File structure and Multi-user access/control

Hi All
Currently evaluating RH. Our plan is to use RH HTML with RoboServer and either SourceSafe or Team Foundation for source control. We will be producing the "printed" manual (PDF) and publishing online help (hopefully html via RH server) from the single source layout
Given that we will edit content in RH's XHTML editor, I'm not clear on when we should create new files or the granularity of multi-user access. We have 17 apps and I plan to use a master project and merging (because we need to link to related topics in other apps).
I'm really not sure what should constitute a file in RH. First off, is access controlled at the file level?
I want to have multiple authors editing the same manual at the same time, so do I need to break the manual into multiple small files (currently it's a single word doc)?
If I do break it into multiple files, what's the best approach: 1 file per topic (or is this a requirement)?
Finally, when I come to generate the PDF, will the files be combined. (i.e. can I have different page-breaks than I have in the RH project)?
Any pointers greatly appreciated
Regards
Mark

Hi,
First off, is access controlled at the file level?
Not sure what you mean by that. In source control, you can check in/out ever file independent. Sometimes dependent files will be automatically checked out, for instance images used in the css when you check out the style sheet.
I want to have multiple authors editing the same manual at the same time, so do I need to break the manual into multiple small files (currently it's a single word doc)?
That be the idea. Anyway, it's not a good idea to have an entire RoboHelp project in a single topic. You probably want to cut up your contents into the small chunck: topics.
If I do break it into multiple files, what's the best approach: 1 file per topic (or is this a requirement)?
In RoboHelp a topic is a HTML file. RoboHelp doesn't force you to split up content into one or more topics. If you are creating help for the web, you want the information to be organized in relatively small chunck so users can quickly scan through it.
Finally, when I come to generate the PDF, will the files be combined. (i.e. can I have different page-breaks than I have in the RH project)?
Not sure what you mean by page breaks. As RoboHelp creates HTML files, there are no page breaks such as in paper manuals. When you create a PDF, you combine the topics you need into a single document.
If a PDF is required for you, you may want to consider not using RoboHelp for your sources. A PDF created by RoboHelp is useful for internal use, but it never seems to get good enough to give to customers. Personally, when a PDF version of a manual is required, I create the manual in FrameMaker and link or import the book into RoboHelp. You can also link Word documents, so you may want to play around with that before deciding whether to use Word, RoboHelp or FrameMaker for your source.

Multi-user access control

User #1 opens a PDF on a server and starts making changes. User #2 opens the same file and starts making changes. User #2 for example can create sticky notes and make lots of comments. When User #2 tries to save his changes he's denied as User #1 opened the file first. Is there a way (like with MS office) that User #2 will be warned when opening the file that his version is read-only?
Thanks!

Sorry, no.
Acrobat/Reader do not have their own file locking system (as Office does), so they have no idea that another user is accessing the document until they send the operating system a 'save' instruction, and get an error saying it's not allowed.

Multi user access in Single application file

Hi,
Is it possible to work Single application but multi-user access in Indesign CS6.
If yes, Please let me know how to access.

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. InDesign files can be edited by only a single user at one time, but any user can open a file not already in use.

