Import u2013 MDIS handling Question

This is for auto import and I have two fields and both are lookup fields.
FIELD A - Lookup field
FIELD B - Lookup field
Requirements
FIELD A, I have a new lookup field value in the import file and I want to add this new field value to the lookup table then map and import the file.
FIELD B, I have a new lookup field value in the import file but I want to set this as ERROR and donu2019t import this record.
How do we handle these two fields differently?
The Import manager configuration section of the default MDIS handling, unmapped value handling, I have IGNORE, ADD & FAIL. I can select one of the option and continue.
But how to handle this based on individual fields has individual requirements?
My another question is:-
My import file has 100 records. Import Manager configuration option, Default MDIS handling -> Unmapped value handling = Fail.
Out of the 100 records, only one record has the error so that record will not be loaded and remaining 99 records will be loaded.
But the exception folder, the file has all the records (100 records) if I am not mistaken. So it is pretty difficult to identify which record has error. Again if the input file has more records then it is more difficult.
Is there a way we can identify only records that are in error instead of looking the whole file in the exception folder?

Hi,
The Import manager configuration section of the default MDIS handling, unmapped value handling which you set, by default is applicable to all of the look up fields.
But if you want to handle it individually for two fields, you can.
In Map Fields/Values Tab Say Source Field A map with Target Destination field TrgA, Right click on TrgA Set Unmapped Value handling as Add.
IIy, you can set for Field B as per your requirement as Add, Ignore, Fail etc. As i see select here Fail.
For Second Question you asked,
Is there a way we can identify only records that are in error instead of looking the whole file in the exception folder
Whenever you get file into exception folder, Go to Import Manager, Select Type as Port, Remote system as per your requirement, Port as Filename(Exception) select and Finish it. Once your Import Manager opens, Go to Import Status Tab check Action Items for take the desired action to import that file. In this way you will come to know what are the fields and values which need to be mapped. Once it maps you can import this file in one shot and data will be populated into MDM.
Thanks and Regards,

Import & Library handling Question!

Is it possible to do the following 100% successfully?:
1. Import images from CF card into LR
2. cull in another program
3. create a new folder on hard drive & move all RAWs to be edited into this new folder
4. Import the choosen images to be edited into LR - from this new folder created on the hard drive (without them being linked ot the original import library when they were uploaded from the CF card)
5. send them out as small DNGs to editor
6. then receive the XMP files back in LR to update the RAWs with edits by dropping the XMPs ito the new folder that was created for images to be edited and let the RAWs update
7. save the updated RAWs that now have the edits applied from XMPs somehow (in RAW format still)
8. move onto Photoshop (ACR) to do any last touch-ups of my own, save as JPG, submit to client.
Thank you in advance!!!

As I said, there is no such thing as "small DNGs", maybe they mean "Lossy DNGs"? Perhaps you ought to confirm that's what they mean.
They edit my images and return them as XMP files.
Well, that's interesting. Lightroom offers no way to create XMP files from editing DNG files. Perhaps they have a plug-in or other way to do so. Technical correction ... they don't return the images as XMP files, they return the edits as XMP files
They instructed me to drag and drop the XMPs into the file folder that the RAW images are in and watch them update in LR.
This doesn't happen by itself. You would have to go into Lightroom, select the desired RAW files, and then issue the command Metadata->Read Metadata from Files
Once they are updated, they can get converted to JPG for client
Once they are updated, you can Export them as a JPG
What I want to know is, if I were to use LR to import and rename my files for me, save to one file folder on hard drive. Then cull the images manually, and create a "to be edited" fil folder - drag and drop the RAWs into that file folder. Can I re-import the files into LR from that new folder? ***Will LR recognize them as previously imported images linked to the orginal uploaded library, OR will LR link these reimported images to the "to be edited" folder that I created????
You are creating extra work for yourself. The idea of moving photos to a specific folder and reimporting is completely unnecessary here. Once they are in Lightroom, select the desired photos, assign a piece of metadata to those photos you want (color label, flag, keyword or whatever), and export as DNG for your editing service. No need to move the photos, and no need re-import. This takes you much less time than creating a new folder, moving the photos and reimporting.
Why are you even using Lightroom here, as you don't seem to need any of Lightroom's features. Why not use Bridge/ACR?

