Sling mapping issue with Query String

For a button component, URL behaves differently with query string. Please let me know the sling mapping example for query string.
Button component behavior across env:-
Working Scenario:-
- In Author edit mode, URL pointing to "/content/<websitelink>"
- In Author preview mode shows URL "<host>:<port>/content/<websitelink>.html"
- In Publisher mode shows URL, "<host>:<port>/<websitelink>", we do not want "/content" before website link so it is fine.
Failure Scenario with query string:-
- In Author edit mode URL pointing to "/content/<websitelink>?username=han"
- In Author preview mode with URL "<host>:<port>/content/<websitelink>?username=han"
- In Publisher mode, <host>:<port>/content/<websitelink>?username=han - Here we see the content, which is not acceptable in our scenario.
Please let me know the mapping changes when we have a URL with query string.

1) I assume you configure as per the rules mentioned in http://sling.apache.org/site/mappings-for-resource-resolution.html --> 'Mapping Entry Specification' under /etc/map. Based on the configuration in /etc/map and the website that we publish, it translates and shows all the applicable combination in the Felix console http://<host>:<port>/system/console/jcrresolver.
2) How does Adobe CQ 5.4 resolve the right mapping, if we have multiple map folder like below in /etc directory with the same website with different rules.
etc/map --> http --> <website> with property sling:match, sling:internalRedirect
etc/map.publish --> http --> <website> with property sling:match, sling:internalRedirect
etc/map.publish-stag --> http --> <website> with property sling:match, sling:internalRedirect
Kindly clarify.

SharePoint 2013 List View with query string filter stops working after editing view from browser

I have created one list definition in which I have added one list view which will filter data from query string paramater
So when I am creating list from my list definition, view with query string filter is working fine.
But when I am modifying view from UI(I am not changing any thing , just opening "Modify View" page and then click on "Save" button), view gets stop working means it's not filtering data based on query string

Hi JayJT,
The Miscellaneous is located in the contact list that you used for the connection.
So , you need to edit the page, then edit the contact list that you used, in the web part properties of the contact list, you will find Miscellaneous, then expand it and select ‘Server Render’ .
I hope this helps.

File uri with query string can't be propagated by desktop.browse()

I have been trying to show some help pages using the following command:
java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop().browse( helpURI);
while the helpURI.toString() prints out the following:
file:///C:/Share/Code/phoenix/Install/REDIST/Help_Files/en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?context=BD&href=Chapter%202%20-%20Configuration.1.14.html
But when the getDesktop().browse() API is executed it will only propagate the uri-path and not the query string.
So the browser shows the following url as a result of the browse() call:
C:\Share\Code\phoenix\Install\REDIST\Help_Files\en\wwhelp\wwhimpl\js\html\wwhelp.htm
But if I manually copy the string "file:///C:/Share/Code/phoenix/Install/REDIST/Help_Files/en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?context=BD&href=Chapter%202%20-%20Configuration.1.14.html" to the internet explorer it works fine.
So can somebody give me any guidance on how I can propagate the file uri with query string through the browse() API or is there a better API for that?
Sibon.

The "cmd /S /C" suggestion didn't seem to work. I don't think the problem is in java but how the command line parameter needs to be added from msdos shell to "iexplore.exe"
When from the command line I enter the following command:
iexplore.exe file:///C:/Share/Code/phoenix/Install/REDIST/Help_Files/en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?context=BD&href=Chapter%202%20-%20Configuration.1.14.html
I get the same result as invoking from java Desktop API --- it truncates everything from question mark. I tried palying around with double quotes, single quotes, escaping and nothing seem to work.
Any ideas?

Hi Alex,
I had a scenario like this in the past.
In most cases you call Services for Lookups.
In such a Case use the
Com.sap.aii.mapping.lookup.api and use the accessor and the lookup services for the same.
In such a case the Communication Channel can store the web addresses and XML,
you just need to
1. Create a Channel object based on the channel
2. Derive a accessor out of it
3. Use the accessor to Bulid your payload
4. parse your payload.

