Web services and multiple certificates
I originally posted this question in the SOA forum, but someone suggested this forum as well. So, here we go...
Hi, I am trying to consume a secure web service on ECC 6.0 - so far without much luck.
When I try to connect to the ws server, it seems there are three certificates in action: a CICS certificate for establishing the SSL connection, a 'root' certificate from the PKI certificate issuer, and a private certificate issued by the above issuer (please forgive me if a have the syntax wrong - certificates are not my primary line of work). So, using Trust Manager (STRUST), I have created a PSE named 'OES' and imported all three certificates into it.
In SOAMANAGER I have set up the end-point using the WSDL-file and set the following parameters:
- Authentication Method = X.509 Client Certificate
- Trustworthiness Method = Holder of Key
- Issuer = <issuer from the root certificate>
- Name of Attester = <blank>
- Validity of SAML Assertion = 180
- Caching of SAML Assertions = False
- Attester System Destination = <blank>
- Name of Attester = <blank>
- User = SRxxxWS
- Password = <blank>
- Client PSE = OES
When I try to consume the web service, I can see in the log files that the CICS certificat is used for establishing the SSL connection but all I receive back is an HTTP 403 "Client Authentication Error". If I remove the CICS certificate from the PSE, the connection is not made.
How do I make the client certificate available for the connection? Have I approached the problem from the wrong side? Has anybody experienced something similar? Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bo
Thanks for the reply! I'm no expert either, that's why I'm
here!
Yes, the certificate for the server is loaded. I'm doing this
all on one machine, so I just loaded it's own server certificate
into the trust store. The problem is the server is protected by
client authentication via certificates. I guess I'm relating this
to a regular request, where if you have a server that requires
certificates, you can pass along the cert in an CFHTTP call with
clientCert parameter. Here we are calling a page that invokes the
web service which is really another request. This is where the
issue is, since I don't see how to send along the certificate
information in the invoke call.
Thanks for the help!

Web services and client certificates
Hello,
Is there a way to invoke a web service that sits on a web
server that requires client certificate authentication. Like in
Coldfusion 8 you can pass the client cert along with the cfhttp
call. We're running into the problem of calling the page that
invokes the web service, then the invoke fails because that's a
call to a URL that is protected. Anyone know how to do this, or a
good work around?
Any help is appreciated.Thanks for the reply! I'm no expert either, that's why I'm

Web services with multiple elements in the results
We are using ASP.Net and LiveCycle Forms with LiveCycle Designer 7.0. LiveCycle forms is running on JBOSS (turnkey installation). Our problem is that if the web service returns multiple results e.g.
£12.99
Widget
£0.99
Grommett
The form does not grow to accommodate the extra results. Has anyone had any experience of this issue. Adobe say it can be done but so far we have had no luck.<[email protected]> ha scritto nel messaggio <br />news:[email protected]..<br />> We are using ASP.Net and LiveCycle Forms with LiveCycle Designer 7.0. <br />> LiveCycle forms is running on JBOSS (turnkey installation).

Difference between a WEB service and a Enterprise Service?
Can Anybody explain me the difference between a WEB service and a Enterprise Service?
Hi Anilkumar K Naidu ,
Web service
A Web service is a self-contained, modularized functionality, which can be published, discovered, and accessed across a network using open standards and which is supported by SAP NetWeaver. Web services cover services provision for integration within an enterprise as well as cross enterprises on top of any communication technology stack, whether asynchronous or synchronous, in any format.
Web Services in the NetWeaver framework play an important role in facilitating the integration of disparate applications from various departments or trading partners and thus increasing business productivity. This benefit allows small and medium businesses also to integrate their business applications with larger trading partners. The benefit derived from this seamless integration introduces security concerns when all the business logic is now being exposed through a standard interface that is a catalyst for security vulnerabilities. SAP Security Managers must use automated diagnostics tools to ensure that the security vulnerabilities are caught in pre-production and in post-production phase.

Enterprise Service
Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture (Enterprise SOA)
Enterprise SOA is a blueprint for an adaptable, flexible, and open IT architecture for developing services-based, enterprise-scale business solutions. With SAP NetWeaver as a technical foundation, enterprise SOA moves IT architectures to higher levels of adaptability and moves companies closer to the vision of real-time enterprises by elevating Web services to an enterprise level.
An enterprise service is typically a series of Web services combined with business logic that can be accessed and used repeatedly to support a particular business process. Aggregating Web services into business-level enterprise services provides a more meaningful foundation for the task of automating enterprise-scale business scenarios.

Has anyone ever consumed an external web service with SSL certificate security? How do you import this in your Web Dynpro project?
Cheers!Hi Alain,
I just checked on a newer NW environment (NW 7.2) and was presented an empty list as well... It seems the mapping procedure I described is deprecated since NW 7.11, and the modeled CAF application service is already exposed as a web service.

