Hello,
I just started with BEA Portal version 7, and I installed the samples from BEA.
I started the Admin server, and the managed servers.
But what url do I need to use to access those examples from BEA?

Portal Console URL gives 404

Hello,
How come when I try to deploy my portal ear project from the eclipse, I'm able to access the Portal Console "http://localhost:7001/myPortalEARAdmin"
However, when I try to deploy the same ear from the WL server console and it is successfully installed and I can access the application, but the portal console url gives me "Error 404--Not Found."
I'm using weblogic 10.3.2, is there any configurations I need to do in the weblogic-application.xml?
Thanks,

Brilliant :)
The problem was that it needs the application.xml in the ear which was generated by the eclipse by default
If the project already exists, you can right-click the EAR project and select Java EE Tools > Generate Deployment Descriptor Stub.
Thanks,

Opening a URL that points to a PDF.

Helllo,
I use command start /MIN acrobat xxx.pdf and I have no problem to open a PDF. Now I want to replace xxx.pdf with a URL link that points to PDF file... So I use this command: C:\>start /MIN acrobat "https://www2.sea.accessline.com/tw2/GVXS:7a050-c2e6b-3a46560850102f-108943411" This later command opens the Acrobat window but also a dialog stating:
When I directly click on the URL that points to the PDF it opens it in the PDF window not browser which I want... Off course I have turned on some of my i.e. Internet Options. I think this has to do with security set inside of Acrobat application.
Regards
Jeff P.

What do you mean by "determined by the local preferences of the user"? This URL coming to me inside of email I receive via Outlook I am not in a Browser when I open this URL... If that is how can change the local preference to it opens in Acrobat Windows rather Browser?

Jeff P.

How to call a portal KM URL link from WAD template Link

Hi All
I am trying to call a Portal KM URL Link from the web template using the link control.
I cannot figure out whare and how to put the portal KM URL Link into the web application web link.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Karen

Add content administration role to the user.
The the content administration tab would be visible to the user in the main menu tab.
Then in content administration tab, configure the URL for KM URL tab or link.
This would be done by EP experts. Please contact your EP experts to do.
Hope this would help you.

Which URL to use to open a financial report from a Task list ?

Hi,
I've got a big issue in Hyperion Planning : I do not know which URL to use to open a financial report from a task list.
If I use the Smartcut (given when you do a right-click on the report, then Properties), a tab is opening (normal behaviour), but another tab is opening under the tab, which is very ugly, and moreover which prevent from using the PDF/HTML display icons !
Is someone know which URL to use to display correctly a financial report when opening it from a task list ?
It's an emergency, please help !
Thanks very much.
Virgile.
PS. : we use Internet Explorer 8 and we use 11.1.2.1 Hyperion Planning version

Hi,
OK, thanks, it almost works !!
I've just a problem. 2 tabs are opening.
One is opening correctly and displays my report. I can display it in PDF/HTML.
But another tab is opening with this message : This window can now be closed since the application has been launched in a separate window. Note: Popup blockers may prevent this application from working properly.
Do you know why this tab is opening ?
Thanks very much for your help.
Virgile.

Is there any way I can control which specific access point I connect (and stay connected) to from amongst a set of access points with the same SSID?

I'm working from a boat in a harbor in which the ISP has deployed numerous access points around the periphery. All the access points share the same SSID and each is configured to use either channel 1, 6 or 11. From my location, there are over a dozen of these access points "visible" (based on the the output of WiFi Scanner) with a range of RSSI and S/N values that vary over time.
The ISP has told me that the quality of my connection should be "perfectly fine" for any access point with an RSSI value better than -75, but I know from experience that my connection quality is miserable (i.e. < 50Kbps download) for almost all of these, including those with RSSI values better than -75. There is at least one exception, however, which gives me on the order of 2Mbps download, which is "great" in this context.
I've tried using a more powerful USB antenna plugged into my MacBook Air (mid 2011), but as far as I can tell, it really doesn't make much difference. Neither does my location within the boat. The overriding factor seems to be which access point I happen to connect up to.
I should point out that the closest access points are about 75 yards away, with many of them being several hundred yards away or more. I'm guessing that even though the signal strength of some of the distant access points is causing them to get "chosen" some times, the results are unacceptable due to the distance.
I'm hoping that I can determine, through experimentation, which access point(s) provide(s) acceptable performance and then configure my Mac to limit my connection to those points through whatever mechanism I need to use (e.g. channel, MAC id, etc.).

