Key mapping with rwservlet

Hi,
I am working on running reports through the web using html forms and rwservlet. The trouble comes when I try to use cgicmd.dat to do key mapping. The utility "showmap," that is used with rwservlet, shows the file has changed, but under "Parsed map file entries," my new keys are not displayed. How can I get these new key entries to work?
Thanks
Sarah

Hello,
Here is an extract from Reports documentation:
Oracle9iAS Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web
Release 2 (9.0.2)
Part Number A92102-01
3.3.2 Reloading the Key Map File
Use the RELOAD_KEYMAP parameter to specify whether the key map file
(cgicmd.dat) should be reloaded each time the servlet receives a request.
For example:
RELOAD_KEYMAP=yes
This is useful if you frequently make changes to the map file and want the
process of loading your changes to be automatic. Runtime performance will be
affected according to how long it takes to reload the file.
Typically, this parameter is set to no in a production environment and yes in
a testing environment.

Key Mapping with Oracle Reports

I am currently trying to run report requests using the Oracle Report Server however the problem that I have is that we need to send database username/password information over the network. From a security perspective this is not acceptable.
One way we were going to get around this is to "wrap" the Oracle Report servlet with another servlet, so the client browser sends the wrapper servlet information such as report location and report name, and the
wrapper servlet adds in additional information such as the username and
password, eliminating the need for the client application to know this information.
The problem is that the URL returned to the client when the report is generated contains the username/password, which again is not
acceptable. As I have seen mention that Oracle Reports can be run over the Internet,
I assume that there is a mechanism for hiding this information. Do you know how to achieve this?.
I am keen to just hard code the user name, password, and database connection into a key mapping file to resolve this security issue. However we are having trouble getting this method to work with the Oracle Report Servlet. We are using WebLogic Server to serve these servlets.

Credential Store - how to list keys/maps with WLST ?

Hi,
How can i list the credential store's maps and keys with wlst ?
I can see an entry of a specific map/key using listCred but i cant find which script command shows the configured maps and keys of the store.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25054_01/core.1111/e10043/csfadmin.htm#CACCGBJE
TIA

Hi Masood,
Full Marks to you. I did exactly what you described and it works. It is indeed a pain that we have to resort to coding to achieve simple tasks like this in WebUI.
Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

Problem with key mapping in 10g

Hello,
my client is using key mapping on their reports server. It works fine except for parameter values...
I can run this URL:
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet?kr+2002+20
and there is a mapping for kr in the cgicmd.dat file like this:
kr: report=KR userid=<user>/<pw>@orcl desformat=html destype=cache p_verksamhetsar=%1
p_verksamhetsar is a parameter of the report (meaning year).
My problem is that when the report is run using the above URL the parameter gets the value 2002=
An equal sign is added! The year column is a varchar2 so the query works but gives no result.
I get the same problem if I try this URL:
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet?kr%262002%2620
If I run this URL it works fine (with a result as well):
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet?report=KR&userid=<user>/<pw>@orcl&desformat=html&destype=cache&p_verksamhetsar=2004
Any suggestions?
Kind regards

Hi Kranthi,
I think you mean %* at the end, meaning all parameters sent.
Yes, I use this approach now as I've been unable to get %1, %2 etc to work.
Strange, because %1 is described in the manual and I feel I use it like they say.
Well, it works in a way, just that = is appended to the values.
It has that buggy smell :)
Kind regards
Tomas

Problem with childs nodes and automatic key mapping in a Data Object

Hi experts!
I'm doing the service order tutorial from the mobile help at [this link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile71/helpdata/en/21/9b5b924c3b434fba4767731794b029/frameset.htm] and I have a problem...
In the topic "Modeling the Equipment Data Object", says you have to mark the "Automatic Key Mapping" checkbox. So when I had to create a third child node ( the location node ) the system raised an exception with the message "Deselect automatic key mapping flag for more than two-level nodes". I'm trying deselecting the flag and creating the location node, but when I want mark again the automatic key mapping flag, this is disabled.
What can I do to solve this and create the three child nodes with the flag marked? It's a configuration thing?
Any help it's very welcome. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Simon.

