Weird encoding issue during ssh session

I'll start by saying that encoding during ssh is somewhat of a mystery to me, and I've always been impressed that 99% of the time it seems to "just work". Anyway, today I ran into one of the 1% cases. I was ssh-ing into my Arch machine from my OS X laptop, and everything was going great. I then realized I need to install something on my Arch machine (from the AUR) and called yaourt to do it. Everything went well with the interactive stuff (pressing Y or enter would continue, pressing n would choose the "no" menu, etc.) until the very last question when it asks if you are really sure you want to install the package. At this point I found it impossible to send a newline to what I assume is pacman. Pressing enter printed ^M, pressing backspace printed ^H, etc. Why would the terminal behave like this, but only during the pacman question and at no other point of interacting with the shell? What is likely wrong with my ssh encoding settings (either on my mac or on my Arch machine) to generate this behavior? Thanks!

Calling just pacman works. I can press enter when prompted and install the package.

Issues during restricted session

I have placed my database in restricted mode.
I am trying to run a few DML's with one user which has dba role assigned.
When i executed that procedure through shell scripts I got the following error.
ERROR:
ORA-12526: TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are in restricted mode
But Manually i connected to server & connected to that oracle user, i was able to execute those statements perfectly.
How to enable the user to do the same dml's through procedures?
I granted restricted session privilege to that user.

Also, there's a workaround, add "(UR=A)" to the CONNECT_DATA portion of your connect string definition. This is documented in MetaLink Doc ID 444120.1.
For Example:
DFM2 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.10.20.3)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(UR = A)
(SERVICE_NAME = DFM.uservices.umn.edu)

Terminal's scrollback during an ssh session

Hi,
Using Terminal I am connected to a windows machine from my mac via ssh.
During this session Terminal's scrollback feature doesn't work. It always shows an output of 24/25 lines.
How can I scrollback to see more output?
Thanks.

Yes, I gathered that much. What program are you running in that terminal session? Is it some kind of DOS program that uses direct term I/O?

Weird Playback Issue...

I have this weird playback issue with iTunes for Windows. I am using Vista and I think the cause of the problem is that I am using MacDrive to access my OS X partition. But anyways, on with the problem. So the problem is that when I play a song, the song will play for like 5 seconds and then it will just go the next song. This song will do the same thing, and so-on and so-forth. Then, during this time, my Mac formatted hard drive is unavailable while iTunes is running. In "My Computer" the drive is there, but when I try to open it, Explorer freezes. Then, when I exit iTunes, it doesn't really exit. It still shows up in the task manager and when I try to end the process, it just plain doesn't end. I have to restart my computer to gain full use of it again. After the restart I can access my Mac disks, but once I start iTunes and try to play a song, I get the same thing again. And in case thats not weird enough, I can play the MP3's in WMP fine, and they will also play in iTunes fine if I actually open them, rather than just select them from my library. If I go to file open and select a song on my Mac drive, it will play fine, but then once I try to play a song from my library, I get caught in that vicious cycle. Anyone else had this problem or anything? Thanks. Also, is there an alternative program to Mac Drive that will allow me to read HFS partitions?

Post more about your situation... what format is the video, and where are you storing the video files? i.e., on a disk other than your startup disk? The adobe install is likely not the problem... I run adobe software along side FCS on about 75 workstations, and don't see issues like you describe.
Wavy? not accurate? what are you talking about?

Screen Sharing and SSH sessions freeze occasionally on multiple mac minis

I have 28 Mac Minis at work. With such a large number of minis, I obviously can't have a monitor attached to each of them so I've got them plugged into a network switch and access them via Screen Sharing (both via regular Screen Sharing and ARD) and SSH sessions.
A few of them seem to suffer from intermittent problems however. I'll be using Screen Sharing when the session freezes. It may unfreeze eventually, but I can also usually just quit out and re-connect and it will be unfrozen. The same thing happens when I'm connected via SSH, it will freeze and I won't be able to type in any more commands.
I need help troubleshooting (or if anyone knows what could be causing this, that'd be cool too).
I've tried connecting from both a Mac Pro on the wired network and a MacBook Pro on the wireless network. The freezing seems to only happen on certain Mac Minis as well.
I've tried switching network cables from a Mac Mini that doesn't suffer from this problem with one that does and nothing changed.
I also thought it might be a bandwidth issue at first, despite being a gigabit switch connected via cat6 to the rest of our gigabit network, but even when no significant bandwidth is being used, the freezing still occurs.
One more thing I want to test is the connection between the switch all these Mac Minis is plugged into and one of the other switches that all our other network traffic goes through. I didn't set it up myself so I fear that it might be an old, damaged cable or something. Failing that, I have no idea what the problem could be, which is why I'm posting here.
So, does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Or any other ideas for troubleshooting the problem? Thanks.
(They're all running 10.6.8, and range from Mid-2007 to 2009 models).

