Access url parameters in oracle apex

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the solution for the following
i am calling my apex application from java code via url, i am passing username and password in the url
now i want to authenticate the user how can i do?
how can i obtain the username and password in apex and check from my database?
Thanks and regards

Hi Denes,
Thanks for the reply
I will be encrypting my username and password via some java code and then i would be sending it in the url.
Is there any other and better way to pass username and password to apex application via java code??
Now in my application i want to check the username and password that has been passed from the url exist in my database or not.
how can i do that?
At this step i would also like to decrypt username and password, how can i achieve that?
this is what i mean by my second question.
Let me just brief about my situation
i am having one java application, in which i need to provide a link which directs to my apex application.
the username and password i have used to login in my java app needs to be checked in my apex application.
i cannot provide a separate login page for this one so i need to pass the username and password.
Thanks,

Can I access URL parameters?

Is it possible to access URL parameters from a WebStart application?
Example:
http://www.domain.com/example.jnlp?parameter1=43
I would like to initialize my JWS app using the information given to me in parameter1.
Is this possible? I believe that this would be very powerful.
Thanks.

If your www.domain.com/example.jnlp is a CGI script or servlet that returns a .jnlp file with
<application-desc>
<argument>43</argument>
</application-desc>and you retrieve that parameter from args[1], it might work.

How to set/get URL-parameters from ORACLE -tag?

How do I set/get parameters in a URL, using the <ORACLE>-tag?
We are trying to create a UI Template containing a dynamic
stylesheet selection dialogue on top of every page. The question
we are facing now is how to pass parameters (in our case,
stylesheet settings) between different pages.
Any ideas/comments are appreciated!

How to access url parameters in query builder side

I call a report via url and it works fine but now i want to use lexical parametrs.
I create a lexical parameter in the report but how can i establish relation between url parametrs and lexical parametrs from report?

Calling APEX form with dynamic parameters from Oracle Apps 11.5.8

I have successfully managed to setup access to APEX forms from Oracle Apps 11.5.8 menus utilising Form Functions passing a number of hardcoded parameter values as outlined in the document, http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/Extend_Oracle_Applications_11i.pdf.
I am now trying to ZOOM from an Oracle Form passing values of form items (dynamic parameters) to an APEX form. I have so far not been able to do this.
I've also tried using;
web.show_document('http://derep.obup.co.uk:4657/pls/apex/f?p=100:1::::::p1_cust_account_id:'||name_in('ast_cu_act.account_id')||':', '_TOP');
but this prompts for a username/password again as this bypasses the APEX Launch process that is defined in my Form Function.
Is this possible in the parameters section of Form Functions? or elsewhere.

Naeem

Hi Daan
We do havea couple of customers doing this, they have taken two approaches:
1. Install XMLP on a separate server entirely - kick off conc request to extract data and then use Java Messaging Service (JMS) to push the resulting XML to the external server where they are using AQ to set up jobs for the XMLP server to work through, generating and delivering the final documents.
2. Set XMLP up as a virtual printer - here the conc request again generates XML but this time the result is directed to a virtual printer namely XMLP. There is a perl or similar wrapper that gets called as the printer and accepts the data, template, output format and delivery destination as parameters.
Apologies for the 10,000 feet overview, hope it helps. Tim

Can Oracle APEX access/report against an Oracle9i datbase?

Can Oracle APEX access/report against an Oracle9i datbase? I know APEX has to be installed on Oracle 11g or 12c. I have a 11g environment to install it in, but I want to have ti read data from an existing 9i databasethat we are unable to upgrade at this time.

APEX can create reports on any data that the database (which is running APEX) can access.
This becomes a database question that is usually found in the General forum:
How can an Oracle 11g database access data from an <place a name of a database here> database?
One common answers: Database Links.
(Materialized Views and Golden Gate come to mind... but, again... these are database problems, not APEX problems.)
I'll let others comment on the practicality of these solutions.

How to access GET-parameters in portal url

Is it possible to access GET-parameters in a bsp application in an iview in the enterprise portal, and if so, how do I do it?
If you look at the url of this post (/message/1514719#1514719 [original link is broken])
I would like to have the value of "forumID" in the bsp application in the iview with shortlink "thread".