The thing is: Its not allowed to use automatic keymapping if you have more than two levels. This is why the message showed up, and this is why its been disabled.
What automatic keymapping does: Figures out automatically which child node belongs to which parent (by guessing from the field name and type, which fields in the child correspond to which key fields of the parent).
On three levels, this becomes more complicated => Its disabled.
How to do keymapping yourself instead of having the DOE do it automatically: Do 'Explicit keymapping' from each child to its parent. Explicit keymapping is done by clicking on the corresponding menu button in the child node. Here you need to associate child node fields (they need not be key fields of the child, but they are allowed to be that as well) to each of its parent nodes key fields (so that each child can be associated to its parent).
Cheers

Please Help::How to display a Map with LIsts as Keys and Values using JSTL

Hi,
I need some assistance on how to display a Map in JSP using struts or core JSTL. I have a HashMap which has a List of keys and each key maps to a value of an ArrayList.i.e I have an ArrayList of taxCodes and each taxCode maps to a value of taxDetails which is an ArrayList of details for for that particular taxCode. I have some trouble to display each taxCode then display taxDetails for each taxCode. Here is my code below:

hi evnafets,
yes i need a nested for loop.I have tried your advice but my bean properties are not found.Am getting this error:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Unable to find a value for "key_item" in object of class "java.lang.String" using operator "."
I have tried this as stated earlier in the post:I have tried to make the method getItemTaxDetails return a List and get the returned list value as taxDetails. I then tested to display this list on JSP and its displaying fine.
public List getItemTaxDetails(String key_year,String key_office,
            String key_client,String key_company,int key_item){
        ItemTax taxDetail = null;

Key mapping on Symbol MC 9000 with Websapconsole

Hi Experts
I am trying to map hardver key on mobile device MC 9000 which should work as a function keys as on the desktop. I am using websapconsole 7.1 and as a browser I use pocket internet explorer.
In websapconsole administrator I checked field "Function key mapping" but it doesn't work.
I read that should by use CTRL + key but it doesnt work. I also try software Naurtech but with the same result.
Could anyone give me some suggestion how to map hardver(buttons on device) keys to function keys?
Urgently
Thanks in advance

Thrums1,
I've never had to "register" ViaVoice after updating the system. I thus suspect you haven't fully followed my above, three-step advice (particularly step 3).
1) Reinstall ViaVoice from CD.
2) Update to the latest version (using the patch downloadable from Nuance's website).
3) Replace the “temp” and “users” folders (in the "ViaVoice" folder at the upper level of your home directory) by a previous copy thereof. When I say previous copy, I mean a copy from when ViaVoice was still working properly, e.g. a copy from when it was running under Tiger.
As I said, I've gotten ViaVoice to survive several system updates by following the above steps. To my knowledge, the last step is critical since it saves you from having to reconfigure ViaVoice under the new operating system (in this case Leopard). I suspect that ViaVoice is crashing on your system because it's trying to start some module of the SetUpAssistant that is incompatible with Leopard (as many are). If you instead use old copies of the "temp" and "users" folders (from the previous system), then ViaVoice doesn't have to go through the initial "registration" process; ViaVoice doesn't need the SetUpAssistant; and all is (more or less) fine.
Good luck!
BTW, to my knowledge, Dictate only runs on Intel Macs. It thus won't run on a G4 iBook, just as it won't run on my PowerBook G4.

Problems with ViaVoice under Leopard, especially key mapping problems

ViaVoice's behavior has changed considerably under Leopard. First I will discuss the key mapping problem, since I'm eagerly looking for an answer to this problem. At the end of this post, I will voice some of the other problems I've experienced for those who may be interested. The key mapping problem may be specific to the fact that I use a foreign keyboard with a US version of ViaVoice.
INTRO:
I have used ViaVoice on my Mac for years, more or less without problems (ViaVoice's bugginess is notorious).
Those who know ViaVoice will know that one has two general options for dictation. One can dictate into ViaVoice's so-called SpeakPad, which allows special formatting, editing and dictation error correction within the dictated text, or one can dictate into "external" software such as Microsoft Word, in which case ViaVoice just sends a string of characters to that software. SpeakPad appears to make strong use of the operating system's built-in functionality for character formatting, document formatting, etc.
*MY PROBLEM*
I have a German keyboard on my PowerBook, yet dictate in US English. When I dictated into SpeakPad under Tiger, all characters appeared correctly. However, when I dictated into Microsoft Word using Tiger, I had to switch the keyboard mapping from German to US to get all characters (that means including the characters that are located at different positions on a German keyboard than they are on a US keyboard such as y, z, apostrophes and parentheses) to appear correctly.
Under Leopard, things have changed. Now it doesn't matter whether I dictate into SpeakPad or Word; the results are the same and many characters do not appear correctly.
If set to a German keyboard, y and z appear as expected. To name a few irregularities:
"(" appears as ")"
")" appears as "="
apostrophes appear as "#" and
";" appears as ","
If set to a US keyboard, y and z are interchanged. "(" and ")" appear as expected. Apostrophes appear as "\" and ";" appears as ","
By comparison, if typed (as opposed to dictated, as in the examples above) "correctly" (i.e. based on the letters printed on the keyboard) on a German keyboard set to imitate a US keyboard:
y and z are interchanged
apostrophes appear as "|"
"(" appears as "*"
")" appears as "(" and
";" appears as the symbol for "less than"
Since I don't have a US keyboard, I can't say how it would behave if set to imitate a German keyboard, i.e. if there's a correlation to the results I get when I dictate.
Since I was previously able to dictate correctly into SpeakPad by setting the keyboard to "German" and into Word by setting the keyboard to "US," I presume that this is a problem in Leopard, not ViaVoice.
*OTHER PROBLEMS WITH VIAVOICE UNDER LEOPARD*
In addition to the aforementioned key mapping problems (that may be specific to those of us with foreign keyboards), ViaVoice appears to have lost considerable functionality in Leopard. I cannot access SpeakPad's Preferences and the correction window. Moreover, the traffic-light like window buttons have disappeared from the VoiceCenter (although they work if you click where they should be). SetupAssistent appears to function.
I've written to Nuance about these problems, but have little hope that they will invest the time in producing a patch since they haven't released any updates since 2003.

