Making VM accessible over the web
A user wants to run their VM suite of Oracle BI products (Oracle Business Intelligence web reports - OBI EE) independent of a laptop and VM Player, so in essence they want to run it over the web, hosted as if it was a BI server.
Is it possible for them to stick this on an apps server (or whatever) and expose the reports (Bi Server) over the web so they can run from IE/T-Bird? I'm not an expert in this area and would appreciate some advice.

They could either look at hosting it at a cloud provider like Amazon's EC2 environment, or within their own data centre. It is identical to hosting a physical instance of the same product, so you'd follow the same process.

Make WSUS accessible over the web
We're in the process of deploying WSUS on Windows 2012 R2 in our environment and I have a question regarding access over the web... I would like to provide clients with the ability to access the update server regardless of being connected to
the company internal network. I see that the standard GPO settings call for following, and in our lab it is working fine. One the same internal network.
Computer Configuration, Policies, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Windows Update
Specify intranet Microsoft update service location
Set the intranet update service for detection updates:
http://serverhostname:5830
Set the intranet statistics server: http://serverhostname:5830
So, If I wanted to change this to HTTPS and make it accessible over the web, based on my experience with Windows Server the steps would look something like this:
1. Create Internal and external DNS record that will resolve the internal IP address of the WSUS server and the External IP address of the WSUS server. wsus.domain.com for example.
2. Purchase a Godaddy or competing certificate from a public store and install it for the default site in IIS. Configure HTTPS bindings to answer on port 5830.
3. Configure GPO mentioned above to utilize
https://wsus.domain.com:5830
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seems pretty straight forward.. However I am wondering if this configuration is supported, recommended, or if anyone else out there has it configured in this way? Our deployment will service approximately 300 workstations from a single installation at our
datacenter. Any insight or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Actually it's port 8530.

That part is, yes. :)

It's not supported. It's not recommended, as described, although you're well on your way. And, the real kicker.. strictly speaking, it's not licensed for use in that manner. Let me e'splain why.
The licensing for WSUS restricts its use to only clients that are licensed to the entity operating the WSUS server. As such client identity is a key component of strict licensing compliance.
While Server-Side SSL certainly ensures the client only connects to an authorized server, it does not identify the client, nor restrict the client by known identity, and it wouldn't even prevent an unauthorized client from accessing that server -- all that's
needed is a copy of the CER. So there's that, which is probably not a deal killer, even considering the strictest interpretation of the licensing, because the risk is fairly low, and MS really isn't going to chase you down because you *might* be capable of
offering services to unlicensed client systems.
Here's the real risk: Access to the SSL certificate would also permit a rogue downstream server to dump your complete collection of updates, groups, and approvals to itself, effectively giving the operator of that rogue server information about what security
updates are approved, and when they were approved, but also which updates are NOT approved -- which offers up some sensitive information about existing vulnerabilities in those workstations. In effect, security of the public certificate becomes paramount.
More significantly, someone using the API can dig out even more sensitive information about client computers, actual installations, etc. without even setting up a WSUS server, all they need is a working API installation (which can be done on any desktop
operating system).
SSL is definitely the minimum requirement for this type of deployment, but in conjunction with making the client services available via SSL, you'll also want to BLOCK access to /DssAuthWebService, /ServerSyncWebService, and /ApiRemoting30 via the firewall.
Blocking /ApiRemoting30 is fairly straightforward as it requires an authenticated connection anyway, so mostly that's a matter of properly securing the server logons, but downstream server sync is anonymous by default, so you'll want to configure required
authentication for downstream servers. You won't have any, of course, but that will also preclude the possibility of any. Configuring DSS Authentication is discussed in the WSUS Deployment Guide in TechNet.
Having said all of that, the conventional way in which WSUS services have been made available to Internet-based clients is via VPN using a replica server without a content store. VPN-based clients get approvals from the replica WSUS server, but then download
content direct from Microsoft. Client installs updates when downloads are complete.
VPN is a headache for a lot of orgs, though, and it requires active participation on the part of the computer user, which sometimes impedes successful deployment of updates in a timely manner.
The ideal methodology, but also a PITA to set up, would be to access that WSUS server via an IPSec-encrypted Direct Access connection. This eliminates the end-user from the process, and ensures client identity through IPSec/DA authentication.

