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,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/97/d4ee3d6434445ae10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
Hope it helps,
Regards,

Pls help! Creating a new simple jsp iView...

Hi, I would like to create a totally new iView JSP project from scratch. I currently have NetWeaver and EP 6.0. This is what I have done so far on NetWeaver: File > New > Project > Select Portal Application > click 'Next' > Type in Project name and root folder > click 'FINISH'. Now, I think I have a project ready? I have some basic iView JSP code already. so now can someone provide me with detailed steps on what modifications and steps I need to make on my new project in order for my iView jsp to display on the EP 6.0? Any files like 'portalapp.xml' that I have to modify?
Thank you so much for your help,
Baggett.
What I know so far: I have looked at an example where I created one using an existing par. I know how to export .par file to EP 6.0, it's the steps before that I don't know. Thanks again.

Hi, I think I found a little solution to my problem but now I have a new issue. I think I "solved" my problem by doing: File > New > Project > Select Portal Application > click 'Next' > Type in Project name and root folder > click 'FINISH'. Now, I do:
File > New > Other > Portal Application > Create a new Portal Application Object > Select my Project > Portal Component/JSPDynPage (is this the 'easy' one to pick b/c it seems to update the portalapp.xml file, creates a jsp file (myFirstJSP.jsp) and bean for me) > I type in all the textfields for file name, package name, ... > click 'FINISH'. 
Is this a correct/good way of starting a JSP project(I don't really know what a JSPDynPage is)
Now I have a new issue. I open up myFirstJSP.jsp and NetWeaver highlights all the code (pasted below) in yellow and there is no error displayed:
<hbj:content id="myContext" >
<hbj:page title="PageTitle">
 <hbj:form id="myFormId" >
 </hbj:form>
</hbj:page>
</hbj:content>
So I try to paste this line into myFirstJSP.jsp: <%@ taglib uri="tagLib" prefix="hbj" %>and also paste this line onto portalapp.xml:
<component-profile>
 <property name="tagLib" value="/SERVICE/htmlb/taglib/htmlb.tld"/>
</component-profile> 
Now, I get an error saying: "JSP Parsing Error:File "/dist/PORTAL_INF/pagelet/tagLib" not found"
Why is this? How can I fix it?
Thanks so much,
Baggett.

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?!?!

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.

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

Created Folders in portal favorites iView automaticly open

Hi,
if we create new folders in the iView portal favorites, the folders are automaticly open! Does anybody know how to change that, so that the folders are closed, when we open the iView? I tried to change the Layout Set "portalfavoritesexplorer", but I didn't get forward!
Regards,
Andy

Hello,
Check in the properties of your Favorites iview, that the parameter "Layout Set" is set to "PortalFavoritesExplorer" and the parameter "Layout Set Mode" is set to "force".
Now change the PortalFavoritesCollectionRenderer parameter Initial displayed tree level = 1.
Refresh your browser and login again. You should see the changes take effect.

Marko,
I know I answered you through support, but for the benefit of the newsgroups
When using Oracle, you must run the sql scripts provided. The
insert-pzsamples-oracle.sql script is included in the create-p13n-oracle.sql
scripts. This script includes inserting information into the tables that are
required for creating new portlets. In particular, inserts to the
WLCS_SCHEMA table and inserts to the Meta Data tables (*MD*) are required.

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

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.

Error creating new portal from docs

Hello,
I've been trying for several days now to create a new Portal from the

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.

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.

Portal Transaction iView Button disabled

Hello expert,
I wish know why the button on menu of Pop-Up Portal are disabled.
I created a SAP Portal Transaction iView:
Image:
http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/7001/helpsdn.jpg
And the button NEW WINDOW is disabled, but if I put on the field where we type transaction: /ose37
then, a new window will open because I used /o
My question is: Why this button - NEW WINDOW is disabled? How can I enable this?
thanks.

The solution for other versions is explained in the same note. However the note says that the procedure is NOT recommended and NOT supported by SAP.
You will need to editi the WinGuiRenderLayer.properties and set -wp=false in the SSDCommandTemplate
For NW04 realease and above the WinGuiRenderLayer.properties can be found at:
../usr/sap/< SID>/<InstID>/j2ee/cluster/server< server#> /apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root/web-inf/portal/portalapps/com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap/property/transaction
(Make these changes in all the server nodes. A restart of the portal might be required after making these changes.)
Please note that if you change anything in this property file, it will be overwritten if a new version of application com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.par is delivered or when a new SP is applied.
It is also recommended to keep the original archive com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.par in a temporary folder and redeploy it if you encounter any side effects.

Portal Favorites iview always appear in detailed navigation

Hello,
I have a problem regarding the Detailed Navigation with the Portal Favorites iview.
The iview always appears in the Detailed Navigation, although the only thing it shows is the message "there are no items to display" (meaning that there are no favorites). This causes the detailed navigation to always appear even when there is no need for it (no navigation links and no other content attached to it).
I tried removing the Portal Favorites iview (because we don't use that iview in the portal and have no need for it) from the innerpage of the default framework page, and it works, but after the next restart of the portal, the iview returns.
Is there any way to remove it completely so that it won't appear again?
We're running EP7 SP14.
Thanks in advance,
Tal.

Hi,
Create a new framework page by creating a delta link of the original page and then modify that framework page.
Also you will have to create a new portal desktop and use the modified page and also set the desktop rules accordingly.
