ActionURL tag

hi All,
I have used the following piece of code <form action="<portlet:actionURL windowState="maximized" portletMode="edit" />">. when i submit the form i get the message in by browser. An error has occuredNo portlet included in url. Can somebody tell me what am i doing wrong

That cant be the case unless those values are there somehow in your actionUrl.
Do a view source on the browser when you navigate to the page and see what the form code is. if the form correctly has POST, there is no way that input elements in the form appear in the url (only the action will). In addition that is the browsers responsibility , not portal. perhaps there is a typo or something or your submit (which is not shown) is overriding the method to be get

    I am experiencing the exact same conditions.  Looking at the access.log on WLS shows -
         "GET /WCWikiBlog/portlet/WCWikis/mode/ HTTP/1.1 500 1935".
    The line in the stack trace -
         "at com.plumtree.portlet.servlet.BaseServlet.getPortletMode(BaseServlet.java:173)"
    suggests that there should be an additional path descriptor specified as "edit/view/help" appended to the GET string.
    One of the gatewayed URL's that may correspond to the GET string above shows -
         "/WCWikiBlog/pt_action?javax.portlet.PT_PORTLET_NAME_KEY=WCWikis&javax.portlet.mode=view&wiki_page=Documentation"
    This appears to specify the portlet mode quite plainly.  And, I can't request the pt_action directly because it complains about not being gatewayed.  Also, pt_action maps to a plumtree ActionServlet, so I can't see the code.  Is there a parameter "name" that is incorrect?
    We are using ALUI 6.5 MP1.  Any possible compatibility issues?
    thanks,
    Mike

  • JSR 168 support and portlet taglib

    I could not find support for the ActionURL tag in the JSR 168 release for 8.1.
    Are these tags available? If so, where can I find them?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Chris,
    You can obtain an instance of renderRequest from the http request as in:
    <%
    RenderRequest renderRequest = (RenderRequest)
    request.getAttribute("javax.portlet.request");
    %>
    Alternatively, if you've JSP base class set to
    com.bea.portlet.jsp.PortletJspBase in your weblogic.xml (see WLS docs on
    how to set a default base class for JSPs), all JSPs in your webapp can
    automatically access renderRequest, renderResponse and portletConfig
    variables directly, as in
    <%
    renderResponse.createActionURL(...);
    %>

  • Creative Mediasource ID3 Tags - Edit more than one year at a ti

    I use a 60gb Zen Xtra with Mediasource. I take pride in the ID3 tags of all my files especially those of my Jazz collection and my player is well organised. The only thing I have to ask is - is there any way of editing the year of, say, an entire album that was recorded in 959 for example all at the same time. It lets me do this for Artist, Album and Genre but not year. Is there any upgrade in software I can get or am I just missing something here?
    Thanks in advance for your input,Matt

    Shucks, I tried and you can't seem to do it. A curious oversight.
    You can either use another copying program like which will let you do it, or simply get a mass tagger (but you will need to edit the tracks on the PC first, then copy). For some mass tagger recommendations look here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

  • How can I get all music "tags" to transfer when transferring an iTunes library?

    OK, here's my situation:  I have accumulated about 250GB of music on iTunes on a laptop running Windows 7.  The hard drive was running out of room, and I wanted to upgrade computers.  So I bought a Mac Book with 1TB of hard drive space.
    To transfer my library (which includes about equal parts iTunes purchases and imported CDs), I copied the entire iTunes folder onto an external hard drive, and then used the "add folder" function on iTunes to add the entire library to my new computer.  I knew I would lose all data such as last played, most played, etc.  And I knew from past experience that merely transferring the iTunes folder, including the iTunes library file, to the new computer hard drive (without using the "add folder to library" function) would not mean that the new computer would automatically behave as if the exact same library from the old computer was on the new computer.  I hope I am explaining this right.
    My problem/question is: many of the music files came over without some of the tags that were on the files in the old computer.  This happened with respect to some, but not all, of the imported CD files.  (I had used the MP3 format when I ripped these.)  The song titles are still there, but many of the tracks say "unknown album" for that artist or, worse, just say "unknown album" AND "unknown artist."  Because I have accumulated so much music over the years, it would take me quite a while to re-tag all he music files with all the missing info.   Again, I'm lucky to have the files, and my iPods containing the music have not yet been synced to the new computer, so I could just manually check what I had on the old iPods and re-add/re-tag the files that were problems.  I  know having such a large folder could itself be the problem.  But adding folders to the computer one at a time does not seem to help, as the "unknown" issue keeps happening even then.
    So my conclusions are that one of the following has happened:  either there is another way to import a large library that I should try (Apple migration assistant, maybe?), or I somehow made the transfer from the old computer onto the external hard drive in the wrong way and I'm stuck with things as they are (which would not be terrible, just inconvenient) or there is some limitation in the software of music services that results in many "unknowns" showing up.  These were not obscure records, and iTunes/Gracenote recognized 99% of them just fine when I imported them, but I remember from using Windows Media Player that it was pretty hit-or-miss at times in terms of the right tags being assigned to songs.
    Yes, I probably have spent way too much time over the years on my music.  But if there is something I can learn from this, I'd be happy to hear about it, either to fix things easily now or the next time I transfer music.  (Again, all the files had all the correct tags on my old computer, before I copied them.)  I thank anyone who replies very much, in advance!

