Signing Client up for BC usage

Hi everyone,
This is my first post in here
I am a full CC 2014 member and I am building a website in Muse and hosting it on BC for a client. I am also building my OWN new site to be hosted on BC and have a couple of questions;
Firstly, I see in the Dashboard on Partner Portal, that both site addresses have 'expiry' times? Both sites will have stores so I opted for the last in the list when setting them up (as suggested on the excellent video 'Adding Business Catalyst to your Muse sites') to have full e-commerce etc. Ive had to stop the design of my own site at the mo as I have a paying client and wanted to use BC and Muse to give them a superb website. I AM getting there (and extremely pleased with the results so far ) but I am a little worried about this expiration date. Does it mean I MUST Upgrade the sites before this time? Will they just disappear? What if Im not ready by then? The reason Im concerned is that I have an operation on Tuesday 7th October to un-trap a nerve in my arm. This has caused me years of pain and problems having been a pro illustrator and designer for over 20 yrs. Im a little worried that my recovery time may screw with me getting the sites finished BEFORE the expiry date, so a little info on that would be greatly appreciated.
Also, Im at the stage almost where I want to bring the client in to show them how to use BC to manage their contact forms, store purchases etc etc and Im a bit worried as I can't find any info on how to do this just yet?
My client is an ex-movie star. She was in a horror film in the 80's and now, she has new fans who have tattoos of her character from this movie and we are building the site to showcase their ink of her on their skin. It's pretty cool! Because of the horror element I'd really like to launch the site just before Halloween and funnily enough (ooh, spooky!) the expiration date for her site is 31st October! But, my website (which will be my design business and basically my agency as a self-employed designer etc) is due to expire on the 29th! I know I can't get mine finished before that and Im really concerned about what to do next? I understand that I must hit the 'Upgrade' button but I have no idea what happens after this?
So, I need to upgrade my clients site first. Can she do this and input cc payment info? Can she easily add her Paypal info to get her shop working or do I need to do this? Im sure she doesn't want me to have her cc details! And how do I get her to log-in using her own account that only sees HER site and not mine (or any others I will build in the future)?
Finally, I noticed that on the Partner Portal there is a strap line which states I can have my own agency website for free if I have a paying client - is that correct? If so - that is awesome!! And if so, how do I do that so I can assure my website on BC doesn't disappear. If I could sort that first I could just forget about it (stop panicking!) and then concentrate on finishing her site and getting it published and live (so I can get paid! )
Any info is most appreciated. And after the op, maybe working and typing is gonna be easier? I hope so! I need two hands for Photoshop!
Thanks very much all for any advice.

Hi Liam,
Well, back from hospital after having my nerves un-trapped and with the use of one hand, lots of pain, a big pack of pain-killers and a bottle of liquid Morphine, i have a question!!
(scuse my typing!) ok, i worked this out by inviting client through dashboard as admin and giving her instructions on how to 'Upgrade'. once ive had a week or so rest will get back to it.. by then (unless they have completed successfully by themselves) i wiil push the site live to the url etc..
i have also added her colleague over in LA as a new 'user' and needed some advice on which duties i can remove safely from his 'roles' settings? as you know, the site and the main templates are done thru muse. i want him to be able to add new catalogs and products, add blogs, respond to form inputs and orders etc etc.
to be safe, which titles should i remove for his role? can i remove create/delete web pages or will this stop him adding products in any way? ive set up a shop-main-template for new catalogs etc and there will be no need (at the mo) to add any new pages as such to the whole of the site. he just needs the power to add items to their store, create email campaigns, create/edit blogs etc which they always wanted control over. i intend on making some custom videos showing them how to do certain things plus, i like the look of the bcguru video app for the dashboard, thats pretty cool.
thanks for any help you can give me. im starting to really get my head around it all now and excited about the future utilising bc in my business. i am seriously considering starting from scratch with a bc template for my own website. it HAS to be 100% because it will be my agency showcasr for other bc sites. i think that maybe i could still do all the 100% slideshow design, portfolio stuff etc without muse widgets and steer well clear of the css muse spews out. i think this first job has been an excellent learning curve as far as seeing how over-complicated things can get with muse and bc. it HAS worked - and pretty well - (will post link once clients are happy) but like you said, the purist side of things and making sure i have full use of bc is so much more important than going for a 'quick-fix' site-build route.
cheers bud...
sincerely
Beej

Is there a way to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool...

