Masthead par file issue

Hello,
We are facing one issue with masthead, one of our developer wrongly deployed incorrect masthead.Becuase of this masthead got corrupted, we are getting runtime errors.we have replaced original masthead , restarted portal, still problem exist, are we missing any thing?
Thank you for help
Regards,
Veera.

The the masthead which is actually getting pointed...
It might be that you are uploading a file which is not getting pointed by portal framework page.
Probably you must be using pcd:portal_content/every_user/general/frameworkpage as framework page...if not customized...
In this framework page you will find actual masthead iview that is being used....
Preview it from there.....and if not working then check the property "Code Link"...there you will find the actual par file name...
Upload this par file and again try to preview it from there only.........
If still it does not work then paste the exception here.....

Hi Sumangala,
Thanks for reply, You are talking about Enterprise Portal, the CE Environment is different we don't have options for browse deployment, compulsory we have to take from the server itself.
The files in server is also different
In EP we can find masthead in this location - /usr/sap/<SID>/J<Instance number>/j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root/web-inf/deployment/pcd
but,
In CE the structure is different we cannot find the exact path as above.
I searched files there but i got lot of files on masthead and i confused which file i have to use.

Portal runtime error after modifying masthead par file

Hi experts,
i tried to upload com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par in the portal (productive system) after modifying tooltip text of u201CHelpu201D link. i used Archive uploader.
After upload, status messages are correct.
But now in the masthead area, i have red message :
"Portal runtime error"
"An exception occurred while processing your request"
I cannot also access the Browse Deploymentu2026
So now i cannot log off from the portal (except by restart computer)
In development system where I used the same procedure, everything is OK.
Please help!

Dev,
Please ensure that the changes are correct by to upload the orignial par.
The other way of modifying the par is as below,
*Upload the PAR into NWDS and add the jars htmlb.jar, com.sap.portal.htmlb_api.jar and servlet.jar through java build path of your par project and add the jar com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead_core.jar (you can get this by extracting your par and navigate to the folder PORTAL-INF -> lib) in PORTAL-INF -> lib folder of your project.
Make changes
Build project
Export into portal

Portal masthead messed up - par file needed

Hi
I recently performed a transport of the masthead from
NW7.0 EP SPS13 to NW 7.0 EP SPS14
I was careless enough to have overridden the original com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead on the target system.
Apparently the transport messed up the masthead and now my logoff link would give me a javascript error.
can someone provide me the original SPS14 masthead par file or suggest another solution to fix this.

Hi,
send me an email to [email protected] so i can send you the par file you need

Reg: Using a single masthead par for multiple users

Hi All
We need to implement different look and feel in the masthead for different users. For e.g. User A will see a different caption around the logo to that of User B. It could be different images for each user too. We have to achieve this with only one masthead par file as it is not tenable to have a par file for each user. What are the best ways to implement this?
1. Store images/caption and other user specific data in the data base and based on the user login fetch the relevant info to build the masthead.
2. An ugly yet effective way for images when the number of users are less --> keep images with same name in the par images folder and pick up the image based on the user logged in.
Is there a way to solve it with only rule collection, framework pages & iview properties? A solution based on this could be highly extensible as and when new users are created. Please advise on the feasibility of this option.
Also welcome are other suggestions which are better than the above ones.
Regards
Lakshminarayanan.V

Hi Lakshminarayanan,
Im wondering you do want to show different mastheads for different users. Please try to consolidate the users into minimum groups/departments and have different desktop rule for them to show different mastheads.
If this can'tbe avoided, then we should with masthead custom option when users are large. In this case the first approach make sense to me but you have to take care of data base to update database and add images when there is a new user created. Also, have a common folder in the server path and store the images over there. This is easy to maintain.

How to use JSP custom tag lib in PAR file?

Hi All,
I am trying to customize mastheaderpar file. For that I have downloaded relevant par file and making the changes accordingly.
As part of the changes I would require to use JSP custom tag library in my par file.
I have the TLD file and relevant classes in the jar file. I would like to know where and what kind of modifications have to be done to use the jsp custom tag library.
I tried modifying some things in portalapp.xml but was not successful.
Please help me on how to proceed with this? It would be great if you can provide the xml entry to use this tag library
Thanks
Santhosh

