Portal and OWA 2000 help

We are running Portal 3.0 with SP3 and HP1. HP1 was supposed to provide
functionality to bring OWA 2000 throught the rewriter, however this does not
work. We have selected the HTTP basic authentication and can get to OWA but
the Inbox does not display and a "Whitespace not allowed at this location"
error pops up. Anyone have any ideas??
TIA

With each Portal Server Service Pack or hotpatch, Sun tries to fix the rewriter to support OWA 2000 using the IE browser. But with each Microsoft Exchange 2000 service pack, the gap widens, and sadly to say, there is no usable IE support for OWA 2000 with the latest Exchange service packs (2 or 3).
Yes, Netscape works for the most part since OWA will use a dumbed-down html interface instead of the "rich" client.
Also, you have to connect to the Front-end Protocol server using BASIC Authentication, and can't connect to backend Exchange servers because of no support for NTLM.

Ask for a way to learn Oracle and Developer 2000. HELP PLEASE!!

Hi,
I want to learn Oracle database and developer 2000. So I need the softwares.I am going to download
1. Oracle Forms Developer/Server Release 6i for Windows NT
2. Oracle8i Personal Edition on NT
Before download them, I want to know if they can work together. I am in Australia, do you know where I can get the free softwares, or with lower price.
If you have another way for self-training, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Sue

They do work together, though the installation process is moderately complicated. You may want to check this web site: http://www.chow1.myweb.nl/
This site has some experiences and procedures that have worked in the past for this combination.
You should also check Amazon.com or your local tech bookstore for books on Developer.

Excel service and OWA - getting ERROR while trying to open/edit Excel documents

Hi All,
We have configured SharePoint 2013 with Excel Service and OWA (Office Web Apps).
After configuring, we are able to view/edit Word or PowerPoint documents from the browser (as OWA is configured). But we are getting errors while trying to open/edit Excel documents.
We are not able to view/edit the excel workbook from the browser (through OWA).
To open the excel in the browser, decision has to be taken at the farm level on what to be used – Excel Service or OWA Server? Is it possible to do setting at site collection level?

I just spoke to the Oracle App server admins, the two servers in question are clustered.
So my question changes slightly to:
What is the best way to install and configure a webgate for clustered Oracle App servers with mulitple virtual hosts, that are residing behind a load balancer (Traffic Manager)?
Thanks,

External access to Portal and CRM B2B

Hi,
We have the sap portal and also CRM Java ..we have deployed the CRM Business package on the portal and used the portal IView to call the CRM java application. What is the best way to expose both the portal and CRM java to the external users?
I know we can achieve this using sap webdisatcher, but there are certain limitation in sap webdispatcher when dealing with two separte host name..so please let me know how expose both portal and crm to the external users.
Thanks

First of all you need to have your network infrastructure in terms of Security Zones, SAP has a standard recommendation that I have always use when possible for growing your landscape and exposing your Solutions to either internal or external users:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/9d/44d7bc73ddce4f96f09de874350e78/content.htm
Depending on your security needs you can have 2 portals 1 external facing portal and one internal facing portal, or just 1 portal installed in the Inner DMZ , there is no formula is what your Architects prefer and there are pros and cons in any scenario.
Now answering your question you do not need to expose both instances (CRM and Portal) you only need to expose SAP Portal because the purpose of Portal is to provide a single point of access to your u201Cbackendu201D solutions in your case. So Sap Web Dispatcher will be good choice or you can use a Hardware Load Balancing, if this is for external users then you need HA.
Hope this helps.

SSO between Portal and Nakia.....problem with SSO... library not found..

Hi Sdn's and Nakisa tehnical experts,
We have a Portal environment 7.02 , a Nakisa environment 3.0 (CE) and and HR backend environment 701 (604).
We are busy setting up SSO between Portal and Nakisa via the, URL iview for the Org chart (http://<host>:<port>OrgChart/default.jsp).
We have done as indicated in wiki:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/SAPSSOAuthenticationwithverify.pseusingSAPSSOEXT
We are however stil having issues with the SSO and in the cds.log the following is being displayed:

Regards Dries

Hi Luke,
thanks a lot for your help so far.
I have created a root/XML folder under the diretory, and the path is now as follows:
K:\usr\sap\NKP\J14\j2ee\cluster\apps\Nakisa\OrgChart\servlet_jsp\OrgChart\root\.system\Admin_Config\__000__Sasol_DEV_LIVE\.delta\root\XML
It seems like it finds the verify.pse, but not the library, sapsecu.dll.
My credentials.xml file is as follows:
<credentials>
<assembly name="SapSso"/>
<info>
    <item name="PseFilePath">XML\verify.pse</item>
    <item name="SsfLibFilePath">XML\sapsecu.dll</item>

