Portlet could not be contacted error in content area

hi everybody,
i've developed an application using Portal Content Area.And i am
accessing the content Area
like "http://<servername>/pls/portal30/url/folder/<Content area
name>".
But when i access it shows "Error : Portlet could not be
Contacted".then when i press refresh it opens the content Area.
Now i badly in need of avoiding that portlet error and directly
go to content area.
Pl. help me.
thanks in advance
regards,
Kathir

I strongly recommend upgrading to the 3.0.9 release (iAS
1.0.2.2) with the 3.0.9.8.2 patch (this patch should be
available for NT/2000 this week). Also, the database should be
running 8.1.7.1 (or later), as explained in the iAS release
notes.

  • The Favorite Content Portlet could not be populated.Error Message

    Hi all,
    I am new in PORTAL, I made an Instant portlet which was working fine. But then started an error occuring when I view the Portal Page: "The Favorite Content Portlet could not be populated.Error Message." This error is show in a dialog box when ever I view page or navigate to other tabs(subpages) of portal.
    When I diagnose I got that this error is in "Main Navigator". If I delete the Main Navigator from Portal this error does not occur. But without Navigator subpages(tabs) cannot be visible.
    This is the case when I make new INSTANT PORTAL. Please Help urgent!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks,

  • Pls/portal shows: Error: The portlet could not be contacted  after SSL enab

    The OCS /pls/portal page shows: Error: The portlet could not be contacted, I believe this happened after SSL enabling the system. Anyone out there seen this errof before?

    FYI
    This happens if you remove port 80 as a listening port webcache/em, etc. Oracle claims it needs port 80 for internal communication. For whatever reason the /pls/portal providers are registered in non-SSL. Not sure if Oracle will provide a fix or ?

  • Error : Portlet could not be contacted ?

    Hi ,
    Working on Portal 9.0.2.3 , integrated an java application as Portlet to the tab by registering as new portlet provider .
    It went on fine till now , recently when i click that particular tab i get this error
    ERROR : PORTLET COULD NOT BE CONTACTED .
    I tried to refresh the page manualy but still the error exisits.
    kindly let me know how to debug this.

    Mats,
    I found this seems to happen if you are using the fully resolved url to access a page rather than unresolved url.
    Unresolved URL:
    http://socsbo1.scs.uiuc.edu/pls/portal30/url/page/socsbo_main
    Resolved URL:
    http://socsbo1.scs.uiuc.edu/servlet/page?_pageid=53&_dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30&_mode=3
    Why it does this I don't know, but once I made sure the users where using the unresolved URL to access the page the portlet errors went away.
    Portal Version: 3.0.7.6.2
    Maybe this is happening to you?

  • Cannot access page groups via Navigator "portlet could not be contacted"

    On the Portal Navigator's Page Groups tab, the error "The portlet could not be contacted." appears where the list of Page Groups should be.

    What is confusing is how 1 browser gets the error but another does not.
    Any suggestions?
    TIA

    This issue seems to be related to the specific URL used to access the Navigator. I was using a specific URL to display a particular page region for editing, namely
    /portal/page?_pageid=6,3,6_23&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&p_otype=FOLDER&p_octx=FOLDER.334478_1453&p_domain=wwc&p_sub_domain=SITEEXP
    Once the Navigator is accessed via this URL, all subsequent attempts to access Page Groups Navigator portlet fail.
    I changed my process to not use the URL above.

  • "The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    Dear Lawrence Finch: 
    If you're still around I hope you see this message, as you're the FIRST person (after reading every link, thread, other sites, apple support articles, etc.) to mention JB may be causing this iTunes popup window to REPEATEDLY occur:
    "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted."
    No, I did not hack anything (are you kidding?  Grannies don't hack!), but I unknowingly bought a 3Gs iOS 3.1 from ebay that was not advertised as JB.  Since it is like brand new, I was going to keep it (because my old backup is iOS 3.1.2) & was trying to simply restore & update, which (I thought) would remove the JB (that's what everybody says at forums, etc).
    Instead, after "erasing all settings/content" (inside phone's Settings to get the prior person's name out of there), it is now stuck in White Apple Mode.
    Put it in DFU/Recovery Mode & connect to iTunes but that stupid above message keeps appearing & I have already read/tried EVERYTHING to get rid of that message, starting with: 
    1.  OLD phones (3Gs) with OLD iOS 3.1+ should work FINE with OLD Mac (iBook) with OLD OSX (Tiger 10.4.11) with OLD iTunes (9.2.1[5]).  So that can't be the problem.
    Here's all the other things apple & others say to check which I already checked:
    2.  USB ports are FINE, both work FINE, so that's not the problem.
    3.  No "extra USB devices" are connected, ONLY a mouse, & then the phone (yes, I tried it w/o the mouse connected but that didn't help).
    4.  No "usb hubs."
    5.  Latest iTunes for this OSX has already been DL'd (iTunes 9.2.1[5]).  If you know of a newer one for this OSX, please advise.
    6.  No antivirus software.
    7.  No security software.
    8.  No routers; only 1 comcast modem, period.  Wired Ethernet.
    9.  No wifi gadgets, no wifi at all.
    10.  No firewalls, except what is on iBook in the SHARING/System-Prefs. section.  It's turned OFF.
    11.  Did the hosts/terminal thing sudo nano whatever it was.  There were only 3 lines, NO gs.apple.com:
    xxxxx local host
    xxxxx broadcast host
    xxxx local host
    Oh, & btw, ATT officially unlocked this phone (after I filled out their online forms) but I can't finish the process via iTunes to get their Confirmation that "Device is Now Unlocked," so I can use T-Mo.
    So that's it.  If you have any other ideas of what to do from here, since from your comment, maybe it's the stupid JB on this phone that is causing the problem (???), please advise.
    Many thanks!

