WebCenter Space export/import

Hi there,
I'm a newbie to WebCenter.
Currently I'm having an issue in synchronizing Production and Development environment. I exported the space from PROD and try to import to Dev. After I clicked "Browse Archive" button, the application froze.
I checked the log file and found the following error:
The pageDefinition uses an EL expression #{pageFlowScope.lifecycleScopeGuidToDelete}. If payLoad is used as a key/property please use data.payLoad instead
Any idea what to fix this issue?
Thanks!

Did you ever find a solution? Someone deleted one of our entire policy nodes and now security is hosed. Not sure how to recover and I found this error as well.

Change default text in adf faces component in Webcenter Spaces

Hi ,
Here is the link that I found to change the default text in adf faces component. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/49-skin-component-labels-169191.pdf
Scenario is simple :
Taskflow "ABC" is used in webcenter space through imported Library in spaces App. Taskflow "ABC" have the pageFragment "view1" and fragment has a adf table on that page. I was trying to change the "Detach" text using below code in above provided instruction.
{ "af_panelCollection.LABEL_DETACH_TABLE_DLG", "Any name for the Detachable Table" },
{ "af_panelCollection.LABEL_DETACH_TREE_TABLE_DLG", "Any name for the Detachable Tree Table" }
Query/Problem : I did change in the trinidad-skins.xml of DesignWCSpaces app ... redeployed the war.. But the text didn't changed. The above steps worked fine for individual ADF application ... SO what's wrong with implementation on Webcenter Spaces ?

Hi.
Basically you have to do the following:
Create an ADF JAR Library including your Skin (JS, Images, CSS Skin, Resources Bundles and trinidad-skins.xml)
Deploy the ADF JAR Library as Shared-lib in WebLogic.
Include in your weblogic.xml of the WebCenter Portal (Formerly Spaces) deployment via DesignWebCenterSpaces or the new extension the reference to the shared-lib.
Restart WebCenter Portal (Spaces). When starting WebCenter Portal (Spaces) it looks inside of the Classpath for all trinidad-skins.xml files.
Setup your custom skin for a Space and test.
If the Skin is not selectable in the Administration Console then register your new skin downloading/updating/uploading from the MDS the generic-site-resources.xml file of the default scope GUID.
If you still have issues then may I priorize a Blog entry explaining this .

Unable to import space templates in webcenter spaces using default import

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in importing space template in webcenter spaces.The steps i followed were:
1. Logged into webcenter spaces and in space templates,I selected one template.
2. Then I clicked on 'Export' button and template exported successfully on my local machine.
3. It was in .ear format so I changed it to .rar and extracted it.
4.Then I got .mar and I changed extension again to .rar.
5. In the folder I went to \webcenter_1298368482200\transport\oracle\webcenter\page\scopedMD\sd6290014_14b6_41a1_8ac1_f84d239ebe53\spacetemplate\DiscussionSiteHome.jspx.
6. I made certain changes in that .jspx file.
7. then I saved those changes and again changed extension .mar and .ear.
8. After that I went to webcenter spaces.I selected the template from the list of templates in spaces and clicked on 'Import' button .
9. It asked for path and I gave the path of .ear
10. It imported successfully but the changes were not reflected in the template in webcenter spaces.
Pls help me out as it is very urgent.

Best practice metadata export/import for WebCenter portal

Hi
I'm using JDeveloper to build the WebCenter portal. When I let's say register a portlet producer along with my portal, the information about it is stored in the metadata. In case I want to move my portal from the integrated WLS which JDeveloper provides to another WebLogic server with WebCenter installation - steps which I need to do are:
1) Export the metadata from JDeveloper
2) Import metadata to my target Weblogic server
3) deploy the application
Am I missing something?
To export/import metadata from JDeveloper to another Weblogic (equipped with WebCenter) server I should use the WLST script, right?
Thanks

Customising Webcenter Spaces Page Templates - "Import Portal Resource" N/A

Hi,
I am attempting to customise a Page Template for Webcenter Spaces, and I am trying to do so in JDeveloper.
I have successfully opened the WebCenterSpacesResources project in JDeveloper, and also successfully downloaded the page template resource (.ear file).
I am now trying to import this webcenter spaces resource (page template) into the project, as described in this step:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_wcsres.htm#CIHJFGJI
The problem is, the "*Import Portal Resource*" option does not appear in the menu when I right-click on WebCenterSpacesResources project.
I am using JDeveloper version 11.1.1.5.0.
I have also downloaded and installed WebCenter Framework and Services Design Time extension.
Any reason why I cannot see this option?
Amanda.

