IC Web - manager dashboard hangs using HTTPS for CRM_UI_FRAME

Experts,
I am on an ISU-CCS project in realization using IC web front end. Here are our versions:
CRM2007
ECC 6.0 EHP3
We have the IC web client talking to back-end and most everything is looking good.
I turned on HTTPS/SSL using all the usual notes....and it seems to work well, we can even SSO over to back-end to execute webgui transactions via IC Web.
My problem is when I use a certain business profile and test:
Monitoring Operations --> Manager Dashboard
As long as I have HTTPS turned on for the CRM_UI_FRAME, if I access above mentioned portion of IC Web, it just sits there and creates a hundred different HTTP logins for my ID. It blinks quick at the bottom and I see it try to execute the bsp: CRM_IC_MDB.
Funny how it tries to continue to use HTTP even through I am switching to HTTPS everywhere.
If I go back to HTTP, (turn off switch to HTTPS), the the manager dashboard works OK.
Normally, I would think problem with HTTPS/SSL setup, but all other portions of IC WEB work great using HTTPS/SSL.
I check ICM log and nothing unless I bump trace to level2. Then too much stuff. But I do see this:
[Thr 1286] Handler 2: HttpAuthHandler matches url: /sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_ic_mdb/main.do, port: 8000
[Thr 1286] Handler 3: HttpCacheHandler matches url: /sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_ic_mdb/main.do, port: 8000
[Thr 1286] Handler 4: HttpSAPR3Handler matches url: /sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_ic_mdb/main.do, port: 8000
[Thr 1286] Handler 0: HttpJ2EEHandler matches url: /sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_ic_mdb/main.do, port: 8000
I can't figure this one out......any ideas?
Thanks,
Nick

We figured out the issue. There is a transaction launcher setting specific to MDB that has a https flag.

Possible to use http for web authentication?

Hi All,
We are using WLC 2500 and AP 1041 with web authentication. Due to we do not have the trusted/public certificate and want to get rid of the certificate warning during the user login. I would like to ask if this is possible to change the web authentication method from HTTPS to HTTP. Thanks.
Rgds,
Jacky

Hi Jacky,
Yes u can... But there is a catch..
1) If ur running WLC code below 7.2.X then the only option is to disable HTTPS globally (Meaning HTTPS management access disabled only HTTP).
2) If you are running 7.2.X and above, then you can use HTTP for client webauth and then HTTPS for Management access.
The command for disabling https for web authetication would be:-
config network web-auth secureweb disable
Hope that helps

Calling Web Service from EJB using HTTP Client

Hi,
Scenario:
I need to Call a Web Service from an EJB Application.I used HttpClient for calling the Web Service in the EJB Application. When i call the execute method of the HttpCLient it throws an exception
The element type "META" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</META>"
The input XML does not have a node called META.
When i call the Web Service using Http Client form an Java Application it is working fine.
Kindly Suggest me the changes/steps that needs to be done

Hi Manish,
SOAP adapter does pass the message to XI (this message contains SOAP envelope although XI expects to get message without it), and during the mapping step i get "Runtime Exception in Message-Mapping transformatio~".
I suppose it's because i created proxy manually. I did so because when i imported WSDL, and tried to generate proxy in CRM, i got an error message that said that proxy couldn't be generated because external definitions are only allowed in XI 3. But my XI version is 3.0! And when I generate the same proxy in my R/3 system that is installed on WAS 640, it works.
What can I do?
Cheers,
Anya.

How to use HTTPS for my Webservices

Hello,
I'm devoloping one SIte of a Webservice-based Interface.
- My Webservices have to to consumed using HTTPS
- My Invoker(Oracle 10g PL/SQL-Procedure) has to invoke a Webservice over HTTPS
So i have seen how to create Secure-SOAP-Webservices, but I don't find a tutorial, which shows the whole Process: Create the Webserver-Certificate (SAP WAS 6.40), tell the Webservice to use this certificates, etc...)
It would also be graet, to get a link to tutorial..
Greetings,
Chris

I don't use Oracle PL/SQL, but I can give you an idea how it can be done via eg PHP (pear soap in this case) consumer.
I presume that you you have on the WAS already an FM which is webservice enabled.
First you need to set up an array with all credentials
$proxy = array('user'=>'someuser', 'pass'=>'somepass','proxy_user'=>'someuser', 'proxy_pass'=>'somepass');
Then you set up the client with the wsdl and this proxy info
$wsdl=new SOAP_WSDL("https://someuser:somepass@someurl",$proxy);
$wsdl->proxy=$proxy
$client->$wsdl->getProxy();
$result=$client->someFMonWAS();
It's that easy.

