Dynamic page information from the portal database?

Is it possible to get information about existing dynamic pages from the portal database? We're upgrading our portal from 9.0.4 to 10.1.4 and because we will be running the new version on a different platform, we can't run any upgrade scripts and need to build again from scratch. I was hoping I could pull dynamic page information from a portal view or table into a spreadsheet, to save our developers having to click into each dynamic page application in the old version to get the pl/sql code to copy and paste into the new version. The generated dynamic page packages just have api calls, so it may be possible that there's an api to do this. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, how to do it? Thanks.

I havent create new token values.
Edited by: C@rlitos on Sep 30, 2009 6:14 PMHave you configured your Infra with a new hostname on a different port ?
Unless, you had installed your OAS with custom ports, and have not used the default ports for the components, your lsnr_token for the newurl has a problem. orasso and sso should be configured at 7777, and by default they configure at that port. That means that your newURL should be pointing to http://newurl.com:7777/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login for the ls_login_url.
This might have happened due to some error in registering your portal with the SSO. Have you used custom ports for your installations?
Additionally, did you configure your newurl on port 80?

How do I retrieve document information from the portal tables?

Hi, I'm really stuck on this and any help would be much appreciated.
I want to select out document information using the categories and perspectives as search criteria, I've written the following select statement but am not sure that this is the correct way to do it and I keep getting a 'unhandled user-defined exception ... at PORTAL.WWCTX_SSO'
(I have set the context before running the sql)
select id, display_name, description, real_filename, mime_type, doc_size
from
portal.wwsbr_all_items, portal.wwv_document$
where
wwsbr_all_items.filename = wwv_document$.name
and category_id=(select id from portal.wwsbr_all_categories where name = 'MY_CATEGORY')
and id in (select item_id from portal.wwsbr_item_perspectives where upper(perspective_name) = 'MY_PERSPECTIVE')
and is_current_version = 1 and (expiredate IS NULL or expiredate > sysdate)

How can we call Tcode from the Portal?

Senario:
2 BAPIs are developed:
1. The information say... ABC is stored into the table from the portal using the Create BAPI.
2. The change in this ABC information is done using a particular <b>Tcode</b> say xyz. This is a report that calls the change BAPI inside.
The ABC information change will be done either through the Tcode in ECC or through the EP.
3. The Tcode has been created in ECC.
Please let me know who will be responsible to call this tcode from the Portal and how?
I am very very new to EP field so please help...

Hi Jignesh,
If you have already performed these steps and are able to see the iview that you have created. Then I think your issue has been sorted out.
To explain it to you in detail.
Let us suppose, you have created a SAP Transactional iview to access the TCODE-SE38.
Now, as soon as the user clicks on the iview, it will authenticate by asking for the username and password for the backend system...if your SSO is not in place.
Now, if your asking me how to make the iview visible.
You can add assign this SAP transactional iview to a page,a workset or a role and add the corresponding page, workset or role to the user in USER ADMINISTARTION by making it an entry point.
Or to make the iview as an entry point, right click on the iview that you have created and open the properties, then for the option that says entry point choose yes.
I guess that answers your question.
Let me know if you have need any further clarifications on the same.
Regards,
Sandeep

Moving the Portal Database

I have attempted to move the portal database onto another host machine. When I move the database and point the portal at the database everything seems to work fine except for the administration area of the portal. When I try to navigate to the administration area I get an error. Can anyone help with a resolution for this?

Creating Custom Tables in the Portal Database

Is there a way to create custom tables in the portal database in EP6?
Thanks,
Melissa

Thanks for responding, Nick.
We want to be able to display informational messages on the logon page before the user logs in. Currently we make changes to several ASP files in EP5 to display the messages. We want to be able to give privileged users the ability to enter the message, enter start/end date, etc. We want to do this in EP6 as well.

How to access the portal database ?

Hi ,
1. How to access the portal database from an abstract portal component program ?
2. How to insert data to the Table from the abstract portal component program ?
Please provide me some direction to proceed .
plz send me the steps how to access the Database using SQL.
Thanks

Hi Smita,
In case your portal has MS SQL server as its databse, then I am giving the step by step directions to achieve 90% of what you wish to do. Rest 10% you can try on your own.
Go through my article given below:
[How to Create a Web Service using Enterprise JavaBeans|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/b00917dc-ead4-2910-3ebb-b0a63e49ef10]
First go through pages 1-12 which will help you to create user/table in MS SQL database as well as create a data source in Visual Admin. Page 19 will give you the code which you can use in your Portal component to access the tables you have created in your SQL database.
I hope your problem gets solved.
Bye

HT204266 How can I remove my credit card information from the app store?

