How to do credential vault in Oracle Portal?

Hi,
How can we do credential vault (allowing portlets to log in to applications outside the realm on behalf of the user--imitating SSO by managing multiple identities for portlets and users) in Oracle Portal ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Jeffry

You can use credential vault with 10.1.3 Web Center Integration WCI, or with FMW 11g Web Center.
With FMW 11g, the APIs are mainly available for Web Center but havent seen any references for Oracle Portal 11g.

How to preview a page in Oracle Portal?

Hi gurus,
I'd like to know if there is anyway to preview a page in Oracle Portal 10g 9.0.4.
Customer needs to preview the page (how it will looks like) before inserting
new contents (image, link, url, item, portlet etc.) in it, so just the page manager
(user or group that has MANAGER access in that page) can see it that time and
no other user can, until the page manager aprove the new format of the page and
"deploy" the page to the user.
Any suggestions on how to do this?

Hi,
I'm afraid there's not a preview option as you describe it. It is something our customers have asked for too, so I'll be happy if somebody knows a decent way to accomplish this. I hope this is included in a future release.
Kind regards.

How to call a form in Oracle Portal?

I'm trying to call a form from my corporate Oracle Portal. Can anyone advice me how to do it?
Thanks and Regards.

Alex,
you are not providing enough information, making it not easy to provide a short answer without going down the whole tree of possibilities.
Case1: You want it appear as a link in Oracle Portal.
a) You can use the "myfavorite" portlet, which is a kind of bookmark list that can be managed by each user individually.
b) you ca create a content area and make it to appear as a type URL. Then you define it as a portlet.
c) You create a HTML page with all the forms links in it and use the URLServices portlet or teh HTML portlet
Case2: You want it to appear within the portal as a portlet.
In this case you choose the URL Services. URL services are a part of the Portal Development Kit and in there a part of the Java Portal Development kit.
It is not recommended to integrate Forms as a Portlet in Portal (CASE2) but to start it from a link (CASE 1) for this reasons:
- http accept-header misses Browser type information information
- Forms startup time slows down portal page startup
- SSO doesn't work straight away
- Forms9i, because based on java 1.3, will reload Forms when reloading the portal page, loosing the application context (this is not yet an issue with Forms6i).
Of course, you can have it working as a portlet and I did it in the past, but it will require some work to do that is not yet documented (and probably never will).

The recommended way is to export the User Manager configuration template out (using the AdminUI), import it into your new enviroment (again using the AdminUI - you have to type the password of the LDAP user in since it is not exported) and then initiating an LDAP Synch.

How to registor database provider in oracleAS portal

hi,
problem occur when i register a database provider into oracleAS portal.i create database provider by using locally built provider in oracleAS portal.
i Register the name of the schema containing the provider implementation and don't no package that implements its functionality.
so i want to create a package please write a code if possible or any documentation related to my problem.

Thanks bgrinvalds.
I really start off with an empty BPEL process and check the box says "Create Instance" in the receive activity.
But after I deploy the polling service, it didn't take effect (Once you deploy these processes they will begin polling the table you defined.).
Now, I can insert data into the table through Database Adapter.
But still can't select data from the table through Database Adapter (Above error still happen when invoke the read database table with Database Adapter project).
And I find some examples in this directory: %SOA_HOME%\bpel\samples\tutorials\122.DBAdapter. But after I import these project into JDeveloper, I still can't see the configuration of the Database Adapter in Adapter Configuration Wizard. It's a pity!

How to configure Content server with Oracle Portal

I am working on oracle portal using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0. I need to configure Content server to work with UCM. Which content server version should i use and what basic steps required to configure it.
OS environment is Windows XP SP3.
Database server is Oracle 10gR2

Hi
"I need to configure Content server to work with UCM." - I am not clear on this .
UCM is content server .
Now if you are looking to have UCM contents rendered on Oracle Portal then you will need to use Content Portlet Suite .
Hope this helps .

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

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...

Please help my Oracle Friends

thanks and regards

You said, "...+I would like to install Release 2(11.1.1.2.0)+ ...". Be careful. 11.1.1.2.0 is not Release 2. The version for Rel 2 is 11.1.2.0, notice that there is one less "1". Also, there is no way to patch from Release 1 to Release 2.
In EDelivery, this is what you should find if you search on "Oracle Fusion Middleware" for "Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)":
First look for this link then drill into it:
Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)
In this section you will find the following:
This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 2 (Forms & Reports)
Oracle Forms and Reports 11g R2 (11.1.2.0.0) for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit) V28761-01
This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 1 (includes Portal, Forms, Reports, and Disco)
Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 1 of 4) V18785-01

Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 4 of 4)
This is the FMw 11 Release 1 patch set that will bring the above 11.1.1.2.0 installation to 11.1.1.6. This is NOT a full product installation - just a patch
Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patch Set 5 (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) V29850-01
There are no patch sets for Release 2 as of yet.

Regarding Oracle Portal 10g

Hi all...
I'm currently working with portal related application.
but I'm looking for exact steps how to configure jsp pages on Oracle portal.
How to host those on portal server???
Anyone who can guide me further..... ASAP
Thanking you in anticipation..

If you are primarily looking to build JSP/ Servlet based portlets use the Jdeveloper 10g which will build skeleton code for you. You can deploy the same like a war or ear file to 10g AS and access via Portal.

Configuring GZip for OracleAS Portal

How do you configure gzip with OracleAS portal.
Currently i have added the gzip jar file in my application, and configured the same through the Web.xml file as
<filter>
<filter-name>Compress</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.appln.GZIPFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Compress</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/portal</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
However the GZipFilter class is not getting invoked.
I think the problem is the the way the url-pattern is written.
Can someone please tell me how could this be written, so that the gzip utility is activated.

Must say that the presentation is pretty good though.

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
