Possible bug in configuration of Membership Provider (ODT 11.1.0.5.10 beta)

The Oracle Membership Provider would not allow me to set the minRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters via the web.config.
When I tried to set the "minRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters" property for the Oracle Membership file via web.config, I got the following error when running the ASP.net Web Site Administration Tool:
"The specified attribute minRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters was no recognized. (D:\Documents\CAL\Web\web.config line 112)"

Have you tried the 11.1.0.6.20 release? This issue should have been fixed.
Attribute names are case-sensitive. As you are aware, by Microsoft's naming convention that all attribute names are identical to property names except the first letter becomes lower-case. But there is an exception.
Property Name:
MinRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters
Attribute Name: supposedly
minRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters
But no!
It's minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters !
The "A" in "Alphanumeric" becomes "a" as well.
I don't know why Microsoft makes such an exception. But the Membership provider in Oracle Providers for ASP.NET (11.1.0.6.20) is now following this exception.

Cannot get Membership Provider with name RoleProvider. The membership provider for this process was not properly configured. You must configure the membership provider in the .config file for every SharePoint process.

I am trying to create a web application that uses AD LDS as its authentication provider. I have followed all the steps and verified all the web.config files, but I receive the error below:
Cannot get Membership Provider with name CustomRoleProvider. The membership provider for this process was not properly configured. You must configure the membership provider in the .config file for every SharePoint process.
Has anyone come across this error before?

There seems to be some issues in your web.config files. Please make sure your Web application entries for membership and role provider(at central admin site) are matching with Web.config entries. your error
"Cannot get Membership Provider with name CustomRoleProvider.
", indicating that you may have used role provider name in Membership provider text box or in web.config.
Also please make sure that you have correct entries in all 3 web.config files - Central Administration , Security Token Service (STS), Web application .

Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

Hello,
I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities. Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format. Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction. I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request - save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
Paul

Hello,
I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
Thanks again for any help related to this issue. If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks!
Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

Possible bug? formatted number 0 displays as 4,294,967,295

This is really two questions in one. First, I have a routine
that sometimes provides a result of 0, which is *sometimes*
displayed in an AdvancedDataGrid column as 4,294,967,295, which I'm
assuming is somehow a meaningful number (largest int?). Anyway, I
have an ADG with a column defined as:
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Remaining work"
labelFunction="rem_work_fmt" textAlign="right" />
The labelFunction called is shown below:
private function rem_work_fmt(item:Object,
column:AdvancedDataGridColumn):String
var num:String =
numberFormatter.format(item.get_remaining_work());
trace ("result: " + num);
return num;
The trace output prints: "result: 0" as expected, but the
number displayed in the grid is sometimes 0 and sometimes
4,294,967,295.
More weirdness, this only happens to the last column in the
ADG. I call the same format logic on a different column and have
never seen the wrong result. Also, the same underlying function
"get_remaining_work()" is called elsewhere on the same data and the
result is correctly displayed in a text field as 0.
Second question, I've run into some other possible bugs,
which I haven't reported because I found a work around. How does
one do that in the beta program?

Possible Bug: Migrating 6.1 to 7.0 - Uninstall of 6.1 removes 7.0 services

This is a report of a possible bug. We are migrating from 6.1 to 7.0u2. On our Admin Node, we finished migrating multiple instances from 6.1 to 7.0 so we went uninstalled the 6.1 server components. This uninstall process removed the 7.0u2 services though not the instances from the Admin Node. The configuration folders in the 7.0 folder were not removed so we were able to delete then redeploy the instance. Note that the service name in 6.1 was the same as the service name in 7.0 (e.g. https-xyz). However, we had already used the 6.1 Administration Server to remove each individual 6.1 server prior to migrating the configuration to 7.0.

