Re: ARERR 400 - form does not hold a form definition

2006-10-13 Thread Carey Matthew Black

Thad,


From what I understand about how ARS creates a new form the process is

roughly something like this


get the next schemaId value.
Insert a form named FormN (01 is the norm, but you must have
01..06 so it went with 07).
Then all the non-default properties are set for Form07 then at the
end a Rename is done to move the name from Form07 to what ever you
called it in the Admin Tool.


I would also try to rename a form and see what happens then too.

And on your dev server (that is working normally) repeat actions there
and compare the SQL logs. That will most likely produce a Red Flag for
what is NOT happening on prod.



The root of this is likely very easy and centered around the form meta data.

You might have issues like:
 The server things Form01..06 exist but they do not and it chokes
because it tries to update it's cache and fails(something goes bang)
to do so.
  Their is a VUI/field definition for an arschemaId that does not
exist and ...bang...

The hard part is you are well beyond what most of us can trouble shot
from this end of emails. :( And your Prod server is where the problem
is, but your Dev server is Happy.

You also mentioned that your problems started with an import to the
production server. what likely happened is that you tripped over a
failure in ARS to be fully backwards compatible (or some other subtle
thing) that you may not be able to fully duplicate. It might even have
been something like the ARS server lost it's connection to the RDBMS
during the object import and only part of the objects got there. Which
might explain why the server thinks there are Form01..06 out there
somewhere.

I doubt BMC Level 1 Tech support will be of much help, but you should
already be hammering them for help too.

Good luck.

Thad,

 My first though would be to turn on SQL logs as you try to create a
 new form. Then pick through the log and see what the ARS server is
 doing before it gives the error. It may be subtle to find, but I would
 hope that the SQL log would show you what is going on.

  Hello,
 
  Recently, when trying to import a def file, we started getting an ARERR 400.
   After searching the archives, I found where someone else had the same
  issue, but I didn't see that a solution was posted.  Based on that
  conversation, I tried just creating a new regular form, with no
  modifications and saving it.  On save we get the following error:
 
  The following item was not imported : xxxjunk (ARERR 55)
  The file specified for a form does not hold a form definition (ARERR 400)
 
  This is on our production server and doesn't happen on our dev server.  Does
  anyone have any suggestions on where to start?
 
  Server: ARS 6.3, no patch
  Oracle: 9.2.0.6
  OS: Win2k, sp4
 
  Thanks,

Cindy,

It's really easy, I just create a file with the Request ID in one column
and then the info that needs to be changed in the other columns.  Save
it to a .csv file and then use the Import Tool.

You have to change your preferences (in the Import Tool) to Update Old
Record with New Record's Data.  

This is extremely helpful when we need to make a lot of changes to
multiple fields.

And as an added bonus...

If you also export 'Last modified by' and 'Modified Date' fields then
the change to the record will not update those fields. So the data can
be updated without stomping on those values if you want to via a MERGE
action. ( This however is not possible if you take the workflow
approach as that is a MODIFY action.)

HTH.

Re: Duplicate Records

Title: Duplicate Records

Sure ... You can do a simple Set Fields action to set a 
Display Only temp field as an indicator. A second filter then checks the 
indicator to see if the value exists.

Example

Scenario: Regular Remedy form called FormA with 
only default fields (plus a 15 char display only field called zTmpDupID). 
You want to make sureusers don't enter a short description 
twice.

Submit version
 Filter 1 On Submit
 Action 1: 
 Set 
fields Read value from FormA
 
Set Fields If: 'Short Description' = 
$Short Description$
 
No Requests Match Set to 
$NULL$
 
Any Requests Match Use First 
Matching
 Set zTmpDupID = $Request ID$


Modifyversion
 Filter 1 On Modify
 Action 1: 
 Set 
fields Read value from FormA
 
Set Fields If: 'Short Description' = 
$Short Description$ and 'Request ID' != $Request ID$
 
No Requests Match Set to 
$NULL$
 
Any Requests Match Use First 
Matching
 Set zTmpDupID = $Request 
ID$


Filter 2
 If zTmpDupID != $NULL$ Show Error to prevent 
save


Hope this info helps

Thad,

I'm not sure if this will be the case for you or not, but when we had a similar 
problem (I'm not sure if we had the 400 error) it turned out that the time on 
the AR server was significantly off from the database.  I think it was like 
months (we were running on a VM), but once we changed the date, things started 
working for us again.

