Require Change of Password on First Use

Gurus,
I need som help with regards to the Change of Password rule for users (new of APEX 3.0).
I read from the help text:
Select Yes to require the user of this account to change the password immediately after logging in the first time using the current password. This rule applies to the use of this account for workspace administration or development as well as to use of this account to log in to developed applications.
So, I add a user and set 'Require Change of Password on First Use' to TRUE and the user logins on the 'Main page' (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=4550:1:1944788853821985) APEX redirects to a change password page. Extremly cool!
But here is the problem, if I build myself a little application (one empty page) and then have a user login to this application (not the same one, a brand new test user) the user is never challenged with the password change.
Is this the way it is supposed to be and I can't read the documentation correctly or is there something I have missed?
Cheers,
Andy

Andy,
The workspace needs to "enable" the account expiration/locking feature. If you don't have it enabled, the new features are not available for end user accounts. To enable it, use the workspace admin app: Home>Administration>Manage Services>Set Workspace Preferences and click the "Enable" radio button for Account Expiration and Locking. We could have disabled the Account Availability (Locked/Unlocked) and Requre Change of Password on First Use user account attributes disabled when this fetaure is not enabled for the workspace but then you wouldn't be able to create accounts and set those attributes as you require in anticipation of enabling the feature for the workspace.

  • Change Password on first use does not work properly.

    I have created apex application user in Oracle Apex 3.2 as follows
    BEGIN
    APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
    p_user_name => 'NEWUSER1',
    p_web_password => 'secret99');
    END;
    As in the documentation
    p_change_password_on_first_use  IN      VARCHAR2    DEFAULT 'Y',
    User should be prompted to change password at first use. But it does not work properly. There is no such message. Still accepts user to log in with old passord that was first given to the user. I have tried explicitly to ensure change password at first log in. by
    BEGIN
    APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER(
    p_user_name => 'NEWUSER1',
    p_web_password => 'secret99',
    p_change_password_on_first_use =>'Y');
    END;
    Still does not work. How can I ensure user to change password on first login.

    Might be a long way around the problem but I would utilize a boolean flag in a column (FIRST_LOGIN) your custom auth table set to 'Y' when you create their account. Then on the login page have a page process something like:
    ** NOT TESTED **
    declare
    v_first VARCHAR2(10;
    v_session NUMBER;
    begin
    v_session := APEX_CUSTOM_AUTH.GET_NEXT_SESSION_ID;
    select FIRST_LOGIN into v_first from AUTH_TABLE where user_name = :P101_USERNAME and :P101_PASSWORD;
    if v_first = 'Y' then
    wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
    P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
    P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
    P_SESSION_ID => v_session,
    P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||':2' *** THIS IS YOUR PAGE TO HAVE THEM RESET THEIR PASSWORD ***
    else
    wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
    P_UNAME => :P101_USERNAME,
    P_PASSWORD => :P101_PASSWORD,
    P_SESSION_ID => v_session,
    P_FLOW_PAGE => :APP_ID||':1' *** MAIN LOGIN PAGE *****
    EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    *** handled **
    end;
    The page 2 in this example would have an few items for them to enter their new password twice, a page process to update their password in the auth table and then redirect them to the intended first page.
    Not sure if it meets your setup.

    i recieve a mail form apple team showing reset password link but its not opening

    I rang Apple and they could noy help me.
    They are often pretty impatient with these questions.
    You will need to contact iTunes Support for this. Be prepared to supply the answers that you do know, plus some additional personal information that only you will know.
    Start here: https://expresslane.apple.com/
    Click iTunes > iTunes Store > Other iTunes topics and questions. Eventually you get to a point at which you can compose a thoughtfully worded email. Apple will respond via email within a day. Be sure to check your spam folder for this reply.
    Normal business hours apply, so you may have to wait until Monday. They will ask you for more personal information, and then you will have to wait for another reply which will provide instructions for resetting your password as well as answers to the security questions. Good luck!

  • Wwv_flow_fnd_user_api.edit_fnd_user to set change password on first use

    Hi,
    Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 on Windows 2008 R2 x64
    Application Express 4.1.0.00.32
    I am importing a workspace from our dev system to 100 databases and I want to make sure the developers are not forced to change password on first loging otherwise this is going to waste a lot of time
    I am running
    alter session set current_schema = APEX_040100;
    begin
         wwv_flow_security.g_security_group_id := 10;
         wwv_flow_security.g_user := 'ADMIN';
         wwv_flow_security.g_import_in_progress := true;
         for r in (select *
                   from apex_040100.wwv_flow_fnd_user
              where security_group_id <> 10) loop
              wwv_flow_fnd_user_api.edit_fnd_user(p_user_id => r.user_id,
                                            p_user_name => r.user_name,
                                            p_change_password_on_first_use => 'N',
                                            p_first_password_use_occurred => 'Y');
         end loop;
         commit;
         wwv_flow_security.g_import_in_progress := false;
    end;
    However, this doesn't seem to do anything and doesn't return an error either. When I query the apex_040100.wwv_flow_fnd_user table nothing has changed
    I've searched the APEX documentation (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/welcome.html) for wwv_flow_fnd_user_api and there is only one match that just lists the package name, not even the spec
    thanks in advance

