How to choose different SSO/OID resource name - when start application?

Background
We are new to 10g(10.1.2.0.2)
We have an environment where we have a front end 10g application (set of screens, menus, reports etc) that we like to be able to run against different backends. Eg one database for one set of data and another database with a different set of data.
We have several users and we created one SSO/OID account/username for each person and one resource type for each username/password@database that they need to have access to. We decided to name the resource type with the same name as the database – for ease of memory.
The first time that a person logs on, enters their SSO u/p SSO asks the users for their “default” u/p@db – since the formsweb.cfg’s ssoDynamicResourceCreate=true. This creates yet another resource in SSO/OID for the user. From then on the people never get the option to go into one of the other databases – ie to use one of their other SSO/OID resources.
We do not want any passwords to be written into the formsweb.cfg file.
Question
How can we get our people to use SSO to open their front end but be able to chose a “non default” resource to open the application against a different backend/database?
Ta

Oracle Forms can use only a resource with a name equal to the config section you are using to start your application. This in contrast to reports where the SSOCONN parameter can be used to differentiate between resources.
The solution is to use a different config section for each environment. You can for example make an html page on which you have a link to all environments, each of these pointing to a url with a different config.

  • How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard

    How to retain numerical order (Of file names) when combining files in Acrobat (9) Standard, please see the attached screenshot for a clearer explanation.
    I understand that if we prefix all files with leading zero's this will probably resolve the issue but I just wondered if anyone new the answer. The ironic situation is that version 6 has no problem.
    I have spent over an hour with techincal support who were unable to provide me with an answer

    It is not clear how you are trying to do the order. Have you tried to select a set of files and then use the arrow buttons to move them in the list? If you select the heading, that will typically reorder the files by that heading and undo everything you had done before.
    You should be able to select groups of files and move them up and down in the list. All of those options appear on your view, so what is the real question?

  • How to get unique users through resource name using OIM 10g API

    Hello,
    I have a scenario where i have a resource 'TRY' with multiple request allowed,so if user 'A' requests for
    resource 'TRY' 3 times then i can see in user 'A' resource profile 3 occurrences of resource 'TRY' & when i
    use getAssociatedUsers() API it gives me 3 occurrences of user 'A',so is there any available API for searching
    unique users based on resource name ?
    Thank-You
    Rahul Shah

    You can get the logged in user name using the below java code:
    ADFContext adfCtx = ADFContext.getCurrent();
    SecurityContext secCntx = adfCtx.getSecurityContext();
    String user = secCntx.getUserPrincipal().getName();

  • 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 choose correct version of editing app when choosing to edit image from within InDesign?

    Hi all,
    Normally when I wish to edit an image that is in a layout in InDesign I either press option-click on the image or I ctrl-click on the image and choose to edit it using Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC or whatever app I need to use at any specific time. Well, I also have backups going that backup my entire system and so all of my applications get backed up as well.
    Well, what is happening now (since today) is that when I choose to edit the image, it is opening Photoshop (or Illustrator, etc.) from my BACK-UP drive and not within the app on my main drive. So, even tho' I already have Photoshop open as I am working in InDesign, when I try to edit an image it will open up the BACKUP copy of Photoshop AS well I have tried to choose "other" when ctrl-clicking on the image and choosing to edit...but when I navigate over to where Photoshop is on my main drive, I cannot choose the main app because it seems to show the main Photoshop app as a folder with the package contents therein.
    How on earth can I correct the path to the correct version of Photoshop where I need to do the editing?? I now have to go about things a roundabout way by navigating to where the image is in the finder (via ctrl-clicking on the image link in the LINKS panel and choosing "show in finder") but this is taking twice as long:(( It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have as many images I need to work with that I currently do.
    Any help or advice will be much appreciated:))
    Thank you kindly,
    Christine

    Just guessing...
    Does the problem exist if Photoshop CC on the main drive is open? If not, consider setting it to open when the computer starts up. The active instance might take precedence over the inactive one.
    Usually, the last-installed instance of an application is the one that operating systems (OS X & Windows) associate with a document file that calls for the application, for example, when double clicking in Finder/Explorer. It's common to see the newest release invoked (say Photoshop CC rather than Photoshop CS 6) because the newest release is usually the last one installed. Because Adobe CS applications usually install new versions of common files, it's recommended to install releases in chronological order if it's necessary to reinstall applications when there are multiple instances on the same computer. For example, install Photoshop CS4, then CS5, then CS6; if an earlier release is installed when a newer is present, the earlier common file(s) may cause problems for the application. A consequence of this is the normal, but sometimes annoying, behavior that when launching an application by launching one of its files, the newest release is opened because that's how the operating system works.
    In your case, it's possible that the operating system sees the backup drive's Photoshop installation as the newest installation, and launches it. Perhaps backing up Photoshop CC makes that instance appear newer to the OS. Consider leaving Photoshop CC out of the backup operation. If that works, fine! If not, you might try starting the computer from the backup drive, running Photoshop, then quitting and restarting the computer from the main drive. If that doesn't fix the problem, perhaps try starting from the backup drive again, then reinstalling Photoshop on it, then restarting from the main drive. If this works, it may "hold," or some operation like backing up, might negate all your smart tricks.
    Perhaps one of these strategies may be a permanent fix.

