Unable to create Policy Definitions in CM 4.1.1c

Question

I'm trying to create a Policy Definition and assign it to an Application I created, but I when I click Submit an error pops up stating:
Transaction not completed. Policy entry cannot be updated as there is no policy entry of type Other. Please create a policy of type Other or update the type of this policy to Other.
I want this Policy to be type Basic, not Other, and there is a type Other - which I'm not choosing. So why is this error popping up? I first tried this using version 4.1.1d, but it failed so I downgraded to 4.1.1c and it still fails.
I've attached a Word document with a few screen shots showing the error, and the fact that there is a type Other, even though I don't want to use it.
Am I doing this wrong or have I stumbled on a bug?

Answer 1

Hello,
Read "Create Download Page for Embedded PL/SQL Gateway" section in following documentation.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e13363/up_dn_files.htm#CIHDDJGF
<li> The first option is to modify the PL/SQL function WWV_FLOW_EPG_INCLUDE_MOD_LOCAL to include the PL/SQL download_my_file procedure and then recompile
<li> The second, described below, is to create a page in the application that has a before header branch to the PL/SQL download_my_file procedure. You then create a hidden item on that page for the document ID of the document to be downloaded.
I like and have used second option because, you can re-use apex specific features like Authorization schemes etc.
Please note that if you want to invoke custom procedures via URL, then you should allow them at web-server level. Above documentation explains this for EPG.
