XP workstation services fail after 4.90 SP2 client imports

Testing for a migration from ZFD 3.2 to ZDM 6.5 on the workstation with the new Novell
Client 4.90 SP2.
Our core XP SP1 ghost image (not OEM) restores to a Compaq D530 without issue and has
Novell Client 4.83 SP2 with the ZFD 3.2 SP2 components (WM, RM and NAL NT services)
installed on it. Allow sysprep and the post-driver and services to run and install.
Reboot.
Login to eDirectory and install Novell Client 4.90 SP2 with NetIdentity 1.2.2 and ZFD 3.2
SP3 components (WM and RM, ZFD server is still ZFD 3.2 SP2). Reboot. Workstation is
quick and stable, logs in fine with 4.90 SP2.
Reboot again. Workstation initially appears to come up quickly then right around the time
NWGINA pops up services start to drag/fail and it'll take several minutes to get to the
point to actually enter my username and password. The enhanced GINA in SP2 detects
networking has failed and checks Workstation Only automatically. Eventually get in
Workstation Only. While the Explorer shell is responsive and appears stable, most
services have failed or are hung in the process of starting.
Stripping a box in this state of the most of its apps will bring it back close to its
original speed, but you're left with networking and in particular the TCP/IP Protocol
Driver "corrupt". As repair is not an option, I'm not aware of a way to remove and/or
reinstall TCP/IP.
I've tried Option^Explicit Software's WinSock XP Fix with no success.
Breaking down our ACU install of 4.90 SP2 into parts and testing points back to the
reinstall of Workstation Manager as the initiator.
Back-revving wm.exe, wmcchlpr.dll and wmpm.dll in the 4.90 SP2 install to the 4.83 SP2
(ZFD 3.2 SP2) level does not resolve.
I have a feeling that is has something to do with after the WM components registering with
the workstation and certain policies associating and coming down. But only three are
available at "Scheduler Service Startup". NAL Workstation Association Agent, NT Client
Configuration and Windows Group Policy. The Group policy is quite small and doesn't
affect system-level stuff.
Haven't yet tried toggling them off and see what affect disabling them has.
Aside from opening a service request, any idea or anywhere else I should be looking or
testing?
Ironically, I have the 4.90 SP2 client working without issue in this setup using HP's OEM
image for the D530.

A combination of recreating the ZENworks Group Policies using a Windows 2000 box for
reasons described in the previous posted TID and restoring wmgrppol.dll back to the build
shipped in 4.90 SP2 (3/4/2004) prevents the issue from reocurring.
I originally back-revved wmgrppol.dll to a test build (8/7/2002) Novell sent me prior to
4.83 SP2 to work around an issue where local policies are being removed after restarting a
workstation...
Local Group Policies are removed after updating to client updates in ZfD32SP1Client.exe
http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/se...?/10079392.htm
Looks like I can't have my Group Policies and ZENworks working too. That is until I move
to 6.5. I hope.

OBIEE Start/Stop Services failed(After LDAP Configuration)

Hi ,
We made some changes(that is we have added new OID
and configured the new OID based upon the Oracle BI security guide which is in Oracle Site
) to the LDAP configuration in OBIEE web console and it prompted for a restart of the OBIEE services . when we tried restarting the services we are not able to stop all the services . Please find the attached log files .

"JPS-02597: You configured a custom Authentication Provider or WLS generic LDAPAuthenticator, which the libOvd can not recognize. Supply the idstore.type property in jps-config.xml file, or use a specific WLS LDAP Authentication provider that matches your LDAP server instead of a generic one."
Looks like the config you entered was a tad off. Any chance you can roll back by restoring the original files from before the change?
$FMWH/user_projects/domains/yourdomain/config/config.xml
$FMWH/user_projects/domains/yourdomain/config/fmwconfig/jps-config.xml
In the config.xml, inside the <realm> tag yo ushould find your authenticaiton providers and there's two important things for your new one to check:
1.) xsi-type="wls:..." <-- This should be your OID type rather than a generic (or wrong) one
2.) If you're not 100% sure about the config or don't want to immediately shut out native WLS users or want to retain them (both OID and WLS LDAP considered valid), then PLEASE make sure that you run your new authenticator with <sec:control-flag>SUFFICIENT</sec:control-flag> and don't make it REQUIRED since otherwise you won't be able to bring anything up anymore if a single parameter in the authenticator config is off...
Also, check out what Tony wrote together a while back: http://www.peakindicators.com/index.php/knowledge-base/115-oracle-bi-11g-security-troubleshooting
Update:
Should have read the error message more carefully...looks like you actually just slipped by one line in the authenticator config and chose "OracleVirtualDirectory" instead of "OracleInternetDirectory" since it tries to use the libOvd rather than the OID one.

