Connect using no-ip service

Hi all
simple question
is it possible to connect to my server (which is remote not on the same network)
using services like dyndns or no-ip instead of a static IP
Important note
these service give you a domain not a static ip
ip change every time you restart the service but the domain is attached to the ip
so i can't do
Host = IP
i can do
Host = domain Name
i tried it gives tns-12560 tns:protocol adapter error
thank you

Remote connection using SAProuter and Service Connector

Hello everyone!
What I am trying to do is to connect to an SAP system of a client of ours.
This is what I have found out and what works -
I found out that for such a scenario a SAProuter and the Service Connector somewhow come into play. I worked with the SAProuter and could connect to a test IDES system in our company with the following router string -
/H/<localsystem_where_SAProuter_is_running>/H/<IP_of_IDES>/S/3200
This basically means that I would have to connect my SAProuter with the client's SAProuter and the client router would then pass on my connection to their SAP system like this -
/H/<mySAProuter>/H/<clientSAProuter>/S/<port_client_SAProuter>/W/<client_password_if_specified>
When this connection is established, I can access the client's SAP system through a SAPGui (Windows or Java) from my side using the connection string as specified above.
If this works, why do I need a service connector? What would it's function be?
Another question being - I have been told that a connection can also be established by using a connection from us to SAP and then from SAP to the client's SAP system (this has been suggested by the client). Where does this scenario fit in? If it is indeed possible, what do I need to do to make such a connection work?
I would appreciate it if someone answers who has actually worked on such a situation.
Bye!
Sameer

The service connector is used by SAP to automatically open your systems for customer messages; it's not relevant in the scenario you describe.
You can't use SAP's servers as a "stepping stone" to get to another customer's system.... you can directly link the two organizations by allowing the connections through both firewalls to specific saprouters at each end though:
CustA <> saprouter <> firewall <> INTERNET <> firewall <> saprouter <> CustB
It requires coordination between both customers and the use of saprouter strings in the SAPGUI configuration, as you've described.

DialUp Connection using Java

Dear friends
I am facing problem,How to get DailUpConnection in Java .Is there any APIs which provide the DialUpConnection.
Please mention the API's or Sample code .
thanks

As the previous reply states, my computer has been configured to automatically connect using dial up services, whenever windows determines a connection is needed.
I was wrong to say that Java does this. However, I just thought it might be easier for you to configure you internet connection to automatically connect when needed.
When I run the following program an automatic connection is made. If I am not configured for automatic dial up, then a dialog box is displayed asking me to connect:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
public class URLTester

     public static void main(String args[])
          if ( args.length != 1 )
               System.out.println("Usage: java URLTester <url>");
               System.exit(-1);
          String urlString = args[0];
          try
               // Create URL object from the URL string
               URL url = new URL(PROTOCOL + urlString);
               // The connection object has information that my be
               // retrieved without parsing the data returned
               HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
               conn.connect();
               // Get an input stream from the URLConnection object
               // Note: if you dont need connection information you can get an
               // input stream from the URL object ( url.openStream() )
               InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( conn.getInputStream() );
               BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( isr );

Connect to SharePoint web service using the XML / Web Service connector

Hi experts,
I am currently trying to display my SharePoint list in Crystal Report. Therefore my plan is to use a SharePoint web service to get the data and paste them to the Crystal Report.
Is it possible to use the "XML and Web services" connector of the Crystal Reports database expert?
When I enter the web service URL, for instance:
https://[url]/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?wsdl
and click next... I have to enter the web service credentials.
On the next page I have to enter Service, Port and Method.
Do I have to enter the service URL again here?
What If, there is no port? Can I leave that field empty?
I know the methods, but where can I add the mandatory parameters?
Thanks for any helps and comments!
Sebastian

Hi Ananth,
thank you, but this document does not help at all.
We are using Crystal Reports 2008 SP2.
We want to use the Web Service Connector.
What I need is more informationen about the Web service connect. For example - the connection in Microsoft InfoPath is much easier - there I don't have to enter a port and can choose the methods from a list.
Is it possible to use the Crystal web service connector for MS SharePoint Webservices?
Or must I use the Crystal SDK to carry out a connection?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Error connecting to Salesforce using a Web Service Adapter

Hi,
I'm working on a connection from Data Services 4.2 to Salesforce using a Web Service Adapter.
I've setup up the adapter (including JVM parameters to use a HTTP proxy), created a Datastore based on the adapter and built a batch job that calls the login operation and initiates a sessions towards Salesforce.
When I execute the batch job I get an error message that says:

Do you have all of your parameter files set up correctly?
You need to have a hsora file in the hs/admin directory for ioi for instance, initioiDB.ora. In this file you need to set up your hs init parameters. This is an example of what's in one of mine:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = Mapics
HS_DB_NAME = MAPICS
HS_DB_DOMAIN = WORLD
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
The you need to have an entry in the tnsnames.ora file in the network/admin directory for hsodbcxtrad. The sid should be set to ioiDB.
You can find documentation on how to manage heterogenous services in the online documentation.
Managing Heterogenous Services Using Generic Connectivity
Hope this helps
Eric
I have been trying to set up a database link between Oracle and SQL Server, currently both on the same Windows NT machine.
I managed to create the link as follows:
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK ioi
CONNECT TO IOItest IDENTIFIED BY mba
USING 'hsodbcxtrad';
The link is created successfully.
I then try to run a query and get the following error :
select * from dealer@ioi
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

I have added a UID and PWD to the registry settings for the SQL Server DSN but this makes no difference. Do I need to specify a username and password somewhere else ?

Using Encrypted Web Service connections within Xcelsius 2008 SP1 - FP3

Hi all,
I'm running the latest version of Xcelsius Server 2008 and have setup a simplistic dashboard that uses 4 web service connections to dynamically call queries within a SQL Server 2008 database. The dashboard has been exported to html and I can serve this to the WWW.
I have since created a new https website (using a self signed certificate) and can now serve my Xcelsius dashboard via https. My problem is that I have had to run my old website in parallel (as it serves the said non-encrypted web service) which is linked within the swf source (that is running on the new https enabled website).
Upon trying to alter my existing xlf file so that it references the encrypted web service URL (which works fine via the browser) it prompts me to accept the self signed certificate. Once I click yes, and then add the certificate to the certificate store the whole thing locks up and I am forced to close Xcelsius.
Am I right in thinking that Xcelsius will not accept self signed certificates or encrypted web services at all? For me this is big security concern because if I want to share my dashboard via the WWW I have to accept the fact that I need to run an unsecure web service.
Is this something that is only supported in Xcelsius Enterprise?
TIA

Hello Paul,
Sorry not to have replied to this sooner.
We have had experience of hosting Xcelsius Dashboards using Https: for one of our clients here at Flynet.
We noticed a number of issues , we did have problems relating to the Firewall on our Gateway server for example. We also had issues with the number of active connections processed when the dashboard is running. I think the default for Https: is 2 , so the connections can be queued up. Have you retried with one connection open. The Dashboard we did however did have up to 12 connections, so Xcelsius can handle multiple connections.
When developing the Dashboards using Xcelsius I did have to import using the Web Service URL of the remote server which was Https: However due to issues sometimes with our Gateway Firewall and the way our Local Network had to access the https: URL , what I tended to do was develop using a localhost Web service and then switch the URL to use the https: Web Service once the dashboard was exported to the server it was to be hosted on.
What we did notice for example is that we could have a dashboard running locally quite happily using the https: web services which are actually on [http://www.flynetviewer.com] then we would start getting #2 type flash errors. To solve this we had to restart our Windows Firewall on our gateway server. We could run the dashboard fine if run from our web site.
I am not sure if the issues you have are related to this. I have had problems when I had to import the https: web service URL on my local machine , I am prompted for the Username password for the Https: location , but when trying to import Xcelsius has a problem and exits. Due to these problems I tended to use a local Web service when developing. I know this isn't always practical.
I was running on Vista 64 bit , but I also have XP and Server 2003 running on Virtual machines.
I will be happy to share information my experiences with you.
Best Regards,
Ian Learmonth
Flynet
Updated to add: I have just successfully imported an https: Web service. Mapped it to the dashboard , run it and invoked sucessfully. This was on Windows XP professional SP2.
I did the same thing on Windows Vista 64 bit and had an issue. So not sure what operating system you are using or whether it's a Certificate thing. I can try and find out a bit more on our Certificate if you need to find out what the issue is.
The Vista issue seems to have been resolved by running Xcelsius as Administrator.
When successfully importing I was prompted for the Username and Password for the URL but not the Certificate.

