InfoViewBranding changes not showing

Hello,
I followed steps below for branding changes on 4.1 but I cannot get changes to show. Below are steps I've done.
1.) Unpackaged com.businessobjects.webpath.InfoViewBranding.jar
2.) Made my changes to customize.css and added my images and removed sample folder so now I have structure.
     \META-INF
     \web
          \css
               customize.css
          \images
3.) Repackaged it and placed at <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins
4.) Stopped Tomcat
4.) Deployed files to Tomcat
5.) Started Tomcat
Now in SAP BusinessObjects\tomcat\work\Catalina\localhost\BOE\eclipse\plugins I can see my webpath.InfoViewBranding folder with same structure as above with my new images. Everything looks good. The changes however dont show in the launchpad. I restarted Tomcat serveral times, deleted and recreated localhost folder, cleared my own browser cache. Everything I can think of but its not using webpath.InfoViewBranding folder. Still using default. Any other ideas? The folder structure is absolutley correct.
Thank You

It was due to the manifest.mf file being blank after repackaging. Jason gave me this resolution below onTutorial: Branding and Theming of BI launch pad. This was my fix.
Alex,
I finally figured out the problem, at least what was keeping my branding from working, and it sounds like you may be experiencing the same thing. It had to do with the jar command to repackage the com.businessobjects.webpath.InfoViewBranding.jar file in the SAP Business Objects BI Customization Guide. The command they tell you to use is:
jar cf com.businessobjects.webpath.InfoViewBranding.jar web META-INF
This command creates a new (blank) MANIFEST.MF file in the META-INF directory. I use the following command instead:
jar cfm com.businessobjects.webpath.InfoViewBranding.jar MANIFEST.MF web
NOTE: I moved the MANIFEST.MF file out of the META-INF folder and had it at the same level as the web folder just to make typing the command easier. It will create a META-INF folder and include the MANIFEST.MF file.
After finding the blank MANIFEST.MF file, I used this Java tutorial on JAR files to figure out what was causing the issue: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/jar/index.html
Specifically, the details of the command I used above to package the manifest file is located here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/jar/modman.html
Hope this helps,
Jason

  • Incopy changes not showing up in InDesign

    I have an InCopy story in which the editor made several edits and applied several style sheets; however, those changes are not showing up in the InDesign file. The InDesign file does not show that the story is "out of date." When I open the actual INCX file, the changes are in the file and if I unlink the story from InDesign, delete the text, then re-link the story, the changes now appear.
    We were able to fix this instance and did not loose any text; however, I just wondered if anyone else has had this happen and if there's a known cause for this.

    I think your understanding is correct - when double clicked it DOES open the appropriate InDesign file, and it DOES clear the "Package" icon in the assignments palette next to the assignment. But it DOES NOT show the modified incopy "incx" files as has been modified.
    Normally it would show it needing to be modified, in which case, like you said, you are prompted (well, there's not a dialog box at that time, but you see the yellow warning icon next to the "incx" file in the Links or Assignments palettes) to update the link(s).
    Again this is a hit or miss proposition. The designer and I worked on this for a few hours last week. My contention was that it had something to do with where she had the Exported InCopy "incx" files; where she created the assignment (clicking on the Change button in the New Assignment dialog); or where she put the "indp" package when it she received the modified edits. So we tinkered with changing these paths. We also switched from "Exporting Layer", which is our normal process to just Exporting an individual selected article. Using the "Exporting Layer" and keeping the assignment in the default path (with the InDesign file) seemed to work. But we didn't do enough of that scenario to prove it consistently worked. She will be doing that over the next few live jobs.
    But none of those really made sense to me as the culprit. I'm contemplating my next move for testing. Of course today with my local testing, I couldn't reproduce the problem. We're on Window's servers via SMB, maybe that's got something to do with it.

  • Contribute changes not showing after site update

    A few months ago I added a top level navigation item to a client site.  That made changes to the code for every page in the site, but the changes the client had made with Contribute 4 still showed in browsers.
    Just posted the pages for another addition to top level nav.  This again made changes to the code on every page of the site.  This time the Contribute changes do not show in browsers.
    The Contribute files are still in their folders on the server.
    Navigation to the pages modified in Contribute has not changed.
    Is there a simple fix to wake up the Contribute files?

    If there are any errors in yur code, FB will not compile
    anything new.
    Verify that you do not have any errors in the Problems pane.
    Then try Menu, Project, Clean.

  • Changes not showing

    hi,
    when i compare two models changes in views and packages from relational model don`t showing. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Philip,
    When I compare two different models or when I compare a data dictionary with a model,
    the packages and the packages bodies are not part of this comparison,
    you can select the packages in the menus but if you have different code in the packages is not showed in the result neither in the DDL preview,
    different privileges or any other property are not showed also,
    let me know if you understand the requirement now,
    I'm conscience that this requirement has been asked for other users in the past,
    I mean,
    If I'm developing a package in the SQL Developer and after end the development I want to refresh the code of the package that I have in the model,
    I can open the model directly in the SQL Developer and edit the package, copy and paste the code to the package in the model and commit the change to the subversion,
    that's really helpful but if I want to merge my model with the changes in the code to other model, no differences will be appear in the result comparison also no possibility to compare it with other databases (datadictionary)
    Thanks in advance

  • Changes not showing up

    Can anyone see what's going on here- the bottom of several of my blog pages are not showing up correctly- the copyright line at bottom, the "next" and "previous". I keep changing, adjusting, it all looks right in Iweb; I've been empting cacge, refreshing.

