When off campus, why can't I log into a W&L application web site (like SharePoint) using Internet Explorer? (link) |
If one takes a W&L laptop that is in the W&L AD domain off campus and then attaches to a site that is in the IE 'Local Intranet' security zone, the laptop attempts to do pass-through integrated windows login. However, this requires that the computer has direct access to an AD domain controller, which is blocked in the firewall. Unfortunately, IE does not gracefully fall back to a username and password prompt in this case.
To configure IE to always prompt for a username and password:
1. Open Internet Explorer
2. Select “Tools”
3. Select “Internet Options”
4. Select “Security”
5. Select “Local intranet”
6. Select “Custom level…”
7. Scroll all the way to the last option and select “Prompt for user name and password”
8. Select “OK” to exit both dialog windows
To re-configure IE once you are back on campus, follow the same procedure, but in step 7, select “Automatic logon only in Intranet zone” |

Why can't I log on to a W&L authenticated web application? (link) |
Here are some of the most common symptoms and solutions to authentication failure to W&L web applications:
- You are repeatedly presented with a login prompt, which never is successful. You are using a personal computer, or are off campus. Try entering your user name with the prefix "AD\" . E.g. AD\MyAccountName . W&L's Active Directory domain is named "AD". This prefix tells the web server which domain to authenticate against.
- The previous step does not work, but in the popup, you see an option similar to "Use Another Account". Select that option, and use the AD\ prefix. In this case, your browser is using your computer's name as the authentication domain, and is ignoring the AD\ prefix.
- Has your W&L password expired? Has it been more that one year since you changed it? You may do so at http://password.wlu.edu.
- You are using FireFox version 30.0 on a Mac or Linux workstation. Release 30 breaks Windows authentication. See the following for a fix: http://managementtools.wlu.edu/Help/Resources/1/271.pdf
- You are using FireFox version 40, and accessing an unauthenticated page with authenticated content embedded in it. This version of FireFox intentionally disables this if the page and content are in different domains. You can configure Firefox to allow this, or use a different browser.
- You are using Safari, and receiving the error "request body stream exhausted". This is a bug with Safari authentication. Use a different browser.
- You are on an iOS device, recently updated to version 7. This update breaks windows authentication for some iOS devices like iPhones or iPads. Use another device.
- You are never presented with a login prompt. You are using Internet Explorer on a W&L computer, from off campus. Integrated Windows login is failing because the browser can not communicate with a W&L AD Domain Controller from off campus. Use another browser or temporarily disable Integrated Windows authentication: https://managementtools.wlu.edu/Help/Default.aspx?col=1&q=unable+log+login
If none of these solutions work, try going to http://MyVI.wlu.edu and opening a web browser from the APPS screen. Then, you will effectively be using a W&L computer, and on campus. This will bypass many issues associated with using personally owned computers. |

Why are some files unavailable in my personal web site? (link) |
If you right click on the files that do not work and look at the Security tab under Properties, the read permissions for the WWW user are missing. This is the account that the web servers use to read the data. Missing rights is usually caused by moving files between folders of differing security settings. Within a volume, the file server does not recalculate rights on a move. These files may have been dragged from elsewhere in the H: drive, and therefore did not receive the read permissions required. The easiest way to prevent this is to use copy/paste instead of drag or move, since rights are always re-calculated when a file is created.
To fix the existing files:
1. right click on the public_html folder
2. select properties
3. select security
4. select advanced
5. check the box “Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown here that apply to child objects”
6. select OK
7. select OK
This will force all the rights in the public_html folder to be recalculated. |

