BSP session management in Portal

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is a Portal or BSP question...
I have several BSP Iviews in my portal, and when i'm navigating between the different iview, I'm getting a large number of session of type "Pluggin HTTP" in SM04 transaction.
When the users logoff in the portal some of the sessions aren't close.
So I have two problems:
1- when the user is using the portal is there way of closing the bsp session when he moves to another iview?
2- why aren't all sessions been close?
Any ideas?
Thanks for the help.
Best regards,
Paulo Ruivo

Hi Paulo,
Make sure that your system is configured properly to handle HTTP Protocol.
I mean if your URL BSP page begins with http, you need to configure your system, within the portal, with http protocol.
Same remarks are available for HTTPS Protocol.
Portal view point
- To configure your system, within the portal go to :
System Administration -> System Configuration -> System Landscape.
- Select the System you are using to connect to the backend
- Edit its property "Was Protocol"
Backend view point
Check that all your BSP pages have this property "Unchecked" :
Properties -> Transfer Options -> Https

Issue with session management with portal 701 AFP

Hi portal experts,
We are facing an issue with one of our portal 7 ehp1 running the AJAX framework pages.
When logging off, the DSM popup is shown and it disappears. However, the backend sessions are kept alive when we look in transaction SM12, which indicates that the backend session has not been closed (proven in transaction SM04)
The same issue arises when closing a popup window. In this case, no DSM popup is shown and the sessions are maintained as well.
Popup blockers are disabled
Portal url and backend url are in the trusted sites collection
Does this have something to do with the AJAX framework?
Does anyone have any pointers for us?
Thanks in advance!

Luk

Hi Tom,
I already came across this note earlier. Currently I'm unable (not allowed) to install the httpwatch utility.
To add to the complexity, web dispatchers are used to access the portal and used between the portal and the backend systems. If I understood correctly, we need to have the ABAP Security Sessions Enabled setting turned on in this sort of landscape. Is this correct?
If it is not required, couldn't we just turn off this setting?
Thanks in advance!

ITS iView and Session Management in Federated Portal Network

Hi,
We use an ITS iView for an HR application in the Portal. When used in federation the session management doesn not work correctly. We fill in a selection screen in the begin of the application and then run the report. When we click the back button in the Portal and then reload the app, the selection of the previous session is used, in stead of showing a new selection screen.
This only occurs when used in Federated Portal Network. SAP OSS already pointed out that the USR_ABORT command is not given in the consumer Portal. How can we make sure that this command is given, so that the session is correctly closed? How can we set these session management properties and options?
Best regards,
Jan Laros

Solved it. It is done in the federation configuration. In SAP Note 880482 - Central Note: Federated Portal Network (SAP NetWeaver 7.0) the problem is identified, specific for SPS13. The two properties of the producer: External Hostname and External Port were not updated properly and needed to be changed manually.

BSP compression / length of session ID in portal

Hi everybody,
we are calling a BSP application from within the portal.
The HTTP compression does not work for the application.
When calling the BSP application outside the portal everything is ok. So the settings for the BSP itself must be ok.
What we found. This is the URL without portal:
http://.../sap(bD1lbiZjPTEwMCZkPW1pbiZ3PTEwMjgzNzAr)/bc/bsp/sap/cprojects/root.do
And this is the URL with portal:
http://.../sap(bD1lbiZjPTEwMCZkPW1pbiZwPTFodHRwJTNhJTJmJTJmZWxvc3ElMmViYXRnZW4lMmVjb20lM2E5MDIwJTJmaXJqJTJmcG9ydGFsYXBwcyUyZmNvbSUyZXNhcCUyZXBvcnRhbCUyZWRlc2lnbiUyZXBvcnRhbGRlc2lnbmRhdGElMmZ0aGVtZXMlMmZwb3J0YWwlMmZCQVQlMmZjb250cm9scyUyZmNvbnRyb2xzX2llNiUyZWNzcyUzZjYlMmUwJTJlMTUlMmUwJTJlMSZ2PTYlMmU0Jnc9Mzc0NjgyMCsmaT0xKyZzPVNJRCUzYUFOT04lM2FiYXRueGMwMV9OUFFfMD
AlM2FTSy1uRnZrcjNWdm9KWkJqblg2R2UyMmNibmlhZFpheWhQdkNYaWtNLUFUVA==)/bc/bsp/sap/cprojects/root.do
You see, the session ID is gigantic.
Q1: What should be the 'normal' length of the session ID?
Q2: Do you have any idea how to resolve this?
Thanks a lot for your help