Don't know if it will help, but it's one more thing to look at

Re: Duplicate Records

2006-10-13 Thread Carey Matthew Black

You can combine the two Filter #1's below too.
Use the second Set field If: Qualification (include AND 'Request ID'
!= $Request ID$). It will work just as well for Submit as it does
modify.

The basic idea is Test4Dup that was published back in the days of
old in an RxPress. ( Circa 91? 92?)


The only gotcha is that it does not work for multiple transaction
that are taking place right now. (AKA: before the first transaction is
committed to the RDBMS.) One POSSIBLE way to get around that is to do
a Filter non-phased Push to a second form with data the you would us
in the Test4Dup logic. Then issue a Application-Release-Pending and
have your Test4Dup logic run on the target form for the Push action. I
think that will catch the second record even if the first parent
record is not yet committed to the RDBMS. (But I have not tested that
idea. Bugs may abound...)

Example

Scenario:   Regular Remedy form called FormA with only default fields (plus
a 15 char display only field called zTmpDupID).  You want to make sure users
don't enter a short description twice.

Submit version
Filter 1 On Submit
Action 1:
Set fields Read value from FormA
Set Fields If:  'Short Description' = $Short Description$
No Requests Match Set to $NULL$
Any Requests Match Use First Matching
Set zTmpDupID = $Request ID$


Modify version
Filter 1 On Modify
Action 1:
Set fields Read value from FormA
Set Fields If:  'Short Description' = $Short Description$ and
'Request ID' != $Request ID$
No Requests Match Set to $NULL$
Any Requests Match Use First Matching
Set zTmpDupID = $Request ID$


Filter 2
If zTmpDupID != $NULL$ Show Error to prevent save


Hope this info helps

Is there any way possible to use workflow to check for duplicate records in
a form without using a unique index?  I can't use an index because some of
the values in the field will be null.

Any help is appreciated.

Title: Duplicate Records

Yes this works, but ensure you take into
consideration that this will query the table with a match to that field, consider
the QBE settings, and the total record count for the table.



When we do this, we dont use a
table query, we use direct sql which is better performance for high row count
tables.



Select count(*) from view where
field = value



Then compare the set-fields-returned-value
!= 0 then error

Re: ARServer 7.0.1 Upgrade Installer

2006-10-13 Thread Axton

One would think there would have been some type of announcement.  I
have received confirmation from BMC that this is the maintenance
release that is supposed to address the unicode upgrade issues.

The problem is that the arupora utility dies due to a segmentation
fault and core dumps.  I'm working with BMC to resolve this issue, but
it's rather slow going at this point.  I'm hoping someone else in the
community has or will attempt the following and share their
experience:

Upgrade from ARS 6.0.1 to ARS 7.0.1
App Server: SunOS 5.9
Database: Remote Oracle 9i
Oracle Client on App Server: 10.2.0.whatever
Db Charset: UTF-8

I am using the following for the LANG and NLS_LANG on the app server:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
NLS_LANG=american_america.AL32UTF8

ar_install calls a binary name arupora that is included with the
install files.  This program connects to the oracle db directly and
gathers/updates a bunch of data.  This program generates a segfault
before it completes.

The script exits with the following text:
Running DB upgrade. This may take several minutes 
Running DB upgrade.
/*   Fri Oct 13 10:03:35 2006 */  Start of Stage 1 of 2

'windows-1252' errorCode=0
An error was encountered during the upgrade of the ORACLE database
./ar_install: test: argument expected

The core file is generated in the target installation directory.

While running truss, I see the following output just before it core dumps:

Re: ARServer 7.0.1 Upgrade Installer

2006-10-13 Thread Axton

I tracked the issue down to the data in the filter_sql table.  When
arupora is running, it logs to a file name /var/tmp/arsql.log.  By
viewing this file I could see what the last select was and concluded
that the data returned by that select statement was causing the
segfault.  I removed all the data from filter_sql (15 records) and the
installer completed successfully.

