Problem with links for external user

Hi,
We´re using SAP NetWeaver Portal 2004s SPS 10 and we have a problem with links within notification-mails:
The link to the document (e.g. within a subscription mail) consists of "http:///...". Only user using the portal within our network can open this links. All external user can´t open this links. How can I change the URL so that our external user can open the links, too?
Thanks for help,
Sven Keller

We already have another URL for external usage. My problem is how to define that created links to documents and folder are automatically using the external URL.
If somebody receives an email (e.g. subscription) the URL to the folder is:
http://<portalserver>:51000/irj/go/km/navigation/documents/Public Documents/Documentation
But it should be:
https://<externalportal>/irj/go/km/navigation/documents/Public Documents/Documentation

Strange problem with linking to external vob-file

I have a strange problem with linking to external vob-file. I
have created a link using BudApi:
on mouseup
set OK = baOpenFile ( the pathname &
"Files\General\Video\VTS_01_1.VOB", "normal")
end
This code opens mpg-videos correctly, but nothing happens
when I try to open vob-files with the same code. The strangest
thing is that when I change the default program for vob-files to
WinDVD this code works and the file opens, but when I change the
default program to Nero Showtime this code doesn't do anything
(when I open the file 'manually' from the folder, it opens
correctly on Nero Showtime). My client uses Nero Showtime, so I
really would appreciate any help on this one.

If you open a command prompt, do you get an association
listed like this
example for .txt files:
C:\>assoc .txt
.txt=txtfile
C:\>ftype txtfile
txtfile="D:\Program Files\JGsoft\EditPadLite\EditPadLite.exe"
"%1"

Problem with emails to external users

Hi
I'm working on EP 6.0.15.0.0. When I try to send a link from KM to an external user I receive the error message:
<b><i>The mail could not be sent to the specified recipients</i></b>
If I try to send the same link to an user belonging to the domain, everything works fine.
I have created a smtp system and an email transport.
I tried also to check that my SMTP is:
- reachable from the portal machine
- allows the specified Channel Originator to send notifications
Could somebody help me?

Hi Alessia,
the problem will be your SMTP server; this is not really a portal issue. However, check the default.X.trc file(s) for a more detailed exception, which the SMTP server responded to the portal server. I expect from your description that the SMTP server doesn't allow relaying and so doesn't accept the mail which the portal tries to send.
A possible solution would be that your mail server admin configures the server in that way that it accepts mails "to everybody" if the sender for example has the IP your portal has, or depending on the sender's name.
Hope it helps

Creating a link for external users to view my project

Hi -
I want to share my RoboHelp project with external users that do not have access to my company's internal server if I publish there. Is there a way to create a link to my project that I can just share with other people?
Thanks!

Hello again
Are you clicking the "view result" link? If so, the CHM should simply open. However, there are a host of things that can go wrong along the way and to figure out what may be happening we need to ask all sorts of questions.
Did you click View Result after it finished? If so, what happened? An error? Nothing? What?
Where are you attempting to compile the help? When you look at the properties of your Single Source Layout recipe, where are you pointing the output folder to? What is the file name?
Are you able to open and view other CHM files? Do you know what a CHM file is?
As you can see, there are many questions to answer. And probably others I failted to think of.
Cheers... Rick

YouTube problems with Safari for many users

It seems that quite a few other users are having problems with Safari and YouTube after the recent updates.
(On another note, there's even more problems with Facebook and Safari.)
It seems that Safari isn't getting along with the web's two most popular sites. I am having these problems myself. Chrome seems to handle them fine, being WebKit also...

