Bi office and USER variable problem

Hello,
On my OBI (10.1.3.3.1) platform users are authenticated through LDAP using mail as username (user attribute equals mail in LDAP settings). If authentication succeed variable USER is set to uid (from LDAP) and so web user (created in presentation) has name uid. The problem is when I try to log to bi office using mail. User can log in (LDAP), but there is no presentation catalog. I've checked the logs of bi office and find out that I'ts looking for user mail, but web user has a name equals to value of uid (from LDAP) not mail. I think that when log to bi office It doesn't execute initialization block associated with LDAP - doesn't set USER variable to uid. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?
I have also another questions: How delete web user or change his name in Presentation Catalog? I think I cannot simply delete/rename directory using Catalog Administrator.
Thank you in advance.

I have a Date column in the dashboard prompt which is specifed as 'in between' because I want my report to return fields only in between the dates specified in the dashboard prompt by the user. In the report in answers I have the Date column filter as 'is prompted'.
Now I want to use a variable (not sure if it is presentation variable) in the title of the report so the dates picked by the user appear in the title of the report when we show up it dashabord.
Thanks

  • UCCE - ECC Variable and User Variable

    Hello All
    As known from Cisco documents, total size of the buffer used to store the "ECC variables" internally is 2000 bytes.
    Is there any constraint similar for User Variables?
    Did some googling and found this one from the link below
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/10336156/icm-variables
    Its says "User Variables are up to 40 characters in length, with no specific limit to the amount of them,
    the data collected is stored in a specific way"
    Can you please confirm is there any buffer limit to User Variables in ICM?
    Thanks

    Mahesh,
    The ECC variable limit is 2500 bytes, not 2000.
    There is no hard limit for User Variables, though I suspect if you had more created than what can fit in the RAM on the router, you would have some issues. You would likely need many thousands of User Variables in order to use gigabytes of RAM, though.
    The use cases for ECC and User variables are quite different... an ECC variable is for data about the current call, while User Variables are usually more appropriate for "global" data that needs to last across multiple calls, such as open/closed states.

  • SCORM 1.2 and user variables getting forgotten

    Hi all,
    When I publish a course to SCORM 2004 all of the user variables get remembered from session to session but when I switch to SCORM 1.2 they don't. Does anyone else have this issue and/or any recommendations?
    Thanks!
    Mark

    I think you would need to write them all seperately, not sure if you can loop through all of the user variables, it may be possible though. The cmi.comments is a single string field that additional entries get appended to. You would need to use a seperator to get all of the values back.

  • LMS 3.2 and user tracking problem

    rme 4.3.1

    ipm 4.2.0
    portal 1.2.0
    cs 3.3.0
    cwasst 1.2.0
    running on windows server 2008.
    This was a clean bulid, and we imported all pertinent data from our old lms 2.6 server. This was in september 2010. Everything worked as expected and continues to work except for......
    We are in an upgrade cycle for our 4500s. We are upgrading from 12.2.50-sg4 to 12.2.50-sg8, and also upgrading rommon to 12.2.31r-sga4.
    It appears that user tracking is not working anymore for the upgraded 4500s. UT still runs, and works perfectly for all other devices, including the 4500s that have not been upgraded yet. I know this sounds goofy, but it really does seem to be the common denominator. I've checked the windows updates, package updates, etc in trying to figure out what made this happen. It really does all come back to upgrading to the above version. All aspects of this server are running great and as expected, it's just that UT for the upgraded 4500s isn't working anymore. I do run the logbackup script weekly (past experience has taught me to do this), and try and keep up with any patches or package updates, etc.
    If anyone has seen something similar or can suggest anything, I'd appreciate it. I think I am going to have to open a case on this. Thanks - chris

    Michel,
    Indeed, it looks like that is the problem. I guess I was focused in on CW rather than the whole picture. But yes, indeed, if I walk the mac table for a vlan on a 4500 that has not been upgraded it works. If I do the same on an upgraded one, I get nothing.
    The cautious optimism is that we do have a sup6 at our DR location that is running 12.2.53-sg1 and this test works on that switch. So as long as that
    version isn't deferred, we'll test that on one of the older sups to verify.
    So thanks for the help, I appreciate it - chris

  • Choosefromlists and User Field Problem

    Hi all,
    i'm trying to associate a choosefromlists to a user defined field added to the Warehouse Definition form (Form 62).
    I've seen that the form id for UDF is -62.
    I've followed the choosefromlists sample coming with SDK and it seems to wotk well, till i try to do the Databind with EditText field related to my UDF.
    I've written the following code:
    oItem = oForm.Items.Item("U_MYFIELD")
    oEditTextBP = oItem.Specific
    ' Adding Choose From List
    oEditTextBP.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "EditDS")
    Using the debugger i've seen that the problem is that oItem.Specific can't get the object on form so it returns a null value.
    What's wrong in my code?
    Thanks in advance,
    Nick

    Hi, according to the sample provided by SDK the field should be an EditText.
    The problem is that i can't get the right event when i select my UDF and try to creat the choosefromlists.
    Could the problem be that i can't get the right instance of the Warehouse definition Form?
    Could anyone provide me some sample code?...On another form too.
    Thank you in advance, Nick.