Oracle Portal and Discoverer Integration

Oracle Portal and Discoverer Integration
We're trying to integrate Discoverer with Portal unsuccessfully.
We made many things in accordance with oracle's documentation until add discoverer portlets (worksheet and list of workbooks) in a test page.
In view mode, the worksheet portlet shows the error:
"The portlet has not been defined. The publisher must define the portlet by clicking on Edit Defaults for the portlet on the edit mode of this page. Please contact the publisher of this page."
We think we have to edit properties before. Is this? Anyway edit worksheet portlet crashes between step 1 and 2. The error is: "The listener returned the following Message: 500 Internal Server Error".
We have a public conection created in EM and a discoverer application which can be viewed using plus or viewer.

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

Role mapping between Portal and Back end systems

I am new to SAP EP.
I just want to know how the mapping between portal and back end system happens.
Scenario : There is a role in ECC system...say FI India. Now there is a request by the FI team that they want to access this role from Portal. In this case, please tell me how the security team will do it. Because I guess, it has to be done by the security team.

Hi,
Usually the role from backend is uploaded to portal then it will be seen as Group and we need to assign our portal roles to this group. Please refer [this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/d6/7859ec80df46738e23ccb4f4c8c502/content.htm].

Relationship between Portal and back-end roles in business package

Hi all,
I wonder how technically works on the backend system when I install a BP for SAP EP. Let's say for example that I installed on the portal the business package for SRM. I will have on the Portal some roles configured (buyer, supplier, invoice manager, etc), and some iviews in them organized by pages and workest.
How can I see the relations with those roles and the roles on the SRM backend system? And then: if I modify a standard role on the Portal, adding new functionalites (iviews), I do update the backend role? We are going to implement SSO, and users will be the same on Portal and backend system. But that also means I need to assign users to backend roles on the backend system, isn't it?
I would be glad to you if someone can provide me also a link to a document explaining the relationshipe between backend roles management and portal roles management.
Thanks a lot,
Valentina

To add.. no, you will not update a backend SRM role if you update an iView on the Portal. The Backend roles will always be assigned to the user via PFCG and do not change automatically with the Portal roles.
This help document might help you understand the concept better (Look at the Permissions vs Authorisations section):
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c605c690-0201-0010-e8b5-94677245a46b
Hope this helps. I am sure SAP/SDN library has many such documents that you can read through.

Difference between using the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI

Hi Gurus,
Could one of you please send me a document that lists the differences between the Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI?
thanks in advance

Hi,
For groups, managedBy is an administrative convenience to designate “group admins”. Whatever principal listed in
managedBy gets permission to update a group’s membership (the actual security is updated on the group’s AD object to allow this).
In Win2008 and later managedBy also became the way you delegated local administration on an RODC, allowing branch admins to install patches, manage shares, etc. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755310(WS.10).aspx).
On the RODC, this is updating the RepairAdmin registry value within RODCRoles.
So the difference between them should be only the way they do the same thing.
For more details, please refer to the below article:

Certificate for Portal and BackendSystems. What do I have to take careAbout

Hello,
I would like to buy a certificate for the secured HTTP but I don't know what I have to take care about?
Where do you buy your certificates? Can I use "wildcards"-certificates for the portal and the backend-systems.
Is there a good shop for buying a certificate in Germany?
Thanks, Vanessa

Vanessa,
You can approach both Verisign and Thawte and collect information.
In case of Thawte, you can just go their site and there is an option for an online free chat with a Thawte associate. He/she will then guide you further.
They will also share the details required for the certificate to get authorized.
Plus before ordering, you can also check the correctness of ur certificate for free on their site.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ritu

Safari 7.0 and OWA 2010: constant reload warnings

That's what I see randomly, every few minutes, while using Outlook Web App (OWA) 2010. It makes using OWA virtually impossible because the page will reload in the midst of typing a mail message, losing the work in progress.
Some details:
No other window or tab had that webpage open, of course. Even after a fresh boot where loading a OWA bookmark was Safari was the only action taken, this occurs after what appears to be a random period of time.
Two different OWA acocunts that I have access to show this issue
Neither of the two OWA accounts showed this issue under OS X 10.8 and Safari 6
Firefox 24 on OS X 10.9 does not have this issue with the same OWA servers

I had 2 extensions installed, AdBlock and Reddit Enhancement Suite, with both at the most current version. I disabled extensions entirely and OWA appears to be stable now. Disappointing because these are very common extensions, but I'll do without them for now and keep an eye on their sites for updates.
My only remaining issue is that the Rogers OneNumber (http://www.hellorogersonenumber.com/) web phone now hangs in Safari, even with extensions disabled, but that's an item for another thread if I can't figure it out today.
Thanks for your help Carolyn!
