Access to Portal/Portlet API

Hi,
Does anyone know/have experience with accessing Portlets from external systems (JAVA) ?
I would like to access the content (or application) inside a Portlet...
e.g. The Portal should host the Portlets and I would like to interact with the portlets.
-does an external API exist ?
-any problems signing on to the portal from an external system ?

Visual Studio 2005 crashes when referencing ALI 6.5 portal server API

Visual Studio 2005 crashes when referencing ALI 6.5 portal server API
We are building new portlets in .NET 2.0 to that access the ALI 6.5 server API and are experienceing the folowing scenario:
I create a brand new project in Visual Studio (2005 with SP1 on Win2k3 R2 SP2) using the ALI Portal Project template that is provided with the application accelerator 1.1. This portlet will need to perform portal server searches so I begin by adding references to the following assemblies from C:\bea\alui\ptportal\6.5\bin\assemblies:
openconfig.dll
opencounters.dll
opencache.dll
openhttp.dll
openssl.dll
opentempfile.dll
plumtreeserver.dll
ptportalobjects.dll
I then type in something like below to start up the portal server objects.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
IOKContext context = OKConfigFactory.createInstance("C:\\bea\\alui\\settings\\", "portal");
PortalObjectsFactory.Init(context);
this.Response.Write("Portal Objects Initiallized");
Some moments later Visual Studio will crash. It has happened before I have entered any code, after I have started typing code and on builds. It seems intermittent but usually occurs within a minute of interacting with this Visual Studio project. I actually managed to build once and have had success accessing this page in Explorer to validate the portal server objects are getting initialized and referenced correctly.
I thought this was a problem with my personal development environment. So I tried this on other machines: another Win2k3 ALI 6.5 dev portal server and another server with Visual Studio 2005 that I installed the 6.5 portal on just for testing this. The exact behavior listed above is occurring on three development machines here (crashing devenv.exe when portal references are made or loading a project with portal references). Since this does not seem to be isolated to a single development machine, is there any course of action that anyone would suggest to help solve this?
thanks,
Troy Rackley

It turns out that this is only a problem with Visual Studio using the ALI templates or creating any projects using the "New... Web site" functionality of 2005. I was a ble to create a C#... ASP.net Web Application project and add the references to the idk and the local portal server APIs manually without devenv.exe crashes.
So, the work around I have found if your projects needs to access both the portal server API and the remote API is to create the project with:
New... Project... Visual C#... ASP.NET Web Application
and NOT
New... Web Site... ASP.NET Web Site (or ALI Portlet Project)
Anyone know why this is the case?
Thanks.

How to access Sap portal login user in ejb web service

Hi,
I wnt to access SAP Portal login user in my ejb application which resides on the same server.
I am using following code
try {
     IUser user =null;                         IWDClientUser wdUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
                              user = wdUser.getSAPUser();

                              e.printStackTrace();
Some additional jar files are required for this?
The same code works fine with webDynpro but not with ejb.
Thanks in advance

Accessing multiple portals at the same time?

Is it possible to access multiple portals at the same time?
For example, what I want to achieve is different properties (layout,
portlets, look & feel) for different groups of users accessing the same
portal. The Associated Groups part on the Portal admin page is not
fulfilling our requirements. So we decided to have different portals for
different groups of users, all working through one portal, and accessing
their custom portals. Is this achievable?
What we are thinking is: put the common functionality in the repository
portal directory, and the custom portlets/jsps in the group-specific portal
directories. This way we can customize portal behavior for different groups
of users. Is this achievable?
Thanks.
Amit

You have to user respective DRILL commands present in WAD to configure the drill operations on multiple characteristics...

Support for Portlet API

Does the BEA Portal Server support portlets written
to the proposed Portlet API?
Specifically, I've played with Jetspeed before
and have some portlets for Jetspeed. How easy
is it to port those portlets to the Portal Server?
From what I've gone through so far with the Portal
Server 7 sampleportal site and looking through the
sample code, it seems to be very different from
what I'm used to in Jetspeed.
I would appreciate any pointers on documentations
geared more for developers. While the tutorials
are useful, they are a bit light on customization.
Lew

I doubt it since the Portlet API isn't finalized yet, so BEA's API (along
with others) is still very proprietary.
My best guess is that it won't be compliant untill one release version after
the spec has been completly finished and accepted. 1-2 years? And that is
if BEA decides to conform to the spec at all.

Granting Access in custom portlets

Hi,
I'm deploing some portlets using PLSQL. Those portlets work's fine. Now i want to grant restricted access to this portlets. The best i can do is function is_runnable return false to users that i don't want to show my portlet.
Example:
if wwctx_api.get_userid!= 'PORTAL30' then return false;
else return true;
end if;
Can i use portal funcionality of grant access to, by example applications components or pages or content areas to restric access to my portlets ?
Thanks
Pedro Ribeiro

I realize that this is an old thread, but on the chance there are others like me looking into how to restrict access to custom porlets, I thought I would venture a reply.
I looked at the current online docs for for Portal Security Services. If you have a need to get down in the weeds these docs will show you what you need to know. But there is a very SIMPLE way to restrict access to your new portlet.
After you have your new PL/SQL or JAVA porlet in place, just create a new Portal Page using the wizard. Make it a plain page, no banner. Add your custom portlet to the new page. Then PUBLISH THIS NEW PAGE AS A PORTLET. Instead of adding your original portlet to other pages, add this "wrapper page" instead. You can use the grant access tab for the wrapper page to restrict access of the portlet to specific users and groups.

How to restrict access to portal based on entitlements.

