Workgroup Manager cannot edit any settings

Authenticating correctly even local but in Workgroup Manager I cannot edit any settings, has anyone ran into this I can't find any help for this issue.

We have this problem often.
It happens when we either change an IP address on a NIC, or when we unplug a network cable etc.
I'm not sure what the proper way to resolve the issue is, but this is what we do.
1. Log in a Root
2. Load Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions
3. Reboot the server (there has to be another option for this?)
4. Log in again and load the Workgroup Manager. Everything should be okay.
If anyone knows a more elegant way to handle this, please post the info as it doesn't seem that great having to do these steps everytime a slight configuration change is made.

  • Cannot edit any roles in CUP5.2 due to "Enter a valid Role Name" error

    We are running CUP 5.2.
    I am having a problem with our Roles after they were uploaded into CUP; I cannot make any changes to the Role Details because CUP returns an error stating that our Role Names are invalid.
    First I uploaded the roles (I continued to receive errors when trying to use the template, so I did them by uploading with the "Selected Roles" option). 
    Once they were uploaded, from the menu, I select:    Roles --> Search Role    and then I choose a role from the resulting list.  When the next screen appears (the "Role Details" screen), I added all of the respective details (Business Process, Sub-Process, Detailed Description, Role Approver, Functional Area, etc.).   When I pressed the SAVE button, I received the following error:
    Please correct the following errors:
    Please enter a valid "Role Name". Only Alpha-numeric, Space or Underscore characters are allowed
    So I realize what the problem is - the "Role Name" field is automatically populated with our security role name as it exists in our SAP system ... and because our security roles all begin with Z:, it does not follow the CUP naming convention. 
    I'd like to just update the "Role Name" field but when you are in the "Role Details" screen, the "Role Name" field cannot be edited.
    I saw the "Export" button and used that, in an attempt to edit the file to replace each occurence of Z: with Z_, and then upload it again.
    So I updated the file accordingly, and then did an upload, selecting the "Overwrite Existing Roles" box.
    It returned a successful message:
    Import Status: 133 successfully imported out of 133 records found
    Yet, when I go back to the list of roles, the roles still exist as Z: instead of Z_ so I still cannot edit any of the roles to add the required details ...  has anyone had a similar issue and know how to work around this?
    Thanks!

    Hello Alpesh,
    Thank you for replying!
    I had already tried to export the roles and replaced the Z: with Z_ before creating this message, but the upload attempts failed due to the explanation above.  But this time, I followed your (good) advice to delete the original Z: roles first, before uploading the corrected file.
    Sadly, even after I deleted the original Z: roles prior to uploading the corrected file, I am still having no luck ... when I uploaded the file, again it (falsely) reports that the import was successful:
        Import Status: 133 successfully imported out of 133 records found
    After seeing that message, I quickly checked the roles, and none of the roles had uploaded.  So now I have ZERO roles.
    Any further ideas?  I am thinking it may be something very small that is being overlooked ... perhaps certain buttons must be selected/not selected on the import screen?  Or could it be an issue with the file itself?
    When I do the import, I only select the button for "From File ..." and retrieve the file from my desktop via the Browse button.  I do not select any other button, nor do I make a selection from the System or Role Source boxes.  I have just selected that one button only ... I've tried it with and without checking the "Overwrite Existing Roles" box, but neither one works.
    The part that bugs me the most is that I receive what I perceive to be an inaccurate/bogus "successful" status each time I attempt the upload of the file.  At least if I had an error message, I might have something to work with to troubleshoot this.

    Is it possible you accidentally put the fields on the master page?

  • Cannot edit any pages - No Edit Page Button

    I have a blog through blogger, with my own domain, standupsteals.com. I have added a connection to it in CS5, but I have been unable to edit retrieved posts. The "Edit Pages" button doesn't even appear. I haven't tried to uninstall/reinstall yet. I did delete the connection, and recreate it, but still same problem. I cannot administer websites; it's grayed out, along with a lot of other options. I am the only user, so I shouldn't be locked out...Any ideas?
    I have tried to follow the simple directions...Go to my homepage; choose an entry. Once I choose an entry, Edit Pages button should appear, right? It's not happening for me...I get a quick message that says I am on a site I am not connected to. How can that be?

  • Cannot edit ARD settings like IP and password

    Since 2 weeks, if I start ARD, select the target computer (OSX 10.6.8), right-click this computer name you get a list of options including "Get Info". In the opening window there is an "Edit" button bottom right. After I edit "Address" or "Password" and click "Done" none of my changes are stored. Rather, the old values remain.
    Target client is  "ARD version: 3.5.3"
    I already deleted com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist both in /Library/Preferences and <user>/Library/Preferences with no avail. Any idea how to change my settings ?

    Make sure to do a "hard" reset, and then, connect your computer directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the LAN port of the AEBS...and then use the AirPort Admin Utility for making changes. You may have to try the hard reset several times.

  • Firefox freezes upon startup, cannot change any settings

    Since yesterday my Firefox will not open anymore.
    It started with a problem concerning all my browsers; I could open them, click inside them, but whenever I'd start typing anything, they would freeze. I'd get a 'Not Responding' message and I'd have to close the programmes. However, a restart fixed this for Chrome and IE. Firefox got worse after that; whenever I open it now it won't even load, I immediately get a 'Not Responding' message and I'm forced to close the programme. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
    All support articles here suggest clearing cache and all that, but I can't do anything because it just immediately freezes.

