We are close to successfully getting our CAS authentication integrated with Apex Listener 2.0 and Apex 4.2.1. We are using Weblogic app server for the Listener configurations and have been able to get the remote_user passed to Apex after login to CAS. We just set the header variable in the new 'HTTP Header Variable' authentication scheme. However there is a glitch at the callback from CAS -- we get the error 'wong number of types of arguments in call' and the URL shows: ..... /apex/apex_authentication.callback.
I see the documentation about this CALLBACK procedure, but am not sure how to set it to go back to the application. I know that CAS is working and passing the userid to the application because I can manually type in the app URL .... /apex/f?p=xxx and I immediately get into the application and the correct userid is identified --whereas initially when I hit the same application it sends me to our Central CAS server for login.
where the parameters of this procedure need to be set and how to set them. I assume the procedure needs to be called by Weblogic?for the callback to find the original calling application so it doesn't have to be 'hard-coded'. I see that one of the parameters is 'p_app_id'. I think our Weblogic engineer was assuming the call to that procedure would 'take care' of the return to the original calling application but obviously we have missed some configuration.
We just upgraded from Application Express 4.0.2.00.07 to Application Express 4.2.2.00.11. We are using one common application to authenticate and redirect to other applications.
Task is to create application for almost 10,000 PHD Scholors, i want to know which authtication scheme i used so that each Scholor can access his/her data only after authtication (Login Page).
I do not see an option in web sheets to use HTTP Header values for authentication. Any workaround in order to use OAM for authentication to web sheets?
Am trying to use the same username and password of ebs to my standalone(not integrated with EBS) application. Am using apex 4.2 and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ebs_authenticate ( p_username IN VARCHAR2, p_password IN VARCHAR2 ) RETURN BOOLEAN AS BEGIN RETURN (APPS.FND_WEB_SEC.validate_login (p_username, p_password) = 'Y'); END ebs_authenticate;In Before Header Process
Get Username Cookie :
:P101_USERNAME := apex_authentication.get_login_username_cookie;Set Username Cookie Process :
begin owa_util.mime_header('text/html', FALSE); owa_cookie.send( name=>'LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE', value=>lower(:P101_USERNAME)); [code].........
If i give ebs username and pwd means, it is not logging in as it is showing invalid login credentials.
Our apex currently has LDAP authentication scheme. We have many applications within the workspace. We are looking for a way to have one authentication scheme defined for all the applications so that user doesn't have to enter username/password for each application. How can I share my LDAP authentication scheme for multiple applications.
I have got single sign on working via the built in LDAP Directory authentication in APEX. But at the moment this is letting everyone who is within AD log inHow can I assign role permissions to each logged in user so some users have an admin role and see certain parts of the application / pages / navigation items while editors and readers have different permissions
And also to restrict access to certain pages within the application
I am trying to use embedded weblogic server for creating an LDAP authtication secheme but it is not working
I believe that embedded ldap server works on the same port as the admin server of the domain but configuring it has been a pain. I got the following code from forum to test the ldap connection
I am using SSO login for Authorizations. Would like make use of SSO for creating authentication schema. My main requirement is to assign privilege based on users using SSO loging.
Is it possible to use Database authentication in APEX through database link, and how?Also is it posible to read roles from users through database link?
A trigger is enqueuing to a queue. This works fine, but the callback function is never called. The queue already worked for a while, but since i changed something at the procedure called by the callback it does not work anymore.
I already have tried the following: -Stopping and restarting -Dropping and recreating (with the scheduler having no jobs anymore) -Dropping, restarting the database and recreating
None of these worked. Where do I fail, when considering that the queue with the same scripts worked already? I post the script for creating the queue and adding the subscriber:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE pat_history_queue_payload_type AS OBJECT ( TSTAMP VARCHAR2(22 CHAR), TYP VARCHAR2(10 CHAR), DELTA_MENGE NUMBER,
[code]...
The function CALLBACK which is called by the queue, is never called, I checked that with log messages. Also the package that contains the function is compiled ok.
I would like to run this procedure using a URL ... I have apex installed. What URL would I use. This procedure is compiled in the database. I have been trying to look thru the APEX installation guide for an example but I must be missing it somewhere.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ORASYSAD.HELLOWORLD is htp.print ('<hl>Hello World</hl>'); end;
I have created a procedure within a database package, but when I want to create a form based on procedure but I can't call it. I think that I have to use prefix, I am a beginner in database and I don't know how to do this.