Thorsten

Session management thru SOAP services

          Hi I am trying to deploy our application in a clsutered environment. Previsouly
          I had some problems with http session replication. That problems were solved but
          now I have another problem.
          Our application has multiple clients, some are browser based and some are swing
          based that use our SOAP services.
          all browser based clients use httpsession for session management, since weblogic
          replicates the httpsession, we have no problem clustering http webapps. But SOAP
          services has no access to httpsession.
          We have implemented our own session management (we cache the app specific session
          objects) so that SOAP services works fine (SOAP services doesn't have access to
          httpsession, so we could not use httpsession for session management). Each method
          in our soap services takes a sessionid and we get the session objects (not http
          session objects but our app specific session objects) based on the sessionid.
          But now that our application is clustered, the session cache mechanism doesn't
          work since its not replicated thru out the clusters.
          I thought I could use stateful session beans to cache the sessions, but how do
          I cache the SFSB thru out the session w/o sending any references to the SFSB to
          the client. I know I can send the Handle reference to the client but We cannot
          change the SOAP API now. The only information client has is the session id.
          My question is: How do I use SFSB w/o changing my soap services method paramaters.
          My SOAP method looks like methodName(String sessionid, ..............)
          I could use a clustered cache but we can't buy anything in the current situation.
          Any help would be appreciated.

Well, does the DSM log have any details? (see [Note 529924|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/529924] on how to view the logs)
My guess is that you are using different protocols between the dispatcher and a backend system: they both have to use HTTP or both use HTTPS (as described in the same note). That would also explain why the URL for the direct connection to the portal doesn't present the error, if that URL has the same protocol as the backend.

OBIEE11g - Session Management

Hi,
in order to integrate OBIEE11g Presentation Server with our Session Management infrastructure, we need to retrieve (from an external application component) the following informations:
1. Presentation Server Session ID of all users logged into OBIEE Presentation Server in a certain instant
2. For each user session, the timestamp of the last action performed
3. Any other possible information related to user session
Our requirement is to check the elapsed time since user performed his last action in OBIEE.
Whenever the elapsed time has reached a prefixed value, we need to force log off of the user from Presentation Server (killing his session) and redirect him to a custom page into our internal portal.
Otherwise, we need a way to force "keep alive" of the user session on BI Presentation Server.
SSO is not a valid option for our company.
Any idea on if and how this could be feasible?
Thanks in advance,
Massimo

JMStudio Error "Can not create session manager"

Hi,
I'm trying to transmit an mpg file through a simple pc to pc network, using the transmission wizard in the JMStudio, and everytime it causes a "can not create session manager" error, even when I try to transmit .mp3 file
I'm using an ip like 100.100.0.1 for the sender machine, and 100.100.0.2 for the receiver machine, and I don't know where is the problem
thanks in advance

Um,maybe the port that you use for transmission is already occupied.
Make sure that you are not using JMStudio to transmit streams while trying to receive streams from the same port.

What is new with MAX 2.0 and is it compatible with Session Manager?