    Just to update: the solution above works.  I had tried to "import" all my files into the new computer rather than just copying and pasting the old iTunes folder into the new computer.  This second, easier, solution is much, much better than re-importing all the songs.  Seems like those little files included in an existing iTunes folder are very, very important!  Without them, I would have had hundreds and hundreds of "unknown" files to re-tag.  As it was, when I copied and pasted the existing iTunes folder into the new computer and opened iTunes, all the files were there, complete with all the date added/date played/number of plays/etc. information from my old computer.  (For some reason, this didn't work when I transferred from PC to PC, but that was several years ago and not a transfer to a Mac.)  I did seem to lose album artwork for a number of albums I had imported rather than purchased, and there was other cleanup to do on a small percentage of files.  But that was a vry small amount of work compared to re-tagging from scratch.  Thanks again for your help.

  • How to set text resources avoiding automatic page update with c:set tag

    Hello everyone,
    I'm developing my web application with JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 in order to support two language locales (en and de). Following this guide I've performed the following steps:
    Creation of two property files (Resources.properties and Resources_de.properties) with the key-value entries;
    Modify of faces-config.xml file adding these lines:
    <locale-config>
            <default-locale>en</default-locale>
            <supported-locale>de</supported-locale>
      </locale-config>
      <resource-bundle>
          <base-name>view.Resources</base-name>
          <var>res</var>
       </resource-bundle>
    In the project properties > Resources Bundle I've checked:
    Automatically Synchronize Bundle;
    Warn about Hard-coed Translatable Strings;
    Always Prompt for Description.
    In the same place I've set the default project bundle name to view.Resources.
    In a test JSP page I've a outputText with the value #{res['HELLOWORLD']} where HELLOWORLD is the key in the property files. All works fine, and the correct string is shown based on locale browser settings.
    Anyway, when I use the "Select Text Resources..." menu in any text value choosing a value from the default property file, JDev automatically adds the following tag:
    <c:set var="customuiBundle" value="#{adfBundle['view.ViewControllerBundle']}"/>
    setting the value of the text in #{ViewControllerBundle.HELLOWORLD}.
    There is a way to avoid this behavior? Can I manage the resources in a different way? I would to choose a value from the list in order to get the res.KEY value instead of ViewControllerBundle.KEY value.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Manuel

    don't select from menu - go to source and write it . The problem with the tools is they have a certain way of doing things and don't think we should spend time customizing jdeveloper rather concentrate on the work in hand.

  • How can I display selected tags across multiple e-mail addresses?

    I receive email on a specific topic but via several e-mail addresses. How can I view selected tags where the resulting e-mails span several (7) email addresses. They are all active on my Thunderbird, but as far as I know, I can only display the selected tag on one of them at a time.
    Any assistance greatly appreciated as this is a very big problem for me.
    thanks, Ron75

    This solution does not appear to work across multiple e-mail addresses.
    Perhaps I should have said "work across multiple e-mail address at the same time. I get e-mail on specific topics via several email addresses and wish to view all the tagged emails regardless of which email account in which they reside.
    I could not get this solution to select more than one email account at a time.

  • How do I add multiple scripts from search engines to my meta tag properties?

