Xorg strange issue

hello, this is sort of an oddball issue. i did a system update the other day and ever since my Xorg server is acting weird. whenever I start up my machine i am greeted with the sLiM login screen. I log in and then nothing. just a blank black screen. I switch over to tty1 and do sudo killall X. X then restarts itself somehow and i finally get my desktop. magic? maybe try to reconfigure xorg?
Also on an unrelated note. sometimes when i boot my system complains about edd? i have to add edd=off to the kernel line to get it to boot. any ideas?
here is the error.
thanks for the help

You probably have "respawn" in /etc/inittab next to x:5:. That makes slim restart every time a session ends, which may be after logging out or after killing X. That's why X restarts when you kill it.
Your problem seems to be that your DE has some problem that prevents from starting correctly the first time, but not the second. Perhaps there is some kind of race condition, but I'm lost at this point.

Strange issue with WEBI schedule Report

Hi All,
I have a strange issue with schedule WEBI reports, a schedule report runs for Hours , i reschedule it again by deleting the instance and the schedule report never got succeed even after running for hours.
Any idea???
regards

Hi Manoj,
1. Try to put some filters in the report and then run the report. if it takes less time, then probably your query is fetching very large data.
2. MDX query error may be the reason , this error come when a query runs endless, please try running the query 2-3 times, or when load on server is less.
Hope this will help,
Anamika.

Files transferred to external HD end up in trash - very strange issue

Hi,
I seem to be having a very strange issue, hopefully somebody can help or has seen this before.
Hardware: MacBook Air, Western Digital Passport external HD, 250gb, formatted NTFS.
Software: OSX 10.7 Lion, Paragon (allows me to write to an NTFS formatted HD)
Issue Summary: I copy something to the external HD; I empty trash; the file I copied is deleted from the external HD. It doesn't happen every time.
I do also seem to have a persistent folder in trash called "WD Sync Data" that won't go away unless I re-delete it as it's also in the root of the drive. Not sure if this is related somehow.
Recently I copied 3 video files inside a folder to the HD, then disconnected the HD. When I reconnected it a while later and noticed that inside the "WD Sync Data" folder in trash were the 3 files I'd copied. I then looked inside the same folder on the root of the drive and the files were there, instead of inside the folder that I'd copied to the drive, which had vanished. If I hadn't noticed and had emptied the trash, those files would've been deleted.
It's definitely happened more than once; last time I actually deleted the files from my computer after copying, then emptied trash, and they were gone from the external HD also.
I've only found one person who seemed to be experiencing a similar problem back in 2010. It sounds similar though it could've been user error: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-notebooks/188224-weird-external-hard-driv e-trash-problem-help-please.html
Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions?

Quick update: I ran a verify then a repair in Disk Utility as there were a couple of errors. Hopefully this has solved the issue, however it'd still be interesting to know if anyone's come across this before and what caused it?

Oracle Identity Manager 9.1.0.2 & WebLogic Strange Issue

Hello,
I am running OIM 9.1.0.2 (new installation) and WebLogic 10.3.3 in a clustered environment. I am having a strange issue where the resolution is eluding me.
This install is running on Windows 2008 x64 Standard and using the x64 JRockit Java.
What's happening is when I configure the managed server to run as a windows service, OIM isn't detected on the server. I can bring up xlWebApp but an unable to log into that or the Design Console. When launching the Diagnostic Dashboard it statest that OIM isn't installed.
If I stop the service and log into WebLogic and start the managed server from within the Admin Console in WebLogic, everything works just fine.
Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this and ultimately resolve this? The service correct startes the managed server as I can watch it start up in the admin console but when it starts that way, OIM isn't detected. Very odd.
Thanks,
Andrew

Oracle confirmed with us that it is certified for 10.3.3 though it may not be published yet.
At any rate I figured out the problem today. The script I used to create the service was missing the JAVA_OPTIONS section from the xlStartManagedServer.cmd file. Once I added that and re-created the service, all is well.
Thanks

Windows Vista and BPS0 - Strange issue

I just got a new HP Pavilion laptop with Vista and I have a strange issue:
All transactions work (SE80, RSA1, ...) except BPS0. The moment I enter TCode BPS0, I get completely logged out (all sessions). No error messages, no dumps. It just logs me out silently.
Is this happening only to me?
I use Windows Vista Home Premium edition and AMD Turion processor 64x2.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

Strange issue with RAM upgrade: It works but it doesn't! Please help.

