Oracle Portal Knowledge Exchange Providers Down

I cannot currently access any of the Portal Knowledge exchange portlets, this is consistent across all of their pages:
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/servlet/page?_pageid=2112&_dad=ops&_schema=OPSTUDIO&_mode=3
The following error occurred when attempting to call the initSession of the Web Provider: PDP Portlets
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.io.InterruptedIOException: Connection establishment timed out

I think this is because Oracle has decided to scrap the Knowledge Exchange part of the site :-/

  • Oracle Portal...Knowledge Exchange link down

    Hi,
    I would like to bring to Oracle's Notice that the Knowledge Exchange link on Oracle Portal's homepage (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/index.html) has been down for several days now. I have recently started working on Oracle Portal technology and i believe that Knowledge Exchange would be very helpful for entry level developers like me. Kindly get this link up asap so that we can learn from the expertise of other knowledge professionals in our area.
    Thanks,
    Amit

  • About Knowledge Exchange Portal (portalstudio)

    Hi
    I really do not understand why you guys decided to take out the Knowledge Exchange Portal.
    This place was THE PLACE to get in the move with Oracle Portal. Developers could share and find things. Definitely was not the best user friendly interface, but was doing its job.
    From about 3 or 4 months the site is down and show this "friendly" message:
    "Knowledge Exchange is no longer available"
    There are some forums on this and no one from Oracle had ever write a single line.
    Re: Knowledge Exchange unavailable

    Oracle Portal...Knowledge Exchange link down
    I even created a SR in metalink (See SR 5626679.992) to ask this issue and the response is as cold as the one in the site:
    "Based on the information I have received, Knowledge Exchange along with all its contents is no more available"
    Where we can find the DHTML menu object type? where we can find the chat and the forum portlet?.
    I think Oracle Corporation should open this kind of spaces to let the developers share.. If not, many many many open source GNU portal frameworks will take out Oracle Portal from the CM scene, just take a look to http://www.cmsmatrix.org/matrix/cms-matrix.
    I hope some day all the Portal enthusiasts , like me, will have a oracle.com site to share Knowledge AGAIN

    Hi,
    Well, just to add more weight to Daniel's post, here's another Thread where an entusiastic Portal Developer was left clueless due to the unavailavility of Knowledge Exchange:-
    I could not find Ronaldo Viscuso DHtml Menu to download.

  • Portal Studio Knowledge Exchange

    I attempted to download a portlet and was greeted by a window explaining that I am not an active member of Knowledge Exchange. It did not tell me HOW to become one. It did provide me with an ACCEPT button which I eagerly clicked on. Then the page refreshed. Alas, this did not change anything, the window keeps popping up.
    I also wonder what is the relationship between being a member of KE and becoming an active subscriber to Oracle 9iAS. In short the text below confuses me. Especially since it keeps popping up.
    Here is a paste from the window:
    Currently, You are not an active member of Knowledge Exchange. You do not have the privileges to download this contribution. To become an active subscriber to Oracle9iAS Portal Developer Services, you need to accept the supplemental terms of use for the Knowledge Exchange, just once By accepting the terms and conditions , you will not need to view the disclaimer everytime you download contributions from the Knowledge Exchange. No changes have been made to the actual terms and conditions. Please read the Knowledge Exchange Supplemental Terms of Use and click the I Accept button below.
    I would suspect my use of Mozilla on Linux, but this shouldn't represent a problem to the software from a renowned Microsoft basher?

    We are aware of this problem and are working to resolve it ASAP. Thanks for your patience on this matter...

  • Usability of the Portal Studio Catalog & Knowledge Exchange...

    Just wanted to say:
    Usability of the Portal Studio Catalog in a word:
    SUX.
    Browsing the catalog is incredibly tedious on a corporate LAN; can't imagine how impossible it would be on any slower speed connection: Click. Wait. Click. Wait. Click. Wait.
    The Knowledge Exchange, in a word:
    ISN'T.
    And, while I'm getting this off my chest, I am SICK AND TIRED of having to enter my password 15 times a session. If my network/machine is cookie-friendly enough for your system to remember my username, why can't you manage to retain my password when I go from one page to another??
    Sheesh.
    And, the reason I'm submitting this complaint here, and not in the elusive Feedback section, is because it's too dam' hard to get to!!!
    Has Oracle EVER once run a Usability Study on its website(s)???
    Sheri

