Info about the log traces in Activity Data Collector

Hi,
I have configured the activity data collector by setting the following properties in ADC and restarted the service
Activate Data Collection :true
Additional File Formats: --(not set anythng left blank)
Base File Name: Portal Activity
Directory Name: portalActivityTraces
File Encoding : UTF-8
Hour in the day to close all files, in GMT : 0
Main File Format : %Orfo.t(dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss,GMT+5.5)%%Stab%%Orfo.ct%%Stab%%Orfo.in%%Stab%%Orfo.un%%Stab%%Orfo.bt%%Stab%%Orfo.pu%%Stab%%Orfo.rh(referer)%%Snl%
Max Buffer size :500KB
Max File Size : 10240 KB
The files are created in the folder called "Portal Activity Traces" But the issue is with the name of the log files getting created
Since i have not set any additional file formats, The log files consist of main file formats
the file names are like this
portalActivity_29893750_1254305061537.txt.open in this
wat does the time stamp "1254305061537" refer? Plz explain
some files are of type text document and some are of type "open" wat does tis mean?
If i set t "Hour in the day to close all files"
to 0 wen does it write the log files? Is it at 12? after that will it create a new file?
n in the main file format i have set the time to GMT5.5 (since IST is GMT5.5) but im not getting the proper time format
Plz help me out
Thanks in Advance

Sowmya

Hi Prasanna,
Thanks for the reply.
Actually there are about 3 to 4 files which are of type .open and they have created long back.Are those files still getting populated.If we set the "hour to close all files" to 0 it should close the open files and create the new(fresh) files for the next day right?
According to the documentation in help portal, "Files may be closed before reaching this limit(Max File Size), as all files are closed at the hour specified in the Hour in the day to close all files property."
Then how come some old files are still getting populated?
Midnight means wat time in particular? Plz explain
About timestamp is it the time the file was created in some format?
If anyone knows plz explain the format of timestamp

Some info about database updation automatically based on date..

HI..Data base experts Can u give some suggestions...
some info about the system table date and system form...

Hi
Nagaraj
Small Task...
in hr table i shown in the image..
active employee is there..
in administration staring date is there...
if any body will give date and then check box is true =y will be stored in the db..
to day date 05 01 12
if i give date 10 01 13 in staring date if i press add button
in check box column will be saved =Y and date will be saved in 10 01 13 not today date bcz i given 100113
ok
so.
days are running                        db valueat comobo box           db value at date(i given)

in sap particular table date is storing...
so ..if the date what i had given(100113) will be matches to the system date
if           check box value entered(i had)    Yes
this will become 'N'
automatically
not manually...................
Is it possible..........

TS3579 I found this useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data. I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up

I found this (TS3579: If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac Learn about If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac) useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data. I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up in Finder.

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

Info about the RFC

Hi,
I have to work on RFC FM. Can any body give me the info about the RFC? especially for Function module?
Will give Reward points
regards,Ram