Hi,
I am working on weblogic 8.1 portal project. i want to restrict the user to access
the portal based on the entitlements. However when user try to login he is seeing
Weblogic Error 403 forbidden page. How to display custom error page, instead of
weblogic default error page.
How to programatically check whether user has access to portal or not based on
entitlements.
Please give me code.
regards,
-chada-

Chada,
The 403 is by design. If you want to place a page in front of one or more
portal desktops and only show links to desktops the current user is entitled
to, review the attachment.

Can't access to Portal Admin Console.

Hi all,
I'm working with WLP 10.2. I've created the ear-file (using maven) and deployed it on server (with Unix-system). The current application works well.
My current task is a creation portal in streaming mode. Unfortunately I can't access to Portal Admin console for resolving task. I always retrieve "Error 404 (Not found)".
As I know the admin-tools.war is responsible for Portal Admin Console. I've checked admin-tools.war is running on server (with status "Active").
I'm using the next path for running Portal Admin Console: {serverhost:port}/{context root of admin-tools}/portal.portal.
Maybe, Should I set up(correct) application.xml or weblogic.xml?
Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks,
Yuriy

I think your URL is wrong, try with the following...
http://{server:port}/{name_your_ear}Admin/portal.portal
name_your_ear= The name of your Enterprise Application.
For example,
http://localhost:7001/DemosEarAdmin/portal.portal
I hope this helps

Internet Access to Portal located in DMZ

I've seen questions on the forum regarding gaing Internet access to the Oracle Portal located in the DMZ. This answer does not resolve the issue of having multple DADs to access your portal like abc.com and xyz.com. For that see note:162044.1 on metalink. http://metalink.oracle.com.
If you registered a domain name e.g. abc.com and have the portal up and running in the DMZ. Your local network should be accessing the portal just fine. Your computer name for example is portal. The URL translates into http://portal.abc.com. You opened the ports in the DMZ to allow access and wonder why you get partial portal pages, no login, etc. It's becase users can't resolve the DNS entry for portal.abc.com. Call your ISP and get an "A Record" entry. After a few hours and propogation of the A Record, users on the Internet can successfuly access your site. This A Record should be free.
Good luck
Kellan

Hi,
You've to open the ITS for internet for accessing things from Portal too. As I've told you in previous post, the request goes directly to ITS server (http://itsserver.com/scripts..) and not as (http://myportal.com/scripts..). The idea of having it via Portal will be to mask the URL of ITS , which will not be visible (except for time you click on iview which will display in status bar). In any case, you can directly acces ITS as what you've told, however you give the proxy.

Siva

But I check in the Windows registry, I find that NLS_LANG is FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8MSWIN1252 under under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/HOME1 and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/HOME2. Then I correct in FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8ISO8859P15 in the Windows registry.
Also I check in EM web_site in

All that I do is not useful for access the portal home page, thers is always the error java.io.IOException: Unsupported character encoding: "ISO-8859-15"
I dont have problem in language English. My page portal is running well in a another machine where I install Oracle9iAS in English, but I have always problem in the machine where I install Oracle9iAS in French.
I find there are lots of this problem in this forum, but there isnt a answer. So thanks for anyone to resolve this problem.

Hello Michael,
Thanks for your help !
I think that the problem is in the PlsqlNLSLanguage. But I couldnt check it now with the version French WE8ISO8859P15, because today Ive installed oracle902 AS with WE8MSWIN1252 and it functions well. I find the PlsqlNLSLanguage in my $ORACLE_HOME_INFRA/Apache/mod_plsql/conf/dads.conf is FRENCH_FRANCE.WE8MSWIN1252
, and in my $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/mod_plsql/conf/dads.conf is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252. But I dont understand why it doesnt create the languages problem.
I will try again in another machine with WE8ISO8859P15.

Not able to access the portal on the network - (RedHat Enterprise Linux 5).

Friends,
I have installed the portal(7.1) on a linux(RHEL 5) box.I am able to access the portal locally and everything looks fine.
However when I try accessing the portal on the network...I get "page cannot be displayed" as if the server is not listning on 8080.
when I do "GET http://rexportal.davita.corp:8080" I get ........
500 Can't connect to rexportal.davita.corp:8080 (connect: No route to host)
what does this mean?
other info:
1) I have disbaled the firewall by setting SELinux to disabled.
2)I am able to traceroute to the m/c
3) can ftp and SSH
4) When I do "GET http://rexportal.davita.corp" I see a apache server page.It means apache server is accessible at port 80 on the network.
Can you plz help me resolve this issue.what can prevent my server not being accesible across the network
Thanks!!
Deepak.

I was able to resolve this.! basically It was a firewall issue.
To help othere here is what I found.
I had disabled the SELinux utility which should have basically disabled the firewall service but It didnt stop it.
You can check If the firewall is running with following command on redhat linux.
service iptables status
If it is enabled ,you can either stop it by
/etc/init.d/iptables stop (not recommended -- for security)
or
you can add a entry for the port you want to enable by modifying the file
/etc/sysconfig/iptables
Hope it might be helpful !
Thanks,
Deepak.

Use ip address to access the portal

If there any way to access a portal through ip address instead of fully qualified domain name. I need to access the portal in my office through an external ip address in a router. The port forewarding force an ip address even I define a hostname for my router.

Hi Wing ,
yes you can , but some pieces of the portal depend on full hostname resolution ( for domain security) . So Single Sign On to backends will not work properly (if at all) plus Javascript will act funnily in your browser (depending on the settings ).
Also you need to make sure any content in an Iview that is displayed in an Iframe is domain-name resolvable to your browser (e.g. other non-portal hosts ) .
Much better to go through a Reverse Proxy in the DMZ ..see various posts in the Implementation forum .

Daniel
