  • How do I know when all users leave a room using the server to Server API

    What should I subscribe to with the API server to server to receive a reminder when there is no user in a room, or when all users have left a coin. On the client, I am able to look connectSession.userManager.userCollection, but is it possible to subscribe to this side Server? Also, could you tell me the name of the node/collectionNode I should be signing up too?

    Hello

    Server-side, we have by default all codes that tell you whether all users have left. You have to build this logic in your server on your own code. You must first subscribe to the collection 'UserManager' as 'UserManager' is the name of the node collection UserManager.

    Once you do this, you will get always any article that appeared on this collection in your "receiveItem" hook function

    Now, whenever you get a point on the node called "UserList" to the title of this collection, it designates a user input or output or userDescriptor of some user has been changed.

    So from any element on UserList, you can build an accounting from the list of users on your code on the server side and every time you download an item, you can check if your bookkeeping list is empty or not, and if so, there is no user in this room.

    Do the same on the client side too (you can refer to the onItemReceive function in UserManager.as).

    Hope this fixes your problem

    Thank you

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - all user accounts have disappeared after the update of Windows...

    My Windows 7 Desktop is really watered.  After a Windows automatic update, none of the user accounts appear in the login window.  Only a generic connection where you will need to enter the user and the password are displayed.  And when I enter the user name and password, I get a message that they are not valid.

    Here are a few additional pieces of information:

    1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

    2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.  I don't know what happened to them that they do not appear on the screen of restore points.

    3. I can't log on to the computer at all, none of the accounts work.  I can get to a command prompt by using the repair disk, and I can see all the folders for the users.  So everything is intact.   Something must have happened to some system files and thus connect is not possible.

    4. users appear in the list of profiles in the registry.

    5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

    6. I tried sfc/scannow, but I get an error "already waiting.

    7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

    I tried searching online and I'm still not able to connect to the computer.  It has been 2 days of downtime.  What happened to my old restore points?  And why doesn't my restore points created by the work of windows update?

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    ->, I guess you have done this so that in the WRE (repair Windows environment). It is a ghost environment that disappears that you restart the system. Drive X: is a virtual, not a real disc.

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    -> Many people are unaware of the need for regular backups (for example, weekly) until they are suffering from a major disaster.

    Suggestions

    Going by your description, I suspect that your existing accounts are irreparable. They need to be rebuilt. User data appear to be safe.

    Option 1. Use the console commands then in WRE to save all the files of the user on an external hard drive. A disk 2.5 "500 GB in a USB enclosure costs less than $60,00. After having tested the files on another machine, perform a destructive factory restore.

    Option 2. Start the computer with a boot of Ubuntu CD, then its GUI allows to save files to the user. It takes time to burn such a CD, but the copy process is easier. When you're done, do a factory restore.

    Option 3. A somewhat complex process allows you to create a new admin account, and then use this account to create new user accounts. You must then manually configure each of them (for example Outlook) and move their records of the old data to the new profile folders.

    There is also a method to restore old files registry of a set of backup files are a few days old. In your case I wouldn't consider as it would create a disjoint system: the registry files refers to a set of files that have been largely modified by the update.

    Post again if you need more detailed instructions for the option that you favor.

  • How to configure the calendar to change default user of the connection?

    It is not possible to schedule a task to connect to the user account. As you mentioned you need to do some maintenance tasks, you can create tasks to perform these maintenance tasks automatically.

  • How to change the permission to touch the key settings for all users?

    Original title: Howsto permission change to change the touchpad settings

    Members of the Forum,

    My windows7 OS is implemented for several different users.  The touchpad is very sensitive, it is difficult to work with EXCEL or WORD.  Whenever possible, I use a USB keyboard and mouse, but it's not always convenient.  I would like to change the permissions on the mouse settings to allow all users to disable or customize the touch pad settings.  How did you do that.  Any assistance is much appreciated.

    Lemorse

    Mahesh,

    Thank you for your response.  First of all to answer your questions.  I do not work in a domain environment, my computer is custom built, and I am the administrator.  I changed the touchpad settings in the past, but it I need to make on behalf of users administrator when I want to change. As it's boring, I wanted a more convenient way to change the settings. (It was much easier with XP and previous editions of Windows because they would ask permission to make the change and if you have the administrator password, you can change the settings).  I usually work as a user limited to guard against unauthorized or accidental system changes.  After posting my question, I kept sleeping with her and found that if I changed the permissions of pilot pad touch and shared with me as a limited user, I was able to customize I like it as a limited user.  By placing the shortcut to the driver on the desktop that I am able to disable the touchpad at will whenever I work on WORD or EXCEL.  Therefore, I solved the problem.  Once again thank you for taking your valuable time to answer my post.

