Collaboration Room - Edit Locally Cache Issue

Hello,
We have a situation where 2 users try to edit word file locally. For one user (A) everything works fine. The changes are uploaded and can be seen after Check In is done. For the other user (B), the changes are visible when he clicks on the file, but if he tries to edit the file again, it does not show the changes. If the user (B) logs off and closes the browser, and then logs back in, he can see his changes if he tries to edit the file. If the user (B) logs in through user (A) machine everything works as it should.
We compared browser setting for both users and they are identical. We especially compared cache setting, but it is the same. There seems to be PC/browser setting somewhere, but I can not figure out what it is. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
we have the some problem. The problem is even reproducible with one user. We reported that bug to SAP.
This is our way to reproduce the problem:
01. open IE
02. point it to http://HOSTNAME:PORT/irj/go/km/navigation/documents/FOLDER
03. login
04. "edit locally" for the already uploaded .doc
05. Word opens and I add a new line to the doc
06. Switch KM window
07. Hit "Check in now"
08. Switch to Word and closing it
09. Switch to IE and click on the docs title to open Word. Word shows me the last change.
10. Closing word again
11. "edit locally" and my last changes, which I saw when clicking the title are gone.
12. Closing Word and selecting "Cancel Local Editing" in the km window and closing IE.
13. repeating steps 01 to 04: (open IE, call URL, login, edit locally for that doc)
14. changes are in that document
I we here something from SAP, I'll post it.
best regards,
Nils

Collaboration:Issue with Exchange Calendar Transport & Edit Local Features

I have installed the Exchange Transport to interface the Outlook calendar with our portal calendar. When I attempt to access the Calendar, I receive a blank calendar section (no errors). I have checked permissions and SAP notes, but I can't figure out where the issue is. I have the same problem with the "Edit Local" feature. When I attempt to edit a document, nothing happens (no errors). I even tried installing the Java RTE 1.4, but I do not receive any indicatation that the RTE or ActiveX component is even being used.
Thanks

Hi Vick,
Based on my research, I suggest you should upgrade the AD first.
1. Exchange 2013 CU5 contains schema changes. To upgrade the Schema to CU5 you can execute the following command:
Setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
2. And you also should upgrade the
Configuration Partition and the Domain Partition with the following command:
Setup.exe /PrepareAD /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
Setup.exe /PrepareDomain /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
3. After finished above two steps, now you can start to upgrade an Exchange 2013 server to CU5. Open a command prompt and enter the following command:
Setup.exe /Mode:Upgrade /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms

Help: Collaboration Room Bugs/Issues

Hi,
I have created my own collaboration room template by duplicating the standard Information Site template.
However, i am facing a few issues related to collaboration room creation, which might be standard features/bugs in collaboration room.
1. When i create a new Room, all the users of that room (members as well as administrators) get full access to room documents, headers, news, Faqs etc.
The permissions started working fine when i changed permissions in KM Content --> Room_Extensions.
All the existing rooms showed the correct permissions.
However, whenever i create a new room, every user gets full permissions to all the parts of the room.
This is despite the fact that i have removed all the users from full permissions to the room_extensions folder in KM and reset the child permissions.
2. I have attached the iView com.sap.ip.collaboration/TemplateContent/Homer/iViews/ com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomMemberList (Team Members iView)to my room template.
When i create a new room based on my template, i do not get the users specific to a particular room.
What i get in the Team members list is all the users listed in the Contacts list in Collaboration Launch Pad.
3. When i try to preview some of the iViews stored in com.sap.ip.collaboration/TemplateContent/Homer, i get an exception. On attaching these iViews to the Collaboration Rooms, i get a message stating "Invalid Item ID" index.xml.
I get the same message even after attaching these iViews to a collaboration room template and creating a room based on the template.
Any help regarding these issues would be highly appreciated. Full points for helping me with these issues.
Regards,
Vibhu

Hi Vibhu,
here my comments:
1) These are the standard settings (every room member gets full access) for the permissions of KM content created during a Room creation. Since KM can't distinguish between the room roles, we can't set 'better/stronger' permissions. You can only set manually permissions on concrete users.
2) It seems that you have not set the mappings for this iView. For the RoomMemberList you need the following settings:
StartURI        room_rootrolegroup_rid
path            room_rootrolegroup_rid
roomrid         roomid
in the documentation you find more mappings for iViews delivered by SAP, which You have to set in the templates.
Please see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3f/fcfe06fd7f1321e10000000a114cbd/content.htm for more information.
3) That's possible since some of the iViews needs certain iView-Parameters set to work properly. Please check if this iView needs some mappings under the link in the documentation under 2)
4) Up to now we are treating groups as you described. We are working on a solution where we work with groups as room members and we don't resolve the members of the invited/added group.

