The button "Add" a Scheduled task does nothing? - nexus

When I click the "Add" button in the Scheduled Task section to add a scheduled task, nothing happens (the button is enabled). Tested in Chrome, FF en Safari on mac (latest versions)
I am using the "war" edition, running under tomcat 8.
Neither the nexus log file or the tomcat catalina.out log file is containing any nexus error. All the logging looks ok.
I am logged in as a user with the Nexus Administrator role with all Admin privileges.
Tomcat runs behind Apache and are connected through AJP Proxy.
Apparently Nexus uses the apache Basic credentials, as they are the same and when I logout in Nexus, the page refreshed and I am logged in again.
I upgraded to the latest nexus version 2.11.2-06, but that made no difference.
I thought it might be because I use the free community edition, but don't think that is the reason.
My installation contains a "remove old snapshots" task that runs fine.
How to solve this?

This should work just fine. I am a bit concerned that your Nexus is not working fully though since you are using the unsupported war file running it on Tomcat.
Another question to figure out will be if this problem occurs in all browsers or just a specific one.
You can contact us in the Nexus community for more detailed help.

Business Rule Composer (Not Responding)

I have BizTalk 2013r2 Dev VM with CU5 installed, apart from the this problem - the VM works great, I have several BizTalk apps deployed locally and all process ok.
When trying to load the Business Rule Composer, it displays but is unresponsive. The title bar reads Microsoft Business Rule Composer (Not Responding). At the foot of the page, in the status bar, there is the message "Loading...".
When I try to apply the CU6 update I get the following (see the Not Responding) in the title bar:
I have checked that all the usual suspect windows services are running, MSDTC, Sql Browser, SQl Server etc.
Any ideas what could be causing this? There are no clues in the Windows Event Log.
I was a able to fix this by running the BizTalk install MSI from the DVD image and selecting "Repair BizTalk"

can't find IIS 7.5 after resetting the user

This may be the dumbest question but I have a small problem I am using windows7 and recently I had an issue with my outlook as a result I had to recreate my profile on windows.
since that moment I can't see IIS7.5
I have also tried to use control pannel add windwos feature and I can only find IIS6
The strange thing about this is that I have files hosted in IIS7.5 and when I browse to the web Url(I use custom host) I can go there but creating a new website is impossible as I can't go to IIS 7.5
also browsing to Localhost gives me the indication that IIS7 is installed
What can I do?
I have tried also using the script from Microsoft site link but that wasn't successful and I am wondering what to do really.
also when I type Localhost on any browser I get the big image with IIS7 on it what suggest it is installed.
Just today using manage mycomputer(Win 7), service and application and restarted the IIS Admin service and now I can see the IIS7.5 as per the , but not sure why I can't see it in the accessories on when I do a search for IIS
Thanks
You could always download IIS 7.5 express from Microsoft
There is a similar post in super user forum discussing about the posted issue.
https://superuser.com/questions/752946/iis-manager-disappeared-from-start-menu-and-administrative-tools
Copied from there:
Your system is behaving in an abnormal manner, and it is hard to diagnose that error. It seems like it is caused by some system corruption.
The following tools can diagnose and fix errors in Windows :
sfc /scannow
Scans the integrity of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible.
System Update Readiness Tool for Windows
Scans for Windows corruption errors that prevent Windows updates and service packs from installing.
Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor
Scans hardware, devices, and installed programs for known compatibility issues, giving guidance on how to resolve potential issues found, and recommends what to do.
Windows Update fixit or Reset Windows Update components
then try again to turn off the IIS Windows feature, reboot, reinstall, reboot.
Full antivirus scan by your current product and in addition at least Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
If running these tools gives no hint as to the problem, the next step is a Repair Install to Fix Windows 7, which fixes the current installation of Windows while preserving user accounts, data, programs, and system drivers.
The last resort, to reinstall Windows from scratch, is not to be taken lightly unless really necessary.

