Custom CWS in EDK 5.3

I wrote a custom CWS that worked with EDK 5.1 in 5.0. I'm now trying to deploy the same crawler to Foundation 6.0 with EDK 5.3 but my crawler is failing. Are there differences between the two EDK versions that would cause this? If so, is there any documentation of a sample CWS using 5.3? For reference, my custom CWS isn't much more than a basic version of the DatabaseRecordViewer sample CWS. Thanks!

That right Diego, but I figure out now that those are sap standard approver determinator I beleve as i mentions such as Role, Manger, no stage etc etc, you know what I mean. Becuse on one stage and path level we were using ROLE as (approver Determinator) and I have to sync up same in my development system.
tell me I think I need to upload the roles and those roles will go to approver 1 stage is role owner (as ROLE cad) and 2 stage is business process owner (as BPO_CAD) different approver, so that ROLE cad we have ROLE OWNER stage.
So tell me the right way that how would I assign my roles only to ROLE cad (at first stage) as role owner approver.

Custom CWS? (Crawler Web Service)

Plumtree Customers and Partners,
For the Odyssey conference in October, I would like to highlight a few examples of custom Crawler Web Services that have been built at customer sites (or by partners).
If you have an example that you'd like to share, please email me -> [email protected]

Hi,
Ok.
Can you check in Home>Application Builder>Application 100>Shared Components>Authentication Schemes>Edit Authentication Scheme
in the Select List field Session Not Valid Page
that it is page 2.
Check that page 101 has :APP_USER populated when you navigate to it.
It seems you created Web Service reference manually by copy pasting SOAP envelope?
And there is region SOAP Response with field Store Response in Collection
When you create Web service reference using WSDL document location, then you are not asked for collection name.
Only when you create On Submit process of type Web service in page 101, there is an option to use collection or item.
And if you create Web service manually, it seems you can not choose between collection and item, you need to use collection that you specified when creating reference.
Anyway, you can use collection with that dummy login page approach since :APP_USER is populated with nobody on page 101.
I updated above page and created Web service reference manually from SOAP envelope (from the same Webs service)
and put there the second region with the result. Collection is specified in Web service reference.
I hope that will solve your issue.

Oleg

Clearing custom session variable in 5.0

I have set a custom session variable in a method called in the OnAfterLogin PEI.
Do I need to ckear this session variable on logout? If so, how do I do that?
Or does the session variable clear on its own if teh session is abandoned or killed on logout?
I just want to make sure I am not leaking any memory and do proper housekeeping.
Thanks!

Sam,
It appears that you are one of the few installations that actually used a display/formatting page under 4.x. Under 5.0 you have the option of going directly to the source of the card or gatewaying the card. Those are your only two options to my knowledge. I suppose that the answer might rest on using docfetch but this would require a custom CWS.
Good Luck

How to disable Gateway for intranet, enable Gateway for extranet

We are upgrading from Plumtree 4.5 to Plumtree 5.04 (.NET), and are having issues with web cards going through the gateway space. The requirement is for intranet users to NOT use the gateway space to access content, and for extranet users to use the gateway - since they could not access the content without the gateway from outside the firewall.
In Plumtree 4.5, we created a custom file that checked to see if the user was on the intranet or extranet. Basically, if intranet then redirect to the content file - else if extranet, go through gateway.asp to open the file.
In Plumtree 5.04, the gateway setting is on the web service for the data source and it is either always gateway the content or never gateway the content. Is there a way to allow extranet users to utilize the gateway, but turn the gateway off for intranet users???? I saw a couple of posts for the AccessingFromIntranetuser info setting - if that setting is set to true, does that turn off the gatewaying? Set to false, it allows the gateway to continue?
We need to turn the gateway off for intranet users due to our content sitting on a web server farm behind a foundry/load balancing switch. With gateway turned on, all of the traffic to the content servers comes from the three web servers and not the client browsers - so all traffic is routed to one content server, overloading it, instead of being load balanced across the content server farm. We can't turn off the gateway entirely, since users have to be able to get to the content from the extranet via the Portal.
This is for the standard "World Wide Web" data source, so it is not a custom CWS (not a NT file crawler).
Thanks in advance for your help! This is a showstopper for our implementation!