Fault and Error handling questions

Hi,
I have a few of questions regarding exception handling :
1. Where can I find documentation (i.e. details and when thrown) on all the Standard faults available with BPEL ie. those in
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/" and
http://schemas.oracle.com/extension
2. Let's say I do not know in advance what specific fault to catch. I add a catchAll inside my scope. When catchAll triggers, I want to get the detail faultmessages of whatever fault caused the catchAll.
3. I want to use a message type from the RuntimeFault.wsdl in my project. Should I copy over the wsdl file to my project folder ? If I do not copy over and import it from it's location (integration/orabpel/system/xmllib), the console is failing runtime when I try to render the input page.
How can I do that ?
Thanks
Arindam

You can find the standard faults from the BPELspec
1.1.
In 10.1.2.0.2 (the latest released version), youcan
use some system xpath functions to extract thefault
information in <catchAll> block:
getFaultAsString( ) returns String
Or
getFaultName( ) returns QName as fault name.Hi Muruga,
Thanks for your reply.
Can you please also let me know :
1. what's the signature of these methods ?
2. I have 10.1.2.0.2 local version. However under
catchall -> assign -> xpath expression builder, I do
not see these 2 functions.
Can you please help.
ThanksHi Muruga,
I tried doing the following :

MDI design question

[Question 1]
I am designing a Swing application using the Multi Document Interface style. The main JFrame has a single menu bar and toolbar that's shared by all InternalFrames in the application (InternalFrames don't have toolbar or menu). Since different InternalFrames have different functionality, when an InternalFrame launches, it needs disable/enable the relevant commands in the menu bar and toolbar. However, there are lots of commands in the menu bar and toolbar, and I can't find an elegant way to handle this enabling/disabling business. Is there a standard way to do this?
[Question 2]
About the same MDI application, what is the preferred way to handle events in the toolbar/menu that initiates a command? Since the command should be carried out by the InternalFrame, should the event be delegated to the InternalFrame who then carry out the event? What's an elegant way to do this in code?
Thanks!

Create an Action object for all the commands in the
menu and in the toolbar.
For event handling, when action occurs on a component
in the toolbar/menu, the Action object's
actionPerformed() method would determine the currently
active MyInternalFrame, and will forward the
ActionEvent object to the MyInternalFrame by calling
some method like handleAction(Action Event e) defined
inside the MyInternalFrame (MyInternalFrame differs
from JInternalFrame in the inclusion of
handleAction()). The handleAction() method would then
handle the event for the currently active frame.
MyInternalFrame therefore doesn't need to register as
the listener for any of the menu/toolbar components
it wants to listen to. Furthermore, any button
inside the Internal Frame itself that correspond to
the same function can implement event handling by
simply attaching the Action object.I don't understand why you need to forward the action event. Just execute the action
For disabling commands in the menu bar and toolbar,
inside the main JFrame, I will create a Dictionary
containing all the Action objects mapped to a short
name for the corresponding action. And I will provide
convenience methods for enabling/disabling a single,
set of, or all Actions by their String name, as well
as for setting/getting various properties of the
Action objects, as well as for getting the Action
objects themselves.Build a class ie. ActionManager that will keep all the actions in a map.
Something like that.
static Map actionMap = new Hashmap();
public static Action getAction(Class cName) {
          Object a = actionMap.get(cName.getName());
          if (a != null) { //We already created the action
               return (Action) a;
          Object instance = null;
          try {
               instance = cName.newInstance();
          } catch (InstantiationException ie) {
               Application.LOG().log(Level.WARNING
                         , "Failed to create a new action:" + cName.getName()
                         , ie);
          } catch (IllegalAccessException iae) {
               Application.LOG().log(Level.WARNING
                         , "Failed to create a new action:" + cName.getName()
                         , iae);
          //Failed ti create a action
          if (instance == null) {
               instance = ACTION_UNKNOWN;
          actionMap.put(cName.getName(), instance);
          return (Action) instance;
     }You refer to actions with their class so you will get some compile type safety.
>
My remaining questions are:
1. How does the Action object determine the currently
active InternalFrame?Component c = getPermanentFocusOwner();
SwingUtilities.getAncestorOfClass(JInternalFrame.class, c);
2. Since all commands have associated Action object
and all are instantiated at startup time, would this
take up too much resources?Action don't take much time to create since they are way small then components(buttuns, tables, ...)
With the ActionManager aproach you will also get lazy loading of actions, but won't help you much since you need to show the menus and toolbars imediatly

Need Help with FCP7 import and plug in question.

