I am extremely new to UiPath. I have inherited a project from an experienced UiPath developer. I am trying to find the username and password he uses to login to a specific app. Because the project is not working when executing in the development environment, it is possible the password has expired. I am on the machine he used to develop the project, but logged in under my name. I have found the process that does the "Get Credential". I am using a message box to show the username at this point. When I run the process The "Get Credential" activity returns the error "you are not authenticated Error Code:0" I have researched the error and found several answers as to why it is happening, but not what to do to either fix my problem or get around the problem. The UiPath.systems.Activites version used is 21.4.1. I am aware of the concept of the CredentialStores, but can't seem to find the one used for this project. Where would I find the name of the credential store used? How do I find the username? I need to test the change I made for a user request.
I am going to close this question as I have determined the correct password for what I needed to do. I have no need to get into the credential stores for a password.
Credential stores and password were not the actual issue with the error I was receiving. The error "Loading asset PreAuth_Citrix_FolderName failed:
You are not authenticated! Error code: 0" by referencing the word authenticated, I assumed it had to do with passwords. As I did more research I found the issue to be the new security certificate installed on our web server. While orchestrator recognized the new cert, the Identity Server was not updated with the new thumbprint. I found the information I need at this link https://forum.uipath.com/t/get-asset-you-are-not-authenticated-error-code-0/343910. Once I updated the Identity Server thumbprint, I no longer received the error and my jobs ran. (not successful, but at least they ran past this error!)

I have a working APEX installation, running ORDS in standalone mode, with several applications in use.
I have enabled my schema for ORDS and installed the sample service.
However, when I try to test the https:///ords/rest/hr/employees/ service, I get a 404.
I've tried:
Another schema within the installation, and it doesn't work there either.
Resetting the sample service. Nada.
De-registering and re-registering the schema under a different alias and installing the sample service again. Zip
Why this isn't working?
After much research and trials, I've found the answer:
TLDR: the password for the ORDS_PUBLIC_USER has expired
I found this article that talks about this problem, from which I was able to figure things out.
Apparently, by default, passwords expire after 180 days (of non-logging in?) and the corresponding account is locked. This seems to have no effect on the general operation of ORDS or APEX, since our production environment has been running without a problem for over a year.
The article recommends resetting the passwords of the following system accounts.
APEX_PUBLIC_USER
APEX_LISTENER
APEX_REST_PUBLIC_USER
ORDS_PUBLIC_USER
However, upon running
select * from dba_users where username like 'APEX%'
I could see that only the ORDS_PUBLIC_USER account was locked, so I only dealt with that one.
The article said to use the original passwords from when ORDS was installed, but upon inquiring what that was, I thought it too unsafe, so I decided to change it. That meant two things:
Resetting the users database password with
alter user ORDS_PUBLIC_USER identified by password account unlock;
( change password to your desired password )
Change the password in the corresponding password file, which can be found at a path similar to /ords19/prod/ords/conf/apex_pu.xml and looks like this.
Replace the value of the db.username entry with an exclamation mark, followed by the plaintext password of your choice, and save the file. Thus, if you wanted to use the password foobar, you'd put !foobar. (Don't worry: When ORDS restarts and reads the file, it encrypts the password and writes the encrypted version back to the file so no one snooping around in your filesystem can get at it.)
After I did all this, I restarted ORDS, and voila! My REST sample service now returns data as intended! Thank you Internet.
I am trying to setup a simple RPA application through BluePrism which will login into a website and will perform certain tasks. Now, while logging into the website through BluePrism I am getting Authentication error although the password and username is correct.
Normally, I can login but error is showing while logging through BluePrism. Can anyone please tell why this is happening?
There are two options for passing credentials (Username & Password)
1. Hard Coded - If you are using hard coded values, please check if values are correct. Sometimes space or any special characters can lead us to error.
2. Credential Manager - If you are passing credentials through credential manager make sure you are using correct variables mapping so that there is no mismatch.
3. Lastly make sure you are using wait stage so that while executing the application it is waiting for values to be pasted or passed before control moving to other screen or other function.
Please check caps lock key of keyboard, when running the process.
I have successfully installed liferay 7 and configured CAS 3.6 for SSO. Everything is working fine. I was able to create users, assign roles, create pages etc etc.
After few days, I was trying to create a new user via admin, I got warning "User 30810 is not allowed to access URL https://mysite:8443/group/control_panel/manage and portlet com_liferay_users_admin_web_portlet_UsersAdminPortlet". I could not able to create user. and from then that user does not have any permission that I use to do earlier.
