BIP 10.1.3.4 with WLS Embedded LDAP

Hi All,
Details of my setup.
1. BIP installed in weblogic
2. BIP Security model setup to point to LDAP (wls embedded). The following details I specified:
a. cn=Admin/passwd
b. Distinguished Name for Users:
ou=people,ou=myrealm,dc=base_domainname
c. Distinguished Name for Groups
ou=groups,ou=myrealm,dc=base_domainname
d. Rest all left blank.
3. I created the XMLP_* (all 5 groups to in the wls myrealm).
4. I created the users and assigned them the above 5 groups as well as all other groups that were present.
5. I did create the Super User also.
I am able to login using the LDAP users but I am not able to see the Reports (as well as Admin tab etc), whenever I click on the Shared folders I get an "Unauthorized Access: Contact Admin" error.
I suspect BIP is not able to resolve the groups for the users.
Could anyone tell me where I am wrong and what needs to be done. I think I have not provided the group details like search filter, group attribute name etc.
I am a bit new to weblogic and not sure what are the details that I should provide for the embedded ldap in BIP.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

WLS Embedded LDAP

Gurus,
I'm trying to register WLS Embedded LDAP under Global Settings -> Identity Management Setup. Has anyone done that before? Do I need to register a new identity plug-in? I'm a newbie on this matter, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Are all these sockets actually listening or are they waiting to be closed? You can use netstat -a to find the status of these LDAP sockets.
May be they are not being closed properly.

Help configuring SSO/OID with WLS 11g

Hello,
We have recently upgraded to 11g from 10g. I have OID ans SSO installed but can't seem to things configured properly. I have been able to "register" OID as the secuity provider via the WLS Console for the tools.
I have loaded the users via ldap add using an ldif from the old ldap server.
What I can't seem to do is get the sso login.jsp to popup when I go to our webpages?
I know it must be something in a configuration file but I can't seem to identify exactly what it is.
I've looked at all sorts of docs but can't seem to find the right one.
If anyone can point me to a doc that outlines how to config everything that would be great.
Thanks.
Steve.

Hi,
it works with this provider and we had this QA tested. I suggest you deploy the application to WLS and make it run with the embedded LDAP server similar to how it works with the integrated server. Once you have this working you configure the RDBMS provider to perform the authentication.

Programatically Creating User in wls 12.1.2 embedded LDAP

Is it possible to programmatically create users in WLS emdebbed LDAP? Can you please point me to any API or examples in documentation that does something similar?
I am using WLS 12.1.2.0.0
Thanks

you can find some samples in java2s.com
you can connect to wls embedded ldap in the following way.. once u connect u can create users in the ldap directly.. make sure u create users in master ldap

Embedded Ldap amd MQ?

I am setting the MQ5.3 as a foreign JMS in WLS8.1. Using OpenLdap is well done. However, I am having difficulties using the embedded ldap. Anyone knows how to configure the embedded ldap with the MQ? Thanks a lot. Simon

Thanks for the help!
          > Do you mean the LDAP server that's built in to WLS?
          Yes. I mean the embedded ldap server within WLS.
          > There is indeed an LDAP server in there, but it's
          > just for WLS security -- it's not a full-fledged LDAP
          > server. When using MQ, you need to put the MQSeries
          > JMS "managed objects" into a stand-alone JNDI
          > directory such as the JNDI filesystem provider or an
          > LDAP server like OpenLDAP.
          I have already successfully configured OpenLDAP as a JNDI provider to use MQ as a foreign JMS server.
          Is there any way that I can use/configure the WLS embedded ldap server instead of a third party LDAP server like OpenLDAP for this purpose?
          Thanks again.

How many entries is embedded LDAP of weblogic 8.1 capable to store ? let's assume we use default LDAP schema being defined in schema.core.xml

"ming qin" <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected]..
I would like to have entries as users.There are a few issues that arise as the number of users increases. The
first is management
of all these users. Will you be able to load/update/manage all of the users
via the WLS console?
You can certainly use external LDAP tools to manage the data in the WLS
embedded LDAP
server, but using an external LDAP server may offer better tools for
management than those
offered in WLS.
The second is performance. Since the ldap server embedded within WLS uses
in-memory
indices, the time to load the indices and the memory required for storing
them increases as
the number of users increases. 20-50K seems to have reasonable performance.
The last is extensibility. The WLS default authenticator stores user,
description, and password.
You may have different requirements and want to store additional
information.

