Portal and the Future.

We are under going a major re-development effort on our internal and external sites. Part of the project will be using portal.
We are planning the Portal part prototype on 1.0.2.2 but are a little concerned about the future changes of portal. We assume that the portal will have an upgrade script but we are worried more on the provider classes. Are they going to remain the same? Should we develop now or wait for the new version? Will it give us added access to the portal API to allow for addition functionality?
Thanks,

In iAS v9.0.2 (the next release of iAS), there will be 2 versions of the JPDK API - version 1 and version 2.
Version 1 is virtually identical to JPDK 3.0.9 (no API changes), with some additional functionality for supporting mobile devices. Version 1 will be supported as long as Oracle Portal release 3.0.x is supported.
Version 2 has some API changes and the packages have been re-organized. If you use the DefaultProvider and DefaultPortlet classes currently, the changes to you code will mainly be changes to import statements to reflect the new package structure. If you implement the Provider & Portlet interfaces or extend DefaultProvider/DefaultPortlet, you will have some additional code changes, but the changes are relatively simple.
In addition, most of the interfaces have been replaced by abstract classes.
These changes were made in the interest of future stability - allowing the API to be extended without breaking existing implementations.

  • Question About OAS Portal and the DB conections

    Hi,
    I 'm getting a lot of problems with the portal I'm creating, sometimes my DB goes down
    with this error:
    Fallo de la llamada para ejecutar el origen de datos. [No se ha podido establecer la conexión.
    This line in english says something like:
    Fail calling to execute data. [ It was not possible to stablish the connection
    [Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12519, TNS:no appropriate service handler found The Connection descriptor used by the client was: desarrollo06:1521:infra ]so I have to but down all the services and then put them up again, including the DB, so everything works well again.
    I want to know:
    - How many omniportlets, or conections to the database Can handle the OAS Portal??
    - Does the omniportlet closes the conection when it loaded the information?
    - Can there be a problem if I use many omniportlets (I mean if they don't close their conection?)???
    - And If so, how can i fix that??
    thanks in advance,

    hi Blume,
    1. the number of connections Portal handles with your db are setup in JDBC Connection Pool parameter.
    2. don't think so.
    3. I think, yeah, some of them will be expected behavior (eg, number of connections limit is exceeded) and some of them are due to some bugs (see answer 4.)
    4. there are a few bugs related to this connection problem in Portal 10.1.4.
    for instance, Check this note on Metalink (Doc ID:      394089.1) which says that:
    "OMNIPortlet uses connection object from the JDBC connection pool. When the database is restarted, the cached connection is invalid and the exception wasn't being caught."
    To fix that problem, you may need to apply a patch (Patch 5393955) on your portal midtier. You can get it from Metalink.
    5. btw, shutdown db may not be required to recover/restore connections; try simply restarting OC4J_Portal on AS Control Console.
    hope that helps!

  • Photo Organization and the Future

    Here's my concern - utilizing aperture to organize my projects and albums, departing from managing the file structure (which is getting impossible to keep up with) I have to assume that Apple and Aperture will always be around.
    What if in the future I want to switch to Light Room, or go back to windows? I have nearly 35,000 photo's now, and I imagine I'll have more in 50 years but I have no idea if Aperture will still be around in 50 years and If I stop paying attention to my file structure, I'll lose all the organization behind my masters.
    Aren't any of you concerned about the distant future? Apple could pull the plug on Aperture; somebody else could come out with somethign better; etc.

    No, I'm not concerned about my file structure. The fact that Aperture takes care of that for Managed libraries doesn't mean that there is no structure. The library normally resides in the Pictures folder. If you open the package you will find the folder for all your masters - the structure there can be easily decoded. There are lots of other files used by Aperture when manipulating or displaying images. If you need to get your original photo images at some time they are there. If you shoot in RAW then you might need to worry about some future time when no one supports your camera's version of RAW, but that's a different issue. You can also, in the distant future, export your edited photos to a new location.
    If you have a Referenced library then you are responsible for the storage, backup and structure of those images.

