Please help, its urgent.

i have followed line to line as per post installation tasks given in sun site. No logs are generated in policy agent. i.e
bcoz policy agent is not at all intercepting the request. do we need to do any thing more to add a filter in websphere 6.1
To give you background:
This is a clustered enviornment and each node has 3 instances [ appserver,nodeagent, websphere_portal]
we have installed the policy agent on each of the instances.
Now when i access the admin interface my policy agent intercept redirect to SSO.
When i access portal instance policy agent doesnt intercept
there are no logs generated in accessmanager or policagent.

Issue with retrieving WebI prompts through VBA SDK

Hello,
I am having difficulty retrieving WebI prompt values through my VBA code. I've noticed that the HasPrompts method works correctly, but when I try to retrieve the actual Prompt name / values, the collection is always empty.
If (DocumentItem.PluginInterface.hasprompts = True) Then
                msgbox ("prompts found")
                msgbox (DocumentItem.PluginInterface.Prompts.Item(1))
             Else
                msgbox ("no prompts found")
             End If
Any ideas as to why I am never able to see a populated collection of prompts, even when HasPrompts = True ?
Any ideas appreciated...
Thanks

Full craw issue with specific web application

We are using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise (15.0.4569.1000). We have public facing (publishing site) with anonymous access enabled on it. While crawling this site we are using default Content Source called "Local SharePoint sites" where we have following
settings.
Start Addresses - http://SP2013APPSRV
Crawl Settings - Crawl everything under the hostname for each start address
Crawl Schedules - Enable Incremental Crawls
With this configuration we try to perform Full Crawl of this content source. the status of this content source goes to "Starting" then to "Crawling Full" and after some time then to "Idle" state. The overall crawl duration never
goes beyond 3-4 minutes. With this if we check the "Crawl Log" screen then except for "Successes" = 1 every other column shows 0 even the "Errors" or "Top Level Errors" column shows no record. Getting into the Success
items we found that the crawling was only done for the single item which is nothing but the start address that was specified into the content source settings (http://sp2013appsrv). Because of this it seems the crawling is not working correctly to pull all
the sub contents of the given host URl, instead it only pulls the top level link. There is nothing helpful in Verbose - ULS logs or event viewer either.
With further analysis of this we found that this issue only exists with single web application only. Because adding another web application URL into the same Content Source does crawls all the contents properly of that web application but still shows single
index item for problematic web application.
Could someone please help us with this issue ?

Hi Ajay,
Based on your description, you have some problems in doing full crawl of a specify web application.
1. Check if the crawl account has 'full read' access to affected web application.
2. Check if allow this site to appear in search results in the search and offline availability in the site setting.
3. Check if you have
opened the urlMappings in SharePoint that will hinder the search function crawls. If you add the code as below into the web.config to open the
urlMappings, it will not crawl the web application.
<urlMappings
enabled="true">
<clear
/>
<add
url="~/Home.aspx"
mappedUrl="~/Default.aspx?tab=home"
/>
<remove
url="~/Home2.aspx"
/>
</urlMappings>
4. Try to reset your search index and then do a full crawl.
The article gives you the details about how to reset your search index.

Agent determination issue with no error, cant use SWPR?

Hello gurus.
We currently have 81 invoices that have workflow status "in process". However, the last line of this status is "agent determination issue". I've assigned the appropriate user in PFOM and i want to restart the workflow item, but i cannot use SWPR.
Normally it should be in error and you can use SWPR, and that fixes everything- however why is the workflow still "in process" and not in error? and how can i complete the workflow item now that the agent has been assigned? do i just create a new workflow using SWUE and delete the old one? Many thanks.

Hi,
OK then try like this , as you said you do not have authorizations to SWI1_RULE right so do teh below steps,
1. Execute SE37 and execute the fucntion module ALINK_CALL_TRANSACTION.
2. Now mention the txn name as SWI1_RULE.
3. Now you should be able to see teh initial screen of the txn.
4. Now enter teh workitem ID which is in ready state not the top workitem ID, the workitem for which the agent is not assigned. Click F8.
5. Now choose that workitem ID and click CTRL + SHIFT + F11.
it should re evalutae the agents, if this is also not determing then make a note of the RULE ID from activity step and open the txn by using the above function module and try to simulate the rule or please let us know what is the rule type.
Regards
Pavan

Issue with viewing SAP Dashboards Portal iView in iPad Safari browser (Mobile)

Hi,
I am facing an issue while viewing iViews hosted in SAP Enterprise Portal. I have two iViews -
1) An SAP BICS Dashboard - Published as an iView in EP. I can see the dashboard in my laptop running properly. It consumes BEx queries (BICS dashboard) in the background.
2) A BEx query published as an iView (java web format), also able to run and execute from my laptop.
When I am logging into the portal from IPad Safari web browser I am able to see and run the BEx query iView published in the portal.
However, for the SAP Dashboard iView, it is showing me a blank page after loading. Is it possible to see SAP BICS Dashboard through an iView in Ipad?
I need to run the dashboard iView from the IPad as well. It is an urgent requirement
Would really appreciate your help!!
Thanks,
Debtanay

I'm working in a Websphere Portal project using JSF and RAD6 to create the portlets. I like the way it works execept when I try to create popup windows. How can I create popup windows that they don't keep context the only one I can create is the HelpView page. Is there a way to call other forms from Helpview like a redirect or something like that or is any other way to create popup windows any help or suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks

Data Filter issue with

Hi,
We have created a document from an Essbase ASO cube.
A data filter have been created in Essbase ASO Cube. The data filter is 'all Europe Region'. When this data filter is applied to the user and user logs in WA and accesses the document, the below error is produced.
========================================================
Loading this document produced errors.
Unknown members or dimensions have been removed from the document in an attempt to fix the problem.
Saving this document now will prevent these errors when the document is loaded again.
[1033] Native: 1001005 [Fri Mar 06 16:59:20 2009]uxsy9dbt.cos.agilent.com/vip_main/vip_main//Error(1001005) Unknown Member [Americas] in Report
==============================================
With no data filter assigned to the user, the report is fine...
Tested the same data filter in Excel-addin and there are no issues/error. Is there any setting that needs to be changed in WebAnalysis?

Following up even thought his is an old issue. Out of the blue my users began complaining their security in Web Analysis had gone awry. Their security in Excel add-in was fine though.
Most users use a WA Shared Preferences File here. However one user, unbeknownst to me, was able to hard code their userID/password in the "database" connection for the Shared Preference. So anytime another user logged in to Web Analysis, if you open the View Pane to see all the details, the Database user was John Doe - which was wrong, but the WebAnalysis user was John Smith - which was correct. The John Doe user like I said somehow managed to "save" his userID/pwd as the default, which caused all other users to "pass through" to Essbase as John Doe instead of as themselves, which means they were getting HIS filter not their own.
I wasn't able to figure out how he did that but to fix it I deleted his profile then Edited the Shared Preferences File | Databases tab | highlight database in question and choose Edit | change "Default logon" back to "Use User's ID and Password" instead of "Enter User ID and Password...John Doe|Pwd".
It works fine now. Users get their same, correct security filters applied whether they go in to Web Analysis or Excel add-in. (In Web Analysis we have it set up to open a report at a certain location depending on their security filters, so this was causing us quite a headache until we figured out what the problem was).
I opened a case with Tech Support to try and shed light on how the user was able to hard-code their login credentials in to the Shared Preference. Everyone only has Read access to that file, so. ?

Issue with enabling password in portal

Dear all,
I have enabled "Logon Problems? Get Support" link in portal, so when they click on Get Support and enter they login id and email click on submit, they get mails with newly created password.

how to achive this?
or is there any ways i can restrict user to reset password only once per day through password mailing system.
Thanks inadvance!

Hi,
you can achieve this by doing a custom application on WDJ, not sure any standard config exists or not.
Develop a web dynpro application and the security question as any existing field (like email) in our UME. verify with UME and then display the password on the screen.
check this link on UME (java source) properties:

Issue with office web apps sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document.

Hi All,
i am having issue when trying to open the word file using office web apps farm. i have multi-tier farm (2 wfe, 2 apps and 2 owa). is that something wrong with certificate or the way AAM configured. Can anyone give me some direction please?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you failed to open the word file using office web app.
Please open the word file using office web app in other SharePoint sites and test whether this issue occurs. Also, please test whether all words have this issue.
Please reset IIS on the OWA server.
Please disconnect the SharePoint Farm from Office Web Apps and reconnect it. Then check the WOPIZone and TMG server.
Please created certificate for your PC and update mappings of IP addresses.

Security issues with calling web services from within Oracle?

I'd like to use a trigger to initiate pushing data to a web service, so I thought we should call the web service from PL/SQL in a DBMS job, or perhaps create a .NET stored proc to call the service. Our DB Lead is concerned about security, since the standard model is for clients to call the database, and not for the database to function as a client.
Does this pose any security risk? Can you refer me to any best practices or articles on this?
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: Kit.net on Nov 9, 2010 11:28 AM

First, a trigger is there to for a single sole purpose - guaranteeing the integrity of the data and the transaction. It is not there to interact with external services and processes (like mail, web and other services). Doing that exposes the transaction to those other processes/services. The transaction can now fail. not because of a business rule validation, but because of a network error when the trigger accesses an external service. How on earth can a business transaction fail when the transaction is valid, but a the transaction's trigger hit an external access error!?
And what happens do that event you have fired off in the trigger, when the transaction is rolled back? How do you undo that event you have created in the trigger that was based on uncommitted data?
So using a trigger like this is simply stupid (and yes, I have seen it too often in practice with horrible results to sugarcoat such an idiotic approach).
As for calling a web service from the database, using the database as the client in such a case. This is not a security risk. This is not unusual. In fact, it is very common in my experience. We have a lot of databases, ranging from SE to EE and several RAC clusters. All of them function as a client at some stage during processing. Some use a db link - and as a client fire off a SQL via that db link to a database server to obtain data. Some use ftp and act as a ftp clients, transferring processed data (XML format) to a server. Some call web services to extract data from 3rd party systems to reconcile the differences between local data sets and 3rd party data sets..
This is common between server and server. I do not see anything unusual in the database server using another server (and acting as a client when it does). Security between servers should not be a major problem (in fact, it can easily be done in a very robust way using trusted and encrypted communication).
The problem occurs when a client connects to the server and client and server roles are swapped at some stage (like the server "writing" a file directly to the client's filesystem). This very seldom makes any sense. And this is where authentication and security become an issue.