Hp t510 right alt key mapping not working with ctrl + s

Using the HP t510 to launch a xendesktop session via storefront. We have a mission critical application that uses the ctrl + alt + s hotkey to secure itself. The left alt key with ctrl + s is working as it should but the right alt key does not. When testing in the win7 on screen keyboard the right alt and ctrl stay lit up. When hitting the S key after depressing both the right alt + ctrl (right or left ctrl doesn't matter) the alt keys disappear from the on screen keyboard as if they were no longer pushed. They hotkey combination never makes it to the application and it does not secure itself.
I've tested this same workflow on an ASUS thin client, desktop, and laptop hardware with no issues. It does in fact seem to be some hotkey mapping the HP device has baked into it using the right alt key.
Has anyone seen any issues that even closely mimic this? I've seen some for ctrl + alt + del but their fixes don't work for this specific issue.

Hello xXenStatex,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that the alt key mapping is not working with ctrl + s on your Thin Client, and I would be happy to guide you towards a resolution!
I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure, I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums, since this is a commercial product. You can do this at:

JSF/ADF - Referencing a Map with Integer keys

I'm generating several ADF input text boxes from a HashMap using Java code in my managed bean. The Map contains Integer keys and String values. Each input text corresponds to a key/value pair.
I'm trying to build a string to bind the text box to the String object, but I'm struggling with the EL syntax for Maps. I know a Map with String keys would look like this:
#{bean.object.map['stringKey']}
But is it possible to specify a non-String key?
Thank you.

Hi,
why don't you try it ? My assumption is that yes, it
will work because Integer objects have a toString()
method
FrankI'm building the binding string in my bean, so Integer's value is inserted, resulting in:
#{bean.object.map[1]}
I don't believe the EL supports this for Maps. At least I wasn't able to get it to work. I also tried:
#{bean.object.map['1']}
This suggest a string '1' which isn't right either. My guess is that it isn't possible, but I'm hoping someone can prove me wrong.
From searching the forum I've read that calling processUpdates() might eliminate the need for the ValueBinding step, but I'm not sure. If I called:
component.setValue(myString);
Then processUpdates() on each component after the form submit, would this get the its text back to the bean object? If so, could the code go in the form's save action method?
Thanks.

Strange problem with key map file 10.1.2

Here is the entry in cgicmd.dat when running showmap:
ssipdf: userid=user@conn destype=cache desformat=pdf report=%1 %*
Here is the URL:
http://localhost:8889/reports/rwservlet?ssipdf&refcritd.rdf&projectid=76
I'm getting this message when using a key map file to run reports:
REP-110: File 'refcritd.rdf=' not found.
REP-0110: Unable to open file 'refcritd.rdf='.
Where are these equal signs getting appended to the filename coming from??
I know the report exists and works, because if I manually enter all the params in the URL the report runs fine.
This was working in 9.0.4 and I copied the same cgicmd.dat file from that version.
Any ideas?

ssipdf: userid=user@conn destype=cache desformat=pdf %*
Try this .....!
There is a slight change in kepMap in Release 2

REP-52005: The specified key userlogin does not exist in the key map file.