sriram.natarajan wrote:
hi
what do you mean by "removed the services" but not the instances ? The uninstaller for the "Sun ONE" web server removed the Windows Services for the multiple instances that I created for the "Sun Java System" web server.
If I am not mistaken, you probably didn't completely go through the migration log to make sure that what is migrated and what is not. please note that as part of migration all static content files and some other data files are not migrated. you are required to look into the migration log and make sure that you manually move those files into 7.0 location once the automated migration completes successfully. so, if you removed the 6.0 without migrating those static files , then you might see a whole bunch of 404 and other weird errors. Static content files have nothing to do with what I'm talking about. I had a 6.1 installation with a number of "servers" (what 7.0 calls instances). In order to migrate and keep the same service name (e.g. https-xyz), I had to first make a copy of the https-xyz configuration directory, use the 6.1 admin to remove the https-xyz (this would remove the https-xyz service), recopy the https-xyz configuration directory to the 6.1 install directory, then proceed with the automated migration.
for more information, on what is migrated and what not, please refer to
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2201/gbhfb?l=en&a=view
also ,please refer to the next link on the above pages related to 'files requiring manual migration'Once all my 6.1 instance migrations were complete and all that was left running from 6.1 was the Administration Server, I used the "Add/Remove Programs" control panel to uninstall the "Sun ONE Web Server 6.1" program. This uninstall process removed the Windows services created for the "Sun Java System" web server but did not remove the instances from the "Configuration Store" for the new web server.
Unfortunately, the bug that I am reporting above has nothing to do with "a whole bunch of 404 and other weird errors. "

Are you aware of a possible bug in version 3.6.23? In the browser, for example, "two/" appears with the slash through the "o". Is this a known bug?

Are you aware of a possible bug in version 3.6.23? In the browser, for example, "two/" appears with the slash through the "o". Is this a known bug?
When the same text is view in another browsers it appears correctly as "two/".
I've checked, and the same problem appears in Firefox on another computer.
The two answers received so far have not provided an answer: is this a known bug in Firefox?
Thank you.

You are on a Mac and that is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning kerning] problem. Don't you see the same problem in other applications if you choose the same font, font-weight and font-size.
I only find one other kerning [https://support.mozilla.com/questions/789254 question] here -- it is marked unsolved. I find it strange that Firefox got involved with this at all rather than leaving such things to the operating system and font metrics.
Does the problem go away with "command+0" (zero) which resets [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages zoom level] to normal. If you mess with the font sizes in your preferences because you want larger print that would have the same effect.
Also found this one recently reported for [https://support.mozilla.com/questions/892222 Firefox 7 in ubuntu 11.04] which appears much worse. If it involves Firefox and specific operating systems it becomes a lot harder to diagnose who or what is responsible.

Possible Bug In Apex 4.0.2

Hi Everyone.
I would like to report what I think is a bug in Apex 4.0.2.
If you go to my workspace on apex.oracle.com:
Workspace = EEG
Username = [email protected]
Password = galaxy (all lowercase)
Run the application: 37796 - Elie_Various_Goodies [no credentials are required]
This app was imported from my 4.0.1 workspace at my job. On the page I created two Date Picker items, P1_BEGIN_DATE and P1_END_DATE. I set them up so that whenever a user selects a begin date, a dynamic action "MANAGE_DATES" fires and automatically sets P1_END_DATE to this selected begin date value. Now when a user goes to select an end date, the displayed calendar starts at the previously selected begin date rather than the default of "Today".
All of this worked fine on my office (4.0.1) workspace. However, after exporting this app and then importing onto apex.oracle.com, none of this functionality would work. Even worse, whenever I try to select a begin date or even an end date, the selected dates never make it into the date picker fields. Displaying the "Session" window shows these fields as empty.
It was only after I copied the two date picker fields and also re-created my dynamic action (P1_BEGIN_DATE2, P1_END_DATE2, MANAGE_DATES) did my functionality return.
This behavior is quite strange. I can only think this is some sort of bug attributed to the export/import process when exporting a 4.0.1 app into a 4.0.2 workspace. I am not sure if this bizarre behavior happens with non-date picker items. Nor am I sure if this beavior would be repeated if I export/import from 4.0.2 into the another 4.0.2 environment.
Another strange thing I noticed. If I change my date picker items to be "date picker (classic)" type items, the dynamic action does not work at all. This is true in both 4.0.2 and 4.0.1. I'm not sure if this a bug or not. It could be that the classic date picker is just not "javascript" enabled so to speak. If that is true, then it would have been nice if the docs would have warned us about this.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
Thank you.
Elie

