HTTP POST timeout on specific button

Hi,
I'm trying to work out if Oracle ADF supports a POST timeout that is configurable for an action in the UI. The use case is as follows:
1. A specific button in the front end is clicked on by the user, causing a HTTP POST (This then causes an action in the backend, that takes an indeterminate amount of time to return)
2. A timeout should occur after a configurable duration (Obvious technical caveats apply, such as this value not being able to exceed the JTA transaction timeout)
3. The user should be redirected to a error page specific to this type of timeout.
I would like to configure this specific button to have a lower timeout than both the "Post Timeout" in the WebLogic server Admin console configuration for the HTTP Protocols. There are other transaction timeouts in place that will clean up the services layer and any database connections to protect the servers from these running indefinitely.
Thanks in advance.

Frank,
Many thanks for the swift response. I'll have a look into other ways of tackling this in the Java layer of the application.

HTTPS Post with XI

Hi mates,
I've a scenario that complains a RFC call to XI and then, XI makes a HTTPS Post on a specific server.
I've created a HTTP Destination (type G) on SM59, set it to use SSL at Logon & Security tab, using the DFAULT ssl client(that i've created at STRUST transaction).
The problem is when i try to TEST the connection, an successful textless message appears in the bottom and nothing happens! The server that will receive the request doesn't receive nothing when it occurs.
I've debugged the testbutton of SM59 and i found that the problem occurs in cl_http_client, in the method IF_HTTP_CLIENT~RECEIVE, and the exception is http_communication_failure.
Somebody faced the same problem?
Is the Destinations created on the J2EE Admin Service avaliable to my XI Communication Channel?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bruno,
Try using the SOAP adapater instead of the plain HTTP way.

Working with HTTP-POST Submit Button

I've created a form that uses a submit button with HTTP-POST. I've tested this against a script that displays the fields, however, I'd like to table the posted data to SQL. Can someone show me some code to parse this data with CGI, or PHP?

Yes. At some point you will need to prarse the requests and treat them differently - because a POST is NOT the same as a GET.
Anyway, just place the variables or script-links to the variables in an HTML Form.
Very easy stuff.

SOAP over HTTP/POST

Hi everyone,
I'd be eternally grateful if someone could provide me with a quick + easy solution to the following (basic?) task.
I have a user form with the required parameters and a submit button. I have an XML schema which specifies the format for the soap requests and responses. How do I accept user input, wrap it into a soap request, send it via HTTP/POST to a server ( http://localhost:9999/xyz/xyz), wait for a soap response and display the response in a readable format to the user when they press the submit button? Not that hard is it?!
Please try to be a specific as possible because I'm no Java expert. I'm just so confused with all the tutorials about wsdl, bpel, tomcat, jax ws, glassfish etc etc etc!
I use netbeans and java app server 9, though I'm open to other IDEs/servers.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Ruth

Submitting a PDF form via HTTP Post: Beginner's Questions

Hi,
I am completely new to PDF forms, so I have been finding the documentation and options overwhelming.
I am hoping to get pointed to the documentation/tutorials/examples I really need.
I would like to build a "proof of concept" for my boss. I would like to include a screen in our Java ( JSP & Spring ) webapp where either a PDF form is embedded or is accessed via a link.
I have
Adobe Acrobat Distiller X standard license
Adobe Acrobat X Standard
Microsoft Office 2010
I made a small, 3 field Microsoft Word form. I then converted it via DIstiller into a PDF form.
I then found this document about how to submit a PDF form to a server side component:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-demystified
My big problem with this document it doesn't have an example nor an example showing what is going on in a full HTML page. As I result I have some questions:
Can I see such an example somewhere?
Does the call to the javascript function doc.SubmitForm(urlToMyServerSideComponent) go in a script tag on the HTML page like other javascripts?
Can I execute that submit function from an HTML button or do I need to put a "submit" button on the PDF form?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle in order to create a PDF form with a "submit" button? Free versions?
Can I send via HTTP POST ?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to crate a PDF form with a digital signature?
Is there a document/tutorial that fits where I am starting off from? ( Please no books, I am tyring to show my boss that this is something that can be done, in a reasonable amount of time, not time to get and go through a book ).
Thanks in advance for any tips that get me pointed in the right direction
Steve

To answer some of your specific questions:
2, 3. The submit form button needs to be on the PDF. You can either configure a Submit Form action or use the submitForm JavaScript method.
4, 6: No to both questions. You can create the form in Acrobat. Such forms are knows as Acroforms, as opposed to XFA forms that are created with LiveCycle Designer. Acroforms have wider support.
5: Yes, that's the method that's used when submitting to a web server. You have your choice of formats. The "HTML Form" option causes the form data to be submitted in the same format as an HTML form, so the same type of server-side code can be used to process the data. As Dave's tutorial shows, the server should return an FDF as the response, however, as opposed to HTML content.
It's a mistake to try to embed the PDF in a web page. So much depends on the user's browser, PDF viewer, and how both are configured. PDF forms can be submitted directly from Adobe Reader/Acrobat, so it's not necessary for them to be viewed in a browser. Note that Adobe Reader for iOS/Android don't yet support submitting to a web server (apart from FormsCentral), but that's is supposedly being worked on.
Since you mentioned digital signatures, be aware that for Reader users to be able to sign, the document has to be Reader-enabled, either with Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is not the same as LiveCycle Designer). Digital signatures in PDF forms are not yet supported on mobile devices. Also, you will want to submit the entire PDF, as opposed to just the form data, when submitting a digitally signed form.

