User info in captivate 2

I am currently working on designing some quiz's that require
a name to be entered and then shown on the results page. I have hit
a wall and cant figure out how to take a text entry box and have it
show on the results page. Help please!!!

Hi atraintobrkin and welcome to our community
This is because Captivate does not have this functionality.
You need a Flash widget to do this. If you shoot me an E-Mail
message to captiv8r (at) kc (dot) rr (dot) com, I'll be happy to
send you a couple of files you may use to do this.
Cheers... Rick

Getting the User Info while Invoking the Process

Hi All,
    We have created few processes and are working fine.. Now we got a new request to enable the Site Minder authentication for each request. In our project the LiveCycle process is getting invoked from a Flex code via SOAP end point. Flex application is authenticating the request by reading the info from the request object sent by the Site Mider. Is there a way in LiveCycle process to read information from the browser request object? Our application is not linked with LDAP. We wanted to know the user id that was passed as part of the Site Minder authentication and use it in the rest of the services.
    Thank you for your time and help..
Regards
Srini

Jasmin,
         Thank you for your reply. What you are saying is, the Parent app which is invoking the LiveCycle process needs to read the Request object and then pass the user info to the LiveCycle process.
         So we do not have a way to read the browser cookie information from the LiveCycle process. Just want to confirm..
Thanks
Srini

Logged-in user info doesn't display after the user updates their info

I created 2 pages. Page 1 has a recordset that displays only the users username and password, I did a filter on this recordset as username = session var = MM_Username. when they click update, which is just a link to page 2, they go to page 2 which has a recordset that filters their user info the same way and allows them to update their username and password. I used an update behavior on this page as well. So, when the user updates their info it DOES change the database info and works great.
The problem: When the user goes back to page 1 to see their updated username and password that they just updated, it is BLANK. no info displays on screen, even when I refresh the page. it's if the MM_Username var is not refreshing while logged-in. Because when the user logs out and logs back in, it DOES display new username and password on page 1.
Now it DOES work when I take the filter off of page 1's recordset, but this won't do me any good b/c the user should of course only see their info.
I am running DW CS3, php, and mysql.
Please Help! thanks.

Creating a new webpage using PhP based on user info

Hey all! I'm going to try and explain this the best I can, I dont think it's too complicated but we'll see
On my website, what I want to have happen is when a user registers (First name, last name. username, password, email) and hits the "register!" buttton, a new webpage is created that has all of the users info displayed (well, almost everything )
example is someone browses to my website at www.slaughtergaming.com , goes to my register page, and creates an account with the name 'nyius'. a webpage is then created using the users username (so something like www.slaughtergaming.com/nyius) in which anyone can visit and see all of my info (username, first and lastname, email, etc)
I hope that pretty much sums it up.. if you need some code from my website ill be glad to poste it

Yes that could work i suppose ^^
how would I check to see which user is viewing the page, then load all of the relavent users info?
Right now when the user logs in, their username and password is saved in the session, so I assume i just need some script that checks who is logged in and then load their info respectively?

JAAS LoginModule j_security_check and user info

Hello there,
I successfully implemented custom LoginModule which validates users against passwords stored in database by calling some server api's. I am using container managed security via j_security_check servlet.
This is working fine, now I just wonder what is the best way to store additional information about user like name, surname email and make them accessible to JSP/JSF pages.
I did not found any link from LoginModule to HttpSession so I am stuck on this. Ideally I would like to store this additional info immediately after user is successfully authenticated by LoginModule.
Any hint on this?
ferdo

Frank, thanks for comments.
Yes user info is in the sama database so I can get it from there, but I would like to call this DB function once after succesfull authentication. In addition we have kind of 2 level passwords in place, one application password and one internal db password for user to access database resources.
User does not know his/her db password, we have just api to get db password after authentication and existing application api (developed for forms client originaly) assumes user access db by his own connection, so in many api's oracle function user is stored in some tables.
So what I need is after authentication of user (with application password) I can get Oracle password and then make new DB connection to all application api, just would like to store Oracle password (or new user db connection )somewhere so I dont need to fetch it everytime I need to call application API.

