Win32_NTLogEvent sometimes returns null for the Message field even though the event does contain a message

This does not happen often but it does happen. We have an application that regular runs WMI queries to collect windows events. However, on a particular machine, on particular events, the windows event description that comes from the Win32_NTLogEvent.Message
field is null. The event does indeed have a description and that can clearly be seen in the Event Viewer.
One particular event that causes the problem is
Event Type: Information
Event Source: MsiInstaller
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1035
Date:  4/21/2010
Time:  8:51:53 AM
User:  NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: COMP201002
Description:
Windows Installer reconfigured the product. Product Name: 32 Bit HP BiDi Channel Components Installer. Product Version: 1.1.0.2. Product Language: 1033. Reconfiguration success or error status: 0.
As you can see, the description exists. However, the field returned by WMI is null.
Any way i can diagnose the problem to see what's going on? Is this a WMI bug?

Hi markoueis, I suggest you first check these links for troubleshooting WMI as the issue can be caused by WMI on the particular machine:

  • I do not receive notifications for my email account even though the email setting in Notifications is turned on. How can I fix this?

    In iOS 5 I do not receive notifications for my email account even though  the email setting in Notifications is turned on. I do receive other notifications. Does anyone have any suggestion on what is wrong or how I should correct it? Thanks.

    Hey M0904,
    I found the following information regarding troubleshooting notifications, I'd run through them and see if they resolve the issue:
    iOS: Understanding Notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
    Troubleshooting notifications
    Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you are not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
    Verify that the app supports notifications.
    After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app at least once to begin receiving notifications.
    If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
    Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
    If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    If you are still unable to receive notifications and you are using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that the network or firewall is not blocking access to port 5223.
    Have a good one,

  • HT4990 When I try to download an app it is asking for the billing address even though the app is free and then it does not accept post code

    When I down load an app it is asking for a billing address even though the app is free after I enter the required details it does accept the post code

    Try to set it up as new device, explained here:

    Start without using the backup after the restore process, to rule out a software problem.
    If the phone is working after that, use the backup to restore from. In case the problem comes back, your backup contained corrupt data and you'll have to start again without the backup.

  • Not to show the detail records even though the mater records are existing.

    Dear Oracle
    I would like not to show the detail records even though the mater records are existing. Is there any block preperty I can set?
    Thanks

    I don't know the reason why you would want to do that but if you do not want to any record in the master block in
    a master-details format, then you could achieve this by setting the WHERE clause property in the block.
    e.g., master block DEPT (base table DEPT) and detail block EMP (base table EMP)
    table DEPT is as follow
    dept_id (pk)
    dept_name
    table EMP is as follow
    emp_id
    emp_name
    dept_id (fk)
    then you can set the WHERE clause in the DEPT block as follows
    exists (select 1 from emp a where a.dept_id = dept.dept_id)
    hope this help

  • Why do I have to sign in to the app store even though the download is free?

    why do I have to sign in to the app store even though the download is free?

    Because all content that you download from the iTunes stores is coated with your Apple ID.

  • Why is the "From:" field being changed in Mac Mail.  I have multiple gmail accounts setup and it seems to change the "FROM" field even though I've selected which account to use to send the email.

    So
    I've got multiple gmail accounts setup in Mac Mail.
    Somtimes when I send or forward emails, it uses the wrong FROM field even though I'm declaring
    specifically which account to use.
    This becomes apparent when the person replies to my message and it goes to the wrong account

    Check you accounts in Mail and make sure each account has the correct outgoing server address. Check the box to use only that server.
    Second, go to the gmail website and in settings under the account tab, make sure you have the correct settings for replying to messages.

  • Contact photos are not showing up in Mail message list, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it.

    I'm using Mail 5.3 and Address Book 6.1.3 on X 10.7.5. I want my contact photos to show up in the message list on Mail, but only some of them do, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it. I've even tried replacing a photo that doesn't show up with a photo that does show up for a different contact but no luck. I am syncing to one other Mac, an iPhone and an iPad via iCloud.

  • Can I get back the original filename even though the file is missing

    I imported 900 RAW images from my desktop into Lightroom, edited them, renamed the filename, and exported them into JPGs. Since I no longer needed the RAW images on my desktop I moved them over to an external hard drive. So now the images are still visible in my Lightroom catalog, but there is no photo to back it up since I moved the original files to the external hard drive. After realizing that I exported the images at 150 dpi instead of 300 dpi I need to re-export the images from lightroon at the proper resolution. But since I moved the originals to the external hard drive there is no photo to back it up in lightroom anymore. So I went to locate the files by clicking on the  "?"  but since I renamed the file when I exported them, the original filename on the external hard drive is now different from the filename in the catalog. Is the only solution to locate the file one by one?  Is there any way I can do them all at once even though the original filename is different from the filename in my lightoom catalog? The original filename is still listed in the metadata, but since the originals are missing it can't change it back.  Please help!

