URL for a generic student acct to open private site possible?

Apologies if this has already been discussed, but I couldn't find any related information in these boards or in the admin guide. We're in the process of setting up both public and private sites. We want our students to be able to access our iTunes U private site with an URL from our private student portal. Is it possible to set up just one generic student account for this purpose?
Thank you,
Lucy

Lucy,
I'm not sure I'm following you here ... lemme restate your question the way I'm reading it. If I'm not reading you correctly, just say and I and the other iTunes U gurus will try to help.
It "sounds" to me as if you're asking just to have a single URL ... a URL that never changes ... on your web portal to your private site. You'd authenticate your people (using your authentication system), but you would, essentially, have a very simple transfer setup. It'd work like this:
1. Students get to your private website's login page.
2. They authenticate.
3. If their authentication is successful, you go to another page with a single static link (a link that never changes) that gets students into your iTunes U site with a "generic" student identity.
If that's the case, the basic problem that you have is that iTunes U URLs that have credentials attached are timed ... they only live for 90 seconds ... and you have to sign the URL with a time stamp (it's also encrypted in your signature).

  • Drop-down Menu to Open URL for File Download

    I am using Adobe Captivate 5.5 and was wondering if it is possible to create a drop-down menu that can be used to open different URLs for file downloads, kind of like the Attachments button Presenter has. Captivate seems to have a dropdown widget available but I can't tell if this would work for this purpose.

    Hi Theo
    You can use any composition to create a menu with setting for show target on rollover and then link targets to specific pages.

  • URL for directly open/edit Service ticket  in WebUI

    Dear all,
    I try to find solution within this forum. I found similar case with solutions but still not quiet clear to me.
    The requirement is to use one URL to open directly to the specific CRM Document in display/edit mode.
    in CRM 7.0
    Thanks
    Kiran prasad

    Look at this link: URL for directly open/edit CRM Document in WebUI
    As it is sad in the post you must generate the following structure of url: http://xxx:xxx?crm-object-type=xxx&crm-object-action=x&crm-object-keyname=xx&crm-object-value=xx
    or you can use even simpler url: http://xxxx?crm-object-type=xxxcrm-object-value=xx
    xxxx - link to your logon page
    xxx - name of BT component for service ticket
    xx - guid of specific service ticket

  • Site not Opening as it is saying Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1033/style library/lg/jquery-1.9.1.js

    Please can any one help on this
    When try to open site it is giving this error 
    Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1033/style library/lg/jquery-1.9.1.js
    but same site is opening for other users

    Solution 1 :Deploy your script files under Style Library of your site.
    if it is not working try the below
    Sometimes you will get the error as "Cannot make a cache safe URL for "1033/sp.debug.js", file not found. Please verify that the file exists under the layouts directory. " For this you can copy the sp.debug.js file and put it inside C:\Program Files\Common
    Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033.
    - Another solution is you can add Localizable = false  attribute to SharePoint:ScriptLink like below:
    <SharePoint:ScriptLink language="javascript" name="/foldername/JS/newjsfile.js" Localizable = false runat="server"/>
    - Apart from this you can also give file path simply using script tag like below (provided file should be deployed inside StyleLibrary):
    <script src="/Style%20Library/foldername/scripts/slides.min.jquery.js"type="text/javascript"> </script>

  • Generic HTTP URL For Multiple Interfaces

    Hi All,
    Please suggest on the following requirement. I am using PI 7.31 Single stack (Java only version).
    There are multiple HTTP to Proxy interfaces and each interface has different source structure.
    The requirement is --- How to utilize a single HTTP URL for all the interfaces.
    The major challenge is the source structure for all the interfaces is different.
    Kindly Suggest....
    Regards,

    Hi Nitin,
    One solution is to create one sender interface (with either multiple operation of each interface or having all structure in different node and optional occurrence), then use operation specific mapping.

    How can i find the URL for the new Nightly start page as i want to use it in the new tab so it is the same as the home page . i use the nightly start page as home page too

    hello caseyvan, "about:home" is the url for the default firefox/nightly start page. you can set that as a new tab page when you can enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) and search for the preference named '''browser.newtab.url'''. double-click the entry & change it to any site you want to show up on a new tab.

  • Using a variable to insert into a URL for redirecting clients

    I got a good one, can anyone help on this?
    Using RoboHelp Version 8.02.208.
    My company uses MicroStrategy to deploy several web-based data analysis products.
    Each of these data products (there are 5) are deployed on different servers.
    I have set up a single source WebHelp project and use build tags for product specific help output.
    (I also have to modify the Start Page, TOC and Default Topic settings prior to generating each product help)
    Everything on this works fine and is not a problem.
    We have just implemented an Excel add-in for one of the products.
    That add-in uses a locally installed CHM file for its help.
    In order to provide customized help that can be updated without forcing the clients to reinstall the CHM help file locally, the source for the CHM file has one dummy topic. In that topic, I have used HTML code to redirect the client to the WebHelp for the product and have integrated the Excel add-in help to that product’s customized help. The result is that the CHM file is opened locally in the HTML help viewer. Inside the HTML help viewer window, I open the WebHelp.
    The redirect HARD CODES the URL with the product specific server name and Start Page help topic.
    That works fine and is not a problem for ONE PRODUCT.
    We are in the process of adding this Excel add-in to other products.
    Now here is where I cannot get this to work with my implementation.
    The URL for each product is different and to make matters worse, the Start Page is different for each product as well.
    So, I am working on options for implementation of multiple products and here is my question:
    (1)    The following is an example of the redirect in the single topic of the CHM file:
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=https://server.com/ProductName/WebHelp/StartPage.htm#mergedProjects/ExcelPlugIn/ Overview.htm" />
    (2)    The red portion of the URL above will need to be modified to support each individual product with a custom server, product name and start page HTM file name.
    Is there a way to:
    (1)    Add a variable in this HTML code
    (2)    Once the product is identified, update the variable with the product specific URL content
    (3)    Integrate the variable into the target URL of the HTML code that does the redirect
    I think this is either not possible or more work than needed. My other option is to provide standalone Excel add-in help on a server and just have the Excel plug-in go to that (right now it is integrated into the product specific help and the client has access to the plug-in help AND the application help all at the same place).
    Thanks to all in advance for any help/suggestions.
    Michael F Weart
    [email protected]

