eXist Sessions with OPS
Locked
 
|
Hi,
i'm using my app with an external exist-db, but i use the rest-api to coomunicat with it. What i noticed is, that the actual session isn't closed after the submissions. So in very short time i got now about 10 sessions, but only one application. Is that correct? Can i explicit lose the connection after the submission? Another questions is: How can i tell the exist instance i'm talking to with my submissions and through rest, my username and password? At the moment i had to change the rights to "guest", but from now on i have to save internal data and protect them. So i have to use the right-management, but i don#t know how. Could someone help me with that? Thanks. -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

Hi,
I don't know about the external exist issue I'm afraid, but you can use the standard to pass user/pass http://user:pass@url or on the xforms:submission element you can use @xxforms:username and @xxforms:password HTH Ryan

It the session you are talking about on the eXist side? If you have a request from an authenticated user to Orbeon Forms, if when generating the page a request is made to eXist, the Authentication header is forwarded. So this should work as expected if you have the same user (with the same login/password) setup in eXist. In general, I have one eXist user for my application and the application is sending the username/password for that user when doing requests to eXist. This done with the @xxforms:username and @xxforms:password mentioned earlier in this thread by Ryan.

Hi,
i've got no idea how to authenticate a user to orbeon forms. Within my submission i tried both and none of them worked. Username: kkbib01 Passowrd: kkbib <xforms:submission id="delete-document-submission" serialize="false" method="delete" replace="none" f:url-type="resource" action="http://kkbib01:kkbib@localhost:8085/exist/rest//db/kkbib/forms/{{xxforms:instance('parameters-instance')/form-id}}/{{xxforms:instance('documents-instance')/documents/document[index('documents-repeat')]/id}}"/> and <xforms:submission id="delete-document-submission" serialize="false" method="delete" replace="none" f:url-type="resource" xxforms:username="kkbib01" xxforms:password="kkbib" action="http://localhost:8085/exist/rest//db/kkbib/forms/{{xxforms:instance('parameters-instance')/form-id}}/{{xxforms:instance('documents-instance')/documents/document[index('documents-repeat')]/id}}"/> Both times i got the following error message: HTTP Status 403 - Write access to collection denied; user=guest type Status report message Write access to collection denied; user=guest description Access to the specified resource (Write access to collection denied; user=guest) has been forbidden. So, this solution does not work with the externam exist-db? Or did i do something wrong?

Hi Marcus,
The two ways you mention should work. Are you having this problem with the "delete" method only, or can you reproduce it when using the "get" method as well? If you can reproduce this with a "get", you can try pasting the URL using the http://user:pwd@server syntax in the browser to see if it works there. Just to check if this is a problem at the Orbeon Forms level, or at the eXist level. Also you might want to make the query go through Apache tcpmon (http://ws.apache.org/commons/tcpmon/) to see what authorization gets sent by Orbeon Forms to eXist.

Hi,
the following URL does not work in my browser, should it? http://kkbib01:kkbib@...:8080/exist-1.1.1-newcore/rest//db/kkbib/forms/SIG/1 IE does not send the URL, only without user:pwd@ and then i get the following error message: HTTP Status 403 - Not allowed to read resource type Status report message Not allowed to read resource description Access to the specified resource (Not allowed to read resource) has been forbidden. Apache Tomcat/5.0 And in Firefox i get the same error message. Only when i set the properties of the Owner to guest i can get the xml-file from the DB. Do you know where i can change the policies or change the properties to get access to the DB?

In which way to you want to change the properties? Do you have a user "kkbib01" defined in eXist? Are the documents accessible to that user because they are owned by that user or by a group that contain that user?

Hi Alex,
as i wrote before, that URL works neither in IE nor in Firefox. Of course i have an existing user in exist called "kkbib01" with the passowrd: "kkbib" Because of that i need to use the username and password, if i don't want to change all properties to the "guest"-state. And the user kkbib01 is added to the group "dba", so it's a suer that has all rights inside exist. But i will try the exist link you gave me and hope to find help there :-( Thanks, Marcus ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alessandro Vernet" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Friday, April 13, 2007 2:43 AM Subject: Re: [ops-users] eXist Sessions with OPS > Marcus, > > On 4/12/07, Marcus <[hidden email]> wrote: >> Hi, >> the following URL does not work in my browser, should it? >> http://kkbib01:kkbib@...:8080/exist-1.1.1-newcore/rest//db/kkbib/forms/SIG/1 >> > > This syntax works with Firefox.

