Configure SAML Single Sign-On to work with Okta and just in-time provisioning.

  • Okta Directory
  • Your Atlassian application must be accessible via HTTPS. (read more about it in the Atlassian documentation, i.e. for Jira or Confluence)

Video Guide

The video below is an installation guide for setting up our SAML SSO app with Okta (watch on YouTube).

Step-by-Step Setup Guide

Find below a detailed guide on how to complete the setup of the SAML Single Sign On app with Okta and just in-time provisioning,
meaning that users from Okta are automatically created and updated in your Atlassian application, when signing in via Okta and SAML SSO.

Install the SAML SSO app

In your Atlassian product, open the in-product marketplace as described in the Atlassian documentation.
Search for "resolution saml" and click "Install" for SAML Single Sign On (SSO) by resolution Reichert Network Solutions GmbH

After the installation is complete, click on Manage, then choose Configure

Now, you are on the Add-on / app configuration page and the first step of the setup wizard will appear.

Configure SAML SSO app

Should you not have clicked on Configure immediately after the installation of the SAML SSO app:

To start the wizard and to configure Okta as your new identity provider, navigate to the administration console for
Jira or Confluence.

Confluence: search for USERS & SECURITY under which you'll find SAML Single Sign On
Jira: navigate to the User management tab in which you'll find SAML Single Sign On

Click on it and the wizard start page will show.

Add new Identity Provider (IdP)

Click on Add new IdP to start the wizard.

Adding a new IdP can also be done outside the wizard in the app configuration section Identity Providers

Select Okta as IdP Type.
You may also change the name and add a description. The name needs to be unique.
Click on Next.

Retrieve SAML Metadata for Okta

Copy the Single sign-on URL from the screen, you'll need it in your Okta configuration web console. Click on Next.

Configure Okta

Create Application

Now it's time to head over to Okta. Make sure you're logged in as Admin. Choose Applications from the menu bar:

Click on Add Application

Click on Create New App

Select Web as platform and choose SAML 2.0 as Sign on method in the Create a New Application Integration screen.
Click Create.

Provide a meaningful App name an click next

Paste the Single Sign-On URL to both the Single sign on URL and the Audience URI (SP Entity ID) field:

Okta Attributes for Creating Users with Just In-Time Provisioning

Below in the ATTRIBUTE STATEMENTS (OPTIONAL) section you need to define the three attributes needed for
just in-time provisioning as per below screenshot:

Okta Attributes for handling Groups with Just In-Time Provisioning

Add groups as attribute name in the GROUP ATTRIBUTE STATEMENTS (OPTIONAL) section so that Okta sends
the groups as SAML attribute for just-in-time provisioning.

Change the filter type to Matches regex and add .* as regular expression so that all groups are sent or add another
regular expression and/ or change the filter type via the dropdown:

Click Next once finished.

Complete Okta Configuration

Step 3 is just providing feedback to Okta. Choose your option and click Finish

You'll be redirected to the Sign on tab from which you can copy the Identity Provider metadata by right clicking the
link of the same name.

You also need to define which users and/ or groups should be allowed to sign in via SAML SSO in Okta via the app you've created.
Switch to the Groups tab and add one ore more groups the users who should sign in with SSO are members of.

The simplest example, like below, would be to allow the group Everyone access to the app.
You could also assign individual people via the People tab to your app.

Import SAML IdP Metadata

It's time to resume configuration on the SAML SSO side. Take the Okta metadata link you've just copied and paste it
into the Metadata URL field in the corresponding field of the Import SAML IdP Metadata wizard screen still open.

User ID attribute and transformation

It's recommended to leave this option checked.

Click on Next.

User creation and update

This part of the configuration defines how just in-time provisioning is working, creating users not in the Atlassian application, but in Okta that is.

  • select Update from SAML-Attributes as User Update Method
  • check the Create New Users box
  • select a directory to create the new users in, usually the default user directory
  • if you want, you could also update users who were not created by the SAML SSO app by checking the corresponding box
  • enter {first} {last} as Full Name Attribute

  • enter email as Email Attribute

Click Save & Next to proceed.

