Moving page group contents (Portal 902)

Given my page group root page has died, how do I go about moving anything? I don't want to have to go through the pain of re-creating the templates, subpages etc, all of which still work. When I tried moving the subpages, it said I didn't have enough permissions to move it to the personal pages (I'm working as orcladmin) and I can't move it to another page group.
Help please!
Carey

Carey,
First of all, you should log a TAR with Oracle support for this. Second, I suspect this happened because you deleted something that you were referencing somewhere in your root page. For example, perhaps you deleted a page that you had a page link to. I have seen this exact error before, and that is when I have seen it happen. When it has happened to me, I deleted the navigation page and re-created it. You obviously can't do that.
I'm sure that you know that for a workaround now, you can create another page within the page group and use it as your main page.

Copy a page group

hello
i have a portal page group named "my company portal 00",
i want to create 10 identical page groups with names "my company portal 01","my company portal 02",.... and so forth
please help me how to do so
thanks

Hi aldrin,
Its not possible to copy a page from page group A to page group B until Portal version 10.1.4.1.
Pages can be copied across Page Groups from Portal version 10.1.4.1 onwards.

Moving Pages from one Page Group to Another Group

Hello,
How do you move pages, styles, or items from one page group to another page group?
On the same machine, I have three page groups called Production, Acceptance, and Test. Once I set up a page that I like on the page group Test, what is the best way to move the page(and its items, portlets,etc) to the page group Acceptance, and then move it into Production?
Also, how does security and approvals affect this? There is only limited amount of people that are able to get into the Test Page Group, or Acceptance Page Group. Would any copying process make sure the page approvers be copied across correctly? Or will manual intervention be needed.
I'm using Oracle Portal Release 2 (9.0.2) running on a solaris machine.
Much thanks for your assistance.
Anson

hi There,
As far as i know, the pages can only be moved within the page group but not from one page group to another page group.

Timeout for Content in Tab of Page Groups and Providers

Hello,
I have installed Oracle Portal 9.0.2.2.22. I try to see the list of Page Groups in Navigator Portal's page, but it does not finish showing the list of page groups, and show this error "Timeout for content=XXXXX".
In each attempt to refresh the page, the error code for timeout change.
The same problem exist in the tab Providers.
All this happens after making the Note:217187.1 "How to restore a cold backup of a Portal IAS 9.0.2 on another machine" of Metalink.
What happens? Please Help me...
Thanks!.
Marco.

hi marco,
i suggest to check the install log file in case you did a fresh installation to see if anything went wrong. in addtion check the error log files of the app server to trace down the problem.
if you are starting from scratch and you want to get started with the 9.0.2.2 release i don't suggest using this release but going with the 10.1.2 release. its much easier to install and contains a lot of bug fixes compared to 9.0.2.x.
If for any reason you need to get started with 9.0.2.x i suggest to open a new service request with oracle support services to solve the problem.
regards,
christian

Default Page Template for Portal Page Group

Release 2 of Portal (9.0.2.2.22)
Created a page group and several templates.
Edit Page Group Properties, Configure, locate the Default Page Template drop list.
The drop list has only the templates from the shared object page group.
The online help states
=======
Choose the page template to apply to new pages in this page group if the page designer does not explicitly choose one.
Note: This list includes all the page templates in this page group and the shared objects page group.
========
I have several templates in this page group. Why don't they show in this drop list?

You have to make the templates public. Edit the template properties - on the Main tab click "Make Public".

This is a default behavior as a new content is added to site 2 with a different metadata so it is marked as unpublished

Oracle AS Portal - Page groups

hi, i am creating oracle AS portal as a new source . when i retrieve the page groups i get only 4 and not everything...why is this...the four pgs are corporate, portal design-time pages, shared objs, user approval page group...i have tons more pgs !!
-thanks

It sounds like you're only getting public page groups and not protected ones.
You need to be running 10.1.4.1 or later of Portal, or have applied either patch 4637116 or 4995600 for this to work properly.

OAS v10.1.2 Ultra Search - Page Group Missing When Setting Up Portal Data

Hi,
We're on version 10.1.2 but in the process of upgrading to 10.1.4.
In Ultra Search, when I try to set up a Portal Data Source, I can't see all the Page Groups in the portal. Is this somehow related to the ACL for the Page Group ... or individual pages? I can see most but not all, and specifically not the one I want.
Any suggestions would be great!

I blundered onto the answer to my issue by trial and error.
When setting up the root page for a page group, if you wish it to be accessible to Ultra Search to be part of a Portal Data Source, you must ensure that the "Display Page To Public Users" check box is checked. The "Enable Item Level Security" checkbox can also be checked, e.g, they are not mutually exclusive.

Diff between regular portal page and content area page?

