Resolving "WebSphere application server v7 is currently running" message in IBM Installation Manager on Windows 7 - updates

I received the message "WebSphere application server v7 is currently running. Please shut it down to continue." while attempting to upgrade my local version of WebSphere Application Server 7 using IBM Installation Manager on Windows 7. The server was not running at the time. The message also persisted after a reboot.

According to this technote, any running Java process can cause this issue. I found a running instance of javaw.exe using Process Manager, closed it, and the installation was able to proceed from there.

IBM Worklight 6.1 - Worklight deployment fails on SUSE Linux using a remote database

I'm trying to deploy a war file to websphere through worklight using suse linux and a remote database.
When I tried to deploy the war file using a remote database(I'm using oracle to test), I'm getting the following error:
GetSQLQueryResult failed with error code java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: IO Error: Connection reset
at oracle.jdbc.driver.PhysicalConnection.<init>(PhysicalConnection.java:711)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.T4CConnection.<init>(T4CConnection.java:385)

Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
at java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite(SocketOutputStream.java:118)
at java.net.SocketOutputStream.write(SocketOutputStream.java:159)
I can access the remote machine database from the machine where worklight is installed.
Also, if I use the same WAR file on a local database on SUSE Linux, or use a remote database on another OS(Windows for example), the app is deployed correctly.
Something is not right with the question description...
You do not deploy .war files to Worklight
Worklight, in a remote server, is comprised of a Java EE .jar file, deployed to the application server (WAS/Liberty profile, Tomcat)
A .war file, in Worklight, is a Java web app containing server-related artifacts required for running your application (generated by the Studio/CLI tool); you deploy this .war file to the application server where Worklight Server is deployed to
That said,
A connection reset means there is a general network issue and is not related to Worklight itself.
It sounds like a network issue with the specific machine running Suse Linux.
- Check firewall settings, timeout values, blocked ports...

How to use primefaces on cloudbees glassfish server

We are developing an Java EE webapp on a glassfish 4 server running in the cloubeees cloud. We want to use Primefaces 3.5 . Our app runs perfectly on a local glassfish server after we copied the commons-fileupload.jar into the lib domain/lib folder. When we push the app into the cloud it isnt deployed the log says:
Cause: Class 'org.primefaces.component.fileupload.FileUploadRenderer' is missing a runtime dependency: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/fileupload/FileItem
So i think the server misses the fileupload.jar, but we dont have acces to the server administration console or the folder structure. Does anyone here used Primefaces in the cloudbees cloud or knows a other way to fix the problem?
best regards
Peter!

How to fix 'Managed SQL Server Installer has stopped working'

I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition on Windows Server 2008. I have done all the process till the Installation correctly. However, the installer displays the message "Managed SQL Server Installer has stopped working".
No online Solution has been provided yet....
Anyone sorted this problem before?
This is usually a problem with your installation of .NET framework. E.g:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/34671131-a095-4068-b4d8-ab5ef6f5b8cc/managed-sql-server-installer-has-stopped-working
Check that your installations are all in working order by using the tools on this site:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2008/10/13/8999004.aspx
You may have to re-install any or all of your .NET framework versions.
Instead of trying several methods that have not been approved, it is better to repair the MSSQL Server installation. On the other hand, there is some other issues that can be encountered during the repair process i.e. Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 as shown below.
In this case, if you have trouble during .NET Framework installation, you can install it by following the steps below (requires Windows 8, 8.1 or 10) setup disc or ISO file):
1) First you'll need to copy Windows 8 setup files to your hard disk. If you have Windows 8 setup ISO copied in your system, you can mount it by right-click on it and select "Mount" option or you can extract its content using 7-Zip.
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content, its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can access its content.
2) Now open Command Prompt as Administrator as mentioned here and then provide following command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:F:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Here "F:" represents the CD/DVD drive letter in your system which contains Windows 8 setup disc. Replace it with the correct drive letter according to your system.
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a directory, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.
3) As soon as you execute the above mentioned command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system and it'll not require Internet connection.
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.
4) That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.
For more information have a look at How to Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Offline in Windows 8 and Later without Internet Connection?. Hope this helps...

"Unauthorized operation" error when installing Express Edition

Microsoft Outlook 2010 with Business Contact Manager worked on my Vista laptop but, laptop died. Now, have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 tower since November. Loaded Office 2010 x86 just fine but, trying to install BCM, failed to install SQL Server Express.
So, now I can't get SQL Server 2008 to install; the Engine, that is, all supporting files install fine. I read that if you can install SQL Server 2008 with the ID=MSSMLBIZ, BCM will pass over the server install, and continue with install. I read that the issue may be SQL Server x86 on Win 7 x64. So, I tried SQL Server x64. Every time I get an Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.
Install always fails at step SqlBrowserConfigAction_install_ConfigNonRC_Cpu32. So, ran as Admin, from Admin log-in, from the root directory in the Admin log-in, changing permissions on the Security Registry KEY, turned off firewall, all suggestions still failed.
Coincidentally, I have an Update for Windows 7 for x64-based systems (KB2732487) that has failed to install, as well.
I think your Windows 7 is not proper installed, perhaps while installing Windows Updates.
But as for the
SqlBrowserConfigAction_install_ConfigNonRC_Cpu32
I dont understand: ConfigNonRC , in Microsoft terms stands the RC for Release Candidate.
If i was you i should try this:
Open CMD as Admin
Typ: "sfc /scannow"
When that's ready your pc may restart.
Now at CMD typ: "sfc /verifyonly"
If it shows any errors, try "sfc /scannow" again.
If it does not show any errors, try to install Windows Updates. All of them.
If this works, delete all existing SQL apps. And install the Core first.
If the updates can't install, You can try to re-install Windows 7 what i basically should not do and just use MySQL. A lot faster & reliable these days.
I hope this will fix your problems!

Unable to connect to http://localhost:8091/index.html

I have just installed CouchBase Server Enterprise v2.0.0 using the setup.exe on my Windows 7 64bit machine and supposedly the Browser based Console should appear automatically after installation but all i am getting is
Unable to Connect:
**Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8091.**
The CouchBase service is running when I check?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled a couple of times now?
Am I missing something here?
You are probably hitting a known issue related to IP address acquisition during startup of Couchbase Server.
I have documented a work around here: http://tugdualgrall.blogspot.com/2012/12/what-to-do-if-your-couchbase-server.html
As stated in the blog post it will be fixed in the 2.0.1 release
