Configure Oracle Forms with Proxy user

Hi Everyone,
We have successfully enabled SSO with OAM, OID and used proxy user on the RAD config for forms and reports as described in thie doc: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/e10240/sso.htm#BABBEFGJ
Our problem is our forms user account has been prefixed with 'ops$' and we don't want to use 'ops$' for our OID useraccount. Is there a way to remap or prefix an OID user and tell form to use it to connect to DB using a proxy user? E.g.:
1. OID user - scott
2. DB user/Form user - ops$scott
3. Proxy user - midtier
Any insights is greatly appreciated.

JDBC Dynamic Credential with proxy users

Hi
We've developed an application with Business Components and it's been working very well. We're using JDBC Dynamic Credential like explain the document (How to Support JDBC Dynamic Credentials - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/dynamicjdbchowto.html). Now we want to use proxy users with JDBC Dynamic Credentials. How can we
user proxy users with JDBC Credentials? What classes or parameters we need to change?
I've been tested proxy users a lot, but in simple java classes, I don't know where to set some parameters in business components, for example, where can I set the following parameters?:
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME
Thanks in advance
Liceth

Hi Frank, thanks again
Now we are using JDBC Credentials(like explain the paper http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/dynamicjdbchowto.html), every user connects to the application with a diferent database user and password, then at database level the administrator can see diferents usernames (not the same user). Every application user correspond to a database user, relation one to one. The application works fine with that configuration. But, now for performance we want to change our application to use proxy users, I read that with proxy users redirectec to a single user, then the pooling connections are well reused, and at database level you have diferent usernames. Our principal goal is use pooling (for performance) and see diferent usernames at database level, this for facilitate administration tasks and auditory .
We want that the application user autenticate with proxy users (username and password) but we have some problems because we don't know where specify that we're using proxy users. (The parameters OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME).
We want open our connections with the following code:
OracleOCIConnectionPool ods = new OracleOCIConnectionPool();
ods.setURL("jdbc:oracle:oci:@"+tnsAlias);
ods.setUser("user_application");
ods.setPassword("oracle");
java.util.Properties prop = new java.util.Properties();
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_MIN_LIMIT,"3");
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_MAX_LIMIT,"20");
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_INCREMENT,"1");
ods.setPoolConfig(prop);
java.util.Properties userNameProp = new java.util.Properties();
userNameProp.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME,"Mark/123");
Connection conn = ods.getProxyConnection(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,userNameProp);
with other user
userNameProp.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME,"Marty/123d");
Connection conn = ods.getProxyConnection(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,userNameProp);
Thanks in advance

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users
I have a form that has a block that should display some data from another users tables. (The other user's name is dynamic, it's selected from a list box)
I wrote a stored procedure to get the data from other user's tables.
When I compile the form and run it with the same user I compiled, it works without any error. But when I run the compiled form with another user I get the ORA-04062 (signature of procedure has been changed) error.
I tried setting REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE to SIGNATURE in init.ora but it didn't help.
My Forms version is 6i with Patch 15.
Database version is 9.
Here is my stored procedure:
TYPE Scenario_Tab IS TABLE OF NUMBER(34) INDEX BY BINARY INTEGER;
TYPE Open_Curs IS REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE Get_Scenarios(User_Name IN VARCHAR2, Scen_Table OUT Scenario_Tab) IS
Curs Open_Curs;
i NUMBER;
BEGIN
OPEN Curs FOR
'SELECT Seq_No FROM '|| User_Name ||'.scenario';
i := 1;
LOOP
FETCH Curs INTO Scen_Table(i);
EXIT WHEN Curs%NOTFOUND;
i := i + 1;
END LOOP;
END Get_Senarios;
I would be happy to solve this problem. It's really important.
Maybe somebody can tell me another way to do what I want to do. (getting a list of values from another users tables)

I think it should be a better solution to create a package,
and put your own TYPES and procedure into it.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKG_XXX IS
TYPE TYP_TAB_CHAR IS TABLE OF .... ;
PROCEDURE P_XX ( Var1 IN VARCHAR2, var2 IN OUT TYP_TAB_CHAR );
END ;
Then in your Form :
Declare
var PKG_XXX.TYP_TAB_CHAR ;
Begin
PKG_XXX.P_XX( 'user_name', var ) ;
End ;

Weblogic & JNDI Data Source with proxy user.

We're trying to use Oracle proxy user authentication on a data source configured in WebLogic 10.3.6, however, we want to approach it in a programatic way. So we want to obtain the DataSource, and set the proxy related properties inside the application.
We came up with the following snippet:
Hashtable<String, Object> env = new Hashtable<String, Object>();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://10.1.1.10:7003");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "weblogic");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "weblogic");
Context context = new InitialContext(env);
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) context.lookup("ds_puser");
OracleConnection oconn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
The problem comes up when we try to cast the connection to OracleConnection, the thing is that the returned type is actually a 1036_WLStub.
How can we avoid that type or cast to it to something useful? I found this reference on Oracle forums and he's being able to cast it directly:
Re: My problem in using weblogic Datasource and proxy user
Can someone help us out?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Edited by: 990800 on 27-feb-2013 13:26

A DataSource is an Interface. What the code gets from the jndi tree is some concrete object that
the code doesn't need to know the name of, or anything specific about it, as long as it implements
the DataSource Interface, which it successfully casts to, to allow calling the methods defined in the
DataSource Interface. If you call for a plumber, you don't need to know his name as long as you
can get a plumber, and can call the "Fix this leak" method, defined in the Plumber Interface.

