Menu to OracleAS Portal

hello,
whats the best practice to create menu(vertical) in my oracle portal ,
and what other methods can i use to create menu?

Hi Youssef,
This is the intended behaviour. When you are logged in you will have access to more pages as you have more priviledges (orcladmin, portal, etc). What is the exact problem you are facing?
thanks,
Harsha

Pull down menu in Oracle Portal

Hi,
How can a drop down menu be implemented in Oracle Portal template.
Thanks
Deepmala

I am assuming you mean drop down menus from the tabs on a portal page. It is possible to do, as I have done it on our website. It requires a fairly strong knowledge of javascript to get going, but essentially, I created a global onmouseover and onmouseout event, and then using the event.srcelement.src, I pulled back the image src of the tab, to verify which tab I was on, then used javascript to place the proper menu under the tab. This works real well under IE, however, I have gotten it to work under Netscape 6, but it doesn't appear quite right, so I have turned off under Netscape for the time being, till I have more time to get it working.

How to add a dynamic menu to the Portal?

Dear all,
I am restructuring the company's Intranet on which I plan to put a left-side vertical menu. On the menu, most links are accessible to all Intranet users except some KPI (key performance indicators) links which are only accessible to managers.
I am evaluating a third-party dynamic menu builder so called "Sothink DHTML Menu" which is javascript based and provides features for connecting to database via JDBC in jsp.
For static menu scenario, "Sothink DHTML Menu" is perfect for Oracle Portal in the sense of easy development and deployment.
For dynamic menu scenario, if I really want to use "Sothink DHTML Menu", I need to put the codes in jsp file and then place the jsp file on the Portal page. Here is the tutorial http://www.sothink.com/product/dhtmlmenu/store/jspdb/jspdb.htm
I still can't figure out how to do that. Can any experts here tell me how or suggest other alternatives for generating a dynamic menu on Portal?
Thanks
George (HK)

Hi
I also use SoThink menus in Oracle Portal, but for static menus (I upload them in the HtDocs of Apache and then refer to them with an URL Item).
In my previous version of Portal I also had to display some kind of dynamic menus, some parts should only be visible to some users/groups. But I didn't use Sothink at this moment but "DHTML Menus" from an other company.
Starting from an example and using their libraries I wrote my own menu in javascript. In this .js I wrote some functions
- 1 that document.write(s) the start of the menu and the public part of the menu
- 1 that document.write(s) the reserved part of the menu
- 1 that document.write(s) the last part of the menu.
Then in a navigation page I defined 3 regions, each region contains some jscript code that launchs the function/menu part of the same range. And I used the item level security to set right access to the second region/menu part.
It worked fine, I just had to add some /* at the end of region 1 ent */ at the beginning of region 2 to remove the HTML code Portal writes between the regions.
But it was very time consuming if your menu changes often.

Oracle portal demo

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a demo site for oracle portal where you can review the main features of the oracle portal without going though the tiresome installation process.
thanks,

At www.portaltown.com they can set you up a demo and walk you through the latest portal version. They can even ship you a fully configured RedHat Linux Server with your own port, hostname, ssl specifications.

Oracle Portal as site builder

Hi,
We found Oracle Portal very strange!
We used to work with OpenCms Portal, for building our site. This is a Content Management Tool; which enables users to build a site easily. Please look at www.opencms.org.
If user wants to create a page
1- He clicks on new page button.
2- System displays some templates. The user selects one.
3- System shows a WYIWYS screen, User can add his test to page (make it bold, italic, draw table...) or drag & drop some images from image gallery.
4- After editing a page, the user saves the page and close.
5- Site administrator will publishes the page on the net.
After publishing the page the end-user access the site from internet. The page is automatically added to site menu and is displayed in the site structure.
Can we do above if we switch to Oracle Portal?
In other word, can I get Oracle Portal to build a site which looks some like: http://www.alkacon.com or http://www.bp.co.za
Is there some WYIWYS tool in the portal

Oracle Portal master details default value set up.

