Public Portal Page

I am looking to create a public page with the login portlet as part of the page and also other dynamic public portlets.
Is it possible to create a portal page that has static data, and portlets such as the login portlet that can be viewed by anyone.

Yes, you can create a page, include the login portlet and make it available for public.
I would not recommend to make this page the startpage of your portal since you want to include dynamic content. The startpage needs to load quick, dynamic content will increase the time it takes to load the page since you can't use time based caching.

Public content on secure portal page?

We have placed public PDF files (read only for public) into a common "documents" portal page, ie. portal/mul/documents. Links on various portal pages reference the docs in this documents page, ie portal/mul/documents/my_august_05.pdf
A user can modify the URL down to where they can display the "documents" page itself, and a listing of all files on that "documents" page.
How can we let public view the content of files stored in the "documents" page, but prohibit the public from viewing the listing of the contents of "documents" page itself?
Thx.

I don't know if this is exactly the solution you are looking for but I've done something similar in the past where the page and tabbed region where items were published were granted access to group A but some of the items on that page were granted item-level access to both group A and group B. On a totally separate page, a custom search portlet was published that searched the entire page group. Group B could then see the links to the items that they had access to eventhough they could not actually go to the page and tab those items were published on. Does that make sense?

How can i change the default Portal page

When i access Portal (3.0.9) with my browser it leads me to the well known 'Welcome to Oracle Portal' page (which was installed during Portal configuration). From there i can continue to the login screen, log in and start working.
Now, i would like to change the welcome screen to another Portal Page, one with my company's info on it. Can anyone tell me how to to it?
Thanx
Ben

Just change the default page of the public user.

I am not able to use two backing files in same portal page

hi to all
i am using backing files in remote portlet.
but i have two portlets in my portal page and in both i need to use backing files. i used seperate backing files for both the portlets but only one works at a time.
please help me out frnds..
did this happening because of same object MarkupRequestState.KEY..... following is code that i am using. similar code used for another portlet, just a change of state varible and parameter variable
am i missing something?
package backempno;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import com.bea.netuix.servlets.controls.content.backing.AbstractJspBacking;
import com.bea.wsrp.ext.holders.MarkupRequestState;
import com.bea.wsrp.ext.holders.SimpleStateHolder;
public class sendempno extends AbstractJspBacking
public boolean preRender(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)
SimpleStateHolder state2 = new SimpleStateHolder();
String empno=request.getParameter("empno");
state2.addParameter("empno",empno);
request.setAttribute(MarkupRequestState.KEY, state2);
return true;
}

Hi Susan,
In that case I will recommend that you consult a local technician/IT team and see if there is some network connectivity issue with your machine.

Netscape 4.76 not will not display portal page

I understand from metalink document 136120.1 that no 4.7 Netscape browsers are supported.
I have a portal page that will not display for my 4.7x surfers.
Is this remedied by the latest patch? Will it be a problem in v2?
Is it clear that this basically keeps us from using portal for public sites?

Hello,
maybe you could try to rename the user profile, so windows will generate a new profile, when this user logs on to his machine. afterwards you can copy the important data from the renames profile to the new profile. perhaps this eliminates the problem.
if you switch javascript off, you will also get just a small bar from the portal. maybe on this client something is installed, that switches javascipt off?
best regards,
Christian Schebsta

Can I use a standard Portal page as Single Sign-On page?

Hi all
IHAC that would like to be able to maintain the login page. I have told them that it might be difficult as the login page is a jsp file and not a standard portal page. So now I'm wondering if it would be possible to create a standard portal page with a standard login portlet and use this as a login page. I have tried creating a page and updated WWSSO_LS_CONFIGURATION_INFO$ but no luck :-(
Environment: OracleAS 10g R2 (10.1.2.0.2)
Thanks in advance
Claus

Yes. that makes sense :-)
I'm afraid that you will be unable to replace the current SSO JSP page with a portal page. The SSO JSP not only draws the login screen, it also generates the site2pstoretoken for you. This is necessary for the login process to complete.
What about having a public page with a page link to a customized portal page with login portlet to replace the SSO page?

Dynamic portal page generation

I wrote a jsp page to display the available discoverer reports to an user. User selects a few of the reports (no more than 6) and adds them as his favorite. I add this information in a custom table. Now I want to generate a page called "Report Favorites" for that user with his favorite reports. i.e I need to basically add 6 worksheet portlets to this page and then display the page. Is this doable? If so, what are the steps?

There are no public APIs to add portlets to portal pages.

Doctype added to top of portal page

Does anyone know how to get a doctype to output at the top of a portal page (we are on the 7.3 portal)? I have an external facing site that absolutely needs a doctype specified.
You used to be able to use the deprecated
PortalHtmlResponse.getHtmlDocument()
method to get a reference to the document, and you could add a doctype from that. However, the PortalHtmlResponse object no longer exists, it seems.
I want to add the doctype
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
at the top of a portal page.