Hi
RFC (Remote Function Call) is similar to the general SAP fun module: except that in the attributes you click the radio button: RFC enabled;
and you will be passing an Import parameter DESTINATION to it.
Other code and usage will be similar to any fun module;
Have a look at any fun module in SE37 to understand better about the different components of Fun modules;
Refer this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/22/042518488911d189490000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
Function Modules doc
Function Modules;
Check this matter.
Function Modules are Global ABAP programs created by SAP for reusable purpose.they have IMPORT,EXPORT and TABLE parameters, and EXCEPTIONS to through when error occurs.
You can create them from TCode SE37.
Go through the following doc:
Function modules are cross-program, reusable procedures that are organized into function groups, and whose functions are implemented between the statements FUNCTION and ENDFUNCTION. Function modules and their interfaces are created in the Function Builder.
Function Module Interfaces
The parameter interface of a function module is defined in the Function Builder. It includes the definition of interface parameters and the specification of exceptions that can be triggered by a function module. The Function Builder automatically generates comment lines below the FUNCTION statement in the source code of the function module, which represent the interface of the function module with the following syntax:
Syntax
... [IMPORTING parameters]
[EXPORTING parameters]
[CHANGING parameters]
[TABLES table_parameters]
[{RAISING|EXCEPTIONS} exc1 exc2 ...]
The syntax and semantics of IMPORTING, EXPORTING, CHANGING, RAISING, and EXCEPTIONS mainly correspond to the definition of method interfaces with [CLASS-]METHODS. The additional option of defining table parameters using TABLES is obsolete.
Interface parameters
The interface parameters are defined on the relevant tab pages in the Function Builder.
IMPORTING parameters are input parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input parameter. The content of the actual parameter is passed to the input parameter when the call is made. The content of an input parameter for which 'pass by reference' is defined cannot be changed in the function module.
EXPORTING parameters are output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter can be specified for every output parameter. The content of an output parameter that is defined for 'pass by value' is transferred to the actual parameter if the function module is completed without errors. An output parameter that is defined for pass by reference is not initialized when the function module is called.
CHANGING parameters are input and output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input or output parameter. When the function module is called, the content of the actual parameter is passed to the input/output parameter, and when the function module is completed, the content of the input/output parameter is passed to the actual parameter.
TABLES parameters are table parameters. Table parameters are obsolete CHANGING parameters that are typed as standard tables with a header line. If an internal table without a header line or a table body is passed as an actual parameter to a formal parameter of this type, an empty local header line is generated in the function module. If an internal table with a header line is used as an actual parameter, both the table body and the header line are passed to the function module. Pass by value is not possible in formal parameters defined using TABLES. Formal parameters defined with TABLES can be replaced by formal parameters defined with CHANGING. A local work area can be created for the internal table in the function module by using the addition LIKE LINE OF itab of the DATA statement.
Exceptions
The exception of a function module are defined on the Exceptions tab page in the Function Builder. Here you can select exception classes to define whether class-based exceptions are declared or non-class-based exception are defined. Class-based exceptions are represented in the above syntax by RAISING, and non-class-based exceptions are represented by EXCEPTIONS.
The addition RAISING is used to declare class-based exceptions that can be propagated from the function module to the caller. Exceptions in the categories CX_STATIC_CHECK and CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK must be explicitly declared, otherwise a propagation can lead to an interface violation. A violation of the interface leads to the treatable exception CX_SY_NO_HANDLER. Exceptions of the category CX_NO_CHECK are implicitly always declared. The declaration of exceptions of the category CX_STATIC_CHECK is statically checked in the syntax check. For exceptions of the category CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK, the check is not performed until runtime. In a function module in which class-based exceptions are declared with the RAISING addition, the statement CATCH SYSTEM-EXCEPTIONS cannot be used. Instead, the relevant treatable exceptions should be handled in a TRY control structure.
The addition EXCEPTIONS is used to define a list of non-class-based exceptions that can be triggered in the function module using the statements RAISE or MESSAGE RAISING. Exceptions defined in this way - as with formal parameters - are bound to the function module and cannot be propagated. If an exception of this type is triggered in a function module, and no return value has been assigned to it with the homonymous addition EXCEPTIONS of the CALL FUNCTION statement when the call was made, this leads to a runtime error.
Note
For new developments after release 6.10, SAP recommends that you work with class-based exceptions that are independent of the function module.
RFC is a technology which is used to access a functions (Modules) from
the remote systems.
If a function module is set as remote enabled which can be access from
the remote system via RFC.Eg: U can access the Remote enabled function modules in ur VB,Webdynpro,Java,Visual composer program.
A function module can be set as remote enabled by SE37->Go to ur FM->click the option Button "remote enabled".
But Normal function modules can not accessd from the remote system.
Good Example for RFC enabled function module is : BAPI(Business Application Programming Interface)
Note: All BAPIs are Remote enabled but not all remote enabled function modules are BAPI.
CALLING A FUNCTION MODULE:
1)In U ABAP Editor --> Click "Patter" ---> Selection Option Button "Call Function"
--> Write the Corresponding FM name --> Hit Enter
2)The appropriate import ,export Parameters will be displayed in ur editor
3)Pass the Values Here.