    Ok now I had a bit more time to look at your code.
    I would do it like this:
    declare
      t_secgrp_id     apex_040100.apex_applications.workspace_id%type;
      t_existing_appl apex_040100.apex_applications.application_id%type := <YOUR APP number HERE>;
    begin
      select workspace_id
      into   t_secgrp_id
      from   apex_applications
      where  application_id = t_existing_app; 
      wwv_flow_security.g_security_group_id := t_secgrp_id;
      wwv_flow_security.g_user := 'ADMIN';
      wwv_flow_security.g_import_in_progress := true;
      for r in (select *
                from apex_040100.wwv_flow_fnd_user
                where security_group_id t_secgrp_id)
      loop
        wwv_flow_fnd_user_api.edit_fnd_user(p_user_id                      => r.user_id,
                                            p_user_name                    => r.user_name,
                                            p_change_password_on_first_use => 'N',
                                            p_first_password_use_occurred  => 'Y');
      end loop;
      commit;
      wwv_flow_security.g_import_in_progress := false;
    end;especially finding out the secgrp..

  • Changing user password on first login

    Hi all,
    I'm using a customised login panel on my external facing portal homepage. I have changed the look and feel of default sap login screen by modifying the logon.par file.
    Now, I want to replicate the standard portal scenario. When an user logs in for the first time then a change password screen should be displayed (same as when we create a new user and log-in to the portal).
    The problem as of now is that when i create a new user through user management and try to login to my external facing portal using this user id then it doesn't login nor it shows any error messages nor any password change prompts.
    Please help me in this regard.
    Thanks,
    Prasanna

    Hi Prasann,
    It great that you have modified the Login par but have to done the necessary changes , refer to this weblog
    Modifying The Logon Par(or customising the Logon Screen)
    for changing Password at first login
    Start the Config Tool C:usrsap<SID><instance>j2eeconfigtoolconfigtool.bat
    Ex: D:usrsapF02JC00j2eeconfigtool --> configtool.bat
    Navigate to  cluster-data --> Global server configuration --> services --> com.sap.security.core.ume.service
    Look for the  property "ume.logon.security_policy.password_change_allowed = TRUE"
    Save & Restart the J2EE engine.

  • I changed my gmail e-mail password. How do I change the password that Thunderbird uses to log in to gmail.

    I changed the password used to access my gmail account. Thunderbird is still using the old password to access the account. How do I change the password that Thunderbird is using. The last time this happened I ended up creating a new Thunderbird account for gmail. Creating the new Thunderbird account at least let me enter the new password. I really don't want to have three Thunderbird accounts for the same gmail account.
    Please do not respond with suggestions about using Password Manager. I do not use it and do not intend to start. I looked and none of my Thunderbird passwords are displayed there. All I want to do is change the password in Thunderbird. If Thunderbird does not have a feature allowing you to change it's passwords, one should be added.

    This is the only way.

  • Need help with administrator password for first use??

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is a dummy question. I just installed BI EE, then I was trying to open a sample Repository file, it asked me for password for Administrator account. I entered SADMIN as I found from the HELP (attached below), it didn't work; then I left it blank, it didn't work, then I tried any password I used during the installation, none of them worked.
    Hopefully I can get some insight here.
    Thank and have a good day.

    ====================
    About the Oracle BI Administrator Account
    The Oracle BI Administrator account (user ID of Administrator) is a default user account in every Oracle BI repository. This is a permanent account. It cannot be deleted or modified other than to change the password and logging level. It is designed to perform all administrative tasks in a repository, such as importing physical schemas, creating business models, and creating users and groups.
    NOTE: The Oracle BI Administrator account is not the same as the Windows NT and Windows 2000 Administrator account. The administrative privileges granted to this account function only within the Oracle BI Server environment.
    When you create a new repository, the Oracle BI Administrator account is created automatically and has no password assigned to it. You should assign a password for the Oracle BI Administrator account as soon as you create the repository. The Oracle BI Administrator account created during the installation of the Oracle BI repository, that is, the repository shipped with Oracle BI, has the default password SADMIN.
    The Oracle BI Administrator account belongs to the Administrators group by default and cannot be deleted from it. The person logged on using the Oracle BI Administrator user ID or any member of the Oracle BI Administrators group has permissions to change anything in the repository. Any query issued from the Oracle BI Administrator account has complete access to the data; no restrictions apply to any objects.

  • HT1689 How can I retrieve/change iPOD password after not using it for a year and not remembering it? (Actual device, not Apple ID)

    Been in Afghanistan for the past year, can't remember the password I put on the iPOD touch before I left.  Tried all I thought it could be.  Does anyone know how I can retrieve the password?  Or, who I can contact to unlock it so I can either use the old one or change it if they can't figure out what it was?  Thanks.

  • Satellite L450D-11V - Asks for password on first use

    My aged parents have bought their first computer - the L450D-11V.
    Have started it up but have been asked for a password. Retailer's help line was no help to them so they phoned dutiful daughter (me). I downloaded the manual but it simply says to follow the on screen instructions.
    Can anyone who bought this model recently tell me how to get past this?

    Hi mate,
    Which password you mean exactly?
    The BIOS password?
    The HDD password?
    The Windows password?
    Are you sure that you didnt set or another one?
    Anyway, normally a password shouldnt be set on first usage. You can contact an authorized service provider in your country. The guys can remove every password.