  • ColdFusion and The Future

    Admittedly, I've been a bit out of touch ... however I was
    wondering what the future of ColdFusion is regarding Adobe... have
    they made any announcements about the future of ColdFusion? How
    will it compete with formats such as PHP/mySQL in the future? Being
    a long time fan of Cold fusion, I'm curious about this.

    >> 2. Image manipulation functionality -- provides both
    high-level tag
    based abstractions for common tasks like resizing, cropping,
    and
    format conversions
    That so slack how CF still doesn't have this functionality
    already - lets
    hope its not too late to make a difference. Nice feature
    though, sounds like
    it may be quite sophisticated.
    All in all though, based on what has been revealed here, it
    doesn't sound
    like much of an update - would still like to see some higher
    level
    framwework stuff, or maybe even a ColdFusion IDE (Heck, how
    can they sell
    this product at this price and not even offer an IDE for it?)
    Lets hope the future reveals something a little more exciting
    than what was
    mentioned here.

  • Authorization loss and the future

    For whatever reason, my laptop lost track of the fact that I'd deauthorized it before sending it in to have its MB replaced (Nvidia recall).
    When I reauthorized, the process 'ate up' my remaining 5/5 authorizations.
    (A) Is there any appeal process for this?
    (B) I'm pretty sure that, a few years ago, I 'reset' my authorizations (you try having two teenagers in the house) and was told no more resets would be made available. Do I have this right? Worried about what will happen if I need a fresh authorization in the future.

    Thank you!!!
    Meg St._Clair wrote:> It is generally a good idea to deauthorize a computer before resinstalling system software or doing major hardware upgrades. Then, just reauthorize when you're done. This will prevent the problem.
    Yep: thus this from my initial post here:

  • OWB bugs, missing functionality and the future of OWB

    I'm working with OWB for some time now and there are a lot of rough edges to discover. Functionality and stability leave a lot to be desired. Here's a small and incomplete list of things that annoy me:
    Some annoying OWB bugs (OWB 10g 10.1.0.2.0):
    - The debugger doesn't display the output parameters of procedures called in pre-mapping processes (displays nothing, treats values as NULL). The mapping itself works fine though.
    - When calling selfmade functions within an expression OWB precedes the function call with a constant "Functions." which prevents the function from being executed and results in an error message
    - Occasionally OWB cannot open mappings and displays an error message (null pointer exception). In this case the mapping cannot be opened anymore.
    - Occasionally when executing mappings OWB doesn't remember changes in mappings even when the changes were committed and deployed
    - When using aggregators in mappings OWB scrambles the order of the output attributes
    - The deployment of mappings sometimes doesn't work. After n retries it works without having changed anything in the mapping
    - When recreating an external table directly after dropping the table OWB recreates the external table but always displays both an error message and a success message.
    - In Key Lookups the screen always gets garbled when selecting an attribute as a join condition
    - Usage of constants results in aborts in the debugger
    - When you reconcile a table used in a key lookup the lookup condition sometimes changes. OWB seems to remember only the position of the lookup condition attribute but not the name.
    - In the process of validating a mapping often changes in the mapping get lost and errors occur like 'Internal Errors' or 'Null Pointer Exceptions'.
    - When you save the definition of external tables OWB always adds 2 whitespace columns to the beginning of all the lines following 'ORGANISATION EXTERNAL'. If you save a lot of external table definitions you get files with hundreds of leading whitespaces.
    Poor or missing functionality:
    - No logging on the level of single records possible. I'd like the possibility to see the status of each single record in each operator like using 'verbose data' in PowerCenter
    - The order of the attributes cannot be changed. This really pisses me off expecially if operators like the aggregator scramble the order of attributes.
    - No variables in expressions possible
    - Almost unusable lookup functionality (no cascading lookups, no lookup overrides, no unconnected lookups, only equal condition in key lookups)
    - No SQL overrides in soruces possible
    - No mapplets, shared containers or any kind a reusable transformations
    - No overview functionality for mappings. Often it's very hard to find a leftover operator in a big mapping.
    - No copy function for attributes
    - Printing functionality is completely useless
    - No documentation functionality for mappings (reports)
    - Debugger itself needs debugging
    - It's very difficult to mark connections between attributes of different operations. It's almost impossible to mark a group of connections without marking connections you don't want to mark.
    I really wonder which of the above bugs and mssing functionality 'Paris' will address. From what I read about 'Paris' not many if at all. If Oracle really wants to be a competitor (with regard to functionality) to Informatica, IBM/Ascential etc. they have a whole lot of work to do or purchase Informatica or another of the leading etl tool
    vendors.
    What do you think about OWB? Will it be a competitor for the leading etl tools or just a cheap database add on and become widely used like SAB BW not for reasons of technology or functionality but because it's cheap?
    Looking forward to your opinions.
    Jörg Menker

