In my portal application, I need to retrieve a system alias details. The system is an R/3 system and I need to know its application server address, system number and client number.
Do you know if I can achieve that using portal API?
Thank you,

Access to Entity Service from Portal Application

Hi Experts,
I have a hybrid application which will be making use of both Web Dynpro and Portal Applications. I decided to use Entity Services to store my back-end data and can access it fine from the Web Dynpro project. I have included the public part of my CAF project into the Used DCs of my Portal project and while I am able to call the methods of the Entity Service at compile time, at runtime I receive an error message on the page:
An exception occurred while processing a request
I know in order to get this to work for Web Dynpro I had to include sap.com/tccolapi.sap.com/cafruntimeuicouplingapilib as a Library Reference and a few Used DCs, but while I have added the Used DCs to the Portal project, I am unsure of how to add the Library Reference. I assume this has to be added to portalapp.xml, but I don't know the syntax.
Could somehow please reply with how to do this and whether this is all that is required in order to call Entity Service methods from Portal applications?
Thanks,
JP

Hi Smith,
Write click on the Project then goto the Properties=>Webdynpro References=>Library references
add
caf/eu/gp/api
sap.com/cafruntimeuicouplingapilib
And add the following DC in your project.
1> External in caf/eu/gp/api (CAF domain)
2> caf/eu/gp/api/wd (CAF domain)
3> com.sap.security.api.sda (SAP-JEE)
portalapp.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<application>
<application-config>
<property name="SharingReference" value="usermanagement, knowledgemanagement, landscape, htmlb, exportalJCOclient, exportal, SAPJ2EE::library:cafeugp~api"/>
</application-config>
<components/>

How to remove the system data details from the overview tab in crmd_order?

Hi All,
How to remove the system data details from the overview tab in crmd_order?

Hi,
It is a standard functionality. Those information will be very useful when you send a message to SAP.
If you still want to remove them, raise an OSS message.

JNDI lookup from Portal Application Module

Dear Experts,
I have a problem with looking up a Deployable Web Service Proxy from within a Portal Application Module.
I use NWDI and created both the Deployable WS Proxy DC and the Portal App DC.
I added the generated Proxy to the Proxy DC's public part and added it as used DC to the Portal Module DC.
When I perform the JNDI lookup, no exception is thrown but the Code is not executed any further...
Here is the source:
Category.APPLICATIONS.infoT( loc, "lookup JNDI...", new Object[] { this });
Object o = ctx.lookup(JNDI_NAME);
Category.APPLICATIONS.infoT( loc, o.getClass().getName(), new Object[] { this });
service = (OrchestrationService)o;
Category.APPLICATIONS.infoT(loc, "success!", new Object[] { this });
The log shows the name of the class (OrchestrationServiceImpl) but not the success! part.
As I said: No exceptions are thrown...
Any help is appreciated!
Matthias

Solved the problem!
It's allways the same:
As soon as you ask the question the answer comes to you by itself...
I needed to add a reference to the using DC. I already did that before but not correctly:
If you want to add a reference to a j2ee application you need to read this document:
[Calling J2EE Applications from Portal Applications|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/42/9ddf20bb211d72e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
It says the reference has to look like this:
<property name="SharingReference" value="SAPJ2EE::sap.com/Hello"/>
I hope it helps someone.

Code generate report in excel format from portal(Application Server)

Hi all
Please give some solution with code generate report in excel format from
oracle portal(Application Server).

Not feasible.
Why? Because "the Excel format" is a binary and proprietary Microsoft file format. And writing a generator to generate Excel files will be complex, and resource expensive. In the vast majority of cases this will not be justified.
As an alternative the very basic Microsoft XML office format can be used. But note that this is not a a ISO standard (it has been shot down in flames) - and effort and resources for that would be better spend on the Open Document XML standard (which very likely will be ratified as the ISO standard instead).
Of course, you could have meant a CSV file - in which case, you need to play close attention to details. CSV is not an Excel format. A software designers and developers, our success is determined by attention to technical detail. In which case you are not paying any attention to technical detail by confusing CSV with Excel.

