Automatic login in 3.0.9

Hi,
in 3.0.7. I could let user X automatically login as enduser Y calling wwptl_login.login_url passing ssousername / password, so user X could check his work as content manager whether he had published his content to the correct enduser groups.
Now in portal 30.9.8.3.A using the same coe I get "service temporarily unavailable errors. Though if I call the procedure as public user it works fine.
Can anyone help how I can offer the above mentioned functionality ( i.e. logout as user X, login as user Y programmatically) in 3.0.9.?
thanks

Carmen,
Please post this message to the general Portal forum.
Thanks,
Jerry

How can we re-enable automatic login?

My husband likes to have automatic login, and has always used it on his laptop. The computer belongs to his employer; yesterday, it wouldn't accept his login at all, and when he got it back from IT an hour later, there was a new account on it (the IT's, I guess, since it was named "Maintenance"), and both it and his own account were now called "admin, managed". The Guest Account was changed to "disabled". I have an admin account on that computer too, which I never use except to help him out, and it was unchanged. I was able to use this to turn off the "managed" part by turning off the Parental Controls checkbox on his account. But logging back into his account, now a simple "admin", did not allow me to re-enable the automatic login. (I couldn't do it from my own account, either.)
Present condition: (On a Macbook Pro, running OS 10.6.8).
1. In System Preferences, in the Security Pane (after clicking the lock and entering the password), the first checkbox under "For all accounts on this computer:" is the one to "Disable automatic login". This box is checked AND GRAYED OUT. It cannot be changed. The 4 boxes under that are all live and checked (to require a password to unlock each pane, to log out after inactivity, to use secure virtual memory, and to automatically update the safe downloads list).
2. In the Accounts Pane, clicking on Login Options (with the lock opened), the top line, "Automatic login:" is set to "off", and GRAYED OUT. It too cannot be changed. Other options are also grayed out: can't show the Restart etc. buttons, or show the fast user switching menu.
This is true on our home network, so it isn't something enforced by the employer's network, at least, not directly.
Filevault isn't on, by the way, and never has been.
Is this a condition set by a terminal command by IT? If so, how do we bypass it? It's more of a nuisance this way than anything serious, but an adnimistrator account ought to be able to access all the options, right? (And we have no idea why he couldn't log in in the first place, which started this whole mess.) All suggestions will be welcome.
Susan K

Forgive what may be a dumb question on my part, but did you click the lock icon at the lower-left of the Accounts pane to unlock it? You can't change those settings until the pane is unlocked, which you should be able to do if you have adminstrator privileges unless his company has in some way locked off those settings, something which may well be company policy.
Hope this helps.

How can I shut off the automatic login when I turn on my MacBook Pro?

Ever since I updated to Yosemite I have been forced to enter my password whenever I turn on my MacBook Pro. I went to System Preferences/Users & Groups and see that the automatic login option is set to off, but it is shaded and I can't use the dropdown menu, even though I've unlocked it.
Is this a common issue? Am I just going to have to get used to signing in every time? I'm the only one who uses it, and it's a little annoying.
I've tried searching for help in the discussions and also on google, but I'm not finding any answers.
Help, please!

Did you turn on FileVault when you upgraded to Yosemite? If it is on then a login password is required (sort of obviously). You can tell whether it is on by going to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Security & Privacy and click FileVault at the top and see if the words "Turn off FileVault" are in the button. I'm the only one who uses my Mac also, but the remote possibility of it being stolen makes it worth it to me to have FileVault turned on and a password required.

How to automatically login to apex and run a specific page / application

Hi all.
I'd like to know if there is a way of automatically login to apex and run a specific page / application. I mean, invoke browser and pass the necessary information to login (not public user) and run a specific application( ina secure way if possible).
Thanks in advance ...!

Hi,
Well, as a very crude test you can set your authentication scheme to be Application Express Authenticationand define some users in Apex. Then create a before header login process on the login page (101) to automatically logon containing:
apex_authentication.login(
p_username => :P101_USERNAME,
p_password => :P101_PASSWORD );
:P101_PASSWORD := NULL;conditional on P101_PASSWORD is not null.
Then you can login by specifying your username and password in the URL e.g.
f?p=YOURAPP:LOGIN:::::P101_USERNAME,P101_PASSWORD:username,password

Call BEX-Query from VBA with BEX-automatic login?