ESYU: R12 - Order Management를 위한 Multi Org Access Control(MOAC) setup 방법

Purpose
Oracle Order Management - Version: 12.0 to 12.0
Information in this document applies to any platform.
R12의 Order Management에 대핸 Multi Org Access Control(MOAC) setup 방법에 대해 알아본다.
Solution
일반적인 MOAC Setup:
1. HRMS에서 Security Profile을 정의:
a. HRMS Management responsibility 선택
b. HRMS Manager> Security> Profile로 이동
c. Security Profile이 정의되어 있는지 확인 (OM responsibility 혹은 Site level로)
d. 만일 아직 setup 되어져 있지 않다면 Operating Units를 입력
e. 저장
Note: 만일 위 d step과 같이 새로운 security profile을 생성하였다면 concurrent program 'Security List Maintenance'를 꼭 실행해야 한다.
그렇지 않으면 multiple operating units가 OM forms의 LOV에 나타나지 않을 것이다.
이 program은 multi-org access를 validating 하기 위해 사용하는 table에 data를 생성한다.
Navigation: HRMS Management> HRMS Manager> Processes & Reports> Submit Process & Report> Security List Maintenance
2. MO Profile Options setup:
a. MO: Security Profile - 이 profile setting은 MOAC functionality를 활성화 한다.
b. MO: Default Operating Unit - 이 Operating Unit는 OM forms과 report에서 default가 될 것이며, 이를 clear 하거나 변경하기 위해 LOV를 사용할 수 있다.
Keep the MO profiles in sync:
MO: Security Profile은 site와 responsibility level로 setting 할 수 있다.
MO: Default Operating Unit은 site, responsibility, user level로 setting 할 수 있다.
Application이 원하는대로 동작되지 않는것을 발견하면 이 profile options의 setting 값을 확인한다.
3. OM setup:
R12 upgrade 시 OM Profile에서 migrate 된 새로운 OM System Parameters를 확인:
Order Management Super User> Setup> System Parameters> Values
(See <<NOTE 393646.1>>-R12 Readiness Cheat Sheet: Migrated OM Profile Options)
4. Form에서 hidden field 'Operatin Unit'를 활성화시키고 default folder로 저장:
Sales Order and Order Organizer forms
Quick Sales order and Organizer forms
Sales Agreement forms
Pricing and Availability form
Other forms
Note: Sales Order form에서 hidden field 'Operating Unit'를 'Show' 하기 전에 fotm안에 이 field를 위한 공간을 만들어 놓아야 한다.
예를 들면 Customer Number field를 짧게 하거나 Operating Unit field로 이 field를 덮어씌울수 있다.

Hi Larry,
Have you considered adding the exec apps.mo_global.set_policy_context call to your connection's start-up script?
Tools -> Preferences -> Database -> Filename for connection startup scriptNot the most flexible approach, so I'm not sure if it is appropriate for your application, but just a thought. You might create distinct connection names with different start-up scripts for each org_id.

Multi-user access?

I would like to switch over our organization's website from blogspot to iweb. Right now, several of us have access to the blogspot site so that we can all post. Will I loose multi-user access if I switch to iweb? And, if not, will everyone have to have access to my personal mac account in order to post?
Thanks for the help.

Having multiuser access requires that everyone share the Domain file where iWeb keeps its data and that each person only use the latest version of it. Of course each user must also have a Mac and iWeb installed as well. Personally I would stick with blogspot.

Adobe with User Access Control

I am trying to watch videos which use Flash Player and they
will play if I turn off my User Access Control however, as soon as
I turn it back on, the videos will not play; I do not want to keep

able to use flash before without turning this off but I could not
tell you what happened other than I added Adobe Reader (registered

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=15&catid=194&threadid =1415087&enterthread=y
However, this did not help the problem; I did everything
exactly the way it appears on these instructions however, one part
I had to do differently - where it states to place the

Error: Access is denied.
Cannot create C:\Program Files\Windows Resource

Therefore, I saved this file to documents and then moved it
to the C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\ folder.
Everything else followed just the way the details explained they
would so I figured it should have worked.
My main thing is, this is my laptop and I'm the only user so
I should have Admin. privileges without any of this to begin with!
I check my user settings and it is set at "Administrator

Importing a pkg with rely on server storage and roles for access control

Hi we run std 2008 r2. I'm reading documentation on prot levels during pkg import to catalog at
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141747(v=sql.105).aspx but unfortunately the definition of prot level "rely on server storage and roles for access control"
isn't clear. They used the prot level name to define it which didn't help me.
This option looks appealing but it isn't clear why I need to enter a pswd when choosing this option. Will my peers need to know that pswd when they export? Will the sql agent job need to present that pswd when running? If I just keep current
prot level "encrypt with user" will the agent job be able to run it? I'm sure it (agent) isn't running with my creds now. Also, how can I tell what prot level it was deployed with last? I rt clicked on the pkg in the catalog
and don't see anything obvious about that. I already understand that on export prot level is changed to encrypt with user.
I'm going to look at the sql agen job right now to see what creds it runs with.

