Vm Servers failing to start - Urgent HELP

Hi
I have suddenly found I cannot start any of my vm`s on our Oracle 3.0.3 vm server setup. If I stop any running vm`s I then get the following error on trying to start them.
Its the weekend and im trying to do some work while the office is emtpy and am now totally stuck and in trouble.
Also I do have a CSI (ordered 3 days ago) but aparently is not active (just called help line) and they cannot find any record of it. Something about takes 36 hours and I need to receive a welcome letter? As its the weekend (sun) I will have to wait until next week.
We currently have two vm hosts running for last few months without any problems. I did add on Friday a third host server but cannot really see how this could have affected it.
Error on starting vm`s follows
Any help/response would be nice

End of Job
----------

Looks like I have got around this problem.
I rebooted the 3rd (new) host server and was able to live migrate servers over to it. It would also allow me to start stopped servers on it as well.
Just had to live migrate all the servers from the other two host servers and reboot the host machines.
Once done everything seems to work and I can stop/start servers on any of the host servers.

  • Updating to MAXDB 7.5.00.29- user logon failed error! Urgent Help

    Hi
    I am trying to update MaxDB 7.5.00 to MaxDB 7.5.00.29
    on WAS 6.40. When I run the update via SDBUPD, I get the error "cannot establish database instance". i have looked in the log files(MaxDBUpdate_install-16.07.2005-16.13.log)
    and the error is
    <b>user_logon failed
    ERR
    -24950,ERR_USRFAIL: user authorization failed</b>
    I am following "MaxDB update SAP note 735598" and under Windows section it states I should call the SDBUPD from the cmd prompt as follows:
    SDBUPD -d <database_name> -u <dbm_userid>,<password>
    so i run
    <b>SDBUPD -d J2E -u Administrator,portal</b>
    I assume <dbm_userid> is the default userid which is Admisitrator when installing WAS and MAXDB. I ahve not changed the default during the installation.
    I have tried <b>SAPJ2EDB</b> as dmb_userid as well as <b>J2EE_Admin</b>, they still give the same error.
    Any help on this?
    Need urgent help
    Much appreciated

    Hi
    Thank you for your reply!!
    I used control,control as user,password. This worked 100%, but then it reached to a point where it gave this error, i get this from the log file:
    <b>STDERR: test pgm/sqltcp.dll failed: cannot extract pgm/sqltcp.dll: sharing violation during open of existing file</b>
    What causes this error, and how can i get pass this ?
    I assume some instance is started, but before I ran the SDBUPD, I stopped the J2E under sap system in SAPMMC.
    Below is the output it gave when i ran SDBUPD from cmd prompt, I have bolded where the error starts:

    2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80.

  • ITunes is failing to start, Please Help!

    Ok, I am having trouble opening up iTunes. First, when I clicked on the icon to start iTunes, a window came up saying, "The procedure entry point OpenServiceW could not be located in the dynamic link library MPlugin.dll." I didnt know how to fix this, so I posted a message on the 'Using iTunes for Windows' on the Discussion board. The reply that I recieved was "Delete MPlugin.dll from C:/Program Files/iTunes/Plugins/" I did that, and now, when I try to start iTunes, it says, "This application has failed to start because MPlugn.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." Im not sure if it is telling me to re-install iTunes, or if i should repair iTunes.... I have no clue. Please help!

    I'll post the same thing I posted in another thread; it might help you. Reinstall itunes again according to my post. Some of the information is irrelevant to your problem, but hey, i'm kinda feeling lazy and don't want to edit it. You'll get the idea. Here it is.....
    "this is just a suggestion. If you reinstall itunes again, make sure you follow the directions in the support section of this site for uninstalling itunes and quicktime. Another thing they don't say in that article that I did when i had to uninstall itunes was to do a search. You know, pressing the start button and then "Search". Make sure when you do, click the search "All files and folders". Then set it to look in "Local Hard Drives (C:)" or "My Computer"; i'm not sure which search will pop up your itunes files. Try them both. And then type in the "all or part of the file name" box, itunes. After the search is done you should have a bunch of different itunes components in the results. Btw do the same for quicktime as a search. Make sure to DELETE every itunes and quicktime file there. If some of your music files happened to come up in the search, use commone sense. Get rid of every component so itunes and quicktime is completely erased from the system. Make sure that you do this after you've already restarted your computer once (according, to the uninstallation article). Then just empty your recycle bin, reboot your computer, and finally reinstall itunes. Good luck and ask me anything if you have some questions!!"
    Let me know if it works or not. Again, good luck!

    Whenever I go to open Illustrator CS5 Extended, I get this message: http://i52.tinypic.com/16m6ow6.png I went to these forums before and I looked at a similar issue, and they said to get the Cleaner Tool or something so I did, but it said I need to unistall the product. I went to go uninstall the product but this message came up: http://i51.tinypic.com/2emcsjc.png I've reinstalled the product twice now and it begins to work the first time I open it, but then starts this whole error message over again. If there's even a number I can call to help me with this, that's be great. I'm a graphic designer and I urgently need my Illustrator to get my job done. Thank you in advance.

