Apps 11i, Discoverer, and Security
Just an FYI for those out who are having problems picking up Apps Security when trying to implement Oracle Discoverer on top of Apps 11i. We have struggled over the past six weeks to have Discoverer pick up Apps Security and have finally found a combination that works. If anyone else is having a similar problem and would like the details of our configuration, please e-mail me at [email protected]
Hi,
If you have an issue with Discoverer and security, your best option is to post a question in the Discoverer forum (Discoverer

hi guys really need help.
I cant install non apple approved programs cos the (see below);
"Open System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General, and choose "Anywhere" under "Allow applications downloaded from"
this function is stuck..... I cant unlock it even after inputting the correcct Admin password.....
Please advise
Thanks so much!!!Deloren19 wrote:

Hi,
I don't understand how Disco works with existing Apps 11i responsibilities to control access
to the business data.
When you create a business area and then assign it to Apps responsibility, how do you know that
the responsibility can access the tables of the business area?
thanks
brhHi
The responsibility can access the business area because the Discoverer administrator said so.
Working in Apps mode is straight-forward. You install Discoverer into Apps mode using a database account, making sure you check the little box to install into Apps mode. Having created the EUL you make sure your connection settings are right by using Tools | Options | Connections.
You have to make sure that you have defined whether you will be connecting to Apps mode EULs only or a combination of Apps mode and standard mode. You therefore check either Connect to application EULs or Connect to both standard and application EULs. After this you need to make sure there are valid enties for the Gateway User ID and Foundation Name.
The standard entrie for these are:
Gateway User ID: applsyspub/pub
Foundation Name: apps
Next you grant admin rights to an Apps user - typically SYSADMIN. You the logout as the EUL owner and log in as the Apps user, making sure to check the little box that says you are connecting to Apps.
From here on you administer the EUL using the Apps account ONLY. You create EULs and assign access to those EULs using this account. The reason that most folks use the SYSADMIN account is because it can access the responsibilities and other users for ensuring access is correct.
I have a white paper on my website that will walk you through installing an Apps mode EUL. You might find it to be if interest and you will find it here: http://learndiscoverer.com/downloads/downloads.htm

Install instructions for Search Modeler and integrating with Apps 11i
Below are all the steps I took for creating integrating Search Modeler with an Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 ATG RUP 7 instance called ERNIE.
Much thanks to Oracle Support ( Rajesh Ghosh, Vikas Soolapani and Roger Ford), as this simply wouldn't have been possible without them.
There are a few things in this document that may not be pertinent to your environment if you're doing this. I've made attempts to clarify those possibly optional sections in the documentation.
I've broken the document down into the following multiple parts
o Setting up a new RedHat 4.8 x86 server called ausSEARCHdev (The server is in AUStin, TX, is dedicated to SEARCH, and is for our DEV environment)
o SES (Secure Enterprise Search 10.1.8.2 install
o SES 10.1.8.4 patchset install
o SES CPU patch apply
o Standalone OC4J and ADF installation
o Search Modeler installation and configuration
o Configure ERNIE Apps instance to be on valid self-signed SSL certificate
o Import ERNIE SSL certificate into SES and Search Modeler
using aussearchdev initially
rh4 x86, default oracle build
** htop and collectl are open source free performance monitoring packages we utilize**

Next need to install various oracle needed RPMs.
cd /mnt/rpms/rh40_upd8/RedHat/RPMS/
rpm -ivh perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-1.el4.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh libaio-devel-0.3.105-2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh sysstat-5.0.5-25.el4.i386.rpm

service collectl restart

ADF - http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/jdev/htdocs/adfinstaller10133.html
OC4J install
First you need to have Java 1.5 on the machine. Latest is 1.5.0_22. Package is in /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES
as root on aussearchdev
cd /usr/local
cp /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin .
chmod 700 jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin
./jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin
yes
install OC4J just by copying over the directory
as oracle on aussearchdev
mkdir -p /d01/oracle/oc4j
cd /d01/oracle/oc4j
cp -r /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/oc4j/* .

change the following
OracleHome = /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/adf
DesHome = /d01/oracle/oc4j/
type = OC4J
as root
cd /usr/bin
rm java
(yes)
ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_22/bin/java

