Content server installation

HI experts
I would like to clear following doughty regarding content server

2.     If content server configure as vault (DVA) no need to install SAP MAXDBA.
3.     Can us user content server as vault and with SAP MAX DBA functionally.
Please guide
Regards

Hi Aseem,
1. If we need to use continent server as Knowledge provider (prod) we need to install SAP MAXDB.
Answer is YES. You need to define HTTP content server repository with MAxDB as the storage area.
2. If content server configure as vault (DVA) no need to install SAP MAXDBA.
Answer is NO. DVA is based on file system level repository.
3. Can us user content server as vault and with SAP MAX DBA functionally.
Answer is No. You cannot use DVA along with MaxDB.

Content server installation on susi linux 9

Hi friends
this is first time i am installing content server on linux system . and i facing too many problems as iam really not aware of linux
anway can provide me step by step details to install and configure content server on linux operating system

Hello!
I presume (taking the name of this forum) the original question was about SAP ContentServer?
This would be a rough description how to configure a SAP CS/CSC for FileSystemStorage
0) if linux is not your platform of choice (it would be mine) - take a different platform
1) read and understand SAP notes, especially 664384, 586895 and related
2) make sure you are using an enterprise linux (cf. service.sap.com/PAM)
3) your linux installation should (amongst others) contain
    a) gcc (GNU c-compiler)
    b) gdbm-devel
    c) libexpat
in general this would be described as a development (with regard to software building) system by some linux distro's
4) retrieve the apache 2.0.x (for allowed x: cf service.sap.com/PAM) source code to build your own apache
5) be root user
6) create group sapsys
7) create user csadmin, primary group: sapsys
8) you may want to create an own filesystem for content, e.g. /SAP
9) as user csadmin build apache with option (amongst others) --prefix=/home/csadmin (presuming this is csadmin's HOME)
10) if you also need the cache server (you will as soon as you have more than 1 location, repeat 6, 7 and 9 for user cscadmin
11) as root (make sure you have X), execute sapinst from the installation master
12) installation almost as under Windoze - don't use AdminSecurity as it will not work with modern UNIXes (ContentServer wrongly assumes that /etc/passwd contains the crypted passwords and there's a note proposing to put it there - security alert in my humble opinion) - better to protect transaction csadmin
13) you should be all set
I hope I didn't forget anything - this was from memory.
Contact me if you have problems.
Good luck and best regards, Markus

Content Server installation for Delivery

Hi,
I have managed to do a content management installation with a single node to a WebLogic domain. I have read the installation documentation available but have not found instructions on how to set up a delivery configuration. The installer gives you an option at "Sites System Type" to select "Delivery System" and I understand this creates a deployment package for delivery only installation.
However, it is not clear whether I need to create an additional domain to host the delivery installation. So, should I do a setup like this:
SitesEditorialDomain with SitesEditorialCluster containing a single node SitesEditorialServer01 - this would be the content management site
SitesDeliveryDomain with SitesDeliveryCluster containing one or more nodes (like SitesDeliveryServer01 and so forth) this would be the target for publishing content
SitesSatelliteDomain with SitesSatelliteCluster containing one or more satellite server nodes to serve cached content
This would resemble the Fatwire installations I am familiar with. Am I on a right track?
Br,
Timo

Content server (installation error)

hi,
I have installed content server (oracle+UCM). on Windows 2000+SP4 platform.
But the problem I am facing is.. when I try to start content server system goes idle.
Its not giving me Login screen. But all other applications are working fine.
Can any one tell me what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Everybody
I had the same problem with an installation of content Server 6.4 on AIX 5.3.
I checked the file in modules using "file" command and the result is :
"for apache" mod_access.so: executable (RISC System/6000) or object module not stripped
"for Content Server" mod_sapcs2.o: 64-bit XCOFF executable or object module not stripped
I think that the apache was not compiled in 64 bits.
Also, i want to compiled Apache file in 64 Bit but i did not find the procedure or command.
Could you give me more informations to solve it
Many thanks in advance

SAP Content server installation using apache web server under HP-UX 11i

Hello,
I installed a SAP Content Server 6.4 in HP-UX 11.11 with MaxDB 7.6.
Although Installation is finished completely I got an syxtext error when apache web server is started after completing installation as below;
kbwpdc 106: /home/dmscs/bin>./apachectl start
Syntax error on line 233 of /home/dmscs/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /home/dmscs/modules/mod_sapcs2.so into server: Invalid
argument
I think apache web server doesn't know mod_sapcs2.so although it exists in the directory(/home/dmscs/module).
- Working sequence
1) Environment variables setup to compile with 64bit.
2) "configure" generation with option relevant to SAP content server
3) "make" generation
4) "make install" generation
5) Install SAP Content server 6.40
6) Install MaxDB 7.6
7) Edit httpd.conf for loading mod_sapcs2.so module and changing Listen port.
8) Start apache web server.
Do I need to configure to solve this syntext error? missing any step?
Please let me know to solution if you had experienced with the same problem.
I will wait for your response.
Thanks,
Mark Yoo.

