Displaying logo in Oracle Portal

We are building a portal to service multiple distribution channels. The layout for each distributor is the same, but the logo and banner image at the top of the page changes for each distributor. We are tracking the distributor as an attribute in OID. Can we conditionally display a logo based on an OID attribute? What's the best way to do this? We are using 10.1.4.
Thanks
Kevin

Hi,
depending on the sap version you are using, you can directly publish your transactions which have alv grid output via ITS. if you are using basis release lower than 640, then best solution is using ITS 620. ECC (basis 640) includes ITS within it and no additional ITS installation is needed.
Another way is using Web Dynpro for simple and complex reports. You've to convert your sap reports into rfc function modules.

Hi,
I have created a vo with transient attributes and attached the vo to the am.
But when I am trying to insert the row from my collection, it is giving me '
oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25058: Definition of resField of type Attribute not found in ResVO
But I have the transient attribute resField in my ResVO and I attached the same to AM also
I am trying to get the VO in my controller like the below:
OAViewObject resvo = (OAViewObject) am.findViewObject("ResVO");
if(vo==null)
resvo = am.createViewObject("ResVO","xxcust.oracle.apps.xxcust.server.ResVO");
if(vo!= null)
resvo.executeQuery();
//Creating and inserting values into the vo
Row row = resvo.createRow();
resvo.insertRow(row);
row.setAttribute("resField", "AB");
row.setAttribute("Value", "CD");
row.setAttribute("Desc", "Test");
When I am running my page, I am getting the
oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25058: Definition of resField of type Attribute not found in ResVO
I checked the spelling and the attribute name is correct.
Is it the problem with VO having all the transient attributes or am I missing something?
I appreciate your help...

How to get rid of "Oracle Portal" label(text) when mouse is over Logo.gif image

In several portal screens (for example:
Add Item wizard, Create Folder wizard,
Create Page Style Wizard, Account Info screen, Create Page wizard, Create Application Wizard, etc, etc.... )
there is like a Banner with the Logo.gif image and the text "Oracle Portal" displayed when the mouse is OVER Logo.gif
I know how to replace this image with our own file, but what i would like to know how to replace or eliminate the "Oracle Portal" text.
I imagine the information for this Template is stored somewhere in the database.
I will appreciate if someone can help me to identify where is located this info so I can delete/replace the text.
Any other suggestions will be wellcome.
Tks in advance

Malin,
when you install iAS, there is a directory
oracle_home\portal30\images where all the image files are stored.
for example, in my installation is:
D:\oracle\iSuites\portal30\images
one of the files is logo.gif, just overwrite that file with your own file (but keep the same name) and then your own logo or whatever you want will show up in the Portal.
pls note that there are different image files you may want to replace.
i hope it helps...

Displaying Sybase data in Oracle Portal?

I am using the Oracle Transparent Gateway for Sybase to access Sybase data in SQL Plus. How do I display
the sybase data in Oracle Portal? Does anyone know what to do or is there any documentation on this? Thanks.

Thomas,
First of all you need to create a schema for your Portal Application. Once that is done you will need to run in a DBA script called provsyns.sql so that this schema can execute and view the Portal core objects.
This script is located in $9ias_ORACLE_HOME/portal30/admin/plsql/wwc
Run this script as PORTAL30 with one parameter, this being the name of your new schema.
Then your next step would be to set up all the necessary grants and synonyms so that the objects you wish to view over the gateway can be viewed from your application schema.
Then you are ready to create an application in Portal via Navigator --> Applications.
Choose the new schema as the Application schema (this is where all the Portal generated code gets compiled) and try creating a simple Report component to see if your non-portal components are set up properly.
Hope this helps...

Images used inside the Portlets are not getting displayed on Oracle Portal

I am registering my JSR Portlet producer on Oracle Portal server but when its rendered on the portal page its not showing images.It just shows a red cross mark showing image is not loaded.Can anyone help me out please samt thing is happening with CSS also.Please reply soon

I'd check the image properties (right click the x and choose properties) and see what the path is for the image. If it is a relative path, you need to make sure that the file is in that location on the Application Server. /images/myImage.jpg would mean the file should be in $ORACLE_HOME/portal/images on the midtier.

Is not displayed portlet with ADF on Oracle Portal 11g

Hi!
I’ve tried to create a portlet by means of JSR 168 Java Portlet Wizard in Jdev 11g. On step 3 “Content type and Portlet modes“ I choose “Generate ADF-Faces JSPX”, and added an adf calendar to my jspx page, deploied the project to the weblogic server, that provided by JDeveloper 11g. Then I’ve registrated a WSRP2.0 provider in Oracle Portal 11g. My portlet have appeared in portlet repository, and I’ve added it to my page, but when I view this page, I have an error: “Error: Could not get portlet markup. Try reloading the portlet or the page.”.
In “Developer guide for Oracle Portal 11g” I’ve read, that I have to add “ADF bindig filter” to my web.xml, but error stay.
Thanks and sorry for my english.

