BI Publisher - SSO and IIS

Does anyone happen to know if SSO with the web server as IIS be an issue when trying to use BI Publisher? We are getting an error when trying to log into Publisher with SSO enabled (works fine with RPD Security). I have looked at the documentation and it has a section for updating an Apache file but I can find nothing with using it with IIS.

Ummm, I am not sure how you are using BIP under IIS since according to the [System Requirements and Supported Platforms|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10417.pdf] PDF BIP is suported under IIS via the Oracle Application Server Proxy Plug-in:
Microsoft IIS is supported as an HTTP server for Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher and Oracle Business Intelligence Office Server via the Oracle Application Server Proxy Plug-in. Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher and Oracle Business Intelligence Office Server require a J2EE Application server*
So you must have OAS installed in your system.

  • Java SSO and IIS

    This is a repeat of this post: Java SSO and IIS
    Noone answered there.
    Hello,
    my organization uses Java SSO authentication in Oracle Application Server. Now we want to "expand" SSO so that our IIS applications can benefit from Oracle SSO and user needn't print user name / password again. Is there any way to use Java SSO in IIS? In this project we use Java SSO, not Oracle Identity Management.
    Thanks in advance

  • SSO and IIS 7.5

    Does anyone have advice on how to configure JBoss 7.1.1.Final to successfully enable SSO using IIS 7.5 with integrated windows authentication. This used to be a simple process on CCP 9.3.2 but I've had no luck configuring JBoss 7.1.1.Final to use the SSO. The logs just always say the "LoginId not found for SSO in HttpHeader".
    I've successfully setup the redirect from IIS using the isapi filter to connect to the CCP application but have not gotten any further.
    I believe the standalone-full.xml file needs to be altered in someway to enable the SSO, any ideas?

    Hi
    We have resolved this issue, this is a known bug with JBoss 7.1.1 where the headers aren't passed through correctly. TAC had provided us with a patched version of the JBoss JAR file to resolve this.

  • ADFS SSO and SharePoint 2013 on-premise Hybrid outbound search results from SharePoint Online - does it work?

    Hi, 
    I want to setup an outpund hybrid search for SharePoint 2013 on-premise to SharePoint Online.
    But I'm not shure if this works with ADFS SSO.
    Has somebody experience with this setup?
    Here's my guide which I'm going to use for this installation:
    Introduction
    In this post I'll show you how to get search results from your SharePoint Online in your SharePoint 2013 on-premise search center.
    Requirements
    User synchronisation ActiveDirectory to Office 365 with DirSync
    DirSync password sync or ADFS SSO
    SharePoint Online
    SharePoint 2013 on-premise
    Enterprise Search service
    SharePoint Online Management Shell
    Instructions
    All configuration will be done either in the Search Administration of the Central Administration or in the PowerShell console of your on-premise SharePoint 2013 server.
    Set up Sever to Server Trust
    Export certificates
    To create a server to server trust we need two certificates.
    [certificate name].pfx: In order to replace the STS certificate, the certificate is needed in Personal Information Exchange (PFX) format including the private key.
    [certificate name].cer: In order to set up a trust with Office 365 and Windows Azure ACS, the certificate is needed in CER Base64 format.
    First launch the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
    Select your SharePoint web server and double-click Server Certificates
    In the Actions pane, click Create Self-Signed Certificate
    Enter a name for the certificate and save it with OK
    To export the new certificate in the Pfx format select it and click Export in the Actions pane
    Fill the fields and click OK Export to: C:\[certificate
    name].pfx Password: [password]
    Also we need to export the certificate in the CER Base64 format. For that purpose make a right-click on the certificate select it and click on View...
    Click the Details tab and then click Copy to File
    On the Welcome to the Certificate Export Wizard page, click Next
    On the Export Private Key page, click Next
    On the Export File Format page, click Base-64 encoded X.509 (.CER), and then click Next.
    As file name enter C:\[certificate
    name].cer and then click Next
    Finish the export
    Import the new STS (SharePoint Token Service) certificate
    Let's update the certificate on the STS. Configure and run the PowerShell script below on your SharePoint server.
    if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
    # set the cerficates paths and password
    $PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
    $PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
    $X64CertPath = "c:\[certificate name].cer"
    # get the encrypted pfx certificate object
    $PfxCert = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 $PfxCertPath, $PfxCertPassword, 20
    # import it
    Set-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig -ImportSigningCertificate $PfxCert
    Type Yes when prompted with the following message.
    You are about to change the signing certificate for the Security Token Service. Changing the certificate to an invalid, inaccessible or non-existent certificate will cause your SharePoint installation to stop functioning. Refer
    to the following article for instructions on how to change this certificate: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=178475. Are you
    sure, you want to continue?
    Restart IIS so STS picks up the new certificate.
    & iisreset
    & net stop SPTimerV4
    & net start SPTimerV4
    Now validate the certificate replacement by running several PowerShell commands and compare their outputs.
    # set the cerficates paths and password
    $PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
    $PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
    # get the encrypted pfx certificate object
    New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 $PfxCertPath, $PfxCertPassword, 20
    # compare the output above with this output
    (Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig).LocalLoginProvider.SigningCertificate
    [/code]
    ## Establish the server to server trust
    [code lang="ps"]
    if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
    Import-Module MSOnline
    Import-Module MSOnlineExtended
    # set the cerficates paths and password
    $PfxCertPath = "c:\[certificate name].pfx"
    $PfxCertPassword = "[password]"
    $X64CertPath = "c:\[certificate name].cer"