LOGGING INTO THE CAMPUS COMMUNICATIONS HUB CALENDAR
- Go to http://go.wlu.edu/CCH, or click on the "Calendar" link at the top any W&L web page and click on the "Events Calendar" link, found in the descriptive text in the center portion of the page, or from the blue navigation on the left.
- Once you've entered the Events Calendar section, choose "Login" from the blue navigation on the left.
- You will be sent to the Login page, where a large green button will be in the center. Members of the W&L community will click this button, and a dialog box will pop down from the top of your browser. Here you will enter your regular W&L username and password (You do not need to put AD/).
- Click Login.
GETTING TO KNOW THE ADMIN VIEW:
- Once you have logged in, you will see your left navigation has expanded to give you many more options, including "Submit an Event," as well as various filters to allow you to view all the events in either a daily, weekly or monthly view.
CREATING A NEW EVENT
- To add a new event, you must first click on "Submit an Event."
- At the top of the page, you will see two calendars. Here you can set a start and end date for your event. If the event takes place on only one day, make sure both calendars have the same day. Your selected date(s) will show up in green.
- Select a Primary Calendar for your event. Your primary calendar enables your event to feed to your department's homepage, as well as determines which calendar managers have edit rights to this event. Therefore, if you a contributor to the Web Communications calendar and selected Web Communications, the event would show up on the Web Communications website and other web team members would be able to edit the event if necessary. Once you have chosen a primary calendar, you will have the option of selection additional calendar associations for your event, including general calendars like Arts and Culture, Holiday Events, Public Events and Student Organizations. Note: All events will display on the default (master) calendar view. Multiple calendars can be selected, based on your personal access and the appropriateness of the event.
- Next, select a Primary Type. The primary event you choose for your event will appear in parentheses after your event title in the daily or weekly calendar view. For instance, if you have a speaker coming to campus and choose Speaker as your primary event type, your event will appear as "Name: Title of Talk" (Speaker) and your event will turn up in a search for speakers on the online calendar.
- If you have a special event type that you have been used to using, such as the Registrar and "Adjusted Class Schedule," these event types require a 2-step process to access. First, you have to be sure that you choose the correct Primary Calendar, which will likely be the main calendar you most often post to. Then, you must choose the closest match from the list of general Primay Types. Once a Primary Type is select, the field will expand to display checkboxes of all the general and special event types available. Therefore, if you wish to add "Adjusted Class Schedule" as a special event type, you would have to first select "Academic" as your primary schedule, then something like "Special Event" for your Primary Type, and finally "Adjusted Class Schedule" as an additional type.
- Fill in a Title for your event. Try to make it short, but descriptive enough that people will know what it is and wnat to come! In the case of speakers, we recommend formatting them as follows: Speaker Name: "Talk Title"
- Fill in an event description. HTML is not allowed, and while this may make some superusers a little disappointed, it makes our system much more stable. The only formatting available is line breaks, separating your paragraphs into logical blocks of information.
- Select a Start Time (and End Time if applicable) from the drop down box provided.
- Select the audience(s) for your event. This will allow your event to display on the audience dashboard pages for the audience you select (Current Students, Faculty/Staff, Alumni, Prospective Students, Parents and Visitors). We don't guarantee placement on these pages, but by selecting them, they become eligible for display and more importantly, are filterable on the larger calendar view.
- If the event is a closed event that requires tickets, permission or advanced registration, check the box (but be sure to explain how/where one might go to gain access in the description).
- Select a Campus Venue location for your event from the drop-down list, or indicate an alternate venue by selecting "Other Venue" from the drop down, then filling in the box that appears underneath.
- For Contact Information, you can either leave the default selection (yourself), or choose from the entire list of employees or students, as well as a field marked other. Simply select your choice, and choose from the drop-down menu with the appropriate person.
- If your event has a unique URL, such as http://mockconvention.com, you can enter it in the field provided. Be sure to add the http:// before your URL.
- When you check the box to nominate your event as featured, it is forwarded to the news office for special placement on the appropriate audience dashboard as well as the W&L homepage. We don't guarantee placement on these pages, and give preference to those events with the broadest appeal (generally multiple audiences.) Note that these events must appeal to a broad audience and are generally open to the entire University community and/or the public at large.
- When you create an event in the new CCH, you have the option to create a corresponding campus notice at the same time. If you don't wish to do so, click "save to calendar only." If you do wish to create a notice, keep in mind that your event will automatically appear in the Upcoming and Today sections (right sidebar) of Campus Notices beginning a week prior to the event date. Events that are classified with a primary type of "Deadline" will begin to appear in the Upcoming Deadlines listing 30 days prior to the deadline.
- If you choose "Save to Calendar and Create Campus Notices," you will be directed to a page where you can choose your audicence for the Campus Notice. Select the appropriate audience and proceed.
- You can then edit the subject & body copy of your notice, as well as select the first and second days that your notice will run. The selected days will be highlighted in green.
- Click "Post this Notice" and you are done!

What devices are supported on W&L's secure wireless network? (link) |
The wireless network for W&L faculty, staff and students uses a technology called 802.1x, which provides security by encrypting all network traffic.
Some older computers do not support this technology. However, most modern, up-to-date wireless devices will run on the secure wireless network:
- Windows computers with security features enabled, including auto-updates, firewall and up-to-date operating system
- Macintosh computers with security features enabled, include firewall and up-to-date operating system
- Apple iPad and iPod Touch
- Most Smart Phones with wireless capability, including iPhone, Blackberry, and Android-type phones
Game devices such as the Xbox 360 and Wii and other special-purpose network devices such as the Roku do not function on the secure wireless network. For such devices, use a wired connection, or register them for use on the wireless network.
Please note that wireless is a limited resource, and that minor disruptions are common; see Statement on Wireless Service at W&L

What can you tell me about my (student) phone in my campus residence? (link) |
If your campus residence is in the dorms, apartments, or sororities, your phone is already installed and ready for use. It is a Rolm 120 digital phone with the following features:
• Single-line digital telephone with 12 special function buttons • Eight common function buttons (hold, connect, transfer, volume up, volume down, flash, DND, message waiting) • One button to indicate line is in use • One-way speaker (you can hear but not speak) • Two spare buttons to access many other options • Four-digit dialing on campus • PhoneMail (Rolm's voice mail) • Do Not Disturb (DND) feature
If you reside in one of the fraternities, you will need to provide your own phone for your room. Since the phone lines in the fraternities are analog, a normal single line phone like you have at home is all you need (older rotary phones will not work on this system). However, in order to more easily take advantage of some of the system features, it will be beneficial to have a phone that has a "FLASH" button on it, but it is not required. Applies To: Students |

