Make Default - Content Server

Hi Gurus,
We have a situation where we have multiple content servers in use in DMS. Currently when you check in a Document you have to select which Content Server you want to check the document into. Considering one of these severs is in Chile and one is in Finland it makes sense to default this server for the user groups based on their geographical location.
I have been trying to work this little piece of config out but I can not make it work as I do not know what I should be configuring in this case.
Please Let me know
Thanks and regards
Palaniappan

Hi All
I have found the required configuratiion and the issue is resolved
Thanks

Reformat Content Server Error

Sometimes we get an LDAP error. This causes UCM to display a content server error page to the user. It has the message that 'content server failed' and then some small detail. The page has a navigation bar on the left.
We would like to catch errors like this and format a nice error page that the user is not stunned with.
I thought about a custom component in the check credentials service that would do a redirect to our new web page but not sure this would work.
Any ideas would be a help.
Thanks

You could also build a component that contains a new error page template (with the same name as the original one and with a load order that'll make the content server show your custom template instead of the original one). You do not have to change any of the services for this to work and your end users will always see the same template whenever they get an error.

Content Server 6.40 Presents a Save As dialog for ContentServer.dll file

hi All
we have installed successfully the content server 6.40 on a windows 2008 with iis 7 environment. The installation wen successfully with no errors. however when we run a test by calling the URL http://<server>:<port>/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?serverInfo URL, instead of getting a response, we are getting a save as file dialog to save the dll file. Also, after the installation, even with the install website tick checked, the website was not installed. we had to do the installation of the website manually for the port.
With content server 620 on windows 2000 this was never the case
if anywone has an idea on how to resolve the issue, please advice
Regards
Ronny

GOT the Solution
to anyone else who could be going through the same issue, see if the solution below solves your issue
The website should get created if all the roles in IIS 7.0 are installed. Therefore, please try to install the IIS 7.0 by selecting
all the roles followed by installation of the SAP Content Server. By doing so, websites should be created automatically.
In the IIS 7.0, all the roles are not selected during the installation by default. Please make sure all the below roles are included and IIS 7.0 is installed, as per the installation manual for the Content Server on Windows 2008:

Can't get to log in page, can't log in to Content Server

Hi,
I have installed Content Server on my desktop. I took almost all of the default settings. Saw no errors in log. Both Content Service and Content Admin Service are running correctly. Since 'new' install did not work, I have also tried to 'update' it.
Following instructions exist in install doc. The log in page itself does not come up. What am I missing?
Go to the Content Server homepage (portal page). By default, the address is http://[host_name]/[web_root], for example http://master1/server/.
UCM is installed in C:\Oracle\ucm\server - so what would be it's URL for homepage?
Thanks in advance.
Umesh

Hi
The correct format for accessing the portal page of CS is : http://hostname:port/webrelativeroott/portal.htm
Before this make sure that the configurations are done properly in the webserver if apache is being used , httpd.conf.
Hope this helps
Thanks

DMS content server error

Hello SAP Experts!
I have following error when exeuting test program for checking content server RSCMST:
HTTP error: 500 Internal Server Error
It is appearing continuosly every day. Only solution I have found now is restaring Server when DMS is installed. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 reboots to make it available back again.
Of course this is related with problems that people cannot check in documents on DMS server.
thanks for any suggestions!
Michal

Content Server not working correctly

Hello,
I am having problems with my Tandberg Content Server. For several years, we have used the Tandberg Content Server (TCS) in combination with our Tandberg Management Server (TMS) to schedule and record video conferences. I schedule 60 video conferences a week to roughly 20 rooms, using the TMS. Of these, about 14 video conferences per week are recorded.
Originally, I only had one recording alias on the TCS set up, and it worked fine. But I recently added a second recording alias, due to the growing number of requests for recordings of the video conferences. It seemed to go okay.
Now, however, the Content Server isn't working quite right. It will record two different video conferences at the same time, but once it's finished encoding them, the link that you get to send to people is messed up: often (but not always) the link merges two seperate video conferences together in one video. Two one-hour video conferences will be merged together in one two-hour recorded conference.
The problem only occurs with video conferences that occur at the same time. Strangely, if I search the Content Server's F drive, under Data/Media, the recordings are all there, and they are seperate. They are only joined together on the Content Server link.
I have made sure that we are indeed recording on seperate recording aliases.
Because the videos in the Data/Media bin are always labled something like O1110292903-0593923929.wmv, I can use guesswork to reconstruct a valid URL to get a working link, but it's a lot of extra work: I want to be able to log in to the Content Server admin interface and be able to send someone a link in a few minutes.
Any ideas on what's going wrong? I created a trouble ticket with Cisco earlier in the week, but have not heard back from Cisco tech support, so I thought I'd open it to the Cisco community.

