JAWS for Portal

Hi all - does anyone know if the screen reader JAWS can be used in conjunction with the Portal?  I keep seeing references to JAWS being functional with the SAP GUI, but I haven't found whether or not it can be used for the Portal.  If anyone knows if this is possible, please let me know!  Is there doco somewhere which talks about JAWS and if it can be used with the Portal?
Regards,
Steve

  • Change Directory server for Portal Server 6.2

    Hi there,
    I have the following problem with Portal Server 6.2 configuration which hopefully someone here will be able to help me with.
    Basically our current setup is the Sun Portal Server 6.2, ID server 6.1 and Directory server all sitting on one (Solaris 9) box. We now wish to separate the Portal / ID server components and the Directory Server component to separate boxes. In portal server 6.0 i think there was a pssetup tool which allowed configuration of a directory server which populated it with the necessary data for portal and ID server. The directory server we will be installing to will not necessarily be a clean install, i.e. it may already be populated with data.
    Is there some way therefore to re-configure the existing directory server to allow us to point our portal / ID server at it?
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Laurence.

    This can be done. You need to import the portal/identity server's schema into your new directory server and then export your existing directory server's content and import it into the new one.

  • Help, need to change IP address on host database for Portal

    Hi folks,
    Rather urgent assistance (as usual) needed. I have an installation working correctly on a pair of Win2k machines, one as the 9i database, one as the 9iAS/Portal. The app server has 2 NIC cards, one with public IP address (which is ok), one on the LAN. I need to reconfigure the LAN addresses on both the machines. Initial Portal install done without DNS, i.e. actual server/host addresses entered in the configuration.
    I have tried changing all of the TNS/Listner settings and the NIC card IP addresses and restarting the machines. The likes of SQLPlus work ok, with the TNS connect name allowing over the LAN access into the database with the new LAN addresses. I cannot seem to get the 9iAS/Portal to find the repository with the new addresses.
    Can someone help please? I can't find the answer in any documentation or other postings.
    Thanks in advance

    There are other modes of operation for the plasst as well. I am listing them below but the formatting will make it difficult to read. If you like I can email it to you.

    Configuring Portal when the HTTP server host name of the Infrastructure is changed
    Run the following from the $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/opca dir
    ptlasst.bat -mode SSOPARTNERCONFIG -i typical -sdad portal -host myApache.domain.com -port 7777 -silent -verbose
    NOTE:
    (1) This command would create a new Portal partner application in the SSO to reflect the changes of the Infrastructure. Before running this command please ensure to configure the SSO with the correct hostname by running the ssocfg.bat script located in the Infrastructure install (<infra_home>\sso\bin).
    The value for -host parameter will be the IP address of the infrastructure server and -port will be the port where the infrastructure http server is running on.
    Configuring Portal when the HTTP server host name of the Middle tier is changed
    ptlasst.bat -mode MIDTIER -i typical -host myApache.domain.com -port 7777 -ldap_h myOID.domain.com -ldap_p 389 -ldap_w welcome -pwd secret123 -portal_only -oh /home/oracle -chost myHostname.domain.com -cport_i 8001 -cport_a 8000 -wc_i_pwd invalidator -mc false -mi true -silent -verbose
    NOTE :
    (1) The -host value should match the serverName value of the httpd.conf
    (2) The -chost should be updated with the correct webcache hostname. In a default iAS midtier install the -host is same as the -chost.
    The value for -host parameter will be the IP address of the midtier(portal) server and -port will be the port where the portal is running on.
    Parameter Description Default Value Mandatory

  • What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?

    Hi all,
      1.What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?
      2.what effect it does on the ume options to be choosen??
      3.for the purpose of integration of r3,bw and crm on portal and crm 4.0 60.2.3 business package which option of stack(java or abap or both)will be good option and which ume option while installation should be choosen?
    regards
    Rajendra

    Hi Rajendra,
    The NetWeaver Installation Master Guide offers some good scenarios on the pros and cons:
    https://websmp201.sapag.de/~sapidb/011000358700005412792005E.pdf
    In a nutshell:
    ABAP+JAVA
    Pros
    - Decrease # of servers required to administer the portal
    - Less costly
    Cons
    - Upgrades could be dependent on ABAP and Java release level
    - Additional load on the server due to ABAP stack
    - Limited scalability
    JAVA and ABAP on separate server
    Pros
    - Improved performance
    - Allows each system to be single-use purpose therefore downtime does not affect other components
    - More scalable
    Cons
    - Adds complexity to landscape
    - Additional costs

  • Abap+java stack for Portal 7.0 and MI - User Data Source

    The SAP pre-requisites for Portal and MI (Mobile Infrastructure) 7.0 is an ABAP and Java Stack. If you install an AS ABAP + Java, the UME is automatically set up to use the ABAP user management of the same AS installation. What does this mean? The user store will be created in ABAP, for both the Portal and MI.
    The impact of this is portal users management is in ABAP. This configuration by design cannot be connected to LDAP Active directory for user authentication.
    Please let me know , if some body had already face similar issue and come up with the solution.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi Surya ,
    When you install portal or any NW component with ABAP stack , ABAP stack hold precidence over the JAVA Stack , refer to this link to have more idea on this .

  • Class not found Exception for Portal 4.0 console

     

    Hi Ravi,
    For Portal questions, we have a newsgroup called
    weblogic.developer.interest.personalization that would be able to help you
    more on this subject.
    In the meantime, it sounds as if the installation of WLS 6.1sp1 wasn't done
    properly. I would recommend reinstalling from scratch. Between the
    installation of WLS 6.1sp1 and WLP 4.0, you can try running WLS 6.1 in the
    mydomain domain, and see if you can access the console. If you can, then
    you can continue with the WLP 4.0 installation.

  • Basic configuration in GRC 10 for portals

    Hi Gurus,
    Could you please tell me the basic configuration details in GRC 10 for portals.
    Thanks,
    Mukesh

    Hi Mukesh,
    You can refer to https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/sno/ui_entry/entry.htm?param=69765F6D6F64653D3030312669765F7361…
    However there is no such guide on Portal integration with GRC, you might need to follow below steps:
    1- Create one HTTP type RFC connection between GRC and Portal system.
    2- Create System Alias in portal system for GRC system
    3- Deploy the GRC Portal content in Portal system
    5-Portal content comes with 5 work-sets and one security role.You can assign the portal role that comes with the Portal content to user in Portal and also GRC roles to the same user in GRC system.
    Hope this helps.

  • Single file custom logging for portal service in 7.31

    Hello Experts,
    I have a portal service.
    The service writes sensitive data to the DB and therefore I need tracing mechanism.
    Until now I've used a custom txt file but now I want to use the SAP J2EE logging infrastructure (for performance, identifying user sessions etc...)
    Since the severity of the messages will be set to 'info' I don't want to write the log entries to 'defaultTrace.trc', I want to write it to a custom file.
    I'm aware of 'ForceSingleTraceFile' parameter but where can I set the logging properties? (in older portals I could use logger.xml in my portal component project and set a custom log file but as far as I understand 'logger.xml' is not supported anymore and its parameters are ignored).
    Where can I find the documentation for setting logging properties for portal service in 7.31?
    J2EE/Portal version is 7.31 SP7.
    Regards,
    Omri

    hi omri,

    Our sales rep told us yesterday that Workshop for WLS9 will be available around the end of the year.
    Until then there is no upgrade path for current workshop apps either. That means that apps developed in Workshop 8.1 won't run in WLS9 apparently.