VS2010 Debug web app causes "cannot start application" and "access denied" errors

When I try to debug my VS2010 web app (F5), the IE web browser windows pops up but then freezes, and my VS2010 IDE window pops up an error message:
Unable to start program 'http://localhost:nnnn/Login.aspx'.
Access is denied.
I'm running VS2010 (10.0.30319.1), targeted to ASP.NET 4.0 (4.0.30319), in non-administrator mode, with ASP.NET debugging enabled, on 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, with IE 9 (9.0.8112.16421 with update 9.0.29).
This web app and others I work with have been working just fine for several months, but they all started to misbehave in this manner a few weeks ago. At first, the first time I tried to debug (F5) I'd get the error, but after clearing it and closing the IE window and trying F5 again a second time, the browser would come up just fine. I assumed it was just some glitch, so I tolerated it.
Lately, though it has gotten worse, to the point that 90% of my attempts and re-attempts to debug the web app cause a hung browser and the error. It sometimes works, but most times it doesn't. I have to kill the handing iexplorer.exe processes to clean up my user space, otherwise I eventually get a message about not having enough files to start the browser. I try rebuilding, stopping the ASP.NET Development Server process, even exiting VS2010 and restarting it, but I can't seem to find the magic sequence of events to get it to work.
If I start without debug (Shift-F5), it works, but two IE web browser windows are opened, and both attach to the web app. I don't know if this is related to the first problem. And needless to say, this does not really allow me to debug my code. I tried attaching to either of the IE processes, but I still could not get the debugger to actually debug the executing app. (There is a message about no symbols being loaded for the attached process.)
Most of the solutions for this problem I've found say something about running with administrator access. I cannot do this, however; I work at a large financial company, and developers are not allowed to have local admin rights on our PCs. I don't control system patches, but I can request Help Desk ticket to resolve the problem; but I'd like to resolve this problem myself if it is a fairly simple configuration problem on my part.
Addendum
I should also add that I am not using IIS (because I don't have it installed on my system, and I can't use it anyway because I don't have local admin rights), but instead I am using the built-in Visual Studio Development Server. I've also selected a specific HTTP port number for it to use. Also, all of the directories I'm been using were created by me (as part of my project workspace), so there should be no access permission problems.
Like I said, I can sometimes get a debugging web session started, but most of the time I can't. So whatever is causing this problem, it is probably something intermittent.
This tend to occur when you try to run the full version of IIS rather than the Visual Studio Web Server or IIS Express. Have you tried running IIS Express instead? I think there's support for IIS Express that came with one of the later updates to VS 2010?
IIS proper definitely requires full admin rights in order to attach a debugger because full IIS runs under a system account rather than your own account. IIS Express (as well as the Visual Studio Web Server) however should run under your own user account and so debugging should work on the local machine even with a non-admin account.
One issue that might cause problems is directory permissions. Make sure that the folder where your Web files live are read/execute accessible through the file system for your user account.
Finally make sure you don't have some other instance of a Web service running on the same HTTP port.
I am having the same issue, it works when i don't choose to debug but CTRL+F5 to start it. F5 Debugger al

How can I copy files with ASP.Net using Vista and IIS7?

I have a button on a website that creates a directory and copys a file. I developed it using Visual Studio 2008, ASP.Net 3.5. I am running Vista as my OS. The website uses identiy impersonation.
The functionality doesn't work ("Access to Path XYZ is denied") when:
I run the website via IE hitting the local webserver
The functionality works fine when [note Visual Studio run with Admin rights]:
I hit play in Visual Studio
I say view in Browser from Visual Studio
I run the website via IE hitting the local webserver, but start IE with Admin rights
I deploy the website onto another webserver (also vista/IIS7)
I modify FireFox to accept integrated authentication, then access via FireFox and localhost
I've never seen this behavior before, previously File.Copy type commands only cared that the rights on the folder being copied to were valid etc... (I have Everyone having full control while trying to debug this situation). It seems likely that the issue is having Admin rights or not? Or being logged in to the machine that it is running on?
What is happening here? Why does it work in the development environment and deployed to another machine, but not work when deployed on my own machine? Seems very odd, any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I've added "Everyone" to all of the relvant directories and give that user Full Control, so there shouldn't be any permission issues?
You should try giving permission to modify over asp.net
you can find several articles about that by google(ing) it.
More likely the user that IIS is running impersonated thread under does not have access to the original file or the destination. Have you tried doing the copy directly as that user? When you run IE as administrator or running VS as administrator the impersonated user has full rights as admin.
[Edit - add link]
There is some info on a similar thread, the idea to use SysInternals was good:
UnauthorizedAccessException with IIS7
OK I have tracked down the solution to this issue given these symptoms. I'm not 100% sure why this works (particularly since it works fine in FireFox and works fine in IE if you not connecting locally), but the following seems to be a work-around.
In IE select Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Trusted Sites -> Sites and add http://localhost as a trusted site. This then enables you to use the website locally. Why you need to do this in IE when connecting locally and not in FireFox or IE when connecting to another machine is something I don't know. But it does seem to be a viable workaround.
My guess is the identity ASP.Net is running under doesn't have permissions (NetworkService) or the user used for anonymous authentication does have permission (IUSR)

