  • In Outlook 2013, the reading pane does not display images correctly for most emails (but does for some)

    - by smoldyr
    I am running Microsoft Office Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 Enterprise. When I click on an email in the list of messages, the preview of the message in the reading pane usually will not show the images contained in the email, but instead will show a red 'X'. Sometimes this red 'X' is followed by the text "The linked image cannot be displayed. The file may have been moved, renmaed, or deleted. Verify that the link points to the correct file and location." I am using an IMAP email account. The really strange thing is that for some emails, the images will display, although they take a long time to load. How can I make the images show up in the reading pane?

  • How to install GRUB command-line tools on OSX?

    - by beakr
    I need access to grub-mkrescue for a project I'm working on. I know that the GRUB command-line tools come builtin to Linux, but how do I get them on OSX? Is there a package? Is it built into the system somewhere? Is there an installer? CLARIFICATION: The question is not about installing GRUB as a bootloader on the Mac. The question is about installing the GRUB command line tools to do things like create bootable disk images of other operating systems.

  • Norton Ghost usage, Linux? ISO? Server? MBR?

    - by OverTheRainbow
    Before evaluating Symantec/Norton Ghost to image partitions, I have a couple of questions about using this tool: In the product page, it only mentions Windows: Can Norton image Linux partitions as well? Can I burn an ISO to create/recover images? The ISO's I found seem only able to restore an image but not create one. Does it mean that images can only be created from within a running Windows? For Windows partitions: Does it support both regular and Server versions? Acronis doesn't image Server partitions in the regular version When restoring an image, does Norton give the option of including/excluding the MBR? Thank you.

  • SQL SERVER – Merge Two Columns into a Single Column

    - by Pinal Dave
    Here is a question which I have received from user yesterday. Hi Pinal, I want to build queries in SQL server that merge two columns of the table If I have two columns like, Column1 | Column2 1                5 2                6 3                7 4                8 I want to output like, Column1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 It is a good question. Here is how we can do achieve the task. I am making the assumption that both the columns have different data and there is no duplicate. USE TempDB GO CREATE TABLE TestTable (Col1 INT, Col2 INT) GO INSERT INTO TestTable (Col1, Col2) SELECT 1, 5 UNION ALL SELECT 2, 6 UNION ALL SELECT 3, 7 UNION ALL SELECT 4, 8 GO SELECT Col1 FROM TestTable UNION SELECT Col2 FROM TestTable GO DROP TABLE TestTable GO Here is the original table. Here is the result table. Reference: Pinal Dave (http://blog.sqlauthority.com)Filed under: PostADay, SQL, SQL Authority, SQL Query, SQL Server, SQL Tips and Tricks, T SQL

  • Oracle 12cR1 : Evaluación "What-If" de un comando crsctl con Oracle Clusterware