The [repo_proxy 13] error seems to be a catch-all for BO in that I've worked with this software (XI R2) for 1 1/2 years now and each time I've encountered [repo_proxy 13] it has been for a different reason, thus, you're going to have to apply troubleshooting checks all over the place until you find the problem. In my particular case I just resolved my [repo_proxy 13] error I've been working on this week, and here was my scenario. Our server in the lab died due to a hard drive failure, so we cut our losses and installed a new & more powerful server. When the rebuild was done I could not connect from my laptop to the repository via Designer (good old [repo_proxy 13] error). After much angst, etc, etc I found out that the servers in the CMC (/businessobjects/enterprise115/admin/en/admin.cwrwere">http://<server>/businessobjects/enterprise115/admin/en/admin.cwrwere) were all down except for one (even though CCM showed all servers "up"). When I went to start the servers in the CMC I was prompted for an account, and no matter what account I tried it won't work. So I went back to the CCM servers and stopped them all, then changed the default account it was using from LocalSystem to the administrator account, restarted all servers in CCM, went back to CMC and noted that all servers were now up as well. Then I went back to my laptop and used Designer and was able to successfully log in. Thus, the end of my story, however, it seems that many [repo_proxy 13] errors have different beginning and endings. For instance, a year ago I had the same [repo_proxy 13] error and brought it to BO tech support. They determined that I had to uninstall my client from my laptop, clean out the registry for any references to BO keys, and remove the c:\program files \Business Objects folder, then reinstall, and sure enough it worked in that case, but not in this case when I tried it again. By digging deeper I found out the root cause to my current problem, and voila, I'm in!
Good luck!

Changing a username in Active Directory - does this update People picker, User Info List etc?

What happens in SP2013 when a user gets married and changes their name in AD?
My understanding is that after a full (?) User Profile import and a People crawl (Full/inc?) - their display name in SharePoint will be updated but in SP2013 do the entries in People picker and User Info Lists also get updated or are their manual steps
that have to be taken?
Thanks
J

First, User Profiles will be updated after the next incremental sync. SP 2013 only does Full User Profile syncs manually. A full sync is not really required.
Second, there are two timer jobs that will sync the user profile with the user lists in each site collection. The "Quick" job only syncs new users, while the "Full" job should sync all user changes. The "Full" job
runs hourly by default.
Third, the people picker should be getting its info from AD, although there is some caching that goes on. So it should pick up the change from AD when the cached information ages out.

Lost user info

I seem to have lost my user info. I basically use the palm desktop software as my address book on my computer and don't use the hand held. One day recently my user information seems to have been deleted. I am suddenly back to 0 - there is no information and user is "none". Is there a way to find it? I have had he Palm since ? 2000 ?
I got a new macbookpro in October and have been using the Palm desktop successfully until last week. I have a "Palm" and a "Palm 2" in my applications folder and more Palm folders in my documents folders from ? now or when the mac people transferred my info from the old to the new computer. and I see more than one user "marcia reid marsted" which I what I have used. I am afraid to open them as there are more than one. I am confused as to what to do and lots of info I don't want to lose! Help!
Thanks
Post relates to: Palm m100

If you are showing different users in the Palm desktop it will not hurt to switch to them to see if your data is under one of them. Sometimes what happens with Macs is the Palm Desktop loads up a 'None' user and there isn't any data under that user. Switching to the correct user resolves this in everycase.
This is possibly caused by the Palm desktop loading up before the OS finishes loading.

How to retrieve users info

does anyone Knows how to retrieve the users info.
for example if I want to create a LOV that contains the emails of all the users.
thanks in advance.

Retrieve them using and LDAP Search via DBMS_LDAP. Or you could cheat and search the ODS schema tables directly which contain all of the LDAP info. See the DS_ATTRSTORE table. Pull all attributes with a name like "mail"

Opening premier elements for first time. Been "gathering user info" for 15 minutes...what to do? Previously hit "organize", ran for 25 min till hit 100%, then "had to close"?

Unfortunately, there's not enough info listed to give you an effective answer.
Can you give more detailed system spec's. There are a lot of differences in RAM, & Hard Drive Technologies. Is your 2TB a single hard drive, or multiple drives in RAID? While a single 2TB drive is nice for the storage capacity, they also sacrifice some performance to reach that capacity... What speed is the RAM, & I'm assuming it's properly opperating in Dual Channel mode (watch your POST screen to be sure). Which Core i7 CPU are you running, & what Operating System are you running. Finally, bring up your task manager, & see what processes are using CPU cycles. Also, are you starting up PrE8 through the default shortcut which uses the Welcome screen?
A quick guess is that Auto Analyzer & the Welcome screen are behind your troubles, but can't be sure till more info is available.
There is a current thread about Auto Analyzer, & I've posted a way to bypass the Welcome screen in several threads.