Having problems creating PDF from website with query-string URLs

I have a website that I would like to create a PDF from. I am using the Create -> PDF from Web Page..., selecting the site's home page, and capturing 2 levels, with "stay on same path" and "stay on same server" checked in order to limit the scope of the crawl.
Where the pages are at example.com/foo/ and example.com/foo/bar/, this works fine. However, where the pages are at example.com/foo/ and example.com/foo/?p=1, the page represented by the query string URL is not converted to the PDF.
This is a problem, given that the site I want to archive as a PDF uses query strings for most of its pages.
I have been able to individually convert a single query-string-based page into a PDF using this method, but doing this for every page on the site would be almost impossible given the sheer number of pages on the site.
Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround other than separately capturing each page (which would be prohibitive effort)?
I have tried this in both Acrobat Pro X and Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac, with the same results.

Remember, Acrobat is a 32-bit application and as such cannot access all that 'extra' stuff.

QueryString issues with Query Builder and Search Box

Hi Guys,
I've got the following scenario (Issues are bolded for quicker reading):
I have a search results pages named results.aspx
I have a page, named messages.aspx, with a webpart that display messages from a specific folder (which can be changed in the webpart properties). On that page, there's a search box which will lead to results.aspx, and will do search only on the specific
folder.
On the other hand, when I'm using Content Search Web Part, I can use the query builder to do the following:
ParentLink:{QueryString.folder}
So all I have left to do is to send the folder as a query string parameter from messages.aspx to results.aspx.
(1) The search box doesn't support sending other QueryString parameters,
which is also known to happen in previous SP versions, so I fixed the onclick events and voila, the folder parameter is transferred to results.aspx.
But something weird happens in results.aspx:
When I'm first redirected from messagses.aspx to results.aspx I get the follwing URL:
/Pages/results.aspx?k=Washington&folder=Home - I've got results
When another query is issued from the search box of results.aspx I'm getting the folliwing URL:
/Pages/results.aspx?k=Washington&folder=Home#k=Indiana - I've got NO results.
Same with paging:
/Pages/results.aspx?k=Washington&folder=Home#s=11
(2) When a QueryString parameter is present in the results.aspx page, and than another query (different keywords, paging or anything) is issued using AJAX and hashtags - no results are returned.
My guess is a client side issue: When the a new query is issued, adding a hashtag (#) to the URL, it ignores the QueryString parameter currently present in the URL, and thus the server doesn't recieve it in the query packet/http post xml, which creates a
valid query with no results, in my case: ParentLink:"", which I manually checked and does yield no results.
I've also tried the following with no help:
/Pages/results.aspx#k=Washington#folder=Home - no results. my guess is that folder is now not a QueryString
/Pages/results.aspx?folder=Home#k=Washington - No results.
/Pages/results.aspx#k=Washington&folder=Home - The query text issued was "Washington&folder=Home" - no results of course.
Any ideas any one?
Amir

Hi Amir,
after some months I found a workaround that solves this issue: just add & after your query string value, it will separate your parameter value from other strings that may be added by sharepoint controls.
ie:
if your page is http://spsite/page.aspx?param=value
just call it like this http://spsite/page.aspx?param=value&
It works!

Performance issues with query input variable selection in ODS

Hi everyone
We've upgraded from BW 3.0B to NW04s BI using SP12.
There is a problem encountered with input variable selection. This happens regardless of using BEx (new or old 3.x) or using RSRT. When using the F4 search help (or "Select from list" in BEx context) to list possible values, this takes forever for large ODS (containing millions of records).
Using ST01 and SM50 to trace the code in the same query, we see a difference here:
NW04s BI SQL command
SELECT
"P0000"."COMP_CODE" AS "0000000032" ,"T0000"."TXTMD" AS "0000000032_TXTMD"
FROM
( "/BI0/PCOMP_CODE" "P0000" ) LEFT OUTER JOIN "/BI0/TCOMP_CODE" "T0000" ON "P0000"."COMP_CODE" = "T0000
"."COMP_CODE"
WHERE
"P0000"."OBJVERS" = 'A' AND "P0000"."COMP_CODE" IN ( SELECT "O"."COMP_CODE" AS "KEY" FROM
"/BI0/APY_PP_C100" "O" )
ORDER BY
"P0000"."COMP_CODE" ASC#
BW 3.0B SQL command:
SELECT ROWNUM < 500 ....
In 3.0B, rownum is limited to 500 and this results in a speedy, though limited query. In the new NW04s BI, this renders the selection screen unusable as ABAP dumps for timing out will occur first due to the large data volume searched using sequential read.
It will not be feasible to create indexes for every single query selection parameter (issues with oerformance when loading, space required etc.). Is there a reason why SAP seems have fallen back on a less effective code for this?
I have tried to change the number of selected rows to <500 in BEx settings but one must reach a responsive screen in order to get to that setting and it is not always possible or saved for the next run.
Anyone with similar experience or can provide help on this?