Hi Johny,
Thanks for the reply. Actually I am able to change colors etc. with out any problem.
My requirement is to use XMLTaglib in mastheader par file. This tag lib is from apache tomcat. I have the relevant TLD and class files. I copied TLD file into taglib dir of portal-inf and class file in src api.
And I have added the following line in portalapp.xml under component-profile section of default
<property name="tlxtag" value="/SERVICE/Newmastheader/taglib/taglibs-xtags.tld">
Is this the right way to use tag lib? Actually before adding this line I used to get the error saying "Error parsing taglib", but now the error does not occur and I am getting new error. This is an exception in one of the taglib classes.
Could any one provide me some inputs on how to check this error?
Thanks

How to get the Clinet IP address in PAR files

Hi Frndzz...
My requirement is to get the log on details of portal users, here i need the User ID n client IP address .
Am trying to get these details from masthead iview PAR file, and this details am passing to a java(custom) class which can create a log_Test.txt file with these details.
User ID am gettiing using UME API like this in masthead PAR file
public void GetWelcomeID(IPortalComponentRequest request, String welcomeClause)
IUserContext userContext = request.getUser();
String usr =userContext.getLogonUid();
But am unable to get the Client IP
In normal JSP will get the client IP like this request.getRemoteAddress()
So in par file i used the IPORTALCOMPONET request to get the client IP, i thought IPORTALCOMPONET request is equalent to HTTPSERVLETRequest request interface.
Any one suggest me that how we can get the Client IP in PAR files .
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Rajesh

Hi,
This is a very interesting question, i searched many time before to get an answer for this on sdn. I havn't found solution. As i know, It is very diffcult to find the ip address from request object.
The main reason is, before reaching the servlet class the request is by pass through other node like dispatcher/central node. If you try to fetch request objects ip from server class i think it will only return you the dispatcher server ip only.
There is a solution for this problem.. if you are able to fetch the ip using some client side scripting and pass it to the servelet as parameter, i hopes you can acheive this.
I will try this and let u know the result.
Others please share your thoughts on this topic.

VIJAY

Hi Vijay,
first, welcome on SDN!
About your question: It is quite critical to use some PAR of somebody else. You didn't give your version (SP / Patch Level), and deploying a masthead of a different version may end up in serious trouble, especially if you didn't backup your original version (which you have not, for you say you have no access...).
If
> My work is to import the masthead.par file to eclipse
then you should be provided with the PAR of have access to it. It is to be found on the server under .../WEB-INF/deployment/temp.
If you don't have physical access to the server, you may also get it through the portal: System Administration - Support - Support Desk - Portal Runtime - Browse Deployment - [browse to the path given above, download the PAR]. Please have in mind that you're downloading a ZIP, from which you first will have to extract the PAR.
Hope it helps
Detlev

Issue while uploading the PAR file thru system admin- AdministrationConsole

Hi All,
I have downloaded the PAR file "com.sap.portal.navigation.lightdetailednavigationtree.par.bak" from system admin->support->Portal Runtime ->browse deployment->Web-Inf->deployment->PCD.
after downloaded to the desktop for manual change in one of the JSP file rather than importing into NWDS. I have removed the bak from the file and added the .Zip to the file and i extracted the file.
here inside i got the three folders i.e WEB-INF,PORTAL-INF and file_list. now i went to jsp file called "LightDetailedNavigationTree.JSP" , changed one small property value in the code from false to true. after that i again zip the folders strcuture make the file name as original in the form of .PAR file. now i am trying to upload it in the portal thru system admin->portal runtime->administration console, but i am getting the deployment error as mentioned in the below.
even though with error, the wrong version of the par file with extension .err was saved in the PCD folder strcture, and original file also still exists. now i wanted to remove the wrong version of the file from PCD, what is the procedure to delete the wrong version, here in administration console i found one button clean , but i could not able to locate the wrong file version , only original right version showing up in the clean dropdown??
Can u tell me what is the procedure to edit the PAR file manually after downloaded to the desktop, rather than going edit thru NWDS??
if we need to upload the PAR file after changes, do we need to delete the original PAR file before we upload the new version of the same PAR or it will be automatically overwrite the original file with the same name??
Still i am getting confusion, please let me know how to edit the PAR file manally and how to upload the PAR file with out any isse while uploading it in the portal thru system admin->administration console??
Any pointers in this regard would be the great help to me??

Where is the jspdynpage in .par file for masthead

I have a project in NWDS with .par file for masthead.
In the dist folder I found the jsp files but where will I get the jspdynpages in this project.
I want to add the code to connect to R/3 in this dynpage for lightheaderiview.jsp
Please help.

Hi Anzar,
If you describe the scenario then probably you might get more helpful answers. You can write a custom module JSP which will use JCO adapters to fetch the data you need from the backend systems.
Thanks,