Establishing a wireless connection with a client computer is left to the access point for various reasons. One reason that your Mac may not connect to the strongest access point is that it may have reached a limit of the number of clients it can serve, leaving it unable to accept a connection with another. The limit may not be very large.
Suppose that happens, and your Mac establishes a connection with a more distant access point having a weaker signal. Then, suppose a client drops off the network. Doesn't this mean your Mac will switch to the stronger access point? Not necessarily. The throughput delivered to and from your Mac would have to drop below a threshold specified in the AP for it to drop the client, leaving your Mac free to connect with another one. The reason for this is to prevent rapid switching from one AP to another in an area in which two signals are of approximately equal quality. If that were to occur the frequent and repetitive handshaking between the two devices would slow throughput to zero.
In an environment in which several access points are broadcasting the same SSID, Apple provides no insight as to how it determines which access point to choose. This is the reason I suspect this "choice" is a function of the router, or access point. The connection originates with it, not the Mac.
Now, what would solve your dilemma would be to determine a way to control the access point with which your Mac connects, by specifying the access point's unique MAC address for example. In this happy circumstance, you could maintain an editable "whitelist" or "blacklist" of the harbor's access points and be able to choose which among them you prefer.
I do not believe OS X maintains such a record of MAC addresses though, only those of the routers it uses. If I am correct about that, such a solution is unlikely to exist. Don't let that discourage you from searching for one though... I would concentrate on something like "selecting access point by specific MAC address".
I did find this patent application though:
Roaming Network Stations Using A Mac Address Identifier To Select New Access Point
Perhaps it's a start

Which Cisco Access Point is Waterprof ? (outdoor:BR1300 + AIR-ANT24120)

hi,
My questions to the community :
i have to choose for a customer some 50 Access points but that must have an external antennas with at least 8 dbi as gain and to be waterprof
for me the BR1300 + AIR-ANT24120 is a good choice if the BR1300 is Waterproof (For me :normaly all Cisco Access Point Outdoor must be WaterProof : but i want to have a confirmation with a document if possible )
and it's interessant to knew ,which Cisco Access Point is Waterproof ?
Think you All !
Zammit Ikbel

the 1310 is going to be waterproof, as is the 15xx product line, (152x and 155x). All this can be found in the data sheet for the AP.
That being said, you can also put any of the external AP into a NEMA enclosure, and have it be waterproofed, so long as the enclosure is rated as such.
HTH,
Steve

When I close firefox, it will not allow me reopen it unless I CTRL-ALT-DLT and force it to actually close, which at this point it is using up an average of 300,000k-450,000k. also, almost none of the links I click, open. i have to open it in a new tab.

Workflow and Portal Short URLs

Hi all,
I have created a custom link for a workflow that uses a portal short URL. if I run the URL by itself, then it works fine. When I add it to the URL link in the workflow, it doesn't show up in the workflow e-mail. Something is confusing the program and changing code so the URL doesn't get added properly. I know that it works if I use say a direct link to an iView (using the URL if you were to click the Preview button when viewing the iView in the Portal Content Directory).
Anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to work? I like the anonymity of the short URLs.
Hope this makes sense,
Kevin

I can't get the short URL to work within a workflow. There is something with the combination of letters and numbers and other characters that when the link gets created, it fails.
Short URL just comes from the Portal.

How to View Smart Forms in Portal Using Url Iview?

Set Portal Page URL in Web Dynpro IFrame

Hi All,
I've a Web Dynpro application that runs in the portal.
The application creates iframes dynamically.
I want to set in the iframes portal pages.
In order to get the page's url, I go to content admin, navigate to the page and then press the 'preview' button then I copy the url from the browser's address bar.
I copy the url from the '/irj....' to the src property of the IFrame UI element.
So the source property looks something like this:
/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.mycomp.Omri!2fcom.mycomp.TestPage
When I run the project I get:
<i>Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : N/A
Component Name : N/A
Access denied (Object: portal_content/.../...).
Exception id: 06:01_17/10/06_0015_4401150
See the details for the exception ID in the log file</i>
The page's permissions are set to everyone so I don't know why do I get this error.
So, how do I set portal page url in Web Dynpro IFrame?
p.s
I tried to use NavigatinTarget in the URL and it works. The problem is that the TLN is included. I want to display only the page.
Thanks,
Omri

Hi Valery,
I have only one domain...
I searched SDN and I found this post:
/message/1259616#1259616 [original link is broken]
Daniel Wroblewski from SAP says:
<i>This, naturally, sounds like a permission issue. Two steps:
You must give the Everyone group end-user permission to the iView. This will eliminate the error and cause a login screen to display.
If you want to eliminate the login screen, you must set the iView property Authentication Scheme to anonymous.</i>
I will try it tomorrow in the Office.