Hi,
I'm trying to call a query from VBA. I have two problems/questions:
1. Automatic login?
I want to do an automatic login. I found this peace of code here, but I get an error:
Public Function LogonToYourBW()
' create Logon & RFC-Handle
logonToBW = False clear connect Flag the flag can be used to find out if connected or not
    'load SAP functionality by opening BEX file ( use your installation path)
        Workbooks.Open (c:\sappc\bw\sapbex.xla)
    With Run("sapbex.xla!sapbexGetConnection") call the connection
       ' Set the params for Auto logon
       .client = YOUR CLIENT NO
       .user = YOUR BW USER
       .Password = YOUR BW PWD I recommend to create a dummy reporting user for this task
       .Language = YOUR LANGUAGE YOU LIKE TO USE FOR QUERY DISPLAY ( i.E. EN)
       .SystemNumber = YOUR SYSTEM NO
       .ApplicationServer = YOUR SERVER Name OR IP-ADDRESS
       .UseSAPLOgonIni = FALSE 'important for automatic connection
       .logon 0, True This will provide a dialog to appear
        If .IsConnected <> 1 Then
            .logon 0, False
            If .IsConnected <> 1 Then Exit Function
        Else
            Set g_oFunction = CreateObject("SAP.Functions")
            Set g_oFunction.Connection = g_oConnection
        End If
    End With
    Run "sapbex.xla!sapbexinitConnection" this will enable the connection you just created
    logonToBW = True
End Function
The error is by this row:
Set g_oFunction.Connection = g_oConnection
Object is needed! How is the g_oConnection-object defined?
2. How can I pass values for the parameters from VBA?
If I open the query usually from SAP-BEX-Toolbar, after selecting the query, I get a parameter mask, where I must put in a value. How can I this automatize from VBA? Has anybody a short samplecode for that?
Thank you for your help

Peter and others:
What I really want to do is write a stand-alone application that I can run from windows scheduler that queries our BW for sales data for certain items (in a tabular form) and pulls that data into a VB recordset, or a .NET dataset so that I can insert the rows into another database (SQL Server, or Access) I already know how to do all the data movement to/from datasets and databases I just cannot figure out how to programmatically grab this sales data from BW our company has workbooks already set up that aggregate WW sales information by region (IE, there is a separate workbook for each region of the world) I can manually go into the Excel interface, tell it which items to pull the sales info for, and it dumps the data into the worksheet (organized by customer, and then by cat #)
So, what Id like to do is write an app that will pull data every week or so from the BW (from each regions sales invoice detail workbook), and insert it into another database that we use for reporting other, non-sales, data.
Thoughts on this ? Is there another, non-BEx method that is better ?
thanks !!

Automatic login in mavericks not working. I still have to enter user name and password

I upgraded the original Hard Drive to SSD drive. After the upgrade, I can no longer automatically log in. I now have to enter my user name and password. I tried resetting automatic login in Users and Groups but it doesn't work in Mavericks.

Hello,
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?
How about these?

Can't disable automatic login (wifi) in Mt. Lion 10.8.4

Dear all, why i can't disable automatic login in Mt. Lion 10.8.4??
i'm using a MBP 2.4Ghz/Intel core i5 / late 2011 model, running 10.8.4
each time i turn the wifi on and select the name of network, it will automatically login without asking my password, (I just want it ask me for password every time coz i don't want the password stay on the computer!)
and i had did the following already but the nightmare still go on, please kindly let me know if the issue can be fix? thanks a lot!!!
1. network panel : click advance and remove all network names in the window, and unchecked the box "Remember networks this computer has joined".
2. Security Panel : selected "Disable automatic login"
3. Users & Groups panel : Automatic login : selected "off"
4.inside the Library / Preferences folder : "com.apple.loginwindow.plist", "com.apple.airport.preferences.plist" & " NetworkInterfaces.plist" all are deleted
thanks again!!!

Open Keychain Access and locate the entry for the network logon, select the entry and press the Delete key. That will remove the password from your Keychain and the system will have to request your password to log onto the network. Note: keychain entries are securely encrypted so even if someone has access to your computer, it would be highly unlikely they would be able to retrieve the network password.

For some reason my iMac now goes straight to the login screen. I tried to change this in Preferences but Automatic Login isn't highlighted, so I'm unable change it from Off to On. Help please.

As you can see Off at the top of the pic is faint and I cannot find a way of getting to it to change it to On. If can change it to 'On' I presume I won't get the login screen/page after turning on the Mac??

So this was set to Automatic login and then it changed, correct?
What other changes did you make to the system, filevault, workgroup manager, something else?
If the lock is unlocked as you say then something else must have have changed to prevent this setting from being changed. Any information you can supply might lead to a solution.

Windows 7 automatic login to AD and Edir

Any one have clear instructions on how to accomplish automatic login to a windows AD domain and edirectory?
Using Novell Client 2 Sp3 for windows 7 (IR6). Novell is the primary login.
Goal is to enable the automatic login to both as user "install" .. sysprep the image.. deploy the image so it automatically logs in as the user. Installs associated default zenworks bundles, with the last bundle removing the automatic login registry keys.. then reboot and be ready for the user to login to.
used to use autolog.exe from Tommy for XP, which I understand doesn't work with windows 7.