    - by grantunez-Oracle
    Oracle en su nueva version 12cR1 introdujo una nueva y pequeña característica  al Oracle Clusterware, pero el que sea pequeña, no significa que no sea de gran utilidad. En versiones anteriores, si queríamos saber que iba a pasar al ejecutar un comando con la herramienta crsctl, teníamos que hacerlo en un ambiente de pruebas, ya que si no sabíamos de que se trataba el comando, se convertía en algo muy peligroso hacerlo sobre producción. En Oracle Clusterware 12cR1 se introduce la evaluación de comando tipo "What-If" en la herramienta mencionada anteriormente, crsctl eval, que lo que nos permite es ver , que va a suceder si ejecuta el comando, sin que realmente se ejecute el comando. Primero vamos a ver que recursos tenemos arriba  [oracle@oel6-112-rac1 ~]$ crsctl stat res -t--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name           Target  State        Server                   State details       --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Local Resources--------------------------------------------------------------------------------ora.ASMNET1LSNR_ASM.lsnr               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.DATA.dg               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.LISTENER.lsnr               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.net1.network               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.ons               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.proxy_advm               ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE               ONLINE  OFFLINE      oel6-112-rac2            CLEANINGora.LISTENER_SCAN1.lsnr      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.LISTENER_SCAN2.lsnr      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.LISTENER_SCAN3.lsnr      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.MGMTLSNR      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            169.254.247.50 192.1                                                             68.1.111,STABLEora.asm      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE      2        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLE      3        OFFLINE OFFLINE                               STABLEora.cvu      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.gns      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.gns.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.mgmtdb      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            Open,STABLEora.oc4j      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.oel6-112-rac1.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.oel6-112-rac2.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.orcl.db      1        OFFLINE OFFLINE      oel6-112-rac2            Instance Shutdown,STABLE       2        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            Open,STABLEora.scan1.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac2            STABLEora.scan2.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLEora.scan3.vip      1        ONLINE  ONLINE       oel6-112-rac1            STABLE Ahora lo que vamos a hacer , es evaluar que pasaría, si por ejemplo, el recurso de ASM llegara a fallar en nuestro nodo [oracle@oel6-112-rac1 ~]$ crsctl eval fail resource ora.asm Stage Group 1: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage Number Required Action --------------------------------------------------------------------------------      1    N Create new group (Stage Group = 2)    Y Resource 'ora.asm' (1/1) will be in state [ONLINE|INTERMEDIATE] on server [oel6-112-rac1]    Y Resource 'ora.asm' (2/1) will be in state [ONLINE|INTERMEDIATE] on server [oel6-112-rac2] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage Group 2: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage Number Required Action --------------------------------------------------------------------------------      1    N Resource 'ora.proxy_advm' (oel6-112-rac2) will be in state [ONLINE|INTERMEDIATE] on server [oel6-112-rac2] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Como vamos a ver a continuación, no es lo mismo se decidiéramos detener el recurso, en este caso tenemos que forzarlo , ya que es un recurso que no se puede detener sin la opción "-f":  [oracle@oel6-112-rac1 ~]$ crsctl eval stop resource ora.asm Stage Group 1: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage Number Required Action --------------------------------------------------------------------------------      1    N Error code [222] for entity [ora.asm].

  • A Few Words from Oracle’s Channel Chief

    - by Meghan Fritz-Oracle
    As Oracle enters a new fiscal year, I want to take a moment and reflect on my time at Oracle thus far. The technology industry is currently at an inflection point trying to figure out where growth will come from. When you look at Oracle’s portfolio of products, it's a complete stack from applications to disc, offering differentiation in the marketplace. I was initially drawn to Oracle’s leadership, strategy, and world-class technology. Since joining the Oracle team in October 2013, I’ve had the privilege of traveling around the globe visiting our partners and customers, and wanted to share several common themes that came up during these meetings. Cloud: Many partners are trying to figure out how to build a business around the cloud. Oracle partners can currently resell or refer our cloud services. We saw over 300 percent growth from cloud resale last quarter. Engineered Systems: Hardware and software integrated together to simplify IT allows our joint customers to focus on the innovation they need to compete in a complex marketplace. We're seeing great success in a several areas, with more partners saying, “Let’s start with Oracle on Oracle.” The Internet of Things: This is the next big opportunity for device manufacturers and ISV‘s to capture market share in what is projected to be a mulit-trillion-dollar opportunity, according to Gartner.  Competition: We've got a tremendous middleware platform and a tremendous database install base. We’re not just a database company; we are a complete provider. So looking ahead, what are my priorities for fiscal 2015? Oracle PartnerNetwork has some very exciting plans on the horizon. There’s a lot more leadership and announcements to unfold, especially at this year’s Global Partner Kickoff taking place on June 25 + 26 depending on your region and time zone. I along with several other Oracle executives will be shedding light on Oracle’s strategy for the upcoming year, the latest opportunities within the OPN Specialized Program and sales strategies that will help you to continue to grow and profit with Oracle. Stay tuned for registration information next week.We also have Oracle OpenWorld and JavaOne to look forward to. These conferences are taking place in San Francisco from September 28 – October 2. We’ll have a variety of partner-specific activities for you at OPN Central @ OpenWorld including the OPN keynote, the famed AfterDark networking reception, access to the OPN Lounge and more.In the meantime, I hope that everyone has a great end to fiscal 2014.Best regards,Rich Geraffo Senior Vice President, Worldwide Alliances and Channels

