JSR168 Portlest contents deployment on the Portal 7.01

Hello Everybody,
I was searching on how we can integrate JSR168 application on the SAP EP 7.01 system. So far, I found out that JSR168 is available from NW CE onwards.
But same time, I saw messages stating that we can deploy WAR file with JSR168 contents on Portal and create the iView to use that application.
Here is my question:
I was provided with WAR file containing JSR168 contents and I was told to deploy on the Portal and create the iview. I know that we can't directly deploy WAR file on the Portal.
So, what are the options available so that we can deploy and use this application on Portal 7.01 system?
If you could point to any help links or provide the steps to do it, it would be really helpful.
Will it work by creating EAR file in NWDS and add this WAR file and deploy on the server? If yes, what steps do I need to take care of while doing this?
Thanks,
Bhavik

Thanks Nitesh for your response.
But before I got your response, we could create EAR file from NWDS and added WAR file manually into that EAR file and then deployed EAR file on the Portal.
But now, question is, How can we run the JSR168 portlet contents on the Portal?
Based on the comments I recieved from the team who developed portlet, this portlet application can't run using any URL. So, there is no option to create URL iview and run that application.
Do you know how we can run the JSR168 portlet application on the SAP Portal?
Thanks,
Bhavik

Page cannot be displayed message ONLY on the content area of the portal

Hi All,
I am using Netweaver Portal 7.0 and the portal works fine if logged in as an end user. But when I'm logged in as Administrator and whenever I try to create a portal object (iview or pages etc), I get a page cannot be displayed message ONLY on the content area of the portal. It is happening quite frequently, any clue what is wrong here?
Thanks for your help
-Mike

Hi
This could sometimes happen because of multiple users working on the same content .

Is TRex required to display content from Content Server in the Portal?

Hi all gurus!
A short question: do you have to have TRex (or any other search/index engine) when you want to display content from a SAP Content Server in the portal? Or does the content server has its own search/index engine?
Best regards
Benny Lange

Hi,
Sap content server can be added in the portal as an KM repository. So configuration is needed. But when finished you can open and look at the content server like they are normal KM folders. TREX on the other hand is advisable in order to have the means to quickly find something in your content server. Otherwise it is like any other stupid file structure. lots of files and lots of folders.
Depending on you portal version you need to install a bussiness pack for document managment to get the content server visable in KM

Closing Server Session of a BSP application deployed on the Portal

I have a BSP application deployed on the Portal v. NW07. This BSP application is a tab sitting besides other applications such as My Staff of MSS.
The BSP sets a lock like "CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE' " and the backend system is SAP R/3 4.7.
QUESTION: How can I get the server session to terminate when the user navigates from the tab corresponding to my BSP application to the other tabs.
Currently, the session doesn't even close when I logoff completely from the Portal. This BSP used to be deployed to users alone within the
IE browser and I was able to handle session management using JavaScript code similar to what's in page 'session_single_frame.htm' of BSP 'SYSTEM'. However, when deployed to the Portal, that piece
of code doesn't seem to do anything.
"Supports Portal Integration" is checked and the BSP application is stateful.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Achille

for managing the backend session, all you have to do at the BSP app level is to set the supports portal integration flag, so that it generates the domain relaxation scripts.
it (ending backendsession) is the job of portal's DSM terminator. More on this can be read from http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ca/a9a7408f031414e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

Timeout on Deployment of the Portal from Workshop

Hi,
I have downloaded the WebLogic Portal from the Workshop following the
directions in the Portal Development Guide, it is a plain portal without
any portlets.
When I try to execute the Run As ->Server the WLS open in command window
and appears to start however the Deployment fails with the message that
the server has timeouted.
Any suggestions or work arounds?
Thanks,
Paul

If you are running both workshop and portal on a less powerful machine, sometimes you can get timeouts
You can check these below items if it is related to performance
Portal Domain starts autonomy and search services by default. You can disable them by setting the WLP_SEARCH_OPTION="" as shown below. If you are on windows machine, those processes are not getting killed from task manager. Restart the machine and use the new settings
if "%WLP_SEARCH_OPTION%"=="" (
@REM If not set externally, this portal domain will start the full Autonomy engine stack.
set WLP_SEARCH_OPTION=""
Make sure your domain is not in debug mode by going to the console

Content Migration into the Portal Environment

We have a handbook of more than 1200 pages which have to be migrated into the portal environment.
These pages after migrating should be able to be edited while in the editor.
Can anyone direct me how to achieve that. I really appreciate your response. Please let me know if any information is needed.
Thanks,

If the source material is in a Microsoft Office format (MS Word, for example) and if you have Collaboration Server, you can bulk upload the handbook into a collaboration project.
Collaboration has a WebEdit feature (assuming you installed it in your environment) that you can use to check out, edit and check in documents in the browser without downloading them to your local machine.
The users would need to have at least Edit access to the documents through project security.

