APEX username and password

Hi,
I have ORACLE XE with APEX 3.1. I have had no problem with the setup until today when I accessed the image folder via http://127.0.0.1:8080/i now if I try and log in before I even get the home page with workspace, username and password I get a windows dialog box pop up saying: The server 127.0.0.1 at APEX requires a username and password.
any ideas what it is looking for?

Never mind. I restarted the database and it seemed to rectify itself.

Database App Development VM (Nov 2011) APEX username and password

Does anyone know the Workspace names, usernames and passwords for Instance Admin(Internal workspace), Developers and Users for the latest Database App Development VM (Nov 2011) available from OTN?
The VM forum is very quiet/unhelpful.
NOTE it is NOT
obe/obe/obe
or
oracle/oracle
or
admin/admin
thanks in advance
Paul

OK I followed Roel's suggestion and changed the ADMIN password using the apxchpwd.sql utility. There is no other way as there are no users defined in APEX except the instance administrator ADMIN
MAKE SURE you run V4.1 of apxchpwd.sql as V4.0.1 doesn't work and gives a security error. (Down load APEX 4.1 from OTN then extract apxchpwd.sql from the APEX directory.)
If you now try and connect to APEX and get an error in the browser (firefox) INTERNAL ERROR then shutdown the VM and restart it.
you should then be able to log onto the Instance Administrator as follows:
WS: Internal
UN: ADMIN
PW: <what you changed it to in the apxchpwd>
After you log on you will be asked to provide a new ADMIN password with all the naming restrictions enabled. (these can be turned off later, under manage instance...security settings. Under "Service Administrator Password Policy" change the radio button to "Use policy specified in Workspace Password Policy")
After logging into the workspace manager you will see that the OBE workspace has a status of TERMINATION_IN_PROGRESS5 .
If you want to retain this WS then create the OBE user as a workspace administrator and developer in the OBE workspace. If you set OBE/obe as the UN/PW
then you can log out of the Internal Workspace and log back in as the OBE developer and start application development.
Amazing how none of this is documented in the download! If you don't know much about APEX then you are locked out!

Changing DB username and Password for APEX

Hello Guys:
My APEX application is currently connected to the Main database, and now the business decided they want a user to be created with the main database only for APEX.
My main database is called ARRA, and user within the ARRA schema called ARRAAPEX was created given a diffrent username and password.
I see in the Administrative services I can only tell it to which schema to connect to, but where do I specify the username and password for the database user to be used by APEX?
Thank You For Your Help
Adel

Thank You for your reply Roel. What I meant to say is Logging to the ARRA schema using the username and password associated with ARRAAPEX would allow me to see the Date last edited field that has been added to the ARRAAPEX. ANd I am not able to see that at this moment becuase I am logging to to ARRA using the ARRA username and password.
When we setup a workspace and then associate a schema with that workspace, where do I specify the username and password that the workspace should use to access the schema? Or if a username and a password are not needed then how does the workspace access the schema?
Thank You
Adel

APEX is running. I'm at the login page. Now I can't remember my admin username and password

After hours upon hours of finding fixes to get Oracle Application Express running, I am now on the verge of finally getting the test environment setup. In the frustration, I have now forgotten my username and password that I had when I created the thing.
Help?
BTW, is my default workspace called "Internal?"

login with sys account over installation folder..
e.g C:\apex>sqlplus
connect:sys/xe@xe as sysdba
SQL:>@apxchpwd
You can reset ADMIN password(e.g Apex_4.2)

Username and Password for access apex 4.2

Hello,
I have installed apex 4.2.
Then i have execute java -jar apex.war to instlla listener
Then i have execute
http://localhost:7779/apex
at this point the server ask
Autentication Required
The server http://localhost:7779/apex requires a username and password
The server says XDB
??? Witch are le Username and Password ??
Thank You

I understand now. You are in the Embedded Web Server and can not access the Admin settings. In order to reset the password back to defaults, we will need to restore the Network defaults on the printer, then reconfigure the printer for your wireless network again. You can use the steps below to restore the network defaults on the printer;
Touch the little wrench (settings) icon you see in the top right hand corner of the printer touch screen.
Touch the Wireless Menu.
Navigate to Restore Network Defaults.
Once restored, go to the Wireless Setup Wizard in the Wireless Menu and reconfigure the settings.