Break points are not triggering in RFC from portal application

Helllo,
I am running Biller Direct application from portal, which is triggering a standard SAP RFC FM back end, am trying to debug my execution from portal, for this i put the External Break point, Session break-poiint at the beginning of this SAP RFC FM, but, its not stoppping at ll, here the user is a Web user, not dialog user.
How can i stop my execution in this SAP RFC FM to check how the structures are populated?
Thank you

Hi Raju,
Please try the below way and check if it works.
Open the RFC in R/3 i.e.
SE37 -> give FM NAME -> DISPLAY.
Click on UTILITIES -> SETTINGS -> CLICK THE TAB debugging.
In the screen against the field users : give the value 'WEBLOGIN'.
Uncheck the FLAG 'IP MATCHING'.
And at the bottom check the check box against the field
'Session Break Point Activate Immediately'.
Save these settings.
Then go to the line at which you want to debug the code and put an external break point over there.
But, please take care of one thing as we are giving it as a WEBLOGIN, when ever some logs in, it will reach the brteak point and stop there. We have to click F8 to continue. Or else, the portal will be hanged for them.
Thanks & regards,
Y Gautham

How do you create an iView from a deployed custom portal component?
In other words, what is the alternative way of u201Cnew iView from paru201D in the new portal version?
Thanks a lot.

Send mail from Portal application using java

Hi everybody,
I'm looking for a way to send mails from my portal application written in java.
Now I've read a lot of topics on this but can't seem to get it straight.
I added a few jars to my project among which is
coll.appl.gw.srvcmail_api.jar
Here you have the ISendMailItem.class and ISendMailService.class files.
Now I know these are interfaces so I created 2 new classes:
Mail implementing ISendMailItem
SendMail implementing ISendMailService
And all of the forced methods are created for me but now I don't know how to use these classes to be able to send a mail.
Can someone help me with this please?
Thank you
Regards
Wouter

Hey Göran,
Thank you for this example.
for the transport i've put this
transport.connect( "smtpgateway.arinso.com", "", "" );
Is this correct? or do I need to fill in more info?
I've adde the mail.jar to my buildpath and put your code in a eventhandler.
When I now generate the corresponding event i get an Exception:
java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.mail.Session
Do you know why I get this?
Thank you

Finding and retrieving an XML file from an application and an applet

I have a problem.
I have data stored in an XML file. I want to be able to call that file and store it into a document object from an application standing alone on a computer as weel as from an applet that would be running over the web.
I don't know how to do this.
When I use a relative path name for the application it attaches the path of the folder that contains java.exe. I could do something with the class path but this wouldn't help the end user of the application on a different computer. For similar reasons I don't want to hard code because I don't know where the final applet will be stored.
I have a table that holds, sorts and filters the data so I want the table to collect the data, I don't want to dictate the path from the applet or the application, I want a method that is consistant with both scenarios.
Can anyone offer some advice?

I've just finished trying it out, here is what I did:
String xmlDocName="filename.xml";
java.net.URL fileURL=this.getClass().getResource(xmlDocName);
private final String fileName = fileURL.toString().substring(6);
The substring removes the "file:/" from the URL.
This works fine in the IDE, I have even stored the xml file in a lower folder e.g. package_folder/xml_folder/filename.xml and replaced the xmlDocName with "xml_folder/filename.xml" and it worked fine.
I haven't tried it in an applet because I'm running IE and as you are well aware there are problems with swing and IE applets. But you answer deserves the Duke Dollars, thank you very much.