In the last week or so my Safari is going crazy. THis is frustrating and I dont know where the problem could be... I just know that I wouldnt like to switch to other browsers and I would still like to use Safari. But this is too much...
So I have a one year old Mac Book Pro 2.3 ghz Intel Core i7 8gb memory
MAC OS X version 10.7.3
Safari 5.1.4
So what is / was happening.
Firstly I couldn't see any of my emails in my gmail mailbox. I could see my emails if I could go back to the old look. But I wanted to have the new GMAIL look so I Was wondering what to do. At the same time in youtube which ever button i pressed nothing happened. If I pressed the videos button so I could see more videos from the user nothing opened. If I pressed show more button to get more info on the video nothing happened. So then I googled a little to see if somebody else has a problem and then somewhere it was written to uncheck the "open in 32bit" box and I did that. And so there was some progress. Even though I would still like to know why I need to do that and what is the difference if you are opening Safari in 32bit or you are not opening it in 32bit... Anyway at least now I could see my emails in my inbox on gmail and when I pressed the youtube buttons stuff worked. But still YouTube doesnt work the way it is suppose to work. When I open some videos - most of the videos I have huge problems with the slider timeline scrolling option (I dont know if that is the right name for it). Anyway this slider doesnt work at all. The video is loading and playing at the same time and then at one moment the slider stops or jumps at the beginning while the video is still playing. And I cant jump anywhere on the slider. The video plays till the end, I cant even pause it and when it comes to the end I cant play it again... I need to reload. SO once again. The slider stops and the loading trace disappears but the video plays on... And I have no control over it - I can not jump in time I can not go to the beginning - all I can do is either watch the video or reload the page...
Plus my safari keeps on reloading after a certain time. This can be a total pain in the *** when I write a long reply to somebody on Facebook or write a new thread on Apple support community and it reloads and what I was writing is lost forever. Again frustrating.
Does somebody else have the same problems and what should I do about this ******** Safari. Will they fix these problems are they fixing them?

We have been having a problem with newsletters for a client. The newsletter works fine except if we add a button and/or link to the top zone on that newsletter it blows up ONLY ON iPhones!

We have been having a problem with newsletters for a client.
The newsletter works fine except if we add a button and/or link to the top zone on that newsletter it blows up ONLY ON iPhones!
This happened last month too. It seems to be related to length of the newsletter too. It works on every device except iPhones - so weird.

Hi, is anyone else experiencing i-phone only problems on email campaigns? not bashing Apple, just having issues where our newsletter are only having issues on iPhones

How to secure BSP applications for external users on the internet?

I posted this question under Enterprise Portal forum but got no response. I am hoping some of you experts in this area can help.
We have developed BSP applications and set them up as iViews in Enterprise Portal 6. Our portal implementation will be used by external users.
We have security concerns that the access to the BSPs allows external users direct access to the R/3 system. We were told that we should use ITS application instead of BSP application for external users.
Do any of you have any insight into how we could work around the security problem with BSP applications, or BSP applications in EP6? Your help will be greatly appreciated.

In sense they are correct as to whether it is more secure or not would have to be a call by people who are more of an expert than myself.
But I can see there point the BSP runs directly on the system and uses the system security where as the ITS is basically just an RFC call. However for us we use a 620 server with BSP's and make RFC calls to our R/3 systems thus keeping people of the R/3 directly - however we are not opened to the Internet.
If your message is answered please remember to mark it solved so others searching in the future can find the solved ones quicker - just click on the yellow star.

Outlook Anywhere proxy changed from Basic to NTLM for external users

I have a Exchange 2013 environment that is also running Exchange 2010 coexistence (migrating). What is happening is autodiscover is handing out NTLM for the proxy settings and not basic. However when it is using NTLM we seem to get the password prompt over
and over. If I manually changed it to Basic then it works fine, but when autodiscover goes again it changes back to NTLM and prompts that the Administrator made a change and you need to restart Outlook.
I checked Outlook Anywhere and all my servers have Basic set for external users and NTLM set for internal.
I only have a few mailboxes on 2013 and 2010 mailboxes seem not to have a problem.
Here is an output for Outlook Anywhere on all six servers:

Hi,
Please refer to the following KB to set the Outlook Anywhere settings on Exchange Server 2013 Client Access servers:
http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2834139
If it doesn’t work with the resolution above, please do the following checking in ADSI Edit:
1. In Adsiedit, expand Configuration-->CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange -> CN=domain -> CN=Administrative Groups -> CN=Exchange Administrative Group -> CN=Databases.
2. Right-click the listed database > Properties.
3. Check whether the msExchHomePublicMDB value is set to an available value. Please change the value to <not set>.
4. Click OK.
Then check whether the issue persists.

