Discoverer in Portal

I have tried to publish a discoverer workbook and worksheet through Portal with no success. I have built the Discoverer portlet provider, but when I go to edit the worksheets or list of workbooks, I do not get a list of available Discovere workbooks. Any suggestions on how I get my existing workbooks to show in the drop down lists?

The CORBA Error is definitely Discoverer specific. It could be several causes..the Object Activation Daemon (OAD) is overloaded, a misconfiguration, etc.
You mentioned you tested the worksheet with Discoverer Plus; however, the Discoverer Portlet Provider uses the Discoverer Viewer (servlet) as the underlying technology.
I would suggest the following:
1.) Test with Viewer
2.) We do have the capability to turn on some diagnostic tracing via the configuration.xml file
Try this:
· Stop Oracle HTTP Server (Apache)(via EM or $ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl stop ct ohs)
· Stop Oracle Discoverer Services
· Delete (or copy and delete if you want a backup) the OHS error_log, access_log and the OC4J Discoverer application.log
(<Middle-Tier OH>/j2ee/OC4J_BI_Forms/application-deployments/discoverer/OC4J_BI_Forms_default_island_1/application.log)
· Enable the highest level of logging in the httpd.conf (For example: httpd.conf = LogLevel debug)
· Enable any further Diagnostics for Discoverer Plus/Viewer per: Note. 209582.1 Oracle Discoverer Complete Diagnostics as directed by Oracle Support
Setup additional logging for Discoverer Viewer:
Edit:
<$Middle-Tier OH>/j2ee/OC4J_BI_Forms/applications/discoverer/web/WEB-INF/configuration.xml
Add the logkey parameters like this example:

<server use_log_file="true" logkeys="disco.portlet.debug"/>


· Start Oracle HTTP Server (Apache) (via EM or dcmctl)
· Start Oracle Discoverer Services
· Immediately reproduce the issue
Unfortunately, this is a best efforts forum, so...
3.) you may want to log a Service Request with Oracle Support to help evaluate the diagnostics

Steve.

Install Discoverer AND Portal in the same Middletier Instance

Hallo,
when installing AS 10.1.2 i have several install options.
When choosing BI / Discoverer i have no Portal in the middletier after the installation finished.
I could install another middletier instance with using the portal option but i want to have Portal installed as component in the existing middletier.
How can i achive this ? (install a single componant into an existing middletier)
Thanks,
Jochen

You cannot do that. You have to do a fresh install of 10.1.2.0.2 and choose Business Intelligence and Forms install type. This install type provides you the ability to install both Discoverer and Portal in the same Oracle Home. Seems like you installed Discoverer from BI CD, which gives you the ability to just install Discoverer. Instead use the EE download or Oracle Application Server main CDs from the CD pack.

Oracle Discoverer 4i (portal db - oracle 8i) connectivity issue with 11g database

Hi All
We have oracle discoverer 4i with portal db (oracle 8i).
We connect to the external databases using db links in the portal db and the reports will use the db link to retrieve the data from views in the external databases.
External databases we were connecting is oracle 10g version and now we have upgraded these databases to 11g version.
Now i have a created a new db link to this 11g database and i have created a new EUL in portal to connect to this 11g database.
But when i try to create a report using the discoverer from this new EUL after login to the discoverer we get a "cannot connect to database" error.
We have all the necesscary privilege to the user and the new database link works perfectly fine. (when we try to query directly using SQL plus from portal database using this db link the query works perfectly fine).
Im not sure if this is a compatibility issue in connecting from oracle disc 4i to a 11g database.
Can any one advise if this is the case and if there is any workaround for this?
Regards,
Raj

Are you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?

integrate Oracle Discoverer and Oracle Portal.
Do you know how to do it?
Do you have any walktrough?
Thank you very much,

Discoverer within Portal

I am trying to do an automatic login into discoverer from an application. THe only way to achieve this is to use discoverer within a portal. Can any one explain me or point me to any documents as to how this can be achieved. I am trying to make use of the SSO functionality of Portal.
Thanks
gt

