Weirdness editing files in singleuser mode

Here's an odd one.
We recently lost the root password for one of our boxen (probably a caps-lock incident when changing it or something), so I booted the host in single user mode from Jumpstart (boot net -s), and mounted the disk (c0t0d0s0) on /a
I edited /a/etc/shadow to remove the root password hash, edited /a/etc/vfstab to change the root disk device from /dev/md/dsk/d10 (SDS mirror) to the hardware disk (/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0) in order to cleanly remirror the changes later on.
Rebooted using the hardware device of c0t0d0s0 as the boot device. Still couldn't get in as root.
Booted again from Jumpstart, only to find the contents of /etc/vfstab in /etc/shadow .
I have looked at the console history, and I'm utterly sure I didn't accidentally save vfstab in shadow.
Anyone seen anything like this before? It's happened to other files too while booted off CD and Jumpstart in previous incidents.

Hi,
Only weirdness I've encountered while editing files in SingleUser is terminal gets crazy unless I do this first:
TERM=vt100
export $TERM
Haven't ever had any system -- from SS1 to E15K -- hammer one file with another different file which I was editing. If that continues, maybe you should open a service call with Sun....?

Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo. Or "cannot find original photo". Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

I did copy it to my desktop, but it still won't let me open it. I think the file on the disc might be corrupt or something like that though the cd itself checks out fine as far as viruses go. I was able to verify the disc, but that's about it. My husband tried it on his iMac and we have the same issue. It's unzipping the folder, but won't let us open the folder on both the Mac Book Pro or the iMac by double clicking, going to file/open or right clicking. It just keeps saying the same message as I posted above. I think I'm just going to have the client put the pictures on either a memory card or a USB memory stick so she won't have to compress the files for zipping purposes. It's been too frustrating trying to open this folder on this cd she gave me. She said she created/zipped the cd on her Mac Book Pro but it sure won't open on mine.

Problems with manually renaming files in List Mode

I have an iMac 24" 2.4 Ghz with 4 Gb of RAM. Sometimes when I try to rename a file in a folder in List mode, I get unexpected and strange behavior. It is intermittent. It might be that I cannot get the highlighted current name to unhighlight (in cases where I only want to change a portion of the name), or the filename box might disappear, or the folder seems to lockup, or I get blocks every other space instead of letters. Weird, strange results. I do know that I can minimize the problem, if when first entering the filename box (by hitting 'return') I move the cursor via the cursor keys to the right over the extension and then back to the left. When I do that, it seems like I have less problems.
All I can say is that it doesn't seem to be a robust as what I was used to in the Windows world. I'm new to Mac and this is the only complaint I have. I'm ecstatic about my Mac and can't believe I waited this long to convert over to it. If I could get this little glitch fixed, I'll be a 'happy camper'! (the problem's certainly not enough to make me go back to the misery I was in with Microsoft.)
Has anyone else experienced any problems such as this? Or, is there a possibility that there is something wrong with my Mac?
Or, am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any kind help I receive.

Finder for Intel is the same as Finder for PPC. Its the same code, sans some endian conversions.
As for the renaming problem. Two things come to mind. In Tiger if you selected a file and pressed return, no matter what view style you were in, it would bring up the edit field and the entire name would be highlighted. In Leopard, this was changed slightly where it will now highlight everything up to the file extension. So if you have a file called 'foo.txt', it will highlight just 'foo'. This is a nice feature IMO because more often then not I don't want to change the file extension, only the 'body' of the file name.
The Edit box disappearing is a bug that has been around for a couple OS releases where if something causes the view to update (more specifically the HIDataBrowser control List View is made of) while your renaming something, it will cancel the rename session. This can be caused by a bunch of things, like the size of a file changing or mod date changing or file being added to the directory etc. It has been around for a while, but has only become more prominant due to the addition of Icon Thumbnails in Leopard. When the thumbnail is created for the file by the Finder, List View updates to show the new thumbnail which cancels the edit session. There are a couple workarounds for this:
1) Switch to Icon or Column View
2) Wait for all the thumbnails to be created before starting to edit file names. Thumbnails appear pretty quickly, and only for the files that are currently visible in the window, so you shouldn't have to wait very long, and it only happens the first time you view that folder.
3) Press Command-J while in List View and uncheck "Show Icon Previews" and then click the "Use as Defaults" button. That will turn off the icon thumbnails for all windows in List View.
I haven't seen a problem with "blocks showing up every other space" though. I assume you mean a solid black square, right? Sounds like an invalid character in the file name. Renaming the file to something else should cure that one.

