UIX outputs HTML that is not valid XML

Greetings,
I am "experimenting" with UIX in Devloper 9i and I have noticed that the HTML that is output is very far from being valid XML, as a matter of fact it is so far off that Tidy can't even clean it up.
Are theere any plans in place to try to make the output be XHTML instead of "sloppy" html? This would have a number of benefits, one wich would be; One could percivably call an uix page into a xsql page.
Kind Regards
Ola Kvalvaag

The architecture of UIX is actually very well optimized to switch
between XHTML and HTML, as all output is pipelined through an
OutputMethod interface that abstracts away the difference between
the two. I believe our HTML is output is extremely well-formed
HTML, which isn't the same thing as well-formed XHTML. We quote
all our attributes, we close all elements that must be closed,
we escape characters that need escaping, etc.
Until this message, I guess we haven't had any complaints!
I've yet to see a browser that prefers XHTML to HTML.
What are you trying to do with the output that requires it to be
XHTML?

Destroying connection that is not valid, due to the following exception [com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Connection reset]

Hi everyone,
I'm facing the following problem in a Server runing Linux with JBoss AS 4.2.2, JRE 1.6, and MSSQL Server 2005 with JDBC 2.0 (sqljdbc4.jar).
The thing is: on friday morning I started up the server and everything worked fine ... next, from Friday at 6pm to Saturday at 8am nobody has used the system.
Then on Saturday at 8:05 got the following warning lines every time I tried to do something in my application. While it seems that everything works, after a few days the system starts to decrease their performance and malfunction, so I want to know why it
might happen these warnings.
I have tried to find a solution to this problem in several places but I'm not succeeding. That's why I'm writing my problem here...
Hope somebody can help me!
Thanks in advance and best regards!
Cristian.

I´m facing similar problem with Linux and SQL Server 2008 R2. I made the downgrade of JDK 1.6 from 27 to 26 (some people reporting errors when upgraded to jdk1.6_29 and rolling back is ok) but for me the error persists. At this moment we are testing with
sqljdbc4.jar version 4.0 (released in 3/6/2012). The curious I have two equals Linux boxes and only one have presented connection reset errors.
Thanks in advance.

Servermgrd[584]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "v\035\363d".

All,
I am having a very odd problem.
I have recently setup a Mac OS X Mavericks Server for the purposes of NetRestore.
Everything setup fine, no issues whatsoever and the server has been running non-stop for the past 78 days.
I've already imaged about 100 MacBook pros off of this server without a problem.
This morning I come in, start up an MBP that needs to be imaged and it sees the netrestore volumes and attemps to boot to it
then stops and doesn't go anywhere.
I've had my NBI's on an external firewire 800 drive (1TB Lacie Rugged) and its been working fine.
I've checked my logs numerous times and the only error I can find is: servermgrd[584]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "v\035\363d".
The exact same error keeps repeating every 10 seconds or so.
I read in another forum that sometime Mavericks Server doesn't like NBI images on external volumes, so I moved them to the standard /Library/Netboot/NetBootSP0 folder on the boot volume and turned off the external drive.
I'm able to NetRestore again now, but the process is far slower then it was previsously and the error above still persists.
I've rebooted the server, stopped and restarted the services, made sure no changes have been made on the network, and fully updated the server via software update.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

I post some other error.
I don't understand why some times when I reboot I don't get any errors and why some Ive this:

Hi Jyo1105,
Thanks for your question. Based on my research and experiences, the issue may be caused by you set the @CenterID
is a multiple values parameter.
If in this condition, you couldn’t use the expression of
Parameters!CenterID.Value directly, you
should use a join() function on the parameter to merge the whole values, or add a sequence number behind the expression to use a specific value, just like this:
=join(Parameters! CenterID.Value) or
=Parameters! CenterID.Value(0)
If your issue still exsits, please feel free to let me know.
Thanks,

SleepServicesD[68]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, ""

I have an iMac late 2013 which hangs after one night in sleep mode. The only way to get it back working again is to power cycle it (5 sec power button)
It is a late 2013 21'' imac with 16GB RAM, and a fusion drive, with Mavericks installed.
When I look in the console the following entries appear just before the reboot:
10/10/14 00:45:17,000 kernel[0]: [0x2e0685000, 0x100000]
10/10/14 00:45:17,000 kernel[0]: [0x2e07c5000, 0x80000]
10/10/14 00:45:17,000 kernel[0]: [0x2e0885000, 0x100000]
10/10/14 00:45:17,000 kernel[0]: [0x2e09c5000, 0x180000]
10/10/14 08:15:58,000 bootlog[0]: BOOT_TIME 1412921758 0
A lot of kernel messages, this is always the same. Just before the kernel messages appear these messages:
10/10/14 00:44:50,000 kernel[0]: AppleThunderboltNHI::prePCIWake - power up complete - took 0 us
10/10/14 00:44:50,000 kernel[0]: AppleThunderboltHAL::earlyWake - complete - took 0 milliseconds

10/10/14 00:45:17,000 kernel[0]: [0x1530d2000, 0x13000]
These messages are always Thunderbold related. When I look in to the logs these events occur regularly, also when the system does not hangs over night. Today I discovered the following. Just before the crash there is an IOUnserialize error that is related to Sleep :
10/10/14 00:44:21,874 SleepServicesD[68]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "P ��".
Just after restart it generated several similar error, as:
10/10/14 08:16:19,760 configd[18]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "P ��".
I am not sure but it seems like that the crashes are more likely to occur when both me and my wife are logged in to the system. My wife is using Parallels desktop 9 with windows 8.1. And it seems that the hangs occur the night after she worked for multiple hour on the virtual machine, but I have to stress that this is just a feeling, I am not sure if that is the cause of the problems. Maybe working for extensive periods is the cause not the virtual machine.
I am wondering did anyone other experience this and what worked for you? I am tired of the hard reboots. Today even the keyboard had crashed (apple wired keyboard with numerical input) I had to unplug it for a while (several minutes) before it started working again. The USB ports were fine after reboot. I tested them with another wired keyboard, while the other one was connected and not working. Switching ports did not help, thus that problem was really keyboard related.
I hope someone has any ideas.
Thanks in advance!