Hi All,
Using Oracle Portal to create a master details form.
I have tried to set up the details table foreign key. I used the master table primary key as a default value for the details table foreign key.
Does anyone know what the correct syntax is when I fill in the Default Value field on the "Formatting and Validation Options for Detail Row" tab?
Also related to this: What should I choose from the drop down menu for the "Default Value Type"?
Best Regards.
Liviu Minda & Paul Williams
Cape Town City Council.

Hi Liviu & Paul,
NOTE: The following is applicable to Portal version 3.0.8 and above .
Well, if you want that the Detail table Foreign key should get the value of The Mater Table Primary key, then you need not do anything like setting the Default value for the Foreign Key of the Detail section. It works like this :-
Operation INSERT:
When you are INSERTing a master record and the corresponding detail records, just fill up the master form and need not worry about the Foreign key(FK) in the Detail rows. Fill up the other columns for the detail rows and choose the appropriate action for each of the detail rows i.e. INSERT and click on the SAVE button. If the FK in the Detail have been left blank, then while inserting into the detail table, the Primary Key (PK) value of the master will be picked up and inserted . However, if you specify any value in the FK column of the Detail, then the specified value would override the PK value of the master.
Generally, what ppl do is make the FK in the detail of type Hidden.. so users cannot tamper with the FK values.
Hope this helps.

Solution to get pageid from Oracle Portal in 14 Steps

To get the _pageid from your site is simple you have to do this:
Example browser link -> portal/page?_pageid=34,35030&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL
1º - Edit your template page click in the "properties" link
2º - go to the tab Parameters
3º - create a new parameter with the name _pageid
4º - click in navigator and after click in providers
5º - Locally Built Providers and create your build APP for your site (in my case the name is APP_PORTAL)
6º - Create your dynamic page (in my case DYN_MENU to use a menu based in the pageid)
7º - uses this code:
/* the pageid have the number of your site (in this case psiteid) and the number of the page (in this case ppag)
after this you can call procedures using this two variables like the procedure menu who is create in the my package portal in the etcuser:
in the step or tab "Custumization Form Display Options" who detect the bind variable :pageid click in the option "Make public"
<ORACLE>declare
psiteid NUMBER(4);
ppag NUMBER(7);
begin
psiteid:=TO_NUMBER(substr(:pageid, 1, INSTR(:pageid, ',', 1, 1)-1));
ppag :=TO_NUMBER(substr(:pageid, INSTR(:pageid, ',', 1, 1)+1));
htp.p('Site: '|| psiteid ||' Page: '|| ppag ||'');
etcuser.portal.menul(ppag, psiteid);
end;
</oracle>
8º - After this you only need to associate in the template the _pageid parameter with bind variable :pageid of your dinamic page
9º - In your template add a Portlet to the region
10º - click in Portlet Staging Area - your build repository (in my case APP_PORTAL) and chose the DYN_MENU
11º - after click in the link properties of the template page go to the tab parameters again
12º - In the Portlet Parameter Values now you can expand your dinamic applications (in my case de DYN_MENU)
13º - Expand your application and associate the Portlet Parameter (in this case de pageid) equal (=) chose "Page Parameter" and select in the combo the _pageid
14º - The job is done now you have the pageid in your oracle portal pages
:)

No... work's in oracle portal 10.1.4 if your system is configured to pass the pageid like my example. And my page only have one template for the entire portal and you only need to add the Dynamic page only one time in the template.

Images used inside the Portlets are not getting displayed on Oracle Portal

I am registering my JSR Portlet producer on Oracle Portal server but when its rendered on the portal page its not showing images.It just shows a red cross mark showing image is not loaded.Can anyone help me out please samt thing is happening with CSS also.Please reply soon

I'd check the image properties (right click the x and choose properties) and see what the path is for the image. If it is a relative path, you need to make sure that the file is in that location on the Application Server. /images/myImage.jpg would mean the file should be in $ORACLE_HOME/portal/images on the midtier.

