JSF session length - how to set? ViewExpiredException - how to avoid?

Hi! Is there something like JSF session? If yes, how can I set its length so that ViewExpiredException is not being thrown so fast? After I restart my server, httpSession in my browser still exists, but ViewExpiredException is thrown. Is there a way to eliminate completly this exception from JSF application??? PLEASE HELP!

Thanks for help. The problem is also that <session-timeout> is for example 1 hour and I get ViewExpiredException after 15 minutes!This was because you restarted the server or redeployed the application, is it? Besides, this would also occur if you use an IDE and are still actively developing the webapp. Tomcat will redeploy automatically on every change of one of the deployed files.
If you read this, please write how do you deal with this excpetion. I would really like to know all your solutions. Thanks in advance.Depends on the purpose of the application. If the user have to be logged in, then I would just set a clear and user-friendly error-page which informs the user that the session has expired and that the user has to re-login. If there is no means of a login but the user just have to enter and submit a form, I would rather keep the session alive using ajaxical polls from the form on. If there is even no means of a form and you used commandlinks/buttons and navigation cases for navigation, then I would get rid of that way of navigation and just use outputlinks for navigation.

How to set session timeout per user

Hi,
Ho do I set the session timeout per User in the
Application.cfm File??
I tried using
<cfif SESSION.UID EQ 1>
<CFAPPLICATION NAME="appControl" SESSIONMANAGEMENT="Yes"
sessiontimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(0,0,20,0)#">
</cfelse>
<CFAPPLICATION NAME="appControl" SESSIONMANAGEMENT="Yes"
sessiontimeout="#CreateTimeSpan(1,0,0,0)#">
</cfif>
But this didnt work because the cfapplication seems to have
to be at the top before I call the variable SESSION.UID which
I set on my login page..
Someone know how to do this??
Regards
Martin

Martin,
Your code example cannot work because the "session" scope
doesn't exist until your application scope is defined. So you have
to handle this manually. Here's how you can get it done. First,
define your application to the maximum sessiontimeout you want to
have.
<CFAPPLICATION NAME="appControl" SESSIONMANAGEMENT="Yes"
SESSIONTIMEOUT="#CreateTimeSpan(1,0,0,0)#">
Then, I don't know how you are doing your login
authentication but when you have authenticated the user, you need
to define the userid and the most recent activity in the session.
Also determine your timeout value based on the userid. See example:
<CFIF IS_AUTHENTICATED>
<CFSET session.user.uid = form.userid>
<CFSET session.user.most_recent_activity = now()>
<CFIF session.user.id eq 1>
<CFSET session.user.timeout_mins = 20>
<CFELSE>
<CFSET session.user.timeout_mins = 1440>
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
Now, all you have to do is check whether the user has been
idle for too long and kill the session by purging all session
variables. For example:

<CFIF structKeyExists(session, "user") and
structKeyExists(session.user, "id")>

<CFIF datediff("n", session.user.most_recent_activity,
now()) gt session.user.timeout_mins>

