How to integrate Blogs & Discussion Forums for Webcenter Suite 10gR3?

Hi,
One of our clients has just gone live with a Webcenter 10gR3 Portal implementation (using WC Framework). They're now interested in integrating blogs and discussion forums with their Portal.
My understanding is that blogging, discussion forum etc is not supported in Webcenter 10gR3. Correct me if wrong?
Can someone share any solutions which have been implemented around the same. Eg: I read about using blogs, wiki etc from Webcenter 11g Stack and exposing them web services.
Basically what are the possible options we can explore into?
Thanks,
Preethi

Thanks Venkat. Actually we're not considering migrating to 11g I was only looking for possible options and this was one of them that I read the forum.
Thought to adding some more information about this portal: It is developed in WLP so they're on Weblogic Server.
Jon Huang, Director Product Management for Webcenter Suite and Portal tells me
"The WebCenter 10.1.3.4 Additional Services releases contains wiki/blog/discussions and is certified with WebCenter 10gR3 version:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/webcenter/owcs_10134_addtlservices.html
*You'll need to use WLS for these additional services.*"
That answers my question, but would appreciate if others can share any more info on similar implementations, if done.

RE: Integrating Discussion Forum with webcenter

Hi,
I have an doubt in integrating Discussion Forum in webcenter. All that is I want to use my Clients users to use discussion service embedded in webcenter. So Anyone please guide me in binding both webcenter and Discussion server to use same LDAP. Kindly please suggest me in terms of any screenshots, tutorials, videos etc.
Regards,
Dinesh Vishnu Kumar.C

Hi Dinesh,
You have to just integrate your domain with external LDAP server using the steps mentioned in the following guide.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_security_id_store.htm#BGBHHGEH
Once you done with it, from PS4 onward, discussion server use JSP-based security to authenticate itself from this LDAP based provider. The only thing you have to do in discussion is that you have to add one Administration user in discussion server using the following one procedure:-
a. From the Discussion Server Administration (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_security_id_store.htm#BGBGGHEA): As per my experience, you will not be able to access it once you configured external LDDAP provider. Therefore, I prefer to use option-b.
b. Run the WLST command i.e. addDiscussionsServerAdmin

I'm just looking for the same...
Saw one of the new packaged apps was for a Discussion forum at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/discussion_forum_0.91.zip
But its not exactly what I need.
Anyone know or want to share a CMS type of app?
Basically one that allowed you publish articles etc... similar to what Joomla/Mambo etc do?
Would be really useful!

Licenses for WebCenter Suit and WebLogic

Good day! I need help. I understand that, in addition to the license for WebCenter Suit, I need to also purchase a license for WebLogic. Is that if I need 4 licenses for WebCenter, it is necessary and 4 licenses WebLogic?
Thank you in advance for your reply!

This answer is actually not so easy - it depends what license do you actually refer to.
The current Oracle price list contains two SKUs that could apply:
- WebCenter Portal (WCP), formerly (about a year ago) called WebCenter Suite,
- and WebCenter Suite Plus (WCSP), which consists of WCP, WebCenter Content, and WebCenter Sites
WCP requires a license of Weblogic (to be precise: Weblogic Server Enterprise Edition) as a mandatory pre-requisite. And yes, the number of WLS corresponds to the number of WCP.
WCSP, on the other hand, is not that clear - the document Oracle Technology Global Price List Supplement does not mention WLS as a pre-requisite, but neither it mentions that WLS is included in the license in the restricted mode. In fact, two of suite products, namely, WCC and WCS won't need the WLS license (for WCC it is included in the restricted mode, and WCS might not need it at all).
Therefore, if you have WCSP rather than WCP I'd suggest to cross-check you needs with your local Oracle sales rep.

How to make a Discussion Forum like this one with Oracle Portal Applications

Hallo,
My colleagues and I are trying to make somthing similar for our planned intranet-platform and I wonder if there are some prefabricated modules which can be used (we are all enthused by the features of your Discussion Forums).
Maybe you can provide us with papers ("construction plan") how to bring such functionality to our intranet (I searched the Oracle page, but did not find papers of this content).
Thanks,
Chistian

Yes, this would be great. I have looked at some of the Partner Applications but the only module we want is this kind of a threaded message board. I would be very appreciative of this information as well.

