Ultra Search Portlet Configuration Problem

Guten Tag,
we are using OracleAS 10g Rel. 2 Portal. I've registered the Provider for Ultra Search.
Now I understand that I have to add a data source in the OC4J_Portal configuration file "data-sources.xml"
I want to make Ultra Search crawl and search our Portal.
So I need to create a news Instance with the following entries (also for the data-sources.xml):
- username and password are the Oracle Ultra Search instance owner's database user name and password.
where do I find these info? It all has been done automatically by the RepCa when installing the IASPortal... ?- database_host is the host name of the back end database computer.
is this the URL of our portal server (with or without /pls/portal/)?- oracle_port is the port to the user's Oracle Database.
the standard Port of the Oracle Listener (1521)?- oracle_sid is the SID of the user's Oracle Database.
Where do I get the SID of Portal DB after Installation?Thx,
Gerhard

Hi echee!
I don't know what happened in the weekend, but now the Ultra Search portlet doesn't throws any exception.
It seems works correctly.
Maybe the servers was restarted or the sheduled crawler recovered something in the indexed data.
I'm totally surprised.
I checked the log files, but I didn't find any failure message.
Now I must build a new Search Portlet for our portal, and I will contact you, if the problem returns.

Secure functionality Ultra Search Portlet

Hi,
what do I have to do that the "Ultra Search Portlet" supports acl-functionality? If I activate a acl for a data source, then no results are displayed.

Can ultra search portlet search html pages stored outside of portal

I have some html pages stored on my hard drive. I would like to search these from my portal page using the ultrasearch portlet.
Is this possible?
Thanks.

In answer to your question Ultra Search can search content from a number of sources, including websites files on the file system and of course, Portal.
The built in Portal Searching functionality can search files on a filesystem but only by creating URL items where the URL is a file:// URL that points to the file on a filesystem that is local to the Portal repository database.

Ultra Search portlet page results region

Hi all,
Is possible to define the region where the results for an UltraSearch query are displayed?.
By default these results are showed below the query box.
The idea is that the results were shown in a different region.
It's possible?
Thanks in advance,

It might be better if you address this question on the UltraSearch forum at Ultra Search

Customizing L&F of Search Portlet

By default, Portal adds a graphical and text link to "Content Area Home" to its search portlet. The design of our site is not supposed to include links to our content areas, but I haven't found a way to get rid of the link in the search portlet. Can anyone shed some light on how I can custimize the portlet in such a way? Thanks.

Unfortunately, the search Portlets make extensive use of javascript, as do many other parts of the Portal product. There isn't a way of getting the search portlets to work without javascript. Neither is it easy to write your own portlet user interface to Portal Search at present.
If you only wish to search public content you could consider using Oracle Ultra Search to crawl and search Portal. This provides java implemented sample search portlets. These may meet your requirements, or they could be used as the basis for your own Ultra Search portlets that don't use javascript.

Oracle Ultra Search

I don't know how to modify the interface of Ultra Search Portlet, such as words: Search for, Submit. Please help me. Thanks a lot.

look at, for instance, in common_init.jsp.
There is a variable: searchforlabel which is supposed to contain the label.
By default, a resource bundle( class file) is read from a jar file in order to get translations.
You can't modify these class files, except if you use a Java decompiler.
Perhaps the easier way is to set the value for the different variables in the common_init.jsp file, or at least, in the jsp files itself (look at all <labels> tags. and put a hardcoded value).
But I can't help you anymore cause I've never tried.

Problem in installing Ultra Search

Hi all,
We are facing problem while installing Ultra Search for Oracle 9i in Sun Solaris server. The Ultra Search documentation says that the middle tier component includes the following :
1. Ultra Search admininstration tool
2. Ultra Search Java query API
3. Ultra Search Java server page sample query qpplication
But we are unable to see it either in the Oracle Universal Installer's list of installed components or in the database server's file system. The documentation says that for deploying the Ultra Search Administration Tool on a Third Party Middle Tier, the ear file :
$ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/webapp/ultrasearch_admin.ear
should be present. But we cannot find the directory "webapp" at that location.
Does the ear file already get extracted during installation ?
Are the three components listed above shown in the Oracle Universal Installer's list ?
Where can we get the ear file for installation on a Third Party Application Server (iPlanet Server) ?
Can anyone outline the Installation process for Ultra Search ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I assume you are installing Oracle 9iR2.
It seems OUI did not install most of the Ultra Search files. Can you check in your
oraInventory/Components directory for oracle.isearch.*?
You should see
oracle.isearch.client
oracle.isearch.is_common
oracle.isearch.server
If not, these components have not been installed. Please check your installation procedure
to make sure the following are checked:
Oracle Ultra Search Middle-Tier
Oracle Ultra Search Common Files
Oracle Ultra Search Server
follow up with me if you still have problems.

Ultra Search Installation Problems

Hi,
I'm trying to configure ultra search for an existing database running oracle 9.2. i couldn't find the folder oc4j_portal and hence the config file under it. But there is a config file under j2ee/home, so i tried to use that and i fount that there is no file called default-web-site.xml file - i followed the rest of the instructions but the i could get the administration module running. is there any reason why i dont have those files and folder?

