Unable to install KB2899397 - Error 2709

Hello , 

We have installed Lync 2010 using "Lync.msi" in our estate (x64) Product Code : {81BE0B17-563B-45D4-B198-5721E6C665CD}

When we try to install the latest MS Security update KB2899397, the installer fails with the error code 2709. 

The log file indicates the below. 

The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2709. The arguments are: PurgeOCSetup, , 

The patch KB2899397 is installing as expected if we run it on the machine where Lync 2010 was used using "Lync.exe" [Product Code: B3107AA-FBF8-4003-8785-EC789C2AE0C2]

It is not a feasible solution to re-install "Lync.exe" on all user machines in the estate. 

Please let me know how to proceed with patch installation as it is a compliance issue.

Well I know I herd Rumors because of some Unknown Crash Bugs in the "Desktop Windows Manager" and apparently knowing Microsoft seems to focus on "Metro Design Only" and making most Apps not Compatible to what was used in the "Windows Classic" Low-Res Themes(used from 9x to Windows 7), it seems Microsoft is still not responding to why they refuse to add that feature, you know, it makes me wonder why some people still do not like the Windows 8 through 10 Metro Tile App Design, let alone similar to what is used on Android.

Since Discussion of adding this feature back seems to be not allowed for some reason, and I am not going to upgrade unless that "Windows Classic" Low-Res Themes is Restored for Desktop users and those with lower System Requirements,

Not trying to be rude or anything, just some Common Sense.

Hi everyone,

I am from VietNam, and I very excited to experienced new OS Windows 10 Preview. I'm using Pro version build 10074 with Slow updates, everything seems good, just a bit delay but I think it will be better in RTM version.

When I wanna open a file with another app (like a photo with Photoshop) in PC Mode, I must click on Photoshop in the menu and click OK. Please add another way: double click to Open selected app.

Many thanks from Vietnam :)

Excel 2010 - Bevel Shapes Checkered Boxes

Hi All,

One of our users is having a problem with Excel 2010 when creating shapes and using the Bevel shape effect, it is placing random checkered boxes around the shape.

I have tested on laptops running Office 2010 SP2, patched Office 2010 with the latest updates and this bug is still appearing.

I have tested this in Office 2013 and no checkered boxes appear around a shape configured with the Bevel shape effect.

Unfortunately, Office 2010 is the current company standard, so we cannot upgrade the user to Office 2013.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

Hi,

I tested in my environment (Windows7 & Office 2010), but I cannot reproduce your issue.

Would you like to share us a sample file through OneDrive and some screenshots if possible? I want to test.

Hello George,

Thank you for your response.

After putting the shapes in the excel spreadsheet, the random checkered boxes only appear after manipulating the shapes. If you save the document and reopen the boxes will only appear after changing the shapes.

I am new to this forum and I have tried to insert an image, but I receive the following error message:

"Body Text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account"

I have tried to verify it, but I am not having much luck.

Hi DeputyPaul,

If your still experiencing this issue, we found that the cause of the issue was the display drivers of the Dell Latitude E7440s we were using.

Updating the display driver resolved the issue for our users.

Data Management Gateway service account

I've installed the DMG service on my servers, but need the service to run on a domain account, but I'm facing issues for getting the privileges right. 

Just membership of the 'Data Management Gateway Users' group doesn't work, and although making the service account local administrator works, this seems pretty much overkill to me.

What are the exact needs for a Data Management Gateway service account? Can it be run without administrative rights?

Refresh data in Excel spreadsheet from SharePoint list or OData feed located within Office 365

Hi,

Is it possible to refresh an Excel report with a PowerQuery/Power data stored in Office 365 SharePoint list?

One would think this would work out-of-the box if I am signed in the Office 365 and access the report through the web browser. However I get an error message telling me I have to register a data source in Power BI admin center. That seems rather unnecessary since the data would then be sourced from Office 365 to the gateway and then back to Office 365 again? Is there any way to access data within Office 365 directly from Excel?

When trying to create the data source in Power BI admin center I am not able to use my organisational Office 365 account as credential, hence not able to create the data source.



