Top level configuration

Hello,
I am newbie in the portal admninistration and I'd like to reorganize the top level navigation in the portal (containing for example the "Portal content" thumbnail + my custom roles).
I'd like to sort the 1st level by alphabetical order.
How can I do that?
Regards

Here is the link for sorting the navigation:

Hi,
We have faced a similar problem earlier, one of the developers changed the property to 0. Luckily for us, one of the user id has got Content Administrator as the first tab, so we could change the iview template and got the TLN. Check this option.
The following is a theoritical idea only, i have not implemented this
Download "com.sap.portal.navigation.toplevel.par.bak" and change the code. Check out this link
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/fd515a2aa95277e10000000a1553f7/content.htm
You have to change the code as
levels=2;
before this line
if(levels>0)
{ %>
Take a backup of the existing TLN par and upload the edited one with the same name. Then try login and see whether you are able to get the contents, update the property back to 2.
Note : try to upload the necessary jar files in NWDS.

Agents configuration for the top level Organization

I was experimenting with this feature and was wondering if it works. I have an IIS 6.0 policy agent installed and it is working correctly. I added a new agent for the top level org and set the name, password to the amldapuser password, and agentRootURL key value. I then edited the AMAgent.properties file of the IIS 6.0 policy agent and changed the com.sun.am.policy.am.username to the one I created. Upon restart the policy agent could not authenticate. I then set the am.password the clear text password and got the same result. Has anyone got this to work?

Hi ,
I've Been Following this forum for quite a long time,This has been a good resource for the people working on Identiry Management. A problem has been hindering me from completing the authentication part in my project.
I've configured the Policy Agent in AMAgent.property file as URL_POLICY mode,which
would redirect the user to the User Home Page mentioned in the
registration page of Identity server. what other configurations need to be changed to make this work.
Thanx,

DNS Server does not resolve new generic Top Level Domain names- CNR configuration issue?

Hi all,
I am not sure if this is the correct community to post this question, but I will give it a try. I noticed that the users of my network cannot resolve web sites using new top level domain names, like ".education", ".international", etc. I have an internal DNS server made by Infoblox and a Cisco CNR v6.3.3.1 as an external DNS server. Infoblox uses CNR as its forwarder and CNR uses the root DNS servers for queries.
I would think that CNR was the problem because it is an obsolete product but after speaking with a fellow engineer at another organization where they still use an older version of CNR than mine, they have no problems at all. So now I am thinking it is a setting either on Infoblox, or on CNR I need to change. I can see Infoblox is forwarding the requests to CNR but that's about it. I am not sure if CNR is discarding the request. When I do an nslookup from a PC in my network it does not matter if I set my DNS server to be the Infoblox or the CNR. Neither resolves the URL.
Then again, no matter what I lookup using the CNR as my DNS, I only get a response with the root DNS names and IPs!
Any help is appreciated!

Hi Constantinos,
Have you taken a look at the infoblox community site? We've just reposted your question there and alerted some internal SMEs that should provide a solution soon.

How to create a multi-level configuration sales order?

Hi,
    My client use configurable material to sell computers. And the production mode is MTO. One sales order item correspond with a production order
    Now my client also sell array which consist of two computers, two storage, one UPS power etc. That means I must realize multi-level configuration. First, choose the computer type. Second, based on the choosed computer in first step, choose the cpu, disk and so on. And then based on the sales order item, there must be several production order related to the same sales order item.
    Now I have semi-finished product B1,B2--computer. Class type is 300. Many characteristics is allocated to the class. B type material has the BOM which consist of cpu,disk etc.
    Then I created the finished product A--array. Class type is 300. Allocated characteristics is the B1,B2. A has the BOM which consist of B1,B2 etc.
    When I create sales order, I can only config the first level,choose computers for A, can not choose cpu,disk for computers.
    So, how can I find a solution for this scenario?
    Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Waza
1. Does the Sales order BOM explode in the sales order?
No. Just one top item would be ok for my client.
2. Why do thy want this in the sales order? They can explode the BOM in the production order, do they then need pricing at the component level?
They do not need pricing at the component level. Exploding the BOM in the production order is acceptable. But how can I config the configurable material in components of production order?
I tried collective order, but the second level of configurable material can not generate production order. I just make use of special procurement 52 in MRP2 of top finished product. Is there something I missed?
Thanks again.