    Thanks to you two for entertaining my thoughts so far. Let me respond to you latest comments.
    Okay, lets not argue which one is better.. when a tool is there .. then there are some reasons to be there...But the points raised by Jorg and me are really very annoying. Overall I agree with both yours and Jorg's points (and I did not think it was an argument...merely sharing our observations with each other (;^)
    The OWB tool is not as mature as Informatica. However, Informatica has no foothold in the database engine itself and as I mentioned earlier, is still "on the outside looking in..." The efficiency and power of set-based activity versus row-based activity is substantial.
    Looking at it from another way lets take a look at Microstrategy as a way of observing a technical strategy for product development. Microstrategy focused on the internals (the engine) and developed it into the "heavy-lifting" tool in the industry. It did this primarily by leveraging the power of the backend...the database and the hosting server. For sheer brute force, it was champion of the day. It was less concerned with the pretty presentation and more concerned with getting the data out of the back-end so the user didn't have to sit there for a day and wait. Now they have begun to focus on the presentation part.
    Likewise this seems to be the strategy that Oracle has used for OWB. It is designed around the database engine and leverages the power of the database to do its work. Informatica (probably because it needs to be all things to all people) has tended to view the technical offerings of the database engine as a secondary consideration in its architectural approach and has probably been forced to do so more now that Oracle has put themselves in direct competition with Informatica. To do otherwise would make their product too complex to maintain and more vendor-specific.
    I am into the third data warehousing/data migration project and my previous two have been on Informatica (3 years on it).I respect your experience and your opinions...you are not a first timer. The tasks we have both had to solve and how we solved them with these tools are not necessarily the same. Could be similar in instances; could be quite different.
    So the general tendency is to evaluate the tool and try to see how things that were needed to be done in my previous projects can be done with this tool. I am afraid to say .. I am still not sure how these can be implemented in OWB. The points raised by us are probably the fall out of this deficiency.One observation that I would make is that in my experience, calls to the procedural language in the database engine have tended to perform very poorly with Informatica. Informatica's scripting language is week. Therefore, if you do not have direct usability of a good, strong procedural language to tackle some complicated tasks, then you will be in a pickle when the solution is not well suited to a relational-based approach. Informatica wants you to do most things outside of the database (in the map primarily). It is how you implement the transformation logic. OWB is built entirely around the relational, procedural, and ETL components in the Oracle database engine. That is what the tool is all about.
    If cost is the major factor for deciding a tool then OWB stands far ahead...Depends entirely on the client and the situation. I have implemented solutions for large companies and small companies. I don't use a table saw to cut cake and I don't use a pin knife to fall trees. Right tool for the right job.
    ...thats what most managers do .. without even looking how in turn by selecting such a tool they make the life tough for the developers.Been there many times. Few non-technical managers understand the process of tool evaluation and selection and the value a good process adds to the project. Nor do they understand the implications of making a bad choice (cost, productivity, maintainability).
    The functionality of OWB stands way below Informatica.If you are primarily a GUI-based implementer that is true. However, I have often found that when I have been brought in to fix performance problems with Informatica implementations that the primary problem is usually with the way that the developer implemented it. Too often I have found that the developer understands how to implement logic in the GUI component (the Designer/Maps and Sessions) with a complete lack of understanding of how all this activity will impact load performance (they don't understand how the database engine works.) For example, a strong feature in Informatica is the ability to override the default SQL statement generated by Informatica. This was a smart design decision on Informatica's part. I have frequently had to go into the "code" and fix bad joins, split up complex operations, and rip out convoluted logic to get the maps to perform within a reasonable load window. Too often these developers are only viewing the problem through the "window" of the tool. They are not stepping back and look at the problem in the context of the overall architecture. In part Informatica forces them to do this. Another possible factor is they probably don't know better.
    "One tool...one solution"
    Microstrategy until recently had been suffering from that same condition of not allowing the developer to create the actual query). OWB engineers need to rethink their strategy on overriding the SQL.
    The functionality of OWB stands way below Informatica.In some ways yes. If you do a head-to-head comparison of the GUI then yes. In other ways OWB is better (Informatica does not measure up when you compare it with all of the architectural features that the Oracle database engine offers). They need to fix the bugs and annoyances though.
    .. but even the GUI of Informatica is better than OWB and gives the developer some satisfaction of working in it.Believe me I feel your pain. On the other hand, I have suffered from Informatica bugs. Ever do a port from one database eingine to another just to have it convert everything into multi-byte? Ever have it re-define your maps to parallel processing threads when you didn't ask it to?
    Looking at the technical side of things I can give you one fine example ... there is no function in Oracle doing to_integer (to_number is there) but Informatica does that ... Hmm-m-m...sorry, I don't get the point.
    The style of ETL approach of Informatica is far more appealing.I find it unnecessarily over-engineered.
    OWB has two advantages : It is basically free of cost and it has a big brother in Oracle.
    It is basically free of cost...When you are another "Microsoft", you can throw your weight around. The message for Informatica is "don't bite the hand that feeds you." Bad decisions at the top.