Hi
- Log in as Portal Admin
- Home page, 2nd tab, 'Admin'
- 'Administer External Applications'
- Create a new External Application
- Name = 'Oracle Discoverer Viewer'
- URL = 'http://yournode/discoverer4i/viewer'
- Field for user = 'us'
- Field for password = 'pw'
- Additional fields
Depends on what you need, I chose
tnsname and language:
- Fieldname = 'db', Value = 'mydb'
- Fieldname = 'nlsl' Value = 'de-ch'
The various parameters are described in the
Disco 4i Config-Guide, '4.3 Discoverer Viewer URL arguments'.
Then the individual user has to include the portlet 'external applications' and activate the newly created entry...
Hope that helps
Regards
Tino

Problem in showing worksheet of discoverer in portal

Hi All,
I have created a worksheet in an user called BI.
I have logged into Portal using user orcladmin.
I have registered the portal provider.
I have added the portlet in the portal page.
I can see the public connect in the edit page.
When i click next in the edit page it shows me the user and share node.
I click the user node it shows me the list of user.
When i click the user BI it show me an error as "An error occurred while handling the request in the controller."
I am not able to see the workbook.
Pls help me.

The problems with the portlet provider. Edit it and do the following:
Uncheck "Web provider in same cookie domain as the portal" and also for the User/Session Information, choose either "Always" or "Once per user session" NOT "never".
Its bug no 4118067 in metalink, the above is a workaround!!

Setting up Discoverer in Portal for 9iAS 1.0.2.2

Hi,
Can someone point me in the direction of some documentation on deploying the Discoverer portlet?
I have implemented 9iAS 1.0.2.2
Thanks ,
Matmas

If you have e-business suite then it's likely you have Oracle support too.
I'd give them a call to get hold of the zip file you are after. I can't locate it anywhere on our site for you to download.

Hi there,
Have you applied any patches to 9ias since it was first installed? We had the same problem and had to apply a couple of patches to get the portlets working.
1. Apply the 9.0.2.53.16 one-off patch for Oracle 9iAS Discoverer which takes Discoverer up to 9.0.2.53.16. This patch appears to be password protected and you need to get someone at Oracle support to give you a password.
2. Apply the Discoverer Portlet Provider: 9.0.2.53.00c patch (patch no. 2595444) which gives you a new discportal.xsl file that actually works. It's this second step that solves your problem but you need to do step 1 before this. This is password protected as well.
3. As you've upgraded Disco on the server to 9.0.2.53, you'll need to upgrade Disco Admin & Desktop within your 9iDS installation using patch no. 2555265. This is because Disco 9.0.2.53 uses an upgraded EUL that Disco Admin & Desktop need to be patched to use.
This was the course of action Oracle support advised us about nine months ago. Of course they may have released a further patch to Disco that does 1 & 2 in one go, but we regularly carry out steps 1 and 2 on servers we use and we can use the Disco portlets successfully.
Hope this helps

How to setup discoverer to work with portal in future

Hi,
I have to setup the environment for a discoverer 10g R2 based reporting application.
The application is supposed to display reports on the portal that is hosted on Oracle 10g AS.
I started with installation of Oracle 10g R2 DB server. I have the Oracle BI suite 10g , Oracle 10g AS, Oracle 10g Portal etc with me.
Can someone guide me as to how should I proceed in the installation step-wise so as the repoting application can be hooked on to the AS and displayed in portal.
The slight catch here is there is a separate team working on developing the portal.
I need to know what is to be done so that there is a smooth merger of discoverer with the portal.
Thanks
Goga

