I have checked the conversion of your hexadecimal string to character set and it is as follows
Hexadecimal 6369623631737E31
Character cib61s~1
So the problematic character is ~ . Also convert it to UPPER using formula operator and then reload the data .

Hope this helps to all.

Member name contain invalid character '&'

Hi,
I am trying to deploy the HFM application in EPMA 11.1.2.1 and am getting the below error..
"Member Name 'XXXX&xxxx' contains invalid character '&'"
I thought member names support '&' character?
Any idea?
Thanks in advance!
PM

Looks like they have a catch-all down further in the HFM admin guide:
Loading Metadata_
When you load a metadata file, Financial Management replaces metadata with new metadata
from the load file. Replacement is useful for making minor changes to the metadata, such as
adding an account. For example, if your application includes a North America entity and you
load entities from a metadata file, the attributes for the North America entity in the file replace
the attributes for the North America entity in the application.
Note: Do not use the ampersand ( & ) character in a metadata file. If you do, an error occurs.
Loading large metadata files on the Web can result in a proxy timeout error. If this occurs,
increase the Web proxy timeout setting or use the Win32 client to load the file.

Packaging error 2 (The media contains invalid NALU length)

Hi,
I am trying to publish live stream from Adobe Flash client that can be viewed on iOS device. One known issue is that the Flash client does not support AAC audio encoder when it publishes a stream, but AAC is required for iOS viewing. Thus I am using ffmpeg to transcode the audio to work around this issue. The setup looks like following:
Publish(h.264+Speex) Pull Re-Publish(h.264+AAC)
Flash Client Publisher -------------------> AMS -----> ffmpeg ---------------------> AMS
The command line I use for ffmpeg is like this:
ffmpeg -re -i rtmp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/livepkgr/orgstream -c:v copy -c:a aac -strict -2 -f flv rtmp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/livepkgr/livestream
This setup works perfectly if the original stream is published by Flash Media Live Encoder client. However, if the stream is published by a web page using Flash ActionScript client, the iOS won't play the stream. The root cause is that HLS module failed to generate the proper TS file. I get the following error in the Apache server log.
[Sat Aug 17 15:56:50 2013] [error] mod_hlshttp [500]: Packaging error 2 (The media contains invalid NALU length) when processing /hls-live/streams/livepkgr/events/_definst_/livestream/livestreamNum0.ts
I've tried various things to narrow down the possibilities regarding what could be wrong. Here are some of my observations:
1) The problem has nothing to do with audio. If I do audio streaming only, it works well. So in various experiement, I simplified the problem by doing video stream only. When using ffmpeg to transcoding, I used '-an' to disable audio stream.
2) If I use ffmpeg to save the stream into MP4 file first (say 1 minute long), and then publish that file, I got the same issue when iOS device is trying to retrieve content. The MP4 file generated is fine though. I can view it using VLC.
3) If I use ffmpeg to transcode H.264 to H.264 (i.e. Not to use the "copy" transcoder), it then will work. However, because of the CPU usage constraints in my requirement, I cannot adopt this approach. Here is the command line that works:
ffmpeg -re -i rtmp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/livepkgr/orgstream -vcodec libx264 -b:v 1000k -c:a aac -strict -2 -f flv rtmp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/livepkgr/livestream
4) In all those experiments, the m3u8 file are generated correctly. In the stream directory I always saw meaningful size for f4f and f4x files.
5) The iOS client is able to view the original stream fine if the original stream is H.264 video only stream. (The 'orgstream', not the one republished by ffmpeg).
6) In all those experiements, a regular Flash viewer client is able to play the live stream with no issue.
Since I don't have access to source code to the Apache module for HLS (mod_hlshttp), I don't know how to proceed further. I appreciate any help from Adobe engineering team who have access to source code, and give me some hint what could go wrong. I can also provide further information regarding the published stream, e.g. the generated MP4 if it can help.
Thanks and best regards,
Jason

CO-PA Extract error (0MATERIAL contains invalid character)

