Windows Server 2003 and CS3

I'm looking to purchase either Photoshop CS3 or the Creative Suite CS3, but the only operating system I have available is an in-house development server running Windows Server 2003.
I used to run Photoshop 5.5 on Windows Server 2003 without an issue, I wanted to make sure version CS3 will also run on this OS. I know the system requirements say otherwise, but as I said I had it installed on a server OS before with out any issues.
Thanks.

Search here and the Creative Suite forum for Windows 2003. It's been
discussed.
You'll have to hack the installer and then you'll be in completely
unsupported territory.

  • Crystal 8 Web Component Server ond Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6

    I am trying to get Crystal 8 Web Component and Page Server to run on Windows 2003 Server with IIS 6. I have done the following:
    Added the .cri and .rpt ISAPI extension mappings
    Have Cache ISAPI extentions selected
    Deselected "verify that file exists"
    Aded the .cri and .rpt MIME types
    Added wcsinsapi.dll as a IIS 6.0 extension
    The above resolved all HTTP 40x.x errors but when trying to access a report from IE I receive the following error:
    Error: Could not connect to the Web Component Server.
    The page server and web component server services are running and I do see the listen ports (6401, 6403) active.
    I know this is old software but it works quite well under a Windows 2000 Server and other web postings indicate that it is possible to run Crystal 8 under WS2003 and IIS 6.
    Does any one know of a white paper/support document that details how to run Crystal 8 under Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6?
    Has any one done this successfully?
    Any tips as to cause of the "Could Not Connect" problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Well as it turns out it looks like it was just this server.
    We tried everything, and I added those user accounts to full
    permission for the Coldfusion folders and we just could not get it
    to work. We tried it on another couple servers running 2003, and it
    installed perfectly right out of the box with no other permissions
    needed. And those servers were all running default configs with no
    other permissions done.
    We still have no idea what was the problem, but at least for
    now it seems to be this server. But I will tell you what, that II6
    stuff seems to be a bit of a pain, we had major problems installing
    new version of PHP with it too. Oh well, good luck to you
    too!

  • Out of memory using Windows Server 2003 and Oracle 9.2.0.3

    Hi,
    I just installed both Windows Server 2003 and Oracle 9.2.0.3. The server I am using has 4 gigabytes of memory installed, and windows shows that to be the actual physical memory on the server. The paging file is 8 gigabytes for a total of 12 gigabytes of virtual memory.
    Using the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, I create a new database using default values. After verifying the installation worked OK (database started, queries ran), I attempted to change some of the memory parameters and was able to start the database using about 1.4 gigabytes of total SGA, with the O/S using about .3 gigabytes for a total of 1.7 gigabytes. I then attempted to change the buffer cache + 1 gigabyte for a total of 2 gigabytes. Now the database will not start and I get an out of memory error ora-27102 with an additional O/S memory error of "O/S Error: (OS 8) Not enough storage is available to process this command".
    So, I have two problems:
    1) With 4 gigabytes installed, and the O/S using only about 300 megabytes, why isn't Oracle able to take advantage of the memory on this machine past the 1.7 gigabytes (as reported by Windows task manager).
    2) How do I change the spfile memory parameters so the database will start using spfile? I can start the database pointing to a pfile with lesser memory parameters, but I don't know how to effect change on the spfile, since I cannot start with the spfile.
    Both these technologies (9.2.0.3 and Server 2003) are new to me, so any insight would be appreciated!
    HERE ARE THE SPFILE PARAMETERS THAT WORKED:
    SGA (M)
    Shared Pool=104
    Buffer Cache=960 ***
    Large Pool=0
    Java Pool=64
    Total SGA=1128
    SGA Max Size=1321
    Aggregate PGA Target=1500
    Current PGA Allocated=22868KB
    WINDOWS MEMORY INFO FROM TASK MANAGER SHOW:
    PF Usage=1.66GB
    Physical Memory (K)

    Commit Charge (K)
    Total=1748184
    Limit=12288628
    Peak=1925276
    *** When I change this to 2048 the database did not start.
    Thank you.

