Federated Portal Language change not visible on remote role

Hi,
Remote role assigment is done on consumer portal. This remote portal role comes from a BI Producer portal.
This roles has worksets and iviews attached to it like km navigation iview etc.
User on consumer portal has options to change his language to french from default english.
Here the issue is, this language change does not reflect or apply to the remote role and its iviews or contents.(It continues to show in english) . But it works without problem o n local roles or ivews as expected.
Any idea on how this language change can be effected on the remote role and its contentc will be much appreciated.
Regards,
Ashok D

Hello Ashok,
You must remember that because this is RRA the content will actually run on the producer (unless this is an AI iView).
This means that the language will be determine according to the user's language defined on the producer itself, therefor you have to change the language of that specific user on the producer portal.
If this does not help it might be that the iView is forcing the language, then we'll have to try somehthing else.
Update me with the results of the first triage,
Also have a look at SAP Note # 1295703 under the Language category, it explains the algorithem of determining the language.

Portal language refresh / reload (user data source ABAP stack)

Hello,
I'm on SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0 with user data source on ABAP stack.
I'm trying to create simple JavaScript links for changing the Portal language.
I was able to change the ABAP stack user's logon language by BAPI call.
But the newly set language shows up only after the user logs out and logs in again.
I know that in the WebDynpro for Java, which implements the UME user interface, there is a functionality, that allows that relogging of the user is not necessary. After setting the language you only refresh the browser page (F5) and the new language shows up.
Does anyone know what function I should call, for the language refresh (could be the same as in UME standard WDJ)?

Hi Andres,
language doesn't change on the Portal. The content remains in the previous language.
I know that the switching of Logon language parameter in the user profile in ABAP stack and logoff and login on the portal leads to change of the language on the Portal. But I don't know, how to do it without the relogging of the user.
I change the Logon language in ABAP by AJAX call of BAPI.
Thank you for any idea.

Portal Language Questions

Hi ALL,
I have a question. I am changing the portal language.
1)Do I need to change back end language.
2)If I need to change the back end language, tell me which of these back ends need to change the language setting.
ECC
SRM
CRM ISA
MDM
BI
Please guide me on this.

Keerthi

Hi Marcus,
We recently installed more Portal languages for an SSO project. This resulted in some IAC iViews no longer letting the user through to the backend over the ITS server if a language was used that was not available on the backend. The user would get a logon screen instead of the transaction with the language set to the portal language.
You can configure the iView to force a language that's available on the backend, but you can only select a single language here. If a user has a language selected in the Portal that would be available on the backend, then he will still be forced to work with that forced language...
So far I am unaware of a solution where you can pull the available languages on the backend directly. Our solution was to a enter the available languages in a parameter in the transaction iView, then read this parameter and see if the user has one of these languages selected. If not, then he's forced to use a fallback language (English for example).
You can read more about it here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/de95e490-0201-0010-b390-f0f23a95e2b8
So yeah, in essence you don't get an error per say, but you will be forced to change you r language in the iView before you can logon.
Cheers,
Hermann

Not able to see portal language in Personalize option

Hi All,
I login as an administrator, click Personalize option in the masthead ivew, I m unable to see the Portal Language option.
Other options such as workprotect mode and user mapping(remote iviews) are also not shown.
I m using EP6 SP13.
Is it because some permissions are missing??
Thanks in advance.
Abhishek.

Hi Sai,
Thanks for the reply.
I have checked that eu_role is assigned to admin and I know that eu_role is needed to view the personalize link.
Also, in the path that you have provided....Content Provided by SAP >> End User Content >> Standard Portal Users. >> worksets folder>>'portal personalization' workset ...I am able to see Portal Language,workprotect mode and other pages......
but when I click on the personalize link of the portal......I m unable to see those links.
Any help?

