From http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/ldap/models/jndi.html ...
As a result of federation, the names that you supply to the JNDI's context methods can span multiple namespaces. These are called composite names. When using the JNDI to access an LDAP service, you should be aware that the forward slash character ("/") in a string name has special meaning to the JNDI. If the LDAP entry's name contains this character, then you need to escape it (using the backslash character ("\")). For example, an LDAP entry with the name "cn=O/R" must be presented as the string "cn=O\\/R" to the JNDI context methods. See the What's in a Name? lesson for details.

Key with a slash character

Hello,
In my tests I see that when I add a key component that contains a slash character "/", Oracle NoSQL encodes it as "%2F".
For example:
ArrayList<String> majorComponents = new ArrayList<String>();
majorComponents.add("forums.oracle.com/community");
Key myKey = Key.createKey(majorComponents);
System.out.println(myKey.toString());
this prints:
forums.oracle%2Fcommunity
I tried to URLDecode.decode the string before I add it to the majorComponents but it doesn't work.
Therefore, my question is if there is a way to have a key that contains slash characters. Please have in mind that I would prefer not to split the string into multiple components every time a slash character occurs in the string.
Thank you very much in advance,
Apostolos Giannakidis

Hi,
All Unicode characters are allowed in a key component, including slashes. Your code to create the key is correct, and the key component does contain a slash. The slash is escaped by the Key.toString method for two reasons: 1) to delineate key components, 2) to provide a URI syntax. If you call Key.getMajorPath and look at the component, you'll see the un-escaped slash. The Key.toString javadoc contains complete documentation of the string format.

Use the default parser.
By default, WebLogic Server is configured to use the default parser and transformer to parse and transform XML documents. The default parser and transformer are those included in the JDK 5.0.
The built-in WebLogic Server DOM factory implementation class is com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl.
The DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance method returns the built-in parser.
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

OD, LDAP and DNS

I am new to LDAP and I believe I have everything setup correctly on the server (everything under Open Directory in SA says "Running", logs don't show any errors). However, I can not access the LDAP server from a client machine using Directory Access. I suspect that client machines still can not "see" my LDAP server.
I believe the issue may be with DNS and I am trying to understand the interaction between DNS and OD, etc. First off, I do not have DNS turned on for my Mac OS X Server since my ISP has always hosted our DNS. Is this a problem? Do I need DNS activated on the same server that I am running this LDAP server? I have tried entering the IP and DNS name on the client server using Directory Access and neither worked.

The requirement is that references using your server's Fully Qualified Domain Name look up to its IP Address and its IP Address looks up to its Fully Qualified Domain Name. If your ISP does that for you, and does it correctly, Merry Christmas!
All others must set up their own tiny DNS service to do the lookups. If you are behind an NAT firewall, you can Make Up whatever names you like and look them up locally, because they are invisible from the Internet.
Remember that each workstation must have the address of the DNS available to it. It needs to be configured in the TCP/IP setup or dispensed via DHCP. If you use your own DNS (highly recommended) you must also dispense or configure the next upstream DNS (your ISP's DNS Address).
"An Open Directory master requires properly configured DNS so it can provide single sign-on Kerberos authentication.
Make sure DNS service is configured to resolve fully qualified DNS names and provide corresponding reverse lookups.
DNS must resolve the fully qualified DNS name and provide reverse lookups for the Open Directory master server, all replica servers, and other servers that are members of the Kerberos realm.
You can use the Lookup pane of Network Utility (in /Applications/Utilities/) to do a DNS lookup of a server's DNS name and a reverse lookup of the server's IP address.
For instructions on setting up DNS service, browse Network Services Overview."

10.6.6 Server Combo Update Crashes LDAP and Kerberos Services

Just updated apple server from 10.6.4 to 10.6.6 with combo server overnight.
Everything was working fine under 10.6.4
All users can no longer authenticate to server via mail or ldap logins
LDAP and Kerberos Services stopped.
Will downgrade from an open directory master to standalone then back to master again and post status...

I think there is something with LDAP on 10.6.6
I was forced to make clean install in combo from 10.6.0 to 10.6.6 and today LDAP crashed.
It seems to be an issue on ldap ACL.

Problem with slash character in CONTAINS queries

Hi there,
i've got a problem with a CONTAINS query using Oracle Text.
The following query works fine:
select col1 from my_table_text where contains(text,'%02%')>0;
When i'm trying the query
select col1 from my_table_text where contains(text,'%02/%')>0;
the following error occurs:
ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50937: query too complex
I didn't find anywhere that the slash has a special meaning (escape character or something else). This occurs only when the slash character is positioned immediately after or before the % operator. The search string '%0/2%' works.
Oracle version: 9.2.0.1.0
OS: Solaris 8 SPARC
Maybe someone can help me.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I think you want to search for all words having '02/'.
Am I right? In that case try using '02//'
Yes. '/' means escape character. So when it finds '/%' it tries to escape '%'.
Hope this helps.

