  • OBIEE access denied for some users only

    Hi All,
    we are using OBIEE 10.1.3.4 version on windows envorinment .The users can access the OBIEE reports using 'PORTALPATH' session varible in RPD.For some of the users are got "access denied" while they are accessing for thir particular dashboard.Eariler these user got access this dashboard with out any errors.We dnt changed in our system anything from last three months.
    We have no idea why we are getting these error for particular users only.Its Prod issue we need to reslove these error ASAP.
    we are getting these error"acess denied for user to path/shared/shared/_test/testdashboard
    Error Codes:09XNZMXB"
    but last one year its working without any issues .From our side we dnt did any changes in production like RPD level,Catalog level and config file changes , we have no idea why suddenly we are getting these kind of error for some users only not for all users.
    Could u please advice me how to reslove this PROD issueASAP.
    Thanks,

    Well its Prod (you have a dashboard called testdashboard in Prod?) anyway - someone might have changed the presentation catalogue permissions on the dashboard. All it takes is for someone to remove 'Everyone' or change a Group permission and it could effect.
    If they changed the Parent folder and cascaded the changes down this might cause this issue.
    You have a folder called 'Shared' - check the groups that the people are in have 'Traverse' , 'Read' or higher. Also chek dashboard permissions themselves from Settings-Manage Interactive Dashboards - Check the Padlock icon.
    Are you users getting allocated into the correct WEBGROUPS ? Is this assisngment done explicitly in the webcat or via an RPD Variable ? Have you checked NQQueryl.log to make sure any init blocks are completing successfully?
    Either persmissions have changed or group memebership is not completing.
    Good luck

    No, Firefox is user choice rules over the "wants" of individual websites as far as disabling contextual menus and the keyboard commands.
    Placing a transparent image over the image will keep the less technical user from saving the main image. If they do try to save it all they'll get is the transparent image overlay.

  • Flex 4 does not dispatch keyboard events for ENTER key.

    Hello everyone. I think I have a strange problem with Flex 4 Beta (4.0.0.8909). My application has had event listener for keyUp event for a month now and suddenly (two days ago) I've noticed that keyUp event is not dispatched for ENTER (ALT also) key. Anyone know why? By the way, I've tried this with keyDown event, also 4.0.0.8847 version of SDK - still the same: no keyboard events for ENTER (and ALT) key.
    Here is the sample application that has got this issue:
    <s:Application
       xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
       xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
       xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
       minWidth="640" minHeight="480"
       keyUp="application1_keyUpHandler (event)">
       <fx:Script>
          <![CDATA[
             import mx.controls.Alert;
             protected function application1_keyUpHandler (event: KeyboardEvent):void
                Alert.show ("Key up: " + event.keyCode);
          ]]>
       </fx:Script>
       <s:layout>
          <s:BasicLayout/>
       </s:layout>
       <s:TextArea verticalCenter="0" horizontalCenter="0" width="200"/>
    </s:Application>
    If you run this application and try typing anything in a TextArea you will get alerts with key codes. However, if you press ENTER (or ALT), you will get no alert.
    I'm pretty sure the code above is right so that means there is a bug in latest nightly builds of SDK (i would swhitch to an older build if i knew which one does not have this bug).
    Any ideas?

    That's true, but in this case, I think the text editing code is eating ENTER key in order to prevent parents from seeing it and acting on it (like a submit button).  We'll see if we can find a way around that.
    You can get the ENTER key now by listening in capture phase.

    The enter key isn't being disposed of by textedit, the attached example code works without error if you a- remove the alert box and b-set the focus to your text area on initialisation. I agree that pressing the enter key then calling a dialog box will result in the enter key being "gobbled up" as  the enter key is overridden by the dialog box code.
    I think the first suggestion should be to anyone don't use dialogboxes for testing code. If for some reason debugging isn't desirable instead of a trace statement a simple label  can be used as a 'fake' trace.

    Message was edited by: David_F57: I worded this wrong, imho there is no need for a work around, the textarea component works as it should. When intercepting 'system' keycodes there is a need to consider the effect of the intercept and code appropriately to that end.