  • Xorg failed to start :: Please help

    Hi there, I have been trying to start X for more than 3 days and I can't seem to find a solution to this. Sorry for my english and please can someone give me some tips on this. Here's my setup:
    [root@ViruSzZ ~]# lspci | grep -i vga
    00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
    01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Manhattan [Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series]
    I installed Intel's and Ati's video drivers. I also tried using the ati's git version but none of them worked. Here's the /var/log/Xorg.0.log without using xorg.conf [ http://pastebin.com/wb4pqz69 ] and here's the ones using xorg.conf [ http://pastebin.com/wPULBM0z ] and the logfile [ http://pastebin.com/U4MN2ByM ].
    I setup the above xorg.conf because when I try to generate it I get the following:
    root@ViruSzZ ~]# Xorg -configure

    Thanks and Respect
    P.S."Please tell me if something else is necessary to provide"

    Finally, I booted into DE (gnome in this moment). I needed to add the following inside my rc.local
    modprobe radeon
    echo "OFF" > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
    After that gnome started successfully but the screen remained black (no brightness at all). I fixed the brightness with the following command:
    echo 5 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
    can someone explain why is this strange behavior ? I can manage to get all this steps automated and switch between the cards via vga_switcheroo, the only pain I have was the X server.
    I am really really appreciated to this community. If there are some other tips on this please let me know.

  • Any application using webkit won't start (urgent help needed)

    Hi,
    Any application that needs webkit won't start anymore. The problem is (appears to be) in one specific folder: /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework
    All reports point to that folder, i restored it from a time machine backup but the apps still wont start. Is there a way to reinstall webkit?
    Applications include:
    - Safari, Mail, App Store, Adium, Dashboard, Messages, Notes, Reminders, Spotlight in the menubar, iTunes....... pretty much every application i need to make my Mac usable.
    All error logs show this:
    pplication Specific Information:
    dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries
    Dyld Error Message:
      Symbol not found: __ZN3JSC14JSGlobalObject16putDirectVirtualEPNS_8JSObjectEPNS_9ExecStateERKNS_10 IdentifierENS_7JSValueEj
      Referenced from: /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/WebCore.frame work/Versions/A/WebCore
      Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaScriptCore.framework/Versions/A/JavaScriptCore
    in /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/WebCore.frame work/Versions/A/WebCore
    Any suggestions on how to fix the webkit problem?
    Thanks,
    Jay

    First, I'd check in Safe Mode and see if the problem still occurs. If it does it could be a startup item or plug-in that's interfering. If not, try re-installing Safari.
    Not sure it will touch WebKit though, you you may need to boot to your Recovery Volume and re-install the OS. Not too bad because it's an install in place and shouldn't touch any data, files or settings.

  • Messaging 3.x fails to start with "Unable to initialize" error

    Messaging Server fails to start from the Admin Server or by using the "start" command.
    <P>
    # /etc/NscpMail start
    Startup Problem:
    Unable to initialize the environment from (/etc/netscape.mail.conf)
    Netscape Messaging Server Exiting!
    <P>
    The Messaging Server log file will not show any entries.
    <P>
    The problem is most likely due to a missing dbswtich.conf
    file or a zero byte file.
    <P>
    The default dbswitch.conf
    file contains a single line:
    <P>
    directory default ldapdb:///usr/netscape/suitespot/userdb/ldap/config/lcache.conf/
    <P>
    Restore this file from a backup if possible.
    <P>
    Unlike Admin Server, Messaging Server will require the correct file to be
    restored because it immediately looks for its postmaster entries in the LDAP
    directory. If you cannot restore the file:
    <OL>
    <LI>Place a temporary entry into the
    file.
    <LI>Start the admin server.
    <LI>Enter the correct values into Global Settings,
    Configure Directory Service.
    <LI>Attempt to start the Messaging Server again.
    </OL>
    <P>
    Tracing utilities (e.g. truss in Solaris) can
    help analyze problems where servers fail to start and return little or no
    useful errors.
    <P>
    truss -f -o <trussfile> /etc/NscpMail start
    <P>
    grep dbswitch.conf <trussfile>.
    <P>
    This would usually show admin returning a ENOENT error or reading zero bytes of
    data.

    I assume when you say "mentioned solutions", those include:
    - Generating xorg.conf with aticonfig --initial
    - Blacklisting the radeon module
    - Generating the fresh fglrx modules with catalyst_build_module all
    Also, how've you set it up? AUR, graysky's repository or directly from AMD's website?

  • Session failed to start - after updating to IOS 7

    I've updated to my iphone 4 to IOS 7 and now it won't sync with itunes.  Its says "session failed to start".  Help!

    On the advice I got from others, here's what I finally did:
    1.  I connected my iPhone to my PC and backed it up to iTunes.  Even though the phone doesn't sync, it will still back up and it did. 
    2.  I then went in to settings on my iPhone under "Reset" and did the "Erase All Content and Settings", while still leaving my iPhone connected to my computer.
    3.  Once the phone booted back up, iTunes asked me if I wanted to restore my phone from back up.  I chose restore and it restored my phone back and it is now working 100%.  I'll add that it froze up during the restore process and I simply rebooted my PC and the ran sync and it finally worked.  Took forever for my apps to all load back (couple of hours), but its fixed and working great.
    I cannot tell you how upset I am with Apple.  Many of us have this same issue and Apple has done nothing to help us or fix it.  I've wasted 12 hours of my life on something that should have been simple and seamless.  Isn't that the point of Apple and iPhones? 

  • Itunes would not open "MSVCR.dll" is missing. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall itunes and got "apple mobilE devicE failed to start" message

    itunes woUld not open. I got the message "MSVCR.dll is missing". I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, but got the message "apple mobile devicE failed to start". any help is appreciated.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