    # create a new certificate object
    $X64Cert = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2
    # import the base 64 encoded certificate
    $X64Cert.Import($X64CertPath)
    # get the raw data

    Add a new result source
    To get search results from SharePoint Online we have to add a new result source. Run the following script in a PowerShell ISE session on your SharePoint 2013 on-premise server. Don't forget to update the settings region
    if(-not (Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)){Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}
    # region settings
    $RemoteSharePointUrl = "http://[example].sharepoint.com"
    $ResultSourceName = "SharePoint Online"
    $QueryTransform = "{searchTerms}"
    $Provier = "SharePoint-Remoteanbieter"
    # region settings end
    $SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
    $FederationManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Query.FederationManager($SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication)
    $SPEnterpriseSearchOwner = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchOwner -Level Ssa
    $ResultSource = $FederationManager.GetSourceByName($ResultSourceName, $SPEnterpriseSearchOwner)
    if(!$ResultSource){
    Write-Host "Result source does not exist. Creating..."
    $ResultSource = $FederationManager.CreateSource($SPEnterpriseSearchOwner)
    $ResultSource.Name = $ResultSourceName
    $ResultSource.ProviderId = $FederationManager.ListProviders()[$Provier].Id
    $ResultSource.ConnectionUrlTemplate = $RemoteSharePointUrl
    $ResultSource.CreateQueryTransform($QueryTransform)
    $ResultSource.Commit()
    Add a new query rule
    In the Search Administration click on Query Rules
    Select Local SharePoint as Result Source
    Click New Query Rule
    Enter a Rule name f.g. Search results from SharePoint Online
    Expand the Context section
    Under Query is performed on these sources click on Add Source
    Select your SharePoint Online result source
    In the Query Conditions section click on Remove Condition
    In the Actions section click on Add Result Block
    As title enter Results for "{subjectTerms}" from SharePoint Online
    In the Search this Source dropdown select your SharePoint Online result source
    Select 3 in the Items dropdown
    Expand the Settings section and select "More" link goes to the following URL
    In the box below enter this Url https://[example].sharepoint.com/search/pages/results.aspx?k={subjectTerms}
    Select This block is always shown above core results and click the OK button
    Save the new query rule

    Hi  Janik,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display hybrid search results in SharePoint Server 2013.
    For achieving your demand, please have a look at the article:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn197173(v=office.15).aspx
    If you are using single sign-on (SSO) authentication, it is important to test hybrid Search functionality by using federated user accounts. Native Office 365 user accounts and Active Directory Domain Services
    (AD DS) accounts that are not federated are not recognized by both directory services. Therefore, they cannot authenticate using SSO, and cannot be granted permissions to resources in both deployments. For more information, see Accounts
    needed for hybrid configuration and testing.

  • SSO and portal timeout  -- other bug?