Hi,
I am using oracle 11g report server. I am getting the error of REP-52005: The specified key userlogin does not exist in the key map file.
I updated the user_string in cgicmd.dat file. My cgicmd.dat file content is below
; OracleAS Reports Services                       ;
; CGICMD.DAT                                      ;
; Example CGICMD.DAT Mapping file                 ;
; Syntax:
;      KEY : VALUE
; Where:
; KEY - the first argument of the rwservlet URL request (case sensitive).
; VALUE - command line parameters and/or special parameters.
; Keys can be referenced in the following ways:
;    1. Parameter on command line to the reports servlet
;          e.g. http://machine/servlet/rwservlet?KEY
;    2. Parameter on command line to a reports jsp
;          e.g. http://machine/mydir/myreport.jsp?KEY
;    3. Within a reports jsp - in the rw:report custom tag
;          e.g. <rw:report parameters="KEY">
; In addition to the Reports Server command line parameters, VALUE can include special parameters
; represented as "%X", where X identifies the parameter. Currently recognized special
; parameters:
; %0 - %9 - 0..9 arguments from original rwservlet URL request. Note that %0 refers to the key itself.
; %* - entire contents (all arguments) of original rwservlet URL request.
; %D - request users to input database userid everytime they run the report.
; %P - request for report parameter form in HTML format. It generates the PARAMFORM=HTML
;       construction on the first submission of the URL and PARAMFORM=NO upon parameter form submission.
; CGICMD.DAT Usage Notes
;   1. Multiple keys in this file MUST be separated by an EXTRA empty line.
;   2. Extra spaces are ignored. Multi-line entries allowed.
;   3. Lines starting with ";" character are treated as a comments.
;   4. Comments within a key or key value are NOT allowed.
;   5. NLS language support is provided and can be used (encoding should match the one
;      used in HTML request - no language conversion of any kind is attempted.
;   6. For %P special parameter, HTML format is by default mapped to the HTMLTABLE format in this release.
;      The HTML format in the future may be mapped to the HTMLCSS format.
;;;;;;;;;;;; Example Key Entries
; Example 1: Run a simple breakb report and output to HTML

; Example 2: prompt for userid the first time, then use database userid stored in the cookie subsequently.
report_defaultid: report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver
; Example 3: use %D to require user authentication every time
report_secure: report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver1 %D

uncomment #KEYPMAPFILE=CGICMD.DAT. remove the #
then for development set
reloadkeymap=yes (same file - rwservlet.properties).
Now it should reload everytime. (otherwise for every change u need to restart oc4j_bi_forms)
(For * production* may be you want to set reloadkeymap=no once all testing is done)
see cgicmd.dat for many examples of using keymap file

REP-52005: The specified key rep_drill does not exist in the key map file.

Hi
I am using Forms and reports version 11.1.1.4.0
Weblogic 10.3
I wanted to create a drilldown report
I have modified the cgicmd.dat file in the below location
C:\ORACLE\Middleware\user_projects\domains\CL2DOMAIN\config\fmwconfig\servers\WLS_REPORTS\applications\reports_11.1.1.2.0\configuration\cgicmd.dat
by adding the below line to the end
rep_drill: userid=JOE/JOE123@JOEDB server=rep_wls_reports_dsv-002_2inst desformat=pdf destype=cache paramform=no %*
restarted the reports server
In CUSTOMERS.RDF I have placed a link on the customer field using the below code
SRW.SET_HYPERLINK_ATTRS('TARGET="_new"');
SRW.SET_HYPERLINK('http://192.168.1.1:9002/reports/rwservlet?rep_drill+report='||'CUSTOMERS.rep+P_CUCODE='||CHR(39)||:CS_CUSTOMER||CHR(39));
There are so many parameters passing to the report JOBS.RDF
When I run the report and click on the link it gives me an error
"REP-52005: The specified key rep_drill does not exist in the key map file."
When I replace the rep_drill in the link with
userid=JOE/JOE123@JOEDB+server=rep_wls_reports_dsv-002_2inst+desformat=pdf+destype=cache+paramform=no
the report work perfect
Can somebody help me please

I said
REPORTS_URL value:
http://appserver4.rockefeller.edu:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=
It looks like you did the following:
REPORTS_URL value:
http://appserver4.rockefeller.edu:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=test.rdf
Try removing the test.rdf.

Now it should reload everytime. (otherwise for every change u need to restart oc4j_bi_forms)
(For * production* may be you want to set reloadkeymap=no once all testing is done)
see cgicmd.dat for many examples of using keymap file

KEY MAP FILE - To hide user id and password

I have read all the documentation on hiding your connection details from the URL using the key map file, but I have a problem:
I have several reports which all use the same user id and connection string. So all I want in my key file is the connection string, but because I don't specify a report in the key file I get an error.
In my cgicmd.dat file I have the following:
MyKeyName: USERID=my_user/my_password@my_database
However when I call the reports from a URL like so:
http://my_server/reports/rwservlet?MyKeyName&report=my_report
I get the error saying that no report is specified on the command line. Surely I don't have to create a key map file entry for every single report with REPORT=report_name????
I have also tried this URL which also gives me the same error:
http://my_server/reports/rwservlet?report=my_report&cmdkey=MyKeyName

Nr. 299696,
You are almost there. What you are looking for is a characters to put behind your key to enable that users specifies there parameters. In your case Reports name.
Please check cgicmd.dat for the correct characters. In the file there's lots of examples, so just search.
It might be ?* like
MyKeyName: USERID=my_user/my_password@my_database ?*
However, I'm not 100% sure on that and I don't have an environment right now to check. Please check the cgicmd.dat for the correct one, and then please update this thread.