    There are two things you can try. But first, holding down the shift key
    starts Firefox in Safe Mode. This disables all your add-ons and some
    settings. If the browser works find in safe mode, then the problem could
    be an add-on. But first do this. Go to '''''[https://www.mozilla.org Mozilla.org]'''''
    to download the latest version of Firefox. DO NOT UPDATE. Get the full
    installer. After you download the installer, remove Firefox using the
    windows uninstaller. Then run the FF installer you just got. You will
    not lose much of anything. Now try FF normally. If you still have problems,
    then you will need to reset the browser. This will remove ALL ADD-ONS,
    and reset ALL SETTINGS to their default settings. If the problem is
    gone, then it was one of the add-ons. Re-install your add-ons only a
    few at a time. Close FF, and restart after each group. Good Luck.
    ===================================
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

  • Profile manager or workgroup manager

    Hi,
    I've been using OS X server for a while but stayed on 10.5. Today I have to upgrade and I'm a little confused between profile manager and workgroup manager.
    From my understanding they do both the same. Does Apple have the intention to stop WGM?
    Are there any recommendations on one or the other? We're in a school with about 300 students. My feeling is that WGM has more setting but may be Profile Manager is more reliable?
    Thanks for your help, Guy

    Profile Manager is definitely NOT more reliable, especially as the number of devices gets over 1,000 (speaking from experience and many Apple Cases later).
    Profile Manager is "the" replacement for Workgroup Manager, but at this point is still not "a" replacement for Workgroup Manager. Workgroup Manager can do more as far as setting preferences.
    For example, I can set all Google Chrome preferences for all computers in our district with Workgroup Manager. Can't be done with Profile Manager.
    I can set Printing Preferences for all our computers in the district (which printers get added, if they should duplex, if secured printing is desired, etc) using Workgroup Manager. Cannot do that with Profile Manager.
    Of course there are some things Profile Manager can do that Workgroup Manager cannot, but there are other utilities (Munki, DeployStudio), that can take care of that. Profile Manager is currently NOT a replacement for Workgroup Manager.

  • How do I change the color of my Google calendar? I can't edit any of my calendars.

    I just recently activated my iPhone 6 and was able to successfully transfer everything from my old iPhone to the new one.
    I used Google to sync my mail, contacts, and calendars, but for some reason, I cannot edit any calendars.  When I open the Calendar on my iPhone, I click on "Calendars" on the bottom.  Once I am here, I click on "Edit", but cannot click on any of my calendars. The names of my calendars show up, but are light gray colored.  I need to change the colors because for some reason, they are all dark colors and I cannot differentiate between them.
    Did I set up my calendar wrong?  Please help.

    I have the same issue on my iPad mini (running iOS 8.1). This problem only occurs with Google calendars. You can see in the attached screenshot that I don't have the problem with other calendars (see Microsoft live.com calendars).
    I have tried adding my Google account as Gmail, Exchange and CalDAV and I see this problem in every case.

  • Cannot edit track info in itunes

    I just downloaded iTunes v. 10.6.3.25
    I connected my iPhone to my computer and let iTunes see that it's there. If I try to go in under devices to my music library that is on the phone NOT in the library on the computer and try to right click, get info, I cannot edit any of the track information in there.
    Do I have to sync the phone to my iTunes and transfer all of the music to the computer to be able to edit the info? I have an older iPod and I can connect it, go into devices and edit in there with no issues, it just won't let me do it on the phone.
    Please help!!

    Personally, I would edit the information in your iTunes Library and then connect the iPhone and Sync the library with the iPhone.
    Since it's a Sync (synchronization) of iTunes with your iPhone, any new information on the phone (such as play counts) will be synced with iTunes while the updated track information in the library will be synced with the phone.

  • Problem: Can't edit any table values

    Hi,
    I'm using the latest version of Oracel SQL Developer in XP and cannot edit any table values (ie: the actual data). I've tried the reset of Accelerators as previously suggested to no effect. I know the user has access since TOAD and DreamCoder all allow edits.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers,
    Peter

    I was trying to edit by double-clicking the field, which opens an Edit box. And then I had believed I could type a new value in? This was behaviour I was used to in Toad so I appreciate I may be doing it incorrectly.
    Is this not the correct way to edit a value? (without using SQL).
    EDIT: I re-read you're reply and I see what you mean. Going to Table> MyTable > Data (tab) I can add rows and such. But this seems to mean I can't execute an SQL query to pullback specific data and then edit it in-place, in the grid?
    Cheers,
    Peter

  • Cannot edit pictures in contacts

    Trying to update some contacts and I cannot edit any of the pictures.

    I'm a little late to the game here, but I just got off the phone with a Senior Advisor and his statement was very clear:  The software on the Mac when using Contacts (or Address Book as it used to be aptly called) is different than the software on your iDevice for Contacts.  As such, and because of a limitation with the way Exchange handles the embedded photos, you can not make changes from your Mac. 
    He went on to say that he was unable to identify a work around or whether this would be addressed in the future.  I suggested there's likely a little finger pointing going on between MS and Mac as to who owns the problem.  Let's just say he 'didn't disagree'.
    So, for now, just get used to changing those photos on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch because that's what we're stuck with.  For now....
