Completely avoid passing of Oracle user informations thru http

Hi friends,
I am using Oracle 10g Application Server & Oracle 10g Forms & Report services. But I have to pass all the parameters thru a query String. So the problem is all the endusers can view the Database details by taking the properties.
#) I want to set the Database Logon information some where in any confiruration file and this should read when calling forms. so that i can avoid passing of Database user informations. Is there any way to configure like this?
#) Multiple applications are running on Oracle AS and each applications are using defferent schema. How can I set the different User Informations in the configuration file.
I want to completely avoid passing of Oracle user informations thru http.
thanks & regards

Hello Lakmal,
As I said, you can edit formsweb.cfg and a user parameter section. For example, lets take yur sample url:
add this section to formsweb.cfg:
[change]
userid=lakmal/mabil@ewis
form=change.fmx
note:
it is better to make the edit at EM console itself.
Then when you will run the form use this url:
http://dunhinda.com/forms90/f90servlet?config=change
The url has been shortened and your username and password is hidden.
and if your user would run diffeent forms, you can drop the form=change.fmx and speficify form name in the url like
section in formsweb.cfg
[lakmal]
userid=lakmal/mabil@ewis
then the url will now be:
http://dunhinda.com/forms90/f90servlet?config=change&form=formname.fmx

User profile service not updating 'Title' in user information list

Hi,
In our SharePoint farm, following two user profile sync timer jobs are successfully running but not updating the 'Title' in the hidden user information list.
User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
User Profile to SharePoint Quick Synchronization.
Can someone point me to the right direction? Please note that I don't want to use powershell script shown here to update the 'Title' in the user information list -

Hi,
There are two jobs, User Profile to SharePoint Quick Sync and User Profile to SharePoint Full Sync, that synchronize the User Profile database information with the user information list. Sometimes this stops working (properly) and in that case
you need to run:
Stsadm.exe –o sync –listolddatabases 0
Stsadm.exe –o sync –deleteolddatabases 0
The first command will display all the databases and when they have been sync’d last.
The second command will delete the records corresponding to those databases (it doesn't delete databases/end user data).
Anyways, running this will basically tell the timer jobs that they have never sync’d and force them to carry on as if it’s the first time.
Go to Central Admin and fire off the User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
job.
For detailed information, refer to the following article:

How to verify the user information pass by the form with a stored procedure?

Hi,
I would like to know how to verify user information pass by the form with a stored procedure.
I want make a portal which accepts to new user registration, but I want verify the new user's informations (like the name don't contain a number etc).
Thanks for your help

Hi Samson,
You can use the UI API to do this. You can catch the form_ADD event and then validate the input from the users. You can even block the event from completing (and stop the document from being added) if your code finds some incorrect data using the bubbleEvent functionality.
I don't have one specific example to show you, but if you look at some of the SDK samples (for example C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Samples\COM UI\VB.NET\02.CatchingEvents) to see how to work with events, you can then create your own validation to ensure the users data is valid.

Getting Logged on User'Information in an Oracle-Form SSO Partner Application

Hi.
I could run Flight-of Fancy Application and capture user's information by calling the
"Parse_cookie " Procedure.(use the Scenario 2 - Access the Portal and then the FOF App)
and defined an Oracle-Form application as Partner application like FOF.
I want to have Logged on user'Information in the "Oracle-Form" . But the Fucntion owa_cookie.get dosen't work correctly.please let me know what can I do ?
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks in advanced. If you're writing your own partner application, then you are correct to get the user information from the output variables
from the parse_url_cookie procedure. You should then set the information you want to keep track of in the cookie, or combination
of cookie and persistent storage in the database. Take care of the security implications while doing this.
On subsequent calls to your application, the user info should be obtained from the cookie and the database, if you
are using a combination of the cookie and database storage to keep your info.
The owa_cookie.get routine is used to read the cookie, which is generated with owa_cookie.send.
These routines work fine, when invoked correctly.
If you are having trouble with them, you're probably not using the calls properly.
The following code provides an example of how to use the owa_cookie calls...
create or replace package testcookie

Displaying the current users information instead of the value of the person who completed the form in the first place.

