User details on Portal login

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement when user logins immediately his details like name and his ip address have to be stored in log file of server.I have created a par file for fetching user details and updating the log file and added it in default framework page.
When i right click on iview and click preview the log file is getting updated but on logging into portal and on load of framework page log file is not getting updated..Please suggest.
Below is the code how am updating the log file..
private static Location myLoc = Location.getLocation(ipaddress.class);
static {
myLoc.addLog(new FileLog("C:/Logs/TTSL/Anusha.txt"));
Thanks,
Anusha

Set a debug break point to the entry of the component you have wrote. If you are loading the portal with your stuff inside, does NWDS stops there?
cheers

Where does apex get user details from for login in

sorry for this stupid question. I have been looking up in google "where does apex get user details from for login in" and nothing answers my question. Basically I wanted to know when you log in your application how does apex know you have access to this application. How does it know you are a valid user because I am creating an application which basically checks if a user exist in one database and also checks if he/she exist in the second database.
Thanks you and sorry if this is very newbie

In the page 101 which is the login in page in the login in process. I have this in the source its not working in term of it is not letting me login in anymore even though I exist in the user table.
DECLARE
v_access_level number;
BEGIN
SELECT count(*)INTO
v_access_level
FROM USER
WHERE UPPER(USER_NAME) = UPPER(:APP_USER);
IF NVL(v_access_level, 0) !=0 THEN
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
    P_UNAME       => :P101_USERNAME,
    P_PASSWORD    => :P101_PASSWORD,
    P_SESSION_ID => v('APP_SESSION'),
    P_FLOW_PAGE   => :APP_ID||':9'
ELSE
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
    P_UNAME       => :P101_USERNAME,
    P_PASSWORD    => 'YtYuTrFRd',
    P_SESSION_ID => v('APP_SESSION'),
    P_FLOW_PAGE   => :APP_ID||':9'
END IF;
end;
please bare in mind that my USER table DOES NOT have a password because the authentication scheme as all the details of login in to any systems. I am only trying to check if the username exist in my USER table.
Thanks

To add custom user attributes in portal user details

Hi,
I am looking at the possibility of adding custom user information attributes in User details of Portal User. By default there are few tabs provided ( general, account info, contact info, additional information.....). I am planning to have another extra tab (custom tab with some custom fields ) to be developed and accessible through external application. My data source would be AS database.
Not necessary that the custom fields to be visible in the UI. but should be manipulated programatically.
Request inputs on feasibility and also the approach that could be followed.
TIA,
-Naresh

User details change on portal

Hello experts, for some odd reason I have been unable to change user details on portal recently. I am getting the following error: "A problem has occurred in the persistency. The original message was: BAPI_USER_CHANGE@BWPCLNT500: ID=01, NUMBER=492, MESSAGE=You are not authorized to change users in group".
I do have administrator roles and everything, and I used to be able to change user details (like e-mail and language). What I do not understand is why this suddenly stopped working, as it was working before (the funny thing is that even with the default administrator user from Portal it is not possible to change user details anymore). Still, how can I solve this problem? We are using EP 7.0 and another SAP system (ABAP) for user management. I am not in charge of the ABAP system, though I do have access to several transactions in there. I tried looking for the "BAPI_USER_CHANGE" thing, but I could not find it. Is that a role or something I need to assign to my user?

Hi, thanks for the answers. I checked the roles of user SAPJSF. He has SAP_BC_FP_ICF, SAP_J2EE_ADMIN and he previously had SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO, but I changed it for SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICTION. However, once I restarted the Web AS, there was no communication between our backend system and the portal (checking the logs, I found the error "#1#com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (103) RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE: User SAPJSF has no RFC authorization for function group SYST." Therefore I added the role SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO role, without taking out the other one, and restarted the server. There is now communication between the backend system and the portal, but I still cannot change user details from within the portal.
Any other ideas?

Hello electrazy,
This is not possible from within the IDK. The best you can get are the Extended Data properties that are associated with the user object in the Global Property Map. If you want to get user information like the authentication name and the login name, you'll have to use the Portal Server API or directly query the database.

To get login details of portal into webdynpro application

Hi All,
How to get the portal login details(user name) into my webdynpro application.
Thank you,
Harsha P.

Hi,
If you want to have portal login details from backend system (with ABAP) you should ask this question in some portal forum and ask if it is possible. This has nothing to do with workflow or UWL. Even if you get the portal user ID to the backend system, then what? Do you want to manipulate the portal roles etc. from your ABAP WD application? Then you will have even more complicated requirements to achieve with ABAP. It is not that straightforward to call different portal functionalities from backend system. You might need to do some "portal development". And eventually your ABAP WD application might come just an unnecessary wrapper component for calling some web services or whatever in portal.

Hi,
I wnt to access SAP Portal login user in my ejb application which resides on the same server.
I am using following code

Some additional jar files are required for this?
The same code works fine with webDynpro but not with ejb.

Portal User details and credentials for a J2EE application?

