Customizing Prompts

I need to display a report, where it gets the current date as a prompt. But the data it interprets are like weekly basis.
For example, if the current date is 09th May 2011. The report should get the immediate last saturday (07th May) as the current week. and i need to display the data for previous weeks too. the dates to be displayed for the weeks should be a saturday.
How can i get it done?
For getting the dates of the previous week, do i need to negate 7 from the current week(07th May)?
or
Do i need to choose the start and end dates of a week (if the above is not feasible) to reduce the complexity?

Hi.
Do you have a calendar table in your universe? We do similar weekly reporting, and in the Dates hierarchy, we have a week with week start date (Saturday), week end date (Friday), week number etc.
This means we can produce reports as a crosstab week by week and the prompts are just to select the range of dates.
For automation, you can use the current date attribute in Business Objects to compare with week start date or week end date as appropriate - for example, to pick up completed weeks, you would pick where week end date < today. No prompts needed!
Of course, you can use a prompted date similarly.

CUE 7.0 Custom Prompts - Limit with Prompt Management

Hi All,
I seem to be having a problem when using prompt management to create custom prompts. I am running CUE 7.0.2, and according to the table here
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity_exp/rel7_0/rel_notes/rel_notes.html#wp221528 I should have 250mins of custom prompts, regardless of each individual prompts length.
The problem exists however that when my users record the custom prompts, some are > 2mins, and prompt management cuts them off from recording.
I assume maybe that while you can upload a prompt > 2mins, you can't record one via prompt management? Has anyone else come across this problem?

Hi Matthew,
Recording an Auto-Attendant Greeting or Prompt File
Two methods are available to create auto-attendant greeting and prompt files:
• Create a .wav file with the following format: G.711 u-law, 8 kHz, 8 bit, Mono. The file cannot be
larger than 1 MB (about 2 minutes). After recording the greeting, use the GUI option Voice Mail >
Prompts > Upload or Cisco Unity Express CLI ccn copy command to copy the file in to the
Cisco Unity Express system. See the GUI online help (OLH) or the Cisco Unity Express VoiceMail
and Auto Attendant CLI Administrator Guide for 3.0 and Later Versions for the upload procedure.
• Use the AvT on the TUI to record the greeting or prompt. Dial the AvT telephone number and select
the option to record a greeting. When finished recording, save the file. AvT automatically saves the
file in Cisco Unity Express.
The AvT prompt filename has the format UserPrompt_DateTime.wav, for example:
UserPrompt_11152003144055.wav. You may want to use CLI commands or GUI options to rename
the file with a meaningful name.
Cisco recommends using the AvT on the TUI to record greetings and prompts because the AvT
provides higher sound quality compared to .wav files recorded using other methods.

[SOLVED]Bash cli input truncated after customizing prompt with colors

Here is my customized prompt (two lines) in ~/.bashrc (colors defined):
PS1="${CYAN}┌─${NC}\u@\h ${LIGHTBLUE}\w${NC}\n${CYAN}└─{${NC}\@${CYAN}}──${LIGHTCYAN}>${NC} "
It looks like this:
┌─ssri@host ~/Projects/cairo-dock
└─{10:26 AM}──>
Now, when I have a long entry (removing multiple packages, ie pacman removal of cairo-dock-bzr & cairo-dock-plugins-bzr), the input entry does not extend to the edge of my konsole window (80x33). Insteads it stops halfway and continues onto the second line. Since this prompt takes up two lines, the second line portion of the prompt is now overrunned and the entry is considerably garbled:
┌─ssri@host ~/Projects/cairo-dock
-plugins-bzr ─> pacman -R cairo-dock-bzr cairo-dock-
I'm wondering how I can extend keyboard entries towards 80 columns(?) and allow extended entries to continue onto a third line (rather than the second).
Thanks

Custom Prompts Dialog

We are running BOXI 3.1 SP3 Java, and we have an application that includes the Analytical Reporting and OpenDoc war files to display webi reports in our own portal. We would like to customize the prompts dialog to do advanced date handling and more powerfull cascading prompts.
Is there a way to replace the existing prompt dialog with our own page using Extension Points? We don't need to change any other part of the webi report viewer, so I really don't want to have to create a full SDK solution for viewing reports. Plus it would be nice to not have to hack the Analytical Reporting code so when new service packs come out we can upgrade without having to worry about our changes. Has anyone done this?
Thanks
Tim

Yeah, I know that using Extension Points is not supported unless you are a SAP Partner. However, it makes more sense to use extension points then to try to hack the webi code. Completely re-writing our own version of the interactive viewer seems to be extreme overkill just so we can have custom prompt handling. I really got my hopes up when I started reading about Extension Points as they seem the perfect way to handle this type of task. Simply write a new module for just the functionality you need and plug it in. Too bad it doesn't seem to be anything but a hobby side project for SAP.
Does anyone know if Extension Points will be upgraded with the new version of BO due out next quarter?

