Knowledge Center User Import Utility Password Issue

Hello,
I have imported some users using an Text File but the users are having trouble logging into their accounts in the Knowledge Center.
"Login Invalid. Please verify your Username and Password."
I have already checked the user properties, and it's okay.
The Text file looks like this:
USERNAME
PASSWORD
FIRSTNAME
LASTNAME
MINIT
EMAIL
NTINTEGRATED
USERGROUP
upkuser
user01
Name
Lastname
L
group01
If I change the password in the user properties, the users can access Knowledge Center.
Do I need to change the password for every imported user?
Many thanks.

Hello Sumeet,
You are right in saying 'The issue happens when importing from a text file.  The User Import Utlity makes all passwords lower case.'
Oracle accepted this as a bug and provided me with patch Oracle Knowledge Base with ID 18328709. and the issue is resolved.
Thanks and Regards,
Jayraj

  • Authenticating UPK Knowledge Center users in a different domain (hosted env

    Our users are in-house MSAD users, while Knowledge Center is hosted by an external provider. The techies are a bit flummoxed and try to tell us our software should accomplish this while we think there ought to be a back-end solution. We have to get the domains talking to each other somehow but they would be communicating across the Internet so all sorts of security considerations are surely involved. Server/network/domain configuration? Third-party software? Has anyone come across this situation? What's the best way to get Knowledge Center to recognise and authenticate MSAD users on Domain X while Knowledge Center itself sits on Domain Y?
    Thanks

  • Knowledge Center Login - Users add themselves

    Hi,
    I have UPK Standard edition s/w, version 11.0. In the document "Knowledge Center: User and Content Management" (part E23917-01) it states that "users can add themselves during login to the Knowledge Center". I cannot see anywhere that I can this up.
    Perhaps my installation is not compatible and I would like to know what is lacking to be able to do this please. (A thought: Is it to do with Windows or Standard user authentication?)
    Can anyone advise please?

  • Using the Import utility from other users and going to a different schema

    I has a user today with rights
    Insert into XXXX.TABLE values(); Works just fine for another schema's table which has select,insert,update,delete.
    We tried to utiile the import utility from OTHER USERS
    Insert failed ORA-00942
    Do you want ot ignore all errors
    Even though we have rights to the schema under OTHER USERS.
    When connected as the owner it works fine.

    I've be trying to find a work-around to this issue & found this old post -- I'm having the same problem.
    I'm using Oracle 11g and SD 2.1.1.64.
    I have user A with a table that grants select,insert,update, and delete privs to user B. Logging into user B I, of course, can do inserts, deletes, etc. on the the table in user A's schema.
    When I use the import data feature to load data from a CSV file I can't get it to work while logged into user B. It does work fine if logged into user A. It looks like the issue may be that it doesn't put the schema prefix of "A." on the insert statements.
    Has anyone found a way to get around this issue yet?

  • Knowledge Center "Forgot Your Password?" function not working

    After clicking the "Forgot Your Password?" link on the Knowledge Center login page and entering a valid username and email address, an error message states: "Your request could not be completed. Please contact your Knowledge Center Administrator."
    This is occurring for all users in the Knowledge Center. Any ideas? Are there any domain requirements for the server email address defined in the server tab? Trying to think of what is causing this.
    Thanks!

    The option you are talking about is with UPK 12.1. Not sure if it is also available in 11.1.0.2. With 11.1.0.2, you can specify the SMTP details in KCenter\web.config file. There is parameter for SMTP relay server. Mention your mailrelay server and the mails should start working.

  • I am receiving the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' problem on Adobe Muse CC 2014 and I cannot access the xml file that is supposed to fix this issue?

    I am a PC user and I have Adobe Creative Cloud Muse 2014. I have received the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' error when trying to upload my muse site to my ftp host, GoDaddy. I have successfully done this in the past and only recently it has stopped working. I looked online at the FAQ Adobe Muse Help | Uploading an Adobe Muse Site to a third-party hosting service and it said to download the ftpprefs.xml file but this file simply leads to a blank page that says /*Not found*//*Not found*/.
    Can someone direct me to a working page with this file or provide a different solution? Thank you!