    ...this is very probably related to the other post talking about SSO and portal timeout...
    I am having another weird issue with dotnet portlets that uses inline refresh (done automatically by dotnet accelerator) and SSO.
    When you let the portal session expire, and then click on a button/link within a portlet (hence generate an inline refresh gatewayed request), the full portal window (header/footer etc...) appears within the portlet, instead of the portlet content alone.
    I did some http traces (see below) and it seems the problem is due to the windows SSOLogin.aspx (we are using windows auth SSO) not taking the requested portlet gatewayed request url as a post login redirect info... but taking instead the current page url (which is wrong)
    Thus, after the gatewayed portlet request is successfully authenticated by the SSOLogin.aspx component, it is automatically redirected to the wrong urll...making the full portal page refresh into the portlet.
    So my question is: have anyone already seen such behavior? And has anything been done to fix this?
    It really seems like a bug with the SSO servlet...but maybe i am doing something wrong...Just want to have your thoughts on this.
    Thanks,
    Fabien

    I have this happen in v6.0 sp1. We have worked around the problem with a bit of work and synchronization of settings. Below, I've outlined how we've worked around the problem (which is indeed a problem that should be fixed). Also, if you have a load balancer, you'll need to set your session timeout on the load balancer to a bit more than the refresh rate that you set for your communities and My Pages.
    Resolving the Portlet Timeout / Refresh Problem in ALUI Portal_
    Problem: Users occasionally receive the portal page within a portlet error
    Cause: The root cause has not been determined; however it appears that the primary event that exhibits the behavior is when a teammember’s session has expired on the portal server and they then utilize a .NET form-based portlet which refreshes in place. Because we are using WIA SSO to enable automatic logins to the portal, it makes the error seem to occur randomly.
    Resolution:
    The workaround solution is to – 1) increase the portal session timeout on the portal web servers from the default 20min to 4 hours, and 2) set the MyPage refresh interval setting for all portal users to 3 hours. The setting name is a bit of a misnomer, as it will actually refresh the entire portal page automatically if the user is idle on either a My Page or a Community Page, as these are the only two places that portlets reside.
    Increasing the portal session timeout:
    The portal session timeout is controlled in two places, and both settings should match. On the portal virtual directory in IIS, edit the configuration and increase the timeout setting to 240 (minutes). Then, edit the portal application’s web.config file (d:\portal\ptportal\6.0\webapp\portal\web\) and increase the sessionState Timeout variable to 240. Editting the config file will require you to restart the services before you see the change.
    Initial setting of the MyPage refresh interval:
    The initial setting will need to be done by a SQL script in order to apply it to all existing users. The Default Profile should also be updated so that all new user synched from AD will have this setting applied automatically.
    /* Delete refresh interval settings for all users first so that there are no conflicts on the inserts */
    DELETE FROM portaldbuser.ptprefs WHERE prefname = 'intMyPageRefreshRate'
    /* Insert desired page refresh setting for all users */
    INSERT INTO portaldbuser.ptprefs (userid,gadgetid,prefclassid,prefobjectid,prefname,prefvaluetype,prefvalue,pagenumber) SELECT objectid,0,0,0,'intMyPageRefreshRate',3,180,0 FROM portaldbuser.ptusers
    From Administration, access the Default Profiles utility. Check the Default Profile entry and click on the Edit Profile Layout link. Click on the My Account link in the Portal Settings portlet and then on the Display Options link on the next page. In the Page and Portlet Settings, update the Your My Page will be updated: setting to 4 hours. Click Finish twice to return to Administration.
    Updating the MyPage refresh interval:
    To update the setting just modify the insert portion of the SQL script. Change the prefvalue number (180) to the desired timeout in minutes and rerun both statements of the script.
    The Default Profile should be also be modified per the instructions above.
    I hope this helps...

  • Question about publishing Calendar and URLs

    Hi everyone, have a question that hopefully knows the answer too. I have been researching on how to publish individual user calendars to external users.
    I have seem to come across 2 different ways to do this
    1) is to right-click on my calendar in OWA, then I select the external recipient and it emails the recipient a long url similar to:
    http://webmail.mydomain.com/owa/calendar/[email protected]/4d9f8b52769b4ddca3e51f6f82d01b6f1902995877095312719/S-1-8-2306188436-3125773453-2945785077-3615357645/reachcalendar.html
    2) Within Outlook 2013, I click on "publish calendar" and it takes me to an ECP url for my exchange server where I can select how many months I want to share, the permission they can see, etc... and then it provides me at the bottom with two links
    like:
    http://webmail.mydomain.com/owa/calendar/[email protected]/Calendar/calendar.html
    My question is what are the differences between these two methods and also, both of these urls will NOT work unless I change them to HTTPS instead, how I can modify the links that get emailed out? I did see for the 2nd method above I can set it using the
    "PublishedCalendarUrl" in Powershell, but that is impractical for a lot of users.
    thanks!