  • Change keyboard configuration for special keys

    Hi guys,
    I want to change the default behaviour for some special keys when running windows.
    I want the Cmd (Mac) key to be the Alt (Win) key and the Fn (Mac) key to be the Ctrl (Win) key.
    Is this possible?

    Thanks for your answer Fortuny, but it seems the Ctrl and Alt keys can't be re-mapped using that application... I'll keep searching
    Edit: You pointed me in the right direction I found a similar application to the MSKLC called SharpKeys, I was not able to edit the Fn key, but at least a could remap the left Cmd key to be the Alt key.

  • MBP Keyboard equivalents for PC Keys?

    Not sure where to post this question (OSX or here) so here goes for starters.
    Are there standard MBP keyboard combinations that perform the functions of certain 101-key dedicated keys? Such as PageUp/Down, Home/End, (PC) CTRL+Home, CTRL+End, etc? I feel like I've stumbled onto a few, yet there are times (in Safari or some Mac apps) where I can't seem to move as efficiently, using the keyboard, as I was accustomed to on my PC. (I realize key combos could vary by software applications---just looking for any "typical" or fairly standard Mac key combos for easier page/screen/spreadsheet navigation.)
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the link, RK... lots to absorb, and hopefully some of those might be applicable in other applications. Perhaps it really comes down to which software programs I'm using, and what the developers of those programs created as shortcut commands, since it seems that some don't handle the same keyboard combinations the same way as other programs...
    (As an aside, I'm baffled why the various menus (such as Safari) still give keyboard shortcuts by symbol such as \-, for the Option Key, when in fact the MBP no longer prints all the Mac symbols on the keys themselves! (Just the cloverleaf on Command.) So you need a cheatsheet to remind you which Apple symbol belongs to fn, control, option, in order to then try and memorize the shortcut! Still, don't get me wrong---I'm thrilled with my year-old switch to Mac!)

  • Wireless Keyboard Shortcut for Home Key

    I have the wireless keyboard w/o the keypad which I use with my Mini.
    On my MBP, the fn-Up Arrow key combination functions as the Home key on keyboards with the built-in keypad. This shortcut doesn't work on the wireless keyboard.
    Do I have to define the shortcut in the SysPre/KB Shortcuts? Or is there something I need to turn on? Or...?
    TIA.

    Well, it works today. Problem solved. Thanks for looking.

  • Release Of Forecast From DP To SNP (For Some Locations, Only Baseline)

    Dear All,
    Generally, we follow the following procedure....In the month begining, we generate the baseline forecast for all the locations (we are having around 20 branches). Then we used to open the DP planning book for a couple of days to our branch persons so that they are able to feed their correction. After which we release the final forecast i.e. Baseline Forecast +/- Branch correction to SNP for further proceesing.
    This month, we opened the planning book (as usual). Branches did  the branch correction. But on final checking, we found that around 4 -  5 branches have done corrections / updations very vagely i.e. roughly. So, we wants to ignore their branch correction.
    My query be that is it possible that while releasing the Forecast from DP to SNP... can we release baseline forecast for selective five branches and for the rest of the branches, we wants to release final forecast key figure i.e. Baseline +/- Branch correction.
    Kindly advise further.
    With Best Regards,

    You have not mentioned at what level you are doing the forecasting. If forecasting is done at material- branch level then what you are asking can be achieved easily. All you have to do is go to /n/sapapo/mc90 ( or create a release profile) and for the branches for which you want to release baseline forecast , you have to specify the baseline forecast keyfigure in the input and specify the material branches in the i/p criteria. For adjusted forecast you have to use another variant and specify the adjusted forecast key figure and the corresponding material branches.
    Iam not sure how your requirement can be achieved in case you are forecasting @ material level.
    Thanks

  • Change keyboard output for specific key

    Hello,
    I own an iMac with an Apple (USB) keyboard. I'd like to use the right-side numbered part of the keyboard as a calculator. However that's very inconvenient because I' European (Greek) and the dot (.) sign is used in Europe as a thousands separator. So when I need to type "33,01" I need to search the comma (,) and I lose plenty of time.
    Is there any app or way to change this behavior? I'd like the right side dot (.) - +the one sitting between 0 and "return"+ - to act as comma.
    Regards

  • How do I Get Album Art for Some Tracks Only?