    CREATE SPFILE
    Purpose
    Use the CREATE SPFILE statement to create a server parameter file from a client-side initialization parameter file. Server parameter files are binary files that exist only on the server and are called from client locations to start up the database.
    Server parameter files let you make persistent changes to individual parameters. When you use a server parameter file, you can specify in an ALTER SYSTEM SET parameter statement that the new parameter value should be persistent. This means that the new value applies not only in the current instance, but also to any instances that are started up subsequently. Traditional client-side parameter files do not let you make persistent changes to parameter values. Because they are located on the server, these files allow for automatic database tuning by Oracle and for backup by Recovery Manager (RMAN).
    To use a server parameter file when starting up the database, you must create it from a traditional text initialization parameter file using the CREATE SPFILE statement.
    All instances in an Real Application Clusters environment must use the same server parameter file. However, when otherwise permitted, individual instances can have different settings of the same parameter within this one file. Instance-specific parameter definitions are specified as SID.parameter = value, where SID is the instance identifier.
    The method of starting up the database with a server parameter file depends on whether you create a default or nondefault server parameter file. Please refer to "Creating a Server Parameter File: Examples" for examples of how to use server parameter files.
    See Also:
    CREATE PFILE for information on creating a regular text parameter file from a binary server parameter file
    Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information on pre-Oracle9i initialization parameter files and Oracle9i server parameter files
    Oracle9i Real Application Clusters Administration for information on using server parameter files in a Real Application Clusters environment
    Prerequisites
    You must have the SYSDBA or the SYSOPER system privilege to execute this statement. You can execute this statement before or after instance startup. However, if you have already started an instance using spfile_name, you cannot specify the same spfile_name in this statement.
    Syntax
    create_spfile::=
    Text description of create_spfile
    Semantics
    spfile_name
    This clause lets you specify a name for the server parameter file you are creating.
    If you do not specify spfile_name, Oracle uses the platform-specific default server parameter filename. If spfile_name already exists on the server, this statement will overwrite it. When using a default server parameter file, you start up the database without referring to the file by name.
    If you do specify spfile_name, you are creating a nondefault server parameter file. In this case, to start up the database, you must first create a single-line traditional parameter file that points to the server parameter file, and then name the single-line file in your STARTUP command.
    See Also:
    "Creating a Server Parameter File: Examples" for information on starting up the database with default and nondefault server parameter files
    Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for Windows (or other appropriate operating system specific documentation) for default parameter file names
    pfile_name
    Specify the traditional initialization parameter file from which you want to create a server parameter file.
    If you specify pfile_name, the parameter file must reside on the server. If it does not reside in the default directory for parameter files on your operating system, you must specify the full path.
    If you do not specify pfile_name, Oracle looks in the default directory for parameter files on your operating system for the default parameter filename, and uses that file. If that file does not exist in the expected directory, Oracle returns an error.
    Note:
    In a Real Application Clusters environment, you must first combine all instance parameter files into one file before specifying it in this statement to create a server parameter file. For information on accomplishing this step, see Oracle9i Real Application Clusters Setup and Configuration.
    Examples
    Creating a Server Parameter File: Examples
    The following example creates a default server parameter file from a client initialization parameter file named t_init1.ora:
    CREATE SPFILE
    FROM PFILE = '$ORACLE_HOME/work/t_init1.ora';
    Note:
    Typically you will need to specify the full path and filename for parameter files on your operating system. Please refer to your Oracle operating system documentation for path information.
    When you create a default server parameter file, you subsequently start up the database using that server parameter file by using the SQL*Plus command STARTUP without the PFILE parameter, as follows:
    STARTUP
    The following example creates a nondefault server parameter file s_params.ora from a client initialization file named t_init1.ora:
    CREATE SPFILE = 's_params.ora'
    FROM PFILE = '$ORACLE_HOME/work/t_init1.ora';
    When you create a nondefault server parameter file, you subsequently start up the database by first creating a traditional parameter file containing the following single line:
    spfile = 's_params.ora'
    The name of this parameter file must comply with the naming conventions of your operating system. You then use the single-line parameter file in the STARTUP command. The following example shows how to start up the database, assuming that the single-line parameter file is named new_param.ora:
    STARTUP PFILE=new_param.ora

  • /3 Gb switch, Windows Server 2003 and no imagecfg.exe!

