Web Repository and restriction to a certain path

Hi,
I configured a web repository in EP6 SP16, everything is working fine. I created it to route the access to http://host/siteA though the portal. Is there a way to restrict the users access to this site and to deny access to http://host ?
Users can call http://portal/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/demowebrepository/pathx/siteA which virtually displays http://host/siteA .... if they know how to handle the patchs in the URL and type in http://portal/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/demowebrepository/pathx/ they get access to http://host and all the linked sites in there, which I want to hide ......
Any ideas?

Hello Martin,
the best way to do so, is impementing a reverse Proxy like apache. It's free and very effective. You should not enable content filtering only URL filtering and rewriting for performance reasons.

  • Apple TV and restricting content on certain tv's?

  • Index and crawler not working on Web Repository

    Hi Team,
    I'm trying to setup a Web Repository and crawling it for indexing. I've followed the steps from a SAP "how-To" document, but I guess the problem might be the way I'm confuring the web site in EP. I've created a Virtual Directory on my laptop's IIS 5.0 web server and the URL of the web site has been set as http://laptop-ashishk/myWebSite.
    Do I need to set the START PAGE as /index.html (as per the spec it says it's not mandatory)...
    Let me know whether you need any information with regards to this problem.
    Ashish

    They've set:
    meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=2.3, user-scalable=no"
    It's the user-scalable that's the problem. Apple considers the default (per their web coding rules at http://developer.apple.com/iphone/designingcontent.html to be yes.
    I've noticed the same thing.

  • Web Repository Manager and robots.txt

    Hello,
    I would like to search an intranet site and therefore set up a crawler according to the guide "How to set up a Web Repository and Crawl It for Indexing".
    Everything works fine.
    Now this web site uses a robots.txt as follows:
    <i>User-agent: googlebot
    Disallow: /folder_a/folder_b/
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /</i>
    So obviously, only google is allowed to crawl (parts of) that web site.
    My question: If I'd like to add the TRex crawler to the robots.txt what's the name of the "User-agent" I have to specify here?
    Maybe the name I defined in the SystemConfiguration > ... > Global Services > Crawler Parameters > Index Management Crawler?
    Thanks in advance,
    Stefan

    Hi Stefan,
    I'm sorry but this is hard coded. I found it in the class : com.sapportals.wcm.repository.manager.web.cache.WebCache
    private HttpRequest createRequest(IResourceContext context, IUriReference ref)
            HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest(ref);
            String userAgent = "SAP-KM/WebRepository 1.2";
            if(sessionWatcher != null)
                String ua = sessionWatcher.getUserAgent();
                if(ua != null)
                    userAgent = ua;
            request.setHeader("User-Agent", userAgent);
            Locale locale = context.getLocale();
            if(locale != null)
                request.setHeader("Accept-Language", locale.getLanguage());
            return request;
    So recompile the component or changing the filter... I would prefer to change the roberts.txt
    hope this helps,

  • Newly created Web repository not showing up in explorer

    I'm trying to create an index which would finally enable me to search the 'CNN' website (following the 'how to' document : 'HOW TO SET UP A WEB REPOSITORY AND CRAWLING IT FOR INDEXING'). I'm unable to assign the web repository which I  created in an earlier step to the index because it doesn't show up in the repository/folder listing. I can't even see it under 'Content Administration -> KM Content -> Repositories'.
    What exactly am I doing wrong?!
    thanks,
    Biju.

    Hi Karsten,
    - We're on EP6 SP2.
    - Yes, I'm referring to the document you mentioned.
    - Yes, the repository does show up with a green light under KM -> Component Monitor.
    BTW, I was able to bring up the web repository now that I've specified under 'System Admin ® System Config ® Service Config ® Applications ® com.sap.portal.ivs.httpservice ® Services ® proxy ® HTTP-Bypass Proxy Servers' that everything under 'mycompany.com' must be bypassed. I'd originally specified the proxy set up in the TREX configuration, which runs on another (physical) server than the portal.
    I don't really get the connection, but essentially took the cue from the earlier reply I got.
    So, in short, I think the problem is solved at least for the moment.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Subscription for a web repository

    Hi Experts ,
    I am using EP 2004s , I have created a web repository and activated a subscription service for that.
    Unfirtunately I am not able to receive any subscription notification emais , I can receive the subscription email for the repositories created inside the portal.
    As per my understanding from sap help , for a web repository we should receive subscription notification emails once crawler detects the changes .
    I have schedule the crawler accordingly so that it can detect the changes .
    Can anybody through some light on , on which basis crawler considers that this document has been modified ?
    Any advice , points are assured .
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amit Kade

    Hi Amit
    The following snippet is taken from the description of Subscription Event Mapping:
    Subscription Event Mapping
    A subscription event mapping maps events sent by a repository manager onto events that are meaningful with respect to subscriptions to resources...
    As you can see, the Subscription Event Mapping handles events send by a repository manager, but since no events can be send from a Web Repository (as far as I know), you are actually not performing any mapping, and thus it does not work.
    I was once told by SAP support that "Send events" does not work for a WebDAV repository, unless the changes/event was triggered from within the KM framework. Since a web repository isn't more closely integrated into the KM, my guess is that a web repository does not support "Send events" triggered from outside the portal either.
    With "custom built" I mean that "Send events" (and thus notification emails) might work if you develop a custom web repository manager, that can handle a very good integration between a website and the portals KM.
    Kind regards,
    Martin

