File view permissions not working in Rel 1

I'm part of a team setting up a new portal; Oracle 9iAS rel 1.
I have a portlet which is really a view into a folder called Social Events. Under Folder Style > Access, permission is granted to the company group: View Content, Manage Items, and this access has been cascaded down to all sub-folders. "Make Public" is left blank. "Enable Item Security" is left blank.
Within the folder are two sub-folders. Summer 2002 Picnic & Chili Cook-Off, 11/02
Within each are general files and a sub-sub-folder (Photos): under General is the event flyer, and after the event occurs, photos will be uploaded.
This portlet is on the Home page. Everyone is a member of the company group; and the company group can Customize (add only) anything on the Home page.
The trouble is, when my users click on the flyers (.ppt or .doc files), the files do not open.
I have had to reset the folder access to "Make Public" so that people can click on and open the files.
We definitely do not want our files open to the general public. (actually, we don't care about these particular files, but do about all the others soon to be uploaded)
What am I doing wrong??
Thanks,
Sheri

Deepak, thank you for the link. Unfortunately, that thread hasn't helped me. Notice that I've gone so far as to do the following:
1. In NQSConfig.ini, I've changed the DEFAULT_PRIVILEGES to NONE
2. In the repository, under Manage Identity, I've set all access rights for this column to NO ACCESS for every user and every application role. I've manually clicked No Access for every single Application Role and every single User on every row, including the Everyone row.
3. Restarted BI Server
In theory, that very severe two-step action should make the column disappear from every user. Nobody should be able to see it. Would you agree?
However, the column is still visible to everybody.
If I include the column in an analysis, it returns no results, just a column heading and empty cells, so at least that's a good thing. Still, it shouldn't be visible at all in the Subject Area.

  • Help viewer does not work after update to 10.4.4

    Since updating to 10.4.4 my Help viewer does not work, and all of the troubleshooting fixes suggested in other threads have not had any success in resolving this. I've noted that when I go to Users>Library>Documentation>Help there is no mac.help file - can someone tell me if that means that I've lost the file altogether and need to reinstall it? I get to the first screen of the viewer, but the links from there don't work. Thanks for any help that you can provide!

    Thanks for your suggestion. I downloaded OnyX and ran the cleaning function. After restarting, I opened Help and once again the first screen appeared fine. But again most of the links did not work, though those under the "What's New" heading did work. I might add that I had previously tried a variety of suggestions posted in another thread, which included deleting from the caches folder in Home>Library several files such as com.apple.helpui and help.plist in the Preferences folder. (As noted in my previous post this evening, I also created another user but that also did not have any effect.) Any other ideas? Thanks

  • Dremweaver CS6. Design View is not working.

    Hello.
    Design View is not working.
    I got this instead of normal View.
    What wrong with it?
    Regards,
    Nata

    Sometimes it is just a temporary problem and by shutting down the DW and rebooting the system resolves such problems.  Otherwise, you can try to reset the preferences using the instructions given here:
    <Restore preferences | Dreamweaver CS6, Dreamweaver CC>
    Or even try deleting the cache file using these instructions:
    <Deleting a corrupted cache file>
    Good luck.

  • If statement within a view is not working correctly ?

    Hi all,
    maybe i am wrong but i think the if statement within a view is not working correctly. See code down below.
    I would like to use the Hallo World depending on the page attribute isFrame with or without all the neccessary html tags. Therefore i have embedded the htmlb tags in an if statement. But for any reason if isframe is initial it isn't working. It would be great if anybody could help me.
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
      <htmlb:content design="design2003">
         <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    hallo world
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
         </htmlb:page>
      </htmlb:content>
    <% endif. %>
    thanks in advance and best regards
    Matthias Hlubek

    Matthias,
    The short answer: your example is <b>NOT</b> going to work. The long answer will probably 5 pages to describe. So first let me rewrite the example so that it could work, and then give a short version of the long answer. Do not be disappointed if it is not totally clear. It is rather complicated. (See the nice form of IF statements that are possible since 620.)
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if isframe is <b>NOT</b> initial. %>
    <htmlb:content design="design2003">
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
        hallo world
      </htmlb:page>
    </htmlb:content>
    <% else. %>
      hallo world
    <% endif. %>
    So why does your example not work? Let us start with a simple tag:
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
      </htmlb:page>
    Now, for each tag, we have effectively the opening part (<htmlb:page>), an optional body, and then the closing part (</htmlb:page>). We are now at the level of the BSP runtime processing one tag. What the runtime does not know, is whether the tag wants to process its body or not. Each tag can decide dynamically at runtime whether the body should be processed. So the BSP compiler generates the following code:
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    You should actually just debug your BSP code at ABAP level, and then you will immediately see all of this. Now, let us mix in your example with our code generation. First you simplified example:
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      </htmlb:page>
    <% endif. %>
    And then with our generated code. Look specifically at how the IF/ENDIF blocks suddenly match!
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
    endif.
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    endif.
    You can see that your ENDIF statements are closing IF blocks generated by the BSP compiler. Such a nesting will not work. This is a very short form of the problem, there are a number of variations, and different types of the same problem.
    The only way to solve this problem, is probably to put the body into a page fragment and include it like I did above with the duplicate HelloWorld strings. But this duplicates source code. Better is to put body onto a view, that can be processed as required.

