Problem submitting PDF via HTTPS

I'm an Adobe Acrobat newbie, and am having issues submitting a PDF form to an HTTPS server. My basic setup is as follows:
1) PDF Form with one text field and a single submit button pointing to a https URL. The button submits in the XDP format.
2) A server which can only be accessed through SSL and has a valid SSL certificate
I get the following error when I hit the submit button in Adobe Reader 9:
"An error has occurred during the submit process. The server has an invalid SSL certificate."
I tried the following:
1) Adding the SSL certificate to the Manage Trusted Identities, and pressing the submit button. Same error.
2) After installing the certificate, going to Edit -> Preferences -> Security -> Advanced Preferences, and checking the box for Enable searching the Windows Certificate store for certificates other than your own. Same error.
I've tested the servlet by posting through a .NET application and it works fine. Am I missing something here?

I've fixed this problem. Turns out my windows certificate store didn't have the Root certificate for my website added in it. I just found the root certificate online and installed it into the "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" store in windows. I then went to Edit -> Preferences -> Security -> Advanced Preferences, and checked the box for Enable searching the Windows Certificate store. Works like a charm now.

Problems Submitting PDF Forms via Adobe Reader XI?

Hi,
I have used Acrobat Pro (Versions 9/X and XI) to successfully create fillable PDF forms. I distributed the forms to a server via Acrobat, then set up a hyperlink to the form's location for my users. The users were able to fill the form and submit it. I was able to manage the submitted form data via Adobe Tracker. Recently, many of my users have been updated to Acrobat Reader XI. Now, some of these same users (who have successfully submitted these forms in the past - before the latest upgrade) can no longer submit the form data! If a user fills the form and clicks submit, it appears to that user that the form was successfully submitted, but no data appears in Adobe Tracker, even after refreshing... What would cause this??
Thank you!

What is your operating system? What is your Reader XI version? What exactly means "cannot"?

Problem submitting RFEBKA00 via Job

Hi experts
I have a requirement to create a Z program to upload 3 different files by using RFEBKA00.
For this purpouse, I have created a Z program which creates 3 Z jobs (ZA, ZB, ZC one per file) using JOB_OPEN / SUBMIT program VIA JOB / JOB_CLOSE.
Once every job is finished, I need to read logs using BP_JOBLOG_READ,and if there are no errors, move files to other folder.
My questions are:
1.- When using JOB_OPEN and SUBMIT VIA JOB name NUMBER n, as far as I know n is the number returned by jobcount parameter from JOB_OPEN and should be the same for both jobs (the Zjob created by JOB_OPEN and the one created by program RFEBKA00).When I debbug the program, it is OK, but when accessing table TBTCO sometimes there are 2 different jobcounts. Seems that jobcount is created based on sy-uzeit and sometimes there is some delay between JOB_OPEN and SUBMIT. Is there any way to ensure both jobs have the same jobcount?.
2.- As I need to read the log for each file, and because of the fact that the job created by submitting RFEBKA00 has always the same name, if the answer to my first question is NO, how can I link each of my Z jobs with its corresponding RFEBKA00 job?.
Many thanks in advance for your answers.
BR,
Carlos.

Hi Thomas
Thanks for your answer.
For your first question, there is not BD key problem beacuse of my job is ZJOB and the one created when doing submit via job is RFEBKA00-EXTR.CTA.EL. (standard job) have different names.
But job number should be the same, because I'm using JOB_OPEN (which return the job number in parameter jobcount) and SUBMIT VIA JOB .
For the second question, and based on SAP documentation about SUBMIT , when submitting a program vía job, the submitted program is executed as a background task, which means creating a new job, so the answers is yes, the standard program schedules a new job.

LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Submitting .pdf via E-mail

Hi all,
I've been working on this form for months now. I know this topic has been started a thousand times already, but after weeks of experimenting with the javascript functions I am losing my patience.
My form needs a "Submit" button that does the following:
1. Attachs the entire .pdf to an e-mail
2. Pulls data from two form fields and places it into the subject line
The code is attached to a regular submit button:
----- form1.#subform[0].Button1::click: - (JavaScript, client) -------------------------------------
//Create a variable to hold the document object
var oDoc = event.target;
oDoc.mailDoc({
bUI: true,
cTo: "[email protected]",
cCC: "[email protected]",
cSubject: cSubject: " " + StudentLastName.rawValue + " " + EmployeeID.rawValue + ". Student Action Request Form."});
The button does not open an e-mail client in Reader 9, Professional 8, or in the Livecycle Preview.
Thanks,
csteward

Hi,
This is what we are using:
var vEmail = toEmail.rawValue;
var vSubject = subjectLine.rawValue;
var vBody = messageLine.rawValue;
if (vEmail != null && vSubject != null && vBody != null)
     event.target.app.mailMsg({
     bUI: true,
     cTo: vEmail,
     cSubject: vSubject,
     cMsg: vBody
else
     app.alert("Please provide information above before sending email!");
Sample here: https://acrobat.com/#d=0T85TMIsVEJd4XKsPLq7Fg
Hope that helps,

Problem submitting PDF form in WorkSpace

Hi, my server is ES2.5 Turnkey install (Express mode) on Windows.
Client is IE-8 with latest Reader.
My form is a PDF form created in the WorkBench,
it has 2 pages, with some Digital Signature fields,
I have also added the "Process Fields" group onto page 2 of the form.
The form is to be routed in the standard WorkSpace.
At the Initiator step (Start Point), I use the Action Profile to do the Pre-fill of the form.
I have checked the Reader Extended box.
I use a Document variable as the Output from the StartPoint, the doc variable references my .PDF form template.
Everything works fine at the Initiator step, the form fields are all properly Pre-filled.
The problem is:
after I click the Complete button, it goes to the next participant of the workflow process,
when that person opens up the form in the WorkSpace, it's all blank, none of the data at the Initiator step show up.
This User task uses the same Document variable as the Input (specified at the Presentation & Data tab).
What do I need to do to pass the form data along with the form to the next person in the Process?
What have I done wrong? what should I check?
thanks.

I sort of narrowed down the problem a little bit.
I created a smaller PDF form, it has Digital Signature field as well as the Process Fields group, plus some Text fields. When I used it in the SAME process (changed the Document variable to point to this new small form of course) everything worked! No data loss. Everything on the form including the Signature got passed to the next person in the workflow just fine.
So I think my Process design is fine, the problem appears to be in the original 2-page PDF form.
But I can't figure out what thing on the form could have caused the data loss!
There's no error message anywhere, nothing in the JBoss server log either.
Has anybody seen similar problem like this?
thanks.

Problem accessing VIP via HTTP from service servers

I thought I had a pretty simple config on my CSS11501- but have run into an issue I'm having trouble resolving.
I have two unix webservers (IPs are .99 and .100) on ports e1 and e2, and my uplink for the CSS is on port e8.
The CSS has a VIP address (.105) that load balances HTTP requests to .99 and .100.
From .99 and .100 I can ping the VIP address - and from outside the CSS - almost everything works great for the site I'm hosting on .105.
I do have two web pages however that attempt to make calls directly to the VIP address - I noticed I can't load those pages.
Nor can I just browse the website on the VIP address from either of the servers. The webservers can browse their own pages via IP, and each other's pages via IP.
Just not pages on the VIP.
I think it may be a case of the servers thinking that IP spoofing is occurring - or maybe I missed something simple in the config.
Here's what I see in a 'show flows' when I try and browse the VIp address (.105) from the .100 server.
Src Address SPort Dst Address DPort NAT Dst Address Prt InPort OutPort
65.207.212.100 53758 65.207.212.105 80 65.207.212.100 TCP e2 e2
65.207.212.100 80 65.207.212.100 53758 65.207.212.100 TCP e2 e2
Since it appears that the CSS NATs the request to the same IP the server is using, will the reply from the server ever make it back to the CSS?
Or does it think that it shouldn't need to reply - becauuse it is that IP?
Should I be able to browse the VIP site from the webservers.
Below is the full CSS config if someone can help me figure this out.
Thanks in advnace for any and all help.

