CSS Acts in different ways according to the logged in user.

Hi All,
I have used CSS within my Master Page i.e. Oslo. I have changed the SharePoint 2013s' default Start.aspx file as the new Sites' home page. I also used this CSS code snippet for creating a web menu because SharePoint's default navigation is rather odd.
However the menu within the master page was a success and I created several pages using the master page and each new page contains the CSS custom made web menu without any error.
But when I logged using a different Farm Admin Account the CSS menu changes to a somewhat else. But when I logged in using the built in Administrator account the menu is displayed as it should be. But when I logged in as a different Farm Admin the menu is
not showing as it should be. I have tried inserting the CSS directly to the Master Page and from the Style Library. Both ways are Ok with the built-in Administrator. But when I logged in using another Farm admin the use of Style Library was a useless thing
and the direct code input method is was the only success one. The style library has all the permission for all users.
The source code is at the below.

Thank You,

I haven't seen this issue before. What I would do is, log in as each user then view the source of the page in the browser (right click the page and click "View Page Source" from the context menu, or use developer tools/firebug in the browser). Compare
the HTML generated for the menu for each user and see if any other CSS classes get applied. My gut is that another class is being applied for the other users, or the HTML is different in some way.

Show different dropdownlists according to the selected value

Hi All,
I need pop up a different dropdownlist according to the selected item in one dropdownlist.
.e.g. if I select state in one dropdownlist, another dropdownlist contains all the states will show up beside it.
Any one can help me?
Thanks a lot

There are two ways of doing it. Both involve javascript
1 - capture the onchange event of the first dropdown. Submit the page, and reload it with the correct values for the second dropdown list
2 - If there aren't that many different options, you can download all the different option lists into your page. Capture the onchange event of the first dropdown, and then use javascript to set the values in the second dropdown box.
Both have pros and cons. The first option requires a page refresh. The second one requires that you download all possible options to the page.
Good luck,

Challenge: Different ways to crash the JVM.

This is a challenge to find different ways to crash the JVM with code written in Java.
For starters: Mis-use of the Unsafe class.
Field field = Unsafe.class.getDeclaredField("theUnsafe");
field.setAccessible(true);
Unsafe unsafe = (Unsafe) field.get(null);
unsafe.getObject(null, 0L); // or many variations on methods in this class.

Although I presume you mean the latest JVM (6u11), I can reproduce a crash with 1.5.0_05 fairly frequently using the SQL tool "squirrel" ( [http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/]) during startup (while the splash screen is visible):
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xb7a02c41, pid=9019, tid=2651868080
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (1.5.0_05-b05 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# V [libjvm.so+0x39ec41]The crash is not reproducible on 6u10 (haven't tried it with 6u11), so I don't know how relevant this tidbit actually is but would be glad to check into it with a few other JVMs. For what it's worth, the above happens on RH Enterprise Linux (2.6.9 kernel, smt, Xeon CPU).

The connections which you have done are right, Here are some settings which you can set on your computer and check if this solves your problem or not.
Win XP: Click on the Start button >>> go to RUN>> type in "ncpa.cpl"- hit OK >>Here(Network Connections) right click on the ""Local Area Connection"" icon and select properties-Here click on the "Configure"   jaspal button- Click on the "Advanced" tab- In the "Property" box highlight Link speed and duplex/Connection type/Network or Media type- And in the "Value" box select 10 Mbps half duplex/ 10 base T/10 base half mode and click on OK.
If still you face the same problem, then i feel it might be the problem with the Switch itself.

What are the different ways in accessing the SQL server from NWDS ?

Write a SELECT statement in different ways is not the same thing!!!