Hi Richa,
As "Agent proxy not enable" is a default rule which comes from microsoft SCOM 2007R2 or 2012 R2 you cannot disable it or override it by saying don't trigger on
the SCCM agent. If you are overriding a rule or monitor you need to first disable it and tell SCOM trigger only on these agents and add the agents one by one. As you cannot disable this so it is not possible possible.
Any ways you can try this as per the below screen shot and let me know if it works.
Add the SCCM server to a group by creating a new group from the groups in Authoring tab and make that SCCM a member of the new group.
Once done Go to rules and search for that alert. You may get many alerts of the same name but classes may represent different. Any ways select any one among them.
And right click and select the options as per the below screen shot highlighted in RED.
Once you have selected "For objects of another class" Select the group you created and click ok. Once you do it you will get the below window.
As per the below screen shot change the value to False (It will be true by default). As per the below screen shot and click ok and you are done.

Using gateway'd URLs in JSP custom tag attributes

Hello,
I am running Plumtree G6 using a gateway prefix to gateway Javascript from a remote server. I have recently discovered, thanks to people's help on the forum here, that in certain cases, you need to wrap a URL in a pt:url tag in order for Plumtree to recognize it as a URL that has to be gateway'd (i.e. a URL inside of a Javascript function).
However, I have a custom tag that contains a contextPath attribute. This custom tag then includes other XML files that get included in the final page that is displayed. I am passing this value as my contextPath:
<mytag:body sessionName="mysession" campusName="SampleCampus" contextPath="<pt:url pt:href='http://localhost:7021/application/scripts' xmlns:pt='http://www.plumtree.com/xmlschemas/ptui/'/>"/>
However, in the resulting content that is created from this custom tag, the contextPath value is still set to <pt:url pt:href=......./>, and not the actual gateway'd URL. I would have thought that Plumtree would have recognized and gateway'd this URL before it got substituted in the custom tag.
Does anyone have any thoughts on how to get around a problem like this? One thought I had was to get ahold of the gateway URL value and pass that value directly in my contextPath attribute. Is it possible to get that gateway value, or is there a better solution here?
Thanks again for any help you can provide.

Chris,
I added your code, changed the portlet's web service to send a login token for this portlet, and was then getting some ClassNotFoundExceptions related to Axis classes. So, I went and added all of the jar files from the devkit's lib directory (i.e. plumtree\ptedk\5.3\devkit\WEB-INF\lib), recompiled, and those errors went away. But, now I see the following error:

Display content items into custom remote portlets

Hi, I need to dinamically display content server items in a custom portlet, using the EDK, but I did not find any way to get this result. Is it poossible to get an object (in my case a published content item) within an ObjectManager and display it's content (in our case a simple HTML content).
I need to do this because whe have to format the home page of the portal in order to display the first half in three columns and the second half in two columns and we are trying to do this implementing a custom portlet (in the content canvas area) containing a three columns table displaying each a different content item.
Thank you.

