How to allow cleanup actions to be taken by a reentrant clone before it is killed, when viewed via web server, because of a browser close?

Here is a question I'm having to luck with. I have a VI, set to be reentrant, which is published via the web server. The main VI instance is never interacted with: it makes a clone every time someone navigates to the proper URL, and the user interacts with the newly created clone (never the main instance). A clones is capable of configuring and calling instrument VI's when proper login credentials are entered, which results in browser popups that are controllable on the user's end (though only one user is ever doing this at a time. To clarify, multiple clones can be open simultaneously for login purposes, but only one user is ever interacting with the instruments, which aren't themselves reentrant).
If the user clicks my custom logout button in their browser, it is trivial to close these other, independent instruments and clean up properly. But if the user simply clicks the red X in their browser, there is no graceful shutdown and the instruments which the clone called stay open on the server, when they should be closing.
My experience so far:
No panel close? event seems to be triggered in the clone. The clone simply ceases to be.
The remote_panel_connections property doesn't seem to work correctly in this instance (I haven't had any luck so far), since it is possible for more than one clone to be active, and the main parent that is spawning the clones stays running but isn't interacted with in any way.
What I Need:
A way for the clone VI to recognize that the user has closed their browser, and communicate that it is closing to all active VI's before terminating.
I would like to avoid forcing the instruments that the clone calls to poll constantly to see if the clone VI is present on the network. If there is no other solution but this, I would appreciate a suggestion as to the least resource and code intensive way to implement this type of polling, as the instruments are really meant to be totally independent entities after they are called, rather than sub vi's.
Thanks for any input, let me know if more information is needed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hey MTdev,
Panel close? events cannot be triggered on a VI being viewed or controlled remotely. Some more information on that can be found in the help here:http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361E-01/lvprop/vi_panel_closeq/. My suggestion would be to set the Title Bar on the front panel of your remote VI to not be visible so that their only option for closing the window is to click the logout button. Are you using Remote Front Panels(http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3277) to do this instrument control? Using remote front panels allows you to manage a lot of the multiple people accesssing at the same-time type issues so it may be something to look into if you are not already using this method.

Photo Stream allowing images to be downloaded when viewed on web

I have created a photo stream with Aperature 3.4 and sent it to a freind that doesn't have a icloud account. When he receives the email and clicks on the Web link to view the images it works fine. He then clicks on the image to view it in the player and at the bottom there is a download button and he can then save it on his machine. I would like for people to see my images but not download them. Is this possible or should I find a better solution. Im worried about using it and having people steal my images that are copyrighted.
Thanks Ken

If that were solely the case, then why are there "public" photostream galleries available?
Do you have to ask? The public streams are for showing off your public photos to everybody, if you do not care who will be viewing them.
Shared streams, only viewable by carefully selected few persons are great to send your family photos to your relatives or photos from special events to your friends. And in this case you will want them to be able to download the photos.
The option to disable downloads should be provided, regardless.
That does not help much. You can always make a screenshot. A watermark will give more protection.

How to use the web server tips (connected/disconnected)?

Using the web server tips into a VI to know when a client is connected or disconnected.
Hello Everyone
I want to use the tips that appear when a remote user gets control of my VI via web server. That way I will be able to trigger some other operations as soon as the user gets in or out my VI. How can I extract the information that contains that (user has or has not control). I hope you can help me.
Regards
Marco Roman

There is a VI method called Remote Panel Client Connections. It returns an array of clusters with connection information and also has a Controller output. If the controller output is -1, no clients are connected.

How to configure additional action

Hi,
How to Configure additional action in a system where only one action is allowed for an employee in same day in IT0000, and what is the purpose of IT0302.
it will be helpful if any one shares the steps.
Thank you
Srihari

Hi,
Infotype 0302 Additional Actions allows you to automatically log all of the personnel action types that are performed for an employee on a specific date. It allows you to perform and document several personnel action types for an employee in the R/3 System on the same day.
You can display and edit the data records logged in the infotype Additional Actions (0302) on the list screen of the infotype Actions (0000),
In Customizing for Personnel Administration, choose menu path Setting Up Procedures -> Actions -> Set up personnel action types to specify, among other things, the following:
whether you want to use the automatic logging of personnel action types in the infotype Additional Actions (0302)
which personnel action type should be saved, that is preserved, in the infotype Actions (0000) if you perform another personnel action type for the employee on the same day.
You can check the link below for detailed procedure for config:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/dd/234b6e5733d1118b3f0060b03ca329/content.htm

URGENT!! How to unrestrict restricted actions at runtime??

Hi All,
I have a bpel process in which i restricted system actions like Reassign,
now the process is in the production environment,
i have to reassign user tasks to another one :
i tried via the bpel api using reassign() api an error told me that the action is restricted on this task, eventhough i logged in as bpeladmin who has the right to perform restricted actions for tasks he owns.
Please Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks

Hi,
well i figured out how to do it,
- just go to the domain folder in bpel, go to the temp directory then the folder of the process
- open the .task file of the task you want to allow an action for
- comment the action you want to allow in the "restrictedActions" tag
- restart the server