Is there a way to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool
that will install successfully into the personal store in IE?

hi,
It is possible to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool and i am successfully using in my dummy application.
The first thing you need to do is create a keystore and generate the key pair. You could use a command such as the following:
keytool -genkey -dname "cn=Mark Jones, ou=JavaSoft, o=Sun, c=US"
-alias business -keypass kpi135 -keystore C:\working\mykeystore
-storepass ab987c -validity 180
(Please note: This must be typed as a single line. Multiple lines are used in the examples just for legibility purposes.)
This command creates the keystore named "mykeystore" in the "working" directory on the C drive (assuming it doesn't already exist), and assigns it the password "ab987c". It generates a public/private key pair for the entity whose "distinguished name" has a common name of "Mark Jones", organizational unit of "JavaSoft", organization of "Sun" and two-letter country code of "US". It uses the default "DSA" key generation algorithm to create the keys, both 1024 bits long.
It creates a self-signed certificate (using the default "SHA1withDSA" signature algorithm) that includes the public key and the distinguished name information. This certificate will be valid for 180 days, and is associated with the private key in a keystore entry referred to by the alias "business". The private key is assigned the password "kpi135".
Also please go through the http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/tooldocs/win32/keytool.html
This would help u better.

Couldn't create jco client connection for logical system

Dear Experts,
we are facing a strange issue in our custom webdynpro java application, few of our portal users are getting the "couldn't create jco client connection for logical system" for Model Data JCO Destination. below are details
1. portal version 7.02 SP14 (we have recently updated to SP14 from SP02-- is this is causing the issue ?)
1.1. updated the NWDI track with SP14 SCA files as well as added latest WD Runtime SCA file deployed the applications to Production also.
2. above said exception is inconsistent and happening for only few users
3. ping and test of jco destinations are successfull in content administration as well as in SLD, destinations were added in the SLD system.
4. cleared the JCO ARFC meta data cache in webdynpro console
5. jco destinations are configured using uid/pwd, configured user is not locked active and tested in the backend by logging in with the same user.
6. restarted the portal server
even though, we are getting the above said exception for few of portal users randomly.
Please help me on this ASAP, as i am not getting any further help on this.
Thanks,
Ram.

Hello Ram,
Check the JCo Pool Configuration settings of your JCO Destination. This message normally comes when the maximum connections has been reached. Increase the "Maximum Connections" to some number depending on the usage. A good habit is to disconnect the jco connection after executing the same in your webdynpro code if you don't want it to be synchronous.
<ModelName>.modelInstance().disconnectIfAlive()
Hope this helps.

What is the option client certificate for user authentication used for?

Hi All,
I have to work on a FTPS - XI -SAP scenario.
I can see an option for client certificate for user authentication when security is enabled for the FTP adapter. what exactly is this option used for?
P.S: I went through sap help but couldnt quite understand.

Thanks a lot Mark.
So for a FTPS -> XI -> SAP scenario the following settings are required.
1. I have to create a certificate in Visual Admin for the XI server , send a csr to a CA and get it signed by them, and i have to add this to the ssl_service view.
2. I have to hand over the public key to the FTPS server & this key will be used for encryption of the file
the above 2 steps are mandatory.
If i choose to use the client certificate option , i have to get the client certificate from the FTPS server and add it into the TrustedCAs list. This certificate is just to imply that the client is what it claims to be.
Will this certificate be used for encryption?
To make it clear let me put it this way. The certificate created in the XI Server is used for encryption and also for ascertaining that the its what it claims to be.
The clients certificate option is used only to make sure that the client is what its claiming to be & this is not used for encryption?

BookmarkDav Client spikes my cpu usage when I start up my computer

Has anyone noticed that the BookmarkDav client spikes the CPU usage when it first starts up? Is this something that can be fixed or is there a problem? Thanks for the help.

It has to startup just like everything else in the system, so it's probably normal

Sign in page for website in development

I was wondering if ADDT could be used to create a blank sign in page for a website beta for clients to sign in without the rest of the world seeing it...

Paul,
That should be fairly easy to do using ADDT's User Login Server Behaviors. You can configure the Login Settings at the ADDT Control Panel. There are a lot of options and I use these behaviors often.
Günter has a nice tutorial called "Login tables:
installation & configuration"
http://www.guenter-schenk.com/tutorials/
So you would create a page with the user login and that would redirect your user to the website beta file/folder on a successful login.
You would also use the "Restrict Access To Page" ADDT User Login Server Behavior. This will make sure others can't get to your pages by typing in the URL directy into the browser. The only drawback here is that all your pages would need to be .php and not .html
Another option is to use your web hosting control panel to restrict access to a folder on your site that contains your website beta. This would be the easiest because you would not have to add code to all the pages to restrict access. Your server would require a username and password when someone goes to that address(example: www.mysite.com/websitebeta).
Unfortunately, the ability to do this depends on your hosting package, so you would need to check that in your hosting control panel. The drawback here might be that you would have to give everyone the same username and password to use. Otherwise you have to add lots of users to your server hosting directy and that might be an issue.
If you use ADDT's user login behaviors, you can gather lots of information about the users activity in your user login stats table. Also, if your website is going to have user accounts anyways, this would be the way to go.
If you just want a simple login to showoff a website, I would give everyone the same user/pass and try to restrict access to a folder using your hosting's control panel. That would much simpler for this scenario.