How compatible is Oracle forms with OCX / ActiveX components

How compatible is Oracle forms 6.0 with OCX / ActiveX components?
IFve got to very nice activeX controls (ctSchedule and ctMday)
from DBI-TECH(www.dbi-tech.com) but they donFt work properly
within Forms. They work great within VBA (word).
Sometimes they donFt display things well or donFt react to the
mouse in the properly manner.
What can be wrong os is Oracle forms not 100% activeX compatible.
Thanks

Hi b w,
I do not know much about Simply Accounting, however, if the Crystal Reports can be integrated with this software, then their tech support would be the best one to answer the issue with limited access to reports.
Secondly, if you can get an ODBC driver for your Simply Accounting, you might be able to create reports in Crystal reports (Again with no guarantee as Simply Accounting does not fall in the supported platforms for Crystal Reports).
I would suggest you to contact the tech support of Simply Accounting to know if there is any specific version of Crystal reports that works best with your software.
It is simple to create highly professional reports with Crystal reports and you can either refer to the help included with the software or can log on to SAP support site and download the Crystal Reports user's guide to get step by step instructions on creating reports.
Please do let us know if you have any further questions.
Regards,
Abhishek Jain.

Configure Oracle Portal with https

Hello,
Is there any way which we can run OracleAS on https after user login to system (after runing the SSO).
Thanks

Of all things you would want to be secured, the SSO is it. Why secure the midtier with the server doing the authentication is not.
At any rate, you can configure SSL for both servers. The 10gAS Administrator's guide covers it as well as the Portal Administrator's Guide.

Same machine diferent oracle products with diferent users

Hi,
It is possible to install database (oracle) with one user and client with another one (oraclnt) on the same machine ?
I did with the same user (oracle) on diferent homes without problems.
Thanks

It is possible to install database (oracle) with one
user and client with another one (oraclnt) on the
same machine ?On Unix/Linux I often do that. You may have to work around with some permissions. For example, on my Linux test machine I installed DB 10g and Forms/Reports services under two different OS users, both members of dba group, and I had to change permissions on oraInventory directory to give write permissions to dba group.
Using one OS user and different Oracle Homes is the "standard" procedure.

Column not found error while populatin a oracle table with ODI USer

Hi,
I am trying to populate a column in a oracle table with the ODI USER name using the function getUser("USER_NAME") in the Mapping column of the Interface, But the interface throwhing an error *Column not found : Supervisor in Statement [Select......]*. but it's working fine with getUser("I_USER') the column is populating the user identifier.
can any one help me out why user is not populating.
Thanks

Enclose the call to the getUser api inside single quotes
'<%=getUser("USER_NAME")%>'ID being a number can be used directly but USER_NAME returns a string that needs to be quoted

How use oracle forms with oracle database in a local computer network(client -server homogenious network)

Hello experts,
                     I am new in Oracle forms.I am using oracle forms 11g with weblogic server 10.3.5 and oracle database 11g at windows 7 platform.
I want to call my oracle forms(main login form) from different computers(windows7) connected in a local network.My oracle database is installed in a server computer.I am not talking about oracle forms hosting in internet.I want to deploy oracle forms in a local computer network connected via LAN cable or wi-fi.
thank You.
regards
aaditya

In most cases you can copy the same entry found in the tnsnames.ora file used by the database. In the database home, the file can be found in \network\admin. Open the file and you should find something like this:
yourAlias =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.100)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
So in the above, you would need to set the alias (this can be anything you like), the IP address or hostname of the machine where the database is running, the port number used by the db listener, and the service name used by the db. Most of this will already be set for you if you are copying from the database tnsnames.ora. So you should be able to just copy and paste. More information about the tnsnames.ora file can be found in the db documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/network.111/b28317/tnsnames.htm

Sending email from Oracle Forms with attachments

Hi,
Is there any package or option available in Oracle forms to send email with attachments?
Your reply will be highly appreciated.
Regds,
noneda

There are a couple of ways to send email (with attachements) from Oracle Forms. Check out these links to some examples.
using OLE2 or CLIENT_OLE2 to access a mail-client via Mail-Api ( Get and set Outlook properties )
using MAILTO in conjunction with HOST or CLIENT_HOST to "start" a mail-client ( Re: Open Microsoft Outlook new massage with TO containing the email address )
using UTL_SMTP for database-side-mailing ( Re: Send mail with attachment )
Hope this helps,
Craig...
