OWSM: How to use log step

Hi,
I want to make use of the LOG step in the policy to write whatever happened in the request and response pipelines. but inclusion of the log step makes no difference. i want to know whether this is possible or not.
If anyone has some tutorials for how to use log step pl send me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Abhi...

Hi!
If i just make a little example and add the logstep before and after for example a xmlencrypt-policy-step, and log the whole payload..everything works fine overhere.
If i go to the Operational Management>Overall Statistics>Message Logs and can see every step inwhich it got called (the log policy step)

    The first means something is missing, most likely on an external HD.
    If the other two were sent at the same time, they're probably all related to a video capture problem.
    Many of the messages you'll see in your logs don't indicate a real problem -- they'll be status messages, info for developers, etc., so don't try to figure out every message you see.
    If you see the same message repeated over and over (as the MacKeeper ones probably did), that's clearly a problem, of course.
    If you're having specific problems, but not getting messages on your screen, check for log messages that seem related (ie, sent at the same time, and/or from a process you recognize as being related).  See the blue box in OSX Log Files for help deciphering the messages.  If you're not sure about what a particular process does, many of the names of Apple processes are listed here: http://triviaware.com/macprocess/all with a brief explanation.
    For other processes, or other references, Google will often turn up some info.
    If none of that helps, post a new thread for each such problem, with as much detail as you can about what you were doing and what kind of difficulty you were having, and, of course, the message(s) that seem related.
    Try to post them in the appropriate forum; if you're having a problem with a specific Apple app, there may be a forum for that app, where folks who know it well hang out.  

  • How to use Logging?

    I am trying to get QoS and other information from OSMFPlayer. I have logging set to true in the project properties.
    I import org.osmf.logging.*, and add the code...
    CONFIG::LOGGING { logger.fatal("LOG THIS INFO"); }
    CONFIG::LOGGING { private static const logger:org.osmf.logging.Logger = org.osmf.logging.Log.getLogger("OSMFPlayer"); }
    (I am using logger.fatal because I assumed it would be the best to get only the information i want.)
    It appears that thsi is all I need to create a log, however, I cannot find a log anywhere. Is this all that is needed to create a log. And where should the log appear? The documentation is pretty sparse on this topic.
    My setup is a Linux server with my media and OSMFPlayer streaming to a Windows client using Firefox.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Dan,
    1) There is no document on VideoQoSPlugin as far as I know.  The brief steps of how to use it is
    1. Add QoS variables to the Plugin as you want to see.
    1.1 Add QoS metadata to VideoQoSPluginMetadata.as as public var.
       eg) public static const VIDEOBUFFERLENGTH:String = "videoBufferLength";
    1.2 Add value to your metadata in VideoOsOProxyElement.as,
          Note that onTimer function has NetStreamInfo "qos".
        eg)       metadata.addValue
                        ( VideoQoSPluginMetadata.VIDEOBUFFERLENGTH
                        , qos.videoBufferLength.toString()
    2. Load the Plugin into your player : See other plugin samples.
          mediaFactory.loadPlugin(pluginResource);
    3.  Get the QoS data in your player .(eg) org.osmf.qos.VideoQoSPluginMetadata.CURRENT_FPS
         It is up to you how to use / display QoS data.
    2) As you said StrobeMediaPlayback has already built for many QoS parameters so I might be just easier to use that.  I saw your post to SMP so you are on the right track as Andrian is the person you want to talk regards to SMP.
    3) Air APP is an application platform as oppposed to an web application such as a HTML based app.  You can download it from here.
    http://get.adobe.com/air/  and install the debug console or run it from your flex builder.   The readme file has an instructions to the debug console.
    Basically, you launch the debug console first, then run OSMF player and play a video.  (Turn on the Logging option on : -define CONFIG::DEBUG true -define CONFIG::FLASH_10_1 true),    The debug message will be displayed on the debug console as the video plays.

  • How to use logging in the actions classes extends standart actions?

    Hello!
    I have some action classes extends standart actions, for example Z_ExtMaintainBasketDispatcherAction extends MaintainBasketDispatcherAction. I tried to use logging functionality in my classes but there were no my lines in log and trace files.
    For example I added followed lines in basketPerform() method of Z_ExtMaintainBasketDispatcherAction:
    boolean isDebugEnabled = log.isDebugEnabled();
    if(isDebugEnabled){
    log.debug("++++++++++++++++ Test tracing in B2B_SNG. ++++++++++++++++");
    but in there was no such line neither in log file nor in trace file.
    How I can use logging functionality in my own classes? I need it for tracing and logging.

  • OWSM: How to reference Custom Step properties/parameters?