First thing to understand is that protection level is used for determining how package (dtsx) file have to be protected. Once package is deployed in server and executed from agent, the conventional way is to use method of configurations or parameters if
2012 to get required connection etc values and execute using it. It never uses the values that were set during the design time. So it doesnt matter what protection level was so far as its based on config
However if you're planning to export existing package to your system and do modification thats where protection level comes to play. If its set to any of ENcryptSensitive... type value then you'll to provide the value (either a passowrd or your userkey which
it takes automatically from login info) to see the sensitive info (connection info,passwords etc) The package will still open and so far as you manually type in missing values you will be able to execute the package. If protection level is set to one of ENcrptAll
then you will have no way to open package itself unless you provide password/ have correct userkey.
The rely on server storage option uses sql server security context itself ie it doesnt do any encryption within package by itself but will assume values based on sqlserver security. This is used when you store package itself in SQLServer itself (MSDB)

Forms Authentication Error: User '' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed

I created a custom security extension following the steps listed in the Readme_Security Extension Sample. It works fine if I login as the user that is specified AdminConfiguration section of the rsreportserver.config file but if I
log in as another user, I get this error: User '' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed. I've added the user to both System Administrator
and System User roles to try to get it to work but still no luck.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks.

Hi MetronM,
The issue is due to that user have no permission to access the report server. In report manager, Reporting Services includes predefined roles that we can assign to users and groups to provide immediate access to a report server. Each role defines a collection
of related tasks.
You can refer to the following steps to assign corresponding role to the user.
Open report manager.
Click “Folder Setting” button.
Click “New Role Assignment” icon.
Type the user name and select the corresponding role.
There is an article about Granting Permissions on a Native Mode Report Server, you can refer to it.

Need help understanding Time Capsule file structure and how to get it back

I have the original Time Capsule on which I backup both my Mac Pro and my wife’s Macbook. When Snow Leopard came out, I successfully used the ‘Restore from Time Machine’ feature on my Mac Pro so I know it has worked. However, my wife’s MacBook harddrive died the other day and I was trying to do the ‘Restore from Time Machine’ and all it would find was a backup from April (when I put her in a new larger drive). Time Machine would not find any backup files newer that April. She stated that she had seen the the Time Machine backup notices regularly and as recent as the day the haddrive died (Nov. 23) so I figured that I should have no problem. Here is what I have found in my trouble shooting and what leads to my questions below.
This is the file structure I found: (note that our ID’s are ‘Denise’ and ‘John’)
*Time Capsule* (the drive as listed in my Finder window sidebar under ‘shared’)
>Folder called ‘Time Capsule’ (when logged in as either ‘Denise’ or ‘John’)
>>Denise Sparsebundle
>>>Backup of Denise’s iBook (mounted image)
>>>>Folder called ‘Backups.backupdb’
>>>>>Folder called ‘Denise’s iBook
>>>>>>Single folder with old April backup (not the right files)
>>John Sparsebundle
>>>Backup of John’s Mac Pro (mounted image)
>>>>Folder called ‘Backups.backupdb’
>>>>>Folder called ‘John’s Mac Pro’
>>>>>>Folders containing all my backup files
>Folder Called ‘Denise’ (if logged as ‘Denise’)
>>Denise’s Sparsebundle (a disk image)
>>>Backup of Denise iBook (the mounted image. Name from old machine)
>>>>Backups.Backupdb
>>>>>Denise’s iBook (Contains the backup I need)
>Folder Called ‘John’ (if logged in as ‘John’)
>> (empty)
For some reason, my wife’s backup files are stored within a folder located at the top level of the Time Capsule drive called ‘Denise’, however, mine are within a folder called ‘Time Capsule’ which is at the same level as the ‘Denise’ folder.
For some reason, when trying to use Time Machine to recover, it bypasses the top level ‘Denise’ folder which contains the correct files and goes into the ‘Time Capsule’ folder and finds the outdated backup files.
I would assume that both my backup files and my wife’s should be at the same level of the Time Capsule.
I was eventually able to use Migration Assistant to recover the files after installing a fresh OS and mounting the correct Sparsebundle image.
So, my question, how do I get this fixed so that if I have to recover a drive with Time Capsule, it will find the correct files.
Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance for any help.