Let's take a look
use AdventureWorks2012
go
dbcc freeproccache
go
and now select something
select * from [HumanResources].[vEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
so, analyzing 'Compiled Plan'
SELECT usecounts, cacheobjtype, objtype, text
FROM Sys.dm_exec_cached_plans
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(plan_handle)
where cacheobjtype = 'Compiled Plan'
ORDER BY usecounts DESC;
GO
and now let's write some SELECT in "fuzzy case"
dbcc freeproccache
go
select * from [HUMANResources].[vEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
select * from [HumanRESOURCES].[vEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
select * from [HumanResources].[VEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
select * from [HumanResources].[vEmployeeDEPARTMENTHistory]
go
select * from [HumanResources].[vEmployeeDepartmentHISTORY]
go
SELECT * from [HumanResources].[vEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
select * FROM [HumanResources].[vEmployeeDepartmentHistory]
go
and now let's see compiled plans again
SELECT usecounts, cacheobjtype, objtype, text
FROM Sys.dm_exec_cached_plans
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(plan_handle)
where cacheobjtype = 'Compiled Plan'
ORDER BY usecounts DESC;
GO
So, write a SELECT statement in different ways is not the same thing!!!
Hope it'll be useful
P.Ceglie

Yes. There is little or no query normalization that happens in front of the query plan cache. It would be a performance tradeoff to parse and normalize the query before matching it to the cached plans. The benefit of reducing the number
of plans in the cache probably wouldn't be worth it.

Best way to find the Customer of the logged in user

Background: We're a tool provider. When our users grant the tool oauth access to their accounts, we need to get the customer ID and name as well as a list of accounts under the customer.
What is not clear to us is how best to get the Customer name. It seems we need to make 2 requests; the first one is to use
GetUserRequest to get the logged in user details, and then use the username as a filter with a
SearchCustomersRequest call.
The GetUserRequest returns the customer ID but not the name. Hence, the need to use SearchCustomersRequest.
We can't use GetCustomersInfoRequest because it requires us to provide a
CustomerNameFilter which we obviously don't have.
Is the above correct? Have we missed something anywhere?

Yes you will need at least 2 calls e.g. GetUser -> SearchCustomers or
GetUser -> SearchAccounts -> GetCustomer. Do any agencies use your tool? Keep in mind that an agency user cannot access the full client Customer details, i.e. in the same way that GetCustomer(clientCustomerId) will return a code 1001
permissions error, SearchCustomers won't return the client's Customer object. This is by design since linking a client account to an agency only grants account level access - not customer level access. To ensure you get a full list of all accounts that a user
can access (whether or not agency), please consider the GetUser -> SearchAccounts -> GetCustomer call pattern. For a related code example, see
Search Customers by User in C#.
I hope this helps! Please reach out with any further related questions or concerns.

Is there any way to disable the log-in process?

i have no need to re-enter my password to access my computer every time i restart, or after it falls asleep
is there a way to disable the log-in screen and just go straight to my desktop?
edit: i tried preferences > security/privacy > de-select "require password"
but i still get the log-in screen
thanks

Hi,
take a look at:
Preferences
Users & Groups
Login Options
At the top you can (de-) activate the automatic login.
Does it work for you?

Does anyone know a way to replicate the SAPSID adm user ?

We are trying to consult to one of our clients that using SAP/r3 with Oracle 10.2 DB.
The client has a team of 4 DBAs, and the entire team members are using the username <SAPSID>adm in order to login to the DB and conduct changes and other operations.
We believe this is the wrong way to handle the login authorizations, and we think that each DBA has to have his own user name in order to enable audit trail. The client's IT team manager claims they don't know how to create personal user names with the authorization level of the <SAPSID>adm, and they must use this user name for their needs and operations.
Does anyone know a way to replicate the <SAPSID>adm user authorizations to some other DB admin user name so they will enable audit trail for each team member?

Hello,
You can create any number of users have authorizations similar to sidadm user but I don't think it will serve the purpose because of the way the things are designed to be maintained in SAP.
However, you can utilize an alternative. Create individual OS IDs for each person who has to log on to OS. Assign 'sudo' access to these individual IDs to logon to 'sidadm' and 'orasid'.
Thanks

How can I know the security role of the logged in user

When you design an enterprise bean or Web component, you should always think about the kinds of users who will access the component. For example, an Account enterprise bean might be accessed by customers, bank tellers, and branch managers. Each of these user categories is called a security role, an abstract logical grouping of users that is defined by the person who assembles the application. When an application is deployed, the deployer will map the roles to security identities in the operational environment.
But wondering when I log into my application with some user name and password (specified in my Oracle database),wondering how this works with the security role I created .How does J2EE know the security role of the logged in user.
Thanks
Manohar

shet wrote:
role at run time.
When I login say as "manju" and password as "money" then how does it know that this user belongs to this security role.Is that the j2ee administrator has to say that user manju has this this security role.Programmitically how does it really work.I am confusedThe j2ee implementation assigns the roles using the JAAS module you have configured for your application on your application server. different JAAS modules get roles in different ways. many allow a single static role to be assigned using a config file. if using a database, often there will be configuration to specify additional database fields which specify the role for a given username.
At runtime, a developer can test roles using methods like EJBContext.isCallerInRole().

