Disable prompting Database credentials

All,
We are trying to upload the Crystal reports to BO XI R3 server using Infoview. The reports prompts for database credentials. We have feature on CMC to set "Use same credentails for reports", But how can we acheive this from Crystal report/Infoview. We donot have access to CMC.
Thanks in advance.
Venkat

Two thoughts for you:
1) Try creating a crystal report off a universe - I believe this will not prompt you to login.
2) Have your Enterprise administrators delegate rights to the CMC for a subset of your users to allow them to save a password with the reports.
Good luck!

Shared folders (Windows file shares) show access denied and do not prompt for credentials

Scenario:
Like other admins, I log on and work as a 'standard user' (usera) with no admin rights anywhere in the domain, to perform admin tasks I have another account (userb) which I authenticate with as and when required. userb has been allocated/delegated permissions
as required.
Problem:
When trying to connect to shared folders on servers (2008 R2) using a UNC patch via Windows Explorer (Win 7 Ent.), I see an access denied error and do not get an option to supply alternative credentials.
If I try to connect to the admin shares on the same server (\\server\C$ or \\server\e$) I get an access denied message AND get prompted for credentials. I supply my admin account and gain access as expected.
If I check share and storage management when attempting to connect, I see that Windows is trying to connect me to each share as usera (which has no access). I understand why I get access denied at this point, but not why it can't just prompt me to supply an
account that does have access. When trying the admin shares I also see the usera account, but I get a prompt to supply a user who does have access.
Share permissions on the folders are for example 'Everyone' Full Control. NTFS permissions are 'userb' has modify (read, execute, list, traverse etc) via a 'Server Admins' AD Universal security group.
Note: If I do a NET USE from CMD and use the /USER switch, I can access the shares fine. But this is not great for accessing shared folders on the fly from various computers.
How can I get the other shares on the server to prompt me, rather than just say access denied?
Many thanks.

Outlook Anywhere Prompts for Credentials only for Outlook 2010, not Outlook 2013

I'm having a heck of a time with this one. We have Exchange 2010 on premise, with our filtering through EOP. Clients that are using Outlook 2010 Professional Plus are continuously getting prompted for credentials when off network and relying
on Outlook Anywhere.
I've read many threads about configuring credential manager appropriately for the internal domain and our external domain. I can get them to authenticate just fine, and email flows, but they continue to be prompted everytime they connect again.
Here is the kicker: When I install Outlook 2013 on the same computer, outlook anywhere functions just fine, no problems, no authentication prompt.
Like I said I have read a plethera of articles and threads about this, I have gone through all settings on Exchange, our edge server, our firewall, our certificate. The MSSTD string matches our "Issued To" string. NTLM authentication
is configured on both the client and the server. Appropriate settings are configured on the firewalls.
Anyone know why Outlook 2010 would have this problem, but not Outlook 2013 on the same computer, same user, same mailbox database?
Thanks in advance!!!

I'd still Echo Ed's original question.
Do you have Outlook 2010 patched up? At this time you need to be on SP1, and SP2 by October the 14th.
Also I expect you to have a recent update ontop of that as well.

Disabling prompts blocks InfoPath publishing

I have a SharePoint 2010 Enterprise environment with InfoPath 2010. Using several forms published as content types in several site collections, all working fine.
Users are getting prompted Open/Save of documents in libraries (word, excel) - Office Web Apps installed, mime types in place etc. Found many articles saying that the solution is to disable the verbs Options and Propfind to remedy this behavior.
I tested in Dev by modifying web.config with
<verbs allowUnlisted="true">
<add verb="OPTIONS" allowed="false" />
<add verb="PROPFIND" allowed="false" />
</verbs>
Opening word & excel documents work as expected, hurray!
Now attempting to
publish InfoPath forms anywhere in the web app causes an error "URL is invalid".
Researching that error typically points to the lack of a root site, which is not the case. Removing the verb entry from web.config and the InfoPath forms publish fine.
How can I disable prompting on Open for documents in the SharePoint libraries AND continue publishing InfoPath forms?

This is why the first link is important:
Important This URL list does not affect the security zone settings. This URL list is used only for the specific purpose of forwarding the credentials to WebDAV servers. The list should be created as restrictively as possible to avoid
any security issues. Also, because there is no specific deny list, the credentials are forwarded to all the servers that match this list.
The second link stops the prompting when opening a document via http, vs WebDAV.

