Integration of J2EE application with weblogic portal

Hi guys,
I have an application hosted on an iplanet web server. This application uses servlet 2.2, jsp 1.1 of J2EE platform.
And I have a microsoft application running on .NET platform.
I want integrate above 2 applications into webloigc 8.1 portal. What are the different ways in which i can do this and where can i find specific material on this.
advance thanks for your help

Basically I am saying that your options are
1. Screenscraping the apps into portlets
2. Using SSO to login to the apps, but keepin them separate
3. Using Web Services to consume parts of the apps and exposing those as portlets
For our application we do 2 and 3. In many cases we just create portlets that represents views into other j2ee apps. When the users click on something, we launch the j2ee app in a popup browser. The users are already signed on, and taken to a specific detail page, add page or something within the app directly.
Hope this helps.

Integrating existing Web application with Oracle Portal

Hi,
I have an existing application which is purely written in servlets and which is in use for quite some time. I have a requirement now of moving this application onto the Oracle Portal.
I was just wondering if we have any quick meanse of doing this or we have to re develop from scratch in oracle Portal server(ByDefining page, Page templates..etc).
Advance thanks for your help
Thanks
Sreedhar

What do you mean with "moving this application onto the Oracle Portal"?
The best expedite way is use in the portal a LINK that direct your users to the actual app.
Another quick thing you could do is use the IFRAME TAG (only works in IE). This way you can embed your app in Portal (show it in some area in portal)
Then comes the complex things:
- You can activate SSO to your applications ( which is not THAT difficult)
- You can PORTLATIZATE your app, this doesn't means that you have to rewrite all, but still you need to write in a "Oracle Java Way" some thing to get it work..
You can see this link if you're using portal 10.1.2:

IBM Cognos 8 BI Integration with Weblogic portal

Hi,
In our project we need to integrate IBM Cognos 8 BI portlets with Weblogic portal 10.3.
1. How to integrate Cognos ?
2. How to enable SSO between Portals & Cognos? Cognos should use the portal users credentials for authentication
Please share me some useful links and sample code to proceed.
Thanks & regards,

Integration of third party application on Weblogic Portal 10.3

Hi,
Need help on how can we integrate a third party application running on HTTP with weblogic portal application.
SCENARIO
we have a separate linux box running an application using PHP, MySQL & Apache.
We want to render this on portal using CPP (Content Presenter Portlets) or HTML/JSP portlets.
One way I can think of is to use IFrame in HTML/JSP portlets & involve the URL of this application.
Is there anyway to use WSRP?
I read the documentation on WSRP - It says that even a non-portal application can be integrated but that application should be having portlets running.
But this 3rd party doesn't have any portlets running.
Can anyone help on the same?

Iframe portlets are certainly possible and the simplest approach. You can also look at using Clipper portlets: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15919_01/wlp.1032/e14244/clipper.htm#g1108243

Integrating J2EE application with SQL Server Reporting Services

Hello everybody,
I want to integrate a J2EE application with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. In fact, it is the first time to be involved in developing an interoperability component between .Net web service and Java application. So I have learned for some time how to pass this challenge. Moreover, I found the following virtual lab is an excellent starting point "MSDN Virtual Lab: Implementing SQL Server Reporting Services with a Java Enterprise Edition (EE) Application" [http://msevents.microsoft.com/CUI/WebCastEventDetails.aspx?EventID=1032315323&EventCategory=3&culture=en-US&CountryCode=US]
After going through the lab, I tried to apply the same code in my machine but I have stuck with the following error:

Announcing: Developing JSF Portlets with WebLogic Portal Whitepaper

Just Released: Developing JSF Portlets with WebLogic Portal Whitepaper
A supplemental developer's guide has been published to help guide WLP 10.x customers that wish to use JSF as the web framework for building portlets on WebLogic Portal. This is a sizable document (150 pages) that covers a large number of topics. It also coaches developers on best practices and common pitfalls.
Important: It also clarifies the supported configuration of JSF within Portal Web Projects. Workshop for WebLogic by default configures a web project in a configuration that is not supported by WebLogic Portal. The guide explains how to address this:
* Change from the unsupported MyFaces JSF implementation to the supported Sun Reference Implementation (RI)
* Change from the unsupported "client" STATE_SAVING_METHOD to the supported "server"
The guide can be downloaded here:

SSO to J2EE application from SAP Portal

Hi
I am trying to do SSO from SAP Portal to a J2EE engine which runs on SAP Web AS.
Here are my queries
1. When I deploy a J2EE application on Web AS , I dont get any login screen. How can I make sure that if a user wants to access this J2EE application he should get a login screen and provide his login credentials first, only then would he be able to access the J2EE application.
2.When I am done with Part 1. If a user tries to access this J2EE application from the Portal (asuming the user Id's in Portal and J2EE application are same and both are in the same domain) , I should not get any login screen and should be able to view the J2EE application.
3.I want to use SAP Logon tickets generated by the Portal to enable SSO.
I have done all the necessary configurations in the J2EE server.
1. Imported the Portal's verify.der certificate.
2. Adjusted the login modules stack for the application accordingly.
Can anyone please help me out with this or throw some light.
Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Vivek
PS - Points will be definitely rewarded

Hi Vivek,
Let me give you the solution for both questions differently.
Ques 1. When I deploy a J2EE application on Web AS , I dont get any login screen. How can I make sure that if a user wants to access this J2EE application he should get a login screen and provide his login credentials first, only then would he be able to access the J2EE application.
Ans: For doing this in the code of your J2EE application you have to write a if statement which will check if the user ID is coming from the backend or not. If yes then you display that logon page else you just pass that username which is coming from backend and displ;ay the page accordingly.
Ques 2.When I am done with Part 1. If a user tries to access this J2EE application from the Portal (asuming the user Id's in Portal and J2EE application are same and both are in the same domain) , I should not get any login screen and should be able to view the J2EE application.
Ans: Yes, this is what I am explaining you. Even I had also made same kind of J2EE application in which if the user is coming from the backend then he/she will look the J2EE screen else if the username is not coming then he will se the Login screen. Exactly same as what are looking for.
3.I want to use SAP Logon tickets generated by the Portal to enable SSO.
Ans: I have used User Mapping instead of SAP Logon ticket. Well that is also the option for SSO but personally I think User Mapping is easy and better way for implementing SSO.
I dont know whether this will help you or not. Please let me know. I can definately help if you want to implement SSO using User Maping.
Regards
Pravesh
PS: Please dont forget to reward points.

Oracle UCM with Weblogic portals

Does any one has idea working with oracle UCM with Weblogic portals. Can anyone suggest any tutorial in online.

Provided you are using the Oracle UCM Content Adapter for WLP (UCM SPI), using content sourced from UCM in WLP applications is not different from using content from other Repositories.
See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13155_01/wlp/docs103/ucm_adapter/index.html for information on using the Adapter and for tips on content modeling.

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 use servlets in portal web application in Weblogic Portal 4.0

We are developing a Portal Web application using Weblogic Portal 4.0 where in we
have the following scenario. one JSP in webflow of a portlet calls the PipeLine
which does some processing and calls the servlet which is having the typical download
functionality. The servlet is supposed to read the data from the pipeline session
and create a CSV String that is dumped to the client browser. The problem is even
we are doing response.setContentType("application/save") in the servlet it is
still displaying the content as html in the portlet. I guess since all our request
are send to the webflow contolling servlet and it is setting the content type
and hence our servlet is not working. How do I solve this problem? Thanks Yogesh