The report and data refresh works when running Excel from local machine and not in web browser. Thankful for any help.

[Case Shaing] Add Mailbox Role to a CAS failed with error "Cannot create a file when that file already exists. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800700B7)"

After you install any server roles on a computer running Exchange 2013, you can't use the Exchange 2013 Setup wizard to add any additional server roles to this computer. If you want to add more server roles to a computer, you must either use Add or Remove Programs from Control Panel or use Setup.exe from a Command Prompt window.

Checking the setup log, you can find the following error messages:

[05/13/2015 16:25:33.0097] [2] Ending processing set-OwaVirtualdirectory

Based on the ExchangeSetup.log, it indicate that the OWA Virtual Directory has already exist on SERVERNAME.

Then run below command to double check OWA VD:

Get-OwaVirtualDirectory -ShowMailboxVirtualDirectories | FL Identity,Server,MetabasePath,Path,*URL*,*Domain*,Website

Note: The ShowMailboxVirtualDirectories switch specifies whether the OWA virtual directories on Mailbox servers are returned. More details about this parameter please refer to Get-OwaVirtualDirectory.

The difference in Exchange 2013 is that, it has got 2 websites hosted at IIS (Default Website and Exchange Back End). More details you can find in below blog: Managing Exchange 2013 IIS Virtual Directories & Web Applications.

By default, the Virtual Directory of Exchange Back End site only exist on server which install Mailbox role. If there have a relevant VD in only CAS server, it could return above error when add Mailbox role in it.

Therefore, we can use below command to remove this redundant Virtual Directory.

Remove-OwaVirtualDirectory "ServerName\owa (exchange back end)"

Meanwhile, run IIS \reset to refresh IIS then run the Exchange setup.exe again as Administrator to add Mailbox role.

The above solution can also apply for the following error message:

$feVdirName = "PowerShell (Default Web Site)";
$beVdirName = "PowerShell (Exchange Back End)";
$vdirName = "PowerShell";
$InternalPowerShellUrl="http://" + $RoleFqdnOrName + "/powershell";

Get-PowerShellVirtualDirectory -ShowMailboxVirtualDirectories -server $RoleFqdnOrName -DomainController $RoleDomainController | where { $_.Name -eq $beVdirName -or $_.Name -eq $feVdirName } | remove-PowerShellVirtualDirectory -DomainController $RoleDomainController;

Windows 10 Breaks Nearly All Armadillo/Software Passport Apps

I just wanted to make Microsoft aware, if you aren't already, that Windows 10 Technical Preview breaks nearly all applications that have been protected using Armadillo (also known more recently as 'Software Passport') from Silicon Realms. Armadillo/Software Passport is a software protection and licencing system, widely used by software publishers round the world.  Silicon Realms announced in 2014 that they were no longer selling or supporting Software Passport, so presumably they don't care. But there are a great many applications out there that will not run under Windows 10 (and won't install either), as things currently stand.

I have done some experiments with Windows 10 Technical Preview and have found that it is possible to protect a program using Armadillo/Software Passport, in a way that will work with Windows 10.  I don't want to go into the details here, but it can be done.  However, there are issues with the solution even for new products, and of course it doesn't solve the problem of all the existing programs, almost none of which are likely to be already using the 'fix'.  The concern is that if Microsoft don't solve this problem, there's an awful lot of software out there that won't run under Windows 10, that should.  And that's going to mean an awful lot of very unhappy customers.

By far the least painful solution, I would hope, would be to modify Windows 10 to restore full compatibility with Armadillo/Software Passport.

I would be very happy to help in any way I can, if anyone from Microsoft wants to contact me for more information about this.


Simon

And, it is important for you to ensure you have notified the publisher of this software about this so they can take appropriate action to get it working properly with Windows 10.  The publisher of the software must make changes to their software to ensure compatibility with Windows 10.

When Microsoft makes changes to the APIs causing incompatibility with existing third party, the third party software publisher has to make modifications to their software to resume compatibility.  Microsoft does not alter their APIs to accommodate third party applications unless it is a universal problem.