Language of Webdynpro after changing the Portal Language

Hi All,
Even after changing the portal language from for ex. English to French, the webdynpro is still displayed in English language.
If this session (portal window) is closed and new portal session is started, then the webdynpro is displayed in French.
Also please note that, for iviews built using Portal HTMLB (like JspDynPages), restarting the session is not necessary.
Any answer/solution/pointers/SAP Notes supplied is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Rajit

Hi,
Refer to SAP Note 947081 about Internationalization
The Blog at /people/bertram.ganz/blog/2007/01/08/the-top-12-hottest-sap-notes-every-web-dynpro-java-developer-must-know talks about this Note.
3rd point mentions about "Language change in the portal (through portal personalization) does not get immediately reflected in the Web Dynpro iViews?"
Hope this solves your query.

Restricting Portal Languages

Hello,
we would like to use only german and english as portal languages. Furthermore we have some users from ldap that don't have a language attribute. The users are from countries like finland and the browsers settings determine a finish portal. But we would like them to see an english portal.
We tried the language setting for logon page but browser language is still taken.
Does anyone have an idea how this can be solved ?
Kind Regards
Joachim Bertram

Hi,
Check this to know, where to find locale_list_service:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b2/77284a96264e9183161b7e8718dfa8/frameset.htm
Note 624929 still applies for EP 7.0, so this way you limit languages user can select in his profile.
But this still does not solve your problem, when the browser languages is different from german and english.
Check this how the Lookup of Resource Bundle happens:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/42/938297a5061d69e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
The only way to restrict that your portal shows only german and english is by having these languages set in user profiles. If not you will have to remove the Resource bundle properties files for other languages in all portal applications, which is really cumbersome.
So my advice is to apply Note 624929 and removes all languages except german and english, set german and english in all user profiles.

Praveen Gudapati

WDJ - List all Portal Languages

Hi,
There is anyway of get all languages available in Portal from WebDynpro Java ?
My requirement is to list all languages available in a combobox.
thanks.

I think portal uses some languages.properties file for supported portal languages.
The List of available language is defined in a Bundle, which is available as EAR file in UME engine.
Just a vague idea.. Can you read it in webdynpro?

BSP Exception: Access to URL /irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.ip.bi.web.portal.integration.launcher;jsessionid= not allowed

Dear all,
I've created out BI system in our new Portal installation and tested the connection. Everything works fine. I added the certificate of the portal to STRUSTSSO2 in BI ABAP and assigned SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW to my Account.in BI. If I open the iView from the portal I get a BSP Exception with the message:
The used connection by the iView is to the ABAP-Stack of the BI-system not to the JAVA-Stack. Is that correct?

What can be the problem/reason?

Hi Gerrit
In both places you have to provide a authorization access to the end users then only it will work. because your are already said that in SAP_All & SAP_New working fine