It would be in the system log. However, the next step would be to safe-boot in order to eliminate third-party system modifications. That goes for both client and server. If you can reproduce the problem in safe mode, then you probably have a network issue. Take everything offline except one client and one server, and test.

Premire Pro CC 2014 and Media Encoder Crash During Launch

Premire Pro and Media Encoder crash during startup and are unusable. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate and already tried reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud from scratch and it's still happening. I also tried following Adobes KB articles directions to rename the Adobe folder in my documents and appdata to no avail. When I try to launch either application, I get a generic windows crash message "Adobe Premire Pro CC 2014.0 has stopped working" and when I click problem details, it lists this:

I am having a similar problem.
Premiere Pro CC 2014 suddenly decided to crash every time I export to either Adobe Media Encoder or within Premiere itself.
The encode will usually go for 5-10 minutes before the programs either spits out a "serious error has occurred" window, or it just sits there frozen until I force quit.
I did find a work-around for the moment. If I open AME and FILE > OPEN, select my project and then the sequence I want, AND put it in Software render mode, it will work.
My timeline is 2K, 58 minutes in 23.976
Only effects applied are Lumetri LUTs - no third party.
I've exported as recently as a week ago without issue.
Running OSX 9.5 on an X99 board
3.75 GHz 8-core
64GB 2400 MHz RAM
EVGA Titan Black 6GB
Because I can get my renders out, I am not too concerned. Either there is something wonky with my timeline that screws with any graphics enabled rendering, or there is a bug that is have the same effect. I will try rendering on another of my edit bays that utilizes a GTX 580 that I KNOW works. The Titan is pretty new to my workflow.
Thanks Adobe, for checking this out.

Edits will not be saved. Any Edits made to the enterprise global template items are only available during this session.

Hi,
I am getting a pop-up message(Edits will not be saved. Any Edits made to the enterprise global template items are only available during this session.Make edits in checked-out enterprise global template to make them
available for all users of this project server) when trying to insert a new column in the Gannt Chart View.
Due to this what all are the columns that inserted in the project plan, will be lost when open the project in the next time.
I have opened the Enterprise Global Template and cross checked for Gaant Chart view it is showing the table as "Entry" only.
The requirement is what all columns are required for the project plan, manager will insert in the project first time. Next time on-wards it needs to be display the columns when opened the project from server by default.
We are unable to reproduce this issue in our Dev Envt.
Could anyone of you please help me.
Thanks in Advance!
Regards,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
I suggest to remove Gantt Chart view and Entry table from Eglobal. These are default views from client and it is highly recommended to not use them in Enterprise Global.
Whatever a user ist doing on a view or table which is included in Enterprise Global will be reset on next open - therefore you receive this message.
If you need some server wide defined views and tables, create them. But remove Gantt Chart and Entry.
Does that help?

Problem could come from internal and external data format.
Depending on your SRM release, check OSS notes for report you used to generate approval mail ( RSWUWFMLEC, RBBP_NOTIFICATION_APP, etc.).

Ask to your Outlook team to have a look at Outlook settings.
You can also check OSS note 1319517 - Unicode Collection Note.

Weird pacman issue upgrading

Ok so I ran out of disk space a while back and didnt even noticed. Tried to update my system and no luck, fixed the disk space issue and now im getting some weird pacman errors during syncing...
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/local/akonadi-1.1.1-1/depends: No such file or directory
similar errors happen for libical. ANyone any advice? Corrupt pacman DB? Need some direction to go with this one
update: OK so I did some playing and got past the pacman errors during syncing, but now when i update it wants to update the kdebase-workspace and gets errors like:
kdebase-workspace: /usr/share/wallpapers/default_blue.jpg.desktop exists in filesystem
Is this a package issue?
Last edited by ybotspawn (2009-02-06 01:20:01)

Yes and I fixed my disk space, so is pacman still broken then?
nevermind i played and figured that part out duh. sorry for the dumb questions

Capture ssh sessions in the background

Hi together,
i would like to capture all ssh-session (hidden in the background) on a solaris 10 server.
I hade some tries with /usr/bin/script -a <somewhere> in the .bash_profile but this is not what i need. e.g. "exit" exits the script and not the session.
do you have some clever idea how to solve the issue?
i can�t find any helpful tool.
chears, claudius

No, i have a System where some users get the possibility to access the server by ssh. To have a control, what the user did - and do have a verification when he did something wrong - i would like to have a possibility to see what he did within the session (e.g. editing a configfile) I had some tries with "script" and other little OS-tools but, i was�nt able to find a perfect sollution.
Perfect meens - it�works and it is not vissible for the user.

