Essbase 6.5 External Authentication Issue!! Urgent Please!!

Hi all,
I am great trouble over an external authentication issue in Essbase 6.5. I request you all to please give me your feedback on the same as soon as possible.
I am in a situation where I need to get my Essbase 6.5 external Authentication converted from LDAP to Active Directory services.

"User [vikc]'c external authentication protocol [MSEX]'s password check module is not loaded".
Please let me know if you have come across such an issue earlier and can anybody to able to help me with the same.
Its kinda Urgent. so any replies for the same will be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Vikram

Vikram,
Yes you will have to reconfigure the CSS.xml and cfg file for external auth.
Here is the Sample CSS
<spi>
          <provider>
               <msad name="full360">
                    <trusted>false</trusted>
                    <url>ldap://192.168.1.100:389/DC=full360,DC=com</url>
                    <userDN>CN=Ravinder Singh,DC=full360,DC=com</userDN>
                    <password>full@360</password>
                    <authType>simple</authType>
                    <identityAttribute>dn</identityAttribute>
                    <maxSize>1000</maxSize>
                    <user>

  • PHP external authentication issue

    Trying to login to AFCS connection using external authentication.
    PHP file generates a key correctly and everything seems to fine up until i get to using the key inside flex.
    at the login stage i get the following error in the console trace from the library login call
    As far as i can tell everything is right... how can i tell what is wrong with the authentication key?
    AFCS Beta Build # : 1.1
    requestInfo https://connectnow.acrobat.com/{roomname}?exx=eDp7dXRmOF9lbmNvZGUoZGFyaXVzKX06OmRtOmFnZW50ZG06aHR0cHM6Ly9jb25uZWN0bm93LmF jcm9iYXQuY29tL2hpaW50ZXJmYWNlL2RtOjEwMDo4N2NmNWUwMjIzZTVhMmFkYzI2MmY4MDVlNWJmMWVlM2Y4OTJlY 2Qx&mode=xml&x=0.2519759591668844
    #THROWING ERROR# bad authentication key

    There are a few mistakes in the key. There is some PHP 'code' in it (wrong string expansion ?) and you are using a full URL instead of the room name.
    If you want more details send me a private message, but you should check the way you call the get authentication token method.

  • Hyperion Hub external authentication issue

    I have Hyperion Hub installed in an Active Directory domain - the users still live in a NT4 domain (we are in the midst of a migration). I have set up trusts between the two domains. We have been utilizing external authentication with Hyperion Reports in this environment for several months. With Hyperion Hub I have setup two authentication providers one for active directory(NTLM) and one for NT4 (NTLM). When adding users in the Hyperion Configuration Console using the provider for NT4, I am only able to pull up users in the "Available Users" list if I have a '*' in the search box. If I try to perform a query of a subset of users (ie. 'g*') it returns nothing. The provider for Active Directory works correctly. Also, with both of the providers I am unable to pull up a full list of available users - even when setting the "Maximum Size" to a large number. Has anyone else come across this???<BR><BR><BR>Greg

    I would suggest you set autoLogin="false" on rtc:ConnectSessionContainer and call cSession.login() when you are ready (you got the token and have everything set up).
    I suspect the automatic login is getting executed before the AdobeHSAuthenticator has been correctly setup.

  • 0P_FYEAR issue - Urgent -  Please help

    Hi,
    We are developing six new BCS queries. We have already have about 30 reports.
    1. We are using the Fiscal Year variable (0FISCYEAR)  -  0P_FYEAR in most of the queries. In the new reports, particularly in one query, the previous year is not working with -1 offset value. but, the same variable is working in other new reports for previous year. Please help how to rectify the issue.
    2.  I have started trying many options in QA environment and found that there was a option to choose CONSTANT SELECTION in the 0FISCYEAR. So, I tried to select the Constant selection and found that the PREVIOUS YEAR IS WORKING for the query, for which earlier it was not working. Now, my another issue is that previous year is not working for all other queries which we have used the 0P_FYEAR as variable.
    Since I have tried this in QA, all the reports in QA are not working for previuos year. Please advise urgently to correct the same.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi ,
    Have you used Fiscal Yaer variant in your query?
    When you use these variables you should restrict querieswith correct fiscal yaer Variant.

  • External Authentication issue

    Hi All
    In Shared services I have 'Configured User directories' with the SQl server database. I could connect and get all the users from SQl server . I can see that there are items under User Directories 1.Native Directory 2.SQl server . The serach order is also set. I have restared the Shared services. Now how can i make the use of SQl server users ? .
    From Console I have done the "Externalize users " for Essbase server. I have refreshed the security from shared services.
    Now I should be able to login in console using the SQl server users .. isnt it ? How can I do that ? How can i use the SQl server users to login into EAS and essbase server? . I also provisioned the SQl server user in Shared services and given the Administrator priveleges to Analytic server.
    Please help me.

