I'm facing a problem right now and I don't really know how to get more informations about it.
I've converted a desktop application through Microsoft's Desktop App Converter, made some manual modifications about the visual assets, and rebundled it through "makeappx.exe". Then I signed it.
Everything went fine. Except that when I double click the appx to check it, I have the following window:
Appx Error
Which roughly translates as "Couldn't open the appx or appxbundle file" and "Reason: Failure caused by an unknown reason".
This does not helps me a lot :/
However, if I try to install the package through a simple "Add-appxpackage MyPackage.appx", it works perfectly fine.
Could anyone help me find some leads on what's happening here? I've already checked the event viewer as explained here but I couldn't find anything unusual.
Thanks,
Skefrep
It seems the Microsoft team has taken notice of this problem and investigated this appropriately.
-Here is their solution-
The problem can be because when you convert an app with DesktopBridge the resources are signed with the manifest info and store that info in the .pri files you found in PackageFiles folder. Later, when you change something like the Publisher or the Name this signature doesn't match. To fix this you only need to recreate the .pri files.
rm *.pri. Remove the old .pri files.
cd C:\foo\PackageFiles\. Change current directory to the PackageFiles folder. This step is important for the next step.
makepri createconfig /cf priconfig.xml /dq en-US. Create a configuration file for the resources.
makepri new /pr "C:\foo\PackageFiles" /cf "C:\foo\PackageFiles\priconfig.xml". Generate the new *.pri files.
Then you can make the package as usual: MakeAppx, etc.
You can find more information about this problem in "Failed due to unknown reasons" error when you try to sideload a Desktop Bridge app - App Consult Team.
I need to run Jboss 7 as service.
Followed these steps :-
Copied my Jboss to C:\Program Files <86>
Downloaded Jboss-native-2.0.10-windows-x64-ssl and copied the contenst of bin catalog to %JBOSS_HOME%/bin
Changes done on service.bat as per link instructions
https://community.jboss.org/message/724488
Changed my dir location to my Jboss bin
and given command service.bat install
C:\Program Files \jboss7>bin>service.bat install
Failed installing JBAS50SVC
Access is Denied.
Service JBoss Application Server 7.1.1 installed.
I'm not able to rectify this problem .
It appears to be windows access issue.
Try the following:
Does the windows ID you are using have Administrator privileges? If no, get a Admin ID else if Yes, proceed to step 2.
Try to do the same but in some other drive (not c: )
UPDATE #1 : OP says he can not see the output of service.bat file
Follow the following steps
Open start menu
Search for "cmd"
Right click "cmd" and run as Administrator
type in following command
cd C:\Program Files \jboss7\bin
Type service.bat and observe the output
On a 2008 Windows Server this occurs because you're not running the command line as an administrator. Those of us who have spent considerable amounts of time on 2003 server, and others before that, keep forgetting that your logged in ADMIN level account does NOT get passed to the command line automatically like with previous versions of Windows.
With any additional errors, past this one, I would keep going back to the service.bat file and looking at the path statements, throughout that file, to ensure that they are all correct to reach what is correct for your installation.
Also, don't forget to create a log folder under standalone (unless you're doing a domain install). Failure to do that will also cause issues as well.

Using Rails 3.2.2, finishing up my migration from sqlite to postgres 9.2.
Used answer in this tutorial as a guide to install postgres and got stuck on Step 11 where it asks run heroku db:pull where I get:
Failed to connect to database: Sequel::AdapterNotFound -> LoadError: cannot load such file --pg
I dug deeper and found db:pull (taps gem) is deprecated and came across a few recommendations for pg:transfer. Installed pg:transfer, but I get the impression it may be *nix only(?) as if I run: heroku pg:transfer it returns:
Heroku client internal error. No such file or directory - .env (Errno:ENOENT)
If I do pg:transfer with -f and -t it gives me:
'env' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file which means it isn't bound to path or doesn't exist as a command in windows.
Any thoughts on above errors?
Resolved by using pg:backups gem, which was recommended as the replacement for taps in the Heroku docs. I used this guide and uploaded my dump to dropbox for Heroku to pick it up.
Here's my exact list of steps and cmds:
Added pgbackups from heroku.com add-ons to my instance.
heroku pgbackups:capture DATABASE (this just backs up your heroku db)
pg_dump -h localhost -U <pg username> -Fc dbname > dbname.dump
Moved dbname.dump into a folder on my dropbox
In Dropbox, right-click on dbname.dump => "Share link"
Cancel the sharing dialogue pop-up, right-click on "Download button", Copy Link Address (Chrome)
heroku pgbackups:restore DATABASE <paste dropbox download link here>
Dropbox trickiness: don't use the file link provided by Dropbox since it's an html redirect and will cause pg:restore to fail, even though the extension ends in .dump
Instead, navigate to your dropbox page and "right-click copy link address" on the Download button. That's the address you use in your pgbackups:restore (should be something like db.dump?token=<long random string>)
A bit clunky, but got the job done. If you know a better way please let me know!
You need to make a .env file containing something like:
DATABASE_URL=postgres://localhost/myapp_development

I have been trying to install Ushahidi platform for weeks but without any luck. I recently started over using Ushahidi latest release ushahidi-Ushahidi_Web-2.0.1-140-g0991172.zip and extracted it to folder ushahidi under my root.
I am using godaddy Linux server. I have tried both the manual and wizard to setup Ushahidi. In all cases, after installation, I get the same error when I try to access admin page. The error reads:
No input file specified.
I have tried tried installing using the wizard and the manual process. My PHP version is as required.
Any help will be appreciated. I need it to work so I can move on and customize it. Very disappointing such a good open source tool has poor installation guides!
Thanks.