To be sure I reinstalled Mavericks again, the first night exactly the same. This morning the imac did not wake up from sleep again. I checked the logs after a hard reboot. Exactly the same issue as above
It contained multiple FIXME entries. The SleepService was the first FIXME that appeared in the log and is followed by multiple FIXMEs from various sources:
11/10/14 03:05:29,052 SleepServicesD[71]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "Q
��".
11/10/14 09:25:45,215 configd[17]: FIXME: IOUnserialize has detected a string that is not valid UTF-8, "1 � ".

You need a SIM card from the carrier your phone is locked to. If you are trying to use a SIM card from a different carrier, that is why you are getting the error message. Either get a supported sim or request that your phone be unlocked by contacting that carrier.

You need to use a FULL OUTER JOIN instead an OUTER JOIN for that.
Just curious, why do you need to use dbms_output instead of running the SQL query with additional conditions (the if part of your procedure)?. You can use it twice, one to insert the ones that match, and one for selecting the others that do not match.

Method needed to identify Contacts that are not valid from the Comp Screen

Problem
My Company has 65k contacts in the system, we do not delete contacts that are no longer at company, as when we buy data our data in some cases will be more up to date that the third party data available on the market. This then means when a user looks at a company record and the related contacts, he has to hover the cusor over each of the contacts to check if they are valid or not.
Goal
When a user looks at the contacts linked to the company the following fields will be presnt:
Contact Valid
Contact Leave Date.
This will then mean the user will be able to see without looking which contacts are valid and which are not.
Problems
I have tried to create a contact page layout with the fields needed however the only fields avaiable are as follows:
Company ID
Company Name
Company Status
Contact ID
Contact Name
Contact Roles
Location
Primary
Can anybody help?

Thanks for the reply.
However I think I didn't make myself clear in my post in terms of the problem. The problem I have is that when a user looks at a company (account) record the user see the following information in relation to which of the available contacts to select "Primary,Last & First name,Job Title, Contact Role, Work Phone and Email". However none of these fields show if the contact is valid or if they have a leave date.
Both Contact Valid and Contact Leave date have been set up in the system within the contact record. I want to change the layout and have spent hours in the following screens and functions.
Page layout Management
Company/Contact Related Information layout
Related Information Setup
Company/Contact page layout
The problem is the screens/functions where I think I could add the two above mentioned fields end up with me turning the fileds into required or read only fields, and the section where I want to drag in the fields to display has the two fields missing.

Synth.dtd not valid XML

Hi. I'm trying to make my own Look&Feel with Synth. I'm reading stuff here, and nothing will work because [synth.dtd|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/plaf/synth/doc-files/synth.dtd] is all messed up and won't validate in NetBeans.

This is not unusual to see if you are missing a tag, the tag ordering is
wrong or you have some extra characters in the descriptor.
I reproduced the same error by adding the invalid characters <> before

Ok, so here is my configuration. The idea is that I need some specific permissions set on a specific registry key on my sql servers. This is so I can do the SQL LowPriv monitoring. I'm just setting one key right now, premise is once this is working I can
then duplicate that for the remaining keys.

When I paste that into the prompt it appears to be perfectly happy

In fact, the resulting MOF file looks ok to me

When I attempt to start the configuration on my local machine, which has the key this is what I get

lol...well so it's a different error now, I removed a credential param that I wasn't using, so now i'm left with an & that I can't seem to find anywhere... at any rate...so now my issue has become where is the bad &?I'm going back to the internets
to see if there is something akin to this error, and i'm open to any questions the most pressing one is why are my scriptblocks all smooshed together? well, early on I was wondering if random whitespace and extra characters were mucking up the waters. I may
actually dial down the script and see if I can add things until I get the error as well.

I looked at the first link, and it looks like you might be missing quotes around the $Node.ActionAccount part of the comparison, which would cause the script block creation to fail. Maybe change the sections that look like this:
Where-Object {$_.IdentityReference -eq $Node.ActionAccount}
to this:
Where-Object {$_.IdentityReference -eq '$Node.ActionAccount'}
If you're looking to do permission changes with DSC, I'm actually looking for testers for my
PowerShellAccessControl module. The 3.0 beta has two DSC resoruces: cAccessControlEntry (lets you make sure an ACE is present or absent) and cSecurityDescriptor (lets you specify an SDDL string for an object). The current cSecurityDescriptor is going to
be called cSecurityDescriptorSddl in a future release, and a new cSecurityDescriptor is going to be added that lets you control the different sections without using SDDL. If you were to use it, I think you could change your configuration to the following (at
least for the permission part):
Configuration SQLLowPrivRegistry {
param(
[string[]] $ComputerName = "localhost"
Import-DscResource -Module PowerShellAccessControl
Node $ComputerName {
cAccessControlEntry TopLevelActionAccountPermissions {
Ensure = "Present"
Path = "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\"
ObjectType = "RegistryKey"
AceType = "AccessAllowed"
AccessMask = ([System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights]::ReadKey)
Principal = "DOMAIN\SqlDefaultAction_sa"
What you're doing should work just fine, so I'm not saying you need to use mine. If you do get a chance to look at it, though, please let me know what you think (or if it even works). There are two scripts in the examples folder of the module that demo more
with the two resources (hopefully that will do until I finalize the documentation).
