Marmalade error download - url

i tried everything to solve this but since two days i'm blocked.
i need IwNui Api in my application to build interface for my application iOs, but when adding this package to the mkb project with this line 'subproject IwNUI', Visual studio block on this trace error :
Building project: c:/Users/PC/Documents/testaaaa/testaaaa.mkb

Even every examples of marmalde launchap which use Iw** api can't be build because the dowload of : https://raw.github.com/marmalade/mdev-package-list/master/6.2?1365852339.42 is not working.
I saw tips on some pages but these not fixed it for me (delete folder in roaming/appdata/marmalade , close firewall, try with old sdk 6.2.1,6.2.0,6.1 etc)
I'm open to every suggestions, my development was going well until i need an UI to going forward. I'm beginner in interface development and if a different and easy way exist for adding a Ios UI i'm also interested in.
Thanks a lot for reading, dams

Marmalade needs the mdev package to function properly, thus you've to download it anyways, there're now way you can skip it. The problem is with your internet connection. Probably it's not accepting HTTPS connections. Try using some other internet provider or check using some friends' wifi. I always get this error when my internet is slow and the download gets timeout. Changing the internet plan is the only thing that might help.
In case it gives the same error on other internet connection, then it might be some issues with how you set up marmalade, Try reinstalling it.

TFS build error - process cannot access

When I am trying to buid on TFS build server I got the following error:
Error CS2012: Cannot open 'xx.dll' for writing -- 'The process cannot access the file 'xx.dll' because it is being used by another process.'
Could anyone please help out with that?
If you are developing a web application or anything of the like make sure that your server process (usually IISExpress or something) is not being run.
Kill all the processes that maybe consuming your compiled code.
Alternatively, you can download Lockhunter and see which program is locking that file.