Collaboration: DW overwriting files from local cache?

How do I keep Dreamweaver from overwriting newer files on the
server, wen those files were changed by another user?
I have a PHP-driven site built for a client. i do most of the
maintenance, but the client needs to update the text of some pages
frequently as information changes rapidly. So, she edits the pages
in DW.
The problem is that often I'll change file A myself, and then
when she edits file B, DW will quietly overwrite file A with an old
version. I changed her setup to an ftp-only site (no local copy),
and the problem actually got worse ... now it overwrites all files
with old version EVERY time she saves any file! The best I can tell
is it uses some hidden local cache, and always overwrites server
files from the cache, even when the server file is newer.
Is it possible to disable the cache? This client is on DW 8.
Thanks.

It sounds as though what's happening is that the other person
is
selecting the option to upload dependent files.
I don't have Dreamweaver 8 installed any more, but the option
that
controls the upload of dependent files is in Preferences
(Edit menu on
Windows, Dreamweaver menu on a Mac). I'm pretty sure it works
the same
way as in CS4. Select the Site category, and uncheck both
options for
Dependent files.

Collaboration room issue after ehp1

Hi expert,
We have lots of collaboration rooms, each room have their own left-hand navigation. The left hand dynamic navigation contains member list, quick links etc under detailed navigation. All of these items are not visible or missing after ehp1/sps4.
Any method on this?
Thanks.
Eric

Dear Eric,
Please check after creating one new test room and update whether those links are visible or not

Directory Caching issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows

Hi ,
I am facing cache issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows. If I do any change related to modification or deletion of contacts in Active Directory/ Callmanager, it does not reflect in the Jabber. Because jabber takes the contacts from the locally stored cache file in the Windows system.
Every time I have to remove the cache file to overcome this issue, practically it's not possible to do the same with all the Widows users. As, if any employee leaves the company and still I can see his contact appears in the "Cisco Jabber client". I have not seen this issue with Android/Apple iOS.
Is there any automated way to remove the cache file?
Here is the detail of CUCM,Presence and Jabber.
CUCM version: 9.1.x
Presence : 9.1.X
Jabber : 10.5 and 10.6

Hello
On our environment we had to install a dedicated Microsoft Certificate Authority "just for Cisco Jabber usage" to house the
Network Device Enrollment Service.
Our certificate for the CUPS were generated on this Certification Authority too.
I discussed this certificate matter with my colleagues this afternoon and nobody seems to remember how these certificates were deployed into the
Enterprise Trust store for the users.
But I think they asked all 400 users to accept the 3 certificates by answering "yes" to the popup instead of using a script deployed by GPO...
I wish you success with that deployment and really hope you have a technical partner that *Knows* this subject.
Our partner left us alone with that unfortunately.
Florent
EDIT: If the "Certutil script method" works, please let me know. This could be useful in our own deployment.

"404 Error - The requested resource does not exist" found in portal for Collaboration room

Hi Experts,
I am trying to resolve this issue since a week but not able to solve it, so i need your help.
The Problem is when i assign a collaboration room to a user, the room is assigned but when the user clicks on the room link it gives the "404 Error - The requested resource doesn't exist". But if a new room is created and give access to the user, the user is able to open the new room through the link and view the documents.
The Unique thing about the error is, it doesn't occur for every user it happens with few users, since I am the super_admin I am able to view all the rooms without getting such "404 error" even for once.
I have tried by setting up all the permissions to the room and also assigning Everyone role to the rooms, still the problem persists.
I am unable to find a solution for this, so need your help.
Eagerly waiting for your helpful replies.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Shumana.

Hi
Try with following link (VC should be in Caps) -
http://localhost:50400/VC/default.jsp
Also check whether you have proper admin roles assigned to your user id.

Webex Sending Two emails when launched from collaboration room

Hello,
I have a collaboration room set up to use Webex as an online tool. When I click the START button it actually asks me Twice about whether or not I want to launch webex and then it sends me TWO emails: one in ENGLISH and the second in GERMAN.
Here is the contents of the GERMAN email:

Does any one have any ideas on what I need to do for either issue?

Hi Kumar,
This is really a **** to do an trial and error method because it consumes lot of time.
so here is something for u
A step is assigned to multiple users and has a minimum threshold of approvals assigned (that is, assignees are user 1, user 2, and user 3, and two of the three are required to approve before this step can be completed). In this case,
u25CF two of the three users must approve before the step is considered approved
u25CF if two of the three users reject it, the step is rejected, and consequently will either return the task to the last Action Item assignees or, if no previous Action Item exists, will conclude the task, with the history reflecting the rejection.
in my trial i had only two user connected to a group so sometimes second step is recieved by user 1 or user 2 . if one of them approves then document is getting approved and goes to next step
it is same in the case of rejection too.
i hope now everything would be clear
have a look at this [Link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/a1/eb3f54ab7c4ce39408f38d9eb52f65/frameset.htm]

Hi All,
I'm having the same problem myself... There is another simmilar thread at:
[/message/448277#448277 [original link is broken];
It seems that thread has progressed further that this one.
Both seem to be errors connecting LSO to Collaboration rooms. I'm getting both error messages when I try to do the same API connection functions from different points in the system, so I'm guessing that they are the same error. IT seems to be an SSO issue.