How can I remove my credit card information from the app store? I would like to have an account without the credit card information.
I would like to put in my credit card only when I am ready to purchase.

On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?

Exctract information from the title of the document

Hello all,
Not sure my post should go in this topic...
I need to exctract information from the name property of my PDF document, and put that information it in the footer of my document:
exemple :
My doc name is : S01_Blabla.pdf
I need to do a script that could put as a footer "S01" on all pages of my document.
Is there any way to do that in acrobat?
Thanks
Fabien
PS : I'm working on Acrobat V9 pro

Thanks for this useful answer,
Being a beginner in this acrobat Javascript dev, I have one more qestion :
Is this script associated to one document? or can it somehow be stored in the Acrobat interface to be run on any new document I open, in a similar way as what is done for sequences?
Thanks

SharePoint 2013 - Server Error in '/' Application - This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database

Hi
After I ran SharePoint configuration wizard successfully to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 / SP1.
I can open Central Administration site just fine.
but now when I open any Site collection, I got this error.
Server Error in '/' Application
This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database. To connect this server to the server farm, use the SharePoint Products Configuration
Wizard, located on the Start menu in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products
I have restarted all the servers: SQL server, WFE and APP servers but still cann't get this resolve.
Services on all servers are running, IIS - application pools are running.
Can someone help with where that could be a problem or if there is a solution.
Thanks in advance for your comments or advices.
Swanl

Please verify the followings:
Make sure that from the SharePoint front end and application servers that you can ping your SQL server.
Make sure that your Farm account has permission to the configuration database.
Lastly verify that your database didn't for some reasons go into recovery mode.
once everything is fine and you are still having issues, restart the SQL host service on the SQL server.
Once the service is restarted you will need to reboot Central Admin and then your front end servers.
In addition, as you built your farm inside the firewall, please disable the firwall, or create rules for SQL Server service in the firwall on SQL server.
More information about creating rules in firewall, please refer to the following posts: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c5d4d0d0-9a3b-4431-8150-17ccfbc6fb82/can-not-create-data-source-to-an-sql-server http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1929/configure-windows-firewall-to-work-with-sql-server/

Printing a report with print sheets from the portal

It is my understanding that a print sheet uses a variant to make a connection between the variable settings set in the web portal and the variable / filtering settings that are used when printing a report. It is also my understanding that without a print sheet and variant that when a user prints a report from the portal that the printed report would not have the same filtering (variable settings) as what the user sees in the report. I have created a report and a print sheet that uses a variant, but when we view reports in the portal there is not a print icon... we can only print from the browser. Printing from the browser only prints what is on the screen, not a formatted report set up in the reporting agent. How do I print a report that uses a variant and a print sheet set up in the reporting agent to be available to print from the portal... i.e. display an icon to print the report? If you have a better or more detailed explanation of what a print sheet is and how to set it up, please include that as well.

The BW Reporting agent print settings is used for batch printing of BW reports not online printing from the web.
Currently there are no SAP delivered formatted reporting print functionality for BW. BI 7.0 will have formatted reporting and PDF export options.
SAP had recently released a How to Document on printing using MS Excel. See the attached link for the same.
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700001853752005E/HowToWebPrintingWithExcel.zip

A new application built on a schema not in the portal database

I want to create a new application using the create "new application" function of the "build" tab of Portal.
I want this application to use a schema not in the Portal Database. The schema the application has to use belongs to a different database residing on the same machine the Portal database resides.
But the Portal "Application Name and Schema" form does allow me to choose a schema outside the Oracle Portal database.
I run Oracle Portal Version: 3.0.7.6.2 on WNT.
Thank for any suggestion.

Maurizio
Carol's right. Create a schema in the local database then create a db link to the remote db connecting as that schema user (or some other of your choice). In my experience this has to be a public db link.
I run a portal application against a database on another sun box. There's some hassles, but it works ok mostly.
The db link connects as the user to the remote database and I grant privileges in the remote db to that db link user. I also have public synonyms in the portal database that point to the objects in the remote db. I have public synonyms in the remote database that sort out the schema of the objects required.
This sounds complicated and I've explained it in a rush, but if you sit down and work it through it's not so bad. You may find a better way, but after several trials I've got a setup that works.
Also, when I create a form I always refer only to the synonym - never to a schema.object. That way you can adjust the synonym easily without rewriting your report.
I always make reports from sql for the reason that you can change the sql, though I always refer to my synonym never to schema.object.
Session info doesn't travel well to the remote instance. I've had to build a work-around to get my table triggers in the remote instance to figure out who the portal user is because wwctx_api.get_user returns public.
I've been unable to directly call procedures in the remote database from portal components, but I've got around that by creating wrapper procedures in the local database.
It hasn't been a trivial exercise, but it does work.
