Portlet Repository

In the following scenario, a V1 instance is successfully upgraded to V2 but meantime the V1 instance is still the production site (and will be for some time) with content being updated, added and deleted.
Content from the upgraded V2 instance is exported to a new V2 instance to test export/import, create the new site architecture etc......
Later I'll need to update the content in my upgraded V2 instance portlet repository so that it accurately reflects the V1 production site. What steps in the upgrade process would I need to perform to upgrade only the content in the portlet repository again ?

The repository upgrade is an all or nothing exercise run in place over the portal repository. So you have two options.
1. Upgrade the real production repository.
2. Reload the new content into the new v2 system. Features such was WebDAV or uploading zip files could be used to ease this partial content migration. Portal export/import will not help out here as the two portals would need to be at the same version.

  • How to delete translation of portlet repository

    We are using Oracle Portal 10.1.4. with two languages (English and Czech). We have a problem with portlets. If we use only one language in the page group we have both language versions of portlets there (depending on the language environment of the editor).
    I guess this problem exists because we have translations enabled in the Portlet Repository page group. I tried to "switch off" this translation (so we would have only "English" version of portlets) but it seems impossible: there is no "red cross" to delete the translation in the portlet repository.
    Is there any way how to solve this?

    Hi Sudeep,
    Select particular software component and In right side of window, select software component in menu and select delete option.

  • How make Report applications visible in Portlet Repository ?

    Hello,
    I'm using Portal 9.0.2 and I4m having problems to put report applications in pages.
    I did one report from portal and another one from report builder.
    Both I run inside the portal db provider using "Run as Portlet" option
    and it worked, but when I edit a page and try to put these reports
    like portlet, the "Portlet Repository" doesn't show the reports, just the forms from this
    database provider. I already did the "Refresh" ... and the "Publish to Portal"
    option in "Manage" tab of my report aplication is checked.
    Even the reports that came with Portal, for exemple, in the PEOPLE_APP database provider
    has some reports, neither these are showed in "Portlet Repository".
    If somebody could help me I'll appreciate !
    Best regards,
    Renato B. Miranda

    Hello Balakrishnan and Sharmila,
    First of all I want to say thank you for trying to help me.
    Sharmila, I did exactly what you suggest but it still doesn4t working, I can4t see
    the reports in my portlet repository ... I saw many question as mine in this forum
    but all of then aren't completely solved. (After I click "OK" in customization form display
    options tab, I remembered to do the "Refresh Portlet Repository").
    Balakrishnan, I did what you suggest too, the copy was fine, the roport was copy
    from one provider to another, but even doing this the report doesn't appear
    in the new provider on the portlet repository(I remembered to do the "Refresh Portlet Repository").
    Note that my reports are already working inside portal (using "Run as Portlet")
    in the "Develop" tab of my component ...
    and just the reports I couldn't see, the forms that I did are there in the portlet repository !
    Even the reports that came with the portal providers, like the ones in PEOPLE_APP provider
    from PORTAL_DEMO owner doesn't appear in my portlet repository.
    So .... if you have more suggests I4ll appreciate a lot !
    Best regards,
    Renato

  • Portlet repository-- Seeded providers does not show Portal Content area

    Hi,
    When I login to portal as admin user go to administration --> Display portlet repository--> Seeded providers does not show Portal Content area.I tried to search but no results shown.
    Any idea as to how to get it back ?
    Thanks and regards.
    Neeti.

