Access Session variable across the hosts

Hi,
I am facing an issue. Please find the following scenario.
I have a login page which is under a secure host. When the login is successfull, the control will be directed to a non secure host, where I have to access a session variable which is set in the LoginPage (which is a secure host). Can I do this?
Can any one help me in solving this
regards,
Jo

To retreive a varable from another JVM or indeed another host you would need to use Remote Method Invokation (RMI), calling getSecureSessionID() or isSessionOK(sessionID) or whatever from the programme running in the remote JVM.
The method in general is floored unless the RMI is secure, I have no experience of encrypting this but I'm sure it is possible. You're non-secure-host must have the funcionality to communicate with the secure-host securly, otherwise the secure-host is not secure.

Is there any way to access session variable inside AM module custom function?
I created one client interface function in AM and want to access one session variable value inside AM custom function.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi
here i need help to find out right approach,my use case are below
1.User will login thorough SSO .
2.Based on used id i need to display user data in table form.
3.User-id will need to display in right corner of page template ( JSF page with this page template)
4.user can update/create new table data by pressing update/createinsert button.
5.Once user press the create new request button,one empty row will popup which have user-id filled automatically (used-id who logged in) and will read only ,so that once user commit the data,DB can update/insert the data with that user-id
so far i have done point 1,2,4 and 5 like
1.i created AM preparesession and store the use id.
2.i have putted whereclause in AM for particular VO and run execute query and able to see particular user data,who logged in.

Is this the right approach ? and now i am not able to do step 3 so how to display same user-id in pagetemplate as this value is available in AM only.

Accessing session variables with php

I am trying to access the session variable $_SESSION['MM_Username'] in one of my php pages, but it is somehow showing empty (i.e it does not contain the username that was entered during login).
I checked and confirmed that my login.php function is properly setting the MM_Username session variable by echoing it from the login function.
So why can't I read it from another php file in the same session? Do I need to do something else before the session variables can
be properly read from any php file in the same session? Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a test code I am using to access the session variable $_SESSION['MM_username'] from the php page test.php. But it is not working.
I get an empty string all the time for $username. Can any one see something wrong with this code?
<?php require_once('Connections/MyTestingConn.php'); ?>
<?php session_start(); ?>
<?php
$username = "-1";
if (isset($_SESSION['MM_username'])) {
$username = $_SESSION['MM_username'];
echo $username;
else
echo "Eror: can not access session variable";
?>

Access Session variable inside Transaction

Hi All,
Is it possible to access session variables inside Transaction.
Create session variable.
Update session variable value
acccess Session variable.
(user session)
Regards,
Sachin

Hi Sachin,
Here is the snapshot:
1. Take session variable in a local JS variable in HTML page.
2. Create a transaction with a input type variable in Transaction Properties.
3. Create a Xacute query and link the above transaction.
4. Creata a iCommand applet on HTML page and link the query template:
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE=".../QueryName">
Call the function in the below way in HTML:
Applet.getQueryObject().setParam(1,vaiable)
So, the session variable will go to TRX (BLT) and perform the operations as per your need..
You can pass it to other TRX by the same way.
To fetch the value: Create output type variable in TRX 2. Create Xacute query.
Get the value with : Applet.getValue(1,1)
Hope it is useful.
Best Regards,
Kedar

Trying to move a list of form variables to session variables of the same name

I am trying to move a list of form variables to session variables of the same name and I am having a lot of trouble.
I have never had to post of this forum with a language question in all the 10 years I have been using ColdFusion. I was a qa Engineer @ Allaire/Macromedia back when it was going from one to the other. I have a pretty good grasp of the language.
I have software that runs off a list. The fieldnames are variable and stored off in an array. It's survey software that runs off a "meta file". In this example; I have the number of fields in the survey set to 12 in the "metafile". I have each field declared in that file in array Session.SurveyField[1] and the above loop works fine. I include this "metafile" at the start of the process.
I cfloop around a struct and it works wherever I have needed to use it; such as here - writing to the database for example;
<CFQUERY NAME="InsertRec" DATASOURCE="Survey">
INSERT into #variables.SurveyTableName#
(EntryTime
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
,#Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]#
</cfloop>

 VALUES
 ('#EntryTime#'
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thisname = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
,'#evaluate(variables.thisname)#'
</cfloop>