  • Write a program using 3 threads, one prints 10 'A's and the second prints 'B's and the third prints 10 'C's with synchrornization

  • Image caching when rendering the same images on different pages

    - by HelpNeeder
    I'm told to think about caching of images that will be displayed on the page. The images will be repeated throughout the website on different pages and I'm told to figure out the best way to cache these images. There could be few to dozen of images on single page. Here's few questions: Will browser caching work to display the same images across different web pages? Should I rather store images in stringified form in a memory instead, using JavaScript arrays? Store them on hard drive using 'localStorage'? What would be easiest yet best option for this? Are there any other alternatives? How to force cache? Any other information would be greatly appreciated...

  • Common mistakes made by new programmers without CS backgrounds [on hold]

    - by mblinn
    I've noticed that there seems to be a class of mistakes that new programmers without CS backgrounds tend to make, that programmers with CS backgrounds tend not to. I'm not talking about not understanding source control, or how to design large programs, or a whole host of other things that both freshly minted CS graduates and non-CS graduates tend to not understand, I'm talking about basic mistakes that having a CS background will prevent a programmer from making. One obvious and well trod example is that folks who don't have a basic understanding of formal languages will often try to parse arbitrary HTML or XML using regular expressions, and possibly summon Cthulu in the process. Another fairly common one that I've seen is using common data structures in suboptimal ways like using a vector and a search function as if it were a hash map. What sorts of other things along these lines would you look out for when on-boarding a batch of newly minted, non-CS programmers.

  • Algorithm to match timestamped events from two sources

    - by urza.cc
    I have two different physical devices (one is camera, one is other device) that observe the same scene and mark when a specified event occures. (record timestamp) So they each produce a serie of timestamps "when the event was observed". Theoretically the recorded timestamps should be very well aligned: Visualized ideal situation on two time lines "s" and "r" as recorded from the two devices: but more likely they will not be so nicely aligned and there might be missing events from timeline s or r: I am looking for algorithm to match events from "s" and "r" like this: So that the result will be something like: (s1,null); (s2,r1); (s3,null); (s4,r2); (s5,r3); (null,r4); (s6,r5); Or something similar. Maybe with some "confidence" rating. I have some ideas, but I feel that this might be probably a well known problem, that has some good known solutions, but I don't know the right terminology. I am a little bit out of my element here, this is not my primary area of programming.. Any helps, suggestions etc will be appreciated.

  • "Default approach" when creating a class from scratch: getters for everything, or limited access?

    - by Prog
    Until recently I always had getters (and sometimes setters but not always) for all the fields in my class. It was my 'default': very automatic and I never doubted it. However recently some discussions on this site made me realize maybe it's not the best approach. When you create a class, you often don't know exactly how it's going to be used in the future by other classes. So in that sense, it's good to have getters and setter for all of the fields in the class. So other classes could use it in the future any way they want. Allowing this flexibility doesn't require you to over engineer anything, only to provide getters. However some would say it's better to limit the access to a class, and only allow access to certain fields, while other fields stay completely private. What is your 'default' approach when building a class from scratch? Do you make getters for all the fields? Or do you always choose selectively which fields to expose through a getter and which to keep completely private?

  • Is is OK to use a non-primary key as the id in a rails resource?

    - by nPn
    I am getting ready to set up a resource for some new api calls to my rails application. I am planning on calling the resource devices ie resources :devices This is going to represent a android mobile devices I know this will get me routes such as GET devices/:id In most cases :id would be an integer representing the primary key, and in the controller we would use :id as such: GET devices/1 @device = Device.find(params[:id]) In this case I would like to use :id as the google_cloud_messaging_reg_id So I would like to have requests like this: GET devices/some_long_gcm_id and then in the controller , just us params[:id] to look up the device by the gcm registration id. This seem more natural, since the device will know it's gcm id rather than it's rails integer id. Are there any reasons I should avoid doing this?