Hi
The interaction between Discoverer and Portal takes place after you have installed the full-blown application server. Stand-alone Discoverer cannot be made to hook into Portal.
When you install the full application server you need an infrastructure database. You either do this manually by inserting the repository components into an existing database or you use the seeded database that comes with the install. Personally, I prefer the seeded approach.
After you have installed the infrastructure you run the installer a second time and install the middle tier. While you can install the infrastructure and middle components onto the same machine, performance is better if you use different machines. However, if you are only trying to test things out, doing all of this on one machine would be ok.
After you have got your middle tier components installed (Discoverer and Portal), make sure they are working. For Discoverer you will need to have an EUL. For Portal you only need to be able to connect to it.
Next, and only now comes the link between Discoverer and Portal. All you need to do is tell Portal that the link is to be enabled. This is called creating a portlet provider.
To create a portlet provider for Discoverer follow this workflow:
1. Connect to Portal as Portal user
2. On the top right, click the Administer tab
3. You will see three further tabs, this time on the left, called Portal, Portlets and Database
4. Click the Portlets tab
5. Locate the Remote Providers box on the top right hand side
6. Click Register a Provider
7. In Provider Information enter the following:
a) a name - for example Discoverer
b) a Display name - for example Discoverer
c) Timeout - for example 30 seconds
d) Timeout message - for example Please try again later
e) In implementation Stype select Web
f) Click the Next button
8. In General Properties enter the following:
a) In URL type http://hostname:port/discoverer/portletprovider
Eg. http://server1.learndiscoverer.com:7778/discoverer/portletprovider
You may need to omit the port on some systems so that it would look like this:
http://server1.learndiscoverer.com/discoverer/portletprovider
Note: type discoverer/portletprovider as stated
If you do need a port and are unsure as to which port number to enter follow this workflow:
i) Launch a second browser window
ii) Type http://hosntame:1811 (or whatever is the AS Control port on your system) and press Enter
iii) In username enter ias_admin and the associated password
iv) When authenticated, you will see the Farm for your infrastructure and mid tier
v) Cick on the mid tier instance (you may need to enter your ias_admin username and password again)
vi) Click the Ports link alongside the word Home at the top of the screen
vii) Note the port number for your HTTP Server Listen(non-SSL) port
viii) Close AS Control and go back to the portlet provider setup
b) Check the box Web provider in same cookie domain as the portal
c) Leave other defaults as they are and scroll down to section called User/Session Information
d) In User/Session Information check User and specify that the frequency should be Once per user session
e) Click the Next button
8. In Grant Access leave this alone and click the Finish button
9. If you get a warning about the cookie domain click the OK button
10. Exit Portal
You have now successfully created a portlet provider for Discoverer
To test that this is working enter one og these in your browser window:
If using ports:
http://hostname:port/discoverer/portletprovider
If not using ports:
http://hostname/discoverer/portletprovider
The system should respond with Congratulations! You have successfully reached your Provider's Test Page
Does this help?

AS 10g SE now includes Reports and Discoverer?

I've read some articles about the "new" AS that it has been "re-packaged" (licensewise) and that the BI stuff like Reports and Discoverer are included in the Std Ed. Also (in the FAQ I think) that some EE stuff has been moved "down" to SE - sounds promising! But I have not been able to verify this... Anyone out there?

I urge Oracle do the same for Discoverer.
We have been using Discoverer since 3i. This year, we had some people on 3i still and some on 4i. We went through the conversion to 4i and no one is using 3i at all now. These people are very used to how Discoverer works. They are used to using database authentication and security to workbooks.
The Infrastructure can store connection information for each user. By default, it stores connection information in cookies on the user's machine but you can configure the Infrastructure to store this data for you. The Infrastructure also stores metadata for Discoverer Portlets (Portal required).
So that is it. If you are not using Portal nor care about storing connection information in a database, then why even have the Infrastructure for Discoverer? Just like Reports and Forms, if you aren't using SSO or Portal, there is no need for the Infrastructure and Oracle should provide an installer to let you install Discoverer without having the Infrastructure sitting there.
Here is the doc on Metalink that explains what the Infrastructure does with Discoverer 9i.
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=224871.1
I also spoke with John Entenmann at ODTUG in Miami this year and asked him if Discoverer works and is supported in an install without the Infrastructure. He agreed that if you are not using Portal or SSO, you don't need the Infrastructure with Discoverer 9i.
Now Oracle needs to support Discoverer customers in the same way they are going to support Forms and Reports customers by providing a more reasonable installer that doesn't require the Infrastructure to be installed first.

I had a similar problem, first I made sure my discover connections worked by connecting to discover through IAS. Then when I registered the discoverer in portal, it timed out the first couple of times. I then refreshed the browser window a couple of times and it worked.

Can't start the web site of Reports Services

Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
After installation of the 9iAS, can't start the web site of
Reports Services
and Form Services from the URL listed in the postinstallation
guide using
default port no 1950. The dev60html and devdem60/demo
directories are not
existing, the runrep.htm and runform.htm files are in the
directory
tools/web60/html. I also tried to replace the dev60html with
tools/web60/html
in the URL but it won't work.
During the installation the discoverer and portal tools failed,
the portal
hanged at 100%, and the discoverer didn't install the util
directory. But we
can login to the portal from the URL.
Below is the message when I start from the command line: I am
not sure if it is
working.

Hi,
Dumb question : is one of your server listening on port 7001 ? If not, should it ?
What is the expected behavior ? A managed trying to connect to the admin server ?
Check the value for ADMIN_URL value, set in the startManagedServer.sh or cmd.
Another dumb question : do you have a firewall ?