Ok I dont think i have the portal installed - is that a requirement for the ultra serach?

Custom Search Portlet not getting the results as expected.

Hi All,
I am using CustomSearchPortlet and I am having following problems. I created an itemtype IT with attributes A1,A2.Then I configured my custom search portlet to search based on A1,A2 attributes only. I have created 3 instances of items Item1,Item2,Item3 based on itemtype IT as follows
Item1(A1=value11,A2=value12)
Item2(A1=value21,A2=cat22)
Item3(A1=value11,A2=value32)
and when I search for value11, I get Item1,Item3 as results. Till here it was nice and behaving as expected. Suddenly after some time, it stopped working and i am not getting the results I used to get before. The only thing i remember to have changed in the meanwhile was to change the A2 attribute values of some of these items. my searchtext remained the same as value11. I was confused as to why the custom search portlet is not getting these results that it was getting before...Thanks for any help in solving this.
Thanks,
Prasanth.

Hi,
If Oracle Text is enabled in your portal, the updated items need to be synchronised before they can be returned in the Search. Since you updated those items, though not changing values for this particular attribute, it will be in the queue for indexing and hence will not be returned until it is indexed.
Thanks.

Oracle Text And Oracle Ultra search

Hi all,
I have a problem. I have some files in the server file system e.g C:/docs. I want to search these MS Office word files in order to see if they contain a word. I tried oracle ultra search but when i put File data source it provides a form file:/// and when i put C:/docs it gives me file://localhost/C:/docs. Can i configure Oracle ultra search to search into the server file system?Where is the directory that oracle ultra search searches a file?
How can index and search the files in the file systems exept oracle ultra search? Can Oracle Text do my job?
Sorry to bother and thank you in advance for your help
Antonis.

Hi,
Searching a word in a document (MS Word) can definitely be done using Oracle Text.
But, you other requirements can make things a bit complicated.
Oracle Text have something called file_datastore, where you need to mention the file_path/s and individual file names too.
Once you mention them, i.e. path and file names, oracle text can read the file , index them and you can query using simple queries.
If the number of files are huge, entering all the file names can be difficult. In that case you can give the following a try.
-- You can use a perl script to read the file name in a directory, put it into a file in a particular format (1 file name per line) and then load that text file into a table using ctxloader.
You can go through the FILE_DATASTORE and CTXLOADER examples from oracle text reference document.

Errors in Ultra Search crawler's log file

Hi all,
I'm trying to configure Ultra Search to do advanced search on a set of attributes of my Portal items.
After executed Synchronization Schedule in the Ultra Search Administration Tool, I found these in the Crawler Progress Summary:
Documents to Fetch 0
Documents Fetched 284
Document Fetch Failures 0
Documents Rejected 0
Documents Discovered 284
Documents Indexed 59
Documents non-indexable 225
Document Conversion Failures 0
The number of non-indexable documents are 225 while the indexed documents are only 59. Then I looked into the Crawler's log file and found that all the almost processes tried to index Portal items got errors. The errors look like:
http://winas10g.tinhvan.com/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwsbr_srchxml.execute?p_action=generate_item&p_thingid=276935&p_siteid=753&p_result_lang=en: Portal server returned an error message.
Documents to process = 0
Error message returned from Portal server is: User-Defined Exception.
The successful processed documents look like:
Documents to process = 186
Processing http://winas10g.tinhvan.com/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwsbr_srchxml.execute?p_action=generate_item&p_thingid=276386&p_siteid=753
Total documents successfully processed = 86
Documents to process = 185
Then when I performed search, I just can find the text that appear directly on Portal pages with URL address format: http://host:port/pls/portal/url/PAGE/pagegroup_name/page_name.
Is there any error with my Utra Search configuration here? How can I index all the Portal items along with their attributes?
Thanks,
Vietdt

Liya
The log file for the crawler schedule should be explicitly listed in the information for the schedule. Please check the information for that schedule.
This log file will be located in the log directory that you've specified in the "crawler" tab.
Please locate the log file and let us know what you see in that.
thanks

Audio Configuration problem detected after install

During the download of the new ITunes version I had a major power failure. I went back and completed the download and after the installation I got an error message that ITunes could not be opened due to an audio configuration problem detected. I went to the Apple site and downloaded a new version from scratch and after the install I got the same audio error. Any Suggestions?

Perhaps this Apple KnowledgeBase article will help:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes has detected an audio configuration problem
Hope that helps.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

How to change the view of the basic search portlet

Hi,
I want to change the view of the basic search portlet. To be more precise, I just want a text box and a Go button in it. Cananybody advise on how to do this?
Regards,
Priya

Indeed the 'Basic Search Box' item is what you want to use. You can choose what label you want or an icon if desired.
As mentioned in a previous reply, you need to edit the properties of the Page Group where you want to add the item and add the 'Basic Search box' to the list of available items that a user can add to the page group.
Navigator -> Properties (for the desired page group) -> Configure Tab -> Edit link in the 'Content Type and Classification' section -> Item Types section add the 'Basic Search Box'.
Now in a page in that page group, add an item, and from the list of 'Built-In Navigation Item Types' you will see the 'Basic Search Box'.