SSH sessions over Putty die unexpectedly & commandline entry is slow

I have a Sun Ultra-60 running Solaris 9 at patch level 118558-05. Users of this server report that their ssh sessions over Putty to this server die unexpectedly anywhere from one to two times per week. The users are usually in a vim session at the time editing php files for the website hosted on the system. Another problem reported is that the user's command line input slows dramatically and they must wait for the server to complete the line they were typing prior to proceeding.
I cannot find the source of this problem. To date, the following is what I have tried in my troubleshooting efforts.
1) ptdiag - reports no hardware failures
2) /var/adm/messages - reports no issues relating to the problem mentioned above.
3) swap -l - the server has plenty of swap and shows no need for additional swap space Here is the output from swap -l
swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
/dev/vx/dsk/swapvol 213,6 16 8389632 8358176
I should also mention that /tmp is not full and is currently only at 2% of it's capacity.
4) ndd shows that the link speed, duplex, etc. are correct at 100Mbps full-duplex.
5) System uptime is at 337 days and the uptime command currently shows the following load: load average: 0.12, 0.11, 0.09
6) vxdisk list shows the two internal mirrored disks as being online and no errors. iostat -En shows no soft or hard errors on the two disks
7) This server only has two users and the main applications in use are mysql and apache.
8) I have upgraded to the latest version of the vim editor and the problem still persists. I have also had the users upgrade to the latest version of Putty and to turn on the logging feature of Putty which hasn't revealed any information as to why the sessions are unexpectedly terminating.
9) I have checked the /etc/default/login setting for the "TIMEOUT" variable which is commented out. I also checked the users profiles and verified that there are no timeout variables defined.
10) Here is my netstat -i output:
Name Mtu Net/Dest Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Collis Queue
lo0 8232 loopback localhost 52375982 0 52375982 0 0 0
qfe0 1500 servername servername 2319804623 29884 1493848177 0 0 0
qfe1 1500 servernamea servernamea 231550668 0 3694 0 0 0
qfe2 1500 servernameb servernameb 40944152 1 65630146 0 0 0
Some of these numbers look high, but I don't see any collisions.
Any help would be appreciated. If additional commands need to be run, please advise and I will gladly post.
Thanks much for any assistance.

Hi Darren,
The user's vim session dies when the users are actively typing.
As for there being a firewall or NAT device between the workstation and the server, yes, there is. The users are in one building and the server is housed in a datacenter in a separate building. The users do not have this issue with out other Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 servers...only this one particular server. A traceroute to the server takes only 5 hops and returns quickly.
As for the logs, I just checked /var/adm/messages and it is reporting the following types of messages over and over.:
[ID 317013 daemon.notice] bpcd[11746] from some IP
I think these messages are generated from Veritas Netbackup which is administered by a separate team than what I am on, but I can have them investigate.

Character encoding issue

I'm using the below give code to send mail in Trukish language.
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setText(message, "utf-8", "html");
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
Transport.send(msg);
But my customer says that he gets sometime unreadable characters in mail. I'm not able to understand how to solve this character encoding issue.
Should i ask him to change his mail client's character encoding settings?
If yes which one he should set.

Send the same characters using a different mailer (e.g., Thunderbird or Outlook).
If they're received correctly, come the message from that mailer with the message
from JavaMail. Most likely other mailers are using a Turkish-specific charset instead
of UTF-8.

Issues during Component Batch Determination for Process Orders

Hi,
I am encountering a strange issue during component batch determination of process order.
1. During creation of process order, when I execute batch determination, systems does determination based on strategies we have set and when I click on Copy it gives an error
"Log cannot be saved: Object/subobject not specified"
Message no. BL201
*Diagnosis
Log save cancelled because at least one log contains no object or subobject.
Object and subobject are needed to classify application logs because there are several log types. Only a few logs are managed in main memory at runtime, so this classification is not needed.
If the logs are to be saved in the database, object/subobject must be specified for later retrieval.
Procedure for System Administration
Object/sub object can be passed when a log is created (function module BAL_LOG_CREATE) and changed with BAL_LOG_CHANGE.
The possible values for object and sub object must be configured in transaction SLG0.*
If I save the order with CRTD status and come back again in change mode and do determination, It works fine.
Again when the order is in REL status and do the determination, It gives the same error.
This happens only for a specific plant, In other plants batch determination works in all scenarios.
I checked for all plant related Config for batch determination and coudn't find any discrepancies.
Please advise how to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance for your help
Regards,
Aheesh

There Is no direct solution for your requirement just try this work around.
While defining the batch determination search strategy for process order in COB1, there is one column Quantity proposal where you can attach the Routines (This is written in ABAB code ) make use of this, define New Routines with ABAB help to fulfill your requirement. Try this if found useful award full points.