Secured Sybase Web Service with outside certificate authority
Hello,
I would like to use Secured Sybase Web Service with outside certificate authority, like Symantec. Could you let me know how I can create CSR for sending to Symantec? What other steps do I need to do?
Thanks,
Sudarat.Hello Jason,
Thanks for your reply. The certificate authority require the CSR file before issue a signed certificate. If this is a signed certificate for IIS web server, I can create CSR from IIS. But I cannot use a signed certificate created from CSR of IIS with Sybase Web Service. The below steps are what I have tried.
1. I use CreateCert.exe with /r parameter to create CSR and private key.
2. I sent CSR to a certificate authority and they send back a signed certificate.
3. I have to combine a signed certificate from #2 with private key created from #1. Then use that file to specify with -xs{https …when starting the service.
Are the above steps what I have to do? If so, do I need to redistribute createcert.exe to my customers who want to use my application and how? Why I cannot use the signed certificate created from CSR of IIS?
Thanks,
Sudarat. -
Java app with web service and servlets
Hi. I intend to make a java application which exposes some methods as a web service and as jsp/servlets. It's core functionality is not really web centric, but its more a java app with a web tier. I am not sure about how the architecture of such a system would look like using the java platform. I currently see three options:
1. Run everything in a servlet container like tomcat. I hesitate to do this because i would be putting a lot of functionality which isn't about the web into a servlet container. Also, I have a lot of application scope data that is maintained and shared by all servlets/web services. However, it would be really easy just to put everything into tomcat and use ServletContext to maintain some global objects.
2. Use a Java EE to seperate application/business logic and data access into session beans and entity beans. I hesitate to this because it seem a bit overkill because the system isn't very big or complex right now. It also means that I would have to learn to use EJB's instead of just using some POJOs.
3. Run the web tier in a servlet container and the main app in a separate JVM, and then connect the tier by sending serialized objects over TCP sockets. I don't like writing network code but at least there is some separation of the tiers.
What would you do? Maybe I have overlooked a much better solution to the problem?
Let me just say that the system is the product of a student project spanning one semester, so it's important to choose the RIGHT solution (architectural-wise) instead of the something quick and dirty that is hard to defend.jschell wrote:

Let me just say that the system is the product of a student project spanning one semester, so it's important to choose the RIGHT solution (architectural-wise) That pretty much makes it impossible then.
1. A "Right" solution is generally only proven by time.
2. It requires a great deal of knowledge about the business domain.Yeah, you are right. Let be try to rephrase it. What solution (pattern) would be considered the most common or appropriate when you have a Java App and want to expose a few methods as a website and web service?
I hesitate to do this because i would be putting a lot of functionality which isn't about the web into a servlet container. Also, I have a lot of application scope data that is maintained and shared by all servlets/web servicesHuh? Do you already have an exposed web service? If you already have a server which other clients communicate then where does this functionality that you don't want to be tomcat running now? Or where do you think that you want to run it? And if you are or do run it somewhere else then tomcat could access it the same way any other client accesses that server.Sorry, that sentence was written badly. I don't have anything right now. What I meant to write was that I will have a lot of application scope data, objects that are kept in memory as long as the server is running, shared by multiple servlet instances. -
Web service sends multiple requests after flash upgrade
I have a Xcelsius engage 2008 SP3 FP2 and i just found out that my dashboard send multiple reqests to web service and this will render my dashboard useless. This is a major bug, is there any solution? Service methods will get around 2-20 request and the dashboard will not be usable any more. Triggers are correct and will not trigger web service unless button is clicked.
Dear Expert,
Tcode RZ10
set the parameter rdisp/gui_auto_logout = 30M in all Instance profiles / orwhat ever time limit u want to specify.
See that this parameter is set on each server.
And you can make it a default.

