Help needed for Extending ISA Web applications

Hi All,
I am working on CRM 5.0. Need some kind of step by step guide to enhance standard Web applications. For example,
Adding a new field. Changing the Layout etc.
If some one has already done this kind of modifications, please share the same with me.
It will be of immense  help to me
Please mail the same to [email protected]
Regards,
Eureka.

Hi,
You need to get the development and extension guide.
Have a look at this posting for details of how to find it.

  • How to implement Help System for an exit Web application

    I want to know detail steps to use OHW create a Help System for an exit ADF web application.
    I read a lot doc about Oracle Help.
    I down load the demo bundle and test it. It seems working. But it need to start separately. Also I do not know how to use it to build a help system for an exit ADF web application.
    Any body can help me to learn HOW with jdeveloper step by step.
    Thanks.

    Frank,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I checked the site that you mentioned.
    I try the sample “demo with bundle. The sample worked.
    But it needed to start separately with the application.
    I do not know how to build a help system with the existed web application developed with Jdeveloper (It has two projects: model and user-view-control. It is deployed on Oracle Application server).
    Could you help me step by step to build the help system?

  • Advice needed for provider hosted web application - authentication and access to SharePoint document library

    I haven't done SharePoint 2013 development with claims so I apologize in advance if my assumptions and questions are way out in left field.
    I'm trying to understand SharePoint 2013 claims authentication for a scenario that involves:
    A SharePoint provided hosted (web forms) app that will pull information and assets (e.g. PDFs) from SharePoint into the web page.
    It will be a VS 2012 solution with asp.net.identity feature.
    Security will be set for internal users, federated external users and forms-based external users.  Based on their security and (claim type) role it will define what information and assets that can be retrieved from SharePoint
    I have looked through MSDN and other sources to understand.
    This one helped with my understanding 
    Federated Identity for Web Applications and assumed that the general concept could be applied to forms-based identity for non-Federated external users .
    What I have now:
    VS 2012 solution web forms application set to Provider Host with asp.net.identity feature and its required membership tables.
    I can create new users and associate claims to the new user.
    I can log in with a user from the membership tables and it will take me to a default.aspx page.  I have added code to it that displays the claims associated to a user.
    For POC purposes I'd like to retrieve documents that are associated to this user from the default.aspx page.
    This is where I am having trouble understanding:  Is my understand correct?
    Internal users
    since they are internal on the network i am assuming that they would already have access to SharePoint and they would already be configured to what documents that they have available to them.
    Federated external users & Forms authentication external users
    it seems to me that the authentication for external users are separate from SharePoint authentication process.
    changes to the configuration settings are necessary in SharePoint, IIS, web application.
    I believe this is what i read.
    claims processes (e.g. mappings) need to be set up in SharePoint
    as long as external users are authenticated then things are ok b/c they would have claims associated to the user and the configuration in SharePoint takes are of the rest.
    This statement bothers me because I think it's wrong.
    So basically i'm stuck with if my understanding is correct: once a user is authenticated either by federated identity or asp.net.identity authentication that it should go to the provider hosted default.aspx page because the claim is authenticated and means
    that it should have access to it and the SharePoint document library based on some claim property.  I could then write the calls to retrieve from a document library and SharePoint will know based on some claim property that the logged in user can only
    access certain documents.
    It just sounds too good to be true and that i'm missing something in the thought process.
    Thanks in advance for taking the time to read.

    Hi GreenWasabi,
    i agree this is an interesting topic to discuss,
    as you can check from the article, you may check this example from the codeplex:http://claimsid.codeplex.com/
    when i thinking regarding this topic, its looks like an environment with multiple of realms,
    from what you understand, its correct that all the authentication is based from the provider, so for example i have a windows live ID and internal ID, then when i login windows live ID, it will be authenticated using windows live ID server.
    here is the example for the webservice:
    http://claimsid.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Federated%20Identity%20for%20Web%20Services&referringTitle=Home
    as i know, if you using this federated, i am not quite sure that you will need to go to the provider page literally, perhaps you can check this example if we are using azure:

