InitialContext.unbind() deleted the admin user for LDAP server...

Hi,
I am doing a connection to a LDAP server from Java code. Everything was fine for several days. But today I noticed that I don't execute an unbind operation and decided to put the necessary code. So I used InitialContext.unbind(). The result was that on the first execution of my program everything was OK. But on the second execution I was not able to bind to the server at all with the constructor of InitialLdapContext class even after restarting the machine from which I execute the Java code and the machine with the server. So it went that the admin user I was using for bind and unbind credentials was deleted. I am sure that the unbind() method is causing the problem because I actually broke the two LDAPs that I have (testing referrals...).
Now I use close() method instead of the unbind() method and everything is OK but I wonder how is this possible and why is it not documented?

I can't imagine documenting something like "This method will delete the admin user from your server". If that's the case then it's a bug, not something to be documented. Report it to whoever wrote your Java implementation. If that's Sun, then here:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/login.do
You might also want to look into your LDAP server and see if it's a known bug there.

I accidentally deleted the admin user and it wiped out everything, luckily it wasn't much, but is my computer going to be completely overloaded with data from the last user? for example, i had to redownload microsoft 2011 do i have little space now?

How to create the anonymous user for FTP server in Linksys E3000?

I made a FTP server in my Linksys E3000 and everything work great. But when I send URL to my friends to download file, everyone must login
So, can I create Anonymous User (like FTP server in PC) to simplified everything ?
Thank you so much!

Thank Great_White!
But i mean not that. I can create user to access my FTP server but that users must have user name and password.
I want to create Anonymous User like FTP server in Computer (no user name and password). So when i send link to my friends, they can download without login user name and password

Now "admin" user for RMIConnectionFactory goes through my UserManager class

For about an hour, I successfully had my derived UserManager class authenticating users, AND calling an EJB session bean to create auditing events. This was working fine. Then, I did something to the configuration, and I'm not sure what. Part of the current fix was to configure the InitialContext for JNDI to specify an RMIConnectionFactory, and specifying the "admin" user and password. This is the "admin" user for the application server, not a user known to my UserManager class.
Somehow, after I "fixed" something in my configuration, when I try to do the JNDI lookup (Using the RMI factory, etc.), instead of returning the RemoteHome, it actually calls my UserManager class to authenticate the "admin" user. My UserManager can't authenticate that, as it's a user not known to it.
I believe that the UserManager is supposed to be in a "chain" of UserManagers. I would guess that the "parent" of my UserManager is supposed to get the first crack at authenticating a user, and the first UserManager that says a user exists, will handle the work of authenticating the user's password. I believe this is how it's supposed to work.
So, it seems like I somehow deactivated that "chain", so my UserManager is apparently the only UserManager.
I wish it was completely clear exactly what configuration file I should put here, either from OC4J or JDev (it happens the same way in both). The way some of these files are copied around at deployment is somewhat confusing.

I think I'm understanding this a little better, and I think what I'm seeing is actually how it's supposed to work, but I really did think that for about the first hour after I got the EJB connection working, that it was NOT trying to authenicate the "admin" user in my UserManager class.
I think, normally, someone writing an ordinary UserManager class could ignore this situation, because when it calls their "userExists()" method with the "admin" user, and it returns "false", it will still eventually return "true" when the XMLUserManager handles it.
However, in my case it is bad for me to ignore the possibility of being called with the "admin" user, because my security requirements state that I have to create auditing events when someone tries to log in with an invalid user id. I create those auditing events by calling a stateless session bean (which is how I ran into this problem in the first place). It has to call that SLSB by using JNDI to get the RemoteHome, but it has to configure the InitialContext with an RMIFactory, and specifying the "admin" user and credentials. In short, if I let my UserManager class verify the "admin" user, it will fail to find it, so it will try to create an auditing event, which will be the start of a wonderful infinite recursion loop.
I can clean this up a bit, as I don't have to hardcode "admin", because I already set up additional properties for my UserManager, including the "jndiPrincipal". So instead I just return "false" if the given userid is the same as my jndiPrincipal property.

suresh.m2015,
It's going to be impossible for anyone in this forum to help with your issue if you don't provide any more detail about your environment and Apex installation. However, from your post it looks like the Apex database objects are missing or invalid.
Did you follow the Apex installation guide step by step? For example, did you run apexins.sql?
It's important to follow the documentation. The script you are running to change the admin user password should not be run until after the Apex installation is complete.

