DATABASE LOGON SCREEN

Whenever I run the test report and don;t fill in the USERID parameter before I click SUBMIT, the database logon screen appears prompting me to enter the db info..but when I enter the info and click SUBMIT, the same screen keeps reappearing with the fields cleared out...any ideas why this is happening?

THanks for the replies...however, database startup is not the problem since it works for the forms server. It is only in reports that I have this problem. If I enter the db info in the html form, it works fine. But if I dont, the db logon screen appears prompting me to enter the db info and everytime I enter in the info and click RUN FORM, the same db logon screen keeps coming back...any other ideas?

  • Infoview prompts for database logon screen when updating dynamic parameter

    I have already set up initial database ID/PW for the report in CMS, but when I I tried to update my parameter to schedule the report, it is requiring the user to enter database ID/PW again........Is there a way to set this up so that the user can bypass this step since it is quite annoying?
    Thanks.

    Is your lov created Business View Manager? If it is, you can store the userid and password in the data connection your business view is based on.
    1) Start Business View Manager. Close the default screen that appears.
    2) Click View > Repository Explorer on the menu bar.
    3) Expand the Dynamic Cascading Prompts folder. Locate the "Data Connection" for the appropriate dynamic parameter. It will be in the form of <parameter_name>_DC (i.e. it will have the name of the parameter and then '_DC').
    4) Double-click the Data Connection. "Property Browser" will appear.
    5) Type the database user name and password in that Property Browser.
    6) Set the Runtime Prompt to Never Prompt.
    7) Save the changes to the Data Connection.
    The prompt for database logon information will no longer appear when changing parameter values.

  • Infoview prompts for database logon screen when changing dynamic parameter

    did you try selecting use same database credentials database option in CMS? If you are still getting the database prompt then it might be because of dynamic parameters in the report. If you have any dynamic parameters in the report it generates LOV in the repository. So try to open the LOV in Business VIew Manager and check the properties of the LOV and go to corresponding data connection for that LOV and in the properties tab select never prompt instead of always prompt by giving database credentials.

  • The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or inco

    getting below error while opening a report from infoview

    The database logon information for this report is either incomplete or incorrect.
    They can open the same report from crystal designer.We have checked the database and it is pointing to correct one in process->database of CMC.
    They have created the report with windows NT credentials.
    Can any one help in this regard.
    Thanks,

    How did you set up NT auth on the report? With CR Designer I'd assume you are using a trusted connection? Which option did you choose in the CMC for DB credentials? Prompt, same login, or SSO (I don't have the CMC screen in front of me right now so I'm abbreviating the options)?

  • Crystal Report requests Database logon if SAP BW is datasource

    Hi all
    I experience the following:
    1. SSO from SAP Portal to BOE works: I can view Sample Crystal Reports based on the BO-iView-template without additional login
    2. SSO from SAP Portal to SAP BW works: a) I can view custom BW Web queries without additional login and b) the connection tests on the system object in SAP Portal run fine
    3. I assume SSO between BOE and BW works because I can view Xcelsius dashboards based on BW queries within SAP Portal without additional login
    Nevertheless I am presented a login screen ("The report you requested requires further information. -
    Database Logon") if I try to view a crystal report based on a BW query, no matter if I start the report from InfoView, SAPGUI or SAP Portal. If I enter my SAP credentials in "Databse logon"-window I can see the report runs fine.
    SAP Authentication in BOE seems to work (I can import users & roles). In all 3 systems I have at least Admin or equivalent permissions. If I change the Database Configuration for this report within InfoView ("Use SSO") it does make any change (I also read somewhere a reply from I. Hilgefort that this is not necessary if BW publisher service is installed correctly).
    We use SAP BW 701.06, BOE XI31FP3.4 and SAP Portal 701SP6
    I publish the report from Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 with the SAP-Menu -> Save Report.
    I logon to InfoView-App with my SAP-BW credentials.
    Any help appreciated!

