Unable to retrieve device ID with udev daemon

I've recently switched from Ubuntu to Arch (did not regret it yet ). Currently, I'm trying to set up a backup. I have not done anything like that before so I cannot tell if my problem is Arch-specific but I guess, it's not.
Since I want to backup to an external HDD with no permanent connection to my laptop, I want a backup script to be triggered each time when the HDD is plugged in. So I created an udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules (had to created that file since this directory was empty):
ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="60a6", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/makebak.sh"
What this rule should do: Execute the script makebak.sh each time I plug in the device with vendor ID 04e8 and product ID 60a6.
What this rule does: Nothing.
The output of lsusb for the device in question is
Bus 002 Device 014: ID 04e8:60a6 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd
I tested some things:
1. It works if I try ACTION=="add", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/makebak.sh", but then the script is executed something like 10 times for each device I plug in. This rule is just too generic. But it proves that udev seems unable to find the device ID.
2. I've found the command udevadm test that shows me some info about my device. However, the output is different if I execute it as root. I noticed that as root there are no informations concerning the vendor and the product id, but as regular user I can see them listed. I don't really know what this tool does but could the reason why my udev rule doesn't work be connected with that observation?
Here is the output of udevadm test /sys/block/sdb as regular user:

Thanks in advance!

Sure, a loop that waits up to a certain number of seconds for you to mount the device is far more preferrable. Something like...
#!/bin/bash
# max time to wait
timeout=60
# label of device to wait for
devlabel=blackhole
# where to look for it
devmount=/mnt/backup
dev_mounted() {
mountpoint -q "$devmount" &&
[[ $(findmnt -runo LABEL "$devmount") = "$devlabel" ]]
if ! dev_mounted; then
printf "==> Waiting %s seconds for %s to be mounted on %s" "$devlabel" "$devmount"
until dev_mounted; do
sleep 1
if (( --timeout == 0 )); then
print "==> ERROR: device didn't show up after %s seconds!\n" "$timeout"
exit 1
fi
done
fi
# do backup stuff here...

    Hello, i know this a few minutes laiter but, guess what, i never unplugged the cable or closed the updater application and now its updated despite what the progtam pretened to tell me. in some kind of weird way it updated the phone. Don't ask me how or why. let Nokia sort it out. My advice, let it stay at the error message and keep the cable connected for about 30 min. that is basicly what happened.

  • XML Report completes with error due to REP-271504897:  Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.

    We are in the middle of testing our R12 Upgrade.  I am getting this error from the invoice XML-based report that we are using in R12. (based on log).  Only for a specific invoice number that this error is appearing.  The trace is not showing me anything.  I don't know how to proceed on how to debug where the error is coming from and how to fix this.  I found a patch 8339196 that shows exactly the same error number but however, I have to reproduce the error in another test instance before we apply the patch.  I created exactly the same order and interface to AR and it doesnt generate an error.  I even copied the order and interface to AR and it doesn't complete with error.  It is only for this particular invoice that is having an issue and I need to get the root cause as to why.  Please help.  I appreciate what you all can contribute to identify and fix our issue.  We have not faced this issue in R11i that we are maintaining right now for the same program which has been running for sometime.  However, after the upgrade for this particular data that the user has created, it is throwing this error REP-271504897.

    Hi,
    Check on this note also : Purchasing Reports Fail When Changing Output To XML REP-0002 REP-271504897 REP-57054 (Doc ID 1452608.1)
    If you cant reproduce the issue on other instance, apply the patch on the test instance and verify all the funcionality related to the patch works OK. Then move the patch to production. Or you can clone the prod environment to test the patch.

  • I suddenly am unable to retrieve my emails.  I discussed this with my Internet provider, but still get an error message and can't access my emails.  Any suggestions???

