party can have multiple usernames

Ofbiz permits a party to be issued multiple usernames for login purposes. The document says that each username can provide the party with different access to the system.
Could someone give me a practical scenario where this is useful?

As an additional thought, could it be that multiple usenames for a party is more applicable for the scenario where a party refers to a group and not a person.

Thanks in advance.

Re: party can have multiple usernames

I think it would help if you have a look at the admin party's usernames. Remember admin is coincidently a party Id as well as username. One of the admin party's username is demoadmin, another is flexadmin. There is also admin and 1. The number 1 is for POS I assume. Also remeber each username is associated with one or more security groups. Hope this helps.

Thanks
Ahmed

I followed the instructions on the link above, and managed to successfully setup Ofbiz to run under external Tomcat, however this does not answer your question. Ofbiz will not be under Tomcat's webapp directory, but it will run Ok.

Had a conversation with someone in the office and we came up with two scenarios ...

a) Based on the document; You have a person that has operations and administrative permission to the system. For day-to-day use you would want them to logon with their operations userlogin (and that more restrictive set of permissions). They would only logon with the admin userlogin when they need to perform administrative functions.

b) Based on your last sentence; you have a B2B application where your customer is another business but that business has a number of people that work for them that can place orders for the business.

Re: party can have multiple usernames

In reply to this post by wt@teksavvy.com

you have parties and party groups.
You can assigned roles both that all logins share.
Login carry the Security for that login which along with roles
determines access to components in ofbiz.
Only a few should have full admin rights.
also based on the party and or party group, the Myportal is setup for
the most used pages for that party.
a Scenario for a party group would be Acct Dept, Customer support, etc.
under that would be the logins for those.
Party usually only has one login. The security and roles for that login
determine their access and operation they can perform.
You can see the roles in the Data model book Vol 1 page 45 figure 2.6a
Security is like can they Create, UPdate, View, Delete information.

RE: can we host this application inside webapps in tomacat server

Hi Manish,

I suggest - not install \Java\jre in directory = C:\Program Files\..
Just direct to C:\java\jre6

Maybe, this will help.

Looks like your heap size JVM argument is not passed correctly to JVM.
try including it inside the double quotes.

Thanks,

Well looking at your startup sequence, there definitely is conflicting info
there, check your command line at the highlighted sections (sorry, this is
just set bold, so if your mail agent does not do RTF, bad luck) ...

VM start exception: VM initialization failed for: C:\Program

> Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_12\jre\bin\java *-Xms256m -Xmx512m*-Dofbiz.home=E:/ofbiz
> -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager

> org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start

so your "exploded" startup line (amended by the Tomcat scripts) specifies
two different initial and two different max Heap Sizes.

I recommend two things:
* set -Xms512M to both and -Xmx1024M to both values
* if this is your production configuration, make sure you min and max
setting are identical in order to reach good performance.

Hi Manish,

I think your Java jdk CANNOT resolve path C:\Program Files\...
Try to install you JAVA JDK in directory C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_12\jre\bin...etc
see if there is any changes at error response.

Re: can we host this application inside webapps in tomacat server

Did you try Chuck's suggestion, i.e. getting rid of the spaces in your paths
for JVM startup? You should then also change your entire CATALINA_HOME
(which is C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0 from what I
see below) to include zero white spaces, not only the "C:\Program Files"
part of it.

E.g. my CATALINA_HOME sits at D:\apache-tomcat-6.0.18, so no whitespace at
all.

Carsten

Subject: Re: can we host this application inside webapps in tomacat server

Did you try Chuck's suggestion, i.e. getting rid of the spaces in your paths
for JVM startup? You should then also change your entire CATALINA_HOME
(which is C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0 from what I
see below) to include zero white spaces, not only the "C:\Program Files"
part of it.

E.g. my CATALINA_HOME sits at D:\apache-tomcat-6.0.18, so no whitespace at
all.

In reply to this post by c.schinzer

java does not tolerate spaces in path.
you still have spaces in your paths
please check the log you sent.

Re: can we host this application inside webapps in tomacat server

As I pointed out before, log clearly tells about the problem i.e.
"Invalid initial heap size". I am not sure what is wrong there but
certainly this is the cause of the problem as reported by Java
executable. Does your system have enough RAM? Try removing the -Xms and
-Xmx VM arguments all together, run Tomcat and if it goes beyond this
point add them correctly. Also paste the part of the script where these
two are defined.
