Printing in ICCUBE - reporting

I am trying to setup printing functionality on icCube reporting. I have wkhtmltopdf installed and setup on my computer, .exe file is in my path. I updated the icCube.xml file like this:
<printComponentConfiguration active="true">
<!-- <url>/icCube/print/*</url>-->
<url>/icCube/print/*</url>
<!--
The path of the wkhtmltopdf (http://wkhtmltopdf.org/) executable; use an absolute path
if it is not accessible from the icCube server process (i.e., in the PATH).
-->
<exec>C:/Program Files/wkhtmltopdf/bin/wkhtmltopdf</exec>
<!--
(Seconds) Every housekeeping-period a job is running to cleanup timeout printing job(s).
-->
<houseKeepingPeriod>15</houseKeepingPeriod>
<!--
(Seconds) Elapsed time after which a printing job is considered as timed out (can be
cancelled by the housekeeping job.
-->
<timeout>30</timeout>
iccCube server is started normally, but i still get this message when attempting to print report.
Has anyone had this problem and has some advice? Thank you

If you are using the "community" version, the print server is not available. Request an evaluation key if you'd like to evaluate the printing feature.
Hope that helps.

Multiple problems installing TeX Live 2021 on Windows 10

I have a Windows 10 laptop where no TeX distribution was ever installed before (double-checked for config directories, files, and environment variables).
Wanting to install TeX Live 2021, I followed the full installation guide and also read the Windows-specific warnings. I've now tried several times, following different installation procedures - cleaning up everything (deleting base & user directories, environment variables, etc) before each time - but still don't manage to get a working installation. Before I report a bug at tex-live#tug, I wanted to ask for advice here, in case I'm doing something wrong. Here is what I did, step by step, and the problems I encountered in the process.
1. First I tried running the recommended online installer install-tl-windows.exe. It never got past the screen that tries to contact or load from a repository, even after a 30-min wait. Tried a dozen times, choosing different mirrors nearby and far away. No luck.
2. Then I downloaded and unpacked the install-tl.zip and run install-tl-windows.bat therein. This time the main installation window appeared. I left all default paths and environment variables (note that I do have write access to C:); in the selection scheme I unselected all languages except US & UK English, unselected XeTeX, LuaTeX, ConTeXt; also unselected TeXworks (I use Emacs), and clicked Install. After one to three hours (depending on the mirror I chose), the installation was complete.
I tried compiling a minimal latex document (see below), and got an error similar to the one in this old question:
I can't find the format file `pdflatex.fmt'
Following the advice in the answers to that question and similar questions elsewhere online such as this, I tried running texhash and fmtutil-sys --all. The latter gave the error
no appropriate script or programme found fmtutil.
for which there are also many posts online.
2a. Not understanding what the problem could be, I re-tried with all possible combinations of the following three options: (a) choosing different mirrors; (b) leaving the full selection of packages (ie without unselecting some languages, LuaTeX etc); (c) redoing the procedure by choosing "Run as Administrator". No luck.
3. At this point I tried downloading the ISO file with the full installation. Mounted the image and run install-tl-windows.bat (as normal user, as recommended; I repeat that I do have write access to C:). Everything proceeded as in step 2. above. At the end of the installation I tried running pdflatex on the minimal latex document. New error this time:
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.22 (TeX Live 2021/W32TeX) (preloaded format=pdflatex)

Very strange. A file search revealed that article.cls is in the TeXLive file system; but kpathsea did not see it indeed.
4. At this point I opened the TeX Live Shell from the Start Menu; selected a CTAN mirror; updated the TL Manager which was not up to date; updated all packages; run Regenerate filename database; and run Regenerate formats. With the latter I got this error:
tex live shell:

I tried to continue anyway with Regenerate fontmaps, and then tried again pdflatex on the minimal document. New error:

(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
5. I tried again steps 3. and 4., but with "Run as Administrator". Same errors.
OK at this point I give up and really don't know what to do. Am I doing something wrong? For the moment I have to concur with this post: installation of TeX Live 2021 is an utter failure.
Here is the minimal latex file I used for testing (copy & paste):
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
test
\section{Section}
test
\end{document}
Found, that the download is not working because the system path to "cmd.exe" is not found. Therefore: open a cmd window and add the system path prior to starting the .bat file (set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Windows\system32)

