Exp/Imp content Area Portlet..?

How to Exp/Imp "Content area folder published as a portlet" which reside in "WWSBR_SITEBUILDER_PROVIDER".
Anybody from Oracle..?
Thanks.
Rakesh

I assume you are using the 309 version of portal. It is possible to export out an entire content area or a page but not the granular items. By granular I mean just the folder in this context. If you wish to export/import the entire content area/page, you can run the pageexp/pageimp/contexp/contimp scripts which reside in the WWU directory.

The 'Edit folder' link doesn't appear in content area portlet (URGENT)

Hi! I made three content areas, and published them as portlets in a page. However, when I enter the page as an authorized user, I don't see the 'Edit folder' link on any content area portlet. But if I enter to any of the content area pages with the same user, I see the link
Is this a bug? What could be the reason?
Thanks a lot!
Luis

try this...
Edit the page where you added the portlets. Click the edit defaults link next to each of the portlets and scroll down to make sure the show Edit Link checkbox is checked. I don4t see any Edit Link checkbox when I edit the portlet's defaults!!
What should it be?

Switching Content Area Portlet Edit/View Mode

I am trying this question again since I did not get responses to my first try.
The current Content Area Portlet included with Portal 3.0.8 works fine except that it does not include the "Main Banner" nor the "Sub Banner". This means that portlet users do not have access to either the "Edit/View folder" function nor the current folder name.
My customer would like some users to have item upload capability. What are my choices without these banners? I can access the content area in "full page" mode and have the banners available. But this is undesirable since we would like the content area to stay "in the portlet" in order to maintain portal context.
I might be able to switch the edit/view function from another portlet on the same page if I pass the p_edit and p_mode parameters to redraw the multiple portlet page correctly. I have tried passing p_edit using the portlet reference path "&162_KCPCONTENTAREA_6429252.p_edit=1", but the Content Area Portlet does not respond. What else do I need to do? Is this even possible?
Thanks for any advise you can provide

Thanks, Wendel Yale

I have determined that there will be be an edit link included in the Content Area Portlet in the 3.0.9 release due out in May. This leaves open the question of support for parameter passing for out-of-the-box portlets. Will (Is) this supported?

Help: lost our content area portlet (site)

On the "Oracle Portal Navigator" page under the "Content Area" tab someone deleted the "Site" portlet. How do I add the "Site" portlet back to the page?
I clicked on the customize page and tried to find the portlet to add but it is not listed. I then went to the portlet repository to see if it was expired or something but it was not there.
There is a "Content Areas" portlet that lets you select the content area to go to, but the navigate button takes you back to the "Oracle Portal Navigator" page to the "Content Area" tab.
The same thing happens when you go to the Admin section of a site and try to see the categories for that site. I can't edit my categories anymore.
They point to "Oracle Portal Navigator" page showing the "Content Area" tab, which is no longer the site portlet.
Any ideas?
Jeff Dalgliesh
PS I know its called the "Site" portlet because on A DIFFERENT portal server if I click the customize link on the "Oracle Portal Navigator" page under the "Content Area" tab that is the name it shows the Provider is "Oracle Portal" and the portlet is called "Site". IE "Oracle Portal: Site"

Link to content area - portlet not available

I have a link to a content area in that I open from another application. Occassionally, I get a "portlet not available" message. Is this related to navigating directly to the document repository? It works most of the time.
So 3 questions:
Is it acceptable to navigate directly to the content area? (My users then log on and store documents)
Am I getting the "portlet not available" message because of navigating to the content area this way?
Is there another reason I'm getting this message?
Thank you

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

Blank page produced when clicking on title of Content Area Portlet in version 3.0.8

We are getting a blank page when we click the title of the ContentArea/Folder portlet in a page. The problem is with the URL, which has _mode=6 as a parameter. When we reoved that parameter from the url content area is loaded accurately. Can you please tell us how to fix this bug. We are using 3.0.8.

Hi,
go to http://metalink.oracle.com/
click on PATCHES and search for product PORTAL release 3.0.8, platform Sun Solaris. The result is:

BLANK PAGE DISPLAYED WHEN CLICKING SOME PORTLET LINKS IN MONITOR TAB PAGE".
Download the patch and follow the instructions.

Public user sees old content of items in content area/portlets

I have items in my Content Area, as pl/sql folders, text and pl/sql items. These are all published as portlets. Access is set to public. The content of these items have been altered a couple of times during development, and they work as they should when I4m logged in as a user.
However, when I access these items (both directly by an url to the content area and by an url to the page containing the portlets) as the public user (not logged in), the content of these items is old. The content could be several weeks old, actually it is possible that the displayed content is the original content of the specific item (as it was when I first created the items).
To me, it sounds like a cache issue, and I tried to set "Enable plsql caching" to "no", with no improvement.
What can I do to solve this?
/Sara

You could try flushing the cache content by navigating to
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/modplsql/cache
..and deleting the directories and all content beneath them.
This is guaranteed to cause a cache rewrite.
You should also set your page cache settings to 'Dont Cache' which will guarantee that the cache is not being used.
You can check the caching status of a portlet on a page by adding _debug=1 to the URL you are viewing.
You can read more about it here..

Content area portlet empty

Hi,
I've set the page assigned to some content area as the homepage
for public users. In this way, when a user enters the site or
when he/she logouts, Portal shows that page.
The problem is that the portlet corresponding to the content
area page shows nothing! Changing the url (like
http://site/pls/fortal30/folder/...) gets the correct answer.
How can I change this behavior?
TIA

Did you use the generic folder portlet on the page, or did you
publish the folder as a portlet? If you used the generic folder
portlet, did you select the folder as a customization, or did
you use Edit Defaults.
Assuming that you used the generic folder portlet, and that you
customized it (vs. using edit defaults), you need to do the
following:
- Publish the folder as a portlet, and replace the generic
portlet with the published folder portlet (this is the
recommended alternative)
or
- Use edit defaults to select the folder you want in the generic
folder portlet.