Discussion Forum for One-to-One Training?

Is there a discussion forum set up yet for Apple's one-to-one personal training service? I can't seem to find it in the forums list. If there isn't one, I would like to request/recommend that one be created.

I thought Apple had people who skimmed these forums for suggestions/recommendations/complaints and in some cases to offer solutions?
I don't think it will do much good to talk to the manager of a local store, when what I want to do is suggest changes to the architecture of the scheduling system. For example, it would be nice if we could check on availability of appointment times without first having to cancel an existing appointment.
Also, it would be nice if we could set our browsers to remember our membership numbers so that it isn't necessary to dig out the membership card and transcribe by hand a 9 or 10 digit number every time you want to schedule an appointment. Or, alternatively, maybe we could just use our email addresses and a password to log into the system, completely obviating the need to use a membership number at all? I mean, Apple knows which membership numbers correspond to which email addresses. (that felt good -- I've been itching to use the word "obviate" for weeks now)
All of this is seems to be managed by Apple corporate, not the local stores. You have to log into the Apple website to schedule appointments.

No discussion forum for Preview?

I was just looking around, and I was going to see if people had questions about Preview. But I noticed there doesn't seem to be a forum for this. I would think, with all of the options in the latest versions, that it should warrant a discussion area.

Hi there, Heidi --
Just go to your OS Forum . . .
In your case Leopard.

How do I fix activation failure for Creative Suite 5.5 when transferring from XP computer to Windows 8.1?.

How do I fix an activation failure for Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard? I uninstalled this from my old XP computer and re-installed it on Windows 8.1 two weeks ago. I am in NZ and got error message #129.17. I used the recommended fix of changing the time zone when I did the transfer and this seemed to work, but today when I tried to use Acrobat Pro I got the activation failure message with the same error code again. This time the fix doesn't seem to work. Is there anything else I can try?

How to go on production system for webcenter sites

Hi,
I have installed the webcenter sites and deployed them on weblogic. AVISports and FirstSiteII sample sites also been configured, now how can I go on delivery/production url?
IF we need to install gadgets on top of it then how can we proceed?
Thanks,
Rajiv Jain

For Gadgets installation you can follow:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29495_01/doc.1111/gadgets_11gr1_installation_guide.pdf
Please make sure you install gadgets in separate machines (not even separate server on same machine) pointing to the installed cs. This is not documented but we got this info through Oracle SR.
For the production url, I'm also waiting for a response:
Actual site URL in the production server?
Thanks

How to integrate Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse with Weblogic Portal

Hi
I am following this documentation http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15919_01/wlp.1032/e14252/setup_dev_env.htm#i1013214
to setup my development environment for developing portal applications, but I cannot set it up, my eclipse does not have PORTAL perspective.
I have downloaded the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse 11gR1 (11.1.1.5) and the Oracle WebLogic Portal 10.3 as mentioned in the documentation.
The Oracle Weblogic Portal 10.3 includes a workshop version of eclipse, but that is not based on a recent Eclipse, that is why I would like to use the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse 11gR1 (11.1.1.5).
It is weird int he Oracle Portal 10.3 installation that I cannot install the Weblogic Portal without the Workshop.
Could you help me in this? How can I integrate the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse with Weblogic Portal?
Thank you.

For WebLogic Portal tooling you have a couple of options. For WebLogic Portal 10.3 and older, Workshop for WebLogic will be your tooling environment.
Starting in WebLogic Portal 10.3.2, which released this year, the development tools have migrated to Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse. The WebLogic Portal 10.3.2 installer will install both the runtime and the IDE configured with additional WebLogic Portal Eclipse features (Portal Project Configuration, Perspecitives, Palettes, Deployment, etc).
If you are interest in the latest version, you can download from the WebLogic Portal OTN page - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/weblogic/portal/index.html

How to develop a discussion forum using Java?

I am actually developing a forum using Java. That would actually include registering process for a new user and if the user has an account, he can log in. The program should then generate a welcome message and a randomly-created password of 8 char (char+digits), this wil be printed on the screen. I am quite a newbie in this area.. Appreciate for ur help
Thanzz....

and what is more import than actual programming when making a software like a forum system is the database design.
so first you have to designe your database
decide which data that you have to store and decide what are the table that you will need and what columns that you want in the tables
thats where you should start
