Hi All,
I have good understanding about the BEA Application server as such, but am fairly new to BEA portal and wish to learn BEA Portal framework. Could any please point me to some tutorials on the framework and API.
I did check out the Javadoc for the portal framework in BEA EDOCS site, but I wish if some additional documentation on the <u>framework architecture and its key components</u> would be easy to understand.
ThanksHi,
If you are working on Bea weblogic portal 8.x ,the workshop help is very good.You can start with sample application which comes with weblogic workshop.
With portal 9.2 there is no much help but again few samples are given in the workshop help which will be good to start learning.

How to change the start up page in Portal Framework..
Hii guys...
I have created a webcenter portal framework application, with two new pages - a myLogin page and a Document page(which will display content from webcenter content).
The pages are working fine.
I simply want to display the myLogin page when i run the application as startup page.
For this i have made changes into the index.html fine by changing the url to the "webcenter/portalapp/pages/myLogin"
When i run the application for the first time its working fine..
But when i am running it for the second time the page is automatically redirecting to some login.jsp and keep getting refresh.
I also tried running myLogin page directly by making changes in the welcome file option in web.xml.
I have deleted index.html from welcome file list and instead added the myLogin page.
But when i run the application it automatically load the index.html and the same problem continues.
Do anyone knows where i am making mistake or what changes should i make to simply display the myLogin page when i run the application..!!
Thanks..Hi,

Advantages of using Portal in HCM implementation
Dear all,
I need to implement HCM in one of our existing SAP ERP R3 4.7 systems. I also need to get my ESS to be published as a webpage for all my employees at different geographical locations. Please advice me on the advantages and dis-advantages of the scenarios explained below.
Scenario 1: Only using ITS (Internet Transaction Server)
I need to publish my portal page in the web, so I install HR support packages in the ERP system and also deploy the ESS component. I install a standalone ITS system on a separate machine and integrate the same with the ERP system. Now the HR-ESS component is distributed over the web through the ITS. SAP transactions are displayed over the web and the ESS component is used through a web browser.
Scenario 2: Using ITS and a Portal System
I implement the HR support packages in the ERP system, install and configure the ITS, implement a three system portal landscape (NW 04 EP 6.0 SR1) Publish the portal page over the web and enhance the ESS application through the same. Here the ERP system acts as the backend for the portal system.
I also have a doubt regarding the same. As SAP ERP R3 4.7 does not have an inbuilt ITS, is it necessary for me to install and configure a standalone ITS for the interconnectivity between the ERP and the Portal systems?
Kindly help me with the suggestions.
Thank you

Vineeth Damodarhello, the LM3S8962 microcontroller is a good sispositivos for developing applications of medium complexity, according to your questions:
1. if you work applications with embedded systems will save labview time in prototyping, we know that if you work with a company specific microcontroller, you must learn the language with which you are working Asm, Basic, C, then if you change hardware again start adapting your code in the libraries of the new compiler. Labview does not happen.
2. Labview only works with some microcontroller manufacturers and specific models.

Hi,
Am using default pagination with in the table for portlet application using Jdev(11.1.1.7.0),when I run portlet application it is working properly.
When I run the same portlet application with in webcenter portal framework application, I could not find page number navigation and count of total number of records.
Thanks,
Santoshi.Thanks a lot,Its working fine when I moved adfp into Panel Group Layout and one more important point is am using "default globe page template" which comes with webcenter framework application with content facetRef in Panel Group Layout which uses some inline style so changed its styleClass to "AFStrechWidth".