Portal Content Deployment - History

Hello Gurus
Is there is a way to figure out the list of all the portal contents deployed in the portal. ( including date and time).
On the ABAP stack we have import history and we can check list of transports, in same way how can see the list of portal contents deplyed to PORTALS.
Appreciate your help.
Regards
Rrs

Ratan,
Interesting topic - it would depend on how your group has been exporting content (assuming that you are talking about Portal Content and not Java Development). By default, the export tool will overwrite the previous export file if you don't have a procedure in place to make new files for each export. Other then that, I don't think that there is a log of activity or content. For this I nornally require my content admins for Portals to create a unique folder for each project, a sub-foler for each section, and a single file for each export - adding a revision number to the end of each file as they export them.
A long explination for - the system doesn't do it but you can setup something so you can manage it yourself.
My method above helps to keep things in order and you can go look back at the export files and what was in them for this purpose. I also change the export/import directory for the Dev to QA Portal so Basis doesn't need to baby-sit the developers moving content between those two systems and so Developers don't need access to the file system. (Dev export directory is on an NFS between Dev and QA - QA import points to the NFS Dev export folder - so you can just import without doing anything). Somewhat like TMS - for prod I still have an NFS but Basis moves the files to the right import directory.
Hope that helps somewhat to get you going. May seem like overkill but when you get 5-10 portal developers moving quickly, it helps to keep it all in synch with the ECC transports!!

Deploying an existing WAR file into the Portal

I have downloaded the Enterprise Portal and the SAP Netweaver Developer Studio (NDS) and have succeeded in creating a couple of projects of the Hello World variety and deployed them on the Portal! So far, so good.
The problem I have is that need to deploy on the Portal an existing JSP/Struts application of ours which is available as a Web Archive (WAR) file.
The problem is that I cannot find a way of deploying an existing WAR file on the Portal either via a Project or otherwise. I have found an entry in the Help files with the NDS which sounds promising, as it is entitled Import a .WAR File into a new project. However, the menu entry it says you should use (File ‑> Import ‑> MDK: Import a web archive (.WAR) into a new project) this last entry does not exist on my installation of NDS.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi Mustafa (and All) - thanks you very much for your answers, which has enabled me to make good progress.
I have created a project in the Deploy Tool, imported a simple WAR file into it, loaded to project and depployed it on my instance of the Portal - or at least I have deployed it as far as the Deploy Tool is concerned.
However, when I try to find it in the Portal in order to assign it to an iView in the Portal content, I can't find any evidence of its existence!!
As another 'tack' in the NDS I have created an 'Enterprise Application Project', into which I appear to have imported the WAR file - but I cant package this as a PAR file, which is what I seem to need to do to get it into an iView on the Portal. To create a PAR package I seem to need to create a 'Portal Application Project' - but I can't find a way of getting the WAR file into that!!
Any further advice would be greatefully received.
Thanks for your help to date and thanks in advance for any more you may be able to give.
Regards,
Dave

Starting and Stopping the Portal

Hi all
   After deploying my PAR, I am restarting the whole <b>SAP Instance</b> in the Server.
1. Is this the right way ???
2. Is there any other easy way to restart/stop the PORTAL alone instead of touching the SAP Instance???
Thanks
Kay

Hi Kay,
You are right about custom login changes.But Normaly if you develop portal application and upload the PAr file ,you do not have to restart the instance.Portal runtime takes care of droping the existing copy of the PAR or replacing with newer version.
This is what i get from help
Portal Archive Files Deployment Cycle
Use
The deployment procedure for a Portal Archive (PAR) file consists of two steps:
Uploading the PAR file into the application repository
Notifying all Portal Runtime (PRT) nodes that a new version of the application is available
Activities
Uploading a PAR File to the Application Repository
There is only one application repository and all PRT nodes and PAR files on the J2EE Engine cluster share the same content. The PAR upload procedure stores the whole archive in the underlying persistence layer. It also extracts all the information that requires fast access at runtime from the portalapp.xml.
Modifying PRT Nodes
Once the upload to the application repository is completed, the upload process notifies all PRT nodes. This step updates thelocal deployment of the portal application on each server. The update of the local deployment requires runtime deployment capabilities, and that is why all portal applications can be released. A PRT node:
·        Checks if the application is already loaded and drops the corresponding instance.
This step also checks and drops all entities (applications, components and services) that depend on the current application.
·        Starts the deployment process.
This process gets the PAR file from the repository and updates the local deployment by expanding the archive content.
·        Restarts all portal applications that have been dropped.
The main purpose of the local deployment is to improve performance at runtime by providing fast access to classes and to portal application resources. The local deployment avoids additional round trips to the application repository and, in that sense, must be considered as a cache for portal applications.
Deployment Policy
The local deployment is done using the DeploymentPolicy property declared in the portalapp.xml file:
·        If this property is set to 5.0
The deployment is backwards compatible with the EP50 version of the portal. The old folder is not removed and the deployment process simply overrides the folder with the new content.
·        If the DeploymentPolicy property is missing
A regular deployment is performed; the old deployment folder is removed and then replaced by the new one.
The deployment logic assumes that the application does not store any configuration locally; everything must be stored in the repository.
For more information about the DeploymentPolicy property, see Application-Config Element Properties.

