ArangoDB failed to initialize the database password - arangodb

Win7 64+ArangoDB 3.4.2 server NSIS
The installation failed and the error is "failed initialize the database passord"
I have tried with the methods this web mentioned https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/arangodb/DCN6vECW1tI
but it doesn't work.

Stackoverflow is not well suited for bugreports, so most probably this page will be deleted anytime soon.
Please use https://github.com/arangodb/arangodb/issues herefore.
I just tried with an english version of Windows 7 installed via Win7_Pro_SP1_English_x64.iso.
I tried to install ArangoDB with an empty password and password a and both worked out without errors.
Please describe what exactly you did (like installation directory, password, etc.) and better open a github issue.
Please note that meanwhile ArangoDB 3.4.3 is available, which I used for my tests.

I have the same problem, I use windows 10 PRO x64 in Polish language version.
I set the installation directory as (c:\ArangoDB\v3.6.1-comunity) but i try too with default setings,
and I gave the password "pass20"

Cannot uninstall / repair / install Node.JS to my system

I installed node.js to work on a discord bot with VSCode but it didn't work.
I reinstalled it but ticked the 'install chocolatey' box this time, halfway through the installation I got 3 trojan alerts from my AV, and cancelled the installation.
Since then, I have been unable to uninstall, repair or reinstall Node.JS, through the Windows 10 uninstall function or from the Node.JS .msi file.
Each time I try, I get the same error message:
"The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed."
I've removed all instances of Node.JS from my program files and %appdata%, I've ensure the Installer Service is running, and yet the Node.JS application still shows in the Uninstall Tool and when I try to uninstall / modify / reinstall, it shows the same error, and seems to think it's still installed on my system! Not even Node.JS commands work in my CMD!
I've got no idea how to fix this, and I don't want to use glitch anymore to write my bot, so please help- or it seem's I'll have to factory reset my PC and hope that resolves the issue.
Thanks in advance, guys.
Godspeed.
EDIT: I tried installing a newer version hoping it would overwrite old Node.JS files. Didn't work. Issue still occurring.
Do these:
Open command prompt as Administrator and run /sfc scannow. It will scan and replace corrupted files.
Restart your PC when the scan is done.

Pycharm 2017.2.4 always runs Querying skeleton update in background

Whenever I restart pycharm it starts with Querying skeleton update process in the background even when I have not changed/modified or updated any of my python libraries. I am using Anaconda 5.0 as my default and only python version installed on the system.
Due to this process it takes too long for pycharm to respond initially after launching the application.
Is there any setting to not run this update when there are no changes made to the python library or will I have to disable it.
Are there any settings or changes that I am missing?
I also have attached the log file generated.
EDIT:
Issue is still same with the 2017.3.1, 2018 version of Pycharm.
From the log I wonder if the problem is not related to permissions with which you run PyCharm vs. the ones you installed it with.
Not found pregenerated skeletons at C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PyCharm
2017.2.3\skeletons\skeletons-win-401-python-3.6.2.zip
I do not have this problem and the file above exists in my install of PyCharm (version PyCharm Community Edition 2018.1.1) installed at roughly the same location has the file in: C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PyCharm Community Edition 2018.1.1\skeletons\skeletons-win-401-python-3.6.2.zip
In your case PyCharm attempted to read the collected skeletons from your profile folder and it seems it failed and continued regenerating them:

Please attempt to run as Administrator to see if the behaviour is different. If it is then it is likely related to permissions.
The issue has been known for a while (since 2011) but no solution was offered.
to any one having this problem :
disable antivirus and run it administrator mode and it's solved , i tired million thing and this is the only thing worked for me .
my version 2022.1.2 and good luck everyone

Nodejs - Another installation is in progress

System - Win 7 64 bit.
Nodejs - node-v6.9.4-x64.msi
Installation error - Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one.
Solutions that did NOT work - Run as admin, Run via commandline as admin, log had same error i saw in installer, don't install online docs option,
Please help me to fix this. Thank you !
This will not be an issue with your NodeJs installation, it might be because of your previous installation (might be any other software) which might be still in progress or not exit properly.
To solve your issue, please try restarting your machine once and install. This will indirectly kill your previous unstable installation and allow you to install NodeJs
I had this issue with '2017-03-21, Version 6.10.1 'Boron' (LTS)'. Restarting my PC solved the issue.
P.S. However, this issue seems to be specific to the NodeJs installer. I tried installing other programs after the NodeJs installation threw up this error and they installed fine (even before the restart).