File.exists() sometimes wrong on Windows 10 with Java 8.191

I have a bunch of unit tests which contain code like:
File file = new File("src/main/java/com/pany/Foo.java");
assertTrue("Missing file: " + file.getAbsolutePath(), file.exists());
This test is suddenly failing when running it with Maven Surefire and -DforkCount=0. With -DforkCount=1, it works.
Things I tried so far:
The file does exist. Windows Explorer, command line (copy & paste), text editors, Cygwin can all find it and show the contents. That's why I think it's not a permission problem.
It's not modified by the unit tests or anything else. Git shows no modifications for the last two months.
I've checked the file system, it's clean.
I've tried other versions of Java 8, namely 8u171 and 8u181. Same problem.
I've run Maven from within Cygwin and the command prompt. Same result.
Reboot :-) No effect :-(
More details:
When I see this problem, I start to see the "The forked VM terminated without properly saying goodbye. VM crash or System.exit called?" in other projects. That's why I tried forkCount=0 which often helps in this case to find out why the forked VM crashed.
This has started recently, maybe around the October 2018 update of Windows 10. Before that, the builds were rock solid for about three years. My machine was switched to Windows 10 late 2017, I think.
I'm using Maven 3.6 and can't easily try an older version because of an important bug that was fixed with it. I did see the VM crash above with Maven 3.5.2 as well.
It's always the same files which fail (so it's stable).
ulimit (from Cygwin) says:
$ ulimit -a
core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
open files (-n) 256
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
stack size (kbytes, -s) 2032
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 256
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
I'm wondering if the "open files" limit of 256 only applied to Cygwin processes or whether that's something which Cygwin reads from Windows.
Let me know if you need anything else. I'm running out of ideas what I could try.
Update 1
Bernhard asked me to print absolute names. My answer was that I was already using absolute names but I was wrong. The actual code was:
File file = new File("src/main/java/com/pany/Foo.java");
if (!file.exists()) {
log.debug("Missing file {}", file.getAbsolutePath());
... fail ...
}
... do something with file...
I have now changed this to:
File file = new File("src/main/java/com/pany/Foo.java").getAbsoluteFile();
if (!file.exists()) {
log.debug("Missing file {}", file);
}
and that fixed the problem. I just can't understand why.
When Maven creates a forked VM to run the tests with Surefire, then it can change the current directory. So in this case, it would make sense that the tests work when forked but fail when running in the same VM (since the VM was created in the root folder of the multi-module build). But why is making the path absolute before the call to exists() fixing the issue?
Some background. Each process has a notion of "current directory". When started from the command line, then it's the directory in which the command was executed. When started from the UI, it's usually the folder in which the program (the .exe file) is.
In the command prompt or BASH, you can change this folder with cd for the process which runs the command prompt.
When Maven builds a multi-module project, it has to change this for each module (so that the relative path src/main/java/ always points to the right place). Unfortunately, Java doesn't have a "set current directory" method anywhere. You can only specify one when creating a new process and you can modify the system property user.dir.
That's why new File("a").exists() and new File("a").getAbsoluteFile().exists() work differently.
The latter will use new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"), "a") to determine the path and the former will use the Windows API function _wgetdcwd (docs) which in turn uses a field of the Windows process to get the current directory - in our case, that's always the folder in which Maven was originally started because Java doesn't update the field in the process when someone changes user.dir and Maven can only change this property to "simulate" changing folders.
WinNTFileSystem_md.c calls fileToNTPath(). That's defined in io_util_md.c and calls pathToNTPath(). For relative paths, it will call currentDirLength() which calls currentDir() which calls _wgetdcwd().
See also:
https://github.com/openjdk-mirror/jdk7u-jdk/blob/jdk7u6-b08/src/windows/native/java/io/WinNTFileSystem_md.c
https://github.com/openjdk-mirror/jdk7u-jdk/blob/jdk7u6-b08/src/windows/native/java/io/io_util_md.c
and here is the place where the Surefire plugin modifies the Property user.dir: https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/blob/56d41b4c903b6c134c5e1a2891f9f08be7e5039f/maven-surefire-common/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/surefire/AbstractSurefireMojo.java#L1060
When not forking, it's copied into the current VM's System properties: https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/blob/56d41b4c903b6c134c5e1a2891f9f08be7e5039f/maven-surefire-common/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/surefire/AbstractSurefireMojo.java#L1133
So I have checked via printing out the system properties with some simple tests.
During the tests via maven-surefire-plugin the user.dir will be changed to the root of the appropriate module in a multi module build.
But as I mentioned already there is a system property available basedir which can be used to correctly handle the location for tests which needs to access them via File...The basedir is pointed to the location of the pom.xml of the appropriate module.
But unfortunately the basedir property is not set by IDEA IntelliJ during the test run.
But this can be solved by a setup like this:
private String basedir;
#Before
public void before() {
this.basedir = System.getProperty("basedir", System.getProperty("user.dir", "Need to think about the default value"));
}
#Test
public void testX() {
File file = new File(this.basedir, "src/main/java/com/pany/Foo.java");
assertTrue("Missing file: " + file.getAbsolutePath(), file.exists());
}
This will work in Maven Surefire with -DforkCount=0 as well as -DforkCount=1 and in IDE's (checked only IDEA IntelliJ).
And yes that is an issue in Maven Surefire plugin changing the user.dir.
We might convince IDE's to support the basedir property as well ?
Aaron, we develop the Surefire. We can help you if you provide the path for this:
assertTrue("Missing file: " + file.getAbsolutePath(), file.exists());
Pls post the actual path, expected path and basedir where your POM resides.
The theory would not help here. We are testing all the spectrum of JDKs 7-12 but we do not have the combination Cygwin+Windows which must be considered.
The code setting user.dir in Surefire you mentioned exists a decade.

