Upgrading from Portal 6.x to 6.1

Hello,
We are upgrading our portal form 6.0 SP1 to 6.1 MP1 (of course we started this before 6.5 was released).
One of the major differences is the search - at least architecture. But for the end user - will anything be noticed.
For those who did upgrade - what sort of tests did you run on the search to check its ability pre and post migration?
Any general test plans floating out there?
Suggestions welcomed!
Thanks,
V

The end user won't notice any difference at all.
For testing you'll want to just make sure you get some results back. So look for regular KD files, collab, publisher, etc.
You may find that publisher files don't come back - in which case you can try republishing them.
Be sure to check the cluster manager utility to ensure you are in compliance with the recommended cache sizes. This isn't included in the documentation (at least I didn't find it) but should definitely be looked into.
Be sure to get your license files prepared (days) ahead of time.
Finally be sure to check all of your snapshot query portlets. We found that a number of ours failed to display results despite showing up in the snapshot preview. In this case just deleting and recreating the corresponding portlet objects worked to fix this.
Good luck, its not that painful.

  • How do I upgrade from Portal 4.0 to Portal 8.1?

    I want to make sure that what I believe is really true.
    Is it ture that in order to upgrade from Portal 4.0 to Portal 8.1, I must first
    upgrade to Portal 7.0?

    Mike,
    The upgrade tools provided by BEA are from one release back, which means they
    work against WLP7, so if you are going to use these upgrade tools you would need
    to go from WLP4 to WLP7 and then to 8.1.

  • «Define your omniportlet» after upgrading from portal 10.1.4.0 to 10.1.4.2

    Hi every body,
    I just upgraded my portal from the version 10.1.4.0 to the version 10.1.4.2.
    But i have this error on my pages: «Define your omniportlet».
    It looks like i lost the definition of the omniportlets.
    Does anyone know what is going on?
    Thank you

    I think your problem is a known issue. As a hint, you would be seeing some of the following:
    * Portal is setup with "External SSL with Non-SSL Within Oracle Application Server".
    * useScheme and usePort parameters are missing in the OmniPortlet web.xml file.
    * Omniportlet test page url does not match what is defined in the Omniportlet definition.
    Please check out the following note on the details and how to fix it.
    Doc ID: 740483.1
    hope that helps..

  • Upgrading from Portal NW 701 to NW 731

    Hello Experts,
    We have  system at NW 701 Now we need to upgrade NW to release 731.
    We have installated components: ESS, MSS , LSO, E-Recruiting.
    We have SAP ECC 6.0.
    The applications ESS & MSS are using the BP 1.41 (Webdynpro Java)
    Erecruiting use appplications Webdynpro ABAP.
    LSO use applications BSP.
    I am checking the following link:
    http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/How+to+determine+the+correct+component+combination+in+ESS+WD+JAVA
    My question is:
    My applications ESS, MSS, ERC, LSO not will work if we update portal nw 701 to 731?
    Thanks

    Your old (600) WDJ components won't run on NW731. The newer (63x) WDJ components won't work together with your backend (600) version. You can have a separate NW701 AS JAVA to host the old WDJ components or else start migrating from WDJ to WDA.

  • Is it Possible to Exclude Documents from Portal Export ?

    Hello,
    In preparation for upgrading from Portal 9.0.4.3 (Release 1) to the latest portal version, we need to Export from a PROD Portal instance and import into a TEST portal instance. I plan to use separate transport sets for a Pagegroup and Providers. The Pagegroup has ~50 GB of documents in it.
    The problem is that I don't have the Disk space on the PROD machine to export to the transport tables or on the TEST machine for the import or the merge. Is there some way to exclude the Documents (BLOBS in WWDOC_DOCUMENT$) from an export? I do want export/import all of the pages in the pagegroup.
    Thanks,
    Trenton

    Did you ever get an answer to this, or how did you resolve it?
    Thanks,

    cn=XXX information is missing for the SSO Server (orasso) when going to http://servername:7777/pls/orasso/orasso.home. Is that causing the problem? If so, how can I resolve it?

    Background of Upgrade*
    Following errors were reported during upgrades but we continued upgrade since they could not be fixed. There are several Invalid objects in the DB that starts with OKC but they still remain even after I tried to recompile them through 'adadmin' or through SQL prompt or 'frmcmp' command (as stated below).
    frmcmp module=%AU_TOP%/resource/OKEKAULN.pll userid=APPS/APPS output_file=%AU_TOP%/resource/OKEKAULN.plx module_type=library batch=no compile_all=special
    I beleive OKC schema is related to 'Oracle Contracts' module.
    The following Oracle Forms objects did not generate successfully:
    au resource OKEKAULN.pll
    au resource OKEDTSFM.pll
    au resource OKEKAUWB.pll
    au resource OKLCSAST.pll

    au resource OKSAUBLG.pll
    An error occurred while generating Oracle Forms library files.

    Thanks for replying. I have already applied the mega patch 9239090 to upgrade to 12.1.3. The metalink notes you have given refers to patches released prior to patch 9239090. How to check whether the new patch will not overwrite the one I have already applied and will not conflict with it? Will it be automatically taken care by 'adpatch' utility?adpatch should take care of that and it should not overwrite any file if the file version you have is higher than the one delivered by the patch.
    Thanks,

  • Steps to upgrade from Weblogic Portal 8.1 to Webcenter Portal 11.1.1.6

    Currently I'm involved in consulting for a client who has Weblogic Portal (WLP) 8.1. I'm trying to find documentation for upgrade from WLP 8.1 to Webcenter 11.1.1.6.
    I found the below link but the starting point for upgrade is Oracle WebCenter 10g (10.1.3)
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e22628/wcmap.htm
    I'm not clear if I should migrate from WLP 8.1 to WLP 10.3.x and then to Webcenter or direct migration from WLP 8.1 to Webcenter is possible ?
    Any pointers / links / case study would be helpful.
    Thanks for the helping soul in advance.

    Thank you jiri for the quick response.
    Regarding your comment 'upgrade from WLP 8.1 to WLP 10.3.5 is not for free', I did some search and found that the documentation is available for upgrading from 8.1 to 10.3.4 as below :
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26806_01/wlp.1034/e14253/upgrade_process.htm
    Also when I went to the 10.3.5 documentation library (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35968_01/index.htm), I found the below link (where the upgrade process points 8.1 to 10.3.4 instead of 8.1 to *10.3.5*)
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26806_01/wlp.1034/e14253/toc.htm
    My understanding (after reading the documentation + your comment) is that we can upgrade from 8.1 to 10.3.4 but to upgrade to 10.3.5 we need to pay Oracle. Could you point me to a link which has that information ?
    Thank you for your help.

  • WebDynpro ABAP application issue from Portal after ECC 6 upgrade to SP14

    Hi,
       We have recently upgraded the Kernel, ABAP and Java stack of ECC 6.0 system to SP14. After the upgrade most of the WebDynpro ABAP applications doesn't load and just flickers when run from Portal as a WebDynpro iView, but they run perfectly fine when accessed directly using URL. These were running fine prior to the upgrade. Can someone suggest what can be going wrong.
       Will reward points for helpful answer.
    Regards
    Mukesh

    Hi Mukesh,
    As Gajendra said, restarting the service in SICF sometimes works for us, but not always.  We have also had to deactivate the entire Webdynpro node, and then reactivate it and all of the services below it.
    Obviously something changed in the SP, given that we now have to do this every time we create a new WDA application.
    Cheers,
    John

  • Portal Upgrade from EP6.0sp10 to EP6.0sp18

    Hi All,
      I am totally new to portal upgrade.we have current version of portal as follows:
    portal version is: 6.0.10.2.0
    KMC version is   : 6.0.10.1.0 (NW04 SPS10 Patch 1)
    Trex Version     : 6.1.10.01 
    1. I am little confuse about whats the difference between Upgrading from EP6.0sp10 to "<b>EP6.0sp18/ NW04sp18</b>".Is the process for doing above is  same or different.
    2. I heard from SAP that TREX must  be upgraded first before KMC and Portal.Is it true? whats is reason for that
    ?what should be latest SP and patch for TREX?any documents?
    3. Is there any specific sequence to upgrade like TREX->WAS>portal>KMC?
    4. What about customisations objects,will that be seriously affected after upgrade?How to prevent that?
    can anybody give the Basic knowledge of upgrade and process flow.
    Thanks in Advance.Help will be greatly appreciated.
    Amit

    Hi Amit,
    EP6 SP18 ist the actual Service Pack for Enterprise Portal. NW04 SPS(!) 18 is the complete Service Pack Stack for the NetWeaver platform. So if you want SP18 for your portal installation, you should get the whole NetWeaver platform in use for that to SPS18 (as you wrote, for EP this is normally WAS, EP, KM, TREX, eventually NWDS).
    TREX normally has the same counting as the rest, but in fact at the moment there is no SP18 for TREX, but it is renumbered again. The actual version reads TREX 6.1 Patch 26.
    Sequence is WAS -> portal -> KMC -> TREX. Anyhow, you should not await a stable version if using mixed SPs, especially if mixing 10 with 18 So get all in line and then restart working with your installation.
    As you normally shouldn't have customized standard objects but copied them into your own namespace and worked on these, there shouldn't be a problem. If you haven't gone this way, with such an update you will learn how urgent it is to keep this in mind --- never change standard objects...
    Hope it helps

  • Portal Upgrade from Nw04 6.0 to Nw04s 7.0

    Hi all,
    I’m trying to perform the portal upgrade from version 6.0 Nw04 SP 19 to version 7.0 Nw04s.
    During the preparation I obtain the following error:
    #Java###The software component com.wilytech.jmxservice/wilytech.com could not be read from the BC_COMPVERS table; the table schema may be outdated. Fix it and then repeat the phase from the beginning.##
    I have implemented note n 873624 in order to align the keyname and the keyvendor in sap manifest.mf but with no luck, the detect start release component fails with the same error.
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks and regards

    Hi,
    You can upgrade your portal with all usages that you have installed. You need to check upgrade guide as well.
    You need to check if there is any custom development on the portal to migrate it to new version.
    Thanks

    We are planning to upgrade portal from CE7.2 to 7.31 or higher.