access trouble when controlling remote mac with AppleScript

I'm new to all this programming stuff, but trying to learn. I've had moderate success, but feel like it's more accidental than intentional. I'd appreciate help learning and understanding AppleScript in particular and networking, automation and programing in general.
Here's the environment: Almost all Apple with two Minis, a couple of laptops and various iOS devices including an AppleTV. The network consists of an Apple Airport Extreme, and an older D-Link switch I rescued (with permission) from the recycle bin at work. There are three Foscam wi-fi cameras as well. One of the Mini's (named Dora) is acting as a file server running Yosemite and the OS X Server application with a growing RAID 1 array for media storage.
What I’d like to be able to do is to run a single AppleScript from my laptop (Adam’s Macbook) that does the following:
Launch the application iCamSource on Adam’s Macbook
Change “Require Password to Wake” to true on Adam’s Macbook
Quit iTunes on Adam’s Macbook if it’s running
Start the current ScreenSaver locking Adam’s Macbook
Quit iTunes on Dora if it’s running
Start the current ScreenSaver on Dora if it’s not already running thereby locking Dora
I’d also like to have a single script on Adam’s Macbook that reverses these actions.
I have been able to launch iCamSource, set “Require Password to Wake” to true and start the ScreenSaver on Adam’s Macbook with a lot of Google-Fu, much trial and error, and quite a bit of frustration. I’ve not yet tried to quit iTunes if it’s running. That’s a new idea/requirement, but I think it should be pretty simple to add to the functioning script.
Where I’m running into trouble is controlling Dora from a script on Adam’s Macbook. I run into access errors (905 and 927 generally) about half to two thirds of the time I run the script. I’ve tried every syntax option and many combinations of syntax that I found via Google searches, but this is the one that has the most (but still inconsistent) success.
set remoteMachine to "eppc://remoteMachineadam:slajdlll#10.0.1.2"
tell application "iTunes" of machine remoteMachine
quit
end tell
When reading various articles explaining how to do this, sometimes the scripts use eppc, others use epps and I’ve not seen a consistent result with either one. Some of the articles use the actual IP address of the remote machine, others use password#name.local, so that syntax would be slajdlll#dora.local. That change also seems inconsistent in its results.
This seems to be a pretty basic task, and I’ve found lots of articles that do this very thing, but their methods don’t work in my environment. Many of the articles I’ve read are quite old, so the syntax may be out of date. I’m kind of at my wits end, but feel I should be able to make this work. Any help y’all could provide would be VERY appreciated.
Update - I had the scripts working last night in all regards except controlling the remote machine. This morning, I tried to open the "Away" script to again tackle the remote control issue and I get a Syntax Error Unable To Authenticate User message and the script won't compile. Here's the code:
tell application "System Events"
try
tell application "iTunes" to quit
end try
try
tell application "iTunes" of machine "eppc://Dora.local" to quit
end try
tell security preferences
set require password to wake to true
tell application "iCamSource" to activate
tell application "System Events" to start current screen saver
end tell
end tell
Both "Away" and "Home" scripts run from the AppleScript menu. When I unlock the ScreenSaver after running the "Away" script I get a dialog box stating "There was a problem connecting to the server "Dora's Airport Extreme. The share does not exist on the server. Please check the share name, and then try again." I'm beginning to think I may have a Permissions error on one or more of the machines, or if there's another problem that's making the scripts act inconsistently.
Thanks for all the help so far!
UPDATE Ok, it seems that there was a problem with iPhoto and Screen Saver interacting with the files on the networked hard drive. Opening iPhoto and slowly opening each image and re-linking those that had lost their location seems to have solved that problem. I am still encountering the access error code 905. In order to troubleshoot this process, I'm stripping the script down to one task, to quit iTunes on the remote machine named "Dora" Here's the code:
set Dora to "epps://adam:slajdlll#10.0.1.2"
try
tell application "iTunes" of machine Dora to quit
end try
Here's the event log that running that script generates:
tell application "iTunes" of machine "eppc://epps/adam%253kslajdlll%4010.0.1.2.local"
quit
--> error number -905
end tell
Is it possible/probable that the OS X Server application is mis-configured and is preventing the script from controlling the remote machine? Any other thoughts or things to try?
Thanks!
UPDATE 2
In the Groups section of the OS X Server application running on the remote machine, I found that there is a group called Apple Remote Events ACL. When I click the Edit button to view it's settings I see the actual account name is "com.apple.access_remote_ae-disabled". I wonder if this is telling us something. I searched several libraries for "com.apple.access" thinking it may be something that could be edited, but found nothing. I'm a member of that group. I tried removing myself from the group and tried the script with no change in the results so I added myself back into it.
UPDATE 3
As suggested I'm trying to eliminate OSX Server from the equation. To do this I'm going to try to launch TextEdit (since it's faster to launch than iTunes) on a third machine, known as Office Mini that does not have the Server application on it. Here's the script:
set OfficeMini to "eppc://10.0.1.196"
try
tell application "System Events" of machine OfficeMini
open "/Applications/TextEdit.app"
end tell
end try
When I ran the script initially I got two dialog boxes asking for username and password. I supplied them and checked the "Save in Keychain" checkbox. The script didn't open TextEdit, but I'm not getting the access errors. I am getting different errors though, -600 or -10010 depending on if I use System Events or the Finder. Using the list on this page: Nicholas Reilingh AppleScript Error Codes I find that with System Events I get an error -600 which means the application isn't running. That's no surprise, I'm trying to open it. When I use the Finder instead of System Events, I get an error -10010 which the list indicates is "Handler can’t handle objects of this class." So, there's progress, but I'm still stumped.
UPDATE 4 To further clarify/simplify, I tried running a simple script to open iTunes on the Office Mini locally on that machine and it worked fine.
tell application "iTunes" to activate
Substituting the "quit" for "activate", and trying this syntax with several different applications all worked quite well and very fast. I tried the same script and variations on the Dora machine with the same, successful results.
I then tried to make that syntax work remotely with this code:
set OfficeMini to "eppc://10.0.1.196"
tell application "iTunes" of machine OfficeMini to quit
I got this error message in the event log:
tell application "iTunes" of machine "eppc://10.0.1.196"
quit
--> error number -927
Result:
error "iTunes got an error: Unable to authenticate user." number -927
So, since OSX Server isn't running on the Office Mini, this seems to eliminate that as a culprit for the error. I tried altering the code with another variant I saw online that uses "epps" in place of "eppc" which results in a similar error message: "iTunes got an error: Remote access isn’t allowed." number -905. I did not get dialog boxes requesting credentials. When I've seen the "epps" string used online, it was formatted as "epps://username:password#location" so I used "epps://adam:slajdlll#10.0.1.196" and received the same error message. I even tried "Adam" in place of "adam" with no change in the results.
Yes, step 1 is to try to make your script as simple as possible to narrow down the point of failure.
I have copied your minimal script onto my machine & gotten it to work:
set Dora to "minipuppy.local"
try
tell application "iTunes" of machine Dora to quit
end try
A few notes:
I used "minipuppy.local" (the Bonjour linklocal name) rather than your eppc stuff, because I know what the former is, but not the latter. (You can get the link local name from the Sharing prefs panel* where it says "Computers on your local network can access your computer at:XXXXX"
An authentication dialog popped up saying that I needed to enter the username and password for the target machine - but it did have
an eppc address in the dialog (I didn't take a screenshot :-( )
After entering the username/password my script did nothing. Interestingly, I could not get it to print out a log as yours has?
I fixed this by going to the target Mac's System Preferences & enabling "Remote Apple Events" in the Sharing panel*. After turning that on, my script worked.
I'm hoping enabling "Remote Apple Events" is the ultimate solution to your simplified problem.