here is a reason why the F4 help on ODS was faster in BW 3.x.
In BW 3.x the ODS did not support the read mode "Only values in
InfoProvider". So If I compare the different SQL statements I propose
to change the F4 mode in the InfoProvider specific properties to
"About master data". This is the fastest F4 mode.
As an alternative you can define indexes on your ODS to speed up F4.
So would need a non-unique index on InfoObject 0COMP_CODE in your ODS

Issue with Query on a virtual infoprovider

Hello,
I am getting the following error message while executing a query on a virtual infoprovider. We have recently gone through upgrade from BI 3.5 to BI 7.0 EHP1 (SP5) and from SEM BCS 4.0 to BCS 6.0.
EVersion not specified or not unique                                                             UCR0                006

this query has been running fine before the upgrade. In the selection screen there are two fields - version1 and version2, if I am specifying same value in both the fields then the query runs fine and if I am providing different values then the above stated error message appears.
I have tried different settings with properties - Read mode: H,A,X and also different combination from the properties of the virtual infoprovider - with and w/o hierarchies; with and w/o navigation attributes but it did not workout.
the only thing which has changed on this virtual provider is that I had enabled delta caching as this was supposed to be used in a multiprovider.
Has anyone experienced similar issue or have an idea as to what is going wrong here. Please advice.
Regards,
Manish

Hi Manish,
I have exactly the same issue with a query on a virtual infoprovider after upgrading from BI 3.5 to BI 7.0 EHP1 (SP5) and from SEM BCS 4.0 to BCS 6.0.
Would you be so kind to tell me how you fixed this. (other queries seem to be working)

Graphical mapping issue with useOneAsMany if segment does not exist

Hi all
I have an issue with graphical mapping in an IDoc to file scenario. I need to have header level fields mapped to line item fields. Whether or not and how many source header segments of the same type exist depends on a qualifier (QUALF). This is generally working if I use the following graphical mapping:
if QUALF = 001 then <source> -> removeContext -> useOneAsMany -> splitByValue -> <target>
... with setting QUALF, <source>, and the second input for the useOneAsMany to the highest possible context node.
Nevertheless, if the segment with the qualifier 001 does not exist in the source then the mapping throws the error "Too few values in first queue in fuction useOneAsMany". Whatever I've tried, the mapping wants to execute the useOneAsMany statement anyway and I haven't found a way to omit this. Whether the target would be created with an empty value or not created at all would be secondary. Would eventually somebody have a solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Daniel,
try using mapWithDefault function before useAsmany
if QUALF = 001 then <source> -> removeContext -> MapwithDefault->useOneAsMany -> splitByValue -> <target>
I think it takes care even if the value occur in the contaxt or.

Mapping issue with context again

I again need help with a mapping issue. I dont know how to handle the contexts to get this working in the xi graphical mapping tool. I have previously logged a question regarding this structure but the requirements have now changed.
I have a source document that has multiple delivery line items and for each delivery line item, there are multiple handling units. Each handling unit contains the line number of the delivery line item it belongs to. This structure has been simplified below.
Source Sample
<DOCUMENT>
<DELIVERY_LINEITEM>
<LINENUMBER>10</LINENUMBER>
<MATERIAL>mat 1</MATERIAL>
</DELIVERY_LINEITEM >
<DELIVERY_LINEITEM >
<LINENUMBER>20</LINENUMBER>
<MATERIAL>mat 2</MATERIAL>
</DELIVERY_LINEITEM >

</HU_ITEM>
</HANDLING_UNITS>
<HANDLING_UNITS>
<HU_LABEL>456</HU_LABEL>

<LINENUMBER>10</LINENUMBER>
</HU_ITEM>
</HANDLING_UNITS>
<HANDLING_UNITS>
<HU_LABEL>789</HU_LABEL>
<HU_ITEM>
<LINENUMBER>20</LINENUMBER>
</HU_ITEM>
</HANDLING_UNITS>
</DOCUMENT>
Source Structure