Where does firefox cache the form parameters to be used in the reload event of a page that was the resposne of a HTTP POST request?

Suppose there is form in a web page and it submits data in HTTP POST method. After submitting the form, if I reload the page [either by the refresh button or back button; whichever applicable], firefox asks permission to resend the form data by saying "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action...". Now if the user clicks on the resend, firefox resubmits the form data.
So where does firefox store this from data for such future resending/resubmission?
Is it possible to retrieve/manipulate those stored form data?

I thought I'd tried that, as tried lots of other things like encoding URL, but obviously not as this works.
Thanks for the quick reply.

Not able to send message - http post from MII 12.1.4.53 to PI 7.1

Hi ,
Question
u2022     Is there any configuration to set up in MII and PI to do posting to PI as a web service? If YES, please guide.
Situation
u2022     We are with MII version 12.1.4.53 and trying to send message through http post to PI 7.1 server.
u2022     We are getting the following error HTTP 500 Internal Error Issue.
u2022     However we are able to post messages from SOAPUI through the same URL and with the MII system which is running on version 12.1.6.91 and 12.1.9.116
u2022     HTTP Response received as below points to PI Configuration issue.

Hi Anudeep,
The question isNOT ABOUT the format of the URL which MII should use.
Using the same URL we are able to post the message from other MII versions with in the landscape( MII version 12.1.6 and MII version12.1.9) and through SOAP UI.
500 Internal server error Problem arises when the message is sent through the same URL from MII 12,1.4 Build(53) to PI 7.1 ( we tried https Post, XI Webservice, WebService action blocks)
Question:
Are thre any configuration settings specific to MII version12.1.4 Build 53 which needds to be set in MII to communicate to PI 7.1.
Thanks
Rajesh

Uploading big files via http post to XDB table

Hello,
I ve created a web form for to upload files as blobs to the database using XML DB, DBPS_EPG package and preconfigured DAD.
The issue is that small files (~10kb) are being uploaded ok, but file which is 100K during http post returns connection reset from the server side.
To my opinion there might be some max file size parameter for oracle server to accept during oracle listener tcp connection (as apach has maxrequestlimit).
Is there any workaround for to load large files to the XDB table via webform?
Here is a piece of code:
CREATE USER web IDENTIFIED BY web_upload;

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Much of what is available on Bittorrent is not legal, beta, or improperly labelled versions. If you want public domain software, see my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/macosxnative.html#NATIVE
for search engines of legitimate public domain sites.
http://www.rbrowser.com/ has a light mode that supports binary without SSH security.
http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu/ has ssh secure FTP.
Both I find are quick and a lot more reliable than Fetch. I know Fetch used to be the staple FTP program, but it grew too big for my use.

Get file from HTTP POST (upload image)

Hello,
I would like to integrate http://www.plupload.com flash component to my APEX 4.1 website. I need it because I want to resize image and transform image before upload on client side, upload multiple files etc..
But I don't know how to read image binary data from POST method.
When I hit "Start upload" button on plupload component it makes some transformations and creates POST method like this:
------pluploadboundary1334433145869
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="name"
p16qp6jm3nhan1ca46me1ocr3tu1.jpg
------pluploadboundary1334433145869
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="chunks"
1
------pluploadboundary1334433145869
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="chunk" 0
------pluploadboundary1334433145869
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="centerd.jpg"
Content-Type: image/jpeg
ÿØÿà�JFIF��ÿÛ��
image content
now I would like to read content of this HTTP POST and read sended image and store it to DB.
Question is... how can I read file sended with HTTP POST in APEX pl/sql process or pl/sql procedure?
Thank you...
Edited by: cardel on Apr 14, 2012 11:17 PM

Hi,
here are my two cents ...
this will be a bit difficult. When you use the standard APEX File upload it is not PL/SQL handling the POST request. The request is handled by the webserver - depending on the variant you are using it is either mod_plsql, the C code of the Embedded Gateway or the APEX Listener. The webserver is also doint the insert into APEX' file repository. So I see two options:
It might be possible to configure your plugin (don't know about it) the behave the same as a standard browser upload. Then for APEX there would be no difference - mod_plsql should handle the files accordingly.
If you want to handle the POST request yourself, as said, you can't do this in PL/SQL. It would be possible to write a Java servlet doing this and deploy that servlet on the same container as the APEX Listener (when using Apache with mod_plsql you would need an additional Java server for that) ....
Hope this helps ...
Best regards
-Carsten