    I feel really stupid for asking this but I have tried to find out how to do it to no avail!
    I only want to get the album art for actual albums but whenever I click on "Get Album Artwork" it goes through my whole library!
    I have tried by highlighting the songs and then clicking get album artwork... did not work.
    I have tried only selecting the songs I wanted [using checkbox thingy] and then clicking get album artwork... did not work.
    I feel there is a really simple and obvious way to do this but cannot for the life of me figure out how.

  • Texts not going through for some people only

    Hello,
    The problem I'm having is that my niece(iphone5), 2 nephews(iphone4), one nephews girlfriend(iphone4), my sister and her fiance(iphone4) all have verizon as the provider for there service and since day 1 when my nephew bought the iphone4 all the texts I've sent him never went through. Here's the funny thing....everyone else gets them except him and I don't get his either. I have a blackberry 9310 with boostmobile so I decided to send him a message but to the default verizon phone email address so I sent one to [email protected] and another to [email protected] he only received the one I sent to the vzwpix address but when he replied I never got it. I asked him to send it to boost's default sms address ([email protected]) and finally I got it, for the first 3 weeks it worked but I had to keep the first text he sent me and just reply to it (I know a big never ending reply) anyway.... all of a sudden without any warning we ended up not getting anything all over again but everyone else is fine. I have to text his girlfriend to tell him whatever I need to tell him and they live together and share the same plan soooooo..........HEEELLPPPP!! Has anyone out there had this type of issue? also, its been a good 8 months of this and yes I reset his phone, I reset my phone, I upgraded his and mine with the latest everything and still no luck.  

        Thanks for following up, ProRay298. Does your friend also have an iPhone? If so, please have her check her blocked contacts by going to Settings>Phone>Blocked and make sure you are not listed. Is it possible that she shares her Apple ID with another iPhone? Please also try disabling your iMessage by going to Settings>Messages and switching iMessage to off. Keep us posted.

  • Wireless keyboard stops working when some keys adobe photoshop is open and being used.

    My apple wireless keyboard stops working some keys when using adobe photoshop. The lestras not work. Stop when I start using the stamp program for example. Is there any solution to this problem. For other macs minis did not have the same problem.

  • Shift+ some keys missed in jumanji, dwm on Sony Vaio F12

    I have a strange issue on my Sony Vaio F12. Shift + some keys seem to become <some keys> only. For example Shift+space in jumanji is interpreted as Space only. Shift+Mod4+Ctrl+Q in dwm isn't caught properly, while Shift+Mod4+Enter is. xev seem to get it right, though. The state is 0x0 when pressing Space only, and 0x1 at Shift+Space.
    (Note: I'm currently moving to a fresh Arch install (x86_64) on a new computer. These key combinations, including the dwm one, worked fine on my old 32bit install on a Dell XPS m1330, so the configs should be right).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,

    Thanks for the suggestion about customizing function keys, however, since the keys currently do nothing there's nothing to be re-mapped. (Such as VolumeUp => Page Up.)
    As far as I can tell, use of the Fn key actually blocks the arrow key press events on the Yoga, so not even Up, Down. Left, Right presses are received by the OS if/when the function key is pressed. (This be can verified in any basic text editing program such as Notepad. Additionally, I wrote a program to display any/all received key events and confirmed no event occurs in such cases.)
    The keyboard firmware or driver must be receiving the key state changes but simply ignores any arrow key event if the function key is pressed. I suspect any change to this behavior would have to come from the firmware or driver, which currently intercepts the hardware button presses before the OS may have a chance to redirect them. So I think the Lenovo hardware/software guys would have to enable this, which I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.
    I like the use of the function key in conjunction with the arrows because that way I don't need to move my fingers off the arrow keys in order to move the text cursor to the beginning or end of a line. (I certainly still find the fixed Home and End keys on the keyboard necessary.)
    (Oh, and I apologize for inserting an image >50k, I didn't know the forum rules concerning a maximum image size.)