Starting a payara 5 has encountered

I have build a very simple project of hello world in
Payara 5 (5.181)
JSF 2.3
JDK 1.8
CDI 2.0
Maven
and encountered a problem
Unable to start server due following issues: Launch process failed with exit code 1
in console it throws an error of :
Error: Could not find or load main class server\payara5\glassfish.lib.grizzly-npn-bootstrap.jar
[PIC] Payara 5 Error
It seems that the Payara Tools for Eclipse suffer by several bugs that may cause this. In my case, the following workarounds helped:
The Payara installation path should not contain spaces (e.g. Program Files\Payara)
It seems that only Java 8 is supported at the time
Open the domain.xml configuration file for the domain you are trying to start (typically payara_install_path/glassfish/domains/domain1/config/domain1.xml) and search for "Xbootclasspath". You should find a couple of lines like
<jvm-options>[1.8.0|1.8.0u120]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.6.jar</jvm-options>
<jvm-options>[1.8.0u121|1.8.0u160]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.7.jar</jvm-options>
<jvm-options>[1.8.0u161|1.8.0u190]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.jar</jvm-options>
<jvm-options>[1.8.0u191|1.8.0u500]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.1.jar</jvm-options>
Depending of your installed Java version (try running java --version) and choose the appropriate line (most likely the last one). Remove the remaining lines and remove the [...] part at the beginning of the chosen line so you will get something like
<jvm-options>-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.1.jar</jvm-options>
After this, the tools seem to start normally.
The Problem is with Java version. The grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.1.jar Jar is placed in bootclasspath, thats why it requires proper java version to start payara server. So remove unnecessary bootstrap jar from domain.xml.
In Windows:
1) Go To ---C:\Users\xxxx\payara5\glassfish\domains\domain1\config\domain.xml
2) According to my java verson(java version "1.8.0_191") I deleted the following lines from domain.xml. So delete according to your java version.
<jvm-options>[1.8.0|1.8.0u120]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.6.jar</jvm-options>
<jvm-options>[1.8.0u121|1.8.0u160]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.7.jar</jvm-options>
<jvm-options>[1.8.0u161|1.8.0u190]-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.jar</jvm-options>
3) Remove this [1.8.0u191|1.8.0u500] part from jvm-options & Edit the line in your domain.xml(w.r.t java -version) as shown below
<jvm-options>-Xbootclasspath/p:${com.sun.aas.installRoot}/lib/grizzly-npn-bootstrap-1.8.1.jar</jvm-options>
4) restart your server.
As Radkovo said, "The Payara installation path should not contain spaces (e.g. Program Files\Payara)", so I moved the Payara to the Documents folder.
Problem solved!