RoleMapper with an external LDAP

Dear friends,
We use an external LDAP to store information related to users, groups and roles. We have managed to configure an out of box LDAP Authenticator within our realm for authentication. We wanted some guidance on configuring or writing RoleMapper.
1) What is good practise in terms of storing and managing roles? Is it a common practise to store roles in an external LDAP or do people use Admin console to created roles within the embedded LDAP? The advantage with the Embedded LDAP is definitely that you could use out of the box RoleMapper and the disadvantage is that we could not extend LDAP schema to store hierarchical roles.
2) If we store and manage roles in an external LDAP store, the same one where we store users and groups, could we still use the out of the box role mapper? If not, could someone provide a sample role mapper that uses an external LDAP store.
3) Why WebLogic doesn't provide an out of the box Role Mapper that connects to an external LDAP?

All Users Filter: (&(&(uid=*)(objectclass=person))(!(quitdate=*)))
User From Name Filter: (&(&(uid=%u)(objectclass=person))(!(quitdate=*)))
User Name Attribute: uid
Here you're configuring that uid is the key of your users in OID. And in your case user A and B has the same uid, so the webcenter can login using user B, but when realize a search uid=jack ldap returns the first one.
Make any sense for you?
Hope that I help you

Can I use your Embeded LDAP Server?

Java ftp server which can use LDAP, how to integrate with WLS' implementation of LDAP?

Howdy.
I'm setting up a java ftp server
(http://www.mycgiserver.com/~ranab/ftp/index.html) which is capable of using
LDAP for it's user security. I would like to integrate this ftp server with
wls' implementation of LDAP so I only have to admin one user list.
Does wls put it's user list in the LDAP or in it's own proprietary setup? I
tried playing around with it, but the users don't seem to appear in the JNDI
tree. Is this where the LDAP stuff is located? I thought it was in there?
If it's in it's own setup, is there a way to propagate the users to LDAP?
If these look like newbie Q&A, I guess they kind of are, I'm new to LDAP.
Thanks for any input you might have.

Peter,
If you are talking about using the embedded LDAP server in WLS 7.0 for this purpose
I think you are going done the wrong path.
Look at the following URL on how to use an external LDAP server for your custom
application

Using updated tools with WLS 8.1 SP3

I'm attempting to take advantage of some ant 1.6 features. However, it appears that the ant XML parsers are getting in the way of the embedded WLS xml parsers:
[servicegen] java.lang.ClassCastException
[servicegen] at weblogic.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser.<init>(SAXParser.java:140)
[servicegen] at weblogic.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser.<init>(SAXParser.java:125)

[servicegen] at weblogic.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl.newSAXParserImpl(SAXParserFactoryImpl.java:112)
[servicegen] at weblogic.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl.setFeature(SAXParserFactoryImpl.java:140)
[servicegen] at weblogic.xml.jaxp.WebLogicSAXParserFactory.setFeature(WebLogicSAXParserFactory.java:56)
[servicegen] weblogic.utils.AssertionError: ***** ASSERTION FAILED *****[ Cannot invoke boolean constructor of processor ] - with nested exception:
[servicegen] [java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException - with target exception:
[servicegen] [weblogic.utils.AssertionError: ***** ASSERTION FAILED ***** - with nested exception:
[servicegen] [java.lang.ClassCastException]]]
Based on some research this appears to be an issue with WLS getting a parser that it cannot handle. Given that the version of ant included with 8.1sp3 is pretty old, is there a way to use newer versions? I'm giving up for now on macrodef's but would, as a general statement, like to keep up with new tools as they become available. I'd like to not be dependent on turning a battleship to incorporate 15 months of development work (the time between now and the release of ant 1.5.3 as included with 8.1sp3).
Thanks for any information.

Had some problems like this before. Even thought I cannot offer specific advice as to how to fix this. If you do this, it could help.
Encountered a problem in eclipse while using WLS servicegen ANT task and, of course, the optional FTP task. I am using Eclipse Version: 3.0.0 Build id: 200406192000. With this comes ANT 1.6.1 standard. In order to get servicegen ANT task working I had to include the weblogic.jar in the ANT Classpath. Ofcourse this had another side effect, the FTP task that used to work earlier quit working. I still havent figured out the root cause of the problem but inorder to get around I did the following. To fix this, I added a new Task called FTP, I picked the c:\....\lib\ant-commons-net.jar in the location. The name I retained it as ftp. In the left page, I nagivated down to the lead of the tree [root]/->org->apache->...->net and in the right pane, I chose FTP. After this step when I ran I ran into an odd error Buildfile: C:\Work\JSSE-EJB.xml BUILD FAILED: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/oroinc/net/ftp/FTP Total time: 78 milliseconds I was under the impression that this is a legacy component and that the new version of the net component has org.apache....FTP structure. I am really not sure where, but to fix the issue, I had to get the NetComponents.jar from http://www.savarese.org/downloads/NetComponents/ and included it in the classpath. After this step, presto, servicegen task works fine with FTP task. However, I cannot imagine doing this for all the optional tasks. But for now there is a winding work around.

