Debugging Tips for Mapping and Validation modules

Hi,
I am new to CRM, anybody can send the dubuging tips for Mapping and Validation modules and the list of tables which I have to check before loading.
(Intilal load & delta load)
Regards
KHM

KHM,
The first thing you need to make sure is that all queues are deregistered on both systems. Check the settings in SMQR and SMQS on your systems. The next step is that your middleware connection user must be a dialog user in order to debug the middleware properly.
If you have those two steps done, then for an initial load you can actually go into to the queues and debug the entries from each queue. For a delta load you will need to put a break point in the transaction before the middleware trigger, and then turn on update debugging(if you want to go through the full process).
The only other key is looking up the correct function modules for the adapter objects to determine what is being called. Once you know these and have done the steps above you can in general debug.
Validate the information above in your system and then let me know where you are getting stopped in your debug process. We can then try to figure out why the debugger is not being called.
Good luck,
Stephen

USING OTHER FAMILY ACCT UPGRADE AND TRANSFERRING TO MY PHONE #

Sharing Upgrade Question
Hi all,
A family member was eligible for upgrade 1/20/11 we are on different accounts. He has a simple standard phone but i wanted to get another phone he has let me use his upgrade which changed his plan to include a data plan.
in order to actually order the phone I wanted which i know can later be changed back to his original plan.
What steps are going to have to happen for me to activate the new phone under my phone number? Does he have to do it under his contract and is this going to require having to call CS? If he does call CS can he just let them know he decided to give me the phone and let me activate in under my phone number?
I know this void the warranty..
Thanks
Have a nice da!

Do i have to have both phones in my possession in front of me.Your family member (with the upgrade) will need to have his phone and the iPhone with him. First, he will activate the iPhone on his line to accept the terms of the contract. He MUST do this, or he could be charged full price for the phone. Once it is activated, the contract has been accepted, so he can then re-activate his old phone on his line. Re-activating his old phone will release the iPhone to be used on another line.
Do i have to call into CS? If i call into CS can't I just let them know he didn't want the phone so i want to activate it to my phone number instead. You do not have to call into CS. Dialing *228 and choosing option 1 will put you into the automated activation system. If your activation has a problem, you will automatically be connected to CS so they can finish the process. You CANNOT call CS and tell him "he doesn't want the phone." As the account owner, HE has to accept the 2-year contract by activating the phone on his line first before it can be used on another line.
The thing is I won't have his phone availabe to me as i will be at work and he will be somewhere else. You don't need to have his phone, but he does need to have the iPhone briefly to activate it on his line. Then he can give it to you to activate on your line.
Sorry for all the confusion but if i can transfer and have the new phone that i ordered with me while temporaily activating it then transferring it over to my number while the family member has his phone whereever he may be would be great if not i will have to wait to activate it when all the phones can be together. Thank you every1 that has responded and sorry for all the confusion.

Any tips for upgrading from LR4 to LR5

I am just about to attempt my upgrade from LR4 (student edition) to full-fledged LR5. Any hints or tips on how to redirect LR4 directories, etc. to LR5? Other tips for the install? (Obviously, I've backed up my computer prior to starting.)
Thanks!
Rick

Your "full-fledged" Lightroom 5 will be no different than the student version of Lightroom 5, because there is only one Lightroom program. You'll have new features in Lightroom 5, of course. But don't expect anything extraordinary because there is no difference. All you have to do is install Lightroom 5. Since it is an upgrade, it will look for that serial number from your Lightroom 4, and then you will have to enter the new serial number for Lightroom 5. When Lightroom starts it will find your previous catalog and will offer to upgrade it to the appropriate format. The original Lightroom 4 catalog will be left as it was, and completely usable by Lightroom 4. After the upgrade process completes you should be able to see all the images and all the work that you did in Lightroom 4, but you will be using the new program. It's a very straightforward process.

My firefox won't work; It says "unable to connect" and I have tried all of the tips for troubleshooting and it still wont' work.

Firefox opens up with an "unable to connect" message; it also says it cannot establish a connection to the server with these three bullets: 1) The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
2) If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
3) If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
I have tried to do all of the tips that you have on your website for troubleshooting and nothing seems to work. I know it is not my Internet connection because my roommates can get on Firefox without a problem and my Internet Explorer opens just fine.

If your iPad is defective and is still under warranty, you can take it to an Apple Authorized Repair Center and get it fixed. If you are worried about a defective replacement, then a repair may be a better way to go. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
Personally, I would prefer getting a replacement. You read about many defects here in this forum, but they only represent a tiny percentage of all iPads sold.