  • IBM cognos TM1 Executive viewer is not working on direct Access

    Hi,
    We are implementing DirectAccess in our environment and testing applications in test lab. It has been observed that executive viewer is not working on Direct Access but working fine over VPN mobile checkpoint. When DA client click on open view button it
    gives error
    " Additional information:
    Unable to connect to server XYZ.com using TCP-IP port 7112. Please make sure that IBM cognos TM1 executive viewer server is started and the port is not blocked by any proxy server or firewall"
    but from client telnet is working on port 7112. All ports between DA server and application server are open 3389,7112 and 80.
    Also select database option is grayed out and user is unable to select the database. When switching to VPN its working fine.
    We are using Executive viewer 9.4. 
    Any help would be appreciated.

    It sounds like this program may not be capable of talking over IPv6, which DirectAccess uses. First make sure that when you connect it is trying to talk to a hostname and not an IPv4 address. If your program is calling for "192.168.1.100" - this is never
    going to work over DirectAccess. It must call for a name that DirectAccess can resolve to an IPv6 address for communication over DA.
    If you confirm it is talking to a name, and then if you confirm that you can do other things to that same name (can you RDP into the server for example?), then that confirms that DirectAccess traffic flow is working to that name/server.
    If RDP works but the application still doesn't work, then the application is probably incapable of IPv6. You can either ask IBM if they have a newer version that does talk IPv6, otherwise I have a utility available that can intercept packets from these kinds
    of problematic applications and flip the packets into IPv6 on the DA client. Let me know if you need any further information on that: http://www.ivonetworks.com/news/2013/05/ivo-networks-announces-app46-for-directaccess/

    I keep getting the message: "what should Firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

    cor-el,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

  • Hyperlink to file in JSP not working

    I have a JSP page where I am providing a hyperlink to a file on the C: drive as follows
    Try this
    Nothing happens when I click this hyperlink.
    When I scroll over the hyperlink I see the correct path "file:///C:/ReqImport/data.txt" in the status bar and when paste this path in my address bar, it does open up the file.
    Any ideas why this file hyperlink does not work on this JSP page.
    Thanks

    Hmm, you're right, I just tried it and it doesn't appear to work. It looks like a security thing: If the original page is on my hard drive, links to other files on my hard drive work. But when the original page is on a web server, links to files on my hard drive don't appear to work.
    Do you realize that such a link is referring to a file on the C: drive of the client, the user, not the C: drive of the server? I'm not sure what you're up to, but for most applications such a link is pretty much useless, as you normally have no way of knowing what files the user has on his C: drive.

  • File sharing is not working from pc to imac os x 10.9.2

    file sharing is not working from pc to imac os x 10.9.2

    Hello there Karen,
    It sounds like you are having to power cycle your modem to get internet back every single day. We can start by troubleshooting your Airport Express to help isolate the issue. I would first perform a Soft Reset, then test the issue again. If needed as a last resort I would then perform a Hard Reset:
    Soft reset
    Connect the device to power and wait for it to complete its start up process. To learn more about the start up process, please see All about Wi-Fi base station Status Lights (LED).
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip for 1 full second, then release it. The light (LED) will begin flashing amber, indicating that the device is in soft reset mode.
    From the AirPort menu bar item, choose the network created by the device (the network name does not change).
    Open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station, then click Edit (The Edit window will indicate that the base station is in Soft Reset mode).
    Move through the tabs to make changes to your passwords or other settings as needed, and click Update and Continue as required
    Quit AirPort Utility.
    Hard reset
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
    Release the button and the device will reset.
    Wait about a minute for the base station to finish restarting, then open AirPort Utility from Applications > Utilities.
    Select the base station from Other Wi-Fi Devices, then click Edit.
    Select the Other Options button.
    Select "Restore previous settings" and click Next until you get to the final window.
    AirPort Utility will indicate that Setup is complete. Click Done.
    Quit AirPort Utility.

  • File manager still not working w 10.7.3combo

    Since installing lion (I started with 10.7.2) file manager is not working. Yes, I can force uit it and than it does but it is still very annoying and time consumin to do it 2-4 times a day. I was hoping that 10.7.3 will solv it. Than installed based on advice I received hee 10.7.3 compbo but the problem is still there.
    Do you know or have you run accross a thread that explains how to solve it?
    Advanced thats to anyone who can help
    Ruvy

    What is "file manager?"  Is that a piece of third-party software, or are you referring to the Finder?  If it's third-party software, you'll need to contact the developer for an update or fix.  If the Finder is not working (how is it not working?), then you could try some of the tips in Understanding upgrade nightmares.