How do I use FLASH feature on my phone if I live off campus? (link) |
The FLASH function places any call on soft hold so that you can access a feature or dial another party. The soft hold lasts until you hang up or reconnect the call.
If you are not sure whether to FLASH before using a system feature, remember that you must have dial tone before using a feature. So, if you don't have dial tone, FLASH.
As a resident of off-campus housing, you provide your own phone and it is suggested that you use a phone that has a FLASH button since this feature is used to access so many system features. If you do not have a phone with a FLASH button, do the following: Press the switch hook on your phone for one second Listen for a tone followed by the high pitched holding tone
Note: Holding the switch hook down for longer than one second can disconnect your call.

What can you tell me (student) about long distance service phone in my campus residence? (link) |
Placement of outgoing long distance calls requires the use of your personal 7-digit authorization code. Your long distance code will be in you WebAdvisor account . No deposit is required for long distance service. No subscription fee or monthly service fee will be charged for an authorization code.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your authorization code and you will be responsible for all calls placed with your authorization code. If your authorization code is lost or stolen, or if for any reason you feel the security of this number has been compromised, immediately contact the W&L Telecommunications Office in person. Because of the serious nature of the loss of an authorization code, if the Telecommunications Office is closed, you should contact University Security immediately at 8999.
Since your telephone service is provided by the University, you may not subscribe to any "residential" long distance plan offered by another long distance carrier. However, you may obtain access to the interstate common carrier of your choice by establishing a calling card account with them and dialing the carrier's "800" access number. You may also reach an alternate carrier by dialing 9 + 1010xxx + 0 + phone number (for example, to access AT&T using this method, you would dial 9 + 1010288 + 0 + phone number). Contact your carrier for their three digit code and rates. Be aware that many advertised calling cards have per call surcharges or monthly fees associated with them, so read the fine print before committing to any of these services. Please remember that your alternate carrier calling card account can't be associated with your W&L phone system telephone number. A substantial service fee will be charged for calls billed back to your W&L telephone number. For more information, contact the Telecommunications Office.
Complaints related to operator services from any carrier may be addressed to: FCC, Common Carrier Bureau Enforcement Division, 2025 M Street NW, Washington DC, 20554. Applies To: Students |

When user logs in to check their quarantine queue, they are unable to select a message. The error they receive is that the message does not exist in their queue and they are logged in as the wrong user. The error message suggests they log out
and login again, but the problem remains. (link) |
From: DigiTar Support
This is usually caused by the following situation:
1.) The user is logged in as a@b.com. 2.) In the user's inbox there are two digests, one for a@b.com and one for c@b.com. 3.) The user is clicking on a message in the c@b.com digest in their inbox which tries to link them into the Portal directly to that message. 4.) However, since they are logged in as a@b.com, they have no rights to the message.
To remedy the situation they need to examine the subject line of the digest they are clicking on, and log into the Portal as the user specified in the subject of the digest. |

Why do authenticated forms embedded in unauthenticated web pages display a 401 Access Denied error using Firefox 40? (link) |
Version 40 of Firefox intentionally disables authenticated content embedded in unauthenticated web pages if the page and content are in different domains.
This can be manually fixed by:
- typing “about:config” in the address bar
- clicking “I’ll be careful, I promise!”
- searching for the Preference Name: network.auth.allow-subresource-auth
- Click the “1” next to that in the Value column and change to “2”
- click OK.
Once you refresh the page it will prompt for login. |

Can I get an exported list of all contacts at W&L that I can import into my personal address book in another mail client (Thunderbird, Gmail, etc.)? (link) |
We do not provide copies of the address list for two primary reasons. 1 - it becomes a nightmare to troubleshoot issues as more and more out-of-date address lists are in use, 2 - if a machine holding these addresses gets infected with a virus that uses or collects addresses then our whole address list would be compromised. |

I'm getting the error "The maximum number of cookie values has been reached"
when I am logged into WebAdvisor.
The same issue will happen with Student workflows, Web Time Entry Workflows, etc. (link) |
This error may have been caused by opening four or more WebAdvisor hyperlink windows. For example, if a user is reviewing their budget and clicks on the Actuals, which opens a new window, then clicks on a Voucher, which opens a new window; and the user does not close any of the child windows, and attempts to select another Actual, they will get the error.
All child windows must be closed using the CLOSE WINDOW button. If the user uses the browser's red X to close the windows, they will still get the error and be forced to log out and back in to WebAdvisor.
If this does not solve the problem you may need to review and then delete the webadvisor stored cookies.
In Chrome - Chrome Settings/Advanced/Content Settings/All Cookies &Site Data/Search "WebAdvisor"/ and Click X to to right of webadvisor.wlu.edu cookie to delete it
