Create user with special character

Hi,
We are getting the error while creating a user with special character in a filed. The same user is getting created in development environment but not able to create the same in Production environment.
We tried to check if any configurations are different but couldn't find any clue. Please help in this regards.
+Exception caught while insertng or updating the user.java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.naming.directory.InvalidAttributeValueException: [LDAP: error code 19 - Value of attribute "uid" contains extended (8-bit) characters: americas-Isosystem_ Serviço]; remaining name 'uid=americas-Isosystem_ Serviço, ou=People'+*
Regards,
Abhinav

No there are no restrictions from LDAP,
also I am able to give 32 character password in Coreid Console,
it seems that the web services have a restriction on password length.
Moreover, these web services used to accept 32 characyer passwords few months ago. we lately recognized this issue happening recent times.
I suspect some Oracle hotfix or patch would have made the difference.
But I am clue less how to trace it,
Any help would be appreciated

Creating UserID with special character "/"

Hi
I would like to create users with userid as "ID/1234". But OIM is not allowing this "/" special character.
I have checked the link Special Characters in password global.security.filter and set the <SecurityLevel> to 0 and restarted OIM server. But still OIM is not allowing to add this special character.
Do i need to add this character to global.security.filter parameter in xlWebAdmin.properties also?
Thanks

I also tried removing the filters
<\\s*/\\s*, \\s*/\\s*>
from the global.security.filter parameter in xlDefaultAdmin.properties from the following location.
*<XL_HOME>\xellerate\OIMApplications\WLXellerateFull.ear\xlWebApp.war\WEB-INF\classes.*
And then i run patch_weblogic.cmd, but the updated WLXellerateFull.ear(inside xellerate) does not contain my change in the property file.
I think the location I am referring is not correct.
OIM Version: OIM 9.1.0.1
Weblogic: 10.3
Pls help.

DIS PDF with special Character like cyrillic or chinese

Hello,
does anybody know how I can solve my Problem with PDF-Documents with Special Character which are Checked In (Tcode CV02N)
If I want to open the file again, it will be downloaded to
C:\Users\....\AppData\Local\SAP\SAPGUI\tmp\####
and not with the Special characters.... so SAP says
File
C:\.......
could not be accessed
So is there any flag to set in the customizing that the downloaded file will be with the correct Name or any note?
(Our System is a Unicode System)
(my Laptop has all the Windows updates including the language packages for Russia and China)
Thanks in advance
Stephan

Hello,
the SAPhttp.exe is in the Folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\Unicode
on my laptop
therefore I think it should be the Unicode Version?

Material master with special character

I want to create material master starting with special character eg #1234 but system gives a error message as
"not defined for material type Finished products"
Where could be the issue.

What special character do you want?
your special character is probably beyond ZZZZZ in the numenclature of characters.
enter you special character instead of the Zs in the number range definition and try again.

Problem in creating users with password restrictions

I have enabled the following option in the Authentication>Enterprise tab of CMC.
Must contain at least N Characters and specified N as 7
Enforce mixed-case passwords
However I am able to create user with password as abcd.
Please suggest.
Thanks in Advance

I might be missing something but the rule applies to users changing their pw not administrators creating accounts. If the administrator sets this rule it would be thought/assumed that they would enforce their own rule when creating accounts. The users however should not be able to select 4 character passwords.
I'll run some tests and see if I find out anything different.
Tested this on XIR2 SP4 and XI 3.0 The rules apply to the user not the administrator creating the account.
So create an account while the 7 character pw is enabled. By default the user logs in with the pw (any amount of characters) and is prompted to change their pw. They cannot choose anything less than 7 characters. So unless an administrator creates an account with a password less than 7 characters AND deselects the option to force a pw change. All new users will be forced to select a 7 character password.
This is by design. If it forced the administrator to create accounts without a 7 character pw they could simply deselect the options(as administrators) so there is no security in forcing this.

Tim

Error: Invalid dimension member with special character / in BPC NW 7.5 SP7

Hi experts,
We are encountering the following problem in our Financial Planning application.
We are migrating our existing BPC solution from one server to another through backup and restore. The existing solution was on BPC NW 7.5 SP 5. The profit_centre dimension in the existing solutions has several member ids with special character '/' (forward slash). The dimension never threw an error when processed in the existing solution and there is planning transactional data against these member ids.
While the entire configration , appset , files were successfully restored through UJBR on the new system (BPC 7.5 SP7) through UJBR (backup and restore), the masterdata could not be restored only for this Profit_centre (masterdata for other dimensions were processed successfullu). All the member ids with / are rejected for this dimension. The same error is thrown if processed through the admin client from the member sheet.
Error: Dimension member PC_FF/WS/NT is an invalid member ID
Error in Admin module
Is there any setting which need to be made to allow / character in member ids? Any suggestion to get around this problem would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Abhiman

Hi Abhiman,
Yes, you need to maintain the transformation file to correct all dimension member IDs. Can you please refer to the following link with a similar issue:
conversion file formula not working
Hope this helps.

