Project Management in stand alone environment

My customer belong to professional service(IT delivery service) industry.
And they want to manage their projects by using PPM 5.0(cProjects).
One of my customer's requirement is managing their projects in stand alone environment.
That is to say, project manager excute the project in the customer site after contracting their customer project.
But customer forbid him to set network environment as VPN because of customer's securiy policy.
Can I meet custome's requirement by using cProjects.
Could you give me any good solution.

Hi,
I believe the cProjects (PPM5.0) is the SAP solution provided for the such type of project management requirements only. You can use cProjects as standalone Project management solution, wherein you can plan, execute and monitor your projects from remote locatuons (customer site). You can use cProjects by using NWBC on HTML and / or Enterprise portal (EP). Please read for SAP Help and other SAP PPM 5.0 reference documents to get more details about how it will fit in your requirement.
Regards,
Pramod

How to manage coherence stand-alone servers

I have some qustions about the management of coherence stand alone servers:
1) Is there a command to stop in a controlled way a server? (now we kill the server process )
2) Is there a way to monitor the server execution in order to catch problems or errors
Thanks in advance

Hi Giancarlo,
1) Is there a command to stop in a controlled way a
server? (now we kill the server process )This is one way to do it. I also think you can use JMX to call CacheFactory.shutdown() (i.e. graceful) prior to killing the JVM.
2) Is there a way to monitor the server execution in
order to catch problems or errorsWhat errors are you seeing? Really you should not see any at the Cache Server level.
Take a look a the new Coherence Management Framework (JMX) included in the Coherence 3.0 pre-release.

Stand - alone project icon

Hi :)
I publish my project mostly as stand - alone windows
executable files. I'm wondering if there is a possibility to change
the icon of the exe-file? The captivate default icon is not exactly
what I need ;)
Thx

It may be worth trying Microangelo, it's worked in the past
for doing
the same thing to Authorware .exe files. If I recall, the
newer versions
may result in the .exe not being usable but if you can find
older
versions, they may have better results.
If not Microangelo, look for 'icon resource editors' and
maybe another
such software option will work...but that's really the only
option I
know of.

How to use Preloader with stand-alone application in Eclipse? Thank you.

My IDE is eclipse and my project is a stand-alone application(pure CS architecture with OSGI framework).
How to use Preloader thus the preloader would be started before my main Application and hid later?
I found some code in http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/deployment/preloaders.htm#BABGGDJG
but I still don't know how to deploy the Preloader with my startup Application in OSGI framework.
I give some code of my startup application below:
public class MyPrjMain extends Application
    private static Stage primaryStage;
     public void start(final Stage stage)
        throws BusinessException
        primaryStage = stage;
        init(primaryStage);
        primaryStage.show();
}Thanks very much, everybody.

Accessing JMS Queue located in stand alone managed server on same domain

Our use-case is as follows.
In our weblogic domain we have SOA_Cluster and a stand alone managed server. All the custom JMS resources belong to a JMS server that is targeted to stand alone JMS server. We are trying to access JMS Queues/Topics located in the stand alone managed server from JMS adapter (part of SOA Cluster).
I am wondering what should be our adapter configuration in this scenario. In going through JMS adapter use-cases (below is the link), there is a mention of how to access resources located in Remote weblogic Domain. I am wondering if the same applies to us OR if there is better way to access JMS resources for our use case.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_jms.htm#CJAHAFGF
Appreciate your feedback.

Skin menu won't work in stand alone published project

Morning
I created skin with a menu, but when I published it
as a stand alone (.exe) the menu doesn't link to anything... I've
double ck'd my links and all are OK. The links I put in to other
project via a 'button' work fine. It's just the skin menu that
doesn't work. Help! Thank you

Hi Jef,
thanks for your answer. There were noch errors while installation, and, as I have said, the bridge ist working within Photoshop as "Minibridge" Trying to start bridge itself still fails.
I was also using the above mentioned loganalyzer, he returned a message, that everything is ok with the install.
any further ideas? I am concerned, that maybe the download from the Adobe-Site could be corrupt and/or incomplete???
Best regards,

Dependency list in project shows 2 DLL files. What do I need to do when creating a stand-alone executable file to ensure that it is included?

When the executable that I created is run on a stand-alone machine, a search is instantly launched to locate the missing *.DLL files along with about 20 other sub vi files from an example vi file that I downloaded last week. Once the exampe vi was open, I modified the block diagram and the front panel and then I resaved it with a new name.
The missing sub-vi files are the same files that I saw listed in the Dependencies list of the project along with the 2 DLL files. This problem shouldn't be happening because I included the top level vi file that contains the sub-vi files into the source files list under the Start-Up VIs window of the application properties. What needs to be done to make this stand-alone executabale complete?