  • Beginner Question - Help Needed for EJB QL Sample Application

    I'm working with a group of student interns, like myself, and we've been given an assignment to work with Oracle. All of us have no training or experience with this, so we're just learning as we go.
    I've been trying to run the EJB QL Sample Application (http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/ejb_corba/ejbql/Install.html), but I keep running into problems at step 3.
    Now, we will deploy the sample application onto OC4J. Open another command prompt and go to the folder <OC4J_HOME>/j2ee/home and run the following commands one-by-one
    > java -jar admin.jar ormi://<machine_name>:<admin_port> admin <admin_pwd> -deploy -file <SAMPLE_HOME>/build/ejbql.ear -deploymentName Ejbql
    > java -jar admin.jar ormi://<machine_name>:<admin_port> admin <admin_pwd> -bindWebApp Ejbql ejbql-war http-web-site /ejbql
    where,
    <machine_name>      Name of the machine where OC4J Server is running
    <admin_port>      Admin Port on which the OC4J server listens. This value by default is 23791 unless explicitly changed by the user
    <admin_pwd>      Adminstrator password to access OC4J. The default value is welcome
    When I do this step I get this error:

    George,
    The Readme.html file is available with the ejbqlsample.jar downloadable (Extract and find the doc in Ejbql\docs\Readme.html) which is printable.
    Or,
    If you are trying to print the file directly from OTN site, you need to set the Page-Setup Orientation to 'Landscape'.
    Hope this helps.

  • Urgent.... Help Needed for Storing file in Application Server

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where in I have to save a file in Application Server.
    File is of 141 Character Length, so there can be spaces left at the end.
    When I am downloading the file into Application Sever and then downloading the same file from Application Server to Presentation into a notepad then the spaces at the end are truncating.
    I want that the file that is generated should be of 141 character though if there may be spaces at the end.
    It will be great if you can help me out in this.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Jayant Sahu.

    when downloading to App server, you need to specify the LENGTH option on your TRANSFER ststement to keep fixed length.  You must also use a STRING type variable in your transfer.
    From Documentation on Transfer command:
    <b>If the file was opened as a text file or a legacy text file, the trailing blank characters are deleted for all data objects, except for those of data type string. The line end marker defined when the file was opened is then added to the remaining content of the data object or to the result of the conversion, and the final result is written byte-by-byte to the file.</b>
    There also used to be a problem with WS_DOWNLOAD - you had to do the following:
    Maintaining Trailing spaces when downloading to PC
    Before calling DOWNLOAD or WS_DOWNLOAD, do a perform SET_TRAIL_BLANKS(saplgrap) using 'X'
    To set the length of each record including your blanks add this code: perform SET_FIXLEN(saplgrap) using '0' '100'
    Don't think this is needed any more.