    Hi BMIG,
    Please re-start IIS for testing.
    If not working unfortunately, please use IIS Manager to simplify the OWA url and force redirection to SSL.
    Steps as below:
    1. Start IIS Manager.
    2. Expand the local computer, expand Sites, and then click
    Default Web Site.
    3. At the bottom of the Default Web Site Home pane, click Features View if this option isn't already selected.
    4. In the IIS section, double-click HTTP Redirect.
    5. Select the Redirect requests to this destination check box.
    6. Type the absolute path of the /owa virtual directory. For example, type
    https://mail.contoso.com/owa.
    7. Under Redirect Behavior, select the Only redirect requests to content in this directory (not subdirectories) check box.
    8. In the Status code list, click Found (302).
    9. In the Actions pane, click Apply.
    10. Click Default Web Site.
    11. In the Default Web Site Home pane, double-click SSL Settings.
    12. In SSL Settings, clear Require SSL.
    13. For the new settings to take effect, open a Command Prompt window, and then type
    iisreset /noforce to restart IIS.
    Details in the following article:

  • SSO and how to Managing User Roles/Privileges with Forms using Oracle db

    We are in the process of implementing Oracle Application Server SSO with our custom Forms application using Oracle database -- all 10.2.0.1.0 version.
    In our Forms Applications, we have about a dozen roles we have assigned to various users. We need to identify each user using our Forms because we are using the GLOBAL USER throughout the application.
    Questions:
    -- Do we have to create users/passwords in both OID and application database?
    -- Is there a way to easily manage the user and passwords between SSO and Forms App/database in one place? For example, how does a user change their password once, but actually change it in both the database and SSO?
    Any advice and/or direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Yes, you can have global roles in the DB and assign this roles to specific OID users, and the will heritage the privilages, you can do this using Oracle Identity Management Web Tool http://hostname:7777/oiddas is not complicated.

    Hello folks,
    Due to my inexperience with PS6, I'm looking for some high-level outline that will help me look in the right places and understand things better here.
    I have an external application that requires authentication via a web form (or by attaching the username and password on the URL as parameters).
    What I want to do is have a channel of this application and utilize information from the SSO mechanism to redirect the request to that remote app and provide the credentials for a transparent login.
    From what I understand this can be done by having a servlet in that channel to retrieve the credentials of the user for that remote application from the SSO and then redirect to the external application, attaching the credentials to the URL.
    Is the above correct? I would appreciate any pointers or considerations since my experience with PS is minimal.
    Thanks in advance,
    Manos

    I don't see a way to that servlet to retrieve a password for the user - it's not stored in the session.
    There are following options:
    1. OpenText LiveLink way: You have some "hidden" password for every user (based on user's ID and a shared key) known only to your server and this servlet. Servlet will supply this password.
    2. Normal way - web server: Implement login module to this application, which will trust REMOTE_USER variable provided by the agent on the web server.
    3. Normal way - standalone app: Implement login module to this application which will validate DSAME session cookie on the DSAME server. You can use example code in the SUNWam/samples/ of your server.

  • Inserting a link to BI Publisher report and passing the dashboard prompts

    I have an answers dashboard where there are various prompts (say P1, P2, P3, P4  -all these are date prompts )and various  reports.
    These Prompts are stored as Presentation variable say var1, var2, var3, var4.
    I need to insert a Link on this page to a BI Publisher Report.  BI Publisher report also has some prompts say D1, D2, D3 , D4, D5, D6
    The link should take the values from the prompts of this page and open the BI Publisher report with D1= value of Prompt P1,
    D2= value of prompt P2, D3= value of Prompt P3, and D4= value of Prompt P4.
    I was easily able to use an action link -> "Navigate to Web Page" option.  I gave the URL for this BI Publisher report and clicking on that link takes me to the report.
    But I am still figuring out out to send the values of the prompts.
    The BI Publisher Report is :
    - built from an RTF template.
    - uses a SQL Query with Bind variables to get the value of its prompts D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6.
    - Suppose D1 is bind variable :date1, D2 is bind variable :date2, D3 is bind variable :date3 and D4 is bind variable :dat4.
    So my first try was to append the value of bind variable to the URL
    https://xxname.server.com/analytics/saw.dll?bipublisherEntry&Action=open&itemType=.xdo&bipPath=%2FSurvey%2FPhoneCount%20Record.xdo&path=%2Fshared%2FSurvey%2FPhoneCount%20Record.xdo.xdo&date1=var1
    Can someone suggest the steps I need to take to make this work.
    Thanks

    Hi, I am facing the same issue (OBIEE 11g version0
    Please let me know if you found any solution or workaround for this?
    Thanks!!