Custom Prompt sometimes shows wrong Machine Name

I set up a custom command prompt in my .bash_profile to show the machine name. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
The command:
export PS1='\[\033[0;32m\]\h \W\$ \[\033[0m\]'
Sometimes it shows
lud610wxp-sales rfreedman$
Sometimes it shows
qaimac rfreedman$
This is correct
I see the same behavior on other systems although the wrong machine name is different.

If you're on a network, the hostname for the prompt is set by performing a reverse DNS lookup of your IP address. Often an old entry will be listed in the reverse DNS table before the current one, and its name will be used instead of the correct one. You can manually edit /etc/hostconfig if this bothers you, but it generally does not affect anything because forward DNS queries will be correct.

Custom Prompts with manual input for filtering

Hi,
In Bex I need a user prompt which can accept only 1 of 3 possible manual input values:
   Flash
   Actual
   blank
If the input value is Flash, then filter Version = 'ZFL'
If the input value is Actual, then filter Version = '#'
If the input value is blank, then filter Version = 'XYZ'   (goal here is to filter out all values)
Can this be done via Replacement Path processing, or should it be via CMOD assuming that's possible?
Thanks in advance!

Hi ,
If Flash ,Actual ,blank are one info object values
then create a charecterstic variable with user entry default with Single value then automatically it takes only one value.after this restrict flash with ZFL,version with # & blank withXYZ.
If Flash ,Actual ,blank are not one info object values u will go for customer exit.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Custom Prompt to Require Upgrade to Acrobat 9

I have a Acrobat 9 PDF that has Flash Multimedia Elements and I want to require that users with Acrobat 8 or lower to upgrade to Acrobat 9.
I would like to be able to customize/modify this error prompt:
"This file appears to use a new format that this version of Acrobat does not
support. It may not open or display correctly. Adobe recommends that you upgrade to the
latest version of Acrobat products. Please visit our products site at
http://www.adobe.com/acrobat."
Is this possible to do with the SDK?

You can't customize that message, but you could put up your own via JavaScript at the document level of the PDF.

Upload custom prompt to spa9000

hi, i've a spa9000 problem.
in the wizard version 2.1 i changed the auto-attendant prompt but after reboot in the ivr menu there are the default prompt..
my prompt have the same caratheristic of default voice but wizard do not upload ..
i've try to change it with tftp but still no working..
help me please..

I think either the set up for the AA scripting via the wizard is having some problems loading it in the SPA9000 or the recording for the AA prompt is corrupted. I suggest not relying on the wizard and instead doing the AA scripting manually. Use the Auto-Attendant Quick Install Guide to do this found on this link:

Custom device prompt in Ciscoworks LMS

Hello,
In emerging network infrastructure of our client we decided to use some custom promps at device VTY (SSH and Telnet). Console users are network authenticated by means of ACS, and in case ACS is not reachable, we decided to use login prompts as follows:
Username(local):
Password(local):
In this local mode, when CiscoWorks LMS (3.1) tries to collect configuration of switches, VLAN configuration exactly, we got such error messages in LMS interface:
TELNET: Failed to establish TELNET connection to 10.52.0.1 - Cause: Authentication failed on device 3 times. VLAN Config fetch is not supported using TFTP. Command failed VLAN Config fetch is not supported using RCP.
Of course, we have checked the possibility to got from LMS host to these devices by SSH and Telnet, credentials are correct, only login prompts are as described earlier.
I conclude, we need to tell LMS to accept our custom prompts. Is there any possibility and how to achieve this?

If you're sure the failure is due to the custom prompt, yes, you can simply follow the steps in the following document to let LMS know about that:

Custom class for playing system prompts

Hi,
I wanted to know is there any class file to play the system prompts from the user folder . Is there any reference or sample file to develop custom prompts.
Best Regards
Vinay

None of the available releases allow you to mess with the system prompts folder. In every scenario I can think of it is possible to modify your script to manually choose user repo prompts instead of the system repo file; it just takes more effort.
Is there a specific task that you're trying to accomplish? We can talk out what extra code you need to make it pull from the user repo.

