Rep-52005 specified keymap name doesn't exists

Hi, some days ago I configured my cgicmd.dat file with a key value for the conection, the day I test my reports on the web they run perfectly. My key is name : scott/tiger@db %*
Now when I try to run my reports, a rep-52005 message appears. I`ve restarted OC4J, and that message is still showed. After that I've restarted the machine and my reports doesn't run.
When I call a report I pass this URL:
http://pcias.ferroplast.es:7778/reports/rwservlet?destype=cache&report=e%3A%5Cinformes%5Creclamaciones_servicio.rdf&desformat=HTMLCSS&server=rep_pcias&cmdkey=suso
If I replace cmdkey=suso with userId=scott/tiger@db it works fine.
Why cannot run my reports using cmdkey?
Thanks in advance

Hello Raul,
The format of your CGICMD.DAT key entry should be something like:
suso: userid=scott/tiger@<db> %*
Please ensure that you restart your OC4J and Reports Server. I was able to successfully run a report using this key.
Thanks,
The Oracle Reports Team.

  • Rep-52005 specified key PSREP does not exist in key map file

    Hi there,
    i am trying to reduce the length of my URL when calling a report (9iDS) from a parameter form
    in 9i using web.show_document(url,'target'). I have defined a key "psrep" at the end of my cgicmd file at reports\conf . The error i get is
    rep-52005 specified key PSREP does not exist in key map file.Stuck here.
    Any help gr8ly appreciated.
    Regards.

    uncomment #KEYPMAPFILE=CGICMD.DAT. remove the #
    then for development set
    reloadkeymap=yes (same file - rwservlet.properties).
    Now it should reload everytime. (otherwise for every change u need to restart oc4j_bi_forms)
    (For * production* may be you want to set reloadkeymap=no once all testing is done)
    see cgicmd.dat for many examples of using keymap file

  • RDS Gateway + Smart Card Error [ The specified user name does not exist.]

    I have the following Windows Server 2008 R2 servers:
    addsdc.contoso.com, AD DS Domain Controller for contoso.com
    adcsca.contoso.com, AD CS Enterprise CA, CDPs/AIAs published externally.
    fileserver.contoso.com, RDS Session Host for Administration enabled
    rdsgateway.contoso.com, RDS Gateway enabled
    tmgserver.contoso.com, 'Publishing' rdsgateway.contoso.com but with pass-through authentication
    And the following Windows 7 PCs:
    internalclient.contoso.com
    externalclient.fabrikam.com
    There's no trust between the domains, the external client is completely separate on the internet but the CA certificate for contoso.com has been installed in the trusted Root CA store. All servers have certificates for secure RDP.
    I enrolled for a custom 'Smart Card Authentication' certificate with Client Authentication and Smart Card Logon EKUs from the CA, stored on my new Gemalto smart card using the Microsoft Base Smart Card CSP.
    From internalclient.contoso.com, I can RDP to fileserver.contoso.com
    using the smart card just fine with no certificate errors.
    From externalclient.fabrikam.com, I can RDP to fileserver.contoso.com
    via rdsgateway.contoso.com using a username and password just fine with no certificate errors.
    From externalclient.fabrikam.com, I can RDP to fileserver.contoso.com
    via rdsgateway.contoso.com using the smart card to authenticate to the gateway, and a username and password to authenticate to the end server, just fine.
    BUT from when using a smart card to authenticate to the end server via the gateway, it fails with:
         The specified user name does not exist. Verify the username and try logging in again. If the problem continues, contact your system administrator or technical support. 
    When I move the client into the internal network and try the connection again (still via the RDS Gateway), it works fine - the only thing I can think of is being outside the network and not being able to contact the AD DS DC for Kerberos is causing the issue
    - but I'm pretty sure this is a supported scenario?
    The smart card works fine internally, the subject of the certificate is the user's common name (John Smith) and the only SAN is
    [email protected] which matches the UPN of the user account as it was auto-enrolled.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    I had a similar issue where I am using a smart card through a Remote Desktop Gateway. I had to disable Network Level Authentication (NLA) on the destination Remote Desktop Server. If anyone has another way around this, I'd appreciate hearing it. I'd prefer
    to use NLA.

