WARNING: DATA LOSS - EMET 4 reporter deletes files

NOTE: This EMET issue was moved here from this original post: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/gallery-wlsettings/photo-gallery-crash-emet-reporter-deletes-file/e5a510c8-e0fb-4d33-8179-8ee7a18d11e5?rtAction=1377879230389
Discovered a bug in EMET 4.0 running on Windows 8 (desktop).
Steps to reproduce:
open a .jpg graphic... opens in Photo Gallery.
hit the "Edit, Organize, or Share" button, top left menu bar.
Program crashes and opens a "Photo Gallery has stopped working"/Close program prompt.
EMET opens up a "Do you want to send more information about this issue?" prompt.
When you click Yes/Send with the EMET prompt it DELETES YOUR FILE - no recycle bin, no warning.
It appears to be a problem with EMET. I closed the Photo Gallery prompt and the program closed, file deletion did not occur until the EMET prompt was sent/closed.
UPDATE: Discovered a new unwanted behavior... it will delete the file when you hit the DONT report button as well. I guess the only way is to close the prompt window and not to choose the REPORT or DON'T REPORT buttons.

NOTE: The below entry describes a problem with the default EMET 4 configuration for Windows Photo Gallery which led to the discovery of this bug. It is taken from (duplicated from) this post... http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/gallery-wlsettings/photo-gallery-crash-emet-reporter-deletes-file/e5a510c8-e0fb-4d33-8179-8ee7a18d11e5
---------------------------->>
I did not reinstall Photo Gallery here (not needed)... I think the problem is with EMET.
With the previous entry, where I was asked to disable EMET and test Photo Gallery, I may not have disabled it fully via the task manager... so I got the expected crash. I just tested with EMET running but with all the mitigation checkboxes unchecked for
WLXPhotoGallery.exe, and I was able to use the "Edit, Organize, or Share" button in Photo Gallery properly with no crash.
I will have to experiment with which EMET mitigation check is causing the crash when using the "Edit, Organize, or Share" button. The default EMET installation list had all mitigation checkboxes checked for this program. If someone happens
to know the proper checkbox configuration for WLXPhotoGallery.exe please post.

Data loss in the secure file transfer using java

Hi,
My java Appllication uses the sftp(secure file transfer protocol) for file transferring. when the load is high like 150 GB , data loss occuring for some files especially last chunk of data is missing.
Core file transfer code
while (true)
int read = bis.read(buffer); //Reading bytes into the byte array (buffer) from network stream (bis).
if (read==-1) {
break; //Break the loop, if there are no more bytes available in the InputStream.
bos.write(buffer,0,read); //Writing the same number of bytes what we read into buffer byte array into OutputStream
complete.update(buffer,0,read); //Giving the same number of bytes what we read above to the checksum calculation.
bytesSoFar += read; //Incrementing the bytes that we have read from the source.
//if the bytes transferred are equal to the source file size
If (bytesSoFar == fileInfo.getFileSize().intValue())
// Calculate the file checksum.
// Update DbAuditLog with checksum and no. of bytes read
else
// Update DbAuditLog with no. of bytes read
bos.flush();
Please help , why the data loss is happening when the big size files transfer
Note:
1.150 gb not a single file multiple files.
2.SFTP no java specific API, So connection is happening through java .io.sockect connection

so, if you are not getting any exceptions, yet the data is incorrect, it sounds like you are having actual network issues. i'd start looking at things like the actual network cards in the computer as well other equipment involved in the transfer. since you are not getting exceptions, the network stack obviously thinks nothing was lost over the wire, so either the actual hardware has issues, or the network stack, or the issue is on the sending end. the last possibility is that the client is somehow munging the data it is sending. do you control the client code? if so, i'd start checking the client side code for bugs (and/or post it here).
also, i'm assuming that all of the variables included in your original code are thread local (you aren't sharing any of those buffers/streams/etc between multiple threads).

