Forticlient on ARM proc (surface pro x) - arm

i can not install forticlient (last version) on microsoft surface pro x, it's rolling back & exit during the installation ..
And i tried to install & configurate SSLVPN, and when i want to connect it, it stuck at 98% and disconnect.
Please any solution to install Forticlient my surface pro x (ARM x64) ?
Thank you.

You have to download and install FortiClient from the Microsoft Store. It's an outdated version and appears to only support VPN functionality but it seems like the only option for ARM processors at this time.
I had that issue with a Microsoft Surface X. I tried installing:
various versions
restarting the pc in-between attempts
running in different compatibility modes
running as administrator
disabling User Account Control
disabling firewalls and antivirus protections
installing Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.5.2
None them worked... when trying to install the drivers... it fails and rolled back every time. I installed the version from the Microsoft Store and that solved it.

They are not compatible with Forti client according to Fortinet. my source I had to open a ticket with them at my company regarding this issue.

how to install oracle database express on mac m1

I want to Install Oracle Database Express on macbook m1 but it only supports linux and windows, I downloaded Sql developer but I m unable to download Oracle database. I tried to install using docker and OrcaleVM but both attempt were unsuccessfull. I also tried playonmac but it only supports x86 software and x64 software crashes when i try to run. What should i do to install oracle database express on macbook with M1 chip??
Looks like the Oracle Database team hasn't released a build for ARM chipsets yet.
I had a similar issue (w/ docker) and solved it by following these steps:
Uninstall docker desktop if installed
Run brew install colima
Run brew install docker
Run colima start --memory 4 --arch x86_64
Run an Oracle DB image using docker (e.g docker run -e ORACLE_RANDOM_PASSWORD=yes -p 1521:1521 -d gvenzl/oracle-xe)
This should successfully run a container w/ an Oracle DB on the new M1 Macs.
This doesn't answer the question directly, but... A solution worth considering for M1 Mac users is using the Oracle-cloud database. It's "always free" so it's not a trial that expires after a certain time period. It's essentially having your own oracle database in the cloud that you can connect to natively from your own machine
https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/
It seams that the only way today is to use parallel desktop with an ARM Windows.
To download it you have to register for the Windows Insider Program:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewARM64
It should works:

I've been struggling to find a solution to this for the past couple of days, and finally have a halfway-decent solution. I've had success running Oracle Linux 8 (x86_64) with UTM, and then installing Oracle DB 21c EE in the VM. The setup, configuration and installation is completely manual and will take a significant chunk of time, but the outcome is pretty satisfactory. Mouse didn't work for me, so the GUI is pretty much useless. From what I've read, hardware acceleration doesn't work either, so my recommendation is to stay away from the UI as much as you can. I used keyboard to navigate the OL8 installer, and selected the "server" installation mode with headless packages. The install script (here) from the vagrant project was quite helpful in installing and configuring the DB. Performance-wise, I've found it to be quite snappy (to be fair, I've just tested the basics). The VM consumes ~5GB RAM of the 8GB I've allocated to it. In terms of CPU, I've allocated four cores to the VM, but I haven't seen it use any more than 50% of one core. Again, I use it for very basic CRUD requests, so that's all I've tested it with. And just to give a little context, I'm on the M1 MBA with 16GB RAM.
Regarding Apple M1 specifically, it is a 'known' issue.
Below solution worked for me: You probably installed node with either nvm or brew, by doing that you will install the arm64 version and get this error. The only solution for now is to download and install node from the homepage directly.

Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation when executing SQL Server 2019 service pack

I already had SQL Server 2019. After upgrading my Windows 10 to latest October Update, I found my SQL Server does not have latest service packs.
I downloaded latest service pack CU8 from Microsoft and ran it. After initializing set up, I get error
Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation
Many research and no luck even in SO.
Please advise.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download
Please get the offline installer for latest Microsoft Edge (Chromium) on above link.
Once you have it, run Edge installer and then try to run SQL Update again.
This worked. I ran the latest Edge standalone install and it unblocked the MSSQL patch.
I also confirm that it works. Thanks

I can confirm this fixes the issue when trying to install SQL 2014 Express Advanced on Windows 10 with H2 update installed.
I had the same error, and installing the standalone Microsoft Edge fixes the error.
After reviewing the logs and digging into windows registry and security, I found the problem was "Microsoft Edge" registry key. Somehow it is read-only for administrator and I figured it out I need to use SYSTEM account to apply the service pack.
Finally I found I can do that using an executable in SysInternals package which is famous for doing weird things in Windows.
This is what I did to apply the service pack.
Run Cmd or PowerShell as Administrator
Go to SysInternals and make sure you have the PsExec64.exe there
Run below command:
.\PsExec64.exe -sid "D:\Downloads\SQLServer2019-KB4577194-x64.exe"
This way you will execute the service pack using SYSTEM account which has highest privilege.
Service pack installed successfully!

How do I install Oracle Enterprise Repository 12c on Macbook?