Hi Mark,
Can i check with you how do you set your environment to compile in 64bit ? My file mod_sapcs.o apear in the libexec directory instead of mod_sapcs.so. That why my apache cannot start. It prompted Cannot load module /home/sapcs/libexec/mod_sapc.o

Content server installations for OLM

Dear all,
We are in 11.5.10.2 instance with DB 10.1.0.5 ( upgraded) on multy node HPUX-PA-RISC and Itanium
We need to install content server in the different m/c. and we are going through the note 351047.1
In that they mentioned "Install container"
Is webserver Oracle 9iAS Release 2 will work for OLM content server setup.
If that is the case Is infrastructure should be installed first?
Is the Portal and wireless will work for our case?
what about 9i AS application server installation?
Kindly give us the detailed installation steps for OLM content server setup.
and What OS will be best suitable for this?
Thanks and regards
Vasu

Dear all,
I am having some doubts in the doc: 374677.1 Utilising content server with Oracle Learning management.
Let us take our existing oracle application as "APPS server" and content server install on windows is "CONTENT server"
(1) Install the container, such as Apache and ApacheJserv.
Ans: CONTENT server
(2) Create a servlet repository called servlets. For example, in Jserv, the servlets
repository exists by default.
Ans: CONTENT server
(3) Copy the following files to your servlet repository directory:
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/ContentServerServlet.class
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/ProtocolConstants.class
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/SystemUtils.class
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/SystemUtils$JarUtility.class
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/ContentServeerClientData.class
Note:
The file location depends on the variable $JAVA_TOP.
If the application is running successfully then these files should definitely exist there
Make sure that the ENTIRE directory structure is copied over to the servlet repository directory.
So if the servlet repository directory is:
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/servlets
then the destination of these classes are as follows:
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/servlets/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/ContentServerServlet.class
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/servlets/oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util/ProtocolConstants.class
etc
Ans: APPS server to CONTENT server. how top copy entire directory structure
is we need to create directory like "oracle/apps/ota/admin/common/util"
(4) Also ensure the oracle.apps.fnd.common.VersionInfo.class file is located
under the class path directory that is defined for the repository.
Note:
This file should be found under $JAVA_TOP as follows:
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/fnd/common/VersionInfo.class
Again, the entire directory structure needs to be copied, for example.:
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/servlets/oracle/apps/fnd/common/VersionInfo.class
Ans: from APPS server to CONTENT server
==========================================
(5) In zone.properties, add the following: (????? which zone properties
APPS server or CONTENT server?????????
# ----- OLM Content server ----- # servlet.OtaContentServerServlet.code=oracle.apps.ota.admin.common.util.ContentServerServlet
servlet.OtaProtocolConstants.code=oracle.apps.ota.admin.common.util.ProtocolConstantsservlet.OtaSystemUtils.code=oracle.apps.ota.admin.common.util.SystemUtils
servlet.OtaSystemUtils$JarUtility.code=oracle.apps.ota.admin.common.util.SystemUtils$JarUtilityservlet.OtaContentServerClientData.code=oracle.apps.ota.admin.common.util.ContentServerClientData
#----- END OLM
Note:
The zone.properties file location can vary depending on the implementation, usually in the apache server.
Ask the admin who set up the apache server, or look under the apache server setup.
(6) Create an alias for the directory where the content will be stored. For example, in Apache, to create an alias for the physical directory
Ans: CONTENT server
D:/apache/rootdir/, add the following inside the httpd.conf file:
Alias /content/ ’D:/apache/rootdir/’
(7) Add the list of middle tiers and the temporary file location as arguments to the Java Interpreter. For example, in Jserv, add following lines inside the jserv.properties file:
Ans : CONTENT server.
wrapper.bin.parameters=-Dmiddletier=148.87.19.51+148.87.19.50+144.25.78.202+10.10.20.140wrapper.bin.parameters=-DTemp=D:\temp
wrapper.bin.parameters=-Djava.io.tmpdir=/dbfiles/applcsf/log
Here the numbers, such as 148.87.19.51 and 148.87.19.50, are IP addresses of all trusted middle tiers, and + is the separator for multiple addresses.
Servers not specified in the list are not able to access the servlet.
D:\temp is the absolute path of the temp location where files are saved temporarily while handling physical content.
/dbfiles/applcsf/log is any existing directory for log files.
Pl go through the above and clear my doubt. ( about which server we need to do the task).
1. CONTENT server.
2. CONTENT server.
3. from APPS server to CONTENT server.
4. from APPS server to CONTENT server.
5. ????? which server CONTENT server or APPS server??????? if it is a APPS server under which directory the zone.property file will locate.
6. CONTENT server.
7. CONTENT server.
Kindly suggest me.
Regards
Vasu