<CFSET StructClear(session)>

<CFELSE>

<CFSET session.user.most_recent_activity = now()>
</CFIF>
</CFIF>

How to Set up HTTPOnly and SECURE FLAG for session cookies

Hi All,
To fix some vulnerability issues (found in the ethical hacking , penetration testing) I need to set up the session cookies (CFID , CFTOKEN , JSESSIONID) with "HTTPOnly" (so not to access by other non HTTP APIs like Javascript). Also I need to set up a "secure flag" for those session cookies.
I have found the below solutions.
For setting up the HTTPOnly for the session cookies.
1] In application.cfc we can do this by using the below code. Or we can do this in CF admin side under Server Settings » Memory Variables
     this.sessioncookie.httponly = true;
For setting up the secure flag for the session cookies.
2] In application.cfc we can do this by using the below code. Or we can do this in CF admin side under Server Settings » Memory Variables
     this.sessioncookie.secure = "true"
Here my question is how we can do the same thing in Application.cfm?. (I am using ColdFusion version 10). I know we can do this using the below code , incase of HTTPOnly (for example).
<cfapplication setclientcookies="false" sessionmanagement="true" name="test">
<cfif NOT IsDefined("cookie.cfid") OR NOT IsDefined("cookie.cftoken") OR cookie.cftoken IS NOT session.CFToken>
<cfheader name="Set-Cookie" value="CFID=#session.CFID#;path=/;HTTPOnly">
<cfheader name="Set-Cookie" value="CFTOKEN=#session.CFTOKEN#;path=/;HTTPOnly">
</cfif>
But in the above code "setclientcookies" has been set to "false". In my application (it is an existing application) this has already been set to "true". If I change this to "false" as mentioned in the above code then ColdFusion will not automatically send CFID and CFTOKEN cookies to client browser and we need to manually code CFID and CFTOKEN on the URL for every page that uses Session. Right???. And this will be headache.Right???. Or any other way to do this.
Your timely help is well appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I couldnt understand this. I mean how are you relating this with my question.
When Tomcat detects that the communication protocol is secure (that is, HTTPS), it automatically switches on the 'secure' flag for the J2EE session cookie, JsessionID. Tomcat is configured to do that. Coldfusion has no say in it. So, for JsessionID, 'secure' is automatically set to 'false' when HTTP is detected and automatically set to 'true' when HTTPS is detected.
     If this is the case then why I am getting below info for jsessionid (As you mentioned it should set with SECURE flag . Right???). Note that we are using web server - Apache vFabric .And the application that we are using is in https and there is no hit is going from https to http.

Set HTTPOnly / Secure for the session cookies that you wish to use. Each cookie has its pros and cons. For example, the JsessionID cookie is more secure and more Java-interoperable than CFID/CFToken but, from the explanation above, it forbids the sharing of sessions between HTTP and HTTPS.
     I understood that setting thos flags (httponly/secure) is as per my wish. But my question was , is it necessary to set those flags forcf session cookies (cfid and cftoken) as we have enabled J2EE session in CF admin?. Or in other way as the session management is J2EE based do we need to set those flags for CF session cookies?.
BKBK wrote:
3]If I need to set HTTPOnly and SECURE flag for JSESSIONID , how can I do that.
It is sufficient to set the HTTPOnly only. As I explained above, Tomcat will automatically set 'secure' to 'true' when necessary, that is, when the protocol is HTTPS.
     I understood that it is sufficient to set httponly only.but how we will set it for jsessionid?. This is my question. Apache vFabric will alos set secure to true automatically. Any idea??

How to set a variable in portal session using web dynpro java.

Hi,
I have created a web dynpro application, which is running inside portal. I have created a role called "R1". Inside role R1, i have created 3 workset W1, W2 and W3. and inside each workset i have some pages and iviews.
My requirement is when user logins to the portal , and when he clicks on role R1 for the first time, a login page should come (so that we can do revalidation), and when he enters his password again in that login page , then only workset W1, W2 and W3 should be visible/accessible to him and after successful revalidation, if he clicks again on role R1, in that particular portal session, than that login page should not come.
for this, i thought i will set a variable in portal session, whenever user successfully revalidated himself, and if after successful revalidation he clicks again on role R1, i will check in doinit method of webdynpro whether variable is set or not (which i already set on successful revalidation), and if it is set then i will do Donavigation else i will present login page to the user.
Can anyone tells me how to set a variable in portal session using web dynpro java.
thanks

How to set the bit length of the RSA key in ILOM?

It is possible to generate new SSH keys for the ILOM.
set /SP/services/ssh generate_new_key_type=rsa
set /SP/services/ssh generate_new_key_action=true
I noticed that the default length is 1024 bit. How to define a key with 2048 bits?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx.
Per my knowledge, if you have Content Type management enabled for the list or library (if you see a list of content type with the option to add more), the display order of columns is set for each content type.
Drill down into one of them and you'll see the option under the list of columns for that content type.
To apply the column order in the NewDocSet.aspx page, you need to:
Select Site Settings, under Site Collection Administration, click Content type publishing. In the Refresh All Published
Content Types section, choose Refresh all published content types on next
update.
Run two timer jobs(Content Type Hub, Content Type Subscriber) in central admin(Central Administration--> Monitoring--> Review timer jobs).