    Hi,
    When you define a Custom Step via a XML file. You can define properties/parameters. In the sample files that comes with OWSM (CustomAuthenticationStep.xml) Username and Password are defined. My problem is that I cannot figure out how to reference these in the Java Step source. In the sample file CustomAuthenticationStep.java there are no references. There are two class variables called expectedUsername and expectedUserPassword, but they are never set in the source? There are nothing in the Extensibility Guide about this. Anybody know how it works?
    Regards Peter

    I've made a couple of these now. It somehow walks through the xml file you upload and then the properties defined are matched with the appropriate get/set methods in the actual java code.
    One example I had to make was to add HTTP Basic Auth headers to a request. Here is the section of the xml file.
    <csw:PropertyDefinitionSet name="HTTP Basic Auth Params">
    <csw:PropertyDefinition name="httpBasicAuthUsername" type="string" isRequired="true">
    <csw:DisplayName>Username</csw:DisplayName>
    <csw:Description>Http Basic Auth Username</csw:Description>
    <csw:DefaultValue>
    <csw:Absolute>USERNAME</csw:Absolute>
    </csw:DefaultValue>
    </csw:PropertyDefinition>
    <csw:PropertyDefinition name="httpBasicAuthPassword" type="string" isRequired="true" displayType="password">
    <csw:DisplayName>Http Basic Auth Password</csw:DisplayName>
    <csw:Description>Password to access Private Key</csw:Description>
    <csw:DefaultValue>
    <csw:Absolute>PASSWORD</csw:Absolute>
    </csw:DefaultValue>
    </csw:PropertyDefinition>
    </csw:PropertyDefinitionSet>
    You then have these get/set methods at the bottom of the class I created.
    public String gethttpBasicAuthUsername() {
    return this._httpBasicAuthUsername;
    public void sethttpBasicAuthUsername(String username) {
    this._httpBasicAuthUsername = username;
    public String gethttpBasicAuthPassword() {
    return this._httpBasicAuthPassword;
    public void sethttpBasicAuthPassword(String password) {
    this._httpBasicAuthPassword = password;
    Then I had this and the properties were available for use.
    public class BasicAuthStep extends AbstractStep {
    private String _httpBasicAuthUsername = null;
    private String _httpBasicAuthPassword = null;

    From the portal application I have to get the logged in user and use the same user to filter the records in Portlet. I have to execute a view Criteria in portlet as a default method activity which takes logged in user as a input param.
    Is this achievable? Please let me know.

    Its a duplicate of How to set userName from security context to Criteria in portlet
    Edited by: Morgan Freeman on Aug 24, 2011 1:24 AM

    It's possible. It's somewhat large to explain so i will write an example portlet. I will post the link to the application when it's finished.
    You just need to request the username from within your portlet. WebCenter passes the username to your portlet on the PortletRequest.
    From your business component you should write a query with a bind variable that you expose to your client. In your JSPX (portlet) you execute the method that sets the bind variable and create an InvokeAction in the executables so it gets executed upon load.
    That's the short description :)
    I'll give some more info when i finish the app.

  • OWSM: How to use Generic Key in Credential Store 11g

    Hi there,
    I am facing the following issue with the Weblogic Credential Store Framework (CSF):
    Context:
    I have a web service exposed somewhere in a Tomcat server. This service is not secured, initially it was, but the idea was to deport it to a mediator using OWSM WS policy . The service internally extracts the username from SOAP Header and perform some authorization checks prior performing some business logic.
    So our idea was first to configure a new authentication provider in the default Weblogic's realm to hit our LDAP system. When this was done, we created a simple composite to virtualize the web service and apply a WS Security with username. In order to do that, we did create a new key in the Credential Store under oracle.wsm.security.map and declare our username + password for a particular user in LDAP. We tested it and it works fine!
    Issue: Now we want to leverage this using any user from the authentication provider. We created a new key which has the type "Generic" on the entreprise manager. We don't know though what to do next to specify "every user in our authentication provider", the documentation here is very evasive and we are stick to guess the grammar the CSF expects. We saw that WSLT could be used too to create the key.
    Soa Suite version: 11.1.1.3
    Does anyone has a clue to solve this issue ?
    Thanks

    It is unclear where you are having a problem.  Is your issue at runtime (when the form runs in the browser) or when working in the Builder on the form?
    Also be aware that you will need to sign your jar and include some new manifest entries.  Refer to the Java 7u51 documentation and blogs that discuss the changes.