Data loss in original documents

Hi, we are running R/3 46C with DMS.
Typical functionality is as follows:
Using the online vault (ftp server), we checkin and out the originals from the DMS. We use MS Word/Excel as workstation applications to create/update the originals. e.g. the original is checked-out and opens as a MS Word document within the SAPGUI (Inplace DM configuration). A temporary copy is created on local workstation. Employee then updates the original and does a 'save and exit'. This checks the original back into the vault, deletes the local copy from workstation and exits the transaction.
The issue is as follows:
Person A opens the original, updates it and saves and exits. Person B (or the same person A) opens the same original document within couple of seconds or so after person A has saved and exited. In this case, person B doesnot see the updated content. So person B has no clue that the content was updated. If person B updates the content and saves it,
the content updated by person A is lost. There seems to be a performance issue resulting in potential data loss. The trace files for sapftp indicate good performance without any timeouts etc. between the workstation and the online vault (ftp server).
Not able to nail the cause. Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks
Nirmal

Hi Iring,
I appreciate your suggestion. I think I understand it, however, in my case, the issue is after the original is checked into the vault. Once a user has updated the original and checked it into the vault (using 'save and exit' button), the transaction ends successfully, with a message "Document Info record <doc typ> <doc number> changed". This gives an impression that the original has been checked-in and the contents have been saved. If I open the same original within couple of seconds of the first save, the original does show as checked-in. However, intermittently, I would not see the content that was changed as part of the first save.
The ftp log shows no errors and indicates good performance.
Regards
Nirmal

!!! Statements of Logic Deleting Files and messing with System are True !!!

This morning I answered some guys post about Logic deleting everything in the same level as the project folder under certain circumstances. I Tried trouble shooting for him but could not recreate it.
Then this happened to me today:
When working in Logic 8 in Leopard all of a sudden it stopped communicating with my Unitor8 via USB. I restarted but the Unitor 8 Which I reset twice would NOT communicate with L8 anymore. It would remain in patch mode (red light lit though CPU is running)
I've had this erratic behavior many times since the past years on many computers so it wasn't really new. All one needs to do is reinstall the Unitor Family driver.
So I decided to do so:
I inserted my Logic Studio DVD and opened the installer and checked ONLY the Unitor family Drivers. After completed install I restarted the Mac. Everything went fine. So I booted L8. While booting I saw my hardrives on the right side of the desktop flash once. I thought that to be strange and took closer look.
Now my boot drive was missing from all the drives on the desktop and in the sidebar window...
I tried to Apple+Click on a Application in the dock. The finder opened the applications folder and showed me the app I had clicked on. But I could not navigate to the root of my System Drive even via the "path" sysmbol in the toolbar. So I hit shiftappleg and entered /Volumes/MySystemVolume - it showed my volume "Grayed Out" in the finder window...
I tried repairing the disk and permissions but nothing was wrong with my boot drive apparently besides the fact that the finder (and all other applications when wanting to open or save) could not "see" my system drive... I could launch all the apps normally that were residing on the SystemDrive in the AppFolder... So this kept getting weirder...
So I opened my favorite application Tinkertool System and went to the Tab Files and chose the underlying tab "Attributes" which shows me Macintosh HFS and Finder Attributes... I pulled my SystemDrive onto the Drop Area and discovered something VERY amazing: The Display in Finder option had mysteriously been altered to "INVISIBLE"
I changed it to Visible and there it was - My System Drive... Showing up in the finder...
I made a restart to make sure everything was OK....
After the restart the following settings had VANISHED:
1) Pixadex = ALL ICONS (I had 230 MB) of sorted icons stored in my Application Support Folder
2) All my Safari Book marks were gone - They were still in ~/Library/Safari - but the Bookmarks.plist was UNREADABLE even with a text editor and XML editor
3) Numerous other applications had LOST their authorization preferences so I had to re-authorize many of my Audio Unit plug-ins...
4) My Dock had been reset
5) My Monitor arrangement had been reset...
6) My date and time had been reset
7) My energy settings had been reset.... (I had NOT zapped the P-RAM)
Since installing Leopard 2 weeks ago - I have CAREFULLY monitored ANY activity after INSTALLING anything in order to be able to troubleshoot - and this problem definitely occurred right after installing the USB Family Drivers and launching L8....
There was really NO HARM done other than the sweating that I did troubleshooting but if L8 is capable of doing what happened to this other guy loosing his whole folder and now doing this to me - where are the limits? When is someone going to get REAL hurt.
Please Apple - I am sending you this post as a BUG report as well - could you PLEASE look into this as there has to be some kind of VERY dangerous MALFUNCTION within Logic or its Installers.

