What are the recommended steps to upgrade from CF7 to CF8

I have read all of the documentation for how to upgrade from
CF 7.02 to CF 8. Well there is actually only one blurb in all of
the CF docs.
"Upgrade installation You can upgrade from ColdFusion MX,
ColdFusion MX 6.1, and ColdFusion MX 7. When upgrading from
ColdFusion MX, ColdFusion MX 6.1, or ColdFusion MX 7, the installer
preserves the existing settings and installs in a new directory,
automatically assigning ports that do not conflict with the
existing installation."
OK that sounds simple enough, so i went ahead and installed
it. Well it did not work, now I am stuck somewhere between 7 and 8.
My basic step, as I can best recall at 1:00AM.
* Select Multi server Configuration
* Select install path, I used D:\JRun4
* This is where my existing cf7 install was located
* installer told me port 8300 was being used so it gave me
port 8306 instead
* Selected d: for ColdFusion8DotNetService install path
* Select Passwords for admin and rds
* installed cf
* received error after install
(Adobe_ColdFusion_8_InstallLog.log)
ANT Script Error:
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - jrun.xmlUnable to remove existing
file D:\JRun4\bin\jrun.exe
* rebooted
* can't login to cfadmin at port 8306
* tried to login to cfadmin at port 8300, everythin works
* it appears the cf7 services are still running,
* didn't notice any new cf8 services, excpet the dotnet
stuff
Any assistance would be appriciated.
I am on windows 2003/CF8EE/Multiserver configuration

Essentially CF comes with the updates that will become JRun 4
Updater 7
integrated into it. (The beta of Updater 7 is under way).

Use the CAR file, XML file formats have changed between
versions.

What you are describing is a simultaneous update of JRun and
CF. For
just an update of CF you need to redeploy the CF EAR file as
described
in the JRun manual. For just an update of JRun you have to
wait until
updater 7 is released (or join the beta and file bugs if you
don't like
the procedure).

Use a CAR file for that.

In place upgrades are never clean. In my book, an upgrade
means
rebuilding from scratch.

Transfer ADOBE creative Suite from an old Mac to a new Mac, I have the code but I don't have a CD. What are the correct steps?

Hi
I bought a new Mac and I want to transfer my Adobe Creative Suit CS6 to it from my old one. What are the correct steps? Please note that I don't have a CD because I downloaded it via the net. It was an upgrade for the student edition. I heard something about deactivation and reactivation but I don't want to do something wrong then lose my precious software. Please help. Thanks.

You can download the software and install it using the page linked below.
CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html
You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines, so there should be no reason to deactivate it on your other machine, or at least you can wait until you see it loaded and working on the new one.

Thanks in Advance

If yours is a PPC iMac (G4 or G5) you cannot upgrade further.
If it is an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)

What are the config steps for contract mass change and quota arrangement?

Hi friends
what are the config steps for contract mass change and quota arrangement?
Regards
Raj Kumar

Process Flow
The mass change process consists of four steps. You navigate between these steps by choosing the Next and Back buttons located at the bottom right-hand corner of the screens.
       1.      Search for contracts
You search for and select the contracts or the contract hierarchy that you want to change.
Contracts that have the status Closed cannot be changed.
       2.      Define mass changes
You specify the changes you want to make.
You make changes at header data level and at item data level by choosing the relevant change methods. A green tick appears next to each change parameter so that you can see where changes are already active.
Once you enter this step, the documents you have selected to be changed are locked so that other users cannot make changes to them until you are finished with this process.
       3.      Simulate mass changes
Here you can perform a trial run of your mass changes. This simulation step is optional.
We recommend that you perform this step so that you can check how the change methods you have chosen will be processed by the system.
You receive status messages about the change methods for each contract and can quickly see whether any errors arise in connection with the proposed changes at this stage. From this step, it is easier for you to go back and correct the error than after applying the changes.
Background processing
The system processes the changes in the background.
If there are a large number of contracts to be processed, this step could take some time to complete. In this case, you can leave the transaction so that you can, for example, carry out other tasks in the meantime.
The system sends you an e-mail once the simulation step is complete. The e-mail contains a link to the relevant screen in the application so that you can return to it when it is convenient for you to do so. If you have left the SRM application, you can only return via this link.
Here you can see the status of the changes and, if necessary, you can correct any errors by going back to the Define mass changes step.
The messages that you receive in the simulation step are not confirmation that a change has been performed. They simulate the messages you get after you apply the changes. You must complete the final step of the mass change process and apply the changes before they take effect.
       4.      Carry out mass changes
Here you apply the changes to the contracts.
You cannot reverse this step, which is why we advise you to perform the simulation step beforehand.