Connecting to ADO Data Services using XML Data

Has anyone attempted to connect to a database using ADO Data Services? My understanding of ADO Data Services is that it allows querying of the database in a REST format. So if I publish a site, I can get to its data with a URL like this:
http://mysite/myservice.svc/entity where entity is a defined entity like Product, or supplier. Going to this site returns data that I have included at the end of this post, with the Entry node repeating (I only included the first Entry node). I definitely cannot use Web Service as my connection method, because there is no WSDL, but I was thinking maybe I could use XML. However, I have read the help file and several forum posts and I can't seem to figure out how to make XML work.

Hi lilutchay,
If the SQL Server Integration Services is Enterprise or Developer edition of SQL Server 2008, we can use
Microsoft Connector Version 1.2 for Oracle to connect Oracle databases with version Oracle 9.2.0.4 or higher, Oracle 10.x or Oracle 11.x. If the SQL Server Integration Services is Enterprise or Developer edition of SQL Server 2012, we can use
Microsoft Connector Version 2.0 for Oracle to connect Oracle databases with version Oracle 9.2.0.4 or higher, Oracle 10.x or Oracle 11.x.
While if we want to connect to other Oracle version databases, we can use
OLE DB provider for Oracle which has been tested in SSIS labs and is recommended by Microsoft.
For the detail steps for Microsoft Connector for Oracle, we can refer to the first blog suggested by Deric. For more details about the use of connecting to oracle using Oracle Provider for OLEDB from SSIS, please refer to the blog below:

Problems connecting to php web service

Hello
I am pretty raw when it comes to using web services. I am facing a bit of a problem.
I have been given a url to a web service. http://41.208.61.35/legacyfallback/ws/legacyLifeWS.php?wsdl
I am trying to connect using cfinvoke:
<cfinvoke webservice="http://41.208.61.35/legacyfallback/ws/legacyLifeWS.php?wsdl" method="test" returnVariable="result"> </cfinvoke>
<cfoutput>#result.test#</cfoutput>
I keep getting the following error:
Cannot generate stub objects for web service invocation.
Name: http://41.208.61.35/legacyfallback/ws/legacyLifeWS.php?wsdl. WSDL: http://41.208.61.35/legacyfallback/ws/legacyLifeWS.php?wsdl. java.io.IOException: Type {http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}char is referenced but not defined. It is recommended that you use a web browser to retrieve and examine the requested WSDL document to ensure it is correct. If the requested WSDL document cannot be retrieved or is dynamically generated, it is likely that the target web service has programming errors.
Please can someone assist me in getting around this.
Have a look at the service url if you need to.
Ive been at it all day and im ready to pull my hair out!
Thanks in advance

Hi
Ok now i am using the following code:

    <cfinvokeargument name="merchantid" value="0">
    <cfinvokeargument name="email" value="[email protected]">
</cfinvoke>
and getting the follosing error:
Web service operation register with parameters {mobileNumber={0831727737},name={hansie},wsUserPass={smit},birthDate={01-01-2010},gender= {M},email={[email protected]},wsUserName={delon},merchantid={0}} cannot be found.
WHy would that be?
I checked with the provider and the var names are correct.

