  • Cannot mount database after force server restart.

    The server is hung. After forced reboot all databases was successfully mounted except one public folder, that gives an error:
    MapiExceptionSearchEvaluationInProgress: Unable to mount database. (hr=0x80004005, ec=1177)
    The error ocured on Exchange Server 2010 SP3 Standard Update Rollup 5.
    Update to Rollup 7 does not solve the problem.
    Eseutil 14.03 shows no errors.

    Move all the log files include all other files to another location and try to mount it.
    Post the update

  • Urgent - Customization not working after patch

    One of our contractor worked on a extension, who created a new controller on a Table Layout: (UpdateKffRN) and called it by personalizing the table layout to call the new class. This was when we were on RUP3. Now we are on RUP4 and have issues although I can see that the table layout points to the new controller but it doesn't do the functionality. Please help me in fixing this problem.

    What kind of extension was done? is it executing in a way like the original controller or in a different way?

  • Having issue restarting database after switching mount point

    We needed to change the mount point of the disk that has our mount points, so instead of going to /opt, it going to /opt/san/mdb4. I have created a control file to use to start up the database, but I'm still having issues. Here is part of the control file:
    CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE SET DATABASE "INVEST" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
    MAXLOGFILES 64
    MAXLOGMEMBERS 2
    MAXDATAFILES 254
    MAXINSTANCES 16
    MAXLOGHISTORY 1815
    LOGFILE
    GROUP 1 (
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db02/oradata/INVEST/redo01a.log',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/redo01b.log'
    ) SIZE 50M,
    etc....
    DATAFILE
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db02/oradata/INVEST/XXX.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/XXX01.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db07/oradata/INVEST/XXX02.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db07/oradata/INVEST/XXX03.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/XXX04.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/XXX05.dbf',
    '/opt/san/mdb4/db03/oradata/INVEST/XXX06.dbf',
    etc...
    CHARACTER SET UTF8
    All of the files are in the correct spot. I have also edited the init.ora file so that the directories are correct. This is the error that I get every time:
    CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE SET DATABASE "INVEST" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
    ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed
    ORA-00449: background process 'DBW0' unexpectedly terminated with error 7446
    ORA-07446: sdnfy: bad value '' for parameter .
    I am running Oracle 8.1.7 on Sun Solaris 8 (SunOS 5.8).
    Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Let me know.

    According to error message you have syntax error in your create statement. double check it.
    ORA-07446: sdnfy: bad value 'string' for parameter string.
    Cause: The directory specified as the value for the stated parameter could not be used.
    Action: Make sure the directory you have specified is a valid directory/file specification.

  • Not auto-connecting on restart or after sleep - help

    I have an Apple Airport Extreme router configured with 128 WEB.
    When I start up my MacBook I have to go up to the Airport status and select the network. Since I have already entered and saved the password, it connects and then all is fine - until it sleeps or I shut it down. Then I have to go back up to the status icon and reselect. There are no other wireless networks detectable.
    Now what is weird is that I have an intel iMac and it always connects. When I go to the sys prefs > Network on my iMac it says by default join Automatic. But on the sys prefs > Network on my MacBook it only gives me the option of joining a specific network. I tell it to automatically join that network but it doesn't do it!
    Both OSs are up to date.
    Any thoughts?

    That happened to me on both my macbooks i just found a fix go to your network settings and have it only connect to prefered networks then ad your netowork 5 times this causes the computer to keep rescaninggng

  • SSRS 2008 R2 Services not restarting automatically after reboot

    SSRS 2008 R2  Reporting instance not restarting automatically after patches install.  Is there a way to resolve the issue

    Hi,
    Follow this article to resolve the issue:
    Reporting Services service doesn't start after the installation of MS12-070 security patch
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mariae/archive/2012/11/12/reporting-services-service-doesn-t-start-after-the-installation-of-ms12-070-security-patch.aspx
    Workaround 1:
    Modify the registry to increase the default time-out value for the service control manager. To increase this value to 60 seconds, follow these steps:
    1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit,and then click OK.
    2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control.
    3.  In the right pane, locate the ServicesPipeTimeout entry.
    Note If the ServicesPipeTimeout entry does not exist, you must créate it. To do this, follow these steps:
    a.On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
    b.Type ServicesPipeTimeout, and then press ENTER.
    c.Right-click ServicesPipeTimeout, and then click Modify.
    d.Click Decimal, type 60000, and then click OK.
    This value represents the time in milliseconds before
    Restart the computer for the changes to take effect. Check that SSRS services can be started now.
    You cannot start SQL Server Reporting Services after you apply the update that is discussed in KB 2677070