    By defining this element, means that every manager will be changed.
    So when running a cluster, only make sure that you have webapps in there
    that need to be clustered and remove the other ones.
    A cluster has the following parameters:
    className = the fully qualified name of the cluster class
    name = a descriptive name for your cluster, can be anything
    mcastAddr = the multicast address, has to be the same for all the nodes
    mcastPort = the multicast port, has to be the same for all the nodes
    mcastBindAddr = bind the multicast socket to a specific address
    mcastTTL = the multicast TTL if you want to limit your broadcast
    mcastSoTimeout = the multicast readtimeout
    mcastFrequency = the number of milliseconds in between sending a "I'm alive" heartbeat
    mcastDropTime = the number a milliseconds before a node is considered "dead" if no heartbeat is received
    tcpThreadCount = the number of threads to handle incoming replication requests, optimal would be the same amount of threads as nodes
    tcpListenAddress = the listen address (bind address) for TCP cluster request on this host,
    in case of multiple ethernet cards.
    auto means that address becomes
    InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress()
    tcpListenPort = the tcp listen port
    tcpSelectorTimeout = the timeout (ms) for the Selector.select() method in case the OS
    has a wakup bug in java.nio. Set to 0 for no timeout
    printToScreen = true means that managers will also print to std.out
    expireSessionsOnShutdown = true means that
    useDirtyFlag = true means that we only replicate a session after setAttribute,removeAttribute has been called.
    false means to replicate the session after each request.
    false means that replication would work for the following piece of code: (only for SimpleTcpReplicationManager)
    <%
    HashMap map = (HashMap)session.getAttribute("map");
    map.put("key","value");
    %>
    replicationMode = can be either 'pooled', 'synchronous' or 'asynchronous'.
    * Pooled means that the replication happens using several sockets in a synchronous way. Ie, the data gets replicated, then the request return. This is the same as the 'synchronous' setting except it uses a pool of sockets, hence it is multithreaded. This is the fastest and safest configuration. To use this, also increase the nr of tcp threads that you have dealing with replication.
    * Synchronous means that the thread that executes the request, is also the
    thread the replicates the data to the other nodes, and will not return until all
    nodes have received the information.
    * Asynchronous means that there is a specific 'sender' thread for each cluster node,
    so the request thread will queue the replication request into a "smart" queue,
    and then return to the client.
    The "smart" queue is a queue where when a session is added to the queue, and the same session
    already exists in the queue from a previous request, that session will be replaced
    in the queue instead of replicating two requests. This almost never happens, unless there is a
    large network delay.
    -->
    <!--
    When configuring for clustering, you also add in a valve to catch all the requests
    coming in, at the end of the request, the session may or may not be replicated.
    A session is replicated if and only if all the conditions are met:
    1. useDirtyFlag is true or setAttribute or removeAttribute has been called AND
    2. a session exists (has been created)
    3. the request is not trapped by the "filter" attribute
    The filter attribute is to filter out requests that could not modify the session,
    hence we don't replicate the session after the end of this request.
    The filter is negative, ie, anything you put in the filter, you mean to filter out,
    ie, no replication will be done on requests that match one of the filters.
    The filter attribute is delimited by ;, so you can't escape out ; even if you wanted to.
    filter=".*\.gif;.*\.js;" means that we will not replicate the session after requests with the URI
    ending with .gif and .js are intercepted.
    The deployer element can be used to deploy apps cluster wide.
    Currently the deployment only deploys/undeploys to working members in the cluster
    so no WARs are copied upons startup of a broken node.
    The deployer watches a directory (watchDir) for WAR files when watchEnabled="true"
    When a new war file is added the war gets deployed to the local instance,
    and then deployed to the other instances in the cluster.
    When a war file is deleted from the watchDir the war is undeployed locally
    and cluster wide

    I have set the context path to /tdm in the server.xml file. Should this be placed in context.xml?

    I am using Tomcat 5.5 and Jdk 1.5.0_12 and Oracle 10g. I am using jdbc-odbc bridge connection
    to connect to the database. I have placed my project folder called
    tdm under the webapps folder in Tomcat. This 'tdm' folder consists of
    a collection of html pages,jsp pages and images of my project. Also I created a
    WEB-INF folderand in that I have lib folder which contains catalina-root.jar
    , classes12.jar and nls_charset.jar files. And also in the WEB-INF folder I have the web.xml
    file which looks like this