I've got a portlet with an edit JSP that allows the user to set some portlet settings. The edit JSP uses a form defined with the tag <portlet:form event="bea.portal.framework.internal.refresh" >. This in essence allowed the edit JSP to submit the form to itself, so it could then process (store) the settings.
This tag is no longer supported in 8.1. I haven't been able to find what the equivalent is. Am I going to be able to do the same thing, or am I going to have to rewrite the Edit piece as a page flow?I've already tried that and it's not working in my current portal.
The other things I've tried are <render:postBackUrl/> and <render:windowUrl> for the form action, and they weren't working, either. But since then I've discovered that in a new vanilla portal installation, the <render:postBackUrl/> action works fine (I assume the controller would, too, but I didn't try it).
It seems I now have a different problem to work through to figure out why <render:postBackUrl/> works in a new installation, but not in my current one. The same goes for the controller. -
Dont want then NavigationTarget to open an entirely new portal framework
Hi All,
when i tried with Navigationtarget from webdynpro Linktourl element(target=_main) to open the page which has webdynpro iview opening the page but its coming with whole new portal framework which i dont want . how to avoid that.I just want the page to display in the content area without the whole portal framework with tabs and
String URL1="/irj/index.html?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/org.test.dev.folder.test_development/test/Worksets/CustomApplications/ManagersFMLAApproval";
wdContext.currentContextElement().setUrl1(URL1);
Thanks,
pkvHi Pkv,
If you want to open the new window without the portal framework page then instead of using a LinktoURL UI Element you use a LinktoAction UI element and in the action handler of the LinktoAction you can use the navigateAbsolute portal API. [http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/navigation/api/WDPortalNavigation.html]
The code should look like this.
WDPortalNavigation.
navigateAbsolute("ROLES://portal_content/org.test.dev.folder.test_development/test/Worksets/CustomApplications/ManagersFMLAApproval",
WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_EXTERNAL,
WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_HISTORY,
null);

It is very errartic, sometimes the page gets loaded and at times I get this error. Could someone please tell me what causes this error?
Thanks
SwethaHi,
This error occurred in the page where I used the file upload control. The control was working fine before. We tried installing entire PDK again and then applying the hotfix-1, but nothing worked and then I had to use an URL iview to invoke an ASP .Net application just for uploading the files.
Thanks

Calling portal framework page from non portal page
Hi,
We are having some difficulty in passing control from the non portal pages to
the Portal Pages.
To explain you more elaborately, I am writing down the scenario:
Both our portal and non portal pages reside under the same web application folder.
We have a Portal Page containing one portlet.Clicking on one of the hyperlink
on this portlet page takes us out of the portal environment where we are doing
some processing.
(Why we are going out of the portal environment is because we want to call the
existing pages as it is and our intention is not to make the existing pages portal
enabled to start with).
Somewhere down the journey on the non portal page, there is a requirement to call
the Portal Framework page.
We can call the portal Framework page from the non portal page by hard coding
the URL of the Portal page by writing something like this in href:
http://localhost:7501/application?origin=content.jsp&event=bea.portal.framework.internal.portlet.event&pageid=home&portletid=bachome_carsearchlink&wfevent=link.next
But this is not what we want. We want to call the portal page without hard coding
the URL.
If we use portlet tag in non portal page to call the Portal Framework page ( <a
href="<portlet:createWebflowURL event="link.next"/>">Next Page</a>), it throws
us error "Could not find current Portlet State" which is quite understandable,
because portlet state is now lost.
Is there any way we can achieve this .
Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks
AjayHi
i think you should use portal:createPortalPageChangeURL (you are effectively changing
your portal page) .
if you want to invoke a specific event in your portlet webflow you can either
write a RefreshControllerIP or use WebflowJSPHelper.createWebflowURL.
bear in mind if you have urls that directly go to an intermediate event in the
portlets webflow you may need

Portal framework when using bookmarks
Hi
When we use bookmarks to run reports, the portal framework does not show (the portal menu). It is only the BI template that is shown just like when you run a template from WAD. Is it possible to direct the user to the report with the portal framework around the WAD template when using bookmarks?
ErikHi,
I do not want to create confusion but PFCG would not be helpful. If users want to run the report for different variables and different drilldowns. It would not be possible to keep record of their each bookmark and adding it to the Role.
Ravi: I did understand what your solution but How to do it is not clear to me.
they can save the bookmark of report in portal
Could you please elaborate on this one if you know how to do it. Per my understanding the Bookmark is saved in terms of Web template id.