How to integrate Oracle Portal running on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2

I have an Oracle Portal running on a Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.
Portal is responsible ( along with OID ) for the users authentication and authorization.
There is a new JEE application that was developed recently, which the Portal users must have access to.
HOW can I put a link into a page of the Portal, that redirects the portal user to a new browser window displaying my new application?
HOW can this new application, running in a separate weblogic 11g (10.3.5) server, automatically authenticate with the same username/password previously authenticated when the user logged into the portal?
Any ideas?
I´ve already thought in a bunch of ways to do it:
- put a link into the portal with a sessionId, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to use the same session. How can I configure this session id during the creation of the portal's page? How can I use it from the new app to use the same session?
- put a link into the portal with a userid, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to authenticate using a different authentication provider configurated in WL, which points to Portal´s OID. In this situation, how can I ensure that the user is already logged in and the session has not timed out?
- Should I use OSSO?
- Should I use OAM?
Any help would be appreciated!
Murilo

Hi Murilo,
A portletized version of your J2EE app would probably have been ideal for your purpose as it would handle both authentication (through SSO) and session information (through Portal framework as the framework can pass session information to the provider/producer). This would require changes to the application however.
Easiest approach would be to use mod_osso to protect your J2EE application. SSO would then handle the authentication for your Portal and your J2EE application.
Thanks,
EJ

ADF Application and Oracle Portal Login Page

We have developed ADF application and deployed it in Oracle AS 10.1.2 along with the custom JAAS module, which is working fine with the application custom login page. As a next page, I want to use Oracle Portal login page for the authentication and authorization.
How can I accomplished it? Any idea?
Thanks,
AP

Shay,
1. I created blank ADF project
2. I copied myreport.jsp file (this one was generated by Oracle Report Builder) under ..ViewController/public_html directory
3. Created directory 'lib' under ViewController/public_html/WEB-INF/lib
4. Copied reports_tld.jar file under the directory created in 3.
5. Created simple jspx page with the af:link (btw af:goLink does not exists in JDev 12c), set 'destination' to myreport.jsp
After the steps above I could not even compile the application, many problems too many to list here, Basically JDev is trying to build the project with .jsp file generated in Report Builder and is unable to.
So to be sure we are on the same page: I am trying to embed JSP report files generated by Report Builder into ADF project, then create EAR file and deploy on standalone WLS. Finally execute JSP web only report.

Assuming you right-clicked the image and verified that it's pointing to the images virtual path, then did you clear WebCache cache contents (as well as your browser's)?

Hi there,
Have you applied any patches to 9ias since it was first installed? We had the same problem and had to apply a couple of patches to get the portlets working.
1. Apply the 9.0.2.53.16 one-off patch for Oracle 9iAS Discoverer which takes Discoverer up to 9.0.2.53.16. This patch appears to be password protected and you need to get someone at Oracle support to give you a password.
2. Apply the Discoverer Portlet Provider: 9.0.2.53.00c patch (patch no. 2595444) which gives you a new discportal.xsl file that actually works. It's this second step that solves your problem but you need to do step 1 before this. This is password protected as well.
3. As you've upgraded Disco on the server to 9.0.2.53, you'll need to upgrade Disco Admin & Desktop within your 9iDS installation using patch no. 2555265. This is because Disco 9.0.2.53 uses an upgraded EUL that Disco Admin & Desktop need to be patched to use.
This was the course of action Oracle support advised us about nine months ago. Of course they may have released a further patch to Disco that does 1 & 2 in one go, but we regularly carry out steps 1 and 2 on servers we use and we can use the Disco portlets successfully.
Hope this helps

Sample PL/SQL Portlet Source Code for Oracle Portal 9ias

Hi, I'm a newbie of Oracle Portal technology, and I have a problem:
I would create a PL/SQL portlet that realizes the following functions:
1) Retrieve the username of the portal user logged from WWCTX_API.GET_USER function.
2) Insert into an oracle db table two values about two hidden fields in the HTML FORM of the portlet.
3) Realize the insert commit through the click on the submit button on the Html form of the portlet. I would redirect by the same button to an other page url also.
I've never developed in Portal, and may be useful if someone could post me the source code of the SHOW MODE SECTION in the PROCEDURE SHOW of a SAMPLE PL/SQL PORTLET that realizes the upper functions.
Thanks a lot....

