Using blobsin database and ole in forms ,reports

Dear forum ,
I have one thread to you, its stopping me from moving forward.
I am using forms 6i ,reports 6i ,db above 9i.
I had created database table haveing one blob column ,used the column in form as ole object and inserted a record contains (opened ms office excel sheet ,i need some part of rows columns matrix copied -it contains data taken) copied in forms runtime and saved.
And the same table used in oracle reports the column as ole column, generated the output to pdf ,or word .
the inserted records -bolob images are not retriveing or not shown in generated file can be pdf or word or html ?
what is the reason.
can you help me the proceeding.
Thanks & Regards ,
Deviprasad.m

I don't think its possible to include a word-doc or a pdf stored in a blob in a report. A blob in reports can be used to show an image, like a jpg or gif.

Is there anybody out there who is still using Appleworks Database and is there a good alternative?

Is there anybody else out there who is still using Appleworks Database and is there a good alternative?

There is no replacement program that will directly read Appleworks database files.
You have two options:
1. Continue to use Appleworks 6.2.9, which requires Rosetta installed in Snow Leopard, or the access to Rosetta by installing Snow Leopard Server in virtualization for use in Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks:

2. Export your database information into a common export function (such as delimited ASCII text file) and build a new database file in an alternate database program (such as Filemaker Pro) and import your information into it. More information here:

Form-based authentication in JBoss using a database and JAAS

I am trying to set up simple authentication using a database. I am initially trying to secure all web resources, since my application accesses the EJBs via servlets (and is working fine without security). Later I will tighten things down so that the EJB's business methods will also have security in place.
It seems that everything is in place but I am unable to authenticate a user when I use a valid login/password combination (I am being redirected to the login error page). No exceptions appear in the JBoss console, and the database tables are populated with proper values. I'm clueless as to why this isn't working -- hopefully someone reading this can give me a clue as to what is going wrong.
Here is what I have done so far:
1) I have two tables in my database, one for the username and password, and another for roles. The database tables look like this:
table name: principals
column: principal_id VARCHAR(64) primary key
column: password VARCHAR(64)
table name: roles
column: principal_id VARCHAR(64)
column: user_role VARCHAR(64)
column: role_group VARCHAR(64)
2) I have added an entry in $JBOSS/server/default/conf/login-config.xml to declare an application policy which uses a DatabaseServerLoginModule. In this entry I have specified the SQl to be used by the module for selecting the password and role, following the example in the JBoss Getting Started Guide (p. 57):
    
    <application-policy name="HIM-client-login">
        <authentication>
            <login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule"
                          flag="required">
                <module-option name="dsJndiName">java:/OracleDS</module-option>
                <module-option name="principalsQuery">select password from principals where principal_id=?</module-option>
                <module-option name="principalsQuery">select user_role, role_group from roles where principal_id=?</module-option>
            </login-module>
        </authentication>
    </application-policy>
     ...3) I have added a security domain entry in the jboss-web.xml file:
    
    <security-domain>java:/jaas/HIM-client-login</security-domain>
    ... 4) I have declared a security constraint in the web.xml file:
    
    <security-constraint>
        <display-name>Server Configuration Security Constraint</display-name>
        
        <web-resource-collection>
            <web-resource-name>Secure Resources</web-resource-name>
            <description>Security constraint for all resources</description>
            
            <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
            
            <http-method>POST</http-method>
            <http-method>GET</http-method>
        </web-resource-collection>
        
        <auth-constraint>
            <description>Only allow those users that are in the following role</description>
            <role-name>user</role-name>
        </auth-constraint>
        
        <user-data-constraint>
            <transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
        </user-data-constraint>
    </security-constraint>
    ... 5) I have a simple login form (LoginForm.jsp) which encodes j_security_check:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
    <head>
        <title>HIM Client Login</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <form method="POST"
              action='<%= response.encodeURL( "j_security_check" ) %>'>
            Username: <input type="text"
                             name="j_username"><br/>
            Password: <input type="password"
                             name="j_password"><br/>
            <br/>
            <input type="submit"
                   value="Login">
            <input type="reset"
                   value="Reset">
        </form>
    </body>
</html>
    Can anyone see from the above that I have missed something, or that I have done something wrong ?
Is there a way to get more information ? All I see in the access log file are logs of the requests for the servlet, j_security_check, and the login and error pages, and it might be helpful to have a little more information as to what is going on.
Thanks in advance for any insight.

