RDBMS Authentication in Weblogic Portal console 8.1 (SP5)

HI,
I have configured RDBMSBased authentication for oracle in Weblogic portal console 8.1.For Authenticating thru code,do i need to write any custom authentication for RDBMS or Is there any default authenticator?
Regards,
Senthil

Hi subha,
Thanks for ur reply.
U meant to say that i need to create RDBMSBeased Authentication provider for oracle in the existing myRealm. This RDBMS authenticator is one of the authenticator in the Authenticator list.Am i correct?
I have certain issues regarding this type of config:
1)If i create a user thru program,where does it go? either embaddedLDAP or oracle database
2)Since point base not used in production,we have to use oracle for Authentication as well as Autherization server.
In the default configuration, user preferences are stored in point base database but it should go to oracle.
Is it possible to redirect to oracle?
What i had done that I have created new Realm where i configured RDBMSBased authenticator. Using this config, can i do Authentication as well as Authorization?
Pls suggest.
Regards,
Senthil

Authentication in weblogic portal server 8.1 sp2 using external LDAP

Hi,
I am trying to use external LDAP for authentication.
I have configured the ActiveDirectoryAuthenticator giving the necessary
values
( and added
"-Dcom.bea.p13n.usermgmt.AuthenticationProviderName=ActiveDirectoryAuthentic
ator" in startWeblgoic.cmd )
and can see the users and the groups from my LDAP provider in the admin
console and in the admin portal's "users and groups".
A set of users are given permission to access the restricted site and those
users are visible in the global role with the permission.
The web.xml is configured for BASIC auth-method, and the role is
<externally-defined/> in weblogic.xml.
Now when I access a restricted page, I am shown a dialog prompt to key in
the username and password.
Even when I key in the valid credentials, the restricted page is not shown
and an "Unauthorized xxx" 401 access error is thrown.
Any clue, on what i am missing.?
Please let me know if any suggestion / idea.
Regards,
Arun.

Assuming your application is a WebLogic Portal application, then yes you would definitely need to install WLP 8.1. WLP version 8.1 is the only version of WLP that will run on WLS/WLW version 8.1.
In order to obtain the product installer, you'll need to contact Oracle Support and file a request. It is not available for download from any Oracle public site. Only version 10.3 is available for download.

Weblogic Portal Console Administration and SSO

Hello!
I have integrated Oracle Weblogic Server(10.3.2) with Oracle Identity Manager to achive Single Sign On. In IDM is set form login.
My base_domain configuration is : AdminServer and a Cluster_0 with two managed servers : Server_1 and Server_0.
I have as proxy server : Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) for each server : Admin-Server, Server-0, Server-1.
I targeted my portal app to cluster. My portal application contains Portal Administration Console, avaibled at /myAppAdmin.
Security Providers are (in this order):
1. OAMIDAsserter - Oracle Access Manager Identity Asserter( Control Flag : REQUIRED, Active Types : ObSSOCookie)
2. OIDAuthentificator - Provider that performs LDAP authentication (Control Flag: SUFFICIENT )
3. DefaultAuthenticator - Weblogic Authentication Provider ( Control Flag : SUFFICIENT
4. DefaultIdentityAsserter - Weblogic Identity Assertion provider.
When I access Portal Administration Console from /myAppAdmin (admin-tools.war)
1. I login first in IDM with the user from LDAP : weblogic_ldap. The login is ok and the ObSSOCookie is set.
2. I am redirected to login from Portal Administration Console (this thing is wrong and I want to jump this step. I want to go directly in Portal Administration Console after the first login).
3. I login in the second login page from Portal Administration Console with the same user : weblogic_ldap. The login has succeed.
4. I am logged in Portal Administration Console and I can add content ( for exemple)
What I have to do to have only the login form from IDM. To have the only two steps:
1. Login in Portal Administration Console using login form from IDM and a LDAP user
2. Access the Portal Administration Console
I have tried :
I have changed domain security Default Model : "Advanced" , set Combined Role Mapping Enabled to "FALSE", set Check Roles and Policies to
"ALL Web applications and EJBs" and selected for When Deploying Web Applications or EJBs: "Ignore roles and policies to DD".
After this changes I deployed myApp which contains /myAppAdmin Console with Security policies set to Advanced.
I have only the IDM login, the correct one, and after that I am able to see first page of the Portal Administration Console and whatever I click I receive the error:

I have to modified admin-tools.war or something in domain's security or myApp's descriptors to be able to login in Portal Administration Console
using only SSO and not both SSO and default login?
Thank you for helping me.

Thank you user11089180, this bit me too. The new password of Passw0rd for the system account is really buried in the documentation.