What is the Username and Password of the localhost:8080 to login to Apex?

I just installed the Oracle Application Express to or above SQL of Oracle DB 11g Enterprise Edition. It said it was successfull installation. But when I login to Apex admin, using Firefox browser, (localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin), the firefox browser ask for my Username and Password. I used SYS and my password when I installed Oracle DB 11g, it didn't work.
Please help me solve this problem so that I continue learning Apex. Now I'm stuck.

Hi,
Does it ask XDB password?
If yes, did you unlock ANONYMOUS account?

When using a URL it always asks for a username and password

I’ve just started using the Windows version of OracleXE.exe with Apex3.1 and I would like to create a menu web-page holding a list of URL’s that can be configured by inserting records into a simple table. I am having problems with multiple authentication user-name and password. I can read the table and create a URL within a web-page swapping the text “#SESSION#” with the &Session.
But each time I open a new application within the same schema I get the login page (when that user has already connected with their password).
Test data:
create table x_url_table(url varchar2(256),display_text varchar2(32));
insert into x_url_table values ('http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=106:1:#SESSION#:::','query country details');
insert into x_url_table values ('http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=108:2:#SESSION#:::','simple select as a test ');
From the Application Builder page I choose:
"Create" -> "Create Application" -> “add Page" [I entered the table name x_url_table[and implementation set to classic]] -> “Next” [no tabs] -> “Next” [no for shared components] -> “Next” [Application Express for Authentication] -> “Next” -> “Create”
When I press the run-page-icon it displays the URL like below(if I click-it it does not open webpage):
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=106:1:#SESSION#:::     query country details
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=108:2:#SESSION#:::     simple
I then tried “edit-page”-> “edit-region” -> “region source” I swapped the SQL for this:
SELECT
replace(a.url ,'#SESSION#','&SESSION.') as url
, a.display_text
FROM x_url_table a
Plus I then added a link “edit-page”-> “edit-region”-> clicked the tab “Report Attributes”->clicked the “add column link”
Scroll down to “column link”
“Link Text” I set to #DISPLAY_TEXT#
“Target” choose the L.O.V option “URL”
“URL” I set to #URL#
Push apply button
Press the run-page icon it displays everything correctly (see below) but when I click-the-URL it asks me again for the login screen with a user/password request.
Can this be bypassed?
As, I am already connected to the schema using the same username and password!
How do I allow my current session to automatically log me in to a different page?
link      Url Display Text
query country details http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=106:1:1331572188999480:::     query country details
simple select as a test http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=108:2:1331572188999480:::     simple select as a test
so what do I need to do login just once!

ILM assistant XDB username and password not working

Hi All,
Hi I'm using ILM 1.3 with Oracle 11g on HP.
I am able to log-in to apex server but not ILM assistant.
http://dblxamd02.vxindia.veritas.com:8080/apex/apex_admin it works with admin/oracle.
But im not able to login to http://dblxamd02.vxindia.veritas.com:8080 when it asks for XDB username and password.
I tried to reset the password using apxxepwd.sql but not luck.
Did anybody observer this issue ? if so can somebody please reply me ASAP ?
Thanks in advance.

There are two wats to install the ILM toolkit:
1) Directly on the server where your instance is located. In this case you do not need to provide a TNS connection name. Therefore, you would execute the script as follows:
@ilma_install.sql pune
2) Remotely from a client. In this case you do need to provide a connection string to your remote database instance. Therefore, you would execute the script as follows:
@ilma_install.sql pune@11
in this scenario the connection details are derived from your TNSNAMES.ORA file. If you have multiple Oracle products installed you have multiple copies of this file and it can be difficult to track down which file is being used. To point to a specific TNSNAMES.ORA I normally set three parameters:
ORACLE_HOME - points to your 11g Client installation directory
PATH - point this to the Oracle home containing SQLPlus, usually this is ORACLE_HOME/bin
TNS_ADMIN = ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
then make sure the TNSNAMES.ORA contains a reference to your identifier "11". You can test the connection by using the TNSPING utility that is part of the 11g client installation. The format for your instance would be:
TNSPING 11
this will tell you if you can connect to your instance. If there are any issues check the connection via the Net Configuration Assistant, or you can edit the TNSNAMES.ORA file directly via Notepad.
Hope this helps