I googled a lot on this, got few suggestions like
1) Adding below in portal-ext.properties:
redirect.url.security.mode=domain
redirect.url.domains.allowed=*.mysite.com
session.timeout.warning=0
session.timeout.auto.extend=true
2) Some links:
https://web.liferay.com/community/forums/-/message_boards/message/92226678
3) Somewhere it is mentioned that this it is bug with liferay started from liferay 7 GA4
4) If you read the link, it is mentioned that it related to Guest user and session expiration that starts causing this issue etc.
Had any one gone through this issue? Is there any solution or workaround for this?
I could not able to update this question with all the option I tried or solutions that is mentioned on google or liferay's official jira sites however I will keep updating this question with proper references.
Meanwhile
Do provide your suggestions/solutions.
"this starts happening when some session automatically logs out"
This phrase tells me several things, like the possibility of an user logging out even though you set "session.timeout.auto.extend".
Two basic scenarios where this can happen is:
When you close your tabs, after the assigned timeout, the user will be logged out. And when you got back, especially after a browser crash or using the back button, your browser used old data.
When you have the auto session extension working with a big timeout, leading to the possibility that the session timeout configured in Liferay being bigger than the one configured on the server.
On the last case, one might be interested on completed the config you exposed with short timeouts.
session.timeout.warning=0
session.timeout.auto.extend=true
session.timeout=5
session.timeout.redirect.on.expire=true
I know it is an old thread but it may help someone...
The "extend session" functionality is not working correctly and the final user session is expired, so when they try to log in, they have the wrong CSRF token from the previous session:
You have to double-check that the session.timeout Liferay portal.properties has the same value as the session timeout configured in your application server.
You have also check that the session.timeout.auto.extend.offset is greater than 60 seconds to avoid having problems with the chrome javascript intensive throttling
So i'm running into a problem I suspect I shouldn't be having and having tried several things i'm seemingly at an impasse.
I am trying to integrate LinkedIn login with Stormpath and it seems the accounts get created and technically the user is logged in, the application does return one of two errors:
"Token is invalid" or "Invalid state token provided."
I checked my id and secret several times and the authorized callback urls etc but I'm not sure where else to actually check, some help would be appreciated.
To try further I did in fact clone https://github.com/stormpath/stormpath-express-react-example and run it, and everything else works fine but again LinkedIn login on this app doesn't work so I suspect its not my code (maybe, after years of coding I'm never really comfortable saying its not my code, but there you have it).
I have attached the screenshot of things in case my now very tired eyes are missing something. Can someone point me to my mistake please?
For reference, Omar and I looked through this problem and realized that his server was not running ntp, and the clock was running fast.
This meant that the signed token request generated by Stormpath's Express integration was sent to Stormpath's REST API with a different valid time interval than expected, and thus failed validation.
We fixed it by installing ntp and syncing the server's time.
I have a website that uses Windows Authentication to authenticate its users. Normally when a user accesses the site on an IE browser the username field is populated with the computers domain name and user name. This is usually incorrect and the user enters the correct username and their password and can access the site.
I have a user now on Windows 7 IE8(I beleive) and the username field in the credential prompt is being autopopulated with domain\userName except the username is incorrect and we cannot change it. The user is unable to log into the site because of this. Has anyone experienced this before? Does anyone know why the username field cannot be changed? Solutions I have tried:
Clearing cache and stored form data/passwords etc
Site is in users trusted sites. So I had the user change the settings to "Prompt for username and password" but the prompt still comes up with the username autopopulated and does not let her change it.
I have never run into this before. Our users do not have any issue logging in, its just this one corporate location that was just set up and is running Windows 7(Rest of the company is under Windows XP) If it matters this is a sharepoint 2010 web application
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I have an entire group of users with this problem. Im willing to bet this would not be an issue in a different browser but they need to be able to use IE for application compatibility reasons.
Thanks!
I was able to fix it by doing the following:
Go to Start, Control Panel, User Accounts, then click Manage Your Credentials, and look for the credentials to your site, if they are there Modify and “Remove from vault” ( I suppose you could Edit them to the correct credentials but I just removed it and it did not prompt her).
She had the wrong credentials stored there. Im not sure why clearing the cache and passwords from the internet options didnt work but this did.
I had this problem with a user where the domain stored with the credentials could not be changed. This is the only item online I could find even close to my problem. The user saw "user-pcdomain\localusername" auto entered in the form. He tried to correct it with "workdomain\workusername" but got a message saying "Please enter a user name and password". Eventually we realized that his system was sending "user-pcdomain\workdomain" as his username. I've never seen a login misfire like that.
In his case he did not have his credentials stored but needed to add credentials - "workdomain\workusername" - for all of the domains he needed to access.
The point is - to expand on the answer - that IE or Windows 7 or both will store credentials incorrectly on rare occasions and the solution is be creative about adding\editing\remove credentials with Manage Your Credentials