What are the different steps to follow in order to develop an application and deploy it into a PAC

Hi,
I developped a program on my computer but in order to deploy it in a PAC , I don't know what are the different steps to follow?
What are the difference between a stand alone application and communication with server mode.
Can the file which will be downloaded into the PAC be in a form othre than (.exe).
what does the deployment licence consist of??? is it a software?
if the file is .exe then how to maintain it?
Thank you for all,
Regards

Hi!
   Since I'm familiar with FieldPoint PACs, I'll refer to that (but maybe it is similar for cRIO...).
   An embedded application (standalone), runs entirely and independently on the PAC, while if you're not doing this, you'll have your computer, with LabView, which is controlling the PAC. In this mode, application is dowloaded in PAC's RAM, so when you reboot controller, application will be lost. If you build an embedded application, you can provide for application to boot authomatically at boot, each time the PAC reboots. These are some basic stuffs on embedded applications with LV.
    To deploy an application to a PAC, you need LabVIEW + Real-Time module. Without it, you can't build an embedded application on PACs.
    usually, the file dowloaded is an .exe, and some libraries. What would you like to have, exactly? For example, I think you can buy a simple .exe, which is universal, which loads VIs dinamically, so you can download directly VIs, but I've never tried this way....
   Deployment license, I think, refer to PCs, id est, when you use a PC or PXI as embedded target, in PACs, you have it bundled (it seems to me) whit the PAC you buy, so you don't have to buy an extra license for every PAC you ship with your application. Otherwise, if you develop a Real-Time application for a PC, you will ship PC + OS licensed + Real-Time extension licensed, but this is not your case, since you'll use PACs.
   The maintain problem... I've already faced with! Simply, for my needs it was enough to make an application which loads configuration files, depending on different task the controller has to do. If you have to dowload a completely new version of VI.... it's better to deploy new application from LV. But maybe you can bypass this problem with dinamic VIs loading...
    Let me know if this help.... Have a nice day!

What is the recommended way to upgrade system ruby and python binaries and their libraries?

I'd like to upgrade my system ruby to 1.9.2 instead of old 1.8.7. Also was wondering what's the recommended way of upgrading any scripting languages installed on system?

Hi Sogaard,
see below:
How does SAP recommend to integrate Webi-report in the SAP Portal? Is it through an URL iview, the iview templates (thumbnail, folder and alert) or through the Master Iview?
The sample iViews are just samples for a particular case. The iView template allows you to use any application on the BusinessObjects system - including the viewing of content. What you are looking for is the creation process for WebI. So you have 2 options: you can use the KM integration and you can build a java application that offers the workflow you looking for and integrate it with the iView template
Depending on what method should be used, I'd like to know which settings to be focused on. For instance, if the Master Iview is to be used, should opendocument be used instead of reports? And what other customizations will have to be done in order to integrate a Webi-report instead of a Crystal-Report?
OpenDocument is for viewing reports. The Installation Guide outlines the integration of the iView template and the KM part.
What is the intended use for the BOBJ repositoy manager? Would that be the way to integrate the Info-view?
This is the integration into the KM repository which provides a richer functionality then just an iView.

What is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

what is the easiest way to upgrade from OS X 10.4.11 to 10.5 Leopard

You should consider this:
Here are the minimum specs your Mac will need to run Leopard, according to Apple:
Intel, G5, or 867MHz+ G4 processor
512 megs of RAM MINIMUM (though if you only have 512 megs of RAM you may actually find you need more.)
DVD drive (Leopard is shipping on a DVD, and your Mac needs to read it to be able to install it)
9GB of free disk space
Hope this helps

What are the correct steps for installing Oracle Entitlement Server SSM?

