Application Express :: Creating Functionality For Changing Users Password
Mar 12, 2013
I'm trying to create a functionality on my application that lets the user change their password whenever they want or when the password gets expired.
But to do that, first I need a Branch to the page "Password Change" whenever the login procedure returns "Password Expire", but when the user has an expired password he can't access none of the pages of the application.
My other problem is:
Even if I can get the user to be redirect to the "Password Change" page, I would need a function that validate his current expired password, because in order to alter his own, he would need to inform his current password and the new one he desires. If I was using Apex Authentication that would be very easy I think, but I'm obligate to use Database Account Authentication.
Using Apex 4.1 and custom authentication based on Oracle Database users.
I want to be able to show a warning immediately after a user logs in if their password is due to expire in xx days. Oracle raises a warning (ORA-28002) but I don't know how to handle that from the standard Apex login page.
I need to create a forgot password page in which there will be two text box named user name and email id and user will provide his usename and email id in those text box. so apex will check that the provided name and email id are there in the data base and if email id corresponds to right user name then a mail will be send to that email Id containing auto generated password.
Any problem using 4.2's One Level Tabs - Content Frame page where you have a parent region (of type content frame Body Container ) while number of child regions (of type Hide & Show Region - Borderless ), if you want to re-order them by changing the sequence, it has no effect when you run the page.
The regions still show in the same order top to bottom as it did before the update of sequences. Heading links (to show/hide child regons in content frames) has the same ordering as before.
I have a wizard created tabular form, adding a row is easy using addRow() function, is there a way that I can delete the row from it? Let's say I have added a row and not submitted the form, but now I want to delete just that row from the form, how can I do that?
Apex has been upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2.2. I don't know if the upgrade was done correct or not by the administrator, but I don't have the page edit link anymore,
and anytime I run a individual page from the Edit Application, I have to Log in. Did something went wrong during the upgrade or is this the behavior of Apex now, which I don't think so.
when receiving the output of a report subscription in Apex 4.1.1, the search Box is missing, only the Text string 'Suche:' is displayed.If i download the report as Email or html, the search box is there and usable.
Maybe i'm wrong, but this was not under Apex 4.0.2.
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)?
I have to implement IR report search functionality (*when ever we click on column header it will display all the values in that particular column , once we click on particular value , the report will filter based on that particular value * ) in classic report .
I installed APEX 4.1 with EPG on Oracle linux 6 and for some reason I want to change image prefix from */i/* to */i4/*.
I browsed to apex/utilities and logged in sqlplus as sysdba and run the file:
@reset_image_prefix.sql choosing */i4/* as my new prefix.
then i tried:
select id, flow_image_prefix from apex_040100.wwv_flows; all application now have the prefix /i4/ but when I go to http://myserver:8080/apex nothing is displayed !!!!
when i change */i4/* back to */i/* everything is back to normal...
Im my application, after login, I have a hidden & protected item whose value I am setting based on a logic. Also I would like to access this item's value in a application process, so session will have this value. Now I do not want anybody to be able to change the value of this item. For Eg, if my item was P1_RESP, I was able to change its value in the following way, I have an edit link on somr IR, where I redirect to another page passing some values and the URL looks like : [URL] After the browser loads, I can edit the above URL to below and click enter, [URL]
Apex version 4.1.1.00.23IE8 (8.0.7601.17514)Firefox 25.0
I have a tabbed form that I need to conditionally disable rows (making them read only). I'm using Javascript to set the attributes of the fields that need to be set.A request was made to make the font color of the read only fields black so that they're easier to read.I'm not able to get the font changed to black on the fields that are Select Lists in Internet Explorer. They are staying gray, however, they are set to black in Firefox. The JavaScript code for one of the Select List is:
I have a page, Say page 1 ..and from that page 1 I go to a different page Say page 2 which is open like a modal window. Now what i need is i need to make a change in the first page that is page 1 ..from page 2 ..
I need to change a value of status field which is in page 1 to Say p100_status ... I think i might have to use application items to accomplish this.. So i Use the following method..
change the color of a row in APEX SQL report. Change Colour of Row - Oracle APEX SQL Report...It's a bit outdated, and trying to figure out how to get to this page: URL.....where I can conditionally set background color.
I am using theme 13 (legacy) and made a copy of the report region. Edited it but cannot find an equivalent section of that apex 3.1 screenshot.
I have a report linked to a form. The link column is currently ROWID and I want to change it to the Primary Key of the DB table, which is called ID.
I have done this before on a previous report/form where that ID was a display column and it works fine. Now I'm trying to copy what I did, which is this:
On the report page, go to Interactive Report attributes, scroll down to Link Column, and for Item 1, change the Name and Value.
The problem is that Name does not list P52_ID. If I type it in, it throws an error when I run the page.
I think I added ID, which is also a Display column, later on, so I wonder whether Apex has a refresh issue and can't "see" P52_ID.
I created a javascript to change background color upon double click on particular cell, and it works for normal tabular form.However I created another tabular form using APEX_ITEM and unable to replicate the same behaviour.. how to do that if I'm using APEX_ITEM?
We are planning to use an Application Express application for intranet and internet users. We want to implement a DMZ configuration for this application.
Is there any good guide to implement it?, we want to use Oracle Http Server to access Oracle Application Express.
I have installed APEX on my local machine, created a workspace, and added a few users with roles.
I am creating an application, similar to a Library app, where I have a table that stores Books information (BOOK_ID, BOOK_NAME, etc). I'd like to create another table BOOK_USER with two columns, BOOK_ID and USER_ID. BOOK_ID would refer to the BOOKS table, and I want USER_ID to refer to the table that stores user details of the workspace that I am using. The data entry would happen from a page that has two LOVs, one for book name (using BOOK_ID as the value) and another for user name (USER_ID, or whatever field APEX uses to store user's ID). Can I do that in APEX? I've found ways to access and authenticate a user for a page, but how to get data of all users in the workspace? In other words, how to get all usernames in a LOV?
I have installed Oracle 11g XE . After this , i have upgraded to Apex 4.2 All it's working fine, but..... by default XE installs and configure apex to use embebed pl/sql gateway.
In this scenario, the images are stored directly in the database within the oracle XML DB repository. This may be a problem because XE have a 11GB limit and my apex aplication is simple, but it may upload pictures for customers, etc, and in this schenma the pictures will consume space in the database instead consuming in the linux filesystem.Can i install HTTP server in a 11g XE and reconfigure apexr?, or can i change to apache+listener? or more easy....can i upload images outside the XML DB in my apex application easily?
I am trying for testing on test server where I am getting error while trying to connect
[URL].....
I am able to connect
[URL]........
and
[URL]......
The database version is 11g.
Actually my requirement is As I know we cannot use isqlplus in 11g we can use apex instead of isqlplus so any way or navigation how to use apex for isqlplus.
I cannot remember my password to access an existing database in Application Express. I tried entering my password 3 times, but the system does not provide a status other than 'Invalid Login Credentials'.
I am going to assume that 3 times is limit before you have to reset the password or from what I see reinstall. When selecting reset, the system asks for an email address that was never established in the system. How can I reset my password without uninstalling and reinstalling Oracle 11g XE?
2. Data entry form created using page items. - This page is used to create new users This page contains many items but issue with only two items. P10_LOGINNAME - Textfield P10_PASSWORD - Password
These items are used for creating loginname and password for new user. When i am logging with admin user ,Chrome browser prompts for save password or not save password
1. When i am logging with save password option then LOGINNAME and PASSWORD of Login page is reflecting on the LOGINNAME and PASSWORD of Data entry page.
so how can i clear the LOGINNAME and PASSWORD item on Data entry page after login.I have tried to set blank to these fields after login
I am trying to login to the web version of application express [URL]... and get a message that my login is incorrect. I have verified that the ID and workspace are correct, but I do not remember what i set my password to the first time i logged in (account was created by my instructor). There is no "forgot password" or "reset password" link that shows on the page.