I found this fantatic post regarding querying the user profile service
http://blogs.technet.com/b/anneste/archive/2011/11/02/how-to-create-an-infopath-form-to-auto-populate-data-in-sharepoint-2010.aspx?pi47623=2#comments
However i have an issue whenever the form is opened again either to view or edit, it displays the current users information
instead of the value of the person who completed the form in the first place.
Please help me, I'm turning more grey each minute

I think it is how the current user information is stored based on your logic.
You might be quering current value again when loading the form (Form load Rule).
you have to tweak your logic, after the user submits the form you can set the username to the one who saved it.
or in form load, write a logic to see if the form was not saved before and then query the username( by using internal field like "formstatue")
Hope this helps!

Issue in passing Oracle User Defined Types to PL SQL from Websphere Applica

HI,
I am facing an issue when trying to pass Oracle collection object(User Defined Types) from Java to PL SQL. The issue happens inside J2EE application which is running inside Websphere Application Server 6.x. My database is Oracle 10g and i am using ojdbc1.4.jar as thin driver.
The issue is that when i pass the Oracle Object from java side, the attribute values of the collection objects at the Oracle PL SQL side is coming as empty. I have tried the same java code in a standalone application and it works fine. The issue happens only when the application is running inside WAS.
Anybody has any idea how to pass Oracle User Defined Types from WAS 6.x server to Oracle PL SQL?

Andy Bowes wrote:
Hi
I am using WebLogic 8.14 & Oracle 9i with thin JDBC driver.
Our application needs to perform the same DB operation for every item in a Java Collection. I cannot acheive the required performance using the standard Prepare & Execute loop and so I am looking to push the whole collection to Oracle in a single invocation of a Stored Procedure and then loop on the database.
Summary of Approach:
In the Oracle database, we have defined a Object Type :
CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE MYTYPE AS OBJECT
TxnId VARCHAR2(40),
Target VARCHAR2(20),
Source VARCHAR2(20),
Param1 VARCHAR2(2048),
Param2 VARCHAR2(2048),
Param3 VARCHAR2(2048),
Param4 VARCHAR2(2048),
Param5 VARCHAR2(2048),
and we have defined a collection of these as:
CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE MYTYPE_COLLECTION AS VARRAY (100) OF MYTYPE
There is a stored procedure which takes one of these collections as an input parameter and I need to invoke these from within my code.
I am having major problems when I attempt to get the ArrayDescriptor etc to allow me to create an Array to pass to the stored procedure. I think this is because the underlying Oracle connection is wrapped by WebLogic.
Has anyone managed to pass an array to an Oracle Stored procedure on a pooled DB connection?
Thanks
AndyHi. Here's what I suggest: First please get the JDBC you want to work in a
small standalone program that uses the Oracle thin driver directly. Once
that works, show me the JDBC code, and I will see what translation if
any is needed to make it work with WLS. Will your code be running in
WebLogic, or in an external client talking to WebLogic?
Also, have you tried the executeBatch() methods to see if you can
get the performance you want via batches?

Pass oracle user id - forms to unix com script

In 10g Forms when using the host command to launch a unix .com script, is there anyway to pass the Form user's Oracle user id from the form session to the .com script?
The unix script executes an sqr program that requires an oracle id.

I managed to pass the UDT to another procedure as long as I only passed one at a time, instead of passing 2 instances of the UDT at once. Does anyone know if this is a limitation of ODP.NET or is there a way to pass multiple UDTs to a stored procedure? (I checked the code samples which come with ODP.NET but didn't find an exmaple of passing multiple UDTs.)
Thanks

Welcome to the new Oracle User Group Community

Welcome to the new Oracle User Group Community. Whether you landed here via the redirect from the previous community site - IOUC.org - or navigated here directly, welcome. This new platform brings new community features to enhance the way you connect with user group peers and with Oracle, as well as make it easier for you to find information through a more intuitive interface. We invite you to provide your feedback on the new site. Log in using your OTN Forum credentials and join the discussion here. If you do not yet have OTN Forum log in credentials, navigate to http://community.oracle.com/community, click on the "Register" link in the upper right corner of the page and create your account.
We look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Kashif,
Glad you like the new Community. Communication among user group leaders works a little differently on this site than on the previous site. Rather than having communication focus around e-mail distribution lists, communication now is focused within the site itself. The intent is that this will provide users the one place to come for information, rather than having to sort through lots of e-mail threads. That doesn't mean that e-mail is completely out of the picture though. Users can opt-in to receive e-mail notifications when an individual piece of content is changed, or when content is posted to a space. Look for the "Receive email notifications" link under "Actions" to start receiving notices. To stop receiving notices, go back to the same content/space and click "Stop email notifications".
Your Relationship Manager will be talking with you and the other leaders in your region over the next few days and weeks regarding how you and your group of leaders want to communicate.
Best regards,
Oracle User Group Team