Getting Prompt for Credentials When Opening InfoPath 2010 Form in Sharepoint 2010

I have a domain user who runs Office 2010 x32 and uses a Sharepoint 2010 site daily. Lately a specific page on that site has been randomly giving prompts for credentials when opening existing documents and creating new ones. The process can be most easily
replicated by opening the new document template in Infopath by going to Documents -> New in the ribbon bar of the SP page. Most of the time the Windows credentials for the user are passed to Infopath/Sharepoint automatically (which is normal), but on the
fourth or fifth attempt to create a new form, the prompt appears. The user can still enter the credentials and open the blank template form, but a prompt should not appear. The user is also the administrator for that page, so I'm thinking it's not a permissions
issue.
The user is running IE 9 on Windows 7 Pro x64. I have performed the following:
Reset advanced IE settings and all user cache data
Cleared cached Sharepoint credentials in Windows credential manager
Re-applied group policy for the machine using gpupdate /force
Logged in with a clean temporary profile
Logged in to another domain account using the user's Sharepoint credentials
Cleared Infopath cache
Re-installed Office 2010 x32
The problem only occurs only on this particular machine. There are no Sharepoint or authentication-related errors or warnings in the application and system event logs. There are also no error messages on-screen when the prompt appears. I also considered
the possibility of this being a performance related issue in the case that maybe Infopath was taking too long to start, causing the credential pass-through process to time out and fall back to a prompt. I ran disk cleanup, deleted some temporary files, and
checked for excessive CPU/memory load. I didn't find any issues and doing these things did not help.
I'm convinced there is another setting somewhere in Windows that is causing this. Interestingly it always happens after four or five attempts, never the first time. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi Titan, this sounds like an IE security setting issue. Things to do:
1. In Internet options>Security>Local Intranet, make sure "Enable Protected Mode" is not selected.
2. Under Sites>Advanced, add https://*.sharepoint.com (and make sure "Require server verification..." is not checked).
3. Under Security>Custom Level, scroll all the way to the bottom and make sure "Automatic logon with current user..." is checked.

Hi,
I have site with contains many document library each contains many MS Office and Pdf files. We have provided document library level access rights. While users click the file name, "Prompting the credentials while click MS office documents in document
library in SharePoint Foundation 2010".
Its annoying the user.
How could i resolve this? Its for all users.
Note: only for MS Office file. other files are opening correctly.
Kind Regards
Poomani Sankaran

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got the promote issue when clicked the documents in the library of the SharePoint foundation server.
The issue may be caused that the Kerberos authentication is misconfigured, you can change to NTLM to check whether it works.

SQLServer Reporting Services 2005 Prompts for Credentials for a trusted domain user

Currently the report is running in the domain AAA. Users in the domain AAA are using the report.
Another new domain BBB and an user XXX is now created and BBB\XXX has been given Browser access. Domain AAA and BBB are trusted domains.
After this when the user BBB\XXX logs in and access the report, before loading the report, credentials dialog is prompted, once credentials of BBB\XXX is entered, the report is loaded.
Why the report prompts for this additional credential dialog for the trusted domain user?

Hello,
Did you have get two textboxes in the report parameter panel (in the left side of the "View Report" button)? The issue is occurred when the credential of the datasource is configured with “Prompt for credentials”. Please check if you configured the credential
with "Stored Credential" of the datasource.
Please refer to the following thread to configure the credential.

ABAP consuming Web Service in HTTPS keeps prompting for credentials

I have a Share Point Web Service that I want
to call in HTTPS from ABAP
in an ECC 6.0 SAP_BASIS 700 SP 30 system. The
following steps have been
executed:
BASIS work completed –
SAPCRYPTOLIB, HTTPS Activation, profile
parameters, STRUST certificates
I have created the Client Proxy in SE80 for the SharePoint WCF Web Service
The Logical Port was created in SOAMANAGER
The issue I have is when I test the process using SE80 sometimes it will prompt
for credentials, sometimes it won't. The behavior is very sporadic, I
can run it once and it prompts then the second time it doesn't. This is
especially true after a restart of the system. The user and password
are on the RFC destination under consumer security tab.
Any suggestions why the prompting for
credentials?

Office Web App Prompting For Credentials Externally Only

We deployed an office web app server and it works great internally, but whenever we try to access documents externally, we are prompted for credentials. Even if we put our credentials in, we always get a 401 forbidden error. Also note that
we can access the hosting/discovery page fine internally, but not externally. Any help is appreciated.

According to your description, I think this issue is more related to SharePoint, I suggest that you could post it to

Outlook 2013 Continually Prompting For Credentials

After migrating to Office 365 & installing Pro Plus 2013, Outlook 2013 (32-bit) continues to prompt for credentials even though it shows the mailbox as connected to Exchange.
To stop this prompt, I've done the following:
Removed Outlook credentials from credential manager
Removed/recreated Outlook profiles & renamed "outlook" folder found at C:\User\"username"\AppData\Local\Microsoft\ to "Outlook.old" so Outlook will recreate the folder upon restart.
Checked Security tab of "more settings" of the mailbox to make sure "Always prompt for logon credentials" isn't checked.
Please someone give me guidance as to what else the issue could be.

Hello,
How did you set the Logon network security under More Settings on the Microsoft Exchange
Security tab? Please make sure it's not set to a value other than
Anonymous Authentication.
To verify this, please follow these steps:
1. Launch Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, locate and click
Mail.
3. Click Show Profiles, select your Outlook profile, and click
Properties.
4. Click E-mail Accounts, select
Account Settings and on the E-mail tab, click Change.
5. In the Change Account dialog, click
More Settings.
6. In the Microsoft Exchange dialog, select the
Security tab.
7. From the Login network security
dropdown, select Anonymous Authentication and click
OK.
8. Click Next and click
Finish, and then click Close on the Account Settings dialog.
9. Click Close on the
Mail Setup dialog, and click OK to close the Mail control panel.
Please let me know the result.

