Oracle Webcenter Portal and UCM Problem

hi, I'm using both applications but it seems UCM always ask authentication before viewing the checked in files to webcenter portal.
How can I view the files checked in to UCM through webcenter without UCM authentication??????????I set the files security to public.
Thanks

Looks like the configuration of UCM (SSXA) is not completed in your system. Take a look at this manual http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e13650/toc.htm to understand the relationship between region definitions and placeholders. Note that Content Presenter is just a client here (it's a matter of WebCenter Content configuration).

Webcenter Portal and UCM - Content Presenter Error

Hello,
I get an error while I'm adding a Content Presenter over the default resource catalog of my webcenter portal application and try to create content.
When pressing the create content button a new browserpage opens and after beeing logged in to the Content Server the cs/resources/wcm/custom/sitestudio/contentwizard/webcenter/contentwizard.hcsp is called and this error message appears as an alert:
"*this placeholder is restricted, but no region definitions have been specified*"
Thanks for any advice!

Oracle WebCenter Portal query

Now I have 3 tabs: Home, Staff and Student. When I expand Home tab, there are Home and Documents. When I expand Staff tab and Student tab, there is Home. Now I want to add something calls “Files” in Staff tab, how do I do it? So when I expand Staff tab, there are Home and Files. I am using Oracle WebCenter Portal and creating portal.

Following materials seems to be useful to you, however, some of them may be bit old compared to latest 11.1.1.8.6 WebCenter Portal available as of now :

How can I customize the whole oracle webcenter portal

We have a project that uses oracle webcenter portal. I want to customize it starting to its landing page til the content. I tried using extending webcenter spaces project but my build.xml has an error in clicking clean-stage. I followed the instructions correctly but still not working. I also tried following the tutorial about customizing at runtime, it works but its only for a specific tab. Is there any other way in customizing the product?
here is the error in build.xml:

help me pls thx

It assumes that you have this file available in your jdev
${jdeveloper.install.home.directory}/modules/net.sf.antcontrib_1.0.0.0_1-0b2/lib/ant-contrib.jar
Add ant-contrib.jar into jdeveloper\modules\net.sf.antcontrib_1.0.0.0_1-0b2\lib directory. You can download it from http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/portal/downloads/owcs-portalfw-vbox-284132.html
I want to run in a VirtualBox Linux setup etc.
I have downloaded all the files except the REAVDD-HOL-WC.ovf which would not download so I saved in browser to the same directory etc.
I have set the preferences in Virtual Box to the same directory where I have downloaded the files to but when I Import Applicance and select C:\users\Tony\Virtual Box VMs and select the defaults and import I get an error box stating:
Failed to import appliance C:\Users\Tony\VirtualBox VMs\REAVDD-HOL-WC.ovf.

I've imported this appliance (and others) on Windows 7 32-bit on a Lenovo W500, on an iMac, and on a MacBook. The one error you should encounter during the "import appliance" step is a path error related to shared folder (the canned/hard-coded path in the ovf file points to a place that is not likely to exist on your computer, so just comment out the D:\TEMP\Host path, or make it for that matter).



You can alter system set memory_target=300M scope=both and set your VM memory to 2.5GB and everything will run fine (using the vmctl script to start up what's needed). The "1" option is all that is needed for the tutorial shown in the documentation. If you run the admin server, you will see things run a good bit slower. Part of the tutorial assumes you know about UCM and how to take the UCM content in the sample files and upload those into the repository. You can delete the file already loaded and then do a single file upload to "re-load" the various directories/folders for the menu/home/etc. Upload the png and other files into the same folder (menu.html, menuBanner.png, etc. all go into the same Menu folder). It's not worth the time to set the bulk upload because you have to go out into UCM and dig around the admin settings, stop/restart, and so on. You can also use the contentadmin user (welcome1) to do the file upload.

How to integrate Events from Siebel application to Oracle Webcenter portal

Hi
We have a requirement where one application resides in Siebel and the poral is running on Oracle Webcenter Portal. Here we want to see the events/appointment which are created in Siebel Application, should be visible in Oracle Webcenter Portal's calendar as soon as user logs in. It is a Hospital portal, and appointments are created in Siebel Application and when Doctor logs in to portal (running on Oracle webcenter portal), user should be able to see them on his Calendar/event.
Please help me how to go ahead with it.
Regards,
Sid

Hi All,
Not sure that I agree with my friend Yannick on this. I think that you can change to point to a different DBMS. You might be able to do this by reconfiguring the Siebel server and give SQL Server as your DBMS and then give the correct SQL connect into. At worst case I think you can change the server data source named subsystem. You will need to change the DLL name and well as the connect info. If the reconfiguration does not work your best bet would be to compare the settings from your server data source for Oracle to a known good server data source for SQL Server.
BTW, why would you make this change? As a database Oracle can’t be beat. 11g is incredible.

Hi experts,
I need an answer to the foll.
' We have several different applications integrated in Oracle Webcenter Portal: Spaces (11.1.1.8) via Portal builder. Can you list me the different features the portal can leverage to the underlying applications?
Ex: Can we remove header from the integrated application and show in the portal?
What can be performed with the data we recieve from an external application? - can we build dashboards etc?
If a application have browser compatibility issues, can they be fixed after integrating in portal?
Datawarehousing etc.,
I understand the requirement is not completely clear, but any documentation that portal offers to underlying applications would be helpful.
Thanks.