    1. From the Portal Object Navigator, click on the Applications
    tab.
    2. In the "Find" box, type %search% and click "Go"
    3. There are 2 reports you need to modify, depending on which
    portlet provider you want to use: RPT_SEARCH (owned by
    people_app) and SEARCH_RESULT (owned by wwv_system)
    4. For each report, click the "Edit" link
    5. Click the "Display Options" tab
    6. Under the "Full Page Options" heading, change the "Size"
    for "Row Text" to 12. (If you are running the reports as
    portlets, then you must also change the "Size" for "Row Text"
    under "Portlet Options".)
    7. Click OK
    Search results are now visble using either portlet, the Oracle
    Portal provider or the PEOPLE_APP provider.
    You may also need to change the field settings on the hierarchy
    if now when you run the people search you receive SQL errors.
    Here is what worked for me (assuming you want to change both
    users components):
    1. On the Application Tab search for %search% and %detail%
    components. You don't need to change the WWMON components.
    Change the font size on the full page and portlet options
    (Display Options Tab)for the heading and text (I use 12 and
    11pt). Otherwise the default can only be read with a magnifying
    glass.
    2. The org chart components are slightly different. Search for %
    org% and you will find 2 components org_chart and orgchart. Both
    of these need to have the column fields changed (Table or View
    Column tab) as well as the font size for the Parent, Child,
    Grandchild (Display Options Tab). Here are the Table Column
    settings (for some reason they are initially blank - yet will
    fail if recompiled without values):
    People_App.Org_chart
    1. key values:
    primary key - empno
    parent key - manager
    start with - empno
    ww_system.orgchart
    1. Primary Key Column WWSEC_PUBLIC_DIRECTORY.ID
    Parent Key Column WWSEC_PUBLIC_DIRECTORY.MANAGER
    Start With Column WWSEC_PUBLIC_DIRECTORY.ID
    Hope this helps. The second half of the answer provided by Rich

  • New portlets not showing up in portlet repository

    I have created a couple URL based portlets and registered the provider with my portal. When I go to the portlet repository to add the new portlets to a page, they do not show up. If I go the Providers Tab on the Portal Navigator Page, I can see them.
    I suspect this has something to do with my coworker trying to get the Web Cache working though he can't tell me why my portlets aren't showing up.
    Any one have any ideas?

    Web Cache shouldn't impact this (but I'm not saying that it isn't ;-)
    Try the following:
    1) refresh the portlet repository by clicking the "refresh" button in the provider registration page
    2) check the security settings on the portlets - portlets will not be displayed if either the portal security (applied via the portlet repository) or portlet security (applied by adding a SecurityManager to a portlet) denies access

  • 3.0.9 Portlet Repository Question

    We recently upgraded from 3.0.6.7.2 for NT to the 3.0.9 version for NT. When this happened the portlet respository was also upgraded. All of my old portlets show up at the top level of the portlet repository, but all my new portlets show up in a provider subfolder under "Other Providers". Is there a way to make my new portlets show up at the top level in the portlet repository instead of two levels down? I have been moving them for now, but this is a tedious and inefficient process. Any thoughts?
    Thanks,

  • Display Portlet Repository Problem - Page cannot be found

    hi,
    Just upgraded to 3.0.9.
    when i go to Portal Homepage ..... Adminster..... Display Portlet Repository, and then select an item, i get the following error msg on my browser:

    Hi
    The way I fix this problem was to Edit the portal provider and then click on Refresh Provider. The next time you go into Display Portlet Repository the item should be OK.
    The refresh remote provider information - seems not to work.
    Hope this helps

  • Portlet Repository access control

    Hello,
    How do I selectively set access control for portlet repository?
    Basically, I don't want users to add "Administration Portlets", "Portlet Builders", etc. I only want users to see "Portlet Staging Area". I tried "Specify Permissions" on the page, but somehow it is not working.
    I am using Oracle portal version 10.1.4
    Thanks,
    -Dong Chen

    Hi Dong Chen,
    Yes, it works perfectly here !
    Let's compare notes.....
    0. I clicked on "Clear Cache" under "Cache Invalidation".
    1. I clicked on the "Acess" tab for the "Administration Portlets" Page.
    2. I clicked on " Specify Access Settings" under "Access Settings".
    3. I clicked on "Enable Item Level Security" under "Access Properties".
    4. I clicked on the "Browse Groups" LOV and selected "PORTAL_ADMINISTRATORS".
    5. I selected the "manage" privilige from the "Privilige" LOV.
    6. I Clicked on "OK".
    7. Now, I logged out & logged in as one of the Authenticated Users, who does not belong to the PORTAL_ADMINISTRATORS Group. I do not see the Administration Portlets anymore.
    Now, as far as the AUTHENTICATED_USERS are concerned, the Administration Portlets don't exists ! :)

