ProviderContext get/setClientProperty problem with authlessanonymous

Hi all,
We have a Sun One Portal 6.2 where the desktop is the same for everyone. Its just a simple channel provided by a JSPSingleContainerProvider where one jsp will handle all the navigation.
The problem we have is related to authlessanonymous user for which we have to keep some properties values. From the documentation (ProviderContext class API), we have see that for anonymous user properties should be kept using get/setClientProperty.
So in our jsp, we retrieve the JSPProvider (using JSProvider object in pageContext) and then get the ProviderCXontext from it. The context object is used to call set/getPropertyClient.
But it seems that there's a twist with the context and his methods that we dont catch or this might be a bug. Still when the jsp is executed the call to setClientProperty dont seems to execute correctly every time.
Here's a sample jsp:
<%@page import="com.sun.portal.providers.jsp.JSPProvider
,com.sun.portal.providers.context.ProviderContext
,java.util.Date
%>
<%
// Objet SunOnePortal disponible uniquement en JSP, utilis� pour les variables de session
JSPProvider provider = (JSPProvider)pageContext.getAttribute("JSPProvider");
ProviderContext providerContext = provider.getProviderContext();
// debug
out.println(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()).toString());
String nbstring = providerContext.getClientProperty("NB");
int nb=0;
if (nbstring != null) {
nb = Integer.valueOf(nbstring).intValue();
out.println("<br/>debut nb="+nb);
// Construction du path vers le Container et la page courante
String url_container = request.getContextPath()+request.getServletPath();
String url_courant = url_container+request.getPathInfo();
%>
<html>
<body>
<a href="<%=url_container%>/homel.html"><%=url_container%>/home.html</a>
<a href="<%=url_container%>/a_page.html"><%=url_container%>/a_page.html</a>
<a href="<%=url_container%>/about_us/about.htm"><%=url_container%>/about_us/about.htm</a>
<a href="<%=url_container%>/about_us/who_we_are/who.htm"><%=url_container%>/about_us/who_we_are/who.htm</a>
<a href="<%=url_container%>/another_path/another_page.html"><%=url_container%>/another_path/another_page.html</a>
<%
// Debug
nb=0;
nbstring = providerContext.getClientProperty("NB");
if (nbstring != null) {
nb = Integer.valueOf(nbstring).intValue();
out.println("<br/>fin nb ="+nb);
int xxx = nb + 1;
providerContext.setClientProperty("NB",String.valueOf(xxx));
out.println("<br/>apres set nb="+Integer.valueOf(providerContext.getClientProperty("NB")).intValue());
%>
</body>
</html>
In this we have a "NB" property that is a number we increase everytime the jsp is executed and the value is stored/retrieved using get/setClientProperty.
So when you click on the links on this page, the jsp is executed again and that should lead to increase of NB. The page is not complete, its just a sample to illustrate our problem. The goal is to force revisiting our jsp everytime.
But if you look at the link, the value is increased:
- For links where the static page (html) is directly a child of the /portal/dt URL, the value is increased everytime except the first time you click on the link???
- For links where the html page is in subfolder (that is not really a subfolder, i know) of /portal/dt (like /portal/dt/any_path/page.html), the value is increased only the first time we click on the link.
Also if you refresh/reload the page the value is increased everytime (that is correct).
Finaly, knows that this happens with anonymous user only, if you're login in that value is increased everytime you click a link!!!
We have defined the authlessanonymous user as described in the documentation. I also tried to add the authlessState property to the provider using the 3 allowed values: server, client, none.... This doesn't seems to have any effect at all.
PLEASE PLEASE! Can anyone can test this and confirm. Just define a new desktop with a single channel with JSPSingleContainerProvider, make the content a single jsp file and copy the code above in it. Then, make this desktop the default for authlessanonymous users. Then use a browser and click the links in the generated page....
What we need is simple, store string properties for the session for all users including anonymous. Since all anonymous share the same session, we have to use set/getClientProperty to store our value in the ProviderContext. That's what we do right now, but that does'nt seems to work as you see. So is there any other solutions?
Im sure we're not the only one to allows anonymous users in. And that you have some values to store for the session. So how are you doing this?
Any help/advices is welcome! We're really in deep s... because of this problem!