Create user with select privilege only one schema

can someone tell me how i can create user with select priviliges only one schema.
i don't want the user to have any select privileges with other schema.
can someone advise me.
Thansk

In general, you would do something like
CREATE ROLE abc_read_only;
FOR x IN (SELECT * FROM dba_tables WHERE owner='ABC')
LOOP
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'GRANT SELECT ON abc.' || x.table_name || ' TO abc_read_only';
END LOOP;
CREATE USER your_user ...;
GRANT abc_read_only TO your_userYou create a role, grant the role SELECT access to all the tables in the ABC schema (you can extend this to grant access to views, functions, etc depending on the requirements), and then grant that role to your user.

Creating user with extension mobility on prime provisioning 10.5

Hi All,
Does anyone know any document or have any expirenece on creating user with extension mobility on prime provisioning 10.5?
I'm facing challenges on it, appreciate if you have any document or experience to share with me.
Thanks,
Cherry

What sort of issues are you facing?
I'm also having problems, but I think it is system related.
CUCM is LDAP synced.
When PCP tries to provision Extension Mobility Access, it actually seems to be trying to update the user on CUCM (via AXL) (this fails as it is an LDAP user and the values come from LDAP and cannot be updated)
I've got a tac case open.
Bug details are currently hidden - CSCuo11522 - but this one is extension mobility provisioning issue
There was also mention of another bug related to failures to provision users with directory URI's in their LDAP record. I didn't catch a bug ID for this one though.
Cheers,
Tim

Problem in dealing with special-character filename

Hi,
I am facing a weird problem while dealing with a file which has a special character in its name. That character is the big-hyphen, i.e. '' (not the normal hyphen we can type from keyboard), you would have seen this character in MS Word.
My java program is running on HP-UX OS, and its basically trying to copy this file to a Windows target system through socket. But while executing it, I am getting Broken Pipe Exception.
I am applying UTF-8 encoding while running my program (by specifying the argument "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" in the java process), and I am also confirming that the file-encoding is being applied to UTF-8 properly by putting a debug in the beginning of the program. My understanding is UTF-8 supports all the characters exist in this world.
Any suggestion / pointers would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Rajiv

Fine..... but is there any way to know which encoding has been applied on it ..
Let's say if you create any file on unix-based system in any application, which encoding gets applied there by default ?
This file is basically nothing but an html page created using 'Save As' from the browser.
The person who has created the file is a non-technical .. and won't know much about this all stuff... encoding etc.

Adding users with special characters results in error

Hi all,
I know it is not best practice to implement a Active Directory with user names containing special characters.
Unfortunately, we come across some sites that do have these special characters in their user names.
So, maybe it is a reason to tell the customer to reevaluate their naming policy, but in some cases this is
just not possible / desirable. What we see when you try to add a user in the Sun VDI portal (1801) with
a special character in his or her name, the VDI Portal goes back to the main login screen of the portal and
displays an error:
Internal Error Occurred!
You have been logged out because a consistent response could not be guaranteed.
If the error continues to occur, contact your local technical support and provide .....
Does anyone know a workaround / fix for this.
We are running Sun VDI 3.1 Revenue Release.
Kind regards,
Sander

Svanderpost
Open a support call with Sun there is a fix for this issue.

I have an external table that reads from a fixed length file. The file is expected to contain special characters. In my case the word containing special character is "Göteborg". Because "ö" is a special character, looks like Oracle is considering it as 2 bytes. That causes the trouble. The subsequent fields in the files get shifted by 1 byte thereby messing up the data. Has anyone faced the issue before. So far we have tried the following solution:
Changed the value of NLS_LANG to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
Tried Setting the Database Character set to UTF-8
Tried changing the NLS_LENGTH_SYMMANTIC to CHAR instead of BYTE using ALTER SYSTEM
Tried changing the External table characterset to: AL32UTF8
Tried changing the External table characterset to: UTF-8
Nothing works. Other details include:
• File is UTF-8 encoded
• Operating System : RHEL
• Database: Oracle 11gR2
Any thing else that I might be missing? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

The data forms part of a major driver table, which I may not be able to provide as per the NDA with my company.
The Script I have shared is standard template for creating external table as part of our applications.
We majorly cater for EU regions with this project.(European Characterset needed to be supported)