  • ISight, Apple Care, and the future...

    Hi there. I have a few questions I am looking for answers for...
    First off I am definately going to buy a MacBook Pro. I need it for the end of September but am not sure when the best time to buy is. I heard that Apple were introducing a new chip type in September but I'm not too keen using publicly untested products (think the first week of the Pro being released). Can anyone confirm this is true? Also are Apple releasing/upgrading anything in the next few months?
    Secondly, can you use the in-built camera with MSN Messenger?
    And lastly what are the benefits to Apple Care? It's a lot of money. Is it worth it?
    Thanks to all in advance

    I heard that Apple were introducing a new chip type in September but I'm not too keen using publicly untested products (think the first week of the Pro being released). Can anyone confirm this is true? Also are Apple releasing/upgrading anything in the next few months?
    This first question is something no one here can answer, since only Apple employees under a nondisclosure agreement would know the answer. Also, speculation about future products is something Apple doesn't allow on their forums. But there are a lot of other forums where you can discuss this.
    Secondly, can you use the in-built camera with MSN Messenger?
    At least when this post was answered, it looks like the answer was no. But that could have changed since then, possibly, and there were also some suggestions in that topic for alternate MSN Messenger clients. Check for a new version of MSN messenger or any information about future plans for updates, maybe?
    And lastly what are the benefits to Apple Care? It's a lot of money. Is it worth it?
    That's for you to decide, but in my opinion it's worth it. It extends the hardware warranty to a total of three years, and since it's an actual Apple warranty, not a third-party warranty extension, it's very easy to get service under the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP). I find it valuable for notebook computers, which tend to have more odd issues over time due to more moving parts, etc. And it seems especially likely that one might need an extended warranty for a computer with as new technology and design as the MacBook Pro. For some details about how an APP works, see Is phone support and warranty service free?
    It does not cover accidental damage. For that kind of coverage you need to look to homeowner's insurance or a computer insurance policy.
    Keep in mind that while the list price of an APP for a MacBook Pro is $350, you can buy it from any Apple authorized retailer and pay significantly less, sometimes as low as $270, easily for $300.

