Worklight Application Center default userid/pw in the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise image? - center

I am running the default instance of the Worklight Server image in the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise.
When I am trying to log into the Worklight Application Center, I am presented with a login screen that asks for my userid and password.
Where can I find the values to enter?

The default username/password for Application Center is demo/demo. Try that.
You should, of course, change/remove these if/when time comes.

Package Security Identifier (SID) and Client Secret required for parse.com web

I try to initialize Windows phone 8 application with Parse. I would like to use Push notifications. In the Parse's web settings are Package Security Identifier (SID) and Client Secret required. I am not able to find what should I insert into these two textboxes. Windows Phone application has only its own App ID...
Can you tell me what is the right way how to set the Windows phone application up?
Thank you.

You are going to have to register your application with the windows store
The following documentation goes through how to do it for azure.. But the process should be the same fore you.
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-service-mobile-dotnet-backend-windows-store-dotnet-get-started-push-preview/
In the Windows Dev Center page for your new app, click Services.
In the Services page, click Live Services site under Microsoft Azure Mobile Services.
In the App Settings tab, make a note of the values of Client secret and Package security identifier (SID).

SSRS reporting service UAC error, already tried everything

Been trying to get SSRS reporting service set up for a while now, and been stuck on the issue with UAC.
After setting up the Reporting Service Configuration Manager settings, with service account using my PC's login account, Database using ReportServer$SQLEXPRESS, etc. when launching the server # 127.0.0.1/Reports it directs me to 127.0.0.1/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx and then after login with my PC's login this is what I get on my browser -
"User 'OCTETHP\Support' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed."
And I have done my researches online, I turned off UAC, I am on the administrator account, and I also tried to run the browser with right click to run as administrator option on both chrome and IE. Still does not solve this problem. Could anyone help me out with this??
I am currently running on windows 8.1. Thanks so much!
It is likely the problem is with the account the reporting server is running under (OCTETHP\Support). You may need to add this user to the web user group (IIS_WPG depending on your OS version). If that doesn't work, you can set the user to be a local administrator and work the permissions back from there.
If you want to run the reporting services from another account you'd want to follow these steps:
Open IIS Manager
Under websites locate the SSRS website (/Reports in your case)
In basic properties check the App Pool the site is running under
Go to the App Pools section of IIS and open the advanced properties
Setup the user that the App Pool runs under
You'll need to make sure the user is assigned to the web user group, and has permissions to access the folder that the website points to.

Azure Mobile Services SSO across W8.1 and WP8.1

What I want
I want to allow in app SSO between the Live Connect SDK and a single Mobile Services instance that I'll use as the backend for 2 applications, WP8 & W8.1. I want to do this without affecting existing users of the WP8 app that is already in the Windows Phone Store. Both apps will use the Live SDK for OneDrive access.
Existing Situation
I have a Windows Phone 8 application that uses Azure Mobile Services and the Live Connect SDK and I have set up SSO by
Registering the app in the Live Connect Developer Center
Setting the redirect URL in the Developer Center to the Mobile Services URL (used in the Live Connect authentication token)
Copying the Client ID into my app and passing it to the Live Connect SDK methods when I log in
Retrieving the Live Connect authentication token after login and passing it to the Mobile services login
Issues
This is fine but now I want to start building a companion Windows 8.1 app that uses the same Mobile Services instance and SSO but I'm running into a difficulty as below:
The Live Connect Developer Center app associated with the Windows 8.1 app needs to have the Package SID and the only way I can find to do this is to use the 'associate my app with the Windows Store' tool within Visual Studio. This creates a new app in the Live Connect Developer Center with the Windows 8.1 Package SID. I can't find any way to add this Package SID to my existing Live Connect app (i.e. the one used for the WP8 app).
I believe I need to use a single, shared Live Connect Developer Center app, and associated Client ID, for both my WP8 and W8.1 apps as the authentication token from Live Connect (documentation here) seems to include the 'user identifier - uid' that is 'An identifier for the user, which is unique to the app'. To me this also implies that if I change the client ID (i.e. effectively a new app from Live Connect's point of view) then it will appear to mobile services as if a new user is signing in and all their old data will no longer be accessible to them.
I have researched other people doing SSO across both platforms and they seem to be using a single app in the Live Connect Developer Center but in all cases that I have seen so far they use the Windows 8.1 app, because this has the Package SID, and set it to 'Mobile or desktop client app'. I have started from the other direction with the phone app first and I can't find any information about this. I'm also trying to avoid testing this all out in a live app in case it does cause issues.
I have posted in both the Mobile Services and Live Connect forums about these issues but without a reply. (I can only provide 2 links, check my profile in the Mobile Services forum for my other post).
My Question
How can I add Azure Mobile Services SSO to my new Window 8.1 app without breaking my existing WP8 app?
Thanks.
It looks like this question may have already been covered here:
Live Connect Authentication Token for use on Azure Mobile Services (REST)
Hope that helps!
This question has been answered by Matthew Henderson in the Azure Mobile Services forum
The simplified version is you need to use one Live Connect app in the Developer Center (i.e. the same Client ID used by both the W8.1 & WP8 apps)
To do this you either need to either:
a) Start with the Windows 8.1 app which will register the SID with the Live Connect app (this is the documented and easiest path) and then re-use this Client ID in the Windows Phone 8 app
OR
b) If you already have a Windows Phone 8 app as I did then you can change the automatically created SID association in the Live Connect Developer Center to allow the Windows 8.1 app to use the existing Windows Phone 8 Client ID. This is a less well documented feature.

Reporting instances

Currently I am trying to work with reporting service instances through local network.
But the problem is, I am using WMI provider for getting reporting service instances from other machine in local network, I am getting access denied exception.
Do you guys have any ideas how can I actually return all reporting service instances in local network, maybe without using WMI if it is possible?
Thanks, looking for your advices.
You need to the have the local admin of the SSRS Server go in and add users to be a 'browser'. By default SSRS is set up with only the local admin who installed the SSRS Server instance as the only one able to view the site. You need to go onto that server, log in, go into the
'Reporting Service Configuration Manager', Should display your 'ReportServer' instance if properly set up. Click OK, Click the 'Report Manager URL' on the left side, go to the link displayed. The default is usually like 'http: //(servername)/Reports'.
Once in you typically click 'site settings' on the upper right in SQL 2008 and higher. Click Security, add user or group as a 'System User'. Next go back to the 'home' landing page. Click 'Folder Settings', Security do the same thing except for 'Browser' if you want them to see reports. If you cannot get to this main landing page from the local user that installed you have other issues and need to first determine that an admin can log on. This should be the first step of administering SSRS, is verifying the default admin can log in and see the site and the web service.

How to enable Windows Authentication for DNN

Sorry my question might be duplicate but i dint find any correct solution.So im posting this question again...
First i have deployed a DNN website with sql server authentication.Site was working fine.
Later we re installed the sql server 2008. So im trying to give windows authentication to connect the site.
In web config connectionstring:i have removed the username and password and gave Integrated security="true" .
In IIS :Site -> Authentication -> windows Authentication ->enabled and all others disabled.
once i browse the site is redirecting to DNN install Wizard
Need Help.
In SQL Server did you configure the Windows account that the application pool (in IIS) is using to have DBOwner access to the database?
Also make sure to change BOTH connection strings in the database.
Depending on what version of IIS you are on, that account might differ. Older versions likely would use "Network Service" while newer versions might also use "Network Service" or an application pool specific account like "iis apppool\dnndev"
You'll also want to make sure that you aren't trying to assign a DOMAIN account to the database, unless of course that is what IIS is configured to use (as opposed to a local account)
