Viewing Actuate Active Portal as a portlet in Weblogic

Hi
I need to be able to have a webpage with a portlet on it within which you can
see Acutate Active Portal.
I'm not overly experienced in either Active Portal or Weblogic, but had hoped
using the ActuatePortlets.war file that is supplied with AP (I assume to use with
IBM's Websphere,) would also work for Weblogic if I imported it into my Weblogic
Workshop project and dragged it over into my portal application - allowing it
to become a portlet.
I can't get this to work, the program asks: "Do you want to create a portlet out
of this resource?" I click yes and it seems to go in and builds fine. However
when trying to run the page, it either hangs there forever or the portlet simply
dosen't show up.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks

You can certainly embed Content Services in an iFrame - just use the URL http://host:port/content/app/explorerPage.jspx
Alternately you can write a portlet that calls the Content Services web service APIs and exposes the functionality that you need.

Announcing: Developing JSF Portlets with WebLogic Portal Whitepaper

Just Released: Developing JSF Portlets with WebLogic Portal Whitepaper
A supplemental developer's guide has been published to help guide WLP 10.x customers that wish to use JSF as the web framework for building portlets on WebLogic Portal. This is a sizable document (150 pages) that covers a large number of topics. It also coaches developers on best practices and common pitfalls.
Important: It also clarifies the supported configuration of JSF within Portal Web Projects. Workshop for WebLogic by default configures a web project in a configuration that is not supported by WebLogic Portal. The guide explains how to address this:
* Change from the unsupported MyFaces JSF implementation to the supported Sun Reference Implementation (RI)
* Change from the unsupported "client" STATE_SAVING_METHOD to the supported "server"
The guide can be downloaded here:

Hi Peter!
First, I wish to thank you for the great work.
We followed your whitepaper and managed to deploy a JSF portlet on WLS.
But we are not able to register it (consume it) as remote portlet in Oracle Portal 10.1.4. The error log is as follows:

Viewing an HTML file in a portlet &

Dear reader:
I need to view an HTML file in a portlet according to a specified parameter passed via URL address, can i use url.display_url or not, and how? and if not what should i use?
and related to that how can i call a portlet (or a page published as portlet)to override an existing one (programatically)?
thank you for your time.

Check out the multi page portlet in the February PDK for an example of how to display a second portlet in place of the first portlet. As for your first question, please try posting your question to the Oracle Portal Development Kit (PDK) forum, where you'll find the expertise you require.

Difference between refresh of Report in Active Viewer and Active Studio BAM

We use the Oracle SOA Suite with BAM (on Linux) 10.3.2.0.
I have 2 questions:
1. We have made a report with several items and in Active Studio --> Select Report --> Edit mode --> I see the correct values for my report. When I open my report in Active Viewer I see data from yesterday. The report is not being refreshed. How can I change this, what is causing this difference between Active Viewer and Active Studio in Edit mode??
2. One of my items in my report always gives the message: opening (only in Active Viewer, in Active Studio/edit mode I can see the correct data).

Is your popup blocker turned off? I can only imaging that the popup blocker may be keeping the Live Data window from appearing and updating the dashboard. Active Studio doesn't do a Live update, but an update on report load.

Error deploying ALBPM portlets in WebLogic Portal

Can my employer view my activity (games, twitter usage, etc.) on my personal phone if I use the Citrix Receiver app to access corporate emails?

No, they cannot see this through Citrix. Citrix is only a 'window' for you to look into the company applications. You do not transfer info from the phone related to other activities.

Query- IPC using JSF Portlets in WebLogic Portal

The question is how to pass data when doing InterPortlet Communication using Local JSF portlets in Weblogic Portal.
I will eloborate on the particular scenario we have below.
Two JSF portlets are build (both are not using Java Page Flows). The first porltet has a table of data. When the user clicks on one of the items in the table (which is coded using <h:commandLink/> option), the second portlet should show some details on the item clicked.
For example:
If there is a list of books in first portlet, when clicking on one of the book name, the details of book should come up in the second portlet.
To achieve this, faces event was enabled in first portlet with requestAttrPersistence option set to session.
For example :
<netuix:content>
<netuix:facesContent contentUri="/bookList.faces" requestAttrPersistence="session">
<netuix:facesEvents>
<netuix:facesEvent action="/bookDetails.faces" eventName="bookDetailEvent"/>
</netuix:facesEvents>
</netuix:facesContent>
</netuix:content>
The second portlet was configured to handle faces events, particularly the bookDetailEvent.
Example:
<netuix:handleFacesEvent eventLabel="handleFacesEvent1" eventName="bookDetailEvent" fromSelfInstanceOnly="false" onlyIfDisplayed="true" sourceDefinitionLabels="JSFPortlet_1" sourceDefinitionWildcard="this">
<netuix:invokeFacesAction action="/bookDetails.faces"/>
</netuix:handleFacesEvent>
Going by this method, how can we find the particular book whose detail has to be shown? As in JSF, we dont directly access the request attributes, what is the ideal way to pass data from one page to other?
Please help on this.

i am also having the same problem.I tried by passing _nfls=false but it didn't work.Can you suuggest where do i need to set this or any other parametrs such as this programmatically?

