Multiple Login Sessions - Catalog Disappeared

Hi All,
Today during a training session, we had an unusual occurrence. Users were asked to login using the same User ID. Half of the class was able to view the link for the Catalog. The other half was not, but could access dashboards under "Recent." Any idea where we can control the number of same user ID login sessions? We are not using OAM, which is what comes up in every google search. Please advise.

Open the Repository in Online Mode and there u go to Manage-Sessions now u can see all the sessions.
Mark as correct if it is helpful.
Thanks.

Logging off multiple login sessions of the same user

Hi,
When I login to solaris through a telnet session and type "who", I see that many of my previous terminal login sessions from the same ip address are still open.
Although only one telnet login session is established curretly, I see multiple previous logins.
How can I kill all the previous login sessions I made from the same IP address as the current one?
Thanks,
Rommel Sharma.

Try this:
kill -1 `ps -fu username | awk '{ print $2 }'`
This will kill all the user sessions, including the one you ran it from. It's a bit extreme, but simple. :-)

How open multiple responsibilities in the same user login session in R12 ?

Dear All,
Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?
Thanks..
Edited by: G-oracle on Sep 18, 2011 11:22 AM

Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?What do you mean by open multiple responsibilities in the same session? You can only see the menu of one responsibility at a time, so how to do you expect the application to let you see multiple responsibilities/menus in one session?
You could open another session and this way you can access more than one responsibility at the same time.
Thanks,

Sharing HTTP session on multiple logins

If two users login into an application with same credentials and from different browsers can i use same http session to handle both the clients.
My objective is how many ever users login with same credentials we use same session to handle them.
I do not want to stop multiple login with same credentials.

Associate the data with the logged in user instead of the session then.

How to prevent multiple logins by using HttpBindingListener

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how do i actually use session to prevent multiple login from different machine? From my understanding, i need to use HttpBindingListener to valueBound and valueUnbound when user tries to login, but i encounter a problem is my session is always overwritten since i use setAttribute() method in servlet.
For instance i use username(aaa & bbb) to login in two different machine, my login is always overwritten if i use username bbb to login after username aaa. i know it is because setAttribute() method overwrite existing session data, so i would like to know what other method should i use to achieve what i want, tks.

Hi,
This is the logic for session :
Connect to db for verification, once verified, system return a UserBean and this UserBean will be set in ClientSecurityEngine
When this particular user has been successfully verified, a new session will be created
if(success)
    session = request.getSession();
    User user;
    synchronized(session)
    user = (User) session.getAttribute("user");
    if(user == null)
       user = new User(ClientSecurityEngine.getInstance().getUserBean().getUsername());
       session.setAttribute("user", user);
/* User class */
public class User implements HttpSessionBindingListener {
    private static Map<String, HttpSession> logins = Collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap<String, HttpSession>());
    private String username;
    public User(String username) {
        this.username = username;
    public String getUsername() {
        return username;
    @Override
    public void valueBound(HttpSessionBindingEvent event) {
        if (logins.containsKey(getUsername())) {
            HttpSession session = logins.remove(getUsername());
            if (session != null) {
                session.invalidate();
            logins.put(getUsername(), event.getSession());
        } else {
            logins.put(getUsername(), event.getSession());
    @Override
    public void valueUnbound(HttpSessionBindingEvent event) {
        logins.remove(getUsername());

Multiple Logins - Same Browser Cookie Problems??

Is there any Issues in which a User uses Tabs to Login (LDAP Authentication)?
I have only a Cookie Name in the Cookie Attributes in Authentication Setup.
I had multiple browsers opened and signed on an application. A :tx- row lock contention was evident..
INSERT INTO WWV_FLOW_DATA ( FLOW_INSTANCE, ITEM_ID, ITEM_VALUE ) VALUES ( :B4 , :B3 , :B2 ||':'||:B1 ||':0:0')
Can someone explain what happened here, and does multiple logins have to be prevented?
Should I add a Cookie Path and Domain to prevent this?
Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
I need a more detailed scenario to follow. I'm not even sure you are saying that something did not work properly.
FYI, cookies have no presence in session state.

Multiple View sessions, same PC?

View 6.0.1, Client 3.3.0
Can I have multiple View sessions from the same PC? In other words
Launch the Horizon View client, login, and access a desktop
Launch the Horizon View client again, login as a different user, and access a different desktop
Repeat until I have many session open at once
The reason I ask is we are migrating from Exchange to Gmail. Google provides a utility called GAMME that in a larger environment can be run from multiple machines with each machine migrating one portion of the alphabet. Rather than using 10 physical machines I would rather use 10 View desktops. This will work slick if from my real PC I can access all 10 view desktops. I will be using a different login account to access each desktop.

