“e000820e Library Error Invalid Request”

or

Final error: 0xe000820e - Library error - invalid request

This was a _fun_ problem this morning that greated me upon trying to get last nights backup tape …

What it would turn out to be is that the “mail slot” on our tape library was open, in error seemingly this had opened prior to moving the tape into position.

Closing the mail slot resolved the issue, however clearing the “Attention” status is proving to be a pain

Acies 

Acies Latin: a sharp edge or point; mental acuity, sharpness of vision

A fitting name I thought for my new project, rather a name of a framework (yes I actually intend to finish this one!), initially the framework will comprise of code I have written over the years (brought in-line with PHP5).

More details will appear @ http://acies.saiweb.co.uk as I complete the modules.

There are several projects lined up awaiting completion of Acies, once in place I should be able to turn these around quite rapidly.

More Soon

At what point is a toy, no longer a toy …

When you can hold a conversation with it, is my opinion. Check the video out, Elmo dances, sings, reacts to what the tech says and does to Elmo …

The intelligence of this thing is a little … well creepy.
