Encryption of password for the FDM script

I am currently on Hyperion 11.1.2.1 which runs on Windows 2008 Server SP1 and uses Oracle Database 10 G as a backend.

Currently, I have a script within the application of FDM which pulls data from database and load in the table of the application of the FDM.
It works all fine and does the job as expected.

But the only problem with this script, it's that the passwords are in a readable format that is specified in the parameters of connection as below

Code snippet:

Dim connectionString

' * Create the connection
Sun connection: connection = CreateObject ("ADODB. Connection")
Dim lines: set lines = CreateObject ("ADODB. Recordset')
connectionString = "Provider = msdaora; Data Source = TestRdbms; User Id = Testuser; Password = password567; »


' * Open connection
ConnectionString Connection.Open


Is there a way to make sure that this password is encrypted or not read by the user/admin.?
Please give your suggestions on this.

To use the udl from inside your script just to replace your line

connectionString = "Provider = msdaora; Data Source = TestRdbms; User Id = Testuser; Password = password567; »

with

connectionString = "File Name=C:\Path\To\Your\SourceDB.UDL";

  • File encryption of password for the planning

    I ran most of the planning utilities. When I run the utilities it ask for password. I need to use the encryption password to the password file. I don't really know the process. How to get the file. Could you guide me please I have read planning 11.1.2.1 admin guide page No 44-55. But I couldn't get the idea. Could you please guide me how to PasswordEncryption file?

    Thank you

    You have two options either just a key to enter without giving the password file (ignore this password file argument, past the rest of the arguments), all public services will ask for the password automatically to the next step.

    Or
    You can use the PasswordEncryption utility to generate a password file:

    1. go to Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1 via the command prompt.
    2. give the command as PasswordEncryption.bat
    3. press ENTER, it will ask for the password.
    4. Enter the password,
    5. your password is encrypted in your MyEncryptedPassword.txt who will be in the default Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1 location, you can give the file name with any other place (in step 2), if you want to.

    Move this file to other utilities as an argument.

  • First Cisco VIEW - change the password for the admin GUI of CLI

    Hello

    We had someone install an instance of VIEW with the Vmware EGG file, but it seems that they never take the GUI password (admin) during the installation phase.

    Does anyone know the process to re-run the configuration script or to change the password for the admin of the SSH session, so we are able to connect to the GUI?

    Thank you

    Andreas

    Hi Andreas,

    Sorry, that I was not able to respond until the EGG has been redeployed, however, it is possible to change the CLI from the server admin password.

    1 SSH on the server VIEW

    2 cd to/usr/local/cisco/dcm/fm/bin

    3 «./addUser.sh--help' to view the syntax of the command.

    The syntax for the addUser.sh script is «./addUser.sh .  The adduser script to add new accounts to users or change the password for the existing user accounts.

    4. to change the admin password, the command should look like this,

    «./adduser.sh admin .

    If you have forgotten the password for the database, you can find it in the file, usr/local/cisco/dcm/jboss-as.7.2.0-Final/standalone/conf/postgres.cfg.xml.  Use the 'cat /usr/local/cisco/dcm/jboss-as.7.2.0-Final/standalone/conf/postgres.cfg.xml' command to print the contents of the file to the screen.

    When you run this script, make sure you pay attention to the case of your users.

    So, when running:

    Ant f $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/fnd/txk/util/txkSoaConfigUtility.xml addASADMINToFNDVault

    Make sure you use 'ASADMIN' and NOT 'asadmin' when it prompts you for the username ASADMIN.

  • What are the consequences of the change of password for the admin user in golden gate?

    Hello

    I just picked up during surgery and allows us to replicate door data of gold. Unfortunately, the password for the user that has been created in the database for the Golden Gate has been lost.

    At the present time, processes are added and I was trying to connect but it fails with name of user and password invalid.

    I want to change it. Do I need to apply this new password anywhere after changing?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Not a lot of consequences, if you have changed the password where you had used.

    1. you must change the password of user goldengate in parameter files where ever you had mentioned, as the extract file etc..,.

    2. If you used the password encrypted, you must re-create the encryption password.

    3. If you used a user Alias id, then you must change this too.

  • How to find the password for the embedded weblogic Server

    How to find the password for the server weblogic shipped from jdeveloper please?

    User, please tell us our jdev version!

    You can't find. Once he lost you can set a new one. For this you can either remove server embedded weblogic (delete the DefaultDomain file in the folder system11.1.1.x.x.x.x.) either you go to the system11.1.1x.xx.x/DefaultDomain/servers/DefaultServer/security folder and open the file boot.properties and delete the encrypted user name and password values and enter the new values for them in normal character. Save the file and restart the integrated server. Connection with the new username and password and it should work.

    The new user name and password are encrypted automatically.

    Using my MacBook Pro El Capitan 10.11.3 running, I changed my code from Apple.  We have two iPhones and two iPads.  All are running 9.2.1.  As I made the change to the ID, other devices constantly ask me to enter the password for the old ID.  Of course, it no longer works, but I can't find a way to stop messages.  When I change to the new ID, devices of ask a password.  The password does not work and I am asked to create a new password.  If I do that, I can connect is no longer in my ID on the MacBook pro.  At this time, I again wonder to change my password, and the circle continues.  How can I get all the devices and the cloud to recognize the new ID and password?  This gets pretty annoying, and data is not shared between all the devices for applications like the calendar.
