Import a user dump into Oracle 8i Database

Please help, I tried to import a user dump file to Oracle 8i Database by command line (imp system/manager@instance).
However, reture a message with" imported successful with warning". And I couldn't connect the database with the new user login.
Any advice?

Hi,
I
1) export the data from your source database XE
C:\WINDOWS\system32>exp userid=USER1@XE1 file=user1.dmp
2) in the target XE database you would have to recreate the same user, e.g. USER1
3) run imp on the same dump file:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>imp userid=USER1@xe2 file=user1.dmp full=yes ignore=yes

Need help with external user authentication

Hello,
I need some help to set up an external user authentication in Oracle DB 10g. Using the documentation at
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/OsAuthentication.php
I added the user alex to my linux system and checked the parameter os_authent_prefix:
SQL> show parameter os_authent_prefix
NAME TYPE VALUE
os_authent_prefix string ops$
SQL>
I created the oracle user alex using
CREATE USER alex IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY;
as well as
CREATE USER ops$alex IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY;
The parameters in the sqlnet.ora are set to
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (TNSNAMES, HOSTNAME, EZCONNECT)
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (ALL)
Being the local user alex on the linux server I can login:
$ sqlplus /

Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production

Now using a Windows Client:

Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Kennwort eingeben:
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
- So, what's wrong?
- Do I always have to create oracle users with the prefix "ops$" to the local username? How do these users login - with or without the prefix 'ops$'?
- I read that kerberos authentication is only available through oracle advanced security addon. What about authentication through ldap?

Obviously it doesn't work from any remote system.
For this to happen the parameter remote_os_authent would have been set to true.
Warning: this poses a security risk.
As far as I know you should have been logged in as alex on the client, and using sqlplus /
However, from 10g onwards Oracle comes with Oracle Wallet, which stores the password encrypted outside the database in a file, called wallet, and which is accessible from anywhere.
You would better use that.

I cannot log into oracle using the user scott

I installed oracle, but I did not go through the underlined step. I am not sure if I skipped or it was not there during the installation
The Database Configuration Assistant will provide installation summary
and list the accounts that are unlocked. It will ask you for password management. Sys
and System accounts would be already unlocked. Unlock HR and Scott accounts,
and for these two accounts also specify the same password that you had given before.
When I test logging into Oracle using the user Scott, it shuts down.
I am using windows 7, and I installed Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0)
Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
How can I log into oracle using the user Scott?

Hi,
Welcome to the forum,
After installing Oracle 10g SCOTT user will be in locked, you should unlock it.
Login as sysdba using the below command
sqlplus sys as sysdba
password:<ur password>
after connecting as sysdba use the below command to unlock the SCOTT user
ALTER USER SCOTT ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
Now connect as scott you will bw able to connect.

Using Proxy User Authentication in Sql Developer

Hi!
Is it possible to use proxy user authentication in SQL Developer? I'm thinking that if I'm clever enough, I can craft a custom jdbc URL that will allow my users to proxy authenticate into my Oracle 10gR2 database while using SQL Developer.
Unfortunately, I'm not feeling all that clever. ;)
Can anybody help me out here? Is it even in the realm of possibility?
Thanks!
Kevin Ferlazzo
DBA

I found the possibility that proxy authentication of both accounts can be enforced:
SQL> alter user appuser grant connect through personaluser AUTHENTICATION REQUIRED;
I guess that this is the motivation for implementing the 2-session proxy connection method in SQL Developer.

Error in programmatic user authentication

Hi All,
I have the same problem related in this thread:
Problem in Programmatic User Authentication
Here the solution was to use OC4J 9.0.3 instead of OC4J 9.0.4
Is there another solution ?
Thanks in advance
Benito

Navid,
I was looking in the other thread and there was a problem related to validating the user, and also one concerning the dms.jar. I assume that you are referring to the former. Can you please state your current summary of the problem?
The main difference between running in Embedded OC4J and deploying to OC4J is the following: Running in Embedded OC4J you might have a different set of jar files you run against. You can check the jars used in JDeveloper 10g by choosing the menu option Tools - Embedded OC4J Preferences. Then choose Libraries (there is one Libraries entry under Global, and one under Current Worksparce). This set of libraries is probably different from the one in the EAR file.
* You could try making them the same and see if that helps.
* You could also try using the JDeveloper deploy tool to create an EAR file instead of the Ant script (if you are using Ant now).
* You can also try to deploy to the standalone OC4J that is included with JDeveloper. In the WebServices tutorial at http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe9051jdev/WebServicesOBE/OBEWebServices.htm it is described how to do that. If this works, there is a difference in the way OC4J 9.0.4 is installed or configured (or the patch level).
Besides trying to solve the differences between Embedded OC4J and standalone OC4J, I would like to point out the following: I noticed that bug 3412804, which could well be the one you are running into, is fixed in a patch set for OC4J 9.0.4, but is not fixed yet in OC4 10.1.2 (see backport bug 4135710). Did you test with OC4J 9.0.4 after applying the patch for bug 3412804? See MetaLink for more information (http://metalink.oracle.com).
hope this helps,

Any pointers on implementing user authentication in Adobe AIR application ?