  • Dalvik + Java licensing question

    - by Andrew Bate
    This is a licensing question about the Dalvik and J2SE core libraries. In particular the license governing java.util.concurrent.SynchronousQueue. The license header of the class in the JDK source states that it is GPLv2 only (see grepcode). However, the same file in the Dalvik core libraries seems to be governed by the Apache 2 license only (see android source). How is this possible? I didn't think you could take GPLv2 source and re-license it as Apache 2. (It's obvious they did: a comment above the Java Doc even says "removed link to collections framework docs"!) I'm asking because I have a GPLv3 project and would like to include a derivative work of some source from the core libraries (either Dalvik or J2SE) but publish it under GPLv3. I thought I could do this with Apache 2, but not GPLv2. I know that the J2SE class source is itself derivative work from public domain source, but the changes from the original are substantial. (The original is available at gee.cs.oswego.edu if you are interested.) Therefore the android source really is just a copy of the J2SE source, but published under Apache 2 instead of GPLv2. Is Google really allowed to do this?

  • What are the benefits of Android way of "saving memory" - explicitly passing Context objects everywhere?

    - by Sarge Borsch
    Turned out, this question is not easy to formulate for me, but let's try. In Android, pretty much any UI object depends on a Context, and has defined lifetime. It also can destroy and recreate UI objects and even whole application process at any time, and so on. This makes coding asynchronous operations correctly not straightforward. (and sometimes very cumbersome) But I never have seen a real explanation, why it's done that way? There are other OSes, including mobile OSes (iOS, for example), that don't do such things. So, what are the wins of Android way (Activities & Contexts)? Does that allow Android applications to use much less RAM, or maybe there are other benefits?

  • Concrete examples of Python's "only one way to do it" maxim

    - by Charles Roper
    I am learning Python and am intrigued by the following point in PEP 20 The Zen of Python: There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it. Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch. Could anyone offer any concrete examples of this maxim? I am particularly interested in the contrast to other languages such as Ruby. Part of the Ruby design philosophy (originating with Perl, I think?) is that multiple ways of doing it is A Good Thing. Can anyone offer some examples showing the pros and cons of each approach. Note, I'm not after an answer to which is better (which is probably too subjective to ever be answered), but rather an unbiased comparison of the two styles.

  • Error installing avogadro with CMake 'lconvert: could not exec No such file or directory'

    - by Orr22
    I'm brand new in ubuntu. I'm trying to install Avogadro. The program need the following packages, which I could install: CMake - OpenBabel 2.3.2 - Qt4 - Git - Eigen2. Here it is the recepy to install the : cd $HOME/src git clone git://github.com/cryos/avogadro.git mkdir -p $HOME/build/avogadro cd $HOME/build/avogadro cmake $HOME/src/avogadro make -j2 sudo make install It was unable to compile, but when I skipped the 'git clone' step it seemed to work just fine. After several stops during the CMake compiling process (software actualizations, get Doxygen, get flex, get bison) I was able to compile. But when I introduce the 'make -j2' command the installation stops as follows: Orr22@javi-87:~/build_avogadro$ make -j2 [ 0%] Built target elementcolor [ 0%] Built target bsdyengine [ 2%] Built target spglib [ 3%] Built target navigatetool [ 4%] Built target tubegen [ 4%] Generating libavogadro_hu.qm [ 6%] Built target OpenQube [ 6%] Generating moc_animation.cxx lconvert: could not exec '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/lconvert': No such file or directory make[2]: *** [libavogadro/src/libavogadro_hu.qm] Error 1 make[2]: *** Se espera a que terminen otras tareas.... make[1]: *** [libavogadro/src/CMakeFiles/avogadro.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 Any suggestions to proceed?

I want Ubuntu because of the Software center so I can install things I want until I am familiar with the command line.. I've worked on Computers since I was 12 I remember some of the DOS commands but I guess these are a little different... anyway any ideas? Ive also tried both drivers for the NVIDA card and that didn't help either... its not the card since it did this with both the NVIDA card and the SIS onboard... it also does this on live mode with the USB so I don't think its the HardDrive... I'm running out of options of hardware to try... I know this version of Linux works cuz Ive booted it on other machines and it ran great... what is with this Compaq? here is a vid of exactly what its doing... let me know if you need anything else I am right by the comptuer tonight so ask anything... http://youtu.be/-P-XNo81098