Have not tried yet. I did not want to go through the time setting up a separate non-persistent desktop pool if I could not login to more than one desktop at the same time. Now that I know it will work, I will run with it. Thanks for the help

Multiple user sessions for ADF application

Hi All,
We have a ADF application with 3-4 pages starting with a login screen.
Assume we have two users, user1 and user2. In same system but different browser windows, when both users are logging in, only user2 's session is active. Though user1 logged in first and is able to perform transactions, the moment user2 logs in, user1's session is being over-written by user2 (user1's window now displays user2's information). I have observed the URL of user1 window which now changes to user2's URL (_adf.ctrl-state parameter of user2 is displayed in user1 browser)
How do we overcome this?? We have a requirement to be able to open multiple user sessions.
We are using JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 and browsers being used are IE 8, IE9 and chrome.
Thanks,
Deepti

Hi,
Continuation to my above question
I am using these two statements in my code..
ExternalContext ectx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
HttpSession httpSession = (HttpSession)ectx.getSession(true);
On any event in Window1, I gues it is getting the context and session of window2(this being the latest)..
Shouldnt it return the context and session of the current window instead of the latest window???
This problem is well explained here
internet explorer 8 - How to avoid session sharing provided by IE8 programmatically in Java EE application? - Stack Over…
I want to know.. what is the best way to handle this in ADF... We are using managed beans with request scope and using HttpSession to store few values like user Id.

Displaying login sessions on workstations using Command Prompt

Hi there,
Anyone know of a command similar to wmic.exe /node:IP-or-HostName ComputerSystem Get UserName in a Command Prompt which displays remote login sessions on a workstation rather than the console login sessions that use local accounts set up
on workstations.
Thanks,
RocknRollTim
P.S. I was redirected by a couple of forum users off the Microsoft Community Forum.

Hi Ben Lavender,
Thank you for responding to my forum thread again and thank you for making the correction on the WMIC command, I tried both sets of commands for WMIC and found that the WMIC command in your previous post was invalid whereas the one you posted last was correct
and was showing results, however there a few questions I would like to ask with regards to the WMIC command you posted last. How far back does the command go? When there are no dates and times next to account entries, does this mean that users have never logged
on to that machine or does this mean that the remote system has never retained this information in it's registry? I remember doing an error check on the machine I tested this command on as it was having performance problems and was developing a bad sector
on the disk at the time, would this cause the information not to display as expected? Also I configure out the date and time entry for each account entry but what does the information after the decimal point mean? Does it represent milliseconds for the time
element? Lastly I tried running the psloggedon app from the psloggedon suite on my Windows 7 x64 machine and now when I come to run it, it appears for a split second and then disappears, the same also happens for all the other apps from the psloggedon suite
after agreeing to license agreement for each app. I decided to do some research to confirm what are the system requirements to run the apps from this suite and the website says that it's only compatible with systems that have Windows XP and higher and/or Windows
Server 2003 and higher which I thought should have worked, I then decided to run the apps as Run As Administrator and they did the same thing as before, I also changed the compatibility settings of each app to run as Windows XP Service Pack 3 but again they
all did the same thing as before, does this mean that the suite of apps aren't compatible with 64-bit systems and only work with 32-bit systems?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim

Multiple Login in ATG on multiple server instances.

Hi,
I'm facing a issue with multiple logins in my web application. The scenario is explained below:
1. I login from one browser (IE) and add an item to cart. Then I navigate to cart page. I logout.
2. I login from another browser (Chrome) and add another item to cart. Now I have two items in my cart. I'm still logged in.
3. I login to IE again and it throws error saying ConcurrentUpadteException.
This is very obvious.
1. In first step the profile's order is picked up from repository and updates it version to '2' (suppose). This change is there still in the cache and not persisted in the DB. I logout. The order will get persisted only after 5 minutes, due to cache configuration.
2. Next in step 2 we get the same order from the repository and makes its version number to '2' also. I'm still logged in.
3. Now in step 3 when the order is again picked up from repository and updates the order version to '2'. Hence the ConcurrentUpdateException.
This is happening because I have multiple sever instances and the request can be handled by any of the server instance. Had there been only one server instance it would have only one cache, and order will be picked up from the same cache every time.
If I can invalidate the sessions across all the server instances I can resolve this issue. The problem is how can I do this. Is this possible by a making changes in the program or by changing any configuration.
Please give me suggestions on how to take it up from here.