Thx for the quick reply,
I tried both "Restart" and "Stop + Start" but still run into the problem when trying to connect Web Matrix unfortunately.
I can go through the trouble of deleting the site and creating it anew if worst come but I'm willing to try other ideas before that if you have any :)

Getting error "Problem with SSL Certificate" but I'm connecting to my private server without SSL

I wanted to create a PDF from a subtree at a website. The first problem was that Acrobat Pro (11.0.7) wouldn't spider it (probably because there was a robot.txt file there) so I had to use SiteSucker to pull the pages down to my Mac.
Then I discovered that Acrobat Pro can't handle file:/// URLs so that was no good either
So then I copied all the pages to a folder on my Linux server where I use a non-standard port (86) for http connection as a minor security precaution.
When I tried to access that from Acrobat Pro, it bitched about a problem with SSL Certificate but gave me no option to do anything about it. More relevantly, all the files were accessible using http protocol, not https so there shouldn't have been any need to deal with SSL certificates at all
I had to temporarily enable port 80 on my apache server at which point it's now pulling all the files in and hopefully converting them.
A) We're at version 11 ---- these kinds of issues should have been fixed years ago
B) While you're at it, fix the stupid UI issue where the download dialog disappears completely if Acrobat Pro doesn't have the focus. On a long download, I'd like to be able to see progress while working on other stuff. Acrobat Pro is not the center of the universe!

Interesting point 2, I am working on a Mac plugin at the moment. It does not hide its dialogs when switching to a different app. I consider this a bug and will fix it so the dialog disappears. I hadn't considered the question of progress but there is a very strong reason to do this on the Mac.
My tests seem to show that
(a) to get a dialog to sit above PDF documents all the time, it must be on a higher "level".
(b) if a dialog is at a higher level, this is a global setting.
So, if the dialog is not hidden when switching all, it will typically sit on top of the other app's document windows. This would not be popular, as the end user, unless they have mountains of screen space and choose to use it that way, must either close or move the dialog when switching app, then bring the dialog back. So, because Acrobat Pro is not the centre of the universe, it will hide dialogs (or rather, the Mac will, as it's a standard option when creating a window).

Why am I getting a "Problem With Previous Purchase" when I haven't purchased anything?

Sometimes, quite randomly when I open anything on my iPad or iPhone and try to update an app or something of the like, iTunes asks me to verify my billing information. It gives me the reason "There was a problem with a previous purchase." And asks me to enter my security code on my debit card. When I do, even though I have plenty of money in my checking, it tells me I was declined and refuses to let me update anything.
I don't understand where the previous purchase problem is coming from, seeing as I have made no recent purchases.
This happens quite often and after several days of entering it again and again it will randomly work and everything will be back to normal. Later, at random, it will happen again and this whole process will repeat.
Please help me understand why this keeps happening.

How can I get round problem with itunes. I get message saying computer isnt authorised to play some tracks Ive downloaded, tells me to authorise which I do, then a message appears saying the computer is already authorised but I still cant access the track

how can I get round the problem I have with itunes. I have bought and downloaded various tracks to my library. When I try to sync my iphone from my PC I get a message on screen saying that it is not authorised to play them and tells me to authorise the computer by clicking store, entering apple id and password then clicking authorise this computer. I do that then get a message saying that my computer is already authorised yet when I try syncing the track again the same thihng happens. Im getting nowhere!

If only some of the songs on an album are giving you the authorisation message, that suggests those song files are damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

I am getting sync problems with Exchange Server and local outlook. Error code is 18439. Does anybody have an idea what the problem might be?

I am using Outlook on my Imac, which is linked to the Windows Exchange Server. All off a sudden I keep receiving messages saying that the message Re: xxxx cannot be synchronized with the exchange server. When I delete the message from my local mail box, all is fine, but after a while another one pops up. The error code is 18493. Does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong???
Thanks for your help already now!

Hello Wolfgang,
I get the same error, but I cannot figure it out too. I hope you or I get some responses back! I do not know why there isnt an edit feature in outlook to acknowledge the individual alarm so it does not alarm again!

Design Problem with GUI sub vi

Hello community,
in general, I would like to separate the GUI from the data, but I get
a problem with this design approach in LabView:
I often have sub VIs that are supposed to control something.
Therefore, these VIs consist of a control loop. A GUI window should
show the regulation process (showing how the tracking error is
hopefully approaching zero etc.). As I said, this GUI should be a
separate VI (separate from the control loop VI). Since the GUI has to
be updated on each sample, it is clear that the GUI VI should be
inside the control loop, and therefore, it should be a sub VI of the
control loop VI.
Now, the problem is that the control loop VI itsself is a sub VI
because the whole regulation is just a subsystem of the whole program
(The main VI doesn't have a GUI, but first starts a (GUI) input mask
for the same reason: separate the GUI from the rest).
But back to the GUI VI inside the control loop. I must check the 'Show
Front Panel When Called' option. But I can't check the 'Close
Afterwards if Originally Closed' option since the GUI VI would appear
and disappear in the control loop - according to the loop's sample
rate. However, if I don't check the 'Close Afterwards if Originally
Closed' option then the GUI VI will continue to show, even after the
control process is finished.
So in other words: I need the possiblity to close the GUI VI
programatically, after the control process is finished.
Any ideas?
Regards
Johannes

Hi tmh,
thanks for your answer

I try to avoid globals. Now, suppose I had multiple unrelated control
loops. I had to suppose a global variable for each of these
subsystems. I already use globals for the GPIB device IDs. I wouldn't
like more.

