mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Installed and working really well thanks Nick - loving the whole school calendar tile thanks for including that in the release Staff have already commented on how useful it is.... Dunno if you like to see how your system is being used - but have attached a screenshot Still gutted there is no way to have these tiles set up on a version of HAP that will autologin - the amount of info they get at a glance is just ideal for their internet start page. If there is anyone who could amend this, I would be willing to pay? I don't need them to access anything other then the homepage - I dont care that they have to log in for room booking, because that is a good layer of security... I just want it to auto log them in, or ask once and remember so that they can get their live tiles?
nickbro Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Give it a try, I have done some changes that should allow Windows Authentication. If you do just let me know what it does
mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 Same as before it appears. error 500 on loading scripts, lots of Internal error pop ups as it tries to load tile elements. I have a local DNS entry for the external SSL address - when I enter it that way I get a pop up asking for details (then same errors) If I go via the local address, obviously I get an SSL error and then I get the pop ups, but it does log me in automatically. Simple solution to that I guess - install HAP Internal on another server - but don't want to do that until I can sort the erro 500 codes - However if I did - would it then be difficult/impossible to point the booking system live tile to check the booking system on the other instance?
nickbro Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 It doesn't seem to like it. The Windows Credentials don't get passed correctly. Sorry about that, it still requires Forms based authentication. You can use by desktop gadget for the desktops
mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 I have got that working on my test PC, struggling elsewhere tbh. Also because the school calendar is staff only, its not easy to define whose computer may be a teachers and whose isnt. Such a shame tbh... Is there anything we could do to get it to remember people once they have logged in?
nickbro Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Use folder/file permissions to deny students from running the application
mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 Good point. Still got to investigate why it is not working on some machines... Any ideas of the cookie for login? Could we just set it not to expire?
nickbro Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Major security risk on that one. I would not advise it. Plus the hapToken (the 2nd of 2 cookies) is hard coded for session only use
mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 I just figured on an internal system, with no myfiles linked into it/booking system etc? I get it on the live external system being an issue. Never mind tho ... ! Ive been looking at exchange 2010 web parts to see if I can achieve something similar.
reggiep Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 This looks brilliant. Where does it get the info for the school calendar from?
mattianuk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Posted October 3, 2012 We have a calendar account on exchange 2010. 8.1 allows you to map a calendar tile to an account, see the docs included
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Can anyone help I currently use HAP version 6 I think on my existing server. I am now setting up the new version 8.1 on the samer server under a new name. I am having a few issues. Followed the video, set the permissions e.t.c. when i go to IIS to change the authentication settings i get the error: there was a error while performing this oepration filename \\?\c:\inetpub\wwwroot\hap\web.config line number 248 section end points cannot be read becuase it is missing a declaration any ideas?
nickbro Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 v8 requires the full .net 4 framework. v6 was .net 3.5
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Nick very sorry, I have just double checked it was version 7 I was running. It uses .net framework v4.0 30319 My old version works well without any issues on the same server so i assumed it would be a similar install Sorry for not having the correct details on my first post.
nickbro Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Check to see if you need to remove the .svg line from the web.config file
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 delete either of the two .svg lines and I still have the same issue?
nickbro Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Ok, delete the web.config file and use IIS to recreate it then overwrite the file from the HAP+ Web Full ZIP
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 deleted the file, was then able to change the authentication permissions. Browse to the web page and get the error: 500 internal server error there is a problem with the resource you are looking for If i browse to the location and setup.aspx i get the error Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine. Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off". Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.
nickbro Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Did you replace the web.config file again with the one from the release?
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 either me being daft? but i copied the file a second time and it now works, the only issue I now have is When i load the setup.aspx page the pictures display as X 's and doesnt display correctly on the page (internet explorer 8) tried this on the server and windows xp machine
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Nearly there nick Loads correctly, bit of an issue when going between menus, i have to right click and open in new tab. It wont just let me left click between general / active directory e.t.c. on the active directory screen i now get system.servicemodelserviceactivationexception when i enter the D credentials, I even checked to make sure they were identical from my existing home access plus install any ideas
gaz003 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 checks - red cross IIS7 integration - green tick services activated - red cross app data write access - green tick