ABAP and Kernel Patches for Upgrade and Conversion in 4.6C

Hi,
We are in a process of upgrade and unicode conversion for the source release 4.6C (Kernel 46D_EXT Patch 2225).
"Combined Upgrade&Unicode Conversion Guide" for "SAP Basis 4.6C u2192 SAP NetWeaver 7.0 application Server ABAP Unicode Including Enhancement Package 1 Support Package 01 - 06" , In Software Requirements step, it says
"3. Import 4.6D Kernel patch 2326 from SAP Service Marketplace according to SAP Note 19466"
We wanted to know whether "IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECCESSARY TO GO FOR THE KERNEL PATCH 2326". We dont have "EBCIDIC code pages" in our MDMP system.
We need to know becauase we are also doing OS migration from AIX to Sun and this step will add to our production downtime.
Please advice what are the other causes we should go for the kernel 2326.
Regards

Hello Mr. Nils Buerckel,
Thanks for the reply.
We wanted to be very sure whether we should used Kernel 46D Kernel patch 2326 (As it is specifically mentioned in the SAP CU&UC guide and in SAP Note 867193, It is mentioned that "This patch contains enhancements that are required to execute the "INDX Analysis" scan)
OR
Can we go for the latest kernel patch avaialable at market place? And Will the latest kernel patch also contains the "enhancements that are required to execute the "INDX Analysis" ?
Please reply
Thanks

TIPS for UPGRADING SUCCESSFULLY the FIRMWARE of your ROUTER

WARNING, before doing the UPGRADE, it is highly recommended to back-up the configurations of your router so that no matter what happened, you router configuration wouldn't be messed up and you can just automatically restore it (the firmware version upgraded to it will just retain).
Here's how to:
>open http://192.168.1.1
>username: blank, password: admin
>go to ADMINISTRATION TAB
>under the managerment subtab or config management subtab, you will see BACK-UP & RESTORE
let me give you a very useful tips guys,
when updating the firmware of the router and prevent the firmware from bricking or being corrupted and get a very successful results you will need to set a static IP adress ( so you won't lose connection to the router when updating the firmware) and force the card to 10 half duplex (so your router won't reply unless all the packets when updating firmware has already ben set thoroughly to the router) of your PC prior to updating the firmware. then after the firmware, push the reset of your router for 10 sec. then redo the set-up.
You will also need to shut down the computers that are running wirelessly and disable antiviruses and firewalls that are running currently...
here are the instructions:
ASSIGN A STATIC IP ADRESS ON YOUR PC:
go to your control panel [select classic view (click the option on the left side right below control panel title)]. select network connections...
under LAN or high speed internet, you will see local area connection. right click on it then select properties
under local area connection properties, look for internet protocol TCP/IP. high light it and click properties.
once on the internet protocol TCP/IP properties, set it to use the following IP adress.
IP adress: 192.168.1.5 ( it must be same range of your default gateway: 192.168.x.x)
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (that is the default one. if not then enter the IP adress of your router, to check it, open command prompt, then type in "ipconfig" [no qoutes] the dafault gateway is equivalent to router's IP adress)
click ok and click the close button on the local area connectipn properties window (not the common "x" button when exiting out a window).
BRUTE FORCE THE CARD TO 10 Mbps half duplex mode
go to the same window (local area connection properties), once there, you will see a configure button. click it.
you will be lead to fast ethernet card 10/100 properties (depending on the type of etherenet card you have)
once there, click on the advance tab
under property, highlight link speed and duplex or media type or connection type (it varies, but these are one of those variations).
under value, select 10 Mbps/ Tx half mode/ duplex
click ok and click close on the local area connection window.
Then proceed with upgrading the firmware of your router. after updating the firmware of your router, reverse what you have done on your PC. by setting back the internet protocol TCP/IP to obtain an IP adress automatically and DNS server automatically (don't forget to click ok and close for the windows opened before opening a new one, okay?). then set back the speed and duplex mode back to auto-negotiation.
You should be able to get a successful results already after updating it. click on this link to reconfigure the router (but you must be online first to the modem since when the router is resetted, the configuration of your your router will be lost) http://www.linksysfix.com/check/HomePage/index.htm?CallerID=CC to reconfigure the router

"a helping hand in a community makes the world a universe"

Eh...
My routers GUI doesn't have the option to back up config so that doesn't help. Can't see why that would mater much anyway for home networking.
Also, I upgraded the firmware on my router multiple times and never had to force 10MB half duplex speeds. So, that doesn't help much either.

