Firewall Blocking Wiki for ONE User

This is a very bizarre issue that I hope someone can help with. We're running 10.6.8 server to host our internal wiki. We had the firewall enabled on that machine without any issues. Last week one user wasn't able to get onto the wiki. In troubleshooting their workstation I found they couldn't access the wiki via Safari under any user account (including a fresh test account). They *could* access it through another browser (Chrome + FF). They could also access sharepoints on that server. I deleted some Safari system-wide prefs to no avail.
For kicks, I disabled the firewall on the server and they could access the wiki via Safari. So, I assumed it was the adaptive firewall. I checked the AF blacklist file but her machine wasn't on it. In spite of that I whitelisted the user's machine, no change. I disabled the adaptive firewall altogether, no change. I enabled logging for denied packets and watched when her machine connected. Four ports were blocked, 4097,2052,17500,5353. I've temporarily created a FW rule to allow those ports, no change. I then tried keeping the firewall on but allowing all connections and she still couldn't access the wiki from Safari on her machine.
I'm stumped. It seems like it should be the adaptive firewall but that makes no sense when there's nothing in the blacklist file and the AF is disabled. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I realize she can use Chrome or FF as a workaround for now but it should be a resolvable issue.

Adam, the basic content filter on RV082 does not support the scenario your described. However the ProtectLink Web subscription does allow you to specify select IP addresses to be exempt from the url filter.

OBIEE/EBS R12 - works, except for one user - ORA-06512 error

OBIEE 10.3.1.4 / EBS 12.0.4

We are successfully using EBS integration with OBIEE, but for one user that we have created it doesn't work. When they try to access OBIEE from EBS we get this error in NQServer.log:

It is only for one user that has the problem. All others users work fine.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
Our EBS DBA has checked that the above sql can be run with the session set to the problem user, and compared with a user who can successfully connect to OBIEE. The results were the same for both.

I was on the wrong lines with this one.
The error in the NQServer.log was not from the problem user, it was a separate user.
The real cause of a specific user not being able to login was a corrupt web catalog (which we're still trying to resolve)

After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

After installing Mountain Lion, why is there Yahoo access for one user but not another?--both are administrators.

We've had several instances where we have had to run chkdsk on arrays with over 1m files. Average completion time is approximately 72 hours. The maximum downtime window they have available is the 64 hour weekend window. File sizes and number of files were
much smaller then than they are now.
The idea, in theory, was to use VHDs to compartmentalize the data into smaller volumes which could be more easily managed. It would also improve performance when transferring these compartments of data as they would use sequential read/write rather than
fragmented/random. This idea was never fleshed out in entirety, they don't split data up into little containers, but simply into big ones per project. Hence the 11m files in one container that I am currently trying to diagnose.
Some other important facts: The VHD in question is mounted in B:/project/ as this server also allows remote workers to log in, but they are restricted to see only data in E:. Disks A-D are hidden via group policy.
Update: icacls is failing on a large number of files within this dataset. I counted the path characters to ensure it wasn't the 255 character limit I was encountering and verified that the paths being blocked are only about 150 characters long. Once it finishes,
I'll have to try taking ownership and then re-running it. At this point I still have no idea how long to expect. I'm running out of time as the environment will be in use again at 9AM tomorrow morning.

Role content is displayed as blank screen for one user

Hello,
Portal version is 6.0 SP 18.
A page (content 2 iviews; one iView is UWL) was added to a role and assigned to users. Although everybody can see the page via role on the portal, one user gets blank window. Page is not displayed for her and no error message is shown. But if the same user previews the portal page under the portal content, teh same page is displayed properly.
Where can this blocking be for this user? I clean cache of UWL and all personalizations; role removed from user and added again. Also I removed the page from role and add again as Deltalink. Result is the same.
I am waiting your reactions, thanks in advance.

Mesut

Hi Mesut,
check below blog which resolves issue
iView works when previewed but is blanked when assigned to a role/page.