Can somebody explain what are the correct steps to install OES SSM 10.1.4.3? I have installed OES admin 10.1.4.3 and applied the CP2 patch. it is allowing me to open Entitlement Administration, where I can define the policy.
Is it sufficient to have this Entitlement Admin to call the policy from BPM? Do I need a SSM ?
When I try to configure Java SSM using ConfigTool.bat -process myssm_config.properties I am getting the following error

What are the sequence steps involved in MM FLOW

what are the sequence steps involved in MM FLOW?
please explain.

Process Flow
The typical procurement cycle for a service or material consists of the following phases:
1. Determination of Requirements
Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials planning and control. (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based approach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master records, use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are important aspects of the latter.) You can enter purchase requisitions yourself, or they can be generated automatically by the materials planning and control system.
2. Source Determination
The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements. This speeds the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically via SAP EDI, if desired.
3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations
The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing you to compare a number of different quotations. Rejection letters can be sent automatically.
4. Purchase Order Processing
The Purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions, you can generate Pos yourself or have the system generate them automatically. Vendor scheduling agreements and contracts (in the SAP System, types of longer-term purchase agreement) are also supported.
5. Purchase Order Follow-Up
The system checks the reminder periods you have specified and - if necessary - automatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals. It also provides you with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
6. Goods Receiving and Inventory Management
Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the Po number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over- and under deliveries of ordered goods.
7. Invoice Verification
The system supports the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable clerk is notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access to PO and goods receipt data. This speeds the process of auditing and clearing invoices for payment.
Pur info record is nothing but a master data like thing which will be maintained for different materials to determine the prices etc.It Specifies the number that uniquely identifies a record.
For Example: an info record is based on Plant Vendor and Material
Based on these three the Material Prices will be calculated
for different combinations different values are taken into consideration.
During pricing it brings these values automatically based on this info record.
Use ME11 Tcode to create this record.

What are the config steps for contract hierarchies and vendor hierarchies?

Hi friends
what are the config steps for contract hierarchies and vendor hierarchies?
Regards
Raj Kumar

Contract hierarchies
A function that enables users authorized to create a purchasing contract to define relationships between super- and subordinate contracts.
A contract hierarchy consists of one or multiple contracts and is subject to the following rules:
The top node of the hierarchy cannot have a superordinate contract
Every contract except for the top node has exactly one superordinate contract
Every contract can have none, one, or multiple subordinate contract(s)
A contract can be part of no hierarchy or exactly one hierarchy
Note:Contract hierarchies are only available for purchasing contracts. They are not available for global outline agreements.
You can activate this from SRM Server> Cross application settings>Activate Hierarchies for Product Categories, Vendors, and Contracts.
Note:
These hierarchy functions should not be reset once they have been activated.
Similiarly you can do this for Vendor Hirerachies.

What are the basic steps for creating a content repository?

I am trying to create a document store on a file system (fsdb) that will hold files that are ftp's to that location. Is this possible using KM? If so, what are the basic steps for creating a file system repository and using it through KM? I have found stuff on help.sap.com but that only tells you what each component does not what actual steps need to be taken to setup KM, such as user rights , creating an entry point, so that all of KM is not visible, etc...
If anyone knows of any guides that show a step by step process that would be great too.
Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul
First of all you need to create a new repository
Suppose you want to add all the documents under folder Paul under C: Drive
(Even you can put whole documents of C: drive into Paul)
Navigate to System Admin -> System Configuration -> Knowledge management -> Content Management -> Repository Manager -> File System Repository
There you can create a new directory by clicking on button New
Give the parameters as follows :-
Name               :           Anything you like
Description       :           Anything you want
Prefix (must start with /) : Probably same as your repository name like \Paul
Lookup mode : caseless
Root Directory   : C:\Paul
NOTE: This is the trick. You need to give the proper path means folder path which you want use as repository)
Repository Services : Any services you want
Property Search : Managercom.sapportals.wcm.repository.manager.generic.search.SimplePropertySearchManager
Security Manager         :           AclSecurityManager
ACL Manager Cache   :           ca_cm_rep_acl
The save it
Now see whether the same repository is coming under KM Content or not, if not may be after restart it will come.
I think the above information will help you. If still you have problem, please feel free to contect me.