I need to record client IP with the Activity Data Collector.

I need to record the user activity with the Activity Data Collector.
One of the data record is the IP address of the client.
How I can do?
In support of the log format that data does not exist.
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/47/8ab49e1b141e1ee10000000a42189d/content.htm]

Hi,
You are absolutely right, this is simply not supported.
Anyhow, in most cases this might also not make too much sense, as the access to the server often (almost "normally") goes via some kind of proxy; in such a case, one would only see one (or two or so if the proxy is clustered itself) IP address in the logs.
On the other hand, just in such scenarios, the proxy is normally able to forward the original client IP address as an additional header variable. If this is the case, then "rfo.rh(X-Forwarded-For)" could do the trick.
Hope it helps

Logging just exceptions and 'critical' TopLink info to the log

I'm trying to just log exceptions and other 'critical' info that occur within TopLink to the log rather than getting lots of SQL statements, unit of work info etc.
I'm running TopLink 9.0.3.5 in WebLogic Server 7.0 (SP4) using container managed persistence for Entity Beans.
If I startup WebLogic with the toplink.log.level=INFO option then I get SQL statements, unit of work info, JTS registration info as well as any exceptions that are logged.
If I leave the logging like this my WebLogic log will likely be huge and performance degraded from writing a lot of info that will never be used.
If I startup WebLogic with the toplink.log.level=NONE option then I don't get any log statements, not even exception info (although obviously clients still get the exception stack). I need to get the exceptions and 'critical' TopLink info in the WebLogic log because I cannot rely on getting the information from client logs.
In the TopLink for WebLogic 2.5.1 product the default logging behaviour was to log only exceptions and other 'critical' info to the log.
Is there a way to configure TopLink 9.0.3 so that only exceptions and any other 'critical' TopLink information is written to the log (and SQL statements, unit of work info and JTS registration info is not written).
Thanks.

You don't mention which version of 10g you have but there is a bug in all versions 10.1.2.0.2 and newer in that usernames are no longer being inserted in the Apache log files when portal pages are viewed. It was somewhat hit or miss before, but good enough to get a feeling of what was being used Now, it does not even provide that. Bug number reference from Metalink is 5638057. It is shown as "Closed -- not feasible to fix", but will be addressed in 11.0
I am experimenting with getting this data a couple of ways. One, if you happen to use WebTrends, you can manually set the authenticated users field to whatever you'd like so I am using the API's to retrieve the username and the user company (organization) and concatenating them together.
The other option I am considering is a procedure call in the footer of each page that automatically updates a new table with the session id, username, page, timestamp, and whatever other information you may want each time the page is visited. This table can then be dumped to a data file if desired or left in the database and analyzed using a tool like Discoverer.

thx,
the example below shows some basic information.
Display myDisplay = Display.getDisplay(this);
Displayable dis = myDisplay.getCurrent();
int high = dis.getHeight();
int width = dis.getWidth();
boolean isCol = myDisplay.isColor();
int nubCol = myDisplay.numColors();more detailed information about model, aren't available through the standard api, on blackberry's there some restricted apis that provide these device-type and other detailed information...
for more basic information, just look at the class-methods from display and displayable...

Oracle designer 6i. I am running sql against the views to get info about the current schema.

Hi Neil,
Thanks for your suggestion. I thought I tried all combinations of database, catalog and schema names and all different orders to connect, associate the connection and generate entities, but it seems I did not try this one. I did exactly what you suggest, except for the fact that I connected to the database before associating the connection to the project.
It partially works now. I can generate Entities. Once I have generated an entity, all generated private member variables become red underlined, because table "null" for columns "xyz" could not be resolved. And the drop down box for columns in the JPA Details pane still doesn't get populated. The latter can be fixed by selecting the proper schema for the entity, which results in a @Table(schema="xyz") annotation. However, I expected this to be done automatically when the Entity was generated.
The error about not being able to resolve the columns still exists. I tried to add a @Column(name="ASDF") annotation (because the columns names are all capital, while the member variables are lowercase), but that doesn't resolve the problem.
I hope this gives you a clue to solve the problem!