Hi Alex,
i wrote to the exist-mailing list and hope to get help there, but i tried the same with your internal exist-db, coming within ops.war and there it also does not work - sendling the request, directly through the browser. I added the xmlrpc-servlet to get access via the GUI from exist homepage. Created a new user "kkbib01" with password "kkbib". Changed my collection to Owner "kkbib01" the group to "dba", denied read, write and update for "all users", so only an authenticated user or a memeber of the group could get access to the collections an the files. Then i run the url: http://kkbib01:kkbib@127.0.0.1:8085/ops35/exist/rest/db/kkbib/forms/SIG/1 and id does not work either! So even your internal exist-db is not configured to accept this authentication method. I hope to get a tip from the other mailing list how to solve that problem, but perhaps that helps you to get another idea? Besides REST, is there another way sending my request to the db to store or retrieve data? Or do i have to use REST within the action of my submissions? It seems to be the easiest way, but if it is not possible to protect my data inside the db, i have to find another way :-(( If you've got any other hints, please let me know! If i got some helpful tipps from the exist mailinglist, i'll let you know too.

Hi Alex,
i havn't get any answer yet, but looking to some other threads i wonder if using the webdav-protocol won't do the same as the rest does? As we know until now, this one doesn't work. neither with the external, nor the internal exist-db http://kkbib01:kkbib@...:8080/exist-1.1.1-newcore/rest//db/kkbib/forms/SIG/1 But this one does work: http://kkbib01:kkbib@...:8080/exist-1.1.1-newcore/webdav//db/kkbib/forms/SIG/1 At the moment i had only time to test the get-request, and this works fine. I'll try now the update, store and delete submissions and hope they will work too.

Hi,
so I found out the following until now: 1. "Username" and "Password" are not supported by REST. It doesn't matter if i use the internal or the external exist-db! It does not work! Neither with xxforms:username="kkbib01" xxforms:password="kkbib" nor with http://kkbib01:kkbib@localhost..... Both versions fail! 2. "Username" and "Password" work as far as i can reproduce only with the WebDAV-Protocol and there also with using http://kkbib01:kkbib@localhost..... 3. The "Post"-Method does not work with the webdav-protocol. There i get the error-message, that it is not supported! :-( So here you have to use the REST-protocol! But "Username" and "Password" are not supported by REST, so i have to leave the reading-rights for ALL Users, otherwise i always get the message "permission denied" when trying to access one of these files! 4. So, for storing, updating or deleting files with another user than "guest" you havte to use the WebDAV-Protocol and there you can use http://kkbib01:kkbib@localhost..... That works quite well. I found the following resource on the Wiki http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/XForms/eXist "The key is to put the word "rest" in the URL: http://localhost:8080/exist/rest/db/home/juser/test/data.xml when doing a read but put the word "webdav" in the path when doing an HTTP PUT. http://localhost:8080/exist/webdav/db/home/juser/test/data.xml That is all there is too it! For more information see the eXist manual on using the REST and WebDAV interfaces for eXist." I'll search the manual for further information on that, but this are the facts i just found out.

Marcus,
I'm sure I use REST Authentication, but I'll have to check my code at home, because I don't use exist at work. Ryan Ryan Puddephatt "Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like

Hi Ryan,
if you could use the REST Authentication, please
let me know exactly how your submissons look like and where to authenticate the
User! I tested now for a whole day every combination i could think of, and those
i wrote last time where the only solutions that worked here :-(
Thanks a lot,
Marcus

In reply to this post by Ryan Puddephatt
Hi Ryan,
did you took a look at home and checked your
code?
Would be pleased to finish that problem with your
help.
Thanks,
Marcus

Marcus,
Sorry I had forgotten to do that, luckily I am at home now :-) In my page I have <xforms:instance id="some-instance" src="/exist/rest/db/application/file" xxforms:username="user" xxforms:password="pass"/> In my web.xml I have <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>exist-rest-servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/exist/rest/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet> <servlet-name>exist-rest-servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.exist.http.servlets.EXistServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>dynamic-content-type</param-name> <param-value>yes</param-name> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>basedir</param-name> <param-value>WEB-INF/</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>configuration</param-name> <param-value>exist-conf.xml</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>start</param-name> <param-value>true</param-name> </init-param> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> I've attached my exist-conf.xml see if that is different from you. Although I don't a recent version of OF, I am using a new version of Exist and it works fine! HTH Ryan Ryan Puddephatt "Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like

Hi Ryan,
in your lines there are no explicit submissons, so
i think all you do is reading that "instance" from your exist-db, right? And
normaly exist saves all data with "-rwur-ur-u" permissons, so reading should be
no problem with that rights-managment. Did you test it also with "-rwurwu---" or
even "-rwu------"??? So that only the user (and the users-group) have access
rights?
And am i right, that you load your instance out of
the exist-db? Or what is the src-tag for?
Marcus
