List object API call is disabled despite adding EnableListObjects=TRUE

[smallredville]

Hi All,

Recently I posted a topic titled : "List object API call is disabled".

I got a reply from ggriffit and also got a reference to

https://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objId=16302585&objAction=ArticleView.

The solution given in the above link is as follows:
1. Stop the Livelink Server service.
2. Locate the opentext.ini file in the Livelink_home\config folder.
3. Using a text editor, edit the opentext.ini file, and ensure that the value of the EnableListObjects parameter, in the [Options] section of the file, is TRUE, as in the following example:

[Options]
EnableListObjects=TRUE

4. Save the modified opentext.ini file.
5. Restart the Livelink Server service.

When I opened the "opentext.ini" - under the [options] - I didnt find EnableListObjects.

So I added in myself EnableListObjects=TRUE to [options].

But still I got the same error message (List object API call is disabled).


Have anyone ever encountered this issue, please share with me on how to deal with it.

Lastly, many thanks in advance =)

Regards,
smallredville

Dear All,

I (by chance) found the solution to the error message:
"ListObjects API is disabled"

The solution is similar to the reference given by ggriffit, just that instead of in [options] under opentext.ini, I put the EnableListObjects = TRUE in [lapi] under opentext.ini

Regard&Thanks,

Bhupinder posted a patch explaining the security vulnerability and if you look at the patch code you can see that the key needs to be under as you rightly say [lapi]

if ( sysPref.GetPrefBoolean( 'Lapi', 'EnableListObjects', FALSE ) )

In oscript that just means that if there is a preference called
Lapi and if EnableListObjects is found then use that for the Boolean value.If the prefis not found then use default value of "false".Just thought people would like to know.


Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?