Hi,
I have exactly followed your configurations. However, I dont have the same database tables in my database. I used the following:
<module-option name="principalsQuery">select password from s_users where username=?</module-option>
<module-option name="rolesQuery">select role from s_users where username=?</module-option>However, when I try to logon I get the following error message from jboss:
"ERROR [org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule] Failed to load users/passwords/role files
java.io.IOException: No properties file: users.properties or defaults: defaultUsers.properties found" although I do not want to use property files as I want to use the oracle database.
Any help appreciated!

How to retrieve data using logical database and custom select options

Hi all,
I have a selection screen which is displayed by logical database PSJ and I have two select options of my own. I need to retrieve data based on both selection screen of logical database and my own select options. How can I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hai Gupta
Check the following Document & Links
1. A logical database is in fact
a program only.
2. This LDB provides two main things :
a) a pre-defined selection screen
which handles all user inputs and validations
b) pre defined set of data
based upon the user selection.
3. So we dont have to worry about from
which tables to fetch data.
4. Moreover, this LDB Program,
handles all user-authorisations
and is efficient in all respects.
5. tcode is SLDB
good info about Logical Database. you can check the link.

Re: How to Create and Use ldb in reports?
Re: Logical databases
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/9f/db9bed35c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Functions for displaying and changing logical databases:
Call Transaction SE36 or
Choose ABAP Workbench -> Development -> Programming environ. -> Logical databases
Interaction between database program and report:
During program processing, subroutines are performed in the database program and events are executed in the report.
To read data from a database tables we use logical database.
A logical database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program.
advantages:-
The programmer need not worry about the primary key for each table.Because Logical database knows how the different tables relate to each other,and can issue the SELECT command with proper where clause to retrieve the data.
i)An easy-to-use standard user interface.
ii)check functions which check that user input is complete,correct,and plausible.
iii)meaningful data selection.
iv)central authorization checks for database accesses.
v)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view determined by the application logic.
disadvantages:-
i)If you donot specify a logical database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur.
ii)There is no ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next event
statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
1. transaction code SLDB.
2.enter name z<ldb-name>
3.create
4.short text
5.create
6. name of root node (here Ekko)
7. enter short text (f6)
8.node type -> data base table.
9.create
10 change logical DB
riht click on ekko and insert node
here node name ekpo
11.create
12. click on selections
13. press no Should the changed structure of Z<ldb name> be saved first.
14.select tables which you want to join.
15.transfer
16 now you have to o to coding part.
17. save
activate.
19.click to src code
double click on first include and activate

Use original database logon information from the report

When publishing reports to crystal reports server, the data source password is missing and reports as set to 'prompt the user for database logon'
Here is a description of our report creation process and how we currently set the db password.
Reports are created using Crystal Reports Designer XI Professional.
The data source is set up through the report wizard or manually to a sql db
using either a sql login or integrated authentication
the reports are then publish through the designer by going to File Save As - Choose Enterprise - then give
report server info.
From the CMC (crystal report server XI r2)
we go to the folder location,
select the report then go to the process tab
click on database sub tab.
we then set the database password and change the "When viewing reprot" setting to "Use same database logon as when report is run"
reports are run both ondemand through links to infoview and through a variaty of schedules.
How can we publish the reports to the Report Server without having to go to the CMC and set the database password, it doesnt' matter if we use sql login or integrated authentication, the result is the same.

Hi Mario,
some things you may want to consider.
1) Setting up SSO to the DB. If your install is on windows and DB is SQL or Oracle, you can integrate your logon with windows and pass that all the way down to the DB when viewing the report. This is fairly complex to set up initially but simple to use from then on.
2) DBuser and DBpass. You can populate user/pw fields associated with user account and then pass this value down to the DB. This can work with any DB instead of just SQL and Oracle. This doesn't appear to be documented yet. You may need to open a message with support if you need more details.
3) Create reports based of a universe. This will use the universe connection (set per universe) to access the DB. For more on this post a question in the crystal reports forums.
The kerberos SSO to the DB is documented in the [XI 3.0 admin guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir3/en/xi3_bip_admin_en.pdf]

Tim

Using Logical Databases and the Tables or Nodes Statement

I want to start using Logical Databases whenever possible, but it seems that I need to use the Tables or Nodes statement for the Get statement to work. Is there anyway to avoid Tables/Nodes statement since they are obsolete (and still use LDBs)?
Message was edited by: Jason DeLuca

Hi Jason,
1) table statement is obligatory:
-> look at abap-docu to GET:
node is a node in the logical database that is assigned to the report (type 1 program) in the program attributes. <b>You must declare the node in the report using the NODES statement (or the TABLES statement, if the node is of the type "table").</b>
2) some ldb-selections from the selection screen
depends on the table-statement too, i remember...
regards Andreas

Security pane in preferences is missing cookies, databases and non-secure forms options? Also Privacy Pane is totally blank?