HI Ron. Good morning. Since our webex the last time, I do believe we can use participant templates in the mean time until we find out whats going on when using TMS this way. When using the recording drop down and all the systems aren't registered to Gatekeeper seems to be the trigger here, but to get you running, this is what I propose we try and do here.
You may have to purge the Content Server out of TMS so TMS doesn't "know" about the IP address of the Content Server.
You will have to examine your routing and preferred MCU in routing here, and make the two changes:
Administrative Tools>Configuration>Conference Settings. All the way at the bottom you will see:
I had to change this to Always and Preferred MCU type in routing to MPS. This is logical since this is the only MCU you have and you need the MCU in each booking (from my understanding of what you said during the webex).
So:
1) Jot down all the conferences that have the Content Server involved, and remove the recording from each conference.
2) Purge the Content Server from TMS.
3) Add participant template with just the IP address of the content server: Booking>Participant Templates and build one like shown below. The number field should be the address of the content server and IP zone should be IP zone for your system.
Go ahead and save the template.
Make booking with this template and another endpoint (don't add the MPS since it should automatically). Check the connection settings and the MPS should be call the IP of the TCS and the other endpoint.
Click Save conference.
If the conference saves ok, build another with a different room and same template again, and click save conference.
The caveat is that when calling the IP of the TCS, the TCS will use what you have configured as the default recording template under Configuration>Site Settings
Just choose which one you want to use all the time if you can.
The way it shows on the TCS is:

Content Server refresh

guys,
we are planning a 3 system landscape here for ECC - DEV, QA and PROD. And a two system landscape for Content server - DEV and PROD.
I am planning to connect R/3 DEV and QA to DEV content server (2 different repositories) and R/3 PROD to PROD content server. Now, if i think about it, whenever i refresh R/3 QA with the R/3 PROD data, the document links in QA wouldnt make anymore because the data in DEV content server wouldnt match anymore. So does this mean I will also have to refresh the DEV content server with PROD content server everytime I refresh R/3? Is there an easier way out ?
Please advise as to what you all have seen or done in other projects.
thanks,
RS

Hi,
I had the same scenario in the past and I did below things:
1) Dev and QA system connected to same content server but with different repositories.
2) Repository of QA system has same name as production server repository.
3) So, when we refresh QA from PRD then same content repository will come in the quality system, you just need to change content repository settings in QA system. After do the below step:
Relocating Using Export and Import
    Ensure that no new data is saved to the affected repositories during the relocation procedure.
    Use report RSCMSEX to export the repository.
    Create a repository of the same name on the target content server and change the Customizing of the repository so that it points to the target content server.
    Import the data into the target repository using report RSCMSIM.
    Delete the relocated repositories from the source content server.
The program sapkprotp controls the export and import. sapkprotp is started on the application server by default. If required, you can start sapkprotp on the content server or on another server. To set this up, enter an RFC destination when starting the report. Set the path of the transport file relative to sapkprotp.
You should use this option if sapkprotp is not available on the application server (so far, sapkprotp is not available for AS/400). You should also use it if the content server is at a remote location, to avoid the data being transferred twice over the WAN.
Thanks

Content Server Check-in

Dear All,
Good day, I need help regarding content profiles for content server, I want to know if I can create a specific metadata filed related to specific area such as HR (empno, emp name, department, job title....etc), I don't want to make all the required fileds available (content id, type, security group,..etc
How can I manipulate fields in the Rules? and then attached these rules to profiles? and what is the use of the trigger field within the profiles?where will it be important?
can I customize the check-in page adding fonts, colors, whatever fields, images as well as metadata fields? if there is a document for this I will be grateful.
Thanks in Advance
Adham Hattab