Using Oracle Users in Realms and DataSource.getConnection

Is it possible to authenticate using an Oracle User via JAASRealm and also retrieve connections specific to that user from a DataSource?
I currently have an application which doesn't use either, but rather sets up a OracleDataSource. So basically I just want to allow the container to administer both the authentication and data source setup, while still allowing the getConnection(user,password):
CODE
ocpds = new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();
ocpds.setURL(connectionString);
ocpds.setConnectionProperties(props);
ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setURL(connectionString);
ods.setConnectionCachingEnabled(true);
ods.setConnectionProperties(props);
// Pool and Cache
Properties poolProps = new Properties();
poolProps.setProperty("AbandonedConnectionTimeout", "60");
poolProps.setProperty("InactivityTimeout", "5");
poolProps.setProperty("TimeToLiveTimeout", "60");
poolProps.setProperty("ConnectionWaitTimeout", "60");
ods.setConnectionCacheProperties(poolProps);
ods.setConnectionProperties(props);
Util.logln("Connection Cache Properties");
cache = OracleConnectionCacheManager.getConnectionCacheManagerInstance();
cache.createCache(cacheName, ods, poolProps);
cache.setConnectionPoolDataSource(cacheName, ocpds);
........later in the BatCave (JSP or a servlet).....
conn = (OracleConnection) ods.getConnection(username, password);
ENDCODE
This section from OAS Containers for J2EE Services Guide worries me:
(from: http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/web.1012/b14012/datasrc.htm#sthref572 )
Using Different User Names for Two Connections to a Single Data Source
When you retrieve a connection from a DataSource object with a user name and password, this user name and password are used on all subsequent connection retrievals within the same transaction. This is true for all data source types.
For example, suppose an application retrieves a connection from the jdbc/OracleCMTDS1 data source with the scott user name. When the application retrieves a second connection from the same data source with a different user name, such as adams, the second user name (adams) is ignored. Instead, the original user name (scott) is used.
Thanks for reading all of this, and I appreciate any help!

Update:
I'm still not quite sure what to do. Where I am now:
1. I don't know how to authenticate against Oracle database users (non-ldap) via JNDI/JAAS/whatever
2. Proxy authentication (ALTER USER...CONNECT THROUGH...) seems to be promising for using connection pools, and in addition, once realm authentication happens, I can just pass the username and piggyback on the middletier connection without knowing the password used in authentication
3. I'm not sure if proxy addresses the issue that OAS Containers for J2EE Services Guide talks about in the original post
4. I'd prefer not to use OID
Again, if you have any little information, I'd really like to hear it.

How to implement Oracle user/role security with Access front end?

Hi,
We have successfully migrated our Access database tables to Oracle 10g using SQL developer. We've recreated all the users and roles(i.e., access groups) in Oracle and granted rights to tables.
In the Access front end database, in the Database window we have saved linked Oracle tables which replaced the Access tables. The forms, reports, queries run fine with the linked Oracle tables. All the linked table use one ODBC DSN to the Oracle database with the same Oracle user id.
We need to be able to authenticate users into the Oracle database and RE-link the tables based on their own unique user id. By during so we can allow users to use the Oracle standard user id/role and system privileges to control select, update, ect. rights to the database.
I've been able to use the VB code within Access to logon into the database with a unique id, but I have not been able to find out how to RE-link the tables to the unique user id using VB. There should be some way to relink tables dynamically, based on users login into the Access front end.
I don't know a great deal about Access projects, but I do know with SQL server allows login into your Access project and link tables dynamically.
Can someone give me some assistance or point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Larry