Hi all,
I have a question regarding to the extraction of CO-PA data from R3.
The loading has this error:
Record 91 :Value 'ABA0101114612024# ' (hex. ' ') of characteristic 0MATERIAL contains invalid
It seems the material master has a invalid character at the end. I already cleaned up the material masters (mara, makt..etc). But I still got this error.
Is any one know how should I fix this problem? Is there a way to find out the source table of the extractor, so that I can make the change directly in database level?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Manfred,
Thanks.
The problem is that we have several (about 5) entries having the same error, I don't know what eactly the ending invalid character is (I can see a "?" in text editor, a "#" in BW).
Is it a way to correct the COPA posted data? I am trying to find out what table is actually storing it, but no idea...

Error: Topic ID "Ầ‾Â»Â¿#define" contains invalid characters.

Hi,
I have just upgraded to RoboHelp for Word 9. When I compile I get the message:
Warning - HC3033: File RhubarbRhubarb.hh: The Topic ID "Ầ‾Â»Â¿#define" contains invalid characters. The #, =, >, @, !, or \Â˚haracters cannot be used in a WinHelp version 4.0 source file.
I have 7 files in the project and there is one of these error messages for each file. I checked the .hh files and there is nothing corresponding to that as a Topic ID. I don't use any special characters in my Topic IDs anyway.
It doesn't seem to be having any effect on my generated project but I'm uneasy about unexplainable error messages. Does anyone have an idea why they're there and how to remove them please?
regards
Christina

To the best of my knowledge (haven't used Rh for Word for a long time) the only solution is sleuthing the elusive illegal character.

ITunes music contains invalid character

I've been using iTunes, but now when I launch it tries to configure every time, and then gives the error message 'The folder path 'iTunes Music' contains an invalid character. I've also tried unistalling iTunes, but get the same message. Another message is then given saying 'fatal error during installation'.

It usually indicates that there's damage to the iTunes installation database in your iTunes.msi file for your current version of iTunes.
Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes again. Does the install go through properly this time? If so, are you able to launch iTunes without the error message?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

ODS Can't Activate by invalid character

Hi all,
I have a problem about ODS can't activate.
I have loaded a full request from SAP R/3 into ODS (SAP BW) is completed but my request can't activate. I have tried check error and I met error display as
Value 'ELAMES   ' (hex. '454C414D45530D0A2020205B ') of characteristic ZREQUSTER contains invalid character
and then I check error value at PSA that its have ##   at this value as "ELAMES    ##"
My solution is
1. I deleted request at ODS.
2. go to PSA and deleted ## at error value and then go to RSA1 > PSA > Start update Immediatly to data target
this solution can resolve this problem but its manual solution.
Please help me about better solution for resolve this problem.
Hope its help

Do a search!!!
Here is some regex code I use..

w_rex = '[\f\n\r\t\v]'.
* In the above declaration
*\f = form feed, \n = newline, \r = carrige return, \t = horizontal tab,
*\v = vertical tab
replace all occurrences of regex w_rex in w_desc_uc1 with '|'
REPLACEMENT COUNT w_count.
if w_count > 0.
do w_count times.
    replace '|' with space into w_desc_uc1.
enddo.

