• Why Oracle ManagedDataAccess (4.121.1.0) throws a System.FormatException "first chance" exception to the debugger when you use OracleCommand.BindByName (on some machines, but not others)?

  Why Oracle ManagedDataAccess (4.121.1.0) throws a System.FormatException "first chance" exception to the debugger when you use OracleCommand.BindByName (on some machines, but not others)?

  This occurs when calling a ref cursor-returning packaged function stored with OracleCommand.BindByName set to true.

  When BindByName undefined, it works as expected.

  I've only been able to recreate this problem on a machine in my control. This issue has also reported to me by a customer.

  I tried to change the locale of the system of EN - UK EN-US, but I was not aware of any change in behavior.

  Similarly, I've tried explicitly overriding the default locale of the system with the OracleGlobalization parameters, and it also had no effect.

  Please see the example below.

  Thanks a lot to qualify again for me Alex.  I'll try upgrading to the latest version of the provider.

  The difference in behavior between the two hosts was found to be reduced to differences in configuration VS.

  Checking 'Just my code' prevents the first chance thrown in the debugger exception. As in fact, the exception is handled in the provider, it is enough for me.

  mkuholr,
  When you say that you "tried other cd rom" do you mean you replaced the drive to CD or just tried another disc?  If you haven't tried another drive and it's something that you are able to do, I would say that.  It is possible that it could be hardware related.

• Why did datasocket works on some of the computers in a windows 2000 network, but not others?

  I use an executable program of labview which write Boolean arrays on multiple computers in a network and their bed on a computer 'server '.  All the client computers are running windows 2000 with the labview run time engine 8.6.  The server computer is running windows 2000 with the labview 8.6 developers edition.  I can only contact between a client computer and the server computer.  Communication will work either way between these two computers.  Either the computer can sucessfully read or write data datasocket.  Other computers cannot communicate in both directions.  All the computers are on the same network in the same workgroup and can see through the network.  It doesn't seem to be a firewall on all computers.  Suggestions?

• Firefox saves some passwords, but not others

  It won't save my password for mail.yahoo.com but stores all my other passwords. I entered NOTHING in the Exceptions box under Security > passwords, and no. Yahoo entered any there in the section registered passwords.

  I tried to restart all and clear all cache and user data.

  The Web of Yahoo site uses autocomplete = off to prevent registration of data in form as the name and password of Firefox.

  You can remove autocomplete = off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox to store data of form such as names and passwords.

• Why do AS3 highlighting some fonts, but not others (which are quite common)?

  Hi all!

  I have a simple question that hopefully has a simple answer (which mocks me with his elusive). In the code below (from "University of Programming ActionScript 3.0 Game" of Gary Rosenzweig (2nd ed.)), I declare a style sheet simple using AS3 supported all the tags/attributes to emphasize a HTML link. My question is this: why AS3 don't highlight the chosen font (Arial), but still it will highlight some other fonts I have to substitute (such as "Times New Roman" and "Garamond")?

  // create a basic format
  var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
  myFormat.font = "Arial";
  myFormat.size = 24;
  myFormat.bold = true;
  var myStyleSheet:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
  myStyleSheet.setStyle("A",{textDecoration: "underline", color: "#0000FF"});
  // create a text field with a Web URL link
  var myWebLink:TextField = new TextField();
  myWebLink.defaultTextFormat = myFormat;
  myWebLink.styleSheet = myStyleSheet;
  myWebLink.selectable = false;
  myWebLink.htmlText = "Visit <A HREF='http://flashgameu.com'>FlashGameU.com</A>!";
  myWebLink.x = 80;
  myWebLink.y = 90;
  myWebLink.width = 400;
  myWebLink.height = 30;
  addChild(myWebLink);
  var myLink:TextField = new TextField();
  myLink.defaultTextFormat = myFormat;
  myLink.styleSheet = myStyleSheet;
  myLink.selectable = false;
  myLink.htmlText = "Click <A HREF='event:testing'>here</A>";
  myLink.x = 80;
  myLink.y = 190;
  myLink.width = 400;
  myLink.height = 30;
  addChild(myLink);
  addEventListener(TextEvent.LINK, textLinkClick);
  function textLinkClick(event:TextEvent) {
   trace(event.text);
  }
  

  The underscore is here, that you're not just allowing sufficient height for the textfield object to show him.  TNR is a shorter police to the same font size, he manages to appear in 30 height.

• Is it possible to NAT some nodes, but not others?

  Basically, I want to give a public IP address to one of our nodes inside the firewall. I know I could give him a private address and NAT from the public to the private sector, but I want to give the node address and no NAT at all and keep all the benefits of a firewall. It is a PIX 501.

  Let me know if it is still possible.

  Thank you

  O

  Howdy,

  You can certainly. Use the following command to do this:

  NAT (inside) - 0 access list

  Then, create an ACL with the addresses that you do not want to be NAT'ed:

  10.1.2.0 ip access list allow 255.255.255.0 any

  Hope that help - rate pls post if it does.

• Application of air using URLLoader w/HTTPS fails on some Win7 computers, but not others

  We have an Air (SDK 4.5) application, we are ready to deploy, but fails to connect via the HTTPS URL with error #2032 on some Win7 computers, but not others.

  For troubleshooting, I can reproduce the problem by using the example of app simple test given in the AS3 URLLoader documentaton.

  The problem is that when you run the application on some Win7 boxes, trying to connect to various servers via https and download a simple document, the request fails with "Error #2032".

  The version of the Air runtime is 3.0, and we have updated to 3.1 with the same result. The problem is related to the HTTPS only: the same URLS work fine with HTTP.

