Creating a new portal in a new domain - no baseportal template

Using Weblogic Platform 7.0 on Solaris 8, I'm trying to work through the
procedure at http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs70/dev/newdom.htm "Creating a
new portal in a new domain."
Step 1 "Creating the new domain" goes fine. I can start the portal
server using WL/user_projects/domainname/startPortal.sh and connect to
its console at http://server:7501/console.
In Step 2 "Create the new portal", I start up ebcc.sh, open the project,
and run the Portal Wizard. I get as far as "Portal Templates". The
portal templates comes up empty; there is no baseportal icon, and I
can't go any further.
What's wrong?!?!

Creating and populating portal domain

I have created a portal domain on 8.1 platform using configuration wizard the problem
is that I the domain is empty and I need thelibraries available on the sample
portal how I am supposed to get to the my portal domain since I thought they would
be provided automaticall once creating portal domain ,in other words what would
be the standard way doing this .

The admin portal exists as part of a portal application; it modifies the
state of the portal resources in the application it's part of. If
there's no app (such as with a new portal domain), there's no admin portal.
You should use Workshop to create a new portal application on your new
portal domain. In Workshop, use the menus: File|New|Application...,
choose Portal Application, choose the name of application, choose the
directory to put the application, then browse the Server field to the
config.xml of the portal domain you created.
If the server isn't already running, you can use Tools|WebLogic
Server|Start Server to start it, at which point Workshop will deploy the
new portal application to you domain, and you will be able to access the
admin portal (including on the menu from Portal|Portal Administration...

Hi Folks,
I wanted to create my own portal domain in WebLogic 8.1 portal and I used the

to access the potal admin console (http://localhost:7001/PortalAppAdmin/portal.portal),
it shows 404 error.
How do I access the portal admin console in my own domain? Do I need to tweak
anything in configuration?

After creating the domain ran the create_db.cmd in windows, It created a folder weblogic_eval. I have started the service startDerby.cmd.
When i am trying to start the weblogic server its throwing me below exception.
FYI My apache Derby DB is running on port 1527

Are you intending to use Oracle DB or Derby DB? If you intend to use Oracle, then you need to modify the connection information for the RDBMS Security Store. This is another step in the Domain Configuration Wizard, per release note 13371687.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26806_01/wlp.1034/e14247/relnotes.htm#CJAEGAGD
If you follow this, you don't need to configure or start Derby DB.

Webapp not found when creating a new portal

Hi all,
I've just started exploring Weblogic Portal 8.1, and am now attempting to set-up a basic portal from scratch. Here's what I did.
1) Created a Weblogic Portal Domain using the Configuration Wizard. The domain name is "mydomain". The server name is "myserver".
2) In Weblogic Workshop, created a new application called "testportal".
3) In "testportal" application, created a new portal web project called "portal".
4) created "myportal.portal" portal in the "portal" portal web project.
5) Tried to start the portal (URL: http://localhost:7001/portal/myportal.portal), but received this error message:
"Webapp portal not found in application testportal."
6) When I tried to hit http://localhost:7001/portal, I was able to hit index.jsp for the web application, so the portal web app is alright.
Any ideas what I'm missing here?
Thanks!

I'm not sure of what is going on but just wondering.. did you drag and drop portlets on to the portal?
I recommend you to try the below step-by-step tutorials.

Error creating new portal from docs

Hello,
I've been trying for several days now to create a new Portal from the
"Customizing Portals and Portlets" document
(http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs40/portal/devbasic.htm).
I get all the way to "Verify Your Deployment" without issue. I can even
verify the data synchronization using the data repository browser.
When I go to http://localhost:7501/insevoportal (or /InsevoPortal or

David,
Did you get any errors or warnings when you ran a sync?
You can run a sync from the command line as well as from the EBCC. See the
sync.cmd and syncApplication.cmd for details. Also, launching the EBCC with
an open console window may give you some more information, as well as
checking the EBCC log.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

Daniel,
Thanks for the response!
I believe I have sync'd the application. I go to the portalDataSync web
app, choose "Data Repository" link.
Then I click the View icon for the Master Data Repository.
Under there, I see things like:
/webapps/InsevoPortal12/InsevoPortal12.portal
/webapps/InsevoPortal12/portal.wf (and security.wf, tools.wf,
user_account.wf, webflow-extensions.wfx)
Looks about the same as the stockportal list. *** EXCEPT ** I don't see
my Portlet in my list. Is that because it has no workflow? I can see
the portlet in the EBCC.
In the stockportal, I see portlet2.wf and portlet3.wf. I don't see any
portlet wfs in my app.
Any help is appreciated. I will consider 7.0.

David

David,
This usually means that you haven't synced the data to the correct
application. When you go to the DataSync WebApp *for your portal
application* do you see the portal and portlet files under the
Portal/Portlet DataRepository?