  • How to handle different currency PO value summation in start rountine of Up

    We've got two ODSs, ODS1 for PO records and ODS2 for contract records. We feed data from ODS1 to ODS2. Multiple PO records in ODS1 could contain one same contract number which is the key in ODS2. In the update rule we select Overwrite as update mode for a key figure PO order value and our purpose is to sum all the values of this key figure up for the same contract number which is the key in ODS2 and place total summation value into the corresonding contract number record in ODS2.  In the start rountine of the update rule from ODS1 to ODS2, we've already generated the code to realize the above and the result is correct!  But you know the summation result is only correct for one unique doc currency, we are worried if both currencies of USD and CAD exist for the multiple PO records with the same contract number, then the summation would not be right.  Anyway in the code to handle this different currency thing?
    Thanks

    hi Ajay,
    The link you provided only says the following:
    "Creating a Routine for Currency Translation:
    If you want to translate currencies in the update even though the currency translation is not available for one of the above reasons, you can create a routine. Choose Routine, set the Unit Calculation in the Routine and choose  Create Routine. In the routine editor you get the additional return parameter UNIT, the value of which is used to determine the target currency.".
    I follow the above SAP help, but can't get an additional return parameter UNIT, also it doesn't tell the details on how to do the convertion.
    Thanks anyway!

  • How do I remove the artist's name when picking a song on iPod classic?

    Hello, I just upgraded to a 120GB iPod Classic from a 5.5 Gen 80GB iPod. Sync went smooth and I love my new iPod but the only thing I don't like is how the artist name shows up in every song I choose when I'm in the artist's songs.
    For example, when I go to Artists > Sonic Youth > All Songs it shows all the songs I have from Sonic Youth on there. The I don't like is how it says "Superstar" for the song title then below it, it shows the artist's name again. I just don't like how it looks because I have thousands of songs and the artist's line in each song makes browsing take slightly longer. So is there any way to remove the artist line from every song in their listings?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Weak, although I did notice when I click on an actual album, it only shows the songs and not the artist. I guess I'll have to get used to clicking on specific albums opposed to click on all songs and have fun from there.

  • How do I retain the original file name when using Compressor?

    Hello,
    I am in the process of doing a batch export and would like to keep everything identical to the source material, including the name. There is quite a bit of footage so deleting the "-Apple ProRes 422 for Progressive material" addition can be time consuming.
    Any suggestions?
    I found this thread:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2369070
    but even though I read it more than 10 times I could not set a "custom" path in my destination options.
    I only have the following options available from the pulldown:
    -Cluster Storage
    -Desktop
    -Source
    -Users movie folder
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Message was edited by: Ricardo Javier

    As was mentioned in the thread you linked to, the easiest way is to create a custom Destination. Here are some step-by-step instructions:
    1. Click the Destinations tab.
    2. Click the plus sign in the upper right and choose "Local..."
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19589/Compressor%20Custom%20Destination.png
    3. Navigate to or create your destination folder. Click "Open" to select the destination.
    At this point, you've created a new custom destination. To select it, click the disclosure triangle next to the "Custom" folder. This is where all of your custom destinations are located.
    4. Select the custom destination you want to use for your batch.
    5. In the inspector, you'll see a box where you can change the "Output Filename Template". By default, it'll just have "Source File Name". If that's all you want, then press return.
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19589/Compressor%20Destination%20Inspector.png
    Now, when you go back to your batch window and apply this custom destination to your job settings, Compressor will apply the Output Filename Template to your filenames. Basically, it will get rid of the setting name (as long as you only have "Source File Name" in the Filename Template.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I sort by employee last name when grouped by employee id?

    Hi,
    The first Group is: Employee ID.
    The second Group is: Employee Last Name.
    I wish to sort the entire report by Employee Last Name; however, standard crystal reports sorting functionality doesn't present me with this ability. As a result, the report is sorted by Employee ID.
    Can someone help me how to sort by Employee Last Name in this scenario?
    thx,
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    When you create a Group in the report, Crystal reports automatically adds the grouped fields in the Sort list which unfortunately cannot be removed! You cannot change the priority of the sort fields too, and the only way of achieving this is by actually changing the group order. But it wouldn't help the purpose.
    As a workaround, here's what you can do though:
    1) Create a command object and provide a pre-sorted result set to Crystal Reports. In this situation you would probably create a command object like :
    select Emp_ID, Last_Name from Emp order by Last_Name asc
    2) Create the 2 groups in the report again. Open the 'Group Expert', click on the first group and then click 'Options'
    3) The Sort order for this group would be 'in ascending order' by default. Change it to 'in original order'
    4) Repeat the above step for the next group
    This is the only way I know of sorting a report on another field.
    Let me know how this goes!

    Regard,
    Kenneth.tnsnames.ora is used only by client processes. listner.ora is used only to configure the listener, and that is a server side issue only. In addition, the listener can start without any listener.ora at all, using all default values. See my discussion of tns issues at edstevensdba.wordpress.com
    If you are using dbcontrol, you will most likely need to reconfigure it, using the emca utility.

  • How can I keep the file/ album names when copying music from the Finder to iTunes?

    Hi,
    Is there a possibility to keep the file names one uses in the Finder when adding music to iTunes?
    [e.g. that a Beethoven symphony still ends up under 'Beethoven/ symphony No./' and not under the name of the orchestra/ dirigent]
    Thanks in advance
    Kath

    Yes.  Go into Preferences and make sure that "Keep..." and '"Copy..." are both not checked.  Then put the file(s) where you want them (preferably somewhere in your iTunes Media folder) and use the command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.
    Try this first with a file or two so you can see that it keeps the same file name as it adds to your library.