    I am unable to retrieve my emails since yesterday.  I called Time Warner Cable, my Internet provider, but they could not help me; they stated that the settings had changed, since they were upgrading.  I adjusted the settings, but still get an error message: 
              Alert
              There may be a problem with the mail server or network.  Verify the settings for account "Mail 1" or try again.
              The server returned the error:  The connection to the server "smtp.roadrunner.com" on port 110 timed out.
    I changed the server, and the port, as Time Warner Cable tech rep recommended, but to no avail.  They recommended I delete my current email account and recreate it, but that I check with Apple first, because I might lose my contact list (and any email messages I'd previously saved!?).  They suggested Apple might be able to tell me how to not lose the contacts, emails, profile.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, I have been unable to sync devices (specifically ipad mini and iphone 4s) to my MId 2013 Imac . They wil rapidly connect and disconnect, and I'm unable to do anything with the device. This happens with both USB ports.  Any suggestions?
    MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.9.1)

    Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

  • "Unable to open device (read failure)!" message with Samsung

    I have a Samsung ML-2510 (fairly new printer) plugged into my Airport Extreme (the latest -g version before the new -n version) and seem to be having problems with printing. After powering up the Airport, the computer will allow one job to print. After that, the print status window gets to "processing job, 7%" then shows "Unable to open device (read failure)!". The only solution to get it printing again is to reset the Airport.
    I've tried reinstalling the driver from Samsung.com, changing some wireless settings on the airport, restarting the computer (and printer), and even changing the USB cable. None of the above has worked.
    Any solutions?

    I had a similar issue with a ML-2010 after upgrading from 10.4 to 10.5 but using a Linksys wireless router rather than Airports. The steps below worked for me so I hope these are of some help to you as well. I stumbled across these in the Airport for Windows forum.
    1. Opened print/fax pref
    2. Went to + (add printer)
    3. Went to IP and selected HP Jetdirect (not IPP, not LDP)
    4. Determined the IP address for my Belkin wired print server (I determined this from looking in the Windows printer setup on my Windows laptop that printed through the print server to the ML-2010 with no problems. Initially I wasn't sure if the problem was with the print server, the printer or OS 10.5)
    5. Typed the IP address in "Address" back in Fax/print.
    6. Left the "Name" as it appeared.
    7. Print Driver I used was ML-2010 (look in M's), not any Samsung listed driver (in the S's).
    8. I didn't have to reboot anything but I've seen reports that some people had to power cycle their print server and sometimes the printer as well.
    I hope this helps.

  • Conflict Resolver Sync Error - Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server

    So I have been using iTunes with my iPhone 3GS and now my iPhone 4 to sync with my Outlook for many years now  and it has been flawless.
    I recently bought a new iPad and started syncing it as well.
    Now as of late, after every 2 or 3 syncs, I get an error from iTunes displaying the Conflict Resolver and it says there are 42 sync conflicts.
    When I try use the Review Now button it shows up and the issues are between my iPhone and Outlook and are only related to contacts.
    As soon as I try to choose which record to resolve, the window immediately disappears without giving me a chance to finish and I get another dialog window with the error:
    Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server.
    Please try again the next time the conflict resolver window is presented.
    When I try to sync again it seems to be fine.  But then after I sync my iPad and theny iPhone again it shows up and it still won't let me resolve the conflicts.
    I have tried the following:
    1) Rest Sync History on all devices
    2) I have had iTunes replace all the contacts on the iPad from iTunes
    3) I have changed the conflict resolver to only notify when 50% of the data will be changed
    I have had no such luck.
    If I add a contact to Outlook or to my iPhone and then sync it seems to be syncing the new addtions correctly.  However, I cannot get this issue with this 42 conflicts resolved for some reason.  This has been going on for a month now.

    Here is the solution. 
    Rationale: You want to be able to have the dates on your items (notes, contacts) on your iphone to be the same as on outlook.  This will eliminate any sync conflicts.  You will also notice that if you modify something on the iphone and sync, you will lose the modification you made.
    Steps:
    1) In outlook, export the data (contacts, notes) to a CSV file
    2) Delete you notes/contacts in outlook
    3) Sync your iphone and select replace information on this iPhone (in iTunes)
    4) Now your contacts and notes will be empty on both your iPhone and Outlook
    5) Now import your contacts and notes from the CSV files back into outlook.  What this does is put the current date and time on every individual item
    6) Sync your iPhone to iTunes normally
    7) everything will work correctly now with no sync issues and no conflicts.

