Need assistance with session variable

Hello All, I am new to BIEE product. I have defined an initialization block - called it 'NQ_SESSION' and a session variable 'REVENUE'.
Then, I created a sample report in Answers where I am attempting to use this variable. At report level, on a amount column I am adding a function
"Sales Facts".AMOUNT/VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.REVENUE)
But the Answers does not return the correct value. Why? Thank you, Sonya

Please give us more details :
- what is the request of your init block ?
- what are the returned results ?
- can you copy the request generated by OBIEE ? (in the session logs)
Other question : When you just display the value of the variable, do you have the right value ?

Need assistance with Windows 2008 R2 server BSOD - ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY (fc)

Need assistance with Windows 2008 R2 server BSOD - ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY (fc)
I have a Windows 2008 R2 server which is experiencing random BSOD during the night. This is occurring maybe once or twice a week. I have gathered two Memory crash files. This server is running Citrix XenApp 6.5 but nothing else is reporting an issue except
for the memory dump. I’m looking for assistance in reading crash file and finding the cause.
I’ve spent over a week going through articles trying to learn and trouble shoot the BSOD but no closer to understanding the WinDbg 6.3.9600 report.
This is a production server and I have verified that Windows Updates has updated the server with latest releases. I’m hoping that the crash file will show something before I have to run the Driver Verifier.
The crash zip file is located -

LaCie doesnt make ANYTHING. It contains a Seagate 3.5" 5400RPM HD.
Check the HD on another computer, if nothing, your SATA bridge is fried, or the HD (very unlikely since its a Seagate inside)
Youd have to crack open the HD, remove the SATA bridge cart thats plugged into the HD and put the HD into an enclosure or a HD dock to get the data
those external HD use a 50 cent SATA bridge famous for failing. The curse of all the good HD externals is the junk 3rd party SATA bridges attached to them that crash and burn.

Need help with maintaining variable choices in new session

I have a flash app. set up with several variables. Is there a
simple action script that will allow the user to maintain their
choices after closing the .swf and re-launching it?
Thanks in advance for your help.

how are you checking if those components have been checked or
ticked. actually, i probably don't want to know that.
you really should be using a listener to detect when your
components have changed and then you can use the changed method to
set your variables and update your sharedobject.

Help with session variable please - CS5.5 PHP

Hi all,
I am needing a little assistance with using a session variable and hope that someone may point me in the right direction.
I have created a PHP page that uses the Dreamweaver 'User Authentication' feature, and the basics of this works fine, directing a user to the correct pages depending on whether they are or are not a valid user. I would like however to personalise the 'valid user' page with the persons Username as entered in the User Authentication table....a seemingly simple task using a session variable, but one that I just don't seem to be able to get working!
The code generated for the UA on page 1 is as follows:
<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
$loginFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_GET['accesscheck'])) {
$_SESSION['PrevUrl'] = $_GET['accesscheck'];
if (isset($_POST['txtfirst_name'])) {
$loginUsername=$_POST['txtfirst_name'];
$password=$_POST['txtsurname'];
$MM_fldUserAuthorization = "";
$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = "member_update.php";
$MM_redirectLoginFailed = "login.php";
$MM_redirecttoReferrer = false;
mysql_select_db($database_panto, $panto);
$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT firstname, surname FROM web_access WHERE firstname=%s AND surname=%s",
    GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text"));
$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $panto) or die(mysql_error());
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
if ($loginFoundUser) {
     $loginStrGroup = "";
    if (PHP_VERSION >= 5.1) {session_regenerate_id(true);} else {session_regenerate_id();}
    //declare two session variables and assign them
   $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
    $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;
    if (isset($_SESSION['PrevUrl']) && false) {
      $MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];
    header("Location: " . $MM_redirectLoginSuccess );
else {
    header("Location: ". $MM_redirectLoginFailed );
?>
Firstly, the text highlighted in red above appears to be setting the session variable that I require. Is This correct?
If so, what is the code that I need to place in page 2 to use that session variable? or
Do I need to do something else on page 1 to properly assign the session variable?
Would really appreciate your expertise
Mark

