Customised Oracle Application and access to roles - Discoverer 10.1.2.0.2
Hi Gurus!
We are developing a customised Oracle application where we have users and roles...user - role mapping is done in the system administration module of the application.
Now, we are also developing Oracle discoverer reports based on this. Using 10g (10.1.2.0.2) for that.
When I am creating an EUL, I select 'New EUL for Oracle Applications users only' option, but, I do not have any 'FND schema' to specify. That's where I'm stuck up!
I want to give access to the 'roles' in tha same manner as I would give to the 'responsibilities' in Oracle Apps. But, I don't know how to do it here.
Can someone guide me on this?
Thanks and regards,
Aparna
Hi Aparna
If your application is not E-Business Suite you cannot install Discoverer into Apps mode. This mode is reserved for applications which are E-Business Suite, which basically tells Discoverer to use authenticate users using the FND tables owned by the APPLSYS user.
In your case, even though you appear to be using Oracle applications, because you want to take advantage of your roles you will have to install Discoverer into standard mode. As you are creating your EUL you need to uncheck the box which says grant access to PUBLIC and make this a private EUL. Then you will not have the headache of worrying about setting up new users. You simply manage what a role can do (Tools | Privileges) and what a role has access to (Tools | Security).
Now, when any any user connects to Discoverer their role will be evaluated and access will be restricted.
You can do the same thing using a PUBLIC EUL, except you need to reduce what that user can do (Tools | Privileges) to an absolute minimum, and then take control of this using roles. For example, you could have a set of functional roles, one each for say AP, AR, GL and so on, but you could further break this down by privilege, thus you could have roles called AP Viewer, AP User, AR Viewer, AR User and so on. The User roles would have full access while the Viewer roles would have a much reduced set of privileges.
You are basically setting up the Library approach that I discuss in my Discoverer 10g Handbook and in my white paper which you will find on my downloads page here: http://learndiscoverer.com/downloads/downloads.htm.
I hope this helps
Best wishes

It would appear that you posted the same question on the Discoverer forum. Here is the answer that I posted there:

Oracle Identity and Access Management Suite Plus Integration with Oracle ADF
Hi All,
Kindly advice if Oracle Identity and Access Management Suite Plus can be integrated with Oracle ADF based applications to manage the end-to-end lifecycle of user accounts specifically addressing to roles/priviledges and security.
Request you to share links to documentation where I can study the steps to integrate both the frameworks.
Looking forward to hear from you soon.

Oracle applications and xserver
Oracle apps dbas,
When I tried o view the graphics in workflow manage on OAM, always got the error:
"BIB-7000 Cannot access X Server".
I found the metalink note: Note:351839.1 to explain the cause.
But still a little bit confused about the Oracle Application and the xserver.
How can I know the xserver is running on which machine?
How can I know that every user can establish a xsession to access the server?
Currently, I set the display on the box to my local computer.
Is there any good documents to explain the xserver mechanism?
Thanks,
LilyThanks, hsawwan and samx18.
We use VNC. I found another good metalink noteL Subject: Configuring VNC Or XVFB As The X Server For Applications 11i
Doc ID: Note:181244.1
Thanks,

Awaiting for best possible solution.
Thanks in advance.

What is difference between Oracle Identity and Access Management (11.1.1.3.0) and Identity Management (11.1.1.3.0) ?
From
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/oid-11g-161194.htmlWhen you run the config, you are asked to add some product. Have checked the "Oracle Access Manager with Database Policy Store" product?
If not, you can add it by extending the domain. Once done you have to start two WLS servers (AdminServer and oam_server1):
Start AdminServer with $DOMAIN/bin/startWebLogic.sh
Start oam_server1 with $DOMAIN/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh oam_server1
It might be that oam_server1 asks for username and password. This is fine for the first time. During the first start the necessary directory structure is created. Once it came up and enters RUNNING state, kill it and create a file boot.properties in $DOMAIN/servers/oam_server1/security with the entries username=name and password=pw in two lines and start oam_server1 again.
Starting oam_server1 is recommend to get proper values in the oamconsole.

