Uploads big lists to user tables without admin rights

I have an Oracle database which operates like follows:
1) users upload lists of customers/regions/products in their tables using MS Access + ODBC connection (just copy-paste to open window with linked table)
2) they press a button and Pass-thru query returns results based on step 1
Could I move this GUI to ApEx?
Step 2 is simple SQL Report, but how should step 1 be done?
Users should not be allowed to modify database structure, so standard 'upload from file/spreadsheet' is not a good idea..

Could you describe Step 1 in a little bit more detail? Do users paste a list of customers into a text box, click a button, and then see that list? Or are they using the text box as a filter to limit a larger list?
In any of these cases, it's quite possible that APEX will be able to handle this. But some more details would allow us to confirm that it actually can.
Thanks,

Any one has an idea how to produce a list of users who has admins rights?

CA Forum: Administration
launch query builder from the admin launchpad
enter this query
select * from ci_systemobjects where si_parentid=19
this will give you a list of all the members of the administrators group.
You can experiment with query builder and possibly ask for help in the DEV forum if you need to write a more complex query.

How to get actual user name without admin rights from AD?

Hi,
I have set up WebLogic Portal 8.1.2 to point to Active Directory, using ActiveDirectoryAuthenticatorMBean I'm trying to retrieve the actual user name e.g. John English. Can someone give me some advise what is the proper function to use. I tried getUserDescription but it requires AD admin rights. I can't get admin rights! Is there any workarounds?
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Damon

You might use GLOBAL_NAME, but the result could be not what you need. If you can login to DB server you can use "lsnrctl services" to see how the DB is registered with the listener. See this example :
SQL> sho user
USER is "TEST"
SQL> select * from v$instance;
select * from v$instance
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
SQL> col GLOBAL_NAME for a60
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
ORA9.US.ORACLE.COM
SQL> exit

How to run Power Saver without admin rights

How can I use the power saver (V6.00.04) with a user account without admin rights (Windows XP)? When I login as a "normal" user the lamp icon does not appear in the system tray. When I try to start it manual I get the error message that I don't have the necessary access rights.

@deloop
The Power saver needs admin rights to works successfully.
Either you will assign the admin right s to the user account or the user will be not able to use the power saver utility
You could also try this;
Right click on the power saver.exe and select the properties. There you should find an tab called security.
On my notebook it works but the notebook is set to domain and not to workgroup!

Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and ensure you have updated with your profile with a real handle instead of "866673".
You'll get a faster, more effective response to your questions by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should usually include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB version and edition
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)
<li>Browser(s)/version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Templates
<li>Region type
(although for your question only the APEX version is necessary).
Assuming you mean a user who can authenticate to an application that uses Application Express Account Credentials?
In APEX 4.0:
1. Go to Home > Application Builder > [Your Application ] > Administration > Create Users and Groups > Create User
2. Enter the User Identification information.
3. In the Account Privileges, specify:
User is a workspace administrator: No
User is a developer: No
4. Complete the rest of the form as necessary.

[SBO 2005] Choose from list on User Table

Hi all,
I need an information from the developper that already tried the SDK of BO 2005.
Is it possible to create Choose from List on user tables ?
I looked at the WebEx, there is no restriction about it, but when I tried in the demo, I can't figure out how to do it.
Thanks for your help
Sébastien

Thank for your input Edward:
I do have the sample, but it uses a system table (OCRD, Object Type=2)
It seems that it works for system object or UDO, but not for simple user table. Am I right ?

Subscription - Win7 Installs without Admin rights, shortcuts do not work

I have a Cloud Subscription and have been trying to get things up and running on my PC running Win7 - 64bit.
The Manager downloads and installs the apps, but it appears to do this without Admin rights. i.e.
In the "All Programs" shortcut listing they are shown but without an icon (Just white)
If I try to delete the shorcut I am not allowed to stating that I need Admin Rights... even though I am the only user and of course therefore also have full Admin Rights.
The links do not open the applications.
I have set the install path to C:\Program Files\Adobe, but they appear to be installed in C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe !
Any help would be much appreciated.

If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows then C:\Program Files(x86) would be the correct location to install. As for your Admin rights if you are sure you have full admin rights please try temporarily disabling your User Account Control.

How do I use the maintenance service to upgrade PCs without admin rights?

Our users do not have admin rights on their systems so FireFox is WAY out of date. I read about the Maintenance Service in the wiki and hoped it might allow FireFox to update itself without admin rights. I installed v21 and FireFox does not update itself so I am not sure what to make of things. In fact, it does not even seem to try since click in on Help, About shows "Updates available at http://www.firefox.com"
I have seen some postings indicating others have experienced similar issues with not being able to update as "users", but no solution. I really do NOT want to require our folks use Chrome, which works without any users given its design. Suggestions?

The maintenance service can only be installed by someone that has administrator permissions (you get an UAC alert), so you can only use this service for updating in the background if someone with administrator permissions has installed this service (maintenanceservice_installer.exe).