There are basically two ways that I have done to open the content item editor.1) From a content presentation template you would call a JavaScript function like:
<script>
function edit_article$$TOKEN$$() {
var width = 700;
var height = 527;
var left;
var top;
left = window.screenLeft + 10;
top = window.screenTop - 30;
if ( (left + width/2) > screen.availWidth ||
(top + width/2) > screen.availHeight ) {
left = 0;
top = 0;
var params = "height=" + height + ",width=" + width + ",left=" + left + ",top=" + top + ",screenX=" + left + ",screenY=" + top + "toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1";
window.open("<pcs:value expr='pcs_location'></pcs:value>/published_tools/content_item.jsp?ciid=<pcs:value expr='pcs_id'></pcs:value>&title=ContentItemEditArticleTitle", '', params);
</script>
2) The other way is using the content Item API. You get the editor url from the content item, which you already have. Now what you are doing below is almost correct. The importance of the pt:objectid is crucial. Take a look at the web docs on Plumtree ([url[/url]http://www.plumtree.com/edoc/Enterprise_Web_Development_Documentation.htm) under portlets/adaptive portlets/transformer tags/links. So the reason yours is not working is that you are missing some ptargs. The pt:objectid needs to be the objected of the "Content Administrator" portlet. This is for 2 reasons. One is so that you get the correct PTargs and the second is that it will use the basic auth information stored in its web service. So if your objectid of the portlet was 201 then it would look like this:
lblHref.Text = "<pt:gatewayLink xmlns:pt='http://www.plumtree.com/xmlschemas/ptui/'pt:ObjectID='201' pt:href=\""+ url + "\" target='TinyURL' onclick=window.top.open('','TinyURL'," + WindowOpenParams + ");>"+myContentItem.Name + "</pt:gatewayLink>";

Error Deploying Custom Profile WS

I get the following error whenn deploying my custom PWS. I can see the Submission page. I encounter the error after clicking submit. I am using EDK 5.1 on Tomcat 4.1.30 and Portal 5.0.4. I have copied the class files in the EDK classes directory. Sounds like a classpath setup problem. I am unsure of where to set the classpath for the 5.1 DeployServlet.
My sample PWS used to deploy fine on EDK 5.0.2, I think. I've noticed that the DeploySErvlet URL has changed. Does anyone know what are the steps to be followed to deploy WS on EDK 5.1.
ClassNotFoundExceptionClass not found: com.staples.portal.remote.pws.StaplesPSPWSAny help would be greatly appreciated.

Custom PWS (Java) against Oracle

We are planning on developing a custom PWS in Java against an Oracle database (Peoplesoft).
We will be deploying Websphere App Server 5.1 with EDK 5.1 (Java) on the remote (portlet/web service) server on the Windows platform.
Is there any peference/recommendation as to which JDBC driver(Data Direct driver, type etc.) , I should use to access the Oracle database from teh custom PWS? Does anyone forsee any issues with this platform and/or Oracle database access on the remote application server.
I'd appreciate any JDBC driver specification recommendation and any other insights into this.
Thanks and regards.

Try this (refers to assignment service, but I believe classpath is the same):
32.3.2.3 How to Deploy a Custom Assignment ServiceTo deploy a custom assignment service:
1.Use one of the following methods to make an assignment service implementation class and its related classes available in the class path of Oracle BPEL Process Manager:
◦Load your classes in SCA-INF/classes directly or SCA-INF/lib as a JAR.
◦Change the Oracle BPEL Process Manager shared library to include your JAR files.
Note:
◦You cannot create different versions of the assignment service for use in different BPEL processes unless you change package names or class names.
◦Java classes and JAR files in the suitcase are not available in the class path and therefore cannot be used as a deployment model for the assignment service.
◦The steps must be repeated for each node in a cluster.

Custom activity rights creation methodology....

The Activity Manager allow creating custom activity rights that can be used in customs portlets for specific activity related to the purpose of the portlet:
We plan to develop a lot of portlets using specific custom activity rights (for example Edit_Events, Edit_No_Conformity etc...). The challenge is to build a good set of customs activity rights.
Example: The manager group can edit the Events form but cannot edit the Non-conformity form witch are part of a custom portlet functionnalities.... The Everybody group can create Events but cannot create Non-conformity elements etc...
Does anybody have a methodology or experience or best practices concerning the creation (and use) of custom activity rights in portlets ???
Thanks
Georges SzczypiorskiQIT Fer et TitaneA business unit of the Rio Tinto group