Documentation for oracle webcenter wiki and blog server 10.1.3.2.0

Hi
Can anyone tell me where I can get the documentation for oracle webcenter wiki and blog server 10.1.3.2.0. I am specifically interested in this version and not the latest version Oracle® WebCenter Wiki and Blog Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.4.0) because I have heard the older version provided out of the box portlets for creation of blogs.
Since we want blogs very fast, I want documentation of this older version.
Can anyone point them out to me as soon as possible please

You can find the demo portlets here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/webcenter/owcs_10132_demos.html#wiki_blog_disc_samples
I do not believe there were any portlets provided with the earlier release.
Anyway what i think is it should not take you more than a few hours to integrate blogging functionality if you are using the Connection & Task flows provided by WebCenter.

WebCenter Portal and Portlet support in JDeveloper 11.1.2 version

Hi,
When the WebCenter Portal and Portlet application creation will be available within JDeveloper 11.1.2 version ?
Thanks
Eli

Thanks for your answer.
My Requirements are:
1) Develope a stand alone ADF FACES(JSF 2.0) application
2) Develope a Portal using webcenter- We need to implement portlets by taking some of the functonality that was implemented in section (1) and use the Portlet-JSF bridge to create the portlets.
Basically, we need to support JSF 2.0 standart.
As I understood I must use the JDeveloper 11.1.2 version as it support the JSF 2.0. but what about the Webcenter and the Portlet-JSF bridge to support JSF 2.0 ?
I will be happy to get a clarification for those requirments.
Thanks a lot !

Unable to display the Content of a data file from within another data file in Oracle webcenter portal.

We have a Content Presenter taskflow. This task flow is added to a jspx page. The taskflow fetches the content from the contributor data file. The contributor data file is having a WYSIWYG editor. The content of the WYSIWYG editor is being displayed correctly through the task flow.
We have some links in the WYSIWYG editor. These links again point to some data files. When we click on these links from within the portal, then we are getting a blank page(the url of this blank page is: http://localhost:7101/eWSIBPortal/faces/oracle/webcenter/sitestructure/render.jspx?datasource=UCM%23dDocName%3AWSIB_ARTICLE) and not displaying the content of the data file that we are pointing to from the WYSIWYG editor.
We want to display the content of these data files(which we have pointed from WYSIWYG editor) in-line within the portal.
Please help us to resolve this issue and let us know if any information is required from our end.

Thanks for reply. However, can I use XSQL to dump the formated text to a file? or just can display to client through web browsers?

WebCenter PS4 and UCM 11gR1-11.1.1.4.0

About to start installing the latest version of WebCenter PS4 and want to link it to an already existing instance of UCM which is "11gR1-11.1.1.4.0-idcprod1-110927T172036 Build 7.3.0.180". Is there any particular problems anyone is aware or should this work just fine?
I don't really want to start with an older version of WebCenter if I can avoid it.
Dave

Hi
Yes, that will work as well since all that we are doing is to connect Webcenter to UCM which will act as the repository .
Thanks

Where is the download for Oracle Weblogic Portal and current documentation?

The web page for Oracle Weblogic Portal has a download link, but nothing happens when I click it:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic-portal/downloads/index.html
I've downloaded the documentation
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic-portal/documentation/index.html
which is supposed to be for version 10.3, but the dates on the documents are all from 2008. I don't see anything indicating support for JSR 286 in those documents.
Are there more up-to-date documents for the latest version of Oracle WL Portal?
Thanks.
Dean

Hi Dean
Looks like that site is down. On Firefox, I checked in Error Console window and it shows some java script error like acceptAgreement is not found etc. This link did worked earlier. I hope they fix it asap. Same problem with IE browser also (java script error).
Coming to documentation, based on your link, I hope you are using 10.3.2 docs. I clicked on View Library and then select Portlet Development -> Java Portlets link and got this link: This link does cover JSR 286 stuff. For more indepth JSR 286, you can google and get more details.

Oracle SSO 10g with Oracle WebCenter portal 11g (11.1.1.8)

My client is having an existing Single Sign On solution (SSO 10g) and now we are implementing webcenter portal 11g (11.1.1.8).
The client is going for OID 11g for the new implementation and wants old SSO to be used for single sign on.
Here's the stack:
1. Oracle SSO 10g - existing one and client is not interested in upgrading to OIM/OAM 11g.
2. Oracle OID 11g - new install and client is ready for migration.
3. Oracle WebCenter 11g - the custom portal whose build is in progress.
We want to bring the new portal implemention under the SSO umbrella for authentication and authorization.
The questions are:
1. Is this discouraged by Oracle? I mean, if you are using 11g for WCP and 11g for OID why not migrate to OIM/OAM 11g ?
2. Can I configure my new portal for this old SSO? if yes, is there any documentation for it? Are there any limitations/demerits in this approach?
3. Is there any other bettter way out there which I am not aware of?
Thanks in advance