Hi
Here's the code from Helloworld_Portlet example:
procedure show
p_portlet_record wwpro_api_provider.portlet_runtime_record
is
l_portlet wwpro_api_provider.portlet_record;
begin
if (not is_runnable(
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_reference_path => p_portlet_record.reference_path)
) then
raise wwpro_api_provider.PORTLET_SECURITY_EXCEPTION;
end if;
Retrieve the portlet information.
l_portlet := get_portlet_info(
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_language => p_portlet_record.language
if (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW) then
if (p_portlet_record.has_title_region) then
Draw the portlet header and specify what links are available
from that header (i.e. details, customize, help, and about).
The has_title property is set at the page region level.
wwui_api_portlet.draw_portlet_header
p_provider_id => p_portlet_record.provider_id
,p_portlet_id => p_portlet_record.portlet_id
,p_title => l_portlet.title
,p_has_details => true
,p_has_edit => true
,p_has_help => true
,p_has_about => true
,p_referencepath => p_portlet_record.reference_path
,p_back_url => p_portlet_record.page_url
end if;
Draw the portlet borders.
The has_border property is set at the page region level.
wwui_api_portlet.open_portlet(p_portlet_record.has_border);
Display the content of the portlet in the show mode.
Use the wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text() API when
generating the content of the portlet so that the
output uses the portlet CSS.
htp.p(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text(
p_string => 'Hello World - Mode Show'
,p_level => 1
if (p_portlet_record.has_border) then
wwui_api_portlet.close_portlet;
end if;
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_ABOUT) then
Display the about page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show About');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_EDIT) then
Display the edit page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Edit');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_HELP) then
Display the help page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Help');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_EDIT_DEFAULTS) then
Display the edit defaults page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Edit Defaults');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_SHOW_DETAILS) then
Display the details page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Details');
elsif (p_portlet_record.exec_mode = wwpro_api_provider.MODE_PREVIEW) then
Display the preview page for the portlet.
htp.p('Hello World - Mode Show Preview');
end if;
end show;
I think you need to add this:
You can get the values of your html-form with this command:
v_hidden_1 varchar2(256);
v_hidden_2 varchar2(256);
v_hidden_1 := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('name_of_hidden_1_in_html_form','p');
v_hidden_2 := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('name_of_hidden_2_in_html_form','p');
You can get the actual URL with this command:
v_url := p_portlet_record.page_url;
Hope that helps.

Mark

Problem running Oracle Portal to Go (Oracle9i 1.0.2.0.0)