    Hi, when you get an answer to this I'd be interested to hear it too.
    I found this:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Math.html#log(double)
    I'm completely new to Java, but I think to use the log function you need to write: Math.log( ) and the output number has to be a double rather than just an integer or long . The inputValue might also need to be a double, not sure though as int works fine in my program.
    Also the log function is in the natural base rather than 10. If you wanted to take log to base 10 of, for example, 100, which should give you an answer of 2; you need to do ln (which is the natural log) of 100 divided by ln of the base you want, in this case 10:
    log10 (100) = 2
    ln(100) / ln (10) = 2
    so in code:
    int logBase = 10;
    int inputValue = 100;
    double outputValue = 0;
    outputValue = Math.log(inputValue) / Math.log(logBase);
    System.out.println("Output value should = " + outputValue);Let me know if that helps.

  • How to use the Validate step for Approve step

    Hi Experts,
       I have modeled a workflow with the steps start,process, validate, approve, process and stop.
    Process is set to owner and approve is set to some other user user1.
       My requirement is as follows :
    1) Approve the records by approver and then it should send it to the next step for further processing
    1.1)  if the approver did not approve the record it should send a error message until the record is approved. So it should not send it to the next step when record is not approved
    I am using a field called item status for approving and disapproving the records. My validation is based on this field only... Validation working fine when i tested it manually.
    But my issue is when am using this validate step in workflow design validation is getting triggered for all the users.as per my requirement only approver should get the error message.But in my scenario owner is getting the error message and approver is not getting any message.
    How can i use the validate step only for particular step say approve in workflow.
    Can anyone please help me out how should use validate step only for approve step...
    Thanks & Regards
    Sireesha.
    Edited by: sireesha esukapalli on Jun 17, 2008 2:48 PM

    Hi ,
      I have set the validation property to "None".
      My design is as follows :
    start->process->validate->approve->stop.
      Owner is assigned to process step and approver is assigned to approve step.
    Now my problem is owner is also getting this error message along with the approver. AS per the design both process, approve users are getting the error message.
    As per my requirement only approver should get this prompt but not the owner.
    How can i restrict only for specifc user to get this message.
    Can anybody please advice how can restrict the owner to not get this error message...
    Thanks & Regards

    As already suggested, you can display custom messages using AbstractTrace.
    trace = (AbstractTrace)param.get( StreamTransformationConstants.MAPPING_TRACE );
                        trace.addInfo("G1-CYCLE is missing");
    For more on coding front refer:
    http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/current/pi/com/sap/aii/mapping/api/StreamTransformation.html
    To get this trace seen in MONI, set parameter TRACE_LEVEL in SXMB_ADM to 2.

  • How to use old archieve logs with a new control file

    Environment:
    ORACLE_BASE="/export/home/oracle"
    ORACLE_HOME="/export/home/oracle/product/8.1.6"
    NLS_LANG=".UTF8"
    2 partitions:
    i) /data1 -- contains important datafiles (OS striping on 3 hard
    disks)
    ii) /export/home -- contains the oracle program, and SYS/SYSTEM
    datafiles
    Problem:
    -/data1 cannot be read/mount (damaged)
    -oracle failed
    Action Performed:
    -reinstalled OS
    -mount /export/home successfully (all oracle system files,
    instance init files exist)
    -/data1 is an empty partition
    -created the oracle user, and its groups
    -chown recusively for the $ORACLE_BASE directory
    -set all the oracle environment variables
    -attempted to start the instance, but failed due to a control
    file was
    missing
    -since control files were set to be mirrored, i copied a control
    file somewhere
    from /export/home/oracle/oradata/<SID>/control1.ctl to
    /data1/oracle/oradata/<SID>/control2.ctl (i.e. have them back to
    their original locations)
    -the instance failed to start as well, since the datafile set in
    the control files couldn't be found
    -this forced me to re-create the control file... b4 i re-create
    a new control file, i backed up the old one
    -once the control file was created, the database can be started,
    but, to oracle, all achieve log information are lost (although
    the achieve log's physical files r still there)
    -i imported the important data from a dump file that was
    exported a week ago b4 the system failure
    -since we r using the new control file, the redo logs switch
    contains no achieve log information that the old control file
    has, so running "recover database" doesn't do anything
    Purpose:
    since the dump file is a week old, i'd like to get the data
    after my last export and b4 the system failure. the database was
    run in arhieve log mode, how can i recover those data with the
    new control file
    Question:
    -how can we create a new control file that can drive the old

  • Why use P2 technology - how do you log?