PLSQL web service returning multiple records
Hello,
I am trying to create a web service using oracle 11g which should be able to return multiple records.
Based on hints and code samples found on the internet here is my code :
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE test_rec is OBJECT (
s_nume_adre NUMBER ,
c_eta_civi VARCHAR2(4 BYTE),
l_nom1_comp VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
l_nom2_comp VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
l_nom3_comp VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
l_pren_comp VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
d_date_nais DATE);
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE test_array AS TABLE OF test_rec;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE test_pkg AS
function get_rows(snume_adre in number) return test_array;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY test_pkg AS
function get_rows(snume_adre in number) return test_array is
v_rtn test_array := test_array(null);
v_first boolean := true;
cursor c_get_rows(snume_adre in number) is
SELECT a.s_nume_adre,
nvl(a.c_eta_civi, '') c_eta_civi,
nvl(a.l_nom1_comp, '') l_nom1_comp,
nvl(a.l_nom2_comp, '') l_nom2_comp,
nvl(a.l_nom3_comp, '') l_nom3_comp,
nvl(a.l_pren_comp, '') l_pren_comp,
nvl(a.d_date_nais, to_date('01.01.1900', 'dd.mm.yyyy')) d_date_nais
FROM bro.z45 a
where a.s_nume_adre = snume_adre or snume_adre is null;
begin
for rec in c_get_rows(snume_adre) loop
if v_first then
v_first := false;
else
v_rtn.extend;
end if;
v_rtn(v_rtn.last) := test_rec(rec.s_nume_adre, rec.c_eta_civi, rec.l_nom1_comp, rec.l_nom2_comp,
rec.l_nom3_comp, rec.l_pren_comp, rec.d_date_nais);
end loop;
return v_rtn;
end;
END;
--select * from table (test_pkg.get_rows(null));
I am able to retrieve the data using the select.
However when I try to access its wsdl I get an error :

Any hint as how to create and access pl sql web service returning multiple rows?
I don't use java and don't have access to tools like JDeveloper.
Thanks!The actual issue is that collection types are not supported for return parameters.
The solution is to wrap the collection into another object.
Here's a working example based on your settings :
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE test_rec is OBJECT (
empno number(4)
, ename varchar2(10)
, hiredate date
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE test_array AS TABLE OF test_rec;
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE test_array_wrapper is OBJECT ( arr test_array );
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE test_pkg AS
function get_rows(p_deptno in number) return test_array_wrapper;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY test_pkg AS
function get_rows(p_deptno in number) return test_array_wrapper is
results test_array;
begin
select test_rec(empno, ename, hiredate)
bulk collect into results
from scott.emp
where deptno = p_deptno;
return test_array_wrapper(results);
end;
END;
The wsdl is then generated correctly :
SQL> select httpuritype('http://DEV:dev@localhost:8080/orawsv/DEV/TEST_PKG/GET_ROWS?wsdl').getxml() from dual;