Hello AMN,
Is there anything different or a particular way you are developing objects and using the jquery framework? I am looking for a sort of best practice approach - where to put the jquery script call, and where to put the html (dyn page portlet vs items vs.....).
In regards to some of my previous problems, I think I found where the performance problem was - not sure why. Besides using the jquery framework, I was also trying to use the jquery validation plugin.
http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/
I am using the proper calls <script> tags from a HTML template, and the DOM (atleast the elements I will act on) is generated from a dynamic page portlet (that calls a procedure). When I use the validation plug-in and submit the form, there is a noticable delay in calling the plug-in to perform some sort of field validation. It doesn't error out, but instead takes about 5 - 10 seconds to complete.
If I remove portal from the picture, and upload the html directly on Apache, this performs fast as expected. I do not understand why the javascript is taking so long to act, since I would have expected this to be handled on the client side.
Instead of troubleshooting further, I am planning to avoid that plug-in and just create the validation myself.
Thanks
Adrian

How to integrate Oracle Portal running on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2

I have an Oracle Portal running on a Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.
Portal is responsible ( along with OID ) for the users authentication and authorization.
There is a new JEE application that was developed recently, which the Portal users must have access to.
HOW can I put a link into a page of the Portal, that redirects the portal user to a new browser window displaying my new application?
HOW can this new application, running in a separate weblogic 11g (10.3.5) server, automatically authenticate with the same username/password previously authenticated when the user logged into the portal?
Any ideas?
I´ve already thought in a bunch of ways to do it:
- put a link into the portal with a sessionId, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to use the same session. How can I configure this session id during the creation of the portal's page? How can I use it from the new app to use the same session?
- put a link into the portal with a userid, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to authenticate using a different authentication provider configurated in WL, which points to Portal´s OID. In this situation, how can I ensure that the user is already logged in and the session has not timed out?
- Should I use OSSO?
- Should I use OAM?
Any help would be appreciated!
Murilo

Hi Murilo,
A portletized version of your J2EE app would probably have been ideal for your purpose as it would handle both authentication (through SSO) and session information (through Portal framework as the framework can pass session information to the provider/producer). This would require changes to the application however.
Easiest approach would be to use mod_osso to protect your J2EE application. SSO would then handle the authentication for your Portal and your J2EE application.
Thanks,
EJ

Sample PL/SQL Portlet Source Code for Oracle Portal 9ias

Hi, I'm a newbie of Oracle Portal technology, and I have a problem:
I would create a PL/SQL portlet that realizes the following functions:
1) Retrieve the username of the portal user logged from WWCTX_API.GET_USER function.
2) Insert into an oracle db table two values about two hidden fields in the HTML FORM of the portlet.
3) Realize the insert commit through the click on the submit button on the Html form of the portlet. I would redirect by the same button to an other page url also.
I've never developed in Portal, and may be useful if someone could post me the source code of the SHOW MODE SECTION in the PROCEDURE SHOW of a SAMPLE PL/SQL PORTLET that realizes the upper functions.
Thanks a lot....

Hi
Here's the code from Helloworld_Portlet example:
procedure show
p_portlet_record wwpro_api_provider.portlet_runtime_record
is
l_portlet wwpro_api_provider.portlet_record;
begin
if (not is_runnable(
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_reference_path => p_portlet_record.reference_path)
) then
raise wwpro_api_provider.PORTLET_SECURITY_EXCEPTION;
end if;
Retrieve the portlet information.
l_portlet := get_portlet_info(
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_language => p_portlet_record.language
if (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW) then
if (p_portlet_record.has_title_region) then
Draw the portlet header and specify what links are available
from that header (i.e. details, customize, help, and about).
The has_title property is set at the page region level.
wwui_api_portlet.draw_portlet_header
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_portlet_id => p_portlet_record.portlet_id
,p_title => l_portlet.title
,p_has_details => true
,p_has_edit => true
,p_has_help => true
,p_has_about => true
,p_referencepath => p_portlet_record.reference_path
,p_back_url => p_portlet_record.page_url
end if;
Draw the portlet borders.
The has_border property is set at the page region level.
wwui_api_portlet.open_portlet(p_portlet_record.has_border);
Display the content of the portlet in the show mode.
Use the wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text() API when
generating the content of the portlet so that the
output uses the portlet CSS.
htp.p(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text(
p_string => 'Hello World - Mode Show'
,p_level => 1
if (p_portlet_record.has_border) then
wwui_api_portlet.close_portlet;
end if;
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_ABOUT) then
Display the about page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show About');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_EDIT) then
Display the edit page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Edit');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_HELP) then
Display the help page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Help');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_EDIT_DEFAULTS) then
Display the edit defaults page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Edit Defaults');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_DETAILS) then
Display the details page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Details');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_PREVIEW) then
Display the preview page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Preview');
end if;
end show;
I think you need to add this:
You can get the values of your html-form with this command:
v_hidden_1 varchar2(256);
v_hidden_2 varchar2(256);
v_hidden_1 := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('name_of_hidden_1_in_html_form','p');
v_hidden_2 := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('name_of_hidden_2_in_html_form','p');
You can get the actual URL with this command:
v_url := p_portlet_record.page_url;
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Mark