Can we delete the views created for a user in Oracle BPM J2EE WL

I am using Oracle BPM 10.3 MP2 Enterprise Edition
Version: 10.3.2
Build: #100486
Can we delete the views created for a user in workspace?
Usually we are using the filter option within workspace and then saving it as view.
Would like to know if we can delete such views and create again.
These views are user specifc
Thanks in Advance.

I usually use this scripts to clean the workspace user custom seetings:
delete from fuego_objclassinst where fuego_objclassname = 'bea.albpm.workspace.layout';
delete from fuego_strprops where (fuego_category = 'fuego-view' OR fuego_category= 'fuego-presentations');
delete from fuego_strprops where (fuego_category = 'WAM' );
Hope this help.

What is the "admin" user in EAS Console?

I am still relatively new to Planning and Essbase. I am trying to figure out the relevance of "admin" user in the Essbase Administration Console. My colleague and I have seen several instances of this admin user in EAS console but it doesn't appear to represent a "live" user. We have also seen references to "admin@native directory" in the Essbase and EssbaseODL logs. In the last couple of days, we were unable to run a script that automatically backs up a database because this admin user was performing a spreadsheet operation. We were able to successfully force the admin account off via the console but we know for a fact that no one else is logged in.
Below are excerpts from the Essbase log. Please see the text in red.
Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Admin user is a administrator user or a super user in essbase .Admin user has full permission to access the entire system which includes all users and groups.Admin user has the rights to create users Perform dataloads,write and execute calculations,delete users
In your log i can see admin user was active and doing some operations. EPM11hypplan user has forced admin user logout of server.I guess you have set up EPM11hypplan user which has same privilege of admin user to run process.Also check if any particular job process is run via admin id .

When trying to log in as the Admin user, get "error on page"

Hi gurus, I am brand new on this new product. Yesterday I just downloaded the latest Apex (2.2) and installed it successfully by following the instuctions (for I got these two lines in the install log: Thank you for installing Oracle Application Express.
Oracle Application Express is installed in the FLOWS_020200 schema.
). I have got two problems. First, when I try to log in as the Admin user, and as soon as I start typing the user name and password on the logon page, I see "error on page" at the very lower left corner of the browser (IE 6). So I can not log in. Second, the Oracle HTTP server takes up almost 100% of my CPU (by itself, the 10g instance does not take up any noticeable CPU if I am not doing anything, but the HTTP server keeps the CPU busy all the time no matter what).
What did I do wrong? Please help me. Thanks a lot.
Ben

Hello user526627 and all,
I also have installed apex 2.2 successfully. At least I've not found any errors and this is the tail of install.log:

Interesting thing is that I am getting 404 when I use suggested http://host:port/pls/apex/apex_admin or http://host:port/pls/apex (I am using host name of the machine or ip address). However the http://host:port/pls/htmldb/ and http://host:port/pls/htmldb/apex_admin works (at least, I am getting a page without images). In addition, when I provide user name and password on the http://host:port/pls/htmldb/apex_admin page and click on 'Login' nothing happens... :(
This is a clean install. I've also used a HTMLDB 2.0 install from companion cd (Oracle10g R2 for Windows) - this had worked ok, however it did stop working when I istalled apex 2.2 on top of it. I've dropped flow-schemas and tablespaces I've created for apex 2.2 install and started the install over again. However, still no luck. Here is the command I am using to start apex 2.2 installation:
@apexins ********** htmldb_data htmldb_files htmldb_temp /i/ none
I have installed oracle http server in a standalone home, the http server works.
Thank you for your time,

I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.

Don't know the Admin User!!

Hi everybody ,,,
I have a problem which is when I wanna to install a program the computer asks me to type the admin user and password and I don't know both of them .. also my user which I have been using it is a standard user although it's the user which I created it when I used the Mac the first time,,
so ,,
could u help me please ,, how could I know the admin user and password or how could I install the programs even with the standard user ?
and how could I make it Admin,,
Thanks,, & I'm looking forward to have an answer ..

