Hi Sumangala,
Thanks for reply, You are talking about Enterprise Portal, the CE Environment is different we don't have options for browse deployment, compulsory we have to take from the server itself.
The files in server is also different
In EP we can find masthead in this location - /usr/sap/<SID>/J<Instance number>/j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root/web-inf/deployment/pcd
but,
In CE the structure is different we cannot find the exact path as above.
I searched files there but i got lot of files on masthead and i confused which file i have to use.

Pradeep Kumar

Why is the PAR file located in portalapps, pcd and temp folders???

Hi all - I downloaded the com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak file to make changes to the logon page. I renamed the PAR file after it was downloaded, made my changes, and exported back into the portal. Everything is fine....I just have a question in terms of what the difference is between what appears to be 3 locations where this file is located. First, it appears that the file I exported is now located at:
ROOT/WEB-INF/portal/portalapps (timestamp 10:25:22 AM)
However, there are backup versions (.bak) located in the following locations;
ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/pcd (timestamp 10:24:46 AM)
ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/temp (timestamp 10:25:06 AM)
It appears as though the file is loaded into pcd, then to temp, and then to portalapps? What exactly is it doing, and why are there 2 backup files?
Regards,
Steve

I understand the problem. Here are some ideas:
1) Permission repair only affects files in the system, userfiles are ignored.
2) For large file transfer, you must be hardwired. Wi-Fi is insufficient for transferring large files.
3) When copying Mac files to a Windows filesystem, illegal characters in a filename will cause the operation to stop without any informational error message. In any case, copying large files to a Windows machine is not very reliable. I recommend Mac-formatted network storage.
4) When attempting to mount a nonexistent network disk, Finder stalls with a 5 minute timeout. The solution is to add a "Quit Finder" menu item to the Finder icon in the Dock.
5) If the machine uses a dynamic localnet address, Finder is unable to locate an aliased network disk that has changed. You need to mount the disk with the "Connect to Server" dialog first to fix the aliase(s). A DNS setup may help to locate machines by hostname rather than IP address.
6) Switches are problematic. If you are using switches rather than routers you may be seeing congestion on machines connected to the switch.
7) I highly recommend rsync triggered by a cronjob running in the wee hours of the morning. rsync is robust and persistent in file copying.

Portal runtime error after modifying masthead par file

Hi experts,
i tried to upload com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par in the portal (productive system) after modifying tooltip text of u201CHelpu201D link. i used Archive uploader.
After upload, status messages are correct.
But now in the masthead area, i have red message :
"Portal runtime error"
"An exception occurred while processing your request"
I cannot also access the Browse Deploymentu2026
So now i cannot log off from the portal (except by restart computer)
In development system where I used the same procedure, everything is OK.
Please help!

Dev,
Please ensure that the changes are correct by to upload the orignial par.
The other way of modifying the par is as below,
*Upload the PAR into NWDS and add the jars htmlb.jar, com.sap.portal.htmlb_api.jar and servlet.jar through java build path of your par project and add the jar com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead_core.jar (you can get this by extracting your par and navigate to the folder PORTAL-INF -> lib) in PORTAL-INF -> lib folder of your project.
Make changes
Build project
Export into portal

Masthead par file issue

Hello,
We are facing one issue with masthead, one of our developer wrongly deployed incorrect masthead.Becuase of this masthead got corrupted, we are getting runtime errors.we have replaced original masthead , restarted portal, still problem exist, are we missing any thing?
Thank you for help
Regards,
Veera.

The the masthead which is actually getting pointed...
It might be that you are uploading a file which is not getting pointed by portal framework page.
Probably you must be using pcd:portal_content/every_user/general/frameworkpage as framework page...if not customized...
In this framework page you will find actual masthead iview that is being used....
Preview it from there.....and if not working then check the property "Code Link"...there you will find the actual par file name...
Upload this par file and again try to preview it from there only.........
If still it does not work then paste the exception here.....