'The folder path "C:" contains an invalid character.' ERROR AS I INSTALL iTunes

hi
first of all, merry xmas to all that celebrate! i hope you had/have a memorable day!
and wishing everyone the very best for the new year.
Now, I have a problem when I try to install iTunes on my computer. I'm running:
- Windows Vista (Home Basic)
- iTunes 10.5.2.11
i have sufficient hard-drive space and sufficient ram. its definetly NOT from that. I originially DID HAVE iTunes already installed on my computer, but I was frequently having problems with establishing a connection through my iPhone 4. So I thought it would be a good idea to delete it and try downloading a new version, then install it fresh!
I have some computer skills and knowledge, and i know how "most" things work and run. But now I am totally stuck. I run the iTunes software to be installed, but the installer keeps giving me an error message and NOT installing. I've done all the easy and required steps after I deleted the original version of iTunes from my computer, and now I need help from someone who really knows their stuff in IT and computer software. I have a feeling it may be a string of codes that are corrupt or significantly different to what they should be, but thats just my guess! cos like i already said, ive tried all the common fixes already but have been unsuccessful thus far. Some of the things I did were:
- Restart the computer, re-boot, login to Windows, run the iTunes installation
- Turn off the computer, wait 10 minutes, re-boot and then run the iTunes installation
- Delete ALL the "Apple" company software that was still installed on my computer (QuickTime, iPhone Utility, iPod, Bonjour, etc etc)
- Confirm my "User Account Control" is OFF
- Run the iTunes installation file from my secondary windows login account (which has "Administrator" privilages)
- Create a new windows login account, turn off the UAC (User Account Control protection), then try installing iTunes
- Run disk-error checks on my hard-drives incase there are missing/corrupt/misplaced files that needed repair
etc etc etc etc
Nothing worked! THIS BELOW IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM I KEEP GETTING WHEN I DOUBLE-CLICK ON THE iTUNES INSTALLER:
- Double click on the iTunes install icon
- The "Trusted File Security Warning/Confirmation" window appears, requesting I confirm to Run or Cancel the software installation. I click on "Run"
- A horizontal grey bar appears in the middle of the screen, and quickly fills up green
- Then a small installation windows appears (Windows Installer) that writes "Preparing to Install". Then it very fast writes a couple different sentences (which is normal), specifically the sentences are "Performing installation checks" and "Checking spacing requirements".
- immedietly after the previous step, another window appears and I hear the "error" audio tone. The ERROR MESSAGE has the Yellow Triangle logo with an exclamation mark in the middle, and beside it displays the following text (and Ive attatched the screen shot too):
THE FOLDER PATH "C:" CONTAINS AN INVALID CHARACTER
then below this message theres the "OK" button which I have no choice but to click on. then the next window that appears is as follows (see screenshot), and it reads:
iTunes Installer Completed
The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured.
Errors occured during installation. Your system has not been modified.
Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit
Please I beg you guys to help me, I will be extremely grateful for ALL and ANY advice/tips/assistance/solutions I receive. And would owe you one for sure!!
Please feel free to write your opinions and thoughts on what I could do different, as Ive used up all my knowledge regarding the matter, and have seriously hit a brick wall now.
Thanks so so so much, and once again I wish everyone the absolute very best!
regards.
PS. Replies can be posted in this thread, otherwise even sent to me via email if you wish to do otherwise. My email address is: [email protected]

Resolution:
Check for the existence of a hidden folder named %appdata% in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Application Virtualization\Client folder. (You will need to un-check the folder options box in windows explorer for "Hide
protected operating system files" to see it)
If the hidden %appdata% folder exists, delete it.
Proceed to uninstall the App-V client
After a clean uninstall and removal of remnants of the client, reinstall the client again and apply the latest hotfix available (Hotfix 2 for SP2 at a minimum).

IPOD Updater - Error 1324 - The Folder path contains an invalid character

I tried to install ITUNES on an external HD (I didn't want to slow down my computer by putting all of my music on my internal HD). ITunes installed and then crashed. I removed all traces of ITUNES and IPOD that I could find and went to install ITUNES again on my regular internal drive. Now it goes through the installation and REMEMBERS my IPOD serial number (so obviously I can't find all of the files to remove) but doesn't give me a choice of where to install (it still must be trying to install to my external HD) the ITUNES. All I get is the following Error message:
IPOD Updater - Error 1324 - The Folder path "Program Files" contains an invalid character
Does anyone have a solution out there?
Thanks in advance!
MonsterProb

IPOD Updater - Error 1324 - The Folder path "Program Files" contains an invalid character
Interesting. It's choking on the old iPod updater application. (iPod software updates are no longer handled by a standalone application ... that function was folded into iTunes beginning with iTunes 7.0.0.70.)
Let's try the following procedure.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any entries called "ipod for windows \[date]" or "ipod updater \[date]" or just "ipod for windows" in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
Quit out of CleanUp, and restart the PC.
Does an itunes install go through properly after that?