I plugged my iphone into my desktop today because i wanted to download photos, followed prompts for upgrades and icloud. next thing my contacts, photos and messages are gone, instead i have my sons photos contacts, messages! interesting but want my stuff

tried to download photos to my pc and followed prompts, upgrade, photos are gone, instead have my son's old picks

The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

Upgrading and transferring data to a new macbook pro, given my old mac is running on Lion.

I am currently using a late 2006 black macbook running OS Lion. I have recently bought a new retina macbook pro to upgrade to which will presumably be running OS Mountain Lion. I understand there are several ways to transfer data across to new macs and so I have some questions:
- What will be the best way to transfer my data across, given I regularly back up onto an external hard drive using Time Machine? I have doubts about the best way to do this as I don't want to load a bunch of junk across. Aren't there directories and cached data stored on the computer from used applications? Given I've had this for many years, I have downloaded, installed, and deleted many applications, so don't want a load of unused data clogging up my new mac. My main things to transfer are photos, music and regularly used applications such as Office (I was also wondering if I need to reinstall Office...or will it work after the transfer?)
- And do I need to upgrade to Mountain Lion first on the current Macbook?
Thanks

Read this and choose what you think serves your interests best:
http://pondini.org/OSX/Setup.html
It is best to reinstall non Apple applications later. You should be able to install a new OS at anytime you choose without any affect in your data. With that said, always have a backup.
Ciao.

Preparing for upgrade and Unicode conversion while on 4.6c

We're currently on 4.6c and preparing to upgrade to ERP 2005 and do a Unicode conversion. I'm trying to compile a list of coding techniques that can used in 4.6c that will minimize changes needed for Unicode. Does anyone have such a list?
Some things I've discovered reading about Unicode include:
1) Use GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD rather than WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD.
2) Structures or table headers that contain non-character data need to be identical when moving, comparing, selecting into, updating from, etc. This includes not moving structures/tables with non-character data to a character field or vice-versa.
3) Offsets can't cross non-character data.
4) Assign statement with offset must specify a length.
5) Open dataset must specify "FOR INPUT", "FOR OUTPUT", "FOR APPENDING", or "FOR UPDATE". It no longer defaults to FOR INPUT when omitted.
6) Many implicit conversions from char to numeric are no longer allowed. Use explicit conversion instead; such as the move statement.
I know there are others. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Mark Perrey

Tips for upgrading from LR2 to 3 while switching to a new computer?

My old mac was a G5 so I finally joined the modern world with a new iMac. On the new machine I've installed LR3, but I'm still running LR2 on the old machine. I want to bring all my pics/catalogs/dbs over (most likely by getting an external HD case for the current drive of the old machine) to the new machine and into LR2. Any tips on how to import everything? Anything to watch out for? I have thousands of images, some of it paid work, and I don't want to lose anything. Thanks.

Rule No. 1: DON'T IMPORT!!
This is what I would do:
On the old machine and LR2, make sure you have one (or just a few) top-level folders for all your images, and they are showing hierarchically in your folder panel. You might have to use "Add Parent Folder" a few times to achieve this.
With the old drive mounted on the new machine, double-click the LR2 catalog to start LR3
You will be asked if you want to convert your LR2 catalog into an LR3 catalog
Confirm this action, which will build a new LR3 catalog from your LR2 catalog, leaving the LR2 catalog as it is
If your folders/images show missing (which I'm not sure about on a Mac when the same volume is mounted as an external drive), perform a "Find missing folder" on all top-level folder(s) of your catalog, pointing to the folders on the mounted volume
If needed/wanted, you can then move the top-level image folders from within LR to a different volume
If you need/want to move the catalog as well, copy the "[catalogname].lrcat" file and the "[catalogname] Previews.lrdata" folder to a different drive when LR is closed, and restart LR by double clicking the copied .lrcat file
Delete the old catalog after you're sure the new one works to your satisfaction
You might also want to consider copying your presets, plugins and ACR defaults from the old machine to the new one.