We are currently going down this road right now. From what I have learned an Activity Right (AR) can only be added on the group level but is available through the EDK on portlets residing in either the MY PAGE or COMMUNITY level. However, there is no grouping available for AR's (at least not in PT5) therefor all AR's should be named uniquely. You do not, based on my experiences, need to name your URI's with the URI-type notation. Just keep them unique to the portlet that will consume it. 'Edit_Event' is a little too generic. We use something like 'Widget_Edit_Event'.
Consider using the Community Access Levels. They will not be available through the EDK for portlets existing on MY PAGE's but can be associated on the user level as well as the group level (I think). I am still investigating this solution but the out-of-the-box access levels may be what you are looking for.

"a custom control callback raised an exception"

Hello all,
yes, there are several posts about this error message, but they are all pretty old (<2009) and the solutions didn't seem to work, so I'm starting a new thread.
I installed 2013sp1 last week and removed 8.5, 2010 and 2012 this morning. And now one of my projects won't compile. Other projects aren't impacted (I tested about 10 in two different workspaces).
When I compile, I get a popup box with "a custom control callback raised an exception" and it comes back as soon as I click it. I have to kill CVI. It's a project that compiled cleanly with CVI2012 (no warnings). I can open and save the UIR files with CVI2013, no problem. I also deleted the cws file, no change.
I generated a debug log (cleaned up a bit):

Hello and thank you for looking into this.
Indeed, I disabled the HTML generation and it compiled fine. I also tried XML and it works, although I don't know what to do with the resulting XML file.
Here's a code sample showing how I use the triple slash comments, but this is not an example that crashes. I'm trying to pin it down but it's a big interdependant project, so I can't remove pieces easily:
/// HIFN Write to USB. Use the USB_WRITE shortcut macro instead
/// HIPAR Endpoint / USB endpoint
/// ARRAY Data
/// HIPAR Data / Array to write
/// HIPAR Count / Number of bytes to write
/// OUT ErrorMsg
/// HIPAR ErrorMsg / Possible return error message
/// HIPAR FunctionName / For debugging
/// HIPAR Line / Line number for debugging
static int UsbWrite(int Endpoint, char Data[], int Count, char *ErrorMsg, const char *FunctionName, const int Line) {

How to configure UDDI Server with in EDK with a 4.5WS?

I'm trying to develop a crawler service using EDK5.0.1 with a 4.5ws portal.
To do this job, I have to deploy and coufigure a UDDI Server which is a requirement for services in 4.5ws.
After develping and deploying a crawler service, I created gadget server in the 4.5ws portal, and tried to add remote data source, but the popup window for datasource seems not to be able to find the crawler service and showed 'Empty Gadget Server'.
I think I set up the uddi server with a wrong way, but I don't know what I have to do more to set a uddi server.
Actually, after developing crawler service and sci service, I deployed these with DeployServlet which is a deploy toolkit offered by EDK.
With this deploying result, I modified the uddi.xml file and put that file into c:\program files\Plumtree\ptedk\5.0\devkit\config\java\uddi folder.
Is there any things to set for uddi server?
Can anybody provide me any advise on this?
Any help would be appricated.