Excellent! I had the problem of loss of admin rights myself, and was curious if root had also been messed up so went to change his password. I thus discovered what is Apples recommended solution for the vanilla version of the problem. Incidentally there is at the top of the listing for 10.5 topics a little pink tinged section and that contains a slew of Leopard solutions.
LioN HeArT, two pieces of advice 1)you really ought not to have (if so) your only user be an admin. That would mean that attacks whilst browsing especially could wreak more danmage. Your day to day user should be a non admin. If you care to follow my advice, despite your efforts you should demote the admin user to standard. Do that because if I am right about your scheme most of your user created data will be in that admin and it is a clart to shift the data to a non admin. HOWEVER before you do that follow this second advice
2) set up two new admins. One you will use for the normal sorts of admin tasks, the other you hold in reserve and just test occasionally.
By the way I hope you have disabled the root. To leave him enabled is a security risk. The easiest way is in Directory Utility but you can also do it from a single user boot. Root and the admins should have good passwords but I suspect they have judging from your upper/lower case username here.
Finally, tidy up Apple's website and mark the query as settled, if it is so.

What is the Admin user in OWB

Being a newbie to OWB, I wonder what is the admin user in OWB, which i can use to login in repository browser, so that i can see all the avaliable workspaces, etc.,
Thanks,
Prabha

Prabha-
OWB doesn't really have a separate "admin" user, though the repository owner itself is of course the full admin over everything. If you followed the docs or tutorials when setting up your environment, it's likely something like OWB_REPO_OWNER.
Though really it's whatever database user you specified by created when first creating your repository.
Anyway, it's this user that is always able to fully see and control all objects.
Thought I should say here also after re-reading your comment and your reference to "workspaces"- are you referring to OWB 11g? I must admit I haven't delved into 11g yet, and so am unsure if things are different. My comments definitely apply for OWB 10g however.

Should the admin/user folder and all of its sub folders be moved to the hdd or just parts of it? (eg. picture, movies, documents) What is the best way to go about doing this. Also should a 2t hdd be partitioned.

iMac with 256ssd and 2t hdd. Should the admin/user folder and all of its sub folders be moved to the hdd or just parts of it? (eg. picture, movies, documents) What is the best way to go about doing this. Also should a 2t hdd be partitioned.

Yes, you can move your user directories to the HD and keep your OSX and Applications on the SSD drive.
Whether you partition your HD or not depends on how much data you have and how you propose to use your HD.
Are you planning to use your iMac as a Time Machine backup volume? If so, partition it off.
Do you have huge data files, eg video, music, photos?
How much of your 2tb drive will be "free" once it is loaded with all your data?
A little more information is required before the optimal configuration can be recommended for your use.

Hello everyone...I got my very first macbook pro just today and i have a problem deleting the "test" user account. if i can't delete it, the system won't let me turn off the system. I don't know what to do! HELP!!!!

hello everyone...I got my very first macbook pro just today and i have a problem deleting the "test" user account. if i can't delete it, the system won't let me turn off the system. I don't know what to do! HELP!!!!

Have you created another admin user? Go to system preferences click users and click the + to add a user; if you haven't already. Once you have another admin user other then the "test" user make sure you're signed out of the test user account. Sign in with the alternate ADMIN USER that you just created or had created already and go back to SYSTEM PREFERENCES and click the same USERS icon near the bottom. Now select the TEST user and click the - sign. This should prompt you if your sure you want to delete the user account. And your done.
New User created and Test User deleted... I hope this helps.

Swapping and deleting an Admin User

Hi
I have an old MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. There are two user accounts on the machine, mine and my wifes. My account is currently the Admin user account. I want to delete my account off the mac and make my wifes user account the Admin account. The reason being I don't use the Mac anymore, I have a new one and I'm trying to free up space on the HD and give it a spring clean before upgrading it to Lion.
What's the best approach to swapping the Admin User and deleting the original Admin User? Am I going to run into any Permission or Password issues? Will Disk Utils Repair Permission work it's magic? Would it be better to do this before I upgrade to Lion or are their no advantages/dis-advantages?
Any other advice would be welcome.

Just make your wife's account have admin status.
System Preferences --> Accounts --> select account --> unlock with your admin password --> check the check box that says Allow user to administer this computer.
Close preferences, log out and log in to the account you just made admin to verify it does have admin status. It should say in in the Accounts preferences. And you could test it by deleting the original admin account.
I specified that sequence just so you could verify you set account as admin before you cut-the-cord and delete your original account.
Note, you made no other changes to the second account other than allow it to be an admin. So files associated with that account are unaffected with respect to permissions, owner, and group.
Technically it doesn't matter whether you do it before or after upgrade. But if it were me I would back up my current system before tampering with it and certainly before any major OS upgrade. Always back up before any major upgrade.
Finally, by the way, repair permissions only repairs apple stuff, not user installed stuff, so it wouldn't affect the account's file and folder permissions anyhow.