------------------------------------
Reply:

I haven't notified Silicon Realms because - as I said - they have stopped selling or supporting the product.  It seems very unlikely that they are going to do anything about it.  And even if they were still selling the product, they could only affect future compatibility.  They couldn't do anything about all the existing products that are out there, that will now break under Windows 10.  Only Microsoft can.

"... unless it is a universal problem".  If by 'universal problem' you mean a problem that will affect a large number of products and a large number of people all over the globe, then yes it is a universal problem.  How many people are likely to be affected?  I don't know.  Probably even Silicon Realms won't know because they only sold the software.  All they know is how many clients they had - i.e. how many software publishers bought their product.  They won't know how many products those clients have produced and sold over the years.  Is it enough that Microsoft need to worry about it?  Probably yes.


Simon


------------------------------------
Reply:

You must comprehend that Microsoft writes the operating system with the APIs.  When a new or updated operating systems cause incompatibility with any third party application the publisher of the application has to make the necessary changes to their product to be compatible with the updated operating system.  That is the way it has been since computers became readily available and operating systems were updated to incorporate new technology and such.

Microsoft is not going to make changes to their operating system or the APIs to accommodate one third party application.  And, if the publisher ceases support for the product then you need to find another third party application for your needs.  The probability of Microsoft making changes to Windows 10 to support an obsolete and unsupported application is extremely low.  The research, time, and man power to accomplish this would be cost prohibitive for just a single third party application.

This is the real world, not an ideal world!

They will only if it is cost effective.  These things require resources:  Money, Time, and Manpower, none of which Microsoft is going to squander if there is no Return on Investment.  No company does!

My experience of over 20 years with these Pre-release edition operating systems is the third party software entity is the one that has to make the adjustments for the changes to be compatible with the newer operating systems.

Sounds like you need to apply for a position as a lead software engineer with Microsoft so you can ensure these types of discrepancies are avoided anytime Microsoft  embarks on any of their projects to improve Windows so you can ensure there are no incompatibilities with any existing third party software.  Microsoft is always eager to employ expert software engineers that can ensure their products are PERFECT!!!

Can you elaborate on what the issue is?  Is it related to Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR)?

------------------------------------
Reply:

I have never, to my knowledge, come across a case where MS went out of their way to support a third party application that is itself unsupported as they progress with a new OS build. (Please do correct me with a specific example if I am wrong!) In fact I could count the number of instances where the have done this within an existing OS build on one hand, when there are much more resources available for such tweaking.

The correct solution in this case, especially given that the curve of modern computing inexorably bends towards virtualisation, is to run legacy applications (which *most definitely* includes this one) in a virtual environment that supports them. I would suggest you start thinking in this direction yourself, anything else is pure fantasy I'm afraid.

Hi bvj - I'm afraid I don't know what the issue is. The standard settings will cause an app to fail to run under Windows 10 Technical Preview.  By adjusting the normal settings you can get it to work, but the settings are only described in terms of the level of security they offer and not in terms of what they actually do.  There is a setting that explicitly mentions Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), but that it doesn't seem to make any difference.  That said, if Microsoft were to investigate, I'd guess that they would be able to work out where the problem lies fairly easily.

I'd like to also respond to those people who seem to think that it's naïve to imagine that MS might even consider doing anything about this issue.  Yes they well may not do anything.  But it's not a question about altruism.  It's a question of self-interest.  If a significant percentage of all existing Windows programs will not run under Windows 10, this will make it a less attractive prospect to anyone thinking of upgrading.  So Microsoft have a calculation to do: (a) how many products are likely to be affected; (b) what would be the cost to them of solving the problem.  And if the answer to (a) is big enough, and the answer to (b) is small enough, of course they'll do it.  Wouldn't you?

jaconsidine said: "The correct solution in this case ... is to run legacy applications (which *most definitely* includes this one) in a virtual environment that supports them."

