I am facing difficulties activating InDesign CS6 server

$
0
0

I'd like to share with you my frustration about InDesign CS6 Server which tries to do the very same as shown above, but apparenty noone at Adobe did think about the fact that ID Server has NO GUI. So as a customer youre left with an Installation that provides NO means for later offline activation, but provides the very same link at installation, basically guiding you through a process that can not be accomplished with ID Server by any means.

Moreover, the Installer claims there is a 7-day grace period until you MUST have activated your license but even with entering a valid code the Server wont start from second ONE, stating "Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit". This sort of misdesign is what makes customers furious! And then they wonder why people use circumvention technologies.


InDesign Server CS6 block update image links

$

Hello,

 

I try to script my InDesign Server CS6 to do not update image links (from images which edited since last opening of layout document). The default setting is that the image links will automatically be updated when opening the document.

 

I found a parameter in the scripting documentation and tried this in a InDesign jsx script. The parameter is also available for InDesignServer.

 

In the InDesign script it works to set

 

app.linkingPreferences.checkLinksAtOpen = false;

 

When I try to use this parameter in my InDesignServer script the server do not ust this setting an updates all images in the document.

 

Has anyone an idea to solve this?

ExtendScript Toolkit cannot launch InDesign CS6 Server

$

I have installed the trial version of InDesign Server CS6 on Windows 2008 and am trying to run scripts against it using the ExtendScript Toolkit, but it is not working. When I select "Adobe InDesign CS6 Server" from the drop-down list in the upper left, I get an alert box that says "Cannot launch target Adobe InDesign CS6 Server!". When expanding the details box it just repeats that same message.

 

I can start InDesign fine using either the command line or the windows service and it responds to requests. As far as I can see, it is just ExtendScript that is having problems with it.

 

I have combed through the event logs and can't find anything there indicating what the problem might be. I have also googled everything I can think of looking for a solution with no luck.

 

Has anyone else run into this? Any suggestions on a solution or at least where I might be able to track down a useful error message that says why it can't launch InDesign?

Can I redirect the stdout and stderr pipes to a file?

Hi, All,

Glad to find that there is a specific forum to discuss InDesign Server.

I'm wondering how to redirect the stdout and stderr pipes of InDesign Server to a file. Any ideas?

Thanks very much.

ScriptArgs attached to an EnqueueJob command in LBQ

$
0
0

Hello,

I'm currently using a soapClient in php to launch indesign server commands on instances with specific ports.

******

$myHost = $host . ':' . $port;

 

$myWSDL ="$myHost/Service?wsdl";

 

$client = new SoapClient($myWSDL, array('trace' => true, 'encoding' => 'utf-8', 'location' => $myHost));

 

$scriptArgs = array( array("name" => "xmlStr", "value" => $xml));

 

$script_parameters = array("scriptFile" => "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server x64\Scripts\script.jsxbin", "scriptArgs" => $scriptArgs, "scriptLanguage" => 'javascript');

 

$script_data = array("runScriptParameters" => $script_parameters);

 

$result = $client -> RunScript($script_data);


******

$xml is a xml string and I pass this argument to my script.


I now want to use the load balancing approach and I successfully launched 4 instances.

How can I pass my scriptArgs (or xml) as parameter to the LBQ http://XX.XX.XX.XX:8080/com.adobe.clover.application/api/idsqueue/EnqueueJob ?


In the documentation, I read that:

"The EnqueueJob command does not provide a mechanism for including script arguments. A workaround for this is to either write the values into the script or generate a script with the parameters written into it that calls the intended script using the app.doScript command. This approach is demonstrated in the AIR client included in the InDesign CS5 Server SDK."


But I have no idea  how to do that with my structure.


Do you have any suggestions or solutions?


Thanks!

Adobe Typekit fonts not found

$

I have an instance of InDesign Server CC 2014 set up on configuration_noport that happily finds my Adobe Typekit fonts, If I run the Indesign server as a service using the same configuration none of my Typekit fonts are found.  I am running the service as the same user as my Desktop user, and also have tried rebooting the box with no success.

 

Does anyone have any ideas how I can force the service to be able to find the Typekit fonts?

 

Thanks.

InDesign Server doesn't recognize network paths

$

I have successfully installed and tested the InDesign Server. It is up and listening on port 800. Now I'm trying to run sampleclient commands into it with some javascripts.