Wow, I was just joking with the medication thing. I didn't actually think it was seriously a mental health issue. Sorry.
In any case, though, if he has full access to the Mac, mental health issues or no, there's not a whole lot to do about it. If it is possible to take away administrative privileges without causing a huge fuss, then you can limit his access to certain things. However, you can't mess with privileges on a Time Machine backup (doing so breaks it), and that means he's going to have access to at least parts of the backup. Which means he can trash at least some of the backup data, and if he deletes files from the TM backup using the Finder, he'll have essentially trashed the whole backup. He might as well have the ability to delete all the files on the machine if he has the power to delete backups.
Honestly, in this situation, he should either only be allowed to use an account with Parental Controls on, which may not be an option (I don't know how offended he would be at such a suggestion), or he should be using a different computer entirely and have no access at all to his wife's computer. Alternately, have his wife keep a backup that is hidden - ie, connect the backup drive periodically and then remove it and hide it so he can't mess with it. That will at least secure the backup.

How to get Deleted File details from Content DataBase?

Hi,
I have uploaded one pdf document in to SharePoint Document Library. After some days i have removed it.
File has removed from Site.
Does record available in Content Data Base for the deleted file? Which table should i refer?
Thanks & Regards
Poomani Sankaran

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to get the deleted file record in sql database table.
If you have backed up the Content Data Base, then you can find the deleted file information in AllDocs andAllDocStreams table. You need to use "inner join" to get the whole information.

[DATA LOSS] I closed the Tab Groups and all my tabs dissapeared. How can I recover the tabs in Firefox 26? Would you please just delete this feature?

Thank-you in advance for reading all of this.
A slip of the mouse in trying to return to the left-most tab caused the tab groups feature to take over the window. I completely failed to comprehend what I was looking at and closed the thing by clicking the x because I damn sure didn't want what I was looking at. Undo close group? Of course not, I didn't want a group in the first place. Hey! My tabs are completely gone now! So in just a few steps all of which seemed innocent, I have lost all but ten of the tabs that were open, and those were only the most recent ten (and actually older tabs would have been more valueable than newer so insult on top of injury).
I don't think increasing the number of undoable tab closures is the answer. I think getting rid of the tab groups feature all together is the best way to go. I seem to have lost all the tabs I had open, irretrievably, and some of them had been open for WEEKS so they can't be reopened from history.
The tab groups feature is a data loss bug. Please remove it from the UX completely. If you have to figure out a way to grandfather people who actually have a tab group, fine but don't further vex me with it, please.
The reason this catastrophe has occurred is that your feature, was so discoverable that I activated it by mistake, and the UI after that had to be learned on the spot, yet was too complicated to learn. You really should withdraw it until you can figure out how to keep the UI for it from causing data loss such as I have experienced this morning.
Also, there may be other questions on this feature which are from a certain point of view the same as this one. It's hard for me to tell for sure. None of them had a true resolution so that's why I posted this one, also I'm seeking a specific fix, removal of the offending feature.
Why remove the feature? Because if I allow in my discussion the possibility of retaining it, it will stick around in its present and dangerous form until your team is done bikeshedding the new form it should take. Instead I want you to delete the feature and then require its champion to convince you that a new incarnation won't cause data loss before you allow it back in.
Fellow users, if you know of a way to recover all 50 lost tabs from an "undo close tab group incident", I would be grateful for that advice, but I would still believe the feature should be deleted. Some of the tabs have been retained for months so digging them out of the history is not practical.

I am not 100% certain but I am fairly sure development of this tab feature has ceased and it is likely to be deprecated. I am even less sure what the replacement will be.
Thus forum is not the place for discussing development issues or feature requests. (Developers do not use this site)
*You could comment using feedback <br /> https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
*Or try to find a developers forum or mailing list <br /> http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/#general-development
I have not tried this and am not even using Windows at present but the tabs groups are stored as entries in the sessionstore.js files. Firefox has such a file plus sometimes numbered copies and a backup copy. Firefox will have re-writen these files but I suppose there is a posibility the Windows OS may have kept copies.
* see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sessionstore.js Note the files are kept within the Firefox Profile
** Firefox Button -> Help -> Troubleshooting [open profile] (or some thing similar) is one method of locating the profile.
Find and backup any current sessionstore.js file. Consider also bookmark or otherwise recording anything you have open. Now find any previous versions and try putting them in Firefox's profile before restarting it.

EMET reports it isnt started with a pop up warning

EMET reports, Agent status, not running!!
I clicked the wizArd and selected keep settings and finish. But
the program wont start? Whats wrong, and how do I start it?