there are a few things that can trip up following the installation.
Make sure that:
mod_rewrite is turned on in apache "a2enmod rewrite"
AllowOverride All is set in your apache config for your site (/etc/apache2/sites-available/default)
your .htaccess file points to the correct webroot
This seems like it should be very easy but I don't see a link to it anywhere.
How do I download the source code of a google app engine project?
Windows
appengine-java-sdk\bin\appcfg.cmd -A <your_app_id> -V <your_app_version> download_app <output-dir>
Linux
./appengine-java-sdk/bin/appcfg.sh -A <your_app_id> -V <your_app_version> download_app <output-dir>
For completeness, using the Python implementation:
appcfg.py download_app -A $appID -V $appVersionNumber $downloadDirectory --oauth2
--oauth2 is of course optional, you can omit it and provide your email + app-specific password (or your password, and then go implement two-factor authentication right after), but it's easier, and frankly there's no reason not to.
Documentation.
App Engine actually recently added the ability for the developer who uploaded a given app version to download its source code.
As of October 2019 you can simply go to --> App Engine --> Services and in the tool dropdown select 'source' and the source code is there
Posting this since none of the listed methods above didn't take me to the code (by June 2021)
You could try accessing it through;
Google Cloud Platform > Debugger > choosing the version of the
Application from combo at top.
This will list the files of that version on the left pane. There is no way to download it automatically but you can copy-paste the code.
Hope you will find this helpful.
IMHO, the best option today (Aug 2018) is:
Under the main menu, under Products, go to Tools -> Cloud Build -> Build history.
There, click the ID of the build you want (for me - the last one).
Then, in the opened window (Build details), click the "source" link, the download of your compressed code begins.
As simple as that.
HTH.
Working with App engine standard using Go, the debugger isn't available yet.
How I managed to download the source code for an existing service was to use the gcloud tool.
First: Get the version id of your service using the app engine console or running: gcloud app versions list
Second: use the version and service name and run: gcloud app versions describe <versionID> --service=<service name>
the describe parameter will give you the storage locations for your source files that looks like this:
cmd/main.go:
sha1Sum: e3fe5848c2640eca7ac3591490e1debc2d3a9b09
sourceUrl: https://storage.googleapis.com/<project>/<file id>
Third: you can then use the storage console, using the file id, to download the files you are interested in.
this process based on java sdk
Its works for me...
Download Google cloud SDK
gcloud init
enter image description here
Follow through process of logging in using your credentials
Enter following command from SDK
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\appengine-java-sdk-1.9.49\bin
enter image description here
Enter Following command to download source code
appcfg.sh -A [YOUR_APP_ID] -V [YOUR_APP_VERSION] download_app [OUTPUT_DIR]
Eg: appcfg.sh -A my-project-name-1234 -V 2 download_app C:\Users\india\Desktop\my project
Note: this progress based on java-appengine sdk so we use appcfg.sh instead of appcfg.py
check if your app is uploaded with same email id that is in your app engine. if you are not sure then in app engine > control > Clear deployment credentials and then click on any project, deploy to sign in again then use this
appcfg.py download_app -A {app id from google app engine} -V {1} "{c:\path}" --oauth2_credential_file=C:\Users\{your account name}/.appcfg_oauth2_tokens
change all {} to your needs
Things have changed since this question was asked so I'm adding an updated answer. Note that this only applies to GAE Standard Environment
Google has deprecated appcfg.py and so the previous responses appcfg.py download_app no longer works.
gcloud which is the SDK in use (it replaced appcfg) does not have the functionality to download your source code.
When you deploy your app via gcloud app deploy, it copies your source code to a bucket. The default bucket is staging.<project_name>.appspot.com. Your files will stay in this bucket for a maximum of 15 days before they are deleted. You can modify the rule so that the files are retained for longer or less time.
The file names in the bucket are encoded so you can't figure out what each file is unless you open it (i.e. download it). Google has a mapping of the encoded names to the original file names. To get this mapping, you run the gcloud app versions describe command and it will list the file names and their encoded names. To download the files, you have to manually click each url one by one. So essentially, you have to download each file manually and then use the mapping to rename them (or open the file, check the content and then rename them). Also note that downloading the files manually will not maintain the folder structure in which they were uploaded.
If you do not wish to go through all of the above hassles (imagine having to manually open each url for each file if you have a small to mid-sized project which has hundreds of files), our App - https://nocommandline.com - now supports downloading source code from the default bucket - staging.<project_name>.appspot.com (so far as your files are still there which means any deployment i.e update not older than 15 days from your current date unless you previously increased the deletion age on your staging bucket's lifecycle page).
In simple terms, you enter your project name, the version number and our App will take care of retrieving the original file name to encoded name mapping, automatically downloading the files and renaming them to the original names, while maintaining the folder structure.

Log in to the console.developers.google.com
Select the project you want to download the code from (Google App Engine Standard Envoronment).
Go to the App Engine Dashboard. Under Summary is Debug and Source. Click on Source.
Select each file one at a time and copy it (highlight the code, copy and paste into your local editor.)
Select the next file....
You need to use svn to checkout the files.
If you are on Windows, you can use tortoise svn for your GUI end.
Here are tutorials on how to do it, here is the related question.