Tacacs authentication fails for one user account for only one switch

Hi,
I am having an scenario, where as Tacacs authentication fails for one user account for only one switch.
The same user account works well for other devices.
The AAA configs are same on every devices in the network.
Heres the show tacacs output from the switch where only one user account fails;

What could be the reason ?
No errors on ACS server; same rights had been given to the user account.
Thanks to advise.

Hi there,
Does the user get authenticated in the ACS logs?
reports and activity----> failed attempts
ro
reports and activity-----> passed authentications
That will help narrow it down.

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

I hope this discussion can be revived. I have the same problem. There seem to be quite a few Japanese sites that don't bother specifying their encoding. Perhaps they are older and from a time when it was not necessary to adhere to standards. Examples: http://www1.plala.or.jp/CUE/cave_yozawa.html, http://chigaku.web.fc2.com/saitama/sanchi/youzawa/youzawa.html. Happy to upload screenshots, but how?
Is there a way to tell Safari what encoding to use if the web page fails to do that?

Account search functinality is not working for one user in portal

Hi friends,
We have configured E.P 7.0 with CRM 5.0 and configured CRM PCUI business package.
We have a role called <b>accounts and products</b> in portal. So accounts can be searched in this role.
Now our severity issue is for one of the super user,for ex su1, accounts search is not working in portal but the same is working in CRM GUI.
for example if we search for an account 233445(or any other account) in portal its showing no data found but if we search with the same criteria data is displaying CRM GUI.
We have checked with other 2 super ids. Both ends portal and gui search is working fine.
Am unable to figure out whats the cause of the issue as search is not working only for one user su1 .
we have checked by restarting the server also to clear the memory cache.But still search is not working in portal.
Could anyone of u please advice ASAP as this is severity issue.
Thanks & Regards
Sireesha.

Hi srinivas,
I have checked both the users credentials,permissions,groups in the GUI and also in the portal.
Both of the users profiles are assigned as same.
Could you please advice is there any other way to check it out?

JSP page doesnt load for one user on machine1, but does 4 all on same box

Hi,
I have a Citrix application on a box to enable many users to connect remotely to different applications on differnt boxes using the browser on this box. Just like terminal Services or remote desktop
I tested 15 users and all of them are able to login to the machine and able to open a jsp page of an application located on a differernt box using the browser on this box.
But for one user I am facing an issue. For this user, I am not able to get the page and instead I only see a message as "page loading" and nothing more than that, Its getting stuck there itself with no progress.
Please help me,
Thanks a lot in advance,
Srinivas.

Hi,
I suspect there is something missing as far as the JRE for this guy is concerned. Sothing to do with permissions. java policy, security etc.
I am not sure if that helps. I am not in the development of the application, and will check with those guys. I only neeed to provode support on this machine and be able to give access to that application which is on Linux. The browser is in Windows machine,
Thanks,
Srinivas.

Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - not working for one user - working for another

Hi,
I recently have an issue with Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - NOT working for one user - working for another.
Windows 7 updates recently installed ???
By checking the device properties on the user that works - "Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad 13/10/2011 Version 15.3.29.0"
When the other user logs on, the touchpad works for a few seconds, then a displays a black square with a red diagonal line through it, then the touchpad won't respond. Trying to use the keypad to navigate to system diagnosics or anything to find further info is useless....

Hey eagle_no11,
Thank you for joining the HP Support Community!
I will do my best in assisting to hopefully get the TouchPad to work on the second user profile.
What I would like to start off with, is to restore the original Synaptics drivers onto the profile that is not working correctly. I have included the document Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7).
Once you have installed the original drivers, you will need to complete all updates from both HP, as well as Windows. For these updates, if you open the HP Support Assistant, and select Maintain, you should see an option for updating.
Please let me know how these steps do work out for you.
Have a great day!