Ask for username and password for XDB when download files

Hi,
I have an application to upload/download files. While the user click on the file link for downloading files, a small window pops-up saying that "The server 127.0.0.1 at XDB requires a username and password.".
Can anyone shred some light ?
Thanks.
Edward

Edward:
Does this link work ? if it does then I think you may need to set up appropriate ACLs in XDB for the other IP address.

How can we disable " XDB Requires a username and password"?

Hello,
I've just performed an Apex 4 installation on top of a DB 11.2.0.2.
All is fine.
No problem fine with FF, IE and Safari, but with Chrome I always have a pop up saying " The server XXXX: port at XDB requires a username and password".
How can I disable that, or fix it definitively?
Thanks
Fred

Sure.
On my system Anonymous and XDB account were already unlocked and both used the same password.
I simply executed the PL/SQL block that you can find here: http://www.apexexplorer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/XDB-Password-Issue.pdf
I bounced the listener.
Hope that help
Regards,
Fred

Authentication window appears asking fo XDB username and password

Hi all,
Trying to access APEX on standby production server that I've not referenced for several months. when going to URL get pop-up in IE or Mozilla asking for username and password for XDB. Never seen this before - anyone got any ideas?
Also as an aside the HTTP server appears to be showing as down in Grid Control even though when I run "opmnctl startall" it says it has started it but an "opmnctl status" command reveals:
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
ias-component | process-type | pid | status
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
HTTP_Server | HTTP_Server | 0 | NONE
Not sure what the NONE measn............
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi,
According to your description, it seems like caused by permission problem. What's the type your problematic account? Administrator or standard? Is this problem just occures to this system?
In my opinion, it would be better to use Process Monitor to capture the trace of this problem.
Run Process Monitor, start capture, then start IE and access to a website. When this problem occures, stop capture.
Download Process Monitor:

If there is any problem using this tool, please feel free let me know.

I create a DAD without username and password.

Maybe the Oracle Application Express (APEX) guys know more about it ..

Retrieving admin username and password

Hello:
Can someone tell me how I can retrieve the username and password for the admin URL? The DBA is gone and he didn't document any of this info.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can follow the steps here to change the password for the admin account ( the user name is ADMIN ):
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/install.310/e10496/db_install.htm#CIHBHAFJ
It basically just involves running the @apxchpwd.sql script from the apex install directory ( in oracle home ).
best,
john

Reporting Services username and password prompting

We have several branch office locations and one reporting services server. All of the branch office locations can access the reporting services server, but we have one location for the passed week, each time they make a connection to this server, it prompts
them for a username and password and will not allow them to connect even if the correct username and password is correct.
I have tried adding the server to the IE intranet/trusted site list. Set IE security on all zones to automatically logon with current username and password.
What is strange is that this is the only branch office site that is having this issue. It is almost like kerberos is broken for this site location only.
DOes anyone has any suggestions what could be causing this problem for all computers in this one location. Nothing has changed on their local servers nor have we pushed any updates to the machines.

Hi bubba1984,
As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by Kerberos authentication. Kerberos is an authentication protocol that allows clients that create authentication tokens to associate a specific destination to that token. In the failure case, there is
a mismatch between the destination specified in the token and the report server process configuration. Due to this mismatch, the underlying Kerberos authentication scheme supported by Windows prevents report server from authenticating the user.
To fix this issue, please try to remove RSWindowsNegotiate and ensure RSWindowsNTLM is specified in the rsreportserver.config file. For more details, please take the following article as reference:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/lukaszp/archive/2008/03/26/solving-the-reporting-services-login-issue-in-the-february-ctp-of-sql-server-2008.aspx
Hope this helps.