Installing a oracle forms development machine

After working with Oracle databases and Apex for many years, I want to get some knowledge about Oracle forms & reports, because they are still quite widely used.
I've never seen Oracle forms & reports, so I want to create a development installation for learning purposes. Unfortunately installing Oracle forms seems a bit more tedious than I expected and I'm a bit stuck.
Windows installation
I first tried installing Oracle 12c (from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/downloads/index.html) on windows 7 x64. I installed the "Standalone forms builder", because when I chose "Forms and reports deployment", I got this error:
After installation I tried to start frmbld.exe, but immediately got this error:
FRM-91135: fatal error: message file D:\oracle\client\user123\product\12.1.0\client_1\forms\mesg\fmcus.msb not found
My oracle client is installed in that directory, but the mentioned file is certainty not there.
linux installation
Googling around I did not find any solution for this problem, so i decided to switch to a Linux virtual box machine. I installed Oracle linux x64 and then installed with a download from the same page again.
Once more I could only choose "Standalone forms builder", when I chose "Forms and reports deployment" I got exactly the same error as on windows. The installation ran successful.
After installation I tried to start formbuilder, this time I was presented this error:
./frmbld: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So now I'm a bit stuck. My questions are:
Am I going the right way with the way I'm trying to install Oracle forms? or is there a better / easier way?
Do I need a "Forms and reports deployment" to be able to experiment with Oracle forms? or is the standalone installation the right way to go?
Are there any pre-installed virtual machines available for this? (I googled but couldn't find anything.)
Do I need a running Oracle database to be able to experiment with Oracle forms?
Linux installation:
Yes you are going the correct path installing Forms/Reports. There is no easier install method (Oracle does not have a prebuilt VM with Forms/Reports).
You will require an Oracle database to connect to.
To fix the linux error you will need to install additional OS packages, probably motif - you can run (to find the packages required): yum whatprovides libXm*
I have installed Forms Builder 12c (standalone install) on Fedora and it is working correctly.
The windows error might be related to you OS PATH ENV - if you have any other Oracle products installed, the PATH order may need to be changed, put the Forms related paths at the beginning.
Unfortunately I was unable to get it properly working with my previous attempts. In the end I restarted an installed a windows 10 x64 virtual machine, after which i followed these excellent video's to get everything working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tgtHPJGc7o

Legacy Cywgin Installation Using Cywgin Time Machine Failing (Unable to get setup-2.ini)

I am attempting to download an older version of Cygwin (1.7.16) in order to compile an open source project (Dummynet - windows port).
The only way i found of doing so is by using a project known as Cygwin Time Machine.
In order to use this i downloaded the cygwin 1.7 installer from 'ftp://www.fruitbat.org/pub/cygwin/setup/1.7/setup-1.7.exe', and when prompted for a download site, added 'ftp://www.fruitbat.org/pub/cygwin/circa/2012/08/20/222043'. However, the download fails with the following error :
Unable to get setup-2.ini from
ftp://www.fruitbat.org/pub/cygwin/circa/2012/08/20/222043
Im looking for help in getting past this error, or any other alternative way of installing Cywgin 1.7.16 (Aug 20, 2012).
The Admin at Cygwin Time Machine was kind enough to point me to the solution. The issue can be resolved by downloading the cygwin setup exe from cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe and starting it with the -X option. Once started, one may choose any cygwin 1.7.* snapshot url from the cygwin time machine site and add that as the mirror to download and install cygwin from.