    Did you just recently reactivate the Voyager after some time of inactivation for that particular phone?  Here is some information on the 3332 error, and you may just be out of luck for getting it fixed   There are several threads about this issue.

Basically during the period of early fall to 3/25/2011, we notified customers that had BREW (older handsets) phones that they needed to access the Get It Now or Media Center catalog before 3/25/2011. 03/25/2011 was the last day to access the catalog to receive a certificate update. If the Media Center was not accessed during this time, the phone was inactive, or the phone had data blocks on the line, it did not receive the certificate update, and will not be able to access the catalog any longer. We tried to be as proactive as possible during this timeframe alerting customers via bill inserts and text alerts (which would not help you if the phone was deactivated). All other portions of the phone will continue to work normally. You can make and receive calls, text message, picture message, go onto the web, and use all other aspects of the phone. The only thing that will no longer work will be the Media Center/Get It Now catalog on the phone.
    Unfortunately, having the phone flashed with new software will not fix the issue. Once the certificate update period has passed, it will not become available again. In order to access the Media Center again, you would need to take a look at getting into a more recent phone.
    This did not affect all of the older phones. Most customers did get the certificate update just fine and can access the Media Center/Get It Now catalog just fine. It is only those who did not receive a certificate update that will run into this. You can tell if you are affected by this by going into menu>settings & tools> and clicking on "My Account" or "My Verizon." If this loads, but Media Center/ Get It Now catalog will not, you are missing your certificate update and will unfortunately not be able to get it to work on this phone again.
    I know I threw a lot of information out at you, but I hope this answers your question.

  • MMS and unable to retrieve content

    i'm having problems with an 8310 on Vodafone that is unable to retrieve the MMS content, has anyone else experienced these sorts of problems. ?

    Look at your Options > Advanced > Service Books.
    Look for two entries on MMS, client and transport, you should have both, do you ?
    Of not, go to Options > Advanced  > Host Routing Table > Menu > Register. See if you receive a Registration message in your Messages folder.
    And, you may need to reboot the device:  With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.

    ISSUE FINALLY RESOLVED!!!!!!
    So, it turns out, I had to restore the iPhone...with a twist! Here are the steps:
    FIRST BACK UP YOUR DEVICE
    1. Go to the library (Hold option, click on "go" in the finder, then go to library)
    2. Go to your iTunes folder in this Library (not application support, the main iTunes folder)
    3. Go to the iX software folder (i.e., iPhone software, iPad software, etc.) and delete the file in this folder
    4. Hook up the phone and then click on restore iPhone.
    At this point, it will redownload the entire OS again. You must then restore the iPhone. As it is downloading the iOS, you can disconnect and use your phone for probably however long you want (I did the restore the same day as the download) and when you are ready you can hook up the phone and restore it.
    THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP FOLLOWS:
    And one many may dislike. Upon restoring the phone, you MUST select "Set-Up as new iPhone"
    You need to make sure you've backed up EVERYTHING elsewhere. 3rd party, non-apple/icloud apps will lose data through this method, and you'll lose all texts, your call history, and super old voicemails. The upside is that, if you've backed up, then you can just restart the process if you forgot something. But seeing as how the popup was interfering with my ability to use iCloud (I couldn't sync anything, such as calendar events, reminders, etc.,  unless I had gone into mail to sign in to iCloud), it was totally worth it....no more popups.
    My only wish is that this thread becomes popular. Many people have this issue and you should only use this method as a super last resort (after trying literally everything I had written previously).

    I am unable to sync some apps with my ipod touch

    See:
    Identifying iPod models
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