"This one"?  Did you read my post?  I'm not talking about one application.  I'm talking about ALL products that use Armadillo/Software Passport - which is likely to be all products produced by a significant number of software publishers around the world.  To the best of my knowledge, Armadillo/Software Passport has been the most popular commercially available software protection tool available.  Do you know what percentage of Windows applications use it?  No.  Neither do I.  So why are you dismissing the problem?

The suggestion about running the program in a virtual environment is not helpful.  Yes some users might be OK with that, but very few.  And you can't possibly sell new software to Windows 10 users on the basis that they need to run it under a virtual machine!

As indicated, the actual developer is needing to modify their app to function with the NEW os.  It is not really MS's responsibility to support software that is neither supported nor maintained by the developer.  Might be time to search for another application to protect your investment.

As for the dismissal of the "issue", I would imagine it is being dismissed since it is NOT a windows issue but rather an issue with a non supported nor maintained application.

MSs latest build has issues with it's own software, VS Developer (that I know of).  MS will modify this application as it is developed and maintained, maybe not earlier versions but new versions will accommodate the Windows OS changes.

For the benefit of anyone who wants to know the outcome, Microsoft does appear to have fixed the problem.  I read on the Internet that the problem was fixed as of build 10041.  I have done most of my testing on build 10074 and can confirm that on that build at least, the problem does appear to have been fixed.  So thank you Microsoft!

WOW!! Are the Jumplists in this Build (10130) ever nice!!  Huge improvement there!

And if any prior Build was thought to be fast & snappy, well, HA!  Now, look...

Also, REALLY like the Windows Administrative Tools folder added to the Start menu/Apps and 1st seen in Build 10122; just brilliant what's in there & all located sensibly together.

Mine stayed at 3% for over ten minutes which got me very worried.

But I was patient and it eventually continued -- did take about 1 hour and 30 minutes though!

Previous build installed much quicker without the long delay at 3% complete.

I will, also, remind that DL & install times can vary greatly & be impacted by a number of factors. Simultaneous demand on servers, internet speed & how robust the machine is are some things.

And it is normal that things may seem like they have stopped... can often sit @ a certain percentage a long time. Why do you think "Please wait..." has become such a joke amongst IT Pros. Honestly it took me a while to realise patience & not to panic or be concerned... just wait (sigh).
This, also, applies to Updates... it's hard sometimes to contentedly let things run & run & run... But, they DO complete (well, usually LOL).

The time 10 takes compared to the time we had to expend doing this work before 10... this is like a trip to Eden. For so many years, would have been SO nice to have what we have now & going forward, thanks to Windows 10 and a lot of technological progress in recent times. Means fewer billable hours but, one can compensate w/ Cloud & Managed Services..

HOW TO DISABLE "VIEW AND TRACK YOUR DOWNLOADS" IN IE9

Why does Microsoft make everything so complicated.  The pop-up "View and Track your downloads" in IE 9 is a nuisance.  No matter if I click Open or Save, THE FILE DOES NOT OPEN FROM MY DESKTOP.  How can I disable this box and allow my files to open from my desktop?

Hi Dottie,

 

I would like to know what file you want to open.? Is it on Desktop?

 

Please understand the Download Manager will manage all your downloads. you can see your download history, files, location here.

 

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Using-download-manager-in-internet-explorer

 

When the file has not been downloaded yet, it will prompt Open or Save button. However, if you download the file successfully, it will prompt Open or Run button. Therefore, I suggest saving the file first. If the file has been saved, you can double click the file from your desktop to open it directly.

 

Meanwhile, as far as I know, the Download Manager cannot be disabled.

 

Best Regards,

Niki

OK, so you guys decided to make things more difficult and time consuming, and that's just the way it is?  Every day, I lean more and more towards Apple.  It seems like the gods at microsoft just want to make sure we do things their way and their way only.  What was the development meeting like?

 

Dev 1: "Hey, here's an idea.  Let's take something that works great and can be done very simply and fast, and we'll break it! 

Dev 2:  Awesome dude.  But, let's make sure that this is a fixed feature with no way of turning it off.  This way, people will have to waste a lot of time doing something that shouldn't take any time at all!