Hi,
I am trying to access a J2EE application which is deployed in SAP Web Application Server. I want to maintain the security of this application depending the portal user. So I want to get the user id of the portal login to my J2EE application. For Example:
A user with id "super" is logging into portal I want the userid "super" in my J2EE application how to get the userid to my J2EE application's servlet. Is this possible? If possible please tell how I can acheive it?
Can I do it by creating HTTP System? If possible can u tell me where can I set the URL?
Thanks,
Ashok.

hi,
Certainly you can get the user id of the portal login in your J2EE application by using UME api's
IUserFactory userFact = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
getUserFactory().getUser(String uniqueID)
getUserFactory().getUserByLogonID(String logonID)
Also have a look at this
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/15/abdc3ed98f7650e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Instead of url iview, it would be better to use AppIntegrator
Also have a look at this

Details regarding Portal users vs 8i DB users

Is there a good DBA level explanation of the differences between a PORTAL/SSO user and a normal database user?
It appears we have to set up new users in Portal for all of our existing users in the database (painful). This was not required in Webdb. Is there a way to import existing database users and link them to their existing schemas painlessly?
The bits and pieces I can find indicate that if you do go ahead and set up a new Portal user manually and link them to their own existing database user schema then the normal database objects roles and rights should appear. This does not seem to be true in 3.0.8 Portal. I created a portal user, assigned them to their existing 8.1.7 schema and:
1) the normal database objects they have rights to do NOT show up in the browse database objects. In Webdb 2.2. all of these objects show up fine. The ability to browse database objects was one of the good things about Webdb that we need to preserve.
2) try to create a portal component, a form, based on a table/view. Unlike #1 above I can in fact create the form on an existing table even though it does not show up in the browse above. The user has update rights to this table, but the form will NOT compile if I leave in the UPDATE, DELETE, INSERT buttons. What is going on?
Is there a technical paper that discusses exactly how to map db users to portal users and how to transfer rights, privileges etc. so we can make portal 3.0 as functional as webdb 2.2 was?

Quinn,
Here are my answers:
1) the normal database objects they have rights to do NOT show up in the browse database objects. In Webdb 2.2. all of these objects show up fine. The ability to browse database objects was one of the good things about Webdb that we need to preserve.
Ans))
You have better control on this ability now.
2) try to create a portal component, a form, based on a table/view. Unlike #1 above I can in fact create the form on an existing table even though it does not show up in the browse above. The user has update rights to this table, but the form will NOT compile if I leave in the UPDATE, DELETE, INSERT buttons. What is going on?
Ans))
The ability to create a component in Oracle Portal 3.0 no longer depends on whether the developer has privileges to build components in a schema, but instead on whether the developer has privileges to build a component in an application.
=====
Is there a technical paper that discusses exactly how to map db users to portal users and how to transfer rights, privileges etc. so we can make portal 3.0 as functional as webdb 2.2 was?
Ans))
Read the following help:
a) Migrating WebDb users to Oracle Portal.
b) What are schema and object privileges?
c) What are global privileges?
d) What's the difference between an Oracle Portal User & an Oracle Database User?
====================
Now the next question is..Where to find them?
Here are the location:
login > Navigator > Database Objects tab>
Click on "Grant Access" > Click on the context help.
Here under the related topics you will find:
(b). Click on it:
Again under the related topics you will find:
(a) & (d) (Both are same).
For (c):
login > Create a user > edit that user > click on "Privileges" tab > context help.
Hope this will clear your doubts...
Thanx,
Chetan.

How to get the User Details inoformation in portal?

I had defined the user informations in "Portal User Details". But i don't know how to get it and what the user table is?
for example: How to get the email address of user i have defined in portals?
Tank you very much!
Ghia Liu
Genesyslogic.com.tw

You would use the portal API's for this, there is one named wwsec_api.person_info that returns a record with the specified user's information, such as first name, lsat name, email, telephone, etc - a pretty long list. With release 2 of portal the data is no longer stored in the wwsec_person$ table as it was in release 1 so use the API (which actually is how I would normally do it in release 1 as well).
To get more documentation on portal API's go to: http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/plsql/doc/astart.htm
Hope that this helps you - enjoy the day!

Retriving user details from user rofile in portal database

HI all,
any one knows how to retrive user details from user rpofile in portal database. I am using webdynpro appliction.Please reply.
Thank you
Maruthi

Hi maruti Rao ,
All Gives U gud Idea..here i give u some brief procedure.First of all u need to add 2 jar file in ur project structure for proper working of "com.sap.security.api.IUser" Interface. After that for retriving Users data Stored on LDAP Server.
If you are using an LDAP directory as a data source for your user-related data, the logical attribute names used by the Java application programming interface (API) of SAP User Management Engine (UME) must be mapped to the physical attribute names used in the schema of your corporate LDAP directory.
Example Data-Source File is as Below From Where U can Get All The Information of Logged user...

LDAP user details not showing in Portal UME

We have implemented kerberos single sign on using the kerberos xml datasource file and have the corporate LDAP as our UME source.
However certain user details that are maintained in LDAP (such as department, street etc) are not being pulled through to the portal UME.
We know the connection to the LDAP is OK as we can create new users and they appear in portal UME - its just that it seems to be missing several user attributes.
Is this related to the settings in the xml file?
And if so, what needs changing??
thanks
Simon.

Hi Simon,
all the attributes that are available in your LDAP can be made available in the UME via the dataSourceConfiguration. The default files does not include every attribute since these may vary from directory to directory. Please take a look at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/b7/14d43f2dd44821e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