Scroll down to the Group Settings.

Add the group as the attribute to read the groups from as configured earlier in Okta.

Depending on your Atlassian product, it is a good idea to set default user groups for new users,
such as jira-software-users for Jira or confluence-users for Confluence.
Without assigning new users to the product specific group, they are not able to use your Atlassian product.

Also, feel free to activate any option which suits your needs.

Back to Top

Test configuration of SAML SSO app

The last step when adding the Okta IdP is a test which can be executed by clicking on the corresponding Start test button.

Copy the link displayed and paste it into a new incognito/ private browsing window, and execute a login with your Identity Provider.

Please remember that ...

  • the user your are testing with needs to be assigned to the SSO app you've just created in Okta
  • the user also needs to exist in your Atlassian application already, since we are not using just in-time provisioning here
    (part of the Okta with Just-In-Time Provisioning tutorial)

The status of the authentication process is permanently updated in the window.

If there is any error at this point you need help with, please refer to the troubleshooting guide, which will also help us, should you open a support ticket with us.
Of course the test window above will display a lot of information about the errors already, but requires some deeper knowledge of the SAML protocol.

Back to Top

Enable login redirection

The last step of adding Okta as your new IdP is to configure redirect options.
Selecting Enable SSO Redirect will ensure that users are getting redirected to be logged in via SAML,
instead via the login form as before the SSO setup.

The Override Logged Out URL Method can be left at the default option.
It will redirect users after log out to a default page where they can login again via username and password or SSO again.

Save & Close to complete the setup and close the wizard. You are now ready to use Okta with SAML SSO in your Atlassian application.

If Enable SSO Redirect is enabled, you can login to your Atlassian application manually by browsing to the URL that fits your Atlassian application as listed below.
Use this URL, if you need to login a local user unknown to the Okta or if there are any issues with Single Sign On.

  • Jira: https://<baseurl>/login.jsp?nosso
  • Confluence: https://<baseurl>/login.action?nosso
  • Bitbucket: https://<baseurl>/login?nosso
  • Bamboo 5: https://<baseurl>/userlogin!default.action?nosso
  • Bamboo 6: https://<baseurl>/userlogin!doDefault.action?nosso

Revision as of 22:10, 10 May 2017

Got tired of seeing my name in red in the recent changes....

I'm a graphic designer who purchased a (used) ShapeOko w/ the intention of automating some woodworking projects and extending my capabilities, esp. hoping to build my own custom brass hardware (and tools) so as to not be limited to what's available for purchase commercially.

I'm an admin on the wiki here, so glad to help out w/ any edits or other issues.

Author of The Rules of ShapeOko.

Rework materials feeds and speeds page with horizontal table structure:

SO3 1/4 | SO3 1/8 | Nomad 1/8 | SO2

¼″ Drive Shaft Upgrade

  • ¼″ pulley
  • ¼″ aluminum rod
  • ¼″ flanged bearing (use a tapered reamer to enlarge the hole to 13/16″ so that the bearing fits directly, alternately make a bearing plate out of a dimensionally stable material such as hdPe))
  • 5mm--¼″ coupler
  • 4 7/32″ 1.5″ roll pins and 4 ½″ aluminum spacers (used as motor stand-offs) --- will eventually replace w/ 2″ roll pin
  • 4 M3 screws 50mm long
  • an assortment of washers

Other Upgrades

Since implemented double MakerSlide X-Axis, Acme Screw Z-axis and 1m Y upgrades.

