How to deal with session timeouts?

How to deal with session timeouts?
With our current configuration of using single signon, when the web session times out (currently 20 minutes of inactivity), the user loses anything they have entered on a service form. The use case is that a user starts filling out a form and gets interrupted, goes to lunch, etc, returns and spends time filling out the form (in the mean time the web session has timed out). When they try to submit the service they get re-logged in through SSO and they have lost all of their entries in the service. This creates some very unhappy users.
I'd like to know how long other customers set their web session timeouts to and if anyone has come up with ways of handling this situation - either through somehow re-establishing the session or through warnings to the user about how long they have to complete a form.

Hi,
The timeout period for HTTP sessions that are created in the corresponding Web application. After being inactive for the specified timeout, the HTTP sessions expire. The period is specified in minutes:
<!ELEMENT session-timeout (#PCDATA)>
You can only change the session timeout property in the applicationu2019s own deployment descriptors. This is not possible for the Global Web Descriptor.
following may help you:

How to deal with user session when power goes off

Hi
All,
One day I had 170 oracle session connected on oracle database server and and suddenly electricity went off. but server was still running. and after power back on ther same bunch of user try to connect it.So I don't know what happen to those 170 session. does anybody know how to deal with this? I did shutdown and restart of database but I am not sure that is correct way to deal with this kind of situation.
Thanks,
Vishal

If the database server is still running, the sessions will remain there, but it depends on how they got connected to the server. If they got access through a middle tier which maintains the session and this MT is still running the sessions will still be visible from the database perspective, unless the MT handles the disconnection event.
If the sessions are working on a Client-Server basis, then PMON will mark the sessions as abruptly broken and it will get rid of them. Sessions may eventually remain hanged, but it depends on the topology, so the way you proceed was a clean database restart.

How to deal with deadlock on wwv_flow_data table when http server times out

There are some threads about a deadlock on the wwv_flow_data table. None of them contain a real explanation for this behaviour. In my case I will try to explain what I think is happening. Maybe it helps somebody who is hitting the same matter.
In my case with APEX 3.2.1 I am navigating from one page to another. Doing this APEX will lock the table wwv_flow_data. As soon as the other page is shown the lock will be released. But now this other page contains a bad performing query (standaard report region). After 5 minutes the http server (modplsql) will time out and present the message "No response from the application server" on the screen. In the meanwhile the query is still running on the database server and the lock stays on the wwv_flow_data table.
Normal user behaviour will be that the user will use the back button to return to the previous page and tries it again to navigate to the other page or
the user will try to refresh the page with the bad performing query.
And voila now you will have a deadlock on the wwv_flow_data table since a second session is trying to do the same thing while the first hasn't finished yet.
How to deal with it?
First of all. Have a good look at the bad performing query. Maybe you can improve it that it will succeed before the http server will timeout.
In my case the 11gr1 optimizer couldn't handle a subquery factoring clause in the best way. After changing it back to a classical inline query the problem was solved.
Secondly you could increase the timeout parameter of the http server. Although this not the best way.
Maybe it would better if APEX in a next version would release the lock on the table wwv_flow_date earlier or do a rollback just before the moment that the http server is timing out.

Mathieu Meeuwissen

Hello Shmoove,
I saw your reply here and you probably understand the problems the HTTP 100 response may cause.
I am trying to send image that was taken by getSnapshot. The problem is that the server respond with this HTTP 100 message.
I suspect that the reason that my server doesn't recognize the file that I'm sending from J2me is that the "server to client" response to the 100 message comes after the second message of (see what the TCPIP viewer shows down here):

How to deal with payment of vendor to us (credit notes I guess)

Normally I use F07 for outgoing payments, it's linked to vendors, but how to deal with incoming payments of vendors?
We got paid two invoices(credit notes I guess) and I want to put them under the right vendor, but how do I do it?
I can't use F07 I think because I need to use positive amounts (for normal purchase invoices) and can't use negative amounts in this transaction. F08 is for ingoing payment but that session is linked to customers I thought..not for vendors?
How to deal with this kind ot transactions? What transaction can I use the best for payments like this
(we got paid an amount , no invoices yet, but I know the vendor).

whith F-02 it is possible I noticed.