What to specfify in CA Reporting services integration (Report server web service URL) when using SSL for both SharePoint and SSRS?

Hello,
We are using Sharepoint 2010 and SQL Server reporting services 2008 R2.    We have the sharepoint site bound to port 443 using a certificate.   We also have the same certificate bound in the reporting services configuration manager's
web service URL tab.    In CA should we put the SSL URL or the non SSL URL?    Right now in CA it has the then non SSL URL,
http://fakehostname/ReportServer_REPORTSERVICE.     We have some sporadic issues and I am wondering if setting this to our SSL URL will help.    Please let me know
if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Sean

Hi,
Regarding this issue, it should be no issue for setting (https) according :

I notice you mentioned that you have some sporadic issues, what are these issue? If there are errors, please post the detailed information about the errors.
What is the mode type of SQL Server Reporting Service, native mode or SharePoint mode?

Either Tomcat is down (check to see if you can access it with a browser) or wsdeploy is not authenticating properly in which case I think you can set user and password properties in build.properties.
An alternative to wsdeploy is to drop the .war file in webapps and restart Tomcat for autmatic deployment.

Force web service servlet to use http 1.1

is there anyway to force a web service deployed to oc4j standalone 9.0.3 to service many calls over one http connection? there doesn't seem to be any documentation to that end. Thanks, Ki

But, I want to know which Framework will provide
better performance?
better than what?
Also I want to develope the web service as a standard
one andeach has it's own quircks and implementation details. Each should be able to generate and accept the same SOAP messages though if you implement them properly.
It should be able to provide bulk data exchange.
That will depend in large part on your hardware.
Please suggest a web service framework
(Java-based) which will give better performance.again, better than what?
Better than messenger pidgeons?
Better than swallows (European or African)?
And if so, how heavy would the message capsule be? 2 swallows may be able to carry a coconut together, holding it on a piece of string.

What is the correct way to set a web application to use HTTP or HTTPS?

In the past I've always created an HTTP web application as the default zone. Then extended the web app, creating a new IIS website on port 443 and enabled SSL. This seems to have worked fine, but I recently read an article stating that it is not good to
extend a web app unless absolutely necessary. So can someone tell me what the proper way is to configure a single web application to work with HTTP and HTTPS?

Extending the web application to support both HTTP and HTTPS is a perfectly good method and in fact is the only way to have a web application support both so what you've done is fine.
If the web application will only use HTTPS, you can set this up when you first create the web application. Specify port 443 and the SSL option (and ensure the URL has an https://) when creating the web application. You'll need to install the certificate
in IIS once the web application has been created.

I used to manage 3 websites using both my imac and macbook, using dropbox, however I can no longer access them from my mac book.

I have been managing 3 websites using iWeb for the last several years, using both my iMac and Macbook. However for the last two weeks, I can no longer access these sites from my macbook. It appears "empty". When I first started seeing this, I took it to the Genius Bar in another city and he moved some library contents to my desktop - still didin't help.
I know iWeb is a thing of the past, but I can't stop right now and learn something new for about the next 4 weeks (in a sports team in the middle of a season)
. After that, I will have time to learn a new product.
Also, what is a suggestion for replacing iWeb? Sandvox? Rapid Weaver?
Thanks!

What do you mean when you say you "can no longer access these sites?" Does that mean you can't connect to those sites in your web browser, or that they aren't showing up in iWeb?
If the latter, note that your iWeb data is all entirely stored in a hidden file. In the Finder, choose Go -> Go To Folder and paste the following path into the window that opens:
~/Library/Application Support/iWeb
In that folder, you will find a single file, called Domain. That's got all the data for all your iWeb sites. If that file is missing, or if it has become corrupt, you will need to restore it from an earlier backup.
As for replacing iWeb, either Sandvox or RapidWeaver should work. Which works best will depend on your own tastes. Note that neither is capable of fully importing iWeb sites, as those sites will have a lot of content that is copyrighted by Apple. For more information about transitioning to one of these products, see:

Force Reporting Services 2012 use https

I have recently set up a new instance of SQL Server Reporting Services. I have it running and am in the testing phase of the deploy. I have set it up to use SSL and basic Authentication. This all works. The report writer has been able to deploy
reports and start testing. In this testing we discovered that the menu on the left of the report manager in the data sources or reports management window will not use https. So let me explain it more.
If you browse to a report or data source in Report Manager then highlight and click on the down arrow and choose "Manage" you will get a page with the report's or data sources' properties. It will also have a menu on the left with items
like "Subscriptions", "Dependent items", and "Security". If I click on one of these items I get a 404 page error. I can then go to the url and simply put a 's' in the http so it read https and it will work.
Due to security requirements I have had to block all port 80 traffic, if I open port 80 it will work. It only works as http with port 80 open. The menu url never defaults to htts.
I have set the root url to have an https at the front. This made no change.
I tried setting the ReportServerUrl in the c:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsreportserver.configfile. I set it to include the https at the front as such https://DNSentry.com/reports.
Yes I changed the url so the Reports is the Report Manager. This broke the entire Report Manager. It would give me an error of:
The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version.
I have also tried to force report portal to use https by setting the secureconnectionlevel in \c:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\rsreportserver.config to 2, then to 1 and it gave me an error both times.
The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.
If anyone knows how to force Reporting services to use https for all urls or if I am doing something wrong please let me know.

@Diskokid I have exactly the same problem, did you find a solution yet?
-edit- _remove the HTTP from the Web Service URL_
That did it for me. I got an error at first but it turned out that the certificate was wrong. The
machine was named ABACUS but could be reached using reports.company.com. I renamed the machine
REPORTS, requested a certificate and used that certificate to set up SSL and used the following url as a guide to check all.

Problem translating servlet name from an encoded URL when using HTTPS

Hello:
I am experiencing a wierd issue when using WLS 5.1 with HTTPS and am hoping someone might
be able to shed some light...
I have deployed a web application and am using HTTPS.
So, a typical call to a servlet is
https://foo.com/web_app_context/servlet_name/servlet_arguments
The servlet is used to upload files from disk to a database and to also download the same.
Therefore, the servlet_arguments string contains the file name among other things.
The problem seems to arise when the file name contains either a space or an
underscore e.g. "file_name" or "file name". It is then typically encoded as
"file%20name" in
the URL.
So a call then looks like:
https://foo.com/web_app_context/servlet_name/file%20name
When this request is sent to WLS, it seems to truncate the servlet_name by a couple
of characters causing the request to fail.
This works fine using HTTP.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Prashant

The JNDI call is different when you call an EJB from inside the J2EE.
ctx = new InitialContext();
ref = ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/<JNDI-Name>");

I created thirty pages using ipages and my web manager is having difficulty placing them on my website, some change color, some slide off the screen. Is there a place for problem solving for ipages and website?

Hi, I thoroughly enjoy the ipage program and prefer it to the similar one offered by Word. But my web manager is having countless difficulties. I converted everything to PDF's for him but several of the ipages are loading with a different backround color. He says he has to meta tag each page since this cannot happen automatically. On my Mac, the pages are loading after the navigation bar is selected, and it takes about three to four seconds. On my iphone, however, each page takes at least eight seconds to load and then it slides right off the screen before it can be read. I really want to continue using ipages to update my website but I am a rookie and do not understand why each ipage cannot simply open when someone goes to my website. It would be great to do away with the loading of each page and I would like to also minimize any of my margins. Thanks for any help on this strange matter. Mary

Converting pages to pdf is not the usual way make a website. You may want to try some other app where you can directly create the html which is the customary format for the web.

How to invoke a web service using https

Hi,
I have a few security related questions surrounding BPEL process manager.
1. Does the BPEL engine have the capability to invoke a web service using https (HTTP over SSL)? Does it automatically do that if partner link URI starts with https:// ?
2. If not, what needs to be done to enable accessing a https based web service?
3. I need to write a web service that accepts a message and updates certain information in the database. The web service will be deployed in an OC4J instance in Oracle App Server. We want to allow the web service to be accessed from BPEL only by users registered in the database. What is the recommended way to pass username and password to a webservice if service is invoked from BPEL process manager? Note that specifying username/password in bpel.xml is not an option.
Thanks,
Pranav

1. Does the BPEL engine have the capability to invoke a web service using https (HTTP over SSL)? Does it automatically do that if partner link URI starts with https:// ?
We currently don't have support for HTTP over SSl. We are working on it to include this functionality in near future.
2. If not, what needs to be done to enable accessing a https based web service?
I am not sure it is possible with current product offering. I will confirm it after discussing with our concerned development group. There is some work going to integrate with Oblix security mechanism [recently acquired by Oracle].
3. I need to write a web service that accepts a message and updates certain information in the database. The web service will be deployed in an OC4J instance in Oracle App Server.

