    Business Objects & Citrix

    Is anybody successfully running Business Objects via Citrix? I've managed to get it working to a point but I need to manually import the individual universes on the server rather than letting it "self maintain". I've tried created a share name to the universes on the server but...

    Assuming you're after VB code, try: Dim strCompName Set objWshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") strCompName = objWshShell.RegRead("HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName\ComputerName") objWshShell.RegWrite...

    USB problem within XP

    Thanks to those that replied - the fault is now no more! Unfortunately I'm not 100% sure what the resolution was as I made a couple of amendments. Firstly I disabled the Power Management for both USB ports (I'm 99.999% sure that this resolved the issue). I then installed the Microsoft...

    USB problem within XP

    Initially I was plugging it into the hub but I've also tried directly to the PC. I've tried two devices - a Compaq iPaq and a Sony Digital Camera. The iPaq works if I plug it in before powering up the PC, the Camera doesn't work at all. To add to the confusion, the camera may be down to...

    USB problem within XP

    Whenever I plug in a USB device my PC just locks up and the only thing I can do is reset it. I've tried uninstalling all the USB devices from within Device Manager and have Windows re-install them but it still hasn't resolved the problem. I think the problem may have arisen because I installed...

    Moving Oracle

    Are you keeping the same drive configuration on the new box? If so then the simplest way would be to install Oracle on your new machine, copy over the database files, parameter file, control files etc... to their respective areas, then re-create the Oracle sid using ORADIM. If you're moving...

    SVRMGR30 Command line parameters

    Hi, Is it possible to have a connect string AND specify a SQL script to run within the same SVRMGR30 command line string? Basically, I've created a DOS script to perform a backup of an 8.0.5 database. This script calls a SQL script that dumps the control file to trace and shuts down the...

    Migrating an 8.0.5 database to 8.1.6

    Thanks for the suggestions. The first error I was getting was ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. This was because I was running it via Terminal Services so if anyone has any idea how to sort that out that would be helpful. I then ran it from the console and after it flagged up a couple...

    Migrating an 8.0.5 database to 8.1.6

    I've got an 8.0.5 database and want to upgrade it to 8.1.6. I've tried using the Database Migration Tool but that keeps failing. Is there a simple way to manually upgrade??

    Accessing 'My Documents' Folder from Office apps

    Dreamboat, thanks for responding. I should quickly point out that I'm actually an IT Analyst not just your normal run of the mill user - hence the registry tweak. As for your suggestion, the default file locations were set for all Office apps but when I go to the Open File dialog box within...

    Accessing 'My Documents' Folder from Office apps

    HELP!! I'm using a company laptop and the build is such that the 'My Documents' area points to a folder on the network. This is all fine and dandy when browsing on my desktop, I can double click on 'My Documents' and voila! there they are in all their glory. However, if I open Word, Excel or...

    Unfortunately I'm running Oracle on NT. Do you know the NT equivalent for dbachpb's method?

    Oracle Passwords...

    How can you change the SYS account default password for SYSDBA and SYSOPER privileges? I've managed to change it for Normal privileges by using: ALTER USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY new_pwd; I thought that would work for the three different levels but if I try to connect as SYSDBA the old password...

I've restored the datafiles and redo log files, started the database in mount mode and used the RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME 'yyyy-mm-dd:hh:mm:ss; command to roll...

    Zelandakh, I've checked the user credentials as suggested and they are all Ok but still won't start. I've even changed them to the Admin account and still get the same error.