  • drill new holes to rotate X and Y motors 45 degrees --- DONE!
  • drill new holes in X gantry plate to invert belt --- DONE!
  • use 10 1″ spacers for carriage--gantry plate --- DONE! but they wouldn't fit over the nifty new bolts, so had to use pan head screws and only used 6 spacers and an assortment of washers
  • enlarge motor shaft hole in Y motor plate to accommodate moving pulley to outside --- DONE! Will test and see if it needs a thrust bearing or something.
  • use ¼″ music wire and 1 ¼″ steel bar for Y-axis belt anchors --- DONE --- tried single track shelf wall standard instead of music wire --- didn't like it, but spare length of ¼″ aluminum rod worked,
  • use short lengths of single track shelf wall standards for X-axis belt anchors --- DONE --- but a hole needs to be enlarged --- DONE
  • run wiring --- DONE!
  • make a nice enclosure of Lego bricks --- DONE (but see below)
  • dust collection --- pick up Dremel EZ Twist Nose Cap and use it to hold a fashioned dust shoe in place --- DONE!
    99cent dust shoe installed.JPG
  • arrange and secure power cords, secure power strip --- DONE!
  • Go tool shopping (DONE!):
    • 1/16, 2.5mm and 4mm hex keys (36+67+81 @ True Value, but they're not ball end, so must be replaced)
    • fine tip screwdriver ($4.79 @ True Value --- replaced w/ a Starrett 559B)
    • 8mm open end wrench ($4.99 @ Sears)
  • Make nice fitted tool insert for cigar box --- DESIGNED --- just need to puzzle out extruding and differencing the tools ---Puzzled out --- next CAM and milling --- DONE Wfa-so-toolbox.jpg
  • make a nicer fitted insert for the cigar box cut out of basswood and lined w/ flocking and felt --- DONE
Current state, more-or-less

Alternative spindles

Picked up a 1/8" Elaire Corp. collet for a Makita RT070x router --- and a router to match. Working on a mount / dust shoe: http://www.shapeoko.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3658

Harbor Freight ¼″ trim router

Worked up a mount and dust shoe set-up for a Harbor Freight ¼″ trim router:

3D Printer Extruder

Mount extruder on SO1:

  • E3D Lite
  • Smoothieboard Azteeg X5 mini
  • power supply --- 24V --- buy new Meanwell, swap w/ Ordbot (and rebuild latter)

mount an extruder:

Notes on wiring up a hot-end: http://numbersixreprap.blogspot.ie/2012/07/hot-end.html

Calibration notes

extruded filament width ~= 0.016" (0.4064mm) -- 0.0175" (0.4445mm)

0.5mm thin wall box (sliced solid) --- wall thickness ~= 0.020" (0.508mm) -- 0.030" (0.762mm) --- the latter number seems to be from mis-aligned layers --- need to tighten up the Z-axis carriage.

Z-axis layers:

1/2560*200*3 == 0.234375
1/2560*200*2 == 0.15625

3D Printing

Ordbot Quantum w/Pico 0.35/1.75mm, Azteeg X5 mini v3 and Viki 2 LCD

http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?223428-Holding-Without-A-Vise --- board claw

Folding bookshelf sized for paperback books.

Materials to try

Hardware to try

Remaining things to do:

Drag knife http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:176025

  • add connectors / wiring to SO1 to match Ordbot
  • work out management for Makita power cord and vacuum hose --- build handle arrangement using hanger fixtures and strapping, use pipe or closet rod for handle
  • figure out how to invert belts on X-axis --- probably will do this by getting M5 hex bolts and grinding off a side so that they fit snugly against the side of the motor
  • make a nicer enclosure of Lego bricks --- need to hide away the wires for the p.s. and fan inside the enclosure DONE --- TODO add transparent bit for power LED, add push through stick for reset button
  • replace remaining nylon spacers w/ metal, use 2″ 7/32″ roll pins as stand-offs for Y-axis motor (replacing 1.5″ pins and ½″ aluminum spacers) use 1.5″ pins on spindle mount

  • drill new holes in X gantry plate for second pair of bolts
  • sound enclosure
  • replace standard carriage plate w/ steel version
  • replace Z-axis delrin blocks w/ aluminum

Maybe Eventually

  • replace zip ties w/ cable drag chain
  • drill holes and fasten X-axis MakerSlide together or use Kbot3d's Makerslide Joining Clips
  • maybe re-work belt position, maybe use cable clamps instead of zip ties

  • drill new holes for side vice, mount new T-nuts (or use threaded inserts) --- DONE
  • design nicer / larger / roomier / easier-to-install transparency dust shoe --- DONE

Diamond, Circle, Square

Communication / Control Program Ideas

Rework: GUIGcodeWriter_1.0.py --- https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1FDV9G7idL0OE5MVDlCN0NKNTQ/edit?usp=sharing

Potential Toolkits:

To do:

  • collect screen grabs of extant comm/control programs
  • see if GUIGcodeWriter_1.0.py can actually communicate on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux (running on a Raspberry Pi)

or, just use bCNC.