Unable to set a top-level property object

Hey guys
I've made a little sequence to fetch data from a XML file. In that XML file, there is some informations (entries) (IP addresses, port numbers, etc) about 4 different types of devices(sections are the devices names). The first section of the XML tells me the NAMES of the devices I have to configure. The type of each device is located in the entries of each device. Each device has its own information and I can have more than one device of a type. In teststand, I've created custom data types (containers with empty fields) for each type of device I need.
I want to dynamically create the devices that the XML file tells me to configure as fileglobal variables and populate them with their own config informations (entries of the XML file). I'm creating new fileglobal of the type I want using PropertyObject step and I'm creating an alias of that fileglobal that I'm passing in parameter to a subsequence who's getting infos from XML. Here, everything is OK.
The problem occurs when I want to configure 2 or more objects of the same type. At the SetProperty step (where i'm creating the fileglobal variable) teststand gives me the error:
"Unable to set a top-level property object to another object. Error accessing item 'Parameters.DeviceToInitStruct'."
Is there any ways to avoid that problem and creating to variable of the same type ?
thanks

Hi
I finally got rid of that problem.
Instead of using a PropertyObject.Clone step, I used a statement who's just copy the "MasterObject" into a "CloneObject" and i'm working with that copy. So the sequence can now create devices of the same type without any conflict with the first device.
i'll post here a short example to show how i did... maybe it'll be useful for someone...

Top Level Navigation - Design bar borders

SAP EP 6.0 SP9 on NW04
We're using the top level navigation iview (TLN) out-of-the box and have configured the look and feel of TLN using the Theme Editor so that it follows the customer's corporate identity.
However, we cannot remove the two white vertical borders around the design bar in top level navigation or change the color to the same color as the top level navigation. It is only possible for us to change the background color of the design bar but not the color of the design bar border. The marketing department thinks this is a huge issue, which must be fixed.
We're almost certain that the problem cannot be solved by configuring the Theme Editor.
Does anybody know whether it is easy to modify the code or css files to change the white borders of the design bar? Any idea of what is the best approach?
Best regards
Peter
Can

Hi,
I have similar problem but there is no "Display of Design Bar Container" option in the Top Level Navigation section of the Theme editor.
Thanks,

Portal Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource...

We installed WebLogic Portal. We were able to bring up the webpage while we were configured on port 80. As soon as we wired the portal for port 443, it would not display page. Error: Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource...
We are on a VM with Redhat Linux 5. Oracle Weblogic portal 10.3.5
Has anyone had this issue in the past and was able to resolve it?

Did you upgrade your Portal to 10.1.4? Are you using the Web Cache port # or the HTTP Server port #? You can get this error message if you use the HTTP Server port # on Portal 10.1.4.

Opening a Remote Panel of the Top Level vi for an executable

Hello Everyone
I was wondering how you would open up a remote panel for the top-level vi in an executable?
I have created a LabVIEW application and have tested opening the remote panel when it is running in the full labview development suite - this all works fine. I simply go operate>connect to remote panel and enter the server address, the port (8000) and the vi name using the path "My Project.lvproh/My Computer/main.vi" format.
However, if I then build this application into an executable I do not seem to be able to open a remote panel - it might be that I am just entering the VI name incorrectly.
with VI name = "main.vi" or with VI name = "C:\builds\main.exe\main.vi" and the exe. running I get the error:
Connecting to remote panel server...
Requested VI is not loaded into memory on the server computer
However I am not sure how else I would enter it.
The main.ini has the following configuration:
server.app.propertiesEnabled=True
server.ole.enabled=True
server.tcp.acl="0800000008000000"
server.tcp.enabled=True
server.tcp.paranoid=True
server.tcp.port=6363
server.tcp.serviceName=""
server.vi.access=""
server.vi.callsEnabled=True
server.vi.propertiesEnabled=True
WebServer.Enabled=True
WebServer.TcpAccess="c+*"
WebServer.ViAccess="+*"
DebugServerEnabled=True
DebugServerWaitOnLaunch=False
Both machines have LabVIEW 2011 Profesional Development System SP1 on so I do not think it is a limited remote access licence issue.
Any suggestions as to where I am going wrong would be much appreciated.
Cheers
John
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It appears that you can infact use remote panels within an executable.
The problem I had was that I had left the web server port for the remote panels the same as the LabVIEW development environment. That meant that the main LabVIEW web server was getting in the way of the web server that was associated with my built application.
With the application's web server on a different port and the VI in memory (and the file in a library/directory external to the exe if it is not the top level VI), you just need to specify the VI name such as main.vi .
Solved!

Problem with Back button in Top Level Navigation

Hi all,
We are facing a minor problem with the Back button in the Top Level Navigation in Portal. This button is present under the Roles and Worksets menu along with the History, Forward, and Add to Portal Favorites links.
The problem is faced when we have some worksets under a single role. While browsing accross these worksets by randomly clicking on them, we wish to use the Back button as well to go back to the previous workset. But when we use the Back button, the Detailed Navigation panel in the last workset is not retrieved.
I will explain with the System Administration Role. I open the worksets under this role in the following manner:
First I open Transport;
Next I open Portal Display;
Next I open System Configuration;
Now I wish to go back to Portal Display workset by clicking on the Back button. But when I do this, although the Portal Display workset opens up, but I cannot see the Detailed Navigation Panel. See the screenshot below:

Please help me in solving this issue.