Paul,
simple config and well-know basic mistake :-)
If a server tries to access the vip, the css will forward the request to the same server or the other one.
Both ways, the response from the server will go directly to the client-server, bypassing the CSS.
For this to work, you need to do client nat so the server making the HTTP connection appears to be coming from the CSS.
Create a group like this
group servernat
vip addr 65.207.212.105
active
and add the following to your acl
clause 5 permit any 65.207.212.99 destination content www/rule1 sourcegroup servernet
Do a similar clause for the 2nd server.
re-apply the acl.
Everything should work now.
Gilles.
Thanks for rating.

Problem submitting pdf form in Indesign CS6

I've designed a form in Indesign CS6 (trial version) and added the submit button with a mailto email address as in the tutorials etc. I have opened it in Adobe Acrobate 10 and extended the forms functionality to Adobe Reader.
When opened online and the submit button is clicked, a box opens asking which option which best describes how you send email. After selecting Outlook my email client opens with the message 'Form returned; sample_form.pdf attached. the attached file is the filled-out form. Please open it to retrieve the data'. Just above the message bar states 'this message has not been sent'.
I've also downloaded the Michael Jarott tutorial which I cannot get to send either.

Thanks for all your suggestions. Unfortunately the form still returns the 'no matches found for [email protected]' I've changed the URL field on the submit button to mailto: xxxxx@xxxx and I've also tried it with no space after the mailto:, unfortunately both these return the above error message. This is the same whatever email address I try. I'm starting to tear my hair out with this one. I've tried it on my home PC arunning Norton Internet Security and on my works PC running Avast. Same problem on both.

Submitting pdf via email

I have a form that is submitting a pdf through email. Usage rights are enabled. When I hit submit I get an error. The operation failed. Any ideas?

You do not have MAPI active on your system. Acrobat uses MAPI to access your e-mail client. Since this is client dependent, it is a risky way to distribute a form.

Problems submitting order via iphoto

Hi,

Internet, email, itunes, account everything ok. security - firewall ok. husband is having same comp. and no problems with his or my account when ordering prints, calendars or books. on my computer its seems impossible. ilife 08 already removed and reinstalled, problem stays the same. helpdesk till now unable to help me.

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)

Submitting a PDF form via HTTP Post: Beginner's Questions

Hi,
I am completely new to PDF forms, so I have been finding the documentation and options overwhelming.
I am hoping to get pointed to the documentation/tutorials/examples I really need.
I would like to build a "proof of concept" for my boss. I would like to include a screen in our Java ( JSP & Spring ) webapp where either a PDF form is embedded or is accessed via a link.
I have
Adobe Acrobat Distiller X standard license
Adobe Acrobat X Standard
Microsoft Office 2010
I made a small, 3 field Microsoft Word form. I then converted it via DIstiller into a PDF form.
I then found this document about how to submit a PDF form to a server side component:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-demystified
My big problem with this document it doesn't have an example nor an example showing what is going on in a full HTML page. As I result I have some questions:
Can I see such an example somewhere?
Does the call to the javascript function doc.SubmitForm(urlToMyServerSideComponent) go in a script tag on the HTML page like other javascripts?
Can I execute that submit function from an HTML button or do I need to put a "submit" button on the PDF form?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle in order to create a PDF form with a "submit" button? Free versions?
Can I send via HTTP POST ?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to crate a PDF form with a digital signature?
Is there a document/tutorial that fits where I am starting off from? ( Please no books, I am tyring to show my boss that this is something that can be done, in a reasonable amount of time, not time to get and go through a book ).
Thanks in advance for any tips that get me pointed in the right direction
Steve

To answer some of your specific questions:
2, 3. The submit form button needs to be on the PDF. You can either configure a Submit Form action or use the submitForm JavaScript method.
4, 6: No to both questions. You can create the form in Acrobat. Such forms are knows as Acroforms, as opposed to XFA forms that are created with LiveCycle Designer. Acroforms have wider support.
5: Yes, that's the method that's used when submitting to a web server. You have your choice of formats. The "HTML Form" option causes the form data to be submitted in the same format as an HTML form, so the same type of server-side code can be used to process the data. As Dave's tutorial shows, the server should return an FDF as the response, however, as opposed to HTML content.
It's a mistake to try to embed the PDF in a web page. So much depends on the user's browser, PDF viewer, and how both are configured. PDF forms can be submitted directly from Adobe Reader/Acrobat, so it's not necessary for them to be viewed in a browser. Note that Adobe Reader for iOS/Android don't yet support submitting to a web server (apart from FormsCentral), but that's is supposedly being worked on.
Since you mentioned digital signatures, be aware that for Reader users to be able to sign, the document has to be Reader-enabled, either with Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is not the same as LiveCycle Designer). Digital signatures in PDF forms are not yet supported on mobile devices. Also, you will want to submit the entire PDF, as opposed to just the form data, when submitting a digitally signed form.