So, creating a self signed SSL certificate for ERNIE EBS instance (this will not work if you use an SSL certificate for another server like say, PROD)
doing this on ausernieapp
openssl genrsa -des3 -out ausernieapp.key 1024
PEM key is ausernieapp
openssl req -new -key ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.csr
PEM key is ausernieapp
Country US
State Texas
Locality Austin
Organization Name Corporation
Organizational Unit Name Information Technology
Common Name ausernieapp.domainname.com
Email address [email protected]
No challenge password
No optional company name
Now let's remove the passphrase from the key
cp ausernieapp.key ausernieapp.key.orig
openssl rsa -in ausernieapp.key.orig -out ausernieapp.key
Now let's generate a self-signed certificate
openssl x509 -req -days 1000 -in ausernieapp.csr -signkey ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.crt
Install the private key and certificate
cd $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/ssl.crt
cp server.crt server.crt.backup.03102010
chown applmgr:applmgr server.crt.backup.03102010

you can modify the logLevel from the default of 4 to 2 to get better debug data. No services need to be restarted, it will become active with the next crawl.
While talking with Oracle, they mentioned the following patches
The patches identified 8321527 and 7586924 are SES patches to help with indexing
They also identified patch 9103851 which is an apps patch dealing with responsibilities <-- This is not yet available

./searchctl startallBelow are all the steps I took for creating integrating Search Modeler with an Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 ATG RUP 7 instance called ERNIE.
Much thanks to Oracle Support ( Rajesh Ghosh, Vikas Soolapani and Roger Ford), as this simply wouldn't have been possible without them.
There are a few things in this document that may not be pertinent to your environment if you're doing this. I've made attempts to clarify those possibly optional sections in the documentation.
I've broken the document down into the following multiple parts
o Setting up a new RedHat 4.8 x86 server called ausSEARCHdev (The server is in AUStin, TX, is dedicated to SEARCH, and is for our DEV environment)
o SES (Secure Enterprise Search 10.1.8.2 install
o SES 10.1.8.4 patchset install
o SES CPU patch apply
o Standalone OC4J and ADF installation
o Search Modeler installation and configuration
o Configure ERNIE Apps instance to be on valid self-signed SSL certificate
o Import ERNIE SSL certificate into SES and Search Modeler
using aussearchdev initially
rh4 x86, default oracle build
** htop and collectl are open source free performance monitoring packages we utilize**
--start

**We still need to install the necessary rpms so that collectl logs are compressed
--end

** /mnt/rpms is a network dumpspot we use to hold ISOs for OS software such as Redhat Linux
mkdir /mnt/oraclebackup

add the following to /etc/fstab
XXXXXXX:/patches/oraclebackup /mnt/oraclebackup nfs defaults,hard,nolock 0 0
XXXXXXX:/esxpress/nfs /mnt/rpms nfs rw,addr=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 0 0

Next need to install various oracle needed RPMs.
cd /mnt/rpms/rh40_upd8/RedHat/RPMS/
rpm -ivh perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-1.el4.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh libaio-devel-0.3.105-2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh sysstat-5.0.5-25.el4.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh unixODBC-devel-2.2.11-1.RHEL4.1.i386.rpm
service collectl restart

we're going to go with the standalone OC4j 10.1.3.3 and Oracle ADF 10.1.3.3 method
The URLs for these products are
http://blogs.oracle.com/ebssearch/2009/10/available_now_oracle_search_modeler_11_for_oracle_e-business_suite_11i.html
and specifically
OC4J - http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/oc4j/101330/oc4j_extended_101330.zip
ADF - http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/jdev/htdocs/adfinstaller10133.html
OC4J install
First you need to have Java 1.5 on the machine. Latest is 1.5.0_22. Package is in /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES
as root on aussearchdev
cd /usr/local
cp /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin .
chmod 700 jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin
./jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-i586.bin
yes
install OC4J just by copying over the directory
as oracle on aussearchdev
mkdir -p /d01/oracle/oc4j
cd /d01/oracle/oc4j
cp -r /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/oc4j/* .
ADF install
vi /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/adf/adfinstaller.properties
change the following
OracleHome = /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/adf
DesHome = /d01/oracle/oc4j/
type = OC4J
as root
cd /usr/bin
rm java
(yes)
ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_22/bin/java
su - oracle
java -version should now return 1.5.0_22
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.5.0_22
cd /mnt/oraclebackup/deathstar_patches/SES/adf
java -jar runinstaller.jar -version
returns The version for the ADF libraries being installed is 10.1.3.41.57 - yes, that is apparently 10.1.3.3.