We had one of our programmers here come up with a VB code solution for re-linking table within Access. However the relinking takes 3-4 minutes for 100+ tables.
In an effort to help you understand the situation better, I will attempt to elaborate on the problem:
We have an Access 2003 application which currently has a front end using Access(forms, reports, queries, & VB code) and a MS Access 2003 backend.
We have migrated the backend tables to Oracle. However, we still have a need to maintain the front end in Access, since we have over 60 forms, 40 reports, 200+ queries in Access. Its easy to understand, we have a significant investment in the front end(Obviously, the plan is to migrate the front end also at some future date).
In order to utilized the existing front end, we have to validate and modify the current front end connections to the new Oracle backend. One of the features of Access is that you can "link" tables and save the link for runtime. Each Access table can have its own link which is a separate ODBC/JET connection. As such, each separate link has its own userid/database information.
The other issue with using the Access front-end is that Access utilizes a workgroup file to implement user and group security. The workgroup file contains all the users and which groups the users belong to in Access. Then within Access, you allow users access to object(tables, queries, ect) by their userid and or group. When users open an Access database with Access security enabled, they are required to log into Access. The login is authenticated by the workgroup file. Once, logged into Access, users have rights to Access objects based on their rights granted to their userid and groups they belong. The problem here is that when you remove the linked Access tables and replace them with linked Oracle tables, Access has knowledge about Oracle table rights granted to users; nor would you expect it to.
The dilema is the disconnect between Access and the fact Oracle utilizes a similar but much more sophisticated security model. It creates users and roles(which are similar to Access groups), and again this is independent of Access security.
Our solution was to still use the Access workgroup file security along with the Oracle security model. By using the Access userid and then creating a similar Oracle userid with similar table rights granted in Access, you could apply security within Access and also with the Oracle database.
For example, a user BOB logs into Access via the workgroup file, using VB code, Access then establishes a Oracle connection logining into Oracle using the same unique userid BOB into Oracle.
After connecting and validating user BOB into Oracle, then the Access tables are relinked to Oracle using the user BOB userid and table rights.
This Oracle userid has been granted table rights specific for this userid.This allows the user BOB to use the Access application and still be authenticated into the Oracle database.
The problem with this solution is that the relinking of the saved Access tables takes 3-7 minutes for about 100+ tables. This is not acceptable for users each time they log into the application.
Our current alternative is to use one Oracle userid to login each user, and use Access form restrictions/security to allow/prevent users from updating/viewing data. Obviously, this is not the optimal solution in respect to security, but it at least allows us to control access to the data(via the forms) by using one logon required for each user, and quick startup time for the application.
I understand SQL server does a better job in integration, but we use Oracle which is what I am trying to work with.

Hi,
I am trying to print a report from web application. When I click on the print button then the page is redirected to the below link and asking for user information. See the below given link for more help.
_http://<server><port>PlatformServices/service/app/logon.do?appKind=InfoView&service=%2FOpenDocument%2FappService.do&backContext=%2FOpenDocument&backUrl=%2Fopendoc%2FopenDocument.jsp%3FSERVICE%3D%252FOpenDocument%252FappService.do%26OBJIDS%3D20016421%26backUrl%3D%252Fcontent%252Fview.do%26PREF%3DmaxOpageUt%253D200%253BmaxOpageC%253D10%253Btz%253DUS%252FPacific%253BmUnit%253Dinch%253BshowFilters%253Dtrue%253BsmtpFrom%253Dtrue%253BpromptForUnsavedData%253Dtrue%253B%26CONTAINERID%3D6424083%26backContext%3D%252FPlatformServices%26LOC%3Den%26APPKIND%3DInfoView%26PVL%3Den%26ACTID%3D280%26service%3Dtimeout&backUrlParents=1&appName=OpenDocument&prodName=BusinessObjects+Enterprise&cmsVisible=false&cms=<servername>%3A6600&authenticationVisible=false&authType=secEnterprise&sso=false&sm=true&smAuth=secLDAP&persistCookies=true&sessionCookie=true&useLogonToken=true
The instance Id for the report is generated successfully and the staus of the report is showing as success on Business Objects server side ie. crystal server side.
And we are using OpneDocumentURL for generating the report. And the in the URL we are passing the "Instatce ID" and the "Token" which Both are generated successfully.

Hi,
This is a crystal report link which i am trying to print.
The actual URL to generate a report is,
http://servername:port/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?&iDocID=22874532&token=systemname%4022874531JOLS2B40fr7cuAE522874529JVB36Yr3PswjM7IP
