Portal Menus and Viewing Permissions

Hello and Happy Holidays!
At our Company we are considering using Portal Menus to allow
users to navigate through forms and applications they use for
daily work. The problem that we are faced with is that our
Developers need to be able to see what menu items individuals
have access to and at the same time NOT be able to alter the
code or permissions. We have tried a variety of different
permissions settings, but cannot seem to allow "view only"
access to the code and permissions for Portal menus.
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this through Portal
permissions or through scripts to get the data from tables?

Which version are you using?
Have you checked the "About" link of menu?
Clicking on this will bring the Menu with SubMenus.
Click on different SubMenus to see the details.
If you are not able to solve this then pls post your reply again.
Thanx,
Chetan.

Jdeveloper with VPD / FGAC possible ? i.e. oracle portal tables and views

I am trying to create some view objects based on oracle portals views and tables. However I always get the following error.
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL.WWCTX_SSO", line 1407
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL.WWCTX_SSO", line 1216
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL.WWCTX_SSO", line 1469
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL.WWCTX_API", line 152
This is because I have not set the context using plsql. i.e
portal.wwctx_api_private.set_context(p_user_name => 'PORTAL',p_update_flat => true);
Is there a way of using portal views in jdevloper and setting the context first. I am thinking the portal database uses vpd, fine grained access control.
Regards
Orlando

Hi,
using ADF BC you can override the prepare session method on the AM to set the context.
public void prepareSession(Session _session)
super.prepareSession(_session);
// some PLSQL like
String appContext = "Begin ctxhrpckg.set_userinfo('"+getApplicationUserName()+"'); END;";
java.sql.CallableStatement st= null;
try
st = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(appContext,0);
st.execute();
} catch (java.sql.SQLException s)
throw new oracle.jbo.JboException(s);
} finally
try
if (st!= null)
st.close();
} catch (java.sql.SQLException s2){}

SharePoint 2013 document library, permissions to upload and view shared document only

SharePoint 2013 document library I want to give access to client where they can upload and view their uploaded document and can see all documents shared with them.
I have managed to show all document shared with them only by deactivating a feature but now they can't upload any document, If I create a permission set to allow them to upload documents, they will see all other documents as well which are not shared with them.
Any suggestions?

Hi Sharaqat, the best way to handle your situation is to have a separate library or site for the client. You could use item level permissions per Thilosh, but fine-grained permissions become a major headache. You could also use web parts and audience
targeting, but that's not truly secure.
cameron rautmann
I am thinking to have a separate document library for client, where they can upload/view/edit etc, we will upload documents in a "secure" library with a column saying this is a private document or public document, if we mark a document public,
a workflow will move that document to the client's document library. I don't think there would be a problem to move a document from 1 library to another in a workflow.
That's the easiest solution I have found so far.

How to view hidden user files and reset permissions

I am having difficulties getting the hidden files to appear first of all. I have tried a couple of different things that have been suggested in other posts. And I would really like a point in the right direction to find information on resetting permissions. Thanks in advance for any help.

To view hidden files, I use a third party program called Desktop Utility, takes only a few seconds to activate and have them shown. Quick and easy.

Resetting Permissions info and How TO;
http://osxdaily.com/2011/11/15/repair-user-permissions-in-mac-os-x-lion/
When you use the Disk Utility app and Repair Permissions — it doesn’t actually repair the permission settings on folders and files in your Home folder where your documents and personal applications reside.
There is an additional Repair Permissions application utility hidden away. This tool is located inside boot Repair Utilities. Here’s how to access it.
Restart Lion and hold down the Command and R keys.
You will boot into the Repair Utilities screen. On top, in the Menu Bar click the Utilities item then select Terminal.
In the Terminal window, type resetpassword and hit Return.
The Password reset utility launches, but you’re not going to reset the password. Instead, click on the icon for your Mac’s hard drive at the top. From the drop-down below it, select the user account where you are having issues.
At the bottom of the window, you’ll see an area labeled ‘Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs’. Click the Reset button there.

JPDK and Viewing portal pages?