Hello Everyone,
I have a very strange issue with my iMac since upgrading my RAM from 4 to 12 gig. When I first installed the new RAM it booted up and ran great. The next time I went to boot the iMac up it swtiched on but didn't get as far as the first white boot up screen. I tried turning it off and on a few times using the power on/off button but still no success. I decided to remove the RAM and reseat it. The computer then booted up again fine. Here's the problem though: when I went to switch my iMac on the next day it wouldn't boot up. Again, I took the RAM out and put it back in and the iMac booted up fine. I've checked the status of the RAM in the system profiler and it reports that everything is OK. So, I'm at a loss. Obviously, I don't want to go through this process every time I want to start up my Mac. Any ideas/solutions would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance.

I completely agree with you. It will be one of the 3 issues you outline. The machine was bought brand new and has never given me a problem. It is just the introduction of the new RAM that has started a problem. However, I did just risk a restart and it booted up fine. I don't know if a restart is any different to shutting down and then pressing the on/off button to start the computer. Maybe my last reseating has done the trick or maybe my thinking is flawed because restarting involves a different process to booting up by pressing the on/off button. I don't know.
In the part of the world I'm sitting in it's night time now so I will leave the diagnostics running and check the results in the morning. I hope the issue is now resolved anyway. This sort of thing takes me back to my dark PC days although in this case I know it's probably not the Mac's fault.
Thanks again. Very much appreciated.

Strange issue with rights of account, used by SSIS (Foreach Loop Container does not return file names without Admin rights on server)

Hello everyone.
Faced very strange issue with account, which is used to run SSIS package.
The specific package uses Foreach Loop Container to retrieve file names within the specified folder, and put them into Import file task.
The package is set up to run under specific service account. This service account is given all permissions (Full control) to the folder where source files reside.
So the issue is: SSIS package fails to execute this task (Foreach Loop Container and then Import), and shows that no files are found in the directory (although files ARE there).
Once we're adding the service account into local Administrators group on the SQL Server, it works! Removing - does not work again. We cannot leave the service account as SQL server's admin as it's prohibited by our IT policies, and is just a bad practice.
Any ideas, please?

Strange issue in custom Success/Failure captions

Hi,
I have a strange issue in my custom Success/Failure caption. If I use 'S' letter in my customized caption .bmp file, it is not showing properly in the captivate. Attached file is for your reference. I tried converting text into image in photoshop, still it shows the same thing. Any thoughts??
Thanks in Advance,
-Ajay

OK. That's what I thought.
So what I think is going on here is due to the way Captivate assembles text captions that can stretch to any size based on the component images. I think your corner image that contains the text is being stretched right at the point where the S character is located on the end of Congratulations. Captivate is achieving the resizable text caption by repeating the last few pixels of each background image.
If you want to test my theory, just make your Congratulations text slightly shorter (use a condensed font or make the font size smaller) and I think your issue will go away.

Strange issue in Report Builder

Hi All,
I am facing a strange issue in Report Builder.
I am having a report which is currently in production. when i am opening that report and just saving it without making any changes, then also the size of the report is reducing from 238 to 204 kb.
When i am executing this report in production then it is giving me the error "Invalid Body size"
Please hlep me or else have to ask God to save me.
Thanks

Hi Hussien,
I tried thart solution but it not worked. i put some debug statement in Before Parameter form, after Parameter form, before report triggers. When i am running that report i am getting the debug statement of Before and After Parameter triggers but it is failing somewhere in Before Report Trigger.
I removed everything from Before Report Trigger and still the result is same "Invalid Body Size".
Please Hussien give me a some pointer which stage is processed between After Parameter Form trigger and Before Report Trigger.
Thanks

Strange issue with external monitor, only working when external speakers plugged in (using Thunderbolt to VGA adaptor)