how to specify the path of generated debug binary file when debug go-lang in vs-code

How to specify the path of generated debug binary file when debug go-lang in vs-code?
I have tried modify launch.json file but not work.
I can debug go programs well now in vs-code, the only problem is each time i finish debug, a debug binary file was generated under my project directory, like the picture below.
I want to know can i specify the directory of generated debug binary file?
I am on mac screen shot of my problem:
This is followed by vscode-go issue 1345: "Delete binary files created by delve after closing the debug session"
delve is the debugger for Golang, or at least it's the one that the Go extension uses.
When you debug something with delve, it creates a large binary file in the current directory. If you debug a main function (dlv debug), you get 'debug'. If you debug a test function (dlv test), you get 'debug.test'.
In normal delve usage, when you're done, you quit delve. Delve then deletes this file. Apparently VSCode gracelessly terminates (SIGKILL?) delve, which means the file sticks around.
So this is studied, but not yet resolved.
Update July 2018: Ramya Rao adds in this issue:
I finally have an update!
Turns out there is a command called Detach that can be called on the delve server which will result in the required clean up of the debug binary that gets generated.
To get this fix before the next update to the Go extension (which will be either Friday or early next week), please follow the below:
Download https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-go/blob/master/Go-latest.vsix
Run code --install-extension Go-latest.vsix
If the above fails with Error: end of central directory record signature not found, then clone this repo (vsgo) and use the Go-latest.vsix file from the cloned repo
Reload VS Code
The fix worked for me as long as the program being debugged wasn't spawning processes of its own like a web server for which I have logged an upstream issue with delve.
I'd appreciate it if folks here can give the fix a try and share any feedback.
The change you need to do to provide an output path for the generated debug binary is in the launch.json file.
Use the property output in your debug configuration.
Please don't modify the package.json file.
This debug file was generated by delve when debugging and should be deleted after debugging, this seems to be bug of go extension of vs-code, see the link here

Travis-ci boost log compilation with biicode time-out

I am using travis-ci and biicode to build my project who is depending on boost log. But boost log times are longer than 10 min so I get this message:
No output has been received in the last 10 minutes, this potentially indicates a
stalled build or something wrong with the build itself.
The build has been terminated
The build is working correctly, it's just that boost log is really long to compile with limited resources (I tried to compile it on a VM with 1 CPU and 2GB of RAM and it took almost more than 15 min)
I know this is happening because there is not enough verbose going on so I tried the following flags:
>bii cpp:build -- VERBOSE=1
In the CMakeList.txt, set BII_BOOST_VERBOSE ON as mentionnened here
Set BOOST_LOG_COMPILE_FAST_ON as explained here
Using travis_wait
Actually travis_wait seems to be the correct solution but when I put it in my .travis.yml like this
script: travis_wait bii cpp:build
It does actually doesn't output logs like usually and just time out after 20 min. I don't think the actual building is taking place
What is the correct way to handle this problem?
This is a known issue, Boost.Log takes a long time to compile.
You can use travis_wait to call bii cpp:configure, but I'm with you, I need log feedback (No pun intended). However, I have tried that too and leaded to >50min build, which means travis aborts build on free accounts :( Of course my repo does not build Boost.Log only.
Just as a note, here's part of the settings.py file from the boost-biicode repo:
#Boost.Log takes so much time to compile, leads to timeouts on Travis CI
#It was tested on Windows and linux, works 'ok' (Be careful with linking settings)
if args.ci: del packages['examples/boost-log']
I'm currently working on a solution, launching asynchronous builds while printing progress. Check this issue. It will be ready for this week :)
To speed-up your build, try to play with BII_BOOST_BUILD_J variable to set the number of threads you want for building Boost components. Here's an example:
script:
- bii cpp:configure -DBII_BOOST_BUILD_J=4
Be careful, more threads means more RAM needed to compile at a time. Be sure you don't make the travis job VM go out of memory.