</CFQUERY>
NOW HERE'S THE PROBLEM: I am running into trouble when trying to move the form variables to session variables of the same name. It is the only part of the software that I still need the datanames hard coded and that is a roadblock for me.
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thissessionfield = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfset thisformfield = "Form." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = #evaluate(thisformfield)#>
</cfloop>
I have tried it with or without the "evaluate"; same result. It doesn't give an error; it just ignores them (session variables look as such in the next page in the chain)
q01_name=
q02_acadtechorna=
q03_water=
q04_firstaid=
q05_cpr=
q06_lifeguard=
q07_aed=
q08_projadv=
q09_color=
q10_santaclaus=
q11_supervisor=
q12_supervisoropinion=
Note: they exist because I CFPARAM them in a loop like the above at the start of the procedure) - and this works just fine!
<cflock scope="Session" type="EXCLUSIVE" timeout="30">
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset dataname = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfparam name="#variables.dataname#" default="">
</cfloop>
</cflock>
I EVEN tried exploiting the Form.Fieldnames list using CFLoop over the list and the same sort of logic within and it still gives me nothing....
Here's the FORM.FIELDNAMES value
"Q01_NAME,Q02_ACADTECHORNA,Q03_WATER,Q04_FIRSTAID,Q05_CPR,Q06_LIFEGUARD,Q07_AED,Q08_PROJAD V,Q09_COLOR,
Q10_SANTACLAUS,Q11_SUPERVISOR,Q12_SUPERVISOROPINION"
Here's the logic; SAME RESULT - The session variables don't get set.
<cfoutput>
<cfloop list="#Form.FieldNames#" index="thisfield">

<cfscript>
thisSESSIONfield = "Session." & thisfield;
thisFORMfield = "Form." & thisfield;
#thisSESSIONfield# = #thisFORMfield#;
</cfscript>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
The CFPARAM in a loop with variable output name works just fine; so does the post (which I included above) as does the SQL Create, Param Form Variables, Param Session Variables, etc.
THIS even works for moving BLANK to each session variable, to zero them all out at the end of the process;
<cflock scope="Session" type="EXCLUSIVE" timeout="30">
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thislocalfield = Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfscript>
thissessionfield = "Session." & thislocalfield;
</cfscript>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = "">
</cfloop>
</cflock>
Expanding on that code, you would think this would work, but it doesn't;
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thislocalfield = Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfscript>
thissessionfield = "Session." & thislocalfield;
thisformfield = "Form." & thislocalfield;
</cfscript>


<cfoutput>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = "#evaluate(thisformfield)#">
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
And see that debug code in the middle? To add insult to injury... When I uncomment that it shows me this. So it certainly looks like this should work....
Session.q01_name = "Me"
Session.q02_AcadTechORNA = "N/A"
Session.q03_Water = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q04_FirstAid = "Yes (certificate is current)"
Session.q05_CPR = "No"
Session.q06_LifeGuard = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q07_AED = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q08_ProjAdv = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q09_Color = "Gray"
Session.q10_SantaClaus = "Yes"
Session.q11_Supervisor = "Da Boss"
Session.q12_SupervisorOpinion = "Not a bad thing"
There must be some simpler way to do this. This way won't work against all odds even though it seems so much like it should.
So I end up having to hardcode it; still looking for an automated way to set these #@%$*@!## session variables over the list from the form variables of the same @#@!$#%$%# name. Do I sound frustrated???
No matter what I do, if I don't HARDCODE like this;
<cfset Session.q01_name = Form.q01_name>
<cfset Session.q02_AcadTechORNA = Form.q02_AcadTechORNA>
<cfset Session.q03_Water = Form.q03_Water>
<cfset Session.q04_FirstAid = Form.q04_FirstAid>
<cfset Session.q05_CPR = Form.q05_CPR>
<cfset Session.q06_LifeGuard = Form.q06_LifeGuard>
<cfset Session.q07_AED = Form.q07_AED>
<cfset Session.q08_ProjAdv = Form.q08_ProjAdv>
<cfset Session.q09_Color = Form.q09_Color>
<cfset Session.q10_SantaClaus = Form.q10_SantaClaus>
<cfset Session.q11_Supervisor = Form.q11_Supervisor>
<cfset Session.q12_SupervisorOpinion = Form.q12_SupervisorOpinion>
I always get this from my next page because the session variables are empty;
You must answer question 1.
You must answer question 2.
You must answer question 3.
You must answer question 4.
You must answer question 5.
You must answer question 6.
You must answer question 7.
You must answer question 8.
You must answer question 9.
You must answer question 10.
I tried duplicate as well, but I can not get the above to work...
Can anyone help me do this thing that one would think is simple????