How to set the BARCODE width and length for label printing..

Hi All,
How to set the Code 39 barcode label format in the sizxe of 0.20" * 1.4". By default while printing barcode size exceeds my current requirement. Please let me know to customize the size of barcode labels.
Thanks.

I don't know what you mean by "Code 39" because my Output Designer software doesn't offer that barcode (or do you mean "code 3 of 9?). In any case, are you trying to control the size of the text (which is what I think of when you refer to "label")? If you are, then just change the font & size. If you are wanting to modify the physical characteristics of the barcode itself (height & length for a certain number of characters) then you are probably out of luck. Or at least in for some trial & error.
There are a series of "barcode.xxx" files in the 'config' folder where Output Designer was installed to. These are text files that contain the physical characteristics of the various barcodes for various printers. The parameters that you would be interested in is the height and width of the bars (black & white). For example, a barcode might be defined as .400 high with narrow bars 3 "dots" wide, wide bars 9 "dots" wide and white space the same or different. Presumably changing these values would affect the generated barcode. For example, in this example the wide bars are 3 times the width of the narrow bars so I would assume that relationship would have to remain. To make the resulting barcode shorter you would then use 2 for the narrow and 6 for the wide.
You would have to make the change in the file(s) that would be used for your printer(s).
There are four width values for each of the parameters. Most of the barcodes only use 2 but some have 4. I'm assuming that when there are 4, like in "4 8 12 16", that the barcode definition has 4 different widths of bars and/or spaces.
There is no guarantee that the scanning hardware & software will "see" and interpret the resulting barcode correctly.

How to set report output to session variable

Hi,
Is there any way to set report output to session variable . If my report returns 1 row and 1 column.
I have a dashboard prompt where i am selecting Name , but i want to find out the ID of that name .
that ID i want to pass to a column Fx , to achieve this i created a intermediate report and i got the ID. Now my problem is how do i set this ID in session variable .
Please help if anyone knows...

Did you read this:
how to set session / presentation variable in repository variable
Dashboard prompt on Month Name but report filter on month ID:
Re: Dashboard prompt on Month Name but report filter on month ID needed
If you have dashboard prompt (name) then you may have only one report that is filtered by name but show id or not show id but use id in the function. Or two reports like in the solution in the second link above and the second report has id in the function and filter by id from the first report. You don't need to set this ID in session variable for this example.
Please close your previous threads if they are answered.

How to set a session variable

Hi,
I would like to know how to set a session variable for the following purpose.
At the top of my application I have a "Welcome <username>" I'd like it instead to have "Welcome <firstname> <lastname>".
So the concept would be after the user logs in succesfully this session variable is dynamically set so it can be displayed.

Hi Scott,
I realize that I can set items etc in pages. The case I'm referring to is a reference in a template. My template has a "Welcome <user name>" ... so the code looks like "Welcome &APP_USER." Anyway to make it say "Welcome first_name last_name" in the template? Note I'll have to get the first/last names from a query
Thanks,

How to set array length correctly in this case

class RunJavaCode implements ActionListener{
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
      try{
        Process proc=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java javaapp");
        InputStream input=proc.getInputStream();
        byte[] b=new byte[3000];
        input.read(b);
        String javaReport=new String(b);
        input.close();
        outputText.setText(javaReport);
      }catch(IOException ioex){System.out.println("IOException is "+ioex);}
}how to set this array(byte[] b) length correctly? I mean this array length should not only save memory,but also enough to use('enough to use' mean that read outputed info from console to this byte array never overflow)

Hi,
you cannot know in advance, how many bytes will be read. But the read-method returns the number of bytes actually read and this is important!
So at least you have to write:        int r = input.read(b);
        String javaReport=new String(b, 0, r); However, you still do not know, whether there is even more output available. You could however retrieve the data in a loop and append it e.g. to a StringBuffer, until EOF is encountered.