    The Imagecfg tool is not provided in the support toolkit for Windows Server 2003. How do I then implement the /3 Gb switch for oracle.exe and tnslsnr.exe as has been recommended in Metalink notes 116076.1 and 46001.1?
    Also does this not appear a bit confusing:
    Note 1036312.6 states:
    On Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition 4.0, Microsoft provides the 4GT (4GB
    RAM Tuning) support so an application can utilize up to 3GB virtual memory
    instead of the 2GB limit as it used to be.
    The Windows NT service pack 3 provides the same feature but is not officially
    claimed in the SP3 readme.txt.
    The Oracle 8.0.3 release and higher have already been enabled to take
    advantage of the new feature.
    However a more recently updated note (46001.1) states:
    d) Configuring the Oracle process to make allocations greater than 2GB
    The Oracle database supports the 4GT tuning feature of Windows NT Server,
    Enterprise Edition from release 7.3 onwards, allowing it to access up to 3GB
    of virtual address space per instance. It may be the case that certain
    releases / patch sets do not have the 4GT flag set even though the release
    does support the feature. To check the executable has been correctly enabled
    run :
    imagecfg oracle.exe
    oracle.exe contains the following configuration information:
    Subsystem Version of 4.0
    Image can handle large (>2GB) addresses
    Stack Reserve Size: 0x100000
    Stack Commit Size: 0x1000
    For executables that do not have the flag set, run :
    imagecfg -l oracle.exe
    The above settings will only take affect if the boot.ini has been set up as
    described in Note 46053.1.
    So, do we really require to run the imagecfg utility (which is no longer provided in 2003 server support tool package) for versions higher than 8.1.7? Which tool should I then use instead of imagecfg for Windows Server 2003?

    I think one of the reasons behind those Notes is that in older releases support for the feature existed and despite 7.3.4 or 8.0.3 and onwards had the capabilities, some patch sets or patches "forgot" this. The first Note you references says
    "There may be a case where you are running 8.0.4.3.7 on NT and the 3gig address issue required the use of imagecfg to access the larger address space. One major reason might be the fact that patch sets may have brought in an executeable without the flag being set."
    Sometimes it can be really hard to get notes on metalink to add upp, maybe mostly because there is so much info to maintain and cope with...
    I dont think you should worry much about it. In any case, the developer/vendor who controls the code need to make sure the program is in reality large address aware and set flags accordingly.
    If you want to check, to report something back to Oracle Support, there is dumpbin.exe to verify image header available in Visual Studio. Dont know of a public alternative.

    a string value is being read checkLogin() when its expecting

    maybe its a typo or something in your code.
    for example you may have place:
    var.loginsuccess == "loginsuccess";
    in which it should be:
    var == "loginsuccess";

  • Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Assessment and Planning tool (MAP)

    Preparing for the end of support for Windows Server 2003 (4/2015) and the need to migrate from Windows Server 2003, I have been directed on several sites run the Microsoft Assessment
    and Planning tool (MAP) to aid in identifying any software and hardware issues.   Apparently this tool has been recently updated (7/2014) and cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 system.  As it requires .NET Framework 4.5 to run.  Unfortunately,
    .NET Framework 4.5 cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 as it only supports .NET 4.0.x versions.  All older version links to the MAP tool have been updated to link directly to version 9.1.  Where can I get a MAP tool version that will run
    on Windows Server 2003?  

    Hi,
    Yes, i would agree with arnavsharma
    After the environment scan has been completed in Windows Server 2008r2 or another supported OS, MAP looks at computers running earlier versions of Windows.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee677580.aspx
    Meanwhile, for the MAP related issue, you'd better ask in MAP forums:

  • Windows Server 2003 and problem with SSL connection (TLS)

