Too Many Panics - Lots of Java Errors - Re-installed Safari

My stable-since-I-bought-her-new-in-2007 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo 2GB Apple RAM started to panic crash all the time on me recently. But only during/after running Safari. Repairing Disk Permissions showed a lot of "javascript" errors ...
I un-installed Safari. And re-installed from the copy at the Apple Support site. Tremendous improvement in overall performance.
I am not sure what caused my problem. I was only using one authorized plug-in. And I have had no similar problems on my 17" MacBook Pro from late 2006.
But I am back to feeling productive again with my mini!
THANKS to those who took the time to read my Panic reports last week.

Hi Clemens,
- Do you have any idea why "TOP" utility shows me RAM is being consumed almost 99%. I have gone through the different processes that are running in the server, but didnt find any of them which are not consuming even all together a total of 100-150MB of RAM.
- We have only tomcat server running in it, no other applicatoin not even DB server.
- I have installed the same application in our testing server which is setup in the same lines. There I find only single thread of JAVA and consuming around the same memory and the TOP utility shows us OUR SERVER RAM still having 50% of memory free. The only difference here is the JVM which is 1.4.1_01-b01. In our production server (server I mentioned earlier) is having JVM 1.4.2_06-b03.
Why do think is this difference? Is it because of JVM or some misconfiguration?
Regards

You shouldn't have them at all. I don't see anything in the 2 panic reports implicating Safari?
Disconnect all peripherals, only Apple keyboard and mouse and test. Often connected peripherals cause kernel panics. See isolating issues in Mac OS X. for troubleshooting steps.

Weblogic.version gives java error after install of D33T

Hi,
I just installed patch D33T (Oracle WebLogic Server Patch Set Update 10.3.6.0.4) - released April 2013. Before installing the patch, I checked my weblogic version (running setWLSEnv and java weblogic.version) following the instructions in the readme and the command worked.
The patch installed fine, I then checked the version again (first doing setWLSEnv and then running java weblogic.version) - however this produced the java error 'NoClassDefFoundError' - could not find the main class: weblogic.version.
I found a blog entry that suggested adding the weblogic.jar to the classpath, so I did that, then exported the classpatch, ran the setWLSEnv.sh again and tried the java weblogic.version command again - but still received the java error. I then tried running the command from the folder containg the weblogic.jar and still no luck.
Anyone have any ideas why this may be producing errors?
Thanks,
Connie
Environment info: RHEL 64 - Weblogic SErver 11gR1 (10.3.6.0) - The servers start and seem to be running fine after the patch install.

I was trying a few more things after I sent my last reply and wondered if my classpath and path values might have not had correct values after running setWLSENV.sh
When I echo'ed their values, they came back without any of the values being set by setWLSEnv.sh
I then set them by copying and pasting the values echo'ed back from the setWLSEnv.sh file - by using export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:<<paste of echo'ed classpath from setWLSEnv.sh>> and then the same for the path. After this, I tried the java weblogic.version and that worked - so now, I guess I am left to deal with issue of my setWLSEnv.sh not setting the CLASSPATH and PATH variables.
Thanks,
Connie

Java error when installing Groupwise on MacBook Pro

I am trying to install Groupwise for Mac, but continue to receive an error during the installation process that indicates "Uncaught exception in main method: java.lang.unsatisfiedLinkerror:..." Can anyone helpe me? I'd like to install this software.
I'm using a MacBook Pro. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Vlad

This usually indicates a messed-up java installation or a missing JNI system library. Can you post the entire stack trace? That would help me to narrow down the problem.
The stack trace looks something like this:

Clean install on a sles 11 sp 2 using the web/lamp selection. Here is what I believe I have done. Since it is a VM, I might just start over, doesn't take long. Assuming I start over, creating a vm that is a web/lamp sles 11 sp 2. Would I install JRE (I downloaded the 1.7.5 x64 rpm)? The install the java 1_6_0-ibm rpm from Yast? Then run the Webaccess install? Then run the config and hope it doesn't error out?
is that correct? Thank you for the help.

I have totally uninstalled Firefox--too many problems. Now I want to install a previous version, 9.0. The only versions I can find are 10.0--NO, NO, NO--and 3.6. WHERE DO I FIND VERS. 9.0??

Just give me an address for version 9.0--please!

Any extension that was properly updated for Firefox '''4.0''', shouldn't automatically be disabled in Firefox 10.0 for being "incompatible". I have never used CoolIris myself, when I tried it a few years ago it "sucked the life" out of my PC, so I can't comment specifically about that add-on. But I have 60 extensions installed and only one was disabled with the Firefox 10.0 update - an extension that was not correctly updated a year ago; it still works in Firefox but I have to play with it after every Firefox update to get the new version to accept it and use it.
Contact CoolIris support to find out what the problem is with their Firefox add-on, as to why they haven't updated it beyond Firefox 9.0 yet - http://www.cooliris.com/help/
This page - http://www.cooliris.com/help/desktop/?p=self_help - to me indicates that they may have a lot of fixing to so, it's not properly recognizing that Firefox 10.0 is out and a valid version - it says: <br />Your current version: Firefox 10.0 <br />
Most recent version available: Firefox 5.0 <br />
Almost like that help page thinks Firefox 10.0 is being recognized as Firefox 1.0 instead. I seen a few other pages that have misread the Firefox 10.0 version number and mentioned an older version as being the "oldest compatible version". <br />''Shades of website Y2K compliance haunting us from the grave?''