Enable Flash Player in Mozilla Fire Fox without Admin Rights

Hi,
I am from australia i have a question how do i enable flash player in my system without admin rights. at present there is no access to install software to my system. please help thanks in advance
Regards
John Burns

Hi John,
Admin rights are required for installing Flash Player because it installs to a system-wide location which requires elevated permissions to write to. Due to this, there is no way to install Flash Player without having Admin rights. Since it writes to a system-wide location, any user on the machine with Admin rights can install Flash Player.

Updating software without admin rights?

a few months ago, my mac was assimilated into a Windows active directory and all my admin rights were taken away (security reasons). I am fine with this for the most part, but I do have one problem. I can no longer update my computer's software without admin rights.
Doesn't anyone know a work around for this? You would think there would be a simple way to give udate access to a user, without comprimizing "security".
I am the only mac on the Windows active directory and the only user of this machine...if that's helps.

We have our Macs bound to AD/OD and shutoff Software Update, as well as other items that users should not manipulate while allowing admin access for other purposes.
It takes Apple hardware and software running to accomplish this, but Leopard will allow more of this type control while giving some flexibility to the user - if it is granted.
It's a tough balance - some users know what they're doing, most don't.
As for corporate/gov't IT - SOX compliance has dictated a lot of this, so don't be too hard on the IT guys.
As for timely updates - have you tried pleading your case? I know that if you try, you best have a set of reasons why you need it. If you can't do that, maybe the updates are only a pacifier.

Installing iTunes updates without admin rights

I'm the sys admin for a small IT department. None of the users have admin rights, which means every time an iTunes update comes around, they can't install it.
How can I make this easier for us all, without having to go around to all their machines to install for them, and without giving them admin rights?

+"None of the users have admin rights, which means every time an iTunes update comes around, they can't install it."+
Users without admin rights cannot install their own programs, iTunes or otherwise.
Note that you do not need to install every single iTunes update that comes along. Just upgrade once in while. (I am on 7.6, and doing fine.) The newer versions don't support anything new that your folks are supposed to be doing at work anyway. (-:

Run VHD/VMCX without admin rights?

Hi,
Is it possible to run Windows Virtual PC without Admin rights?
My goal is to have basic users running a Windows XP VHD. I can install the application and set everything up using my admin credentials, but I want to leave the other users as basic or power users.
I've added the users to the power users group and given that group all rights to both the VHD and VMC files. The error the users get is that VPC cant write changes to the VHD.
To add, I'll need to use the integrated features as well. So even if there is a work around for the admin issue, I still need to ensure integrated features works too.
Can this be done?
Thanks,
Jason

Still curious if this is possible.
Thanks for any help!

Using Oracle after install without Admin rights -- Possible?

We are upgrading our company to Windows 7. Clearly, the best practice is to remove admin rights from users. I see lots of posts on inability to install Oracle without admin rights. That makes sense. Once installed though, we are hitting errors simply running Oracle without admin rights. Is there a change in our install methodology that would allow us to run Oracle without Admin rights? Any thoughts would be appreciated. We are having to run wide open right now.
Thanks,
Dave

Davemaybe a bit more detail. It sounds like you are talking about end-user machines, in which case I would only expect the oracle client software to be installed. What exact errors are you getting?

Is there any way to install a plugin without admin rights on windows 7

Hi all,
I've developed a plugin for adobe indesign cs5. I was able to install my plugin(by creating .msi file) into indesign plugins folder, when extension manager is opened as administrator.
I just want to know, if I can install the plugin without admin rights.
FYI: My plugin will add a link to File menu on menubar of the indesign application, clicking which will execute the scripts.
Please let me know if you want any other information.
Thanks for any ideas/support.
Regards,
Srikanth

InDesign will load plugins from the path specified in the PlugInConfig.txt file in the user's InDesign preferences directory, which does not require administrative privileges. See "Using PlugInConfig.txt" on pp.12- of the "Getting Started with the Adobe InDesign CS5 Products SDK" (getting-started.pdf) in the SDK. Specifically:
Using PlugInConfig.txt
1. If InDesign is running, exit it.
2. Create a text file named “PlugInConfig.txt” in the InDesign preference directory, and enter
the following text into it:
=Path
NOTE: The inDesign preference folder is located in the following directory (where <locale> is a
locale-specific subdirectory; for example, en_US for English):
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\
Adobe\InDesign\Version #.#\<locale>
Windows Vista: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\
Adobe\InDesign\Version #.#\<locale>
Mac OS: <user-home>/Library/Preferences/
Adobe InDesign/Version #.#/<locale>
3. Open the PlugInConfig.txt file in a text editor and edit the sections as desired. For example,
the following tells InDesign to load every plug-in in the sdk folder:
=Path
"C:\Adobe InDesign CS5 Products SDK\build\win\debug\sdk
NOTE: The preceding example is only for Windows. On Mac OS, use ‘:’ as the path separator.
NOTE: You also can use a “=Exclude” tag to exclude a certain plug-in from being loaded. This
is useful if you do not want to load everything in the “=Path” folder.
NOTE: This is target specific. You cannot launch the release version of InDeisgn with debug
plug-ins. It is convenient to add both debug and release paths, commenting out the target that is not in use. For single-line comments, use “;” (semicolon).
4. Save the PlugInConfig.txt file.
5. Restart InDesign.
6. Verify the set of plug-ins loaded by selecting the About Plug-ins menu.