I think I have found a resolution, although not very pleasant:

Cannot Create Folder at Top Level of Documents Library

Operating System: Windows 7 Enterprise, 32-Bit
Environment: Windows 2003 domain
Security: Local Machine admin, and domain admin
Documents Library is redirected via Group Policy to
\\servername\home\username
Navigating to Libraries\Documents, there is no "New Folder" button available at that top level of the library. When using File menu => New => Folder, I get "Unable to create the folder 'New Folder' File system error (512)."
Looked that one up using Google, er, I mean Bing, and found articles about it being an old DOS\Win95 issue with the 512 max limit on the root drive. Am familiar with that problem, and this ain't it. Less than 30 folders at the root level, and none more
than 20 characters long.
From inside an Application, if I try to save to my Library\Documents folder, I cannot save a file to the root level. I get "To save here, you must first include a folder in the Library."
At this point where I am looking to save a file, I also cannot type a folder name for navigation, as I am used to doing with previous OS's. So in my address area, I have Libraries\Documents, then I have a subfolder called "important." If I type
the word "Important," expect the system fo navigate down into that folder. Instead I get "To save here, you must first include a folder in the Library." If I type "Important\" I still get the same error.
Navigating to \\servername\home\username, I am able to create a New Folder at the top level from a Windows Explorer window, or from inside an application such as Word.
Mapping a drive letter to \\servername\home\username also will allow me to create a New Folder at the top level, from a Windows Explorer Window, or from inside an application.
From a command prompt, I am able to get to the drive letter and create a new folder.
With the drive letter mapped, going back to Libraries\Documents, I am still unable to create a new folder that way.
I read these two threads, both of which sort of die off with no real answers. So I've started my own.

Any Help?

Hi,
Regarding your problem, it seems that the user didn’t have appropriate permissions to create folders. To get it work, NTFS and Share permissions must be configured
appropriately.
Here are the Share and NTFS Permissions needed on the File Server Shares and the steps to do so:
NOTE: The $ symbol should be used to hide the existence of the share.
User Home Share Configuration:
Here are the Share and NTFS Permissions needed for Home Directories:
a. The Share permissions (Sharing Tab): Share Named: <HOME>$
Administrators: Full Control
System: Full Control
Authenticated Users: Full Control
b. NTFS Folder Permissions (Security Tab): Turn off inheritance on the Folder named <HOME>, and copy the permissions. (Uncheck "Allow inheritable permissions
to
propagate to this object")
Administrators: Full Control
System: Full Control
Creator Owner: Full Control
Authenticated Users: Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read
c. On the NTFS Folder Permissions Click the Advanced Button. Then highlight Authenticated Users, Select View/Edit
d. On the Permissions Entry for <HOME>, "the Apply onto" change to: "This folder
only"
e. Click OK
f. Click OK again.
More reference, please read the following document:
Windows Server 2008 Share/NTFS permissions on home
directories/folders
Redirect the Documents folder to a network share

Problem with WPC and Top Level Navigation

Hi all...
I have one problem. I'm using WPC and my role name is shown in Top Level Navigation (TLN).
For example:
Role name: Test
navigation nodes: company, About Us, Finnancial, News...
"Test" role is shown on TLN first level and the first level of navigation node is shown on TLN second level.
How can I remove the role name from TLN first level? I already changed the entry point parameter to "No" however this case the navigation node disappear from TLN.
tks

Praveen,
How can I set the "No" Entry Point parameter to my navigation nodes??
In my role configuration I only changed the External Connector and Entry Point Parameters.
Where can I set up the No entry point parameter for my navigation nodes?

Top level navigation to be re organized to come in one page

Dear SDN,
I have one requirement. I want to change the Portal Theme in such a way that Top level navigation to be re organized to come in one page istead of scrolling left or right. Suppose the user having more than 20 roles then he shouldnt be scrolling more times to left or right for the roles, thats why we want that in one page.
Can anybody please help me to solve this. Is there any way where we can set all roles visible in one page??
Thanks & Regards,
Nikesh Shah.