Metadata through user input from portal application while new check In

Hi,
We have a requirment to create new doc/html from portal end, and check in it into UCM with user populated metadata's
I have few quetions
- Can I user OOTB RichtextEditor taskflow with little customization.
- Is it a easy option to add a check in form (custom taskflow).
- or we have to create new custom taskflow and use CHECKIN_NEW service using RIDC api.
Thanks
Edited by: 953836 on Aug 21, 2012 2:20 AM

You could go with the standard stuff, but everything depends on what user experience you want to achieve.
a) doc/html
What formats you want to support? HTML is OK, but .DOC (especially if it means MS-Word) might be a challenge
b) you could use SSXA tags (see here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e13650/toc.htm ) which could do exactly what you ask for (via Contributor Data Files). Note, however, that this user experience is not often met with understanding. And even more important, mind this: Clarification on SSXA Support with WebCenter Portal
c) you could also use CHECKIN_NEW_FORM (see here http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e11011/c04_core.htm#BABGBCHI ) and somehow consume its output in your custom code. By doing this, you could use Content's standard functionality, profiles, but yet, achieve the user experience similar to what Desktop Integration Suite provides.

Retrieve username and password from Portal in external appl.

Hi All,
I have deployed an web application containing jsp into OC4J. I have registered this application as an external application in the portal. I need to capture the username and password required for the external application in the jsp (deployed as web application) after the external application has been authenticated by SSO server.
Can i get it from the request or is ther any other way to capture the user credentials in the jsp of the external application?
Thanks & Regards,
SY

Actually if the JSP is registered as an external Application then it is the JSP itself that is doing the
authentication not the SSO server. The credentials are sent to the External Application either as HTTP
header entries or on the URL depending on the type of method chosen to submit the request. In an external
application the SSO server is effectively building the URL that would have come from the Login Page of the
application.
So in this case, if the application is being called as an external application, then they already have the
username/password. Else it would not be an external application.

Direct File System access problems from JAWS application

Hello,
I have built a Web Start application that consists of a Webserver (Jetty) ,
a WAR file and a Java (main) class that deploys the web application on
the server and starts the server. It all works fine, apart from the fact
that I am getting java.security.AccessControlExceptions when I try to
access the local filesystem or system variables like the java.io.tmpdir.
I have signed all the jar files and I included the<security> <allpermissions />
</security> tag in the jnlp file. Still, I can't seem to get out
of the sandbox.
I have read in this article (http://mindprod.com/jgloss/javawebstart.html)
that direct file system access from a Web Start application is impossible
(Quote: "There is still no way for even a signed JAWS app to
find some persistent disk space in an easy way. It pretty well
has to ask the user for the name of some directory to use.")
Is this true?
Thank you,
Peter

Hi Guys,
I found a way to access the local filesystem...
Besides signing all the jar files and including the<security><allpermissions /></security> tag in the jnlp file I have to include this line in the code I execute on the client machine:
System.setSecurityManager(null);

Peter

Deleting details from Portal Favourites

Hi Experts,
We're using EP to publish reports from BI. We have saved reports loaded in EP which is shown in Portal favourites in left side. We wanted to know how to delete those details. Also, guide me I want to list few details in favourites, how to do it.
If you need more details, kindly let me know. Hope you can suggest us with the above details.
thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi Narayanan,
For the question-1:
1. You should download the sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par.bak from the Portal Server.
2. Import PAR to your NWDS .
3. Now you can find the JSP pages where you can remove the log-off links, can disable (commenting) the banner images, etc.
4. After changing these stuff, upload the Par (without .bak) to portal.
5. Now refresh/relogin to portal , you should see the changes.
NOTE: Make sure you have the original masthead.PAR as a copy. If you want the original back then upload the original par back to Portal.
Also refere - Portal Branding - Go beyond portal themes
For question-2:
1) you need to create specific ROLES and assign those worksets/roles.
2) then create a GROUP assign those roles you want to
3) then assign the user to the groups
This is the standard way to do that.
Thanks

Retrieve System.Exception type from Server.GetLastError()

I added Global.asax in my web project to capture uncaught exceptions by try-catch. I need to get the exception type, so I can show a friendly message. Is this possible?
Thank you
Maher

"I need to get the exception type"
Server.GetLastError().GetType()?
You may want to check for a null exception before calling GetType.
"so I can show a friendly message."
Why do you need the type for that, you have the Message property of the exception object, that's the closest to "friendly" as you can get.
But for web apps displaying exception details is debatable, you may end up leaking information that's not supposed to be seen by the user. Simply displaying "An unexpected error occurred." is safer, exception details need to go to logs.
