Making the content server URL available on Internet

Hello all,
We have installed Weblogic server + SOA + UCM content server + Webcenter 11.1.1.4.
We have completed our initial phase of requirement and we are currently running on Production mode.
Now we want our content server instance to be available on Internet. But we are worried about the security issues and performance issues. I want to know is there any guide or document which describes about this? What all we need to keep in mind or make changes getting our Content server to public ip ?
Thanks

Hi Surjit Singh,
For the performance side I think you might be looking for this document:
http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/content-management/ecm-extreme-performance-wp-077977.pdf
It at leasts gives kind of a hint to what hardware you want to use.
If your internet facing server is mainly for consulting documents and your internal system is for managing the documents you can choose to split them. This means 1 contribution (internal) server and 1 consumption (internet) server. With 1 way replication you can keep you consumption server updated and you can make sure nothing is changed on this consumption server. In any case you can address your security concerns for internet specifically on this environment.
The configuration wouldn't be that different but then again this all depends on what exactly you want to do with your server.
Some more info about replication can be found here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e10792/c06_migration.htm#CHDIDDDD

Content Server URL not working.Win2008-MAXDB 7.6.06.20-IIS7

Hello Experts,
I have installed Content Server 6.4 successfully on WIN2K8 with IIS7 and MAXDB 7.6.6.20
When i tried to access the content server url, i was prompted with a POP UP asking for download of ContentServer.dll.
I have strictly followed the installation guide -CONTENTSERVER on WIN 2008 and installed all the necessary roles mentioned in the installation guide.I have also checked the option - install website during my installtion.but still facing the issue while accessing content server URL.
While going through SDN forums, in some of the threads, it was mentioned that manual installation of content server website has resolved the issue.
Could any one please let me know the procedure to be followed for manual installation of content server website to the port manually.
Or
Kindly suggest the solution for this, if you have come across the similar issue.

1) Firstly check whether you have installed all the components pertaining to IIS 7.0 in your system
2) Check whether you have allowed contents like *.dll in the IIS
Hope this helps.

I have an ipad that I purchased in Australia and my iTunes account is Australian, but when I try and watch Australian TV shows on Australian websites it says that the content is not available because I am not in Australia.

Please help! I have an ipad that I purchased in Australia and my iTunes account is Australian, but when I try and watch Australian TV shows on Australian websites it says that the content is not available because I am not in Australia. How can I fix this?

Are you using a proxy server to access the net?
Or another cause could be that your router thinks it's in its home country (probably china)
I just don't know how to fix it. There's a way but I don't know enough to advise.
You could try googling your router model and 'wrong country' or keywords like that and see if something comes up.

Error While defining the content server

Dear Folks,
We are trying to define the content sever in our sever. It is required for integration of SAP with documentum. We are trying to define in below path.
Cross-Application Components - Document Management - General data - Settings for storage systems - Maintain storage system -
It already have DMS_C1 content repository with storage type R/3 database. We are creating a new content repository with storage type HTTP Content Server. We are giving below inputs.
Vesion No. 0045, HTTP Server - (My machine's FQDN and port is 8080), HTTP script as - sap/bc/contentsever/300.
After giving above inputs, if I click on test connection, I m getting error as Error in HTTP Access:IF_HTTP_CLIENT -> RECIEVE1 ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED.
If I define the HTTP content sever as sap-qas.vsnl.co.in (i.e. My quality servers host name) it works fine i.e. connection test goes OK. Does any one know how we can define the content server and what all steps required for the same?
Thanks and Regards,
Kedar

Hi Kedar,
YOu have to provide the details as fallows
Storage type : HTTP content server
Version no. : 45 (based on the content server version)
HTTP server : <content server IP>
Port Number of content server : 1090 (default port)
HTTP Scrip : ContentServer/ContentServer.dll
Once after these details you can check
Also install the DBM gui in your local PC and add this content servers database (if the content server is on MAX DB) then you need to star it from the console or else use the command to start it once after the installation.
/sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -d <SID> -u control,plmcont db_state - to check the database status
/sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -d <SID> -u control,plmcont db_online - to start the database

Error while starting the content server

ANy idea wats going on.
I have done the required changes in the confd of the webserver, Content server is accessible from the webpage. I am also able to login as sysadmin.
Not sure wats going wrong.
Thanks

You can sometimes get issues on the file system with file locking occurring and so UCM can not clear up/move the schema files properly.
It may not be this but...There should me a metalink note about this deleting schema directories.

Thanks, Quality Communication Provides Quality Work. http://siddiq-sharepoint2010.blogspot.in/ Siddiqali Mohammad .
Hi siddiqali,
According to the screenshot you posted above, the use account didn't have sufficient permission to open the report, please check the following prerequisites before you perform the action:
You must use a report definition (.rdl) file as a data source. Importing from a report model is not supported.
You must have permission to open the report under your Windows user account, and you must know the address of the report or the report server that hosts it. You can check your permissions by trying to open the report in a Web browser first.
If the report opens, it confirms that you have sufficient permissions and the correct URL.
Reporting Services must be version SQL Server 2008 R2 or SQL Server 2012. Those versions include the data feed export feature that streams report data in the XML data feed format. You can identify the report server by the Export as Data Feed option
that appears in the report toolbar when you open the report in browser:

Using GOS to store business document on the content server

Hello All,
BACKGROUND
We use content server to store business documents via ArchiveLink. The process to store a business document is via Generic Object Services menu path "Create -> Store business document".
ISSUE
When document is stored in such a way, the actual name of the document is not displayed in the "Attachment list" of the GOS menu nor is it stored on the content server. What we see instead in the "Attachment list" is a description of the Archive object (TOASP-objecttext) for all documents that we store.
NEED HELP
We need to have a document's name (i.e. name of the uploaded file) displayed in the "Attachment list" of GOS. We also need to be able to retrieve this file name programmatically via a function call or a class method.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Gene.