Forcing attachments to download from content outside portal framework
We are having an issue with binary content which resides outside portal framework in a separate system being downloaded by users. Whenever a page flow action is submitted and the binary data(xls, pdf, doc files etc) is returned by the system(documentum in this case) and we try to get the download option it shows data as garbage on the jsp but does not prompt to download the file. Here is the code for 2 options tried
Option 1 - Trying to write binary content from Page Flow
Code in Page Flow
byte[] binaryData = document.getBinaryDocument(); //'document' is the data object here
HttpServletResponse response = getResponse();
response.setContentType("application/ms-excel");
response.setContentLength(binaryData.length);
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + document.getFileName() + ".xls\""); //document does not return file extension
response.getOutputStream().write(binaryData);Option 2 - Trying to write binary content from Servlet Context outside portal framework
Code in Page Flow
getRequest().setAttribute("binarydoc", document); Code in JSP
com.jeni.DocumentumData doc = (com.jeni.DocumentumData)request.getAttribute("binarydoc");
byte[] binaryData = doc.getBinaryDocument();
response.setContentType("application/ms-excel");
response.setContentLength(binaryData.length);
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + doc.getFileName() + ".xls\""); //document does not return file extension
response.getOutputStream().write(binaryData);
response.getOutputStream().flush();Both options produce garbage on the jsp page.
Please respond soon
ThanksYes. It did not work here's the changed code in the JSP page in Option 2 that produced the same result.
com.jeni.DocumentumData doc = (com.jeni.DocumentumData)request.getAttribute("binarydoc");
byte[] binaryData = doc.getBinaryDocument();
response.reset();
response.setContentType("application/ms-excel");
response.setContentLength(binaryData.length);
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + doc.getFileName() + ".xls\""); //document does not return file extension
response.getOutputStream().write(binaryData);
response.getOutputStream().flush();
response.flushBuffer(); -
Hello all,
the standard Portal Framework scrollbars do not include the entire page, but deals with the frames (innerpage and navigation) separately. Now i would like to get a framework page done similar to the current SDN one, where you have just one main vertical scrollbar.
I have figured if you change the isolationmode of various pages (e.g. innerpage) from url to embedded, you get rid of the iframe and the page gets embedded into the entire page. This results in one main vertical scroolbar which does inlcude the TLN and Mastead. So far so good, but unfortunatelly the TLN then starts to show some weired behaviour. It jumps around, just when the page is loaded it jumps back to the correct position. Pretty strange.
So obviously this isnt the right approach to get done what i have in mind.
Has anyone else tried this or something similar before and has some valueable hints?
regards,
MarkusHi Markus,
I can give you a hint.
There is a par file called com.sap.portal.layouts.framework.par
This is the par file with which the Default/Light frameworks are created.
You will find in here the entire HTML in the form of Layout/Framework/Navigation tag libraries whose help you can easily get on help.sap.com
You can modify this to suit your needs.
Then upload this par file (after re naming it only !!).
Make a new Layout from PAR in the Content Administrator role.
You can then procees by assigning this layout to your page.
I've not tried this but I guess it will work. -

Launch Portal iView without Portal Framework
We would have a requirement to send emails from our ERP backend system containing a link to say, release a purchase order. However, because we use single sign-on to the ABAP systems we can't just send a link to the BSP in the ERP system because no one would know their password. So instead I thought I would send a link to an iview in the Portal as everyone knows thier Portal password and we have SSO from the Portal to the backend systems.
My question is: How do I do this and get a window without all the Portal framework around it that could be viewed on a Blackberry? I've tried a URL like "http://portal_server/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content ..." but still get a standard Portal window. Setting options for the iview like "Display in separate window" or "Display in separate, headerless Portal window" doesn't seem to come into play using this approach.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Regards,
Tom MaggsHi,
1. Instead of using role navigation url you can use the static url of page or iview...
check this. [https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1374857]
2. If you have to use navigation url then add &NavMode=3 to existing url.
http://portal_server/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content ...&NavMode=3
This will open iview in headerless window