Raja,
your solution is what I was initially looking for, so thank you.
Can you also supply a link to the article you refer to? I can't find it:-)
But while looking for this I found something even better, a way to pass parameters to an iview without having to define them in the iview ApplicationParameter-property.
Apparently the trick is to add the parameter "DynamicParameter" to the url, that translates to different parameters in your bsp application(iview).
So if you want your bsp application to have the parameters "roomid=555&date=01.01.2007" your url should be
http://bla/irj/portal/rooms?DynamicParameter=roomid%3D555%26date%3d01.01.2007
where %3D is the ascii representation of "=" and %26 is the ascii representation of &.
I found this here : /message/529588#529588 [original link is broken] , but in this thread they say to separate the parameters by a ";", whereas for me it only works when i use %26 (&).

Error # 3021 - Invalid Relation. --- MS Access to Oracle APEX

Hello everybody.
I have 3 years working with Oracle APEX and now I have the need to migrate an Access database to Oracle and APEX.
I have:
- MS Access 2003 database
- Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04.34
- Oracle 10g Database
I will try to provide all the relevant information.
I used the Access Exporter for Access 2003 tool from Oracle SQL Developer to creat both .xml (for SQL Dev) file and .sql file (for APEX) but the process show me an error mesassge that said: "Error # 3021 - Invalid Relation. No current record".
I read in OTN forum that it was because the migration tool can not access the system tables and that I need to modify permisions to allow "Read Data". I did this process and I was able to create .xml file, however if I chose Application Express to create .sql file or the option to create both files the same error shows.
I have been reading in this forum but didn't find a way to solve it.
Does any body knows how to solve this issue?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,
I can't reproduce your issue.
Have you double-checked that the tables MSysAccessObjects, MSysACEs, MSysObjects, MSysQueries and MSysRelationships are visible and that the Admin user has at least Read Design and Read Data permission on those tables?
If that is the case, and the problem still happens, and you are able to give a copy of your .mdb file to Oracle, then I suggest to open a Service Request with Oracle Support so that the issue can be investigated.

Parameters on Oracle JDBC URL

I wonder if anyone can help.
I am writing a Java class which uses a JDBC PreparedStatement object to call a stored procedure on an Oracle database.
To create the PreparedStatement object I use the prepareStatement method of the Connection object.
I do not create the Connection object - this is important - it is passed into my method by another piece of code I cannot change.
I need to specify some connection properties - specifically 'SetBigStringTryClob'. All the documentation I can find says that properties such as this can be passed to the Connection when it is created via a Properties object like this:
// Load the database details into the variables.
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl";
String user = "scott";String password = "tiger";
// Create the properties object that holds all database details
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("user", user );
props.put("password", password);
props.put("SetBigStringTryClob", "true");
// Load the Oracle JDBC driver class.
DriverManager.registerDriver(new OracleDriver());
// Get the database connection
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection( this.url, this.props );
I cant do this as I dont create the Connection object. What I can do is specify the URL, so I'm thinking I should be able to specify my connection properities as url parameters - but I cant get it to work and I cant find anything anywhere that tells me how to do it.
Any ideas?
Alternatively I'm thinking that maybe there is a method of Connection where I can specify these properties - essentially after its been created - but again, I cant find anything
Any help with this would be very much appreciated;
Cheers
Nathan

Can you use the 11g drivers?
See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/java.111/b31224/oralob.htm#CHDGJJDD
Specifically the Input section
Otherwise, is there any reason not to use the Oracle specific extensions? i.e. setStringForClob()

Insert a record into a table through email in an Oracle APEX application

I developed an Oracle APEX application, there is a table called events. I can insert/update/delete a record in the table through browser. I am thinking in order to quickly do the data entry, user should be able to send an email, then the table should be inserted with values from email address, timestamp, subject and body. Anyd idea how to realize this functionality?
- Denis

Start by checking whether your mail server provides any API's for accessing emails , if it does you might be able to reduce a lot of work by using some kind of web service consumer from apex to your mail server. In any case your implementation is going to be dependent on your Mail Server configuration.
Your problem breaks down to reading/accessing mails from the mail server from PLSQL (apex is driven by PLSQL).
I found this other thread which could be of some use.
WAY TO ACCESS A MAIL SERVER FROM ORACLE APEX
<li>The following package might solve your problem directly(from carsten czarski of the German Apex community)
[url http://plsqlmailclient.sourceforge.net]http://plsqlmailclient.sourceforge.net
PS: POP3 support is still TBD.
<li>I also found this posting in the orafaq forums which lists a java method and PLSQL code bit for it for accessing emails via POP3
[url http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/80928/2/]http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/80928/2/
If these do not work for you, find some java library to read mail from your server, write a PLSQL wrapper for it and use it in a scheduled job(DBMS_JOB)/a PLSQL block triggered from Apex.
If you get stuck there, find some utility that can read mails, invoke them from your DB using java,shell scrpt,dbms_scheduler etc and use the utility's function for the rest.
NOTE: I haven't tried any of these utilities and you must validate any java code before running them on your environment.
Since aren't really much restrictions(other than spam checks) in sending a mail to your mail account, you might want to consider filtering out the mails from which you create records.