Windows XP Machines Always Prompt for Credentials (Exchange 2013, Outlook 2010)

I am running Exchange 2013 on Server 2012 Datacenter (VM). Windows 7 clients with Outlook 2010 work fine. Windows XP clients with Outlook 2010 prompt for credentials (user name and password) each time Outlook is started, and checking the "Remember
my password" box does not prevent this from happening the next time. The "Always prompt for logon credentials" checkbox on the "Security" tab of the "More Settings" section of the Exchange account is not checked. I have found a myriad of posts
with similar issues, but they all seem to have to do with SBS/Exchange 2007, and I haven't come across something that works as a solution for me. One suggested certificate issues, and I was having certificate security warnings, but I got that resolved.
I am hopefuly that the fact that this only happens on Windows XP will be telling.

HOW-TO specify database credentials in LDAP user

Hi:
I want to know how can i specify oracle database credentials (oracle database usernname) that one specific user will use to connect to the database for instance when using Oracle Forms.
I saw in OID some "tags" like orcluserv1, etc... is this ? how can i do it ?
For instance i want that:
LDAP user Database user
user00001 dbuserA
user00002 dbuserA
user00003 dbuserA
user00004 dbuserB
user00005 dbuserB
So ldap user00001 will connect to the database with dbuserA ..
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

Hi Ashish:
I've succesfully created an user with OIDDAS and assign it a "resource acess information" of type OracleDB.
So, when creating this user i specified the username in db that this user will use to access database. Until now, it's all perfect. But, where's this information is stored ?
I've access OID Manager and see that user is create in the Entry Management, but the DB information is not stored in any of the properties of this user.
This is a problem, because I want to make an APP that will use DBMS_LDAP pack to create user dynamically, so I have to know what attributes/classes/properties that user needs for assign it to a specific DB user.
Can you help ?
Thanks The information is stored in an Oracle Specific container called 'cn=oracleContext' in the default subscriber.
You can use the DBMS_LDAP_UTL package (shipped in iAS 902) to query these Resource Access Descriptors. Directly
storing these from PL/SQL is not presently supported. OIDDAS is the only interface through which you can get this done.

How To Disable Verify Database Message Alert

How To Disable Verify Database Message Alert?
I have a VB6 open Crystal Reports using Crystal Reports XI R2 (SP5) and almost every time I open a report, I get an alert message about the table has been changed and I have to click "Ok" to make it goes away. Is there a way to disabled this alert or set default to "Ok" so I do not have to click this message every report. Thank you very much.

Hello,
You must verify if the database has changed so you can't disable the message. CR must match what the DB is using or the reports will fail or return wrong data.
It's odd that even after verifying the DB in the designer your app still needs it to be verify the report. You did save the report correct?
Also:
Dim CRApplication As CRAXDDRT.Application
Dim Report As CRAXDDRT.Report
Is the report creation engine and you should be using craxdrt.dll. You need to be licnesed to use craxddrt.dll and this may cause problems for you later when deploying.
Use:
Dim CRApplication As CRAXDRT.Application
Dim Report As CRAXDRT.Report
The mapping is not a switch you can turn on or off but it is Event driven. You need to add code to the viewer section to capture the event if the mapping event fires. Then you can set it to the way you want to use it.
I suggest you purchase a case on line and get to the Report Design team to figure out why when you verify the report your app still thinks it needs to be verified. Something going on in your report that the forum makes it difficult to debug the problem. You can't attach files to forums.

How to set database credentials to form?

Hi All,
I'm newbie em Forms. I'm facing a situation and I don't know how to solve it. I run a forms application in a giver browser and I'm always asked to type database credentials in order to connect to this database. In development time there's no problem, however, general users cannot have database user and password to be able to access the form.
Is there any way to set database credentials (user, password, database) in order to user not being asked to provide these info ?
thanks a lot

Hi,
Plz configure formsweb.cfg file in order to achieve this. Set the parameter 'userid=<YourDatabaseCredential>'.
e.g. userid=scott/tiger@orcl
thanks & best regards,

Database Credentials When Scheduling Crystal Report

In our Crystal Reports 2008 server, each user has their database credentials populated in their user account on the Crystal Reports Server.
(in the area where is says "Enable Database Credentials").
For each of our reports, we have the option "Use SSO context for database logon" selected.
This causes the server to connect to the database using each user's database credentials when they run reports "on-demand".
However, these credentials do not automatically populate when they go to schedule a report.
Is there a way to get these credentials to populate the Database Login fields when scheduling reports to run?
It seems odd to me that it would use the credentials "on-demand", but not when setting up a scheduled report.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Brian.
What you describe is what we currently have setup.
The difference with what I'm asking is that each user's account has different database login credentials.
So when running "on-demand", it logs in using the credentials in their account settings.
But when running "scheduled" everyone logs into the database using the default account.
We have row-level security on the database (using Oracle VPD) to enforce security based on the user account that is logged into the database.
This means that when running the report scheduled, the security doesn't work because it doesn't populate the database credentials from the user's account.