DNS Name to portal (short) URL

Hi folks,
we are going to integrate some webapplications via url-iview in our portal (2004s). The applications have there own dns-name within our domain-dns-server.
After the integration, my plan is that the dns will be resolved into a portal (short)URL. In IIS i can take the hostheader for this, but how is it possible in the portal?
best regards
Frank

Hi,
ok I finally got it
You will encounter the following problem:
If you configure your alias ABC to resolve to the IP Address of your portal there is no application associated with it (/xxx) so you will always call the index.html (J2EE Startpage of your J2EE)
What you can do here is modify the index.html to redirect to a specific destination using meta http-equiv="refresh"
e.g.
meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=/irj/portal/
Since it is just HTML you cannot disinguish and you will always be redirected to this destination when accessing the startpage or just http://portalhost
Now you have several ways to solve this:
1. I think that you can define Virtual Hosts in the HTTP Provider Service (Visual Admin / HTTP Provider Service) and Application Aliases (I've never done that but it should work). This means that you define a virtual host (e.g ABC) and map it to any application e.g /myAPP1 on your J2EE
see the following doc:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/e5/ac55423948b330e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
2. You can change the Directory Index of your Engine (HTTP Provider / Properties TAB / Infer Names Property) and add something like index.jsp to the list
Default Value is:
{index.html,index.htm,default.html,default.htm}
Then you rename your index.html to something like startpage.html and put the index.jsp in the directory instead. In your JSP you will then be able to parse the Request (e.g. parse the Request URL, Headers etc. and send an appropriate redirect that fits your needs.) In all other cases you just send a redirect to startpage.html so you will still be able to see the Startpage if necessary
You have to put this jsp in the following path:
/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<InstanceNo>/j2ee/cluster/serverN/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root
Note that if you are just typing
http://ABC and ABC will be resolved to your portal IP you will have to bind your portal to port 80 in order to make this work (I would not do that because you will get into trouble when upgrading or patching) or you will have to provide the port e.g. http://ABC:50000
If you do not want to provide the port than you will have to put a Proxy (e.g. IIS on the portal host that listens on port 80 and does whatever you like (e.g. parses HTTP Header and sends redirect or whatever)
Hope this helps
Cheers

Which outdoor access points to connect two buildings (500ft distance)?

Hello,
We have a client that needs to wirelessly connect two buildings at their location, around 500ft over a parking lot. There are no significant line-of-sight obstructions. Which outdoor access points would be most suitable for this, and what is the maximum speed we can expect from such a connection?
Thanks
Tim

You can configure point-to-point wireless bridging.
Wireless Bridges Point-to-Point Link Configuration Example
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a008058f53e.shtml
Next, you can use either indoor access point or outdoor/mesh access point. I'd recommend indoor. Since it's going to be point-to-point, no need to get an AP that can support 802.11n because it's not supported. This brings your choices down to a Cisco 1242 (dual radios).
In regards to antennaes, AIR-ANT2410Y is a contender. Have a look at the complete portfolio for more information.

Determine own Portal Navigation URL within WebDynpro iView?

Hello all,
we do integrate WebDynpro-Java applications in the portal. These applications do run on the same J2EE-engine as the portal (NW04).
The WebDynpro application now should be enabled to determine its own portal URL for deep navigation to this iView. We want to hand this URL over to another (non-portal) web-application. This application will then e.g. provide a back button to allow the user a consistent way back to where he left the portal.
Is there a way to get the portal URL out of the portal context if the iview is a WebDynpro application?
Thanks a lot for your answers.
Lutz

Hi,
The referer should not contain the link of the webdynpro app, rather it should contain the url of the page that called the webdynpro app. So if you have a link at http://www.google.com which points to www.bouvet.no , the referer found in the code at www.bouvet.no will have the value www.google.com (ref http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/HTRQ_Headers.html#z14) . If this is usable in your case, depends on what urls the innerpage uses, and wheter the iview frame creates an extra redirect which ruins all data.
Another possibility would be to extend the webdynpro with an iview which first retrieves the current navigation node (you should find several post on how to do this) and then redirect to the webdynpro application with an extra url parameter which you can then retrieve from the HttpRequest in hte webdynpro application. Not 100% sure it will work, and it will create some extra maintenance and complexity.