    I currently have copied the goolge script for website varification and analytics, etc and pasted it into my meta tag properties dialog box. There is no problem as far as Google varifying the page. However, I would like to copy Bing's search engine script into my meta tag in addition to Googles script. How do I go about doing this? Do I hit the return on my keyboard under the ending of Googles script, then paste in the Bing script?
    The the last part of the Google script ending in this:
    </script>
    (paste new script from Bing here?)
    Will this cancel out each other and cause problems?
    Can someone walk me through this process, because Bing's search engine will not varify my site through two of the three other methods.
    Ben

    Adding a script after the closure of previous script is the way to go i.e. right after the </script> tag.
    So it should look something like below:
    <script>
    Google's script
    </script>
    <script>
    Bing's script
    </script>
    Cannot comment on one interfering with the other since it really depends on what exact code is there in the scripts. Google and Bing help resources will be able to help more with this.
    Thanks,

  • Archiving cds and why do i need id3 tags

    here comes another one of those questions looking at which codec to use to store music.....i also have tag questions.....
    i'm about to (re-)rip my cd collection and looking at some info re codecs and id3 tags
    now.....i believe i understand the benefits of alac (lower file sizes, keeping id3 tags, lossless compression) v wav(no compression)
    however (and for some out there) if we just entertain the fact that wav may have some minute benefit for me depending on my questions and answers given.....and yes i know wav and alac will sound the same to the human ear - i accept that as a given of lossless compression ......
    points i'd like to outline:
    i am looking to rip my cds, firstly and mostly, for an archiving purpose!! purpose numero uno!!
    i could well want to re-create cds with these archived records in the future
    size of files is of no concern to me at all
    i'm using a mac nowadays
    i will convert most of these files, where needed, to use with a portable music player (i'm not bothered with having, say a wav file and then also converting and having an alac file, as crazy as that sounds)
    this is where i ask for info re the benefits of embedded tags that are found in alac:
    are these tags that important?
    where do they come into play in ripping and later converting music?
    are these uses just bells and whistles that have no benefit to my needs?
    if i rip cds to wav (or aiff), say, using itunes, will cd info and track listings be available on the downloading database (eg itunes) to name these wav files?
    if i then ensure these song files are kept under the album's folder, have i just done what tags do? surely not. that is all i have needed in the past.
    this is where i feel i may be really missing what id tags (can) do
    are tags more than just managing song files and where they belong and where they have come from?
    is it just a convenience of not personally managing your song files (as per previous paragraph)?
    (in the past i had ripped cds to mp3 codec. i think i used "cd rip" or something like that on my pc.
    my mp3 files were individually named and sorted and kept under album folders under artist name folders.
    apart form the very odd occasion all track and album info i needed was found on a database that was attached to the ripping software.
    i never had a problem managing/maintaining these files and folders.)
    i welcome some enlightenment on some of my questions above and other info that may be relevant
    and yes, i understand that music will sound the same as a wav file or alac file - but humour me re using wav and tell me why i need id3 tags
    i guess the crux of it is:
    why do i need id3 tags?
    does my managing of my song file in the album folder do what tags do?
    what problems/shortcomings/headaches may i encounter by not having those tags if i use wav as opposed to alac?
    what do i not know about these little buggers?
    what codec is best for my purpose of archiving and re creating of cds (for playing in cd players)
    thanks in advance for your input and any clarity that i may experience through this

    Crows2012 wrote:
    as mentioned earlier if i just have songs (wav) in album folders, when i import these albums into itunes, do you know if these will come up under AN album with their file names purely using my filename setup (but with no artwork)?
    Yes, iTunes will read the filename, such as "Track 1" or something else and display it. But nothing else. No Album or Artist.
    so the tracks will remain grouped as an album based on their initial folder and the albums and tracks as per file name?
    Crows2012 wrote:
    also, does aiff have limitations (apart from the full size of the file)?
    I'm not sure I understand what you mean. For all practical purposes AIFF and WAV are exactly the same thing. They're just file containers.
    i thought that i had read somewhere that aiff tags could run into some issues with its tags - ie may not always be transferred 100% accurately with certain players (or hardware maybe)
    Crows2012 wrote:
    and how do these codecs work re-creating an album for the purposes of playing in a cd player? - this is a crucial question for the purpose of my archiving/backup of CDs THEMSELVES
    That's actually going to depend on what burning software you use. Once you rip the tracks to whatever file container you choose (WAV/AIFF/ALAC) you'll never really exactly re-create the album. But for archiving purposes all three file containers will do what you want, which is to create a lossless archive. AIFF has the advantage of supporting embedded ID3, which ALAC has the additional advantage of the files also being about half the size of AIFF/WAV files.
    i was thinking that maybe wav was able to recreate an album (in effect duplicate one) if my cd was lost or damaged in the future. i was thinking this IF when ripping to wav everything is unchanged (unless there is other data on the original cd). and maybe only possible with wav. the purpose for this would be to play recreated cds on my cd player
    any idea on this one?
    (i havent looked too thoroughly on this angle but i'll keep googling on this one)
    much appreciate all info thus far