Reason for Error Timeout in CouchDB

I'm using CouchDB for my iOS application.
Following is my Application flow,
When my application is launched for the first time it replicates the remote database using xyz:a...#mmm.iriscouch.com/databasename.
if the replication is successful, everything works as expected, but sometimes the replication is not successful. In that case I'm getting the following error with log
1> OTHER: {'EXIT',{error,timeout,#Ref<0.0.0.506>}}
and it doesn't replicate until i remove the application and freshly reinstall the application on the device/simulator.
is there any callback/delegate to handle this?
Somehow when I try synching with empty DB then I never get Error time out, once I have content in DB I get the error!
Also it is hard to replicate on simulator, whereas on iPad occurrence is 90%.
i have placed the sample project in git hub
https://github.com/interactiveblueprints/CouchDBSyncTest (for couchDB username password, please read readme.txt)
this sample code is just modification of PhotoLocations. An example application (https://github.com/couchbaselabs/iOS-Demo-PhotoLocations), But changed as per my requirement.
I have also attached the error logs in
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35814355/ErrorLog.rtf
Waiting for reply,
Krishna.
I have tried with your sample and updated the "Couchbase.framework" to the latest one, from https://github.com/couchbaselabs/CouchCocoa and now the problem seems to be solved, may be this was a bug in previous version. now it seems the DB tries to restart by itself. and the replication feels more smoother and faster.

TFS 2010 Build: Sporadic failure in the process

We have a situation where our builds have stopped executing in a stable manner.
At a rate of about one every three we receive either TF215096 or TF215097 errors & the Build fails.
If we then restart the Build controller, it works again - until next time.
The errors we get are:
TF215096: An error occurred while connecting to controller vstfs:///Build/Controller/1: There was no endpoint listening at ht*p://XXXX that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
TF215096: An error occurred while connecting to controller XXX - Controller: Could not connect to ht*p://XXX. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 192.168.XXX.XXX:XXX.
TF215097: An error occurred while initializing a build for build definition \XXX: Team Foundation services are not available from server ht*p://XXX. Technical information (for administrator): The underlying connection was closed: A connection that was expected to be kept alive was closed by the server.
TF215097: An error occurred while initializing a build for build definition \YYY: An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to ht*p://XXX. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.
Server logs provide with little info, at least we 've found nothing that helps us resolve the situation. Various searches in the Net were also not productive.
Does anybody had these/similar issues? Any ideas on how/where to look for a resolution?
Thank you very much in advance for any input!
Yeah it does sound like you have some connectivity issues. You can try enabling SOAP tracing on both the build machine and the server (if possible) to see if there is any error. If it still does not give you any new information, contact Microsoft by filing a Connect Bug to get help.
I am not sure if it will help you but I have ran into similar issues with build agents and ended up just deleting and re-creating the agent. You may try deleting your controller/agent and adding it back in. A brute-force solution but a good starting point. If that doesn't resolve the issue at least you can eliminate the controller/agent as the issue and take a look at network/server related issues.
Today is a happy day, since we managed to get to the bottom of the matter. Sorry #Duat that I'm taking away the 'answer' checkmark - but it turned out that the problem was quite different from what you (and anybody else) has predicted.
In my last update I was about to forward the matter to MS, when we realized that our Firewall was misbehaving in the name resolution. So we assumed this was the culprit & awaited for this to resolve. After this was resolved, we STILL had the same issues and we went again re-examining the situation.
We isolated the problem within our Build Process, more specific with a custom code activity included in our build solution.
I had implemented a code activity that would kick in at the final steps of every build. This activity was about gathering BuildDetails about the running build & add them as a new line in a 'BuildLog.xls'. Implementation made use of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.This excel sheet resides in another server (NOT on the Servers where the controller/agents reside).
During development of this activity I was faced with issues like this, but after I was done no instances of EXCEL were left hanging. So I thought this was done & dealt with.
With try & error, we observed that when this activity wouldn't ran, no problems would occur.
With this activity running, the very first build after a build-controller reset would succeed, any next build had a certain chance to fail. Once any build failed, no other would succeed until another build-controller reset.
I have only a general understanding of what the problem was (Excel-call is DCOM, TFS services are WCF : How on earth would they interfere?! Why would this sometimes succeed and sometimes fail?! ).
The provided diagnostics were no help either, in fact they mislead us into a loop that continued for months.
If I ever find the time, I 'd like to cleanly reproduce the error & make a Server Fault question out of it...
After removal of this activity it works! I now searched in SO & found this, where J.Saunders comments: "In general, you should never use Office Interop from a server environment". It's ironic that once you get to the bottom of any difficult issue, the whole universe seems to have known about it except you...

