FileNet P8 Application Engine, Version 5.0.+       Application server:  WebLogic Application Server     

Enabling passing user credentials to client applications (WebLogic Server 9.2 only)

Some client applications such as WebDAV and Application Integration can require passing user credentials with Application Engine. Enable this communication by editing the config.xml file on the WebLogic Server.

Important: If you do not change config.xml, then users are prompted to enter their user name and password to complete any client operations, such as adding a document.

To enable passing user credentials:

  1. Stop the WebLogic server.
  2. Make a backup copy of config.xml located in deployment directory.

    For example: BEA_home/bea/user_projects/domains/domain_name/config/config.xml

  3. Edit config.xml.
    Important: The enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials entry must be entered as a single line without line breaks.
    1. Locate the <security-configuration> section and add the following line to the end of the section, just before the </security-configuration> tag:
      <enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>false
      </enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>
    2. Save your changes to config.xml and close the file.
  4. Restart WebLogic.