Hello
I am using an AIR 3.0 to create my client that connects to my server LCDS application that uses oracle XE database. I now need to implement the user authentication & access controls to GUI screens. Any pointers that show best practices in this regard or get me started...
thanks
RK

You can use the mechanisms built into the AMF protocol, or manage the session manually by passing around an authentication token generated on the server.
Here is some basic info on AMF sessions: http://livedocs.adobe.com/blazeds/1/blazeds_devguide/help.html?content=services_security_5 .html
It's written for BlazeDS, but the principal is the same.

Using alter user to change oracle password for logged in web user on XE

Hi All
I'm building an app using the pl/sql web toolkit on XE (installed on Win XP Pro SP2). (I'm not using the APEX front-end).
I'm using basic authentication and oracle database user accounts, and when a user registers for the first time I create them an oracle user account with dynamic sql, followed by some initial setup stuff, and they then log in with it.
All fine so far.
However I want to allow the user to change their oracle password as part of maintaining their user details. I've done this in the past using the web toolkit and Oracle 9i and it has worked fine using dynamic sql.
Unfortunately I can't get the same thing to work in XE.
For example, if I create the following procedure in the schema aligned to the DAD which holds my application and then run it from a browser (IE or Firefox) then the
Browser and the db just hangs - not even an error message:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ut
AS
v_stmt varchar2(300);
BEGIN
HTP.htmlOpen;
HTP.headOpen;
HTP.title ('User Test');
HTP.headClose;
HTP.bodyOpen;
v_stmt := 'alter user "'||user||'" identified by "BERT"';
htp.print(v_stmt);
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_stmt;
htp.print('Done');
HTP.bodyClose;
HTP.htmlClose;
END;
If I run the same statement in SQL*plus it's fine, and if I run the same proc for a different user then it's fine too.
I'm sure it's something to do with trying to change the credentials of the currently logged in user, but I would at least have expected an error message.
I'd be grateful for any ideas.
Thanks
Steve

Hi g.myers
Thanks for your response.
Sorry, yes, bad turn of phrase there. It's not the entire db that hangs. The web browser (either IE or FF) hangs, and if I look at v$session at this point, I can see that the user STATUS=ACTIVE and the STATE=WAITING.
I should also point out that I am using standard Oracle users as users of the application, (e.g. create a new user account called TESTER1). These users are then granted the appropriate privileges on the owning schema in order to run the app, access the tables etc.
Therefore it is the user account (e.g. TESTER1) that is running the password change procedure that is owned by the SYS schema. (However again, this is the exact code and method that I've used in the past and it has worked fine).
If I leave the browser hanging long enough, it will eventually return with the following error:
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /h/hopapp.pwdmaint_do.
Reason: Error reading from remote server

Hi
Why are you trying to import BPM zip file are you trying to configure the out of the box workflows?
They are something that need to be deployed from the process admin on BPM.
There would be the .exp file you would need as its BPM 10g that you would need to use.

User Authentication for subfolder not working in Web Browser

We are using Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.3 and Database Server 10.2.0.5 for our application.
One of the functionalities of the Application is to send emails with attachments.
The logic is that the Application would generate the attachment file on the Application Server.
Then a database package uses Oracle's utl_http package/procedures(more specifically utl_http.request_pieces where the single argument is a URL) to pick up the file from the Application Server via URL, attach the file and send the email.
Exchange and Relay Server is also set in the Application.
The problem is that the folder containing the folder which stores the attachments is having user authentication set.
Example : The main folder is /apps/interface, this folder requires a valid user when it is accessed via URL on a web browser.
Alias created in httpd.conf
Alias /int-dir/ "/apps/interface/"
The folder /apps/interface/email/ is the folder where the attachment files are generated and stored.
Application Server : 10.12.213.21
Database Server : 10.12.213.22
Email Server : 10.12.213.44
Configuration as per httpd.conf
Alias /int-dir/ "/apps/interface/"
<Location /int-dir/>
AuthName "Interface folder"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile "/u01/app/oracle/as10g/oasmid/Apache/Apache/conf/.htpasswd"
require user scott
</Location>
<Location /int-dir/email>
Options Indexes Multiviews IncludesNoExec
     Order deny,allow
     Deny from all
     Allow from 10.12.213.21
     Allow from 10.12.213.22
     Allow from 10.12.213.44
</Location>
Using the above configuration the Application is able to attach the files and send the email, however, when we access the following URL :
http://10.12.213.21:7778/int-dir/ - it prompts for user authentication
However if we use the following URL :
http://10.12.213.21:7778/int-dir/email/ - it does not prompt for user authentication, and all the files in the folder are displayed in the browser.
I have tried so many things including AllowOverride, .htaccess, but i am not able to get user authentication for the email folder.
Please help me if you can.
Thanking you in advance,
GLad to give any more information that i can.