What is the recommended way to pass username and password to a webservice if service is invoked from BPEL process manager? Note that specifying username/password in bpel.xml is not an option.
This will be easier to do if we can use Oblix along with BPEL PM. Could you please let us know more about your application so that we can provide you the customized solution till it's part of the product. You can send this query to [email protected] so that our product management team can give you more detailed roadmap regarding this.

Policy agent using https redirect to AM for authentication

We are using Access Manager 6 2005Q1.
Access Manager is running on box A & box B using the Sun Web Server as its front end web server. Box A & B both have a complete install of Sun Web Server, Access Manager, and Directory Server. The Directory servers are set up to replicate changes between each other. Our Policy Agents are running on box C & box D under the Apache web servers.
Users will access applications on box C/D via https. The policy agents on box C/D should redirect the user to box A/B (via a load balancer VIP)for authentication. The redirect will be https. Once authenticated the user should be redirected back to box C/D.
All subsequent communications between the Agents on box C/D to AM on box A/B (via load balancer VIP) are http.
Our load balancer is currently setup as active/failover because it does not support ssl with cookies.
In our AMAgent.properties file if I set 'com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL = http://<lb-vip>:80/amserver/UI/Login' and access box C/D as https://<webserver>/<url> I am redirected to AM on box A/B for authentication. Once authenticated I am redirected back to box C/D and allowed access to <url>.
However, if I set 'com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL = https://<lb-vip>:443/amserver/UI/Login' and access box C/D as https://<webserver>/<url> I am NOT redirected to AM and receive 'Forbidden You don't have permission to access /<url> on this server. Also in the agent log file I see:
     2006-01-30 12:42:30.792 Debug 28126:203470 PolicyAgent: in_not_enforced_list():enforcing access control for https://<webserver>:443/<url>
     2006-01-30 12:42:30.792 Debug 28126:203470 PolicyAgent: am_web_is_access_allowed https://<webserver>:443/<url>S, GET) no sso token, setting status to invalid session.
     2006-01-30 12:42:30.792 Debug 28126:203470 PolicyAgent: Policy Agent: am_web_is_access_allowed returned status=invalid session
     2006-01-30 12:42:32.800 Warning 28126:203470 PolicyAgent: am_web_get_redirect_url() unable to find active Identity Server Auth server.
     2006-01-30 12:42:32.800 Info 28126:203470 PolicyAgent: do_redirect(): Status Code= invalid session.
Interestingly if I set 'com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL = https://<am-server>:443/amserver/UI/Login' and access box C/D as https://<webserver>/<url> I am redirected to AM on box A/B for authentication. Once authenticated I am redirected back to box C/D and allowed access to <url>. In this scenario the only difference is I am bypassing the load balancer.
Our networking people have monitored the load balancer in front of our AM boxes A/B and see the traffic going to AM in all cases.
From my standpoint it appears the agent is not able to successfully connect to AM via https when going through the load balancer.
Any help with this configuration issue is appreciated.

Bernhard,
From our AMAgent.properties... com.sun.am.policy.agents.version=2.1. Is there a way for me to tell if this is truely only 2.1 or 2.1-xx?
Because our LB does not support SSL with cookies we are currently configured as active/failover so all requests are going to the same AM server until it goes down, at which time I know users have to re-authenticate. Also we have set "com.sun.am.loadBalancer_enable = true" in AMAgent.properties.
We understand your point about loginURL. Infact there are two properties dealing with loginURL, com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL and com.sun.am.policy.am.library.loginURL. Based on the comments in AMAgent.properties my understanding is that com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL is where the user is redirected for login when no valid SSO token is found and com.sun.am.policy.am.library.loginURL is what the agent uses to authenticate itself "If the previously specified login URL must be exclusively used for redirecting users..." The interesting part is that if we set com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL to use http everything works just fine, however if we set it to use https the user never gets redirected. Its almost like the agent is trying to connect there first before doing the redirect and can not.