Weblogic Portal 10.3 : Password Expiry Policy for DefaultAuthenticator

Hi,
I wan to create a Password Expiry Policy for Default Authenticator in Weblogic Portal can somebody explain me the steps.
Password: Should be minimum 8 characters and One Capital letter and One Number minimum
Password: Should be expired after 90 days
Thanks in Advance,
Viswanath K

You cannot directly do this as far as I know.
a. Either write your own custom authentication provider that implements these rules, or use an off the shelf LDAP that lets you specify these rules
b. Implement this outside the authenticator (i.e. when the user specifies the password , validate these rules). When the user changes his password , record the date, when the user logs in , check the date for expiry etc,

Weblogic portal session data lost

Hi,
I have a peculiar scenario where the data set in the HttpSession gets lost intermittently. I could not really figure out a pattern where this occurs.It occurs any where in the application.
I have a session listener tied to the Session which does not get triggered when the session data is lost in this manner. This makes me to believe that the session itself is not getting killed. but only the data gets lost.
I am using Weblogic Portal Server 8.1 sp5 on UNIX server.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Raj

Well, we use the standard authentication:
[url http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs81/javadoc/com/bea/p13n/security/Authentication.html#login(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)]
Hope it will work in your case. Good luck.

Weblogic portal external authentication and authorization

In our project we are using Weblogic portal 10.3 and Oracle 11g as back end. While creating the domain, I have specifed Oracle as back end. All the portal relevant schemas are created in Oracle database. For our application, We have created a specific schema. In a project specific schema, we have user table which containing fields like user name, password, email and other relevant fields. How to configure in weblogic to access this table for authentication instead of the user table in portal schema? As well as I need to know, in a admin console if a new user is created then the details will be stored in a portal schema table or in a project schema user table? Ultimately, I want to configure the project specific table to store the user details when the user created via admin console.
Need this urgently.

Hi Rajesh
Basically you need Custom Authenticator to store and authenticate all your users from your own specific DB Tables (that has user information). For this you need to develop Custom Authenticator. Please note that this has nothing to do with the Portal. This is core weblogic security stuff. I compiled some links for you. Incase if you have Oracle Support, open a ticket with them Oracle support do have a fully working sample custom RDBMS Authenticator that stores and authenticates Users from specific set of custom Tables. They will send you right away. I hope someone in these forums may have this sample also in their personal blogs/forums.
And, Yes, you can force your Custom Authenticator to be the default one and to store the users when you create the users in Admin Console. Basically when you create the users you should see the option like to create the users in which Authentication Provider like that.

Weblogic Portal Admin Console is not displayed after the ear deployment

Hi
There is a Weblogic portal application deployed in the Weblogic Server 9.2 mp3 . The application is fine , when opened with the browser, but the problem is the portal admnistrator console is not opened.
The application is deployed in a clustered environment with an Admin server and one managed server. The domain is configured for Production Mode and running in an Solaris environment.
I had another similar kind of domain where the application is running fine and the weblogic portal admin console is also fine.
The following difference is observed in both the server logs. I see that there is some problem with the initialization of /WEB-INF/beehive-netui-config.xml. The log continues with the messages like "< Pushing body text '" etc.

how did you create this domain? Is this dataSource defined - portalFrameworkPoolAlwaysXA? is it targetted to cluster? did you get errors on startup related to this dataSource?

Authentication denied on Weblogic admin console

I was playing with security policy for web applications and now I can't login from
console any more. It gives following error : Authentication Denied
The username or password has been refused by WebLogic Server. Please try again.
I can start the server from command line. How can I find out what is the problem
and how can I fix it ?
Thanks,
MK

Hi AB.
You can write your own pages and add them to WebLogic admin console by writing a console extension, here is a link to bea doc http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs100/console_ext/understandext.html

Weblogic portal 10.3.2 sample domain admin console question

I'm using the sample domain shipped with WebLogic Portal 10.3.2 for some testing. I'm trying to access the admin console, could someone tell me how to find the user name and password to access the console? I thought weblogic/welcome1 was the default.
thanks

Hi,
Just installed WLS10.3.2 and created the default base_domain using the conf wizard. When asked, I provided the username "weblogic" and password "welcome1". But now I can't logon to the admin console. I've tried also passwords like webl0gic, weblogic, weblogic1, password1, passw0rd and then some. Any other possibilities?
Thanks

Equivalent of Weblogic Portal admin console in Webcenter ?