Java with Derby embedded and threads - problem?

Hello,
been developing java app and recently switched to derby database. At first i insert some data into derby and my app populates fine. However when my app creates a new thread (to do something in background and then updates the derby database) it all goes wrong. The thread is not responding and the database is not updating..
What could this be?
Could this be a database issue with java,jdbc, derby or just threads in general?
It was working before previously with my previous database: MySQL which runs in a separate process but an embedded derby just wont make it happen.

you're probably right that i'm making conclusions early but i've done everything i could and the feeling is like you want to give up. You feel de-motivated.
I've been switching a lot of databases and trying them out and it seems that i can't get it to work with the embedded databases for some reasons. Could it possibly be some other stuff that i'm running in the background.
Because, my background tasks is really heavy:
- it creates a few threads to do tasks which some of them recieve information remotely from other machines, a few loops here and there, a few other threads with starts up a few processes (external exe's) to do some work and finally a few threads to do some calculation & update the database..
But on the brightside i know my app works with my local MySQL database which runs in a separate process. I can also get my app to work with an online database on a hosting site - but the connection is very very slow (20 times as much time it takes to connect, i actually timed it.)

I received an email with an embedded QuickTime song. It plays but I would like to save it to my device so I may bypass retrieving it via email. How do I do this?

I have an iPhone4. I thought it came with the QuickTime application but cannot find it currently installed in my phone. I received an email with an embedded QuickTime song how can I bypass the email and save the music to my device? There is no difficulty accessing or playing the music.

Thanks Michael, this truth gradually became clear to me as I experimented.
Here's my workaround: Label the audio track something other than music and it will sync. It this case I called it a podcast and I could transfer the audio.
I will be provideing feedback to Apple but I am sure it's something they must be working on.
At the moment the only way to send an audio track labeled MUSIC to your iCloud enabled iPhone is to drag it into iTunes, upload it to the cloud, put it in a playlist, sync the iPhone then go to that synced playlist and re-download the track. Cumbersome doesn't quite capture it. Facepalm gets closer.
Looking forward to seeing iCloud mature.

Not all chinese characters display correctly with non-embedded text

Hi all,
I've updated to the last beta 2 of Flash Player 10.1 (10,1,51,66) and compiled this simple Flex application to illustrate the fact that not all chinese characters can be displayed correctly with non-embedded text (device font).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
               minWidth="1024" minHeight="768"
               creationComplete="resourceManager.localeChain = ['zh_CN'];"
               layout="{new VerticalLayout()}">
    <fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import spark.layouts.VerticalLayout;
        ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Label text="伜-伞伟传伡伢伣伤伥伦伧伨伩伪伫伬伭-伝">
    </s:Label>
    <mx:Label text="伜-伞伟传伡伢伣伤伥伦伧伨伩伪伫伬伭-伝"/>
</s:Application>
Notice that characters from the Unicode range 0x4F1E .. 0x4А2D are not displayed within <s:Label> component that uses Flash Text Engine (FTE) by default to display the text, but at the same time those characters display just fine within older <mx:Label> component that relies on flash.text.TextField instance to render the text.

    OK, did not know that "Arial Unicode MS" font is only distributed with Microsoft Office, was looking into relying on this font in case if "simsun.ttc" font is not available at the user's system, by using the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
               xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
               xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
               minWidth="1024" minHeight="768"
               creationComplete="resourceManager.localeChain = ['zh_CN']"
               layout="{new VerticalLayout()}">
    <fx:Style>
        @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
        @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo";
        s|Label {
            fontFamily: "Arial Unicode MS, SimSun, Arial";
    </fx:Style>
    <fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import spark.layouts.VerticalLayout;
        ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Label id="sparkLabel" text="伜-伞伟传伡伢伣伤伥伦伧伨伩伪伫伬伭-伝"/>
</s:Application>
Tough decision ahead, but accordingly to the survey at codestyle.org (2000 participants from 2007 year and onwards), Arial Unicode MS is present at 62.53%% system surveyed.
ps
   My current install of Windows XP already includes the install of Microsoft Office 2007 and I've also enabled/disabled the support of East Asian languages, thus the content of my "fonts" folder differs now significantly from "clean" Windows XP install version.
Nevertheless I found the page with comprehensive lists of standard fonts installed with different releases of Windows that looks viable here: http://www.kayskreations.net/fonts/fonttb.html

Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime

Hi,
Does an Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime (standalone/portable) that got published on Windows work on a Mac too?
Thanks

No, you need to compile a "bundle" with ADT on each platform. On Windows it creates a directory with an .exe and the AIR runtime. On OS X it creates a .app file.