I think if you use structure array syntax you should get the results you want.
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
 <cfset session[Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]] = Form[Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]]>
</cfloop>
Or probably even easier.
<cfset session = duplicate(form)>

Using Session Variable in the Column Level Security

My Question -
1. I created an initialization block with initialization string by calling a new session variable CTP_ID_LIST in the sql command, given appropriate database connections and when I exit out of Block, and chosen Row-wise initialization. I do not see a new session variable created under variables list. Why does this happen? Please help me on this.

Hi,
This happens when you select Row-wise Initialization.
The row-wise initialization feature allows you to create session variables dynamically and set their values when a session begins. The names and values of the session variables reside in an external database that you access through a connection pool. The variables receive their values from the initialization string that you type in the Initialization Block dialog box.
You can also use the row-wise initialization feature to initialize a variable with a list of values. You can then use the SQL IN operator to test for values in a specified list.
Example: Using the table values in the previous example, you would type the following SQL statement for the initialization string:
select 'LIST_OF_USERS', USERID
from RW_SESSION_VARS
where NAME='STATUS' and VALUE='FULL-TIME'
This SQL statement populates the variable LIST_OF_USERS with a list, separated by colons, of the values JOHN and JANE; for example, JOHN:JANE. You can then use this variable in a filter, as shown in the following WHERE clause:
where TABLE.USER_NAME = valueof(NQ_SESSION.LIST_OF_USERS)
The variable LIST_OF_USERS contains a list of values, that is, one or more values. This logical WHERE clause expands into a physical IN clause, as shown in the following statement:
where TABLE.USER_NAME in ('JOHN', 'JANE')

How to pass a session variable to the bussines layer?

Hello,
I am doing a management application, and I need to store the login user that make insertions on any table, and the pages does not has backing beans.
I had try to do that bindding the value field of a hidden attribute with the session variable, but it only change the value of the one. My second attempt was make an javascript function to do that on the page´s load, but it not looks like a good solution.
Someone knows a way to sent the session value to the bussines layer? O a way to access from the Bussines layer to the session?
Thanks
Tony


Hi,


Another solution (that I always use) is storing simultaneously the same data in HttpSession (in view layer) and session hashtable (in businness layer).


You can put and get these data in any businness component using following methods:



private void setToJboSession(String key, Object val){
 Hashtable userData = getDBTransaction().getSession().getUserData();
if (userData == null) {
userData = new Hashtable();
userData.put(key, val);
}


and



private Object getFromJboSession(String key){
return getDBTransaction().getSession().getUserData().get(key);
}

Access session variable in Java Function in JSP

Hi Experts !!
I am developing an application using STRUTS MVC...
Very sorry if u have problem understanding my question, i ll try to improve... and sorry if i can't post codes here
Basic question is ....
I want to open a word document on pageLoad of JSP, the word document is not a single document, there is a form in which there is a "name" and "template" whenever user clicks on a button there is one action attached to it which creates a copy of that template in a different folder.. on the next page OnLoad i want to open that particular document. for that i have created a variable and also have set in the session, just want to access it in the below code.
I have a formbean in which i have a variable, the scope is session, that variable i have put it in session also. but i want to access that variable in a "java function" in JSP so that "onLoad" page that function should work.
JSP---
<script type="text/javascript">
function openDocument() {
var w = new ActiveXObject("Word.Application");
var docText;
var obj;
var a;
if (w != null) {
w.Visible = true;
obj = w.Documents.Open(I HAVE TO ACCESS THAT VARIABLE HERE);
</script>
FORMBEAN----
public class CreateSOWFormBean extends ActionForm {
private String workflowName;
private String comment;
private String sowTemplate;
private String sowFileCreated;
public String getSowFileCreated() {
return sowFileCreated;
public void setSowFileCreated(String sowFileCreated) {
this.sowFileCreated = sowFileCreated;
sowFileCreated is the variable that i have accessed in session and that value i have to pass in that function in JSP....
I am aware of something like
obj = w.Documents.Open(<%'sowFileCreated'%>);
but i m not sure how to write....
Plz help.....