But if I split the GUI: How can I view them simultaneously? The user
must see input and output simultaneously, in one window.

Your approach sounds interesting. Is there a sample for this
architecture in the examples?
Anyway, I have to point out that I have several unrelated GUI windows
in my application. There is no notion of a main GUI in my application.
The control loop is just one feature of my application, so it doesn't
make sense to use the control GUI as the top-level VI. At application
startup a user input form is displayed (it also has some sort of menu
selection). But even this window can't be toplevel since it provides
an Option radio button (that shows and hides controls, accordingly) a
CONTINUE button, and a STOP button which implies that the input
form.vi must be
in a loop.
The problem is that I can't send messages to windows in LabView as I
am used to in Win32/VC++.

Problem with pictures for hierarchy trees

Hello
I get a problem with tiles involving trees :
For example in the "pascategoryselect" tile, method "InitializeTree" :
        .LabelEdit = 1
        .Images.Add 1, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "FolderClosed.gif")
        .Images.Add 2, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "FolderOpen.gif")
        .Images.Add 3, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "Leaf.gif")
        .Images.Add 4, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "Iba_comp_prod.gif")
        .Nodes.Clear
The '.Image.Add ..." lines crash, the Err.Description statement is "Automation Error, Catastrophic failure" (Err.Number = -2147418113)
I have looked for the RessourcePath and file requested, all exist.
For the moment here is my "workaround"
        .LabelEdit = 1
on error resume next
        .Images.Add 1, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "FolderClosed.gif")
        .Images.Add 2, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "FolderOpen.gif")
        .Images.Add 3, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "Leaf.gif")
        .Images.Add 4, "", LoadPicture(ResourcePath + "Iba_comp_prod.gif")
on error goto 0
        .Nodes.Clear
Have anyone ever had this problem ? How can I solve it ?
Some other trees (don't remember which though) load without problem and the FolderClosedand FolderOpenimages are displayed....
Thanks and Regards,
François

Thanks Markus, you're right I forgot to mention it : I am using version 4 with SP8.
I will have to try again to confirm this but I think it also happens in the generated application (basically, the erro is caught by the calling method, and the tile appear empty)

François

Problem with sound in games requiring quicktime

I recently purchased CSI 1. I installed the game and the latest version of quicktime player. As soon as the game starts and the first character starts talking the game pauses as if loading and then plays for a second and pauses again for a few seconds. This intermittent sound problem makes it impossible to play the game as the freezing stops everything from functioning. I tried another game that requires quicktime to be installed and that game is pausing the same. Has anyone else had this problem? I have all the latest drivers installed for Vista. Any help would be much appreciated.

Do you get any problems with sound in other (older) games? You didn't mention which drivers in particular you updated, but make sure the graphics card's ones are included.

Problem with sound in games

Hi all welcome as you can see I'm new to your forum. So I have a problem as it concerns the sound in games.
Namely, I bought a Creative Headset HS-800 Fatality everything good in listening to music, etc.
But when I go to the game, I turned the sound (someone shoots to the left I hear him right, and vice versa.)
Yes, in all games but mostly it is felt such a battlefiel or call of duty.
At first I thought that this is the fault of my sound card but it's not because I was in a mate and in him was the same ... This recently replaced the computer and the same thing.
I came across the net to reverse the channels, but unfortunately I do not know how to set it up.
Here, the data on my computer:
Sound Card Speakers (Realtek High Definitie
Sound Card Realtek Digital Output (Realtek
Sound Card Realtek Digital Output (RCA) (Re
Operating system: Windows 7 64 bit
I would add that in tests Realtek win7 and everything is fine.

Problem with multiple Toplink/JPA apps in same server

Anyone have experence of running serveral Toplink/ EJB-3 Web apps in the same server (OC4J, alas)?
We seem to get a problem with the second app failing to initialise toplink, with an entity not found message. Each app runs OK on it's own.

Yes, they access the same datasource and most of the tables overlap.
We're thinking it might help to have common entity classes and put them in a shared library, but I don't know if this is relevant (setting up shared libraries complicates testing and tends to snowball, I reckon we need about 15 jars all told).
I''ve had some funnies on OC4J before which I think may be to do with it's use of ClassLoaders, for example I initially put persistence.xml in the libary jar with the data model, but for some reason I get the entity not found error that way. It only seems to work if it's in the classes folder.
For the moment we're getting arround the problem with multiple OC4J instances in the server.