SAP DMS and Content server installation.

Hi,
I am new in DMS. i have done configuration of DMS . now i want to store document on Content server.
so how to install content server on windows server 2003.
How to connect DMS and content sever?
How to access document ?
please help.
Thanks,
Dipak.

Hi Ricardo,
1. By using T-code DC10-Document type creation:- you will create Document type first.
a. create document type
b. define status if you need.
c. Object Linking- if you want document attach to SAP object then you need to configure by using same T-codeDC10.
and please go through below link:
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/CADMS/CADMS.pdf
2. You want to Store document into SAP database/file system/SAP Content Server.
a. you need to decide first where you will store document.
suppose you select store into SAP Content Server then you need to select KPRO check-box in DC10. then you need to create Content repository by using OAC0 tcode an create storage Category in OACT transaction.
b. suppose you want to store into File system then you need to configure Data Carrier in DC20 T-Code.
c. if you want to store SAP Database then also you need to Content repository same like SAP content Server in OAC0 tcode and select storage type as SAP DATABASE.
and then create storage category.
if you have any query please let me know
Thanks,
Dipak.

Content Server - Disassociated installation

Hi,
I have done the following installations.
Linux machine1 - Content Server 10gR3
Linux machine2 - Oracle AS 10gR3 with Apache server (using this as web server)
Linux machine3 - Oracle DB 10gr2
In "install_cserver_unix_10en.pdf", under Section F2.2 - Configuring web server system, it states I have to copy "[Instance_Dir]\idcplg", but I don't see this folder in my Content Server installation.
Without completing this particular step, when I try to login to the server, I get the error "The Server is unavailable. Unable to connect to address.".
Is the error related to that particular step or did I miss any other setup?
BTW i followed the instructions provided in install_cserver_unix_10en.pdf for my installation.
Can anyone please point me to a solution?
Thanks
Raji

Check that you are running IdcAdmin and IdcServer on the Linux Machine1.
It appears that idcplg is not needed on solaris installations with sun's webserver.

Using MS-Sharepoint as a content server from ECC 6.0

Hi, gurus.
From the
[SAP Content Server Installation Guide|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/cfa73246-0a01-0010-71b4-bc21ccb45c99&overridelayout=true]
...you will find this information:
You can find a description of the SAP Content Server Interface in the SAP Library (on the documentation CD or under www.//help.sap.com) under SAP Web Application Server u2192 Basis Services u2192 Knowledge Provider u2192 Content Management Service u2192 SAP Content Server HTTP Interface. If you want to integrate another content server into your network, the new content server must fulfil the requirements of the interface.
My simple question is:
Is it possible to use MS Sharepoint as a content server from ECC 6.0 ?
Please advice.

Hi Athol,
Thanks very much, your answers are very helpful.
To use SharePoint as SAP DMS for document management. We have depend on the 3rd party products like iNet.DM from ERP.Link or Duet Enterprise and separate licenses required for products?
Without this 3rd party products, it is not possible to use SharePoint as SAP DMS?
What is best and cost effective way of achieving this requirement?
Thanks and Regards,
Venky.

IIS as Content Server

Dear guys,
we are planning to bypass the Enterprise Portal and separating the content player in separate host and Content Repository in separate host. adding to that we are planning the Content Server by using IIS.
The operation speed of the Enterprise Portal is little slow. So we decided to use the IIS as Content Server
send me the link of the document or give me the idea for
separating the Content Player in separate host.
Configuration between Content Player and IIS ( as Content Server)

All that informations is available in the SAP Content Server installation guide in SAP Marketplace.