    Is it a PDF form or web form?
    For PDF forms, you need to regenerate and redistribute them everytime you make a change
    For web forms, changes automatically show up online. If they don't its likely you are modifying a duplicate of the form, and not the one posted.
    If that's not the case can you provide more details on your workflow leading up to this issue?

  • Changes not showing up on export.

    I have been trying to export photos to print and my changes that are showing up in LightRoom 1.1 are not showing up in my exports. Is this because I'm still using the demo version or does that matter at all. I have tried several tiems so any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Okay I actually figured out what was going on. Some of the changes were showing up but some weren't. I went back and reviewed the video tutorial I realized that I was setting the colors wrong. I was setting it to the Pro setting for colors instead of the normal setting or adobe setting. I exported again with the colors changed and it looked fine. Thanks for the suggestion. Hopefully someone will learn from my post.

  • Changes not showing after successfully building up.

    Hello everybody,
    I am new to the forum and also a new novice in Flex.
    I have written an application. I have a page called
    SchedAppointments.mxml, well, after writing the code and building
    the project successfully the page was displayed successfully as per
    requirements. After that, I made certain changes in the page
    (SchedAppointments.mxml), then saved it and build it successfully
    again. Now the problem is that the changes is not showing in the
    browser. What I am viewing in the browser is exactly the same as I
    saw before making the new changes.
    Can anybody tell me why its happening?
    Thanking you in advance,

  • Public google calendar changes not showing on Pre

    I set up a google account for myself and for my wife.  I shared my calendar info with my wife.  On her google account, I added my calendar and a public calendar from my kid's school.  If I make a change to my calendar the change shows up in google online and on the pre.  If the admin of the public calendar makes a change, it shows up in google online, but not on the pre.  I can remove her google account from the pre and re-add and the public calendar will be correct... UNTIL they make another change.
    Has anyone else seen this?
    I'm running pre software version 1.1.0 on both my pre and my wife's and both are seeing the same problem with the same calendar, although we're each looking at our own google calendar which contains the other's shared calendar and the school calendar.
    I added the school calendar to each of our google accounts by url but can't imagine why google online would update but not the pre.  It's not that the pre's aren't syncing because we can each add calendar events, on the pre or in our google accounts online, and see them show up on both devices.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    @djmpre
    When in the Calendar - Is the google calendar even an option in the drop down menu? Is it recognizing it, but not pulling your scheduled events? Ifit is there, are you able to add an event to the PRE, does it appear on the web version?
    if for some reason its not listed at all, select preferences and accounts, and make sure you see your google calendar listed there, and set as default - if not, i would try adding again and see if you are getting an error, or what happens - if it appears to add smoothly, check the drop down on the main calendar page again - If you are still not getting the calendar, I would check your settings/preferences on the google side - 
    I cant get the birthday or sports calender to sync with the PRE either -  I did noticed on the web base version of the sports calendar, if i click an event it will let me copy it to my "personal" calendar and then they will appear on my PRE 

  • ITunes Match changes not showing on iOS device

    I updated a bunch of stuff in iTunes (typos, recategorized genres, etc).  I manually told iTunes Match to update, but when I go to my iPhone 5, it does not reflect the changes.  Is there somethiung I need to do on my iPhone 5 to force an update?

    Are the tracks that are not updating downloaded to your iPhone? If so you'll need to delete the tracks from the device before the changes will show up.

  • Word 2013 Track Changes Not Showing New Author Changes

    The .doc file has multiple comments, deletions and changes (all showing in bubbles) but when the author makes any new changes, the bubble fails to appear and the text remains in blue. If the same author deletes the text moments later in the same session,
    with or without save, the bubble appears saying that the author made a deletion. There are also a few occurrences of past changes having a redline without the bubble. All files are local to a machine added to a domain with a domain user. I am unsure of the
    Word version that created the file as it was emailed from another company. I've tried copying and pasting to a new format/same format and saving into a new format (.docx.) Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Cory

    Our office has been struggling with a related problem that maybe you can solve. Basically, the same person is repeatedly given a different reviewer name as they work in a document (presumably every time the document is autosaved). For example, if I work
    for an hour adding edits or comments on a document by the time I'm ready to share it it will look like five different people made changes.
    The Inspect Document fix works great to remove all the extra reviewer names, but it changes them all to 'Author'. Do you know how to then either a) change 'Author' to the reviewer's actual name or b) stop Office from assigning multiple names to the same
    reviewer. Also, we've tried checking 'Always use these values regardless of sign in' under General to no avail.
    Thanks - your fix is the closest we've come to a solution and it's greatly appreciated.

  • Field description changes not showing on one client only

    Hello!
    I have a network with several clients all running SAP.  I have modified lots of field descriptions (by pressing CTRL double click on the field).
    This is great - except I have one PC where the field descriptions show the original text, rather than my updated descriptions.  This happens even when other SAP users login to this PC.
    Can you explain why one PC is not showing the modified field descriptions?
    Thank you
    Omam-B

    What do you mean?  I have restarted the PC and reinstalled SAP.
    What else is there to restart?
    Thanks

  • CSS Changes not showing in Design View

    I'm just coming over from GoLive (and their layout grid) so
    I'm not entirely familiar with DreamWeaver CS3 and CSS.
    However, whenever I make changes in a CSS sheet (and save
    them) they are not immediately rendered in the Design View. They
    show up just fine if I "Preview in Browser" though. I can even
    close the html page and reopen it and sometimes they will show up,
    but not usually. Oh, and the "Refresh Design View" button is greyed
    out and doesn't do anything.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Yes, that seems to be the case. I ran a validation check on
    the html page (it was coded in XHTML 1.0 strict) and came up with 2
    errors related to the CSS features I was trying to use.
    Thanks!