  • 14.04 missing "/etc/init.d/ufw"? my firewall never auto starts

    - by Aquarius Power
    I need to know how to fix the missing "/etc/init.d/ufw" file, is it some package or some command? I used the gufw to enable it, but on reboot my firewall was still off... I created a symlink /etc/init.d/ufw -> /lib/init/upstart-job but I could not make it work like start ufw. I found this file /lib/ufw/ufw-init, it looks like a init.d file! can I copy or symlink it there? Additional (optional) questions: How to find what package has that file? apt-cache search didnt work.. Can we safely create such a script? Any idea why is it missing? Obs.: my /etc/ufw/ufw.conf has ENABLED=yes (but seems useless..)

  • HFS+/How to convert an XFS file system to HFS+ [on hold]

    - by user219350
    I have repeatedly convinced of the reliability of the XFS file system , and I was more than satisfied . I was happy with everything in Ubuntu 14.04 ( great software) , but there is a little "but ! " Basically, I work on OSX-Mavericks 10.9.3, which sees very Windows 8.1 and works wonders with NTFS, but Ubuntu does not see! Briefly describe the equipment: ASRock B75 Pro3-M i5 3330 GeForce GTX 650 Ti SATA 500GB running OS X Mavericks + Clover - a boot disk Toshiba 2TB running Windows 8.1 (x64) and Ubuntu 14.04 (amd64) If you boot from the Toshiba (where there is Ubuntu and boot Windows + GRAB) after restart boot from Clover, it is impossible. Tried a lot of options - as Clover installation and boot priority, and various settings Grab, but have not found an acceptable option and reinstall again Clover - no desire ( Mavericks 20 seconds reboots - excellent !) So please help on the file system - how to convert to XFS HFS + magazine . Mavericks to saw it all synced on Mac . Thank you for the sensible answer and help! Originally in Russian.

  • .wine-pipelight folder not present

    - by DaimyoKirby
    Following the instructions on the pipelight installation page, I installed pipelight on Ubuntu 14.04. However, upon opening firefox the .wine-pipelight folder isn't present in my home folder, and I get the following errors: [PIPELIGHT:LIN:unknown] attached to process. [PIPELIGHT:LIN:unknown] checking environment variable PIPELIGHT_SILVERLIGHT5_1_CONFIG. [PIPELIGHT:LIN:unknown] searching for config file pipelight-silverlight5.1. [PIPELIGHT:LIN:unknown] trying to load config file from '/home/alden/.config/pipelight-silverlight5.1'.

[PIPELIGHT:LIN:silverlight5.1] basicplugin.c:108:attach(): plugin not correctly installed - aborting. I've reinstalled quite a few times and ran through many of the common fixes offered on the pipelight Launchpad pages and here on AskUbunta and still it fails to run. Is there a reason why this folder isn't present, or why I'm getting these errors? Edit: Oddly enough, the .wine-pipelight folder is created wtih I open Nitro, although this still doesn't fix the issue.

  • List all versions of a package

    - by askb
    Is there a equivalent of this command; yum list kernel-headers --showduplicates on Ubuntu with apt-get, apt-cache etc. The above command lists various versions of the kernel-headers rpm available on F20/RHEL or installations. Closet I can get using apt-cache showpkg, not sure if there is a better way ? $ apt-cache showpkg linux-image Package: linux-image Versions: Reverse Depends: firmware-crystalhd,linux-image systemtap,linux-image fiaif,linux-image Dependencies: Provides: Reverse Provides: linux-image-3.13.0-27-lowlatency 3.13.0-27.50 linux-image-3.13.0-27-generic 3.13.0-27.50 linux-image-3.13.0-24-lowlatency 3.13.0-24.47 linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic 3.13.0-24.47 linux-image-3.13.0-24-lowlatency 3.13.0-24.46 linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic 3.13.0-24.46 Expecting similar output: $ yum list kernel-headers --showduplicates Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit Installed Packages kernel-headers.x86_64 3.11.10-301.fc20 @fedora Available Packages kernel-headers.x86_64 3.11.10-301.fc20 fedora kernel-headers.x86_64 3.14.4-200.fc20 updates This would help me simply do a downgrade or upgrade to a specific version.