Hi.
I have a content area page. Because I thought it would be nice to have "Edit Page" link on the page, I created a new portal page (yes, a portal page vs. a content area page).
I created 2 regions.
Region 1, portlet nav bar portlet from my content area.
Region 2, root folder from my content area
When I use the page, clicking on anything in the nav bar portlet takes me to a new page (my content area page), instead of updating the folder portlet on my new portal page.
Is this by design?
What the difference between a portal page and a content area folder?
Thanks a bunch!
Phillip

Phillip,
The two are indeed subtly different. The experts are on the content area forum but basically a content area page is designed to automatically provide easy navigation within a content area. This includes automatically "doing the right thing" for the navbar portlets.
Note the links on the navbar portlet and their respective targets. They always target the content area page so that the navigation in a content area is seamless (i.e. the middle region updates w/ the current folder).

Portal 902: How to setup large scale navigation ?

hello,
I'm just starting to work with Portal 902. The new concept of page groups and pages is still not clear to me. I want to design a site with a banner on the top and 7 tabs. 4 of the tabs should have a specific vertical navbar on the left side and a content region on the right side. The content region should allow for navigation to sub levels where the sublevel in rendered in place. This type of interface is very common.
In Portal 309 it was possible to define tabs, create a navbar portlet on the left and a folder portlet on the right side. While navigating in the folder portlet, the subfolder was rendered in place.
How should I design this interface in Portal 902 ? I don't want to define the tabs on each subpage again. The number of subpage can become very huge, and therefore it should be easy for users to create them.
Can someone explain how to implement this type navigation, and how the old and new concept can be compared ?
regards,
Willem-Pieter van der Lugt

willem,
i've a question for u ...
u mentioned in portal 309 u did the following -
create 22 regions in a page, the left region will contain nav bar portlet and the right region will have folder portlet and as the user navigates thru the nav bar in the left region the folder renders in the right region in folder portlet ? is that correct ...? if so, how do u do this ... cause, i could not find any way of rendering the folder in the right region ... when it is clicked in the nav bar portlet in the left region.
how do u do this in 309.
what i did was create a custom HTML nav bar in the left region and create a IFRAM in the right region. when a user clicks a link in the left region, i render it in IFRAME using the target property of IFRAME. this is lot of work and maintenance is pain ... if there is a way to do this in a simpler way, pls let me know.
thanx a bunch

How to preview a page in Oracle Portal?

Hi gurus,
I'd like to know if there is anyway to preview a page in Oracle Portal 10g 9.0.4.
Customer needs to preview the page (how it will looks like) before inserting
new contents (image, link, url, item, portlet etc.) in it, so just the page manager
(user or group that has MANAGER access in that page) can see it that time and
no other user can, until the page manager aprove the new format of the page and
"deploy" the page to the user.
Any suggestions on how to do this?

Hi,
I'm afraid there's not a preview option as you describe it. It is something our customers have asked for too, so I'll be happy if somebody knows a decent way to accomplish this. I hope this is included in a future release.
Kind regards.

Can't create a page group

Hi:
i'm having troubles with a portlet wich is supossed to have a "create page group" functionality, but it really doesn't have it. i've seen documentation on Oracle about a portlet called "page groups" which gives the possiblity to build page groups, pages, styles,... but i only have a portlet called "pages" which gives the same functionality, but not the "create page groups" function. what should i do? how can i create a page group?
thx.

Hey, it seems that content areas are similar to page groups. Can I use content areas instead of page groups? Is it possible that my version of Portal (3.0) doesn't contaion page groups? Can anybody explain to me this confusing thing?
Thanks a lot.
Petra :)

Cannot access page groups via Navigator "portlet could not be contacted"

On the Portal Navigator's Page Groups tab, the error "The portlet could not be contacted." appears where the list of Page Groups should be.
This is happening for 2 users. I see it the error in 1 browser, but not in another (logged on in both browser as same user).
There are no errors in the Apache error log. There are errors in the OC4J_Portal application log:

What is confusing is how 1 browser gets the error but another does not.
Any suggestions?
TIA

This issue seems to be related to the specific URL used to access the Navigator. I was using a specific URL to display a particular page region for editing, namely
/portal/page?_pageid=6,3,6_23&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&p_otype=FOLDER&p_octx=FOLDER.334478_1453&p_domain=wwc&p_sub_domain=SITEEXP
Once the Navigator is accessed via this URL, all subsequent attempts to access Page Groups Navigator portlet fail.
I changed my process to not use the URL above.

How to Export/Import a Page Group?

Hi All,
I'm having problems to export a page group from a dev server to a production server. What I had done with succesfull:
- I created the transport set table in dev server by clicking on Export link under page group;
- I executed the script and generated the dump file without warnings;
- I executed the import script in the production server without warnings;
When I will Import the transport table to my production server via Oracle Portal Interface, the status of the page group is Fail. Why?
I created the user groups before, that are the same of the dev instance.
Note: In my production instance there is no page group. It is my first export/import of this page group.
What steps I need to do? Am I do anything wrong?
Best regards,
JV.