Problem downloading a file via http

Hi
I'm just getting started with WLS (sp5) and am having a problem downloading
a file via http. The document is stored in the main html docs directory and
whenever I link to it or try to download it directly (eg:
http://<host>:<port>/myfile.doc) I get the following error in a message box:
Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I grant permissions
to do this - I've tried using the weblogic.security.URLAclFile and adding
the directory as a weblogic.io.fileSystem (a desperation move, I know).
Thanks in advance,
Peter Villiers

PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST
The problem was caused by someone (me though I honestly don't remember doing
it), setting the content security level to high in my web browser which
stopped this type of download.

How to send a pdf file via http call

Hi Experts,
Please try to think on how you would send a file like a pdf file via the http call. You might need to convert the pdf in a character string which can be sent via http. The character string then might need to get converted back into a pdf and saved in a file. Read through the Archive Link API guide to see how they send the body of a file.
Please it is urgent......
Thanks
Basu

so you want to push the PDF file over http to external system.
where is pdf file stored.
for examle if its in the clients desktop, you can use gui_upload to upload to internal tabble (type BIN) then use FM SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING to conver the binary table to type string.
then use cl_http_client class to push the file to the destination.

Problem with loading an image via HTTP

Hallo,
When using the JBCL TransparentImage control i can load images
from my local HD. But when i use setImageURL it won't work. I
looked at the sources and it seems to me that the problem lies
within the default toolkit. The following code works when using
a local file. Via HTTP the Observer get's one notification with
just the error-flag set.
URL url=new URL("http://localhost/mxtj_inetmaps/mp_map1.gif");
// String sFileName="c:\\mapinfo\\inetmap\\mp_map1.gif";
Toolkit tk=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
Image i=tk.getImage(url);
// Image i=tk.getImage(sFileName);
MyObserver mo=new MyObserver();
tk.prepareImage(i, -1, -1, mo);
Could someone help me, how to show a Web-Image within a control ?
Bye Heiko.
null

Hi,
There is no getImage that accepts the parameters in the order in which you have given them. Try this:
getImage( getCodeBase(), "flower.gif" );
Regards,
Manfred.

Cisco Network Assistant and add to comunity problem via HTTPS

hello,
i have big network of cisco switches and all is in my cisco network assistant in comunity connected via HTTPS. if i add new switch to network (all for HTTPS access is configured good: domain name, ip http secure-server, authenticate locale ...) and if i can add this switch to comunity (right click on icon and ADD TO COMUNITY), CNA say "Unable to Connect", because it can connect to switch via HTTP (i have disable it on switch), not via HTTPS. i have never version of CNA ... where is problem? why it not connect to switch via HTTPS? hmmm? thank you ...

"The HTTP server interface must be enabled to display the network assistant. " Source.
You can put an access-list on the http server if you are concerned about security exposure.

OSB call to remote Web Service via https proxy and https CONNECT problem

Hi
I have a service that calls a web service on another server as a web service. This call is via https and the certificate validation raises no errors.
I now want this call to go via a squid httpd proxy on port 3128 on some machine. So I would like to use HTTP CONNECT (RFC 2817) proxying,. But when I set up this as a proxy, I am getting "Certificate chain" error messages. The certifcate chains is no different now from when I called without the http proxy, so what am I doing wrong? Does OSB support HTTP CONNECT?
-Johan

The exeption we are getting is BEA-380000
General runtime error: [Security:090477]Certificate chain received from XXX - 123.123.123.123 --> test.salesforce.com was not trusted causing SSL handshake failure.
This is of course not relevant if the callout were using CONNECT. In the CONNECT scenario, OSB would not care about XXX's certificate.