I have given you the link above.
You should read it
There is a step wise procedure for how can you set Navigation Level to 0.
I. Configure Top-Level Navigation
       1.      In the Portal Catalog choose Portal Users-> Standard Portal Users. This folder contains the Default Framework Page.
       2.      Right-click Default Framework Page and choose Open ->Object.
       3.      From the Page Content List, select the Top-Level Navigation iView and click Properties.
       4.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Number of Display Levels property and enter the value 0, 1, or 2, depending on how many navigation levels, if any, you want for top-level navigation.
Choosing 0 removes top-level navigation and displays your navigation structure in the Detailed Navigation iView.
       5.      Click Save.
II. Configure Detailed Navigation
       1.      From the Page Content List of the Default Framework Page, select Desktop Innerpage and click Open.
       2.      From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage select the Detailed Navigation iView and click Properties.
       3.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Start at Level property and assign a value that is one higherthan the value of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure l. Configure Top-Level Navigation. For example, if top-level navigation is configured for one level, the detailed navigation begins on the second level, that is with the value 2.
Detailed navigation is not automatically synchronized with top-level navigation; the values that you enter for top-level and detailed navigation must agree. For example, if you enter the value 1 for top-level navigation, while detailed navigation still has the value 3, one level is left out, creating a gap.
       4.      Click Save.
III. Configure the Content Area
       1.      From the Page Content List of the Desktop Innerpage, select the Content Area iView and click Properties.
       2.      In the Navigation property category, scroll to the Number of Display Levels in TLN property and enter the same value as that of the Number of Display Levels property in procedure I. Configure Top-Level Navigation.
       3.      Click Save.
Thanks...

Top level navigation problem anonymous portal

Hi everybody,
We have an anonymous portal with named anonymous users.
When you log on in the portal with a normal user, the top level navigation works fine and all the content is displayed.
When you log on in the portal with an anonymous user, all the content is displayed, the top level navigation works.
But when you press e.g.: the second tab in the top level navigation, you can see the right content, but the tab is not highlighted. In the normal portal the tab is highlighted. The auth scheme of my top level navigation iview is set to anonymous.
Did I forgot to set a standard sap iview to anonymous or something?
Kind regards,
David De Kerpel

Hi,
You have the following options to solve this problem as suggested by SAP:
1. Disable the short urls feature. Go to System Administration --> Navigation --> Short URLs, set the "Use short URLs" to false, save the configuration and restart the J2EE Engine.
2. Log in as a standard user (not anonymous) and navigate to all iViews/pages that will be viewed by anonymous. Navigating to an iView/page or a navigation node means that you can see a link to it in the TLN or DTN.
3. Deploy the PAR file attached in the SAP Note 913367, which fixes the problem.

Top Level Navigation Manipulation in "Hosted Portal"

We are in a position where we have to begin hosting additional content in our portal from a portal that is being decommissioned.
The problem is we need to keep it seperate from the existing content from a user access point of view.
While users can have access to roles from the existing content and from the soon to be "hosted" content, they have not to be seen in the portal at the same time.
For example if the user accesses the portal with URL 1 they only see tabs in the top level navigation for the current content but if they access using URL 2 they only see tabs in the top level navigation for the "hosted" content.
I know we can control most of the issues such hosting raises using URL Aliases in our Desktop Rules to display different desktops, but wanted to know if anyone knows of a simple way that this can be enforced in the standard top level navigation iView via either configuration or simple code change to prevent us having to develop our own TLN to cope with this.
We are currently on EP7.0 SP13
Thanks (and of course points) for any help you can offer.

Hi Micheal,
Thanks for your suggestions.
We have managed to get halfway to our required solution with a very simple change to a copy of the standard top level navigation whereby we only process the PrintNavNodes method for iterations of the "initialNodes" which have the required node names - e.g.
private void PrintNavNodes(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
for(Iterator it = initialNodes.iterator(); it.hasNext();) {
INavigationNode initialNode = (INavigationNode)it.next();
// Start of Change - Portal Share Project
String nodeName = initialNode.getName();
if ( nodeName.endsWith("ccmaint_user") || nodeName.endsWith("ccmaint_supervisor") ) {
// End of Change - Portal Share Project
firstContent = PrintNode(initialNode, request, response, 0);
try {
This effectively filters out the unwanted tabs in the desktop where this amended TLN is used.
This works fine where the tabs you want to see have sort priority putting them at the front of the list but leads to problems when used for the converse set of content as the desktop is still referring to the full "initialNodes" list and so while filtering at this level does render the TLN as required, it becomes unusable as the tab positions are still considered to be as they would be if you had not filtered any.
For example:
We have 5 tabs in total. For URL 1 we wish to show only tabs 1 & 2. For URL 2 we want tabs 3, 4 & 5.
Using this method for URL 1 we are fine as Tabs 1 & 2 are in the correct positions but for URL 2 when the tabs are rendered they appear in positions 1, 2 & 3 as required but act somewhat as though they are still in positions 3, 4 & 5 (e.g. Select the first tab and the 3rd is highlighted and a page error occurs - "'children' is null or not an object").
Not only this but the Inner Page still displays the content from the filtered tab 1 as opposed to tab 3.
Can anyone advise a way we can get round these issues?
Thanks
Ian.
P.S. Please excuse my naïvety in this area.
