Portal language from URL

Hi,
Is it possible to force the portal to be displayed in a specific language based on an attribute passed by URL? We are on NW04S SP 10.
Is there any other way to force the portal to be displayed in a specific language other than the browser setting or the user profile?
Thanks!
Renaud

Hi Renaud
Not really. You could have multiple anonymous users, each with their own language, and start the portal passing the specific username as ?guest_user=xxx.
For regular users, I suppose you could change their language dynamically at logon time by some sort of portal component in the masthead, but it would be messy.
I'm not sure I understand why a regular user would want to use a different language...
Cheers

Language of Webdynpro after changing the Portal Language

Hi All,
Even after changing the portal language from for ex. English to French, the webdynpro is still displayed in English language.
If this session (portal window) is closed and new portal session is started, then the webdynpro is displayed in French.
Also please note that, for iviews built using Portal HTMLB (like JspDynPages), restarting the session is not necessary.
Any answer/solution/pointers/SAP Notes supplied is greatly appreciated.

Rajit

Hi,
Refer to SAP Note 947081 about Internationalization
The Blog at /people/bertram.ganz/blog/2007/01/08/the-top-12-hottest-sap-notes-every-web-dynpro-java-developer-must-know talks about this Note.
3rd point mentions about "Language change in the portal (through portal personalization) does not get immediately reflected in the Web Dynpro iViews?"
Hope this solves your query.

How to set selected Language from Portal dropdown in Logon to User profile

Hi Gurus,
I select a language in Portal Language dropdown in the Logon Page.
After login in the content is getting displayed in the browser language.
I want the portal content to be displayed in the selected language in the portal LogonPage.
I checked the thread Logon page change to add a dropdown for language
The is the requirement for me too .
Kindly suggest me on how to set the language in the Portal user Profile so that the portal contents gets displayed in the selected languages from the dropdown .
Thanks in Advance

Hi Prasanna,
The language that the portal is displayed in depends on the following
heirarchy, with the languages at the top of the list taking precedence
over those at the bottom:
1. Component (iview) language (defined in the portalapp.xml)
2. Portal Mandatory language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
3. User language (defined in the user#s profile).
4. Request language (defined by the browser).
5. Portal Default language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
6. System Default language (default locale defined by the OS).
So for example, if you have your portal user language (as in point 3)
set to Russian, but the language of the iView that is the logon page
(as in point 1) set to English, that logon page will be displayed in
English.
Keeping the above in mind, please make the necessary changes to the
configurations and check if it helps.
Regards,
Sowmya

Losing portal context when URL is submitted from flash/flex portlet

Hi, I am losing portal context when URL is submitted from action scripting in Flash/Flex portlet. I have selected the remote webservice portlet to use inline refresh. The jsp page is opening up in complete browser window instead of showing in portlet section.
below is the code snippet i am using.
<mm:mxml>
     <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="400" height="200">
     <mx:Script><![CDATA[
     public function submitToBrowser():void {
     var url:String = "formsubmit.jsp";
     var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
     var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
     variables.name = fName.text;
     u.data = variables;
     u.url = url;
     u.method = "POST";
     navigateToURL(u,"_self");
     ]]></mx:Script>
          <mx:Form id="myForm" defaultButton="{mySubmitButton}">
          <mx:FormItem label="User Name">
          <mx:TextInput id="fName" name="fName"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          <mx:FormItem label="Password">
          <mx:TextInput id="password" displayAsPassword="true"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          <mx:FormItem>
          <mx:Button label="Submit" id="mySubmitButton"
          click="submitToBrowser();"/>
          </mx:FormItem>
          </mx:Form>
     </mx:Application>
</mm:mxml>

inline refresh modifies javascript, not flex. Maybe try an iframe?

Language specific urls in EP6

Hi all,
i was trying to implement language specific URL iview using the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/44/aabd5c7e8e0a47e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
however this link is for EP7.
Can anybody tell how can I implement the same in EP6.

Hi Juhi,
   Alternate is..   Check the SAP NOTE- 961793. Which says...
Symptom
Adding Language-Specific URLs
Other terms
EP6.0, NW04, SP18, URL iView, Language-Specific
Reason and Prerequisites
URL iView new feature: Adding Language-Specific URLs
Solution
As from NW04 SP18, URL iView presents a new feature: Language-Specific URLs. The new feature enables you to define more than one source URL for any URL iView. Apart from the default URL, which is not language-specific, you can define any number of additional URLs; each one corresponding to a different language. If a portal user's language matches a language defined in the iView, then the corresponding language-specific URL will be executed at runtime. If a portal user's language does not matches a language defined in the iView, then the default URL will be executed.

Issue in redirecting to portal page from SSO login page

HI facing issue while redirecting to portal application from SSO login page.please find below basic details
the application comprises of TAM / Apache / Weblogic, and all the request goes in the same order.
When the application is deployed as portlet, the jsp page some how hard codes the apache host name, that in turn blocks any form submit or Ajax action.
so on successful login the redirection is not happening to required portal page as it includes apache host name in the url consrtucted.
Please suggest me what are the configurations that I need to verify .
Thanks in Advance

If you upgrade to v7.1 you will have all those features and more - PLUS a lot of defective pieces have been fixed in 7.1

How to set up reverse proxy to allow user access portal site from internet

Hi all,
I have installed 10g(10.1.2.0.2) AS on same machine(single IP for both mid and infra with different users respectively). there is a DMZ on which windows IIS is working through which we need to redirect the request to application server such that users access portal page from internet (within intranet all URLs are working fine). I have went through technet documentation where i found 3 ways : through this link
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13998/variants.htm
Section 9.2.1.1, "Configuring OracleAS Web Cache as a Reverse Proxy"
Section 9.2.1.2, "Configuring the Oracle HTTP Server as a Reverse Proxy"
Section 9.2.1.3, "Configuring Internet Information Services as a Reverse Proxy"
I am confused to which option to use. Also i went through the metalink document 270160.1
Please help me which option to choose to do this.
Thanks.