    Now I wan to know after upgrade what will be the effect/issues on below mentioned custom application areas.
    1. Portal Branding (theme)
    2. CAF components (EJB)
    3. Portal custom DB table.
    4. BPM applications
    5. Service Registry
    6. Web services
    Please let me know your inputs on this.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sambaran Chakraborty

    Hi,
    Of course upgrade from CE 7.11 to CE 7.2 IS POSSIBLE. We are doing this in our landscape.
    Please refer to the following guide:
    Update Guide CE 7.2 (Update from CE 7.1/CE 7.1 EHP1) - SP<nn>
    from:
    service.sap.com/instguidesnwce72 --> Update --> SP<nn>.
    Only this one guide is sufficient. This upgrade is just like SPS update.

  • Weblogic Portal ( Server ) upgrade from 10.0 MP1 to 10.3.5

    HI,
    We are currently attempting to upgrade WebLogic Portal Server in development environment and having problems when i run the installer. ( WLS1035_upgrade_generic.jar ).
    I'm attempting this upgrade in Windows 7 professional environment ( 64 bit )  and it is a Windows VM with in a MAC OS X.
    Problem  : At the screen where it asks to Choose Middleware Home Type  ---> click next   --->  it shows error message saying Product is not Installed.
    Environment   :    Upgrade of WebLogic 10.0 MP1 portal server ( JDK 1.5_30 )  on a Windows Virtual Machine running using Parallels Desktop software
    Existing attempts  :    
    I went through the forums and tried
    -  Oracle's Minimum Technical Requirements says that i need to have JDK 1.6_24 and have installed JDK  1.6.0_35. ( jdk-6u35-windows-x64.exe ) .
       I'm currently  running the setup from command prompt using this version of Java.
    -  Tried using BEA WebLogic smart upgrade. But it is not recognising our Oracle Support Login  credentials. I tried doing this in offline mode having the above .jar and .zip  file patch in the correct directory but its not recognising.
    Weblogic home directory is c:\bea and it has got all the directories inside it  -   i don't understand the reason why installer is not able to identify the existing WLS installation.
    I would appreciate help around this as i'm not sure what else to try ?
    Cheers,

    I am not sure what you are doing is supported. You cannot upgrade a 10.0 to a 10.3.5 the way you are trying. The updater may be used to upgrade froma 10.3.x to 10.3.5 i believe. Check this out Upgrading WebLogic Server 9.x or 10.0 Application Environments to 10.3.5

  • Upgrading from BEA Weblogic portal 8.1.5 to BEA Weblogic Portal 10.3

    We are upgrading from BEA Weblogic portal 8.1.5 to BEA Weblogic Portal 10.3. We just took over the project from some other vendor since last 9 months. At some of the places in the code, we are using internal APIs of Weblogic Server which should not have been used at the first place.
    As weblogic has changed the version and internal structure as well as the classes also, We are facing problems in terms of compilation of the code itself.
    The class "ServletRequestImpl" is giving us issues.
    Has anybody faced the similar issues, if yes, please let me know.

    Andy-
    Since the Struts portlet support requires that struts app be converted to a module,
    alternate message resources need to be accessed by modifying the bundle name by
    appending the module name, since Struts doesn't automatically propogate the alternate
    resources from the ServletContext to the Request when a module is selected.
    For instance, in suppose your struts application module is /struts/myExample.
    To access the alternate bundle from within that module, you'll need to specify
    the bundle as alternate/struts/myExample.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get the struts-example webapp from Struts 1.1 RC1 working
    under
    Weblogic Portal 8.1 with the JSR 168 and Struts support patch.
    I am having problems with the message bundle properties files ApplicationResources.properties
    and AlternateApplicationResources.properties as neither of these files
    are being
    picked up.
    These files are located in org/apache/struts/webapp/example in WEB-INF/src
    and
    WEB-INF/classes of my webapp (i.e. <WEBAPP>/WEB-INF - my struts-example
    resides
    in <WEBAPP>/struts-example). I've also tried adding <init-param>'s to
    the <WEB-APP>/WEB-INF/web.xml
    file for the action servlet as follows:
    <servlet> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> ... <init-param> <param-name>application</param-name>
    <param-value>org.apache.struts.webapp.example.ApplicationResources</param-value>
    </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>alternate</param-name> <param-value>org.apache.struts.webapp.example.AlternateApplicationResources</param-value>
    </init-param> </servlet>
    When I use the logon action as the starting action for the portlet, I
    get:
    Error opening /struts-example/logon.jsp. The source of this error is
    javax.servlet.ServletException:
    Cannot find message resources under key alternate at weblogic.servlet.jsp.PageContextImpl.handlePageException...
    Any help would be appreciated.