    By defining this element, means that every manager will be changed.
    So when running a cluster, only make sure that you have webapps in there
    that need to be clustered and remove the other ones.
    A cluster has the following parameters:
    className = the fully qualified name of the cluster class
    name = a descriptive name for your cluster, can be anything
    mcastAddr = the multicast address, has to be the same for all the nodes
    mcastPort = the multicast port, has to be the same for all the nodes
    mcastBindAddr = bind the multicast socket to a specific address
    mcastTTL = the multicast TTL if you want to limit your broadcast
    mcastSoTimeout = the multicast readtimeout
    mcastFrequency = the number of milliseconds in between sending a "I'm alive" heartbeat
    mcastDropTime = the number a milliseconds before a node is considered "dead" if no heartbeat is received
    tcpThreadCount = the number of threads to handle incoming replication requests, optimal would be the same amount of threads as nodes
    tcpListenAddress = the listen address (bind address) for TCP cluster request on this host,
    in case of multiple ethernet cards.
    auto means that address becomes
    InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress()
    tcpListenPort = the tcp listen port
    tcpSelectorTimeout = the timeout (ms) for the Selector.select() method in case the OS
    has a wakup bug in java.nio. Set to 0 for no timeout
    printToScreen = true means that managers will also print to std.out
    expireSessionsOnShutdown = true means that
    useDirtyFlag = true means that we only replicate a session after setAttribute,removeAttribute has been called.
    false means to replicate the session after each request.
    false means that replication would work for the following piece of code: (only for SimpleTcpReplicationManager)
    <%
    HashMap map = (HashMap)session.getAttribute("map");
    map.put("key","value");
    %>
    replicationMode = can be either 'pooled', 'synchronous' or 'asynchronous'.
    * Pooled means that the replication happens using several sockets in a synchronous way. Ie, the data gets replicated, then the request return. This is the same as the 'synchronous' setting except it uses a pool of sockets, hence it is multithreaded. This is the fastest and safest configuration. To use this, also increase the nr of tcp threads that you have dealing with replication.
    * Synchronous means that the thread that executes the request, is also the
    thread the replicates the data to the other nodes, and will not return until all
    nodes have received the information.
    * Asynchronous means that there is a specific 'sender' thread for each cluster node,
    so the request thread will queue the replication request into a "smart" queue,
    and then return to the client.
    The "smart" queue is a queue where when a session is added to the queue, and the same session
    already exists in the queue from a previous request, that session will be replaced
    in the queue instead of replicating two requests. This almost never happens, unless there is a
    large network delay.
    -->
    <!--
    When configuring for clustering, you also add in a valve to catch all the requests
    coming in, at the end of the request, the session may or may not be replicated.
    A session is replicated if and only if all the conditions are met:
    1. useDirtyFlag is true or setAttribute or removeAttribute has been called AND
    2. a session exists (has been created)
    3. the request is not trapped by the "filter" attribute
    The filter attribute is to filter out requests that could not modify the session,
    hence we don't replicate the session after the end of this request.
    The filter is negative, ie, anything you put in the filter, you mean to filter out,
    ie, no replication will be done on requests that match one of the filters.
    The filter attribute is delimited by ;, so you can't escape out ; even if you wanted to.
    filter=".*\.gif;.*\.js;" means that we will not replicate the session after requests with the URI
    ending with .gif and .js are intercepted.
    The deployer element can be used to deploy apps cluster wide.
    Currently the deployment only deploys/undeploys to working members in the cluster
    so no WARs are copied upons startup of a broken node.
    The deployer watches a directory (watchDir) for WAR files when watchEnabled="true"
    When a new war file is added the war gets deployed to the local instance,
    and then deployed to the other instances in the cluster.
    When a war file is deleted from the watchDir the war is undeployed locally
    and cluster wide

  • "SSO" for non-sap web application using SAPGUI to browse?

    I have a web application (non SAP) and the user base are also SAP users in an ABAP system.
    To strengthen the authentication in the web app, I wanted to implement SSO 
    authentication as we pity the users for having to remember so many strong pw's and I
    dont like LDAP based pw sync or other technology I dont understand, because then we are
    just yet another application with the same pw...
    We are having technical problems implementing SSO on the web app side, and are anyway a
    bit sceptical about the user admin / role admin assignment if we get it to work.
    So I have created a transaction in SAP which browses the web app and the intention is to
    send the SAP sy-uname as the web app user. We can control this using s_tcode, and
    an own auth object on the WAS side and a check on the session type before the connection is
    established. In this sense we are dependent on the SAP concept implemented, but even so:
    The role assignment is controlled in the web app itself -> so assume that I am not overly
    worried about unauthorized access to the web application, as they would not have any
    system role for it as their sy-uname does not exist. (Infact we can monitor this)
    The browser on the front end is the SAPGUI with html controls on the SAP side.
    I would be interested in knowing whether anyone else has experience with this approach, and
    whether there are any areas to be carefull of?
    I would also like to know whether this is a strategic error?
    Kind regards,
    Julius

    Hi Julius,
    well, if that web application would run on the same ABAP backend system then the solution described in <a href="http://service.sap.com/~iron/fm/011000358700000431401997E/0612670">SAP Note 612670</a> would be applicable:
    a so-called "Re-entrance ticket" (based on the "SAP logon ticket" SSO proceedings) is issued, transported via the SAPGUI connection and back to the system via the invoked HTML control.
    But for non-SAP web applications that does not help.
    In that case only X.509 client certificates can be used for SSO. Actually, the web application could then also be invoked directly (independent from the SAPGUI session). The user is authenticated based on the X.509 client certificate - and not based on the ABAP userID (of the SAPGUI session).
    Well, if you don't mind the effort you could also use the "SAP Logon Ticket evaluation library" (sapssoext, see <a href="http://service.sap.com/~iron/fm/011000358700000431401997E/0304450">SAP Note 304450</a>) to evalute the SAP logon ticket externally. You'll then need to have a "stub application" at the ABAP side that triggers the http redirect to your external web application. Not a nice solution but a possible one.
    In the future SAML browser artifacts would be an option (preferable to integrate non-SAP applications). But currently that's not available (for NWAS ABAP).
    Cheers, Wolfgang