  • Continue to get this error on a site I use every day - "WebSpeed error from messenger process (6019) Msngr: the specified service name does not exist or has a bad format. (5825):" Any ideas what's wrong?

    I've tried clearing the browser cache and restarting the computer, but nothing helps. No idea what's wrong. Any ideas?

    You also could delete any saved cookies for that site:
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    When I search this error message, I find threads indicating it is a problem on the web server, and there's not much a user can do to fix it. For example:
    http://www.fixya.com/support/t2835936-webspeed_error_from_messenger_process
    You could try to confirm that diagnosis by using a different browser or a different computer.
    If it persists, you probably should complain to the site. Perhaps they are aware of some add-on conflict or other browser configuration issue that affects Firefox users specifically.
    Edit: When I visit the site's root address, within about 5 seconds I get the error. But links I visit from Google results (site:hachik.com) work fine, e.g., http://www.hachik.com/about.html So there is something about the dynamic navigation that is broken.

  • Encounter error with command "New-MailboxFolder" (The specified mailbox doesn't exist)

    [Symptom]
    ======================
    Generally, a user can use “New-MailboxFolder” command to create mailbox folder for his own mailbox successfully. See the following example:
    The above command creates a new folder named “PersonalFAQ” in the mailbox of Administrator.
    However, this command cannot be used to create folders on other user’s mailbox although the full access permission is assigned. See the follow example. (We already granted the full access permission of
    test1 user to administrator user)
    Just as what the picture shows, an error message will appear:
    “The specified mailbox “username” doesn’t exist.”
    [Cause Analysis]
    =======================================
    It’s by default. The “New-MailboxFolder” command cannot be used to create folders for other mailboxes.
    [Workarounds]
    ==============================
    1. Use EWS channel to create the folders for other mailboxes.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn535504(v=exchg.150).aspx#bk_createfolderewsma
    2. Use MFCMAPI:

    Since this issue is related to only one user, this means that the USERPARAMS information for this user is corrupted.
    The issue could be resolved by deleting all entries related to this user on this table on the HFM DB.
    Kindly open the HFM DB and look for the <application name>_userparams table.
    and,
    Delete the enteries corresponding to the user.Backup this table prior truncating the table.Please get this operation done by an administrator.

  • REP-52005: The specified key userlogin does not exist in the key map file.

    Hi,
    I am using oracle 11g report server. I am getting the error of REP-52005: The specified key userlogin does not exist in the key map file.
    I updated the user_string in cgicmd.dat file. My cgicmd.dat file content is below
    ; OracleAS Reports Services                       ;
    ; CGICMD.DAT                                      ;
    ; Example CGICMD.DAT Mapping file                 ;
    ; Syntax: 
    ;      KEY : VALUE
    ; Where:
    ; KEY - the first argument of the rwservlet URL request (case sensitive).
    ; VALUE - command line parameters and/or special parameters.
    ; Keys can be referenced in the following ways:
    ;    1. Parameter on command line to the reports servlet
    ;          e.g. http://machine/servlet/rwservlet?KEY
    ;    2. Parameter on command line to a reports jsp
    ;          e.g. http://machine/mydir/myreport.jsp?KEY
    ;    3. Within a reports jsp - in the rw:report custom tag
    ;          e.g. <rw:report parameters="KEY">
    ; In addition to the Reports Server command line parameters, VALUE can include special parameters
    ; represented as "%X", where X identifies the parameter. Currently recognized special
    ; parameters:
    ;  %0 - %9 - 0..9 arguments from original rwservlet URL request. Note that %0 refers to the key itself.
    ;  %* - entire contents (all arguments) of original rwservlet URL request.
    ;  %D - request users to input database userid everytime they run the report.
    ;  %P - request for report parameter form in HTML format. It generates the PARAMFORM=HTML
    ;       construction on the first submission of the URL and PARAMFORM=NO upon parameter form submission.
    ; CGICMD.DAT Usage Notes
    ;   1. Multiple keys in this file MUST be separated by an EXTRA empty line.
    ;   2. Extra spaces are ignored. Multi-line entries allowed.
    ;   3. Lines starting with ";" character are treated as a comments.
    ;   4. Comments within a key or key value are NOT allowed.
    ;   5. NLS language support is provided and can be used (encoding should match the one
    ;      used in HTML request - no language conversion of any kind is attempted.
    ;   6. For %P special parameter, HTML format is by default mapped to the HTMLTABLE format in this release.
    ;      The HTML format in the future may be mapped to the HTMLCSS format.
    ;;;;;;;;;;;; Example Key Entries
    ;  Example 1:  Run a simple breakb report and output to HTML
    orqa: report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver
    ; Example 2: prompt for userid the first time, then use database userid stored in the cookie subsequently.
    report_defaultid: report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver
    ; Example 3: use %D to require user authentication every time
    report_secure: report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver1 %D
    ; Example 4:  Take all arguments from URL and send it to the reports server
    run: %*
    ; Example 5:  Run breakb report with HTML parameter form.
    breakbparam : report=breakb.rdf destype=cache desformat=html server=repserver userid=scott/tiger@mydb %P
    ; Example 6: take all URL arguments, and also generate a HTML parameter form  
    runp: %* %P
    ; Example 7: Run an Express Report. Replace <MYHOST> with the name of the machine running the Express server. The
    ; builder on-line help explains the rest of the parameters (the /sl, st etc. etc.)

