For those times you are Tomb Raiding I would like to plug LJ's parsing
tools: http://remedylegacy.com/tools.  I cannot believe how much these have
change my troubleshooting life.  The combination of these tools and leaving
server API/SQL/Filter/ESC logging on full time to a single file has
resulted in finding the root of complex issue again and again.  I can
typically weed through gigabytes of logs and parse (and reparse) it down to
just the interesting section in minutes.

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-16 Thread Joe D'Souza
Mine too. It brings out my "Sheldon-ism" when I see some developers leave a
fully developed system with the default note, warning and error number which
makes it that much more harder to trace the cause of these messages.

 

I have an approach with those numbers that tells me 1) if it was a filter or
active link, 2) which form it might be originating from (which is very
useful if the error is from some other forms happening from a push or set
field to or from some other form) and 3) identifies it right off the bat if
it's a note, warning or error (as some users have a difficult time reporting
these messages accurately).

 

Just that number should be able to convey information such as this and other
information if possible. Sometimes it may need additional info such as what
kind of a client it is coming from, etc. So depending on your need, it is a
nice idea to design message numbers that tell you a brief story.

 

My 2 cents.

 

Joe

Warren,

 

Just to confirm behavior.

 

The AR System does not record anywhere in the DB where you are logged in
from.  So, there is no relationship here to USER_CACHE or anything else.
There is an in memory list of connections.  That in memory list is what
holds where you are connected from and would complain if it was different
systems.  No amount of reloading or resetting or reviewing or anything of
the user_cache table would have made any difference - and you found that
out.

 

IF the error was being caused by something within Remedy itself, restarting
the system would have cleared this in memory list and corrected the problem.

 

Nowhere in our logic do we have workflow that records where a user is
logging in from.  The logic you found is custom logic as you suspected.  It
looks like whoever implemented it coopted our error message and issued the
same error as we would issue.

 

I am glad that you found the custom logic causing the problem in this
situation.

Well  You guys all rock.  But it turned out to be workflow related!

I don't know if this is out of the box, but there are some active links that
fire when a person first logs in to my system and checks if they logged in
from some where else.  My suspicion is that it is custom and related to the
addition of a government warning that pops up when a user first logs in.
This workflow checks a form to see if a person is still logged in.  There is
some workflow that is supposed to delete the form entry when you log out,
but because of the initial dbase issues I was having, that didn't happen for
these 2 users (supposition on my part).  This is separate from whatever
process Remedy installed to check the licensing requirements, but it gives
the same error message when tripped!  Once I deleted the 2 users entries
from this form, they were able to log in without issue (without the admin
privs).  Problem solved.

I've been here for 6 years almost, and this is the first time I've run into
this!

Thank you again for everyone's kind suggestions.  I now know more about how
Remedy cache's users then I ever thought possible!

Take care!

Warren,

Just to confirm behavior.

The AR System does not record anywhere in the DB where you are logged in from.  
So, there is no relationship here to USER_CACHE or anything else.  There is an 
in memory list of connections.  That in memory list is what holds where you are 
connected from and would complain if it was different systems.  No amount of 
reloading or resetting or reviewing or anything of the user_cache table would 
have made any difference – and you found that out.

IF the error was being caused by something within Remedy itself, restarting the 
system would have cleared this in memory list and corrected the problem.

Nowhere in our logic do we have workflow that records where a user is logging 
in from.  The logic you found is custom logic as you suspected.  It looks like 
whoever implemented it coopted our error message and issued the same error as 
we would issue.

I am glad that you found the custom logic causing the problem in this situation.

But even after they are logged out from that machine and they just focus on the 
one.  It keeps happening.  That's why I gave him the admin license just so he 
wouldn't keep receiving the message.
I've just finished working with my 2 problem children.  I've taken quite a bit 
of logging and I am hoping I can track down where Remedy tracks this info and 
fix it there.  I'll let you know what I find.  Might be kind of interesting!

And there was in fact an active link that first checked if the user was in
the Admin group.

There would be one subtle but important difference when an error such as
that comes out of workflow..

 

It would happen even with an Administrative user, UNLESS in the Run If
condition, there is a check for group membership or if you have used the
results of APPLICATION-CONFIRM-GROUP to exclude certain groups from running
that workflow.