Custom AA Prompts Missing in CCA but exists in CUE Greeting Management

I just recorded a new greeting using a phone with the CUE Greeting Management tool. After recording, I go into CCA and configure the auto attendant. On the Prompt Management tab, the newly recorded prompt is missing. However, if I go back to the CUE Greeting Management with the phone, I can hear the new prompt -- it exists.
Under Monitor -> Voice Mail Status -> Others ccn Prompts, I see the following:
Name:                         UserPrompt_07142012110809.wav

Last Modified Date:           Sat Jul 14 11:08:09 CDT 2012
Length in Bytes:              270138
But this is not shown in the AA Prompt Management tab or in the drop down selection for AA assignment.
I successfully added a custom prompt previously and it shows in CCA. The following attempts to add custom prompts result in the file not being show in the CCA tool.
This is on a new UC540, Software pack 8.6, and CCA 3.2.1. It has been managed entirely in CCA, no CLI configuration.
Anyone know what might cause the new prompt to not show in CCA or how to make the prompt show in CCA?   I'd be grateful for any advice or guidance in resolving this odd quirk.
Thanks!
Robert

Hi David:
Indeed, I did try to restart CCA. I also tried CCA from a second laptop. I tried to restart CUE. I even went as far as doing a full restart of the UC540. The new custom prompts refused to show. I finally gave up, went to dinner and when I returned, it was there. I have yet to determine what caused the behavior.

How to use QAAWS with a prompt to show ALL values

I have to build a dashboard which has two prompts in it
One for Customer and the other one is Project
Customer prompt should let user to select a customer from the list to display dashboard with the selected customer.Also it should allow user to select ALL from the prompt values to display all customers
There is a object defined in the universe for 'ALL' to use in Web Intelligence report. But for dashboard I don't want to use LiveOffice as it is having many issues when refreshing
I am thinking to use QAAWS as my dashboard is not that complex. It shows all details in spread sheets
How to work in this situation with QAAWS..does not it need to create new objects in the universe or modify exisiting 'ALL' object lovs
Please let me know the easiest way to achieve this

Hi,
I think you can achieve in two ways ...
1. In the QaWS, you've Prompt Parameters next to the prompt, choose "Optional Prompt"; When user runs the report if they kept the selection blank, report runs for ALL
2. In the QaWS, in the Prompt choos "Matches Pattern", and in the Xcelsius dashboard pass "%%" to the selection, and in the selection list for the customer dropdown include one additional cell containing ALL text;
Hope it helps,

How to set up iPhone 5 iOS 6 email with IMAP over SSL on a custom port?

Basically I have the same problem as this guy 5 years ago but the thread contained no useful answer. Maybe there are people out there who became smarter in the meantime? Please help me out how to get my iPhone read emails via IMAP over SSL on a custom port to the corporate server. The issue is that the iPhone only seems to work if you use the standard 993 port for IMAPS, not with a custom port as we have. I've installed the corporate root certificate in a profile, and it shows up as trusted and verified in the phone, so that should not be the issue. The mail app in the iPhone tries to connect, I can verify that from the server, but then does nothing, doesn't try to authenticate, doesn't log out, nothing is going on, and then drops the connection after 60 seconds. Repeats this every 5 minutes (as set to fetch e-mail every 5 minutes.)
Original thread 5 years ago: https://discussions.apple.com/message/8104869#8104869

