Hey Kyle,
Check your services and see what’s running. This can be done by going to Start>>Run and type “services.msc”. Then look for anything that starts with National Instruments or NI. Look to see if there are any entries running twice or if you are trying to call a service that is already running.

Attempted to start multiple instances of the service

After installing LabVIEW 8.5.1, I keep getting this message after a computer reboot. It does not say what multiple services are running. Anyone seen this before?

Disallow running multiple instances of the same web start application..

on the client? I have an application that is launched on the client by clicking on the link to the JNLP file. The problem is that I don't want the application to launch twice if the user clicks the link twice. Is there a way to keep web start from running multiple instances of the same app?
I don't want to just disable the button after it is clicked because then the user won't be able to get back in if they need to.
Any help out there?
Thanks,
Melanie

The way I do this is to try connect to an obscure port number on the localhost at startup.
if this connection succeeds I assume the app is already running. otherwise the program continues and registers as a server at that port number.
I actually take this a little bit further by registering a web server at this port (I use the Brazil server), That way if the program finds an instance of itself running it can send a message to the web server and ask the program to do something (like start another window if,for instance you wanted to allow this but only within the same VM).

Contribute multiple instances of the same connection appear on login/start screen

I am administering a series of sub-websites under one primary umbrella.
- The Primary Umbrella site does not run under the Contribute Publishing Server
- The secondary (child) sites are managed by the Contribute Publishing Server
- We recently added a user to several of these subsites
- After we added the user, we've had a problem with other user profiles.
- Multiple instances of the same connection will appear upon login on the start screen ( about:startscreen ). However the user seems to only be able to credential to one of them, not both.
I have gone into the user profile directory within Windows directory structure and removed both site dirs. However when restarting and reconnecting, both appear again.
Anyone else have this issue and what is the remedy and fix?

I tried to add a screenshot, however it would not let me upload.
I get: An error occurred while trying to submit your post. Please try again.

Starting multiple wllogic 6.1 services

Hi! I have successfully installed two web logic 6.1 services. However, after starting the first one (using cpu mgt under control panel), then starting the second one, the first stops!! I can continue to start either the first or the second, but not both at the same time! Thanks for any help

Hi,
I want to set all to manual, should I do thisFrom the services, double click on each service and change the startup type from Automatic to Manual.
after that when I shutdown my computer and want to start my oracle application
in which order and how many of the above mentioned services I have to start
please guide meStart the services in the following order:
- OraclevServiceVIS
- OracleVIS_db111_RDBMSTNSListenerVIS
- OracleVIS_nomanTOOLSTNSListenerAPPS_VIS
- Oracle process manager for VIS_noman
- OracleConcMgrVIS_noman
For the shutdown, reverse the order (i.e. start with the concurrent manager, and finally shutdown the database).

How do I prevent a user from opening multiple instances on the same computer?

On the site oldnavyweekly.com there is a .swf that prevents users from opening multiple instances of the site at the same time on the same computer. If you open the site, and try to open it a second time in another window, it won't load. You can't open the site again until the first window is closed. How did they implement this?
From my analysis it is NOT:
1. Cookies - The block still takes place if you try opening it in IE and also try opening it in Firefox simultaneously.
2. Flash Cookies - The block still takes place if I disable flash cookies.
3. IP Based Block - You are not blocked if you open the site on two separate computers with the same outbound IP address. From my analysis, their server does not assist in the block at all.
It seems as if their .swf is creating some kind of global system-wide object that can be detected in other instances of the application on the same machine. How did they implement this?
Thanks!

you're welcome.
actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close. if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

Starting multiple instances of Matlab in Mac OS X Tiger

I am trying to start multiple instances of Matlab in Mac OS X 10.4, that is, there are several users in this machine, and they all need to use Matlab. Right now, only one user is able to do so, when a second user logs into his/her account and they start Matlab, it does not start. Actually, if one user has X11 open (not even Matlab) and another user tries to start Matlab it won't start. I'm not sure if this is a license problem, an X11 problem, or a Matlab problem. To start matlab, I am using the StartMATLAB.app located in the Applications folder. Following are the details for the hardware:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier:
MacPro2,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 3 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 8
L2 Cache (per processor): 8 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MP21.007F.B06
SMC Version: 1.15f3
Serial Number: 157***UPZ
Some information about Mac OS:
System Version: Mac OS X 10.4.11 (8S2167)
Kernel Version: Darwin 8.11.1
The version of X11 is:
X11 1.1.3 - XFree86 4.4.0
I appreciate your help.