DELIVERY_LINEITEM 1..unbounded
LINENUMBER 1..1
MATERIAL 1..1
HANDLING_UNITS 1..unbounded
HU_LABEL 1..1
HU_ITEM 1..1
LINENUMBER 1..1
In the target structure, I need to output each handling unit along with the corresponding DELIVERY_LINEITEM material. Target structure has been simplified below:
Target Sample
<DOCUMENT>
<ROW>
<PACKAGING>
<HU_LABEL>123</HU_LABEL>
</PACKAGING>
<PACKAGING_ITEM>
<LINENUMBER>10</LINENUMBER>

</DOCUMENT>
Target Structure
DOCUMENT 1..1
ROW 1..unbounded
PACKAGING 1...1
HU_LABEL 1..1
PACKAGING_ITEM 1..1
LINENUMBER 1..1
MATERIAL 1..1
Note, 1 ROW in the target structure = 1 HANDLING_UNITS from the source structure.
Can anyone help me to achieve this? I do not know how to map the relevant DELIVERY_LINEITEM\MATERIAL from the source structure to the target structure.

Issues with Query Caching in MII

Hi All,
I am facing a strange problem with Query caching in MII query. Have created one xacute query and set cache duration 30 sec. The associated BLS with the query retrieves data from SAP system. In the web page this value is populated by executing an iCommand. Followings are the steps I followed -
Query executed for first time, it retrives data from SAP correctly. Lets say value is val1
At 10th sec Value in SAP changed to val2 from val1.
Query excuted at 15th sec, it gives value as val1. Which is expected as it gives from cache.
Query is executed 1t 35th sec, it gives value as val2 retriving from SAP system. Which is correct.
Query executed at 40th sec, it gives value as val1 from cache. Which is not expected.
I have tried with java cache clear in browser and JCo cache of the server.
Same problem I have seen for tag query also..
MII Version - 12.0.6 Build(12)
Any thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Soumen

Soumen Mondal,
If you are facing this problem from the same client PC and in the same session, it's very strange.. but if there are two sessions running on the same PC this kind of issue may come..
Something about caching:
To decide whether to cache a query or not, consider the number of times you intend to run the query in a minute. For data changing in seconds, and queried in minutes, I would recommend not to cache query at all.
I may give a typical example for query caching in a query on material master cached for 24 hours, where we know that after creating material master, we are not creating a PO on the same day.

Issue with query output

hi there,
I have an issue with the display of hours 00:00:00 in the query output in BW.
The system assumes it as 0 or blank and therefore display it under unassigned hour.
I am using the reference of 0TIME for this hourly display.
When I checked the 0TIME i could not find the corresponding SID value for 00:00:00 hours.
Can anybody please advise what needs to be done?
Thanks in advance,
Kind regard,
Kate

Hi Kate,
I am experiencing the same problem as you: an InfoObject, created referencing 0TIME, represented in the BEX Query as "#" when the Value is "00:00:00".
How did you work it out?
The Formula Variable strategy is not applicable in this case because 0TIME is not a key figure !

Performance issue with Query

11g
Hi there experts,
I have an issue with performance with a simple SQL which I thought cannot be tuned but just wanted to check with the experts here. We are running a query to get a persons ID based on his logged in email address from a Parties table which is huge (Millions of records). The query takes about 30 seconds to return a value. Was wondering is there a way to optimize this
The query is
{code}
select par.party_id
from parties party, users users
where
lower(party.email_address) = lower(:USER_EMAIL)
and party.system_reference = to_char(users.person_id)
and users.active_flag ='Yes';
{code}
The emails are stored in upper and lower, hence the lower functions
IS creating a function based index the only way?