  • taskSvc.reassignTask () API give do not permissions on the task to all users also.

    Hello

    JDeveloper/SOA/BPM 11.1.1.7

    WebLogic 10.3.6


    I am programmatically reassign a task (which is by default assigned to a group) to a set of users using the following API.


    taskSvc.reassignTask (ctx, task, newTaskAssignees);


    The 'newTaskAssignees' is built for a set of users by ITaskAssignee objects of Type user.


    User ITaskAssignee = new TaskAssignee (user, IWorkflowConstants.IDENTITY_TYPE_USER);

    NewTaskAssignees list < ITaskAssignee > = new Arrayist <ITaskAssignee< ();


    The controllers are usually the current user and other users.

    After the 'reassignTask()' method is called, the task is assigned to all users successfully.


    But the problem is not that all users get the privileges on the task all too.

    Only the current user is able to perform all actions on the task (as redirect, approve, reject etc.)

    All other users do not receive these actions when also looked into the workspace of BPM for this task.


    I tried the following.


    Manually 'release' the task of the BPM workspace by logging in as a user with original permissions.

    After that all other controllers task get all actions.


    Obviously, the task is "acquired" by the current user who is logged in when the API 'reassignTask()' is called.


    So, I tried to call the 'releaseTask()' method after calling the reassignTask() method.

    But when I call the releaseTask() method gives the following exception


    Exception: Action RELEASE task '< taskId >' cannot run the user "abcd".


    I also tried to question the freshly task using the "querySvc.getTaskDetailsById ()" after the call to the reassignTask() method.

    But still get the same exception


    Is there something I'm missing here?


    Thanks for any help.

    Sameer

    This problem is solved.

    In fact, after the output of the task the payload is updated again, which was originally the task that needs to be acquired by the user, and therefore no one else could not perform any other operations on the task.

    So after the task he must be released again.

    Here are a few points we should remember when you work with the BPM API as above.

    1. always question the task using getTaskDetailsById() or getTaskDetailsByNumber() before any operation on it. If it is updated in the meantime, the operation may fail.

    2. after the execution of the operation on the task, we need to release him if we want other assignees to be able to work on the task.

    3. If he is assigned to multiple users or groups, better is worth to acquire the task before calling top transactions.

    4. of course no other operations or payloads updates are performed which may cause the task to acquire automatically.

    • Bug 1144127 - Remove support for distribution/bundles (39 +)

    For language packs, see:

    A file to mozilla.cfg in the Firefox program folder can be used to lock the prefs or specify new values (default).

    A file local - settings.js must be placed in the folder "by default/pref" also the file prefs.js - channel where to specify using mozilla.cfg.

    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");

  • Unique firefox profile all users and profiles on networks

    I am trying to configure Firefox like standard browser for an entire building, and this framework is to ensure that all firefox profiles are registered readers personal network rather than local machines. I can use the Profile Manager to do this on a user base, but what happens if I want that all users of any machine, using the same firefox profile that points to a specific network drive? (This will ensure users always have their browser settings and no matter where they go, allow us to move outside machines without losing all the browser settings, etc..) The contents of this drive is specific to the user account, but still have the same way.)

    As far as I know, the profiles created in the Profile Manager are specific to each user (domain), which would mean a lot of creating manual profile. Is it possible to ensure that Firefox always uses a specific profile of Firefox or the path? Is it possible to have the control of firefox profiles exist (in a .bat file, for example), so I can create the appropriate injector if necessary? Can I use a command line to set the profile to be used by default, or that can be done from the GUI Profile Manager?

    Finally and this can justify a separate query, but I found that when you use profiles that link to a network drive, trying to open firefox on multiple computers will fail (another instance of firefox is open, close it or restart). I can tell Firefox to force the old instance closed, or I have to firefox.exe - no-remote 'differentProfile' Pei each time?

    We are on Windows 7, moreover, for the sake of references.

    Sort of. I don't always have a perfect method to check the presence of a profile, but as a solution, I'm looking in the drive location of my custom profile for prefs.js Server (IF EXISTS 'path\path\Firefox\prefs.js' (thing do)), and that will at least tell me if I have created something here or not.