Tools to buy:

Consider (or bought):

  1. Jack Plane
  2. set of Bench Chisels; should probably include at least a 1/4" and 3/4".
  3. a good Tenon saw, or dovetail saw. These will work for joinery as well as crosscuts and basically anything except ripping long lengths to size. You can also get a rip saw if you really want to. Don't bother with a crosscut; though you probably already have one anyway.
  4. a drill. You could opt for gimlets and a bit and brace, or egg-beater style hand drill. A conventional electric drill may be the cheapest option though.
  5. a file and rasp. A 4-in-1 rasp will handle most of your shaping needs, and I like a half-round file as well.
  6. a scraper. Cabinet, or card scraper. Just something to smooth surfaces that are prone to tearout.

Minimalist Set

  1. Stanley #1 Odd Jobs
  2. Stanley #62 four fold rule
  3. Jack Plane
  4. smoothing plane
  5. Stanley #12-250 combination plane
  6. block plane
  7. Bench Chisels: 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 1", 1.5"
  8. dovetail saw and guide
  9. magnetic guide saw
  10. job saw and miter box
  11. Japanese flush cut saw
  12. screwdriver and bit set and Yankee screwdriver
  13. gimlets and a bit and brace and egg-beater style hand drill and bits and Archimedes drill
  14. flat file, 4-in-1 rasp, half-round file, needle file set and handles
  15. card scraper set
  16. gun smithing hammer
  17. machinist hammer w/ magnifying glass
  18. Starrett screwdrivers
  19. calipers
  20. needle nose pliers and snips
  21. General drill gauge
  22. Japanese marking knife
  23. countersink
  24. sliding bevel
  25. widow’s tooth
  26. deadblow mallet
  27. plane cap screwdriver
  28. marking gauge (shop made, pin style)
  29. double-ended pocket marking gauge
  30. veneer saw

Probably remove

  1. Zona razor saw and guide

Consider adding

  1. 3" Knew Concepts Alum. Fret Saw
  2. Gouge

  1. nail set set with Japanese Nail Set http://www.leevalley.com/US/wood/page.aspx?p=40379&cat=1,53193&ap=1 or http://www.amazon.com/Shark-Corp-21-2301-Nail-Set/dp/B00004TBQH

Combination Tool Set

Combination Tools

Styles of combination tools:

  • Multiple tips / recesses --- Classic example is a double-ended wrench. More complex examples are the T-shaped tools used for specialties such as chainsaws or skateboards
  • removable parts --- e.g., a 3-in-1 plane which goes from shoulder to bull-nose to chisel, similarly, a gunsmithing hammer w/ screwdrivers hidden w/in the handle
  • folding / mechanisms --- the Swiss Army Knife (arguably a subset of the above). This also allows for more complex mechanisms such as the folding pliers of the original Leatherman Pocket Survival Tool

Laptop bag

3/16 hex will remove the grip from an ar15. Torx t20 and 25 are very popular. The largest slotted bit fits a bunch of gun screws. Ph0 and ph1 are very handy too.

Thanks. That was all from the wiki though.

This is long and rambling 'cause I haven't had a cup of tea or coffee yet and initially misread the query and I'm not in mood to delete all that I've written. It includes some speculation, 'cause I don't know any more than anyone else, or what has been publicly stated. Hopefully it will be helpful and informative. If not, ignore it.

Sending G-code is a simple process --- you can do it w/ a terminal program, I'd much rather the effort was all unified into a single stack of modular programs, but I guess modern computer architecture doesn't support that.

There was never any real discussion of making Universal G-Code Sender the default, it was a unilateral decision by Edward back when we were doing the SO2 docs. As I've noted elsewhere, I mislike Java, so am biased and try not to say more than that. It certainly works well for people who can run Java on their machines, and has some nice features.