    Hello,
    As you are getting error [Access denied: 530] it means issue is with access. Either the username and password you are entering is incorrect or you do not have proper permissions.
    I would suggest you to contact Godaddy to either reset password or reset the permissions.

  • Time Capsule won't accept my user name and password for access - Help!

    Hi all,
    My Time Capsule seemed to stop working one day and I had to do a hard reset with the little button at the back. After that it worked and I restored my wireless network settings but now I can't access the Time Capsules hard drive with Time Machine.
    When I try to choose it as my Backup Disk in the Time Machine preferences it says "Enter your user name and password so Time Machine can access the file server "Our Time Capsule" (the name of my time capsule). However, every time I try to enter my password I get "Sorry, you entered an invalid username or password".
    I've already tried several resets of the Time Capsule and I've also tried logging on my computer as the Root user and changing my administrator account password back and forth but no go.
    Help! and Thanks.

    Norman & Harry,
    Consider the following:
    *_Time Capsule Keeps Asking Me For a Password_*
    It will be important to know what is going on, or what you are doing when it asks for the password. Is it asking for a password only when Time Machine attempts a backup? Consider this:
    It is NOT your username and password it wants when you try accessing the Time Capsule. (I know... it SAYS "username and password") But it means the Time Capsule's Name and Password.
    You will find that by launching Airport Utility.
    Select the TC on the left.
    Click "Manual Setup".
    Click the "Time Capsule" Tab.
    You will see "Time Capsule Name:" and "Time Capsule Password".
    Make sure “Remember password in keychain" is checked.
    That is the information you need to enter when it asks for "username & password."
    *I Don’t Remember What My Time Capsule Password Is*
    You can see what your current TC password is by going into Keychain.
    Open your Keychain and select "login" from the Keychains pane in the top left. Highlight "Passwords" in the Category pane from the lower left.
    Sort all the items by Kind. Note everything labeled "Airport...". How many do you have listed? There should only be one "Airport base station password" for each base station that you have active. Also, there should only be one "Airport network password" for each network you have created. If there are more than these, then delete all but the ones with the most recent Modification date.
    To see what passwords are being stored, double-click your Time Capsules' entry. A new window will appear.
    Put a check beside "Show Password". You may be asked for your own Admin password so enter that.
    Now the Password field will display the password you entered into Airport Utility for your Time Capsule
    *It Still Won’t Accept the TC Name and Password*
    Launch Airport Utility --> Manual Setup.
    Select "Disks" in the tool bar above.
    Click the "File Sharing" tab.
    Is "File Sharing" checked? It should be.
    What is selected beside "Secure Shared Disks"? If it says "With Accounts" or "With a Disk Password" then the system will ask you for a password every time it mounts the TC hard disk. If you switch it to "With Time Capsule Password" then use the password you designated earlier in the “Time Capsule" tab. It should only ask you once and then never again - because you had checked "Remember password in keychain".
    If you have made any changes then click "Update".
    Let us know if this resolves your issue.
    Cheers!

  • AppleScript: Waiting for a user to enter user name and password

    I'm currently working on an AppleScript designed to automate binding a computer to Active Directory and another script to install a login certificate. While you can create a UNIX shell script for the Active Directory binding, I found that you have to have your user name and password in the script itself and this system will be deployed by multiple people.
    So instead I'm doing an GUI Automation AppleScript of Directory Utility. What I'd like to do is have the script to wait for the admin user (who will be remoting in by ARD) to enter their Network user and password, click okay and then continue the script to quit the program and then run a self-destruct (which I'd also appreciate any advice about doing in AppleScript)
    Here's the script so far, which I've set up successfully:
    activate application "Directory Utility"
    tell application "System Events"
      click text field 1 of row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of group 1 of group 1 of window "Directory Utility" of application process "Directory Utility"
      click button 1 of group 1 of group 1 of window "Directory Utility" of application process "Directory Utility"
      click text field 2 of sheet 1 of window "Directory Utility" of application process "Directory Utility"
      keystroke "EXAMPLE.COMPANY.com"
      click UI element 3 of sheet 1 of window "Directory Utility" of application process "Directory Utility"