Lol apparently I just need to talk myself through this process :P
Seems to be working at the moment. Here's what I did. Computer is joined to AD domain and has Novell Client installed/primary logon. I haven't tried this with a sysprep'd image yet, but hoping the sysprep process doesn't change any of these keys:
HKLM\Software\Novell\Login
REG_SZ AutoAdminLogon = 1
REG_SZ DefaultLocationProfile = Default
REG_SZ DefaultUserName = install (or whatever username you intend to use)
REG_SZ DefaultPassword = password (or whatever password associated with above username)
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
REG_SZ AutoAdminLogon = 1
REG_SZ DefaultDomainName = yourdomainname
REG_SZ DefaultUserName = install (or whatever username)
REG_SZ DefaultPassword = install (or whatever password associated with above username)
REG_DWORD DisableCAD = 1 (disable the Ctrl+Alt+Del prompt)

Automatic login to wireless problem

We have several computers at home, all connected to the internet through a wireless router hooked up to our main PC. Then there is my laptop, my old iMac, and my son's PC. Everything was working fine ... when I'd start my PowerBook G4, it would automatically detect our wireless network and connect my laptop to the network.
However, we had our son hook up his Playstation3 to the router via an ethernet cable. This way would could take away the ethernet cable to limit his playing time and encourage him to do his homework. The Playstation3 also "hijacks" the IP address, basically blocking anyone else in the house from using the internet.
Well, my son found the WEP password for the wireless, and decided to put it on his Playstation3 so he could play online whenever we weren't looking. Well, when we found out he had pinched the WEP password, we reset the it on the wireless Linksys router, and I went into my Keychain and changed the WEP key for the wireless network on my PowerBook. Problem solved, right?
Well, now when I start up my G4 Powerbook, it detects our home wireless network but no longer automatically signs in to the network. Additionally, when I try to select our wireless network from the AirPort pull-down menu from the Finder window menu bar, it says that an error occurred and it can not connect. Hitting the "Try Again" button is futile. I have to go into Internet Connect, select "Other" from the available wireless networks, then pick our home wireless network from the list. I then have to type in that annoying 26 digit WEP 128-bit Hexidecimal security key! Only then do I get the connection to our wireless. Additionally, I have to do this EVERY SINGLE TIME I boot my Powerbook -- it doesn't seem to want to remember the password, even though it is stored in the keychain.
This problem is very frustrating! Why won't my Powerbook automatically login to our network?

Good news!
Yep, that was the WEP I was talking about, 104/128bit/26Hex.
Now it takes just 3 seconds to extract a 104-bit WEP key from intercepted data using a 1.7GHz Pentium M processor...

[solved] How to revert Automatic login to virtual console?

Long, long time ago (maybe 3 years back), I set up automatic login for my user. Now, I am trying to revert it so that the console asks me for username (unless it is avoidable) and password upon login.
So I though "Easy! I'll just go here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/au … al_console and delete the file mentioned there:
/etc/systemd/system/[email protected]/autologin.conf
But the file is not present on my system. Instead, I have this:

Perhaps "grep autologin -R /etc /usr/lib" would point you to something.
-edit-
Maybe grep for "getty", as apparently "-a" is equivalent to "--autologin".
-edit-
Okay. Remove "-a" in the file you pasted.
-edit-
You could also remove the symlink and the file it points to and create there a symlink to the file coming with systemd, as your file differs somewhat from what I have.
ls -l /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/[email protected]
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Jun 21 2012 /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/[email protected] -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]

Unable to change automatic login

I run a small computer lab with iMacs (intel). Each computer has at least two accounts -- one of which has admin privileges. When a computer starts up, I want it to login directly to a user account and bypass the login window. For some reason even though I login with the admin account, in the Accounts preferences pane->Login Options the "Automatic Login" drop down menu is gray and I am unable to choose a user. Any ideas?
to summarize, here's what I'm doing:
1) login to an admin account
2) choose accounts pref pane->login option
3) unlock the pane
4) "Automatic Login" is gray. I am unable to choose or see any possible selections.

How did you reinstall? A&I, saving user and network data? If so, then the corruption that existed carried over to the restored installation. Try an Erase & Install, recreating the two accounts.

Automatic Login Trouble and Short Name Trouble

Hello everyone,
I just got a fresh install of Leopard going on my Macbook (wiped the hard drive during installation instead of just upgrading the OS), but I'm running into a brick wall (two of them, actually).
First off, for some reason, my Macbook refuses to automatically login. I know this is a good thing in terms of security, but I would really like it to login automatically to save time.
I also made an error in spelling for my computer's home short name, so it is now sitting here with a capitalization problem. I tried to to change the name through Advanced Options in the Accounts section of the System Preferences, but for some reason, the capitalization won't change. I know that's a pretty minor problem, but I'd still like to fix it.
Any help that could be sent my way would be deeply appreciated.
Thank you,
Arcturus

If the short name is a problem, reinstall. Changing this name is a nightmare, usually.
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/16620
This will help if you want to try it, but it might fail, or screw things up.
Trashing "com.apple.loginwindow.plist", you may cure the login problem. It's in your User/Library/Preference folder.
Did you Migrate anything? If yes, re-migrate from your backup (You have one, right?).

TS3660 How To Disable Automatic Login

How To Disable Automatic Login

It is your only option if you want to get rid of that other user account. It seems the system is Hard Set to boot to that account. How and why I have not Idea but the first thing you should of done was Restoring it to the Original OS, if it was not Mt Lion to begin with, in doing so getting rid of all other accounts and files from that other account.
Time to Bit the Bullet and Erase the drive completely and reinstall the original shipping version of OS X on that system.

Reinstalling the OS would be too extreme. I already have many programs installed, and I tuned a lot of params. Data migration is another pain.