Lot many things in a single thread
I can create a specific metadata filed related to specific area such as HR <I did not get this question clearly but You can create all you want to>
I don't want to make all the required fileds available (content id, type, security group,..etc <You first need to assigne them some default value and make them hidden>
How can I manipulate fields in the Rules? By selecting a metadata filed you may assign some dynamic value, hide them or make then read only.
and then attached these rules to profiles? <yes this will invoke the rule, when the Contributor selects a particular profile.>
and what is the use of the trigger field within the profiles?where will it be important?<trigger field is the thing that binds together a profile and a rule. So even if you try check in something from standard checkin page. But if for the value of trigger filed there exist a profile. Then rules associated with that profile would run>
can I customize the check-in page adding fonts, colors, whatever fields, images as well as metadata fields? if there is a document for this I will be grateful. <two ways to do this either create custom checkin pages or create a new skin all together>
cheers,
sapan

Assign specific metadata for folder structures in the Content Server

Assign specific metadata for folder structures in the Content Server
Hi to all,
I working with Oracle Content Server 10g and Desktop Integration Suite and I will like to know how can I restrict or enable some specific metadatas from the default metadata, for differents content folder. This is different from the function: Information Field Inherit Configuration.
tnks!

I am a bit unclear about your question:
- do you ask about metadata assigned to folders, or
- do you ask about metadata assigned to items in folders?
Starting from #2, if you forget about folders, there is standard functionality that you can use to restrict, enable, ... metadata for an item. Read this chapter: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e10978/c04_metadata.htm#sthref288 to get full details.
I am not sure whether you can use anything of this functionality (profiles, option lists, etc.) when you check in a new folder. I doubt it, though. The logic of folders is slightly different - whilst e.g. profiles correspond to "content item", you don't find such a correspondence in folder's hierarchy (why a folder could not contain various content types, for instance?)
Last question is, from where you want to use this functionality - even for items. In 10g, Desktop Integration Suite's functionality was rather limited (often it was supposed that a user will just 'throw' an item to a folder, and metadata will be inherited from folders). You might have to upgrade your DIS to 11g; it should work even with 10g Content Server, but make sure you verify it before mass upgrade. In 11g, DIS should offer profiles, etc. with full capabilities.

Using Content Server Profiles in WebCenter

Almost every presentation i see about WebCenter and UCM, people tell me that from PS3, content server profiles are made available in WebCenter. I have browsed both the administration guide as the developers guide but i can't find a piece of documentation about it.
When i add a document service taskflow to my page and i want to upload a file, i only get the "browse" button and a field for a description. There does not seem to be an option to select a profile. The documentation also states that you can select the profile when you update th metadata in webcenter. This is also something i haven't found yet...
The taskflows seem generic so they work with UCM, Oracle Portal and a local directory so it seems normal that there is no option for selecting a profile.
Does anybody tried exposing profiles in webcenter or has some documentation on how do to this? To me, this seems like a very important feature but i haven't figured out how to make it work..

I have recently done a POC on the contributions, if you can setup the Default Data Element and region Definition you will be able to use the Magic key ctrl + shift + 'C' to switch Webcenter Spaces PS3 to contribution mode.
This way you can present the Site Studio content as well as Contribute to the same content list. As you can define the Data Element/Region Definition such that, each site studio list can have it's own defined Contribution Metadata list.
Pre-requisite -
In Webcenter Spaces/ Spaces page, Make sure that you have at least one Content Presenter with a content and Region Template from Site Studio.
The limitation I have felt is, the Content Presenter is not able to Query against any Metadata field. The only way to query is using keywords and file names and after doing that, there is no way you can contribute to the same Webcenter list, i.e there is no metadata specific contribution other than using the profiler as mentioned in this blog.
Question is, is there a way to provide a contribution option from Webcenter Spaces against the list of presented contents using Webcenter Content Presenter (NOT the content from Site Studio), so that we can directly contribute to UCM with specific Metadata. Other than the custom option of using custom taskflow exposing RIDC service ?
Thanks,
Arun