Empsecformat RestFul service fail after update

Hello everybody when I test "empsecformat" sample web service at the first time, it operates OK, but just pressing "Apply Changes" button, web service fail and returns "Error during evaluation of resource template" message and do not runs anymore.
Then I have to "Reset Sample Data" to recover initial situation
I Have

I am running Oracle XE 10 over Linux
Thanks

Read the server logs for the current error, concentrating on Apache. That'll usually tell you what isn't working.
Check the Apache configuration file syntax:
apachectl configtest
Verify DNS with the command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
If you're on a NAT'd network and running local DNS services, stay out of .local and .arpa with the domain you're using, and preferably use a registered domain. If you're NAT'd, don't try to use ISP or Google or other off-network DNS servers, as those do not provide translations for the private-IP-block NAT'd IP addresses you're using.
As for a reset, there's a server setup done file (I don't recall the filename of that off-hand), but I've found removing that file does not reset the entire environment completely and correctly — my usual preferred approach is to set up the new 10.6 server environment, get DNS configured and operating first and only then enable the other necessary services (proper DNS is vital to a stable environment, and incorrect DNS is the trigger for more than a few weird problems with OS X Server), and then migrate over the web files from a backup. That's the most effort, but generates the "cleanest" environment.
Less preferred, but can work: using an external backup of the old OS X Server environment and migrating that data over during the installation of 10.6 is another option, but that can sometimes migrate in the old problems.

Sap service fails after switching to the second node in HA system.

Hello all,
We have installed the HA mscs cluster installation for ECC6.0(my SAP erp 2005) system.The ASCS+SCS isntance and the DB instance are the failover resources.
When the ASCS+SCS(sap cluster group) fail over to the next node the service sap_<sid>_00 (ascs) and sap_<sid>_01(scs) fails to start automatically and we have to manually start the instance from the services console by giving the sapservice<sid> password to start the services.
when we try to start the service without giving the password then the system gives a message unable to start due to logon failure and after giving the password it shows that the user has been been granted to logon as a service user.
Pl help resolve this issue.
thx

A change to the zpool_import() management of the zpool.cache file, as delivered by Solaris 10 kernel patches 137137-09 (for SPARC) or 137138-09 (for x86), might cause systems that have their shared ZFS (zfs(1M)) storage pools under the control of HAStoragePlus to be simultaneously imported on multiple cluster nodes. Importing a ZFS storage pool on multiple cluster nodes will result in pool corruption, which might cause data integrity issues or cause a cluster node to panic.
To avoid this problem, install Solaris 10 patch 139579-02 (for SPARC) or 139580-02 (for x86) immediately after you install 137137-09 or 137138-09 but before you reboot the cluster nodes.
Alternatively, only on the Solaris 10 5/08 OS, remove the affected patch before any ZFS pools are simultaneously imported to multiple cluster nodes. You cannot remove patch 137137-09 or 137138-09 from the Solaris 10 10/08 OS, because these patches are preinstalled on that release.

Cannot get mail, connection to the service failed after iOS7

After upgrading to iOS7, I am getting repeated "Cannot Get Mail: The connection to the server failed." message everytime I open the email. I click OK and after it goes away, I do get email later. But it happens everytime now. Reset the iPad but still happening. Do I have to hard reset the darn thing? Any ideas?

Don't hard reset.
Instead, go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars and the to Accounts. Note the settings for your iPad, then delete the account - and then reenter the information. Make sure it's 100% correct.
Many, many people - myself included - had to reenter email settings after the iOS7 update.

MDM Server Window Service failed after adding server password

After adding MDM server password, MDM server window service can't start up. We have to use clix command to start the server. Is there anyway to fix window service problem?

Hi Jean,
From the version number it sounds like you're using version 5.5 SP4, right? The Console application was significantly changed in SP5 and you would no longer see the locked server icon... If you unmount the server from the Console, and re-mount it, isn't there an option on the context menu for the tree (right-click on the server node) to provide the password? Did you try "Connect to Server" or "Start Server" on this context menu?
Thanks... I don't know if I can help you with your problem, but I will try!