What I was trying to determine is why different backups for one particular machine are located at different file structure levels on my Time Capsule and why the most resent one for that machine is at a different level that for my other machine. Also, what is the correct level that both machines backups should be at.
well John, first can you clarify if you are on 10.4.8 as your profile suggests ? if so, i'm wondering how you can use TM at all because TM was introduced with Leo. if you're not on 10.4.8, please update your profile. if you could, please also indicate details of your machine such as available RAM, processor, etc.
second, what OS is your wife's machine running ?
third, i frankly don't know too much about TM's file structure or if there indeed is such a thing as the correct one. however, i do know that it is best to leave TM to do its thing (as long as it's working). FWIW, though off-topic, you may want to have a look at this read for further information.
last but not least, i see TM backups to my TC only as a part of my backup strategy. the backbone of my strategy is to create bootable clone of my startup disk(s) using e.g. Carbon Copy Cloner on a regular basis. while TM is capable of doing a full system restore, i don't trust it as much as a working clone. i use TM to retrieve a file i accidentally trashed a week ago but you cannot boot from a TM backup if your startup disk goes belly up.
If I have missed this information in either the FAQs or the Troubleshooting article, I would greatly appreciate being pointed to it .
i expect you didn't miss anything and i'm sorry you didn't find any help there. perhaps if Pondini (author of the FAQ and troubleshooting user tips) reads this thread, you will get the necessary advice on the file structure and more besides.
good luck to you !

File structure and hierarchy in Aperture.

Hi, everyone.
I am trying to import folders with images into Aperture and, much to my surprise, have found that this process is everyting but intuitive and straightforward.
My library (outside of Aperture) is made up of folders each corresponding to a day and location. These folders are labeled using the data and location as part of their name.
As I try to import these folders into Aperture I can't seem to import them into a single folder or project as sub-folders or sub-domains of that project. I have tried to create a project and them import the folders into it but Aperture won't import them into that project and doesn't allow me to drag and drop it either once it has been imported. I also tried to create albums and folders but haven't been successful.
How does this file structure in Aperture work in terms of hierarchy ? It certainly isn't structured the way the Finder is or any other file system I have seen to date. Creating folders, organizing them and bringing any type of data into these folders should be a simple process but in Aperture it doesn't seem to be.
Am I doing something wrong or is Aperture trying to re-invent the wheel ?
Is there any tutorial I can watch or read on how to work with Aperture's file structure and import folders and folders into it ?
Thank you in advance.

Regarding your specific problem I suggest treating each existing dated folder of image files as a single Project in Aperture. In Aperture a Project is a specific time-based concept that may or may not jive with what you previously considered a project. For instance I may have in my mind that shooting all the highest peaks in every state is a "project," but that would be inappropriate as an Aperture Project. Instead each peak might be a Project, but the pix of all the peaks would be pointed to as an Album.
The way I look at it conceptually:
Aperture is a database (DB), and each image file lives in one Project.
Albums are just collections of Pointers that point to individual image files living in one or more Projects. Since they just contain pointers, albums can be created or deleted at will without affecting image files. Very powerful. And Albums of pointers take up almost zero space, so they are fast and do not make the Library size grow.
Keywords can be applied to every image separately or in batches. Keywords are hugely powerful and largely obviate the need for folders. Not that we should never use folders, just that we should use folders only when useful organizationally - - after first determining that using keywords and albums is not a better approach.
As one example imagine the keyword "flowers." Every image of a 100,000 images Library that has some flowers in it has the keyword flowers. Then say we want to put flowers in an ad, or as background for a show of some kind, or to print pix for a party, or even just to look for an image for some other reason. We can find every flower image in a 100k-image database in 2 seconds, and in another few seconds create an Album called "Flowers" that points to all of those individual images.
Similarly all family pix can have a keyword "family" and all work pix can have a key word "work." Each individual pic may have any number of keywords. Such pic characteristics (work, family, flowers, etc.) should not be organized via folders.
So by using keywords and albums we can have instant access to every image everywhere, very cool. And keywords and albums essentially take up no space in the database.
Another approach is to use a folder "Family" for family pix, a folder "Flowers" for flowers pix and another folder "Work" for work pix. IMO such folders usage is a very poor approach to using an images database (probably stemming from old paper or film work practices). Note that one cannot put an image with family in a field of flowers at a work picnic in all three folders; but it is instant with keywords.