So, creating a self signed SSL certificate for ERNIE EBS instance (this will not work if you use an SSL certificate for another server like say, PROD)
doing this on ausernieapp
openssl genrsa -des3 -out ausernieapp.key 1024
PEM key is ausernieapp
openssl req -new -key ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.csr
PEM key is ausernieapp
Country US
State Texas
Locality Austin
Organization Name Corporation
Organizational Unit Name Information Technology
Common Name ausernieapp.domainname.com
Email address [email protected]
No challenge password
No optional company name
Now let's remove the passphrase from the key
cp ausernieapp.key ausernieapp.key.orig
openssl rsa -in ausernieapp.key.orig -out ausernieapp.key
Now let's generate a self-signed certificate
openssl x509 -req -days 1000 -in ausernieapp.csr -signkey ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.crt
Install the private key and certificate
cd $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/ssl.crt

you can modify the logLevel from the default of 4 to 2 to get better debug data. No services need to be restarted, it will become active with the next crawl.
While talking with Oracle, they mentioned the following patches
The patches identified 8321527 and 7586924 are SES patches to help with indexing

thanking in advance
regards
oracle userHi,
regarding adding (Add (C:\ABC) to FORMS60_PATH in the registry) could you please explain
compilation is by f60gen @ (is this right?)Correct, the syntax of using f60gen is explained in (Note: 130686.1 - How to Generate Form, Library and Menu for Oracle Applications).
The place where i am working has apps installed in IBM AIX server .. so how do i access Apps

Discoverer 10g installed with Ora Apps 11i on same box
I've worked through the "coexistence restrictions" for Discoverer 10g (9.0.4) and 9iR1 (1.0.2.2.x) which states:
"The following instances of Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) and Oracle9i Application Server Release 1 (1.0.2.2.x) can coexist on the same computer only after Oracle9iAS Discoverer has been shutdown in the Oracle9iAS Release 1 (1.0.2.2.x) Oracle home:
1.0.2.2.x Standard Edition and 9.0.4 Business Intelligence and Forms
1.0.2.2.x Enterprise Edition and 9.0.4 Business Intelligence and Forms
1.0.2.2.x Standard Edition and 9.0.4 Business Intelligence and Forms without OracleAS Infrastructure 10g
1.0.2.2.x Enterprise Edition and 9.0.4 Business Intelligence and Forms without OracleAS Infrastructure 10g"
Does this imply that I can install 11i on a box, permanently shut down Discoverer and then ON THE SAME BOX install 10g Infrastructure and Midtier including Discoverer 10g?
Has anyone worked through this installation and made it work?
ThanksThis IS possible and have now done it with assist from Oracle tech support.
1. Install 64-bit 10.2.0.1 Databse into OraDb_home.
2. Install 32-bit 10.2.0.1 Client (needs Windows ODBC extensions) into OraClient_home.
3. Apply patch 5500954 for 64-bit - this is a Critical Bug patch 8 for 64-bit.
4. Apply patch 5337014 for 32-bit - this is a patchset to upgrade the Client to 10.0.2.0.3.
5. Contrary to what Oracle note 334528.1 says (which is to patch the 64-bit Server, you must patch/upgrade the 32-bit client as well (otherwise, it still fails).
Also, DataDirect's Connect Ver 5.2 ODBC Oracle "wire-driver" (32-bit version) will work without installing the OraClient at all.

Workbook with Discoverer Viewer in Apps 11i?
With the help of (Doc ID: 278095.1) I was able to link Discoverer workbooks in Apps 11i. But all of my workbooks open with Discoverer Plus.
How do I open some of the workbook with Discoverer Viewer in Apps 11i?
I can open all my workbook directly with Discoverer Viewer without Apps 11i config.
Current Function Settings (in 11i) are:
Type: SSWA plsql function
HTML Call: OracleOASIS.RunDiscoverer
Thanks in advance for your help,Hi,
Your workbooks are openned with viewer or plus depending on the profile 'ICX: Discoverer use Viewer'. You can override this by setting the viewer parameter on the call to OracleOASIS.RunDiscover. In the config of the Apps function that call OracleOASIS.RunDiscover, on the form tab add &VIEWER=Y or &VIEWER=N onto the end of the parameters. e.g workbook=myworkbook¶meters=param1~value1&viewer=Y
Hope that helps,

I can't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions.
1 Reply Latest reply : by alexbird I have I money in my apple I'd and when tried to purchase Apps asking me two security question but I am not remember the answer so I need your helpHello there, Subhi.sa.
Just wanted to second Niel's recommendation. Additionally this Knowledge Base article also provides some steps you can take yourself if you don't remember your security questions:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email addresssign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID passwordcontact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
Thanks for reaching out to us on the Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Stupid iPad demands security check questions after confirming install of new app? Why and can I shut that of somehow my password should be enough!
Judging by the number of successful password hack attempts on internet accounts of all types, clearly password security alone is not enough to verify you are the account holder to a dumb computer.
I'm sure you'd be complaining even more about "stupid iPad" if it allowed anyone who obtained your password easy access without any kind of backup security checks, and spend money on your iTunes / App Store account.
Apple are actively increasing the security of people's valuable iTunes accounts, not decreasing it. Why would you want to make it easier for someone to steal from you and take over your online accounts? -