Sorry for the late resp. Here's what dev suggests be investigated:
I would want to know:
Can they do a "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dmstool -dump" and
save/compress/send the results?
Are there any errors printed in the Apache error_log while this leak occurs?
The customer could/should re-check their TCP settings, especially the TCP time wait interval and generally follow the TCP settings recommended in Chapter 5 of the iAS Performance Guide for 9.0.2.
Is there anything else interesting/unusual about the site?
Let us know how it goes.

EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (too many repetitions of a segment)

Hi All -
We are getting an "EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (too many repetitions of a segment)" error message while processing the REMADV message in the payment run program.
Basic Type : PEXR2002
Message Type : REMADV
Segment Name : E1EDP02
This issue is due to BELNR length in above segment, since payment run program assigning the 45 chars but BELNR length is 35 char, is there any way or OSS notes we can implement to rectify the same.
Thanks in Advance.
Rds,
K

Hi,
This error is the segment definition violation. Open your BASIC IDOC type in WE30, double click on the segment TESTIDOC.
In the popup you can see properties like mandatory segment, Minimum number and Max number. Your IDOC is crossing the max number of repetitions it can have. If any of the segment definition perperties like this one, or improper position of the segment etc occurs IDOC is generated with syntax error.
Thanks,
Vinod.

SMD agents occupying too many session in java system

I can see SMD agent occupying too many sessions in the Java instance.
Due to this all the available sessions are getting occupied and system performance is degrading

Hi Rajesh,
Please increase the sessions and share more details on the performance so as to provide guidelines.

Operation Could Not Be Completed: Too Many Open...

I've had this error showing up a lot in the Safari 3.2 and 4.0 beta activity window when loading multiple tabs of pages with many images (usually gallery type pages or blogs with lots of thumbnails). The result is that some images or other elements like style sheets don't load, leading to the blue question mark, or messed up formatting. Unfortunately, the activity window can't be stretched wide enough to see the whole error, but in fact it's "Operation Could Not Be Completed: Too Many Open Files". The error "socket(PF_ROUTE) failed: Too many open files" shows up in the Console as well, at least with Safari 4. I had also experienced similar problems with "Operation Timed Out" errors as well.
I've been pulling my hair out on this one, because it's rather inconsistent, not to mention annoying. You can usually get an individual page to load completely by refreshing it, but that kind of defeats the purpose of loading multiple tabs all at once. It's also less of a problem if more of those pages are already cached, but you never know for sure. Running your connection through a proxy also helps a bit, but not always.
I found a fix, but it's actually not Safari's "fault" per se. The issue lies in the allowable number of open files per user process, which is set by the system's launchd process at boot time. Note that Safari is not entirely innocent, as FireFox doesn't have this problem. It Seems that Safari just tries to load everything all at once, whereas FireFox does a better job of managing its load requests. Anyway if you run the following command in Terminal:
sudo launchctl limit
the following list should show up (with perhaps slightly different values)
cpu unlimited unlimited
filesize unlimited unlimited
data 6291456 unlimited
stack 8388608 67104768
core 0 unlimited
rss unlimited unlimited
memlock unlimited unlimited
maxproc 200 532
maxfiles 256 unlimited
The second column is a "soft limit" and the third column is a "hard limit", though to be honest I'm not exactly sure what the difference entails. The image loading problem is caused by hitting the maxfiles limit of just 256 files. The solution is to change maxfiles to 4096/unlimited, and also change maxproc to 1000/2000 since it's pretty low as well. That sounds like a pretty big change, but OS X server is supposed to change them to numbers like this when services like Apache are enabled, and Apple even mentions how to change maxproc at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1659
To make these changes, run the following two commands in Terminal and restart the computer:
echo "limit maxproc 1000 2000" | sudo tee -a /etc/launchd.conf
echo "limit maxfiles 4096 unlimited" | sudo tee -a /etc/launchd.conf
The commands add the two lines in quotes to the launchd.conf file in /etc/ (if no file exists yet, it creates it). That should clear up the loading issues. I haven't noticed any other problems with these increased numbers, but I'll report back if anything seems to go amiss. Hopefully this will be helpful to someone.

I faced the same problem with an image gallery using css for image resizing. Thanks for the explanation.

"Bad Data, too many results for shortname"

Every 10 minutes since October 13 the wikid error log has recorded the following error message:
*"Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username"*, always naming the same user, who is not actually doing anything.
Coinciding with that message at the same time every 10 minutes, the system log records 13 or 14 of the following:
*"Python\[15645\]: ••• -\[NSAutoreleasePool release]: This pool has already been released, do not drain it (double release)."*
15645 is a process owned by _teamserver, which would appear to confirm the connection between the python and wikid error messages.
Last clue: The messages (I have determined in hindsight) started while I was setting up the server to do vacation messages. The user named in the "Bad data" messages was the user who wanted to (and did) set up a vacation message at that time. They worked, too.
Anyone have any ideas about what is going on and how to fix it? BTW, google does not find even one page where this "Bad data" error message is mentioned.

