Themes Applied via GPO Not Working in Build 9926?
I've built 2 machines side by side, one using build 9879 and the other using 9926. They were both built using the exact same process. They are both in the same OU and have the exact same GPOs applied.
The custom theme that I apply using Group Policy works correctly on the 9879 machine, but I've got nothing on the 9926 machine. Just a black screen.
Build 9879:
Build 9926:
For what it's worth, after multiple reboots (3x) the custom theme and wallpaper were correctly applied.
Still, the GPO settings were applied correctly and immediately on build 9879 but it took 3 reboots for it to apply on build 9926.

Installing Flash Player 11.8.800.94 via GPO not working properly
Hello,
i've installed Flash Player 11.8.800.94 via GPO.
Installation works fine, but there is no flash player available in Firefox or Internet Explorer.
Deployed both Flash Players.
Tried to reinstall Flash Player 11.8.800.94 for Firefox, but it's still not active.
Windows 7, 64bit
Greetings,
MichaelHello Comvel.
RE:
Hello,
i haven't fixed it yet.
I've deployed the last few version of flash player without any problems.
I haven't found any new things in the admin guide.
The plugins don't show up in both browsers. I can't enable them.
On the most importent clients, i've installed flash player manually.
I know it has been a few months since your post but, I was wonderingif you were able to find a solution for this that didn't involve manual installations. I've recently deployed 11.8.800.175 and am running into the same problems. Some work stations are just fine. But others, (both windows 7 and xp, all IE8) are not working. When navigating to a site like youtube, theres a banner that says update is needed. When you go to manage add-ons there is no shock object/add on. -
Setting NTFS Folder ACLs via GPO not working on 2012 R2
I have configured some NTFS folder persmissions using a GPO in
Computer configuration/Windows Settings/Security Settings/File System/
Configure this file or folder then: Propagate inheritable permissions to all subfolders and files
This works great on all my Server 2008R2 boxes. But it has no effect on my 2012R2 boxes!
gpresult /z indicates that the policy is read and applied.
Why doesn't this work for 2012 R2 servers?
Many thanks.> This works great on all my Server 2008R2 boxes. But it has no effect on
> my 2012R2 boxes!
check %windir%\security\logs\winlogon.log - that's where file system
permissions are logged.
In addition, it might be that SYSTEM hasn't full access to the folder
you want to modify?

To whom it may concern, This morning I purchased an album, on listening to it three of the tracks are not playing correctly. I read on an apple discussion board that I should delete them and re-download them. This did not work as I was asked to pay for them, and one of the tracks was an album only track.

Flash Player deploy by GPO - not working
I've been attempting to get Flash Player 10 (distributable verision, install_flash_player_10_active_x.msi) to deploy accross our network - three sites, around 100 computers total.
I've assigned it to Group Policy, the client machines pull it down and install successfully (it even shows up in Add/Remove programmes).
However it doesn't work. Whenever any user goes to a flash-based website they get a message telling them to download and install flash.
Has anyone else experienced this?
All our clients are running Win XP and IE8In case this might help someone else - I've now given up with installing flash via GPO, and decided to try
to install via a vbscript computer start up script that I knocked together this morning. In case it might help someone else, copy is included below:
Basically - put msizap.exe from windows installer sdk + the adodb flash uninstaller/msi file in the directory (strNetworkPath)
Script then does the following:
1) Calls adobe's uninstaller exe in silent mode to clean up what adobe can - then what it leaves behind we do ourselves:
2) removes c:\windows\temp\installax.exe if it exists
3) searches for and deletes from registry any Managed applications references containing (Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX) - in our case, i've already told GPO's to remove flash player - so it's erroring on uninstall at the moment)
4) Search for any installed msi applications called 'adobe flash player 10 activex' and runs MSIZAP on them ( seems adobe uninstaller doesn't completely remove the local msi references ;/)
5) copies MSI down frmo network to windows temp
6) msiexec /qb msi
7) delete the msi file

Custom lock screen GPO not working for domain users
I have a WS2012 standard server with W8 Pro clients. I'm trying to force the lock screen to a .jpg however it's not working, it leaves the users with just a standard blueish screen.

Javascript calls via getURL not working anymore
After upgrading to flash player 9,0,115,0 a simple call like
getURL("javascript(alert'message')); doesn't work anymore on
Internet Explorer (it fails without any error in policyfiles.txt,
but it still work on Firefox). My IE version is 7.
I can't use ExternalInterface 'cause i need to publish as
Flash Player 7 AS2.0.
Any comment or suggestion?I have a similar problem. When running a local HTML file,
using IE7 and FP 9,0,115,0, all the getURL function calls cease to
work.
If I downgrade to FP8, still using IE7, everything works.
If I downgrade to IE6, still using FP9.0.115.0, everything
works.
If I load the HTML via HTTP (instead of local), using IE7 and
FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
If I use Firefox, with FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
So, the function calls fail only when the swf is contained on
a
local HTML file, using
IE7, and
FP9.0.115.0. The problem is, most of our customers have that
software profile, and all of them need to load the content locally
(its very heavy for network transmission).
All the getURLs are like this:
getURL("javascript:someFunction()");
We're setting the 'allowScriptAccess' to 'always'.
Also, if we put the OBJECT tag inside the HTML (instead on an
external JS file), the function calls still do not work. -
Hi all,
I did not found answer for my problem in the topics discussed for ScreenSaver GPO for Windows 7.
I have to create e GPO for Windows 7 SP1 machines which enables screen saver after certain amount of inactivity. Domain controllers are Windows 2008R2. So I go to
User\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Personalization and I set the following things here:
Enabled ScreenSaver
Password Protect the ScreenSaver
ScreenSaver time out
Force specific screen saver - I put Ribon.scr
The GPO is applied correctly. I check it via GPresult and rsop.msc. I see that there is a configured screensaver which I cannot change because of the policy but after the configured time out of inactivity the screen saver does not start!!!
If I set the screensaver localy it starts after the time out.
What could be the reason the screensaver not to start when it applied via a GPO!? Any help would greatly appreciated!> Force specific screen saver - I put Ribon.scr
There is no Screen Saver called "Ribon.scr"...

