How to set database credentials to form?

Hi All,
I'm newbie em Forms. I'm facing a situation and I don't know how to solve it. I run a forms application in a giver browser and I'm always asked to type database credentials in order to connect to this database. In development time there's no problem, however, general users cannot have database user and password to be able to access the form.
Is there any way to set database credentials (user, password, database) in order to user not being asked to provide these info ?
thanks a lot

Hi,
Plz configure formsweb.cfg file in order to achieve this. Set the parameter 'userid=<YourDatabaseCredential>'.
e.g. userid=scott/tiger@orcl
thanks & best regards,
Qasim Javaid Malik

How to set database location for stored procedure

Post Author: Pavel
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I've already found out that setting location is not only my problem, but I can't understand the correct decision. We using CR to create reports, accessing the data in MSSQL by ODBC.
Previously (up to version 8) I set location directly, editing the "Table" field in "Set Location" form. Command after report creation was:
Proc(DBNAME.dbo.PROCEDURE_NAME;1)
I erased "DBNAME.dbo.", so the correct command was
Proc(PROCEDURE_NAME;1)
After that, the report can run on any database name, any ODBC datasource with any owner name of procedure.
Now we had to upgdate to CR 11 Developer Edition.
Here I can't erase database location. But when I change database location to ODBC datasource for another database, the properties of stored procedure "Catalog" and "Owner" remain the same as they initiated when report was created! So, when report runs, it call
exec OLD_DB_NAME.dbo.PROCEURE_NAME;1 ....
So, the report doesn't work on customer database, because it has different name.
How can I erase any database location in the report?We run reports using API from Gupta Team Developer applications, may be it is possible to set database location by API before running report?
Plese help, any tips are usefull.

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
When I set location to another database (i.e. another ODBC datasource) by clicking Update button, "Catalog" property is not changing! It remains unaltered. I had to remove procedure from report and then add procedure from another database, so there was a lot of formatting fileds after that.
This is not a right decision. I didn't solved current problem, I only temporary patched it.
The correct desision is to set location programmatically from application.But function PEGetNthTableLocation returns empty strings in CR11, or I incorectly declared this function (from CR8.5):
BOOL CRPE_API PEGetNthTableLocation ( short printJob, //handle to print job short tableN, //number of table struct PETableLocation FAR *location //structure pointer);typedef struct PETableLocation { WORD StructSize; char Location [PE_TABLE_LOCATION_LEN]; //256 char SubLocation[PE_TABLE_LOCATION_LEN]; //256 char ConnectBuffer[PE_CONNECTION_BUFFER_LEN]; //512} PETableLocation;

HOW-TO specify database credentials in LDAP user

Hi:
I want to know how can i specify oracle database credentials (oracle database usernname) that one specific user will use to connect to the database for instance when using Oracle Forms.
I saw in OID some "tags" like orcluserv1, etc... is this ? how can i do it ?
For instance i want that:
LDAP user Database user
user00001 dbuserA
user00002 dbuserA
user00003 dbuserA
user00004 dbuserB
user00005 dbuserB
So ldap user00001 will connect to the database with dbuserA ..
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

Hi Ashish:
I've succesfully created an user with OIDDAS and assign it a "resource acess information" of type OracleDB.
So, when creating this user i specified the username in db that this user will use to access database. Until now, it's all perfect. But, where's this information is stored ?
I've access OID Manager and see that user is create in the Entry Management, but the DB information is not stored in any of the properties of this user.
This is a problem, because I want to make an APP that will use DBMS_LDAP pack to create user dynamically, so I have to know what attributes/classes/properties that user needs for assign it to a specific DB user.
Can you help ?
Thanks The information is stored in an Oracle Specific container called 'cn=oracleContext' in the default subscriber.
You can use the DBMS_LDAP_UTL package (shipped in iAS 902) to query these Resource Access Descriptors. Directly
storing these from PL/SQL is not presently supported. OIDDAS is the only interface through which you can get this done.

How to set connection between oracle forms and DB?

I have installed win xp,
oracle database 10g in c drive ,
oracle forms and reports 10g in d drive ,
how do i set the connection between forms and DB ?
i know its an old question but i am very new to this !
thanks in advance.

You didn't mention the versions or whether you are using Developer Suite or Application Server. I guess it really doesn't matter in this case, but please provide complete information in the future.
In order to connect the F/R home to a db you will need to make the appropriate configuration entries in tnsnames.ora found in the F/R home (\NETWORK\ADMIN). The entry you add will be similar to the one found in the tnsnames.ora for the db which is found in a similar directory in the db home. The entry will look something like this:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myMachine)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = myMachine)
)

How to set Database Logon Info, if allowDatabaseLogonPrompting="false"

Hey,
Here is the Version Details -
Crystal report X1 R1
Sql Server 2005
Tomcat 5.5.27
Question -
I am using jsf viewer to dispaly report in my web project. We don't want to prompt for database logon information before showing the report to teh front user. I have seen few sample jsp code which creates the crystalreportviewer object and set the connectioninfo details and calls the processhttprequest method to render the report. I have tried the same approach and it works for us.
But our requirement is to just use the jsf tags. Is there a way to pass the database credentials to the jsp without prompting for Logon Information or using the java code to populate the connectioninfo in crystalreportviewer instance.
Here is the jsp file -
<%@ taglib uri="/crystal-tags-reportviewer.tld" prefix="crviewer" %>
<crviewer:viewer displayGroupTree="false" viewerName="CrystalViewer"
reportSourceType="reportingComponent"
displayGroupTree="false"
        displayToolbarExportButton="true"

        displayToolbarRefreshButton="true"
        displayToolbarToggleTreeButton="false"
        displayToolbarCrystalLogo="true"
top="100"
left="200"
reportSourceVar="#{Report.reportSource}"
isOwnPage="true"
displayGroupTree="false"
allowDatabaseLogonPrompting="false">
<crviewer:report reportName="Report.rpt">
     <crviewer:partsViewer viewerName="CrystalViewer"
          reportSourceType="reportingComponent"
          title="Fill to Fill Report"
          numberOfRecords="10"
          showHeadings="true"
          showPageNavigationLinks="true"
          allowParameterPrompting="false"
          reportSourceVar="#{Report.reportSource}"/>
</crviewer:report>
</crviewer:viewer>
I am trying to run this and it shows an error page with information Database Login Error.
I have created the report using JDBC/JNDI database connection with trusted authentication = false.
The Sql Server 2005 error log shows -
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 5.
Logon       Login failed for user ''. [CLIENT: <named pipe>]
Any help will really be appreciated.

Yes within the report designer i am able to refresh the report and open and close the report without getting prompted. I am not changing any database properties at runtime and using the jar files which come with CR Release 2.
All i am doing is to export the report in pdf format. Here is the code :
ReportExportControl exportControl = new ReportExportControl();
ExportOptions exportOptions = new ExportOptions();
PDFExportFormatOptions pdfOptions = new PDFExportFormatOptions();
exportOptions.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
exportOptions.setFormatOptions(pdfOptions);
exportControl.setExportOptions(exportOptions);
exportControl.setExportAsAttachment(false);
exportControl.setReportSource(this.wrapper.getReportSource());
exportControl.setName(this.wrapper.getReportName());
exportControl.setEnableLogonPrompt(false);
//Pass Fields object to ReportExportControl
exportControl.setParameterFields(this.wrapper.getFields());
//Export only works if i pass the connections object with connectioninfo object populated with username and password.
//We want to run the report using trusted authentication i.e. we don't want to pass username and password.
exportControl.setDatabaseLogonInfos(connections);
if(to_refresh)
exportControl.refresh();
If i don't provide the connectioninfo object with proper username and password to run the report inside the java class, it try's to logon to database using username = 'userid'. I think it picks it from the JDBC Connection String created while creating database connection for the report in the designer.
Here is the jdbc connection string for the JDBC/JNDI connection created inside the report designer:
!net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver!jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost:1433/customer;namedPipe=true!user=!password=.
Is there a way to get pass this problem??? Is there a way to force the connection from the java class to use trusted authetication??? Can we change the connection string to replace the userid with empty string to force trusted authetication???
Any help will be really appreciated.

How to set the notifications structure form a form in IDM 8.0.0.5

Hi,
we are using Identity Manager 8.0.0.5 and we are trying to set the notifications structure which is evaluated in the Create User and Update User workflow from within our Tabbed User Form and from a ActivveSync Form.
We had no success in either case so far.
Any ideas on how to do this?
What we want to achieve is send additional notifications if certain attribute conditions are met.
Thans for any answer.

A text frame in text is an anchored or inline item, so you either have to set the leading of the parent character or use the anchored options of the frames.

How to set password in the form, request is coming from SPML with no pwd

Hi ,
Im using SPML request to create and modify users? I have 2 problems
1) Does anyone know, how to customize the form to call 2 different workflow depending on the request meaning, if SPML request is ADD, then it should call Create User workflow, and SPML request is MOD then it should call Update User workflow.
Right now, i don't know who to do it and currently it is working for create users only.
2) Im not getting password field from SPML request, so i have to set password with value 'password' in the form. Can i do that and How?
Appriciate any response

Hi,
According to your post, I know you want to add a custom field to Task form. When vale is Yes, send the email to the assigned person. When the value is No, item update and user can approve the task without the email sending out.
Doubt you have already create an approval workflow which associated with Task list in SharePoint Designer.
1. To add new fields to Task Form, click New button in Task Form Fields section. Name the “Send the email or not” of choose type. See the below image:
Then, save and publish the workflow to make it effect. You can visit the following article for details:
Updating List Item with Task Form Custom Field in SharePoint Approval 2010 Workflow
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kishore/archive/2012/01/15/updating-list-item-with-task-form-custom-field-in-sharepoint-approval-2010-workflow.aspx
2. In SharePoint Designer, create another workflow which associated with Task list.
a. Click workflows > List Workflow and choose Task list.
b. Add the condition, if the current item: “Send the email or not” is equals to yes. Then, add the action “Send an email”.
c. Publish the workflow.
Thanks.

Here's a routine that also searches for subreports to set the log on info. Simply remove that aprt to set the main report logon info:
IDatabaseTablePtr pTable;
//get first table
pTable = m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(1) ;
long lTableCount = m_Report->Database->Tables->Count;
for( long lTable=1; lTable<=lTableCount; lTable++ )
     pTable = m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(lTable);
     pTable->ConnectionProperties->DeleteAll();
     pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("DSN", "Name of your DSN");
     pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("Database", "Demo");
     pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("Password", "sa");
     pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("User ID", "1Oem2000");
// Log on the tables of the subreports.
long lSectionCount = m_Report->Sections->Count;
for( long lSection=1; lSection<=lSectionCount; lSection++ )
     ISectionPtr pSection = m_Report->Sections->Item[lSection];
     long lSubreportCount = pSection->ReportObjects->Count;
     for( long lSubreport=1; lSubreport<=lSubreportCount; lSubreport++ )
          IReportObjectPtr pSubreportObject = pSection->ReportObjects->Item[lSubreport];
          CRObjectKind crObjectKind;
          pSubreportObject->get_Kind(&crObjectKind);
          if( crObjectKind == crSubreportObject )
               ISubreportObjectPtr SubReportPtr = pSubreportObject;
               IReportPtr pSubReport = SubReportPtr->OpenSubreport();
               long lTableCount = pSubReport->Database->Tables->Count;
               for( long lTable=1; lTable<=lTableCount; lTable++ )
                    pTable = m_Report->Database->Tables->GetItem(lTable);
                    pTable->ConnectionProperties->DeleteAll();
                    //pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("DSN", "dwcb12003");
                    pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("Database", "CrystalEport_DB");
                    pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("Password", "sa");
                    pTable->ConnectionProperties->Add("User ID", "1Oem2000");
If that doesn't work you need to tell us what is the error you are getting and paste in the code you are using.

OS: Windoze 2003 64 bit
Oracle: 11.2.0.1
Background:
Expertize on Windoze: novice
When I establish remote connection, I enter 'oracle' as userid, the password and select local machine...no problemo there.
Now I am trying to set the OS 'preferred credentials' in order to schedule/submit jobs on that server, but all I get is "ERROR: Invalid username and/or password".
I tried:
orarcle + password
{servername}\orarcle + password
\\\{servername}\orarcle + password
Nothing works!
Is there something I need the Windoze admins to "turn on" or what?
Thanks for your insight/links/ideas/jokes or any relevant info.

4.3.12 Setting Credentials for the Job System to Work with Enterprise Manager
Windows systems require that you set the correct credentials for the Jobs system to work properly in Enterprise Manager. By default, the Management Agent service is installed as a LocalSystem user. When submitting jobs, such as stopping or starting the database, the user submitting the job must have the Log on as a batch job privilege enabled.
Perform the following steps to establish that privilege for any operating system user who needs to submit an Enterprise Manager job.
1.     Start the Local Security Policy tool:
o     Windows 2000: From the Start menu, select Control Panel, Administrative Tools, then Local Security Policy.
o     Windows 2003: From the Start menu, select Administrative Tools, then Local Security Policy.
o     Windows XP: From the Start menu, select Control Panel, Administrative Tools, then Local Security Policy.
o     Windows Vista: From the Start menu, select Programs, Administrative Tools, then Local Security Policy.
2.     Under the Security Settings list, expand the list to Local Policies.
3.     Under Local Policies, double-click User Rights Assignment.
4.     Under Policy, search for the Log on as a batch job policy.
If the Management Agent service is installed as any other user (that is, not LocalSystem), then, in addition to granting the Log on as a batch job privilege, you must grant the "Windows service" user the following three privileges:
o     Act as part of the operating system
o     Adjust memory quotas for a process (This setting is named Increase memory quotas on Windows 2000.)
o     Replace a process level token
5.     With each policy, perform the following steps:
a.     Double-click the policy name.
b.     In the Properties dialog box, click Add User or Group.
c.     In the Select Users or Groups dialog box, enter the name of the user (for example, jsmith, administrator, and so on.)
Note:
On Windows Vista, the name of the dialog box is Select Users, Computers, or Groups.
d.     Click Check Names to check that you have entered the name correctly.
e.     Click OK.
6.     Click OK to exit the Properties dialog box, then exit Local Security Settings and Administrative Tools.
7.     Restart your computer.
If a user exists locally and at the domain level, Windows gives the local user precedence. To use the domain user, qualify the user name with the domain name. For example, to use the user joe in the ACCOUNTS domain specify the user name as ACCOUNTS\joe.