Activity Data Collector & Web Analytics Tool

Hello,
Has anyone used a Web Analytics tool, such as WebTrends, to analyze the Activity Data Collector logs/files?
I would appreciate your input on this matter. We are looking to tack/report on the portal usage (iViews, pages, etc).
Regards,
Omar

Hi Omar,
Why not go for Portal Activity Report to monitor Portal Activities and also users.
The portal activity report feature enables portal administrators to gather and present information about portal activity, including information about the users who logged on to the portal and about the content that was viewed.
The feature includes an iView that can display a portal activity report with one of the following:
a) Information about the number of users who logged on during a specified period of time
This type of portal activity report also displays a graphic showing the change in the number of users logged on over time.
b) Information about the users who logged on
c) Information about the number of users who visited each page and iView.

[Portal Activity Report|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/58/728ea01cf64fff996b827f2a06f9b1/frameset.htm]

Activating Activity Data Collector

Hi,
I have configured the activity Data Collector according to the below documentation.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/47/8ac2e51b141e1ee10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
But it appears that the ADC only starts colllecting logs, if the Portal Activity Report Service is also turned on. I thought ADC was supposed to be a competing activity collection technology and I dont understand this dependancy.
Am I right in this or am I missing something else?
Thanks
Raj Balakrishnan

Hello,
If you needed a graphical front-end or multiple reporting capabilities, one would need to build something themselves as described at the link above, which may not be convenient, nor offer all the usage stats you are looking for. The ADC simply does not offer a graphical front-end and does not come with integrated reports.
Otherwise a far easier solution is to switch to a 3rd party application like Click Stream SAP Portal analyzing solution from Sweetlets. (http://www.sweetlets.com/click_stream_overview.html or http://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/clickstream) This plug n' play application offers various SAP Portal usage reports complete with a visually appealing Flex frontend.
Good luck.

Activity Data Collector field

Hi all,
I'm working with the Activity Data Collector so that I can see which KM files have been accessed. I'm trying to get the main file format field to display for me the ip address of the person who accessed the file in KM. This is a pretty typical thing to display in web server log files, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it here.
Also, I'm looking for a list of the properties available for use with the rfo.up code.
Here is the web site that I'm using for my information on this:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/46/e4de7fdc8e72dde10000000a114a6b/content.htm
Thanks!

Stephen -
We are using the activity collector, but I have not seen IP address as a parameter.
I have configured ours to use:
%Orfo.sid%%Stab%%Orfo.t(d-MMM-yyyy hh:mm:ss,GMT)%%Stab%%Orfo.un%%Stab%%Orfo.qs%%Stab%%Orfo.bt%%Stab%%Orfo.uid%%Stab%%Orfo.un%%Stab%%Okmc.et%%Stab%%Okmc.linktype%%Stab%%Okmc.folder%%Stab%%Okmc.displayname%%Stab%%Okmc.targeturl%%Stab%%Okmc.hr%%Stab%%Okmc.g%%Stab%%Okmc.hor%%Stab%%Okmc.resourcetype%%Stab%%Okmc.contenttype%%Stab%%Okmc.created%%Stab%%Okmc.createdby%%Stab%%Okmc.modified%%Stab%%Okmc.modifiedby%%Snl%
However, several parameters (like SID, User Name, UID) do not get logged for Web Page Composer files, which is disappointing.
Also, I would like to log the file's folder (Okmc.folder) location, but that does not get logged for any files.
I have looked at the config, but I am not sure if I am missing anything.
Has anyone noticed this? Or do you have any issues with logging for WPC files?

User IP Address in ADC (Activity Data Collector)

Hi all,
I would like to use Activity Data Collector. First previews of the generated logs looks fine but I miss the logged User IP Address.