Eclipse +flex 3 plugin crashes when trying to see mxml file in design mode

Hi,
I have strange problem I've been struggling with for 3 days.
I have eclipse-jee-europa-fall2-win32(eclipse europa 3.3.1.1)
+ adobe flex 3 eclipse plugin.
My workspace consists of several projects + one library.
There is not problem when trying to edit any mxml file when
my library is not imported yet. Once I import it to my workspace I
cannot see any mxml file in design mode since it crashes with the
following msg in log:
Did anyone have similar problem and maybe knows the
solutiuon? I've reinstalled/redownoaded eclipse, flex plugin, flash
players and so on. What's more it happens only on my machine - same
project on different one works without crushing.

I've found solution by myself so I'll present it here. Maybe
someone will need it.
The problem of such behaviour was that Flex plugin always (at
least on my pc) wants to ustart eclipse using its own JRE from here
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre (default dir).
This environment is Java 5. When you go to
eclipse>window>preferences>Java>Installed JREs and you
delete default Flex JRE, add new to point to for example C:\Program
Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 eclipse still uses JRE from C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre. Do not know why
Flex/eclipse does that but if you simply overwrite C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre files with newer JRE from
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 all works perfectly.
Hope it helps somebody ;-)
thanks Artur

Hi Paul,
yes the ASM is down.
That was confusing me. If I shutdown the other node the +ASM can start and clustering com´s up normal.
It looks like only one node can use voting or ocr....
The behavior looks like the interlink is down buts is not ;:-(
One node ( first com´s up) start normally and take all cluster resources ...scan .. the vips..
And second node show this error mess..
Thanks

When filtering by keyword and using "Edit In" with Photoshop, edited file does not show up in list

When I do an "edit in" using CS5 and save it, the edited file does not show up in my LR4 preview window.
Message title was edited by: Brett N

There are two distinct modes by which Edit In... may first open an image into PS: as a fully pre-converted rendered file; or as an on-the-fly converted image in memory.
(When LR opens a PS-edited image a second time into PS, using "Edit Original", the former option is always used.)
In the latter case, it is ACR which does this on-the-fly conversion, working from the original image (as imported into LR) plus your subsequent LR adjustment metadata. This means ACR compatibility with LR becomes an issue - as it is not, with the pre-rendered file option.
There is a useful clue to which mode is being used:
the title of the PS document window, in the case of the on-the-fly conversion, still shows the name of the Raw file (or whatever) that you started with in LR... no file has been saved as yet, to say any different. You can Save or Save as, wherever and under whatever name, and from now on LR will look there for your edited image. Or if you close unsaved, LR has no edited image to show at all.
the title of the PS document window in the pre-rendered case, is the name of a file already saved on disk and already showing in LR. If you then saved this elsewhere, you would merely make a duplicate which LR cannot know about - and if this duplicate is the one which contains your PS work, LR will accordingly not show that. It is busy showing the content of the specific file that was passed to PS.
So, if inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334.dng - you can save it wherever you like. If inside CS5 your document is called something like IMG23334-edit.tif - you will have to save your changes back to that exact same file, in order for them to be seen in LR.

Processing Large Files using Chunk Mode with ICO

Hi All,
I am trying to process Large files using ICO. I am on PI 7.3 and I am using new feature of PI 7.3, to split the input file into chunks.
And I know that we can not use mapping while using Chunk Mode.
While trying I noticed below points:
1) I had Created Data Type, Message Type and Interfces in ESR and used the same in my scenario (No mapping was defined)Sender and receiver DT were same.
Result: Scenario did not work. It created only one Chunk file (.tmp file) and terminated.
2) I used Dummy Interface in my scenario and it worked Fine.
So, Please confirm if we should always USE DUMMY Interfaces in Scenario while using Chunk mode in PI 7.3 Or Is there something that I am missing.
Thanks in Advance,
- Pooja.