The UDDI is used with web services in 4.5x. This is best described as a phone book of URLS for any web services installed in that machine. Those URLS will then point to the individual web services.
In 5.0 the UDDI server is not needed since it is replaced with the "Remote Server" and "Web Services" tabs. HOw to setup a UDDI with TOMCAT
UDDI can be setup to run with TOMCAT and I believe this is the only one provided in the EDK installer in the ptedk\5.0\devkit\java directory
Here's a little TOMCAT information. Web applications are deployed in a folder called "webapp". This case, we have a uddi server installed and it's in a folder called "uddi". So, our file structure for the UDDI server looks like: /webapp - tomcats web application folder /uddi - the uddi application /WEB-INF - standard WEB-INF directory stores java classes, jars and any descriptor files. server-config.wsdd - this is the web service descriptor file for this uddi server - provided by plumtree web.xml - this is the web.xml descriptor file for how the web services in this application will be loaded and run - provided by plumtree /lib - contains the jar files for the uddi server - provided by plumtree The server-config.wsdd file should be the only item that the user needs to modify. Within the file (XML based), there should be the following tag:  <service name="MessageService" provider="java:MSG" style="message"> <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="find_tModel find_business find_binding"/> <parameter name="className" value="com.plumtree.remote.uddi.UDDIServer"/>  <parameter name="baseUrl" value="http://rickc-loaner:81/ntcws/"/>  <parameter name="isDotNet" value="true"/>   <parameter name="crawlerName" value="NT File CWS"/>  <parameter name="authName" value=""/>  <parameter name="documentProviderRpc" value="DocumentProviderSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="containerProviderRpc" value="ContainerProviderSoapPort"/>   <parameter name="sciDataSourceRpc" value="SciSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="sciCrawlRpc" value="SciSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="sciCardRpc" value=""/>   <parameter name="authProvider" value=""/>  <parameter name="syncProvider" value=""/>  <parameter name="authSci" value=""/>  <parameter name="documentProviderDoclit" value="documentprovidersoapbinding.asmx"/>  <parameter name="containerProviderDoclit" value="containerprovidersoapbinding.asmx"/>   <parameter name="sciDataSourceDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/>  <parameter name="sciCrawlDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/>  <parameter name="sciCardDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/> </service> This tag contains the information that will be specific to the user's deployment of the web service (CWS or AWS).First off: <parameter name="baseUrl" value="http://machinename:81/ntcws/"/>
This is the location of the web server that has the target web service installed. THIS CANNOT BE "localhost". This has to be a resolvable machine name or IP address. In 5.0 this is the Remote Web Service settings. Second, you need to set the type of web service.  <parameter name="isDotNet" value="true"/> If your app server hosting the web service is dotnet, you need to set this to "true". This is equivalent to the Document encoding setting in 5.0. .NET supports Document/Literal incoding instead of RPC for Java. Third, name your web services. This is the name that will display in the drop down list in 4.5WS when you decide to create a remote data source.  <parameter name="crawlerName" value="NT File CWS"/>  <parameter name="authName" value=""/> This is the web service name property when you create a new web service in 5.0. Next are the configuration settings for your particular web service:  <parameter name="documentProviderRpc" value="DocumentProviderSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="containerProviderRpc" value="ContainerProviderSoapPort"/>   <parameter name="sciDataSourceRpc" value="SciSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="sciCrawlRpc" value="SciSoapPort"/>  <parameter name="sciCardRpc" value=""/>   <parameter name="authProvider" value=""/>  <parameter name="syncProvider" value=""/>  <parameter name="authSci" value=""/>  <parameter name="documentProviderDoclit" value="documentprovidersoapbinding.asmx"/>  <parameter name="containerProviderDoclit" value="containerprovidersoapbinding.asmx"/>   <parameter name="sciDataSourceDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/>  <parameter name="sciCrawlDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/>  <parameter name="sciCardDoclit" value="xuiservice.asmx"/> These are equivalent to setting the Document provider URL, Container Provider URL, Remote UI URL etc etc that are in 5.0 web services settings. Once you have installed the UDDI server, and started TOMCAT, you should be able to hit the services list at:http://machinewithuddi:8080/uddi/services This will become your Remote Gadget Server URL and you should be good to go!!