I am trying to install the Oracle SOA stack of products on my MacBook but I am stuck at one very crucial point. Need a database on my machine for OER but cannot figure out what to do?
Here is what I have already done:
Successfully installed Oracle SOA Suite 12c
I have downloaded OER
I have tried installing Oracle Database 12c, with Linux version even though as there is no download choice for Mac. I faced following error : ./runInstaller: line 252: /Users/madhu/Oracle/product/18.0.0/dbhome_1/install/.oui: cannot execute binary file
I checked supported database for OER but did not find MySQL or SQLlite or any other product than Oracle and Microsoft SQL server.
Microsoft SQL server is obviously not supported in MacOS
So at the as for OER a database is essential and I cannot install any supported database on MacBook.
Can you please help me?
Even if the installer script doesn't instantly fail, that doesn't mean that the Linux version of ODB 12c will magically work on OS X.
Install ODB or SQL Server on something else and configure OER to connect to it. That "something else" can be a virtual machine running on your Mac.
Install VirtualBox (or your preferred hypervisor);
Install Linux or Windows on a virtual machine;
Install and configure Oracle Database or SQL Server on that VM;
Consult the manual to configure networking for your virtual machine so the database is accessible from your host machine.
WebLogic will run on the Mac but FMW/SOA will not - at least not stable. Neither will the database.
& I know I teach/install/admin these products and am a certified Oracle trainer. I’ve tried...my time was worth more than it took to try and get it to work outside a vm-natively. I assume yours is too.
Unless you are actively trying to learn how to install them, then yes #backgammon is right, install them in a VM.
BUT, if you just want to use them and are not as interested in installation, then use one of the prebuilt -preconfigured FMW virtual box images here that will run on the Mac under virtual box.
Then Install OER in that image.
But, be advised OER is no longer sold by Oracle, even though it’s available for download.
It has been replaced by the API cloud service product.

Installing ngpsql to use PostgreSQL in PowerBI

I'm trying to get data from a PostgreSQL database into PowerBI Desktop but it doesn't seem to work. I think the problem is with the installation with npgsql. When trying to setup a new database connection in PowerBI I type in the database and server, and this is the error message I get:
"Unable to connect
Details: "PostgreSQL: We were unable to find a database provider with invariant name 'Npgsql'.
This error could've been the result of provider-specific client software being required, but missing on this computer. To download client software for this provider, visit the following site and choose the 64-bit (x64) version of, at minimum, 'Npgsql version 2.0.12': https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=282716""
I've tried going npgsql website and install the required components but I can't seem to get it working. I'm not a developer so this is a bit complicated for me. Does anyone know how to get these components installed? I very much appreciate your help!
I'm using Windows 10 on a Surface Pro 3 if this helps. And I do have Visual Studio Community installed as well.
Best,
Bruno.
I have downloaded and tried it with version 3.6.6
Install npgsql
During the installation stage, enabled "Npgsql GAC Installation" as GAC requires Npgsql.
Restart the PC.
It should work now.
The solution from this page helped me: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Configuring-Power-BI-Connectivity-to-PostgreSQL-Database/ba-p/12567
Select the option to install to the GAC during install of the program npgsql v3.x.x downloaded from this page https://github.com/npgsql/Npgsql/releases
It worked for me (although I do not know why:-)
When you install Npgsql you should enable installation into the GAC.
Otherwise component will not be automatically detectable to other programs.

How to install Visual Studio 2008 and MS SQL Server 2008 in Ubuntu?

I would like to install Visual Studio 2008 and MS SQL Server 2008 on Ubuntu OS which I have in my PC.
Wine is great, but using it for either Visual Studio or MS SQL Server is probably pushing it. Both are behemoths that tend (especially VS) to use the latest MS APIs. More to the point, both VS and MSSQL are listed as Garbage in Wine's db, meaning compatibility is very poor.
I would recommend you take a serious look at the available tools on GNU/Linux, such as MonoDevelop, Mono, Eclipse, MySQL, etc. You can use cross-platform build technologies, such as nant to build the same apps on both platforms.
If that isn't an option, then you will have to resort to virtualization, as noted by sean.
This answer might help you. Visual Studio and SQL Server are for Windows OS variants. You'll need some sort of VM to run on Ubuntu.
If you have some sort of Windows OS disks available to you (XP / Vista / 2008), then you could consider installing Windows under VirtualBox, and installing your software inside that VM. That used to work really well for me when I was still on Ubuntu.
I've been developing using Visual Studio in Ubuntu since version 10.04, and there is a solution, although I would recommend that you run the 64 bit version of Ubuntu and have at least 4Gb of ram available.
Install the latest version of VirtualBox (download from the website, rather than using the ubuntu repository), and install Windows as a virtual machine. You need to allocate a virtual disk and then, when the virtual machine starts for the first time, either install Windows from a CD/DVD, or select a CD image to use within VirtualBox.
You will also see, with the later versions of VirtualBox, something called "seamless mode". This essential hides the virtual machine, so that instead of running in a window, it will integrate with the Ubuntu desktop. That way, you can run Visual Studio in what looks to be native to Ubuntu.
I have tried both VMWare Player and VirtualBox and found VirtualBox to be better for my setup. Although VMWare Player has something called VMWare tools, which provides an API layer to better translate Windows calls to your video card, this can be temperamental if you're using an ATI card (speaking from experience with a Mobility Radeon HD 4600). Nvidia provide much better driver support in Linux than ATI do.
Hope this helps!
I think is better to simply dual boot to write your .net code. It will put your hardware to better use, and you will be able to focus more since all the programs on which you waste your time will be on the linux side :D (at least that's the upside for me)
To use Visual Studio 2008 and MS SQL Server 2008 in any Linux..