Not sure what is the real issue you are facing. For resolving the concurrentUpdateException in order, ATG is suggesting some steps to follow while updating the order.
Check the below solution, you need to have a support id to access this article.
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&id=1362812.1
Regarding your second question, for invalidating the cache for multiple instances, ATG provides different Caching Modes, you may check the documentation.

Unable to open same form with Multiple logins on Windows IE8

Hello All,
We recently upgraded our instance from Jinitiator to Java Plugin Version 1.6 U18.
After that we are unable to open same form from different logins on a same windows machine.
the following is scenario.
1) Login as X user into EBS and open a sales order form. -- Every thing is fine.
2) On the same machine in another browser window, login as X user again and open Sales order form. --- No issue here also,
3) On the same machine in another browser window(Keeping the above forms open), login as Y user and open sales order form ---> Form opened from Y user is fine, but, both forms of X user are exiting Oracle applications with message" Your logon session become invalid. Exiting Oracle applications".
we have encountered issues with opening an attachment from a form, and it is resolved by Unchecking "Enable the next generation java plugin" option in Java control panal --> Advanced -> Java plugin. This workaround done according to note: 290807.1
But the multiple login issue is not resolved.
THis isssue is in our PROD and we are loosing customers. Please Advice ASAP.
THanks.
Rama Krishna N K J

Hi Rama;
It was working before? If yes what have you been changed on your system?(patch etc) You have same error on IE 7 or firefox? Did you check apache log file for more details? You have any FRM error code?
Please check those settings on your IE8:
1 - Go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Select Sites > click on button "Sites": add the url of ebs.
2 - Go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Select Sites > Custom Level > Disabled XSS filter.

Guest Wlan multiple login with Cisco Identity Services Engine

Dear all,
I have been looking for some details with regards to multiple logins on Guest WLAN.
Currently my customer is facing the following problem
When a Guest Wlan user logs in, the same user could login again on the same time frame,
in other words guest Wlan user can login multiple times.
is this intentional or a bug on the ISE
product name : L-ISE-BSE-250=
any advice or any article related to this would really appreciate it
thanks in advance
Lnacellot

Ok, Ranjane you took me back to 1900BC, had to dig the case up for you.
to be clear this is what customer wants
a guest user concurrently login from two devices at the same time
What he wants is: any given time Guest user should be only able to login once (Ex if you login to your PC and leave it logged on, then go to a another PC with same user you would be able to login – this need to be limited)
So under the User login Policy this should be able to limit to one login
you may want to check the concurrent session limit on the WLC: It is under Security > AAA > User Login Policies. There is a global number, that will limit the concurrent logins from a single user name.
hope it was useful

lancellot

Multiple Logins of single user

How do we prevent a single user from multiple logins on IDM.
If the user has already logged-in, IDM should prevent the same user when tries to login again.
Thanks.

This is really difficult to implement. The app server takes care of most of this session behaviour and we can have mulitple IDM instances in a setup which makes this really difficult.
The other thing is how would you detect a second login? Does the second login come from the same IP or different IP? There are possible problems with all these scenarios.
It is an oustanding enhancement to give you this option but it will not come soon.

MULTIPLE LOGIN WITH SAME USER ID

Hi,
As per my understanding, multiple login to the portal with the same user id and password is allowed.
Now,
1. Is it possible to disbale this in the portal so that user can login to the portal only once?
2. Is it possible to allow specified no of logins with the same user id?
Any response is highly appreciated.
regards,
Chandra

What you're trying to do just doesn't work that well with any web application, let alone NW. There are various problems with trying to restrict the number of sign ons:
If a user signs into the portal and then walks away, they are unable to sign in again from another workstation. What if they want to give a demo to a user elsewhere in the company while they're still signed in at their desk? This is really just a user-issue, but an annoying one that will almost certainly drive certain users nuts.
What if the user's web browser crashes (an unfortunately common occurence). They can't sign in again until their session times out. Either that, or they call the portal admin to clear out their session (how? I don't know). The portal admin probably has better things to do than cleaning up orphan sessions.
If a user can't sign in multiple times, they can always open a related browser session, thereby having multiple entry points into the portal.
So, in short, you really can't enforce a 'sign in once' rule. By association, you therefore can't restrict them to a maximum number of sign-ins either...
Hope that helps you out. Points are always good