OK...So it's not a simple as clicking the mountian icon above and inserting the location of the picture file on my PC huh? It works on my end just fine, but I understand you all don't see it.
I really don't understand why this is such a complicated process in this discussion forum, but your explanation isn't working for me. SO, I'm going to write what I understand to be the proper procedure and you tell me if it's wrong.
Attach my image using the Browse button below. That makes sense. Done that.
Edit my post - Edit it? How is typing this message in the window any different from editing my post??? Are you sugesting that I Edit As HTML(http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/post?board.id=170&message.reply_to_id=244152#) using the shortcut in the lower right hand side of the frame??? I not, please explain a different way.
I right clicked the adress in the window under the Attachment heading below the lower left hand side of the frame, copied it and pasted it into the Script Prompt: dialog pop-up that appeared when I clicked on the mountain icon in the tools menu. By the way,
Now I see my image in the post just before I sent it.
Don't you see it now?
As for the DLL file - the ONLY way I can find the DLL file that I need is to refresh the dependencies list in my project. As I explained in my previous posts, those two DLL files came with an example vi that i downloaded from the NI website last week and they must have been embedded inside of the example because I didn't create them myself and I've since resaed the original example vi as one that's been renamed by myself. In doing so, I presume that the DLL file was inherited from the original example vi file to my own vi file. However, that's clearly not the case because every time I run the executable file that I created with the renamed example vi file in my project, it immediately launches a searchfor the DLL files that it claims are missing!!! SInce the DLL files are ONLY visible in the dependencies list, I can't transfer them to the Dynamic VI and Support files window in the Application Builder. SO, I drag them up the Source Files tree in the Application Builder to the top of the tree where the Start-up vi is located and then I can move them to the Dynamic VI and Support Files window. Those DLL files don't appaer inthe top level of the tree where the Start-up vi appears before I move it to the Start-up vi window of the Application Builder. I'll try it again.

To set environment variables in OC4J stand alone server

Hello,
I deployed my application to OC4J standalone server. I need to set some environment variables, which will be accessed from my application.
Could you please let me know, how to set the environment variables for the application which runs from stand alone OC4J server ?
Thanks!

Hello,
Thanks for providing me the information. Here is what I am trying to accomplish...
I have a Web service application which in turn calls a Java application and which invokes a third party application. The third party application expects some environment variables to be set.
I set these environment on my local machine, and when I executed the Java application as a standalone application within JDeveloper - it works. But when I deployed this application to the stand alone OC4J server and when I execute the application, the third party application is not getting the environment variables correctly. (that's what I am guessing here..)
I just put System.getenv() to get the environment variables and the value is displaying correctly.
As Jacco suggested, I passed these env. variables thru' the startup of OC4J server.
(i.e.) java -D<variable1>=value1 -D<variable2>=<value2> -jar oc4j.jar and still didn't work.
Do I have to pass these values thru' any XML file within OC4J server..
Any thoughts ? I appreciate if you can provide some input.
Thanks!

Deployment problem from Jdev (V 11.1.2.0.0) to stand alone weblogic v10.03

Jay,
you can't run jdev 11.1.2 apps on a wls 10.3.4 server. The adf runtime libraries are different and you get exactly the error you see. Spare your time trying to get it running...
The sherman patch (patch 12611176) is only available via http://support.oracle.com/ (you need avalid support contract). If you have one read my blog about installing the patch http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/06/25/upgrading-wls-10-3-5-with-adf-runtime-11-1-2-0-0-sherman-patch/ andhttp://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/06/29/follow-up-upgrading-wls-10-3-5-with-adf-runtime-11-1-2-0-0-sherman-patch/.
If you really want to use 11.1.2 apps you have to update your wls server to 10.3.5 first, then apply the patches...
If you can't update you have to user jdve 11.1.1.4.0 together with wls10.3.4

Cannot install Applcations in Stand-Alone Media image

Since updating from SCCM 2012 R2 to CU3 i have not been able to get our Stand-Alone media to work.
The Task Sequence is running fine until it gets to the install of the SCCM client. The installation of the client runs and then it restarts and then it runs it again, but when the task is done it goes to the login screen of Windows and ignores all the steps
which comes after the client install.
I have put in some alerts in order to find out exactly where is fails and the alert which runs prior to the client install is shown but the alert immediately after the install is never run.
I am beginning to supect that the client install is failling.
I have updated the package on the DP wihthout success.