Hi,
I have installed both of the extensions, but I went to:
http://www.oracle.com/ocom/groups/public/@otn/documents/webcontent/156082.xml#oracle.webcenter.cust
and dowloaded both (latest):
WebCenter Framework and Services Design Time
WebCenter Customization Framework Design Time
and then installed them manually in my JDeveloper.
I have restarted and the option still does not appear:
http://oi52.tinypic.com/13yo02b.jpg
How do I know that the extensions are installed? They seem to be when I look at the Help > About > Extensions
http://oi51.tinypic.com/244xylh.jpg
I have tried this with versions 11.1.1.5 and 11.1.1.4.

Thank you!

Hi,
you can use CTAS method or you can export & import the tables..
create table b.table1 as select * from a.table1;
create table c.table1 as select * from a.table1;
you can export import whole schema or schema objects also
expdp system/***** dumpfile=tables.dmp logfile=tab.log directory=data_pump_dir schemas=a
and then
impdp system/**** dumpfile=tables.dmp logfile=imp.log directory=data_pump_dir remap_schemas=(a:b)
or you can individually import the tables also..

Best choice for exporting / importing EUL

Hi all
I have been tasked with migrating an EUL from a R11 to a R12 environment. The Discoverer version on both environments is 10.1.2 and the OS is Solaris on oracle db's.
I am unfortunately not experienced with Discoverer and there seems to be no one available to assist for various reasons. So I have been reading the manual and forum posts and viewing metalink articles.
I tried exporting the entire eul via the wizard and then importing it to the new environment but i was not successfull and experienced the system hanging for many hours with a white screen and the log file just ended.
I assumed this was a memory problem or slow network issues causing this delay. Someone suggested I export import the EUL in pieces and this seemed to be effective but I got missing item warnings when trying to open reports. This piece meal approach also worried me regarding consistency.
So I decided to try do the full import on the server to try negate the first problem I experienced. Due to the clients security policies I am not able to open the source eul and send it to our dev. I was able to get it from their dev 11 system but I dismissed this as the dev reports were not working and the only reliable eul is the Prod one. I managed to get a prod eex file from a client resource but the upload to my server was extremely slow.
I asked the dba to assit with the third option of exporting a db dump of the eul_us and importing this into my r12 dev environment. I managed this but had to export the db file using sys which alleviated a priviledge problem when logging in, I have reports that run and my user can see the reports but there are reports that were not shared to sysadmin in the source enviroment are now prefixed with the version 11 user_id in my desktop and the user cannot see her reports only the sysadmin ones.
I refreshed the BA's using a shell script I made up which uses the java cmd with parameters.
After some re reading I tried selecting all the options in the validate menu and refreshing in the discover admin tool.
If I validate and refresh the BA using the admin tool I get the hanging screen and a lot of warnings that items are missing( so much for my java cmd refresh!) and now the report will not open and I see the substitute missing item dialogue boxes.
My question to the forum is which would be the best approach to migrate the entire eul from a R11 instance to a R12 instance in these circumstances?
Many thanks
Regards
Nick

