  • Office 2013 C2R Update Scheduled Task does not work

    Hi all.
    I am having difficulty getting network deployed updates to work correctly. I installed and older version of Office 2013 with the ODT from a network share and set the update path. I then downloaded an update via ODT.
    The issue is the scheduled task does not update office. If I trigger or manually run from a command prompt "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection modeargs reschedulemode tasktrigger
    scheduledtask updateuitype background” from Task Scheduler nothing seems to happen. Monitoring Task Manager it looks like integratedoffice is called albeit very briefly.
    But, if I run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection background” from a command prompt Office updates, but if I edit the Scheduled Task to above Office does not update if the
    task is triggered.
    As Office can update if the right command is given it would appear that my config.xml etc is correct. Any ideas on why the Scheduled Task does not work?
    Cheers
    Jakes

    What permissions are set on the location of the updates ? C2R currently needs permissions granted for machine accounts as it runs under that context. This will change at some point that C2R gets updated.

  • "Set the Desktop Picture" command does not work in certain instances

    I've decided to take a try at using automator. Anyways I've created a very simple workflow.
    Get Specified Finder Items (points to an image file)
    Set the Desktop Picture
    Now this usually works when the desktop is set statically to a specified image. But when I set the desktop to change the picture periodically, the automator action fails to change the picture to the specified image, when executed.
    Is this a bug? Is there any workaround for this?

    Your workflow actually is changing the static desktop picture, it's merely failing to then switch off the "Change picture" feature.
    The "Change picture" feature has a somewhat misleading name in that it's not actually changing your static desktop picture at all. Your static desktop picture remains in place as a new dynamic picture layer is continually drawn and redrawn directly on top of it.
    I don't see any way of testing for or turning off the desktop slideshow automatically, short of writing a GUI AppleScript that opens System Preferences and clicks through to the relevant toggle setting. If you file feedback with Apple they might take a look at it.

  • Built-in wlst ant task does not work in weblogic 10.3.1

    Hi,
    We have an installer script that deploys an ear file to a weblogic managed server. The script also invokes the build-tin wlst ant task to bounce the managed server. However, in version 10.3.1 the wlst task seems to be broken. I get this error:
    [echo] [wlst] sys-package-mgr: can't create package cache dir, '/u00/webadmin/product/10.3.1/WLS/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/weblogic.jar/./java

    Obviously that is not a valid directory...so I am wondering what it is trying to do, and why. The wlst task worked perfectly in 10.3.0. No changes were made when attempting to run the script against 10.3.0 and 10.3.1, which tells me that something is different with the 10.3.1 setup. Here is the ant code I am running:

    else:

    print 'Shutting down '+serverTarget+'...'
    shutdown(serverTarget,type,'true',15,force='true')
    print serverTarget+' was shut down successfully.'
    </script>
    </wlst>
    <!-- setDomainEnv.sh must have been called to set DOMAIN_HOME. Remove all leftover .lok files to allow server

    <echo message="Deleting any lok files that have not been removed..." />
    <delete failonerror="false">

    </catch>

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Well, it looks like passing something like "-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp/javatmp/`date +%Y%m%d`" to ant did the trick. I had to make sure that directory existed first, otherwise it threw a java ioexception.
    I still don't understand what changes between 10.3.0 and 10.3.1 to necessitate this change.

  • Deployment to an UEFI enabled system using a custom Format and Partition Disk Task does not work

    Hello all,
    I know that MDT 2012 Update 1 has the necessary intelligence to create the GPT partition etc. when the Gather Process detects that the system is UEFI enabled. However i wanted to configure the Format and Parition task myself, so i copied the default one,
    disabled it and just added a new one with the following configuration.
    Disk Number 0
    Disk Type = GPT
    i then added
    EFI, Partition Type = EFI, 500 MB, file system FAT32
    MSR, 128 MB,
    OSDisk 40 GB, PRIMARY
    i then start the Win8 x64 Task Sequence , it formats the disks, it applies the image, but then when it reboots i cannot boot.
    What am i doing wrong here ?

  • Liquid Layout does not work with extreme long pages

    (Solution at the end)
    Hi there.
    I have a layout for iPad with a width of 1024 and variable height.
    I now need an alternative layout for iPad HD. So I try to use liquid layout to alternate my layout to 2048 width and height x 2.
    The maximum size in InDesign is 15552px. So I managed to get all my SD layouts below 7776px.
    to sum things up:
    iPad SD: 1024x7776
    transform into
    iPad HD: 2048x15552
    Problem is, in this case the option to scale everything automatically gets completely ignored.
    Another layout, which uses only text and no images, boxes or multimedia gets transformed correctly.
    Does anybody have a tip for me how I can work around it?
    Thanks in advance.
    p.s.: Adobe, please increase the maximum sizes for documents
    Solution:
    Aaaand I just got it. Specify a new preset for your document-sizes: 2048x15552. Now if you use the page tool just click the new (in my case) "iPad HD" and choose liquid layout: scale.
    Works like a charm

    I am using Automator to find files with the .pages
    extension and then copy them to another folder, which
    lists the copied Pages files by name but with Zero
    KB! The files will not open - error: the index.xml
    file is missing.
    Any ideas on how to get a Pages file to copy with
    Automator?
    Hi Kurt
    To answer the title of your message: no, Pages does not work with Automator.
    But that's not really what you're asking. You really want to know how to copy Pages documents using Automator.
    To help you we need to know what Actions you're using in Automator and the parameters you're using eg the Filter Finder Items action (using a pages file extension) and the Copy Finder Items actions. Pls let us know how you're doing this and we'll try to help.
    Thanks.

  • TS1702 When I update to IOS6 on my 4S Facebook does not work properly, the news feed never updates it only says no new storeys and shows a picture of an antenna. When I reset my phone and go back to IOS5 Facebook works fine. What's up with IOS6 ????

    When I update my iPhone 4S to iOS six Facebook does not work properly the newsfeed doesn't load properly and I can never see what's going on all I see is a picture of an antenna and a little thing underneath it says no new stories when I reset my phone back to iOS 5 then it works just fine and I don't have any issues so there must be something wrong with iOS six that isn't letting Facebook load properly

    No I did not use any unauthorized methods for anything, I simply reset my phone back to factory.

    I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
    Trouble 1:
    Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.

  • MDT - Custom Reference Image does not work with Task Sequence, normal Windows 7 Enterprise Iso media works fine.

    Hi,
    Our MDT server is acting strange!
    I have previously had this system running without problem - i could both capture and deploy computers as is and no changes have been made to mdt.
    But my latest capture does not work. When i capture my reference maching in my VM environment it completes without errors and i can import the latest wim file.
    When i deploy the tast sequence, it install the custom Wim image, but it ends up with "login" screen as the administrator i have entered for the capture/deploy sequence, but it goes to stop at this point and applications is not installed.
    If i change the ISO in the task sequence under Install OS step, to a clean Win7 install media then the capture completes and install applications.
    I have also tried to:
