11g: failed to initialize credentials store

• Problem: failed to initialize credentials store

  Hello
  
  I am facing a problem very weird ... I ' v has completed a complete ADF Application with Jdev11g build 5188, WLS 10.3 remote deployment works like a charm.
  
  For a few weeks now, I was not able to test my application or integrated Weblogic or distant Weblogic. Let me tell you the situation:
  (1) for the launch of JDev, I receive an error message in the console which tells me that it is impossible to recover the credentials for the database connection.
  (2) for the verification of a database connection, even with 'Remember my password' checked, I have to re - enter the password (to the first launch of jdev-am that clear?)
  (3) the connection works well (with the test button)
  (4) when you exit this screen propertie, I get a window that says: "Failed to initialize credentials store"-> OK; Then a new window error: "an error like, see details below.
  (5) for the integrated weblogic test I have a nullPointerException
  -> see below for more details and the trace of the stack
  
  Even more to the point:
  -In the AM configuration, I use a JDBC Data Source: java: comp/env/jdbc/EasygesProdDS
  -For step 2, 3 and 4, it is not in the database (i.e. it can be local or distant)
  
  
  I said it's a weird question because it used to work perfectly, a couple weeks back. I've been busy with deployments all this time. Something must have happenned, but what? What may be the cause?
  Also, I'm really looking forward to understand that we are ready for production.

  #### Cannot run application Easyges 2 due to error deploying to DefaultServer.
  [Application Easyges 2 stopped and undeployed from Server Instance DefaultServer]

  To my knowledge, this should not happen in this cwallet.sso problem JD11.1.1.0.1 was discovered in TP4 (frequently), where the file has been corrupted when you interrupt from the embedded server.
  This has not happened to me since JDev 11.1.1.0.0 I remember this when I saw you error.

• First Elements 14 Installer fails to initialize

  So, I bought Photoshop elements 14 and first 14 elements in a store with the DVD, installed items without a problem.  I am trying to install the first 14 and get the error "Setup is unable to initialize.  I do not pay extra for this program just so that I can not install it.  I tried to install the DVD or download the program and I get the error so be it.  Help, please!  And no, I don't have the preview versions installed on my laptop.  I'm on Windows 8 if that helps.

  start at the top and work your way down to apply applicable patches until your problem is solved.

  If (win) cc: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html

  If your error is:

  "Setup failed to initialize. File not found. ' or 'could not initialize installation. This could be due to missing files.

  first of all, rename folder OOBE OOBE.old.

  to find the OOBE:

  Win 64 bit OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE

  Win 32 bit OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE

  Mac os: HD > library > application support of > adobe > caps

  Mac os: USER > library > application support of > adobe > OOB

  If it fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.

  If you use an installation dvd:

  Copy the contents of the drive in a desktop folder and install from this directory.

  If you are using a mac:

  1. try to create a new user account in Mac with administrator privileges.

  2. connect to the new user, navigate to Mac HD > Application > utilities > Adobe Installer folder, locate products such as Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and uninstall the

  3. navigate to the user library > Application Support > Adobe and Adobe put in the trash.

  4. navigate to Mac HD > library > Application Support > Adobe and Adobe put in the trash.

  5 restart the installation.

• access to an unauthenticated user credentials store

  Hey gurus,

  I do development for IOM so I asked my questions at Identitiy Management space initially but did not answer, then post it here because I wasn't able to post under security space. I hope you can turned on some light on my question.

  I have developed a plugin that works for IOM on a WebLogic, but the context for IOM shows that the user is authenticated (anonymous user generated an automatic registration). All the actions the system inherit that context. So when in my plugin is triggered, I try to read a CCA to some references, I get access Exception.

  My survey of generic nature that I would like to know if there is a way around this limitation? My idea is based on the fact that (my plugin) code is run on WebLogic server so that it is true a bit and should be allowed to read the CS. I wonder if I have to do any additional configuration for that to happen.

  As I am a novice for WebLogic, please forgive me if a question seems ridiculous.

  Thanks in advance,

  Philipp

  You must define a political permission that gives your code access to map of special credentials in the store of credentials (or finer level - for a given map and key). You set a permission of source code as explained in the documentation:

  Development with the Framework of Bank of credentials - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

  Don't forget to wrap your call to the API of the credentials store in AccessController.doPrivileged ().

  I think you should first update / reinstall the driver for the webcam / software.
  You will get the webcam software / driver for Win 7 of the Toshiba UE driver page:

  before you would be stars the webcam driver installation, I recommend you to uninstall the pre-installed software (Control Panel-> programs and features)
  Then restart the laptop and install the new downloaded drivers

  Other times, it works, but after a pop up appears on the bar by saying that an unsupported USB device has been detected and could not be installed tasks!

  It is boring! Can someone help me please?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Seems that the software of webcam has stopped working.
  I think that you should first try to reinstall this software.

  First remove the software of the webcam of the system.
  Then clean the system and the registry using CCleaner!
  Reboot the laptop twice and run CCleaner several times to make sure that everything has been properly cleaned.
  Download the software of the webcam from the European driver Toshiba page, and then install it.
  Restart the unit. Launch msconfig (in RUN type msconfig) and go to the Startup tab.
  There, you must deselect landmark from the webcam software. This prevents the automatic start software. Restart the unit.

  Now, if you do want to use the webcam, select all programs-> Toshiba-> webcam software and start it.

• QuickTime Player 7.7.9 for Windows failed to initialize error 2096

  I tried to open QuickTime Player 7.7.9 in Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 with the latest updates for February 2016 and a pop-up message with the message of: QuickTime failed to initialize error 2096. There was also something to check that the application has been installed correctly.

  I opened the Panel configuration/programs and features/QuickTime 7 and selected repair. Open Setup ran the repair and closed. I restarted the computer and I tried to run QuickTime player with the same result. I uninstalled QuickTime player, restarted the computer, downloaded and installed QuickTime Player from the Apple web site.

  I tried to run the new QuickTime Player that sent the same message.

  I have somehow found and executed the installer of QuickTime Player 7.7.6 (1680.95.31). I am able to access the QuickTime Player. I checked the updates and ran the update for 7.7.9 and get once more: QuickTime failed to initialize error 2096.

  Any ideas why 7.7.9 does not work to me that computer gremlins are playing with my mind.

  Tom R

  snrdg2801, Apple's site, the latest version of QuickTime for Windows 7 is 7.7.9, you lost me here. Why aren't you install that?

• libnipalu.so, failed to initialize

  Greetings,

  We have installed NI - VISA 15.0 on RHEL 7.2 (release attached). When our application running, the following error message appears and the program interrupted. Abandonment occurs when the first call to viOpenDefaultRM().

  libnipalu.so, failed to initialize

  Maybe you need to run updateNIDrivers

  Quit (core dumped)

  We ran updateNIDrivers (release attached), which does not seem to change the installed RPM packages (also attached to the command "rpm - qa |") ("grep ^ nor"). But the problem persisted. Previously we tried to uninstall/install with no luck. I looked around the forum and saw this message appear elsewhere, but without a solution to this particular problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Note: I work in a closed area and have to trace output as those attached files. If the output of niSystemReport would be useful, please let me know what I could grep for :-)

  Kemens thanks for the reply and pointing me to the form of discussion. A brief tutorial, using NI-VISA with Arch Linux (or Ubuntu 14.04), which breaks down some of the install steps and highlights of the things to look for is more useful to this Council.

  The issue was the process OR native (nipple, nipxirmu, nisvcloc, etc.) do not bind to the boot. When the box is restarted, these processes are not running which causes the application to abort (during the first call of service VISA). Once they started, everything went well.

  There is a workaround for this problem/solution hackaround. See the doc attached for instructions with an example for the nipxirmu.

• Error in the launch of TES Oblivion. It reads: failed to initialize renderer. NiXAdapterDesc::GetDeviceCaps () failed.

  Here's the thing.

  I had just recently completely reinstall Vista on my Dell Inspiron 1521 because recently there KSoD was (BlacK S Of Death creen). I was told that I also had to reinstall my Drivers and Utilities. I had Windows running after that I reinstalled Vista (finally able to reach the screen connection.) and then tried to install The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, I got some kind of error message during installation and when I clicked okay, it shut out of the whole thing. So, I took my friends advice and jumped into the CD Drivers and Utilities that came with my Dell. I extracted, unpacked and installed all the drivers available on the menu (except those who say such as Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile on them, I don't think that those who are very important, so I only did those those.). After that I did, so I took another slap at reinstalled Oblivion. This time, he actually completed the installation. I was so excited, I clicked on the logo of oblivion on my desk, and when this menu appeared with classical music (the one that offers you the options game, Options, data files, Technical Support, etc.) I clicked Play and then the black window appears as if its going to work and then just stops and this error message is displayed: failed to initialize renderer. NiXAdapaterDesc::GetDeviceCaps() failed. Then everything closes, I tried several times and got the same results each time.

  The main reason I'm being so complete in this regard is to let you know EXACTLY what I could probably help find the problem. Another thing... I'm absolutely stupid with computers, I tried Googling the error message and I found sites where people have had the same problem but they have started talking about all this driver stuff I didn't understand even remotely. I have NO Internet on my computer, unless there is a way to disconnect a cable from my PC at home and connect it to my laptop so it won't be (could this work? If so which cable I have unplug my pc at home and my laptop? Never tried it before.). So I ask, if anyone out there who is willing to help has the answer to my problem, could you tell me how to solve this problem, as if you were talking to a 6 year old? That or just make so that even the dumbest, most computer-illiteriate person could understand. I know almost nothing about all this stuff of pilot. When I reinstalled the drivers on my pc I just follow the instructions step by step that my friend gave me, but had next to no knowledge of what exactly I was doing.

  EDIT: I played oblivion on my PC countless times before KSoD would have on me without any problems at all except that it could be a bit of lag... That's all. It has completely worked until I got the black screen of death on my Dell Inspiron 1521 and had to reinstall vista and all the drivers.

  Hello DJS4400,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.
   
  GetDeviceCaps() is a DirectX routine call made by the game engine for you check the details of the video card, what it is capable of supporting, and after that the game engine make certain decisions about what all the things to initialize for her. If that is a failure, it means that the game engine is not able to read your video card correctly.
  Most likely, this would be a problem with the drivers and of course, could be a problem with the card itself.

  Try running another game and see if it works. If it isn't, definity your drivers need a second look. If it does, this means, oblivion has a problem with the drivers you are using, or else they have not been installed correctly.

  I would first try:

  Click Start-> then type ' Device Manager "in the field of research-> game controller, select device-> next Manager, select sound and video-> This will drop your card-> with the right button on the map and you should have an option to update the drivers."  Once you repeat this test.

  If still no luck, right click again on the map and select Uninstall (you may have to restart after that) and then return to the driver and reinstall.   In most cases if you need to reboot, when your computer starts it will try updating the driver automatically from the site.

  Please let us know status.  Thank you!

• It's what I get everytime I try to search using the box on the start menu search failed to initialize.

  It's what I have whenever I try to use the box of departure/Chantal search failed to initialize.  The research won't do anything except say failure to initialize.  I tried to "msconfig", but nothing happens.  Is there another way to get around this?

• Halo 2 "failed to initialize."

  When I run Halo 2, I get this:

  LIVE gaming on Windows failed to initialize. Maybe it's because an another LIVE Gaming on Windows application (for example the dedicated server Halo 2) is running on the same computer. Otherwise, reinstall the game may fix this problem.

  My system:

  Windows 7 Home Premium
  HP g60 laptop
  Pentium Dual-Core processor T4400 2.20 GHz
  4.00 GB
  64-bit operating system

  I see a lot of ideas but WITHOUT DIFFICULTY. I did the:

  net stop cryptsvc

  Rename: c: / windows/system32/catroot2
  to: cr2old

  net start cryptsvc

  And it works not ONCE! Then every time you have to re do it. All the PATCHES?

  Thank you and Merry Christmas

  Hi all

  I fixed it. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/976264 ALIAS:

  Update of application compatibility for Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2: February 2010

  Note: will NOT work if you DOWNLOAD it! I tried a week ago. When I run it, it says: "search for updates". or something like that and then said: this will not work on this operating system. (Whatever).

  If you RUN it from the window of download, it will run sucssesfully Be aware that it will not tell you he had run, he won't tell you anything. I restarted my computer and then ran Halo 2 and it worked thought that it took a little longer for Halo 2 to go. Given that I always do not trust in it, I have completely closed and restarted. It still works.