It looks as though you've set the columns incorrectly in the User Authentication server behavior. This is the SQL query that checks the user's credentials:
$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT firstname, surname FROM web_access WHERE firstname=%s AND surname=%s",
    GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text"));
You're looking for firstname and surname, whereas you should be looking for the user's login name and password.
$_SESSION['MM_Username'] is a session variable that stores the user's login name. To use it in a subsequent page, all that's needed is for the page to begin with session_start(). You can then echo the value to display it.
If you want to display the person's real name, you need to create a recordset in the second page using $_SESSION['MM_Username'] to find the firstname and surname. Alternatively, you can edit the existing code like this (I've copied only part of it):
$LoginRS__query=sprintf("SELECT firstname, surname FROM web_access WHERE firstname=%s AND password=%s",
    GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"), GetSQLValueString($password, "text"));
$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $panto) or die(mysql_error());
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
if ($loginFoundUser) {
     $loginStrGroup = "";
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($LoginRS);
     $_SESSION['full_name'] = $row['firstname'] . ' ' . $row['surname'];
    if (PHP_VERSION >= 5.1) {session_regenerate_id(true);} else {session_regenerate_id();}
    //declare two session variables and assign them
   $_SESSION['MM_Username'] = $loginUsername;
    $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'] = $loginStrGroup;
You can then use $_SESSION['full_name'] in a subsequent page that begins with session_start().

Purchased ColdFusion 10: Having problem with session variables

My Dept. has just bought CF10 and I'm finally updating my existing web app to CF10 from CF8. My First Problem with CF10 is using session variables.
When using the lower version of CF (since CF 4 to 8) I have never had any problem setting up session variables and getting or using these variables in other pages after a successful login but with CF 10 it seems setting session variables and using them in other pages are a major problems. I'm not sure where have I done wrong in the codes.
First I'm setting the session in my Application.cfc This way:
<cfcomponent displayname="Application" output="true">
<cfset THIS.Name ="MyNewApp"/>
<cfset THIS.ApplicationTimeout = CreateTimeSpan(0,0,20,0) />
<cfset THIS.SessionManagement ="YES"/>
<cfset THIS.SessionTimeout = CreateTimeSpan( 0, 0, 20, 0 ) />
<cfset THIS.SetClientCookies = false />
<cffunction name="OnApplicationStart" access="public" returntype="boolean" output="false">
<cfset application.Main_DSN = "TESTDB">
<cfreturn true />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="onApplicationEnd" output="false">
      <cfargument name="applicationScope" required="true">
    </cffunction>
<cffunction name="OnSessionStart" access="public" returntype="void" output="false" hint="Fires when user session initializes.">
<cfset session.loggedin = "NO">
<cfset session.username = "">
<cfset session.userrights = "">
<cfset session.usergroup = "">
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
After login, user is validated and set values to those session.variables:
........user validation codes here......................
<cfif mylogin NEQ true>
      <cflocation url="/login/login.cfm">
      <cfabort
<cfelse>
      <cfset session.loggedin="Yes">
      <cfset session.username="#Trim(Form.username)#">
     <CFSET qUserRights = LoginObj.getUserRights('#Trim(Form.username)#')>
     <cfset session.userrights = qUserRights>
    <CFSET qUserGroup = LoginObj.getUserGroup('#Trim(Form.username)#')>
        <cfloop query="qUserGroup">
           <cfset session.usergroup = user_group>
           <cfbreak>
        </cfloop>
    
   <cfdump var="#session.loggedin#">
   <cfdump var="#session.username#">
   <cfdump var="#session.userright#">
   <cfdump var="#session.usergroup#">
</cfif>
In index.cfm, Before Login I got:
session.loggedin = NO
session.username = ["empty string"]
session.userrights = ["empty string"]
session.usergroup = ["empty string"]
After a successful Login:
session.loggedin = NO
session.username = ["empty string"]
session.userrights = ["empty string"]
session.usergroup = ["empty string"]
Have I done something wrong? These codes work on CF8. Please help.
I need to mentioned:
CF10 is in Linux and my web app is under https not http. But these session variables should be shared bentween http and https because some older application are still in http.