Hi Srini
The os and db details are as follows:
Source:
eBus 11.5.2
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Target:
ebus 12.1.2
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production DEV12
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Yes the DBA initially did an exp for me using EUL_US as the owner but a strange thing happened with privileges and also, some of the imported tables appeared in the target environment under the apps schema(21 tables) even though the eul_us exp had been 48 tables.
I also had a problem on the db with "eul_us has insufficient privileges on table space discoverer" type errors.
I checked the eul_us db privileges and was unable to resolve this initial privilege error even though the privileges were granted to eul_us.
The dba managed to exp as system and then import it with the full=y flag in the import command which seems to bring in the privileges.
Then I ran the eul5_id.sql and then made up a list of the business areas and made a sh script to refresh the business areas as follows:
java -jar eulbuilder.jar -connect sysadmin/oracle1@dev -apps_user -apps_responsibility "System Administrator" -refresh_business_area "ABM Activities" -log refresh.log
This runs successfully and I can log in select business area and grant access to the users. The reports return data.
Then one of the users said she can't see all her reports. I noticed some if I opened desktop that were sitting there prefixed with a hash and her version 11 user id.
So back to the manuals and in the disco admin help the instructions are to first go to view > validate > select all options then go to the business area and click file refresh. This gives me a lot of warnings about items that are missing. I assume this is because the item identifiers brought across in the db dump are the version 11 ones and thus not found in the new system.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks
Nick

How can I incorporate new backing beans into a Webcenter Spaces Server?

I am using the WebCenterSpaces application in Customization Developer Role to make changes to some taskflows for a customer. In order to implement a desired change in the Nav Model for the customer, I had to write 3 very small backing beans. They compiled fine, the taskflow let me add them as managed beans. It even new about these backing beans, presumably because I compiled them. I made changes to the .jsff file to use them and that worked fine. However the metadata.mar created when I deploy the application does not have these new classes, so they will not get put into the WC_Spaces server when I use WLST to import the metadata. Can anybody tell me how to get new backing beans into WebCenter Spaces?
I cant be the only one who has had to do this.
Thanks.

I don't know if you can import as part of the metadata import but an alternative will be to create a shared library out of your java classes and referencing the shared lib in spaces.

Error during export & import of rules in RAR 5.2

Hi all,
We followed the steps mentioned in exporting & importing the rules as per the Config guide. But we
are receiving the below error during the import of rules. Can anybody please throw a limelight on why this error message is appearing?
"Error in Table Data ==> VIRSA_CC_CRPROF
SQL==>Insert into VIRSA_CC_CRPROF(VSYSKEY,PROFILE,RULESETID,RISKLEVEL,STATUS)Values(??????)
Record==>D VIRSA_CC_CRPROF null"
We also ensured that the downloaded file is not truncated and saved it in a separate folder. Does the file needs to saved in ANSI or Unicode text? We saved in ANSI
Also the background ground job is not getting scheduled automatically during the import of ruels. Is that due to the above error?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Srihari.K

Hello Sri,
background job for generating the rules won`t be scheduled before you upload the file successfully.
The most obvious reason for this error message is that you have line in your file - in table VIRSA_CC_CRPROF that is corrupted. Make sure all lines from table VIRSA_CC_CRPROF have all predefined fields - (VSYSKEY,PROFILE,RULESETID,RISKLEVEL,STATUS).
If you keep hiting this problem just delete this table, after the upload you`ll add the critical profiles manually - I bet you don`t have many of them.
Also from my experience I always choose to save the downloaded file in UNICODE UTF-8 format.
Once the file is saved in other format, there`s no use of it, download it again and save directly in Unicode.
Make sure you don`t have empty fields, even in the fields where you don`t have values, you must leave space, otherwise you`ll keep hitting the same issue.

Iliya

File download from a portletized ADF app running in webcenter spaces.