Alternatives to WAD for displaying BI Queries / Views in Enterprise Portal

Hello experts,
we have been using WAD 3.5 extensively for displaying BI Querys in a web-capable form within our Enterprise Portal.
Since our users are not BW-familiar in general, we have the requirement to provide a very easy GUI and navigation.
Actually in 3.5 we are able to fulfill this requirement by extensive use of Javascript to modify the look & feel and also the behaviour of the Web applications.
In WAD 7.0 this is not any longer possible, as SAP restricted the Javascript usage, in 7.0 it is impossible to change the HTML code by accessing the DOM, which is very uncomfortable for us, since our users are familiar with the our (javascript-driven)convenient BI Web interfaces.
My question now: are there any alternatives for displaying BI content (queries / views) in the portal apart from using WAD web templates?
I read that the Visual Composer is now capable of processing BI content. Does anyone have experiences with this? And if yes, how does this compare to the WAD?
I also read that there is a BI Java SDK which contains an API to the OLAP processor. Is the BI Java SDK an alternative to WAD? And if yes, is it possible to integrate Java SDK with Web Dynpro or is it plain Java requiring the usage of Servlets / JSP to render the UI?
Thanks in advance for your help,
best regards,
Thilo

BI SDK is a Java library without UI support. Think adout it as a JDBC-type API with multidimentional data support. It's the way to go if you need to get to the data itself but it is not appropriate if you want low-effort reporting solution.

Viewing HTML files and Overriding a portlet

Dear reader:
I need to view an HTML file in a portlet according to a specified parameter passed via URL address, can i use url.display_url or not, and how? and if not what should i use?
and related to that how can i call a portlet (or a page published as portlet)to override an existing one (programatically)?
thank you for your time.

To bring in content from another url, I've used code similar to the following within a Dynamic Page portlet with alot of success...
<html>
<table>
<tr><td>
<iframe
src="http://www.domain.com/blablabla" noresize hspace="0" vspace="0" frameborder="0"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" width="620" height="400">

Display different portal page or portlet depend on user's

can I display different portal page or portlet depend on user's
profile,such as: if user's gender is male, display a portal
page named "malePortal",if the user's gender is female, display
a portal page named "femalePortal"

This can be accomplished by using Entitlements Segments.
You can define them in EBCC. you will have to define a user profile which
will contain user information (like gender).
Once you have two segments defined, you can use portal administration site
to configure entitlements for pages and portlets.

a custom IP class. If you just want to show different content based on auser profile
value, take a look at "Content Selectors" in EBCC; this sounds like aneasier way
to get where you're trying to go.
I don't think there's a way to display different portal pages/portalsbased on user's
profile settings.

How can I view 2 active windows within a program simultaneously?

Using Windows programs on a PC, I could often use the "Window" menu to access the commands (something like) "Tile Vertical" or "Tile Horizontal" to view 2 active windows within a program on the screen simultaneously with a click or 2 of the mouse. I am finding that with a Mac I must manually resize and position 2 active windows to view them simultaneously. Am I missing something or is the manual method my only option? Thank you so much for any suggestions.

Yes, it's the only built-in option. There are several third-party window managers that provide the type of functionality you are looking for. You can find them at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate. For example,
Window Tiles
FlexiGlass
There are others with varying types of features and options.

please help me to reso

Are you saying you have two separate WD Applications (both FPM) which you want to run as two iViews in the same Portal Page? If so, this is a very basic NetWeaver Portal capability - to add more than one iView to a Page. However this isn't the correct forum to discuss this, as that discussion would belong in the NetWeaver Portal Forum.

What's with all these viewing card activation reco...

seriously I can sometimes have 20 in a week! They're a PITA the delete as I can't group delete something and have to do each one in turn

I think you should only have two a week! Check your series recordings list.
The aim is to keep the viewing card active by tuning to ESPN for an hour which allows the over air reactivation to take place. If you watch ESPN for at least an hour a week anyway then you can delete the series recordings. I do this during the football season when I keep the card in the TV but during the off season I put the card back in the Vision box and reinstate the Saturday recording to keep it alive.
I don't have Sky Sports so don't know if there are any additional series recordings for that, but it'll be the same principle if there are.