    Thanks for the feedback - here is more informtion on the challenges of this implementation:
    I can only distribute one CHM file to cover all 5 web-based products that can be accessed through the Excel plug-in.
    Regardless of which of our 5 products is used to install the plug-in on the client's local hard drive, the same installer is used.
    That one CHM file is installed locally on the client's hard drive.
    (The out of the box CHM file for the plug-in only has general plug-in help content the locl install causes problems for updating the content).
    We needed to be able to easily update the help without inconveniencing the clients.
    So, I am not creating 5 different CHM files for each installer, since there is only one installer regardless of how many of the 5 products they have.
    The plug-in has a server setting and web service setting for each product and the client must choose which they are accessing when they fire up the plug-in.
    They may be accessing the plug-in for any of our 5 web-based products they have subscriptions for.
    Which means, the one CHM file must be able to:
    (1) determine the product they are accessing
    (2) direct to one of the 5 servers with the online help.
    Each of the 5 online helps are deployed on separate servers with different URL links (and the helps have all different URL links as well).
    These online webhelp outputs have some identical content but also some customized content for the specific product they are actually accessing.
    My original approach was pretty much the same as William's above. Have a variable in the CHM help, determine the server they are accessing from the plug-in and insert the customized portion of the URL to access the appropriate webhelp.
    Keep the ideas/suggestions coming.
    I also have a development person looking into how to update a variable on the CHM side to populate the URL.

  • Web Location URLs for Office 2007 documents (pptx, xlsx, docx) not working

    In our current Content Server solution implemented, each content has a Web Location URL and a Native File associated with it. The Web Location URL(for a content in Public security group) is of the following format:
    http://ucmurl/groups/public/intranetcontent/CONTENT_ID.doc
    So far when a user clicks on this link, they are just presented with an 'Open' 'Save' dialog box, which clearly shows that UCM identifies this file format. So for a Word 2003 document called test.doc, the Open-Save dialog box says:
    Name: test.doc
    Type: Microsoft Word document..etc.
    The behaviour is the same for all Office 2003 documents, pdfs and images. However, it seems like UCM does not identify Office 2007 documents. When I check-in a content - test.pptx, and click on the Web Location URL, it prompts me to Open/Save a 'ZIP' file, which is what UCM does for any unidentified file formats.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    The file formats under configuration manager have been updated to include the following formats with PASSTHRU conversion (since we dont need any conversion on these):
    pptx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
    docx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
    xlsx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
    The desired functionality is that when the user clicks on web location url, UCM should identify these file formats, and NOT consider them as ZIP files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try these - if you're using IIS. If not, them something similar should fix.
    Update IIS to include additional MIME types
    Also, if you want to add all of the Microsoft Office 2007 mime-types to IIS in one step you can do this:
    1. Stop IIS
    2. Edit the metabase XML file (C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml) using a text editor.
    3. Search for the <IIsMimeMap Location="/LM/MimeMap" …> element and append the lines below to the MimeMap attribute
    .docm,application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12
    .docx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document

  • Pbm with document name while generating URL for created document

    Hi Gurus,<br>
    <br>
    When we upload a document and generate the URL for that document, and then while we paste the same in the explorer window to access it, I was able to see the dialog asking me whether to save or open the document with the <B>actual document name</B>.<br>
    <br>
    But, when I create a document using the template which we uploaded in SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN, and then generate the URL for that document, and then when I paste it in the explorer window to access it, the dialog now asks me to save or open the document, but it is not with the name of the <b>actual document</b>, but with the name of the <b>template</b>. <br>e.g <b>Business_Blueprint_template</b>.<br>
    <br>

    Hello Sanketh,
    1. To access the NW04s configuration guide,
        - Go to https://service.sap.com/adobe
        - On the left frame (tree), under Adobe > Media Library > Documentation
        - On the right had pane you will find the link to the NW04s Configuration guide
    2. The link that you have mentioned below details the steps required to be carried out on the client machine that consumes the Adobe Document Services. In our case that is the j2ee engine on which your Web Dynpro application is running. It could be the same physical machine with two different j2ee instances hosting Web Dynpro and ADS or it could be two different physical machine or a single machine having a single instance of j2ee engine hosting both the Web Dynpro and the ADS.
    You do not have to create a separate username and a password on the consuming machine but you need to configure the Web Service client proxy to point to the ADS (maybe hosted on a different machine) with the username and the password created on the ADS server. As you have mentioned, you have already created such an user on the ADS (ADSUser). This user authentication on the client machine (consuming server - Web Dynpro) would be required at the runtime by the j2ee engine to authenticate itself with the ADS.
    Best Regards,
    Krish

  • END point URL for ESB Routing service says NOT FOUND

    Hi All,
    For the routing services in ESB, The link of WSDL is opening up fine, but the link of endpoint URI for the routing service is failing with the message below message. When i invoke the WSDL using SOAP UI, i get back the the same error message. I tried bouncing the server , but of no help. I also notice that slide directory ESB_Projects gives 404 error on any browser.
    So when i click below url for any of the routing service

    if you got the file then the port is closed.