  • Adobe Forms in Portal and the standard Code of Conduct

    Hi All,
    We have ECC6 Portal 7 Adobe Reader 7.0.8 Adobe Lifecycle and its all working.
    - In R3, I have Copied the standard scenario SECC in QISSCENARIOS to ZECC
    - In R3, Changed and activate the form and interface there or in SFP
    - In the Portal, I can copy either the Code of Conduct iView or the IsrForm iView.
    - Now the ISR Cookbook says that i must add 'PCD parameters scenario and mode'...but it doesn't say what to add them to or what the format is. Or what the values of mode might be. My scenario is called ZECC to I have tried putting scenario=ZECC into the Application Parameters of the iView and into the Parameters to Pass from Page of the iView. NOTHING.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Jimmy.

    Hi,
    Well,I think you have done the required stuff from ECC side. But now for EP side, you got to create a new <b>Java Webdynpro IView</b> with the following Details...
    NameSpace : <b>sap.com/pcui_gp~isr</b>
    Application Name : <b>IsrForm</b>
    Application Parameters : <b>SCENARIO=ZECC&MODE=CREATE&sap.xss.disablehdr=True</b>
    And test the IView individually.
    Let us know if it still gives you some problem.

  • A Question of HD DVD and the future

    Currently, iDVD 6 burns DVDs as SD 640 x 480 resolution, regardless of the source material.
    I am currently using Photo to Movie to create 16:9 HD movies with 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, which I know will be scaled down to SD when I render this in iDVD.
    Is there any current software that can render my movie to that full HD resolution and, if so, what sort of HD burner would I need?
    Or, should I wait for iDVD 7 (assuming this will cope) and a new Mac DVD burner built in?

    Hi Karsten!

    http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=177&mo delid=14059
    or I might just keep the Sony TRV900 as well since I don't know exactly how useful my G4's will be with HD content (if at all).

  • Poor service and the saga of the Home Hub 2.0

    Since upgrading to Total broadband 3 earlier this year, I've had problems with the Home Hub 2.0 (type a).  It keeps locking up/crashing.  Its the home hub rather than the broadband connection, which when used with a Linksys modem router works fine.  
    I've run through usual fault finding and rectification - hard reset, plugging into test socket, countless line tests.  of course trying to get BT call centre staff to understand its the home hub thats playing up/at fault, not the connection, is like banging ones head against a very hard wall.  For a piece of equipment less than a year old it should work without problem.  And I was tempted to go to PC world and buy a replacement modem, but decided to preserve with  BT's 'help' desk.
    Over the past 3 or 4 months I've probably made one help desk call about the same issue each month.  Have to repeat myself time and time again and get fobbed off with another excuse, or promise of call back.
    Eventually got through to a supervisor - after insisting when a call log was closed and marked 'resolved' when we were still having the problems and hadn't had a call back.  Repeated my issues for the 4th or so time, went through what I had done to date (restore to factory settings, checking its logs, etc etc)  he finally consented to send a replacement home hub.
    I get an email telling me it would be delivered on the 6th before 6pm.  But of course it wasn't.  And I did as the email said, and tried to phone the number to say it hadn't arrived only to get an answer phone message saying the help desk was shut.
    So wasted my lunch break today on the phone to BT trying to find out where it was, only to learn that BT had posted it to a previous address which I haven't lived at for 4 years.  Well done BT, it takes real skill to be that rubbish.
    Fingers crossed another new one is on its way to the right address.
    I have however a couple of questions, which as I can't face phoning the call centre again I thought I'd post on here:
    1) How on earth did BT manage to send  the replacement home hub it to the wrong address?  Especially since the original one was sent to the correct address & my delivery address is set  correctly on the web portal and the agent handling the call confirmed the address? - and what are you going to do to ensure it doesn't happen again (dare I mention data protection - as the home hub pack presumably has some personal details on it..)
    2) In the final call today I was asked for my date of birth and mothers maiden name so they could add it to the account - afterwards having not been asked by BT for this before on countless calls  I wondered is this standard practice - or should I now be worried?
    3) How do you have a sensible discussion with someone - preferably in the UK - about the customer experience?  As mine as has been rubbish (you might be able to tell from the tone of this post), and I'm regretting ever having upgraded and wishing I had instead gone to another broadband provider.
    4) Given that issues with certain models of home hubs seem to be known issues (at least to google) why do the call centre agents always focus on the broadband connection -(typical conversation with an  Agent "..so your connection keeps dropping", Me: "No the connection is fine.  The home hub has crashed again". Agent "So your connection has dropped"? and on and on) rather than actually listening to the customer. (Can you reset it - yes already have, several times  and so on)
    Any answers from a moderator would be welcome.
     I am actually happy with BT's  broadband product, and don't want to have to go through the hassle of changing provider, I'm just disgruntled at how bad the home hub has been, and how poor the customer service has been.
    Thanks.