IIS Webgate losing connection to OAM server with query string in URI

Hi,
We have a Windows 2008 server with IIS 7/7.5 and the OAM 10.1.4.3 webgate installed on it, and are having a problem where it appears that during the processing of a request, the webgate is getting an ErrEngineDown (i.e., the webgate thinks that it's lost connection to the OAM server).
We have a number of similarly configured IIS servers + webgates that work fine, but this problem is only occurring on one of the IIS servers, AND it appears that this only happens when the URI being requested includes a query string.
When this happens, we see the following in the webgate oblog.log file:
2012/10/08@16:45:10.244000     3148     2928     CONN_MGMT     DEBUG1     0x00000201     ..\src\aaa_service_client.cpp:935     "Simulating engine down reply"
and:
2012/10/08@16:45:10.244000     3148     3220     WEB     TRACE     0x00000203     ..\src\iis_filt_info.cpp:554     "Function entered"     _TraceName^ObIISFiltPreprocHdrs::RedirectTo     redirectUrl^/access/oblix/apps/webgate/bin/webgate.dll?status%253D500%2520errmsg%253DErrEngineDown
and:
2012/10/08@16:45:10.244000     3148     3220     ACCESS_CLIENT     DEBUG3     0x00000201     ..\src\aaa_service_client.cpp:3359     "ObAAAServiceClient::DecNumActiveReferences"     _numActiveReferences^0     AAA Client Address^0x02139730
2012/10/08@16:45:10.244000     3148     3220     ACCESS_SDK     ERROR     0x00000501     ..\src\obuser_session.cpp:1564     "ObError exception caught"     raw_code^124
We've confirmed that the IIS server connectivity to the OAM server is fine.
When they test, they get the OAM FORM login page, then then enter the username and password, and then the browser shows an "Oracle Access Manager Operation Error" webpage (which probably corresponds to that "ErrEnginedown".
The puzzling thing is why this would happen but only if the URI includes a query string. Also, as I mentioned, we are only seeing this problem with one IIS server (+webgate).
We have an SR with Oracle, but that hasn't made much progress, so I was wondering if anyone has encountered something like this?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
It turned out that there were some application errors that were occurring and when those were fixed, this problem disappeared. We don't control the IIS application, so we're not 100% what the problems were.

FLVPlayback source with query strings (parameters) doesn't load

Flash version: CS4
AS version: AS3
I'm currently trying to use the FLVPlayback component and pass a source FLV that's living on a cloudfront webserver. The problem is that the cloudfront requires authentication in the form of query strings in the source FLV. For example:
import fl.video.*;
var mainMovie:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
mainMovie.source = "http://www.somedomainname.com/firmware.flv?dummyquery=22";
trace(addChild(mainMovie));
As soon as I take away the "dummyquery", it works fine. When I add a query string, it breaks (nothing loads).
Here is the error output I get:
[object FLVPlayback]
VideoError: 1005: Invalid xml: URL: "http://www.somedomainname.com/firmware.flv?dummyquery=22&FLVPlaybackVersion=2.1" No root node found; if url is for an flv it must have .flv extension and take no parameters
 at fl.video::SMILManager/http://www.adobe.com/2007/flash/flvplayback/internal::xmlLoadEventHandler()
 at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
 at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
 at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()
It adds on "&FLVPlaybackVersion=2.1" to the end.
I saw a different article that said I should add a dummy variable at the end like "&dummy=.flv" because I was told that Flash is basically looking for an .flv extension at the end and you can trick it, but it doesn't work because they add on additional code.
Does anyone know how to work around this?

Hey supervu,
I know you already found a workaround to make this work, just figured I'd post an alternative to editing the FLVPlayback compoent. I also am retrieving an FLV file via a .Net ASHX file. To keep both worlds happy, I used a URLRewriter module to translate for me... this one translates what I am using for the FLVPlayback component source:
http://domain.com/flv/22.flv to be resolved as http://domain.com/API/resource.ashx?ID=22
There is of course no flv folder in the root of my application...
Here is my very simple URLRewriter class in vb.net:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System
Imports System.Web
Public Class URLRewriter
 Implements IHttpModule
 Public Sub Init(ByVal inst As System.Web.HttpApplication) Implements System.Web.IHttpModule.Init
 AddHandler inst.BeginRequest, AddressOf Me.OnBeginRequest
 End Sub
 Public Sub OnBeginRequest(ByVal app As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
 Dim inst As HttpApplication = CType(app, HttpApplication)
 Dim req_path As String = inst.Context.Request.Path
 Dim trans_path As String = ""
 Dim search As String = "/flv/"
 Dim pos As Integer = req_path.IndexOf("/flv/")
 If pos > -1 Then
 Dim key as string = req_path.Substring(pos + search.Length, (req_path.LastIndexOf(".flv") - (pos + search.Length)))
 HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("~/API/resource.ashx?ID=" & key )
 End If
 End Sub
 Public Sub Dispose() Implements System.Web.IHttpModule.Dispose
 End Sub
End Class
and make sure you add this to your web.config.. this will cause URLRewriter to intercept all HTTP requests, and redirect as needed.
<system.web>
 <httpModules>
 <add name="URLRewriter" type="[Namespace].URLRewriter"/>
 </httpModules>
</system.web>
Hope this helps someone.
