Visual LANSA Forum

In the latest VLF version, we defined that the VLF (we use VLF ONE) should use VLF User Authority.
We defined a user with password.

But after this, it is still possible to logon with ANY user and ANY password......
In other words, the user authority is still not checked.

Is there something we forgot??

Kind regards,
René

Hi René,

Is framework authority enabled in the source of your logon IIP?

In the framework properties --> Web/RAMP Details tab --> IIP Component to validate VLF-ONE sign on
There is the name of your version of UF_OLOGON
In the source for that component, locate these lines:
If you want VLF-ONE security to be active you have to use:
#UseFrameworkObjectAuthority := True
(and check it in and compile it on the server)

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply.

I created a copy of the UF_OLOGON and use this one is my framework definition.

I created an admin user with password. But when I fill in the user and password I always get:
1) Please check your server logs.
2) Call to user IIP failed.

On my PC there is NO X_ERR.log at all.

Kind regards,
Rene

I started my VLF in trace mode and see nothing in my trace.

But When I use F12 in my browser window I see:

<script src="/LANSADIL/lansa_14_1_0_3/lansa.js"></script>

But on my server lansa.js is stored in:
D:\LANSADIL\X_WIN95\X_LANSA\web\vl\lansa_14_1_0_3\lansa.js


Could this be the problem??

Hi,

I think that I found the solution for this problem.

In the framework properties --> Web/RAMP Details tab --> IIP Component to validate VLF-ONE sign on

You can fill in the IIP Component name.
We created a copy of UF_OLOGON and give it the name: DIL_LOGON. We used that name, but the VLF uses the (short) internal name to call this program.
So instead of thus the name DIL_LOGON, we used the short name (max 8 characters) now: DIL_LOGO and this works now!!

So when you use the LANSA shipped component, you should fill in the short name UF_OLOGO.

Anything snapped into the VLF must be specified by its Identifier, not its name.

You can show the Identifier of an object in your VL-IDE lists like this: Here the names and the identifiers are all the same: Technically this happens because of the way that the *CREATE_FROM option works in the SET_REF command - http://docs.lansa.com/14/en/lansa015/in ... _ref_p.htm