Windows 2000
Hi All!
I installed the Oracle app server 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2 and got the Oracle portal 3.0.9.8.2 up and running on my local machine.
I can access portal page on my machine, giving url path
http://mylocalIP/pls I sign-on and view the portal30 page.
Question:
I have written sample portlets sample1.jsp, sample2.jsp. I want both portlets to appear on same jsp page. and I be able to view these portlets in my locally installed portal.
Please can anyone guide me what are the steps that i should take to achieve this.?
1>Which directory would I keep these .jsp pages in my local machine?
2>Where(directory) would I keep my provider.xml. what would be the structure of xml file in order to achieve above?
3>what url can I give to view these portal pages? Mine signon is portal30 portal30
4>Can I also use the latest JPDK API to write portlet pages(keeping current 9iAS version same?) If yes where do I have to install the jar files of latest JPDK. I mean the classpath location so my pages can use those APIS, without giving "ClassNotFoundException".
5>What else do I have to do?
regards,
sa pa

If you are new to the concept of providers and portlets then the
link http://portalstudio.oracle.com/servlet/page?_pageid=827&_dad=ops&_schema=OPSTUDIO
will serve as a good starting point.
To answer your specific questions, first of all JPDK needs to be
installed. It can be downloaded from
http://otn.oracle.com/software/htdocs/devlic.html?http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/PDK.zip
Other reference information such as Installation instructions
and how to create basic pdk samples can be obtained from

Hope it hepls.

Grainy view of menus and dock

Recently the menu bars, pull-down menus and dock icons have all taken on a grainy (pixelated?) and transparent quality on my PowerBook G4 display. This effect also applies to any file or program icons on my desktop.
In addition, the cursor has occasionally a 1"x1" square of dots/dashes that follow it around and cannot be deleted or trashed.
This may have happened after the latest software update for OS X.
Should I take this in for repair, or is there something else I can do?

Hello
Have you tried to check your display settings???
System Preferences > Display - on the first tab there is a 'colours' menu - make sure this is set to the highest setting (Millions)
I had this issue - I was playing a game that reset the screen to 'Thousands' making everything look grainy and of a poor quality
hope this helps

Strange Menus and Currupt File Systems? Help!

I recently replaced my ibook's HD with a new one, every thing has been fine until just recently. Mysteriously on my control click menus and other pop up windows like save and open, all system text has turned into code. use the following url for an example http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/whatapileof/menu.jpg . The text is now N21 and things like that. Any ideas? When i tried to do a HD repair in disc utility, the permissions are fine but when i repair the disc it fails each time. I have tried to reinstall the OS but that also fails. I am guessing that the menu text and this repair issue are hand-in-hand. Only thing i can think of is doing a re-format. There’s no other issues that i can spot and the problem is bearable. Im used to doing reformats with windows. never thought i would have to with OSX though. Any ideas how to avoid?? Cheers.
(This message was previously in the ibook section of the discussion, no one could really help so i have moved it to a more viewed section. Dan)

As the error is on the system drive i have used the install dvd of 10.4 and used disc utility from that menu to repair the disc. The only error message displayed says only "disc unable to be repaired" and when you re-install the OS without reformatting it states "Mac OS X cannot be installed." and makes you restart. I havnt tried fsck. Do you recommend still trying it? can you remind me how to get to the command line whilst OS X is booting up. I haven’t moded the OS nor installed any haxies. I didn't notice any changes until a few days after i installed the last peace of software which i believe was the new version of firefox and i cant think of a time where the computer had incorrectly shut down or malfunctioned. Might as well face it, i'm going to have to re-format and reinstall.
Thanks for the help

Firefox is slow to load and view pages and repeated "Firefox is not responding" message

Firefox is quite slow to load and view pages with and I keep getting the "Firefox is not responding" message.
I have the latest version, plus the latest Adobe Flash Player, Shockwave Player, etc.

Note that Firefox 36 has been released officially.
*https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/36.0/releasenotes/
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

My pulldown menus and bookmarks have disappeared. How do I get them back?

Today, without doing anything to the browser, Firefox's pulldown menus and my bookmarks have all disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back. I still have the icons for the basic tools, like the home page, but all the regular pulldowns, which I use frequently, are gone. Any ideas?
I have already downloaded the newest version of Firefox to see if this would work and it did not. Anybody?

If ALL your menus have disappeared, press F11 (you may have to hit the Fn key simultaneously). If only one or two of the menu bars have disappeared, hit F10 (again, Fn key may also be needed, depending on your settings). This will bring the menu bars back temporarily--until you click on something else on the screen. While they are showing, hit View/Toolbars and check whichever menu bars you wish to appear. Unless you have a deeper issue, this should fix the problem.