Our company is currently equipped with Weblogic Portal (WLP) 10.3.2. I'm part fo the team in preparing a migration approach study to Oracle Webcenter (OWC).
In WLP 10.3.2 we are using JSF, WSRP and 286 portlets. Hence most of it can be reused in OWC.
Regarding run time customisation in Weblogic+ Portal administration console we can create desktop and include books, pages, portlets in Portal.
Can we achieve the same in Oracle Webcenter through Webcenter Portal administration console ?
While going through Oracle documentation I found the foll. thing "Composer in WebCenter Portal has been leveraged extensively inside Oracle WebCenter Portal: Spaces to allow users to customize and personalize spaces."
I'm not clear if I can achieve the equivalent of Weblogic Portal administration console+ in Webcenter using Webcenter Portal administration console (or) Spaces (or) Composer ?
Any helpful pointers / links would be helpful.
Thanks for the helping heart in advance.

As you are expecting simple mapping, it will be not be there, because they change whole product in such way that there is no one to one mapping between weblogic portal and webcenter portal.
Spaces used for run time development of team sites and other collaboration sites, so this will be not useful to you in your scenario. Composer is run time customization of page. So if you want to give user capability to change content and page then you can use this feature.
But for your answer or requirement you can use web center portal admin console to create pages and put portlet inside it from WC Portal Admin console. I know you might have gone through tutorials, but here is the quick one.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_admin_apps.htm
With WC oracle made too much complexity to understand. As a weblogic portal developer I also always try to compare things with WL portal :-)

There isn't a specific list of pro's / con's. Here are a few of the factors.
a. Is this a custom UUP we are talking about or out of the box UUP? (determines effort time saved)
b. What other features of WLP will be used? Will say for e.g. entitlements be used , and is so will they be based on UUP properties ? will content selectors be used? will segments be used? What are you hoping to accomplish by using the UUP? (determines what benefits you get)
c. Are there any search related requirements based on the UUP (e.g. find all users with a UUP of country='US'?) How pure should your design be i.e. do you only interact with supported BEA API's or are you willing to go to the db directly , with the knowledge that future releases may cause your code to break? (UUP's arent good for searching , you can however go directly to db or use a custom UUP)
d. what sort of caching is possible for the data(i.e is the data very time sensitive or mostly static)? what sort of updates are done ? is it one property at a time or multiple properties? is the UUP read only?How much flexibility do you need with transactions? (UUP go well with non time sensitive data which isnt updated by means other than the UUP).

Weblogic Portal 9.2 Startup Error - Linux

Hi all, Thanks in advance for help in resolving this critical situation.
Installed is Weblogic Portal 9.2 on a Ubuntu [Debian] Linux workstation. When I create a portal environment using default Configuration Wizard settings, ./startWeblogic.sh executes and I am able to reach the cosole without problems.
As soon as I try to customize the configuration using Oracle drivers and corresponding username/password, I see an alert that reads:
<b>This domain is configured to use the SQL authenticator security provider. You must load database tables in the "Run Database Scripts" panel or load the tables manually after completing the wizard using the SQL file located at ~/bea920/user_projects/domains/pDomain/security/SQLAuthenticator.sql</b>
I click 'OK'. And 'Done'.
When I attempt to start Weblogic, it fails with the following stacktraces:

Here is what i have tried:
1. altered the username and password in boot.properties
2. deleted boot.properties and manually entered the username and password at WLS startup [as seen in the stacktrace].
3. created a default-settings portal environment that started weblogic, then used the console to chenge the settings to my customized values. Restarted the server and it failed with the same stacktraces.
Please please help. Our team has exhausted its knowledge of trouble shooting this situation. This forum is my next to last result.
Thanks again.

I too was facing this problem initially but on windows machine. This problem occurs because p13nDataSource is not configured and its still pointing to the POINTBASE data base. Point it to Oracle database and then test the connection. Once the Connection Test is sucessful go to Run Database Script. Select the correct version of Oracle i.e. 8i, 9i or 10g. Then select on DataSource from in the top left corner. Only two DataSource needs to be configured. cgDataSource-nonXA and p13nDataSource.Select these Data Source one after another and Run the scripts once this is done u can configure the WLI Domain.
This is done once configuring the WLI Domain.
I would post the corrective measure for the Domain which has been already created. If the issue is blocking u can create a new domain:-)