See this article: An easy way to run multiple instances of any program.
I believe another alternative is to provide a separate copy of the application in the users own Home folder by placing it in the /Home/Applications/ folder. This may not work for all applications as some simply will not run multiple instances of itself.
Licensing is of course a separate issue as each unique user may require a license, although many licenses only restrict use to one CPU at a time rather than multiple users on a one CPU.

Best practice for multiple instances of the same BEX query

Hi there,
I'm wondering what's the best way to use multiple instances of the same BEX query. Let me explain what I mean:
I have a dashboard with different queries feeding different period of time such as: week to date, month to date and so on. One query for each since it is based on a user exit.
For each query I want to show different data in different sections of my dashboard. Per example: sales per directors or sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week and the like.I tried to connect a simple bar chart via a direct connection but with no success due to the multiple lines generated by the addition of the sales director, customer group, week number and so on.
My question is about the way to connect the different queries efficiently in order to show the different data while avoiding multiple useless lines.
The image above shows the query browser where, per example, for a Month to date query there will be mutiple line for each week as well as one line for each director. If, for two different components, I want to show data per week and data per director or other representation what is the best practice:
Add another instance of the same query and only put the week information and another one will only the director info?
Should I bind those to the excel file and use formulas to make final calculations?
Will there be a performance issues for adding different instances of the same query
I have 6 different queries (read 6 user exit that filters time via user exit).
Depending on the best practices there might be 4 instances for each for a total of 24 instances in the query browser.
I hope my question is clear enough, if not please do not hesitate I'll clarify as much as possible.
Regards,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
Hope this Helps!!!
Sorry if i misunderstood your question.

Stop opening multiple instances of the same application

I am used to having graphic files on my desktop, when editing one I would simply right-click and pick "open with" > Photoshop (which is always open in its own desktop in my computer). Now out of the blue, if I do that, it loads another instance of Photoshop, which is certainly what I don't want. I can have 2, 3, 4 Photoshops running at the same time and editing the same image!
Any idea how to solve this? I searched but all I could find is people wanting the opposite i.e. opening multiple instances of the same app.

Your best bet to prevent this is to detach or unmount this drive; however, you can also try resetting your Mac's launch services, to have it re-scan only the Applications folders on your boot drive for programs to associate with documents and services you are using. Running the following command in the OS X Terminal will kill the current launch services database (its long, but copy and paste the entire line):
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill
Following this, run the following command to seed the database with the apps you currently have installed:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -seed
Note that these changes will only apply when opening documents that have not been specifically assigned to a program. If you find a specific document continues to open the program on the external drive, then you can get info on it and change the associated program in the "Open With" section of the info window. After doing this, you might need to re-run these commands above, as opening the program will register it with OS X's launch services and have it now be available for automatically handling other documents.

Problem:Multiple instances of the same applet on a webpage...

I have an applet which connects to a server to read an XML-file.
I use Doucument to parse the XML-file like this:
String xmlurl="http://www.somesite.com/somexmlpage.php";
Document d =DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder().parse(xmlurl);
(...read the XML-file...)
This works fine.
However, I need multiple instances of the same applet running at the same time on the same webpage.
Now, with multiple applets running at the same time the parsing no loger works. If one applet is doing some parsing and a taskswitch takes place to let another applet run, the applet which is interrupted is not able to continue the parsing as it looses its "incoming data" when another applet reads from the server.
How can different applets affect each other like this?
And how can I fix the problem?
Thanks in advance for any help!!

However, I need multiple instances of the same applet running at the same time on the same webpage.
Why? But okay.Because the the different applets show information about different items.
Now, with multiple applets running at the same time the parsing no loger works. If one applet is doing some parsing and a
taskswitch takes place to let another applet run, the applet which is interrupted is not able to continue the
parsing as it looses its "incoming data" when another applet reads from the server.
How did you determine that's what's happening?By printing out debuginformation.
Each applet prints out a message (System.out.println) when it creates an instance of Document (ie. connects to the server) and the applet also prints out XML-information as the XML-file is processed.
But, actually, I was a bit quick in my first post; The applet doesen't neccesarily loose its "incoming data", but the parser looses the data it is parsing. I can download the data from the server first, and then start parsing it. If a taskswitch happens while one applet is parsing, it looses its data, even if the data is allready downloaded.
I see this since I see another applet making a printout, and when first applet starts again, the parser has lost track of its data.
It works fine if only one applet is running. And everything is fine until the next applets starts; I can see this from the printout.
Again, the appet prints out data as it parses the document. I see the next applet starting to work, and when the first one continues parsing again the printout shows that data is no longer there. It happens everytime the runtime switches to another applet, and it never happens if just one applet is running.
Googeling a little tells me that DocumentBuilder.parse() isn't thread-safe, but this shouldn't have anything to do with it, should it?
Each applet is a separate process, and not different threads in the same process, aren't they? (Not sure how the runtime treats multiple applets...)And secondly, the applets create their own instance of Document anyways.