Hey – I am having a very strange issue with my external monitor; where it only works if my external speakers are plugged in and connected.
I am using a late 2011 Macbook pro, running Mavericks 10.9.4, along with an MBox 2 (USB Audio Interface), and two powered speakers (KRK Rokit 5). This setup has had no issues. I have just acquired an external monitor (Benq T2200HD), which I am using with a thunderbolt to VGA adaptor (a cheap Chinese knockoff adaptor).
To start - I plugged the monitor in with the thunderbolt adaptor, and it powers up and works fine. However, there is a nasty buzz coming from the speakers. I did some research and it looks like a simple ground loop issue. I did a bit of troubleshooting, and this is where things get weird.
What I found is - If I unplug the MBox, the monitor loses signal from the computer (displaying ‘No Signal Detected!’). Further, if I keep the MBox plugged in, however unplug both the cables from the MBox to the speakers, the monitor loses signal. It doesn’t matter if the speakers are turned off, however they need to be plugged in (or the monitor loses signal). Weirder still, I can unplug the MBox, however the monitor will work if I plug in the speakers through my macs headphone jack.
Simply put, the monitor only works if there is a direct connection between the computer, the speakers, and the power source. What is going on here? Is the monitor grounding through the computer port, to the speakers (I don’t know how this works, is this possible?). Could it somehow be the cheap VGA adaptor I am using?
Some other information:
- Everything is plugged into the same multi-box for power. I have tried plugging things into separate sources, and the result is the same.
- If I unplug the thunderbolt adaptor, then the speaker noise disappears straight away.
- The ground noise doesn’t appear in my headphones, which are plugged into the MBox.
Any information would be great – am I missing something here, or is this genuinely weird?

Well, I went back into Best Buy to test on 3 other laptops (2 Asus, and their floor model for this Sony). It seems to be doing the same problem so at least I was able to rule out broken hardware issue on my particular laptop.
Here's what I did to test:
Since I couldn't really install Adobe Premiere on their machines, I used the DVIO software (http://www.carr-engineering.com/dvio.htm) and a 5 min clip I captured. I transferred onto their machines, hooked up my Sony D8, and attempted to play the video. It would play for 15 seconds and then stop and jitter with a loud noise (like it does on my laptop). I even tried changing each machine's firewire driver to the legacy one and same results. I pulled a brand new 4 pin to 4 pin firewire cable off their shelf and still the same problem.
I think I've nailed it down to Win7x64 bit Home Edition not playing nice with Firewire driver. Very annoying. I can't find any concrete evidence of this from other users on any of the forums that have my particular problem, but from my own testing, it's all I can conclude.
I have 2 other things I can try:
1. Opening the laptop and looking at the firewire to maybe find appropriate driver (ugh, I don't want to have to open this thing up).
2. Upgrading to Win7x64bit Pro and possibly testing with XP on the new MS Virtual PC (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/). I can't do it with my Home edition apparantly.

I am having strange issue with my apple tv...i set up pictures to scroll through to the tv using home sharing. Now album covers are interspersed with my pictures. I have been using apple tv for a while and never had this happen before

Are you watching this content though iCloud or though from iTunes on your local computer? If it is from iCloud have you tried downloading the content to iTunes and watching it on ATV from that source to see if it still happens? This is geerally a much more reliable way to view the content. Easer to fast forward and rewind too.
- I have a stable internet connection
Clearlly you don't
>(Ive tested on other devices)
Which does not tell you anything about the specific connnection from ATV to iCloud.
>I am able to stream Netflix problem free from my AppleTV without so much as a hicup
Again which does not tell you anything about the specific connnection from ATV to iCloud.
>- I am able to download the episodes to my phone, ipad, and computer without any issues
Again which does not tell you anything about the specific connnection from ATV to iCloud. It does remove your ISP throattly traffice as a possible cause though. So that is good.
Have you checked your wireless rounter? Tried doing the factory restor on it? Upgrading it's firmware? Is it and or ATV getting extreamly hot when this problme happens?

Huawei E220 strange issue running 10.6.2

Hi, I'm testing the Huawei E220 with a brand new Macbook Air running 10.6.2.
My provider is Vodafone IT.
I have a very strange Issue:
If I start the connection the Macbook Air suddenly shuts down a few seconds after the connection has been established. If I leave the modem connected to the usb port without activating a connection nothing happens.
Has anyone had this same problem??
This mac works perfectly with any other HSPDA usb modem.
Vodafone posted a new software for mac (Vodafone Mobile Broadband 3.04.10.00). This link can be useful (not only for Italy) because it is constantly updated:
http://www.business.vodafone.com/site/bus/public/enuk/support/10productsupport/laptop_connectivity/40_software/software/10_latest/pmac.jsp

my friends 13" mbp is also having trackpad problems. I plugged in an old usb trackball and that seems to to at least get me so I can run a hardware test off the applications dvd.