  • My iTunes library and metadata/ID3 tags issue

    Since 2010, iTunes is the only media player I use to play music. My library consists of music purchased from the iTunes Store, CD rips and stuff many artists these days release as freebies on the internet to promote a new album. Also, M4A and MP3 are the only formats I use so far.
    Since iTunes, I really got into editing my library's metadata tags by hand, in order to create a custom archive which serves my preferences best. I should mention that besides iTunes being the only software I use to play my music library, it's also the only software I use to edit their metadata. Also, before iTunes – when my library was on different media players – I never bothered with editing them.
    A few days ago, I found how a lot of people in forums complain about the way iTunes edits and stores metadata. So, I experimented and moved a few of my songs to other media players after editing their tags within iTunes. And indeed the tags and/or artwork were often displayed messed up and/or incorrect, some times partially and some times completely.
    Some people were referring to the version of the ID3 tags being the issue, while others suggested using the "convert ID3 tags" feature. I myself am a little bit confused. "Converting the ID3 tags" wasn't available for my M4A files and once I performed it for my MP3's I didn't know which setting I should apply or what version to choose. I chose one version randomly but I'm not sure what happened.
    My goal is to make my music library able to play and display my custom metadata on the majority of the popular media players. I hope that firstly this is possible and that secondly it won't be a solution which requires me going through every single song individually.
    I really hope that all those years work on my library wasn't for nothing.
    I'm using a MacBook running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my iTunes version is 10.7
    While my music library is more important that my iTunes version, I do like iTunes 10 more than 11.
    I apologize for any grammar mistakes, since English is not my first language. Thank you all for your time and any suggestion is welcome.

    Hello turingtest2 and thank you for your reply.
    In response to "a possible cause of problems is multiple embedded tags", what exactly does that mean and how can I avoid doing it in the future?
    Anything ripped with iTunes should get a single tag. If multiple tags in some of your older mp3 rips are the cause of the problems when you try to access the files elsewhere then you should apply the suggested remedy selectively, not to the whole library indiscriminately. Once fixed you shouldn't have the problem again unless you use different ripping software. If so check the options to ensure you generate a single ID3v2.3 tag. Downloads from elsewhere are pot luck.
    If I use Convert ID3 Tags>None before converting to v2.3 as you suggested, how many times is "several times" and why do I have to do it more than once? Also, what are your thoughts on 'v2.3 vs. v2.4'?
    Several is at least two, but more could be needed if a file has both v1 and v2 tags in multiple languages. If there are two tags, the first conversion to none should remove the first one, and the second conversion the second. Experiment, And stick to v2.3.
    In response to "the process removes any embedded art but otherwise preserves the data that iTunes knows". All fields excluding cover art remain the same? Does that mean that I will have to start from scratch and apply new cover art individually for each album? That would be too time consuming given the fact that I embed custom art.
    Yes, everything but artwork is held in the iTunes database and is restored with the final Convert ID3 Tags... v2.3. Use Doug's scripts SaveAlbumArtJpeg before you start and RestoreArtworkFromAlbumFolder afterwards to save and the restore your existing artwork.
    Also, what happens with my M4A files' metadata? ID3 tags are only used for MP3's, right?
    Yes, m4a/aac files have a different tag mechanism. Multiple ID3 tags is just one possible issue that you might have. You said:
    So, I experimented and moved a few of my songs to other media players after editing their tags within iTunes. And indeed the tags and/or artwork were often displayed messed up and/or incorrect, some times partially and some times completely.
    It might be worth going into some more detail about exactly what differences you noticed. iTunes can automatically associate (instead of embedding) artwork when it can match the album in the store which could be why some tracks didn't get artwork.