Use of Multiple instances of the same browser...

Hi folks,
I have a question...
I have inherited a large APEX application, it uses Oracle SSO to log in.
We are migrating the application to a new set of servers and are running regression tests.
The testers are logging in using IE6 and opening multiple instances of the application at the same time on both the oldTest and newTest servers.
So at any one time, there can be:an application Admin user (username ADMINTEST123) logged into the application on oldTest
an application Admin user (username ADMINTEST123) logged into the application on newTest
an application standard user (username TEST123) logged into the application on oldTest
an application standard user (username TEST123) logged into the application on newTestIs this supported?
Could someone tell me or point me toward the documentation or thread that lists what is supported / unsupported for browser use with APEX and SSO?
Thanks in advance,
Gus..

Hi lev,
thanks but sorry, that doesn't really help me, I'm talking about users and their logins, not developers using different browsers while developing apex.
Also, our users are locked down to IE6 for the foreseeable future.
Hi Scott,
I found the following quote from this web site http://aranea.zuavra.net/index.php/80/ about Cookie separation in modern browsers
*4.3. Internet Explorer 6.0*
Finally, Explorer is the one that introduces an interesting quirk. It too has separate settings per machine users, although it cannot make use of multiple profiles for the same user.
The interesting thing is the way it handles session cookies. Normally, long term a.k.a. non-session cookies are stored on disk in the user preferences. However, Explorer has a setting called “browse in new process” which, if enabled, forces a new session with each new window. That’s right, this means that every time you open a new Explorer window it opens a separate process, even though the windows belong to the same user! And, in turn, these processes will NOT share their session cookies.
Note: By “new window” I mean windows started from shortcuts, from Start Menu entries or by calling iexplore.exe directly somehow (from a file manager, for example). Windows started via Control+N or File/New window run in the same process and share session cookies. Also, please note that it’s a lot more likely for users to click their taskbar shortcut when they need a new window than it is to use the File menu or the Control+N shortcut.+
Furthermore, ever since version 5.0 the setting cannot be changed manually, by the user. It is automatically determined by the browser based on how much RAM the machine has. Anything with at least 32 MB of RAM gets the “one window, one process” behaviour, which nowadays means almost all machines.
I have tested the *"new window"* opening methods and found that for IE6 there is NO NEW PROCESS started when the user opens a new window in the following 3 ways:
from an open window, File>New>Window
from an open window, CTRL+N
from an open window, right click>Open in New Window
So from this can I conclude that from what you say and the results above we may get issues if users login and then open new windows in those ways?
Thanks,
Gus..

Multiple instances of the same VI running in parallel

Hi,
I have a timestamping subVI that looks at a counter channel and applies timestamps. I want to create multiple instances of this subVI (8 to be exact) and have them all run in parallel (looking at 8 different channels). Someone gave me the following advice:
>>
Also, in case you want to call multiple instances of the same SubVI, and you want these multiple instances to execute in parallel, you will have to set the SubVI to execute in reentrant mode. Do this by opening the SubVI and going to "Edit >> VI Properties >> Execution" and enable "Reentrant execution".
<<
I've tried this but only my second instance (I started simple with only 2 instances) seems to monitor its channel and pass data along to the queue. I've included my code below, I have two signal simulators which simulate singles coming in on channels 2 and 3. I'm using a PCQI 6602 counter/timer card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance,
Chris

good news! Your reentrant VI is working and all three instances are running (as execution highlighting clearly shows). The problem is going to be an error that is occuring but you don't see because you are ignoring the error clusters internally in the timer. It looks like at one point it was set to quit if an error occurred. That still needs to be there.

Is there any version of Indesign that allows to open multiple instance at the same time

I am using Indesign CS3 to generate the bulk reports automatically(programmatically) using Adobe indesign library . One of the key limitation to this tool is it allows to open only one instance at a time unlike word where multiple instances can be opened at the same time. Is there any adobe indesign too version desktop/server which allows to open multiple instances at the same time. Any help on is appreciated. Thanks.