Hope this helps someone.

it's rather slow going at this point.  I'm hoping someone else in the

ar_install calls a binary name arupora that is included with the

gathers/updates a bunch of data.  This program generates a segfault
before it completes.

Re: Crystal Report timeout

One thing you might look at would be putting the ODBC users on their RPC thread. I know this won't help with timeouts (maybe if it is Remedy timing out) but at least those users won't be tying up database threads that are being utilized by end users within the application.

Hey all,

We are having an issue with Crystal Reports that are timing out. They 
use the Remedy ODBC driver to get to the DB.

The reporters want to be able to extend the timeout value. There 
isn't time right now to look at making the reports more efficient. After 
contacting Remedy, the best I got was to make changes to the AR.ini file which 
may or may not help.

Anyone else fix this problem?

Re: Group Population List

Hi Chris,
I created a join form between the Group and User forms. 
Before I could create the join, this required adding a field to the 
Group form to store the string equivalent of the group ID 
integer, and some additional workflow to populate the character 
field.

There is a thread in the archives titled "Displaying users 
groups" from April 2006 that describes the method I used to accomplish this in 
more detail.

Re: Helpdesk 6.0 Support Panel displaying groups I am not a member of.

2006-10-13 Thread Eric Cleereman (IT)
Hi Jackson,

We had a similar problem.  Here's one approach to take care of it:
 - Create a hidden field called AssignedToGroupID on form(s) containing the 
records.
 - Create workflow to populate this field for any future records.
 - Populate this field for existing records via SQL, an escalation, whatever 
works best for you.
 - Create a hidden temp field on the form containing the table, called 
zTmpGroupIDs.
 - Populate this field using an SQL query against USER_X (the User form).  The 
groups for a given user are stored as Group IDs at the database level, in the 
following format:  ID1;ID2;ID3;etc;
 - Change your qualification to:  
   (
(('zTmpKeyword'=MAINHELPDESK)  AND ('Status Integer'4))
OR (('zTmpKeyword'=MAINCHANGE) AND ('Status Integer'6))
OR (('zTmpKeyword'=MAINTASK)   AND ('Status Integer'4))
) 
   AND (($zTmpShowAssignedReq$='zTmpKeyword') OR ($zTmpShowAssignedReq$=All))
   AND (
(($ConsoleViewBy$=Myself) AND ('Assigned To'=$USER$))
OR (($ConsoleViewBy$=Group) AND (
 ('AssignedToGroupID'=$NULL$)
 OR ($zTmpGroupIDs$ LIKE (+'AssignedToGroupID'+;%))
 OR ($zTmpGroupIDs$ LIKE (%;+'AssignedToGroupID'+;%))
 )
OR (($ConsoleViewBy$=Group Unassigned) AND ('Assigned To'=$NULL$))
OR (($ConsoleViewBy$=Date) AND ('Requested Completion 
Date'=$zTmpDate1$)) 
OR ($ConsoleViewBy$ = Any)
)

This takes advantage of the group IDs always having a semicolon after them.  So 
while 1000 would be like 100%, 1000; would not be like 100%;

You can suppress the message. However, you should also look into the usage of your Float licenses. This message only appears if an action that would use a Write token had occurred and none were available. By examining who and what is being done and the relationship to the use of float licenses, you can be proactive. It is not nice to get a call from an aggravated manager

We worked through this same issue recently with tech support and the
bottom line answer was no. We tried a lot of different variations on
the query even though BMC said it couldn't be done and eventually I had
to admit that I couldn't prove them wrong.

Fortunately, we only had 3 group names we had to change. You just have
to make sure that no complete group name is a part of any other group
name. For example, we couldn't have both 'Production Support' and 'IDX
Production Support' because the complete name of one is part of the
other.

Hi James,

I would agree except I have Server Statistics turned on and 
gathering info every 20 minutes. The highest my floating license count has 
gotten is 26. We have 33 floating licenses. The server stats also show 0 float 
license token denied. That is why I am confused???