  • Portlet Repository Not Showing Up

    7 I have somehow lost the ability to see my Portlet Repository. I was
    experimenting with permissions on the portlets (I didnt think a public
    user
    (normal user) should be able to add any of the Oracle-provided portlets
    to
    their page, and was trying to hide them from all users except the
    portal_admin
    users.), and I can no longer see any portlets as user portal30.
    Actually,
    the portlet repository looks empty.
    7 When I try to add a new portlet to an existing page (region), I see
    the
    view by: category/provider option, but everything underneath it is
    blank.
    7 I still see the existing (customized/used) portlets on the right side
    of the
    window, and they seem to be working properly.
    7 When I try to access the Portlet Repository from the Administer
    display
    (Display Portlet Repository), I get a completely blank page. No links
    (to
    refresh, etc.) are even shown at the top.
    7 Im wondering if there is a database table I can look at and change
    the
    permissions on so that I see the portlets again. (Or, Maybe its not
    that
    simple) I dont believe that I have deleted anything, so I think its
    just a
    visibility problem.
    7 ANY IDEAS?

    Web Cache shouldn't impact this (but I'm not saying that it isn't ;-)
    Try the following:
    1) refresh the portlet repository by clicking the "refresh" button in the provider registration page
    2) check the security settings on the portlets - portlets will not be displayed if either the portal security (applied via the portlet repository) or portlet security (applied by adding a SecurityManager to a portlet) denies access

  • Portlet Repository Refresh

    Hi,
    I have some problem with the Portlet Repository for my Web
    provider.
    After an update of my Provider XML (Added, or Deleted a
    portlet), or after the delete of a provider my portlet
    repository is <u>never refreshed</u>.
    When I try to make a manualy refresh of the repository, the
    server never respond.. (or time out)

    Roland, try backing out whatever changes you made so that you had to refresh the provider, and then refresh it again.
    Cheers,
    Mick

  • Refreshing Portlet repository

    I am using version 3.0.9.8.4 of the Portal.
    I need to refresh the portlet repository or a particular provider programatically at frequent intervals.
    I do this using the folllowing code :
    -- However I notice although I see the refresh completed successfully message ON EXECUTION of procedure it does not have same effect as refresh through the Portal UI ?
    Am I supposed to use anything else or modify anything ?
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE XXC_REFRESH_REPOSITORY
    AS
    BEGIN
    portal30.wwctx_api_private.set_context('portal30','');
    portal30.wwpro_api_provider_registry.refresh_portlet_repository;
    commit;
    portal30.wwctx_api_private.clear_context;
    dbms_output.put_line('Refresh completed sucessfully ');
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.PUT_LINE(SQLERRM);
    portal30.wwctx_api_private.clear_context;
    END;

    i've had problems thru the gui too using JPDK. so what i end up doing is recreating a new portlet provider. for some reason when i make changes to provider.xml, i don't think portal is smart enough to pick up the changes if the sequence of portlets or parameters declared in it when first created changes, it craps out.
    i find it easier just to create a new declaration of the portlet provider.
    i wish oracle would fix this

  • Fyi - refreshing the portlet repository programmatically

    You can refresh the portlet repository as follows:
    begin
    -- set portal context
    wwctx_api_private.set_context(
    p_user_name=>wwctx_api.get_product_schema);
    -- refresh portlet repository
    wwsbr_portlet_folder.refresh_data(
    1,wwsbr_site_db.portlet_siteid);
    end;
    null

    I'm having a problem using this code fragment from SQL*Plus. Is there additional code that I need to add before making these calls to set up a suitable environment?
    When I use this piece of code, all of my bespoke providers vanish from the portlet repository. The standard portal and demo providers remain. Pressing the Refresh button brings all my providers back again.
    I'd like to be able to use this piece of code to automoatically refresh the folder list during my product install, after using the SQL APIs to define the provider.
    Thanks,
    Nigel.

  • SampleWebProvider not in the portlets repository

    Hi.
    I installed jpdk , I can see the test page , with the list of sample portlets , but when I login to Portal , I cannot see the sample web portlets into the portlets repository :(
    Some ideas ??
    Thx a lot.
    Max

    Hi,
    I presume that you have added the provider to portal. You might not be seeing the newly added provider in the repository in the view mode, but if you select the
    edit mode for repository, you will see the provider there.
    This does happen if the repository doesnt get refreshed, so you could just refresh the provider, you should get the provider in the repository.
    btw what version of portal & jpdk are you using?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Abhinav