GRC 5.3 CUP SP16 - User info not loading from LDAP into CUP

Hello,
We have multiple LDAPS that we needed to connect to our CUP system to authenticate the userids before a request can be created for them. And also to bring in Manager ID and manager email from LDAP as the first level approver for requests.
My client hasn't maintained the actual LDAP userids, Manager and manager email fields correctly, so we utlized three other custom fields in LDAP and then did field mapping in CUP for those fields. But even when the connection to all the LDAPs is successful, there's no user information being pulled in from LDAP into CUP. I noticed that when I use our backend SAP QA system as 'User Data Source' while using multiple LDAPS for 'User Detail Source Data' , it only reads data from SAP QA system SU01 area and even when I'm trying to create requests, no Manager info is being pulled from LDAPS for that user id.
SAP does not allow the use of multiple LDAPS for the configuration-->User Data Source , top option. So, if a client has userids in multiple systems, it can only read from one data source. But even when I temporarily assigned one active directory LDAP to the 'user data source' option, it stated, no records found. So, something is up that no data is being pulled from LDAPs even when the connection to those systems is successful. I just asked our AD guy to temporarily assign domain admin rights to that LDAP connection ID to see if it's access issue, and still I am not getting any LDAP data to read into GRC CUP.
Anyone else has had this issue? Is there especial access that the LDAP connection id needs access in LDAP to be able to retreive data into GRC? Is there any jobs that need to be run to read LDAP data. I thought it should be live as the system is connected to LDAPs. I don't understand if the connection is successful, why the user info is not being pulled from there and even after the LDAP custom field mapping is done, those field values are not showing up on requests.
We need the following to happen:
1). Authenticate the custom userid field in LDAPs to ensure this user exist as an employee b4 request can be created for the user. For this I have configured the multiple LDAPS for the 'Authentication'. But it doesn't seem to confirm that option when creating a request for a user.
2). The user details info source should bring in the custom manager id and manager email into the request to send the first level of approval via workflow to that manager. Since SAP doesn't give the option to define approvers per user group values in CUP, we had to actually map all the User Owner approvers this way since their direct managers are not aware of what to request as the User owner approvers per user group are. So, we added custom fields for Manager id and Manager EMail into LDAP to be ready automatically into the request when reading user id while creating request.
I will greatly appreciate anyone's help on how they got the LDAP field values to be read into GRC CUP for request processing and what type of encripted access can a LDAP connection id have without assigning it complete domain admin rights on an open port 389 for LDAP and GRC CUP connection.
Thanks and Regards,
Alley

Hi Alley,
1). Authenticate the custom userid field in LDAPs to ensure this user exist as an employee b4 request can be created for the user. For this I have configured the multiple LDAPS for the 'Authentication'. But it doesn't seem to confirm that option when creating a request for a user.
This is not possible. You can have only 1 LDAP. Why you want to authenticate the user in different sources?? CUP looks at only one user source, not many. The below wiki explains you the configuration part:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b089fb71-a3b7-2a10-64a2-8c77243b0664
2). The user details info source should bring in the custom manager id and manager email into the request to send the first level of approval via workflow to that manager. Since SAP doesn't give the option to define approvers per user group values in CUP, we had to actually map all the User Owner approvers this way since their direct managers are not aware of what to request as the User owner approvers per user group are. So, we added custom fields for Manager id and Manager EMail into LDAP to be ready automatically into the request when reading user id while creating request.
Based on user group is not possible. However, if you wish to maintain the Manager's Field, ensure that the CUP mapping is done correctly from the Configuration, Field Mapping, LDAP Mapping.
While defining the workflow, take the approver determinator as Manager. This will route the request to the users manager. Also, ensure that LDAP is the source in all the confiuration areas in CUP.
Check note 1228996 for more information.
Hope this helps!!

Hi,
I came across this in a VDI environment whereby after an user loggs off the VDI is deleted and a new one is created.
I created a small script to help me with fill in the blancs (USER Info) again
I log in in the VDI, so my user account is known. I call a command file from HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Run
In this command file I start wscript File.vbs AND %username% as parameter
wscript "C:\Program Files\VDI-Office-USR-Info\OfficeUserInf.vbs" %username% %windir%
The VB script is like this
Dim Arg, var1, var2
Dim objRegistry, strInti, strName, key1, key2
Set objRegistry = CreateObject("Wscript.shell")
Set Arg = WScript.Arguments
'Parameter1, begin with index0
var1 = Arg(0)
'Parameter2
var2 = Arg(1)
'msgbox "First parameter passed was " _
' & var1
'Clear the objects at the end of your script.
Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
var1 = objSysInfo.UserName
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & var1)
'strFullName = objUser.Get("displayName")
'strFirstName = objUser.Get("GivenName")
'strLastName = objUser.Get("sn")
strInti = objUser.Get("mailNickname")
strName = objUser.Get("GivenName") & " " & objUser.Get("sn")
'MsgBox strFullName & " " & strFirstName & " " & strLastName
'MsgBox strName
key1 = objRegistry.RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Common\UserInfo\UserInitials",strInti,"REG_SZ")
key2 = objRegistry.RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Common\UserInfo\UserName",strName,"REG_SZ")