Hello,
I just registered and would like to ask two questions. Everything else I'll use the search function for but I need the answer right away.
Ok First question. I have a mac pro at home and a intel macbook both with FCS4 during the holiday season I'd like to work on a project on my laptop. Now I have all my files on a 2.0 USB drive(I know its not that fast for video) but this is only temp. while traveling. I'm trying to figure out why it wont import the files into another project. Even when I'm at my home Mac Pro when I try to import a projects footage into another project it doesn't read it. This comes up
"File Error: 0 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied 254 unknown"
But all the files will work in the project that it was originally captured too.
If this helps the codec is sonys HDV 1080 60i converted to Apple ProRes 422(HQ) which I found out I should only use the regular Apple ProRes 422. I'm stuck now b/c I cannot import the files into a new project to work in on my laptop. Plus my Macbook doesn't have Firewire800 so I have no way to get the footage from tape to my laptop other then my USB Hard Drive.
I also have problem importing the files in Motion and Cinema Tools they also are not recognizing the files which is getting me upset since they are FCP7 generated files after I convert them to ProRes.
Whenever I try to import/use the files in anything other the original project they are grey'ed out.
I'm also confused on how to import effects plug-ins I've downloaded effects from apple only to have now directions to import them into the program.
Sorry for the Noob questions I'm a film student learning FCP7 by myself so I have the upper hand come next semester. Thanks in advance.

Can't tell for sure but it sounds as if the drive is not properly formatted, or you do not have correct read/write permissions for it. There is no way you can use this drive with HQ video. You're going to get into problem if you even try.

Maximum Number Of Records Import Manager can handle.

Hi Guys,
I want to know the maximum number of records Import Manager can import / handle at a time.
Thanks in advance .
Best Regards,
Ramchandra Kalkar.

Amol,
The reference guide lists the limit at 50,000 records.
My experience is that this is not necessarily the case. To me it seems as though the maximum import depends somewhat on the number of fields you are trying to import. Meaning you can probably import 50,000 records if the file only contains two columns/fields, but if the file contains many columns/fields you probably will encounter difficulty trying to import 50,000 records at a time.

Import Manager - Exception Handling

Hi All,
While importing the records using MDIS, some files are not getting imported and go to the "Structural Exceptions".
In order to find out the exceptions, i tried to login into Import manager using the following:
Type : Port
Remote System : MDC R/3 & ERP
Port : DEBMDM06R3_ERP_In [Exeption]
Once I click on Finish button, i get a dialogue box saying "Logon error : Could not retreive source file for the port DEBMDM06R3_ERP_In".
Please suggest what should be done when i get such errors.
Thanks and Regards,
Sravan

Hi Sravan,
To know the reason for exceptions, check the Exception and Log folders over the path
<MDM Installable Directory>\Server\Distributions\<Servername_databasetype>\<Repository>\Inbound\<Remote System>\<Port Code>\
Since MDIS has already executed the import, your input file might have moved into other folders depending on the import status hence there would not be any file in Ready folder beacuse of file you are not able to open the Import Manager.

Jitesh Talreja

Export-Import and Naming convention question

All,
Newbie here. Have a question related to the naming convention for SAP R/3 system and XI manual export/import process. We are currently in the development environment where our R/3 systems are named as D55CLNT400, D56CLNT300 etc (first 3 characters are the system id, and last 3 are the client number.) This is per the XI best practices convention.
The question i have is - if we name the technical system as above - and export the configuration objects from the Dev to Test environment - where the R/3 systems are named as T55CLNT400, T56CLNT300 (similar naming structure). Does it mean that we need to manually change almost all of the items in the Test environment on the configuration side (like business sytem name, interface determination, receiver determination etc)
Is this the correct way or are we missing something??? I would have preferred a way - where we needed to only update the communication channel parameters.
Thanks.

In the SLD, create three Business System Groups: DEV, QAS and PRD.
In each of these groups, you must have the relevant application servers (in your case, R/3s) and one integration server (XI).
Then, for each Business System in Group DEV, define a transport target in QAS group.
In your case, the transport landscape should be like this:
D55CLNT400 -> T55CLNT400
D56CLNT300 -> T56CLNT300
XI_DEV -> XI_QAS
Do the same for the QAS group (defining transport targets in PRD group). Observe that you need to have the same number of Business Systems in each group for this to work properly.
Now, when you transport your configuration objects from XI_DEV to XI_QAS, all the Business Systems in DEV landscape will be replaced for the equivalent ones in QAS landscape.

