Beginner question about granting access rights

Hi, am a total beginner, just a very simple question. I have created a number of tables with my admin account that I would like user accounts to be able to see (they should only be allowed to see these few tables)
I then created a user account called EDWARD with just the basic connect access right (I don't want them to be able to create/delete tables etc, just to be able to query the tables I have created above and to add rows to these tables)
Google searching has lead me to the grant statement, so I tried this from the admin account:
grant select, update, insert on CUSTOMERS to EDWARD;
This statement executes correctly but when I log in the EDWARD account I cannot do any of these things, instead I get the error: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
Any ideas?
Thanks

>>Would it be better to create a separate account called 'ADMIN' perhaps that I use for
my application admin and then grant them appropriate access to confidential tables
rather than logging them in as the SYSTEM?
Yes, this is what I would advise, since SYSTEM (like SYS and several others...) is not user like other, it's better do not work and create object under this one. Keep it for Oracle administration usage only, not for application administration, create your own schema for this.

    In Design CS 5.5 --- Question about Leader Dots ("RIGHT TAB")
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4kiyByY4A0
    Can anyone help???

    Apply a Character style to the tab character—don't try and do it from the Paragraph style. You can stay with a period as the leader and manipulate the size and spread of the dots via the character style. So here I've applied the Leader character style to the tab or the right indent tab and changed the point size and tracking of the style to make a leader with smaller dots and more spacing:

  • Beginner Question: SA520 Admin access through WAN port

    Dear all,
    I've a beginner question regarding my brand new SA520: How can I configure the box so that I'm able to access the admin GUI not only through the LAN ports but also from the WAN ports?
    I tried already to allow inbound traffic to the firewall's internal IP address (not sure if done right, so) and granted the admin user access profile from WAN and LAN: I can access the box from the LAN but not from the WAN. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Eric
    PS: Yupp, I know that it's not a good idea to expose a FW admin GUI to the WAN - but this is only a lab environment

    Go to Administration -> Users.
    click on the 'Edit User Policies' 'Login' button.  It's there you can enable WAN access.

  • A very simple question on granting access.

    Hi All,
    I created a very low-level user in portal. I have added the Oracle built-in Favorites portlet to the user?s page. But when the user logs in, she still can't see the Favorites portlet. I usually go to the Navigator, Applications, and the Application and would grant the user access to the Application to the portlet I want to add. This works fine except you can't do for the Oracle built-in Favorites portlet. My question is how do I grant access to the Favorites portlet for a user. I'm sure it is something very easy that I'm missing.
    Many Thanks,
    Tom

    Never mind this question, because I'm an idiot. I had a different page defaulting then I thought. Please disregard this question, and sorry for wasting the forum's space.

  • Question about Database Access

    Hello,
    I have one question regarding database access from Java.
    What are the other ways of connecting to database other than JDBC? This was one of the question I been asked by the interviewer. He says JDBC connection can slow down the perfomance when it comes large number of transactions?
    Any insight or help will be very useful.
    Thanks

    He may have been referring to available "persistance managers" like Hibernate or the mechanisms build into EJB containers. However, as far as I know, they all use JDBC, and any speed-up is due to caching of data as objects.

  • Query about granting access from another PC to my application (PC)

    Hi everyone,
    I have developed an application on APEX using the following background.
    1. Windows XP
    2. Oracle Database 11g
    3. Application Express 3.0.1.00.08.
    4. The architecture I installed was the embedded PL/SQL gateway one, which "provides the Oracle database with a Web server and also the necessary infrastructure to create dynamic applications. The embedded PL/SQL gateway runs in the XML DB HTTP server in the Oracle database and includes the core features of mod_plsql, but does not require the Oracle HTTP Server powered by Apache. Inclusion of the embedded PL/SQL gateway simplifies the architecture and eliminates the middle tier entirely"
    I have already configured or at least think so reviewing the post installation tasks:

  • Beginner question about CommandListener

    Hi all! I am programming my first cell phone application. Here´s my problem: I have a sequence of menus and all of them use CommandListener to figure out what should be done next. I will put part of my code
    public class Planilha extends MIDlet implements CommandListener {
    private List mList, mListSec, mListMes;
    Form formPerfil,formPagto,fromVis;
    //Here I have declared Commands, etc
    /Construtor
    public Planilha(){
              //THIS IS MY MAIN PANEL. FROM HERE, I HAVE 3 PATHS(3 ANOTHER PANELS)
              mList = new List("Expenses", List.IMPLICIT, stringElements, imageElements);//stringElements and imageElements are initialized
            //Commands are initialized
            mList.addCommand(cFirst);
            mList.addCommand(cSec);
            mList.addCommand(cThird);
           mList.setCommandListener(this);
           //THIS IS ONE OPTION THAT CAN BE ACTIVATED AFTER PANEL mList
           formPerfil = new Form("Budget");
            //Commands are initilized
                formPerfil.addCommand(cBack);
         formPerfil.addCommand(cSave);
         formPerfil.setCommandListener(this);
           //THIS IS A SECOND OPTION THAT CAN BE ACTIVATED AFTER PANEL mList
           mListSec = new List("Expenses", List.IMPLICIT, stringElements1, imageElements1);
           mListSec.addCommand(cBack);
           mListSec.addCommand(cExpense);
           mListSec.setCommandListener(this);
           //STILL GOT A THIRD OPTION BUT I WILL LEFT IT OUT
    public void startApp() {
        Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(mList);
    //HERE IS MY PROBLEM. ONLY FIRST OPTION IS BEING REACHED
    public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable s) {
        if (c == cFirst || c == List.SELECT_COMMAND) {
          //HERE I CALL THE FIRST POSSIBLE PATH
             Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(formPerfil);
        else if(c == cSec){
             //HERE I CALL THE SECOND OPTION
             Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(mListSec);
        else if(c == cThird){
             //A THIRD OPTION FROM PANEL mList
            Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(mListMes);
        else if(c == cExpense){
        //HERE A COMMAND COMMING FROM THE SECOND PANEL. ITS NEVER CALLED
         //ANOTHER COMMAND THAT DOES NOT COME FROM MAIN PANEL (mList)
        //IS THIS CORRECT TO PUT THIS COMMAND IN THE SAME COMMAND LISTENER?
        else if(c == cSave){ }So my problem is: even if I choose option 2 or 3 from mList, only the first option is selected. In other words, only formPerfil is being called.
    My second question is that I have some command listeners on the other panels but mList. Is this correct to add in the same method CommandAction? For example, I added "cSave" and "cExpense". Is there any problem with it?
    Thx in advance

Is there any problem with it?I can't point exactly but the way how you "mix" select command with cFirst, cSec and cThird just doesn't feel right.
    To handle selection in implicit list, neither of added commands is necessary. It is sufficient to just detect select command in the list and then use [getSelectedIndex() method|http://java.sun.com/javame/reference/apis/jsr118/javax/microedition/lcdui/List.html#getSelectedIndex()|javadoc] to figure which item was selected.
    Another thing that looks suspicious is that commandAction does not check the displayable parameter ('s'). Say, without checking this paramenter, one will never know if SELECT_COMMAND comes from mList or mListSec.
    Regarding your questions on handling "cSave" and "cExpense" commands in mList's comandAction, the way you do it is legal.
    By the way, it is equally legal to do it the other way - ie provide dedicated listener for formPerfil and handle its commands in that dedicated listener. It is a matter of your personal preference, which way to choose. Myself, I more often use dedicated listeners, about like like this:
    // assuming that list is implicit and that no commands are added
    //   to mList, ie only select command is available by default...
    mList.setCommandListener (new CommandListener() {
      public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable s) {
        // here,
        //  - I don't check c since I expect only SELECT_COMMAND
        //  - I don't check s since I expect only mList
        switch (mList.getSelectedIndex()) {
          // do things depending on list selection
    });

  • Question about left to right swiping between articles

    (I am new to Adobe DPS, so I apologize in advance if this question makes me sound like a complete newbie)
    I am working on a folio with two articles. I want the second article to only be accessable when the user taps a button on a certain page that will link to the second article. I got the button functionality to work, but now no matter what page the user is on, when they swipe to the left the second article is shown. Is there a way to prevent this?
    Also I am building this in CS6 to work on an android tablet (a Samsung Galaxy), if that makes a difference.

    Some people have created a workaround in which an invisible full-page 2-state MSO is set to Swipe. That way, if a user swipes left and right, they're swiping to view a different invisible state of the MSO. The only way to move to a different article is to tap a navigation button. You would need to add this invisible MSO to every page, and you would need to make sure that it doesn't conflict with other overlays such as image sequences.