Hi Joel.
First let me thank you for the warning about allowing "everyone" access to my workspace.
You're correct, of course. Anyone could destroy anything within my workspace. I guess I was too trusting especially as I have seen many posts on the Forum where others have given access to their workspace so that responders can offer help. I really should be more discreet about this. Again, thank you. Needless to say, I have changed my password.
With respect to the possible bug, the MANAGE_DATES dynamic action is intended to be a submit page because that is the only way I can see to get BOTH the P1_END_DATE date picker item as well as the end date textual field to be assigned the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE. I tried to use a dynamic action in which javascript sets the value of the end date textual field to the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE value. This works without the need to submit the page. Unfortunately, this does not cause the P1_END_DATE date picker item to default to this value. Instead, the default remains at today's date. This is why I finally resorted to a dynamic action that submits the page whenever a new value is selected (that is, a "change" event) from the P1_BEGIN_DATE date picker item.
All of this works in my office 4.0.1 environment. However, I was puzzled when this fails under 4.0.2 on the hosted web site at apex.oracle.com. This is why I posted a "possible" bug in 4.0.2.
I hope this all makes sense.
One more thing, as already mentioned in my original post, this "defaulting a date picker" functionality does NOT work at all for the "classic" date picker items in both 4.0.1 nor in 4.0.2. I realize one can implement this functionality (I' guessing) my using, say, a "onChange" javascript call to submit the page. It's just funny that the "classic" date picker items are not acted upon by the dynamic action MANAGE_DATES that submits the page.
Thank you.
Elie

Using Data-Dependent Routing in combination with Membership provider

Hi there!
Currently we have two Web applications running on azure using a single SQL database. We are experiencing problems with performance because we are using only one database. We are investigating some solutions like documentDB and elastic scale.
DocumentDb seems like a really good option for us because it looks like it can be implemented easily and we know just what to do.
With elastic scale on the other hand we have to figure out what our options are. We are using a membership provider for our users to login in one of the two applications. The other web applications does not use a membershipprovider, it does not use a login
system at all.
in the backend of our code we determine a subscription_id for both applications to retrieve tenant data.
I think we have a few options here
1. to keep using the membershipprovider we could create a database just for the login mechanism so we can determine the subscription_id, and with that subscription_id we can use Data-Dependent Routing to retrieve the correct data from the correct shard.
2. We can add extra columns to the Shard Map Manager database (i think i've read that it's not supposed to be used for user data) like username and password so we can login through this database.
Does anyone has better options than the options mentioned before and can anyone give me advise on how we should deal with these issues?
Thanks!

Elmar --
The best approach would be to maintain the Membership DB in a separate Azure SQL database. Then you could shard your transaction details across an Elastic Scale set of databases based on the subscription ID. (The Shard Map Manager
database is not designed to be extended with additional columns, and Elastic Scale works by caching that Shard Map data in the client application anyway, and those in-memory structures can't be changed).
You would use an ordinary ADO.Net connection to query membership for a Subscription ID, and then get an appropriate shard-specific connection using the Elastic Scale GetOpenConnectionForKey method, passing the subscription ID retrieved from
the membership query.

1390717.1 - 12c Cloud Control Agent: Is it possible to Re-configure ...

Can anyone get to this note "1390717.1: 12c Cloud Control Agent: Is it possible to Re-configure a 12c Agent to a Different 12c OMS Without Re-installation?"
I do a search in Metalink and I see it listed in "How to Point a 10g/11g Grid Agent to a Different Grid Control OMS and Repository without Re-installation? [ID 413228.1]" but that is the only doc a search returns.
I have a test environment with agents pointed to an old OMS 12c. I'd like to utilize the same agents but point them to our new, production, OEM 12c environment. Has anyone had any success with this? I've followed the 10g/11g OEM steps without luck, thus far (early testing).
I was excited to see "emctl switchOMS REPOSITORY_URL" in the emctl options until I read the next line...
This command is not supported.
Drat :-)

Possible bug: Saving array with extended and double precision to spreadsheet

If one concatenates a double precision array and an extended precision array with the "build array" vi and then saves using "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi any digits to the right of the decimal place are set to zero in the saved file. This happens regardless of the format signifier input (e.g. %.10f) to the "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi.
I am on Vista Ultimate 32 bit and labview 9.0
This is a possible bug that is easily circumvented by converting to one type before combining arrar to a spreadsheet. Nonetheless, it is a bug and it cost me some time.
Solved!