Need help with Apache self signed client certificates.

At work we use PHPmyadmin to administer our central MySQL database.
In order to access PHPmyadmin we use self signed ssl client certificates, for our developers, so that you can only access phpmyadmin if you have a valid client certificate installed in your browser.
The ssl certificate on the webserver hosting phpmyadmin has expired now and I would like to extend it, preferrably without having to re-genereate client certificates for all users.
I'm a bit confused to the approach. Most howtos I've found deal with extending a webserver certificate. but it really just looks like they generate a new one.
Can anyone help me out with how best to approach this.
Do I simply generate a new Apache Server certificate and then use this to re-sign the existing client certificates?

As the SOAP servlet says: "Sorry, I don't speak via HTTP GET- you have to use HTTP POST to talk to me.", you must use the HTTP POST method and not the GET method to use SOAP.
Use setRequestMethod("POST") of class HttpURLConnection to make your HTTP connection use the POST method.
(I didn't look at all your code).

How do I create an email list sign up form for my iWeb website?

Well that's the question - how do I create an email list sign up form for my iWeb website?
Could someone tell me what's the simplest way using iWeb to create an interactive option
for users to enter their email address and the info be forwarded to me so I can add to an
email list?
It would be great if, since I'm using a Mac computer & iWeb, there was a way to have the
submitted emails automatically added to a group in my Mac Addressbook.
I got this MacBook Pro in Sept 2010 so I believe that's iWeb '08 I'm using.
Anyway I'm thinking there should be a way to do this with some system involving an HTMK
Widget and an email account.
By the way this is for hosting through a 'real server', not MobileMe (which I plan to get later
when I can afford it).
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Mark

Website forms require some code in a snippet and a formmail.php script on the server to process the form and send the info to the required email address. You can do all this when you switch to a "real" server.
In the meantime you can use a form or marketing service or, better still, an application like MailShoot which generates the form, handles the database and sends out the bulk emails.

I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords but it does not work for the macbook.

I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords several times but it does not work for the macbook.

You will have to provide the correct password to delete the existing account, if you have tried but are not getting the password reset email, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

Is there a way to force Adobe Reader to grab the sign on ID for a digital stamp?

I work for a state Agency and we want to use digital stamps as our signatures on our internal documents. I have created the form in LiveCycle and I know that in Adobe Reader by default the stamp will use the person's sign on ID for the stamp and then the person adds their name and other information.
However, if the person right clicks the stamp, and edits the Identity and puts in another sign on ID number, such as their supervisor's and stamps the document, there is no way to tell that both of those stamps, with different sign on IDs and names, were created by the same person.
If there is a script I can enter in LiveCycle, that when the form is opened in Adobe Reader, that would lock the Identity field of a stamp created in Adobe Reader from allowing a change to the sign on ID, then that would solve our problem and maybe the problem for other state agencies wanting to follow suit.
The digital signatures are even worse. I made one in my name, my supervisor's name and my dog's name, attached them all to a document, validated all the signatures and they look absolutely authentic. Why would Adobe make digital signatures like that? If we could just find some evidence within the data showing that all the signatures were applied by the same person or on the same computer, then we could use them. But the stamps at least grab that unique sign on number that we use and applies it to the stamp if the user doesn't alter it.
I'm on a time crunch as we hoped to launch this after the first of the year but our attorneys are saying, "uh, uh" until something can be done to prevent fraud. We have over 3,000 people in our agency so EchoSign would be out of the question.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.

You will not get what you need using stamps, especially if you ever want to use dynamic XFA forms.
The digital signatures that were signed with a self-signed digital ID won't fully validate unless the user chooses to trust the corresponding digital certificate first. You should only trust a digital certificate if you trust its source. The problem is using self-signed IDs will be difficult to use on the scale you're talking about.
Digital signatures are the best approach for your needs. They can provide both nonrepudiation of document origin as well as document integrity. You just have to figure out how to implement a solution you can afford.
You agency can become its own certificate authority and issue certificates to its employees. You'd just have to find a way to implement and manage such a system.

Client app for Windows 8.1/10

Hi all, for a while I have been working with a client application for Windows Phone 8.1, however, I noticed that there is a difference between coding the parts to binding data. I noticed that the WebClient I use in Windows Phone is not supported on Windows
8.1. So what is an alternative? Any help is appreciated
On a side note: Does anyone know of any other UI extensions for Windows 8.1 other than Telerik Primitives?