Downgrading from JDK 1.5.x to JDK 1.4.x

Hi there,
I hope someone helps me with an issue:
I developed a web app using JDev 10.1.3.3 using the JDK 1.5 included with JDev.
As we are now faced with the fact that this app has to run on an OAS 10.1.2, which to my knowledge uses JDK 1.4.x I have to downgrade from JDK1.5.x->1.4.x.
The technologies that I used are Toplink, EJB 3.0 Session Bean and ADF Faces for the UI layer.
I already downloaded and installed JDK 1.4.2_15 from Sun and changed the default JDK from 1.5.x in JDeveloper to use 1.4.2_15. When I recompiled my Model Project, as excected, I got the following compilation errors on my Bean Class java source file:
Error(29,1): errorIllegalCharacter
Error(29,2): 'class', 'interface', or 'enum' expected
on the same line where I had the EJB 3.0 annotation as follows:
@Stateless(name = "NordPublicFacade")
and also on my Local Interface source:
Error(22,1): errorIllegalCharacter
Error(22,2): 'class', 'interface', or 'enum' expected
for the line:
@Local
OK, I know that these annotations/injections(or whatever they're called) are new features of EJB 3.0 and can only be used with JDK 1.5.
I also have red underlines in some facade methods where generics are used for Toplink Named Queries (please remember this is generated code) so for example:
List<CompanyStructure> findAllCompanyStructure();
On my ViewController project (the UI project) I get the following errors:
refresh = false;
Error(37,17): operator = not applicable to class java.lang.Boolean and boolean
JSFUtils.setManagedBeanValue(ctx,"userState.refresh",true);
Error(92,7): method setManagedBeanValue(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.String, boolean) not found in class NordMaintApp.view.util.JSFUtils
My questions
1) What's the best way to go about downgrading?
a) Should I create a new EJB 2.x Session Bean or should I use the Java Service Facade (which I hope creates a POJO and therefore is EJB version independant or not?)
b) Is it necessary to do anything special to the Toplink classes?
2) What are the errors that I get in my ViewController project ?
Thanks In Advance

Hi again Shay and THANK YOU!
We simply downloaded OC4J 10.1.3 & installed it (all we had to do is simply unzip it) in a separate directory on its own, on the SAME Server as OAS (10.1.2.02 EE, which includes Discoverer and Portal) AND IT WORKED !
We're now back on using JD 10.1.3 with all its new features etc etc. We even downloaded JDK1.5 and got OC4J working with this JDK WITHOUT, of course, affecting our OAS 10.1.2 installation which works with JDK1.4.2. That woudn't have been possible without your feedback.
It's just that looking at that reference you gave me, I thought that I would have to create a separate instance on the OAS 10.1.2 installation and install 10.1.3 on that one. But eventually it was so much simpler than that. And the memory overhead of OC4J is not that much.
I could create a simple ADF JSF page which just displays data from a table and it's OK!
I could deploy it just fine, though I found out that I have to deploy the ADF Runtimes first; OC4J doesn't come with them. Other than that, it was just fine!
As I said, I'm now using ADF JSF pages for my front-end and ADF BC for my back end; it's so much easier than using Toplink directly.
Only one problem left though (sorry to bother you like that):
In one of the previous emails you mentioned it might be better to use Webcenter for ADF Faces. Unfortunately we cannot go with this option I'm afraid, because we already have an existing portal running on the Oracle Portal that's already included with our OAS 10.1.2.02. I assume that the Oracle Portal's version is also 10.1.2.02. Can I deploy ADF JSF faces as a portlet on this one ? I realise that JDev 10.1.3 comes with some wizards to do this and it seems that I have 2 options: Oracle PDK-Java Portlets or JSR-168 based portlets. I just want whichever one will allow me to have my ADF JSF pages deployed as Portlets on OP 10.1.2.02, so that it can be integrated into any one of the exisiting Portal pages that a colleague of mine already developed (and are waiting for my pages to finish, which currently, when called from a link inside a Portal page displays it in a new page and the user can get back to the Portal page by clicking on the browser's back button). I realise that If I have the JSF page as a portlet, it will then be possible to be integrated into an existing page, that is, have my page to occupy it's own region in a Portal's page.
Once again, Thanks for your help and Thanks In Advance.
R,
G.P.