Starting a windows service fails with error 1053

I have a windows service that is failing to start, giving an error "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion".
Running the service in my debugger works fine, and if I double click on the the service .exe on the remote machine a console window pops up and continues to run without problem - I can even see log messages showing me that the program is processing everything the way it should be.
The service had been running fine previously, though this is my first time, personally, trying to deploy it with the most recent changes made to the program. I've evaluated those changes and cant figure out how they might cause this problem, particuarly since everything runs fine when not started as a service.
The StartRoutine() method of the service impelmentation is empty, so should be returning in a "timely fashion".
I've checked the event logs on the computer, and it doesn't give any additional information other than it didn't hear back from the service in the 30 second requisite time frame.
Since it works on my machine, and as a double-clicked executable, how would I go about figuring out why it fails as a service?
Oh, and it's .NET 2.0, so it shouldn't be affected by the 1.1 framework bug that exhibited this symptom (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839174)
The box is a windows server 2003 R2 machine running SP2.
This is a misleading error. It's probably an unhandled exception.
Empty your OnStart() handler then try this in your constructor...
public MainService()
{
InitializeComponent();
try
{
// All your initialization code goes here.
// For instance, my exception was caused by the lack of registry permissions
;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
EventLog.WriteEntry("Application", ex.ToString(), EventLogEntryType.Error);
}
}
Now check the EventLog on your system for your Application Error.
Could be a number of things and it might help to get a stack trace on the machine exhibiting the problem. There are a number of ways to do this but the point is that you have to see where this is failing in the code.
You can do this with remote debugging, but a simple thing might be to just log to the event logger, or file log if you have that. Literally, putting "WriteLine("At class::function()") throughout portions of the code to see if you've made it there.
This will at least get you looking in the right direction (which ultimately is the code).
Update:
See Microsoft's How to Debug Windows Services article for details in troubleshooting startup problems using WinDbg.
This related question details nice ways to debug services that are written in .NET.
I agree with Scott, the easiest way to find out what's happening is to put some traces in the start-up code (maybe it doesn't even come to your start-up code).
If this doesn't help, you can post your code here so others can take a look.
perhaps lacking some dependence, try this :
- deregister your service
- register again
If fail at register means that lack an module.
If the StartRoutine is empty, you are probably starting it somewhere else.
IIRC you need to fire off a worker thread, and then return from StartRoutine.
One of the problems which may lead to this error is if windows service which needs to be deployed consists of some error i.e it may be simple authorization error or anything as in my case I have referenced some folders and files for logging which were not existing, but when provided the right path of those file and folders it solved my problem.
I ran through every post on this particular subject and none of the responses solved the problem, so I'm adding this response in case this helps someone else. Admittedly this only applies to a new service, not this specific case.
I was writing a File listening service. As a console app, it worked perfectly. When I ran it as a service, I got the same error as above. What I didn't know (and many of the MSDN articles about services conveniently leave out) is that you need to have your class executed from within ServiceBase.Run( YourClassName());. Otherwise, your app executes and immediately terminates and because it terminated, you get the error above even if no error or exception occurred. Here is a link to an article about this. It actually discusses setting up your app for dual use - Console app and service: Create a combo command line / Windows service app
I had that issue and the source of my problem was config file. I edited it in notepad and notepad added one special character which cause service not to run properly because config file was ruined. I saw that special character in notepadd++ and after delete it, service started to run successfully as previous did.
In my case, the correct .NET framework was not installed on the server that I was installing the Windows service on.
One other reason is If you copy the DLL in 'debug' mode to installation folder this issue will come.What you need to do is Run the project in 'Release' mode copy the DLL or directly form Release folder rather than Debug folder,,and copy that DLL in to installation folder,it will work.You can see the reduction in size of DLL ,it will not contain any debug symbols and like that