Problem running Oracle Portal to Go (Oracle9i 1.0.2.0.0)

I have installed Oracle9i Application Server WE 1.0.2.0.0 Standard Edition on Windows2000 Professional Edition. I am getting problems regarding running Portal to Go.
The installer said that installation was successful. Moreover I have done the configuration tasks mentioned Oracle9i installation guide under post installation steps for Oracle9i.
But Oracle Portal to Go is not running and returning error message. Are there some other tasks still to perform to configure the Oracle Portal to Go Standard Edition?
Here it is a brief Description of what I have done with the installations process
System: Pentium II 500 MHZ with 256 MB RAM and 15 GB Hard Disk so enough space available for installations.
Windows 2000 professional was freshly installed
All pre installation tasks are done like paging file size is 896MB
Important Installation steps and points are as under (Standard Edition of Oracle 9i Application Server 1.0.2.0.0):
I followed all the steps given in Oracle 9i AS installation guide
On Windows 2000 Installer never asks for reboot before actually installing the Oracle 9i application server (Chapter 4 of installation guide: preparing system for installation: step5: page 5 of 25). So I manually reboot the system
During installation when I reached Database Access Descriptor (DAD) for Oracle Portal. In TNS connect string field for Apache listener Configuration I entered the same name (abc) (chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step2, 3: page 10,11 of 25) as I was going to use for my Global database name later at database Identification steps (chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step 4: page 12 of 25)
Note: In an other installation I left the same fields (TNS connect string) blank but of no use.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
When installation of Oracle9i AS reaches 100% installer opens a command prompt and displays
ORA: 12541 TNS: No Listener
Enter user name:
When I enter SYSTEM as a user name it displays
Password:
I entered manager as password and then it displays
ORA 12560: TNSProtocol adaptor error
And once again it asks for user name and password
I once again enter system as a user and manager as password.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
After 100% completion of the installation the configuration tools screen appears
(Chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step 10: page 17 of 25) and the following tasks are performed
Net8 configuration Assistant succeeds
Oracle database configuration assistant succeeds
When The Oracle portal 3.0 configuration Assistant Starts
I hold the installation steps for oracle portal for a while and do some database configuration tasks that are necessary (may be some are not) for installation of portal.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
For example
Increase the table space size of Users (400 MB), and Temp (100MB) table spaces.
Validated invalid PL/SQL Modules with ULTRP.SQL script
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Installed dbms_job.sql package as it was mentioned in another guide (Oracle portal-to-Go installation Guide- Release1.0.2: Page 1: last line)
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Stopped the database and listener
And did some changes as was asked in Oracle portal-to-Go installation Guide- Release1.0.2
Edited the init<SID>.ora file and set the following fields
aq_tm_processes = 1
job_queue_processes = 4 (2 were recommended in guide but I left the already set values)
job_queue_interval = 30
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Also I did the following too (though these are recommended for Internet file system)
opern_cursors = 300 (in installation guide it is asked 255 but I kept the already set value)
shared_pool_size = 52438800 (50M was suggested and this is more than that)
processes = 200
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
I started the database and listener
Proceeded the installation of Oracle Portal as is described in installation guide for Oracle 9i Application guide 1.0.2.0.0
And successfully completed the installation of Oracle Portal
There were no errors reported on the installer however when I read the installation log some errors were mentioned at the end of the file
Please see the attached log file.
I also completed all the post installation tasks at the end of chapter 4 of Oracle9i Application Server installation guide 1.0.2.0.0 except the configuration of Oracle Internet file system (is it necessary for running Oracle Portal to Go)
When I run the oracle portal to go the following situation is encountered
Working: http://localhost/pls/portal30/admin_/dadentries.htm
Error at: http://localhost/pls/portal30/portal30.home
Error: The preference path does not exist: Oracle.Portal.Page (WWC-51000)
(And this is the main source of confusion)
Working: http://localhost/pls/portal30/admin_/gateway.htm?schema=portal30
Working: http://et-wks-08:5555/invoke/wm.server.admin/adminPage
Are there any other guides and post installation steps still to follow to successfully run this Portal to Go or it is sufficient?
I can also send the installation logs of both Oracle 9i application server (installActions.log and installActions2001-05-28_03-50-56-PM.log) and Oracle portal to Go (install.log).
If you ask, I can send you the installation guides that I have followed and the screen shoots of the error messages for a detail review.
Moreover can anyone please tell me if this version of Oracle 9i Application server is ok or I must try some other version?
Also advise any other if any successful configuration and installation options.
Is it possible to run this portal to go with any other installation options/arrangements/configurations etc?
Any help from anyone will be highly appreciated.