IWeb file structure and naming system

I am trying to publish my iWeb directly to my domain (www.jessewarren.net) using the FTP direct publish function. However, iWeb is applying an overly complex naming system.
For example, its publishing not only the page names, but also the name of the Site in iWeb, after the original URL. Here's an example: http://jessewarren.net/testing/Site/Blank.html
First, I need everything to be on the domain. Then, I only need the name of the individual pages to be published, not the Site Name itself. I already have a site name, and that's my domain.
Any other advice on how to control file structure and naming in iWeb?

This is not incorrect and it is the way iWeb publishes and has done ever since iWeb 06. When you publish from iWeb to a local folder, what you get is your Site folder with your site name and a separate index file.
If you don't want your site name included, then what you need to do is rather than using the direct ftp from iWeb, select ftp to a local folder instead. Your site will then be published to your desktop. Then download either Cyberduck or Transmit for free - these are dedicated ftp programs. Then all you do is load just the contents of your site folder to your public_html folder on your server and your url will then be http://www.domain.com/pagename.html.
Be aware though, that if you are loading like this, you are breaking iWeb site structure and RSS feed will not be available to you if you need to use it.
If you want to continue to use the built in iWeb ftp, then you could try naming your site public_html and then leaving the directory blank and then uploading like this and because you have named your site public_html and are uploading to the same place, your public_html folder on your server will be replaced with your website, thus eliminating the site name.
I have tried this method once myself with my own site and it does work, however, I still prefer to publish to a folder and then upload to my sever using Cyberduck.

Plz give replay quicKly

Hi tusharshinde,
Based on my understanding, you come across an issue when you try to access report manager and report server.
In Reporting Service, after installing a new report server, only users who are members of the Local Administrators group have permissions to access report server. If we want to grant permissions for other users to access report server, we should add users
to an item-level role and system-level role. Please refer to this article:
Grant User Access to a Report Server (Report Manager).
According to the screenshots, it’s clear that you don’t have sufficient permission to access report manager and report server. So in this scenario, please make sure you are members of local administrators group. To fix the issue, you could run IE browser
as administrator and add your account to an proper item level role and system-level role. If issue persists, please temporarily change the User Access Control settings to “Never notify”. For more information, please refer to articles below:

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Multi user application control data access

Dear all,
i am using Oracle Developer Suite 10g and database 10g, windows xp plate form.
i want to develop multi user application regarding education.
i have two questions.
1. i take a start from creating an HR database which have 30 tables.
this database has 10 users.
the users will log on from their own schema.
how they will access the HR schema?
should i create a public synonym for each table in the HR Schema?
or should i create a view for each table in each user schema?
or should i grant select,insert,update etc to each user on HR schema?
2. i want to control the data access for each user.
i.e. every student could access his own academic record. each teacher access his own related record, the manager the owner and so on.
how to accompolish this task? oracle roles are not sufficient for this purpose.
Your help is highly appriciated.

How about you start with the basic stuff, like the 2 days developers guide:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/to_toc?pathname=appdev.112/e10766/toc.htm
and make it to the advanced developers guide:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e25518/toc.htm
and work your way through the concepts manual:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/to_toc?pathname=server.112/e25789/toc.htm
and everything else which sounds interesting to you in here:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/portal.portal_db?selected=5&frame=
As for your first question this should be covered here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/network.112/e16543/authorization.htm#BABHFJFJ
i want to control the data access for each user.This is also documented:

User access control and WebStart

I'm considering tools and utils for a new project and WebStart looks like it could suit our needs just perfect.
Just one little question:
If I have a system with multiple applications controlled by WebStart, is it possible to restrict user access?
I need to be able to present different selections of applications to different types of users, is this possible to configure/code for WebStart?
Thankful for pointers

At what point do you want to treat different users
differently (like allowing access to different apps)?
Possible points could be:
- at the webserver level (different download pages,
that are access protected)
- different Web Start application caches (as far
as I understand under Win32 all users share
one cache - but this seems subject to some
property configuration in WebStart)
- within the application (the app expecting different
license keys, passwords or such)
- within Web Start (Web Start utility asks for password,
this could be achieved by writing a custom jnlp
client - think openjnlp as example
http://openjnlp.nanode.org/)
I think the first two options are not useful, as
users might get the application somewhere else
and just copy it onto their box - this is also
true for the last option.
So I would put access control into the applications
themselves.