  • Sample JAVA Mobile Server Publish code, and technical questions

    Dear Oracle technical representative, or user:
    I need to programmatically create, and remove publications using the pure JAVA classes of Consolidator, ConsolidatorManager, and ResourceManager for the Mobile Server in OracleLite 9i Release 5.0.1. On the creation side I have managed to get the example found in the directory OraLite501\Mobile\Server\Sample\Sample11 functioning using my installation parameters. I had a very difficult time of it because (1) the sample11 code fails to open an jdbc connection to the Mobile Server Repository Schema with the function Consolidator.OpenConnection, and (2) the ResourceManager function openConnection will not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory. The ConsolidatorManager function OpenConnection may also not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory, but I did test the hypothesis. Both of these problems need to be addressed in the sample11 code, and documentation to save other software developers from wasting hours of their valuable time. See line 223, 386, and 448 in the Publish.Java code that follows this problem description.
    With the above two problems resolved, I can now programmatically create publications, but no hints on how to programmatically remove a publication exist in the documentation. The application I am developing will require the dynamic creation, and removal of publications. Also, when developing applications the complete removal of a publication is absolutely necessary when you have botched a publication. Thus my first question is What sequence of ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager function calls will completely remove a Publication?.
    I also have two issues remaining with the code that I have so far developed. These issues will most likely be resolved, when I obtain instructions on how to completely remove a publication, and associated users. But, perhaps not. Referencing the Publish.java file that follows this problem description,
         1. The ResourceManager function dropUser does not drop a user. See my comments, and code beginning at line 277 in Publish.java. Do I need to de-instantiate all subscriptions, and unsubscribe all subscription users before calling this function.? I think, I tried the de-instantiate, unsubscribe sequence without success, but in the confusion I may not have made the try.
         2. How do I get rid of an index created with the ConsolidatorManager function DropPublicationItemIndex?. My comments on this problem begin at line 522 in Publish.java. For some reason the DropPublicationItemIndex function call made below line 448 does not work. What function calls are required prior to calling the DropPublicationItemIndex function?
    Throughout the Publish.java code, I have made comments about some of the problems that I have had in getting the sample11 code working for my installation parameters. I think these comments should help the programmers maintaining the ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager code improve the stability of the programs. Please pass these comments, and attached files to the appropriate individuals,
    if you are in a position to do so.
    The other files that follow the Publish.java code are
         1. Compile.bat - Compiles Publish.java using j2sdk1.4.0.
         2. Run.bat - Executes Publish using \ j2sdk1.4.0\jre\server\jvm.dll.
         3. Webtogo.ora
         4. tnsnames.ora for the Mobile Server.
         5. tnsnames.ora for the Database.
    Feel free to access my server if you need to do so in resolving my problems. The parameters you will need to gain access can be found at the top of Publish.java, and in the included *.ora files.
    Thanks,