  • Question about GRANT

    Hello all,
    I want to give some rights of the table "structure" to the user
    role "applik". Therefore I wrote as Admin of this role:
    grant all on structure to applik, public;
    For better understanding, I can access this table "structure"
    before this grant, too, but I must write e. g.:
    describe square.structure;
    to get out a description of this table. I want to get it out by
    typing
    describe structure; (without square)
    I thought, the keyword "public" does this job, but I must be
    wrong.
    Thanks, Christian

    GRANT assigns privileges only. If you want to be able to use the object without the schema prefix then you need to create a synonym, in this case:
    CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM structure FOR square.structure;
    cheers, APC

  • Questions about database access in WCS 7.x version

    Hello,
    In WCS version 7.x, events from controllers are stored in database. The limits for these events are 7 days and 40000 events. Does anyone know where  we could change these limits?
    In the other hand, we can´t access to database because we don´t know user and password to access database. Can anyone pass me default credentials for database?
    What is the procedure to change database password in WCS version 7.x?
    Thnaks in advance.

    Don't know about username and password for the database, but this might help:

    Q. How many alarms are kept in the WCS when are they cleared, and what is the average size of each alarm?
    A. The WCS keeps the last 40,000 events in the system and clears them up after seven days. An event or alarm can have 1000 bytes on average.
    A. Under the <WCS_INSTAL_DIR>/webnms/conf folder, there is a file called NmsProcessesBE.conf. Within this file, the user needs to modify the parameter CLEAN_EVENT_INTERVAL (default value is seven days) and the parameter EVENT_WINDOW_SIZE (default value is 40,000). The server needs to be stopped and restarted after the user makes the modifications.

  • About to purchase but question about usb access to Sony DVD-RW camera

    I am on the verge of purchase of a macbook and it would be my first mac at that. Specifically, I am looking for information on using the usb connection between my camera and the macbook. I am coming from the Windows world, and the camera software is windows only. I record my stuff in VR mode, and when I plug in via usb the windows software allows me to pull off the VRO files. Then I have another windows program that is able to read the VRO files and I can move them around (I don't edit the contents of the VROs), put transitions and then create a dvd. My question when moving to the macbook, can I still record in VR mode and then when done recording, without finalizing the disk, hook the usb cable to the macbook and it will be able to read those files? I read in other posts something similar but not definitive that it could not do this. There might be other software (ie, something call readDVD) that might be able to but could not determine, for sure, that it could do this over the usb (since I can't pull the 8CM disk and put it in the non-tray DVD drive). Or is there a better suggestion, please be kind that I don't know what is possible on the MAC.
    For what is it worth, my scenario that I have put up with (because it gave me results that were adequate) on the windows side, had me record in VR mode and it gave me control over all the individual segments (hitting record and then stop is a segment) that I could manipulate individually with the windows software. I don't know enough about what is possible with the usb connection and the software on the MAC to know what to expect out of the box and if I have to buy additional software (to pull the movies off the video camera). If I recorded in Video mode, and then finalized and then hooked the usb cable to the macbook, would the resultant files be able to be read by iMovie? If so, would it be the individual segments or would it be one be movie (ie, all segments rolled up into a/many vob(s))? I want to be able to join many segments from many different disks onto one dvd. Maybe that is the crux of my question and may really be better suited for the iMovie forum rather than this one. If, so, please forgive my ignorance.

    Welcome to macbook forum,
    Could you post your camera model / type, so we can check that out for you in order to give you better answers.
    Or you can check this link for camcorder that supported on new iMovie 7.x.x.

  • Beginner question about NetBeans

    I am new to java, which is why I am posting on this forum. I have been messing around with the NetBeans IDE and have made a couple GUI's now. First question is how do I have the window change. For example, if the application opened up and it showed a menu with a couple different buttons you could click to do different things, how would I make it so when you clicked a button the window changed into what was supposed to be on the screen next. Say one of the options was "Calculator", how would I make the window become a calculator after it was clicked? Do I make a new JFrame with the all the calculator stuff? If so, how do I "connect" the two of them? I want it to appear in the same window, not open a new one. My second question was how do I make it so my applications can be run from the desktop without having to build from within NetBeans?
    It was a little difficult to explain what I was asking, but any help is appreciated. I am assuming that what I'm trying to do is pretty basic, sorry I'm newbie.