How to deal with visession in IVI-C driver program ?

a ViSession is an identifier that corresponds to a session.
My instrument is a remote internet device . i can call VISA library to implement
communication between labwindows and my remote internet device.In this case , what is meaning of Visession
? It looks as if Visession does not have a relation to my IVI-C driver program.
if it has a relation to my driver, how to deal with the ViSession in IVI-C driver program?thank you

ViSession is necessary as part of a larger picture and fills an important role in good architecture. Intrument handles (stored as the ViSession type) are necessary for large projects, which may require commanding multiple instruments.
There is no function to call which can get or set a ViSession value, similar to the way other attributes are set with driver functions. The ViSession intrument handle is created and returned to the application when an instrument is initialized; it represents a connection with one particular instrument.
This allows users to have multiple instruments connected, which can be controlled programmatically with one application. Then, the application can quickly specify which instrument it would like to send a command, just by sending one instrument handle or another.
Yes, you could remove the ViSession as parameter in your functions, but it would cripple the big picture effectiveness of the driver. In place of the ViSession, you would have to send each function the Resource Name or Resource ID for the particular instrument as well as the Option String. So really, it is just more practical and better practice to use an instrument handle (stored as the ViSession type).
That being said, for certain functionality (adding two numbers), you absolutely do not need a ViSession instrument handle parameter. You will have to use your best judgement to determine where to include or exclude this parameter. I suggest using the ViSession instrument handle parameter with any function that communicates with an instrument.
Also, Ebalci is correct regarding the difference between ViSessions and channels. ViSessions are used to communicate with different instruments. To reference or read a specific channel from an instrument you will have to refer to the guidance in the manual for the instrument in question. There will likely be a command to select a specific channel when reading from the instrument. And for general guidance, I suggest reviewing another IVI driver, possibly for an instrument of the same class or type or maybe from the same family, if such a driver already exists.

How to Deal with M:M relationship

Can Someone suggest how to deal with M:M relationship in Siebel-OPA integration ( how will it work for retrieve session)

Hi Tanu,
are you using 0SRPO_D1 DSO ? If so, you will be having shopping cart Number and item in it.
you can build a report on this DSO/Cube and put a filter ( exclude) where shopping cart Nbr is blank. This gives you list of all PO's which uses shopping cart.
not sure if this is what you are looking.

How to deal with OpenCL grey out issue.

First off, I'm not native english speaker.
I have Nvidia GeForce 550 Ti video card, and its support OpenCL v1.1.
I'm also face a "random" OpenCL grey out issue like other people here, but I found the "issue" and how to deal with.
open a command windows (using WinKey + R, and type cmd <enter>)
type "cd C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)" <enter>
type "sniffer_gpu" <enter> -->> to check your GPU has OpenCL in Photoshop?
When GPU is in power-saving mode (core running in 51Mhz, using MSI Afterburner monitor), I running sniffer_gpu, got this report
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)>sniffer_gpu
Device: 0000000000328D68 has video RAM(MB): 1023
Vendor string:    NVIDIA Corporation
Renderer string: GeForce GTX 550 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
Version string:   3.0.0
OpenGL version as determined by Extensionator...
OpenGL Version 3.0
Has NPOT support: TRUE
Has Framebuffer Object Extension support: TRUE
OpenGL ok
Return code: 1
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)>
No OpenCL support
Then, I switch GPU back to normal status (core running at 900Mhz)
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)>sniffer_gpu
Device: 00000000001F8D68 has video RAM(MB): 1023
Vendor string:    NVIDIA Corporation
Renderer string: GeForce GTX 550 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
Version string:   3.0.0
OpenGL version as determined by Extensionator...
OpenGL Version 3.0
Has NPOT support: TRUE
Has Framebuffer Object Extension support: TRUE
OpenGL ok
OpenCL ok, version=1.1 CUDA 4.2.1
Return code: 3
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)>
OpenCL support !!
Nowadays, most of new GPUs were support power-saving, but when sniffer_gpu running at GPU power-saving state, the OpenCL computing report maybe "time-out", cause the detector "guess" the GPU does not support OpenCL. This is why many people says "OpenCL" sometimes work, sometimes grey-out.
I hope this bug can be fixed, or at least people can understand how to "enable OpenCL everytime when you launch photoshop".
Bye.