    Real solution is different, my other post is only a workaround:
    1. SNC settings in CMC were not correct (Certificate path, path to sapcrypto.dll)
    2. Relevant Serices have to run under local username
    3. Username has to be added to PSE

  • Apex 2.2 - Admin logon screen cannot be displayed

    I have installed Application Express 2.2 into an Oracle 9.2.0.8 database running on a LINUX X86 server but even after following all the relevant documentation for the installation and configuration I am still unable to access the 'apex admin' logon screen. I can find nothing of use in any of the log files as to why this is failing. I can connect OK to the database via SQL*Plus as the APEX_PUBLIC_USER so I know the password is correct.
    Also, if I enter the URL http://host:7777/ this displays the HTTP Server Home Page, from where I can follow the various links.
    If I enter the URL http://host:7777/pls/apex/admin_/ the Gateway Config Menu is displayed and I can see the APEX configuration.
    However, when I enter the URL http:/host:7777/pls/apex/apex_admin/ I just get 'The page cannot be displayed'
    I at a loss to think what I've missed in this configuration?
    I have done a similar install before i.e. Apex 2.2 into a 9.2.0.8 database but on a Windows 2003 server and this all works OK.
    Anyone with a similar experience I would value your input before I loose what remains of my hair.
    Regards
    Neil

    Sunny, Thanks for the input.
    I have already tried the steps you've described without any success. It would appear that the access.log and error.log files are created when the HTTP server is started. However, when I did this and tried the URL nothing was written into either of these logs.
    I don't have a marvel.conf but I have defined the "apex" dad. This is defined in file $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/modplsql/cfg/wdbsrv.app
    I don't have a marvel.conf file either on my Windows server, but Application Express is running OK on this system.
    I have spent many hours comparing the setup of the two servers and have not found any significant differences to explain why one works and the other does not.

  • EP 6.0 SP13: Logon Screen Development: UME accessing

    hi all
      I am new to Portal Development.
      I have been asked to do the follwoing Development:
    Bespoke copy of the standard logon screen with the addition of a new field called Client.
    The <b>Client field will be a pull down</b> and will get it’s values by calling the ABAP function module Z_EP_GET_CLIENT_LIST which runs in the backend ABAP system acting as the UME database for the Portal. This function model will return a list of clients as a table with a field called CLIENT_LIST, which is char(3). The field should be blank at launch time to force the user to select from the pull down and suitable error message should be displayed if the user does not select a client from the pull down list.
    The logon details for calling the function module should be read from the UME parameters – the UME parameters are :-
    ume.r3.connection.master.client          Client
    ume.r3.connection.master.ashost          Server
    ume.r3.connection.master.sysnr          System Number
    ume.r3.connection.master.user          User
    ume.r3.connection.master.password      Password
    Once the user has selected the client and logged on, the system mapping table for that client should be got by calling ABAP function model Z_EP_GET_SYSTEM_MAPPING passing in as a parameter the Client entered by the user. This function model will return the following table called SYSTEM_MAPPING.
    This data should be persisted for the duration of the user logon in memory to avoid subsequent reads on the UMD ABAP system.
    This is my new requirement??? Could anybody Guide me in this Development.
    My Understanding:
      1. Logon Page is: umLogonPage.jsp
    2. PAR file to be downloaded com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.
    Many Thanks

  • On Internet 9i forms asking  Logon screen

    Hi
    If i set my userid , password in the formsweb.config file and run it on intranet then they are working fine but if i try to browse from internet then a logon screen appears asking userid and password for each form although i have already wrote in the formsweb.config file .
    Kindly someone help me.
    Thanks

    Actually, we don't want all users to login as the same user. They will each get several RAD's to different databases with different users. The forms-level security was based on the database user before and we want to keep it like that for now.
    We already created a procedure that retrieves the available RAD's of the logged in user using dbms_ldap. The user can then choose the config (and therefor RAD) he wants to connect with.
    All this seems to work, just the forms logon screen keeps on appearing on startup. Even when we call the application like this, the logon screen is still shown with empty fields:
    https://machine.domain/forms/frmservlet?form=test.fmx&userid=user/pw@db

  • Bypass database logon

    Hi--
    I have a simple form that, when I invoke it from my browser, prompts me to logon to the database first. I have included the connect in my URL: Userid=scott/tiger@mydatabase as I have seen in documentation without success. Isn't there some way of avoiding the logon screen everytime I access this form?
    Thanks in advance.
    Jeff

    Thanks for your response. I tried that without any success. After some additional research-- I am wondering if I have missed a patch. There is a documented but unpublished reference to a bug that causes this issue.

