Discoverer Portlet provider Register with Oracle AS Portal

Hi All,
I am trying to register the Discoverer portlet provider with Oracle AS Portal. I could able to launch the portal homepage successfully by giving the following url
http://<host.domain>:<port>/pls/portal
But, when I clicking the "login" to login it is giving me an error...
I also ensured that OssoIPCheck parameter to be off in mod_osso.conf file.
Please let me any configuration I need to do as part of this registeration. Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Venkat

Hi Michael,
Thanks a lot for the prompt response. Actually we are going to provide an Oracle BI solution using OWB, Discoverer, Oracle 10g to one of our clients. And we personally feel that using Oracle 10g AS will prevent many unexpected problems in the application.
But the decision of choosing the portal tool is pending at the clients side and we need to help them out with the better options.
they are also looking for IBM websphere, and IBM has said that they have a portlet factory builder that helps portal to integrate with any other portlets.
Is it so that the ability to integrate any kind of portlet lies with the portal independent of the kind of portlet?
In our case... does it mean that IBM portal can integrate the discoverer portlet even if Discoverer does'nt provide for integration with non-Oracle portal?

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.

Discoverer Portlet Provider Error

Good day. I would like to seek anyone's assitance with the errors encountered below when trying to manipulate Discoverer Portlet Provider through Oracle Portal:
1. While trying to view Discoverer Portlet Workbook or Worksheet:
"The portlet has not been defined. The publisher must define the portlet by clicking on Edit Defaults for the portlet on the edit mode of this page. Please contact the publisher of this page."
2. While trying to delete Discoverer Portlet Provider:
"The page cannot be displayed" error from Internet Explorer.
3. While trying to deregister Discoverer Portlet Provider:
"The provider could not be contacted, do you still want to delete provider "DISCO_DATAMART_PROVIDER"?
The provider could not be contacted and its deregistration function was not initiated. Deleting the provider will remove it from the portal. Additional action may be necessary by the provider to remedy the failure to call its deregistration function."
Here's our infrastructure versions:
Portal version 9.0.2.2.22
Discoverer Version Release 2 (9.0.2.53)
Previously, the highest release of patchset was installed in our machine but I've reverted it back to a lower patchset on both cases, same error was encountered for the above-mentioned.
We've successfully registered discoverer portletprovider and created a public connection via "General Discoverer" in OEM. And Discoverer Viewer / Plus are working properly.
I think this problem has been posted in metalink and some other sites but no definite answer yet (as far as I've read).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

It seems wherever section I post this I can't get any solution. I was instructed by someone in this forum to post this in the discoverer section. Up to now, no replies yet. I already raised a TAR for this and still no answer. I've researched through metalink and so many of us have this problem. Attention Oracle, we really need your assistance for this product of yours. Please help us out.

Virtual Host change doesnt update discoverer portlet provider image locatio

We have recently created a virtual host for our oracle portal. Original was CUKPORTAL.cseu.root.local and the new virtual hosts created were bi.portal.uk (bi tier) my.portal.uk and sso.portal.uk (for IMT).
All pages, images , portlets were updated to reflect the new URL's except for the discoverer portlet provider. Actually , it works fine except for the lcoation of the portlets reference to the original icons for the list of worksheets portlet. When we see the page source behind the html page where the portlet is on , I can see that the images (like the expand workbook image) , still reference the old URL ie CUKPORTAL.cseu.root.local:7780.....etc
We have re-registered the provider with the new URL , ie bi.portal.uk:7779 etc but although the portlets can be called and placed in pages , the images do not appear as a result of the location to the images.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is the last problem before we go live.

Hi,
Its good that u pasted the complete log file. In your environment you have to run this upgrade tool only once from any of the middle tier.
And with respect to your error that u got in precheck is quite simple. All u have to do is just run this script from by connecting to portal schema using sqlplus.
Run dropupg.sql
Location-------- /raid/product/OraHome_1/upgrade/temp/portal/prechktmp/dropupg.sql
Later you re-run the upgrade tool and let me know the status.
Good luck

No transport provider registered with ID: email

Hello,
We are running Oracle Service Bus 11.1 on WebLogic Server 10.3.6.0, which runs on Linux.
We are trying to send SLA alerts through email, but we are receiving the following error:
Internal error occured in OSBConsole : No transport provider registered with ID: email
Checking the Deployment section on the WLS Console, I can see that the Email Transport Provider is Active and OK (with a green check mark) in the in the Health column.
Any ideas what is going on here, and how I can register the Email Transport Provider?
Appreciate the help,

Do you see any other exceptions when you start the servers and when you try to generate an email alert?