Programatically Check if the logged in user is in the Administrators group in Project Server (C#, VS2010)

Hi I would like to be able to check if the logged in user is a member of the administrator group programatically through c#
I know that I can get the user's GUID / check if they are actually a user in project server (resource table in reporting DB) but I am having trouble finding out how to programatically check if they are a member of the "Administrators" group.
Could somebody please provide a code sample of how to check if a user is in the administrators group when you have their GUID or username or name?
I did not see a table in the reporting DB that has this so I am guessing this has to be done through the PSI..
Thanks in advance!
BTW.. i am just wondering is there a way to check each groups permission levels? was wondering that if it is possible, what is the best way to implement a similar security model to that of the actual project server 2010

hi Amit :) I ended up finding the answer myself before you posted here but thank you for your reply anyways, it is basically the same thing that I did.
This is what I ended up doing :) Basically I have three different types of users configured in my web.config - admins, readwrite users, and read only users. In my code here I loop through and find out who the person is. Based on what group they are in I
can later show/hide different options in my application :)

Dashboard based on Crystal Report's Latest instances for the logged in user

Hi,
I am trying design a dashboard based on LiveOffice-crystal report's latest instance for the logged in user. Also there is row level security in the universe on which the crystal reports is created.
In the live office connection i have selected 'latest instance by current user' in the refresh option and published the dashboard to InfoView.
when i open the dashboard in InfoView , i find the row level restrictions being applied for different users. But the data retrived is always on-demand data and not based on the latest instance of the logged in users.
Can anyone throw some light on this issue.
Thanks

Remote control kicks you out when trying to change the logged in user by clicking on the red N

I'm running Zen 6.5 with the latest updates and the latest agents... I can
successfully remote control a workstation through ConsoleOne but I have 2
issues:
1. If I'm in the middle of a remote session and I right click on the red
N icon and change the user, it kicks me out and says "operation is
currently disabled for the logged in user".
2. Whenever I log in it changes the desktop background to blank (it's
actually a blue background) and it doesn't change it back after I close
the remote session. If I physically go that workstation and logout and
log back in, it still keeps that same blue background.

Determine the role of the logged in User

Dear experts,
I am working on SRM 7.0 version, I want to determine wether the logged in user is an approver, buyer or a general user ( Role determination ). Can you please suggest a way for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Murthy

Hello Murthy,
What about simply use function module BBP_USER_GET_DETAIL with importing parameter USERNAME = SY-UNAME ?
You will get all user's roles in table ACTIVITYGROUPS.

Programatically Check if the logged in user matches with user in a list item

Hi All,
I have a custom list with 1) title column 2) People column.
I simple need to check if the logged in user = user in the column 2, and if yes fill a List<> with column 1 value.
But when comparing, the value in list item is in different format than what we get by user.ToString()
Following is what I tried:
SPUser user = oWeb.CurrentUser;
List<String> usergrps = new List<String>();
foreach (SPListItem itemA in GrpSubsItems)
if (itemA["SubscribedBy"].ToString() == user.ToString())
usergrps.Add(itemA["Group"].ToString());
itemA["SubscribedBy"].ToString() gives = 10;#Some Name
where as user.ToString() gives = i:0#.w|domain\user
Kindly guide if my approach is not correct. Thanks.

SPUser user = oWeb.CurrentUser;
List<string> usergrps = new List<string>();
foreach (SPListItem itemA in GrpSubsItems)
string userName = itemA["SubscribedBy"] as string;
SPFieldUserValue userA = new SPFieldUserValue(itemA.ParentList.ParentWeb, userName);
if (userA.LoginName==user.LoginName)
usergrps.Add(itemA["Group"].ToString());
