FIX: Oracle 10g on Solaris x64 installation – Error in invoking target ‘agent nmb nmo’…

6

So here I am trying to install Oracle Application Server 10g release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) on my Solaris x86 64-bit VM to test out some stuff. Then, I get this error.

“Error in invoking target ‘agent nmo nmb’ of makefile ‘home/oracle/OraHome_1/sysman/lib/ins_sysman.mk’. See ‘/home/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installAction2011-11-17_07-04-25AM.log’ for details.”

Nice. Just nice.

Fixing the iOS 5 battery drain problem

I’m sure you are already upgraded to iOS 5 by now if your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch supports it. Well, even if you aren’t yet, it’s probably just because you didn’t have the time yet.

It’s only been a week since I’ve updated my iPhone 3Gs and I’ve to say that it’s the best OS that’s landed on the iPhone 3Gs. The performance is great and it also feels much faster than iOS 4.x. Overall, I’m a happy camper that my 3Gs has received a new More >

Fixing the OS X Lion bluetooth pairing after sleep issue

1

Upgrading to Lion on my MacBook Pro was great. It was perhaps the easiest OS upgrade I’ve ever done thus far. While I generally like how it is, there are a few nagging issues with Lion that just irritated the heck out of me.

One of it is that when my MacBook wakes up from sleep mode, my bluetooth mouse would never get paired again without the need to turn the MacBook’s bluetooth module off and on. This was never the case with Snow Leopard! More >

Fix: iTunes was unable to load dataclass information error

15

I recently installed XCode 4 off the Mac App Store. Once that was done, i found that iTunes started throwing me the “iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from Sync Services” error every time I try to plug in the iPad and iPhone to sync via iTunes.

Darn! Looks like the Xcode 4 install screwed up iTunes in some way.

Searching the error on the Internet pointed me to a fix posted in Apple’s support site. It’s basically a guide to More >

iOS 4.3 “The required file cannot be found.” Sync Error

0

By now, most of you iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch folks would probably already be on iOS 4.3. But there’s one thing that might have bugged you a whole lot. If you happened to sync a huge load of photos via iTunes to your iDevice, chances are, you’d notice that the photos may not fit in the available storage anymore.

Worse still, you may even get the ”The required file cannot be found.” error and not able to sync the photos at all!

If you’ve just updated your Mac today, you’ll notice the new Mac App Store sitting on your dock.

All is great when you immediately fire it up and try to download an application. But after doing so, you might get a nasty ‘unknown error (100)’ problem.

So how do you fix this problem if it’s unknown? Well, the solution to this problem is actually rather simple.

The main issue with this problem, so it seems, is that the Mac App Store More >

Fixing the iPhone Bluetooth Internet Tethering with OS X

31

Recently, my iPhone’s ability to wirelessly tether the Internet connection from my mobile data plan through bluetooth was broken. I wasn’t sure what went wrong or what broke it. All I did right before it happened was to upgrade my RAM from 4GB to 8GB and also the hard disk to a nice 7200RPM 500GB Western Digital Scropio. And the guy that helped me upgrade it did a PRAM reset as well.

But anyways, it just go screwed up. It would still pair More >

Fix: Recovering from a suspect Microsoft SQL Server database

Recently, (NO) thanks to our wonderful host, we had to recover from a RAID failure which caused severe data corruption on our dedicated server’s RAID array. And upon recovering from the fiasco and spending several hours getting the server back up, we discovered multiple lost files and worst of all, corrupted database files!

And we had both MySQL and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express running on the server. We managed to backup the critical More >

Here’s a quick post to share a quick fix to a problem that I faced this morning while trying to setup a proof-of-concept environment for the Oracle Service Bus. If you think I’m writing Greek, then you may skip this rather g(r)eeky post. However, if you’re like me having this problem and wondering why there are so little post online that easily explains what the problem is and how to quickly fix it, then here’s a quick tip to save your More >

Fix: Getting Linksys WMP300N to work on Ubuntu

1

This is a little old actually, but it looks like it’s still getting hits on my old blog, so here it is being migrated over to this new blog. The Linksys WMP300N is not as widely used so it seems and therefore, it’s quite hard to find much resources on it. So I guess this might be good post to keep alive as well.

If you somehow happens to be having the Linksys WMP300N and Ubuntu 8.10, well, you’d probably be wondering how to get the More >

Windows Vista DVD Maker

If you’re a Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate user, you would probably have noticed the Windows DVD Maker and might even have tried it out. And in all honesty, I’d have to say that I actually like it.

One of the main reason why I think that the Windows Movie Maker is kinda cool is that it’s just so easy to use. All you need to do is just the few steps as the following:
