Hello All,
We are upgrading our portal to the latest 7.3 portal and we are having issues with the mathead PAR file. 
I imported the par file into NWDS 7.3 and deployed the EAR from NWDS to the 7.3 portal system. However when I try previewing the iView it gives Portal Runtime Exception. I also tried with the PAR Migration tool just to ensure I am not missing something when importing through NWDS. Still the same error with the iView.
My JSP code has errors in NWDS. But as the blogs on SDN says we are getting errors in the code since JSP doesnt compile at runtime, which is correct. I am still able to bundle it in an EAR and deploy successfully. However, is there anything I need to change.... any class references when importing masthead par from 7.0 to 7.3 ? Do I need to add any external libraray JARs for the below imports or we can simply ignore these errors?
<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.laf.*" %>
<%@ page import = "com.sap.security.api.UMFactory" %>
<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.license.ILicenseService"%>
<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.navigation.*" %>
<%@ page import = "com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntime" %>
<%@ taglib uri="prt:taglib:tlhtmlb" prefix="hbj" %>
Also please see the attached trace file, the masthead Header iView shows records the below exception w.r.t LoginModuleClass in the trace logs -
Exception ID:04:04_01/05/12_0016_4480450
[EXCEPTION]

Hi All,
We are currently in the process of upgrading SAP Portal 7.0 to 7.4.
I created custom theme based on standard SAP Tradeshow on our development system.
But Anytime I change system parameters like session timeout or cookie configuration e.g. setting it secure etc and provide a system restart, the theme is not behaving properly. No images are seen nor can we move around the portal.
When we provide a normal system restart w/o changing any system parameters, it works perfectly.
When I check the HTTp watch, it shows 404 error for the custom theme.
To summarise, only when system parameters are changed and restart is provided, custom theme behaves this way.
Importing and exporting theme gives no error and works fine. This happens on the environment where the theme is developed itself.
PFA attached screenshots.

Deep Desai

Hi,
We have recently migrated from 7.0 to 7.3
And the problem we are facing is we had a customized logon screen in 7.0.
And when we are deploying the same to nwds 7.3,
We are getting this error in logs:
An error occured during authscheme computation.

Hi Expert,
We have opentext VIM Approval Portal(Invoice Management) installed on our Portal systems.
version is 7 SP3 on non-production and 6 SP5 on Production.
Now we have a problem:
We are upgrading our Portal system from 7.01 to 7.31. And we got
attached error during upgrde. The VIM Approval Portal was not in the
stack file, and with it actually installed as a component, the SUM
didn't know what to do.
We had to choose to undeploy VIM Portal before upgrade and install it
again after the upgrade. However, this will cause downtime for Approval
Portal during business days. (the downtime for upgrade is in weekend,
but the preparations are in business days).
Please let me know if you have any ideas avoiding this. Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Jason
Hi we were upgrading EP Java and went to the Preprocessing phase where patches were applied to shadow instance. We decided we want a different version/set of patches and needed to recalculate stack file. We went ahead and cancelled the upgrade. We proceeded as follows:
1. SUM - Update - Reset Update. Message showed it was reset. Not sure if it "actually" worked. This was done according to SUM guide. Exited out of SUM with no errors.
2. Checked DB table - found schema present SAP<SID>SH - dropped schema with content
3. Checked main schema SAPSR3DB - 565 tables starting with SHD found . Dropped all these tables with cascade and purge.
4. Restored the /usr/sap/SID directory
5. Rebooted Server
6. SAP Starts up fine and everything works fine as before
7. Deleted shadow instance services from registry
8. No profiles found related to shadow instance
9. Deleted old SUM folder. Extracted fresh SUM and started
(Unfortunately in Java there is no option of RSUPGRES/RSUPGREV - neither is there a UVERS table - also there is no DDIC user which is being asked for when I do a SAPup prepare reset)
How do we clean up and do a reset for Java ? Ther's gotta be a place where SUM is reading old entries from. We really dont want to restore the DB but they may be the only solution it seems
Below is the message I get. I have opened a ticket with SAP and already checked OSS Note:
2011380 - Previous SUM not finished properly and asking for CLEAN