  • Error: The specified mailbox database [Mailbox Database Name] does not exist, when you try to export mailbox in Exchange 2007

    [Symptom]
    ======================
    In Exchange 2007, when you want to export mailbox to a .pst file, you should run the
    Export-Mailbox cmdlet from a 32-bit computer that has the following installed:
    The 32-bit version of the Exchange management tools
    Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP2 or later versions
    If not, you may encounter the following error message:
    You check that you have these required installed, but you get the error below when you run Export-Mailbox in EMS.
    “The specified mailbox database [Mailbox Database Name] does not exist.”
    [Cause Analysis]
    =======================================
    This is because that the account you use to run Export-Mailbox cmdlet don’t have the Exchange Server Administrator role assigned.
    You can check if this account has been delegated the Exchange Server Administrator role through the following path.
    EMC -> Organization Configuration-> Check permissions in the result pane.
    To delegate this Exchange Server Administrator role, right click on the
    Organization Configuration node and choose Add Exchange Administrator,
    you will see the Add Exchange Administrator window.

    Hi,
    Based on my test, if you make the user the owner of the database (rather than a user with the db_owner role), when you create a query, it creates it under the dbo schema rather than DOMAIN\username.
    Steps to do so (in Management Studio):
    Right click database, select Properties 
    Click File 
    Change Owner in the textbox 
    OK to confirm 
    Downside - other users under db_owner role will still have their username appended. So schemas have to be created for these users.

    Please do not jump to conclusions and make assumptions here like 'when will people finally get it??'.  I never said it was a benchmark.  I have also seen many examples of where it's results do not go with conventional performance.  I have a Radeon 9000 that goes faster on glxgears than a Geforce FX 5600 running Nouveau.  Which is the faster card?  The FX by miles.  It is not a benchmark as it can not be compared between configurations.  What I know is that on this individual system, from prior experience over many years when 3D acceleration is working glxgears gets between 300 and 400 fps.  When it is not working it gets less than 10.  That is a fact but does not mean it is benchmarkable.  Yes, a Quake 3 timedemo (I have these numbers too and they very much correlate to glxgears performance for this system given just how slow it is) would be a benchmark but when it runs less than 0.1fps and even the 2D rendering means that navigating the menu is impossible, there just isn't the time to find out.  Hence if playing around with drivers on this system I would use glxgears to check that 3D acceleration is working but not to benchmark.  Glxinfo does not give you all this evidence.
    But to clarify, I wouldn't use glxgears as a benchmark, benchmarking is different and I do a lot of that too.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

  • Why is Mail asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that doesn't exist?

    I've migrated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion on a new Mac, but in trying to use Mail on ML, it keeps asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that's never existed. The addy has my user name correct, but the server part of the address doesn't exist, or at least I've never used an email address with that provider. On ML there's no plist file for Mail, so nothing to delete there. What else can I do to get Mail working? The only other option I have is to abandon Mail as being crippled and useless, and use Postbox, which for it's price (US$9.95) is an attractive option. OTOH, I've paid for Mail after all, so it really ought to work. Any clues as to what I can do to stop its nonsensical behaviour? How do I file a bug report?
    TIA.

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Container.plist
    (Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library", since the ~/Library is hidden on ML)
