The sales order … is currently being processed by user …
An inbound IDOC was failing due to the error [described in the title]. Some research resulted in the following results:
TR: SM12 displayed a list of locked elements in the system.
TR: SM04 displayed a list of logged in users in the local system.
TR: SM08 displayed a list of logged in users in all the app-servers [not just the current system].
Unfortunately in my case non of the mentioned transactions above helped me narrow down where the user was locking the system – in the end I’ve requested for the user to log back in and kill his session with a TR: /nex.

Finally no spam
This blog has been plagued by constant spam comment postings, the other day I’ve checked the moderation log to see 1400 unmoderated posts. As you can imagine its very annoying and frustrating to see these things and practically impossible to go through and find proper comments.
So, I finally decided to do something about it and implemented Simple CAPTCHA plug in from WordPress library.
Today I have 0 spammed comments and I am very happy about it. So if you are in the same shoes don’t be lazy like I was and set it up asap.

Adobe Flex Builder 3 short dump [JVM terminated. Exit code=1...]
|
I was using Adobe Flex Builder 3 [AF3] for a few weeks now. I like what has been done with the application, the new functionality is very useful and there is a ton of new options that can be configured while designing your applications. Unforchunately similarly to it’s predecessor there are major bugs in AF3. A week ago for no apparent reason the application stopped working. Every time ran the application it threw a short dump before initializing the EDI. |
 |
I’ve tried reinstalling the application and even removed the old versions of JRE references. Nothing helped and just as before I had to rely to googling and looking at configuration files.
The problem lied in the small FlexBuilder.ini file located in the root installation directory. The contents of the file included the following settings:
-vmargs -Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:PermSize=64m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
I’ve modified the contents to exclude the last lines and vuala, the application went back to it’s usual state [sure I lost all my projects but its nice to have a working EDI once again].

Workaround for: “Click to activate and use this control” IE problem.
Those of you who have been found of putting up interesting controls on your web pages might have come across the ‘Click to activate and use this control’ bug that occurs in Internet explorer. If you do some searching you will find a lot of posts that require upgrade and an installation of a patch. Having explored the problem my self I offer you an alternative solution:
- Create a javascript function that is initiated when the page is loaded ‘onload’ event.
- Create a tag with a particular id somewhere on your page [lets say "fuzzy_object" for a sake of an argument].
- In your javascript function create a single string containing the specifications of your object [in my case it was an swf file].
- Perform the following: document.getElementById(‘fuzzy_object’).innerHTML = concatinated_string.
This is a tad generic but it should work. If not just let me know and I’ll post a more detailed solution.