A very very strange issue on BlazeDS Deserializing

Hi all,
I run into a very very strange issue on BlazeDS Deserializing. Is there any hint or idea? Thanks a lot!
Scenario 1:
Both the browser(firefox or IE) and the midtier (BlazeDS ,java) are on the same machine.
Actual result:
Everything works fine. All the properties in the Flex Object could be mapped to the Java Class
Scenario 2:
The browser(firefox or IE) and the midtier (BlazeDS ,java) are on the different machine.
Actual result:
Sometimes it works fine.
And most of the time it does not work fine. Only the data in List is mapped correctly. All the values of simple data type such as int are mapped to 0 .
Let me simplify the problem.
The objects of Class B is always stored in the ArrayCollection assocItems of Class A
Flex side:
public class A {
public var id: int;
public var name: String;
public var assocItems: ArrayCollection=new ArrayCollection();
public class B {
public var id: int;
public var assocItems : ArrayCollection=new ArrayCollection();
The id , name in Flex Class A and assocItems in Class B could be deserialize to correct value . But the id of Class B is always mapped to 0. This is not correct.
The log level of BlazeDS is configured to Debug. From the log I can see that each value is passed from Flex side to Java server side correctly.
[BlazeDS][INFO] Channel endpoint my-amf received request.
[BlazeDS][DEBUG] Deserializing AMF/HTTP request
Version: 3
(Message #0 targetURI=null, responseURI=/18)
(Array #0)
[0] = (Typed Object #0 'flex.messaging.messages.RemotingMessage')
However, the Java object does not get the correct value of B.id.
In conclusion,
1. It’s an issue with only default types
2. It does not occur every time
3. It does not occur when the browser(firefox or IE) and the midtier (BlazeDS ,java) are on the same machine
Have you ever run into the similar problems? And what’s your solution?

I checked, when I hard-code the constant in linq, the generated sql is like this:
SELECT "Extent1"."AA" AS "AA"
FROM (SELECT "TBL"."AA" AS "AA"
FROM "USERNAME"."TBL" "TBL") "Extent1"
WHERE ('1062303212007000121' = "Extent1"."AA")
if I pass a variable to the query with same value, the sql is like this:
SELECT "Extent1"."AA" AS "AA"
FROM (SELECT "TBL"."AA" AS "AA"
FROM "USERNAME"."TBL" "TBL") "Extent1"
WHERE ("Extent1"."AA" = '1062303212007000121' /* @p__linq__0 */) (@p__linq__0 is passed as parameter)
The only difference is a paramter. I can't figure out why there is such a impact on performance.

Strange issue with POF: byte array with the value 94

This is a somewhat strange issue we’ve managed to reduce to this test case. We’ve also seen similar issues with chars and shorts as well. It’s only a problem if the byte value inside the byte array is equal to 94! A value of 93, 95, etc, seems to be ok.
Given the below class, the byte values both in the array and the single byte value are wrong when deserializing. The value inside the byte array isn’t what we put in (get [75] instead of [94]) and the single byte value is null (not 114).
Pof object code:
package com.test;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Arrays;
import com.tangosol.io.pof.PofReader;
import com.tangosol.io.pof.PofWriter;
import com.tangosol.io.pof.PortableObject;
public class PofObject1 implements PortableObject {
     private byte[] byteArray;
     private byte byteValue;
     public void setValues() {
          byteArray = new byte[] {94};
          byteValue = 114;
     @Override
     public void readExternal(PofReader reader) throws IOException {
          Object byteArray = reader.readObjectArray(0, null);
          Object byteValue = reader.readObject(1);
          System.out.println(Arrays.toString((Object[])byteArray));
          System.out.println(byteValue);
          if (byteValue == null) throw new IOException("byteValue is null!");
     @Override
     public void writeExternal(PofWriter writer) throws IOException {
          writer.writeObject(0, byteArray);
          writer.writeObject(1, byteValue);
Using writer.writeObjectArray(0, byteArray); instead of writer.writeObject(0, byteArray); doesn't help. In this case byteArray would be of type Object[] (as accessed through reflection).
This is simply put in to a distributed cache and then fetched back. No EPs, listeners or stuff like that involved:
     public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
          NamedCache cache = CacheFactory.getCache("my-cache");
          PofObject1 o = new PofObject1();
          o.setValues();
          cache.put("key1", o);
          cache.get("key1");
Only tried it with Coherecne 3.7.1.3.

Hi,
POF uses certain byte values as an optimization to represent well known values of certain Object types - e.g. boolean True and False, some very small numbers, null etc... When you do read/write Object instead of using the correct method I suspect POF gets confused over the type and value that the field should be.
There are a number of cases where POF does not know what the type is - Numbers would be one of these, for example if I stored a long of value 10 on deserialization POF would not know if that was an int, long double etc... so you have to use the correct method to get it back. Collections are another - If you serialize a Set all POF knows is that you have serialized some sort of Collection so unless you are specific when deserializing you will get back a List.