Spreadsheet save bug.vi ‏9 KB

Hi JL,
no, it's not a bug - it's a feature
Well, if you would look more closely you would recognize the "Save to Spreadsheet" as polymorphic VI. As this polymorphic VI doesn't support EXT numbers internally (it only supports DBL, I64 and String) LabVIEW chooses the instance with most accuracy: I64 (I64 has 64 bits precision, DBL only 53...). So your options are:
- set the instance to use as DBL (by right-click and "Select type...")
- make a copy of this VI, save it with a different name and make it support EXT numbers (don't rework the polymorphic VI as you would break compatibility with other LV installations or future revisions)
And yes, those coercion dots always signal some conversions - you should atleast check what's going on there...

A possible *bug* in java jcombobox

Hi all,
I think i found a possible bug in java jcombobox .. i am sure some of you must have already experienced it..
supposedly you put a jcombobox in a jpanel
returned the panel from a method to a calling method..
and that method adds it to another panel that it had created to a frame..
and if this happens dynamicaly at runtime, as only after u click a button..
meaning : without adding the combobox or the immediate parent panelto the contentpane .. directly..
Then,
your combox's keylistener may not catch events fired.
.. this has happened to me many times.. and always i could only find a way out
.. by adding the combobox to panel that is loaded during startup itself and is
.. not returned through a method call.
Your opinions please ?
'Harish.

All components in a UI are created at run-time.
When you create your JFrame you call pack() to align and resize the UI. This validates all the components, and sets the default focus on what ever component should have the focus at start up.
When you create components and add them as children of another component you have to validate the child and parent. This can be done by calling JComponent.validate()
As for keylisteners not getting called, this might be fixed if you call grabFocus on the new combobox. I can't see a reason why any listener would stop working.
For me to really understand what your talking about. I'd need to see source code reproducing this problem.

Benefit of SharePoint 2013 sql server membership provider

Hi All, Please share your thoughts for this..
We are working with SharePoint 2013 public facing website with Form based authentication. Anyone can register and start using our site. We are storing
all the user related data in Active directory. As of now we are having around 25000 users in our portal . We are planning to move all external user information from AD to SQL membership table. Could you please suggest me to benefit of using SQL membership
instead AD

performance-wise, they're pretty similar either way (given a single dedicated role server).
security-wise, compared to SQL, AD makes some data easier to access (since LDAP queries can expose data to any user), but harder to hack (obtain copy of hashed passwords)
As far as management, there is NO management interface for the SQL membership provider... including USERS (reset password, lock/unlock account, etc), not just groups.
As far as SSO technology, SqlMembershipProvider is absolutely NOT an SSO technology. Not to say that it can't be used for logins, but authentication and single sign-on are two very different goals.
I would also argue that since you can't decrypt the AD passwords, the move to SQL is going to be a little difficult for users.
And, have you considered adding another AD server instead? With a little bit of fiddling around, you can add a dedicated AD server and prioritize SP authentication requests where you want.

Forms based authentication in sharepoint 2013 using custom membership provider

I am developing FBA for SP2013 using custom membership provider using the following link
http://benredl.wordpress.com/2012/10/03/creating-forms-based-authentication-and-user-profiles-in-sharepoint-2013-using-custom-membership-and-role-providers-and-a-custom-user-profile-synchronization-utility/
the feature i am trying to develop is that the user is created using a homegrown asp.net application which uses sql server
and then When that user goes to SP2013 he should be able to login with the username and password created using the homegrown asp.net application
my questions are following
If I follow the article in the link should i be taking the assembly(dll) and deploying it to GAC or will VS2013 automatically do it
Do I have to implement FindUserByEmail and FindUserByName methods ?
if the connectionstring for an asp.net application is in the web.config file where would the connection for the sqlserver go if this application is for SharePoint
TIA

Why do we need to specify Role baseprovider and membership provider in Central Admin and security config files?

Hi,
why do we need to specify role base provider and membership provider files in central admin and securiy config files.
thanks,
gaurav

We use 3 settings in Forms based auth:
1 Membership = This contains Users and groups information. (This table also has username and password)
2 ConnectionString = Connetion details to connect to database is stored here(servername, databasename, username, password, port )
3 Role = This table contains all the Roles (Admin, contibutor, etc of the data source)