How to deal with "Error 1001. The specified service already exists" when install a service using installer package?

Hi everybody,
I wrote a "Class Library" project which is a service using Visual Stodio 2008 recently, then tried to use a Visual Studio 2008
Setup Project to install it.
Here is what I did for the "Class Library":
1. Finish the program.cs, Service.cs
2. Add Installer
3. Change the serviceInstaller so that "StartType" to be Aotumatic
4. Change the ServiceProcessInstaller2 so that "Account" to be LocalSystem
5.
6. Click in F5 (Start Debugging)
Here is what I did for the Setup Project:
1. Add the exe file built from the "Class Library" project to the Application Folder
2. On the Custom Action Editor, add the exe file from 1 to Install and Commit
3. Change the property of the project so that "RemovePreviousVersion" to be true
4. Click on F6(Build Solution)
Then I tried to run the msi file from the built of the Setup Project. Because I modified the two projects serveral times, I uninstalled the Class Library using "Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs" before I reinstall. Two things I notived:
1. After unstall, the registry was not cleaned up about the installed program
2. After several rounds install/uninstall, I got "Error 1001. The specified service already exists"
My questions are:
1. How to cleanup the registry when uninstall a program?
2. How to deal with the "Error 1001. The specified service already exists"?
3. Did I do anytbing wrong with the "Class Library" or the "Setup Project"?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Simon, not a problem!
I spent some more time on this and here are few more notes:
it is called Major Upgrade, when you are installing new version of the product upon a previous one and
MSI supports 2 strategies:
Strategy 1. Install a new version and uninstall previous one. (Install a new version right upon previously installed version (file merging is performed based on dll version number) and the delete previously
installed files)
Strategy 2. Uninstall previous version and install a new one (Delete all previous files and install from scratch new files.)
From the first look it seems that 1st strategy is weird and buggy. But, remember, MSI is great because it's transactional!!! That means that if once some of the phases (Installation, Uninstallation, Rollback, Comit) fails, your machine
will be reverted to the previous state and it'll be still functional.
Let's consider both strategies:
Consider you have installed product_v1.msi and you want to install product_v2.msi.
Strategy 1
1. MSI engine copies files from Product_v1 directory to TEMP directory
2. MSI engine merges files based on the assembly version (between v1 and v2)
3. Once merging is completed successfully it removes files in TEMP (RemoveExistingProducts action triggers it) and you got product_v2 installed, otherwise if it fails MSI engine revert machine to V1 and copies previous files from TEMP.
Strategy 2
1. MSI engine tottaly removes all files from v1.
2. MSI engine installs v2 files and if something goes wrong you cannot revert back, because RemoveExistingProducts allready worked out and MSI doesn't have files to revert machine back
I recommend to everybody to use Strategy 1 and leverage MSI transaction functionality. And you can set this strategies by defining sequence of RemoveExistingProducts action. See more info
here. So, I think it's not even a bug in VS as I said in the upper post it is default recommened behaviour.
AND, you got "Error 1001. The specified service already exists"
because if we follow Strategy 1 MSI engine tries to install Windows Service on top of the existing service and OF COURSE it fails MSI engine (StopServices, DeleteServices actions are executed before actual
installation and they look at ServiceControl table). In order to stop service first and delete them you have to fill ServiceContol table of the MSI (and then StopServices, DeleteServices actions will recognize what to they have to stop
and delete), like this:
*clip*clip*clip*
' see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa371634(v=vs.85).aspx for more info
' Update the Service Entry to stop and delete service while uninstalling
query = "INSERT INTO ServiceControl (ServiceControl, Name, Event, Arguments, Wait, Component_) VALUES ('MAD_Service', 'Service name', '160', '', '1', '"
+ componentName + "')"
Set view = database.OpenView(query)
: CheckError
view.Execute : CheckError
' Update the Service Entry to stop and delete service while installing
query = "INSERT INTO ServiceControl (ServiceControl, Name, Event, Arguments, Wait, Component_) VALUES ('MAD2_Service', 'Service name', '10', '', '1', '"
+ componentName + "')"
Set view = database.OpenView(query)
: CheckError
view.Execute : CheckError
*clip*clip*clip*
We can uninstall service first by following Strategy 2, but then we lose transactional support.
So, Simon did I encourage you to change your code a bit?:)
And, btw, if you don't want to change the strategy, please don't rely on SequenceID in MSI table, it can be change, you have to get the at the runtime.
Hope it will help to everybody!

How to deal with credentials for external applications using a Java Client/

Hi Guys,
This is the case. I am integrating an external application with an ADF Application. I have implemented some programmatic ViewObjects that are being filled up by a REST Java Client Wrapper. Everything is working fine but the issue is that the credentials the wrapper is using are hard coded inside the java class. I am thinking to ask for the credentials at the beginning of my taskflow and then store them somewhere and use them then to create my client wrapper (passing them in the constructor).
However, I don't know if my approach is good and I would like you to share your experiences or how to deal with this.
Regards

You can use Credential Store Framework to store the credentials securely in the weblogic server instead of hardcoding in the java class.
The Credential Store Framework:
- enables you to manage credentials securely
- provides an API for storage, retrieval, and maintenance of credentials in different back-end repositories
Check the documentation on CSF API -
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29505_01/core.1111/e10043/devcsf.htm
Major Steps -
1. Create a credential map and key in em console to store the password (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25054_01/core.1111/e10043/csfadmin.htm)
2. Use CSF API to retrieve the stored password
3. In jazn-data.xml give permissions to access CSF key and map

How to deal with file dir? what format of dir should be?

Hi Kamlesh,
Thanks for your response.
Actually, In the "Process External Bank Statement" window, i see that there are few entries which is for the previous year and which has not been reconciled. I have never worked practically on BRS and hence, i am scared to make any changes in the clients database without being confident on what i am doing. I need to reconcile for one of their Bank a/c for the month of April '08. I have the copy of the statements for the month ending 31st Mar 08 and 30th Apr 08. The closing balances are as below:
31/03/08 - 2300000.00
30/04/08 - 3100000.00
Now my OB for Bank a/c for April '08 in SAP is 2300000.00 Dr.
When i go to External Bank Reconciliation - Selection Criteria Screen (Manual Reconciliation), here are the detail that i enter:
Last Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000 (Grayed out by the system)
Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000 (Entered by me)
End Date: 30/04/08 (Entered by me)
"Reconciliation Bank Statement" Screen opens up and shows the below balances in the screen:
Cleared Book Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000
Statement Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000
Difference: INR 3,800,000.00000
As per the Bank statement, i have found all the transactions listed out here for the month of Apr '08 but, i also found that the open transactions for the previous month from April '08 have been lying in "Process External Bank Statement" window.
Could you please help me solve my issue as to what needs to be done or could you also get me some links from where i can get few documents for processing External Bank Reconciliations?
That will be of a great help for me. I need steps as to what needs to be done first and then the next so that i can arrive at the correct closing balance for the month April '08.
Thanks in Advance....

Hi
In IT0001 You have a Position which is linked to a Org unit. If you want to change the org units reporting relationship then you have to change it in OM by creating a new relationship with the upper org unit.
All the person are assigned to position so nothing needs to be done in PA.

I've been using an iMac i7 with two drives SSC and HDD. Recently, I've been having issues with the SSD being close to full. I use it for applications only, although some apps need lots of space (iTunes, iMovie, Photoshop, etc.) I use Lightroom and have all the images on the spinning drive. Does anyone know how to deal with this issue? Any way I can move the music from iTunes to the separate drive, or any way to figure out what exactly is using most of my space?

Should I add a lot of delete commands in the code for each table?Uh, well, yes if you continually add rows to a table the table will grow ... sooner or later you will want to delete rows that are no longer needed. What did you expect? You have to decide what the business rules are to determine when a row can be deleted, and make sure your design allows for such rows to be identified. This is called ..... analysis and design.
