Challenge Question Max Length

Hi,
We're running into an issue with one of the challenge questions that we've defined. The length of the question is about 74 characters long, and we're able to save it in the 'Lookup.WebClient.Questions' lookup def successfully. The problem occurs when a user tries to answer this particular question, the page just refreshes there's no error on the screen but the logs show an error while trying to save the answers:

I did some investigating and found that if a questions's 'Code Key' (which is the part that's displayed on the form) happens to be longer than 63 characters this issue occurs.....does anyone know of any workarounds to this....maybe some configuration somewhere???....Thanks in advance for your help!

I am able to see error on the console.
Try this command on database of OIM:
ALTER TABLE PCQ MODIFY PCQ_QUESTION VARCHAR(200);
And then try.
Let me know the results.

Zero fill and max length VC7 Compile to WebDynpro not working

Hi,
i try to call Customer get list and set the attributes zero fill and max length to the input table form.
But the user has to put in the exact length and zero filled.
Any idea what to do
Thanks
Uwe

Hi Uwe,
if I understand your question you need something like an alpha conversion.
You can use a formula, therefore is an textfunction called LPAD(text,len,pad).
You can use it like this:
LPAD(@yourtext, 18, "0")
@yourtext contains the input, the length is 18 and filling values is 0 like a alpha conversion.

Marcel

Max length of G_F array

I have a html table on a APEX page. User can add/delete rows from the table at run time. I use attribute name="Fxx" to name input fileds. For example, name="F05" for the text_area inputs in column 5. When the page is submitted, I capture the values by loop through array apex_application.g_f05.
Everything works fine until I have more than 475 rows in the table. IE gives me a "Page can't be displayed" error when submit.
My question is: Is there a max length of apex_application.g_fxx type array? Have I reached the plsql limitation or apex_application.g_fxx limitation? How can resolve this?
Thanks.

I need to allow submit upto 700 rows from a html table on a APEX page. But what I have encountered is that if I have less that 478 rows in the table, there is no problem to submit the page and save all data to database. But as soon as I have more than 478 rows on the table, the submission will fail and the browser simply display a 'Page cannot find " error.
Has anybody experieneced this before? Is there a way to resovle this? Thank you.

Oracle Portal, OWA_UTIL.redirect_url and Max Length URL

I have a question relating to the max length of a URL that can be used within Internet Explorer 5.5 and Oracle Portal (3.0.9.8.5) On IAS 9i version 1.0.2.2.2
My portal page submits to a procedure that carries out some basic DML and then uses the OWA_UTIL.redirect_url api to go to a different page.
When I am in the DML procedure, I build up several string "name/pair" values that concatenate onto my redirect url.
i.e.
str1 := 'p_test=1&p_test=2&p_test=3&p_test=4';
str2 := '&p_loc=USA&p_loc=GB&p_loc=NZ';
url := 'http://my_procedure?' || str1 || str2;
OWA_UTIL.redirect_url (url);
The problem I am having is that in some cases the length of the URL that i produce exceeds the max length permitted by Microsoft I.E 5.5 (2048 characters) and hence my redirect fails.
I understand that if i were to submit the name/pair values through the header then I could have as many as necessary and have read somewhere that it is possible while using the OWA_UTIL.redirect_url api to write values into the header and then close it.
If this is possible could someone please explain how giving an example. If not is there a workaround to this problem?
Regards
Duncan

I believe that this API actually writes a redirect request into
the header of the HTTP request. For this redirect to work, the
body of the HTTP request needs to be empty (i.e. you can't have
any HTML being sent in the request).
The OWA_UTIL packages actually provide some leeway here because
it usually reorganizes requests. That gives you some
flexibility with what you can include, but I believe that you're
running into a limitation imposed by the HTTP specifications.