I suspect we may get a new control / code sender program, possibly derived from the Carbide Motion program --- but nothing official has been said to indicate or support this, just that Edward has had better software on his to-do list for a while, and I can't think of anything else which could require so much time.

Tl;dr --- currently I'm most familiar w/ and use http://www.shapeoko.com/wiki/index.php/Grbl_Controller

Remember the old saw:

- good
- cheap
- fast

Pick any two.

That applies here. Most of the opensource options have clunky interface options and weird little difficulties w/ their output. While philosophically, I'd like to limit myself to opensource, I find myself drawing most things in Freehand, simply because nothing else is as efficient and as precise, let alone elegant. If my NeXT Cube was still working, I'd probably still be using Altsys Virtuoso.

Inkscape and MakerCAM and GRbl Controller work for me, albeit w/ the odd crash (running MC locally helps) and the need to trim files after the fact (yeah, it's supposed to happen automatically, I'd rather just do it up front).

Presumably MeshCAM, since it's done by a Carbide3D partner will be well-supported --- it is integrated into and included with their smaller, pre-assembled machine, the Nomad883.

Waiting For Nightfall

One of the unusual aspects of working in commercial beekeeping is the keeping of inconsistent and irregular work hours.  Especially when moving bees, large amounts of work takes place at night.  Commercial beekeepers often need to move bees to take advantage of upcoming honey flows, evade upcoming pesticide spraying, or to establish new colonies in a new location.

It is much easier – and safer – to move bee colonies at night while the bees are dormant and inside their hives, than to move them while they are active during the height of day.  The procedure usually goes something like this:  Colonies are loaded onto flatbed trucks at sunset right after the last of the field workers have returned to their colonies from foraging.  Then, depending on the length of the move, they are either trucked to their new location right away during the night, or they are parked temporarily while the beekeepers catch some sleep, and then installed into their new location early the next morning before the sun rises.

At Wildflower Meadows, we occasionally move colonies throughout the year for all of the reasons mentioned above.  Plus, we are also constantly building and moving in mating nucs to new and existing locations for our queen rearing operation.  Although much of our regular beekeeping work takes place during the day, most of our bee moving activities take place at night and during the early morning hours.  The work can be hard and tiring, but the peace and natural beauty of working outside during quiet hours can make it all worthwhile.

Above, a flatbed truck sits parked with the bees, waiting for nightfall, until the moment arrives when the beekeeper can begin loading…

BadgerLearn Pro has recently added to the Building/Facilities collection to provide librarians with suggestions and tips on library building design, from consultants, experts, and librarians who have overseen building construction or renovation projects in their own libraries.

See some highlights below, and visit BadgerLearn Pro's Building/Facilities resources for the full list of Building/Facilities webinars and resources.

Whether you are planning a new building or renovating an old one, you will need to develop a detailed space plan that takes into account the actual space needs to meet your library's mission and service plan. Library space planning expert, Linda Demmers of Libris Design has put together a guide to some of the best resources and tools for library space planning as well an an introduction to the lingo.

Join Nathan Rall, Director of Planning and Construction at the Georgia Public Library Service, in a conversation with David Moore and Joe Alcock, both of McMillan Pazdan Smith Architecture, for a webinar on how to begin the process of building a library. From finding funding to seeking community input to selecting an architect, there are many different aspects to consider; this session will guide you through the initial steps of starting the library design process and provide an overview of how to get started.

Join the Director of Planning and Construction at the Georgia Public Library Service, in a conversation with Channing Mason and Ryce Elliott of Benning Construction Company for a webinar focusing on what you should (and shouldn’t do) during the library construction process. From basing decisions on your long-range plan and life cycle cost analyses to training your maintenance staff on new equipment, this webinar will guide you through the many complicated steps of constructing a new library and share with you a few tips on how to avoid costly mistakes.

Tips for a good summary

Finally, it is important that one very briefly again calls the thesis and thus ends. You should be aware that the latter are not welcome at the university ghostwriting, as it is expected that you understand and understand relationships as such. Make sure that all topics are covered in sufficient detail.

