Pass Username & Password to a Different Application in the Same Workspace

Can I pass the username and password from a main menu to open a different application in the same workspace. I'm trying to prevent the user from having to logon again. My main menu has links to different applications within the same work space.
Thank you

Anonymous - One way to do it (if you are using HTML DB's built-in session management) is to edit each application's authentication scheme and type in the same cookie name in the cookie name field (use any name you like). Another way is to use Single Sign-On.

Can I view another page from a different application in the same workspace?

I'm a newbie and I've searched through the threads and can not find exactly what I'm looking for.
I do not wish to copy a page from a different APP. What I want to do is create an application where on tab is actually a tab from a different App.
Like this, I have SCHEDULED_TASKS application that has a calander that is updated weekly. I have another appliction that is used for our Database Testers to track testing on the database.
I have a Tab in CAS_TESTING named TESTING_SCHEDULE. It is this tab that I want to have referance the SCHEDULED_TASKS Calender so testers can view the schedule for service packs.
Is there a way that I can do this?
Thanks,
Mike Long

Mike,
In terms of the UI and tabs, you can use parent tabs (use a two-level tab page template). Or you could just put links in on app's pages that go to the other app using Lists, for example. In any of these links from one app to the other, you must include the session ID (&APP_SESSION.).
If the application's are both public (no authentication required), you're done.
If the apps require authentication, edit each app's authentication scheme and put some name in for cookie name (anything you like), using the same name in both apps. Depending on the authentication method, you then have to figure out who owns the login page, etc.
That should do it.

Separate CSS files for Differenct Applications in the Same Workspace

I am working in APEX 4.0, using Theme 4 (Topaz), primarily with the region template "Top Bar." The application I am working on has gotten so large that I decided to break it into two applications. So I copied the original application and then deleted the pages that I did not want in the second application. I then modified the authentication for a single login. One of the nice things about the Top Bar template is that you can color the background. I had a blue background in the first application and wanted to use a differenct color in the other. So I created a second CSS file and uploaded it to the Cascading Style Sheets area of the Shared Components file for the second application. Turns out that both it and the style sheet for the first application now show up in the CSS file area. The CSS file for the second application has no effect. Here is the CSS code:
.rc-content-main
background-color: #E5E5AA;
}I also tried giving the region on each page in the second application a static id and then identifying them in the CSS file by the id. That didn't work either, at least not yet. Sometimes it takes the server a while to refresh.
Question: For two applications in the same workspace, can there be separate CSS files? If so, how do I set them up so that each responds only to one of the applications?

Hello,
If you upload your file to Shared Components >> Cascading Style Sheetst then:
edit your page template in the header section and just before +*</head>*+ tag add :
<link rel="stylesheet" src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#MY_FILE.css" type="text/css" />And that will be applied for all pages that have the same Page Template.
You can edit a page and put this in the header section to be applied only for a that page:
<style>
<link rel="stylesheet" src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#MY_FILE.css" type="text/css" />
<style>If the file is on your web server then replace #WORKSPACE_IMAGES# with #IMAGE_PREFIX#
This should be helpful to you:

How can I let firefox save usernames/passwords for multiple subdomains that use the same username but different passwords?

on a particular website that has sub domains I have multiple accounts with the same name but different password. Firefox seems only able to save one of them, because they are on the same site.

Mozilla and IE show different applications referencing the same URL

Hi, I have a very strange problem.
I deployed a web app, using Sun App Server 9, directly from a directory of the server. Then I made some changes and redeployed the application. But IE still showing me the app before the changes, and Mozilla shows me the application after the changes.

I solved this problem,
The two browsers showed the same jsp's, but different non jsp files, such as js, and css. I only had to refresh the page.

How can 2 people debug applications at the same time?

Hello,
We are using the NWDS to develop our portal applications.
When one developer debugs a certain program the second can't, he receives "Unable to connect to remote VM".
Is it possible to have 2 people debugging different applications at the same time?
Roy

Yes,
(but I usually define application server as a java server process, and server as physical server).
-go into configtool
-select one of the instances
-go to the Server menu and select Add server
Then you have a new server node. Select this one in the configtool and go to the servers debug tab. Set it to debugable and define a unique debug port (open command prompt and run netstat -an | find "LISTENING" to find out which ports are in use).

Application Builder Question: how to install several applications in the same computer?

Hello,
I have two LabView applications and its installers, all of them generated with the aplication builder. Both works fine: I can install them in several computers without LabView. But when I try to install both in the same computer, the result is that I only have the last application I've just installed. I want to get the two applications installed at the same time in the computer. Is it possible? Anyone can help me?. I'm using LabView 2009 SP1
Thanks in advance

Exactly that. I'm triyng with several options in the Application and Installer builder, but it seems it does not work
It works quite well. We have installed over a dozen different applications on the same computer. I suspect you have something configured incorrectly in your installers and possibily the builder itself. We would need to see those to see what is not correct. One possibity is that your builds are generating the same GUID for the applications. Therefore even though the names are different the installer thinks they are the same thing.

Collecting data from advantech-usb4704 with two different apps at the same time

I wonder if I can access to Advantech-4704 with two different applications at the same time?
I use this block in my vis.
I have enough ports, but inputs are needed in completely different applications. Do I have to close one of them or can they run simultaneously?
Thankyou!

Dear gtu,
as nathand said, usually it is not supported to access the same physical resource simultaneously from multiple programs. In case of DAQmx for instance, you will get an error message which says that the resource is already reserved. I suppose the same would happen with your driver, however it might be worth a try.
One workaround could be however if you revise your applications and merge the codes if it is possible so that no concurent resource allocation takes place.