Image Capture from iPhone to OS X and File Permissions

Hello. I'm running Lion 10.7.3 and have an iPhone 4S and iPad 2. When I use the Image Capture app to transfer pictures and videos from my devices to OS X it works great with the exception of one problem. Every file that it copies over ends up with permissions of:
(Me): Read & Write
everyone: No Access
This is problematic because when my wife is logged into her profile or anyone else tries to view these files via shared folders, they can't see them. I'm putting them into a folder I created on "Macintosh HD". The folder that they are in has permission of:
(Me): Read & Write
wheel: Read only
everyone: Read only
Each time I import I suppose I could drop into Terminal and run a command to fix the issues but there must be a better way.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

Got a solution using Automator.
Create a workflow like:
This is an Image Capture Plugin. When you open Automator select Image Capture as the type of workflow and select these two actions.
Copy Finder Items will take the image from Image Capture and copy to your disk. Select the folder you want the image to go to in the To: pulldown. You should select the /Users/Shared folder and any subfolder you wish. I made a folder named Images.
In the second action make sure Pass Input: is set to as arguments and then add the chmod 644
Then exit Automator giving the workflow a name. In Image Capture you should see the workflow you just created
in the Import To: pulldown. Select it. Now when you import the fiels wil be copied to the folder you specified and the permissions will be set to 644 rw for you r for everyone else.
good luck. post back if you have any questions.
(and this is in the Lion list so my question about Aperture above is meaningless! )

Menus and Fonts too small with Panasonic HDTV

I just hooked up a new Mini (Intel chip) to my Panasonic HDTV-- 34" Model No. CT-34WX53-- using a DVI cable. The desktop shows up fine, but the menus and fonts are so tiny that I can't read them. When I try using Front Row, the pictures and vide are gorgeous and the fonts in Front Row are fine. It's just the fonts and menus in on the desktop and in other programs that are too small. Does anyone know how to fix?

Edward,
That's the price of having a gazillion pixels!
You have two options - send less pixels to the display or change each application (Including the finder) to show larger fonts and icons.
The lower the resolution option is easy and fast. The downside of "zoom"-ing the display is it may look blocky at certain resolutions and the fonts and fine details in photos and movies may be lost if the mac has to alias or scale the video. If you do this - you might want to enable the menu bar item for display preferences to quickly switch between the setting you prefer. I use one setting for actually using the mac and another setting for playing movies and showing slides in FrontRow.
The change the preferences to make the fonts and icons larger is more of a pain but yields the most crisp display and you don't have to change things up. I would start with Finder Preferences (select an icon on your desktop and on the View menu - show view options - crank up the icon size and font size.) Unfortunately - you have to do this in each application you use. It also won't change the menu font sizes - you might need an "extension" from a developer to change that.

How to generate auto incremented ID using a user who has create,view permissions only

Hi
i am using the builtin ID
field to achieve generate sequence no in a list
every time a new item created in list
for this i used update list item action in workflow, its working fine but
i have a problem here user who login into sharepoint site and create a new list item
has only Create ,View Permissions only,
i created a Requesters permissions level with (Create,view ) rights only i did not added Edit Rights
because this user only create list items only he will not edit the list item.
adil

Hello adil,
If user is having "Add Items" rights then item ID should be created automatically and this is auto generate column in list.
Why you are using "update list item action"? Are you updating any other field?
If updating any other column value then add Impersonation steps in your code to update item.

Text missing in menus and programs

Last night I tried to start Safari and it would not start, the computer was acting odd so I restarted. Now, the font is different, on the desktop icons and across the top of the page. Safari won't start, if you start mail, there is no text anywhere. If you select the apple menu, or file menu, or any of the menus for that matter... no text anywhere! Help!
mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Launch Disk Utility and repair permissions. Restart. If that doesn't fix things, two other things to try. 1) create another admin user account, log into it, and see if the problem's gone. If so, problem's in original account, usually corrupted/conflicted preferences. If not, log back into original account, delete new account, and reapply 10.4.9 COMBO update. Post the results.

How to set NTFS and share permissions for Users share for home directories in Server 2012

I have a new Server 2012 server, and I want to set up a Users share, that will contain subfolders of each user's username and contain their home directory. But what do I set the share and NTFS permissions as on the root level, lets call the folder
Users? Is the following older article the correct permissions I need?

Hi RJO22,
You can choose configure the Folder Redirection, Folder Redirection enables you to redirect the location of specific folders within user profiles to a new location, such as
a shared network location. Folder redirection is used in the process of administering user profiles and roaming user profiles. You can configure Folder Redirection using the Group Policy Management Console to redirect specific user profile folders, as well
as edit Folder Redirection policy settings.