A step-by-step guide Writing a summary: That’s why in our examples you’ll also find some vocabulary ideas for you. The main time used is the Simple Present z. Also, individual pictures that illustrate one or the other statement, can help to keep the material better in mind.

Do not Forget Proofreading If you’re writing a summary for the school, you should read it out loud and clear at the end, so you’re the best at detecting mistakes.

Thesis antithesis hypothesis. Thus, it differs from the summary, conclusion and review, which may well get a rating. Spelling mistakes and typos are distracting and distract from the actual statements in the abstract, making learning hard.

As We said, in own words. It is important not to use the same vocabulary over and over again.

It is not necessary here to draw a conclusion or to repeat all the core statements again. We have collected some vocabulary for you, which can help you both in German and English in writing your final part: Often, texts that you wrote in the university are not understandable a few weeks later.

One of many possible patterns for an introductory sentence in English is: Write the British summary in English unWe example cp. Equally important are the author characterization writing short story of the title of the text that you summarize.

It is especially popular with most fellow students when the paper is already being punched by the bachelor thesis teacher of the distribution. First, of course, it is important to have a good knowledge of the text of this summary in English and an example.

Summary of important information You can put together particularly important statements or research results in a separate summary. Half to one side is a good length to orient yourself. First read the text slowly and in peace.

In summary in English type unWe example introduction the topic is presented and in this context questions are raised the research question and possible sub-questions. Here are some example sentences in English for Wingwave coaching prices basel Would anyone who does not know the original text understand what it is about?

Pure descriptive text types usually have little potential for reduction.

So you can also access the summary in the later part of the study to repeat the topics. Do not lose in details! Generally, all parts of I.

There are no fixed number of structurings of texts, but there are always recurring structural stereotypes. In case you need to write a summary for all students, you will receive instructions for creating summaries from your instructor. Do not forget to look at the headline.

So that you can find the right wording at the end, here are some examples of how to initiate your last sentence.

The summary for all students – do not forget to punch! The synopsis could lose its objectivity and give the impression that you are of the same opinion.

If you are writing about a newspaper article, you should also mention the newspaper in which it was published. Do not use verbatim speech Even though verbatim speech uses direct quotation, you should never use it in your summary. Also the falsification of a hypothesis is a relevant result cf.

In special cases, the perfect is also allowed. Like many wingwave coaching prices basel english terms, it has become established in our language. Do not try to build tension in your summary and focus on the facts no matter how you personally think about them.

Microsoft has announced an addition to Xbox Live that’s designed to cut out toxicity for those who are sick of it. An automated filtering system will be rollout out across messages, LFG, Clubs, and Activity Feed, with adjustable levels.

The feature will let gamers decide more or less the content they’re comfortable with. While some may draw the line at comments about their mother, others may think they’re fair game.

The four levels currently are Friendly, Medium, Mature, and Unfiltered. These will be adjustable for specific aspects of Xbox Live, for example, received messages, requests, and media.

When players receive a message that violates their filters, they’ll be informed and the message will be removed. This will let them ask a user to rephrase something if it contains a swear word, for example. You can also turn it on or off from friends.

Of course, if a message violates the Xbox Community Standards, users are encouraged to report it even if they’re on “unfiltered”. Microsoft’s tech also doesn’t currently apply to voice chat, so you’ll be without protection there.

“We recognize that while some adults use profanity without any ill intent while gaming, parents with small children likely won’t find this same experience acceptable,” said Dave McCarthy, CVP, Xbox Operations. “Similarly, there are differences between the everyday speech you’d use with your friends and harmful insults that could negatively impact anyone. With this in mind, we’ve ensured our safety settings are configurable along a spectrum from most filtered to least filtered so you can choose what is best for you.”

Filter Differences

The Mature filter is likely a setting many adult gamers can get behind. It will allow vulgarity, but block content it believes is “harsh bullying, explicitly sexual, or severely targeting race, gender, and nationality”.

Medium is a middle ground between mature and friendly, allowing swear words where they’re not directed at someone and don’t reference sexual acts. The same filters can be applied to images, where it’s mostly targetted at offensive and sexual content.