    <<WAIT LINE HERE FOR NETWORK ADMIN AND AND PASS, THEN USER WILL CLICK OKAY, THEN CONTINUE SCRIPT>>
    <<QUIT ACTIVE DIRECTORY>>
    <<SELF-DESTRUCT>>
    end tell
    It isn't a real command prompt like if you're changing System Preferences or something. It's a specialized prompt specifically for Directory Utility. However, I do need to know how to make AppleScript wait for a password for a standard Password Prompt for adding a certificate to the login keychain through Keychain Access. I've also done pretty much the same thing as above for that script.
    Any tips would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Yeah, I know GUI Scripting is not the best way, but I couldn't find a successful variable system for the following script. The other issue is that I'd prefer to send this by ARD and have ARD ask for a User Name and Password, but I've found there's no way to do that. Then again, I can't send the AppleScript purely remotely either.
    What I mean by self-destruct is simply I only want the Active Directory binding script to run once upon login to the primary admin user and then delete itself so it doesn't get run again. The login certificate script I want to run once on each new user who logs in (so I'll likely be putting it in the "User Template") and then delete itself so it doesn't run the next time they log in. I can't figure out any way to hit those buttons through a shell script.
    Here's the original UNIX shell script: (This is what I'm using temporarily until I figure out a solution that doesn't require my user name and password to be embedded)
    #! /bin/bash
    MACNAME=$(scutil --get ComputerName)
    dsconfigad -add "CORP.DOMAIN.NET" \
    -username USER \
    -password PASS \
    -computer $MACNAME \
    -mobile disable \
    -mobileconfirm disable \
    -localhome enable \
    -useuncpath enable \
    -shell /bin/bash \
    -ou OU=Macs,CN=Computers,DC=corp,DC=DOMAIN,DC=net \
    -force \
    -localpassword "PASSWORD" \
    -groups "GROUPS"
    And here is the Certificate Installation AppleScript
    activate application "Keychain Access"
    tell application "Finder" to open POSIX file "/FolderName/Certificate.crt"
    delay (3)
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Keychain Access"
      click button "Add" of window "Add Certificates"
      click button "Always Trust" of group 3 of sheet 1 of window "Keychain Access"
    end tell
    Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it. This is a rather new field for me and most of my knowledge comes from Google Searches and about a billion tabs trying to find answers.

  • Problems with VLM Import Utility

    Hello!
    We I are using NI Volume License Manager 3.0 together with NI Volume License Manager Import Utility for importing users data.
    The problem is that we can't import .xml data into VLM when the user types his name into Full Name field and his name contains characters like ČŠĆŽĐ čšćžđ. These characters are not correctly written into .xml file with VLM Import Utility and we have to manually replace them with Microsoft Expression Web before we can load .xml file into VLM server.
    Do you have better solution? Is there some new version of NI Volume License Manager Import Utility that correctly handles non English characters?
    Thank you

  • Error when Publishing to Knowledge Center

    I have installed UPK and Knowledge Center version 12.1.0. I receive an error when trying to publish to the Knowledge Center. The activity log reads "Communication with a Knowledge Center server failed. Error:An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party. See the inner FaultException for the fault code and detail."
    Here are some details of the situation:
    I am able to view the knowledge center site with no issues. After some research I saw that a time difference between the server and client can be an issue. However my server and client are on the same machine. The only time I see this error is when I am trying to publish to the knowledge center. I installed the client on another machine and tried it again but received the same error.
    I have attached the activity log as reference.
    Any suggestions?