How to allow access to web service running under ApplicationPoolIdentity

Hi All,
I have a WCF web service hosted in IIS 7 (or maybe 7.5, whichever comes with Windows server 2008 R2) using DefaultAppPool running under ApplicationPoolIdentity per Microsoft's recommendation. The web service needs to call a stored procedure to insert data
to a db. The web server is on a different VM than the database server. The db server is running SQL 2008 R2. Both VMs run Windows server 2008 R2.
When the web service tries to connect to db, it encounters this exception:
Exception in InsertToDb()System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
Here's the connection string in web.config:
Application Name=somewebservice;Server=somewebserver;Integrated Security=SSPI;Database=somedatabase;Connection Timeout=60"
How should I configure SQL security to make this work?
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for the link Dan. Maybe I'm the one who cause the confusion :)
If I understand you(and Erland) correctly, you suggest using a custom, domain account for application pool identity. However, if we do that, our IT will need to maintain those accounts, and they don't want that. So I'm choosing a built-in account called
ApplicationPoolIdentity as the application pool identity, but it's not working. Network Service, on the other hand, works, but my boss wants us to follow MS's best practice.
What's puzzling is that according to this: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/624/application-pool-identities/, both Network Service and ApplicationPoolIdentity uses machine account to access network resource (like db in this case), but in my case, Network Service
works, but not ApplicationPoolIdentity.
Hallo Stephen,
with respect - it seems to me that only idiots are working at your IT ;)... It is absolutely useful to work with "service accounts" created within the domain. That's the only way to manage and control accounts!
If you want to "pass through" the identity of the web user (SSO) you have to check whether the app pool is set to "allow impersonate". As far as I understand the ApplicationPoolIdentity-function the app pool will create a unique user named as the service.
I assume that will not work with the connection to the sql server because this user is unknown.
Local Service will not work because it's restriction is located to the local machine.
Network Service will work because access to network resources will be available.
So my recommendation is to use a dedicated service account or impersonation:

How to allow access only from certain IPs?

I have Portal Server 6.0 on Sun ONE Web Server and want to allow access to it only from certain IPs, i.e. if my IP differs from predefined, then access is denied (no page is opened).
How can I implement this with minimal efforts?
Thanks in advance!

Where did you set the ACLs?
When webclients connect direct to the portal/ids this is pretty straight forward using htttpacl files. When SRAP GW's are used for Internet portal access the web or app-server never sees the client IP thus those ACLs don't get applied.
Am I missing something (won't be the first time... or the last:-)

how to configure?

Hi,
The ZBF link sent earlier show how we can inspect URI in http request
parameter-map type regex uri_regex_cm
pattern “.*cmd.exe”
class-map type inspect http uri_check_cm
match request uri regex uri_regex_cm
ZBf is the feature on Cisco routers and ASA though concepts are little same but works differently. However it is important that you can be more granular with the protocol (layer 7) inspection only. Like on ASA if you will try to restrict .exe file from a p2p application that won't be possible, But on router you have some application for p2p in NBAR and you can use it file filtering. Please check configuartion example for both devices.
Thanks

OSB : How can we copy actions from one project folder to other projects?

How can we copy actions from one project folder to other projects in OSB?
For eg:
I have a service call out action in Project1/proxySer1
I want to copy this to Project2/proxySer2.
Espicially, in our case error handling callout is common to all of our projects and we should be able to copy from one to another.
Edited by: user10367892 on Aug 20, 2009 12:28 PM

Thank you for the reply.
It was my fault. I was on two different servers, while i was doing this and so didn't work. But copy /past action works as you suggested.
Can I select multiple actions from one stage and paste to different proxy service? I have too many options to copy/paste and hence I have this question.
Is there any other way of copying all selected actions in one stage to another, but not the complete stage itselft?

How can i set action on UITaBar and get event from that

Hi All,
I m doing one apps in which i have to add three UITabBarItem and this is UITabBarSystemItem.
Now i cannot understand that how can i set action and get event from the?
And how can i set various views on three tab bar item.
I have to use UITabBar means i have to use UINavigationController+UITabBar
My code id
tabBar =[[UITabBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,370,320,50)];
tabBar.backgroundColor =[UIColor blackColor];
UITabBarItem *search =[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTabBarSystemItem:UITabBarSystemItemSearch tag:0];
UITabBarItem *recents =[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTabBarSystemItem:UITabBarSystemItemRecents tag:1];
UITabBarItem *favorites =[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTabBarSystemItem:UITabBarSystemItemFavorit es tag:2];
tabBar.items =[[NSArray arrayWithObjects:search,recents,favorites, nil] retain];
tabBar.selectedItem = search;
[myView addSubview:tabBar];
[tabBar release];
I add a action:
UITabBarItem *search =[[UITabBarItem alloc] InitWithTabBarSystemItem:UITabBarSystemItemSearch tag:0 action:@selector(select:)];
So it error: Warning -no'InitWithTabBarSystemItem:tag:action:' method fount
So any can help me regarding it?

Thanks RickMaddy very much.
I read and do with sample at the View Controller Programming Guide . But when run it only view TabBar with title but haven't got any TabBarItem on it. I searched a few example about TabBar and i did, but i want do a form with a button then press on button it view a form with 2 TabBarItem on TabBar and press each TabBarItem will show correlative form page 1, page 2.
UITabBarController *tabBarControl = [[[UITabBarController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil] autorelease];
tabBarControl.title = @"Tab bar";
ViewControl1 *view1 = [[[ViewControl1 alloc] initWithNibName:@"ViewControl1" bundle:nil] autorelease];
ViewControl1 *view2 = [[[ViewControl1 alloc] initWithNibName:@"ViewControl2" bundle:nil] autorelease];
tabBarControl.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:view1,view2,nil];