  • Crawling Web Repository - Error

    Hi Experts ,
    EP Version - EP 2004s
    I have configured a web repository as per the guide "How to configure a web repositiry and crawl it for searching ..".
    I have configured this for portal index page. I can see the folder created under 'root' and one link created in that folder . When I click on that link I can access the portal index page.
    I have created an index for this and crawled but after crawling it has indexed only one page . I have tried this with some document iViews (HTML).But unfortunately it is indexing only one page.
    Can anybody tell me what is wrong !
    This is kind of urgent as I am at the customer site.

    Hi Praksh ,
    Thanks a lot for the quick reply . Actually I have already gone through these links .
    To make it simple I have created a simple website containing some html pages and links.
    I have created a web repository and crawl it  for indexing , this time with custome properties of index like 'IndexContentOfExternalLink' & 'IndexInternalLinks'.
    But to my disappointment it has again indexed only one page that is initial page.
    Any suggessions ?

  • HTML property extractor for web repository

    Hi All,
    I was just wondering has anyone worked on this ...
    We are using EP 2004s and for one of our web server we have created a web repository and now we want to use 'html property extractor" to extract the values of META tag of the html documents.
    This will help us in filtering the search result , so we have followed following steps :
    1. Created a html property extractor for the meta tags (META all =<meta tag name>).
    2. Assigned this extractor to the web repository.
    3. Crawled the website .
    After this we tried to search for the documents using meta tag values but not able to find any document.
    We have even tried to filter the result by adding this custom property in 'custom properties' , but this also didn't work.
    Is there anything we are missing or this has to work in some other way ?
    Note : We have tried a html extractor with <title> tag and extracted it successfully .
    Useful answers will be rewarded points !
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amit Kade

    Hi Amit
    I'm working on a solution using Web Property Extractors as well, and would like to know if you managed to find a solution to your problem.

  • ACL for Web repository

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to have ACL on web repositories? How do differentiate simple web repository and web repository?
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Subu

    Hi Subu,
    > Is it possible to have ACL on web repositories
    It is recommended to set the AclSecurityManager as Security Manager, and with this, you can also set ACLs (... I expect ... never done that). The question stays, is it really senseful.
    Also check the Web Security Manager in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a9/c54e9e09448d46b73d154e93d5e995/frameset.htm
    > differentiate simple web repository and web repository
    The simple web repository is one(!) repository with the webs listed under it. For more details and differences see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ba/fa7d404d84cf62e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

  • Flex mobile project: web root and root path for a remote web service?

    Hi all,
    i'm trying to set up the testdrive tutorial for flex mobile project, with flash builder 4.5
    and php data.
    I've uploaded the files on my remote web space (e.g. http://mywebsite.org, and the
    test file is http://mywebsite.org/TestDrive/test/test.php... and it works
    correctly)... But when i'm setting properties of the project, i don't know what
    to write into the web root and root path fields... I thing root path is simply
    http://mywebsite.org... and whatever i write in the other fields (output folder
    too) i have errors when i click on "validate configuration"...
    What should i put into those fields? is zend framework (and gateway.php)
    strictly necessary?
    As you can see... i'm a bit confused....

  • Simple Web and regular Web Repository errors... Need Help

    Hello all!
    We're running into a problem with Simple Web and regular Web Repository managers in our QA portal environment.  These repository managers work very well in our Dev portal, but now that we're trying to implement them in QA, of course they aren't working.  :-\
    I set up a specific web site in our Web Repository manager.  However, when I navigate to the repository's folder in KM, it just hangs. When I go to the Component Monitor and look at the Web Repository manager, the server is in red. The Status is "startup failed" and the specific error is:
    "2008-01-07T19:47:48Z: GET /WhitePages/Spider: com.sapportals.wcm.WcmException: sending request to: http://hostname.company.com/ request uri: /WhitePages/Spider Connection timed out:could be due to invalid address (java.net.SocketException: Connection timed out:could be due to invalid address)"
    When I try to set up the same web site in the Simple Web Repository Manager, I receive the same error.  However, we shouldn't need a proxy configured because this is an internal web site.
    This works in our Dev environment, so what configuration should I be looking at specifically?  Any tips from anyone?
    Thanks in advance to everyone!
    Fallon

    Hi,
    As far as I know such type of problems are common in repositroy managers.
    They work on one and don't on the other.
    Possible reasons could be the connectivity and access issues.
    As u r saying that it is an internal website pls chk connectivity of the QA system with the webserver.
    Check ur Repository manager's configuration once again in Sys Admin.
    Last option is to create a new Web RM in QA.
    I know it is irritating but doesn't takes much time right.
    i hope this helps.