CWS not creating folders/subfolders in Plumtree

Hi,
We are in the process of developing CWS for LiveLink using EDK 5.0.2. We would like the crawler to be able to mirror Livelink's folder structure in Plumtree. But I believe due to Issue #21434 , the crawler cannot programmatically create the folder /sub-folders. We are able to crawl the documents that are in the folders/subfolders.Is there a programmatic work-around for this ?
Thanks in advance.
Mihir

It's unnecessary to call back to the portal API for any of this information, and undesirable since it is relatively inefficient.
First regarding mirroring: you should simply have each instance of you IContainer objects return the array of immediate child objects. Then, the portal user simply needs to select "mirror folder hierarchy" and the portal will automatically mirror your underlying folder structure.
Secondly, regarding knowing the parent when getChildContainers is called: If you step back and look at how IContainerProvider and IContainer work together, this is easy:
The portal will call IContainerProvider.AttachToContainer() for every folder/container, passing in the "containerLocation" of your parent (or current) folder. At this point, you usually will (and probably should) create a new instance of your IContainer class, passing the "containerLocation" on to the initializer method of IContainer. IContainer should save this value in an instance variable inside the object.
Later on, the portal will call IContainer.getChildContainers() on this instance of IContainer. This method ought to look up the value of the instance variable and then use that to get access to the folder in the backend system. It should then be able to easily get a list of the immediate children of that folder, and return them in the array of ChildContainers.
I don't know that much about Livelink, but the "containerLocation" will be some value that allows your code to easily look up and get access to the underlying container in the backend system. For example, it may be a path, or an inode number, or some other key like that.
Anyway, once you understand how this works, you'll see that the portal then (eventually---exactly when and in what order is undefined) calls IContainerProvider.AttachToContainer() for each of the ChildContainers in the array, passing in the same "containerLocation" value as your code returned in the array, and the process continues recursively. (The very first top-level crawl gets its location from the crawler configuration, which is set by the user.)

Changing colors/style sheets with custom header portlets?

We would like write a completely custom header portlet (a standard portlet that is designated as a header, notusing the branding server), but I can't seem to find a way to change the style sheets in subportals when I do this.
Am I missing something? Do you have to use the branding engine to control style sheets in subportals, or is there another way?

The way Branding accomplishes what you're looking for is by setting a portlet setting called "Portal-Style" on the header portlet using the EDK. This setting can be set either as an Admin level or CommunityPortlet level setting. When the portal loads a page with a header, it will check to see if the header has this preference set (first on the CommunityPortlet level, if the header is on a community, and then on the Admin level). If so, the portal will cause everything to use the stylesheet specified in the setting value.
The setting value is the name of the stylesheet. For example, if you wished every page displaying the header to be orange, you could set the "Portal-Style" Admin setting on the portlet to a value of "mainstyle17", the orange-themed stylesheet.
Perhaps I'm not setting the preference properly. Sniffing the HTTP headers between the gadget and portal servers, I do see:
[HTTP_CSP_GLOBAL_GADGET_PREF] => Portal-Style=mainstyle17
(I also tried it with Portal%u002DStyle, but neither works)
The remote server header portlet doesn't seem to be picking up the fact that there is an admin pref to override the main page's stylesheet. Did I create the portlet wrong, or am I setting the preference incorrectly, or what? Thanks

ColdFusion & EDK

I am playing with using the Java EDK within ColdFusion. I have gotten the EDK object insatiated, but am having trouble getting the expected result from a method call. The following code shows what I am trying to do ...
<cfobject action="create" type="java" class="com.plumtree.remote.portlet.IPortletRequest" name="ipRequest">
<cfoutput>#ipRequest.getClassID()#</cfoutput>
Running this code within a portlet throws a generic 500 error. When I add in a dump command (which basically just dumps the structure of the object including a list methods and properties), I get a list of values that are all undefined.
AggregationModeClassIDCommunityIDGatewayedHostPageURIImageServerURIInCommunityLoginTokenPageIDPortalUUIDPortletIDPortletModeProtocolVersionRemoteAPIEndpointReturnURIStylesheetURITimeZoneUserInterface
Does anybody know ColdFusion or the EDK enough to give me a hint what is going on here? First, in this dump, I am not seeing the getClassID() method that I expected to see. Second, why are all of the properties coming back 'undefined'? Is there something special I need to do to get the edk to 'work'?
Thanks for any pointers.-- Jeff