Application-to-application authentication using Calendar Web Services

Calendar Web Services
Application-to-application authentication
(Proxy authentication)
Abstract:
Application-to-application authentication allows services to trust other services without having to authenticate the end-user making use of these services. The Calendar Web Services offers an application-to-application authentication mechanism called âProxy Authenticationâ.
What is Proxy Authentication?
The Calendar Web Services Proxy Authentication is a solution that was developed by the Oracle Calendar team and is similar to what SSO would be to the web. Proxy Authentication allows any application developed using the Calendar Web Services Toolkit to establish a trusted authentication link to the Calendar Server via the Calendar Web Services.
What do I need to get Proxy Authentication going?
-     The Calendar Web Services Toolkit 9.0.4.2.X (Calendarlet.jar)
-     The Calendar Web Services 9.0.4.2.X (OCAS)
-     The Calendar Server 9.0.4.2.X (Calserv)
-     Oracle Internet Directory 9.0.4.X (OID)
Your collaboration suite deployment MUST be configured in a way where the Calendar Server is connected to the OID (done by default). This is fundamental given that Proxy Auth is designed to extensively use the OID security schemes.
How to configure Proxy Authentication?
You must have:
1.     Access to the OID administrator account.
2.     Access to the ldap tools ($ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin).
3.     Access to the Oracle Calendar Server administrator password.
OID Configuration
Create an entry for your application product in OID
The following entry needs to be created:
- cn=OracleContext
- cn=Products
- cn=MyApplicationProduct
The MyApplicationProduct.ldif will look like:
dn: cn= MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext
objectClass: orclContainer
objectClass: top
The command to add the entry is
./ldapadd -h HOSTNAME.COM -p OIDPORT -D "cn=orcladmin" -w PASSWROD -f ./MyApplicationProduct.ldif
Where [HOSTNAME.COM] is the OID server hostname, [PASSWROD] is the password for the OID directory and [OIDPORT] is the OID port.
Create an application entity for MyAppName in OID
The following entry needs to be added to the OID:
- cn=OracleContext
- cn=Products
- cn= MyApplicationProduct
- orclApplicationCommonName=MyAppName
The MyAppName.ldif will look like:
dn: orclApplicationCommonName= MyAppName,
cn= MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products,
cn=OracleContext
objectClass: orclApplicationEntity
objectClass: top
orclApplicationCommonName: MyAppName
userpassword: test1
The command to add the entry is
./ldapadd -h HOSTNAME.COM -p OIDPORT -D "cn=orcladmin" -w PASSWORD -f ./MyAppName.ldif
Ensure the entry is properly configured
Perform an LDAP search to locate the entry's distinguished name:
"orclApplicationCommonName= MyAppName,
cn= MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products,
cn=OracleContext"
./ldapsearch -h HOSTNAME.COM -p OIDPORT -D "cn=orcladmin" -w PASSWROD
-b "cn= MyApplicationProduct,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext"
"objectclass=orclApplicationEntity" "c"
Grant proxy privileges to the new application entity
This creates an entry in OID:
- dc=com
- dc=oracle
- dc=us
- cn=OracleContext
- cn=Products
- cn=Calendar
- cn=UserProxyPrivilege
- uniquemember:
orclApplicationCommonName= MyAppName,
cn= MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products,
cn=OracleContext
From the $ORACLE_HOME/ocal/bin
./unioidconf -grantproxyprivilege \
"orclApplicationCommonName= MyAppName,
cn= MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products,
cn=OracleContext"
NOTE: you need the calendar server admin password.
How to use Proxy Authentication?
Once successfully done configuring your OID and Calendar Server, you must start the real work; coding. It is actually simple to implement.
In your Java application, you will simply change the BasicAuth class with the ProxyAuth class. You then set the end-user identity, along with the proxy application name and proxy application password, you registered a moment ago.
Ex:
ProxyAuth auth = new ProxyAuth();
auth.setApplicationName("orclApplicationCommonName=MyAppName, cn=MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext");
auth.setApplicationPassword(âtest1â);
auth.setName(myUserId);
Your application will no longer need to pass the end-userâs password to the Calendar Web Services. From now on, it is your applicationâs responsibility to authenticate the end-user.

I found the solution:
Using the CalendaringResponse.getReceiveBuffer() and getSendBuffer() methods, the soap request looks something like this:
Sendbuffer: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Header>
<auth:ProxyAuth xmlns:auth="http://www.oracle.com/WebServices/Calendaring/Authentication/1.0/"><ApplicationName>orclApplicationCommonName=MyAppName,cn=MyApplicationProduct, cn=Products, cn=OracleContext</ApplicationName><ApplicationPassword>testpw1</ApplicationPassword><Name>king</Name></auth:ProxyAuth>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<cwsl:Search xmlns:cwsl="http://www.oracle.com/WebServices/Calendaring/1.0/"><CmdId>MySearchCommandID-1</CmdId><vQuery><From>VEVENT</From><Where>DTEND >= '20061007T220000Z' AND DTSTART <= '20061014T215900Z'</Where></vQuery></cwsl:Search>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service

I have upgraded from WSS 3.0 to SharePoint Foundation 2010. So far everything appears to be OK apart from my search.
When I attempt a search I get the following:
The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service.
I checked the Manage Database Update Status in Central Admin and noticed the following(an upgrade is required):
Also, I checked Manage Services on Server and noticed that the only search related service is 'SharePoint Foundation Help Search'.
If I go into Manage Service Applications and click new there is no option to add a search service.
Finally I tried PSConfig:
PS C:\Users\administrator.ACHESON> PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force
-cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures

How do I resolve this?

Hi,
SharePoint Foundation the search service should be installed by default. It's not the same as with 2010 Standard or Enterprise where you can create a "Service Application" for it.
Follow this article to configure SharePoint Foundation Search:
http://plexhosted.blogspot.com/2011/11/how-to-configure-sharepoint-foundation.html
Meanwhile, here is a thread which discusses the similar question:
