How to specify special permissions in Oracle BI EE 11g

Hi everybody,
I am trying to create a new role in Oracle BI EE 11g which users and groups by this role can access only to create report(preferably within particular folders) and not be able to change settings such as creating new connections in Oracle BI publisher and etc.
Hope to see your great helps and ideas.
All the best

Some good information has been provided in the links below on how security is configured in 11g . Follow the steps below

How to insert special character from Oracle form builder 10g

Dear all,
I need help. how to insert special character like 'Superscript or Subscript ' from oracle form builder 10g. I had try in Oracle form builder 6i with press ALT+ASCII code in the text item and it work, but in the oracle form builder 10g this method doesn't work... would you like to help me...somebody please...
Best Regard,
Dedy P.T.

What do you mean by insert ... from Forms Builder? Do you mean you want to add it as text in a string of pl/sql code or as part of boiler plate text (label) or a value on the Property Palette?
For special characters you would need set NLS_LANG to something that would support the characters you want to use. For the Builder to see the change, you would need to set NLS_LANG to something like:
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
This can be done in the Windows Registry or system. As I mentioned, this will only apply to the Builder and will have nothing to do with a running form. For running forms you would need to set this in default.env. As for things like super and sub scripts, these are font formats and not necessarily characters. For the most part, I don't believe these are supported in Forms.

How to save Special Characters in oracle?

Is there any way to enter special characters such as ºC ? i am using J2EE and Oracle 9 i.
When i try to enter 2ºC after updating the datbase it is converted to 2ÂºC when it is displayed in HTML. All special characters are prefixed with Â. Pls suggest any way to use special characters with oracle ..

This has nothing do to with NLS_LANGUAGE. In general, character set processing depends on NLS_LANG setting (which is an OS setting and not a instance initialization parameter) and database character set. To understand NLS_LANG see OTN NLS_LANG FAQ http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm.
However, I think that JDBC is an exception and does not use the character set defined by NLS_LANG. See last answer in following discussion:
Re: When is NLS_LANG used ?

How to specify dataschema name for oracle data source?

And so question: how can I choose proeprietary database schema defined in one Oracle SID? There is any settings for this purpose in data-sources.xml?
thanx in advance,

Avoid doing that through a link. If this is a page item then submit the page and redirect to the target page using a branching. On the target page, create a computation to compute the target item using the original page item as the source. If you are talking about a report, use the id to pass through the link and fetch the text column in an on load computation.

How to use ODBC connection specified on Linux containing Oracle BI EE 11g on BI Administration?

I have Oracle BI server (OBIEE 11g) installed on a Linux machine. I want to use a MySQL database running on same machine for reporting. I need to create Subject Area from the MySQL database.
However, I am having problem creating connection pool from the MySQL database. BI Administration runs only on Windows and I can't see ODBC connections on Linux even when I opened BI from Linux in online mode in BI Administration. I have created ODBC on Windows, but it's giving me a "Failed to perform requested action" when trying to import metadata.
For the record, everything works fine when everything is installed on Windows.

How to specify permissions to PCD

Thanks.

Hi Anubhav,
For any PCD object we can set permissions under their property editor .
Iview or roles or any PCD object has Proeprty editor to the right side which opens into diff dropdown namely, object, permissions, navigation , linking
We need to go for permissions option from the drop down to set permission for that particular PCD object. By default object will be displayed , which gives rge gen info abt the PCD object
Navigation property in teh drop down gives the appearance of the PCD objects and so on..
Hope this was useful

How to specify page encoding for XML reports.

Hi,
Environment: Apps:11.5.10, Oracle Reports: 10g
I'm trying to generate XML tags by using a "rdf" report (10g).
Initially I generated the XML tags before moving the report to server. In the output file I got
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="WINDOWS-1252"?>
Then I moved the report to server and made the concurrent program output to XML.
In the concurrent program output the tag is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="&Encoding"?>
The output shows error
===============
XML Parsing Error: XML declaration not well-formed
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="&Encoding"?>
Its clear that there is something wrong with page encoding format which has to get assigned while run time. But its not happening so.
How to specify the page encoding format?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
BKR.
Edited by: BalaKrishna Reddy Avuthu on Aug 14, 2009 2:00 PM

Remove the encoding so it says:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
Also, you will get a similar error if your xml tags for fields contain any special characters like & or #.

If I transfer files to a new hard drive and "special permissions files" are

I am installing a new, larger, hard drive in my Powerbook G4. I want to "clone" the old hard drive onto the new one. However, when transferring files to a PowerMacG4, as an intermediary in the process , via Target Disk Mode , I get the message that "certain files with special permissions will not be copied".
I did check the messages in this forum and found that there is a way around this problem. However, it seems that I would need a clean hard drive to do this and I don't want to reformat my G4 PowerMac in order to use that drive as an intermediary in the process.
The simple question is then: What will happen if I copy the G4Powerbook files via Firewire to the G4PowerMac drive, ignore the permissions warning, and then transfer that data to the newly installed drive in the Powerbook???? Will there be important systems files missing, or will some of my programs simply not work. Perhaps I could then just reinstall anything that's not working (that required special permissions)?
This probably sounds like a stupid question to you Mac gurus, but I've never really understood the significance of "permissions".
Thanks

You cannot simply copy files from one drive to the other. Also, if you clone to the hard drive in another computer, then you must use a separate partition on that drive. You cannot clone to a drive that already has OS X installed on it.
The cloning process works as follows:
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder of the drive you are cloning.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
8. Select the destination drive on the Desktop and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. At the bottom in the Ownership and Permissions section be sure the box labeled "Ignore Permissions on this Volume" is unchecked. Verify the settings for Ownership and Permissions as follows: Owner=system with read/write; Group=admin with read/write; Other with read-only. If they are not correct then reset them.
For added precaution you can boot into safe mode before doing the clone.

How to specify a mapping file using annotations?
Thanks
tdeer

We you codegen a Policy annotated WSDL, the policies are get included in the stub. Hence you don't have to specify a separate Policy file.
But if you need to use a separate policy then you need to set them in the AxisDescription object that you use in the ServiceClient and OperationClient.
e.g.
ServiceClient serviceClient = new ServiceClient();
OperationClient operationClient = serviceClient
.createClient(ServiceClient.ANON_OUT_IN_OP);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("path-to-policy.xml");
Policy servicePolicy = PolicyEngine.getPolicy(fis);
AxisService axisService = serviceClient.getAxisService();
axisService.getPolicyInclude().setPolicy(servicePolicy);
If you need more information please repost this to [email protected] with a [AXIS2] subject prefix.

How to specify term file when using static html to run webforms 10g

Any idea how to specify the term file in static html.

term is not a http address, but a directory address. So, you have to specify the path on the server:

How to specify the target name while deploying a code in OSB-- Plz Help

Hi all,
Am working in creating a cluster environment. For my testing i created a new managed server(OSB_Server) in 9001 port in the admin console itself and that server started running. The default managed server(Admin_Server) is in 7001 port. So when i deploy a code in 7001 sb console the WSDL gets exposed in 7001 because the default admin server port is 7001. While deploying a code in service bus admin console we are not specifying the target name. So how to specify the target name while deploying the code in service bus admin console. Plz help me.
Regards
Prabhu

Hi Prabhu,
There are three kind of server architecture possible for OSB -
1. Single server - Everything gets deployed on Admin server itself
2. Admin Server + Single Managed Server for OSB -- OSB configuration gets deployed on OSB managed server. OSB resources (proxy service, WSDL, Schema) will remain available on OSB managed server port only and NOT on admin server port
3. Admin Server + OSB cluster -- OSB configuration gets deployed on OSB cluster. OSB resources (proxy service, WSDL, Schema) will remain available on OSB Cluster port(s) only and NOT on admin server port
Converting one type of server architecture to any other type, requires a manual tedious process, so it is suggested that you create domain accordingly i.e. if you need clusters then while creating domain itself, create OSB cluster, so that all OSB applications gets deployed to OSB cluster. I will suggest you to create a clustered domain from scratch and import the configuration from your existing domian to this new clustered domain.

How to load PDF files into oracle database and display them in APEX

Hi All,
We have a requirement for loading the Loading PDF files (lots of PDf files) to the oracle database and then display the PDF files in the Oracel APEX report.
So that User can view the PDF files. Our current APEX verison is 3.2..
Please let me know how to implement it and where to find the sample application!
Thanks in advanced!
Jane

Thanks Tony for your quick response!
We need to load a lot of PDfs (history + current).
I have a questions about the SQL loader. I am trying to insert a pdf file into a table by following the oracle loading sample:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/text.920/a96518/aload.htm
Example Data File: loader2.dat
This file contains the data to be loaded into each row of the table, articles_formatted.
Each line contains a comma separated list of the fields to be loaded in articles_formatted. The last field of every line names the file to be loaded in to the text column:
Ben Kanobi, plaintext,Kawasaki news article,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
But i don't know to where should I put my pdf file on the server.
for example:
,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
Where is the file 'kawasaki.txt'??
I try my local path, it didn't work. like c:\temp.
then I loaded teh PDf file into our server(/findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp) , and In my data file. I put the path
1, pdf_emp1,../findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp
but I got the error: the system can not find the file specified.
Where should I put the PDf files on the server and how to specify the path in the data file?
Thanks!

How to specify approver to a Document

Hi All,
Here is my requirement, while uploading a document via Oracle contributor Document check-in form in Webcenter Spaces, can I mention Approver or Reviewer for that document?
I know that we can specify the approver/reviewer at folder level. I want to know how to do that for a document.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Yes, it is possible. However, this is actually 3 questions in one - all of them are related to WebCenter Content and one slightly also to WebCenter Portal.
1) How to specify a reviewer/approver for a workflow step?
As written in the manual (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c05_workflows.htm#CEGGCBCA , step 16.), there are three options:
- select a specific user
- select a specific user's group (called alias in WCC)
- select a token
The first two are static, but a token can be dynamic - you have an option to write your own code in idocscript (see examples at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c05_workflows.htm#CIHDJAAE ) which may implement any logic you wish.
2) How to allow a contributor to influence a workflow (e.g. select an approver, but also choose a workflow, etc.)?
What a contributor does is a) entering metadata b) entering the content, so OOTB the information influencing a workflow must be either in metadata, or in content. Usually, it is in metadata - you can a variable or a set of variables which may be evaluated during workflows.
A trick with folders is that you may pre-define the metadata for content checked-in the folder, but you still have to 'translate' the metadata settings into workflow logic by tokens.
3) How to do that from WebCenter Portal? (Contributor)?
Like WCC's GUI, Contributor can benefit from profiles - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c04_metadata.htm#DAFIIEEI where you can define which metadata will be displayed/hidden/filled in, etc.