    Dear Oracle technical representative, or user:
    I need to programmatically create, and remove publications using the pure JAVA classes of Consolidator, ConsolidatorManager, and ResourceManager for the Mobile Server in OracleLite 9i Release 5.0.1. On the creation side I have managed to get the example found in the directory OraLite501\Mobile\Server\Sample\Sample11 functioning using my installation parameters. I had a very difficult time of it because (1) the sample11 code fails to open an jdbc connection to the Mobile Server Repository Schema with the function Consolidator.OpenConnection, and (2) the ResourceManager function openConnection will not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory. The ConsolidatorManager function OpenConnection may also not work unless the Webtogo.ora file is in the current working directory, but I did test the hypothesis. Both of these problems need to be addressed in the sample11 code, and documentation to save other software developers from wasting hours of their valuable time. See line 223, 386, and 448 in the Publish.Java code that follows this problem description.
    With the above two problems resolved, I can now programmatically create publications, but no hints on how to programmatically remove a publication exist in the documentation. The application I am developing will require the dynamic creation, and removal of publications. Also, when developing applications the complete removal of a publication is absolutely necessary when you have botched a publication. Thus my first question is What sequence of ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager function calls will completely remove a Publication?.
    I also have two issues remaining with the code that I have so far developed. These issues will most likely be resolved, when I obtain instructions on how to completely remove a publication, and associated users. But, perhaps not. Referencing the Publish.java file that follows this problem description,
         1. The ResourceManager function dropUser does not drop a user. See my comments, and code beginning at line 277 in Publish.java. Do I need to de-instantiate all subscriptions, and unsubscribe all subscription users before calling this function.? I think, I tried the de-instantiate, unsubscribe sequence without success, but in the confusion I may not have made the try.
         2. How do I get rid of an index created with the ConsolidatorManager function DropPublicationItemIndex?. My comments on this problem begin at line 522 in Publish.java. For some reason the DropPublicationItemIndex function call made below line 448 does not work. What function calls are required prior to calling the DropPublicationItemIndex function?
    Throughout the Publish.java code, I have made comments about some of the problems that I have had in getting the sample11 code working for my installation parameters. I think these comments should help the programmers maintaining the ResourceManager, and ConsolidatorManager code improve the stability of the programs. Please pass these comments, and attached files to the appropriate individuals,
    if you are in a position to do so.
    The other files that follow the Publish.java code are
         1. Compile.bat - Compiles Publish.java using j2sdk1.4.0.
         2. Run.bat - Executes Publish using \ j2sdk1.4.0\jre\server\jvm.dll.
         3. Webtogo.ora
         4. tnsnames.ora for the Mobile Server.
         5. tnsnames.ora for the Database.
    Feel free to access my server if you need to do so in resolving my problems. The parameters you will need to gain access can be found at the top of Publish.java, and in the included *.ora files.
    Thanks,
    Thomas G. Matney

  • SSO and WebUtil

    I have a form that was working with webutil. We implemented SSO on the server. Know the webutil jar file does not load - it can not find it.

    Has anyone use SSO and webutil?
    Thanks,
    Mary Santry

    Mary,
    using single sign-On with Forms should not have an impact to webutil.jar.
    Just to be sure: You configured webutil and it works if not running using single sign-on. You configured Forms to use singke sign-on (uncommenting th emod_osso directive in forms90.conf file) and from now on webutil.jar cannot be found.
    What if you directly try and request the webutil.jar file from a Browser
    http://wadjet.cauto.com/forms90/webutil/webutil.jar ?
    Can you access jacob.jar using a Browser URL?

  • SSO and BiBeans

    Hi,
    i want to use SSO with Bi Beans. I have my BiBeans deployed on a 9iasR2 (9.0.2.3). I edit the mod_osso.conf with <Location /*appname*> require valid-user authType Basic </Location> and i have in BIController uncomment the sso blocks.
    After authenticated to the SSO, i got always a NullPointerException. I looked in the code and i found that application.getBISession() is not initalized.
    Please, have anybody an idea, or knows anybody a documentation about SSO and BIBeans.
    best regards

  • SSO and success URL with parameters

    Hello
    I have succeeded to configure HTML_DB engine as Partner App for Oracle SSO.
    HTML_DB 1.5.0.00.33
    Oracle IAS Release 1 ehk 1.0.2.2.2
    I'm entering into HTMLDB application from outside directly to concrete page with concrete parameters. The calling outside app is authenticated with SSO.
    Example URL: http://host/pls/DAD/f?p=103:3:::::PAR1,PAR2:VAL1,VAL2
    I'm then authenticated checked against SSO and redirected to my requested page, but the parameters are lost. The URL looks like http://host/pls/DAD/f?p=103:3:987698769876098
    It only happens at first try. Next time I have a session and I'm redirected together with parametes.
    It seams that this http://host/pls/DAD/wwv_flow_custom_auth_sso.process_success is getting somehow wrong parameter URLC. Without parameters. Why?
    Please help!
    Yours,
    jan lakspere

    Hi
    Thanks, Scott.
    This patch 1.5.1 solved this problem. Now SSO redirect forwards the parameters together with URL.

    Well, this is certainly a case where I would be opening a tech support case. Your server is down, and you need help . .
    I'll try what I can for you.

    This likely means that you've missed another, earlier error in the log. I suspect that what may have happened, is that the USER that Messaging Server connects to LDAP with has had a password change, and you're no longer able to BIND to LDAP to make queries.
    I would start looking at your LDAP Access Log, and see what user you're attempting to BIND as, and see if that BIND is successful.
    The contents of msg.conf and your other file is useful as information, but is not a user-editable file. You must use configutil to make changes, as this data is stored in LDAP, and on server startup, the files will be rewritten with ldap data.