SharedObject and Caching issues

Background:
     I am working on a project where I am using sharedObject to store data for a favorites list. The project contains 2 swfs, one in AS 3.0 (using Flex 4.5) and the other an AS 2.0 flash 8 project. Basically the AS 2.0 project read and writes data to the shared object and the AS 3.0 project just reads the data.
Setup:
     OS: Windows 7
     Flash Player: 10.3     Browsers: IE 9, IE 8, Chrome 14, and some misc Firefox testing -- Chrome seems to be working the best.
Problems:
     First off it has been extremely hard to get consistent results across different computers so if anyone has a suggestion as to why that would be (other than different browsers, different flash player versions, different flash player settings/global settings and different OS versions) because I have been making sure all that stuff is consistent across devices for testing purposes.
     1. It appears that some computers/browers won't store the shared object at all even though everything to allow it is turned on.
     2. Some computers/browsers will store it, but won't update until I refresh the page
General Questions:
     1. Is the storage of sharedObject object data in a .sol file configured the same in both AS 2.0 and AS 3.0 and if so, would this be a means of communicating between two swfs running off the same domain?
     2. Is it possible to have a browser cache sharedObject data(the .sol file)?
      3. I have noticed as new flash player releases are coming out(especially recently i.e. 10.3) I have had to make a lot of repairs to the actionscipt 2 stuff. Is actionscript 2 support slowly being phased out? Is anyone else experiencing the same problems?
Possible Solutions/Findings:
     I am starting to believe that it has something to do with browser caching since Chrome seems to perform the best and Chrome has performed best when it comes to browser caching issues.
** code is available if needed but since it was working before I don't think it is relevant.

Hello,
#1
are you using explicit call to flush method immediately afer you're writing data to reference to SharedObject?
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/SharedObject. html#flush()
If not you could have different data read by different browsers sessions run at the same time (e.g. IE/FireFox both hosting your test Flash movies) - as data are flushed only when given Flash runtime session is to be terminated (e.g. movie is to be unloaded) and in other cases as outlined in documentation.
#2
the SharedObject is reference to binary file stored on local machine by Flash runtime (Air runtime too). It has nothing similar to web-fetched content to be cached:

SecurityDomain and Caching Issues

I am running into some caching issues when setting the securityDomain of an imported SWF to match the calling SWF file and I was curious if anyone had any ideas on how to get around this issue.
Here is the scenario:
A.swf is launched on Domain A, it sends a Loader request for B.swf on Domain B.
B.swf will be updated frequently so caching is disabled, A.swf however can be cached.
B.swf has some ExternalInterface.calls so it requires being in the same securityDomain as A.swf otherwise it will receive a Security Error #2006.
The code I am using for this is fairly straightforward:
ActionScript Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://domainB/B.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
loader.load(request, context);
I believe B.swf is inheriting the caching setting of A.swf because it is residing in the same securityDomain. If I make a small update to B.swf and refresh A.swf in a browser it will not load the B.swf updates until I clear cache.
If I get rid of the securityDomain context on the load it will always update B.swf with the most current version, but I run into security issues with ExternalInterface.
ActionScript Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://domainB/B.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(request);
I have tried appending random strings to the end of the URLRequest while using the securityDomain context but it will always used a cached version of B.swf. I have also tried loading B.swf into a ByteArray then using loadBytes on a Loader but that didn't work either.
Any ideas are appreciated!

Collaboration Room iViews give error -- Database related errors -- Pls Help

Hello Everyone,
We are on EP 6.0 SP 17 (Netweaver 2004).
KMC component was installed separately (Deployed manually).
We are trying to create simple Collaboration Rooms and we are facing some issues with the same.
I am following the documentation on SAP Help for the Room Creation:
Help  SAP Netweaver 2004  People Integration  Collaboration  Administration Guide
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1d/3d59fdaa5ebb45967ea107d3fa117a/frameset.htm
We are able to create rooms based on pre-defined templates and we are also able to add members to rooms, send/receive the invitation emails. I am able to work with Instant Messaging also.
But the problem is that some of the iViews related to Collaboration Rooms are giving errors.
1. Discussion iView gives an error saying You do not have access permission (even the user has all the necessary roles assigned).
Log for this error is as follows:
Exception ID = 90c3315f-c29d-2910-87ac-806aa372da7f com.sapportals.wdf.WdfError at com.sapportals.wdf.WdfCompositeController.buildComposition(WdfCompositeController.java:678)at com.sapportals.htmlb.AbstractCompositeComponent.preRender(AbstractCompositeComponent.java:33)