  • How to create different log files for each of web applications deployed in OC4J

    Hi All,
    I am using OC4J(from Oracle) v1.0.2.2 and Windows2000. Now I want to know
    1. how to create different log files for each of my deployed web applications ?
    2. what are the advantages in running multiple instances of oc4j and in what case we should run
    multiple instances of OC4J ?
    3. how to run OC4J as Windows2000 Service rather than Windows2000 Application ?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kumar.

    Hi Avi,
    First of all I have given a first reading to log4j and I think there will some more easy way of logging debugging messages than log4j (If you could provide me a detailed explanation of a servlet,jsp,java bean that uses log4j and how to use log4j then it will be very helpful for me). The other easy ways (if I am not using log4j) to my problem i.e creating different log files for each of web applications deployed in oc4j are
    I have created multiple instances of OC4J that are configured to run on different ports and so on each instance I have deployed a single web application . And I started the 2 oc4j instances by transferring thier error/log messages to a file. And the other way is ..
    I have download from jakarta site a package called servhelper . This servhelper is a thread that is started in a startup servlet and stopped in the destroy method of that startup servlet. So this thread will automatically capture all the system.out.println's and will print those to a file. I believe that this thread program is synchronized. So in this method I need not run multiple instances of OC4J instead each deployed web application on single instance of oc4j uses the same thread program (ofcourse a copy of thread program is put in each of the deployed web applications directories) to log messages on to different log files.
    Can you comment on my above 2 approached to logging debugging messages and a compartive explanation to LOG4J and how to use LOG4J using a simple servlet, simple jsp is appreciated ...
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravi.

  • How to disable u201Csticky sessionu201D for the particular web application?

    Hi All,
    Is there a possibility to disable so called u201Csticky sessionu201D for the particular web application? We have deployed a WAR file with the Axis 1.4 based web service into SAP NW 7.1. The web service works fine but when the client makes SOAP request the server creates a so-called u201Cstickyu201D HTTP session with the default (30 minutes) timeout. Such u201Csessionsu201D are created on each SOAP request from the same client. The maximum number for Java Web Sessions (SAP Management Console) is 1000. After a while the clients start getting the u201C503 Service not availableu201D errors:
    503 Service not available.
    Error: -6
    Version: 7010
    Component: ICM Java
    Date/Time: Tue Mar 03 14:30:12 2009 
    Module: http_j2ee2.c
    Line: 1166
    Server: XXXXXXXXXXX
    Error Tag:
    Detail: server overload: no more sessions available
    The only way to improve the situation we found so far was to set session timeout to 1 minute. That u201Csticky sessionu201D will still be created, though.
    This is a testing environment and we do not use any hardware/software loadbalancer. 
    Any help/advice is appreciated. (Please let me know if you need more information.)
    Thanks,
    Dmitry Vasilenko

    The practical workaround we finally come up with for this problem was to create a servlet filter and map it to the AxisServlet. The servlet filter will invalidate the HTTP session and effectively destroy the sticky session created by the server on each SOAP request.
    Here is the fragment from the web.xml
    <filter>
      <filter-name>StickySessionFilter</filter-name>
      <filter-class>com.xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxx.services.StickySessionFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>
    <filter-mapping>
      <filter-name> StickySessionFilter </filter-name>
      <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name>
    </filter-mapping>
    <servlet>
      <servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    The doFilter() method looks like this:
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
           try {
                  chain.doFilter(request, response);
           } finally {
                         javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest httpRequest = (javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)request;
                         javax.servlet.http.HttpSession session = httpRequest.getSession();
                         session.invalidate();
    Thanks,

  • Tools for Developing Rich Web Applications

    What tools are others using to Develop Web applications
    against BW 3.5? I have a few years of experience developing web applications using Visual Studio .NET and C#, but the .net PDK is not an option in our current environment.
    I was thinking that writing jsp's would give me the flexibility I needed to develop Rich web applications, but being new to SAP BW I am not sure.
    I am looking for tools in which I can control result sets, write logical code based on users information to filter and return data.
    Please list technologies and Languages.