Web services and servlets in same context
I would like to provide web services and servlets under the same context, where the servlets are handled by a controller mapped to multiple urls.
If I map the servlet controller with
<url-pattern>/servlet</url-pattern>
then /prjServ/servlet works in a browser but of course any other urls (eg /prjServ/servlet/fred) do not.
If I change the web.xml to be
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
all attempts to access the servlet get requested resource not available.
The web service continues to work fine whichever mapping I use for the servlet (the web service is /prjServ/mlm).
Does the web service handling affect the way I can map the servlets?No, it should not. For the JAXRPC SI, the web services are implemented
via one common servler. -
Query as a Web Service and In List
Hi,
Here is my scenario (Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise SP2):
- List builder object which returns multiple values
I want to use those values to filter a Query as a Web Service data connection (to BW based universe). How is that possible?
My web service contains a Filter defined as <Dimension> In List <Prompt>
I have tried the following:
1) Selected multiple rows in the Input Values/Read From section of the connection
2) Tried to concatenate the individual values using ; and , and then passing the concatenated values to the Read From section of the connection (as one cell)
1) works fine as long as I just select one value, but when I select multiple values, only the first one is used to filter the QaaWS
2) Does not work
Any ideas/suggestion on how to solve this?
Thanks in advance,
JacobHello David,
I tried this feature of BI Services through WebI Rich Client. But I am having problem with sending values for Prompts using Xceslius. Below is the procedure I followed in developing a report and using BI web service to connect to Xcelsius.
1) Build a report in Web Intelligence rich client along with Query filters (Inlist, Optional Prompts).
2) Activate BI Service and publish the block after exporting the file.
3) Use the WSDL URL to connect to Xcelsius from Data Connection (Add as Query As Web Service and Import it).
4) Method: Get_ReportBlock_<Block name>,
set input values <Enter_value_s_for_prompt>
i) Valueofprompt (bind to single values, hard coded)
ii) Index (leave blank, not binded)
5) set <refresh> as 1 (or true) and <getfromlatestdocumentinstance> as 0 (false)
6) Bind the output values to excel and pull a scorecard component to view the data.
7) Preview the dashboard and now I get this error
Cannot Access external Data: String index out of range: -1
When I remove both the values inserted in step 5, I get complete data (prompt is not applied). I also have a doubt whether I can pass multiple values for the prompt without using + sign to duplicate the Prompt.
From some of the previous posts I came to know about Value formatting compatibility issue between BI Services and Xcelsius. Which is addressed with two fix packs
1) XI 3.1 SP2.5 (available since last March) for WebIntelligence Rich Client & BI Services, and
2) Xcelsius 2008 SP3.1 (available since last April).
Are these the up to date Fix packs available and will they solve my problem?
Where can I download them from (SAP Market place)? or from our SAP service consultant? -
Diff b/w Web service and window service
What is the difference between web service and window service, whether the both are same or not, Give some explain about that each one and give some examples also.
An XML Web service is a component that implements program
logic and provides functionality for diseparate
applications. These applications use standard protocols,
such as HTTP, XML, and SOAP, to access the functionality.
XML Web services use XML-based messaging to send and
receive data, which enables heterogeneous applications to
interoperate with each other. You can use XML Web services
to integrate applications that are written in different
programming languages and deployed on different platforms.
In addition, you can deploy XML Web services within an
intranet as well as on the Internet. While the Internet
brings users closer to organizations, XML Web services
allow organizations to integrate their applications.
A Windows service starts much before any user logs in to
the system (if it has been setup to start at boot up
process). A Windows service can also be setup in such a way
that it requires a user to start it manually ? the ultimate
customization!
Windows services run as background processes. These
applications do not have a user interface, which makes them
ideal for tasks that do not require any user interaction.
You can install a Windows service on any server or computer
that is running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows NT.
You can also specify a Windows service to run in the
security context of a specific user account that is
different from the logged on user account or the default
computer account. For example, you can create a Windows
service to monitor performance counter data and react to
threshold values in a database. -
Pl/Sql web service and collections not working
Hello
I'm trying to create a web service from a function in a package which returns a collection. The creation of the web service and its deployment seem to work correctly. I do get the following warning :
WARNING: OWS-00077 The Value Type class: pxWsLang.PamLanguagerecordBase does not have a valid JAVA Bean pattern
but I don't think this is the source of the problem.
When I try to test the web service using the endpoint in the wsdl I get the following answer in the browser:
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><env:Header/><env:Body><env:Fault xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><faultcode>env:Server</faultcode><faultstring>Error creating target: pxWsLang.WsLangUser</faultstring><faultactor></faultactor></env:Fault></env:Body></env:Envelope>
In the DOS window for the OC4J I get the following error :
2006-11-15 09:21:25.852 ERROR OWS-04005 An error occurred for port: {http://pxWs
Lang/WsLang.wsdl}wsLangSoapHttpPort: javax.xml.rpc.JAXRPCException: Error creati
ng target: pxWsLang.WsLangUser.
The PL/SQL code is as follows :
Object:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE PAM_LanguageRecord as OBJECT
NR NUMBER(3),
SYMBOL VARCHAR2(2)
Collection:
CREATE OR REPLACE Type PAM_LanguageTable as Table of PAM_LanguageRecord;
Package body :
create or replace package body PAM_TEST is
function CursorTest return Pam_LanguageTable is
Res_LangTable PAM_LanguageTable;
cursor cur is select * from stc_languages;
begin
Res_LangTable := new PAM_LanguageTable();
for Rec in cur loop
Res_LangTable.Extend(1);
Res_LangTable(cur%ROWCOUNT) := new PAM_LanguageRecord
(Rec.NR,
Rec.SYMBOL
end loop;
Return Res_LangTable;
end;
end;
I'm using JDeveloper version 10.1.3.1.0.3984
How can I get this to work ? (without using Apache Axis or other tools :-)
Is it supposed to work ?
Many Thanks
PaulHi,
for the "error creating target" problem I found the solution here:
[WS from a PL/SQL package]: Error creating target
Hope this helps.

Web service and servlets in the same project...web.xml?
Hello, I have a problem with my web service.
I have a server, which displays a web service. I programmed this service with JAXRPC.
I have a client, in another directory. I succeded in compiling, deploying and running the web service.
The problem is that after I tried to integrate this service in an existing project. This project contains servlets. In these servlets, I'm using sessions.
These servlets are on the same side as the server of the web service. Because of the implementation of my code, I'd like to use in the class that represents the server of the service, the same session as the one I'm using in the servlets.
But of course, it's not working by itself. I know there's something to do with the web.xml files.
The thing is that I created a web.xml file for the service, and another for the servlets.
I was thinking of joining both of them in one xml file, but everything crashes then...
Could someone tell me how to create a project with a web service and servlets, and mostly how to configure the xml file??
Thanks for any help

Quick questions on the topic of Web Services and EJB POJOs
I have been reading about Web Services and the data types that are aloud as operation parameters and return types. I was wondering what the standard practice for return types; is it to use the Entity classes straight and customize the WSDL instead of letting the EE container do it (avoid cyclic problems in the schema that can occur when using entity 1-to-many and many-to-1 mappings) or; is it to off load the data into a DTO/VO/Bean and let the EE container take care of all the schema mapping for the WSDL? I look at the EE tutorial and bought a EE book both use very basic examples that do not include connecting to a database or using EJB3 for the data store.
Thanks for any informationbump
