Shouldn’t There Be A KB For This By Now?

Posted by: vinny In: software

SYMPTOMS:
When opening the Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Outlook Configuration Wizard you see:

“Microsoft Dynamics Configuration for Outlook with offline access has already been configured for use on this computer. Only one user can be configured per computer for Microsoft Dynamics CRM for outlook with Offline Access.”

CAUSE(S?):
When there’s a previous CRM 4.0 install coupled with a corrupted [...]

I Modifed What? When?

Posted by: vinny In: software

SYMPTOMS:
When editing navigation in Microsoft Office SharePoint Services 2007, you see the following error:

The page has been modified by another author time

CAUSE(S?):
Unknown.
WORKAROUND:
Everything I’ve read says to:

Remove all lists from the heading (Settings->Title…->View on Quick Launch)
Delete the heading
Change a list setting to show on the quick launch. This will re-create the heading.
Repeat for the other lists

In [...]

Getting this Microsoft CRM 4.0 “Status Reason”:
Waiting For Resources
in Settings->System Jobs? Custom workflow not firing? Check that the “Microsoft CRM Asynchronous Processing Service” is started. I suppose it is waiting for “resources”, however, I still think the quotes are warranted. How about a simple “Microsoft CRM Asynchronous Processing Service isn’t running”? Too long? “CRM Asynchronous [...]

Huh. I Guess That Makes Sense.

I guess domain is really important to Domino replication. So important that you have to specify it to replicate from one server to another in the same domain. This fails:
> pull servername foldername\dbname.nsf
11/14/2007 09:40:57 AM Database Replicator started
11/14/2007 09:40:57 AM Starting replication with server servername
11/14/2007 09:40:57 AM Unable to replicate foldername\dbname.nsf

Better Design Would Prevent This Up Front

Posted by: vinny In: software

So, I have a set of log files in csv format that look similar to this:
date, DATA, DATA1
mm/dd/yyyy,DATA,DATA1
”,,DATA,DATA1
”,,DATA,DATA1
mm/dd-1/yyyy,DATA,DATA1
”,,DATA,DATA1
”,,DATA,DATA1
Yeah. So, that makes it a little difficult to parse that log since date is missing if it hasn’t changed. how do you fill in those blanks without clobbering what’s there in, say, Excel? Some combo of IF(ISBLANK) [...]

What The!? Howza? Wouldja?

root crontab not running anything? Not even a simple `/usr/bin/echo “test”`? Solaris 10? Might want to ask the folks running the box if the root password (!) has expired…

Aye, Karamba!

Posted by: vinny In: software

Nixmon running under superkaramba doesn’t show temperature on my system. Just a sad-looking, lonely “°C”. Let’s see what’s up. Digging into

~/.kde/*/nixmon/nixmon_dk.theme

there’s a line that looks like this:

text x=230 y=15 sensor=program program=”awk ‘{print $2}’ /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature”

Well, that doesn’t look right. My box has a THM dir. Let’s make that:

text x=230 y=15 sensor=program program=”awk ‘{print $2}’ /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/temperature”

Close, then [...]