1. In GOS attachment list i can able to see the attachment name (without extension) may be you need to check your layout using change layout (its may hidden)
2. For getting attachment name programatically try this way
i_object-typeid = 'BUS2012'.
i_object-catid = 'BO'.
i_object-instid = yatthdr-docno.       " Document Number
refresh : i_brel, i_link.
* Get Attachment List
append 'ATTA' to i_brel.
if not i_brel is initial.
    select *
      from srgbtbrel
      appending corresponding fields of table i_link
      for all entries in i_brel
      where
        instid_a eq i_object-instid and
        typeid_a eq i_object-typeid and
        catid_a eq i_object-catid and
        reltype eq i_brel-reltype.
endif.
wa_filter-send_info = ' '.
wa_filter-no_content = 'X'.
loop at i_link into ls_link.
    clear : wa_doc_data.
    wa_fol_cont-doc_id = ls_link-instid_b.
    call function 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1'
      exporting
        document_id                = wa_fol_cont-doc_id
        filter                     = wa_filter
      importing
        object_header              = wa_obj_hdr
        document_data              = wa_doc_data
      exceptions
        document_id_not_exist      = 1
        operation_no_authorization = 2
        others                     = 3.
You can find the File Name in the WA_OBJ_HDR

Archiving DMS documents (DIR) into the content server

Hi Gurus
Please tell me the basic configuration for archiving the DMS documents. it is asking me to maintain the following table entries (TOAOM, TOAAR, TOACO and TOADV).
the requirement is to archive the DIR in to content repository and the procedure how to retrive it
Jai

Dear Jai,
to set up a Content Server please remember the following steps:
1) Content Server sizing with the hardware specification - Functional Consultant.
Content server sizing has to be done by functional consultant based on clients requirement related to different application files and their sizes for approx 1 year and based on this it has to be estimated to next 5 years if requried.
2) Preparing the Server - Basis
the content server sizing done based on inputs has to be given to basis for checking the hardware specification,server size and also the platform on which content server will be installed (Unix,Windows etc).
3) Creating Content Repositories - Functional Consultant with information of the server details from the Basis guy.
once content server is installed, it has to be configured by creating content repositories and categories by functional consultant with the help of Basis.
4) Creating Storage Category: Functional Consultant.
must be done by functional consultant with the help of Basis.
5) Configuring KPRO - Functional Consultant.
once content server is up, KPRO functionality also will start working but to direct files to content server instead of Sap Database, configuration in backend has to be done by Functional Consultant.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to get the file on the content server via ABAP

Hi
We are working on an abap that should download certain files stored on the content server and store them on a different file location using GUI_DOWNLOAD. How can we retrieve the files (PDF's) via ABAP from the contentserver?
Hope someone can help
Cheers

Hi,
I think the DMS BAPIs could be useful here. For example you can use BAPI Document_CheckOutViewX or Document.CheckOutView2. You will find the documentation for these BAPIs in transaction BAPI under subtopic 'Cross-Application-Components'.
Further maybe the information in the SAP note 504692 and 796709 could be useful too.
Best regards,
Christoph

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.

Activate the Content Server for purchasing

Hello,
I want to activate Content Server for PR/PO/RFQ?RFQ/SES/GR/SA/Contract.
Followed the below mentioned step:
1. Configured the "Content Server" using transaction OAC0
2. Created new document class using t-code OAD2
3. Created / Activated new document type and associate the document class (T-code OAC2)
4. Link Object type / Document Type / Content Repository and Link table (t-code OAC3)
But still unable to see the "Store Business Document" navigator enabled in the Services for Object icon for PO (ME21N/ME22N/ME23N)
Can anybody tell me if some thing i've missed out here?
Thanks in advance

Sap R/3 4.6C - CS630 (patch-lvl15)
We do not use SapDB or MaxDB to store the document on the content server, we store the documents directly in the file system.
Our Content servers run on win2003 servers.
In my company we've currently got 15 different content servers in 10 countries.
We've got one content server and one cache server at each location for one SAP system. One physical server has 2 content servers and 1 cache server. One for our SAP production system and one for our SAP Quality test system. They use the same cache server (first we created 2 cache servers, but it was not possible for SAP to destuingish between the two, so both cache servers got used by both SAP systems)
We have also implemented a couple of add-ons:
1. Conversion and viewserver (by Seal AG). conversion server converts office documents to pdf when documents are released. Currently use only 2 conversion servers, planning to increase when the volume gets larger.
Viewserver adds stamps on pdf-files when you view or print a document.
2. Document Distribution Manager (by CENIT AG). Makes it easy to schedule prefill of cache. Also possible to move documents from one storage category to another. And Rules for transfering documents from one site to another can be made (Ex. "not allowed to move files larger than 20 MB between <certain> sites")
Perhaps I could be of assistance?
BUT, anyway, the reason I post this is because I have problems upgrading my CS630 (lvl15) to CS640 (lvl6).
Asked SAP via an OSS, and they said it was like a regular patching (stop webservice, copy *.dll files, and restart webservice). But when I try this, I can't get contact with the content server via CSADMIN in SAP. I get "HTTP error: 500 Internal Server Error"