Step 2: Installed Oracle apex 3.2 on my location Machine with the below steps again
1> SQL> CONNECT SYS as SYSDBA
2> apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/

So if you have installed on your workstation/laptop you can simply try http://localhost:8080/apex

Oracle Apex Authentication with EBS

Hello ,
My name is Ramiz.
I have Oracle Applications EBS suite with 10g and Oracle Apex on seperate 10g.
Now, I am trying to use same user-id and password of EBS to login into Oracle Apex. I have performed following steps from this url.
(http://skrajend.blogspot.com/2007/06/htmldb-authentication-with-oracle.html)
1. I have dblink between two database nodes (i.e. EBS database and Apex database )
2. I have created following function as well on EBS database.
====
SQL> create or replace function ebiz_suite_auth (p_username IN VARCHAR2, p_password IN VARCHAR2)
return boolean
as
begin
if fnd_web_sec.validate_login(p_username, p_password) = 'Y' then
return true;
else
return false;
end if;
end;
====
2. Now in second step from above url , Author is granting execute priv to
user "HTMLDB" like following
SQL> grant execute on ebiz_suite_auth to htmldb;
But , my question is that Apex is installed on different 10g so in above
execute statement which user should I give execute to ? Do I have to create same user of Apex in EBS database and give exec priv ? but than how does it going to talk to EBS database ?
3. I have created the Authentication Scheme as the steps described in the above url.
=================
2nd approach which is same as above except but here user is not giving
any exec priv
===============
create auth function ( as above)
Create a new Authentication Scheme
•Select From Scratch
•Enter a Name
•Leave Sentry Functionempty
•Leave Session Verification Functionempty
•Set Invalid Session Target= ApExBuilt in Login Page
•Leave Pre-Authentication Processempty
Select Use my custom function to authenticatefor
the Credentials Authentication Method and enter
return custom_ebiz_suite_auth;
for the Authentication Function
•Leave the Post-Authentication Processempty
•Leave all Cookie Informationempty
•Enter
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.logout?p_this_flo
w=&APP_ID.&p_next_flow_page_sess=&APP_ID.:
1:&SESSION.
for the Logout URL(all on one line)
•Create & Activate your Authentication Scheme
I performed 2nd approach too but it doesn't work for me because
my Apex is installed in seperate 10g and EBS is in sperate 10g. 2nd approach is from a perosn name SCOTT.

Hi I have followed steps given
in http://balajiabhi.blogspot.com/2009/03/integrating-apex-in-r12-with-oracle.html
i.e I followed R12 direct installing not installed separate OHS....
I have installed Apex in Datbase and them modified dads.conf located on 10.1.3 home of R12 ebusiness suite with following
<Location pls/apex_R12>
Order deny,allow
PlsqlDocumentPath docs
AllowOverride None
PlsqlDocumentProcedure wwv_flow_file_mgr.process_download

Getting error while importing the application in Oracle Apex

Hi,
I am facing an issue while importing an application into my new Oracle Apex installation. Installation was successful with out any issue. I exported an application from my old Apex (version 3.0.0.00.20) and importing the same into new apex (version 3.0.1.00.08). I am getting the following error.
============================================================
The requested URL /pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept was not found on this server.
============================================================
When I click on import in Application Builder page and then browse the required file it gives the progress saying "Importing File" and after some time it displays the above error.
I tried bouncing the application also and there is not error in alert log.
Could any one please suggest, if there is some problem here. Or my approach is not correct.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Advait Deo

Osacar, I recommend that you try to import the application into your workspace on apex.oracle.com and see what happens. Also, refine the problem statement as much as you can, e.g., you get this error importing "the application" or when importing "any" application. How big is the file you're trying to import? Where did it come from? Can you upload images?