Maximum HTTP posts to "Plain HTTP" adapter

Hello,
I am working on some load testing on a development box that we have for a simple synchronous HTTP<>XI<>RFC interface. I have tested up to around 45 simultaneous users and the XI box starts to reply with 500 Internal Server Errors to the HTTP posts. Up until that point it processes the messages fine and returns the correct response and 200 OK codes.
Could someone direct me to the configuration on the XI box for the maximum number of HTTP requests to process or an explanation of why the server starts to drop POSTs? Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Anthony Cesaro

Hi,
have a look at those two parameters from the XI profile:
icm/HTTP/max_request_size_KB
Maximum size of HTTP request accepted by ICM
and
connection timeout:
icm/server_port_<xx>

HTTP post data from the Oracle database to another web server

Hi ,
I have searched the forum and the net on this. And yes I have followed the links
http://awads.net/wp/2005/11/30/http-post-from-inside-oracle/
http://manib.wordpress.com/2007/12/03/utl_http/
and Eddie Awad's Blog on the same topic. I was successful in calling the servlet but I keep getting errors.
I am using Oracle 10 g and My servlet is part of a ADF BC JSF application.
My requirement is that I have blob table in another DB and our Oracle Forms application based on another DB has to view the documents . Viewing blobs over dblinks is not possible. So Option 1 is to call a procedure passing the doc_blob_id parameter and call the web server passing the parameters.
The errors I am getting is:
First the parameters passed returned null. and
2. Since my servlet directly downloads the document on the response outputStream, gives this error.
'com.evermind.server.http.HttpIOException: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine'
Any help please. I am running out of time.
Thanks

You can use remote LOBs via a database link. However, you cannot use a local LOB variable (called a LOB <i>locator</i>) to reference a remote LOB. A LOB variable/locator is a pointer - that pointer cannot reference a LOB that resides on a remote server. So simply do not use a LOB variable locally as it cannot reference a remote LOB.
Instead provide a remote interface that can deal with that LOB remotely, dereference that pointer on the remote system, and pass the actual contents being pointed at, to the local database.
The following demonstrates the basic approach. How one designs and implements the actual remote interface, need to be decided taking existing requirements into consideration. I simply used a very basic wrapper function.

LOB contents (1-4000):<root><text>What do you want, universe?</text></root>
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> The concern is the size of the LOB. It does not always make sense to access the entire LOB in the database. What if that LOB is a 100GB in size? Irrespective of how you do it, selecting that LOB column from that table will require a 100GB of data to be transferred from the database to your client.
So you need to decide WHY you want the LOB on the client (which will be the local PL/SQL code in case of dealing with a LOB on a remote database)? Do you need the entire LOB? Do you need a specific piece from it? Do you need the database to first parse that LOB into a more structured data struct and then pass specific information from that struct to you? Etc.
The bottom line however is that you can use remote LOBs. Simply that you cannot use a local pointer variable to point and dereference a remote LOB.

HTTP POST with Java? (Submit file)

I want to submit a file to a web service using Java, specifically the JXXX Compiler Service (http://www.innovation.ch/java/java_compile.html). It seems like the page uses HTTP POST. How can I do this?
Any help would be appreciated.

I suggest you ask them you question.
Have you read the instructions on how to use it.

HTTP Post Action Block

Greetings all,
I am using a HTTP Post Action in BLS - Vs 11.5.
The objective is to return a HTTP string from a jsp page, so I can scrap the page.
The URL: http://mospublic.ercot.com/ercot/jsp/balancing_services_mcp.jsp?marketdate=2008-06-16   (obviously you might have to change the date to Yesterdays Date)
I have set up the HTTP Post Action with
URL Address of:   http://mospublic.ercot.com/ercot/jsp/balancing_services_mcp.jsp
Post Document:   marketdate=2008-06-16
Encoding: UTF-8
ID and Password are provided
Content Type:   application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Post_0.ReturnAsString comes back with typical HTML content for Today's Date.
Testing has shown that on a fresh IE window. Using the above url will show today's data.
Hitting this url again the second time will get the browser to yesterday's data.
So any suggestions on how to make this happen.
(btw, I have no control over the external public ERCOT website so changing thier jsp page isn't an option.)
Anyway we could emulate that action in BLS - v11.5?
Thanks
Dennis

It's not working for me???
Did that work for you?
I have attached my sample... It's a repeater, a http Post and a tracer.

Http-post XML file to Localhost:1301 - No XI available

Hi guys,
I hava a problem finding a preferrably easy answer to a task: send a XML-file via http-post to localhost:13001. I am using the iXML library to create the XML (as it contains some stuff not available in the crm) and thats about it. The system will not have an XI available, but the application listening on 13001 will be expecting data, whenever it ist sent. As far as I know, the file should be sent everytime a user presses a certain button.
Never done this before, so even basics are fine.
Any help appreciated!!
Thanks
Claudia