If you're working under a framework like struts you should definitely be using JSTL tags rather than scriptlet code to access variables within the page. With JSTL code <% codes can be almost entirely avoided.
To transfer a value from a Servlet to a JSP don't use a session variable, use a request attribute. Session variables should only be used when values have to survive from one transaction to another.
You can write something like:
obj = w.Documents.open('<c:out value="${openURL}"/>');in the Javascript portion of your JSP.
Just beware of potential problems with quotes. The coresponding code in the Servlet would be like:
request.setAttribute("openURL", openUrl);

Accessing session variable in Flex.

Hi All,
   I'm using RemoteObjects for accessing data and using Spring BlazeDS. How to retrieve 'session' variable values in Flex?
   Main application which is calling different .mxml files. It first invokes login(login.mxml) page with successful user credentials it will display home(home.mxml) page and I have search(search.mxml) pages.
    In case user session timeouts then I'd like to send user request to login page for login.(say user is in search page and where he left for 30 minutes, after then when user clicks anything on search page, it should redisplay login page because session timeout is set to (25 minutes). How to do this Felx??
   Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sharath.

More detail solution will be found in the help.
Look for the following string in your local help (in flex builder): Communicating with the Wrapper.
You will probably find that you have to do something like the following:
a) call from flex to the wrapper page javascript function. (this would be a polling operation, run on a timer event (say) once every minute.
b) the javascript function you call conducts an Ajax call to determine the current session state.
Note that the above will likely keep your session state alive.
Another possibility is to pass in the value of your session timeout via a FlashVars variable.
Again, in a timer function run every minute, invcrement a local counter.
When local counter equals session passed in, then you might assume that the session has timed out.
IHTH.
Cheers

Accessing session variables PHP

I am trying to access a session variable from a log in form (using the Log In User Server Behavior) and am lost. I simply want to display the users information in the target page. I read in another discussion that I had to bind the variable to the target page, which I did, but that didn't fix it.
Please help.
Here is my loginFormAction code:
<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
$loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_GET['accesscheck'])) {
$_SESSION['PrevUrl'] = $_GET['accesscheck'];
if (isset($_POST['email'])) {
$loginUsername=$_POST['email'];
$password=$_POST['password'];
$MM_fldUserAuthorization = "";
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "owner.php";
$MM_redirectLoginFailed = "register.php";
$MM_redirecttoReferrer = false;
mysql_select_db($database_petriever, $petriever);
$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT email, password FROM owners WHERE email=%s AND password=%s",
 GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text"));
$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $petriever) or die(mysql_error());
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
if ($loginFoundUser) {
 $loginStrGroup = "";
 //declare two session variables and assign them
 $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
 $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;
 if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) {
 $MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];
 header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess );
else {
 header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed );
?>

Wherever you want to display the logged-in username simply place this on the first line of a .php page to start the session:
<?php session_start(); ?>
Then place this code wherever you want to display the username:
<?php echo $_SESSION['MM_Username']; ?>

Accessing session variables

Hi ,
I have session variable defined using portals (forms or plsql portlets).
Can i access these variables using jsp portlets ??

"145822",
If your application with application id 100, for example, uses a common authentication scheme with application 200 (using the same cookie name in the case of an HTML DB style authentication scheme), then the two applications can run in the same session. A potential benefit of this, even if the two apps are not intricately related, is that the user has only to authenticate once per new session and will have access to both apps. If you set it up this way, then app 100 can access app 200's items in the same session using this function from within app 100: htmldb.application.fetch_app_item(p_item=>'ITEM_NAME',p_app=>200);Scott

Access Session Variable

Hi All,
I am using cutom autentication schema called "My Auth Scheme". I want to hide some of the menu options (Tree List) based on the Role Type.
Could anybody give me any pointer about how to acheive this. And most importantly how to access the session variable (Though I am not even sure about Role Type is going into session or not). Please guide me..
Regards
Amit Arora

Amit,
You're using a lot of terms that you have not defined:
I am using cutom autentication schema called "My Auth Scheme". It's an authentication scheme but what is the relevance of it being custom (in what way is it custom and how is that relevant?) and why do we care what you named it?
I want to hide some of the menu options (Tree List) based on the Role Type. "Role Type" -- What is that?
And most importantly how to access the session variable ...What do you mean? What session variable?
Please describe your exact functional requirements, what you are doing now to achieve them and how your actual results differ from the expected results. Also, show us all of the code you are using and demonstrate the problem on apex.oracle.com so we can see exactly what you're trying to do.