  Now for the fun: an application exact air works fine on another Win7 box, of the area of XP, OSX 10.6 and 10.7, pointing to the same URL HTTPS OSX.

  More fun: on Win7 boxes that in case of failure, it only fails with some https URL and not others, and URLS that fail with this Air app on these some win7 boxes work perfectly with the same air application on several others mentioned computers (XP, OSX and other win7).

  I know that #2032 Error is a very generic error "io" and could be the result of many things, but in this case, I did some research to isolate what could happen;

  on win7 boxes where the air application fails:

  If we point the air application on a virtual host on our setup of server apache with a self signed SSL certificate, the air application appears a sign saying the cert isn't trused, and if we click on 'continue', we get the error 2032 and a 0 http status code. Apache never logs on demand. This tells me that the application of air attempts to negotiate an SSL session with the apache server, but never succeeds.

  If we indicate the air even application a virtual host on the same configuration of Apache Web server with a REAL SSL cert, the air application never appears unreliable Panel, but still does not work, 2032 and the http status code returned 0.

  If we indicate the air even application a virtual host on the same server apache but HTTP instead of HTTPS, there is no failure and demand ends with an http 200 status code.

  Interestingly, if we note the same air application various other HTTPS URLS on different hosts, our servers and others on the internet that we know work, some fail the same way and some work very well.

  Now: If we run the same tests with the same air app, using the same URL HTTPS on other computers mentioned (XP, OSx and other win7), there is no failure and demand always ends well.

  Another finding: you could theorize that there is something wrong with those boxes of win7, but the HTTPS URLS that fail with the air app, nice job on these boxes in IE and Chrome, also the same test app compiled as a Flex application and executed in the browser on computers that fail to work fine with the same HTTPS URLS that fails and the application of air , for the air runtime of problems on some win7 boxes.

  It is a BIG problem for us, our Air application is a consumer application and will be widely deployed, and we cannot have it not be performed only on some computers and have no idea why.

  Any help would be apprechiated.

  Thank you

  PROBLEM SOLVED (mostly), however I end up with big problems in this...

  The problem was on the failure both Win7 boxes were sigficantly off the coast. Their synchronization solved the problem. I assume that others who have similar problems check the time on the computers/servers.

  This raises the question of why the AIR runtime cannot negotiate an SSL connection under this condition, but each browser we tested on those same computers could?

  I can buy that maybe the SSL protocol must by definition fail under these conditions, however for use by consumers, where it can not be controlled, the implementation must be loose to allow upward, and indeed all commercial browsers can negotiate SSL under these conditions connections (time synchronization offset) - ecommerce would be in trouble if consumers can probably not to connect to a service secured via Internet simply because the time is out of their computer.

  Can anyone in the Group Air address Adobe this concern on the use of AIR for applications of consumer under this condition where you can't rely on your application to install or run on who knows how many computers to consumers?  And to make things worse, AIR doesent provide revised, detailed error information so it is VERY tedious or impossible to even troubleshoot a comply with instructions like that--on the ground, it would be rather impossible.

  Thank you

• Computer connects to the network, but not to the Internet, connect to the only local

  Hello world

  OK, so I have a HP computer with the installed version of Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit. I've had it for almost 2 years now and have had no problems connecting to Internet... until now.

  I can connect to networks... both wireless and cable, but I can not get Internet. I used the IP, subnet mask, gateway and server settings DNS to another computer that works with this specific local network just to see what happens... my computer has failed.
  Until recently, I could connect to this WiFi connection in a coffee shop, but the last time I tried it didn't work. I've connected to the network but not the Internet. He told me that the DNS server did not. I'm starting to think that something is wrong with my computer.

  I saw that the solution for some people running the Norton removal tool, however I had uninstalled Norton almost as soon as I got my computer 2 years ago and ran McAfee instead. I don't think that Norton should have an impact on me more.

  Is there a solution to this problem... or I'll just have to try everything that is out there?

  Thanks for your help!

  Hi MomPlaysBass,

  Finally, my problem has been resolved - it wasn't my computer after all. The modem may only be connected to a computer. If you want to connect to another computer, you can connect the computer to the modem and then put it back. My computer worked fine after that. Whenever we want to switch between computers, even if I have to reset the modem.

  I don't think you have the same problem, but just in case, you can try to reset your modem - it's a button on the back or a small hole that you can reach with a pen... Hold the stylus for about 5 sec or maybe a bit more and then let go. That should reset your modem and might help you with your problem. Your computer should also have created a restore point... If all else fails maybe you can try to get back to the final point where your computer worked.

• I can connect to the local network, but not to the internet

  Why in an internet connection, I can connect to the Local network, but not to the Internet.
  I have valid IP address and configuration is good.

  I recommend you read some threads here in the forum about similar issues.
  If this problem occurs using the WiFi network, then check if you can use the connection to the local network.
  Using the WiFi network, you must check if the common WLan parameters are favourable;
  Check if the encryption key is right; turn off filtering by mac address, check the TCP/IP protocol settings if it has been set to automatic, disable the firewall settings, rest you WLan router, check if you connected to the right SSID.

  Good bye

• WRTG54S to connect to the network, but not internet

  I have a WRTG54S and Mediacom 12mbps. My router worked fine on my old laptop (a Dell Vista), he was sitting in a box for about 6 months and now that I have a new (Sony running 7) I can connect to my network, but not internet. I have updated the firmware of 7.6 to 7.8 without change. I have tried no security, wep and wap without change. Also, I cloned the MAC, once again no change. Windows cannot detect all problems, and when I try to activate the router to connect to the internet it always says connection failed. I can connect directly connected to the modem but not when connected to the router or wireless. Any ideas? Thank you