Hi,
I am having trouble downloading non static files from a portletized(with ADFPortletBridge) ADF application running as a portlet producer in Webcenter spaces .
This is my scenario :
Jdev : 11.1.1.3
Webcenter : 11.1.1
The ADF app has a query page, that uses the af:query component to do a query and display results on a table. This table data need to be exported as a file with some changes like splitting address to component city and state columns .
The ADF app makes use of af:filedownloadlistener to get this(HTML formatted file with an .xls ext is our current preference to get it to open in excel, but could be anything) done . The ADF app works just fine, but as section 30.2.5.5 in the web center dev guide points out http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_bridge.htm#CACBHDEF
> The <af.fileDownloadActionListener> component is not supported.
The actual behavior however is that the export happens when triggered, but the component keep serving up the same file it created the first time it got invoked every subsequent time. The same file is served even across sessions.
The alternatives I've considered so far are :
1. <af:exportCollectionActionListener> - Exports what you see on the UI table. Would not work for us, because our exported data is different than whats on screen. (eg: whole addresses are displayed as a single column, but broken down as component city and state columns in exported data )
UPDATE : <af:exportCollectionActionListener> exhibits the same behavior as <af.fileDownloadActionListener> in a portlet environment. The first time after deployment it works, and every subsequent time (across sessions) it serves up the same file it first generated.
2. redirect to a servlet - admittedly half baked idea - fiire an action that will generate the report, then put it in sessionScope , redirect to a servlet that would pick up the report from session and stream it to the user by setting the servlet's response content type. Very unsure if this would fly in a portlet environment (sorry, I'm new to portlets) and even if it does, section 30.2.5.2 in the web center dev guide says :
Do not redirect or forward a request within your JSP. JSR 168 only supports requestDispatcher.include(). The use of httpServletResponse.sendRedirect() or requestDispatcher.forward() results in exceptions and errors. Am I overlooking some feature that would let me do this or whats the recommended method to achieve this functionality of exporting a file generated at run-time in a portlet environment ?

Automated packaging and deploying of WebCenter Spaces/Portal

Hey,
I'm using WebCenter PS5 (11.1.1.6) and was wondering if anyone has setup package and deployment scripts for use in Continuous Integration (CI) for Webcenter Portal and Spaces using Ant. From the documents online I can see that there is limited support for this:
WebCenter Portal
You can use the 'New...' wizard to generate an ant build which will build a .war for your Portal.jpr project. What I can't find is something that will generate an .ear for the entire .jws. Is there a way to do this through ant, wlst or other without doing a 'right-click' option in JDeveloper? It looks like the .ear generation adds a bit of extra stuff like the metadata archive and so couldn't fudge it through a normal <ear> task to wrap the .war.
WebCenter Spaces
So it looks like extending spaces requires quite a few different artifacts. The first being the extend.spaces.webapp.war, which is simple enough since the DesignWebCenterSpaces\WebCenterSpacesExtensionLibrary comes with an ant to do packaging and deployment. However it still leaves question marks for all the .ear files that contain Resources. It would seem you only have 2 choices here - right click deploy from JDeveloper or export as EAR from JDeveloper and then manually install. Are there any ojdeploy tasks etc for the individual spaces resources that could package and install into spaces?
It looks like the only thing I can really properly automate at the moment is the extend.spaces.webapp.war deployment, and all the rest I will have to generate an EAR from within JDeveloper. I really want to avoid generating from JDeveloper as that means you have to check-in archives into source control which isn't good practice.
Responses on this topic are next to none so I would really appreciate an answer if anyone has tried or done this.
Cheers,
Ross

So I managed to find a way to build the EAR using ant/ojdeploy for the WebCenter Portal Application. See the following text section which is found in the given link:
http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com.au/2010/11/using-ojdeploy-and-ant-for-creating-adf.html
Entirely separately to generating ADF libraries, if you wish to use the ojdeploy utility to create an EAR via the workspace, you do this by dropping the project option leaving the workspace, profile and outputfile options. If you do this under JDev 11.1.1.2.0 specifically you'll see the error message "Missing <workspace>, <project> or <profile> parameter in <deploy> element", caused by a bug in the ojdeploy utility, of which there is a patch available.
So basically just drop the <ora:parameter name="project" value="${oracle.jdeveloper.project.name}"/> line in your ant script and it will use the .jws instead to build your project.

This error related to reporting services, you need to verify that reporting services is installed on these instances.
Secondly, you didn't need to create this instance manually then setup monitoring role. delete this instance from shared storage and try again to setup rule using different instance name and it will create automatic on shared storage.