I hope someone out there can point me in the right direction

Hi Martin
Could you try adding a delay in the task sequence after the reboot, I have experienced a number of problems with SCCM 2012 R2 and reboots in task sequences. Microsoft Premier Support recommend creating a 5 minute delay. A shorter one may resolve the problem,
I would recommend trying this first.
The other thing to check is how are you preparing you boot media are you using a usb, if so is it formatted to NTFS or FAT32, I would always recommedn NTFS

RoboHelp project management strategy

Morning
I have some general questions, for which I doubt there are any "correct" answers, but I'm sure people will have useful to say all the same. First, some background information.
I have used RoboHelp before (version 8) to manage a handful of small, disparate projects, but I have not used the software for a couple of years (which is probably the last time I used these forums, but under a different ID).
In my current role I manage around 400 hundred Word documents, from which I generate user guides as PDFs, spread across three or four software releases. There is not a lot of cross over between these guides, but there are a number of core pieces of functionality, which sometimes bleed into the other areas. I also manage some very basic online help pages, most of which are duplicates of what is in the Word docs. As it stands I have no single-sourcing and often changes in one version of a guide also need to be made to the other versions and the online help.
I am looking to streamline this system, by moving away from Word docs and using RoboHelp 10 instead. While my company has not decided precisely how they want to distribute documentation for future products, I am pretty confident I will need to continue to generate online help (for which customers will only get updates once a quarter) and stand alone PDFs.
Based on the quantity and content of the guides I have, I think each version of the software will need around 10,000 topics (and well over a 1,000,000 words), with maybe 5,000 image files. From this I will need to output selected text and images for the online help (which will be context sensitive) and around 100 PDFs. For now I will be managing this on my own, but I may need to work collaboratively with another tech author in the near future.
So that's the background, here are my questions:
Is it practical to put all of that into a single project?
Will future collaborative working require the documentation to be broken down into separate projects?
How easy is it to manage context sensitive help across multiple projects
We use Serena Dimensions for version control. Does RoboHelp 10 integrate with Dimensions effectively or will I need to also use RoboSource?
Our PDFs are heavily formatted and include the following:
- a cover page
- standard declaration and revision history page
- contents page
- mirrored headers/footers which include the document title, chapter heading, page number and copyright statement.
- auto-numbered paragraphs, which swap to letters for the appendices.
- a readers' comments section at the back
- a rear cover.
Is it possible to include all that in PDFs generated from RoboHelp content, in the same way you might from Word?
Am I assuming I will need to create a separate SSLfor each PDF I need to generate, each with its own TOC. Is that right?
Any general tips on managing different versions of the same documentation, several of which will be live at the same time?
Thanks in advance
DocBot (formerly Euromatt)

@Jeff I would be more inclined to agree if DocBot already had the files in Fm. Not all Word output is bad and most of what I have seen is perfectly usable. It is going to come down to content so given s/he has them in Word I think I would try using those files first to see how well the Rh to Word/PDF goes. Then if DocBot is not getting the required result Fm could be considered.
Is it practical to put all of that into a single project?
You could but then if you want one PDF per Word document you will need to create separate print layouts and you will have many.
Will future collaborative working require the documentation to be broken down into separate projects?
One author per project or use Source Control are your options.
How easy is it to manage context sensitive help across multiple projects
I wouldn't like to answer that. It's really down to your developers how easy they find it.

Ask in the Source Control forum or a wider forum. I haven't seen Serena mentioned.

No to most. See Printed Documentation on my site. The same would be true of the Fm to Rh workflow if you generate from Rh. However, as Jeff points out, you could generate the PDF from Fm so I'll leave Jeff to comment on what that would support.
Am I assuming I will need to create a separate SSLfor each PDF I need to generate, each with its own TOC. Is that right?
Any general tips on managing different versions of the same documentation, several of which will be live at the same time?
Rh would see each version as a separate document.

Robo 8 Topic files not displaying in project manager

I am working on a project upgrade and have made new topics in Robo 8 project. When I view the topic files for a particular folder in the Project Manager view only 1/2 of my topics are displayed.. When I look in the folder (behind the scenes), all my topics are there, just not displayed in the Project Manager. What do I need to do? Thanks!.

Peter,
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
I have a project that I tested with RH 8.0.2.208 using the following steps/results.
October 5, 2009 – last date the project was modified – based on the modified date of *.htm files and *.xpj file.
Copied the project.
Opened the copy using *.xpj.
Broken links exist.
Opened a 10-5-2009 copy of the actual HTML help file. Checked one broken link topic. The topic exists in the output and looks correct.
Copied the project again.
Deleted *.cpd.
Open the new copy using *.xpj.
Broken links exist.
Generated (HTML) primary output.
Checked one broken link topic (same as above). Topic content exists, but the screen captures in the topic do not. A red x appears in place of the screen captures.
I do not know how to uninstall only the patch. I looked at Add or Remove programs, and I do not see a stand alone entry for the patch.
To uninstall the patch, do I have to completely uninstall RH 8.0.2 and reinstall the older version fresh? That seems like a major bother. An uninstall and fresh install of the earlier version will likely eliminate some styles and other settings that I have saved.
Is there a way to uninstall just the patch?
As an alternative to uninstalling 8.0.2, I opened a fresh copy of the project (last modified 10-5-2009) on a machine with RH 8.0.203 installed, i.e., a machine without the patches installed.
There were no problem with the project, i.e., no broken links.