We don't need to re-log everything in the edit suite, we just start cutting with known good footage. Scene numbers, take numbers are already entered, and we're ready to go.
    With P2, you record your footage, wait 8-10 minutes to copy the files to your laptop, then import the clips, with no markings; you don't know what the good takes are, you don't have any scene or take references, or useful in or out points. These all need to be added in FCP or P2 Log. You have to review all of the footage you've shot again, decide if the take is good or not (which can be fun if you've had 7 or 8 takes and it turns out take 5 was the 'good' one). This strikes me as an incredible waste of time, something we don't have the luxury of with ever shrinking budgets. I expect you have to keep some kind of paper log, (welcome to the 1980's) with an unpredictable file naming system, so that you know what you have when you're ready to post.
    So is this really a good solution? Yes, you don't have to digitize. But you do have to log everything, which is very simple as you shoot in FCP, but you can't merge the P2 footage with a log kept in P2 Log or in FCP. Which brings me to my question: Can you create a log for P2 footage as you shoot, that can be brought into FCP without having to review the footage again or do a lot of post production typing?
    To me, this is the Achilles heel of P2 production. Anyone have any thoughts? We don't shoot a frame without a scene number and tape number, we shoot 50 good shots a day from about 150 takes per day, and at about 60 days a year, we need to keep track of what we shoot as we go. I estimate at least a 1/2 day of logging for every day of shooting with the P2, and frankly, I don't have 30 working days in my year to create logs that I can easily make while we shoot.
    P2, on the surface, looks great. But P2 and any direct to disk technology, to me, looks like a big step backwards in terms of workflow.
    Fire away, folks.

    As the editor of the productions I work on, I am never on set. And I and the producer prefer it that way. This way I come in with an objective point of view, does the shot work or not. I am not clouded by how much time and effort went into getting the shot, I just look at it afterwards and judge it by its value. So we never log on the set. We simply back up.
    When we shoot our DVCAM footage, we log in FCP on a Powerbook, we mark all the good takes, then digitize based on what we've already seen. We don't need to re-log everything in the edit suite, we just start cutting with known good footage. Scene numbers, take numbers are already entered, and we're ready to go.
    You do all this work on the set. We don't, we do it in post, so there isn't twice the amount of work...it is just done later. This is true of every production I have worked on...documentary, narrative TV, short film. We aren't in the field logging and capturing...that is done later. But it is still done. We also slate our footage, and if someone is on the set to do so, they act as Script Supervisor and mark the good and bad takes. So when I look at the footage in the P2 import window on FCP 5.1.2, I can take the good but not the bad. But...I am always in favor of getting everything, because even though a take might be bad, it might contain something good that I can use.
    With P2, you record your footage, wait 8-10 minutes to copy the files to your laptop, then import the clips, with no markings; you don't know what the good takes are, you don't have any scene or take references, or useful in or out points. These all need to be added in FCP or P2 Log. You have to review all of the footage you've shot again,
    Again, we slate in the field. Yes, the clips come in with odd names, but when you capture a tape there is no INSTANT name associated with that. You have to give it a name...as you import. You can do the same with FCP and P2, as you import give it a name, scene, take...mark it good. And again, we aren't reviewing the footage AGAIN...it is done for the first time in post. They may review it in the field with the P2 viewer to ensure it looks good, just like on any film production with a DVCAM deck recording thru the camera viewfinder or rewinding the camera tapes.
    So is this really a good solution?
    Works rather well for me. No problems whatsoever...except when I first started doing this and put ALL the imported P2 clips into one bin. 2000 clips. I'll never make that mistake again. I separate footage by card much like I make Dailies bins with tapes.

    But you do have to log everything, which is very simple as you shoot in FCP,
    You said that you log everything...in the field. I am logging everything in post. Still have to log. And, how do you "shoot in FCP?" That is a non-linear edit, not a camera. What do you mean by this? I guess I don't get how you are logging in the field without having to log. You are still taking the time to log and name the footage...so you lost me here.
    Can you create a log for P2 footage as you shoot, that can be brought into FCP without having to review the footage again or do a lot of post production typing?
    Not that I know of. Achilles heel? I suppose if you look at it from the point of view of your current workflow. But you have to realize that it ISN'T your typical tape workflow. Stop trying to make it work like a tape workflow. Square peg in circular hole. Same thing happened when people switched from Film to Tape...the workflows they were accustomed to didn't work...they had to devise new ones.
    You are going to have to figure out a new way of doing things...or just not shoot with the HVX. It is a very different way of doing things, but production can be pretty slick if you work out a system. I have a system and it works great. If you don't like it, don't use it. Grab an HDV camera and struggle with THAT format.
    P2, on the surface, looks great. But P2 and any direct to disk technology, to me, looks like a big step backwards in terms of workflow.
    Tell that to David Fincher's crew on ZODIAK. Not one tape or scrap of film in that production...all digital.
    If the tapeless workflow doesn't work for you...don't use it. Easy decision.