Tip for upgrading from MBP to iMac with Leopard & Parallels Boot Camp

Here are some pointers based on my recent experience upgrading from a MacBook Pro to an iMac, under Leopard and with Parallels using a Boot Camp partition for Windows.
First, you do not need to create a Windows partition on your new computer. You will use Boot Camp Assistant to do that - it can dynamically resize your existing Mac OS X partition without destroying it. (I initially used Disk Utility to create a Windows partition but it wasn't recognised properly by Parallels and also the Mac wouldn't boot from it).
A great way to simplify getting your old installation across is to make a Time Machine backup onto an external drive. Yes, you could also use start up your old Mac in Target mode (hold down T key when you start it), then start the new Mac and copy your settings over. But in my case, the new iMac (a refurb) came with Tiger installed on it while my old Mac had already been upgraded to Leopard.
I started the new Mac using a Leopard install CD (holding down the C key while starting). Then I chose to restore from a Time Machine backup instead of installing from CD, and soon had a functioning Leopard installation on the new Mac. Well, almost.
Next I used Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows partition on the new drive. The old Mac's partition was only 10 GB in size, but I made the new one 31.9 GB in size (so I could stay under the Windows limit of 32 GB for FAT partitions). I then quit without installing Windows.
On the old Mac, I used an external drive formatted as FAT and used Disk Utility to 'restore' my Windows partition to the external drive. Next I plugged that drive into the new Mac, and restored the external Windows partition to the new Mac's Windows partition. So far, so good. However, Parallels would not start this installation of Windows, and the new Mac would not boot into it (holding down the Option key at start-up did not show me a Windows drive).
I tried doing a repair of the Windows installation using a Windows install disk but that did not work. What did work was the following: I booted from the Window install CD, then started a new installation. I asked Windows to format the Windows partition on the new Mac, then powered off the new Mac as soon as Windows started copying files. Next, I rebooted the new Mac into Mac OS X, started Disk Utility, and again did a restore of the Windows partition on the external drive to the Windows partition on the new Mac.
The final step was to reboot the new Mac into Windows directly so that I could load drivers from the Leopard install CD. [I haven't done that yet, so I'm not sure it's necessary].
Hope this helps!

Sounds solid to me. If the Glyph was connected on a firewire port that is. This would free up the bandwith that way but actually it is hardly an issue with the Duet considering the limited inputs. But using the Glyph as a backup for your projects is good wise idea anyway.

Tip for upgrading library to A3

I had serious trouble when Aperture 3 tried to scan for faces on my upgraded library. Think I had to kill A3 five times before I thought about disabling it forever. So I disabled faces but as a last resort I deleted all previews in my library. After doing that the scanning for faces went smoothly along, really fast. The surprise was that the Mac was completely responsive as well. Superb!
Now if only that darn program could remember the serial I've entered like a hundred times already :-/

As far as the serial number goes -- maybe there is a permissions problem and the application can't store the serial number on the computer. Just a thought.

I have a K8N Neo2 Platinum and play a lot of MMORPGs. Have two tips that helped me solve problems with the two newest games in that area.
With EQ2 some times my character would start running in slow motion. This was not normal graphic lag. Frame rates would actually remain fairly good. Character just moved in slow motion. Found on the boards many people with intel lap tops having this same problem. Someone figured out their CPU speed was going down during these times of slow motion. So I turned off Cool & Quiet in my bios and my slow motion problems went away. Is a shame because did not have C&Q problems with anything else.
With WoW I had a problem after completing a quests NPCs would no longer communicate and I could not log out. Other play would appear normal like MOB and players would continue to move around but after a few minutes would be disconnected from the server. Strangely mostly this problem only happened when playing Horde. Many others were having this same issue on the tech support board. For NForce chipset users what turned out to be the solution was going to Ethernet Settings---->Advanced Configuration--->Checksum Offload and turning if off. Don't know for sure buy my guess is my internet packets are a bit slower now as the downside to this fix.

ive been cranking through wow for awhile now. and have not seen this problem you describe. however im a nightelf.
but thank you for sharing your insight and the first time this happens now ill who too despise and what to fix
cuz that very type of problem would be very unthinkable almost to trace back to mobo eth settings. without the common denominator on the tech support board.

Charged for upgrade and never finished the upgrade

In august I went to the local verizon store after realizing I was eligible for an upgrade. Online I was able to get an iPhone or galaxy for free but when I went to the store that was not the case. I started the upgrade process in the store but did not have the funds necessary so had to cancel. Now that it is almost Christmas my husband wants to get me a new phone but my upgrade date shows 2016 and after going back through my bills I was charged the upgrade fee even though I never successfully completed the upgrade. Has anyone else had this problem? I have about had enough with verizon and am thinking of switching if I resolve this matter and once my husbands line is out of contract.
