Can multiple OracleIDs be used to access datatase in a single HTMLDB app?

Hi,
In one of the apps we're looking to put together (w/ HTMLDB), we currently control database access using Fine-Grained-Access (with policies on tables that generate WHERE predicates based on the Oracle UserID in the session context). The way we currently have HTMLDB set up, it seems to be using a single "proxy" ID (HTMLDB_PROXY_USER) as the means of accessing the database, which means FGAC can't work.
Can this be configured to use other UserIDs when accessing/querying the db?
And...if so, can those IDs be specified somehow, either programmatically or at login time?
Thanks,
Jim Carter

Helps some more...tks...
So - is it safe to assume that the "v()" function is an element of HTMLDB that is installed and made public when HTMLDB is installed then?
Reason I ask is because we are thinking we could modify our existing predicate logic to check for the existence of the APP_USER value, and if it exists, use that instead of the SYS_CONTEXT() call, in our predicate generation function. However, seems like we'll also need some check as to whether the "v" function exists (ie. whether HTMLDB is installed), since the policy might be running in an environment where the HTMLDB app wasn't installed. But to even be able to compile Or, even where HTMLDB was installed, the query could be coming from a connection outside of the HTMLDB app. Does that sound reasonable?
Further, whether we use the existing SESSION_USER context var or the APP_USER one is really no big deal. The bigger question seems to come from mgmt of the user accounts used to access the application. Ideally, we want to be able to support access to the tables, either from the HTMLDB app or from external points (SQL*plus, Discoverer, etc). So the least common denominator seems to be Oracle (database level) UserIDs. However, can an HTMLDB app authenticate
using actual Oracle database UserIDs? That is, delegate the authorization to the database itself? And if it does, will the UserID be available via the APP_USER var, or some other...?
Tks,
Jim
BTW - If your willingness to help is any indication of the support on this board, that could well be the final selling point in deciding to use this technology - in other words, thanks a lot!

  • How can multiple users from different locations access my Muse website files to update them?

    We're a team, and we need to be able to work together remotely.
    How can I let another user (on the East Coast - I'm on the West coast) have access to my Muse website files so that they can work on them and make changes - but I can also work on them here?
    I've already made them an Admin in the Manage section of the live Muse website that is hosted on Business Catalyst.
    BTW, they also belong to Creative Cloud.
    Thanks!

    You need to share your .muse file with this other person.
    Muse does not currently support multiple users opening the same .muse file at the same time.
    There's lots of options for sharing a file - you could copy it up to a company network server, or email the file back and forth, or use a filesharing service like Dropbox, SendThisFile, Adobe SendNow, or Creative cloud sync, among others.
    Which one is right for you depends on the size of your file, how often you're sending the file back and forth, and personal preferences
    Whatever you choose, it's important that you DO NOT have 2 users working on the same .muse file at the same time. This can cause corruption of your .muse file. I'd also recommend frequent backups of your .muse file, as you might find that one of you clobbers a change made by the other and you want to be able to go back to your old copy of your .muse file to copy/paste some content to your latest copy of your .muse file.

  • Can multiple Virtual Devices use the same IVI Driver Sessions?

    I am using Switch Executive 2.0 and I'm having problems creating multiple Virtual Devices.
    I have created a virtual device on a development computer that has no hardware connected to it.  This virtual device uses specific drivers to simulate the devices.  The problem I'm having is that when I create a second virtual device and try to add the same IVI Switches as the first Virtual device, I'm getting the following error:
    An error has occurred while attempting to access the device deviceA_ivi.
    Error -223116 occurred:
    Internal Software error occurred in Switches software.  Please contact National Instruments Support.
    File name: .\source\mxsWrappers\tMXSObject.cpp
    Line Number 192:
    Status Code: -223116
    Can someone please explain why?

    Can you please elaborate on how did you create those simulated devices? Namely, what does your IVI configuration look like? What does the driver session for the logical name look like? What's the software module? What's the hardware module? What is the driver setup string, and what is the simulation mode for the device in question?

  • How can multiple users simultaneously use 1 library?

  • Can multiple web pages use the same cookie?

