Today having problems with the Excel file on a Windows 7 laptop. I worked with this file last night without any problems.
The file was saved on a network drive and during saving have not been received error.
When this morning I needed to open the file I got the message about error.
"excel cannot open the file because the file format or file extension is not valid" And also the file is showing up as having 0kb.
Tried an excel repair on the file and also opening up in another program like .docx or .txt. Is there any way of finding out what happened this file or fixing the issue.
File server is running windows 2012 R2 server. Shadow copies are available and I can restore the file to previous version, however the user did alot of work after that time.
I think your file is corrupted and it may be repaired using an excel repair tool; I personally have not used the Excel version of this maker but I have used the Excel Repair Kit and password tool and they work well:
However, if the user was working for a long time Excel may have saved a copy in the users computer C:\Documents And Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\filename.xlsx.
Another thing, I use Undelete Server Edition and it has worked great for the last 5 years; every time a user saves a file it makes a copy and it stores it for the time you specify.

While switching over to a new computer I installed the latest version of Visual Studio 2019 (v16.3.5). As a result when I load the project and try to update the models from the database it updates every single model by changing indents and adding extra line breaks and spaces in places. As a result in git every single model shows up as being changed when in reality nothing was actually changed other than spacing. I tried to look for a setting which could change this but had no luck. Restarted VS a couple of times and tried to right click on edmx file and "Run Custom Tool" but no luck.
I have several coworkers who are running 16.1.3 and have no issues, so it looks like it could be something that changed/broke in a new release. I have read via forums about other users having issues with VS2019 and edmx related tasks but haven't encountered this exact problem yet on the web.
UPDATE: It looks like if I downgrade to 16.1.3 I still see the issue. It is the same version my coworkers are on and don't see it. Could this be some kind of setting?
Found a link finally where somebody had the same issue. It actually turned out to be line endings. I had to open the 2 .tt files I had in notepad++ and convert to windows and save. Once I did that I was able to update without all models changing.
Edmx generate model file with blank lines
Is it possible to retrieve the published code from an Azure Cloud Service.
When I changed my TFS mapping, TFS wiped out the code I had written on my local machine. It converted the .csproj and .ccprof files to csproj.user and .ccproj.user files. It also removed the solution. I havn't checked anything in since February so checking out loses 3 months worth of code. I have access to some of the views, scripts, and .css files but all .cs files are gone. I have tried the following.
Remote desktop into the published site.
-Works but all .cs files are stored as a .dll and code is lost and
"obfuscated" when decompling.
Wondershare data recovery.
Some files are found but often in an unreadable format. Many are still
missing.
Getting the blob in the vsdeploy folder in Azure Storage.
I have the blob. Now what? Is there a way to convert that back into a readable project?
Using "Open from Azure Website" extension to load the project into visual
studio by the publishsettings file in Azure Portal.
This works great for app services, but I cannot find any existence of a
.PublishSettings file in Azure. The Get-AzurePublishSettingsFile call from
Windows Powershell doesn't not download the correct file. When using the
extension I get a "Object not set to an instance of an object" exception. I
have tested the extension with an app service and it works perfectly.
If you're talking about web/worker roles in a cloud service, then no - you cannot retrieve deployed code. To get code to a cloud service, it gets packaged up first by Visual Studio (or directly through command line tools, or via Eclipse). This entails compiling all of your code first. Source files are not included in the package (unless you've explicitly done something like setting "copy local" to true in the package, which I can't imagine anyone doing).
As far as what's in blob storage: If your .cspkg is still sitting in a blob, sure, you can download and examine it. But again, it'll just contain the same package that was built locally and uploaded during deployment.
With Web Apps, your code will be available in your d:\ drive, since deployments are done via version control (unless you simply ftp something up).
With Virtual Machines (which sit in cloud services in the "classic" deployment model), you would have needed to push code to the VMs on your own (there's no built-in push-from-version-control). So again, unless you pushed source code to the VM, there's no way to retrieve said source code.
As far as the code that was wiped out on your local machine, it might be worth looking into recovery / forensic disk tools (which it looks like you've started doing), to see if your code is still sitting around somewhere, hidden. But, really, how you go about hunting for deleted / overwritten files would be off-topic (or something to ask about on SuperUser).
Let me give you some background what I'm trying to achieve before I call out the problem.
Use TFS API to Get Services Work Item.
Get all the Open Bugs.
Write in excel all the Open Bugs (from step2).
Send step3 Excel as Attachment through SMTP.
Schedule a Windows Task on Windows Server 2012 and X64 to perform above steps on daily basis.
Problem:
While running step5 I'm not able to write into Excel using OLEDB because of exception"The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine". To resolve this issue, I have build my project Platform Target=X64.