Content server

Hi Friends,
         I am in PLM implementation project. I have a reqt in content server.
        All the DMS users are connected to a single server but geographically located at different locations. To avoid the traffic, some of the local unit related documents has to be stored in their local content server. But Users should have the option of saving the original in Centralized content server or local Content server depends on the reqt.
         For eg. users in Location-1 can store only in his local server and central server. Similarly users in Location-2 can store only in his local server and central content server not in location-1's local server.
         As we know that it is possible, which is the optimum way to configure this?.
Waiting for a prompt reply to award points,
Prasanna raghav.

Partially your requirement can be met by configuration steps in DMS configuration .
you can make a stoarge category automatically defaulted to a particular user . This means whenever a user checks in an original , system check it to a local server automatically (based on the configuration ) but cannot check in it to a central server for a given condition automatically .
in simple words only one storage category for ws application type can be defaulted for automatic checking and for a choice of storage ares,,,user needs to do it manually
Spro--> Cross Application components --> Document Management > General data>Define Profile
Here is a suggestion though,,,,,for distributed content....
I havent see any requmnt of openeing and "editing "originals and sharing between global locations very frequently ,,,even if it is true those might be smaller files . So if its Displaying the files between global locations , then deploying cache servers is the solution
Cheers!!

Content Server 6.0 Editor access

I have some cs portlets, some allow you to add/create articles, others are simply "content" spaces using just the rich text field. How can we give access to community managers to change that content without giving them access to the content server explorer?
M

Yeah - I sympathize. Took me a while to get hip to this.
To your point, there are publisher folder objects (and security...) and portal admin folder objects (and security...)
You have a portlet template (in the global portal objects admin folder structure). The user needs to have rights to the template in order to create portlets (also needs rights to underlying web service and server)The portlet template is (by default) bound to a publisher object in a publisher folder (/plumtree/portlet templates/_announcement/en in this case)The portlet templates can have their security bound to the base publisher portlet folders (if you look on security on a publisher portlet instance you'll see this)... this will make more sense later.A user community can create published content in a destination folder in publisher (EX: /plumtree/myAwesomeClient)When the user creates a portlet instance from a portlet template (from the portal admin objects) you tell it your destination folder in publisher (/plumtree/myAwesomeClient) - the act of naming the portlet instance will create (or should create...) a folder with a "like name" - EX: I call my portlet "Eric's test portlet." I should now see... /plumtree/myAwesomeClient/Eric's test portletCool bit... because you've bound the Portlet template's security to the Publisher object's security the user SHOULD be left with admin rights to the content within that new publisher folderConfused yet? :) Took me a while to really grasp this...
What you should get out of this is...
An instance of a portlet (in your global portal admin hierarchy)A publisher folder (in the publisher folder structure)In theory - the two sets of security should be tied togetherThe act of editing the admin prefs on the portlet should automatically update the published content.
I only really figured this out once I wrote my own publisher-based portlet templates. Just step through the idea...
portlet templates are just "links" back to publisher templateswhen you create a portlet from a template security should be tied to the publisher destination folderongoing to let people admin content they need to have rights to...the publisher folder (publisher folder structure)the portlet instance (portal admin folder structure)the users don't need access to the publisher explorer portlet - editing admin prefs on the portlet should be enoughI'm still not sure I explained that very well...
Thanks,
Eric

Content Server pcs tags - API

The pcs tags are limited in what they allow us to retrieve in terms of information about an item. We would like to find properties related to the workflow, not only whether an item has be created or published.
The idea would be to see whether an article has been saved, but not yet submitted to a workflow process.
Is there any way of doing so from a template?

This sort of bug usually occurs when the machine hosting your WS Server is different than the one running Content Server. I'll bet those machines have clocks that differ by more than 10 minutes. Make sure they are set to the same time.
By default that method of obtaining a remote session allows it to last for 10 minutes. If your servers believe they are more than 10 minutes apart, they think the security token has expired.