  • Bad bug with ID3 tags of different case for same artist

    My itunes files and music library are on a different drive than my boot drive. It is an internal drive (always on) in my Mac Pro at /Volumes/Media1/iTunes with music library at /Volumes/Media1/iTunes/iTunes Music. iTunes is setup to automatically keep it organized and copy files to the media folder when adding. It has been this way for years, never a problem.
    Just recently, and I think this may have coincided (but I'm not sure) with a 10.6.5 Snow Leopard update, my music started disappearing! The entries were still in the library, but with the missing exclamation mark in itunes with it reporting that it couldn't find the files. But only certain artists. After searching my computer, I found the missing files it at the same path, but on my boot drive, at /Media1/iTunes/iTunes Music/<missing artist>!
    Trying to add these files back to my library would work briefly, but then they would magically disappear out of /Volumes/Media1/iTunes/iTunes Music and go back to /Media1/iTunes/iTunes Music/
    I figured out the one thing the different artists that had this behavior had in common - some of the ID3 tags for the same artist, which are the basis for organization, were in different cases. I think there is a weird case sensitivity bug that is breaking things. When I add back only those songs for an artist with ID3 tags for the artist of the same case, the behaviour stops.
    I'm posting less looking for an answer and more to raise visibility and hope this gets a fix.
    Example entries from my iTunes Library.xml, notice how the 'k' in OutKast is a different case in the entries.
    <key>Artist</key><string>OutKast</string>
    <key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/Media1/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/OutKast/Speakerboxxx,%20Th e%20Love%20Below%20(Disc%202)/13%20Pink%20&%20Blue.mp3</string>
    <key>Artist</key><string>Outkast</string>
    <key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/Media1/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/Outkast/Aquemini/12%20Spot tieOttieDopaliscious.mp3</string>

    I'd like to note that I'm experiencing the exact same issue. I'd add to this but petegas4life has it spot on. I'm just replying in hopes this thread gets noticed so the engineers at apple can look into this and hopefully fix it in the next release.
    Reproducing the problem is pretty simple too. Just take one song from an album and change the case of the artist name. You'll see the music move to the boot drive and all of the songs from that artist won't work in itunes anymore. And if you're relying on iTunes to edit the tags, fixing the files is a PAIN because they keep disappearing on you.

  • ITunes 11 Changing ID3 Tags

    Ok, I've been using iTunes for years and like many I've found the new version, 11, to be frustrating.
    The main thing is ID3 Tags.
    These have always been customiseable. For someone OCD like me, being able to edit and customise ID3 tags is very important in keeping my iTunes "tidy". I don't want one album saying "Florence + The Machine" and another saying "Florence & The Machine". I want them both the same.
    But what I really want, more than anything else, is 100% control over what the ID3 tags say. On all the old versions of iTunes, I had this. Now, I don't.
    I've just listened to two albums by Dead Prez. They're stylised thus: 'dead prez'. So, it is that version which I've always had on my iTunes. However, after listening to one of the albums, iTunes decided to change the name back to 'Dead Prez'. This was nothing to do with me. Why has it changed?
    Worse, I've just listened to a song by David Gray, and I've now found it stored under U - for Unknown. It's not 'Unknown', because I've known for all the years that I've owned that file that the song was by David Gray. I haven't had to edit the information for years.
    Is this a bug?
    Is this a new feature of iTunes? Can I turn it off? If not, can Apple/ someone provide me with an explanation as to WHY this has changed?
    Cheers,
    Guy

    In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Store and turn off
    Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
    Share details about your library with Apple
    On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
    Show All Music
    Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

  • Question about id3 tags

    i had all of the fields of all my songs just how i liked them. i thought itunes had written everything i had edited into the id3 tags of all the songs. apparently, it didn't work.
    i am using another software called serato. i took the mp3's whose tags i edited in itunes and imported them into serato. i know this program is able to read all versions of tags, so i found a suggestion someone made to strip the id3 tags. this process called for selecting all the songs, converting the id3 tags to "none", then changing them back to a certain version (v2.3 or v2.4).
    after doing this, i take a look at my itunes library and about 80% of all my songs have their tags messed up. either the genre is back to what it was before i changed it a while ago, or (more annoyingly) the song titles are all truncated to a certain length.
    1. is there any way to undo this? or am i going to have to manually go back and re-edit all the fields?
    2. is there a better way of ensuring itunes is correctly changing the id3 tag fields? for example. if i edit the id3 tags on itunes on one profile on my mac, then take the same mp3 file and import it into itunes on another profile, the id3 tags seem to not have been changed at all.
    help anyone? this whole thing has got me really frustrated. thanks in advance.

    In Serato setup, check box Read iTunes Library. However this doesn't solve the problem, only creates yet another location for cleaning up....
    Having somewhat same issue: Converted all id3 from iTunes succesfully, but couldn't import files correct on other macbook in iTunes (same version)?!?!? Doesn't read id3...