Visual Studio "Unable to start debugging on the web server. The web server did not respond in a timely manner."

I get the following error pretty regularly when compiling in Visual Studio and running my web application:
"Unable to start debugging on the web server. The web server did not respond in a timely manner. This may be because another debugger is already attached to the web server."
Normally this is after having debug the application once already. From the command line I run "iisreset /restart" and it fixes the problem.
How do I prevent this from happening in the first place?
The solution that worked for me:
Open Command Prompt (Run as Administrator)
Write iisreset /restart
Now, go back to your VS and debug. It will debug your solution.
It worked for Visual Studio 2013 and 2015 too in my case.
I find that this happens if I'm debugging with Firefox as my browser. When I exit Firefox the VS2005/8 debug session doesn't terminate. I have not found a solution for this (yet).
If this is what's happening with you then a quicker solution than running iisreset is to hit Shift-F5 when in Visual Studio and this will terminate the current debug session. You can then hit F5 and this will start a new debug session.
After trying all of the proposed solutions here and in other places (at least 10 different approaches), the only option that worked for me was:
delete website and application pool on IIS
re-create website and application pool on IIS (in my case, everything exactly the same config as before)
PS: I am using VS 2013 and IIS 7.5 (Win7).
I hope this saves someone else a few hours.
Go to task manager and end process aspnet_wp.exe before running application
I have had this problem a couple times. One time it was resolved by taking Guy's advice:
If this is what's happening with you then a quicker solution than running iisreset is to hit Shift-F5 when in Visual Studio and this will terminate the current debug session. You can then hit F5 and this will start a new debug session.
On a separate occasion I had to: terminate all my IIS worker processes in the windows task manager (w3wp.exe*). You should be able to hit f5 in visual studio to debug.
It sounds like you are probably hitting F5 in Visual Studio when you receive this error?
There are a few things you can try. The easiest is to hit the Stop button before hitting F5. Optionally, when you are finished debugging and starting to make changes you can go to the Debug menu and choose either Stop Debugging or Terminate All.
We use another way of debugging, we never use F5 anymore.
We use a macro kind of like: http://blogs.conchango.com/howardvanrooijen/archive/2007/06/24/Attach-to-Web-Server-Macro-for-Visual-Studio.aspx (Which we bound to F6).
This way you simply attach the debugger to IIS. It's (depending on project size) much quicker to make you changes, compile a single project that you changed and attach the debugger again.
When debugging 2 web application (1 MVC and 2 is MVC WebAPI) that are both hosted in the local IIS.
Make sure that each application is using a different application pool.
I encountered the same issue and as soon as I change the app pool of the other one, it worked!
I saw this message first time in my life and I was very confused about what is going on as it is not pretty obvious what to do.
I ran iisreset and it took just 1 sec to finish the execution, and boom, I was back into the game.
P.S. I am using chrome
Hit Shift+F5 when in Visual Studio and this will terminate the current debug session. You can then hit F5 and this will start a new debug session.
or
close your application, reset iis then open your application and run it
For me I had two visual studio open. The debugger already was attached to another visual studio :). I stopped it on the first one and was able to attach on the second visual studio.
Very basic - but check that if you try to run the web site from IIS by clicking on "Browse", the site actually runs.
It sounds like something is eating up your web server's resources. Perhaps you have some resources (file handlers, wcf proxies) that are being opened and not closed? I've had this happen to me specifically when I was not closing WCF client proxy connections.
The problem is not necessarily that you have a debugger attached, but only that the web server is not responding in a timely manner. Note that the message says "This may be because another debugger is attached".
If you have a lot of break points this will slow the debugging process down, so remove unneeded break points and close the Autos window this will solve your problem
The issue is normally there when an another instance of iexplore is still running. I used to have the issue when my IE crashes but I can still see it in the Task Manager. Once you "End Process" everything is back to normal :)