SUP failed over manually, voice service failed after FAILOVER, started accessing old voice vlan which was removed from config

Hey guys,
I am pretty sure, my subject is kinda confusing. Sorry about that. Here is what happened.
1. 4510r with Supervisor V 1000BaseX, switched over to standby Sup, then reseated Active SUP, once reseat complete, switched again to get the reseated SUP up and running as Active SUP.
2. a simple maintenance which was supposed to cause no outage and it did not cause any outage as well.
3. however, what i did not notice was, even though the voice vlan was configured to access 2353, they were accessing vlan 453.
4. the change was made 2 weeks prior to this maintenance where voice vlans were previously accessing 453 and they were all changed to access 2353. configs were saved.
5. however, after the maintenance, the running config showed that they were acessing 2353 but when checking the mac address on the interface, it was seen accessing 453.
6. the fix was to remove the config and re add it , that fixed it.
Has anyone else experienced the issue ? What really happened there ?

DPM 2012 R2 long backup to tape job randomly fail after installing SCCM 2012 Client

Hello,
I'm managing a two nodes 2012 R2 file server cluster that contains a 16To CSV. I'm using DPM 2012 R2 to backup this entire shared volume directly to LTO 4 tapes, the job last about 55h.
Since SCCM 2012 client has been installed(I don't manage it), the tape jobs are failing ramdomly after several hours with the error:
Type: Tape backup

If I uninstall SCCM 2012 client, no more issue, backups succeed. I've asked our SCCM team, no specific task has been scheduled or deployed in SCCM.
I can't see anything abnormal in logs.
Any idea?

I have disabled "Configuration Manager Maintenance" and I have also tried to set the registry value HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CCM\CcmEval\NotifyOnly to TRUE and still the same issue.
I can't find any correlated errors in the Windows event logs, task scheduler history neither in the DPM logs.
I've increased the log level of DPM by following the following procedure
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/george_bethanis/archive/2013/11/04/how-to-collect-dpm-verbose-logs.aspx
Now i'm suspecting the maintenance job of Windows 2012 R2, i'll try to disabled this task. But the fact is that I don't have this backup issue if SCCM 2012 client is not installed.
I'm waiting for next logs and will keep you informed

Extraction failing after source system and client copy

Hi all,
We refreshed our source QA system with a copy of production. And basically tried to "restore" the connection from our BW QA system. Some of the datasources can be extracted from BW, others fail with an error of "No transfer structure is available for InfoSource 0COSTCENTER_ATTR in the source system".
Trying to do the same thing with RSA3 in the source system, works fine.
The strange thing is it works for some objects but not others.
here's what we did:
1. System copy from R3 Prod to R3 QA
2. Client copy with R3 QA client 300 -> 200
3. Restore connectivity in BW QA to the R3 QA system (Using RSA1 -> Source System -> Restore)
4. Now some objects can be extracted in BW, others fail as I mentioned above.
I have regenerated the transfer structures in BW and R3.
All of these objects that don't work seem to work in RSA3 on the R3 system but not in RSA1 on BW.
All the SAP documentation is geared to copying the R3 source system and then restoring connectivity between BW and R3. I don't think any of it involves copying the client in the R3 source system - which might be causing our problems.
We are using an SAP delivered PDF and note 886102 mainly for direction.
SAP PDF is "How to... System Copy in SAP Business Intelligence System Landscapes".
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,
can you isolate somehow the kind of DataSource which works and those who don't?
Master data / transactional or client dependent and not, delta or full....
To which R/3 client is your BW connected? when you succeed loading the data, is it coming from the right client?
RSA3: do you run it specifying your BW client in the target sys field? does it make a difference if yes or if not?
Are your RFC connections and partner profiles all right?
Check some IDOCs sent by BW received in R/3 and vice-versa (RSSEND, RSINFO, RSRQST..). Load a hierarchy (via IDOC)... verify that your IDOC have the correct partner settings....
let us know
Olivier.

Automatically start SQL Agent service after SQL Server service fails and starts.