Active Directory Authentication in Weblogic 8.1

Hi,
We want to do authentication from Microsoft Active Directory using weblogic 8.1.
I have created a Active directory and
configured weblogic from console to use it. But it is still not working. Your
help with these question would be highly
appreciated.
1. Is there anyone in group who have tried this before. Please let me know how
to proceed.
2. Is there any tool by which I can get to know the different attribute asked
for configuration in Weblogic?
3. I am not able to login to my application after configuration. Is there any
other way to come to know whether it is working
or not?
There could be plethora of reason but nothing which can come to my mind. Everything
seems to be configured correctly. Here is
portion of my config.xml related with authentication:
<FileRealm Name="wl_default_file_realm"/>
<PasswordPolicy Name="wl_default_password_policy"/>
<Realm FileRealm="wl_default_file_realm" Name="wl_default_realm"/>
<Security GuestDisabled="false" Name="vendavo-dev"
PasswordPolicy="wl_default_password_policy"
Realm="wl_default_realm" RealmSetup="true">

First, of all is it possible to use Active Directory authentication in Weblogic
without writing any custom code. If yes, how?
Thanks in advance,

Amit,
We have successfully used WLS 8.1 sp1 with AD - but not without our share of ups
and downs though.
|
|
1) First, make sure you are sending right LDAP queries to AD. To verify this,
we used free 3rd party LDAP browser from Softerra. There is also java based free
browser from Univ of Michigan. Personally, I like Softerra's LDAP browser better.
Play with your LDAP settings using this and make sure AD is returning the right
data.
|
2) AD has some default settings that makes it return only the top 1000 users.
Use ntdsutil.exe to modify these default settings
|
3) AD needs to have the right set of users and groups. To configure this, refer
to WLS docs. This is very well documented in WLS docs. Also refer to this article
http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlportal/whitepapers/wlp70_MSADS.jsp as additional
reference
|
4) Also, there are some bugs with 8.1 portal sp1 and AD. It cannot take more than
one Authentication provider. sp2 is supposed to have fixed it. For sp1 we used
another product AD/AM (AD in Application Mode) in combination with MIIS server.
But if you are using sp2, you shouldn't be worry about this.
|
5) In your providers, you might want to get rid of the DefaultAuthentication provider,
once you are able to establish a connection with your ActiveDirectoryAuthentication
provider. The DefaultAuthentication provider causes some problems and does not
let ActiveDirectoryAuthentication provider to behave properly. We haven't fully
investgated the root of this prob. When we deleted DefaultAuthentication provider,
everything worked normally - so we didn't really care that much :-)
|
6) Make sure you have your JAAS options set to OPTIONAL initially and make sure
your are able to authenticate talk to your AD.
|
These are the ones I could think of. Hope this helps..

Problem JDBC Connection using OCI Driver on Weblogic Portal on Linux

Hi Team,
I want a JDBC connection using OCI Driver in Weblogic Portal 8.1 sp4 on Linux. When I had tested using JDBC connection using Plain Java Code it is working. Also when I create the OCI Connection Weblogic Connection Pool it is working.
But My Requirement is to create the connection using Java Code in Portal Application
But When I create OCI connection in the code it is throwing NO SUITABLE DRIVER Found.
---------- Code in Plain Java Code ------------ Same code is used in Weblogic Portal Application --------------------------------
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
          Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
          DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
          String url="jdbc:oracle:oci8:@TESTDB";
          Properties props = new Properties();
     props.put("user","scott");
     props.put("password","tiger");
          conn=DriverManager.getConnection(url,props);
When I am using the same code in Weblogic Portal and Deployed on Weblogic Portal Server 8.1 SP4 it is throwing following error.
-------------- Exception on Server Log --------------------
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver

Hi Vishnu
Looks like a classloader issue. BEA class loader is very tricky. Any jar added manually in classpath, will end up loading only those classes. Any imports that we have in any of those classes do not get loaded. Anyhow, coming to your point, add classes12.jar inside your portal web project Web-Inf/lib folder and see if that helps. Usually thats where we put all the JARs for 8.1 SPxx applications. If this still breaks, then remove the jar from web-inf/lib folder and add under your portal app App-Inf/lib folder. First try with app-inf/lib folder having this jar. If not then with web-inf/lib. Basically web-inf is specific to that web app only. If you have a different app having this jdbc code, then put under app-inf/lib folder. Make sure that you remove the classes12.jar that you added in classpath either in env variable or in setdomainenv.cmd file.
When weblogic uses native OCI Drivers, it refers to jars at this location: ....\beawlp814\weblogic81\server\ext\jdbc\oracle\10g or 9g. Try using one of these jars and see if that works. Most of the times I used these jars only for oracle specific native drivers.
Word of caution. Try to use Connection Pool and a DataSource created in weblogic console for your jdbc code. This Datasource can still use the Oracle drivers that you want (instead of BEA Weblogic wrapper oci drivers) located in above location. Use JNDI Lookup and get Datasource and then connection. This is more recommended approach with many advantages then using DriverManager approach..