Jerry

Exp/Import database schema vs Ch 10 Exp/Imp Content

Hi I'm using Portal 10.1.2.02. I'm a DBA tasked with migrating a Dev portal into Test, then Production.
There seems to be a number of ways to achieve this and I was hoping to clarify which is best for me.
I've run through note: 330391.1(copying the Portal schema) which details running a perl script to export and import onto a newly installed server. This process worked will.
Chapter 10 of the Portal guide details a fairly complex process of creating transports sets and migrating these over and importing.
My question is: if I want the entire Portal copied is there any difference in these processes? ie. Do you end up with the same result?
thanks in advance of any advice :-)

The cloning model is not a rerunnable model, its not granular and conditional migraton is not possible.
You can do the cloning only if u want to take a copy of the entire setup and rewire to a new midtier.
Portal exp/imp model helps u to achieve granular, conditional and rerunnable method of moving portal objects.
Apart from that, it comes with the readily available prechecks to intimate what's going wrong during the process.

Posting a content area as a portlet.

I am using a combination of content area portlets and PDK developed portlets. When I publish the folders in the content areas as a portlet they can sometimes be added to a page and sometimes cannot. All the time they show up on the provider list but I cannot understand why sometime I can add them and sometime I cannot add them to a page. All things are remaining the same.
Is there some checklist that I run against to see where I am going wrong?
Thanks in advance.
null

Did you try refreshing your portlet repository? What release of Portal are you currently using? Which version of the PDK? On which platform?
Thanks,
Harry

Simon,
the problem is with incorrect HTML generation. Do a 'View Source' of the CA.
After you manage to reformat the mangled HTML, you will find that there are quite a
few tags missing. e.g table rows start but there is no open row tag, there is not body close and html close tag (I could go on).
Netscape browsers are very strict and will trip on incorrect HTML generation. IE might be forgiving .
Another problem is multiple html,head and body tags. Each portlet in the page generates
html with these tags. multiple head tags can cause problems.
Quite a long laundry list. I just spent the better part of 2.5 hrs of my client trying to figure this out.

Portlet could not be contacted error in content area

hi everybody,
i've developed an application using Portal Content Area.And i am
accessing the content Area
like "http://<servername>/pls/portal30/url/folder/<Content area
name>".
But when i access it shows "Error : Portlet could not be
Contacted".then when i press refresh it opens the content Area.
Now i badly in need of avoiding that portlet error and directly
go to content area.
Pl. help me.
thanks in advance
regards,
Kathir

I strongly recommend upgrading to the 3.0.9 release (iAS
1.0.2.2) with the 3.0.9.8.2 patch (this patch should be
available for NT/2000 this week). Also, the database should be
running 8.1.7.1 (or later), as explained in the iAS release
notes.

Jerry

Link to content area from a folder portlet

We have deployed a folder portlet and a perspective portlet on a portal page. Each portlet is part of a small region on the page and rather than navigate through the folders in the portlet, we want to open the folder in the content area. So when a user selects the folder link in the folder portlet, the folder in the content area is opened.
At present the sub-folders are displayed in the small portlet region until we select an item which opens in a new window...
Thanks

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

Cannot publish a folder in my content area as a portlet

All,
Has anyone out there experienced or encountered the following problem depicted below. If yes, please let me know what you did or what steps/procedures you implemented to resolve this problem.
1. Go to content area an click the "Edit Folder" link.
2. Click the "Create Folder" link an select "container" as your folder type.
3. Click the next button and enter your folder display name and internal name. Leave the Category combo box as is General).
4. Click the finish button.
5. Edit the new folder.
6. Under the "Portlet Properties" section, set the "publish as portlet" checkbox.
7. Click the "Apply" or "Ok" button.
When I click the "apply" or "Ok" button, I receive the following error message:
Error: (WWS-00000)
Copyright) 2001, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved
Location: PORTAL30.wwv_main.main?p_language=us&p_cornerid=11470&p_edit=1&p_siteid=35&p_currcornerid=11470&p_calledfrom=1
I then click the "back" link on this error page that takes me back to the folder properties page. When I click the "apply" or "ok" button again, I am taken back to my content area page, which is the normal way for this process to work.
When I try adding a "URL" item to this folder, I get a blank page after hitting OK.
Next, I then try to add this folder as a portlet on my page. This folder portlet does not appear in portlet repository.
I subsequently go to the portlet repository and click the "refresh" link. I again encounter the following error message:
Error: (WWS-00000)
Copyright) 2001, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved
Location: http://www.reeis.usda.gov/servlet/page?_pageid=52&_dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30&_type=site&_fsiteid=2&_fid=1&_fnavbarid=1&_fnavbarsiteid=2&_fedit=0&_fmode=2&_fdisplaymode=1&_fcalledfrom=1&_fdisplayurl=
Oracle support is currently working on this problem through metalink. But, if anyone out there has encountered this problem and had it resolved, can you please forward your solution to me.
This is very urgent.
Abrom

In the Catalog, select the folder for the report(s) you want to update in the Folders pane. It should then appear in the Tasks pane (bottom left) with some options.
Select 'Permissions' and make sure that 'Hidden' attribute is unchecked. That worked for me.
There's also a 'Show Hidden Items' check box at the top right of the Catalog area that should be checked to view the filters in the Catalog area (rather than when ediiting a report).
