Portal 10 p13n cache

hi,
We are migrating our portal 8.1 application to 10.
i am facing the following issue,
We are using CacheManagerMBean to flush the portal cache in our program.
But it seems in portal 10
'com.bea.p13n.mbeans.CacheManagerMBean' is not available.
Could you tell me how can i manage (flush) the portal cache using the admin mbean in portal 10?
Many thanks,

That information is very old and IMHO mostly wrong.
Read the javadocs on CacheFactory.flush():
[url http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs100/javadoc/com/bea/p13n/cache/CacheFactory.html
It does a cluster-wide flush of the cache, removing the key or the whole cache on all nodes of the cluster.
The underlying implementation uses the same multicast that the WLS server nodes use to keep in sync with each other. It is also exactly the same method that all the WLP internals use to keep caches in sync across a cluster.
If it doesn't work for you, then I'm sure support would like to hear why.

Custom p13n-cache-config.xml

Trying to implement 5.1 P13N CacheProvider SPI Implementation from link:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/coh.371/e22621/wlportal.htm#CHDIFHCD
In step 2: The p13n-cache-config.xml has been updated with the <default-provider-id>com.tangosol.coherence.weblogic</default-provider-id> line.
Question:
How can a custom p13n-cache-config.xml be loaded using a -D command?
Edited by: user734247 on May 1, 2013 1:28 PM

Hi,
The p13n-cache-config.xml needs to changed in each of your WLP application's META-INF directory. Coherence does not need this file but rather the provider configuration in file makes Portal application to start using coherence for p13 caching.

Portal Drive Cache

Hi All,
I have a question about the portal drive cache.
Portal Drive is a web dav client to connect to your portal content with the windows explorer.
My problem ist that Portal Drive stores cached data on the c:\-drive, in my environment
it is C:\Documents and Settings\tfelp4\Local Settings\Application Data\Xythos\cache.
My requirement is to store the cached files on another drive like d:\, because the c-drive is already full and only
used for storing pinstallation files.
Thanks for helping me
Steve

Any ideas so far??
Thanks in advance

Invalidating portal page cache

On a portal page, contents are rendered by portlets using java programs. With page caching on, the entire portal page is cached. Performance is great when users are navigating back to this portal page from other pages.
Because the portlets hold session context in the application, this portal page is invalid once a user signs out or closes the browser window. The problem is that if this portal page is cached, when the user signs in again portal would present the cached page without going to the portlets to re-establish a new session context.
What can we do to invalidate the cache of this portal page? We found nothing in the portal to specify any invalidation rules for a portal page. We believe we cannot invalidate the cached portal page from the application.
Any ideas will be appreciated,
Chung

With the following settings:
1. Portal page caching:
Cache Page Definition Only
2. Provider.xml of portlets:
<pageExpires>20</pageExpires>
3. Provider registration info:
Require portal user specific session information. (Option checked)
we get the following results:
- When portal user navigates back to the portal page consisting the portlets,
the page is rendered quickly. It's because provider.xml says portlets are good for 20 minutes.
- When a user logs out and within 20 minutes logs in again IN A NEW BROWSER WINDOW, a new session id will be used, portal will not use the cached portlets. Hence, requests will be made to the application and a new application session context will be created.
However, if the user uses the same browser window, then cached portlets will be used. It would encounter the application session timeout error. This restriction might be acceptable to customers.
We will recommend the above settings to the customer. Please verify that this is a valid solution.

Jar for com.bea.p13n.cache.Cache for weblogic 10: where to found it ?

Hi All,
Does anybody know which jar contains com.bea.p13n.cache API in Weblogic 10.x ?
It was in p13n_ejb.jar in Weblogic 8.1.

Please note the all configuration files are placed at their required locations.
Thanks,

Using P13N Caching Service in Cluster (J2EE Apps)-Not portals

Problem Statement: We are using the BEA Weblogic 8.1 app server for developing J2EE application in clustred environiment. We are running four managed servers and one admin server. (two managed servers for each hardware Dell 2250). For application performance we are caching some the data (Database Lookup tables and some dynamic data in appication scope). The problem exists with the dynamic data. When we clear the cache for dynamic data it is refreshing only in one instance of managed server. To resolve this problem, implemented the servlet 2.3 feature(HttpAttributeListner). I came to know that very quickly it won't solve the problem. I found interesting paper on BEA edocs. Here is the solution in BEA Portal world.
http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlportal/articles/jiang.jsp
Since we are not using the portal, is there any workaround to the solution?
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi,
One thing that can be helpful is to add the references of the JAR files that you are adding as Used DC in the EAR.
This can be done by adding Library type References in the application-j2ee-engine.xml Deployment descriptor in the EAR project.
Following link will be helpful: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/83/82814282cfc153e10000000a1550b0/content.htm

Clear portal navigation cache from java

Hi,
I've written a navigation connector service based on the example in the ep6 pdk. It works fine but if I make changes to its configuration so that some new navigation entries should appear/disappear, it may last up to 2 hours until they show up. I think the portal caches the navigation entries for each user. Is it possible to clear the nav cache for certain/all users with a java statement?
thanks in advance,
Markus

Hi,
if you know what you're doing and what the consequences of programming against a not-public API are, you could do the following:
CacheAccess cacheAccess = CacheAccess.getAccess("prt");
cacheAccess.invalidate();
build time dependency:
compile against j2ee\cluster\dispatcher\bin\ext\com.sap.ip.basecomps\BaseComps.jar
run time dependency:
add the SharingReference value SAPJ2EE::library:com.sap.ip.basecomps to your portal component deployment descriptor (dist/PORTAL-INF/portalapp.xml)

BI Beans Portal sample cache error

Hi,
I have tried to implement the BI Beans Portal sample, I have followed the instructions and everything has worked, however if I try and display a Portlet, I get the message "This view has not been cached yet".
I have cached all the Dataviews with the UpdateCache class, and can see cached Dataviews in the BI Catalog Explorer.
Has anyone got this working, or know where I have gone wrong.
Thanks,
Jon

I did resolve this issue, or I should say it resolved itself. It was one of those issues that I didn't change anything and it started working. I found that if I tried to explicitly name the dataviews that I wanted to cache in the java command line caching tool, it had a better chance of working.