    Hi Jimmy.  As it relates to SAP,  you can use a couple different technologies.   JSP on the java side, or BSP on the ABAP side will allow you to do pretty much anything you want.  It allows you to use HTML and javascript and also HTMLB.   You could also use Web Dynpro.  Web Dynpro is SAP's new UI strategy.  It is designed to help you create business transactions, so the UI elements are stardard and cannot be modified.  But its cool, because you drag/drop your ui elements in the layout.  Web Dynpro allows you to create robust web applications without coding the UI and allows you to focus on the business logic.  Of course there is some coding to handle UI, and flow, but not as much as when you are developing JSP or BSP.

  • Help needed for writing query

    help needed for writing query
    i have the following tables(with data) as mentioned below
    FK*-foregin key (SUBJECTS)
    FK**-foregin key (COMBINATION)
    1)SUBJECTS(table name)     
    SUB_ID(NUMBER) SUB_CODE(VARCHAR2) SUB_NAME (VARCHAR2)
    2           02           Computer Science

    9           09           Biology
    2)COMBINATION

    383           S1      9           4           2           3
    384           S2      4           2           5           3
    ---------I actually designed the ABOVE table also like this
    3) a)COMBINATION
    COMB_ID(NUMBER) COMB_NAME(VARCHAR2)
    383           S1
    384           S2
    b)COMBINATION_DET
    COMBDET_ID(NUMBER) COMB_ID(FK**) SUB_ID(FK*)
    1               383          9
    2               383          4
    3               383          2
    4               383          3
    5               384          4
    6               384          2          
    7               384          5
    8               384          3
    Business rule: a combination consists of a maximum of 4 subjects (must contain)
    and the user is less relevant to a COMB_NAME(name of combinations) but user need
    the subjects contained in combinations
    i need the following output
    COMB_ID COMB_NAME SUBJECT1 SUBJECT2      SUBJECT3      SUBJECT4
    383     S1     Biology Chemistry      Computer Science Physics
    384     S2     Chemistry Computer Science Mathematics Physics
    or even this is enough(what i actually needed)
    COMB_ID     subjects
    383           Biology,Chemistry,Computer Science,Physics
    384           Chemistry,Computer Science,Mathematics,Physics
    you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
    and i want to know
    1)which design is good in this case
    (i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
    good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
    detail table is not neccessary )
    now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

  • Extending a web application to port 80

    Hello -
    I have a web application running on port 80.  The associated IIS site is http://sharepoint
    I want to extend the web application to port 80 and use a different URL:  http://isharepoint
    The authentication schema will stay the same (classic NTLM).
    I assume I enter http://isharepoint as the host header and use port 80, correct?
    Do I need a new IP address and a new DNS entry, or do I just set up a CNAME that points to an existing name?
    thanks

    Assuming that sharepoint is the current host header then yes you can extend to isharepoint on port 80 with isharepoint being the new host header.  You don't need a new IP address, but will need a new DNS entry and it should be an A record not a CNAME.

  • Is the Adobe Air Packager for Desktop or Web Application Apps?

    Is the Adobe Air Packager for desktop or web applications?
    I'm testing the RoboHelp Adobe Air packager and noticed that
    it produces an *.exe file that must be launched locally. This makes
    it seem like it's only an alternative to the *.CHM format for
    desktop applications?
    Is there a way to link to webhelp topics packaged using Adobe
    Air to provide context-sensitive help (CSH) for a web application
    running on a remote server? Supposedly the Adobe Air packager has
    CSH capabilities, but I've found zero documentation on how to set
    this up.

    Hi Dirk.
    Peter Grainge has an article on Air's use on his
    site.

  • Can you enable both Windows Based Authentication and Forms Based Authenication for the same web application?

    Hello Community
        In WS2012 and SharePoint 2013 Server is it possible when creating a
    web application to enable both Windows Based Authentication/Negotiate
    (Kerberos) and enable Forms Based Authentication or does the web application
    use either one or the other?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut 

    Yes , you can use dual authentication on same web application. You can use same web application , at OOB login page you will have option to use windows or form login.
    Or you can extend your web application to a new web app and configure extended web application to use Form Based Authentication(Note extended web application will also show same content database , so the content will same only url will be different)