    Hi,
    We are forcing a problem with SLL/TLS connection on a machine Windows Server 2003 SP2.
    We spent hours trying to solve it without any result. 
    SYMPTOMS
    No SSL connection can be established in any application since last year, e.g.:
    we cannot do any windows update, because there is a time verification over SSL on the windows update website (there is an error that the time is incorrect while it is up-to-date)
    we cannot open any website in Internet Explorer over https
    when we try to connect to the SQL Server (database SQL 2008 hosted on the same server) with Management Studio it fails with an error: "A connection
    was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake.(provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - Could not
    contact LSA)(Microsoft SQL Server)"
    in a custom applications which sends requests over https we receive an error: "Could not establish trust relationship for SSL/TLS secure channel"
    Everything seems to point at some SSL problem somewhere deep inside Windows.
    We installed several patches, but without any result. 
    Can anybody help?
    Regards,
    Dawid

    Hi, thanks for answers,
    - In IE both SSL2.0 and TLS1.0 are checked. We tried to disable TLS1.0 - with no results. 
    - In  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\Schannel both SSL2.0
    and TLS1.0 are enabled. We also tried to dislable TLS1.0 on the Client side - with no resuts. 
    - In
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL EventLogging is set to 3, so it should log warnings
    and errors. But we cannot find any related logs in EventLog
    Unfortunately we are still in the same place.

  • Problems with the shared files of Windows Server 2003 and Mac

    I have some Mac computers in the domain of my LAN Network, and when I share a folder in Windows Server 2003 sometimes the Mac can not see and sometimes yes, but lasts a long time so that they can view folders. I have installed the protocol Apple Talk on the server and File Server and in the Domain Server.
    The folders when users have no security users or groups are immediately with a connection AFP, but if they have not already created security can be displayed with a connection AFP, but if you can visualize a connection with SMB, but I can not work with Quark 6.0 Pro files.

    These are installed on windows 2003 with mac print services running. I need to know what option i should use in osx when installing these network printers on these macs. When i go to printers folder, i chose windows printing then it prompts for the ppd file. I found it for the ir5020 but not the ir3100. I really need to test the hp laserjets in osx too. Ill post up when i test those. But that one canon (ir3100) is bothering me. They are roughly the same age and the drivers on the site don't seem to work.

  • Mapping issues with Server 2003 and windows 8.1 machine

    We are running Windows Server 2003 and trying to map network drives through a GPO script on a Windows 8.1 machine.  The drives don't get mapped and if they do, it takes them 10minutes or more to show up.  The Folder Redirection is not working
    as well.  Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    This is because
    by default, on client computers, Group
    Policy processing is not synchronous, that is client computers typically do
    not wait for the network for GPO settings to be fully initialized at startup and logon. 
    Solution:
    Enable the
    policy setting Always
    wait for the network at computer startup and logon to set the client computers wait
    for the network for GPO settings to be fully initialized during computer startup and user logon.
    Steps to enable the Policy Setting
    - Open Group Policy Management Console (start -> Run -> Type GPMC.MSC).
    - Edit the required GPO and navigate to
    Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Logon and enable the option Always
    wait for the network at computer startup and logon

  • Which VMware support Windows 7 as Host and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS

    Folks,
    Hello. I need to install PeopleSoft PIA in Windows Server 2003.
    Because my laptop is preinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium Editon and cannot dual boot multiple Operating systems. I have to install VMware in Host Windows 7 and then install Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS for PIA.
    I have installed VMware Server 2.0.2 into Host Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS. Everything works fine for a while. But VMware Server Home Page https://mylaptop:8333/ui cannot display any more.
    I have found that Windows 7 is not a supported Host Operating System for VMware Server 2 and strange thing might happen anytime. I found that "VMware Player 3" is fully supported Windows 7 as Host OS but is not supported Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS.
    Does any folks know which VMware product support Windows 7 as Host OS and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS ?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Based on my research, I would like to suggest the following:
    1.   
    Ensure the printer is compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 and the drivers are up-to-date.
    2.   
    Try the following method:
    Printers that use ports that do not begin with COM, LPT,
    or USB are not redirected in a remote desktop or a terminal services session
    Hope this helps. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Nicholas Li - MSFT
    That doesn't apply to Windows 7 Machines. I'm having the same problem as Acer_, I have a RDP Session from a Windows 7 Machine to a Windows XP machine and the local printer was available a few days ago but isn't anymore. The drivers are installed on both PC's
    and are compatible with Windows 7.