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/001bfa1a-958e-2e10-c2be-d914f673e21e?overridelayout=true
We were able to add a doctype. I don't recall all of the details because we moved away from SAP portal. However, you can get a good start from this document.
Essentially, you create a Java portal component that can inject a doctype into any page the component is on.
com.sapconsulting.portal.utils.html_api.jar is what provides the base functionality to do this.
public class DocType extends AbstractPortalComponent
     public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
          EnhancedPortalResponse epResponse = new EnhancedPortalResponse(request, true, false);
          epResponse.setDocTypeToHtml5();
          epResponse.include(HtmlFactory.createHttpEquivMeta("X-UA-Compatible", "IE=edge"));
If I remember correctly, we packaged this code up with an Xml config file to make the portal component, installed it in the portal, and included it in any page that needed the document type set.
I believe the jar file was just open source community code.

Form does not show up after been put in portal page

I have created form application and tested it in 9iAS but when I put it in Portal page, It does not show up in the Portal page. The report that I created under the same Application does show up. However, it does not show the form. I have check the Access and everything looks right. (I even grant it to the public and still does not work).
Any help would be appreciated.

Johnny,
This looks strange. We haven't encountered such problem. Could you pls give us more details. Like:
Are you using "Inherit Privilege from Application" ?
Are you using Tab page/ Normal Page.
If tab pages, have you set tab level security?
Are you able to run that particular form from application? (Pls check it has a Valid production version).
Are both forms & reports in the same application?
Is this problem occuring for only a particular form or for all the forms?
If you could provide the STEPS that you did..
Thanx,
Chetan.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Chetan and Johnny,
I have the same problem as Johnny. Chetan, in answer to your questions:
1. Yes, I am using "Inherit Privilege from Application"
2. I tried it both on a page and on a tab and checked security, following the directions in "Building Portals, Release 3.0.8" Using "Portal30" login, access "Manage" etc.
3. Yes, the form runs in Application, but not as a portlet on a portal page. We are using the standard demo configuration, Oracle 8i (enterprise ed.) and Oracle9i Application Server (minimal ed.).
4. Yes, valid production version.
5. I tried running reports and forms from same application and from different applications. Still does not show up on portal page.
6. It occurs for all forms.
7. Steps: As I indicated, I followed the directions closely in "Building Portals" which builds "Form based on table or view", "Publish to Portal" I even tried the database sequence (see page 4-27) and added that to the form configuration. I'm running it on NT 4.0 (service pack 5). The software was downloaded from the Oracle site.

Publishing content from reports server to a portal page

I have a system with Forms/Reports 6i in a client/server implementation. I have 6i reports server from this on the server tier. I have added 9iAS (minimal install) to get Portal and HTTP server. I have completed the configuration and I can have the portal page submit jobs to the reports server and they are displayed properly.
But I also wish to run reports from the application. This app submits jobs to the reports server via RWCLI60. I was hoping I could use 'File' as the destype and drop off content into a directory the web server knows about and then have a portal page that will generate links to the files. These could be pdf or html output.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and provide a short list of steps to configure it? Thanks.

there is an example of this on dev2dev, see sample code, "redirect" example

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

How to change one iView to another in portal page by clicking the third one

Hi all!
I have created four iViews: two speedometers with web application designer and two iViews with visual composer. I added the speedometers and a visual composer iView #1 to a portal page (default view). The requirement is that by clicking the speedometer #2, the visual composer iView #2 would replace visual composer iView #1 on the portal page. If the user then would select the speedometer #1 again by clicking it, visual composer iView #2 would replace #1 again and so on.
I have read article http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50b65a5d-f397-2910-a78a-f5544f21c33b?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true, but it is more about filtering VC iView values with BI web items. I don't need to filter anything, just to change one iView to another in a portal view by clicking a third one.
I have thought of placing two VC iView to a same portal page area and defining one of the to be visible and another hidden (by clicking speedometers these properties would change), but I haven't found the way how that could be done in portal. Is there a way to define some OnClick-method to change visibility parameters or url-address of another iView?
One solution might be¨on the other hand to transfer any value to VC by clicking a speedometer and to change the visibility of the VC iViews according to that value (the speedometer #1 should in that case transfer other value to VC than speedometer #2). I don't know if that is possible with speedometers - you can't reference any characteristics or variables with it.
If you have an idea, what would be the best way to accomplish this requirement, I would be very glad to hear about it! We are in VC 7.0.
Points garanteed!
Regards
Sari

Hi,
In the portal, create a page and place the iView having the three input fields on top. Place the second iView below. Keep differing the second iView for every page. In this way you can make the iView with 3 input fields only in the desired pages. You can use EPCF to invoke / navigate to another iView.

Portal Applications in Portal Page

In the newest version of Portal (Oracle9ias Portal Release 2) I'm having the following problem:
I have a Portal form that I created in Portal. I want to add that Portal form as a portlet in a Portal Page. I can add the Portal Form successfully into the page if I add the form as a 'Item Displayed Directly In Page Area'. However, if I chose the display as a 'Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window ' or 'Link That Displays Item In Full Browser Window', no link appears. In past versions if I selected this option a link would appear in the page that took me to the Portal Form. In this new version, the portlet is added but the link is invisible??? Is this a bug or is there something I'm missing???

Hi,
This is a bug. It has already been filed.