Programmatically Delete Portal user Cache

Hi! I have a problem re-using the "Portal User Profile" portlet to put on my own portal page. It is not able to execute unless i am Portal Administrator (PORTAL). The requirement is that I need to clear the cache for a Particular User.
<br><br>
I tweaked the Portal User Profile Portlet and from the "View Source", was able to construct the following HTML and place it in an "HTML Portlet". But when I submit, it doesn't work. Am I missing something...? Any Help is greatly appreciated.

</form><br>

I'm glad with this (default) behaviour, although I would have no problems with a cascaded delete as an option.
We use portal for our intranet site, and a default cascaded delete, would mean that if a worker leaves our company, and therefore his account would be deleted, all his contributions to the intranet would be deleted too.

Portal 10g cache sucks

I've been struggling for a whole week now with caching issues on portal 10g (9.0.4 -linux).
Like other postings in this forum I get pages from another previous session in my browser, and since my portlets are browser dependent, this is very annoying: I get the page on a windows - ie just as the where made on the first visit as konqueror on linux.
Putting the cache off did not help: I stopped the webcache and the portal cache, same song allover again.
But for all who is having the same problem, I found a workaround that seems to work (only for own build portlets): I just put an extra parameter on the page (I called it ts - from timestamp) and give it the value of the millisecond the page was made. eg: &ts=20040306232915765, this seems to force the page to be regenerated (since it has a different parameter every time again).
Note: As I saw in some postings, one suggest to set the browsercache to 'every visit': sorry, you can't expect the whole world visiting your pages to do so!!!

Leo.
The browser cache setting for every visit to the page is a mandatory requirement to ensure that the content is managed in a timely and expeditious manner. If the user's browser is caching content then we (and you) cannot control the update of that content, and you will (as you've experienced) end up with stale content.
The 10g cache does not 'suck'. From the description you have given here, you are implying that you have turned on 'FULL PAGE' caching which causes 2 things to happen, the fully parsed and generated page is stored in the file cache for a specified period of time. The fully parsed and generated page is cached in the user's browser cache for a period of time (specified by you). When using this type of caching even if you clear the file cache you will still retain the cached objects in the browser cache for the stated retention period, only after that period has expired will the content be regenerated.
The reason the content regenerates when you add a parameter is because this forces the regeneration of a new and differing object (uniquely identified by the URL) which will subsequently be added to the cache.
If I have not described your scenario, please provide some more details about the types of portlets you have written, the pages they are placed on, and the caching decisions you have taken with regard to those portlets and pages.

Portal cache library

Hi I use portal cache in wlp1034 in one of my project. there are p13n_ejb and p13n_ejb_base. Which one should I use? Or both? Thanks!

Perhaps I'm not understanding your question, but the WLP Cache APIs are in com.bea.p13n.cache package.

Update Portal with new Web Cache location

Hi!
We are trying to move our front-end WebCache to a new server. The Web Cache seems to work allright, but I can't get Portal to access the Web Cache.
After moving the Web Cache I've updated the Portal Web Cache Settings in IAS console's portal:portal instance. OC4J_Portal and portal:portal are running and are not showing any errors in IAS console. When I try to access Web Cache through Portal administrative page i get an error saying WWC-40019 "Could not open web cache connection". The URL Portal uses to access Web Cache admin page i.e. is wrong.
I need some help finding the appropriate way to configure Portal with the new Web cache addresses.
Thank you!
Best regards
"Heyers"

Portal PM, I thought you said that this solution would not work. Everyone I have heard so far has said that you cannot configure webcache to work with Portal documents. Does this work or does it not?
Read the messages below from the bottom up.
It's not possible to do that today.
In 9.0.2 (the next release) we will be using WebCache configured out of the box so you won;t need to, however, till then you cannot use webcache with Portal 3.0.x
Thanks

Portal Commerce Templates in WLP 8.1?

Hi;
Just having a first look around the new WebLogic Platform 8.1, I wanted to
understand the strategy for developing and deploying e-Commerce websites.
It seems clear that it should be possible to host an existing WebLogic Portal
7 SP2 e-Commerce templates based web-site in a new WebLogic Portal 8.1 compatibility
domain.
The WLP 7 commerce templates are based on deprecated WebFlow and Pipeline technology
which is being superseded by PageFlow.
Will BEA or a partner will be supplying a WLP 7 SP2 Commerce templates style functionality
based on PageFlow technology for new developments?

You can use the <wl:cache> tag
(http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jsp/customtags.html#56944) in jsps to
cache dynamically generated JSP content.
In other, java-based code you can use the com.bea.p13n.cache.Caches,
which supports TTLs and external-flushing. See the WLP javadoc.

-The highly-personalized section with the reader's name doesn't get cached at

When a visitor requests a page, construct only those portlets that are not cached.
Then, portal builds the complete page out of the newly constructed portlets and
the cached portlets. On many complex sites, well over 90% of the page can be cached,
leading to vastly superior performance over sites that have to reconstruct the
entire page each time a visitor requests it.
We are looking at a competing product that can do all this.