On which page is the following code?
After login, user is validated and set values to those session.variables:
........user validation codes here......................
<cfif mylogin NEQ true>
      <cflocation url="/login/login.cfm">
      <cfabort
<cfelse>
      <cfset session.loggedin="Yes">
      <cfset session.username="#Trim(Form.username)#">
     <CFSET qUserRights = LoginObj.getUserRights('#Trim(Form.username)#')>
     <cfset session.userrights = qUserRights>
    <CFSET qUserGroup = LoginObj.getUserGroup('#Trim(Form.username)#')>
        <cfloop query="qUserGroup">
           <cfset session.usergroup = user_group>
           <cfbreak>
        </cfloop>
    
   <cfdump var="#session.loggedin#">
   <cfdump var="#session.username#">
   <cfdump var="#session.userright#">
   <cfdump var="#session.usergroup#">
</cfif>

Trouble with session variables

Hello, I am a user of cf for a number of years, but only
lately as of last week have I had the opportunity to work with CF
8.... wow the changes are quite intimidating. But none the less
press on is my thought, so now my trouble. Thing I did was to start
using application.cfc vs application.cfm, as it would appear that
is how things have come to pass. So I looked around and found this
code to set session management:
<cfcomponent output="false" hint="Handles application
level events.">

<cfset THIS.Name = "AppCFC" />
<cfset THIS.ApplicationTimeout = CreateTimeSpan( 0, 0, 60,
0 ) />
<cfset THIS.SessionManagement = true />
<cfset THIS.SetClientCookies = false />
<CFSET request.dsn = "wlaw" />
</cfcomponent>
My problem is that while I can define a session variable on a
page that is not under the SSL cert, my session vars become
undefined once I land on a page under SSL.
Am I missing something? I dont recall this being a problem in
the past. All help is appreciated.
as to setting the var, it is done on an index page which
calls another page in a different directory, but under the same
server,.
<cfset session.ref="foo">
the only changes are that the result page or action page if
you prefer is now under the ssl and the var becomes undefined.
thank you in advance
Mike Dooly

is the object being put in session context serializable.. Also in
          other to avoid any generated classes issues delete all the classes
          whcih weblogic generates as part of deploying the application. That
          should atleast mitigate one explanation for your problem.
          Hope this helps

Help Needed in checking session variable

In a sample site, I am calling a bounded task flow from an unbounded task flow. In the called taskflow the default activity is a router which checks the session variable, and the home page will be loaded only if the session variable is not null. If session variable is null router will lead to a page dispalying 'session expired'. But even after clearing the session if I copy pasted the previous url, the home page is loading. But when I call bounded taskflow from a bounded taskflow, it is working fine. Can anyone suggest any solution? Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply. I'm using jdev 11.1.1.5.0.. I'm just trying with a sample example. I have a login page and when the user logins, the user name is stored in session. the loginpage view activity is in adfc config unbounded taskflow. The login credentials is validated in a backing bean and based on the return value, if the login is valid, a bounded taskflow 'hometaskflow' is called. In this bounded taskflow, the default activity is a router wchich checks the username stored in session. If the username is not null it will lead to the 'homepage' view. Else if it is null it will lead to a 'sessionexpired' view.
In the java class of login page I'm accessing the session variable as shown
public Username getSessionBean()
Username username =
(Username)resolveExpression("#{Username}");
return username;
public static Object resolveExpression(String expression)
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Application app = facesContext.getApplication();
ExpressionFactory elFactory = app.getExpressionFactory();
ELContext elContext = facesContext.getELContext();
ValueExpression valueExp =
elFactory.createValueExpression(elContext, expression,
Object.class);
return valueExp.getValue(elContext);
On login button click the function being executed is as shown
public String onLoginClick() {
if(String.valueOf(itUserName.getValue()).equals("admin")
&& String.valueOf(itPassword.getValue()).equals("admin"))
Username username=getSessionBean();
username.setUsername(itUserName.getValue().toString());
return "success";
else {
return "invalid";
And to set username as null on logout, I used this function on logout click
public void clearSession()
Username username=getSessionBean();
username.setUsername(null);
The EL expression used to check the value of session variable is
#{sessionScope.Username.username==null} outcome is expired
#{sessionScope.Username.username!=null} outcome is active
This worked when I used in a bounded taskflow, which is being called from another bounded taskflow. But not working in this scenario...

