Well let’s say you have an error that brings down all your WCS installation and you do not have a recent backup. What can you do? How can you recover the DB?
For this there is a simple answer but first let’s take a minute to analyze the WCS structure. It’s made from three primary components:
In the recent days I’ve had problems with our install of Cisco Wireless Control Station v6.0.196.0. After a system restart, the service did not start and no apparent reasons where given to the user.
The Cisco support wasn’t of much help too, as apparently did not encounter the error before.
Whenever I tried to start the WCS via the batch file the result was an error:
Java Virtual Machine Launcher: Could not find the main class: com.zerog.lax.LAX .
In fact all the batch files associated with the control functions of the WCS (START SERVER / STOP SERVER / DATABASE BACKUP / RESTORE) presented the same error when started.
Also trying to start the WCS service, via the computer management console, did not helped as the service terminated unexpectedly (error 1067).

I was reading on Softpedia today that the number of infected websites almost doubled in the second quarter of 2010 (http://news.softpedia.com/news/Number-of-Infected-Websites-Almost-Doubled-During-the-Second-Quarter-156591.shtml).
So I was thinking about some methods on how someone can easily scan a web address and I have found some addresses that one can visit:
Yep! It finally strike them that it does not matter how safe you make a system (not that Windows is the safest system around – but it’s over Apple for example http://news.softpedia.com/news/Macs-Are-Probably-Easier-to-Hack-than-Windows-PCs-Notorious-Hacker-Says-155507.shtml ) the human that uses the system will finally have the final word!
I was troubleshooting the other days on a server that had these errors in the (C:\WINDOWS\(SysWOW64/system32)\CCM\Logs\) execmgr.log log.