  • User variables on Entity problem

    Hi,
    I need to set up 2 user variables for entity dimension. When i used to have one a user could simply choose his value for the variable.
    When i added another variable for entity and user want to open a form which uses this variable he must first choose the value from preferences.
    This is where the problem comes in. He selects the values for both of them and when click on save then an error: 'Error on the page' (in the explorer) appears and it does not save the values.
    I thought it is because of IE. I tried it in IE7, IE8 and IE6 as well as with Mozilla. The same over and over again. But when trying this as admin I get not problem and setting the values is without any problem.
    Please help
    thank you very much

    Hi John,
    Thank you very much for your advice. The log does not say anything special. Just that user logs in but no other action (my changing values for user variables) because i suppose the save button is not working.
    But yes, if i go through workspace everything is working fine. But when going directly to planning (issue above always appears). Can you tell me why?
    thanks again

  • Query about User Variables and Advanced Actions

    Hello,
    I am creating a clinical-based project using Captivate 5.I have to give you quite a bit of information before I can pose my questions so please bear with me.
    Users have to select multiple options from a checkbox widget (shown below).
    Each options, for example 'location' is associated with a variable for example 'hpi0' (See below):
    Each option has addtional data associated with it:
    Location = hpi0 (user variable)
    Location data = hpi0data (user variable)
    Please see the screenshot below:
    Notice in the image above that I have created a conditional advanced action - if the user selects Location (hpi0) on the checkbox widget, the data associated with that variable will be presented to them. That data (e.g. location data or hpi0data) is presented in a caption text box in the following slide. (see below)
    I hope I have given you enough information.This is a complex project and this is just one of my many problems.I have had to create over 200 hundred user variables and more than 6 Conditional Advanced Actions in one project. The project is becoming unstable. So here are my queries:
    1) Are there limits to the amount of user varables I can create in a project?
    2) If so, how can I re-use the user variables I have already created? Otherwise I will have to divide this project into 3 parts and I want to avoid doing that.
    3) Are there limits to the amount of Advanced actions I can create in a project?
    Again  I am using Captivate 5 for this project.
    Any assistance, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. I am learning captivate as I go so If there is away to streamline this process, I am open to any suggestions.
    Thanks
    Tinukwa

    Hello Tinukwa
    This is indeed a challenging project, and although I did create a lot of projects with advanced actions, they were never that size. You have to listen to Jim's words about using some widgets, he is a widget specialist which I'm not. I do not know if you are aware of the fact that the checkboxes widget coming with Cp was extended by Jim? He offers it on his website, I blogged about this extension and suppose you do know my blog. About the advanced actions, perhaps I could help but only screenshots are bit limited. So I wonder if either I could have access to the file and/or if we could have a Connect session eventually?
    First intuition tells me
    we should look to re-use variables, but I do need more information; do you need the vars XXXXdata somewhere else later? If not, perhaps only to display it you could use one variable; now you keep the information chosen by the user in 2 variables: hpi0 and hpi0data (isn't that redundancy?)
    and by choosing labels for variables, actions and objects in an intelligent way reduce the editing time because you'll need a lot of almost identical advanced actions. Usually I do a lot of reflection before starting to create labels, variables and actions.
    About re-using what you already constructed: as I explained once, a template is the only way to be able to re-use a script at the moment. And Kevin Siegel discovered (so gratefully for that) it is possible just to change the extension of a standard CP file to cptl to have a template.

    PS Jim suggest also to split up the project? Here I'm not sure if that is really needed.. should have been the case for previous versions.

  • Problems with VAMT 3 to Activate Office and windows

    Hope someone can help with this problem.  =)
    The  School that i work for has a Volume Licence Agreement  for Windows and Office, and now we are starting to deploy office 2013 plus.
    Our problems started when we upgraded to VAMT 3.  The proccess went like this:
    Downloaded and installed all components from the Windows
    ADK, then imported the vamt 2 catalog (all the computers activated with vamt 2 are shown correctly)  then added the Windows 8 and Office 2013 MAK keys to VAMT 3.
    Next step was to search for devices, (by hostname),
    VAMT 3 found the computer, then proceeded to to update the licence status for the computer, then a window came up stating :  0/1 completed 0/0 succesfull  0/0 Failed .  No further error is shown.
    in order to troubleshoot i completely disabled Firewall  and UAC, also added the suggested Dword  LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy Value=1 to the registry on the client computer.
    The Computer that has windows ADK has Windows 7 pro 64 bits and its up to date.
    Any help is welcome.  Thanks in advanced.

  • Siginificance of the user and system variables

    What is the significance of user variable and system variable in
    windows 2000 environment?
    Because I usually set user variable(classpath and path) and system
    variable(classpath,path and javahome) after installing j2sdk and
    weblogic. But I find out one of my friend just set the user variable and
    running the same. I like to know that what the system doing with user variable and
    system variable? In system view, what is the difference between the user var
    and system var?

    Not sure what this has to do with Java, but: The system variables apply to all users. The user variables apply to only the user that set them. Sign on as a different user and see what happens.