Anupama

MAC OS and LDAP and Samba Server

How can I make my Mac OS authenticate against LDAP and automatically map shared by a Samba server folders? (samba domain)? The idea is that any person who is registered in the database of LDAP can log into any Mac machine and automatically access the folders stored on the Samba server.

Are you using TopLink 11g or TopLink Essentials?
You seem to be wanting to use TopLink 11g, but you have the provider set to Essentials in your persistence.xml.
<provider>oracle.toplink.essentials.PersistenceProvider</provider>
Change this to,
<provider>oracle.toplink.PersistenceProvider</provider>
The sessions-xml properties are only supported with TopLink 11g.
Note that currently in 11g when using a sessions-xml it must contain a project xml that completely defines the mappings. It will not merge with annotations nor defaults.

LDAP and OID

FYI: I am new to Oracle (<1 month), and new to APEX (<3 weeks) so forgive me if I am asking the obvious.
I would like to have APEX authenticate against LDAP (active directory), and went about trying to set that up. Got all AD settings from our sys admin, and then tried them in the LDAP test tool. I kept getting " Authentication failed!" no matter what I did. Due to the detailed nature of that error message, I started trying to track down every possible avenue so I talked to one of our DBA's about DBMS_LDAP.SIMPLE_BIND_S. The answer I got back was that we don't have access to it because it is part of OIN which we would have to pay outrageous amounts of money for if we wanted to use it. Not likely to happen, so I was hoping that there was another way to authenticate APEX via LDAP.
Any suggestions would be most helpful.

John - DBMS_LDAP is not part of OID so you can use it as part of your existing database product installation. Search this forum for LDAP and AD and you'll find lots of discussions about what you are trying to do.
Also, just to clarify, you're not trying to authenticate Application Express using AD, you'll be authenticating users to your application (essentially a PL/SQL application in the database) using account information stored in AD. The authentication code that gets executed will belong to your application.

LDAP and SAP integration

Hi,
As a part of a project requirement, we are trying to integrate Solution manager with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol).
Using the directory service, we are trying to synchronize the CUA (Central user administration within Solution manager) with Active directory of LDAP so that we can maintain the User data centrally from a single point in LDAP.
Problem description:
Currently, Client has implemented the LDAP and CUA integration and when a new user is added in LDAP, it is automatically getting copied in all SAP systems and at real time, when the useru2019s u201CLASTNAMEu201D field is updated in LDAP, it is automatically getting synchronized in all SAP systems.
But, If any attribute other than u201CLASTNAMEu201D is changed (i.e. The expiry /validity date of the User in LDAP, GLTGB in SAP), then the field value is not getting synchronized in the SAP Central User Adm.
Our Findings:
We have checked the configurations and imported mappings in SAP Solution Manager and everything looks fine. We have debugged the standard program RSLDAPSYNC_USER extensively and found out that an RFC call to function module LDAPRFC_SEARCH is not returning the expected values.
Thanks
Deb

Hi Deb,
It would be really nice if you can elaborate on the configurations that need to be done as part of this integration. I hope, you have been successfull by now.
Actually, I too need to perform the same as part of a project.
Thanks in advance.

To delete first and last character of a string???

Hi Everybody !!!
Do you know a method that can permit to delete in a string the first and the last character?
For instance I have in my string this word : [the word]
I would like to delete the '[' and the ']' character.
Is exist a method that permit to delete this character?
Thanks !!!

Look at the substring method of the String class.
Note that since string is immutable, you'll need to assign the results of substring to a variable (could be the same as the original or different).

Hello, Identity manager fail to add entries in the LDAP and database table

Hello,
Well I installed identity manager 7 in a windows 2003 advanced server.
I I appended an NT server resource, a Mysql table, a solaris server resource and an ldap server resource.
I created the roles for these resources and then I assigned them to an account that I created for testing purposes.
After the aprooval, in the solaris machine, the user has been added in the user database but no home directory has been created as I didn't set the apropriate flag to true.
I the windows resource everything worked very smooth and with no problem.
In the ldap and mysql table resources I recieved a failure having error message null. and from a sniffing that I did for investigation I never saw a sigle packed arrive to the mysql server or to the directory server from the idm server.
Any ideas or suggestions on what to do ?

Well the problem with the directory server just solved.
But the problem with mysql remains.
The first thing that I do when I add a resource is to test the connection.
The problem with the LDAP is that the dn was not present in the directory server. They gave me an ou that didn't exist.