Using Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle E-Business Suite 11i

Hi,
We have installed 11.5.10.2 on Linux, and developer need to use Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle EBS 11i.
I have downloade the latest veriosn for Discoverer and othe two patches Patchset 4960210 and Patch 5985072 .
After these steps do i need to Install the Oracle Application Server 10g to use Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle EBS 11i.
Can some one pls guide me on this...
Thanks,

But i have not uderstood the where to install the Oracle Application Server 10g on Oracle EBS 11i or it Can be install on Stand alone machin for safer side. You can install it on a standalone server OR in a separate Oracle Business Intelligence Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) ORACLE_HOME on an existing application tier server node.
Also can it be install on the Windows machin as our EBS 11i installed on Linux Platform.Can be installed on any OS (as long as it is supported).

Registering Discoverer Portlet Provider with JDeveloper WebCenter

Is it possible to register DPP with JDeveloper? What kind of portlet producer is DPP, WSRP or Oracle PDK? Can anyone tell me the specific steps (i.e., what to fill in for the URL, subscriber ID, etc.)?
Thanks,
-warren

You might want to ask this on the Discoverer forum.
It depends on the type of portlet DPP is - JDeveloper can register both WSRP and PDK portlets.

Discoverer Portlet Provider, No Response from Application Web Server

I must have some odd configurable incorrect. I hope one of you can help me out and point me in the right direction.
My issue involves the "Discoverer List of Worksheets" portlet. It will display all the workbooks and I can drill in and see the worksheets, but, when I click/choose a worksheet, it will return within a couple seconds and display "No Response from Application Web Server" in bold red letters, then "There was no response from application ...", then "Please notify the site's webmaster ...". I have spent the day trying to lock down a log on the http server, j2ee, web cache and used enterprise manager to see logs which changed immediately after the error but didn't seem to find much.
What am I missing? Is there a timeout somewhere? Does it look like I missed something when I configured anything?
Below are the configurables and answers to some of the obvious questions.
Thanks,

Thank you for your help

Hi Amer,
For OLAP access in 10g database you must apply the 10.1.0.4 patchset that can be downloaded from Metalink. This provides many new features for the OLAP option such as improved sparsity management and paritioned cubes to name a few of the new features.
Once you have this patchset installed you will then be able to use Discoverer to access your dimensions and cubes.
Hope this helps

Help with Oracle AS Portal Error Messages

Hi
Our Application basically consists of a number of Reports which display data from a database, and Forms which will allow the insert of data in the table that the form is based on...
The application is used by business users.
I need assistance with the error messages that appear on Oracle Portal if something goes wrong - wrong data entered on a form for the database table, some error with a trigger that is called on the table where data is being inserted/ updated etc...
Currently, when an error occurs on the form (when you are trying to insert data into the database), the following errors can appear (this is an example of the actual format.)
Error: Internal error (WWC-00006)
An unexpected error occurred: ORA-20001: aft person ins
ORA-06512: at "RFS.RFS_AFT_INS", line 41
ORA-12899: value too large for column "RFS"."RFS_PERSON"."USER_ID" (actual: 22, maximum: 20)
ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'RFS.RFS_AFT_INS' (WWV-16016)
While this error will tell a developer what to do, it will not really tell an end user what the problem is...
I have started to edit the functions/ procedures that are used/ triggered from the forms to display a message in more or less the following format.
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,'PLEASE NOTE: There is no XXX data for the XXX used. Please contact your administrator to assist.',TRUE);
What I want to know is, by changing the functions on the database etc, will I be catering for the errors, and will the message that I create be displayed to the user, or will they still see the original error message above?
Are there ways to display a more user-friendly error, even if just to say "Contact your administrator..." or something?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

By editing the default error messages, there is a risk the next patch or patch set to overwrite your customizations. A better approach would be to create custom error page(s) for Portal forms/reports.
Please refer to Metalink Note: 157132.1 How to Create a Custom Error Page for Portal Form.
Thanks.

Oracle SSO 10g with Oracle WebCenter portal 11g (11.1.1.8)

My client is having an existing Single Sign On solution (SSO 10g) and now we are implementing webcenter portal 11g (11.1.1.8).
The client is going for OID 11g for the new implementation and wants old SSO to be used for single sign on.
Here's the stack:
1. Oracle SSO 10g - existing one and client is not interested in upgrading to OIM/OAM 11g.
2. Oracle OID 11g - new install and client is ready for migration.
3. Oracle WebCenter 11g - the custom portal whose build is in progress.
We want to bring the new portal implemention under the SSO umbrella for authentication and authorization.
The questions are:
1. Is this discouraged by Oracle? I mean, if you are using 11g for WCP and 11g for OID why not migrate to OIM/OAM 11g ?
2. Can I configure my new portal for this old SSO? if yes, is there any documentation for it? Are there any limitations/demerits in this approach?
3. Is there any other bettter way out there which I am not aware of?
Thanks in advance
Regards