If you see a message is blocked but want to view it anyway, you’re still able to do so, provided you aren’t on a Child and Teens account. This generally seems like a big leap forward in customization, but much will depend on the accuracy of Microsoft’s detection systems.

We’ve talked recently about issues that Windows 8 users are experiencing and provided a few ways to fix them. One such example was the Taskbar not responding problem in which we mentioned that in some cases, Windows 8 is not allowing users to properly repair their computer by returning a 0xc00001 error. Today we’re taking a look at how to resolve this Windows 8 problem.

Usually, the 0xc00001 error code stands for a missing file in the installation media of Windows 10/8.1. There is no need to worry about this problem, as it can be easily bypassed. In some cases, this error is accompanied by BSOD (blue screen of death), but again, there is no need to worry, as it can be easily fixed. In some cases, you will need a Windows 8 installation disk or USB flash drive in order for this fix to work.

If the following Windows 10/8.1 error is rendering your computer unusable:

Your PC needs to be repaired
The application or operating system couldn’t be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.
File: windowssystem32windload.efi
Error code:0xc0000001

Then the following guide will give you some information about the error and the steps necessary to fix this issue.

How to fix Windows 10 error code 0xc00001

  1. Create a recovery drive
  2. Advanced startup
  3. Copy the SAM File from the Repair Folder
  4. Run the SFC scan
  5. Check the hard drive
  6. Run the DISM

Solution 1 – Create a recovery drive

If you don’t have your Windows 8 install drive, you can easily create a new one on a USB drive from any Windows 8 computer. To do so, open the Search charm and search for “recovery drive“. From the results, select “Create Recovery Drive“. When the wizard opens, make sure your USB drive is plugged in and tick the “Copy the recovery partition from the PC to the recovery drive” checkbox and follow the wizard. More information on creating a system restore USB drive can be found in this Microsoft help article.

Solution 2 – Advanced startup

Now that you have your USB recovery drive / Windows 8 installation media, you can move on to the next step. Plug in or insert your media and restart your computer. When you see the Post BIOS message press the Shirt and F8 keys to enter the Recovery mode. From here, select “See advanced repair option“. From here, select “Troubleshoot” and then go to “Advanced options“. From here, you can proceed in one of two ways:

Method 1

Select “Automatic Repair” and let the install wizard take care of your issues by scanning the system files and replacing them. This option will work for more errors, not just the 0xc00001 Windows 8 error, so it’s good to take notice of it and keep it in mind when repairing Windows 8 computers.

Method 2

Select “Command Prompt” which will launch the all too familiar CMD. In the console, type in the following commands (keep in mind to press the “Return” key after each command):

  • Bootrec /fixmbr0xc00001 Error bootrec
  • Bootrec /fixboot
  • Bootrec /rebuildbcd
  • exit

Now restart your computer and see if the issue is resolved. This should take care of your issues, but if not, open the system in Recovery Mode again and perform another automatic repair.

Solution 3 – Copy the SAM File from the Repair Folder

If you’re still unable to login to Windows, try with copying the SAM file C:WINDOWSrepair to C:WINDOWSsystem32config. Here’s how to do that:

  1. Insert your recovery drive and boot from it
  2. Open the Command Prompt (as shown above)
  3. If prompted whether you want to overwrite the original file, confirm it (enter “Y”)

Solution 4 – Run the SFC scan

The SFC scan is Microsoft’s built-in tool for resolving various problems in Windows. And it can be helpful when dealing with the 0xc00001 error, as well. Here’s how to run the SFC scan:

  1. Open the Command Prompt
  2. Enter the following line and press Enter: sfc/scannow0xc00001 Error sfc
  3. Wait for the process to finish (it’s a lengthy one)
  4. Restart your computer

Solution 5 – Check the hard drive

If something’s wrong with your hard drive, you may encounter the error code 0xc00001. So, we’re going to check if your hard drive is okay. And here’s how to do that:

  1. Insert your Windows installation USB or DVD drive
  2. Click Repair your computer, after selecting proper language
  3. Select the drive you have Windows installed on (usually C:), and click Next
  4. Choose Command Prompt when the System Recovery Options box appears
  5. Enter the following line, and press Enter: chkdsk C: /f0xc00001 Error chkdsk
  6. Wait for the process to finish
  7. Restart your computer

Solution 6 – Run the DISM

Similarly to the SFC scan, DISM (Microsoft Windows Deployment Image Servicing and Management) is a built-in tool for dealing with various system errors in Windows. However, DISM is more powerful than the SFC scan, which means your chances of resolving this problem are bigger with DISM.