Probably one of the more common ways is to use a CardLayout to swap JPanels, but other options including popping up a JDialog, using JTabbedPanes, hiding a JFrame and showing another, ... exist.
    It was a little difficult to explain what I was asking, but any help is appreciated. I am assuming that what I'm trying to do is pretty basic, sorry I'm newbie.You're doing fine, relax.
    Now I need to get on my soap box and discuss another issue that you've not asked about. First off, Java is not like Visual Basic, C#, or other .NET languages (assuming you may be familiar with the MS Visual Studio) in that our programs are not first and foremost GUI's with code tacked on. There's a lot to learn when starting to code in Java, enough that adding Java GUI coding may be a bit overwhelming at the start. I'm going to recommend that you put the GUI stuff to the side for a bit, study the basics of Java, and then later when you're comfortable with the rudiments of Java, start learning Swing coding but without NetBeans code generation. If you learn it through the Sun tutorials, Swing will make a whole lot more sense and even using NetBeans to generate some Swing code will be easier for you. Regardless what you do, best of luck!

  • Question about wireless access

    I'm thinking about buying an Airport Extreme for my dorm so my two roommates and I don't have to bother with ethernet cables. Once the base station is set up, will I have to leave my laptop connected to it in order to access the internet, or will the base station function on its own (meaning, can I set up the base station and have it stand alone as a wireless station connected to our dorm ethernet port)? Thanks.

    Once you have configured the Airport base station then it will work fine and no computer needs to be left on (unlike when you share an internet connection).

  • Question about asp access

    Hi.
    I'm trying to get information from a MS Access database to a Java applet. I think the easiest way to do this is to use ASP. I got the asp page working to access the database and print its contents but I have no idea how the applet can access that information. I know nothing about asp and got the connection code from a tutorial. Can anyone tell me how I can access the information from a Java applet?
    Thanks in advance.
    ASP code follows:
    <%
    Set MyConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    MdbFilePath = Server.MapPath("db1.mdb")
    MyConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & MdbFilePath & ";"
    SQL_query = "SELECT * FROM Table1"
    Set RS = MyConn.Execute(SQL_query)
    WHILE NOT RS.EOF
    %>
    <LI><%=RS("Name")%>: $<%=RS("Balance")%>
    <%
    RS.MoveNext
    WEND
    %>

    Thanks, I've gotten the reading working. But I'm a
    little confused on how I would update. If I wrote an
    asp page (say...called update.asp) that updates the
    database, how would I call that from java? You
    wouldn't use an input stream would you?Same way. Don't confuse the input stream with "input to a database". It's just the response from the service, and also the way to actually get the service (URL) to be invoked. Of course, for updating the database, you're probably going to want to pass the service something, telling it what to update. Passing it something is done (or can be done, as one way) by putting the information on the URL, like:
    http://some/path/update.asp?key=abc&newValue...
    And if you have any links to tutorials on asp database code,
    that would be awesome. Thanks.I'd suggest using good-old google: http://www.google.com to search for those keywords.

  • Beginner question about installing 1.5 on new machine

    I signed up for a Creative Cloud account when Edge Animate 1.0 was released and installed it on my laptop.  I am finally going to set aside some time to learn the software, but I have a better, new laptop now.
    It was my understanding at the time, and I have read about this recently too, that Adobe was being gracious enough to offer versions 1.0 and 1.5 indefinitely for free.
    My problem is that on my new laptop I can't install the software.  I found links for the Adobe Application Manager and people saying you could get it through there.  But when I open AAM there is no option to download the software.  I also installed the Creative Cloud software, but can't download 1.5 from there either, only the 30 day trial version (not what I was looking for).
    I was hoping to get the one that will work indefinitely at version 1.5 like I had previously, on my new computer (except I actually have 1.0 on my old computer).
    Any tips?
    I apologize if this has already been covered, I searched extensively through the forums to see if there was already an answer to my question.

    Hi, Jason-
    I want to clarify that we are not offering 1.0 and 1.5 indefinitely for free; we are offering 1.x in a perpetual license for a promotional price of free.  The first statement implies that we will always offer 1.5, no matter what happens with the HTML world.  The latter means that once you download 1.x, we won't expire the version you download.  Just wanted to clarify your statement.
    Thanks,
    -Elaine