According to this blog:
File/FTP Adapter - Large File Transfer (Chunk Mode)
The following limitations apply to the chunk mode in File Adapter
As per the above screenshots, the split never cosiders the payload. It's just a binary split. So the following limitations would apply
Only for File Sender to File Receiver
No Mapping
No Content Based Routing
No Content Conversion
No Custom Modules
Probably you are doing content conversion that is why it is not working.
Hope this helps,
Mark

How to change the suffix for externally edited files?

Hi,
How can I change the suffix Lightroom adds to externally edited files?
If I want it to be "-E" instead of "-Edit" for example, or "-Mod" instead of the long and ugly "-Modifier" in french version.
That would help me to get shorter filenames.
Thank you!

Refernce files and external edited files

Hello,
i am testing Aperture and i was wondering if it was possible to use only refernced files.
in my Library there are only refernced files. But if I use PS to edit an files - aperture creates a working copy that will be editet an after PS saved the file Aperture as the updated copy stored in the library.
the library-file is increasing the amount of the filesize of the saved picture.
Is there anyway not to save the edited file in the library but have it as a refernced file in the library while using that very nice workflow?
Thanks
Maverick

Is this true???
My experience is that Ap creates either psd or tif file and exports it out to PS. Once editing is done, Ap reimports the edited files into Ap Library and not just modification data (since PS does change the image at pixel level, not non-destructive). The result is each tif/psd file is increasing the library size by 50+mb, depending on size of your original image.
Since I only use referenced masters, would you please be kind enough to tell me what option/steps I need to take so that, either the externally edited file gets automatically stored in the folder that the master file is, or if Ap truly only keep mod data, how I do that?
Currently, I export manually, and edit the file directly in PS and save, then re-import the edited image as referenced master and stack with the original raw. Cumbersome, but the file stays referenced in my folder where the original raw file is.
Thanks...

Help!Airport Extreme Drive: Editing Files in Windows adds mysterious 0 char

Hi, I'm experiencing what's probably the strangest bug I've seen in a long time. Maybe you know what to do...
Hardware: Airport Extreme + USB Harddisk (Lacie Two Big in RAID 1 mode) connected to it. Airport Driver is at the latest version (7.2.1) (also tried with 7.2 with the same result)
The whole thing works beautifully with my Macbook Pro.
My Windows XP computer sees the harddisk, can access the files. I can also copy files from the computer's hard drive to the Airport Disk well.
But when I edit files (with OpenOffice, Notepad, ...) the files end up corrupt, e.g. with 0 characters (ascii 0) inserted at the beginning.
Here's what I'm doing:
1. in the windows explorer, get to a folder on the remote disk.
2. right mouse button -> new text file.
3. double click on text file --> notepad comes up
4. type 1234 , then save
5. double click on text file --> content is " 1234"
6. file size is also 8 bytes instead of 4, in emacs hex mode I can see that the first four characters that were magically appearing are ascii 0 characters.
If I do the same with different text, a different number of null characters are prepended, always as many characters as I was entering.
Strangely, creating the same file on a local drive and copying it to the airport HD doesn't mess it up.
I have no clue what could cause this bizarre effect, but my airport harddisk is pretty unusable until I found out how to get Windows to save files properly on it. Did anybody experience something similar?

Others have reported this problem, and from the many discussions I have seen on this topic there is no effective solution. There seem to be (thus far) unexplained reliability problems with saving/retrieving files on the Airport disk, which trouble some people more than others.
The best workaround is to do what you have already discovered - do all file editing on a local copy of the file. Then copy the file to the Airport disk when editing is complete.

API0259: The object cannot be edited in Read-Only mode!

All,
I'm getting the following error when trying to import an MDL file into my repository:
API0259: The object cannot be edited in Read-Only mode!
Does anyone know what this relates to?

Hmmmm, sounds like it is hanging up on a conflict with the configuration name from your source repository and the configuration names in your target. Not sure that I have time to try and replicate that on my own system today.
What I might suggest you try is to, on your source, set the project configuration back to the standard "DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION", get your module configured to use it, and re-export the mapping. Then you can fix your configuration back to where it should be.
Do the same re-configuration on the target prior to import and see if that resolves the problem.
Now, clearly this is not optimal and it would be really nice to find out WHY the conflict is occurring, but it would at least get this mapping imported for now.