I ran into this issue when trying to debug (2) separate solutions in VS.NET and both were using the IIS Web Server to launch the app. The 1st application will start, but any subsequent applications started that also run via IIS will then display that error. It seems that it can only debug a single application via VS.NET hosted in IIS at a time.
The solution: run project 1 from VS.NET (place any needed breakpoints) and start the second application directly from IIS (not VS.NET). Your breakpoints in App 1 (running in VS.NET) will be hit when accessing App 2 (ran from IIS directly).
This happens to me quite a bit in VS 2010 express - Usually because the debugger stopped responding.
Right click windows taskbar, select 'Start Task Manager'. More than likely the ASP.NET debugger will be showing a 'not responding' status. Select it and simply terminate the process.
Done!
With me it happened when IE was upgraded to newer version, went to Installed Updates, removed new version of IE, after computer restarted it went back to old version and problem with debugging was solved
Had the same problem, even after a reboot. Basically did this:
Restart IIS
Clean Solution
Rebuild Solution
Then it started working again.
This can also be caused if your website uses a database connection but the database server is unavailable.
I spent some time trying to resolve this issue in the usual ways, but even after restarting my workstation, the issue remained. Eventually I found that the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service was not running.
It should have been running, as it's set to Automatic, but it was stopped, even after the reboot. All the MSSQLSERVER events in the event log appeared normal, so it remains unknown why it wasn't running, but I have now set it to Automatic (delayed start) in the hope that this will reduce resource contention during startup.
Once I started MSSQLSERVER , the message "Unable to start debugging on the web server. The web server did not respond in a timely manner" no longer appeared and normal service was resumed.
I had to recreate the site/application/virtual directory to make it work after I installed vs2015 update3. Hope this helps someone. ;)
I know this is an old question, but I met the same situation recently and try every solution in this post, and no luck. Finally, I found the solution that works for me:
Close Visual Studio
Find Turn Windows features on or off in Control Panel
Uncheck Internet Information Services in the popup dialog
Restart your computer
Check Internet Information Services in the same dialog, and make sure Internet Information Service -> World Wide Web Services -> Application Development Features -> ASP.NET also been checked
Open Visual Studio, and now your application should be able to run in debug mode
Open
Options and Settings Under the debug
Symbols and unchecked Microsoft Symbol Servers
build solution
iisreset
F5 solution
(Be sure Microsoft Symbol Servers unchecked again)
This worked for me by #mtkachenko
Visual Studio 2012: Unable to attach the process. A debugger is already attached
"I have installed Debug Diagnostic Tool v2.0 and as a result I have Debug Diagnostic Service which is started automatically and attached to one of w3wp processes. After turning off and disabling this service all works fine. So if you get such error check processes in task manager which can capture your w3wp process"
I got it worked by creating a new ApplicationPool in the IIS Server and pointing my application to the new ApplicationPool. I have also deleted the old ApplicationPool
This answer will only apply if you are running your solution through IIS. You will know if this applies to you IF you open up your website/project by doing the following:
From within visual studio-->Open Website--> Local IIS -->Select your project
This error Kicked my butt for 4 hours but finally I found an answer. I first attempted the iisreset /restart. This seemed to slightly help but still received the same error.
What worked for me was going (xp machine) to add/remove programs --> Add/Remove Windows Components--> Click on IIS--> Click on "Details". Be sure to have Front Page Extensions installed if you are debugging through IIS.
If all the answers does not work for you, just end process all IIS related components in task manager. This is what worked for me.
I just solved this problem on my machine.
My problem is that I upgraded IE 9 To IE 10 and I got this error.
Solution : Remove IE 10 and downgrade to IE 9.
Go to "Programs and Features" --> "View recent updates" --> find IE 10---> Uninstall it-->reboot--->ie 9 is back--->debug--->works OK.
Try performing either of the following steps to resolve your issue:
Restart your IIS Server
Clean the Solution of your project then build again
If above steps do not help, you can finally try restarting your machine
In your cmd type iisreset and press enter after that your iis is reset and your application is working perfectly
