URL link not working on client PCs

Hi All,
I created an APEX application and gave the URL to users to access the app. from their desktop. It worked fine for a while and now I can only access the app. from the server using that URL. Any idea why this is happening?
Albert

This really does not sound like an Apex issue at all.
Can they reach other websites?
Is it an internal hostname or external? i.e.- do they get there by typing a server name or do they have to type a fully qualified url?
Can they ping the host?
I think you may need your IT department to look into this. By that error, the client PC is not even getting a request to the Apex server. Afraid this isn't one for the Apex forum.

  • Target field in Text URL Link not working.

    I'm working with CS6 creating a web-site for a client. The client has giving me a list of Publications to display on a particuter page, which is an overview of all the books that my cleint has published. The details for each book are on individual pages, which I've already created and have URL's for. The idea is to look at the overview page and if you desire, select a book title to view additional details about that particular book.
    For this Overview page I've created a classic text block that contains several URL links.
    Example: "This is information about book 1: URL LINK to BOOK 1 title.  Great Press Book Publisher, 2010.
    This is information about book 2: URL LINK to BOOK 2 Title . Great Press Book Publisher, 2011.
    This is information about book 3: URL LINK to BOOK 3 Title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2012.
    This is information about book 4: URL LINK to BOOK 4 title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2013."
    I've placed the URL links for each respective book in the highlighetd text area for that book, represented by the BLUE text in the above example. The overview page as well as the individual book pages are publised and in my domain on-line.
    Everything works fine with one exception. When I select a book link in the overview page, I want to have a New Browser window appear for that books individual page. Currently, the individual book page appears in the same browser window.
    All, documentation I read says that I can set the "Target" field in Text properties to either NONE or _Blank to get a New Browser Window, but this does not seem to work.
    Breaking up the text into small pieces is not an option, since Flash seems to shift text block positions when they are placed close to one another. I don't know why, it just happens. This makes the site unusable so the text block needs to remain a single text block for appearance reasons.
    So, does anyone know if this is a bug in CS6?
    Or does anyone know how I can get the "Target" setting to work for URL links within a block of text?
    Thanks.

    How are you assigning the links in the text?  Normally if you assign a url to a textfield you can select one of four different targets, none of which is NONE (_blank, _parent, _top, _self)... so I am wondering why what you describe is different than what I'd expect.

  • Javascript links not working on some pcs???

    I have designed this site for a friend and i'm at a stage of real frustration as some of the links on the flash site work fine on Mac but not on PC. To relay her fears, I have asked a PC friend of mine to test the links on his PC and he came back saying they all worked fine. I even tested it myself in an internet Café and they worked but strangely all my friends, friends come back to her saying they don't.
    Would one of you guys on the forum mind testing this out for me as I really don't know why this works for some and not others.
    The site is www.tuarard.ie
    Most of the complaints have been about Film Club/Becoming a Member/Download Application Form. No one seems to be able to download this.
    This is the code is use for the Application Form:
    on (release) {
    getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('film_club/film_club_application_form.p df','Tuar Ard Arts Centre','width=600,height=800 ,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=Yes,status=No,resizable=Yes,ful lscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);"); }
    This is the code is use for the the Main Programme:
    on (release) {
    getURL("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('current_programme/tuar-ard-programme.p df','Tuar Ard Arts Centre','width=600,height=800 ,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=Yes,status=No,resizable=Yes,ful lscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);"); }
    What is puzzling me is why the programme seems to work on all PCs but not the application form when both codes to me are identical.
    If you have any answers, i would be incredibly grateful.
    Thanks again,
    Peter

    Hi Max,
    Thanks for coming back to me. It's great to know that it finally seems to be working. I actually rewrote all the code for the links. I used to have code that allowed me to open a window without address bars etc but it was causing alot of problems on certain platforms and browsers so i replaced the code in flash with a simple get url.
    Thanks for getting back to me anyhow!

  • URL Links not working in ADE

    I have created URL links in a PDF ebook using acrobat.  The links  work just fine in Acrobat.  When I try to click on the link in ADE 2.0 some of the links aren't recognized, meaning they're not clickable.  Is there a certain setting that should be used in acrobat to ensure that links are clickable in ADE?.  It's important that they work in ADE because once DRM is added to the file, it will only be readable in ADE.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Clear Safari, close Safari and reset the iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    In order to close apps in iOS 7, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Might be worth checking on the Acrobat forum.
    Also probably worth seeing if they work on v1.7.2 (*2), on Sony Reader(*1), and on ereader devices and tablet ereader apps such as Bluefire.
    It could easily be a bug in ADE2.0, there are very many of them. 
    Lots of people including me still use 1.7.2 for that reason; but you may not have the choice of what to expect your readers to have.
    ~~~~
    (*1) you can use Sony Reader; free download from Sony intended to run with Sony eReaders but works quite happily without.  I prefer ADE1.7.2 to Sony Reader. https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
    ~~~~~~~~~
    (*2) There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
    The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
    Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
    It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
    Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

  • URL links not working in safari

    Hello, I am unable to open URL links in Safari. (iPad) all was well until a few days ago and I must have done something!  Everything else is working fine. Can anyone help me sort this out.  I'm sure there is something in settings but I can't find it. Thanks in advance. Pat

  • Swf url links not working on local files

    Tearing my hair out on this one. I have simple swf files with

    web & CD. I've updated flash player ... etc...
    thanks in advance for any clues!