Excel Services Connectivity on Sharepoint 2013 for external user

Currently , external user is able to refresh the data on sharepoint site through browser. the data connection is pointing the one of the external data source. But how can an external user (Internet user which accessing sharepoint through internet) download
a copy of excel in sharepoint library and open the excel workbook with data refresh ability at client machine ?
Do we need client machine to be able to access / ping the external data source?
Thanks.

Thanks for the response.
They want to perform data analysis and design their own report with own template , for example : to remove subtotal from the powerpivot tables which we cannot change the formatting at the excel services at browser level.
So if i understand correctly, we need to get the client machine to be able to access to the database server directly to get the access to the cube for data analysis although we had this odc file connection setup, am i right?
For internal user, network team should open port / access for them to access database server directly.
For external user, either to open public access to the database server directly or setup a VPN connection for the external user to access the database server in their secure network.
Let me know if i understand this correctly.
Thanks.

How can I share my a public calendar from iCal (through iCloud) with Outlook for Windows users?

I have a public work calendar that I wish to share with colleagues in the office. No issues for those having a Mac or an iPhone, but how can I share the calendar with Outlook for Windows users?
Thanks for the help!

Hello ramirofromstrockholm,
The steps detailed below explain how to go about publicly share a calendar (which doesn't require that one be an iCloud user to accept).
Click the Share button to the right of the calendar you want to share, then select Public Calendar.
Note: You can also share the same calendar privately. For instructions, see the previous task, “Share a calendar privately.”
To invite people to view the calendar, click Email Link.
Type one or more email addresses in the To field, then click Send.
The people you specify automatically receive an invitation email that includes the calendar’s URL. An invitee doesn’t need to be an iCloud user to accept an invitation to view a shared public calendar.
In the sidebar, a shared calendar has a dark Share button.
You can also resend invitations to one or more invited participants at any time.
iCloud: Share a calendar with others

Lyncdiscover reports HTTP 500 Internal Server Error for external users

Hello,
I have a problem providing lyncdiscover information for external Lync users. The same address works internal (prompts for file download) so I believe the problem is UAG/TMG providing the site which is not my cup of tea. I have a working external lyncdiscover
for other domain in the same Lync + UAG/TMG server environment. I have also checked the public DNS records few times and everything should be fine. Firewall also shouldn't be an issue since it reports the internal server error, right? Any suggestions what
should I check?

more information based on Lync Autodiscover Web Service Remote Connectivity Test.
Testing HTTP authentication methods for URL https://lyncdiscover.domain1.com/Autodiscover/AutodiscoverService.svc/root/user.
HTTP authentication methods successful.

The same result goes for the other domain that provides the lyncdiscover information correctly for external users. It doesn't seem to solve the root cause but might help to understand
the problem.

Indesign CS6 on MACs with OS 10.8 are having problems with links

Hi
Indesign CS6 on MACs with 10.8 are having problems with links. All links to other files have to be updated when opening a file although definitely nothing has changed to the linked files.
We can rule out our company's networking and the system hosting the files (HELIOS software on RedHat Linux VM). This happens with newly created Indesign files and with old ones. E.g. we create a file on Tuesday, save it and open it again on the exact same MAC on Wednesday and all links to other fiels (.indd, .png, .bmp, etc. nothing uncommon) have to be updated as they all show the yellow triangle + black exclamation mark symbol next to them. Has anybody else experienced this, What can we do? We have tried absolutley everything and updated all software from MAC OS to CS6 itself but nothing seems to help on the long run.
Any further information required?
M. Miller

Thanks for your quick reply.
We actually noticed that there also seems to be something wrong with the timestamps:
If we open the infos via the MAC finder to a file (.psd e.g.) which is linked in one of our indesign files, it states a certain date of creation.
If we then switch to the Indesign file we just opened in which we had to update all links and open the infos to exactly the same file we looked at in the finder, a different date of creation is stated. So there also seems to be a mistake here (hope it's clear what I mean).
We are ruling out our network as the error cannot be "re-enacted". We have created numerous test files in Indesign (simple white page containing one link to a .psd file which is also used in one of the supposedly defective files) and have opened them on various MACs with various OS versions over the past days/weeks but unfortunately the files open without any notifications or errors.
Just as a background: a few months ago, the problem seemed to occur between MACs with differing OS, 10.6 - 10.8 at first. A file which was created on a 10.6 MAC could not be opened without updating all links on a 10.8 MAC. That is why we updated everything to 10.8. The error did not occur for about 2-3 weeks but then reoccured again.?
Have you heard anything similar?