You can easily run DISM even if you’re unable to boot your system. If you’re not sure how to do that, just follow these instructions:

  1. Insert your installation USB or DVD and type following command:
      • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:C:RepairSourceWindows /LimitAccess0xc00001 Error DISM
  2. Be sure to replace ”C:RepairSourceWindows” path of your DVD or USB.

That’s about it for this article, we hope at least one of these solutions helped you deal with this annoying problem. If you have any comments, questions or suggestions, just let us know in the comments down below.

Vineyard estates

REF : LR50

Between mountain and sea – beautiful farmhouse on 44ha near to the seafront

This vineyard is situated at just a few kilometres from Perpignan. The imposing U-shaped Catalan house faces south from the heart of its 44 contiguous hectares, at just 6km from the Mediterrannean beaches. Both the house and the farm buildings have been renovated in recent years with the highest quality finishings. Only one wing of the house remains unrenovated, allowing future owners the chance to bring a personal touch to the Domain.  The Spanish border is reached in 45 minutes and Barcelona in just 2h15.

In the middle of the XIXth century the buildings were used as a monastery. One wing has been elegantly renovated, to provide 750m² of living area. The finishings in the house are of the highest standards (cement tiles, full underfloor heating, wireless alarm system, cabinetwork, high ceilings…). The ground floor comprises a vast sitting room, kitchen and gym. On the first floor a parental bedroom suite is completed by two further bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The attics have been renovated to provide two additional bedrooms and a large games room for children. The gardens are secluded with a swimming pool.

The winery has a total capacity of 2 500hl. It has been fully modernised in recent years to provide prime conditions for wine making: the majority of tanks in stainless steel with a few in cement and fibre glass, two pneumatic presses, de-stemmer, RDV filter… The 250m² of winery buildings include an air conditioned barrel aging room, wine shop and offices. With its high ceilings, the buildings would provide an ideal setting for seminars or wine tastings.

Only the roof of the right wing has been renovated as yet. This wing offers a potential of 500m² to be developed either as an impressive wine tourism project or simply as a second 500m² house.

The property comprises 44 contiguous hectares, 30 of which are vineyard. 9ha of planting rights take the potential total vineyard area to 40ha. The average yield is approximately 1 200hl per year. At present the vines are farmed by a renowned wine negociant. However the property is sold free of all occupation.

Price guide: 5 000 000 euros net vendor, stock and standing crop to be added. Agency fees of 5% net of VAT and legal costs to be added.

Iran says Zarif not attending Davos as its organizers ‘changed its agenda’

DUBAI (Reuters) – Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif will not attend the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos this week because its organizers had “abruptly changed its agenda”, its foreign ministry spokesman said on Monday.

“He was scheduled to attend … but they abruptly changed the schedule and it was not the schedule that we agreed upon. So he will not attend Davos,” Abbas Mousavi told a televised weekly conference.

Reuters last week reported that Zarif was no longer on the list of nearly 3,000 people due at the event, which is being held under the banner “Stakeholders for a Sustainable and Cohesive World”.

Ukraine to press for plane crash black boxes as Iran minister visits

KIEV (Reuters) – Ukraine will press Iran to hand over the black boxes from the crash of a Ukrainian passenger plane at a meeting with a visiting Iranian delegation on Monday, Foreign Minister Vadym Prystaiko told reporters.

Ukraine would convey the message to visiting Minister of Roads and Urban Development Mohammad Eslami, that returning the black boxes would show that Iran wanted an unbiased investigation of the crash, Prystaiko said.

Iran had said on Sunday it was trying to analyze the black boxes from the airliner its military shot down this month, denying an earlier report it would hand them to Ukraine. All 176 aboard the flight died.