How to Identify the Network Topology being used for a running ForeFront TMG Stand Alone array?

Hello Experts,
My client has decided to move their datacenter from one location to other including the ForeFront TMG servers which are being used as Reverse Proxy and TMG Gateway in DMZ environment.
I need to know the network topology used for this configuration so that I could chose the same topology when creating new TMG environment at new datacenter. Here are some details :
1. There are 2 TMG servers configured in a DMZ Workgroup in Stand Alone array.
2. Both servers have 3 NIC attached to them. (one has all public IPs configured, another one has internal IP address and the third one has Management IP which is used to connect the server via RDP).
3. There are more than 50 websites published via this standalone array.
I am very new to Forefront TMG technology and need to know the Topology used to create such environment.
Thanks
Lalit

Hi,
According to your description, you can use the 3-leg perimeter network template and choose which network adapter connects to the LAN, which network adapter connects to the external network and which network adapter connects to the DMZ.
Did you set up TCP/IP settings for the three NICs? If not, please refer to the link below:
Recommended Network Adapter Configuration for Forefront TMG Enterprise Edition Servers

Stand Alone Skin Editor

Here is the scenario. I am strictly a front-end developer using HTML, CSS, Javascript etc. I have been brought onboard to work on a project that uses the Oracle Fusion Middleware ADF Framework. I am a total noob with this stuff!!
We are currently working a project using jDevleoper 11.1.1.4 (We cannot use a different/updated version - we are currently stuck with this version, and no I do not know why)
I am going to be responsible for ALL of the front-end look and feel. I thought, ok no biggie, I just work my CSS magic and that will create everything as needed... Boy was I absolutely wrong! So I checked the ADF Skin Editor (have to use the stand alone version due to project being worked on within 11.1.1.4). I am having an extremely hard time find tutorials just using the standalone version! Every tutorial or demo is using the integrated Skin Editor within jDeveloper 11.1.2.
Does anyone know of any good beginner tutorials for using the standalone Skin Editor? I am really struggling with this since I don't even know if I can actually use the editor to create the .css and then how to get into the jDeveloper 11.1.1.4 project!?
Again, I am totally new to this and back-end environment. What may seem like basic ideas/thoughts/language to you, is actually like me trying to read a foreign language that I have no understanding of. So think of me like ultimate dummy here! :)
I appreciate any feedback, suggestions on tutorials/demos/books and thoughts that anyone can provide for me to learn this.
Thank you and have a great day!
Michael

Hi,
just few inputs from me, just hoping it would be helpful, the easiest thing you can do are :
1) download jdev 11.1.2 version, there you can select new skin file, drag and drop component and play around, and then go to source, you will see code you made in design. see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16162_01/user.1112/e17456/adfsg_selectors.htm for more details.
2) use http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/components/skinningKeys/menu.jspx , and play around and and click print content to see the generated code.
You can copy generated code and use in your jdev 11.1.1.4 version or wtever version :)
The main idea here is, you have to know the skin selector for each component.
for example for af:menu component you css selector would be
af|menu {
and again, for menu bar item selector is :
af|menu::bar-item{
for hover :
af|menu::bar-item:highlighted{
background-color: #959595 !important;
Just to give me head up,
for af:commandButton => af|commandButton{ }
for af:breadcrumb => af|breadcrumb{}
and so forth
and each of these has psedo selector such as :selected , :highlighted ::menu-item-text but each component will have different different psedo selector ...
eg :
af|commandMenuItem::bar-item:depressed
af|commandMenuItem::bar-item:highlighted
af|commandMenuItem:highlighted::menu-item-open-indicator
af|menuBar::overflow-indicator
af|breadCrumbs::step:selected
af|breadCrumbs::step
go through this link for all different selector and psedo selectors

Security in stand-alone persistence

hi,
i've got stand alone persistance in my java project, so im using PU with query language, last time i was snffing my ethernal interface, and noticed that queries are like a simple text, if there is any easy way to secure this informations? can persistence manager use JSSE? do you have some suggestions about any solutions? in my point i dont want to do lots of code modifications instead of saying PU to use some secure connection...
thanks for advice

:) PU is my persistence unit (in this case toplink), im using PostgreSQL so there is SSL but how to say PU to use some SSL connection, normaly im using something like that:
EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("MyPU");
javax.persistence.EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();and now
em.getTransaction().begin();
em.createQuery("Select p FROM Person p").getResultList()and my persistence
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