Set max length for input parameter in SSRS

I have an input parameter (@year) to display a simple report. This input parameter taken Year from user (ex: 2015) manually. Here my problem is to restrict the user to max length of
4. It should allow only (ex:2015) not (ex:20155) like that. Can any one please suggest me how to do this.

Hi SaikumarN,
According to your description, you want to restrict the length of values which user type in the parameter box.
In Reporting Services, it’s not supported to limit the length of the typed value in the parameter box currently. For your requirement, you could provide Microsoft a feature request at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer, so that we can try to modify and expand the product features based on your needs.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Different answers to Challenge Questions

hi all,
we are working with Identity Manager 8.1, and we would like the answers to all challenge questions, to differ from each other (maybe with a xml rule?)
has anyone done this before?
thank you in advance!

Here it is:
On the validation part of the button of the form:
do something like this:
<gt>
<length>
<filterdup>
<ref>waveset.questions[*].answer</ref> -- this returns all the answers
</filterdup>
</length>
<i>1</>
</gt>
If the length of all the naswers lsit is greater than 1, that means, there are some duplicates, irrespective of the number of repeated answers, throw an error on the form.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

OIM.. challenge questions one at a time

Hello,
I have a requirement in OIM wherein when a user logs, the challenge questions needs to be posted one a time, rather than all the questions. I could not find any hint from system properties or in tables of OIM. Wanted to know if this do-able and if yes, what parameters need to be set?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you..

Does that mean, I have to write a custom code for this feature??

How to set max length for TextField ?

how do i go about setting a max length for a TextField in jdk1.1.8 ?
a while back there was a topic on this but it was for jdk1.0
please help

well if it works in 1.0 it will most likely also work in 1.1.8 if it is depricated you can use the -deprication option during compilation to see what is derpricated and what method i advised to use now.
there may however be an easyer way in 1.1.8 but i don't know that.

I need to reset my challenge questions

I need to reset my challenge questions.

Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
3. Then choose iTunes Store;
4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
      Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
      like your security/challenge questions reset;
8. Click Send/Continue.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
      questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

Setting max length of the field when using Context Model Node

I have created a model using Import Adaptive Web Service model option (a web service was a wrapper around SAP BAPI function module).
There were no dictionary types created in the Local dictionary as a result of import.
I have mapped the context of the controller to the model node.
One of the fields in the model is name CUSTOMER_NUMBER type string;
Corresponding element in the wsdl of the web service is
<xsd:element name="CUSTOMER_NUMBER" type="tns:char10" />
I have created a view with the input filed mapped to the CUSTOMER_NUMBER field of the model node.
When I type more than 10 chars into the field and hit the search button, I get a com.sap.dictionary.runtime.Ddcheck exception that the length of the field should be less than 10 chars.
How can I set the max length of the field in design time to prevent runtime exception?
Thanks,
Julia

Thank you for your reply.
Java trim function will trim the white spaces only, not the characters.
I can code check length functionality before calling execute function (the function that call the web service).
I can also create a dictionary structure based on the model structure; create a context value node based on the dictionary structure and use WDCopyService API to move the data between value node and model node.
I was looking for the best practice...
When importing model based on Adaptive RFC, the dictionary structures are imported together with the model. This does not happen for Adaptive web service - hence there is a need to add coding for simple checks.

URGENT : Challenge questions query: Oracle Access Manager 10g

Hi all,
This is a query regarding password challenge questions in Oracle Access Manager 10g. We have created password policies for a specific container in OID (say cn=xxx,cn=users,dc=oracle,dc=com) and it is working fine.
In order to exclude certain set of users (say user ABC ) for password policies, we have set the obpasswordchangeflag to false for those users which are in same container for which password policy is created.
When we try to login to the application with the user say ABC, I am not seeing any reset password page - I am happy till this point. However it is showing Configure Challenge questions page. Is there any way to bypass this page? Or is this the expected behavior?
This is very urgent and prompt reply is very much appreciated.
-Mahendra