  • Insert Button on SAP GUI Logon Screen

    Hello,
    is it possible to insert a button on the SAP GUI logon screen like the "new password" button?
    We want to insert a button, with which the user can generate a new initial password, if he has forgotten his password.
    Thanks for answers
    regards

    Well, I'd propose to leave the SAPGUI screen untouched but only place a comment on the logon screen (see [note 205487|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/205487]) which informs the user on a URL to a web application (BSP) which provides the desired "forgotten password" self-service functionality.
    In the internet you find many examples of such "forgotten password" self-services - good ones and not so good ones. What all of them have in common is the requirement that the user has provided a valid email address or mobile number (during the account registration) which can be used for the required off-band communication. However they differentiate in the way they try to mitigate misuse: some prompt for a so-called passphrase (in most cases: the user has entered a free-text answer to a question chosen from a fixed set of predefined questions, during accoutn registration) before sending a newly created password to the email address retrieved from the user account; others generate a (random) "password change token" which they send to the email address and prompt the user to enter this "password change token" on the webpage (the account remains untouched until the correct "password change token" was entered, in most cases this is also time-restricted). I prefer the latter one.
    Cheers, Wolfgang

  • Customize SAP GUI Logon screen

    Hi,
    I have seen that some logon screens (where you enter client, user, password, language) has additional written information, like "needing a user for this system, please call xxx". My question is how and where can i define this additonal information on the SAP GUI logon screen?
    Best regards,

    Hello, it means the system creators (for example if is IDES or trial SAP systems) or system administrators creates this information, try read how --> Note 205487 - Own text on SAPGui logon screen

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

  • How to pass database logon info to a Crystal Report in a subreport with different server name using VS C #

    Post Author: fabu1971
    CA Forum: .NET
    I could pass the database logon in Reports with subreports but the reports with subreports with different  server name I can not pass the logon information . Do you have any idea how I can do that to pass the database logon with different database or server name ?

    Post Author: quafto
    CA Forum: .NET
    You can use the Subreports collection of the ReportDocument object to access all the subreports in your main report. These are returned as ReportDocument objects. Once you have your subreport as a ReportDocument you can loop through your Tables collection and set the ConnectionProperties to your appropriate Server/Database. For example here is some pseudo code: ConnectionInfo boConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();boConnectionInfo.ServerName = "serverName";boConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "databaseName";boConnectionInfo.UserID = "username";boConnectionInfo.Password = "yourpassword"; foreach(ReportDocument boSubreport in mainReport.Subreports){    foreach(Table boTable in boSubreport.Database.Tables)    {        TableLogOnInfo boTableLogOnInfo = boTable.LogOnInfo;          boTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = boConnectionInfo;          boTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(boTableLogOnInfo);          boTable.Location = "newtablelocation";     }}

  • Database Logon Failed after first report

    I have a Windows Server 2003 x86 server running IIS6 and ASP.NET. On this server, I have two different web forms set up to export Crystal Reports to PDF.
    My problem is that only one of these reports can run. For example, I open report 1 and can then reopen (generate PDF of) report1 as many times as I want. I cannot open report 2 - I get a "Database Logon Failed" error message. If I restart the server, I can generate a PDF of report 2 successfully and as many times as I want but report 1 will get a "Database Logon Failed" error message.
    Has anyone seen this behavior before? My code is very concise and manually closes the report document (and forces the garbage collection to run) once the PDF has been generated. However, for some reason, the report is staying in memory and is trying to run again even though it has been closed. It is driving me crazy.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.

    Let's get the server confusion out of the way.
    A "server" runtime install is an msi file called CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msi.
    The msi is in a download called Crystal Reports XI Release 2 - FP x.x .NET Server Install (where x.x refers to SP or FP version (e.g.; Crystal Reports XI Release 2 - FP 5.6 .NET Server Install)
    So, this gives you an easy way of installing the CR runtime on a server (e.g.. Win 2003 server). No CR server (RAS) implication here. To install the runtime, all you have to do is run the msi, provide the keycode when prompted and the runtime is installed. You should see the directory C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\bin created. No pretty interface, etc. If you want a pretty interface, you create your own setup project or msi using the CR msm files.
    Hopefully this clears up the "server" confusion.
    To the actual issue on hand.
    You say this works with older "Crystal Reports viewers" installed on a WIN 2003 64 bit server. My question is; does this CR XI r2 based app work anywhere? Your dev box? Staging server?