We are using the following install string as suggested in the documentation for an SCCM deployment:
msiexec /i "%~dp0EMET Setup.msi" /qn ALLUSERS=1
and found that we needed to add the following registry key for the agent to start properly:

How to get data from an existing Excel file using report generation toolkit

I'm trying to use the Excel Get Data vi from the report generation toolkit, but i can't figure out how to turn a browsable path into the right type for the VI. I've tried using the New Report.vi, but that doesn't work unless you use a template. It won't open an existing excel file and make it an open report to pull data from.
Essentially, i have a bunch of excel files that have data in them and i want to use a VI to analyze the data. So, i'm trying to pull in all the data directly from the excel file so i don't have to reproscess them all into text so i can use the more standard spreadsheet VIs. But to even convert the excel file programtically in labview won't i still need to be able to open the excel file and get the data?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I C.
Got it,
the reason why I can view it using my Excel file because its in .CSV.
I open Microsoft Excel to open .CSV file.
But you can also open .csv file with notepad.
So, you cannot open .xls with Read Spreadsheet File

Problem while exporting the data from a report to an excel file.

Hi SAP guru's,
I have a problem while exporting the data from a report to an excel file.
The problem is that after exporting, the excel file seems to have some irrelevant characters....I am checking this using SOST transaction..
Required text (Russian):
Операции по счету
№ документа     Тип документа     № учетной записи     Дата документа     Валюта     Сумма, вкл. НДС     Срок оплаты     Описание документа
Current Text :
   ? 5 @ 0 F 8 8 ? > A G 5 B C
!   4 > : C       "" 8 ? 4 > : C      !   C G 5 B = > 9 7 0 ? 8 A 8        0 B 0 4 > : C         0 ; N B 0      ! C <       ! @ > : > ? ; 0 B K        ? 8 A 0 = 8 5 4 > : C
Can you help me making configuration settings if any?
Regards,
Avinash Raju

Hi Avinash
To download such characteres you need to adjust code page to be used during export. You can review SAP note 73606 to identify which code page is required for this language

Accidentally deleted iTunes, is there anyway I can download it again and have it just back up my iPod instead of clearing it of all data? All of iTunes files are still on my computer, but the actual program got deleted.

I was trying to clear space on my C drive and decided to delete programs that I didn't use or that I didn't recognize. (Bad idea, I know that now.) Anyways, accidentally deleted a program that iTunes needed to run and the computer said it would undo the uninstall and restart to fix the problem but when it restarted iTunes was gone. So my question is, after I download iTunes again, is there a way I can just backup my iPod to it's last sync (which was coincidentally right before I accidentally deleted iTunes) instead it being cleared of all its data? All of iTunes' files are still on my computer except the actual program itself.

Hi, InsaneCharlie.
Thanks for the question. I see you have uninstalled iTunes and want this program back. Start with completely uninstalling iTunes if present and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below. Once this is done, download and install iTunes. If none of your data was modified in the iTunes media folder, then your data should be present upon installation.

Hi why are my photos after downloading twice ,once in photo library and once in a file with the date why cant i delete a file its an iphone 4s please help

why are my photos after downloadon twice one as photo library the other as a file with date how can i delete one file same pics

Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go.

"Media Cache Files" is a huge folder - is it necessary data or temporary data that I could delete?

My folder "Media Cache Files" (found in: profiles > appdata > roaming > adobe > common > media cache files) is currently over 200 GB big and I was wondering whether all of this data is necessary for my projects (or for anything else?) or whether it is temporary data that I can delete without causing any problems for my saved projects or the programme itself? Does anybody know? Thanks in advance!!!

Mylenium, Thanks for your immediate reply! This helps me a lot! ... and my laptop will be oh so happy to have less GB.

Unable to Connect to the Data Source with Report Builder when using a closed Excel file

I am using Report Builder 3.0 and to get started I am using an Excel spreadsheet as my data source. I set this up just fine. I can connect successfully if the file is open Excel. But if I close the file, I get the error "Unable to
Connect to the data source".
This is my connection string:
Dsn=Licenses;dbq=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS\licenses.xlsx;defaultdir=C:\USERS\AMEADE\DOCUMENTS;driverid=790;fil=excel 8.0;maxbuffersize=2048;pagetimeout=5
Works fine if the file is open but stops working when the file is closed. Any idea what I can do?

Hi Alice,
Based on my understanding, when you keep the Excel file open, you can connect to the data source correctly. But when you close the Excel file, the error “Unable to Connect to the data source” is thrown out.
In your scenario, I would like to know if only this Excel comes across this issue. Have you experienced the same issue when you use other Excel files as a data source? As we tested in our environment, we can connect to the data source whether the Excel file
is open. You can refer to this
article to create a data source again then check if you can connect to the data source when the Excel file is closed.
If issue persists, I would suggest you use the
Process Monitor to capture the processes during the connection to the data source. Then check the result of each process to find the exact reason.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