I wanted to delete some cookies. But when I went to the Security Pane in Safari Preferences, it does not show any of the following categories/settings option: nothing for cookes (nothing for accept or show or anything else about cookies), nothing for databases, and nothing for non-secure forms. No controls for these are showing in the Security pane. Also, the Privacy Pane in Safari preferenes is totally blank--I can't set anything on that. Where are these controls/settings options, why can't I see them? I am using OSX 10.6.8 and Safari Version 5.1.9, I have a Mac Book Pro 3.06 Intel. Thanks.

Uninstall SIMBL as follows. Back up all data before making any changes.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open. From that folder, delete the items listed below (some may be absent.) You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Application Support/SIMBL
InputManagers/SIMBL.bundle
LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in.
Make sure you never reinstall SIMBL. It’s likely to come bundled with another third-party system modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.

How to generate PDF using FDF file and the PDF form template (PHP)

Hi Folks,
I'm really sorry that I couldn't follow all the valuable discussions going on here, regularly. I need some immediate help.
I NEED A PHP SOLUTION. I'm able to generate FDF files using the PDF Form Template in PHP. So, I have a collection of FDF files, which seeks the PDF template, while opened and populates the template with FDF data. Now if I need to save this PDF file, I have to do it manually clicking SAVE option. But, I need to convert FDF to PDF in bulk. So, I need some PHP based solution. The PHP script takes the PDF template and the FDF file and merges them to generate a complete populated PDF file. I know it's possible, but don't know how. I've seen Adobe FDF Toolkit. But by default it doesn't show any guideline for PHP. Please help me to write this code. I'm a professional coder. I can understand your hints and tutorials. PLEASE HELP GOOD PEOPLE.

The only reason I am responding to this post is because the poster sent me a request through the forum message system asking for my help.
Although I did populate PDFs with FDF data generated by web forms a year or so ago, I have since abandoned that kind of solution. It was a big headache. I found it far more stable and flexible to use html, php and css to populate forms that are almost as nice looking as PDFs.
So my advice is, if you can possibly avoid going the FDF/PDF route, you will be better off.

Using Excel Xp and DTS to Produce reports

We are using DTS to automate report production using Excel XP and the spreadsheet tool-kit. The DTS package runs fine manually, but it hangs up when we try to schedule the package. Has anyone tried this or run into something similar?Thanks.

<p>I have run into this issue before. Bear in mind that when thescheduler actually runs the job the process owner is the same asthat for the SQL Agent service. When you run the job manually youare the process owner so there may be a permissions issue. Be suresure to configure the job log as well as the package log. If thepackage is not being found, delete the job and and reschedule byright-clicking the package and select Schedule Package.</p>

How to use a Geotrust certificate with standalone forms/reports services

Hi!
I have successfully installed the standalone version of Oracle Forms and Reports Services (10.2.0.2). I'm trying to configure things so I can use SSL. I used Wallet Manager to create a CSR and then obtained a certificate from Geotrust. When I try to import it, I get the following message:
User certificate import has failed because the CA certificate does not exist"
I don't think I've got a CA certificate. Am I doing this process correctly for the standalone version of Forms and Reports?

Hi,
You have to import the CA root certificate into your wallet first. Check with your certificate provider.
HTH,

Using member sorting and grouping with two reports sharing rows

Hi!
I have a problem with one report and I need some help or advise here.
I have two dimensions with dynamic expansion in rows (PRODUCT, MATERIAL), and I use the option Member Sorting and Grouping at Member selector to obtain the total amount of PRODUCT group by PARENTH1:
PRODUCT               MATERIAL          AMOUNT
TOTAL PROD_A-X                                   100
PROD_A_A             MAT1                          22
PROD_A_B             MAT1                          50
PROD_A_A             MAT2                          28
TOTAL PROD_B-X                                   120
PROD_B_A             MAT1                          30
PROD_B_A             MAT2                          50
PROD_B_B             MAT2                          40
This works fine if I only have one report, but I need to create another one sharing the row and page axis with the Default Report, when I do that the option Member Sorting and Grouping doesn't work. I really need to have two reports with shared rows and also the summation by PARENTH1, how can I do that?
Thank you very much