And Vader, it is not that I don't have full faith that Oracle always raises the correct error message for a problem..... but, well, I've USED Oracle for too many years not to consider the possibility.
Case in point in OWB, try putting an invalid value into the OWB-supplied WB_Date_From_Julian function
e.g. select WB_Date_From_Julian(-1) from dual;
10:55:12 Error: ORA-21000: error number argument to raise_application_error of -1854 is out of range
ORA-06512: at "OWB_MGR.WB_DATE_FROM_JULIAN", line 7
because some bright puppy at Oracle decided to try and raise an Oracle Built-in Error via raise_application_error instead of just using "raise", and - of course - the Oracle error code isn't within the allowable range.
Error messages are nice, but you can't always trust 'em - which is why I look to expanded possibilities when neccessary.

Cannot read properties files in debug mode .....

I am using JDeveloper 10g (10.1.3.0.4) and cannot seem to read properties files in debug mode, while it runs fine in Run (non debug) mode!!
For code like this:
Properties props = new Properties();
String dbPropsFile = "/pol_main.properties";
InputStream is;
is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(dbPropsFile); <---- ERRORS HERE!
props.load(is);
I get error messages like:
"Unable to find source file for package oracle.classloader, filename PolicyClassLoader.java".
Cannot go any further.
I am using the "hotspot" virtual machine under Project debug options. Using Sun's
JDK 1.5 update 6 with Ojvm installed.
Thanks.

I think I figured out something. In jDeveloper 10.1.3, open your project properties and click on the Run/Debug treeview branch. Now Edit the Run Configuration you are using (mine is Default) and check the Run Directory. If I change this to be the root of my source, which is one level down from my .jpr file, it now uses my standard path and finds my files. I suppose you could also change this to use the classes directory as the root as long as your props files were there too. My problems seem to be the result of my project root being one folder higher than my source root due to the way our project was imported from CVS. --Ed

Cannot Save edited files

Hello Group,
Has anyone experienced this problem?? We have had this
problem 2 times, and it seems related to after a Windows automatic
update as run. Platform is an HP laptop, running windows XP.
We have several *.cp files. We open one file, and delete an
audio track from a slide, and then attempt to save the edited file.
The edited file will not save. For some reason Captivate
still sees the "different" file name as the same name as previous
file. The edit is not saved. We even created a new folder on the
C:\ drive, and copy a file in, open it, or attempt to open an
edited file that somehow got saved, and then Captivate say "this
file is in a format that captivate does not recogize"
Has anyone else seen something like this?
captivate seems to work ok on my desktop pc, but not the
laptop??? Perhaps it is some sort of problem with the laptop
Thanks,
eric

You have a 16-bit image and jpeg is an 8 bit format. You can set the raw converter to export as 8 bit by using the pulldown menu below the preview area, or you can just go to Image>Mode>8 bits/channel in the editor.

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?

People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
So IMO we can divide image processing into:
operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

Opening a file with FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode (Only on Windows)

Hi,
We have an application that imports logs from several 3rd party vendor's applications. Basically what we do is import the logs in real time, i.e we do have a live FileInputstream connection to the log file. Now, when the 3rd party applications that rotate these logs (many of them do when they grow big or scheduled periodically), all unix flavors dont see to have any problem, while the windows does complain that the device or resource is busy and the original application is not allowed to rotate it. When i dug into the native code of windows jvm, i found that the file is not opened in the FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode and only with FILE_SHARE_READ and FILE_SHARE_WRITE modes. When we wrote a separate C++ application the opens a file with FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode, we found that the logs are rotatable.
Now, how can we instruct the JVM to open a file with FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode? Is there any such implementation already or do i have to come up with another class extending the FileInputStream and use a totally different open method where the file is opened with this mode in the native code?
Thanks

Hello,
I think you can write :
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start.exe " + MyFileDialog.getDirectory() + MyFileDialog.getFile());
So, "start.exe" choose the application (not valid for NT machine), ".getDirectory()" return the PATH and ".getFile()" return the NAME.