Hi!
I have SQL Server 2008 R2 with two main services - SQL Server and SQL Agent.
I'll try to describe my situation. It happens very occasionally, but sometimes SQL Server service terminates unexpectedly. It's my log:
09/13/2013 10:46:21,Service Control Manager,Error,The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 120000 milliseconds: Restart the service.
09/13/2013 10:46:21,,Error,[359] The local host server is not running,,,,
09/13/2013 10:46:22,MSSQLSERVER,Error,The MSSQLSERVER service terminated unexpectedly.,Server,1073760843,,
09/13/2013 10:46:22,,Warning,[139] AutoRestart: Attempting to restart the MSSQLSERVER service (attempt #1)...,,,,
09/13/2013 10:46:27,,Warning,[139] AutoRestart: Attempting to restart the MSSQLSERVER service (attempt #2)...,,,,
09/13/2013 10:46:32,,Warning,[139] AutoRestart: Attempting to restart the MSSQLSERVER service (attempt #3)...,,,,

09/13/2013 10:46:32,,Warning,[360] SQLServerAgent initiating shutdown following MSSQLSERVER shutdown,,,,
As you can see, SQL Server service terminates unexpectedly. Then SQL Agent service tries to start SQL Server service. After unsuccessfully attempts to start SQL Server service, SQL Agent service stops itself. I have the option setting in SQL Server
service to start itself after unexpectedly stop within 2 minutes and it is works well. But I have to start my SQL Agent service after this manually. Unfortunately, I can't investigate the reason of my SQL Server stops unexpectedly and in this case I just want
to make the settings to start both of my services SQL Server and SQL Agent automatically after this. How can I set up this? How can I make my SQL Agent service starts after SQL Server service?

Hello,
SQL server agent service depends on SQL server service so unless SQL server service comes online agent will not come online so agent is depended on SQL server not the other wise.
Now is your server 2008 R2 patched to latest service pack (SP2).If not please upgrade it to latest SP.Some fixes are there in Sp which will subside this issue.Can you paste output of
select @@version
>>Then SQL Agent service tries to start SQL Server service.No this is not the case
>>Unfortunately, I can't investigate the reason of my SQL Server stops unexpectedly
Did you checked sql server errorlog and windows event log completely.Please do so and paste if you find some more info

Interface getting failed after changing the Business system to that service

Hello All,
Our Env... is XI 3.0 and this is related to produciton env.
Based on our client requirment to change the business system from client 871 to 100 for one of the R3 system which is reciever type(rfc).
After doing all the necessary changes , that particular service is getting failed and in the CC monitoring for that service I can see the log as "RFC_ERROR_LOGIN_FAILURE" mandate 871 (earlier client) does not exist in the system.
The steps which I have followed to change the Business system.
1>I loged into the SLD of PRD system and clicked on businsess landscape .then i have clicked on the specified system to be changed (RY1 ) and then clicked on change mode and selected the required client (100) and saved the settings.
2>I have logged into ID(Integration Directory) and selected the service (RY1) which need to be changed .Under service -->Adaper specific -->compare sld configurations and then clicked on apply changes.
3>Now selected that communication channel of service (RY1) RFCRecieverR3 and changed the client 871 to 100 and the password of user XIRFCUSER ...
Then i saved the changes and after that i have activated that interface.
After that when i logged into CC monitoring and viewed that service channels and see the following errors:
Receiver channel 'RFCReceiverR3' for party '', service 'RY1'
Error can not instantiate RfcPool caused by:
com.sap.aii.af.rfc.RfcAdapterException: error initializing RfcClientPool:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.repository.RfcRepositoryException: can not connect to destination system due to: com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (103) RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: Mandante 871 não existente no sistema (selecionar mandante existente)
Can any one help me out of this situation , and i need to fix this ASAP as this is production system.
Awaiting for your reply.
Best Regards
Rakesh Reddy

Hello Nisar
Thanks for the update,
Let me say few points about this particular problem:
1>The interface "XX" from XI sends data to two systems( R3 -->RP1 & RY1), some thing like branched (same data is passed to both the reciever systems).
And the second RY1 is copy of First system RP1 (Production sys) which is used for data loading purpose and every week there will be a refresh from First sys (RP1) to Second(RY1).
2>Now the first sys(RP1) is recieving the data successfully from XI , and the second one (RY1) is getting failed .And this started after changing the Business system 871 to 100 .
3>As mentioned by you , I have checked all the points mentioned
    i)In SM59 for XI (ABAP part) two rfc's are maintained (LCRSAPRFC & SAPSLDAPI) and the test connection is also fine...But I did not find these two connections in reciever systems(RP1 & RY1 too).
   ii)In reciever system RY1 ,when i went to RZ70 , i did not noticed any special settings and SLD Bridge :Gateway Information is not maitained over there .and the same thing in other reciever system(RP1) , with this can we confirm that there is nothing wrong in RZ70 settings.
   iii)In SLDAPICUST at recievers end for both systems nothing is mantained , where as in XI system all the details are maintained(Host name,port, user & password).
I have translated the error log into english from the CC monitoring for this interface which is in portuguese language .
It says that:
RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: 871 Mandante not in the system (select principal existing)
Kindly advise me what to do ..for fixing this problem(this is pretty urgent and it is production env...)..
If any information required , I can provide that.
Best Regards

