deploy for the new
domain controller for our new office, still under the same domain.
5. This wasn't a question, just wanted to give out the connection information.
The problem was that We didn't read the Essentials in detail when buying the new server, on dell website, it said it was perfect for small business, we didn't know it has to run as a primary DC. it was great in price, and it doesn't need CALs.
but we quickly realized after deploying it as a DC, it gives us error about Server Licensing compliance, and will shut down automatically. Then we were going to use it as a member server to run application, and realized we couldn't. So we are returning the
server, and getting a new one with standard r2 2012 and CALs license.
It was a costly mistake.
Thank you again.

RDP audio issues with Windows Server 2008

I have a server with an M-Audio 1010LT audio card installed, running audio playback software. This software needs to stay running and playing at all times.
We were previously running Windows Server 2003 and when we RDPed into the box for maintenance, we simply made sure that 'Leave at remote computer" was selected under Remote Desktop's sound settings. This allowed us to control the console of the server while the audio continued to play through the server's audio card.
Now, with Windows Server 2008, even with this option selected when we remote into this server all audio stops and Windows shows no available audio devices. If I end my RDP session and phyically go to the server, I see the audio devices and am able to re-start the audio playback.
Is this a bug, or something that has changed in 2008? Any workarounds?
Thanks

Windows 8.1 RDP Issues with Windows Server 2008 Standard.

I have an issue maintaining an RDP connection from 64-bit windows 8.1 (standard and pro) to 32-bit Windows Server 2008 Standard. Initial connection is normal, and as long as I am constantly typing on the link, for the most part it stays up. However
if I do not keep typing, or go to another desktop program for a few minutes, and then go back, the following happens:
If I am typing into notepad (or some screen that does not require windows to be refreshed) I can continue to do so, so the connection has not been lost, however if I try to do something that requires more extensive exchange of information (like file
- open, or even trying to pull up the start menu), the connection pauses with about half the screen refreshed, sometimes after about 30 seconds a bit more of the screen fills out, but otherwise the connection is not responsive. Then after about 2 minutes,
RDP reconnects, at which point I am back to "normal". I have conducted some tests and made inquiries of others attempting to connect to the server.
1) I can connect to other Windows (servers 2008 R2 and 2012) with no connection issues from this PC
2) I can connect to the 32-bit server with no issues using Windows Vista Ultimate and Windows 7 from the same location as the WIndows 8.1 PC
3) When I do a network speed test while having these issues I see full download and upload speeds, so I am not experiencing intermittent internet issues.
4) No-one else from other locations (not of course using Windows 8.1) has any issues using RDP to the 32-bit Windows Server Standard.
These various tests seem to eliminate my network connection, and other operating systems, from the equation, and point to RDP issues on windows 8.1 connecting to the older OS. I noticed in the September updates, a case 2989039 which seemed to point
to similar issues when using UDP through Remote Desktop Gateway. That update is on my machine, and my connection has the setting Automatically detect RD Access Gateway server settings.
Any thoughts anyone?

Hi RonaldRenaud,
If my understanding is right, this RDP issue only occur in the connection between Windows 8.1 and Server 2008.
Please check if you have installed the update kb2984006.
To resolve this issue caused by update 2989039, install update rollup 2984006. For more information, please refer to the following KB.

DFRS on sysvol with windows server 2008r2 and windows server 2012r2

I currently have windows server 2008 r2 domain with forest and domain at 2008r2 full functional level.
The domain was originally 2003 full functional level.
I want to promote a windows server 2012 r2 system to a domain controller.
While doing some prep work I found that the sysvol relication has not been migrated to DFSR and is using FRS.
Will I need to migrate to DFSR before promoting the 2012 r2 DC or can that wait?
Thanks.

Hi,
To install active directory in Windows Server 2012 R2 you must just be sure that the domain functional level and forest functional level is 2003 or higher. you don't need to migrate Sysvol system replication to DFSR.
When you install the first domain controller in Windows Server 2008 or higher and choose the domain functional level 2008 or higher, the replication system used by Sysvol will be DFSR automatically.
On the other side, if you domain functional level was 2003, to apply DFSR for Sysvol replication you must raise the domain functional to 2008 or higher, and launch dfsrmig
to complete the migration t get more details look at the link below:

SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard - Compatibility issues with Windows Server 2012 R2

Hello,
We used as a test a box on which we installed Windows Server 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition. No Service pack was installed. It worked perfect.
Now we try to do it on another box and all of the sudden there is compatibility issue when we try to instal SQL Server. We can still install SQL Server by clicking "Continue without getting help".
Where can this come from? If it is hardware related what are the thing I should look at?
Thanks all

Adding to Shanky suggestion, you can perform a slipstream installation of SQL Server 2008 R2 + SP3 to make SQL Server
2008 R2 compatible with the newer operating system, as explained on the following post.