    Hi EKandrew,
    To be honest I have not heard of the hub locking up before.  The questions you have been asked by our helpdesk are aimed specifically at your connection as most problems tend to occur here, either with slow speed or hub drops etc.
    Could you be more specific in how the hub locks/crashes? What do you notice when this happens? What way do you have your connection set up?
    As much info as possible would help
    In answer to your questions:
    1/ Sometimes we have an old address still on your account and this has not been updated for packages/correspondance.
    2/ Nothing to worry about, we ask these questions for additional security.  If you have quoted your account number previously this is normally enough for most things however the advisor probably just noticed we didnt have this info on file.
    4/ As above, this is not a common problem and most issues that come to us are to do with your connection.

  • 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

  • ISE Guest Portal and one more SSID using internal accounts

    Hi Guys,
    I have two SSIDs on WLC, the first is related with ISE Guest Portal and the second is related with employee but i realize that the
    Guest user can access the employee SSID and employee accounts can access the Guest portal page.
    I guess this is happen because i cannot split these databases under "Internal Users" on Authentication Policy.
    How can i restrict the access even if i am using the internal databse?
    thanks a lot

    using the Authorization policy is the right way.  Match the corp ID store to the corp WLAN SSID ID in the AuthZ policy, for example (where Employee is your corp ID store and yyyy is the name of your corp SSID):

    If Oracle Portal is running on Apache/Jserv, which is the only application server it runs on as far as I know, then that's your problem. JDeveloper uses one of the newer Servlet specificatione, 2.1 or 2.2, where as Jserv is using a very old one. 2.0, which doesn't support the session.setAttribute() method.
    I happen to know a little bit about portal and the JPDK. You do have the option of using the ProviderSession object that is provided by the JPDK PortletRenderRequest.getSession() method. I believe they have a setAttribute() method in there. In fact, if you want this object in the user's session, then you HAVE to use the ProviderSession from the JPDK.
    There are some other configurations you have to set to use this, you must specify to use session in your provider.xml, and you must also set the login frequency on the provider registration page to "Once per user session".

  • SSL: Portal and Third-Party-Tool

    Hello everybody,
    I need an advice how to solve the following problem: We integrated a Third-Party-WebTool with the Application Integrator. If we lauch the portal and the special iView with HTTP everything works fine but with HTTPS we get an error message: "Session Management will not work! Please check DSM log files for details. You can turn off this alert inside 'Support Desk' -> 'SAP Application'"
    Do I need those logs? Because if I understood the message correctly this deals only with SAP Applications. What about Third-Party-Tools with own SSL certificates? How solve the problem described above? Do I need to import the certificate of my Third-Party-Tool into my portal keystorage? Do I need to configure anything else?
    Thanks in advance...
    Regards
    Steffen

    I would be very appreciated if anybody could give me an advice...