    Hi,
    1. As you see the newly added "user directory", It must be added properly. But,to re confirm your configuration of SQL server user directory. Do test it ( there is an option to "test" it ,when you go to 'use directory' within shared services.
    2. After you have added, you have told that you have restarted shared services. But ,when you configure a new user directory, I would recommend you to restart shared services along with the other application related services ( like essbase, planning).
    3. Now, if you want to use the users of newly configured User directory, search the user from the directory and assign the roles/preveleges . Then try to login into systems( shared services , planning or essbase ...etc).
    Revert for further clarity.

  • Transferring files from iMac to External Drive issues. Please help

    I have a 500gb Western Digital external hard-drive. I began using it on a PC, but got a Mac a couple of months ago. There are a couple of problems that I am encountering. First of all, the folders that I had on my external drive (music, movies etc.) are all locked, and no matter what I try on the Mac, I cannot unlock them.
    That really did not cause too much of an issue, because I would just drag them onto the drive, and put them in the proper folders when I connected it to a Windows machine.
    However, recently when I try to transfer an album from the Mac to the external, I get an error message that says:
    The finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "Song/Album.mp3" could not be read or written. (error code -36)
    Basically my two questions are how do I unlock the folders on my external drive, and what is causing this error to start all of a sudden?
    Any help would be appreciated

    Open up Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. Select your external drive on the left then under the Erase tab select MS-DOS(FAT) as your volume format. Keep in mind that re-formatting your drive will erase all of the data so make sure you have it all backed up on your computer before you re-format.

    Are you replacing your PC with the iMac or are you still going to use both computers?

  • Irecruitment external candidate issue- Urgent Plz

    Hi All,
    We are having irecruitment enabled for the external site visitors in the website. This is working fine with the IE7 version. Now users are using IE 8 version and they are facing some problems like not able to upload the resume.
    So my question is, Is there any setups we need to do for the IE 8 version of the irecruitment version.
    Thanks and Regards,
    joshna.

    From this post i came to know that we need the form updation is required, if we update the forms versions. We may face different issues which can't be expected. So i want suggestion from you people to go forward.This is a must to meet the minimum requirements and ensure that your client browser and OS are certified with Oracle EBS.
    What i suggest to the client is enable a tip message in the External site visitor page that This application is not compatible to the IE 8 for time being, but i need to fix it asap.I believe there is no other fix (or workaround). If you do not want to apply the required patches to meet the minimum requirements, then you may log a SR and see if Oracle support would help (I doubt it since they will ask it to apply those patches first).
    Thanks,

  • TableLayout issues ***Urgent, please help***

    Gurus,
    First off, singleDefaultColumn layout is not an option. I'm using tableLayout to format my UIX.
    The problem lies with the fact that I'm using for cellformat to form a 1X4 grid. In order to align the messageTextInput properly, I'm having to supress it's prompt. The label for it is created as a messageStyledText in a different cell. Basically, the format of the page is as follows...
    Pickup Contact: <pickup_contact> Delivery contact: <delivery_contact>
    Pickup Address: <pickup_address> Delivery address: <delivery_address>
    Pickup City: <pickup_city> Delivery City: <delivery_city>
    Pickup State: <pickup_state> Delivery State: <delivery_state>
    Pickup Zip: <pickup_zip> Delivery Zip: <delivery_zip>
    Pickup Country: <pickup_country> Delivery Country: <delivery_country>
    Here's the problem. When configuring messageTextInput as required, it misaligns the input boxes with the other inputs and doesn't provide a proper warning message (since there is no prompt). The UIonly option allows me to visually assign a required icon but provides no validation when assigning to messageStyledText since it's not related to the messageInput text.
    So basically what I have is ... (and doesn't look very pretty) ... notice the (*) fields are not aligned with Contact and Country fields.
    Pickup Contact: <pickup_contact> Delivery contact: <delivery_contact>
    Pickup Address: *<pickup_address> Delivery address: *<delivery_address>
    Pickup City: *<pickup_city> Delivery City: *<delivery_city>
    Pickup State: *<pickup_state> Delivery State: *<delivery_state>
    Pickup Zip: *<pickup_zip> Delivery Zip: *<delivery_zip>
    Pickup Country: <pickup_country> Delivery Country: <delivery_country>
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -Scott

    I was able to resolve this issue by creating a 1x2 table layout. Setting the display lengths of messageTextInput equally. Adjusting both cellFormats to "right align". In doing so, I achieve desired results along with displaying correct labels for NOT NULL validation.

  • Filters Issue - urgent please!!