    It could be multiple causes.
    Solution 1:
    The server timezone and client timezone are the same, but there is 5 minutes difference in the system clock.
    Confirm that the client workstation has the correct system date and time including the timezone for daylight savings setting.
    This error has been seen when the server and clients are not synchronized within 5 minutes.
    Change the time on the workstation to synchronize with the server time.
    Solution 2:
    Confirm that the database connection string (source, user and password) have not changed or expired. To decrypt the file, please follow steps in KM solution:
    Oracle Support Document 1614824.1 (UPK Client: An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party. See the inner FaultException for the fault code and detail.” ) can be found at:
    https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?id=1614824.1
    I. Confirm that the connection string is valid after decryption
    II. Modify web.config if password has changed or expired
    III. Save web.config
    IV. Re-encrypt the web.config as Administrator using re-encrypt command

  • How can i use exisitng user data(Id, password) for user mapping

    Hi All,
    For User mapping , we can import user mapping data for many users from user administration. and for each user
    we can maintain mapping data in the standard format.
    eg:
    [User]
    uid=user2
    $usermapping$:BCE:user=ext_user2
    $usermapping$:BCE:mappedpassword=password
    i am clear till this point.
    this all works if we know the userid and passowrd on the system 'BCE'.the passwords on the system 'BCE', are encrypted . so there is no chance for me to know the passwords.
    so how can i use the existed userid/passowrd on the system 'BCE' for the mapped user and mapped password on the portal while doing usermapping.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Lakshmi

    Hi,
    I think this should work.
    1. Setup SSO with SAP logon tickets first. How to do this is described many places, e.g. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d3/41c8ecb31d11d5993800508b6b8b11/content.htm
    This SSO will not work at first, because the username is different in the back-end system. So what you need to do is to get the back-end username into the ticket (don't need a password because that is done by the SAP logon ticket)
    2. Create a portal component which uses the usermanagement API to create a usermapping which only consists of the username and a blank password. You can do this manually I think if you have no reference system defined.
    IUserMappingService umap =(IUserMappingService)PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IUserMappingService.KEY);
    //this is the currently logged in user. You might another user
    IUserContext user = request.getUser();
    //Get the existing data (think it can be null)
    IUserMappingData userMapping=umap.getMappingData(systemAlias, user);
    HashMap map = new HashMap();
                             map.put(IUserMappingService.UMAP_KEY_USER, backEndUserName);
    //add blank password               map.put(IUserMappingService.UMAP_KEY_PASSWORD, "");
    //store the values                    userMapping.storeLogonData(map);
    Voila, this should allow you to do SSO using SAP logon tickets, but with another name that you use against the portal. I am uncertain if this will work if you have multiple usermappings in the sap logon ticket
    PS since the sap logon ticket is issued at logon time, you need to relogon to get the changes done by the code

  • Office 365 Web Portal - We don't recognize this user ID or password

    We are currently in the process of rolling out Office 365 in our organisation. This deployment is to 80-90 users, for up to 10 users i am having the following issue.
    Users appear to be successfully syncing from our AD to the O365 cloud using DirSync. I have verified this by changing an attribute of an AD user and
    performing a sync and confirmed the changed attribute is shown in the O365 administrative portal.
    When attempting to activate the Office suite after installation the activation fails stating that the username or password is incorrect. When this
    user attempts to login to the online portal at portal.office.com the user receives a "We don't recognize this user ID or password". I have confirmed that the user id and password are correct and that the user is listed in the admin portal and has
    the relevant subscription assigned to them.
    From within the O365 admin portal (where i am a global administrator) i have blocked this user from being allowed to sign in or access services within
    the user’s settings screen. On attempting to sign in with this user on the O365 portal it informs me that the user is blocked and I need to contact an administrator. This is what I’d expect, to me this confirms that the user I am manipulating in the O365 portal
    is correct,  but after allowing sign in once again on the user’s settings page I receive the same “We don’t recognize this user ID or password” error message.
    Is this something anyone else has come across and successfully resolved in the past? If more detail is required to assist let
    me know.

    Hi,
    Thanks for sharing the steps here. And good to see that it works for you, at least for one affected user for now. 
    If you have any follow-up questions about this, I would suggest you to post in the dedicated forum of
    Office 365 Community, where you can get more experienced responses. Current forum only focuses on questions and feedback for Microsoft Office client, there is not so much about
    Office 365 admin/host/integration aspects here:
    http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/default.aspx
    The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