  • Patch 2744619 causes portlet could not be contacted

    Hello,
    Any anyone installed the Portlet patch 2744619 in an HTTPS configuration?
    The patch successfully installs, no errors in the install log or portal.log. But when I log into Portal, ALL
    Portlets have this error message:
    The Portlet Could Not Be Contacted.
    I don't receive this error message when applying the patch to a non-SSL installation.
    Thanks,
    - Carl

    Found out to apply the patch to an SSL enabled environment you first must disable SSL, apply the patch and then enable SSL.
    If you are running UNIX be sure to set PTLASST.CSH to execute privs. During the upgrade, this file is missing execute priv so when configuring SSL, it will fail.

    This is a synchronous problem between dcm proccesses.
    You can solve it by installing 2591631 patch.
    Also You should install 9.0.2.1 CorePatch before 2591631 patch.
    And i want to tell that I think it isnt relevant about your problem "Portlet could not be contacted".
    Good luck.

    Increase  Client timeout, and it is set in the Application class in the Client Project

  • The portlet could not be contacted and other time-out errors: the cause!

    Did you encounter these kind of errors? Even after upgrading to
    version 3.0.9.8.1?
    We have searched for many months for the cause of these problems
    and finally found it. It's the user SYS ! When you analyze SYS's
    objects (tables and indexes), Portal gets totally confused.
    Especially after rebooting a server, retrieving the first page
    can take five minutes or even more.
    We have removed all statistics from SYS and the responstimes
    have been increased dramatically. From minutes to just a few
    seconds!
    So, if you want to experience these problems, just analyze user
    SYS. And if you want to get rid of these problems, drop SYS's
    statistics.

    hi,
    Have a look at this discussion. It is the same problem what you face, provided your portal version is also 3.0.9.

  • Error: Portlet could nog be contacted when adding URL portlet

    Perhaps I'll get an answer this time... I refuse to write URGENT all over the title too...
    I've done the following:
    1. Create a Content Area.
    2. Edit the page that corresponds to this Content Area
    3. Add an item (URL)
    4. Set the Display options (tab 3 in the wizard) to 'Item Displayed Directly In Folder Area'
    5. Press Finish
    6. Voila - some 1-2 minutes pass, and then a page saying 'Error: The portlet could not be contacted'
    If I set the display options to the first or the second choice in step 4, everything works as it should. Is there a known bug or am I having Murphy for lunch?
    The database is an 8.1.7.0.0EE on Solaris 8, the portal is a 3.0.9 on a 9iAS 1.0.2.2. I've tried the patch for Timeout for Content, and I've tried increasing the servlet.page.initArgs=requesttime to 45 or 60, but to no avail.

    Hey!!! what happened????. I sent a message and it disappeared!!!!!. OTN isn't working!!!
    well!!!
    I realized that my Oracle DB spends a lot of time in sqls like this(8000 records each time):
    SELECT *
    FROM portalWWNLS_STRINGS$
    STR1,WWNLS_STRINGS$ STR2
    WHERE STR1.ID = :b1
    AND STR2.DOMAIN (+) = STR1.DOMAIN
    AND STR2.SUB_DOMAIN (+) = STR1.SUB_DOMAIN
    AND STR2.NAME (+) = STR1.NAME
    AND STR2.LANGUAGE (+) = LOWER(:b2)
    Just create Indexes(PORTAL30 and PORTAL30_SSO schemas) to optimize this query and your Oracle Portal will fly!!!!!