Access to my Office 365 third-party app for external user : "a User account is not registered for the account"

In my third-party web application of Office 365, I want to have access to the contacts, events and emails of all the users from the organizations who installed my app. The thing is I don't want that all these users have to grant me access, I just want one
admin of the org to grant access for my app and then be able to retrieve the data I need for all the users.
To test for one organization, I logged in as the admin and proceed to the Oauth2 authentication to retrieve the access token and in the first request (the GET one to retrieve an authorization code) i add the parameter
prompt=admin_consent.
With this access token, I can access the data (emails, contact, event) of the admin
for instance for the contacts
uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(adminemail)/Contacts
but not the data of the other users of this org with this uri
uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(useremail)/Contacts
The only thing I can do is retrieve an access token for each user but it supposed that each user has to authorize the access to the app but it's very cumbersome. So, i don't see what enables the parameter prompt=admin_consent and how to use it. Does anybody
know what it does?
And my question is: how can I do to access the data of all the users of one organization when the access has been granted by one admin?
Thank you!

You are sending the OAuth request to a tenant specific endpoint of Azure AD. Note the {key_provided} part of your Url - that part represents the tenantid or a registered domain name of an Azure AD tenant. Azure AD throws this error is the user signing in
is not a user in that tenant.
Multi-tenant applications like yours have two options:
Perform home realm discovery yourself and send the SSO request to the correct tenant-specific endpoint of Azure AD: when a new Azure AD organization signs-up for your application, record its tenant ID, and registered domain names. On your login page, ask
the user for their email and try to discover what Org they belong to using the suffix the email.
Use the common endpoint of Azure AD. Instead of the {key_provided} part of the URL, use 'common'. In this case Azure AD will determine the user's tenant and sign-in the user. The token that your application will receive will still be from the user's tenant
(iss claim).
2 is more convenient for apps. However #1 has an advantage when the user's Organization has customized their sign-in page with the company logo etc - in the case of #1 the user will directly be taken to the customized and familiar sign-in page.
I recommend a combination of the two: try determining the user's organization and sending them to the tenant specific SSO endpoint. If you're not able to - send them to the common endpoint.

Quick link for anonymous user

People,
Can somebody tell me how to use a quick link for anonymous user
I'm able to access this
http://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.caritor.Student!2fcom.caritor.iviews!2fKMNavigationview
but http://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/<quicklink> is not working.
Krishna Murthy

HI Michael,
I have one more qn for you.
Normally, when an iView set to anonymous users is opened(with the full pcd path), it opens up in a page directly without the role being displayed. (Like wat happens in the preview of an iView)
But when the quick link is used, it drills down the role and shows the iView. Is there any way to avoid the role being shown in this case?
Regards,
Krishna Murthy

Please Help?! Problems with Viber for iPhone 4s

Please help!
I have had problems with Viber for a while now and had given up! But now a few contacts only have viber and not other free messaging apps so I’m trying to use it again but still having problems.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times and still have not received an access code. My main problem though is the messaging it would work fine and then I wouldn’t be able to send any messages and I would receive a message go into the app and the message would not appear.
The other day I reinstalled it whilst at work and worked perfectly could send and receive messages easily. Then when I went home the problem stated again. I then uninstalled and reinstalled again and it worked perfectly, but now back at work I’m having the issues again! I can’t keep uninstalling and reinstalling is there a way this can be fixed?!
If anyone is able to help me out it would be much appreciated! Thanks

You activated "Find My Mac," which disables the built-in Guest account and adds a Safari-only "Guest User" pseudo-account. To get the Guest account back, you would have to disable FMM.