 

Here is the line I'm passing to it via command line:

 

sampleclient -host 10.10.1.1:800 "C:\TEMP\script.jsx" arg0="C:\TEMP\file.indd" arg1="C:\TEMP\file.pdf"

 

This works.

 

Now I'm passing this:

 

sampleclient -host 10.10.1.1:800 "C:\temp\script.jsx" arg0="\\server\TEMP\file.indd" arg1="\\server\TEMP\file.pdf"

 

And it gives an error 48 - Cannot find a folder.

 

The server is visible from both machines and the path is the same.

 

I tried double slashes but that didn’t help either.

 

It just says: Cannot find the folder “\\server\folder\file.pdf”

 

What is odd is that file.pdf is not a folder so I’m not sure why it refers to is as “folder”.

 

Any ideas?

Japanese Crop Marks on IDS output?

$
0
0

I am currently implementing an IDS solution in Tokyo. Japanese crop marks are required by my client to be on all outputs, laser printed and X1A PDFs. My solution works fine in InDesign workstation, marks are what they should be. However in IDS I get north american crop marks and the layout name slug is unprintable because it includes Japanese characters. I was told there is no Pacific rim version of IDS, but there appear to be one for InDesign. The menu for Japanese Crop marks is visible in the Japanese localized machines I work with but not in the north american machines, Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

We have installed Indesign CC Server 2014 Debug on a 2008 R2 Windows Server for testing. This is the version we were told we had to use in a development environment. The installation went smoothly, however, when I try t

start the service with SOAP enabled (InDesignServer -port 12345) I get the following attached error. Actually I get the error anytime I try to start the service from the command prompt with or without the -port parameter. The service will start from Windows Service Manager, however, I does not seem to take the -port parameter in the options dialog.

indesign server cs6 10 seconds to delay

$

之前使用flex+Indesign Server cs5.5 开发了一个针对indd文件的编辑器,使用的java调用Indesign Server cs5.5服务。后来编辑器需要升级为支持indd6文件的版本,由于Indesign Server cs6不再支持java语言,所以使用了JavaScript语言调用Indesign Server cs6服务。版本升级完成后,测试发现所有的功能都能实现,只是JavaScript在调用Indesign Server cs6时,会有10秒的延时时间。每一次调用,服务器都会等待10秒钟才执行,是什么原因呢?

Indesign Server cs6是否存在相关的等待时间配置项呢?

 

Hey everyone!

 

Previously we used flex + Indesign Server cs5.5 to develop an editor for indd file, use the java call Indesign Server cs5.5 service. Later editors need to be upgraded to support indd6 file versions .As Indesign Server cs6 no longer  supported java language, so we used  the JavaScript language calling Indesign Server cs6 service. After the version upgrade is complete, the test found that all of the functions can be realized .only in the invocation Indesign Server cs6 JavaScript, there will be 10 seconds of delay time. Each call, the server will wait 10 seconds before execution, What is the reason for it?

whether Indesign Server cs6  has a  associated configuration items  like waittime or not ?

InDesign Server as Mac OS Daemon

I'm trying to configure a Launchd plist for an IDS instance. I can get the process running just fine as user agent, but I want it to run unattended. the problem so far, as I can determine, is where IDS puts configuration preferences:

 

/users/[user_name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign Server/Version 5.0/[configuraion_name]

 

When launched from Root at startup it never seems to see the configuration perf. I've even tried launching IDS from within the Pref folder. Unfortunately Adobe's documentation is a little thin on this topic.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated

 

j.

 

the current plist I'm working with looks like this:

 

 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<plist version="1.0">

Memory purge

$

When InDesignServer (CS3) is continuously running for a couple of days on our test server, we get the following output messages: (every few minutes)

 

WARN  [server] Memory Purge: 889 MB available, 670 MB physical, 244 MB available physical bytes

 

From this point IDServer is also very slow.

 

Can someone explain? Does it mean that there's not enough memory available? It seems odd that this can happen because every script always closes the InDesign files before completion..

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am a newbie to InDesign Server and would like to know what is the default color management policy in InDesign Server. I need to replicate our color management policy installed on our desktop machines which is:

RGB: Preserve embedded profiles

CMYK: Preserve numbers (ignore linked profiles)

 

Thanks!