The excel issue is resolved but I'm not able to access TFS API because it is not able to load DLL Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.DataStoreLoader.
Kaleem.
If you get the following error message: "Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.DataStoreLoader’ or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format". Please take the solution described in this blog: http://www.tonicodes.net/blog/installing-and-configuring-odata-service-for-tfs-11/
When I compile a project in XE8 (with update 1), I get frequently a error that a file is missing, although the file is just available. And when I compile again, it is another file that is missing. It seems random. After a few compiles (sometimes more or less) I have build the project. And even at Run (F9) I sometimes get the error that a file is missing.
Like #Andrei Galatyn said at the end of his post, it will be solved when you delete your Android configuration in SDK versions. But I want to be able to develop with Android. What is the real problem?
I couldn't find a solution on the internet yet.
Is there a solution for this problem? Thanks in advance!
I have similar problem with Delphi XE8/XE7 at least at 3 different PCs (home PC, notebook, VMW-based virtual machine in office). All PCs are fast, all are SSD-based. Usually i get the error message when trying to build large project, for small projects errors are very rare (but happens time to time anyway). So i am quite sure that it is problem with Delphi. What i tried:
added src/dcu paths as exception to antivirus
disabled indexing of files in Windows (Windows 7 x64/Windows 8.1 x64)
deleted all SDKs for mobile development in IDE (this step was most usefull in my case).
It doesn't solve the problem for 100%, but now i see that random message only few times per week. I will be glad to see real solution.
Just for information - many errors like "file YYY\XXX.pas not found" where with wrong path to the file, it was path somewhere inside of Android SDK. After deleting of all SDKs (fortunately i need only with Win x32/x64 platforms) i never see such errors anymore.
Some time ago i sent it to my colleagues:
Many times i got an sporadic error in Delphi IDE like this:
F2039 Could not create output file '.\dcu\FireDAC.Comp.DataSet.dcu'
When I just tried to compile again, the problem disappeared but compilation may fail on another file. It was especially annoying when I need to rebuild an large project, for example <...>. Finally I discovered that under some conditions Delphi is trying to access files at wrong path:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\12.0\PlatformSDKs\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20130522\sdk\tools\dcu\FireDAC.Comp.DataSet.dcu
Instead of
C:\M2014\Fellesressurser\felles\FireDAC.Comp.DataSet.dcu
All the time when I get the error it was try to access Android SDK folder instead of my application folder.
If you experienced same problem, you can solve it now, just delete Android SDK from Delphi IDE:
Open “Tools\Options\Environment Options\SDK Manager”
Select installed SDK (list “SDK versions”)
Delete it (button “Delete”)
recently, My company need me to do something on application cache, and I read this article: http://www.codemag.com/Article/1112051, I followed his steps,but it cannot work by using vs2013, it will show you the right page, but when you press f12 in chrome, it will show some error:Application Cache Error event: "Failed to parse manifest localhost:xxxxx/Home/manifest", and actually app cache didn't work. but when I use vs2010 it works just fine! since vs2013 has a lot more files in the mvc project, I cannot figure out what's wrong. Now I need some vs2013 tools which are not included in vs2010, so I really need the vs2013 version of this app cache program. It's quite in a hurry, can anyone help me? thanks a lot!
Please follow these steps to see if it helps.
Step 1: Run Windows System File Checker("sfc /scannow")
It allows you to scan for file corruption and restore Windows system files such as DebuggerProxy.dll. If System File Checker finds a problem with DebuggerProxy.dll or other critical system file, it will attempt to replace the problematic files from DLL Cache (%WinDir%\System32\Dllcache). If the DebuggerProxy.dll file is not in the DLL Cache, or the DLL Cache is corrupted, you will be prompted to insert the Windows installation disc to recover the original files.
To run System File Checker:
1.Click the Start button.
2.Type "cmd" in the search box... DO NOT hit ENTER yet!
3.While holding CTRL-Shift on your keyboard, hit ENTER.
4.You will be prompted with a permission dialog box.
5.Click Yes.
6.A black box will open with a blinking cursor.
7.Type "sfc /scannow" and hit ENTER.
8.System File Checker will begin scanning for DebuggerProxy.dll and other system file problems (be patient - the system scan may take a while).
9.Follow the on-screen commands.
Step 2:Make sure your ISO installation file is correct.
You can download the ISO file from the website below.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-hk/download/details.aspx?id=40787]
Before you install it, I suggest you use this tool http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 to verify hash of the ISO. Any discrepancy would indicate that the file was corrupted. Here is a blog about how to use the tool.
The sha1 value of ISO is "E61419E51F42254EE07DECF628B85C9861286250".
Then try reinstall it.