How can I bind an IIS to the Portal 6.0 on a linux server

Dear all,
I am very new to the topic of Enterprise Portal.
Our intention is, to develop .NET IViews and deploy them in the Enterprise Portal.
The Enterprise Portal Server is set up on a linux machine.
The Guy who did install the Portal Server, has no idea how to "integrate" the Microsoft IIS to the Portal.
After deploying my .net Component, i tried to view this component in the portal (by right clicking the mouse on the Component in in the .NET Solutions Explorer).
This gives me the following error:
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occured while processing a request for:
iView:N/A
Component Name: N/A
Could not find portal application com.sap.portal.dotnet.framework.
Exception id: 02:06.......
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
I think that this has something in common with integrating the IIS on the Linux Machine, and maybe additionaly installing the pdk.net on the IIS webserver machine which should be used.
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Can anyone of you explain me the cause of this error?

Hi,
Developing .Net Iviews for SAP EP is best done using the PDK for .net available for download on SDN.
We are using this succesfully with a Portal Installed on AIX.
The .Net PDK itself contains a plugin in Visual Studio .Net, a SAP .Net Framework (I think this corresponds to error message) that has to be installed on a .Net server and 2 components to be deployed to the portal that allow you to do some configuration for .Net applications (e.g. the server where the SAP.Net runtime is on,...)
Please have a look into the documentation available here on SDN :
http://www.sdn.sap.com > SAP Netweaver Platform > .Net Interoperability => In the right-side column on the bottom under "HELP" you will find the PDK.Net documentation guides.
This documentation is rather clear and helpfull !

HTTP Headers - enabling caching and compression with the portal?

Has anyone configured their web server (IIS or Apache) or use a commercial product to flawlessly cache and compress all content generated by the portal?
Compression and caching is critical for making our portal based applictions work for overseas users. It should be doable, just taking advantage of standard HTTP protocols, but implementing this a complex system like the portal is tricky, we seem to be generating different values in the HTTP Headers for the same types of files (such as CSS).
We are running Apache so can't take advantage of the built in compression capabilities of the .net portal. We are running the java vervion. 6.1 mp1, sql server 2000 (portal, search, collab, publisher, studio, analytics, custom .net and java portlets on remote server).
Basically our strategy is to compress all outgoing static and dynamic text content (html, CSS, javascript), and to cache all static files (CSS, javascript, images) for 6 months to a year depending on file type.
Here are some links on the subjects of caching and compression that I have compiled:

Hi Scott,
Does Weblogic platform 8.1 supports netscape? We have developed a portal which

Netscape?
Pls reply

The

If IE and/or a recent version of Netscape/Mozilla is not possible then
there are
really only two options:
1) Faster client hardware - not likely to be an acceptable solution.
2) Minimize the number of portlets and the complexity within the portlets.
Neither of these solutions are a great answer, but the 4.7 series of
Netscape is
getting pretty old. Having said that, we've got customers who want to
continue
to use IE 4 :)
Again, though, this problem is, I'm afraid out of our hands. It is the
client
rendering time that is the issue.

Alternative ways of Content deployment

Hi,
Can anyone suggest me the alternatives of Content deployment job? Instead of going with CD, is there any other way to help us to achieve the same?

Hi Shweta,
For SharePoint 2010 content deployment , you can also consider backup &restore and WSP package.

And there are some 3rd Party Content Deployment Tools:

Also you could write a web service or delve into the land of SharePoint Object Model coding, that scans the content of your staging environment and maps it into production.

Content Deployment across Publishing site.

Dear All, We are now having a requirement in SharePoint 2013 where we will have to move content from one site collection to another site collection. Here we are facing an errors as both the site collections are enabled with publishing features. Can any one
provide us to perform Content Deployment between 2 site collections having publishing features enabled.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure I follow the question. Quick Deployment is just a security setting that allows certain users to tag specific content to be pushed to the target location outside of a regular content deployment. The process is still the same. So
if you can do a regular deployment and your user has the ability to do a quick deployment then you should be able to tag content for a quick deploy.