Issue with session variable

Hi,
I'm trying to setup a session variable to filter an Answer query based on the user login name. I've created the following
- A database table that contains a user name and its related filter (Entity)
- An initialization block for the session variable to issue the following sql: select Entity from table where user_name = ':USER'
- Created a target session variable called CURR_ENTITY as the target and assign a default value as 'No entity'.
- Filter my Answer query to use the session variable CURR_ENTITY
After restart of BI server and Presentation services and opening the report, CURR_ENTITY is always set to the default value. I've checked NQQuery,.log and looks like the initialization block was not returning any rows.
Any ideas on how to get around this issue? Thanks.
Regards,
Gerd

Hi gerd,
select Entity from table where user_name = ':USER'Check if this query is returning values in the backend DB.If so it is returning then it should work fine in session variable.
After defining the target variable CURR_ENTITY and test it in the screen.That shows you is it picking all the values or a single defaulted value.
If its showing all values then re-check your block once again.
(OR)
In the target variable instead of variable define row-wise initialization (i mean check it) and change the SQL in the variable to this
select 'CURR_ENTITY',Entity from table where user_name = ':USER'
and test it so you can use it in answers .....it should work with what is required.
hope answered the question.
Cheers,
KK

Row level security with session variables, not a best practice?

Hello,
We are about to implement row level security in our BI project using OBIEE, and the solution we found most convenient for our requirement was to use session variables with initalization blocks.
The problem is that this method is listed as a "non best practice" in the Oracle documentation.
Alternative Security Administration Options - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
(This appendix describes alternative security administration options included for backward compatibility with upgraded systems and are not considered a best practice.)
Managing Session Variables
System session variables obtain their values from initialization blocks and are used to authenticate Oracle Business Intelligence users against external sources such as LDAP servers or database tables. Every active BI Server session generates session variables and initializes them. Each session variable instance can be initialized to a different value. For more information about how session variable and initialization blocks are used by Oracle Business Intelligence, see "Using Variables in the Oracle BI Repository" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Metadata Repository Builder's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
How confusing... what is the best practice then?
Thank you for your help.
Joao Moreira

authenticating / authorizing part is take care by weblogic and then USER variable initialized and you may use it for any initblocks for security.
Init block for authenticating / authorizing and session variables are different, i guess you are mixing both.

Problem with Session variable initialization block

Hi,
I'm getting strange results when using session variables in my repository files.
I have created session variables as specified in the document which is available at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/bi_ee_1013/bi_admin/biadmin.html
The main problem getting with the system session variable (USER) in the select statement.
My select statement is as follows,
select ':USER',case when upper(':USER') = 'KUMAR' then 'APR-05' end from Dual
The problem is while logging into the BI Answers it is allowing all the invalid users to login who does not exist.
when i remove the quotes and simply use :USER in the select statement it is not allowing the invalid users to login but giving error while displaying the results.
when i remove the user variable from select statement its giving correct results.
Can i know what is causing the problem.
Thanks,
Kumar.

Filtering a Recordset with session variable

Hi
I am trying to filter a recordset based on a session
variable. The session variable is passed from the login page via a
username which is their email address. This has been successful.
However when I want to filter the users table - tbl_users to
show their first name it doesn't work.
I followed the adobe help tutorial plus ahave tried other
combinations and I am now at a loss on where exactly I am going
wrong.
The recordset is rs_UserAccess
I have a session variable called - MM_Username
The table has 5 records of various users
The code that I have fiddling with is -
<%
Dim rs_UserAccess
Dim rs_UserAccess_numRows
Set rs_UserAccess = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs_UserAccess.ActiveConnection = MM_conn_sidecounter_STRING
rs_UserAccess.Source = "SELECT * FROM tbl_users WHERE
username = MM_Username"
rs_UserAccess.CursorType = 0
rs_UserAccess.CursorLocation = 2
rs_UserAccess.LockType = 1
rs_UserAccess.Open()
rs_UserAccess_numRows = 0
%>
Any help would be appreciated. I have outlined below the
different combinations I have tested.