 

With the out of the box message, you would not get that error with
Administrative users having a Fixed License.

 

Cheers

Well  You guys all rock.  But it turned out to be workflow related!

I don't know if this is out of the box, but there are some active links that
fire when a person first logs in to my system and checks if they logged in
from some where else.  My suspicion is that it is custom and related to the
addition of a government warning that pops up when a user first logs in.
This workflow checks a form to see if a person is still logged in.  There is
some workflow that is supposed to delete the form entry when you log out,
but because of the initial dbase issues I was having, that didn't happen for
these 2 users (supposition on my part).  This is separate from whatever
process Remedy installed to check the licensing requirements, but it gives
the same error message when tripped!  Once I deleted the 2 users entries
from this form, they were able to log in without issue (without the admin
privs).  Problem solved.

I've been here for 6 years almost, and this is the first time I've run into
this!

Thank you again for everyone's kind suggestions.  I now know more about how
Remedy cache's users then I ever thought possible!

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night my fellow listers!

First off, I apologize for not responding sooner to everyone's kind offer of
support.  It was a bit chilly this morning here in Maryland, so my kids
schools went to a 2 hour delay to prevent the little darlings from having to
wear gloves and a hat (insert sarcastic eye roll here)!

The issue is not spawned by a user still being logged on to a separate
machine.  In fact, I had them log out, go to another machine, and then come
back and log back in.  They got the message, and the user.log reflected the
other machine.  But even after they are logged out from that machine and
they just focus on the one.  It keeps happening.  That's why I gave him the
admin license just so he wouldn't keep receiving the message.

I've just finished working with my 2 problem children.  I've taken quite a
bit of logging and I am hoping I can track down where Remedy tracks this
info and fix it there.  I'll let you know what I find.  Might be kind of
interesting!

Take care for now!

Happy Friday!

Great point..

 

With a recent Windows update, my outlook client using pop/smtp to connect to
my mail server, would not connect to the incoming mail server.

 

Ptroblem turned out to be outlook no longer likes IPv6 to be enabled at the
time of an initial connect. So I have to disable IPv6, have outlook connect
to the incoming mail server, and then re-enable IPv6 after which it works
fine. This happens everytime I restart my machine and seems to be a flaw
with one of the updates.

 

I know that is not the same issue as you, but could be a related issue?

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-13 Thread Warren R. Baltimore II
Good morning/afternoon/evening/night my fellow listers!

First off, I apologize for not responding sooner to everyone's kind offer
of support.  It was a bit chilly this morning here in Maryland, so my kids
schools went to a 2 hour delay to prevent the little darlings from having
to wear gloves and a hat (insert sarcastic eye roll here)!

The issue is not spawned by a user still being logged on to a separate
machine.  In fact, I had them log out, go to another machine, and then come
back and log back in.  They got the message, and the user.log reflected the
other machine.  But even after they are logged out from that machine and
they just focus on the one.  It keeps happening.  That's why I gave him the
admin license just so he wouldn't keep receiving the message.

I've just finished working with my 2 problem children.  I've taken quite a
bit of logging and I am hoping I can track down where Remedy tracks this
info and fix it there.  I'll let you know what I find.  Might be kind of
interesting!

Take care for now!

Happy Friday!

Hi,

An admin can login from multiple machines, that is why the error disappears

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Joe D'Souza
While the user is not logged on from the machine they are trying to log in
from when receiving the error that they are logged in from another machine,
do you see any activity from that particular user on user logging? It might
just be a plain and simple case of the user actually having logged in
somewhere else and being automatically staying logged in from there.

 

What happens after the timeout?

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Brian Goralczyk
If you gave the person admin permissions and the problem went away and then
came back after you removed it.  Then the issue isn't the user_cache.  The
issue is the permissions that the user has and the permissions required for
the screen you are trying to access.  Everything is changing when
permissions are changed so the user_cache and that whole under lying system
is working fine.

I am sorry I don't have better advice for you, but I would say find someone
who it is working for and making sure that this user has the same access.
Another thing to look into is the data for their permissions in the db.
You might see a bit of corruption in the group assignment.  I have found
issues with manually pasting in values sometimes.  I hope some of that
helps.

What error is the user getting?   9361 ?