Export Release Build Flash Builder 4.5 fails to load over the web.
Exported Release Build Application fails to load over the web. You can reproduce using the following steps:
1. Create New Flex Project in Trial Flash Builder 4.5.
2. Use the default Flex 4.5 sdk.
3. Configure as a web application.
3. Place the following MXML code in the main application file:
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<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/mx"
minWidth = "955"
minHeight = "600">
<fx:Declarations>
<!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
</fx:Declarations>
<s:TextArea text = "Hello World!" width = "100%" height = "100%">
</s:TextArea>
</s:Application>
3. Save the main application file and Export Release Build to bin-release.
4. Place all files in bin-release on IIS web server in a web accessible location.
5. Go to the web accessible location in any browser with newest flash player and view the application's html page.
Actual Results:
Flash movie appears blank. Context menu shows Movie Not Loaded. Network traffic shows application main swf downloaded. Framework dependent swfs not downloaded.
Expected Results:
Movie loads. Hello World! appears in text box. Context menu does not show Movie Not Loaded. Framework dependent swfs downloaded.
Workaround (if any):
Deploy on an Apache web server.
The tests were run on IIS 7.x (7.0 for one, and 7.5)
Flex application was built using Flex 4.5.0 SDK pre-bundled release (built-in flex 4.5 with Flash Builder 4.5 trial) on Mac OS X 10.6.7 (10J869)
Flash Player 10.3.181.14
Example failing website:
http://staging.ibenergy.com/Test.html
Any idea as to why my exported release build fails? Any help would be appreciated.Just tried this out on an IIS server with Flash player 10.3.181.14 - it worked.
Are you using the release version of Flash Builder 4.5 with the release version of Flex SDK (not a prior SDK build)?
The URL you mentioned gives me a 403 forbidden error.

Displaying report in .pdf format while Running oracle reports over the web
I am running a report over the web via IE. I am suing .pdf
format as the file type. The problem I am facing is that the
report comes out with a blank in acrobat reader if there are
just one or two records - i.e less thatn one pagefull. THe
reports displays output only when there ar more than one
pagefull of records.
Any explanation for this bezarre behavior and any suggestions?
I will very much appreciate your help.

Prasad.in R12 I found 2 choice
1) when submitting requests (if available) you can set the output format by using the Options button (upon sompletion section):
layout --> format --> select format you need (RTF/HTML/EXCEL/PDF)
2) in the request form (view->request) selecr the report you want to reprint in the Tools menu select print/republish, in the html page that pop up select output format you want, number of copies =1 submit

update to IOS 6 has been a nightmare. Facebook would allow me to save pictures unless I granted access to my foto album. Does this mean my pictures are going be planted all over the web? The safari keeps crashing and loading is slow. Most infuriating is that YouTube was deleted from my entertainment apps and I now have to pay for it if I want it back!! This is a bloody disgrace.
Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin. -

nullMagoo is talking about a patch 23, and you are on 11. Maybe that's the difference?
You can also try to upgrade just the Oracle 8 client (I assume Developer 2000 uses the 8 client). We did that to resolve some issues for Developer 6i on a 9i database.
You need to get Oracle8 8.0.6.3.8 patch. -

How do I run an applicatio​n over the web?
Hi All,
I have an application that needs to run over the web through browser access. I understand that there are couple of options available for this.
Can someone provide some guidelines and a brief 'How to' on doing this.
My application is already developed through LabVIEW 8.6.
Regards.Hi, for controlling a VI through the browser, you need to use G Web servers. Its fairly easy if you are going for simple control and all. You can incorporate all kinds of other options as well. You will need to download the internet tool kit though. A trial version is available here and here are a few links to get you started.
http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/209053
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3534
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7503
If you only need VI access and control via browser, the process is very straight forward and you dont need to go through the SMTP and FTP stuff. Search LabVIEW help with keywords "controlling remotely" or "controlling vis" will give you a much more step by step explanation.
Other wise there are remote panels, way much easier to use but require that the client should have labview installed.

Deploying existing application (forms and reports) over the web
Hi I do have the following environment:
1) Oracle 8.1.6.0.0 on HP-UX.
2) Application written using oracle forms6i and reports6i on NT (Client-Server environment)
I am looking to deploy this existing application over the web using 9iAS, sure I don't want to rewrite my application. I did that in the past using OAS 4.0.8 and forms server and reports server.
1)Does 9iAS support that, which one should I install the standard or the enterprise.
2)Do I still need forms server and reports server.
I stopped using the OAS because it had problems and the performance was not that good, I found CITRIX and Tarantella do better, performance wise.
3)Does 9iAS has improved that.
Any feedback regading these many questions is highly appreciated
Thanks
KhaledSounds like the ideal 9i As environment (although you might want to consider either upgrading or patching the database - 8.1.6.0.0 does have patches)
You'd be pleasantly surprised with the performance and stability improvements of 9iAS over OAS.
Deploying reports & forms over the web (pure web access, not terminal services like citrix) require some form of web server, reports server and forms server. I believe that 9i AS is totally compatible with the reports and forms developed in 6i tools, so there should be no rewrite at all.
If you have the time, strongly recommend you check it out. -
