Orbeon Forms Integraions with Liferay

Hi All,
I have done below things to integrate liferay with orbeon forms first i have followed two strategies
                   1.One is with Standalone Orbeon forms setup (Version : 4.4 CE )
                   2.Integrate Orbeon forms with liferay  (Version : 4.4 CE/PE )

1. One is with Standalone Orbeon forms setup ()
       Step  1 :I have set up tomcat 7.0  with MySQL DB (5.1)
       Step 2 : I have configured below properties to connect DB in tomcat/config/server.xml
                   <Context
  path="/orbeon"
  docBase="../orbeon.war"
  reloadable="false"
        override="true"
        allowLinking="true">
        <Resource name="jdbc/mysql" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
                        initialSize="3" maxActive="10" maxIdle="20" maxWait="30000"
                        driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
                        poolPreparedStatements="true"
                        validationQuery="select 1 from dual"
                        testOnBorrow="true"
                        username="root"
                        password="ityug123"
                        url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/orbeon_tomcat?useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=UTF8"/> 
    </Context>
       Step 3 : Go to /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.37/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config
                     Rename the 'properties-local.xml.template' to  'properties-local.xml' place it below things
                   
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.persistence.provider.*.*.*" value="mysql"/>
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.persistence.mysql.datasource" value="mysql"/>
                        <property as="xs:anyURI" name="oxf.fr.persistence.app.uri.*.*.*" value="/fr/service/mysql"/>
     Step 4 : Go to /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.37/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/
                   Place below code in form-builder-permissions.xml
            <role name="*" app="*" form="*"/>
     Step 5 : Go to /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.37/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/
                 <resource-ref> <description>DataSource</description>
        <res-ref-name>jdbc/mysql</res-ref-name> 
                 (Note : JNDI Name 'mysql' must be match with inside server.xml Resource name and value in properties-local.xml)
        <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
        <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
           </resource-ref>
   Step 6 : Now inside i have placed authenticated person to created forms for that i have placed
                <role rolename="orbeon-user"/>
    <role rolename="orbeon-admin"/>
    <user username="test" password="test" roles="orbeon-user,orbeon-admin"/>
 
 Finally in this approach i have created forms and created forms are stored in My SQL DB and also user name i have configured in tomat-users.xml is stored in my db.

Problme in this Approach :
       Please help me regarding this approach for below things
       1.Is there any mechanism to handle different users to create forms like above (without hard coding in tomcat-users.xml)
      2.Dynamic users in place of username="dynamicusers"  i need to handle different users
      3.Or else any container driven or header driven approach to handle users management
      4.Or else any mechanism like create account option to users
      Please help me how to handle these users management in Orbeon Forms ?

 2.Integrate Orbeon forms with liferay  (Version : 4.4 CE/PE )
 In this approach i have followed below things
           Step 1 : Downloaded orbeon-4.4.1.201401151913-PE and extracted the zip file
           Step 2 : I have configured MySQL db details  in server.xml
           Step 3 : In Liferay tomcat server i have placed below war files  inside ' bundles/deploy'  folder
                         - orbeon.war
                         - orbeon -auth.war
                         - proxy-portlet.war
          Step 4 : Inside bundles/tomcat.6.6/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/ properties-local.xml

                 <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.method"          value="header"/>
                 <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.username" value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-User-Id"/>
                <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.group"    value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-Group"/>
                <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.roles"    value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-Roles"/ >
                <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.xforms.forward-submission-headers"
                         value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-User-Id "Liferay-Orbeon-User-Roles"/>
                 <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.persistence.provider.*.*.*" value="mysql"/>
                 <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.persistence.mysql.datasource" value="mysql"/>
                  <property as="xs:anyURI" name="oxf.fr.persistence.app.uri.*.*.*" value="/fr/service/mysql"/>
         Step 5 : I have logged in my liferay siteand  drag and drop the portlet and configured perfectely  ,able to create the forms fine and created forms are stored in my db but user name is not storing in orbeon_form_data

Problem in this approach :
             1.User name and last modified column in MySQL db orbeon_form-data table  are not storing anything
             2.Actual my requirement is who was logged into my site(liferay website ie.organization) that user information will be able store in my db .
            3.How to handle users or how to pass these users information to db
            4. In orbeon site i have followed below things in header/container approach
       http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/form-runner/form-runner-proxy-portlet-guide#TOC-Configure-the-proxy-portlet
           5. Please help regarding to integrate liferay with orbeon forms ?
           6 .Is there any customize way in liferay portlet jsp pages or controller classes will able display the formbuilder  using web services ?
           7. Or else is there any way after click on save to call my liferay portlet controller using web services ?

Please help me how to handle perimitted user to allow  create forms .

Thanks RaaZ .

Thank you  Erik,
I have followed the ' Header-driven method' and resolved logged in user information to store in orbeon_form_data
I have resolved to insert the username and last_modified-by details information in orbeon_form_data

Step 1 : Go to Orvbeon Scala Class observer the properties and place it same
/opt/SCALA/orbeon/src/main/scala/org/orbeon/oxf/portlet/liferay/LiferaySupport.scala
object LiferaySupport {

    private val HeaderNamesGetters = List[(String, User ⇒ List[String])](
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Id"          → (u ⇒ Option(u.getUserId) map (_.toString) toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Screen-Name" → (u ⇒ Option(u.getScreenName).toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Full-Name"   → (u ⇒ Option(u.getFullName).toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Email"       → (u ⇒ Option(u.getEmailAddress).toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Group-Id"    → (u ⇒ Option(u.getGroup) map (_.getGroupId.toString) toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Group-Name"  → (u ⇒ Option(u.getGroup) map (_.getName) toList),
        "Orbeon-Liferay-User-Roles"       → (u ⇒ u.getRoles.asScala map (_.getName) toList)
    )

Step 2: /opt/My One Click Workspace/bundles/tomcat-6.0.29/webapps/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/properties-local.xml
 
 Right Code Snippet :
                       
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.method"          value="header"/>
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.username" value="Orbeon-Liferay-User-Id"/>
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.group"    value="Orbeon-Liferay-User-Group-Id"/>
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.roles"    value="Orbeon-Liferay-User-Roles"/>
                        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.xforms.forward-submission-headers" value="Orbeon-Liferay-User-Id Orbeon-Liferay-User-Roles"/>
 Wrong Code Snippet :
               
        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.method"          value="header"/>
        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.username" value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-User-Id"/>
        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.group"    value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-Group"/>
        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.fr.authentication.header.roles"    value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-Roles"/>
        <property as="xs:string" name="oxf.xforms.forward-submission-headers" value="Liferay-Orbeon-User-User-Id  Liferay-Orbeon-User-Roles"/>
             Link to See : http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/form-runner/form-runner-proxy-portlet-guide#TOC-Configure-the-proxy-portlet
    Before i have incorrectly configured above properties so that the values like username and last_modified_time are not stored in the orbeon_form_data now with right code its storing everything fine.

Thanks,