Event handling question

I am very new to Swing....I am very confused about how event handling works. I created a button called "remove" and a list. When a user selects an item in the list and then clicks on the remove button, then the item should be deleted from the list. I am able to display the list and the button. I create a listener for the button in a separate class as follows:
class MyActionListener implements ActionListener
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e)
if(e.getActionCommand().equals("remove"))
{System.out.println("remove works");
Now my problem is ..how do i access the list in this class..because my list is set up in the other class (main class). Because if i try to do anything with the list in this class it shows the compile time error saying it cannot identify what list is. Please tell me how i can use the list in the MyActionListener class. Here is the code that sets up the list:
public abstract class VetNet extends JFrame implements ListSelectionListener
static DefaultListModel listM= new DefaultListModel();
static DefaultListModel listModel;
public static void main (String[] args)throws IOException
JPanel panel= new JPanel();
JLabel j=new JLabel("Welcome");
panel.add(j,BorderLayout.NORTH);
BufferedReader stdin=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
StringTokenizer reader;
reader=new StringTokenizer(stdin.readLine());
String first_name=reader.nextToken();
while(!first_name.equals("end"))
{ String last_name=reader.nextToken();
add_name(first_name,last_name);
reader=new StringTokenizer(stdin.readLine());
first_name=reader.nextToken();
}//while
DefaultListModel listModel=new DefaultListModel();
listModel=return_fname();
String first= (String)(listModel.firstElement());
JList sampleJList= new JList(listModel);
sampleJList.setVisibleRowCount(2);
// sampleJList.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
//sampleJList.setSelectedIndex(0);
//sampleJList.addListSelectionListener(sampleJList);
JScrollPane listPane=new JScrollPane(sampleJList);
panel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(60,60,30,60));
panel.add(listPane);
JButton b1=new JButton("add");
panel.add(b1);
JButton b2=new JButton("remove");
panel.add(b2);
JButton b3=new JButton("edit");
panel.add(b3);
JFrame frame = new JFrame ("VetNet");
frame.getContentPane().add(panel);
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
 public void windowClosing (WindowEvent e) { System.exit(0); }
frame.pack ();
 frame.setVisible(true);
//MyActionListener myListener= new MyActionListener();
b1.addActionListener(new MyActionListener());
b2.addActionListener(new MyActionListener());
b3.addActionListener(new MyActionListener());
//sampleJList.addActionListener(new MyActionListener());
}//main
private static void add_name(String f_name, String l_name)
listM.addElement(l_name+ ", " + f_name);
}//method add_fname
private static DefaultListModel return_fname()
return listM;
}//method return_fname

Ok! This is the LONG answer, but I think you would benefit from reading it all.
Making something public means that it can be accessed from other classes; however, it must be accessed using an object(instance) of that class. This means, if I have a class MyJFrame that extends JFrame, then in another class, I can do this:
MyJFrame myFrame = new MyJFrame();
myFrame.dispose();
myFrame.isShowing = false;
Given that dispose() is a public method and isShowing is a public boolean variable that's in the MyJFrame object. Note: the opposite of public is private meaning that the variable/function is only accessible within the class. Also, in all my examples, I assume each class has access to the others.(in same Package, or imported)
There are times at which you do not want to call a function on a given object or you want variables that are defined in the CLASS context, not the OBJECT context. As in, I have the class MyJFrame, and I always want to be able to access every object(instance) of this class that I've created. I would accomplish this using a static variable. Define the variable the same place you would define any other variable of the class, but inclued the reserved word "static". As in:
public class MyJFrame{
public static Vector allFrames = new Vector();
then in my contructor, I would add this frame to the vector:
public MyFrame(){
allFrames.add(this);
Now that I have this set up, I can access all the frames I've made from anywhere using MyJFrame.allFrames (note that I use the CLASS name, and I don't have an instance of the object anywhere)
Another use of static is for functions. Going along with the same example, I could add a closeAllJFrames function:
public static void closeAllJFrames(){
for(int x=0; x<allFrames.size(); x++){
allFrames.elementAt(x).dispose();
then I can call this function from any other class using: MyJFrame.closeAllJFrames();
Also worth noting, this function could be placed in any other class(other than inner classes, which cannot have static functions), you'd just need to put MyJFrame. in front of the allFrames.
One last tip is: If you use code like I've shown, consider using a Hashtable instead of a Vector if you need to access certain frames(or whatevers) from afar. This will keep you from iterating thru the Vector and will decrease overhead significantly.
Hope this helps

Simple Error Handling Question

I know that in general, when you are handling an error, you can either pass the back by adding a throws declaration to the method in question, or surround with try/catch and handle the error.
What do you do if you want the error to force the application to stop? Just send a simple output message and then stop.
Thx,
hqd

What do you do if you want the error to force the
application to stop? Just send a simple output
message and then stop.You should stop wanting that. If the code in method X
encounters an error it can't deal with, it should
throw that error to whoever calls it. It is the
responsibility of the caller to decide what to do,
not the responsibility of method X.But the buck has to stop somewhere. Are you saying that only the main method should ever stop a program?
Maybe this is one of the gaps in my understanding of good overall design, but it seems perfectly valid to me to have certain methods that, when they error, I know I always want my application to stop. Passing it along up the chain might involve adding a whole bunch of throws declarations.... why... just to say we have no methods that stop the application. Say this piece of code is not longer used in the spot that throws it's possible error up the chain.... now you have to remove all those throws.... isn't this ripple effect on our code bad design?
What am I missing?
Thanks,
hqd