I tried to change the permissions of the Discussion iView, but it did not work either.
2. Some iViews like Room Information throw a Runtime Error as follows:
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : pcd:portal_content/com.sap.ip.collaboration/RoomPartContent/Generic/Pages/com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomDiscussionPage/com.sap.netweaver.coll.RoomInformationExtended

The exception was logged. Inform your system administrator..
Exception id: 02:17_02/02/07_0006_213711350
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
I have figured out that the following error message is common in most or the error messages:
The SQL statement "INSERT INTO "KMC_URIMAPPER" ("HASH_KEY","EXTERNAL_KEY","CONST_INTERNAL","VAR_INTERNAL","EK_PREFIX","EKHK00","EKHK01","EKHK02","EKHK03","EKHK04","EKHK05","EKHK06","EKHK07","EKHK08","EKHK09","EKHK10","EKHK11","EKHK12","EKHK13","EKHK14") VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)" contains the semantics error[s]: column "EK_PREFIX" not in any scope
Are there any database related configurations required for making the Collaboration Room Discussion functionality work properly?
Are there any KM related configurations necessary other than those mentioned in the document I am referring to?
Are there any database related configurations that are required?
I would really appreciate any help in this matter. Please advise me about any ideas you may have?
Thanks,
Raj Seelam

Hello Lars,
First of all thank you for your reply.
do u use Collaboration first time?
Yes, we just started using Collaboration and this is our first requirement.
Which roles do u have?
I have all the required roles (Super Admin, Content Management, Collaboration, Collaboration Room Creation).
I know that these features are available in NW04 SP 17 without any limitations. I have reviewed SAP Notes 707730, 711093, 709354 and 946470 also.
This problem is with only a few Collaboration iViews.
I am able to create Rooms, Enter Rooms, Receive Invitation e-mails without any problem.
Any suggestions about any possible missing configurations ?
Thanks Again,
Raj

Some questions on Collaboration rooms

HI,
In some of the room templates I found an extension BANNER. But how do I configure a Banner for my room I couldnt find.
I want to add a quick poll to my room template which I developed. How do I go about this.
The Search Room functionality: DOes this require TREX set up and if so what do I need to index for it to work.
Now in a collaboration room if i have a documents page which is a navigation page, the end user gets access to Move, Copy, Delete etc etc on the resources. How do I remove such links?
If I need to create any other such iView like a BI iView in my room template, how do I go about this?
Points assured for a Detailed Answer.

thanks vijayakumar kanniah mohan
The room part works once I already have 2-3 created rooms.
Suppose I wish to add a quickpoll to the tenmplate will it reflect fo all the rooms which have been priorly created using this template.
In such a scenario, what can I do?
e.g. My template is MYTEMPLATE out of which I create ROOM 1 and ROOM 2. I can go and add room parts to those 2 rooms. But what if I want to just edit the room template and say add the quick poll to an existing page there. How do I get it reflected in ROOM 1,2.
Also I didnt quite get the answer to the Banner question.
I have the folowing Extensions in the room tempalte:
Banner
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM
Contacts
cmRoomExtensionSP2FP
ON_CREATE_ROOM
ON_DELETE_ROOM

But how do I put an image as the banner and where.
Thanks agian and waiting in anticipation for your reply.

Sort order of documents in a collaboration room

hi everybody
i have a collaboration room where documents are stored in it. the sort order of my folders in the collaboration room is determined by the names of the folders.
now there are many folders in folders and at the bottom-level-folder there are the documents stored. these documents are sorted by the names of the documents too.
now my problem:
the sorting of the folders by name is OK, but at the bottom-level in the bottom-level-folder i need the documents sorted by "modified"-date (for all users). How can i easy made this change? (hope not to make a new layout set...:-() can you please post a guidance?
thank you for your help!
flo

thank you for your feedbacks...
the suggested solutions are not bad but i have this problem:
in the collaboration room we use two layout sets, one for the users with write-permission (layout set FileExplorer) and one for the users with read-permissions (layout set AnonymExplorer).
in the collaboration room the folder-structure for documents should be sorted by folder-name but in the bottom-level-folders, the documents should be sortet by modified-date.
now the problem is, that i can assign only one layout set to a folder, that would mean, that the users with the read- and write-permissions both would have the same view...
do you see another solution?
please help!
thank you
flo