Dev 1:  But won't that cause people to complain?

Dev 2:  Who cares?  First of all, who are they going to complain to except our forum guys in India?  Secondly, what's it matter.  We'll just say that someone else thought of it, and we don't know if there will be any changes.

Dev 1:  Dude, we rock.  Let's waste people time for no reason.  It will be awesome!

 

What a bunch of ignorant fools.  Why break something that worked already.

Thanks Nicki for your reply.  I have tried everything imaginable including your suggestions and no matter what I click "Do you want to open or save this file" NOTHING OPENS.  Before downloading IE9 all that I had to do was to click an icon on my desktop and the file, program and/or E-Mail opened.  Now I get this box asking "Do you want to open or save this file" and it is most annoying.  Why would I click the desktop icon if I did NOT want to open the file.  Very few programs will open from the desktop.  I uninstalled IE9 and IE8 installed automatically and I still get that box.  When I click START and type in Internet Explorer, I get the same "Do you want to open or save this file."  I have been attempting to get this problem fixed for free but I now next week the Geek Squad will come in and fix it for me.  When I click START and type in Download Manage that "Do you want to open or save this file" box appears.  I have over a thousand feeds in my windows live mail 2011 file that I cannot open.  I cannot open windows live mail at all but luckily I can open Comcast and my mail comes through Smart Zone but my feeds are hung up in my computer.   As I said, this all started when I downloaded IE9 and when this repair is done by the Geek Squad I will definitely not use IE9 because that is when all of the trouble started.   Thanks again for your help.

Mr Langdon, It is possible that your default is in docx. Verify the default file extension first. Recently a similar problem that had all my new Word Docs in DOCX was resolved by changing the default file extension from Word Document (*.docx)    to  Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc ) . Now they open.

Microsoft's control freak abuse is grounds for a lawsuite. Since Downloading is not the same function as browsing MS has tried (once again) make all windows users RATS IN A RUT. It is choice that has made Windows win over Apples OS' and now MS is trying to put many of the download manager software companies out of business just as Apple has managed to keep the whole ball of yarn. Apple is slowly opening up a bit with Leopard & lion while MS is squeezing everyone into the MS box, not the X-box but the Restricted my way or the highway mentality.

Come on Microsoft, get real! everyone has their own way of working and you should not try to make us all MS Robots.  I have been selling MS products since you made a nice litte add-in CPM card for apple one boxes.  Please don't go down the OS2 road once more, choices work dictitorial operating systems and browsers do not make happy clients.  learn from the past.  put a checkbox in IE9 to enable the Download Manager.  don't just stick it up our browsers.

Don't get me wrong, I love MS and being an old tech I feel like a parent trying to guide their child.

PLEASE!!! I AM TIRED OF MAKING EXCUSES FOR MS WHEN MY CLIENTS ASK ME WHY.

Niki-

That wasn't the qustion - or the answer.

Here's the situation: I do NOT want to use Download Manager; I can manage my own downloads,thank you very much! It filters downloads, suce as an executable or some scripts which provide access to documents I wish to read or catalog. I have a folder dreated on my boot drive and in \\Users for downloads. I also move the off to an archive drive soon as i have run or implemented the file.

But no- I can manage this just fine and its one of Explorers WORST enhancements in history.

So, how do with disable this THING.

Regards

David

I have my own 'set of extentions' which no program has yet to filter or obstruct. I use numbers and a date code - 1 alpha and 2 numericals. I build folders for even type. For instance, a .DOC file compiled today wouldbe saved to something               like C:\Word011\finished_lumber\lumbr2X4.O51

Doc files are always by my initals or the type of doc. When I need it, I rename it, and move on. Is it a PITA- yeah, but Microsoft and others have dumbed down so much that even intermdiate users are beginning to drink heavily.

Well Poz, I've worked for almost 20 years now in IT from Fortune 500 to Mama's Fish 'n Chips. I see you've been around the block once or twice too.

I've never seen any use for a download manager- NONE, and I've never seen one worth a damn. You mean we're working with a population so stupid they can't click a file, open Explorer and drop bloody file in folder named Downloads ?