Solved it by some (a lot) of fiddling.
Turns out it's not a bug in the iPhone, it's a feature.
Here's how to make it work.
DOVECOT
If the IMAPS port is anything other than 933 (the traditional IMAPS port) the iPhone's Mail App takes the "Use SSL" setting on the IMAP server as 'TLS', meaning it starts the communication in plain text and then issues (tries to issue) the STARTTLS command to switch the connection to encrypted. If, however, Dovecot is set up to start right away in encrypted mode, the two cannot talk to each other. For whatever reason neither the server nor the client realizes the connection is broken and only a timeout ends their misery.
More explanation about SSL/TLS in the Dovecot wiki: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL
So to make this work, you have to set Dovecot the following way. (Fyi, I run Dovecot 2.0.19, versions 1.* have a somewhat different config parameters list.)
1. In the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf file make sure you specify the inet_listener imap and disable (set its port to 0) for imaps like this:
service imap-login {
inet_listener imap {
    port = --your port # here--
inet_listener imaps {
    port = 0
    ssl = yes
This of course enables unencrypted imap for all hackers of the universe so you quickly need to also do the things below.
2. In the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf file, make sure you set (uncomment) the following:
ssl = required
This sets Dovecot to only serve content to the client after a STARTTLS command was issued and the connection is already encrypted.
3. In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf set
disable_plaintext_auth = yes
This prevents plain text password authentication before encryption (TLS) is turned on. If you have also set ssl=required as per step 2, that will prevent all other kinds of authentications too on an unencrypted connection.
When debugging this, please note that if you connect from localhost (the same machine the server runs on) disable_plaintext_auth=yes has no effect, as localhost is considered secure. You have to connect from a remote machine to make sure plain text authentication is disabled.
Don't forget service dovecot restart.
To test if your setup works as it's supposed to, issue the following (green) from a remote machine (not localhost) (I'm using Ubuntu, but telnet and openssl is available for almost all platforms) and make sure Dovecot responds with something like below (purple):
telnet your.host.name.here yourimapsportnumber
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED] Dovecot ready.
Most importantly, make sure you see 'STARTTLS' and 'LOGINDISABLED'. Then issue STARTTLS and hopefully you see something like this:
a STARTTLS
a OK Begin TLS negotiation now.
(The 'a' in front of STARTTLS is not a typo, a prefix is required by the IMAP server in front of all commands.)
Close the telnet (with 'a logout' or Ctrl+C) and you can use openssl to further investigate as you would otherwise; at the end of a lot of output including the certificate chain you should see a line similar to the one below:
openssl s_client -starttls imap -connect your.domain.name.here:yourimapsportnumber
. OK Pre-login capabilities listed, post-login capabilities have more.
You can then use the capability command to look for what authentication methods are available, if you see AUTH=PLAIN, you can then issue a login command (it's already under an encrypted connection), and if it's successful ("a OK Logged in"), then most likely your iPhone will be able to connect to Dovecot as well.
a capability
* CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN
a login username password
* CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS
a OK Logged in
POSTFIX
Likewise, you have to set Postfix to wait for STARTTLS before encrypting the communication.
1. You have to delete the setting smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes from /etc/postfix/master.cf and/or /etc/postfix/main.cf, if it was enabled. This will mean Outlook won't be able to connect any more because it requires a TSL connection without issuing STARTTLS as per Postfix documentation (haven't tested.) In my case we don't use Outlook so I didn't care. Outlook + iPhone + custom SMTPS port are simply not possible together at the same time as far as I understand. Pick one to sacrifice.
2. Require encrypted (TLS) mode for any data transfer in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_tls_security_level = encrypt
3. Authentication should only happen while already in encrypted (TLS) mode, so set in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
Don't forget postfix reload.
To test if this works, issue the following telnet and wait for the server's greeting:
telnet your.host.name.here yoursmtpsportnumber
220 your.host.name ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu)
Then type in the EHLO and make sure the list of options contains STARTTLS and does not include an AUTH line (that would mean unencrypted authentication is available):
ehlo your.host.name.here
250-STARTTLS
Then issue starttls and wait for the server's confirmation:
starttls
220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS
Once again, it's time to use openssl for further testing, detailed info here http://qmail.jms1.net/test-auth.shtml
CERTIFICATES
You also need to be aware that iOS is somewhat particular when it comes to certificates. First of all, you have to make sure to set the following extensions on your root certificate (probably in the [ v3_ca ] section in your /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf, depending on your openssl setup), especially the 'critical' keyword:
basicConstraints = critical,CA:true
keyUsage = critical, cRLSign, keyCertSign
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid:always,issuer:always
And then on the certificate you sign for your mail server, set the following, probably in the [ usr_cert ] section of /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf:
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
subjectAltName = DNS:your.domain.name.here
issuerAltName=issuer:copy
Please note, the above are results of extensive google-ing and trial and error, so maybe you can omit some of the stuff above and it still works. When it started working for me, I stopped experimenting because figuring this all out already took way too much time. The iPhone is horribly undocumented when it comes to details of its peculiar behaviors. If you experiment more and have more accurate information, please feel free to post here as a reply to this message.
You have to import your root certificate into your iPhone embedded in a profile via the iPhone Configuration Utility (free, but only available in Windows or a Mac; details here: http://nat.guyton.net/2012/01/20/adding-trusted-root-certificate-authorities-to- ios-ipad-iphone/ ), after having first added it to Windows' certificate store as a trusted root certificate. This way the Utility will sign your certificate for the phone and it becomes usable; if you just add it from the phone it will be there but won't be used. Using a profile has the added benefit of being able to configure mail settings in it too, and that saves a lot of time when you have to install, remove, reconfigure, install again, etc. a million times until it works.
Another undocumented constraint is that the key size is limited to a max of 4096. You can actually install a root certificate with a larger key, the iPhone Configuration Utility will do that for you without a word. The only suspicious thing is that on the confirmation screen shown on your iPhone when you install the profile you don't get the text "Root Certificate/ Installing the certificate will add it to the list of trusted certificates on your iPhone" in addition to your own custom prompt set up in the iPhone Configuration Utility. The missing additional text is your sign of trouble! - but how would know that before you saw it working once? In any case, if you force the big key certificate on the device, then when you open the Mail App, it opens up and then crashes immediately. Again, without a word. Supposedly Apple implemented this limit on the request of the US Government, read more here if you're interested: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/kamtec1/archive/2012/10/13/limitation-of-appl e-devices-iphone-ipad-etc-on-rsa-key-size-bit.aspx .
IN CLOSING...
With all this, you can read and send email from your iPhone.
Don't forget to set all your other clients (Thunderbird, Claws, etc.) to also use STARTTLS instead of SSL, otherwise they won't be able to connect after the changes above.