Hi Hozy,
May be it's too late, I am thinking to go in the same route for our sap portal access to external customers. Please can you share your experience , like what are the challenges have you faced? what is the complexity? what are all the resources we need to configure this?
I appreciate your feedback.

Failed to read wsdl file from url

Hi all,
I am struggling with WL 9.2, consuming a WSRP enabled portlet at the following point:
Having created a proxy portlet, refering to the WSDL of the WSRP producer, I did successfully deploy the portal. When accessing the portal and consuming the portlet the following exception is thrown:
com.bea.wsrp.faults.TransportException: Failed to read wsdl file from url due to -- java.net.ConnectException: Tried all: '8' addresses, but could not connect over HTTP to server: 'www.w3.org', port: '80';
The WSDL includes a schema (http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema). The URL is definetely accessible by the server.
I am open for any kind of support ;) Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Matthias

Yes, they are all local schemas. The way ALSB works, even if the import path in the wsdl or parent schema doesn't exist, relative to the current directory, you can specify which schema resolves that reference. My WSDL imports several schemas, all of which import others. When I was done importing all the schemas and resolving references, all the references in WSDLs and XSDs were assigned and valid. However, after all of those imports and reference resolution, it still says the WSDL is invalid, with the following odd error message:
The WSDL is not semantically valid: Failed to read wsdl file from url due to -- java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: /XMLSchema/PaymentServices/Resources/PaymentServices-200802.
That path listed refers to one of the schemas imported by the WSDL. The reference to that schema in the WSDL was resolved, and it doesn't complain about that reference.

IE8 portal login with URL

HI,
We have a login problem with IE and portal 7.0.
When we open login window in IE with IP address,

all works and is OK, but with URL by name as
http://bitest.you.com:50100/irj/portal
we got an yellow '! ' mark in left corner of the IE and after username/password nothing happens - on error message, just the same login window. When you insert wrong password, error message is displayed.
Doubble click on yello '!' mark shows message:

Regards,

Hi,
SAP Support solves this problem and their answer is:
Please note that the issue is not related to Enterprise Portal but
caused by Internet Explorer.
The issue is with the number of dots in the url (<host>.xxx.xx works
perfectly well), but only with urls with the
specific format, where the domain and sub-domain have two characters (
<host>.xx.xx does't work) in your case 'eklsapbitest.yo.ee'.
Internet Explorer does not allow cookies to be set for such a domain -
it treats it as a top-level domain. Microsoft has acknowledged that thisis a problem in IE (cf. Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 310676:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310676).
Microsoft has also provided a fix for this issue (which involves
applying a service pack and editing the registry). In addition to this
fix, you can have the below two workarounds:
1. Redirect requests for 'eklsapbitest.yo.ee' to 'eklsapbitest.XXX.ee'.
2. Change the portal domain from 'yo.ee' to 'xxx.yo.ee'

Mart

How to trigger navigation to a portal iView from server side event handler

Hi,
I am modifying the workset map application. I have created custom URL links under each iView which should navigate to different iViews depending on some business logic. So I had to provide a custom event handler for these iVIew links and the path to the next iview is dynamically created by the code in the event handler. Once the new PCD path is generated, the event handler should trigger a navigation to that PCD object. Which APIs can I use to trigger this navigation from the server side event handler? I have done this before in webdynpro where we used WDPortalNavigation (.absoluteNavigation or .relativeNavigation). Is there something similar that i can use in this case (i.e. when developing a simple Portal Application from an AbstractPortalComponent)?

Hi,
On my understanding of your requirement.
the best solution what i think is use Object Based Navigation(OBN).
Is much suitable to your requirement.
Moreover you can use
1.Relative navigation
2.Absolute navigation.
In the same way how you used in web dynpro.
Same thing can be done in abstract portal component also.
Try using that.
Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh

Execute a portal iview from VC

Hi,
I am trying to find a way to call a portal iview from VC. Here is what I have, I have an iview created in the portal that I want to call from a VC model through a button on a form. Is this posible?
Thank you,
Aaron

You can call an portal iView from anywhere with in portal (not only with VC) using relative navigation target, but for VC you have to:
assign system action to the button as Hyperlink and provide the relative navigation target url of the iView that you want to open like:
'/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/every_user/general/eu_role/com.sap.portal.eu_ws/com.sap.portal.portal_information&NavMode=3'
NavMode can be as follows:
mode 0 for internal window,
mode 1 for external window with content,
mode 2 for external window with full navigation,
mode 3 for external headerless window
Note: "ROLES://portal_content/every_user/general/eu_role/com.sap.portal.eu_ws/com.sap.portal.portal_information" should be replaced with your iView path.
Check System Administration -> Support -> Navigation -> Navigation Types for more options on you portal.

Trikanth Basetty
