Portal and webcache headers

How is portal integrated with webcache. Is it possible to control the surrogate-control headers that portal include as caching directives to webcache? Is there a document or whitepapers that describes the portal and webcache integration in detail and how to configure it?
I know you can specify caching settings under page properties, but this is for controlling the plsql cache right?
Any feedback appreciated.

Hi Jason, I appreciate your responses to this.
The confiuguration is actually a little bit odd..
The customer originally installed ias with midtier and webcache on the same box. Let's call it WC1. Then they installed another standalone webcache in a DMZ (WC2). The idea was that internal users should access portal through WC1 while users from internet should access portal through WC2. Then Cachseed.sql was run to rewire
portal to WC2. It seems that even if the users access portal through WC2, portal still sends it requests to WC1 to check for page definitions. It's on WC1 where the Not cacheable according to Surrogate-Control header's
vary directive appears.
Just a thought: Could this behaviour indicate that the portal session cookie is not sent to WC1 and hence the Webcache won't cache the page definition even if the Surrogate control headers indicates that it should?
Another question:
Are there any reference architectures for this kind of setup with portal. There are a lot of customers that wants to route their intranet and internet users to portal via two different webcaches localized in different networks.
I am aware of the problem that Portal can only specify one host to send webcache invalidations to..

  • Excel sheet garbled when in portal and rendered in browser: ok on file-sys.

    Hi,
    We are facing a strange problem. Our WebLogic Portal App uses the JExcelAPI to generate an Excel spreadsheet when users click on a link to view the sheet. This sheet, when it opens in browser, appears garbled (special chars all over etc). However, the same file, when written to a local file instead of being written to the browser, works just fine!
    We set the following response headers:
    response.setContentType(contentType);
    response.setContentLength(length);
    response.setHeader("Pragma", "public");
    response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=0");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", createAttachmentFilename(name));
    We also set the @page directive, like so:
    <%@ page contentType="application/vnd.excel" %>
    Given that the file-based excel sheet is ok, we are thinking this problem is due to the way portal handles the response etc...can anyone please help figure this out? We are using JPF-based portlets.
    I can paste more code if needed.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vik.

    where are you printing the bytes out? If you are doing it within a portlet, this is wrong , it must be standalone.(you cannot change the the mime type of an included portlet page). If you want to do it within the portlet you must open a new link to a page/servlet that will print out the bytes (outside the Portal framework)
    if you have a standalone page(or servlet) and you are still facing this problem , use firefox and livehttpheaders or equivalent and post the request and response headers. If everything looks as it should be, then use Fiddler or any other proxy and inspect the actual bytes you are getting and compare with the file on file system bytes .

    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.

  • NetWeaver Portal and ERP 6.0: BI, ESS/MSS and full Portal on one machine

    Hello,
    with ERP 6.0 you need a EP Core Portal for BI Java. An other EP Core Portal for HCM ECC/MSS. The iViews from this portal you integrate in the main portal via federated portal. But in this scenario i need to much portals and have a lot of maintenance costs (administration overhead for evry portal). For a small Customer i will build one Portal for all. It is possible e.g. to use the BI Portal with ESS/MSS and as full portal?
    Best regards,
    Patrick

    Hi,
    So you would like one BI installation with both the ABAP and the Java-stack with the full BI-functionallity and additionally the XSS-component and set it up to work against the ECC ABAP-only system ?
    I think the scenario would actually work, but:
    1) You might get future problems if you want to upgrade your BI-system and not the ECC-system.
    Is it possible to run the old XSS-components in the new java-stack ?
    2) You might get future problems if you want to upgrade your ECC-system and not the BI-system.
    What if the new version of the XSS-component demands certain java-components which the BI-system do not have.
    So my recommendation is still to run the java-stack on both systems.
    ECC with the XSS-java-components and BI with the Bi-java-components.
    This way you do not lock yourself into a corner and each system can be upgrade independent of the other.

  • SSO between Portal and Java WD application

    Hi Experts,
    I am using CE 7.2 on localhost and I am very new to SAP.
    I need to know how can I get SSO between Portal and Java WD.  I have a WD application that displays the logged in user using "IUser currentUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getSAPUser()", as well I can use "IUser user = UMFactory.getAuthenticator().getLoggedInUser()".  Both work.
    Q1. What is the difference in the 2 above?
    Q2. My WD application is set to authenticate user.  The WD application is in URL iView.  I need SSO between Portal and WD application.   Is there a way to get this SSO without SAP Backend (ECC), for now I just need SSO between Portal and Java WD appl.
    Everything is in localhost.
    Please advice. Thanks.

    > need to know how can I get SSO between Portal and Java WD.
    Then I suggest you ask your question in the Web Dynpro Java forum instead of the Web Dynpro ABAP one.

  • SSO b/w portal and webdynpro application customized login??

    Hi,
    I  have one webdynpro application which has a login screen (Created as Webdynpro view). If user enters user/passord, the same gets checked from a custom table in the db (Method for checking user credtentials has been written in view controller). if user credentials are correct it performs some actions defined in webdynpro application.
    I want to configure SSO b/w portal and this webdynpro application sothat when user logon to the portal and open this webdypro application, Login page of webdynpro application should not be shown i.e user credentials should be passed from portal and corresponding authentication method in webdynpro should be called to authenticate the user.
    How to do the same without touching webdypro application ?
    Can we call a method of webdynpro application from portal?
    Regards
    Deepak

    1) To enable ticket authentication for the web dynpro iviews, you must maintain the definition of the system running the Web Dynpro application and set logon method to "SAPLOG"
    2)Since you have customized login screen, you need to bypass this screen manually when you login from portal.
    Add parameter to the application while defining the iview.Give some constant value.
    Check value of this parameter in webdynpro and fire to next view.

    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.

  • The problem about  integrate  Portal and R/3

    Hi everyone :
       We want to achieve that our vendor can query R/3 report via our Portal. I had done SSO configuration.
       But we had about 500 vendors, it is impossible that we create 500 R/3 users for our vendors,  because the cost is too much .
       And there is another problem, vendor who had the authorization to query report can query the other vendor's data at same time. But we expect that certain vendor can query his data only.
       I think this is a general problem when integrate Portal and R/3, BW .
       Is there somebody had solved this problem or give any advice?
       Any discuss is welcome.
    Best Regards,
    Jianguo Chen

    Hi,
    I would say: get in contact with your SAP account manager anc check which options SAP can offer you...
    Normally every user using a R/3 system has to have a valid user license in that system. Expecially when you want to access control to data on user (vendor) level you nedd to identifiy the user clearly and uniquely which by standard means you need a user for every vendor.

       And there is another problem, vendor who had the authorization to query report can query the other vendor's data at same time. But we expect that certain vendor can query his data only.
       I think this is a general problem when integrate Portal and R/3, BW .
       Is there somebody had solved this problem or give any advice?
       Any discuss is welcome.

    Hi,
    I would say: get in contact with your SAP account manager anc check which options SAP can offer you...
    Normally every user using a R/3 system has to have a valid user license in that system. Expecially when you want to access control to data on user (vendor) level you nedd to identifiy the user clearly and uniquely which by standard means you need a user for every vendor.