Shadow copies issues with Windows Server 2012 R2, deduplication and defragmentation

Hello,
I have a virtual Windows Server 2012 R2 with a data volume with deduplication and shadow copies enabled.
During this weekend some Windows process deleted all the shadow copies and I don't know what process has caused this issue.
After taking a look at Internet forums it seems that could be related to defragmentation process and cluster size but if I review the logs it seems that shadow copies deletion is during some deduplication optimization process (Background Optimization, WeeklyGarbageCollection
and WeeklyScrubbing) and 1 hour after defragmentation.
The related events are a lot of volsnap 33 and finishing with volsnap 36.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Ricard,
Above all, here is a long discussion about a "losing all volume shadow copy" issue:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/204e8cce-cd1f-4ca2-852e-a5f09a77c04c/volsnap-event-id-25-and-loss-of-previous-backups?forum=windowsbackup
As it mentioned, it could be caused by disk I/O. When you have high input/output traffic on the original volume, the shadow copy storage area cannot grow fast enough to hold all the copy-on-write changes. This causes deletion of all the shadow copies on the
original volume.
Deduplication will cause a high disk I/O for sure so it could be the cause of this issue.
Here are some suggestions for this issue:
a. Put the shadow copy storage on another volume, even if the volume is located on the same hard disk.
b. Make sure that the volume that causes the issue is not the same volume that contains the paging file. If it contains paging file, consider putting the paging file on another volume.
c. Make sure that the volume is not used as the shadow copy storage for any other volume.

JDK issues with Windows Server 2003 SP2 Standard Edition

Hi,
We are running an ETL (Extracts-Transform-Load) Jar file which reads data from MS Commerce Server 2002, AS400 and SQL Server 2000 database and populates a SQL Server 2000 database. The jar was running fine on Windows Server 2000 but started to stall when we are running it from our newly acquired Windows Server 2003 SP2 server class machine. The JDK version is 1.4 on Windows 2000 and 1.6 on Windows Server 2003. Interestingly, the jar is running fine via JDK 1.6 on another Windows Server 2003 dev machine.
The jar does not throw any error and we have to manually shutdown the execution of the jar.
Can anyone please suggest some solutions here?
Thank you!

Um, does this have anything to do with JavaMail? If not, you might try a more appropriate forum.

Network issues with Windows Server 2008 and MacOS

Hello there,
I believe it is a long shot, but i am running out of options. I got a video streaming server software running on my windows server 2008. It has a client that runs on MacOS and Windows. The windows client works just fine, but the macos client cannot stream
a few videos.
I've tried installing the streaming server on windows 7 and my mac client worked just fine, so I believe that win server 2008 got some sort of configuration that is blocking the correct communication between software.
Since the software devs could not tell me what's wrong or how to fix it, I thought I might get some help here (kinda of a last hope thing). I have tried installing codecs, enabling desktop experience and nothing worked.
So, here is my question: Is there anything that windows server has that windows 7 do not that might be causing this scenerio?
Thanks,
Lucas

Hi,
Have you disabled the firewall on the windows server? The firewall may block the traffic if it isn’t configured properly.
If it still doesn’t work after disabling the firewall, please install the Network Monitor on the windows server and client. Then capture the traffic of the video when the server and windows7 runs your software.
Try to compare the traffic of windows server and windows7. Find out the difference between them.
To download Network Monitor, click the link below,

Hi,
Did it work correctly before when logging in with domain user account? If so, please try opening Control Panel > Credential Manager and remove the cached credential entry of the Outlook account, and then restart Outlook to test the issue again.

Directory Caching issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows

Hi ,
I am facing cache issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows. If I do any change related to modification or deletion of contacts in Active Directory/ Callmanager, it does not reflect in the Jabber. Because jabber takes the contacts from the locally stored cache file in the Windows system.
Every time I have to remove the cache file to overcome this issue, practically it's not possible to do the same with all the Widows users. As, if any employee leaves the company and still I can see his contact appears in the "Cisco Jabber client". I have not seen this issue with Android/Apple iOS.
Is there any automated way to remove the cache file?
Here is the detail of CUCM,Presence and Jabber.
CUCM version: 9.1.x
Presence : 9.1.X
Jabber : 10.5 and 10.6

Hello
On our environment we had to install a dedicated Microsoft Certificate Authority "just for Cisco Jabber usage" to house the
Network Device Enrollment Service.
Our certificate for the CUPS were generated on this Certification Authority too.
I discussed this certificate matter with my colleagues this afternoon and nobody seems to remember how these certificates were deployed into the
Enterprise Trust store for the users.
But I think they asked all 400 users to accept the 3 certificates by answering "yes" to the popup instead of using a script deployed by GPO...
I wish you success with that deployment and really hope you have a technical partner that *Knows* this subject.
Our partner left us alone with that unfortunately.
Florent
EDIT: If the "Certutil script method" works, please let me know. This could be useful in our own deployment.