Brian:  You can suppress the message. However, you should also look into 
the usage of your Float licenses. This message only appears if an action 
that would use a Write token had occurred and none were available. By 
examining who and what is being done and the relationship to the use of float

I'm almost positive I know the 'real reason' to this, a friend of mine who is not really from an IT background sent me a mail saying that even engineers at Microsoft do not know the answer to this (which I find hard to believe). Reason being after he sent me that mailI immediatly guessed the reason behind this, and I am willing to bet I am right about it..

Wanted to see if anyone here can figure it out... Try this out..

Try creating a directoryor a file (with no extension)named con and it wont let you.. while creating a directoryusing the GUI it simply wont let you create it(no error displayed)but if you try using DOS it will return an error -invalid name.. Similary if you create a file and try to name it con, it says this name is 'reserved for a device'..

Personally I donot think this is reserved for a device as such. It is reserved for 'something else'.At least thats my guess...

Does anyone know why you cantname a file or directory namedcon? I have a good guess and am willing to bet I'm right... Just want to compare my guess to that of others around here...

We are attempting to implement AREA LDAP so that it can authenticate to
multiple forests, that each have multiple domains.  We can get to the
domains within the first forest, but cannot get to the second forest,
when a match is not found in the first forest.  

We are using Remedy 6.03 patch 11, Solaris, Unix and Oracle.

Has anyone been successful at implementing AREA LDAP with Multiple

The message you refer to is one that is sent when there were no tokens available when a user logged on and then was given one later. That is why I'm confused


I would suggest looking into the use of rrrLicense as it will tell you if and when you ran out of Float Write tokens (licenses).

http://whoelsebutdalieu.wordpress.com/2006/08/23/microsoft-is-just-funny-like-that/

It's because of the old days of DOS. CON is for the console (screen), PRN for printer, NUL basically means NULL or nothing. Try typing in DIR  PRN into a command window. The directory listing will print. DIR  NUL will not show anything. (In the old days programmers would run commands and have the output go to NUL so that they ran "transparently.")


Looks like con, prn, nul can not be used.

Now for the real reason:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/fq00-017.mspx

What's this bulletin about?Microsoft Security Bulletin MS00-017 announces the availability of a patch that eliminates a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows 98 Second Edition. Under certain circumstances, the vulnerability could cause affected systems to crash. Microsoft is committed to protecting customers' information, and is providing the bulletin to inform customers of the vulnerability and what they can do about it. 
What causes the vulnerability?The vulnerability results because of a flaw in the way Windows 95 and 98 (including Windows 98 Second Edition) parse file path names. Device names such as COM1, CON or LPT1 are reserved words, and they can't be used as folder or file names. When parsing a reference to a path, Windows 95 and 98 check for the presence of a single DOS device name in the path. If one is found, the path is correctly treated as invalid and an error is returned. However, neither Windows 95 nor 98 check for multiple DOS device names. This is the source of the vulnerability. 
If a read or write operation is attempted to a path whose name contains multiple DOS device names, it will cause Windows 95 and 98 to attempt to access invalid resources. In some cases, the effect of this invalid access would be to cause the application that supplied the path to hang, but the more likely effect is that the machine would present a blue debug screen and crash.

How Smart Is Your Right Foot?

This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And you will keep
trying it at least 50 more times to see if you can outsmart your foot.
But you can't.

1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and
make clockwise circles with it.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with
your
right hand. Your foot will change directions.

I told you so...And there is nothing you can do about it. Make sure you
pass this on to your friends. They won't be able to do it either.

Hi 
Joe,

If you 
really want a file named con inWindows, 
trytyping the name as follows:
 press 
c
 press 
o
 press 
n
 press 
and hold ALT
 press 2 
on the number pad (not the numbers above the alpha section)

 press 5 
on the number pad
 press 5 on the number pad

 release ALT

This actually 
creates a file named con[hard space]. The hard 
space is different than a conventional space, so Windows will allow it at the 
end of a file name, but it will still display it as if it were a 
space.

If you want two 
files named con, you can use the same trick as above, 
but end with two hard spaces, or a space and a hard space:
 C:\dir|find "con" 10/13/2006 05:01 
PM 
0 con  10/13/2006 05:02

0 con

-- 
How Smart Is Your Right Foot?