    I have an applet that will reside in several different web pages. The applet creates a cookie that saves user preferences and loads them when the user next uses the applet. The problem is that I want the same cookie to load when the user views the same applet at a different IP Address. Is this possible? If so, how? I am currently using the netscape JSObject stuff to write and read my cookie.
    Thanks,
    Derek

    Sorry, you cannot access cookie across domains.
    If being able to access same cookie from different pages in the same domain satisfies you need, read on.
    Let's suppose you have two html files kept on your server as follow::
    MyHTML/main.html
    MyHTML/subDir/A.html
    Now, let say that when you save the cookie, the path is not specified. A.html will not be able to access the cookie set by main.html. However, if you specified PATH=/ (along with other values and expiry date-and-time), both html files will be able to access the same cookie via the document.getMember method.
    This is more of a JavaScript question than a Java question and you might want to pay a visit to the link below:
    http://forums.internet.com/WebX?[email protected]^[email protected]
    you can go to the bottom of that page, click search and type in cookie and you'll see a lot of Q&A on the topic.

  • Can multiple APEX application use the same parsing schema?

    Hi,
    I have 4.2 APEX thru pl/sql Gatewat, 11gr2 DB and using theme 24.
    Due to the APEX limitation for version control I would be splitting 1 big ERP applications into 24 different APEX applications and each application would be considered as 1 unit for version control.
    I have about 800 tables and I would assume that all of these would need to be stored in 1 schema since a lot of these table are linked thru FK.
    Can I have multiple APEX APPS using the same parsing schema? or is there a better way to do this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Multiple applications can have same (one) parsing schema.
    You can test that on e.g. apex.oracle.com, where normally you have only one schema and you create multiple applications and all use that same schema.

  • Can Time Capsule be used to access video files for editing?  Or do I need a wired hard drive using USB/Firewire/Thunderbolt?

    MORE INFO ABOUT WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO:
    I'm using Final Cut Express 4 and would like to store my video clips on an external hard drive so the internal hard drive in my MacBook Pro 13 doesn't have to work so hard.  I heard from a reliable source that it might be impossible to access the files wirelessley though, meaning that I might need to get a wired external hard drive that uses USB, Firewire or Thunderbolt.
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks a lot.
    -Rick

    The experts in the iPhoto, Aperture and iMovie support areas all strongly advise against trying to locate a "working" library on a network drive, like the Time Capsule, even if the Mac is hard wired to the Time Capsule. Things would be a lot more dangerous with a wireless connection.
    Apple does as well:
    “Additionally, storing the iPhoto (or other image) library on a network rather than locally on your computer can also lead to poor performance or data loss.”
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5168
    You might want to post in the Final Cut Express support area to see if the folks over there feel the same way.
    Final Cut Express HD
    Your best best....if you do not have the space on your Mac's hard drive.....would be to add a USB, FireWire or Thunderbolt drive directly to the Mac to establish a "local" connection. This is much better and more reliable setup that trying to use a network drive, like a Time Capsule.
    Use the Time Capsule for its designed and intended purpose....your backups.....not "working" files. Time Machine on your Mac can back up both your Mac and the attached hard drive to the Time Capsule.

    Hi all,
    I am considering purchasing Photoshop Elements on our family Mac, there are four user accounts, when Elements is installed is it possible for all users to access it?
    I appreciate that I will probably have to amend the users access rights through the system preferences however I wanted to make sure that there isn't any restrictions from Elements point of view.
    Thanks for anyone's help in advance.

  • MapBuilder Base Maps - Can multiple connections be used?

    Hi all,
    I'm a complete MapViewer and Oracle newbie, and instead have a GIS/cartography background. I am currently looking to design an enterprise wide mapping service using MapViewer middleware.
    I have built up a base map using MapBuilder containing various raster and vector layers held within an Oracle DB, but i now need to add an address data layer which is held on a seperate Oracle DB and therefore requires a separate connection with MapBuilder. My first question then is, is it possible to build a single base map in MapBuilder that include's geometry/georaster themes from more than one DB source?
    Thanks in advance for any advice provided,
    Robin Burchfield

    Hi Robin,
    no. Basemap definitions use themes that are in the same schema. But you are able to add individual themes based on tables from different schemas.