We added non-IVI instrument information in, basically the same structure as for IVI instruments,
into the ivi.ini file to keep all instrument information in the same place. Using MAX Version 1.1 caused no problems whatsoever and the system worked fine. With the advent of MAX 2.0 you seem to use ivi.ini as well as config.mxs to store instrument information. What we have found now is that given a working ivi.ini file from MAX 1.1, we end up with 2 or 3 copies of all the devices in the IVI Instruments->Devices section! When the duplicate entries are deleted and the application exited, the
ivi.ini file is updated minus the [Hardware->] sections which contain the resource descriptors that our appl
ications look for. As an added complication, under MAX 2.1 (From an evaluation of the Switch Executive) It behaves the same, except that it almost always crashes with one of the following errors. 'OLEChannelWnd Fatal Error', or 'Error#26 window.cpp line 10028 Labview Version 6.0.2' Once opened and closed MAX 2.1 will not open again! (Note we do not have LabVIEW on the system.) What is the relationship between the config.mxs and ivi.ini now? Also, your Session Manager application (for use with TestStand) extracts information from ivi.ini and may expect entries to be manually entered into ivi.ini (e.g. NISessionManager_Reset = True) i.e. Is the TestStand Session Manager compatible with MAX 2.0?

Brian,
The primary difference between MAX 1.1 and 2.x is that there is a new internal architecture. MAX 2.x synchronizes data between the config.mxs and the ivi.ini. The reason you're having trouble is that user-editing of the ivi.ini file is not supported with MAX 2.x.
Some better solutions to accomplish what you want:
1. Do as Mark Ireton suggested in his answer
2. Use the IVI Run-Time Configuration functions. They will allow you to dynamically configure your Logical Names, Virtual Instruments, Instrument Drivers, and Devices. You can then use your own format for storing and retrieving that information, and use the relevant pieces for each execution. You can find information on these functions in the IVI CVI Help file located in Start >> National I
nstruments >> IVI Driver Toolset folder. Go to the chapter on Run-time Initialization Configuration.
I strongly suggest #2, because those functions will continue to be supported in the future, while other mechanisms may not be.

Session management problems with SSO

Hi all-
I've been getting an Apex app tied to SSO as a partner app (per http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/sso_partner_app.html). So far, it sort of works. If I go to my apex app, it redirects me to SSO, where I authenticate and end up back in the apex app. Great. Here are two problems I've run into:
1. If I am already authenticated to SSO, and I go to my apex app (url like: http://host/pls/apex/f?p=101:1), my browser goes into an infinite redirect (url like: http://host/pls/apex/f?p=101:1:::::FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL:\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f?p=101|1|||||FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL|\f? p=101|1|\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\). To resolve, I have to clear cookies.
2. If I am using my apex app, then log out of SSO (in another browser window), I can still click around in my apex app (i.e., apex thinks I'm still authenticated).
Anyone have any thoughts? I'm wondering if I need to do something in page session management (under authentication schemes) to fix #2, but I have no clue about #1.
Thanks
Rob

Hi Scott-
Thanks for the info on #2 - I'll work on that after I get #1 sorted out, since it's the more dire problem. Here's some more info:
Apex version = 3.0.1.00.08
SSO SDK = ssosdk902.zip
I set it up as "My Application as Partner App." I used "MY_PARTNER_NAME" as SSO Partner Application Name. In the list of SSO Partner Apps on the SSO Admin page, my partner app name is also MY_PARTNER_NAME. It gives the following info:
Login URL: https://sso_host/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login
Single Sign-Off URL: https://sso_host/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_logout
Home URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex
Success URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex/RBLICK.YOUR_PACKAGE.PROCESS_SUCCESS
Logout URL: http://apex_host/pls/apex
RBLICK is the schema owning the apex app. In there, I created a package called YOUR_PACKAGE:
create package YOUR_PACKAGE as
procedure process_success(urlc in varchar2);
end YOUR_PACKAGE;
CREATE PACKAGE BODY YOUR_PACKAGE AS
procedure process_success(urlc in varchar2) as
begin
wwv_flow_custom_auth_sso.process_success(
urlc=>urlc,
p_partner_app_name=>'MY_PARTNER_NAME');
end process_success;
END YOUR_PACKAGE;
Anything look obviously wrong to you?
Thanks!
Rob

Under Excel Service Application --> session management; what is the difference between Session timeout and Short Session timeout?

Any call made from the API will automatically be set to the “Session Timeout” period, no matter
what. Calls made from EWA (Excel Web Access) will get the “Short Session Timeout” period assigned to it initially.