    Hi Per,
    Wamp server's default site folder is www.  For best results, you should move your Local Site folder to www inside your wamp server.  That way, when you save changes locally they are automatically saved to your local testing server. 
    Click on screenshots below:
    Spaces in file and folder names are never a good idea because they get converted to %20 characters which can lead to path problems.

  • External URL links not working in .exe

    I have created a training programme using Adobe Captivate 7 which includes hyperlinks to websites and documents on a DVD Rom as a .exe
    I have managed to open the documents, however the URL hyperlinks are not working. I have had these working in previous versions of Adobe Captivate without having to change any 'Global Settings'. The issue being that I can't expect all of the learners who take the course to change their Global settings when they use it.
    How come this has changed in the new version?

    I know you said you didn't need to set Flash Security in previous versions, but I've been using Captivate since version 1 and it's always worked this way for me.  Only if you publish to HTM/SWF and launch from a web server can you use Open URL actions on external files without needing to configure Flash Security.

  • Multiple url links not working in flash catalyst

    Hi,
    I hope there is a simple solution that I have mistakenly overlooked - I have a flash catalyst file for my homepage with about 6 different url link buttons (full size images) each of which fade in one at a time, and take up the whole flash screen while visible. When one particular image (converted to button) is visible, I want people to click and go to the relevant link for that picture. However, no matter when I click on any image, the only link that works is the top button (even though it's hidden.)
    I am still new to Catalyst and your help is so greatly appreciated!

    I suspect it might be in how you might have made your button. Can you post your project? I can take a quick look.

  • Plain Text URL links not working in the Windows 8 Mail App for only one account.

    Hello,
    I just started using a Surface Pro, and randomly one of the accounts I have setup in the "Modern" Mail app stopped parsing the pain text URL path that was included in them.  Specifically links to forum discussions.  I have 4 other Win
    8 devices and they display the links fine.
    More confusing is this issue happens ONLY with my O365 mail account and only on one PC.   I have an Outlook.com account and it renders the pain text URL as a clickable link, but when I send the same email to my O365 account it just shows up as
    text, no link generated.  All in the same Windows 8 Mail App.
    I ran the Windows 8 App Troubleshooter, I've reinstalled the Mail app,  I've removed and re-added the mail account.  Nothing fixes this.  Anyone know why?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Same problem for us, the link is also not rendered, if the mail is sent to an on-premise Exchange server.
    Its only for plain-text messags, HTML-messages work fine.
    Why is this problem ignored? The app is useless with that limitation.

  • Report Conversion Tool in BI 4.1 SP2 not working from Client PCs

    Hi All,
    I am trying to convert some DeskI reports to WebI using report RCT 4.1 SP2. I'm converting the DekI reports in 4.1 direclty to WebI, so my source and destination is always going to be 4.1
    I am able to select the reports to be converted and when I click on the "Next" button on the conversion wizard, the conversion window opens and there is no progress for hours. I'm able to use RCT in the server, but only on the users PC's we are facing it.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Navaladi,
    Sort out whether the problem is only with RCT.
    Check if other clients are working good by connecting to the server and RCT is the only having the problem. As said, the poblem is with all the users, try to check out the Patch that recently installed. On any one of the users box, you can try reparing option for clients tools and check. Check with any simple sample report with no data.

  • Fresh Install HCM 9.1 but Links not working. Help please

    Dear All,
    I'm trying to make a switch from SAP to PeopleSoft. I tought it easier to install PSFT since the number of source to install is much less than SAP. However, I kept getting same error where the links not working no matter which environment I tried to install.
    I downloaded all software from eDelivery.
    HCM 9.1, PTOOLS 8.52, Oracle 11g 64 bit, Oracle Client 32 bit.
    First Try:
    Install on windows 7 64bit. Everything works fine until first login to the PSFT and all links not working.
    Suggestion from Hakan is to apply the patch and gave me a link to the old FTP site. I downloaded the 85209 patch but got password.
    Finally I managed to get a customer ID from a friend and downloaded Patch 85211 and applied. But got java error so I scrapped it.
    Anyway, Gasparotto said the environment is not certified and will not fix my problem with the patch.
    Second Try:
    Installed Virtual Box.
    Installed Windows 2008 R2 and applied the SP1.
    Installed everything all over again.
    Ensured the PTWEBSERVER password similar the username.
    Everything works fine but when login to PSFT, again..... links not working and see on the bottom left corner there are some javascript error where they cannot find certain peoplesoft objects..
    Just upgraded to IE 9 because I read somewhere IE 8 is not certified.
    Tried to login again, no error message and everything looks fine but... links not working.
    Logs also looks normal to me.
    Does anyone ever encountered similar issues before?
    Does this is a normal behaviour before tools patch 85211 being applied ?
    Thanks,
    aLuNa

    Does this is a normal behaviour before tools patch 85211 being applied ?Without patch, you have the error you mentioned. How many time I told that 8.52.03 min. is required, I did not go further, but there was some bugs before which make it not working.
    I understand that's rather frustrating for people who wants to jump to Peoplesoft. I don't know SAP, but here you go, Peoplesoft is not a simple toy.
    Unfortunately, if you have no access to My Oracle Support to get the Peoplesoft patches, you have no way but work on Peoplesoft OVM (free of use), and to use them on VirtualBox, the Jim's articles are worth to follow.
    Nicolas.
    PS: @Jim, thanks for the kind words.
    My last install guide is quite old now (PT8.50/Linux), even though it did not change very much within the last tools 8.52. But seeing the number of time such questions have asked over here (PT8.52 on Windows), I'm thinking to write one more, that time on Windows.