  • Satelite T130 cannot restart (reboot)

    I have Satelite T130-10G PST3AE bios v2.7 and it cannot restart.
    After restart the screen blanks the fan makes becames noisy for short time and that is all.
    To start it again it is necessary to switch it off and on. It starts normaly.
    Restarts were attempted from Win7, Fedora Linux, Bios setup (when saved), ctrl-alt-del before operating system start (boot menu). The result was always as was described.
    Thank you for any hint.

    I think it is hardware related issue since this issue seems to appear using all the different systems (windows, linux)
    But did you already try the new OS installation? If not do that!
    Back to the idea where the hardware could malfunction:
    In my opinion firstly the RAM modules should be tested and checked. Since the RAM modules could cause such or similar issues, I think this is a good idea to check this part.
    The best would be the usage of new, good tested modules.
    But if motherboard is affected, the new modules would not be helpful very much :(

  • I have successfully downloaded lion, and after I click restart, the message " you hard disc is corrupted and cannot be repaired. Please restart" keeps looping. Help !

    I have successfully downloaded lion, and after I click restart, the message " you hard disc is corrupted and cannot be repaired. Please restart" keeps looping. Help !

    First try restarting your Mac into "safe mode", which will run the equivalent of a Disk Utility "repair disk" operation.  If your Mac shuts down during that process, you'll have to try something a little more powerful (and more expensive), such as DiskWarrior.

  • Creating new databases after latest security patch applied

    10.2.0.4
    If I create a database AFTEr applying the opatch for the October 2009 security patch, do I need to also run:
    @catbundle.sql cpu apply
    Or is it included in the create database? I use the DBCA to create new databases.

    user8574962 wrote:
    This is what Oracle states on metalink doc id: 422303.1
    Once the bundle patch or the Critical Patch Update (CPU) patch is applied on an ORACLE_HOME should you run post-installation scripts for every newly created Oracle database using the same ORACLE_HOME?
    Solution
    This should be documented in the patch's README as the answer will vary with each patch.
    If the patch's README is not documented, then the Post Install tasks should be run.
    And this is what the OCTCPU09 README says:
    3.3.3 Post Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of CPUOct2009 in the Oracle Home
    These instructions are for both non-RAC environments and RAC environments when a database is created or upgraded after the installation of CPUOct2009.
    You must execute the steps in Section 3.3.2.1, "Loading Modified .sql Files into the Database" for any new database only if it was created by any of the following methods:
    Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
    Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database
    Hope that helps.Point taken that it could vary by patchset, but those particular instructions quoted square exactly with what I had said. To quote with emphasis:
    "You must execute the steps . . . for any new database *only if* it was created by any of the following methods . . ."
    And what are those methods? Creating the database from a sample (pre-patch) database. If one uses dbca to create a 'custom' database, the resulting scripts will start from scratch with a CREATE DATABASE command - no pre-patch version sample or seed database involved.

  • Azure cannot restart after chkdsk

    Azure cannot restart after chkdsk...Please let us know how to get it running again. Thanks.

    Hi,
    From your query I understand that there is an issue related to the VHD file of the Virtual Machine. 
    To narrow down on the issue, Firstly, You might want to add this disk as a Data Disk and run chkdsk on it. In order to establish the same, please refer to the below steps
    Delete the Virtual Machine by retaining the associated disks
    Save the Attached Disks
    Go to any other VM in running state /  Create a new VM and attach the Data Disk
    To attach an Existing Data Disk, please follow the link below
    http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-windows-attach-disk/#attachexisting
    Once the Disk has been added, run chkdsk on that particular disk and update us about the outcome.
    Hope this helps !