    Hello Experts,
    After checking the DBA guide, I did not find a limit for the number of filter rows that can be inside one filter nor the number of filters a group can have assigned to it (assuming more than one database).
    For instance, I have several filters on one database based off a large dimension with approximately 75 "read @IDESC("member")" and I wanted to know what the actual limit on filter rows are since 75 might be approaching that number (we normally have one or two rows).
    Also, in a related question, what is the maximum total number of filters (e.g., databases) that a group can have assigned to it? That is, if I have one filter like the above for N databases, and I assign them all to one group for filter access, what's the maximum number than N can represent?
    Please suggest.
    Thank You,
    Sonu

    I just went digging through the API and I don't see anything specific about limiting how many filters you can have. I would guess that the limit isn't strictly defined, however, the more you have the more processing has to be done on them. If there is some sort of limit I'd think maybe it's a power of 2 (like 128 or 256). If you want to check, maybe you can setup a quick filter-granting script that creates a hundred or two hundred filters and sees if the system takes it. Of course, hopefully there'd be a better way to dole out permissions than this -- like using a UDA or the DESCENDANTS of some member or something.

  • External authentication for Essbase 7.1.6.

    Hi all,
    We are trying to set up external authentication for Essbase 7.1.6. We have a customized version of Essbase which does not use DLL. we do not have a Hyperion Hub or any CSS set up. All we have is an authentication module from the vendor to be used instead of the DLL. As per the documents provided to us all we have to do is change the cfg file to include the AUTHENTICATIONMODULE setting. Does anyone has any experience with this? What all parameters do we need to pass to Active Directory for this to work? Please help.
    Thanks.
    Vish.

    You could create a maxl script that replaces the filters, when you call the maxl script you could pass in a variable such as YR08 and use that variable in the script.
    Cheers

  • AD External Authentication Plug-In verification issue

    We are working on a Proof of Concept instance to integrate MS AD with OID for the first time for E-Biz 11i.

    How to debug ldapcompare ? Where is the logfile for ldapcompare ?
    ldapcompare -h OID_Host -p 389 -D "cn=orcladmin" -w ******* -b "cn=lastname\, firstname,ou=consultants,ou=users,ou=usaeast,dc=adadmin,dc=lps,dc=netsrv,dc=us" -a userPassword -v abcdefgh
    The value abcedefgh is not contained in the attribute userPassword in DN cn=lastname\, firstname,ou=consultants,ou=users,ou=usaeast,dc=adadmin,dc=lps,dc=netsrv,dc=us.
    An ldapbind on the same AD server is successful, but ldapcompare is failing.

    I get invalid credentials. Though the network password is correct. I feel its somewhere i messed up the 3rd party plug-in configuration. Is there a method to get debug information for ldapcompare command ?
    From metalink NOTE : 277382.1
    "When using the above command, ldapcompare binds to OID using the OID admin user (typically "cn=orclAdmin") and password. Then it provides the AD username and requests that the value supplied as AD-USER-PASSWORD be compared to whatever is stored in AD username's userPassword attribute. Because OID does not store a value in its own user entries/userPassword attributes for AD-synchronized entries, this ldapcompare call will cause OID to invoke the plug-in and verify the userPassword value in AD instead.
    If the plug-in works, the ldapcompare should return a message saying that the given password is contained in the userpassword attribute, e.g.

  • External authentication on Essbase 9.3.1

    I am migrating from Essbase 7.3.x on 32-bit Windows to System9 on 64-bit windows. External authentication works on both Shared Services and EAS. I have successfully registered EAS and Essbase with shared services however I do not see Essbase in "User console" of Shared Services as an application. I am able to create native authenticated users in Essbase but unable to externalise the security. I get the following error messages when trying to externalise:
    Error: 1051549: Can not convert Analytic Services to Shared Services mode when Analytic Services is not configured with Shared Services or the initialization process has failed
    On starting Essbase, I see the following error message when I use the same CSSconfig file as used by shared services:
    [Wed Jul 16 10:26:45 2008]Local/ESSBASE0///Error(1051223)
    Single Sign On function call [css_init] failed with error [getOSVersion]
    [Wed Jul 16 10:26:45 2008]Local/ESSBASE0///Info(1051198)
    Single Sign-On Initialization Failed !
    If I point to the current CSS file used in production Essbase 7, I get the following message:
    [Wed Jul 16 10:33:26 2008]Local/ESSBASE0///Error(1051223)
    Single Sign On function call [css_init] failed with error [-1]
    [Wed Jul 16 10:33:26 2008]Local/ESSBASE0///Info(1051198)
    Single Sign-On Initialization Failed !
    In either case everything except External Authentication on System9 for Essbase works.
    Both shared services and Essbase are on the same 64-bit Windows box.
    Any help in resolving this will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Vikram.

    HI:
    I recommand following these steps:
    1. Go to the box where you have your Essbase installed
    2. Pull up the Shared Services Configuration Utility
    3. Select COmponent to be registered as Essbase
    4. Remeber to stop the essbase - i assume you are getting the error hence essbae would not have loaded.
    5. Re-register Essbase with Shared services
    6.Start essbase in Foreground
    It shuld Start :) good Luck..let me know If this failed..
    Thanks,
