Yikes. Hopefully it was a non-prod instance

It is a little old, but maybe review this:

Thanks Gianni. Good suggestion. Yea ... I think we're good on this now.

Hi Gianni, Must be something like that. Initially, they are there. But, after a refresh of the Catalog pane the are gone. When I do logout and log back in they are still gone. Charles

Update 2: Interesting. When I hit the refresh button, in the catalog, the "excess folder(s)" now disappear. But, I'm wondering if they are really gone though? Also, I only see one folder-object on the file system catalog. They are ghost folders

Update: > Seems to happen regardless a the folder name > not occurring in 'my folders'

One other thing, I was thinking. Take a look at: Identify User Or Program That Removed The Users In Embedded LDAP (Doc ID 2279833.1). Although it isn't meant primarily for this, I do see that you'd get an entry for each successful login. In the log you'd see something like this: #### Audit Record Begin <Jul 19, 2018…

I yield to the experts here ... but, if you must provide this, a quick way would be to use GREP (possibly AWK/SED too) on the saw logs. I had done this in the past just to get a sense if anyone was actually logging in to our application . The saw log should say something like " user XYZ logged in|logged out. You could put…

I'm in the southeastern US, greater Atlanta, GA. area. Let me know if anything good comes to town

Thanks a lot Gianni. Really. That was a very good clarification. I understand what you mean clearly. As I mentioned ... the slides a very well done, I just was not completely sure I was interpreting everything correctly. And, you did a good job filling in the blanks for me. I agree, we will model ours after the…

This thread is about to a popcorn-cinema party with Gianni trying to type out a novel ;-) I thought I was going to get the "Michael Jackson/Thriller" video? That is one of my favorites

Ok, thanks Gianni. That makes sense (it's also a good point for overall security). So, I think most of this mystery is solved now. Because each the bi consumer and custom role both had the authenticated-role, it was giving the multiple roles after a successful login. I understand what is happening now. In fact, there was…

Thanks Gianni. I did read through your slides. They are very informative. I'm still not 100% clear on everything, but that is to be expected as I am still learning in this area. So, let's start with the 'authenticated role'. Are you saying to remove it from each of the roles? For example ... in our case, we have 4 roles:…

Thank you for the follow up. I am still reviewing your slides ...

Thanks Christian! That's why I come here . But, seriously ... I haven't read this presentation. I will review and come back with some updates.

Thanks for the info. Did you review the note I posted?

Hi - You can start with a look at this: Diagnosing WLS Error Log Messages: Emergency oracle.dfw.incident BEA-000000 (Doc ID 2183025.1) But, as Gianni has mentioned, you should provide more insight about the details of your system (e.g. versions, etc.), and how it is behaving (now versus before) ... Regards, Charles

Thanks Venkata. Let me see if I can get what I need using this. I'll reply back with results. Charles

Hi ... anyone have any ideas on these? I did open an SR, but so far haven't gotten a definitive answer. It's not a major priority, but would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi 3703993, To add to Gianni's point, you should also provide some information about your environment/instance. At the very least ... your version. Assuming you are on 11g, try reviewing this note (which also contains links to the product documentation): OBIEE 11g: Error: "Exceeded configured maximum number of allowed…