    It sounds as though you moved the files and renamed them outside of Lightroom.  Not a good idea.  I'm not really going to answer the question about retrieving the files.  But if your only concern is the resolution then I wouldn't concern myself about changing the images.  That resolution setting really has no impact or effect of any kind on your images.  It doesn't change the size, or the quality at all.  If you have an image that is 2000x3000 pixels (for instance) it will be that same size regardless of what the resolution setting is.  The only real value that setting has is to give another user an indication of the intent for the image.  When you look at an image in Photoshop and look at the image size feature, Photoshop will tell you the dimensions of the image at that resolution, but that doesn't change anything about the image.

  • My wireless earbuds work just fine, but some third-party apps play audio only through the iPod speaker even though the buds are properly connected.

    My wireless earbuds work just fine, but some third-party apps play audio only through the iPod and iPhone speaker even though the buds are properly connected. Does anyone know why and is there a solution?

    Assuming you are using Bluetooth headphones, do the apps have the option to use Bluetooth?
    The app should have an option to select the speaker (or wired earphones) or the Bluetooth headphones.

  • When I move to the next record on a form it shows the entries for the previous record even though the record is actually null

    I have a form that logs fibre analysis for asbestos analaysis. Let's say I am analysisng 2 samples. I log all the details for the first sample and hit save. Now I use the scroll button to move to the next sample. When the screen refreshes all the entries for the first sample are still showing on the screen. But these are just phantom entries, when I look at the back-end database there are of course no entries against the second sample. This does not occur with any other browser.
    I have tried clearing the cache to no avail.
    Any ideas?

    Is Firefox filling the form via the cache or via saved form data?
    If this data still gets filled when "Remember search and form history" is disabled the Firefox fills it from the cache.
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": "Remember search and form history"
    In such a case a hard refresh via Ctrl + F5 might help to reset the form data.

  • I have been editing project for two weeks and now I get ghosts of other images fromt eh project coming up in the wrong places even though the thumbnail looks right. Help.

    Help. I have been editing a project for two weeks and now it gets ghosts of ohter images from the project coming up in the wrong places. The thumbnail has the correct image but the image either does not display and its black or an old image or another one shows.

    When I have problems like this I do two things. First I shut down and restart iMovie. Sometimes that rejuggles the date. But I am sure you have been doing that in such a long project.
    The Second thing I do is delete iMovie preferences, which can get corrupted.

  • I lost my original disk for photoshop 7... I need to update.. it won't let me.. and keeps asking for the disk.. even though the program is on my pc... How can i get my update?

    I have photoshop 7 on my pc but have lost my original disk.... I went to update it and  the update is not seeing the file on my pc... and it keeps asking for my disk.. but i can't find it...
    How can i update it...

    Ah, you had Photoshop 7.0 working, and now it's not.  I see that as a separate issue to updating it.  I'm not sure why it would ask you to update it.
    Do you know whether you have 7.0 or 7.0.1 at this point?  You might be able to do a Properties function on Photoshp.exe and see that info.
    You could make an attempt to reset Photoshop's preferences to defaults.  Press and hold Control - Shift - Alt simultaneously immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set.  If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.
    Only other thing that comes to mind is to use Windows System Restore to restore back to a restore point where Photoshop was working, or restore from a backup (you do make backups I hope).
    If that fails, and you need to do a fresh install but no longer have the original disk and serial number I'm afraid you may be out of luck.  There's no place I know of from which to download a fresh full copy of Photoshop 7.0.

  • Enable Inputfield in the table column even though the column is empty

    Upto this the code is working fine as per the requirement .Now the thing is in that in column we r having an input field which should be enabled dynamically
    Regards
    Arun

    Hi Arun.,
    For enabling and disabiling any field on the view, there is only procedure.
    1. Make an attribute of type 'ABAP_BOOL' in the context.
    2. Bind the enable property of the UI element to this attribute.
    3. Enable or Disable the UI element in the code.
    So for your question you can follow :
    1. Make an attribute 'ENABLE' in the context node bound to the table. Type ABAP BOOL.
    2. Bind 'ENABLE' property of the desired input field with this attribute.
    3. In WDDOMODIFYVIEW check your condition and based on the condition use set_attribute method of if_wd_context_node to change the value to 00 - None or 01 - Enabled.
    I hope your question is answered.