Some bollocks came up with this Download Manager rot on a Monday after a tough night out and about. As for Mac - OPEN THE APIs !

I agree COMPLETELY! I have been in the computer business since it started (mid '60's) and Microsoft gets dumber & dumber trying to out think the customer and force their ways onto the user - VERY user unfriendly. I think the Download manager is a stupid thing as well, and only makes it harder for you to take control of your own PC (after all, it IS My Personal Computer) and put it in  he hands of MS. I also am searching for a solution to turn off that stupid Download manager!!!!!!!!!!!! IE 9 works fine on Vista, but this Download manager issue seems to be a problem only on Windows 7. In addition, I cannot install the official IE for Windows 7 64-bit versionin addition to the 32-bit version that comes with Windows 7 because it says I already have a newer version! How stupid of MS!!!

First, how can the latest IE 9 64-bit  version from the official MS website for IE 9 be older???

Secondly, so WHAT if I have a newer one already installed! It is MY Personal Computer!!!!!

Thirdly, I have both of these running on my Vista 64-bit system with NO problems!!!!!!!!!!

Fourthly, it looks like the Vista developers do not talk to the Windows ones and have taken several stape backwards with IE for Windoes 7!

Did anyone ever find a way, maybe a registry edit, to turn this stupid tool off?

I have not worked on a solution for the yellow box as of yet.

However, if e-mail attachments will not show or open for you, try this solution?

Open an e-mail that has an attachment (paperclip showing but will not open)

My problem existed for 4 days in yahoo.

Solution:

> Tools

>Compatibility View Settings (window will open with your e-mail website highlited in prameter line)

>Select 'Add' to right and it will transfer the website into list of website in box below)

>Close

Voila! Your e-mails having attachments should now open with the attachment accessible.

I'll let you all know when I fix the Yellow 'safety' prompt box that appears upon opening.

*Please let me know if this has helped you?

HOW TO DISABLE "VIEW AND TRACK YOUR DOWNLOADS" IN IE9

Blocking Lync from Searching Outlook Contact Folders

We all know Lync has a great feature that it can search contacts from Outlook Contact Folders. But sometimes, we do not want the Lync Client to search Contacts from some specific Outlook Contact Folders.

[Requirements]
For example, in my scenario, I have personal contacts defined in Outlook and my Lync client shows both Lync enabled users and Outlook contacts in search results.

(There are three Contacts in two Contact Folders, TestUser2 in Contacts Folder, TestUser1 and TestUser3 in CS Folder)



Yes, everything works well. But now I do not want it to search Contacts from the CS folder.

[Solution]

For this example, I will create a new client policy and configure it to not search the Outlook "CS" folder. I create the policy by running:

New-CsClientPolicy –Identity "ExcludeOutlookContactFolder" –ExcludedContactFolders "CS"

Then assign the policy to the user "LyncDemo2" by running:

Grant-CsClientPolicy –Identity LyncDemo2 -PolicyName "ExcludeOutlookContactFolder"


Run Get-CsUser command to check if the policy is assigned to the User.

After the user receives the new client policy, the same search will not show the Outlook contacts from "CS" folder:

Important: Please make sure both the Outlook and Lync client are up to date. In my testing, I found it might not work with some previous versions.

The important note is unfortunately right, I'm testing it with Lync 2013 and Outlook 2010 and it does not work properly (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/it-IT/9684e545-d4cc-4fb3-b015-a1e37b28b1ff/exclude-outlook-contacts-from-lync-does-not-work?forum=lyncprofile).

No way to make it work also without the up to date version of Outlook?

how to debug Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4

Hello everyone

Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4 is an excellent software.

But there is problem with it. That is it does not allow to assign ZWNJ (Zero Width Non-Joiner)=U+200c to Shift+Space.

In Persian keyboards it is necessary to have ZWNJ on Shift+Space.

Please help me know how to edit/debug this program to allow for this.

There is no tech support for this tool from Microsoft. You should already read that from the download page.