Hyperlink in MS Word document to Oracle Portal 9.0.4 form does not work

Hi,
In a MS Word document a link to a Oracle Portal 9.0.4 form is written this way:
http://myserver/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=47602092358
When clicking on the link, and at the same time holding the Ctrl-button, an error is displayed
Error: An unexpected error occurred: ORA-01403: no data found (WWV-16016)
and the URL is changed to
http://myserver/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.show?p_sessionid=248080&p_header=true
But if the hyperlink is copy/pasted from the Word document to the addressline of any browser, the form is opened without problems.
Any proposals how to write hyperlink in MS Word to Portal forms will be much appreciated.

Publish a BI Publisher HTML output to the Oracle Portal

We currently use multiple JSPs to assemble and display employee data in portlets in our Oracle Portal. We're interested in redoing the display of this data using BI Publisher and would still like to send it to a portlet in our Oracle Portal. Essentially we would pass the userid as a parameter to BI Publisher when the employee logs on to the portlet. I was wondering if anyone ever published the HTML formatted output to an Oracle Portal?

Hi,
I am facing the same problem. Any updates on this issue.

Using Discoverer with Oracle Portal - URGENT!!!

I need to setup Oracle Portal 3.0 with Discoverer 3i for a demonstration tomorrow due to a "this just came in!" from the management! ;)
What I would like to do it to display some sort of Discoverer portlet so anyone with a browser can access and view Discover results in a nice manner.
I have been told this is possible (by Oracle Denmark) but how....?!
Could anyone please email a step-by-step description if you know how to do this?
Thanks!

If you don't check the "Connect to Applications EUL" option as described, Disco looks for a database user with the user name SYSADMIN, which you don't want (and probably doesn't exist).
An alternative is to put a : at the end of the user name (ie SYSADMIN:) which makes Disco treat this as an Oracle Applications user name, regardless of the connection options chosen. This should then prompt you to select the Oracle Applications Responsibility you want to use (assuming you have more than one). You can log directly into a specific responsibility by adding the responsibility name after the : (ie SYSADMIN:Disco Admin).

Oracle Portal - Associated Procedures With Custom Item

Dear Gurus,
I need to ask a question, when i have a custom Item built using Oracle Portal 10.1.4.2.0. and we have two procedures associated with this item. I need to display this item in some place with the first procedure and in another place with the second prcoedure.
What i want to explain is written as an example
Custom Item Type asscoiated with two different procedures (News Custom Item Type with two different procedures "brief procedure" and "detail procedure").
In one page i need to invoke the first procedure to display the item in Detail view and the second procedure to diplay the item in Brief view.
How can i invoke different procedures associated with this custom item type or how can i apply different procedures on custom item type to gain different views.
Please can help me or if you need a details i can presents more details.
hint:
i know something in Oracle Portal called ("Associated procedures"). and we use "related funbctions" attribute when we need to invoke a procedure to render some Custom Item Type.
But i cannot do that and this question is very important
Best Regards,

I've sorted this now - silly me, I'd left a <blank line> attribute in the display properties...

Displaying parameter form in Portal

we have reports created using 9i reports builder and are running them using 9ias portal version 9.0.2.2.22
can we get the parameter form displaying before the report is run, as at the moment it either gives an error because parameters have not been entered, or it runs with the last used parameters which may not be the ones required for this time ( and so reports take awhile to run)

hi
You could look at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/discoverer/files/viewlets/1012_dashboard.html
I don´t remember if here you create the simple parameter form. But there is a portlet called "Simple Parameter Form", you can find it at Portlet Builders. You can reach this link in your Oracle portal in the Edit link, in the add portlet link.
then you can follow the wizard to create your parameter portlet
After this step you should link the parameters you send through this portlet with the page and the other portlets.
I hope this help