GPO not working for new Users (Background)
Terminal Server 2012 in a hosted environment
I've set the below policy to set a default background wich can be changed by the users after this.
The target is an networkdrive. (The Reason behind this is that we have multiple resellers that all have the same networkdrive but pointing to a different store) Lets just say for this example that is P:/Background/ResellerBackground.jpg
The policy is Linked to the Resellers OU.
This works perfectly for all the existing users.
For new users this is not working at all. It does run the policy but it create the profile after running the policies.
So the above setting gets overruled by the default windows server 2012 background. The RunOnce atribute is set now, so it will not load it again.
I have read a lot of different sollutions so far, but none are working in this environment. (From changing the default Hive to changing the default picture etc)
One sollution came close, but not working perfectly either, this is removing the RunOnce atribute from the register, and letting the new users log in again. You do not wanna let new users login twice.
Before Windows 7/8/2012, in XP it just copied the default user and then the policies ran. So here the problem does not exist. Now it makes the profile after running the policies.
Anyone having an idea to resolve this issue?Hi,
Before going further, what’s the value in the wallpaper registry entry
value data for new users?
>>One sollution came close, but not working perfectly either, this is removing the RunOnce atribute from the register, and letting the new users log in again. You
do not wanna let new users login twice.
If we choose this solution, we can try running cmd command
gpupdate/force to see whether it can work.
Another workaround is we can do it from scratch. We can create a new GPO to deploy wallpaper for these new users. The steps are the same as previous ones, just using
Security Filtering to apply this new GPO to new users, and unlinking and deleting the GPO after the policy getting updated.
Best regards,

Connection to server via smb not working
hi,
i have an old G4 iBook 10.3.9 that i'm using for school. to connect to our school server for course material, we were given smb log-in instructions from our it dept. when i put in the ip address, i get a prompt for the id and password, but i cannot get access. we tried logging on with my professor's macbook pro (10.5) and it worked flawlessly.
i've done all software updates and rechecked the procedure dozens of times, but i can't figure out why it's not working. if anyone has an idea, i'm all ears.
thanks,created in my UTF-8 Mysql DB your table and inserted a record; the select shows:
SQL> select * from "movieclass"@mysql;
idClass
ClassName
123
H e l l o
As you can see the content is there, the "space" between the letters is related to unicode. Each character is interpreted by 2 bytes and SQL*Plus wrongly displays both. Using iSQLPLus or SQLDeveloper does not show the "space" between the letters.
Here the data type mapping:
SQL> desc "movieclass"@mysql;
Name Null? Type
idClass NUMBER(3)
ClassName NOT NULL NVARCHAR2(50)
What's the exact version of DG4ODBC you're using? 11.1.0.7?
According to the listener file you're using DG4ODBC on Windows. There was a high/low byte issue in DG4ODBC for Windows. This issue is fixed in 11.1.0.7 and a certain patch. So I recommend you to get first the 11.1.0.7 patchset (if you don't already have it installed):
6890831 Oracle Database Family: Patchset
11.1.0.7.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER 11.1.0.7.0
and then please apply also the latest patch:

Program does not work after build
Hi,
I have built a program today that builds fine (no errors or warnings) but it fails when running the exe. I am using drivers for a spectrum analyzer (Rohde & Schwarz FSG) and when one of these drivers is called, it returns an error. Other drivers are run before this particular vi. Anyone have any idea how to troubleshoot this? I'm going to try and build the vi on its own and see if it works. In the mean time, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.
UPDATE: I built the file on its own and it still does not work. Again, when I run it in developer mode, it works fine.
VISA Write in rsspecan_core_write.vi->rsspecan_core_attribute_write_int.vi:3->subrsspecan_core_attribute_express.vi:2->rsspecan Configure Averaging Type.vi:Instance:Instance 1 41Saved rsspecan Configure Averaging Type .vi:1->rsspecan Configure Averaging Type.vi
Thanks.I've decided to post the vi since it is free to download. If anyone has an FSG and wants to build this file and see if they can run it, please do so.

What error message if any did you get? It could be a couple things:
1. Did you include the Report Toolkit's dynamic vis in the app's build process?
Ref: Error 7 when Running an .EXE Using VIs from Report Generation Toolkit for MS Office
2. How are you giving the path to you custom template, as a relative or an absolute path? The path will be different for the .exe. You have to strip twice.