Also ... When updating a user I think the user cache only gets updated when one 
of the following changes (so your checkbox may not have updated it)   
   Login Name, Password, License Type, Email Address, Default Notify mechanism


You could change their license type to read, save, refresh, and change it back 
to see if that user's record in the user_cache is updated

Hi,

If you get ARERR 329, the user/password seems not to match. At least not to
what is in the cache...

You can use another program named arecache to add a new admin user that you
can later use with arreload.

Note that the -s option changed to/from -t at some point. I do not remember
which version.

Choose a Login Name and Request ID that does not exist.

  arcache -Ua -d -e 1500 -n loginname -s server -g "1;" -l1 -p passwd

If you are out of fixed licenses, you might need to delete a current Fixed
user before you add the new one.

 arcache -Ud -d -e x -s ServerName

Finally try the arreload again.

I also recall a bug with arreload together with the -d option. Try avoiding
-d. I do not remember the exact version with this problem either...

Not mid-tier I'm afraid.  They are using a Windows User Client (ARS 6.3
ITSM 5.5)  I've had the user clear the local cache.  Nothing seems to
work.  And I can't get the darn arreload to run.

It's very frustrating!

Hi,

Have you tried the arreload-program?
arreload -u User -f -a adminuser -p adminpassword

The -f is supposed to flush the cache before reloading it.

My legacy server is showing an issue that I have not dealt with before.

A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to 
tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has 
been resolved.  A couple of my users had closed their clients during that time 
and when they came back received the error message that they were still logged 
on and would they like the other session closed.  They would answer in the 
affirmative, but when they would then log back on, they would get the same 
message.  I then tried to kick them off from the admin tool, but they would 
still get the message.

I tried that Mark by utilizing a display only check box on the form.  I
figured that would workmaybe not?

I also tried giving the user Administrator level privileges.  As I
expected, the problem went away.  But the moment I took them back, the
problem was back.

If he just clicks the x in the warning box, he can work.  The funny thing
is that it pops back up when he opens his helpdesk case form.  I suspect
this may have something to do with the Helpdesk license assigned to him.
Just a guess though.

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Walters, Mark
If you're having problems with arreload you can force a reload of the 
user_cache table by doing a Modify All on all of the records in the User form - 
select them all and change a field such as the Creator/Submitter - one that 
you're not worried about.  This will cause a delete from/insert into the 
user_cache table for each user.

Re: USER_CACHE Problems

2015-02-12 Thread Tommy Morris
Have you tried to delete the local user cache on their machine? When odd things 
occur on my users’ clients I just have them delete the local user cache and it 
resolves those anomalies.

either with the password or with the authentication string (if using NT

authentication string is the NT domain) or both. Enter the password defined for

Hi,

Have you tried the arreload-program?
arreload -u User -f -a adminuser -p adminpassword

The -f is supposed to flush the cache before reloading it.

A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to

I then triggered (I think) a re-cache by adding a display only checkbox and 
then doing a modify all against all users with that checkbox checked.  I did 
this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.  However I 
still have a couple of users who are getting this message.

User logs don't show a need for them to be released, in fact they just show 
them logging in as normal.

They are able to work by just closing (using the x to close the window).  None 
the less, it is very annoying!

Any ideas?

The logged in status for a user is only in memory (not stored in the database) 
so have you restarted the AR System?

When using the arreload utility make sure to turn off the max number of records 
returned limit (if you have one set on the server) before running or you will 
only get that number of users loaded into the user_cache

A little help please!

My legacy server is showing an issue that I have not dealt with before.

A couple of days, my database started showing some problems related to
tablespace.  This caused a bunch of weird issues.  The tablespace issue has
been resolved.  A couple of my users had closed their clients during that
time and when they came back received the error message that they were
still logged on and would they like the other session closed.  They would
answer in the affirmative, but when they would then log back on, they would
get the same message.  I then tried to kick them off from the admin tool,
but they would still get the message.

I then triggered (I think) a re-cache by adding a display only checkbox and
then doing a modify all against all users with that checkbox checked.  I
did this based on kbase articles that talked about this type of issue.
However I still have a couple of users who are getting this message.

User logs don't show a need for them to be released, in fact they just show
them logging in as normal.

They are able to work by just closing (using the x to close the window).
None the less, it is very annoying!

Any ideas?

Thanks!