Hi Vijay,
first, welcome on SDN!
About your question: It is quite critical to use some PAR of somebody else. You didn't give your version (SP / Patch Level), and deploying a masthead of a different version may end up in serious trouble, especially if you didn't backup your original version (which you have not, for you say you have no access...).
If
> My work is to import the masthead.par file to eclipse
then you should be provided with the PAR of have access to it. It is to be found on the server under .../WEB-INF/deployment/temp.
If you don't have physical access to the server, you may also get it through the portal: System Administration - Support - Support Desk - Portal Runtime - Browse Deployment - [browse to the path given above, download the PAR]. Please have in mind that you're downloading a ZIP, from which you first will have to extract the PAR.
Hope it helps
Detlev

Portal masthead messed up - par file needed

Hi
I recently performed a transport of the masthead from
NW7.0 EP SPS13 to NW 7.0 EP SPS14
I was careless enough to have overridden the original com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead on the target system.
Apparently the transport messed up the masthead and now my logoff link would give me a javascript error.
can someone provide me the original SPS14 masthead par file or suggest another solution to fix this.

Hi,
send me an email to [email protected] so i can send you the par file you need

What is the name of PAR file for SAP logo?

We want to know the exact name for the PAR file for the SAP logo at the upper
right conner of the EP, and the PAR file for the picture before the SAP logo.
We know it is in the pcd directory but there are too many.
Points guaranteed. Thanks!

Hi Jennifer,
That par file name is "com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par.bak".
It is available at System Administration>Support>Portal Runtime>Browse and Deployments>ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/pcd.
If u download that file to ur NWDS u can see the logo icon and pictures used inside the image folder presents in dist folder.
In the coding part they have used the url to this pictures and logos.
Note:
While downloading that file from pcd save it with the extension .par remove that .bak from the name.and import that par file to ur NWDS.

Tamil K

Can't See com.sap.portal.runtime.logon in list of PAR Files in Iview Wizard

Hello All,
I am trying to create an iview from PAR file com.sap.portal.runtime.logon which is the logon par file that has the logon page. But when I right click a folder in the PCD and click on New From PAR Iview I try to find on the list of available par files and I don't find the one named com.sap.portal.runtime.logon
Can anyone tell me if this has to do with the portalapp.xml file from com.sap.porta.runtime.logon.par file.? or with the Security Zones defined in portalapp.xml? Or does someone know why this PAR file doesn't appear on the list and how can I make it appear on this list of par files?
Any helpful ideas to solve this issue will give rewarding points.

Hello,
What I want to do is to put the logon page in the light framework page so that the users can login from the anonymous portal. After I customize the logon page I want to create aniview in the detailed navigation.
If you want to see the jsp files that the com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par file you have to go to the file system and copy the .par.bak file , rename it to .zip and all the files are there.
But my question is if this is a par file that is deployed in the portal , why I cant create an iview from this par file? From other forums I have read they say that creating an iview from this par file it will put the logon page where you want. But when I try to create an iview from PAR File the com.sap.portal.runtime.logon doesn't appear in the list of available par files.
Please help me on this and will give rewarding points.
Thanks

Error while importing logon par file

Hi
I have to do logon page customisation for that i have taken com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak file from basis team and i saved it to my desktop .Now i have renamed it to com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par and trying to import to my NWDS.
So i opend EP perspective file->import->browsed the par file in place of Archive file name when i click on finish it is showing the error "invalid END header(bad central directory offset).
"The plugin com.sap.portal.plugins.config-archiver"caused an exception during the unpack operation.see log for more details"
Can anybody please let me know the reason for this error .
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
After renaming com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak to com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par. Try opening the file with winrar/winzip to see if you have a right par file structure. On some portal versions, when you open com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par file, you have again a com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par file inside it.
So if you find com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par file inside com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par. Then just extract it again and try importing it into NWDS.
Please refer to [link|NWDS Log - PAR import error;
Hope this helps!!
Thanks & Regards