I have installed Oracle9i Application Server WE 1.0.2.0.0 Standard Edition on Windows2000 Professional Edition. I am getting problems regarding running Portal to Go.
The installer said that installation was successful. Moreover I have done the configuration tasks mentioned Oracle9i installation guide under post installation steps for Oracle9i.
But Oracle Portal to Go is not running and returning error message. Are there some other tasks still to perform to configure the Oracle Portal to Go Standard Edition?
Here it is a brief Description of what I have done with the installations process
System: Pentium II 500 MHZ with 256 MB RAM and 15 GB Hard Disk so enough space available for installations.
Windows 2000 professional was freshly installed
All pre installation tasks are done like paging file size is 896MB
Important Installation steps and points are as under (Standard Edition of Oracle 9i Application Server 1.0.2.0.0):
I followed all the steps given in Oracle 9i AS installation guide
On Windows 2000 Installer never asks for reboot before actually installing the Oracle 9i application server (Chapter 4 of installation guide: preparing system for installation: step5: page 5 of 25). So I manually reboot the system
During installation when I reached Database Access Descriptor (DAD) for Oracle Portal. In TNS connect string field for Apache listener Configuration I entered the same name (abc) (chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step2, 3: page 10,11 of 25) as I was going to use for my Global database name later at database Identification steps (chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step 4: page 12 of 25)
Note: In an other installation I left the same fields (TNS connect string) blank but of no use.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
When installation of Oracle9i AS reaches 100% installer opens a command prompt and displays
ORA: 12541 TNS: No Listener
Enter user name:
When I enter SYSTEM as a user name it displays
Password:
I entered manager as password and then it displays
ORA 12560: TNSProtocol adaptor error
And once again it asks for user name and password
I once again enter system as a user and manager as password.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
After 100% completion of the installation the configuration tools screen appears
(Chapter 4 of installation guide: installing oracle 9i Application server: step 10: page 17 of 25) and the following tasks are performed
Net8 configuration Assistant succeeds
Oracle database configuration assistant succeeds
When The Oracle portal 3.0 configuration Assistant Starts
I hold the installation steps for oracle portal for a while and do some database configuration tasks that are necessary (may be some are not) for installation of portal.
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
For example
Increase the table space size of Users (400 MB), and Temp (100MB) table spaces.
Validated invalid PL/SQL Modules with ULTRP.SQL script
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Installed dbms_job.sql package as it was mentioned in another guide (Oracle portal-to-Go installation Guide- Release1.0.2: Page 1: last line)
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Stopped the database and listener
And did some changes as was asked in Oracle portal-to-Go installation Guide- Release1.0.2
Edited the init<SID>.ora file and set the following fields
aq_tm_processes = 1
job_queue_processes = 4 (2 were recommended in guide but I left the already set values)
job_queue_interval = 30
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
Also I did the following too (though these are recommended for Internet file system)
opern_cursors = 300 (in installation guide it is asked 255 but I kept the already set value)
shared_pool_size = 52438800 (50M was suggested and this is more than that)
processes = 200
(Please let me know if I have made any mistake here)
I started the database and listener
Proceeded the installation of Oracle Portal as is described in installation guide for Oracle 9i Application guide 1.0.2.0.0
And successfully completed the installation of Oracle Portal
There were no errors reported on the installer however when I read the installation log some errors were mentioned at the end of the file
Please see the attached log file.
I also completed all the post installation tasks at the end of chapter 4 of Oracle9i Application Server installation guide 1.0.2.0.0 except the configuration of Oracle Internet file system (is it necessary for running Oracle Portal to Go)
When I run the oracle portal to go the following situation is encountered
Working: http://localhost/pls/portal30/admin_/dadentries.htm
Error at: http://localhost/pls/portal30/portal30.home
Error: The preference path does not exist: Oracle.Portal.Page (WWC-51000)
(And this is the main source of confusion)
Working: http://localhost/pls/portal30/admin_/gateway.htm?schema=portal30
Working: http://et-wks-08:5555/invoke/wm.server.admin/adminPage
Are there any other guides and post installation steps still to follow to successfully run this Portal to Go or it is sufficient?
I can also send the installation logs of both Oracle 9i application server (installActions.log and installActions2001-05-28_03-50-56-PM.log) and Oracle portal to Go (install.log).
If you ask, I can send you the installation guides that I have followed and the screen shoots of the error messages for a detail review.
Moreover can anyone please tell me if this version of Oracle 9i Application server is ok or I must try some other version?
Also advise any other if any successful configuration and installation options.
Is it possible to run this portal to go with any other installation options/arrangements/configurations etc?
Any help from anyone will be highly appreciated.

For installing Oracle Portal-To-Go 1.0.2 ,I followed oracle
documectation.Now I want to install Portal-To-Go 1.0.2
application using
a) winnt ver. 4.0 (SP3)
b) Oracle 8i
c) Oracle Application server release 4.0.8.1
d) servlet patch set
e) pl/sql cartridges.
(Oracle 8i and OAS 4.0.8.1 are installed with different oracle home directories.)
I have installed winnt , OAS rel.4.0.8.1. both are working fine
.now I want to install servlet Patch set and
pl/sql cartridges.I am unable to locate the information and software for this on oracle site.
can any body tell me why servlet patch set and pl/sql cartridges
required for this application and
from where should i download the servlet patch set software and PL/SQL cartriges
for this version.
Are the above specified softwares are compatible with each other or something extra
required for this installation. Is service pack 3 (winnt 4.0) compatible
with portal-to-go 1.0.2
Can anybody help me please ?