    Hiya, Mohana, and thanks for the response!
    Have you checked the browser setting (if using IE, check Internet Options, Security tab, and if you have Custom setting, verify settings like the Userdata Persistence and User Authentication.) I've added portalstudio.oracle.com and otn.oracle.com to my list of trusted (!!) internet sites. However, I'm on a US Army intranet, so there's a limit as to what I can change WRT security. I've already established with one of your managers that there are some issues with our firewalls and your site. For example, I can't view the monthly developer's newsletters from work, inside the firewall... but when I go home and login to Oracle via my cable modem, I can see the newsletters just fine.
    Your problem with performance (click and wait) also seems to be stemming from a configuration issue - I'm specifically talking about the catalog tree structure. You click on the little (+) signs, wait wait wait, and get a teensy bit of info. Then click again to see a teensy bit more info. Soon the whole screem is full. So, you have to click on the (-) signs to compress the open parts of the tree. The page is slow to load, regardless of the time of day. I admit, pages on the internet can sometimes load slowly at lunchtime hereabouts, but for most of the day that's not at all a problem. Nor do I have this problem with other pages on the oracle.com site. Just the catalog. There's simply got to be a more efficient, faster way to display this tree and its content.
    Regarding the Knowledge Exchange, I'd be happy to know what exactly are the issues you're facing in using the KE. Did you try downloading any contributions or uploading your own? First of all, it's darn hard to find anything to download on the KE. Yes, the top five items of the day are simple. But, there's no organized catalog of offerings that I can find. Deep digging is required.
    Uploading something?? Hah. I'm no Java programmer. I can readily massage existing code to make it do what I want, and I have PL/SQL Developer, which is a very neat and easy-to-use program. However, I wasn't able to figure out how to get the PDK working in 90 minutes of trying--and gave up in frustration; I have slews of content to put up!! Too, our Lab development staff wasn't able to get PDK working, either, and they ARE programmers and DBMs.
    And, while I've got your much-appreciated attention, we're still on Rel 1, and it is very difficult and time-consuming to navigate thru. We have Rel 2 sitting in the Lab, ready to install, however, the report from the Lab team yesterday is the benefits of Rel 2 are not worth the effort of installation. "It's too buggy, not to mention there's a lot of vaporware: promise of functionality that won't really be available until the next release in March 2003."
    I tell you, I wanted to cry when I heard that. Can you give me any ammo to contradict that opinion??
    And, if there's a Oracle front-end developer's List out there anywhere like the HTML Webmonster List, I would dearly love to know where to join!!
    One final point: the path links in the gray bars in the Oracle Discussion Forums are not coded properly. Look at the top of my first message where it says:
    Products > Portal > Performance and Scalability
    Click on any of those words; doesn't matter. You SHOULD go back up the path a level or two. But instead, you stay on the same page. Might as well click Refresh/Reload. The path links in the red bar at the top of the page work fine:
    Oracle Technology Network > Collaboration > My Forums
    They take you up the path. Just not in the gray bar.

  • 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.

  • OC4J instance is down in Oracle Portal Server

    Hi all,
    I am new to Oracle Portal 10g. In production environment the portal server component OC4J is automatically shutting down often and came back with few min's. Why it is happening?
    The server.log file has below entry
    " 07:59:37 10.1.2.3.0 Stopped (Shutdown executed by jazn.com/admin from 127.0.0.1 (localhost.localdomain))

    13/02/13 08:04:29 10.1.2.3.0 Started "
    Please advice me on this.

    Hi,
    The reason behind your error is because OC4J_BI_FORMS is being restarted repeatedly changing its status: Alive->Stop->Init->Alive.
    Disable the restart parameter from opmn.xml for OC4J component or increase the timeout value. Details given in given below metalink document id:

  • I can't sign up for Knowledge Exchange

    I am trying to access the Knowledge Exchange on Oracle's Protal Studio. Under the heading "To Access Your Personal Page on the Knowledge Exchange:" it says that you need to sign up for Portal developer Services "to begin sharing content with other developers". Following there is a "Signup" link. When I click on the link I get the following error:
    "Error: The portlet could not be contacted."
    I have been trying this for the last few days and continually get this error. Is there some other way to access Knowledge Services? Any Ideas on what i can do???

  • How can I uninstall a damaged installation of Fusion - PFRD 11.1.1.6.0 - Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer

    Hello,
    I am upgrading EBS 11i to 12i, Discoverer 4 to 11. After completing ebs installation and upgrade successfully, I am now working on the Oracle Fusion piece of the upgrade.
    I have installed
    1. JDK
    2. Repository Creation Utility - RCU (schema)
    3. Weblogic - WLS 10.3.6
    4. Oracle Fusion - Discoverer 11g Release 1 Patchset 1 11.1.1.2.0 PFRD
    5. Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patchset 11.1.1.6.0 - Patchset 13517084
    6. Executed config.sh and it failed with but continued.
         During the Configuration of Oracle Fusion with config.sh there was failure at with "fails at creating data sources" and accidentally proceeded and all seem to go well until after shutting down the servers when Weblogic Managed Server is unable to start.
    The start log indicated: "weblogic.store.PersistentStoreFatalException: [Store:280105]The persistent file store "_WLS_WLS_DISCO" cannot open file _WLS_WLS_DISCO000000.DAT." and I have been unable to find a solution for this error?
    See log file error at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15497130/oracle/ebs11/startManagedWebLogic.sh_nohup.out
    If re-installation is my only option, then what are the steps to uninstall, and which components do I have to uninstall given that I had upgraded all the schemas involved?
    Mathias

    Hey,
    You can always change the JDBC datasources in the Weblogic admin console . but have you recorded what is the specific error you got during the datasources creation .
    I prefer...create a new user , give him sysdba privillages . Start RCU and create the DEV_DISCOVERER , DEV_DISCOVERER_PS schemas (prefix is your choice)
    The Admin server will start . so go to admin console .
    click services -> Data Sources
    Check the data sources you have . edit each datasource and update the connection pool information .
    after this you can start the Managed server WLS_DISCO
    i believe this will solve this .........
    if you still get issue again . you can try the link Using the WebLogic Persistent Store
    Thanks