Thanks for your response. To answer your questions:
+Are you using AD for your directory?+ No. OD master only.
+Are there users with duplicate shortnames in your directory system?+ No, and to double check, I searched with WGM and only the one came up.
+As a bit of background, the wiki server keeps an private index of user and group information so we can track user preferences, and the "Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username" error is triggered when we do a lookup in that index for a particular user and we (unexpectedly) hit duplicate entries. Are you seeing an issue with using the software, or just an annoying log message?+ It's hard to say (for me) what might be related. The directory or wiki related issues with the server include:
• A memory issue with slapd that eventually causes it to crash. (preceded by lots of "bdbdbcache: db_open(+various: sn, displayname, givenname, mail, maybe others+) failed: Cannot allocate memory (12)" and "logging region out of memory" and "index_param failed" errors.
• The wiki is slow, despite very light use.
• Wake from sleep (network clients with authentication required) can be very slow. Several minutes even.
Any suggestions you may have would be appreciated.

Slow system and too many details after upgrading to OS/Lion

This MacBook Pro is my right hand, I was doing so great with Snow Leopard, Now everything takes twice longer. I cleaned up, reseted, reinstalled softwares, etc. same.
Too many details that doesn't work correctly.
-Safari constantly needs to be loading. Some times Firefox.
The track pad cant keep open a display box with a long list, once you try to scroll down.
-Preview, i used this app a lot, safe me time, DUPLICATE? instead of SAVE, i don't see the purpose. After editing images and safe them, gamma, color patterns and light appear distortion.
-iTunes volume doesn't comeback after using Skype or another app, remains low.
-Airport takes a bit longer to find a local network.
-There is not an extra space for the left and right scroll bottom on the finder window, sometimes this one disappear but mostly remains which makes it pretty tricky to open the last file at the bottom of the list. because the scroller is on front.
-External Drives, takes longer to connect or disconnect them.
Suggestions before i reinstall Snow Leopard.

guizz,
it sounds like you have come across the mother of all problems but i would like to help as much as i can.
first of all, i noticed that it took a few days after installing lion before my system was back to the full stride it had while running snow leopard give it some time and a few updates and lion should speed up because components such as ram take time to adjust.
the duplicate thing in preview is a new thing that came out with versions, one of the many new features in lion. i think it takes the place of the SAVE AS... command and you should still be able to save using the old command-s keystroke however part of lion includes an autosave feature so you really never have to worry about saving your work.
i personally cannot speak for safari or firefox even though i have both because i use google chrome as my web browser you can always give that a try.
in the system preferences under the general settings option you can change how the scroll bar is displayed on the screen.
i would suggest searching for other people who have had similar problems with itunes to try and find an answer
as for everything else your system may just need time to adjust to lion
good luck hope this helped a little

/Originally, I had just the one function with VARCHAR2 arguments. This failed to work properly because when dates were passed in, the automatic conversion to VARCHAR2 was dropping the timestamp. So, I added a 2nd function with DATE arguments. Then I started getting "too many declarations of is_same exist" error when passing TIMESTAMPs. This made no sense to me, so even though Oracle's documentation says you cannot do it, I created a 3rd version of the function, to handle TIMESTAMPS explicitly. Surprisingly, it works fine. But then I noticed it didn't work with TIMESTAMP with TIME ZONEs. Hence, the fourth version of the function. Oracle's docs say that if your arguments are of the same type family, you cannot create an overloaded function, but as the example above shows, this is very wrong.
Lastly, just for grins, I created the two number functions, one with NUMBER, the other with REAL, and even these are allowed - they compile. But then at run time, it fails. I'm really confused.
Here is the apparently incorrect Oracle documentation on the matter: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B12037_01/appdev.101/b10807/08_subs.htm (see overloading subprogram names), and here are the various types and their families: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e17126/predefined.htm.

That is because when you pass a TIMESTAMP Oracle cannot determine whether to implicitly convert it to VARCHAR2 and use your first function or implicitly convert it to DATE and use your second function. Hence the 'too many declarations' exist error.

Possibly because of another 'too many declarations' error? Because now there would be THREE possible implicit conversions that could be done.

I think the documentation, for the 'date' family, is wrong as you suggest. For INTEGER and REAL the issue is that those are ANSI data types and are really the same Oracle datatype; they are more like 'aliases' than different datatypes.
See the SQL Language doc
>
ANSI, DB2, and SQL/DS Datatypes
SQL statements that create tables and clusters can also use ANSI datatypes and datatypes from the IBM products SQL/DS and DB2. Oracle recognizes the ANSI or IBM datatype name that differs from the Oracle Database datatype name. It converts the datatype to the equivalent Oracle datatype, records the Oracle datatype as the name of the column datatype, and stores the column data in the Oracle datatype based on the conversions shown in the tables that follow.