I have created a custom download procedure to download uploaded files from custom table records which are displayed via links and i call my procedure as #OWNER#.my_file?p_file=#ID#. Now the problem this procedure call works in my development system not any other system.
is there any grant i need to provide but i don't want to grant to public also apex 4.1.1 create or replace PROCEDURE
my_file(p_file in number) AS v_mime VARCHAR2(500); v_length NUMBER; v_file_name VARCHAR2(400); Lob_loc BLOB;BEGIN SELECT trim(MIME_TYPE), BLOB_CONTENT, trim(filename),DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(blob_content) INTO v_mime,lob_loc,v_file_name,v_length FROM EMP.FILE_attachments WHERE id = p_file; owa_util.mime_header( nvl(v_mime,'application/octet'), FALSE ); htp.p('Content-length: ' || v_length); htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'||replace(replace(substr(v_file_name,instr(v_file_name,'/')+1),chr(10),null),chr(13),null)|| '"'); owa_util.http_header_close; wpg_docload.download_file( Lob_loc ); ---------------------------------
I am new to APEX (well all of Oracle really so only have limited knowledge of PL/SQL etc too) but have created a couple of simple applications via wizards. One of these has a tabular form which works fine for updating records for the table that the form was built over but I need a way to write a record to a second (audit) table as well.
My form is used for cycle counting of items in a location. It originally shows the quantities of all the items in a location and allows the user to make corrections by updating any incorrect quantities to the correct value (this would then update the quantity column in the main table). It then needs to calculate the difference between the old and new value and write this as a record to an audit file (might be a positive or negative number).
do I call a procedure once (on submitting the page) and get the procedure to loop through the changed records writing to my audit file OR do I call my procedure once per changed record on the tabular form, if so how do I know what parameters to pass to the procedure?
I have tried researching this online but can find no easy to follow examples. All examples of code I have seen for tabular forms refer to fields referenced by apex_application.g_f01 or f02 etc - how do you know what items on the page these relate to?
Apex 3.2. I have a page with a button. Once the user clicks the button a call is made to a procedure in a package.This procedure acesses a couple more procedures and functions, inorder to import data from one table to another. If the procedure takes more than 5 minutes to complete, the user receives an error message.This is actually the error message the user should get if he tries to do an import while another user’s import is running. Is it possible that if the called procedure doesn’t return in under 5 minutes the page is reloaded and the procedure called again resulting in the above error message.
I have problems with calling procedure directly from webbrowser. I have a procedure test in test_pkg package. I granted execute on it to anonymous , added it to wwv_flow_epg_include_mod_local function and still have error 404.searched this forum and found this: Does listener use wwv_flow_epg_include_mod_local
So I granted to apex_public_user and created synonym for him to my package. And it starts working. But then I wanted to add next proceudre to my package the same way, and change my test procedure and it stop working again. Now I have 404 error again.
I just started to play with this system and don't understand how to execute the the stored procedure (that creates report) from the APEX page. I know that they have sample documentation and java script call (show below):
<script language=”JavaScript” type=”text/javascript”> function callMyRep() { var formVal1 = document.getElementById(’P_PAR1′).value; var url; url = ‘rep1?p_session_id=&SESSION.’+'&p_par1=’+ formVal1; window.location.href=”f?p=&APP_ID.:12:&SESSION.”; w = open(url,”winRep”,”Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=800,height=600″); Close here. X [code]....
In this example rep1 is the stored procedure that creates report.How can I execute it using url?
I'd like to call an existing function/procedure from a resource template. For example, I have a procedure called 'rest' with an out parameter of 'p_out' - how do I use this within a resource template?
At the moment I have defined the template as type 'PL/SQL Block' and with the 'GET' defined as:
begin myschema.rest(:p_out); end;
APEX_PUBLIC_USER has been granted 'all' on the procedure. The p_out is populated with a piece of text.
When I call this resource, I get a '500 Internal Error' returned. I've tried adding p_out as an X-APEX-FORWARD parameter, but nothing seems to work.
We have integrated Oracle Access Manager 11gR1 with Oracle Apex 4.1. The OAM-Apex integration is working fine. Now we want an additional header variable to be passed from OAM to the Apex application. This new header variable will be user's sAMAccountName in Active Directory. OAM is integrated with AD and the AD users are successfully able to access the Apex applications.
The three header variables which are configure in OAM right now are: Header variable name Value 1. OAM_REMOTE_USER $user.userid 2. OAM_REMOTE_USER_EMAIL $user.attr.mail 3. OAM_REMOTE_USER_GROUPS $user.groups
We need an additional header variable as mentioned below: Header variable name: OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME Value: $user.attr.samaccountname
The new header variable was added in the OHS server's dads.conf file like shown below: =========== dads.conf ============= ... PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER_GROUPS PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER_EMAIL PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME
But we are not able to read the value of this attribute in the Apex application.On the Apex application, we have a text box which shows the value of this header variable. This textbox is attached with the following stored procedure call to fetch the header variable: =================== begin :P1_HEADER_VALUE := owa_util.get_cgi_env( 'HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME' ); end;
The textbox shows the correct value if HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER is passed to the get_cgi_env method but does not shows anything when HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME is passed to the same method. if I am missing some configuration to pass the HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME haeder variable from OAM to Apex.
I have multiple application set-up using session sharing within the workspace.Technically all works fine, however it does not play nice with user behaviour.
Example: Users logs into APP_ID:100. Since he isn't authenticated yet, he provides user/pass and the APP_SESSION is authenticated. Now if the user switches using to another application (using a link provided in application 100) he gets redirect to APP_ID:101:APP_SESSION all is fine.
The session is already authenticated, the application shares the session and the user gains access to app 101 without having to authenticate again. All's fine!
However users don't behave they way. Instead of using an easy link in the application. They will use their own bookmark or type in the url for app 101 manually. That way the next application is either called with f?p=101:1:[SOME OLD SESSIONID FROM BOOMARK] or f?p=101 (with no further page or session info) In both cases instead of using the already authenticated session apex spawns a new session, which of course isn't authenticated yet thus forcing the user to authenticate and come complaining they have to login again.
Similar behaviour problems exists when the user opens a browser and tries to open both applications in each in a tab next to each other.Both tabs fetch there own initial session id and start writing it to the same cookie each in turn invalidating the other tab's session.These can lead to some fanatic ping pong actions. Thus it's impossible to open 2 applications sharing session in the same browser.
Is there any remedy for these situations?Can apex be as smart as for instance first trying to resume the session stored in the cookie and only if that session is invalid, start a new session?
how to use checkbox item, and trying to get checked options values via application global arrays. So, this may be quite simple question, but I'm completely stuck here...
When I was looking through various threads and guides, I've encountered checkbox corresponding array names like "g_f01" - "g_f50". And so far i saw that these names are derived from item name in generated HTML code, for example:
<input type="checkbox" name="*f10*" value="3" />
And this one stands for array name "g_*f10*".However, when I tried to do the same thing - i receive item name which looks like "*p_v04*", and therefore, I can't figure out, which array name should I choose to adress it properly.
APEX 4.0 Sometimes, I am getting the below error when I tried to logging into APEX workspace (after giving workspace name, User name and password), Expecting p_company or wwv_flow_company cookie to contain security group id of application owner.
ErrorERR-7621 Could not determine workspace for application (:) on application accept. I found some threads related to this but in different way not exactly when I am getting this error.
After 2 or 3 times, this error will not come and I can able to logging into workspace What is the cause for this issue??
Each time when I import an application into my workspace in local 10g XE using the APEX 4.2 Application Builder, I get the "ORA-02291, constraint wwv_flows_fk violated..". The application I whant to import was originally exported from [URL]. I found out, that it has to to with wwv_flow_application_install.get_workspace_id in the installation script, which obviously returns NULL and not my current workspace id as I suppose it should. I replaced wwv_flow_application_install.get_workspace_id by '<my worskspace id>' and then the import does work.
I have an application that I'd like to prevent activity in after a certain time of day, say 3pm. Is there any way I can force logout of all current users and then prevent re-login until 9am the next day (short of deleting all of their login credentials and then recreating them the next morning)?
We have developed an application for our clients,planning to deploy it in client server soon. we have plans to support the application in future,so we want to restrict the clients from any modifications. By Doubt is, 'build_status=Run only' alone,cannot protect our application from client developers to edit our application,
Because though we install our application as 'Run Only' at the time of installation in client instance,we can still import the original application and change the type to 'Build and Run Application',and run the new application as 'Build and Run'.(which is not supposed to) we want to make sure,if there is any way we can protect our application from modifications after client side installation.