@PeterG
You said "You might want to examine the End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) for any prohibition against using these two instances at the same time with the same license; the license does permit two installs for the same user that are not used simultaneously." I thought that meant you had read the EULA. It's pretty unambiguous on that point.
For everyone's edification about multiple installations and server use with a standard license here's the relevant text:
2. Software License.
If you obtained the Software and any required serial number(s) from Adobe or one of its authorized
licensees and as long as you comply with the terms of this agreement, Adobe grants you a non-exclusive
license to install and use the Software in a manner consistent with its design and Documentation and as
further set forth below. See Section 16 for specific provisions related to the use of certain products and
components, for example font software, Acrobat, After Effects, Adobe Presenter, Contribute, Adobe
Device Central, Flash Player, Flash Builder, and Adobe Runtimes.
2.1 Limited Use. The Software, or portions of the Software, may allow installation and use without a serial
number. If so, you may install but not use such non-serialized Software on any number of Computers as
part of an organizational deployment plan. Further, you may install and use such non-serialized Software
on any number of Computers for demonstration, evaluation and training purposes only and only if any
Output Files or other materials produced through such use are used only for internal, non-commercial and
non-production purposes. You may not use such non-serialized Software after any applicable time-out
period has ended, unless you input a valid serial number under Section 2.2. ACCESS TO AND USE OF
ANY OUTPUT FILES CREATED WITH SUCH NON-SERIALIZED SOFTWARE IS ENTIRELY AT
YOUR OWN RISK.
2.2 General Use. You may install and use one copy of the Software only on the Permitted Number of your
compatible Computers into which you enter a valid serial number.
2.3 Distribution from Server. You may copy an image of the Software onto Computer file server(s) within
your Internal Network for the purpose of downloading and installing the Software onto Computers within
the same Internal Network for use as permitted by Section 2.1 and 2.2.
2.4 Server Use. You may install the Software on Computer file server(s) within your Internal Network only
for use of the Software initiated by an individual from a Computer within the same Internal Network only
as permitted by Section 2.2. The total number of users (not the concurrent number of users) able to use the
Software on such Computer file server(s) may not exceed the Permitted Number.
By way of example, the foregoing does not permit you to install or access (either directly or through
commands, data or instructions) the Software: (a) from or to a Computer not part of your Internal Network,
(b) for enabling Web hosted workgroups or services available to the public, (c) by any individual or entity
to use, download, copy or otherwise benefit from the functionality of the Software unless licensed to do so
by Adobe, (d) as a component of a system, workflow or service accessible by more than the Permitted
Number of users, or (e) for operations not initiated by an individual user (e.g., automated server
processing).
2.5 Portable or Home Computer Use. Subject to the important restrictions set forth in Section 2.6, the
primary user of the Computer on which the Software is installed under Section 2.2 (“Primary User”) may
install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either a portable Computer or a
Computer located at his or her home, provided that the Software on the portable or home Computer is not
used at the same time as the Software on the primary Computer.
2.6 Restrictions on Secondary Use by Volume Licensees. If the Software was obtained under an Adobe
volume license program (currently known as Adobe Open Options) by any licensee other than an
educational volume licensee, the second copy of the Software made under Section 2.5 must be used solely
for the benefit and business of that volume licensee. For more information about secondary use by volume
licensees, please visit our Web Site at http://www.adobe.com/go/open_options.
There is also language stating that if you have a dual boot or other system capable of running more than one OS you will need a separate license for each platform if you want to run the software on more than one.

When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Please help. My ipod classic could not be recognised by itunes when I connect my ipod to PC. Previously it has been recognised before I updated. This was a while ago now and so I removed all apple files and re installed the latest itunes but am having the same problem.
When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Some anti-virus programs (e.g., McAfee) have this rule that can be invoked under the "maximum protection" settings: PREVENT PROGRAMS REGISTERING AS A SERVICE. If that rule is set to BLOCK, then any attempt to install or upgrade iTunes will fail with an "iPod service failed to start" message.
If you are getting this problem with iTunes, check to see if your anti-virus has this setting and unset it, at least for as long as the iTunes install requires. Exactly how to find the rule and turn it on and off will vary, depending upon your anti-malware software. However, if your anti-virus or anti-malware software produces a log of its activities, examining the log may help you find the problem.
For example, here's the log entry for McAfee:
9/23/2009 3:18:45 PM Blocked by Access Protection rule NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe \REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\iPod Service Common Maximum Protection:Prevent programs registering as a service Action blocked : Create
Note that the log says "Common Maximum Protection: Prevent programs registering as a service". The "Common Maximum Protection" is the location of the rule, "Prevent programs registering as a service" is the rule. I used that information to track down the location in the McAfee VirusScan Console where I could turn the rule off.
After I made the change, iTunes installed without complaint.