Create new portal-user with webservice

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a ejb-webservice which is creating a new Portal-User.
The webservice is working so far, I made methods like getDisplayName() which is returning the display name to a logonId and so on. All this is working. I'm using the component sap.security.api.sda for this.
Problem: User-creation is not working. I think the problem might be, that a webservice is not authorized to create users? Or putting it in another way: Is it possible that a webservice is "logging in" at the portal, or sohehow authorizing itself?
Thanks and regards
Jan Hempel

Hi Detlev,
thanks for Your answer.
It seems like that the problem was caused by using array-parameters in the webservice-method?!
Strange, but after removing the array-parameter from the method it worked! Before the webservice never returned anything, not an error or anything else.
Well, strange enough, but I can live with that.
regards
Jan

New Portal User options are disabled when trying to create a new User

Anyone can provide me the document on how to create the new profile on portal. Thanks.
Best Regards,

Hi Chander,
I just want to know if you are able to modify the attributes of an existing user. If not then you have been assigned the User Admin role (read only). Please check that. If yes then revert.

These two actions use two different Tx Data Sources( myDataSource and
commercePool ) respectively.
Everytime I invoke createPortalAccount(), the account is created but the
system is hang too.
Here is my code:
private void createPortalAccount(String username, String password)
throws RemoteException {
UserManagerHome umHome=null;
UserManager userManager = null;
String UM_HOME = ".BEA_personalization.UserManager";
try {
umHome = (UserManagerHome) JndiHelper.lookupNarrow("portal" +
UM_HOME,
UserManagerHome.class);
userManager = umHome.create();
if(userManager.userExists(username)) {
throw new Exception();
else{
ProfileWrapper pw = userManager.createUser(username,
password);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Is there any restraction of creating a portal account in EJB?
The function can work alone in a normal java application class.

Portal 7: Creating a new portal site based on one of the samples

Hi guys,
I followed this article (
http://blogs.sun.com/jimfaut/entry/portal_7_creating_a_new ) to set up a new portal site like Enterprise sample
But when I log in the new site with new account , it always says "Login Unsucessful" .But If I use the accounts of old Enterprise Sample site such as : mary, chris, ed , the login is successful .
It seems the new site use the login page of the old site .
I don't know why . May you teach me to fix this strange bug ?
Best Regards,
Il2fsomuch
Edited by: milf on Mar 6, 2008 6:03 PM

I know this is an old post but I have added to Jim Fauts article how to do this, see below:
Seeing that alot of people are facing the same problem regarding new user being unable to authenticate against the new Portal, I did a bit of digging up and managed to get it to work. See the steps I followed below, but first follow Jim's example above then after follow the example below:
After configuring the roles and loading display profile change the following settings, so that the new user's you create can authenticate.
I did the following to get my new users to authenticate:
On Solaris I opened the following file: /var/opt/SUNWportal/portals/csonline/desktop/csonline/Login/display.template
I changed all occurrences of org=EnterpriseSample to my new organization o=fiction
I also changed the Organization display profile document, replaced every occurrence of o=EnterpriseSample with the name of my organization fiction, in this case I replaced all values that are o=EnterpriseSample,dc=test,dc=co,dc=za
With o=fiction,dc=test,dc=co,dc=za
After configuration you might get a module denied error Authentication Module Denied
Depending on which module you are using, in my case I am using LDAP so I also changed all occurrences of Membership to LDAP inside the display.template file.
After the above changes restart your web container container for the changes to take place and Bobs your uncle.
Thats it. Its alive !!!
Hope this helps

Creating a new Portal Masthead iView..

Hi,
I would like to create a new Portal Masthead iView for my portal application which should contain the logoff and help option. From which iView, I can create it?
Thankyou,
Sudheesh...

Hi Sudheesh,
Masthead: contains branding elements, user identification, and the appropriate (based on the portal configuration) function links from among Help, Personalize, New Session, Log Off and Log On.
In the Portal Catalog, go to Portal Users --> Standard Portal Users --> Default Framework Page --> Masthead iView, and in the Help Link URL property, enter the URL of the site you want launched when the user clicks the Help link.
Also check on to this link,

Error deploying new portal logon page

Hi Gurus,
I'm getting an error deploying my new portal logon page. I've made teh necessary changes to the portal.logon.par.bak file. I've rename it and made the necessary changes in config tool. i've created a new autoscheme_test.xml file and have assigned it accordingly. After restarting the portal, i'm getting the error message below trying to launch the portal :-
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :

The exception was logged. Inform your system administrator..
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
Any ideas? Are there any other setting that i need to do aside from teh autosceme file. thanks

Hi Johan,
There are two lib files which you need to paste while you import the file in the NWDS.Just check for the steps through this weblog
the jar files name are
com.sap.portal.runtime.logon_api.par
umelogonbase.jar
(when you unzip you can find the files at PORTAL-INFlib)
Modifying The Logon Par(or customising the Logon Screen)