Sizing of Oracle IdentityManager and Access Manager on same Weblogic Server
Hi ,
We are planning to deploy Oracle Identity Manager and Access Manager on the same weblogic server in different domains.We have user base of 25000 users.
We can propose two different weblogic servers for OIM and OAM ?
Please let me know the best hardware and software requirements for this installation.
Thanks,
RBMHere is sizing guide for Oracle Identity Manager
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/id-mgmt/oim11g-sizingguide-194346.pdf
You can use it as a guideline, and it refers to 25000 users similar to your requirement. There are other factors also consider like, failover, performance etc. Feel free to reach out if you need more info [email protected] -
Registering Web Applications and accessing common files
If I create 3 web applications and have a seperate folder for common jsps
that the jsps in these 3 web apps include, how can I access the jsps and js
in this common folder? The JSP compiler was able to compile. The folders I
created are all under the applications directory, including the common
folder. I use the inclide file directive with ../common/scripts.js and the
compiler could not recognize the location.
Thanks!
Kenny
If you application folder like:
application/
webApp1/
webApp2/
webApp3/
common/
You may try /common/scripts.js

Oracle applications and C#
Hi Gurus,
Iam building an application in C# which connects to oracle apps DB and does some operations. My concern is that
the application works fine with apps user since it access the apps table. But i dont want to use apps user.
In a typical production scenario, nobody will give apps user and pwd, so the application cannot be used in
the production.
Is there a work around for this ?
Thanks,
SathishHi Srini,
Thanks for the reply.
I could think of that, but again it is cumbersome to give access to all tables and API's that iam using. And i never know what are the tables in turn the API's access.
So obviously we need to provide ALL access to apps tables for the custom account which is not possible in the production.
Is there anyway we can initialize the apps ?? or any API available?
Thanks,
Sathish -
Problem with applications and accessing database
Hi
I have a serious problem with my applications.I was trying to change "users"'s folder icon so I changed the setting in information.I don'y know what I did but It made these problems:
many of applications does not open for example
itunes-->The folder "iTunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have permission...
picasa alerts me with a database error
yahoo messenger just pops up once and doesn't open.
firefox the same problem
net monitor alerts with a database problem.
evernote same problem
all of my address book is erased.
I think somehow I removed the db files or I changed the permission and the programs can not access to their db files.don't know the last thing I have done was trying to change the icon and after that I found out about the problem.Maybe sth else caused the problem . anyway I copied all of my files to a new user and I removed the user with problems & everything is ok here.thank u all.

How to add a CSV file to a desktop application and access it?
I'm writing a desktop application for looking up phone numbers (this numbers are stored in a .CSV file). Where should I put the file in the project and how to access it? I intend to put it in the project and open it in a buffered reader!
Thanks!The best place to put application data is probably user.home, as described in the [Store Application Settings and Components|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2305] post at SDNShare.
If those listings are still messed up, try these alternate renderings of [AppStore.java|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/test%2FAppStore.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0] & [AppStoreDemo.java|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/test%2FAppStoreDemo.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. -
Oracle Portal and access data from OID
I was trying to do the employee search on Portal. I need to enter firstname or lastname of an employee and click search button and it display employee details
These are the steps I followed
I created a database provider "Portal1" using the schema Portal
Then I created a dynamic page using that provider
This is the code I have in the dynamic page
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Example</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H2>Example of A Dynamic Page</H2>
<ORACLE>SELECT * FROM PORTAL.WWSEC_PERSON
</ORACLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Dynamic page was created successfully.
This is my intention. Create a dynamic page and run it as a portlet and publish it in the portal repository. Then use that portlet as any other portlet on the page.
I assume if I use a bind variable in the sql, I'll be able to pass the parameter (lastname/firstname) from the page and display the employee details on the page.
This is my problem. When I tried to run the dynamic page as portlet, I am getting the following error. Please advise if I am doing something wrong or is there any other way to access emplyee details
INTERNAL ERROR
"Failed to parse the query, ORA -00942 table or view does not exist
Failed to parse as PORTAL_PUBLIC - SELECT * FROM PORTAL.WWSEC_PERSON$
The preference path does not exist - ORACLE.WEBVIEW.PARAMETERS