Passing Username/Password from .xsql to Oracle

Is there any other way to connect to the Oracle than hardcoding username, password, dburl and driver in the XSQLConfig.xml file?
Can I use parameters in .xsql files?
The idea is that every web user connects to DB like himself, so I am looking for a way to pass Username/Password from web application to the Oracle using xsql files on every connection.
Thanks in advance.
Oleg.

While that may be true for publically accessible sites, I've found many, many internal web-apps need user authentication (login, whatever). In fact, the inability to do this easily has tipped some of our projects away from web-apps.

Passing different values to the same servlet

Hi,
Is there a way to pass different values to the same servlet?
Background:
I have a database that I query to acquire a list of customers, then I show each customer as a link, that when clicked will show details of that customer. (The customer table is dynamic so I can't create a new page for each customer)
When using JSP what I do is
//Do query database
while (rst.next())
String cust = rst.getString ("cust");
out.write("<a href = \"cust2.jsp?cust=" + cust + " \" >" + cust + "</a> ");
}Then on the cust2.jsp. I will use
String str = request.getParameter ("cust");to acquire the customer to get details of.
Is there a way to do the same using servlets?
I could swap to JSP when creating this particular part of the project but it won't look good and it would help me learn a few things when there is another way.

I want to know if there is a way to pass a variable from a webpage link like in my JSP example using servlets.
Here is what I wanted to do:
I have a webpage that contains customer names and each name has a link to the same servlet (let's say the link is famia/servb). I want servb to show detailed information about the customer my visitor clicked in the webpage.
The logic I was thinking is to pass a variable to this servlet, then I can use that variable to know which customer should I query in my database. So that I can show the details to my users.
Here lies my problem, I don't know how I can pass this variable, or even know which customer my visitor clicked. I can't use a new servlet for each client since the customer is in a database and if my customer base grows then I would need to create a lot more web page that does the same thing.
The JSP example I gave is how I will be coding it if I am using JSP, but now I am using servlets. So I was wodnering if there is a way to do this using servlet. Or should I stay with using JSP for this particular logic and just call servb after the JSP page acquired the variable.
I'm trying not to use "<original URL> + ? + <variable> = <value>" (eg: http://www.famia.net/customer?cust=famia) as the means for passing the variable. (or in the example as a means of passing variable cust with value famia)

How can i deploy two different versions of the same application on the same server??

I have two different versions of an application. One is a released version. And another version under development. I need to port this version of the application to the same server. I'm using the same classes and packages(except for some new ones). Is it sufficient if i change the name of my ear(application name). Or should i change my code also.

Hi
You can repackage the new versions of ear,jar and war with different names. I hope that should work well.
Cheers

I have 2 different accounts at the same websites. Whenever I go to that website, one of my usernames prefills the UN field and I can't access the other account. I cannot overwrite my pre-filled username. Ideas?

I have 2 different accounts at the same websites. Whenever I go to that website, one of my two user names (always the same one) pre-fills the user-name field and I can't access the other account. The website rightfully rejects my password. I cannot overwrite my pre-filled user-name because the second I hit enter to logon, the original user-name rewrites itself into it's field. Neither of the user names is being saved by firefox anywhere in the "tools"; Options, security, advanced or privacy menu fields.
I did notice that that website has installed a cookie onto my computer called "_rememberme" which contains the user-name that is plaguing me.
This is a website that I access for very sensitive and important information and I must have both accounts accessible at different times.
Thanks, Joshua
XP, sp3; FF3.6.3
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I added the second account on this website.

You need to clear that remember me cookie and make sure that you remove a check mark to remember you on that website.
Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
You can disable the automatic fill of a name and password.
See:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_only_filled_after_entering_user_name
http://kb.mozillazine.org/signon.autofillForms
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

How can I share user in the same workspace but different applications

I recently created a new application (new) in the same workspace as my old application (old).
I have about 35 application express users. They are stored in uppercase.
The new appl (old) , login page will only accept the DB user login and Not the application users. When I type it in uppercase, it revert it to lower case.
I have no authentication schemes, uses all defaults. I created a DB user and 35 application users.
It give me " Invalid Login Credentials'.
I am due to upgrade tomorrow, but now have run into this problem!!
Desperate

Angela,
That is not clear.
I recently created a new application (new) in the same workspace as my old application (old).Now you have exactly two applications in that workspace.
I have about 35 application express users. They are stored in uppercase.Okay.
The new appl (old) , ...What?
...login page will only accept the DB user login and Not the application users.What DB user did you create and why did you create it? Your application must be using a different authentication scheme that the one you intended. Check the current authentication scheme and set it to the Application Express scheme (make it current) or whichever scheme matches that used by the working application.
When I type it in uppercase, it revert it to lower case.I can't explain that unless you created a database user account using double quotes around the lower-case name.
I have no authentication schemes, uses all defaults. I created a DB user and 35 application users.Again, why did you create a DB user?
I am due to upgrade tomorrow, ...What is an upgrade?
What is your current database version and Application Express version?

Set up username & password "admin" are not accepted by the Set Up page

I hope someone can help.
When I finished setting up the router via the cd-set up wizard, I tried getting into the Set Up page via the Internet Explorer.
It does not accept the username & password "admin" that is mentionned in the set-up manual.
Please help.
Thank you

Not too hard to know. It's documented. But what's really interesting is that it's not always true. With some Linksys products, even though the manual and tech support say leave user name blank, you actually have to type in 'admin'!

Why is it that I can't sign in on facetime, but I can sign in on app.store? With facetime,I'm getting an error, invalid username and password eventhough I have typed exactly the same when I'm signing in on the app.store. pls.help, thanks

1. Make sure software is up to date
2. Make sure FaceTime is enabled; Settings>FaceTime
3. Make sure Date and Time is correctly set; Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
4. Make sure Push Notification is enabled
5. Make sure phone number or email address is correct
6. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) until you see the Apple Logo