ODBC--connection to 'SQL Serverservername' failed for one user but not another

In Win7, we're linking tables in an MS Access 2010 db to tables in a SQL Server 2008 R2 db. The driver user by the File dsn is SQL Server version 6.01.7601.17514 & we're using SQL Server Authentication.
For some reason, one user gets the msg "ODBC--connection to 'SQL Serverservername' failed" before they're even asked for a password, but for other users, the prompt comes up and when they uncheck the Windows Auth box, they enter their password
and connect successfully to the SQL Server db. Both users have db_datareader access to the SQL Server db.
I had the user that gets the error msg log onto my PC and they get the same error (yet it works for me.)
This user was, however, able to successfully relink the tables, but then when we closed the access db and opened it again, the user got the "ODBC--connection..." error agin.
I'm stumped as to why this is happening for one user.

Hello Knellen,
Please help to collect more log information regarding this issue, such as windows event log, SQL Sever log information. They are helpful for us to troubleshoot it.

Safari works for one user but not another on same computer

MacBook with multiple user accounts. Safari (and Firefox) work fine for one user but are unable to open web pages when the other user is logged in. The error in Safar is "Safari can't open the page "http://xxxxxxxxx/" because it could not connect to the server "/xxxxxxx/" . DNS is working for this user. I am able to ping any number of sites from Terminal. Network Preference pane is configured to not require any proxy. This is a case of it was working but now it's not.
Can anybody help with this? I know I can fix this by simply creating another user and transfering the affected user's data to the new account but I would rather not. TIA

HI Bob,
You can test your settings by clicking the big "Test My DNS" button at <https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy>. If you see "Poor" on any of the tests, don't use that domain name server! Remove it from Apple Menu => System Preferences =>Network =>DNS Servers or similar location in your router if you've got a 'home network'. If all you have is "poor" DNS servers in your list, call your ISP and insist that they give you the address of a name server which is protected against the recently exposed DNS cache-poisoning threat.
Also, open System Preferences/Network. Click the DNS tab. Add these numbers in the DNS Servers box.

How to open multiple sessions for one user?

Sorry for the silly question but I couldn't find it googling or searching through this forum, so I started wondering whether it's possible in SQL Developer to open multiple sessions for one user. I'm fairly new to SQL Developer and databases in general.
When I open SQL Developer and connect to a schema, a worksheet opens named MYSCHEMA. If I disconnect then connect, another worksheet opens, named MYSCHEMA~1. I assumed these were different sessions, but if I enter into one worksheet:
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 1
update my_table set col1 = 0 where row_id = 1
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 0and then enter into the second worksheet:
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1
-- shows result is 0I would have expected the second worksheet to report 1 because the first worksheet did not issue a COMMIT. Thus, I'd guess both worksheets are the same session? Is that right? If so, how do I have two sessions open simultaneously (opened by same user)?
I'm trying to implement the code at the bottom of this post, for which testing requires at least two sessions:

Thanks Jim,
Ctrl-Shift-N doesn't do anything for me. I'm on a mac -- by experimenting it looks like command-N does what you're looking for. This appears to be the same as left-clicking on the "New" icon in the top left corner of SQL Developer, or selecting from the pull-down menu, File > New.
This opens "Create a New" window that appears to be a wizard. What would I select at this point? Options are: Database Connection, Table, View, Package, ...
I don't see an option for "Worksheet".
UPDATE:
OK, I found that if I select "SQL File", a worksheet becomes available. Perhaps this is what you intended. However, when I issue the command
select col1 from my_table where row_id = 1;it still returns 0 instead of 1. Hmm, maybe my initial assumption was wrong -- if this is a second (e.g. different) session, should I expect the changes made in the first session in SQL Developer (the UPDATE command) WITHOUT a commit, to be observed in this second session? I thought that changes made in one session were not viewable in a different session until these changes are committed in the first session? If so, how to show this in SQL Developer? I must be missing something basic here.
Or, is SQL Developer issuing some sort of "auto-commit" without my knowledge?

Find not working in GW 7 for one user

The Find option does not show any results for one user. It works on Archived items. The user does have 14,000 sent items alone. Any step to take to fix this issue without having to recreate their account. Ran an analyse/fix and structural rebuild that didn't work.

You could try going into the Display Properties of any folder, select the
Find Results entry from the list and press Delete. Sometimes that entry
can get corrupted and needs to be recreated, which will happen next time
you run a Find.