Portal Import/Export problems and questions

I recently tried to promote our dev stuff to the prod using both the exp/imp scripts (following the Imp/Exp whitepaper) and the built-in application export. The first time went without a hitch; however, after a few report updates in dev, I tried it again, and now I can't even get the Welcome page to appear. (Yes, I did import that page). The page finishes loading but nothing shows up on screen. I can login in to the change the DADs but nill to Portal. Any ideas how to even get in to see if the stuff imported?
Along those lines, after searching through these threads, and reading the documentation, I get the general feel that imp/exp are not at 100%. So what would be the procedure to do production promotions? Do I have to delete stuff (apps & pages) on the PROD server, and then import? If so what (apps?, security?, login server?) do I delete?
Rich

Thanks for the post Indira. Here are the answers to the questions.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What version of the Oracle Portal are you using?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I am using Oracle Portal version 3.0.6.3.3
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Did you make any changes to the Welcome page when you imported it?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, I did not make any changes to the Welcome page when I imported it.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>When you say that the page comes up blank, did you check the HTML source to see if there is anything in there?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Yes, and there is something in there. Its the W3C tag and <HTML></HTML>. That's it. (more on this below)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What kind of portlets are in the page that you had imported?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I imported one application (with a combination of Reports, Forms, Dyn Pages, and LOV's), 7 pages with portlets based on all those components in tabbed interfaces on each page. For example, each page has 4 tabs with one portlet (running one of the reports) on each tab.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Are you able to get to the pages that you imported, through the Navigator. Can you edit/customize the page?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Well this is funny, since I couldn't get to anything, I thought I was a goner since I couldn't log in to get to the main page and fix all this, not to mention to see if the app imported at all. So, I went to my DEV box, found out what the page_id was for the out-of-the-box default page, typed it into the URL and I got the Login link. I logged in and I can see that the app imported. I can also see the pages, but with no portlets. When I try to add portlets, I get USER DEFINED ERRORS galore. So I have to recreate the pages from scratch (not a very good thing to be doing in PROD)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Try creating another page in your new prod instance and making that your default home page. Please can you check if that is working.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
As I mentioned above, this is basically what I had to do. I did another promotion last night, and since the pages are what I thought the trouble was, I didn't import them. I just imported sso, sec, and the app. To my dismay, the same thing happened. I call portal home and I get a blank screen (empty HTML tags). So there I was, well into the night, creating pages in PROD so that we could have a site to show today.
Since someone else gave me the CD to install, I wasn't aware of the version I had and its bugs/issues. I have started the process of upgrading versions, but would like to get a solid idea of whats going with promotions before I do.
Thanks,

Only importing 3 of 20 questions in the GIFT file

I followed Vish's instructions carefully on how to import the GIFT files into adobe captivate 7. I used a txt format. There are 20 questions, but it keeps stopping the import after question 3 and putting in a result side. I cannot see a syntax error in my document. What could possibly cause this problem? I spent so much time on formatting 300 questions and answer sets.

Hi there, I see that the problem was that the txt file had to be encoded as a UTF-8 format. Thank you

I can't import more than 5 questions in GIFT format, even though I am not getting any errors during the process.

I created a GIFT file with 25 questions, but when I import into Captivate 8.0.1.242 I can only see the first 5 questions. I have triple-checked my import file for any syntax or other problems, but it seems perfectly fine.
Any ideas?

The info on Adobe's online help needs to be updated. You must save your text file in UTF-8 format, otherwise only the first five questions will be imported.

How to schedule imports using MDIS

Dear MDM experts,
Pls let me know if there is a way to schedule MDIS for imports rather than have it do it 24/7,e.g. need MDIS to work only at 6 pm everyday.
Pls let me know what parametr influences that.
Thanks.
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
As per my understanding there is no need to create any scheduled tasks for MDIS import because even if u do so then u need to keep the MDIS in stopped mode.
If the MDIS is not in stopped mode then even if u schedule any MDIS import task at 6.00 am it will only run the MDIS but it wont find any files to import coz whenever u place any file in the inbound port it gets sucked instantly.
So for this scheduled task to run MDIS shud be in stopped mode or else it will import the file instantly.
Try creating a scheduled task to start the services of MDIS if this is possible then whatever files that are present inbound port MDIS will import.
But I dont think it is possible to schedule to start the services.
Hope dis helps u
Regards Tejas.....