This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And you will keep
trying it at least 50 more times to see if you can outsmart your foot.
But you can't.


1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and
make clockwise circles with it.


2. Now, while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with your
right hand. Your foot will change directions.


I told you so...And there is nothing you can do about it. Make sure you
pass this on to your friends. They won't be able to do it either.

Depends on how slow you draw the 6 in the air, or maybe 
I'm not normal (there said it before anyone else 
grin)

You can also draw the 6 clockwise (I know people that 
make their 6s that way. Start at the top left of the circle part of the 6 
and make the circle clockwise. When you get to the starting point continue 
upward to make the top.)

My guess was the same as LJ's




If con was allowed as a directory or file name in DOS,then the command

copy con A

would evaluate to 2 possible interprtation by the system - 1) to create a file A, or to copy the contents of file con to file A, if there was a file called conwithin the directory... so at least somebody thinks like me out there :-) I was begining to wonder why it would spit out an error that itsa reserved device name..

Butmaybe the others are right though.. consoles are devices so if its because conrepresents consoles thatwe are not allowed to name a file con..

Have a nice weekend guys and thanks for replying to a totally unrelated thread... It wasn't a spam.. just thought it was Friday and since I was curious about this topic thought I'd share it with some of the brains out here on the list...

In case this isn't spam...and your truly curious con stands for console...or in today's world command prompt. A quick easy way to create text or batch files is to type

copy con abc.txt

when you hit enter it starts recording what is typed on the console into the file...then when you are done writing the file you hit Ctrl-Z and hit enter and the file is saved...not much of a mystery for people involved in puters since the dos days...and BTW...the 's around abc.txt are not typed...

I'm almost positive I know the 'real reason' to this, a friend of mine who is not really from an IT background sent me a mail saying that even engineers at Microsoft do not know the answer to this (which I find hard to believe). Reason being after he sent me that mailI immediatly guessed the reason behind this, and I am willing to bet I am right about it..

Wanted to see if anyone here can figure it out... Try this out..

Try creating a directoryor a file (with no extension)named con and it wont let you.. while creating a directoryusing the GUI it simply wont let you create it(no error displayed)but if you try using DOS it will return an error -invalid name.. Similary if you create a file and try to name it con, it says this name is 'reserved for a device'..

Personally I donot think this is reserved for a device as such. It is reserved for 'something else'.At least thats my guess...

Does anyone know why you cantname a file or directory namedcon? I have a good guess and am willing to bet I'm right... Just want to compare my guess to that of others around here...

Write to me off list...

Re: License Write Token Message (U)

Look in the aruser.log file for floating token usage.  Depending on
the interval set in the server statistics, it may have not captured
the peak usage.

The message you refer to is one that is sent when there were no tokens

I'm confused


I would suggest looking into the use of rrrLicense as it will tell you if
and when you ran out of Float Write tokens (licenses).

Hi James,

I would agree except I have Server Statistics turned on and gathering info
every 20 minutes. The highest my floating license count has gotten is 26. We
have 33 floating licenses. The server stats also show 0 float license token
denied. That is why I am confused???

Re: ARServer 7.0.1 Upgrade Installer

2006-10-13 Thread Shellman, David
Axton,

Thanks for the info.  I'll keep this in mind if we upgrade our SUN
servers instead of going to Windows.

Before folks ask, we are looking at moving to Windows for many of the
same reasons that James's is looking at moving to SUN.  We have had more
issues with down time since we went into a SUN Cluster than when we ever
had on a stand alone SUN box.  Issues have been disk related, human
error, corruption of files for another database that crashed the storage
array, etc.  Throw on top of it a very controlling UNIX admin that uses
SOX and Audits as justification for complete control.  It took me a
little over 6 months to document a fairly simple 6.3 installation and
create a installation package for them to execute.  It's time to move
back to stand alone servers.

I tracked the issue down to the data in the filter_sql table.  When
arupora is running, it logs to a file name /var/tmp/arsql.log.  By
viewing this file I could see what the last select was and concluded
that the data returned by that select statement was causing the
segfault.  I removed all the data from filter_sql (15 records) and the
installer completed successfully.

Hope this helps someone.