Hi Mahendra,
This is expected behaviour. In order to exclude the password policy management for some certains user for particular domain/container. please add the below configuration parameter to your OAM10g password policy.
Password Policy Filter Field (!(|(cn=xxx)(cn=abc)))

How to redirect user from login page to "Set Challenge question" page

How to redirect user from login page to "Set Challenge question" page (NOT custom page) after 3 un successful password attempts?
Meaning when user types wrong password 3 times they will be redirected to set Challenge question page. If user answers the challenge question then password reset page should be appeared other wise (after remaining 3 un successeful challenge question answers) account should be locked out.
thanks for your help.

hi sandeep
Thanks for your answer. Let me ellaborate more on the requirement here.
- Password Policy and Lost Password management are set up in the identity system
- Configure login tries allowed= 5. Verify accout is lock out after 5 unsucessful login.
This is what need to achieve.
1) If a user attempts to login 3(not 5) times using an incorrect login credential he/she should be redirected to set challenge question (security question) page.
2) Then if the user attempts (remaining) 2 times incorrect challenge answer then his/her account should be locked out.
3) If he/she answers the challenge answer correctly then he/she should be redirected to password reset page.
Is this possible?

OIM11g - disable set password on first logon + force challenge questions

Hi all,
I was initially trying to work out how to stop forcing users to set their passwords on first login. Initially by using the Force Password Change at First Login flag.
I found the following in metalink:
BUG:10256559: DOCUMENT THAT XL.FORCEPASSWORDCHANGEATFIRSTLOGIN NO LONGER USED IN 11G
The system property "Force Password Change at First Login" is not used in Oracle Identity Manager 11g Release 1 (11.1.1). Setting this property has no effect.
I have also tried setting all of the flags on a user relating to this manually, but that hasn't worked either e.g.
usr_change_pwd_at_next_logon
usr_pwd_must_change
I saw the following workaround in metalink:
How To : How to Disable Change Password At Next Logon in OIM 11g
Go to EM and change the ssoEnabled flag as per below instructions
1. Go to WebLogic Domain -> <Domain Name>
2. Right click and open 'System MBean Browser'
3. In the 'System MBean Browser' left panel, go to 'oracle.iam' -> Server:<server name> --> Application:oim --> XML Config --> Config --> XMLConfig.SSOConfig --> SSOConfig
4. Set the SsoEnabled flag to 'true' and apply
Which works, however it also prevents challenge questions being forced on a user, which we want.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

yes, system property doesn't work in this case. you can try the simple test case
1. create a new user
2. login to oim db and update usr set usr_change_pwd_at_next_logon=0 for newely created user. (default value is 1)
3.commit the change in db
4. close the browser or clear cache. sometime it pick the value from cache. better close the the browser and open it
5. login with the new user it won't ask for the password change but it will force to set question.

Challenge Questions

Hi All
I changed the number of the challenging questions and the required answers as well under OIM system configurations from 3 to 1 but right now when I am trying to user the "forgot password" functionality from OAM login page (we have OIM OAM integration scenario) then I am getting the following error message.
can you please let me know if changing the number of the challenging questions requires some other changes in the system configurations or this is a product issue ?
Thanks All

Oracle 9ir2 Max length of element/field name?

Does anyone know what the max length of a element/field name can be in Oracle 9ir2?
thanks,
-mcd

Thanks.. So, the max length is still 30.. what about this:
Is this also true for the length of element names defined in an XML schema for use by Oracle XML DB?
There are two ways in which XDB can absorb a schema -- one that causes the XMLTYPE to be stored in a CLOB, the other causes the XMLTYPE to be broken down into relational tables behind the scenes. The latter uses the element names for the table names, so I'm assuming it would be restricted by the 30-character column name limit (unless XDB has some way of truncating the column names but preserving the element names). But what about the case where the XMLTYPE is stored in a CLOB? In theory, there's nothing limiting the length of the element name.