Address list service failed to respond error on Exchange 2007 (after adding first 2013 server)

Hi,
We just installed an Exchange 2013 server within an Exchange 2007 environment.
The Exchange 2013 (CU6) server will be used to setup a hybrid connection with O365, and move mailboxes to O365.
After installing the Exchange 2013 server it isn't possible anymore to create/enable mailboxes on the Exchange 2007 server.
We end up with an error :
Mig1 TestAccount
Failed
Error:
The Exchange server address list service failed to respond. This could be because of an address list or email address policy configuration error.
Exchange Management Shell command attempted:
Enable-Mailbox -Identity 'domain.be/customer/TEMP/Mig1 TestAccount' -Alias 'mig1' -Database 'Exchange2007\SG01\DB02'
When executed via EMS we receive this error :
The Exchange server address list service failed to respond. This could be because of an address list or email address policy configuration error

Hi Lyncer
This error can be caused if the default Public Folder Database not being pointed to the exchange 2007 database which you are trying to create a new mailbox.
Also it can happen if System Attendant service is not running.
Troubleshooting steps:
1) Restart the System Attendant Service
2) Point the affected database to the default public folder
Follow the below steps to do that
Open EMC
Go to Organization Configuration > Mailbox.
Select the mailbox database that you want to change the default public folder database.
Right click the database and select properties
In <Mailbox Database Name> Properties, click the Client Settings tab.
Next to the Default public folder database box, click Browse.
In Select Public Folder Database, select the public folder database from the list of public folder databases, and then click OK.
Cheers!!!

SQL Azure sync service-- absurdly slow and fails after a few days

Hello. We have been trying to use Azure Data Sync to replicate an on-premise MSSQL database to an SQL Azure database for read-only access by a customer. This was working for a while, but stopped syncing after a couple months(12hr auto-sync schedule) with
no errors in the log. I had to re-create the sync group, but now it takes even longer than originally to try to sync, and never actually completes, as it gets interrupted by bi-weekly server restarts... It used to take a few hours to sync the new data in our
database(which is appended to daily)-- but this time it fails after 4+ days... It was unacceptably slow initially(IMO), but now it's clearly unusable. The original initialization of the data when I first set it up was less than 2 days of syncing.
It seems there is a throttle on the Azure sync service. Is this true? Would it be best to clear the SQL Azure database now and re-sync? Is there a way to pre-load the SQL Azure database with MSSQL on-premise data via a SQL backup file or something?
Please advise. Thank you.

when you re-created the sync group, does the member databases/hub database have pre-existing data?
when synching a sync group for the first time, make sure databases don't contain the same set of data, otherwise, you will run into conflicts which will completely slow down your sync...
I deleted the initial sync group because it wasn't syncing(auto or on-demand), nor creating a log entry with an error indicating why.
So, I simply deleted the sync group and re-created it with the same exact databases and settings. I did not delete all data in the SQL Azure database-- I was under the assumption that the sync service, with the tracking tables were smart enough to not get
confused with pre-existing data, but apparently that's not how this works?
I obviously can't delete the data in the source database(MSSQL on-premise), but I could delete the tables in the SQL Azure database if that's supposed to fix the problem-- then we'll just have to wait multiple days for it to be completely re-initialized,
hopefully without error... Is there a way to seed the data in some way to prevent this extremely log first sync?
Thank you for your help.

HT203175 How does one fix the problemd.... "application itunes helper.exe - mobile me service failed to start becasue missing MSVCR80.dll" ? This started after the last "update" of itunes

With a recent update of itunes, ( a couple weeks ago), when plugging in my iphone, itunes did not automatically launch...and when manually selecting itune to open I recieve the statement ...
"application itunes helper.exe - mobile me service failed to start becasue missing MSVCR80.dll" ?
I have gone to the itunes site and reloaded itunes....and did not fix the problem. ....help

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