9.0.2.6 Portal Repository Upgrade Patch problems.

We got some problem with Portal when tryed to apply
9.0.2.6 Upgrade. Could anybody give advice on this issue:
Initial configuration:
Solaris8, Portal 9.0.2.2.14, Oracle 9iAS R2 v.9.0.2.0, RDBMS 9.0.1.3. The infrastructure and midtier work on different SPARC-servers.
Accordingly upgrade procedure we succesfully applied:
a) Infrastructure: 9.0.1.4 Patchset for Oracle RDBMS server, 9.0.2.2 Patchset for OID, Oracle 9iAS SSO-server
migration to 9.0.2.5, 9.0.2.2 Patchset for 9iAS Core.
b) 9.0.1.4 Patchset for Oracle RDBMS server, 9.0.2.2 Patchset for OID, Oracle 9iAS SSO-server migration to 9.0.2.5, 9.0.2.2 Patchset for 9iAS Core, Portal 9.0.2.6
patch.
After this we needed to make just one last step:
Portal 9.0.2.6 Repository Upgrade Patch (2981297) for
changing Portal's repository schemes. It worked but
like a result we got the next errors after patch upgrade
was done:
a) "The following invalid non-Portal objects exist in the Portal Schema: INDEX ABC (the name of portal object), PACKAGE BODY WWMON_REP_REPOSITORY, PACKAGE BODY WWMON_REP_REPOSIT_DTL, PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "," when expecting one of the following: (-+case mod not null <an identifier>,...) The symbol "null" was substituted for "," to continue.)" See upgtmp/nonportal.log
b) "ERROR: 1 invalid objects remain; ERROR: Failed while updating the new portlet IDS..."
c) "ERROR: ORA-01407: cannot update ("PORTAL"."WWSBR_URL$"."URL") to NULL.
d) Two package body of packages at PORTAL scheme became invalid: WWMON_REP_REPOSITORY, WWMON_REP_REPOSIT_DTL. About 20 package body of packages at PORTAL_DEMO became invalid (It seems like initial portlet ID's disappeared
and except of pportlet_id there is nothing:
Example:
inital statement at body:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PORTAL.wwpro_api_invalidation.invalidate_cache(
p_provider_id => p_provider_id,
p_portletid => 1065753336,
p_instance_id => p_reference_path,
p_subscriber_id => PORTAL.wwctx_api.get_subscriber_id ,
p_user => PORTAL.wwctx_api.get_user);
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
after upgrade repository patch:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PORTAL.wwpro_api_invalidation.invalidate_cache(
p_provider_id => p_provider_id,
p_portletid => ,
p_instance_id => p_reference_path,
p_subscriber_id => PORTAL.wwctx_api.get_subscriber_id ,
p_user => PORTAL.wwctx_api.get_user);
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Like a result after 9.0.2.6 Portal Repository Upgrade Patch application we lost the possibility to edit user's
profiles at Portal and other nesessary features. It seems
like some portlet ID's just dissapeared from Portal scheme. Could anybody had the same problem with Portal Upgrade 9.0.2.6? Quite possible that we missed some important element at during upgrade but ,really, we didn't wait so unlucky result. Advice something, please...
Regards. Igor.

Igor,
Since you've encountered undocumented errors, your repository upgrade has failed. You'll want to leave the repository as is for troublshooting, if at all possible, and log a TAR with support if you haven't already. They'll ask you to upload your upgrade log file and your upgrade tmp directory.

Uploading document in to SAP R/3 through Portal

Hi,
We are in SAP EP5 SP5. Our requirement is to upload a document from the user into SAP.
Is there anyway we could do this.
We just have Portal Platform, no KM and Unification.

Expecting your thoughts on the same.

Portal 11g Upgrade (11.1.1.6) with SSO (10.1.4.3)

I have just performed a Portal upgrade from 10g to 11g which is integrated with SSO (10.1.4.3) which is hosted on a separate host from portal.
All components start sucessfully but I am getting the following error in my SSO Apache error_log when I attempt to login.
[OSSO] E21: Communication with the SSO server failed. Unable to decrypt url parameter value.
I have raised an SR but I was hoping that someone may have encountered a similar issue.
Upgrade was as follows
In the process of upgrading Oracle Portal to 11g from Portal 10g (10.1.4.2.0).
Current configuration before upgrade is as follows
Infra structure stack
DB- 10.2.0.5 (GITO enabled, GITO version v1.0)
OID / DIP 11.1.1.6
SSO - 10.1.4.3
Mid tier stack
Portal - 10.1.4.2.0
Step 1 - Upgraded Mid tier stack to 11g
Tested all components, SSO login successful.
Step 2 - Upgrade Infra Structure portal schema, upgrade was successful.
Tested all components, now unable to login via SSO, only error detected in error_log of 10.1.4.3 SSO stack.
500 Internal Server Error displayed for address
https;//hostname:port/osso_login_success?urlc=v1.4....
[OSSO] E21: Communication with the SSO server failed. Unable to decrypt url parameter value.
Any help most welcome.

Andrew,
Check out this article on Oracle Support:
Server 500 error Logging into Portal that has been rewired to use an external Webtier [ID 1285901.1]
This article fixed my issue.
It has to do with the fact that the Osso Cookies are encrypted.
If you add this Apache directive to your httpd.conf it's solved:
OssoSecureCookies off
Kind regards,
Rob