We have a requirement to upgrade our existing ESS/MSS portal from it's current version of 7.02 SP11 to at least 7.31 (preferably higher, i.e. 7.4). Our back end ECC 6.0 system is on EHP 5 with NW 7.02 SP11. I've read the following blog, but it does not make any reference to NW stack of the back end system:
My question is, can we upgrade the ESS/MSS portal (knowing that we would have to install ESS 633 on this new portal instead of the current ESS 603) without upgrading either NW stack or ECC of our back end system?
Thanks,
Setu
During the migration of SAP EP 7.0 portal to 7.4, we got few errors related to existing WPC and some of their services. WPC 1.0 content did not get migrated. Thus, we ran the migration tools (as detailed in Note: 1745913 - WPC content migration to 7.3 has failed). Cleaner tool ran successfully, but Migration tool is giving below error:
LayoutsMigrator starts migrating layouts...
Migrated editor component: ckeditor
Error encountered migrating resource: /wpccontent/Sites/Intranet/Site Navigation/navigation.wpc
Error encountered during processing: java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.portal.pcc.km.objects.IPccKmObject.getKmLocation() of a null object returned from com.sap.portal.pcc.pcd.objects.IPccPcdArea.getKmObject()
Any ideas about this error?
Is it possible to re-install WPC 2.0 tool?
It appears that WPC is not able to connect to KM repositories; we are not able to see Global Shared Content or Shared Connect when trying to edit the Page and under Area.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi all,
I'm trying to upgrade our EP (Java only) from NW 7.0 to NW 7.4. We did a test on a POC server last Summer and it went fine.
Now, it's time to do real upgrade on our servers; of course, the old SUM version doesn't work anymore. I used MOPZ to generate new stack files, download the latest components and all.
Somehow, the SUM kept failing at step 5.5 - Preprocessing when it tries to Start shadow instance SCS.
The log only indicates that SUM tried to start the instance a 20 times (with 15-second pauses in between) so it gave up. The last part of the log shows
------------------------

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: Invalid Credentials
--------------------------
The only SAP Note I found is 1937296 where it says you'd need the latest kernel. But I've already had the latest kernel.
What bothers me is "Invalid Credentials" --> which credentials?
I tried several different things. Reset the upgrade, cleaned up the SUM directory, re-start the upgrade from scratch several times. I've also tried to re-start the instance; even re-started the server a couple of times ... to no avail :-(
I also tried to run the sapstartsrv command line
## ../SUM/sdt/data/kernel/sapstartsrv pf=../../DPK_SCS02_mydev -D
and I'd get the error
--------------------
Could not open the ICU common library.

Any help and/or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Experts,
Need your help. Currently we are facing issue in KM multiple uploads.We have Multiple upload option in K8D which is development environment but we are not seeing that option in Production Environment. Please find the screenshots as below ::
Screenshot for K8P (Multiple Upload option not available) ::
Screenshot for K8D (Multiple Upload option available) ::
We tried to check the settings in K8D and K8P everything is similar. There is no difference so we need experts advise on this issue what we need to do to make multiple uploads available in KM. Since this is a standard functionality but it is only availble in our Development tool.
Thanks,
Harsh Sukhramani
Dear Experts -
We are getting weird errors after the upgrade. We have got a page to display the PDF documents.
We have created the i views using the "KM Document I view" template. My i view preview works perfectly but when i add to page i'm facing issues.
Just to add It's not always throws the error.. sometimes it works.. sometimes it throws the error.
However my query is.. i just noticed the below difference and wanted to your feedback.
As you can see below, the show tray option has got a check box in one iview and in some others we got "true/false" and both are based on the same template(KM Document I view)
Is there any way that my page metadata is not getting updated? if so how do i check?

Dear all,
we recently upgraded our Portal Test server from 7.01 Sp6 to EP 7.30 sp 7, after up-gradation we are not able to access the PCD.
i checked with admin users, but no luck. We are able to use AJAX framework, wiki, Web page composer, problems with PCD ,Search and system permissions.
-> When opened Content Administrator it's not showing the Portal content Workset, directly opening Portal Content Translation.
-> Accessible Content Administrator not working.
-> unable to view the Save options in system Administration - initial permissions - Below note suites 100% for the problem, But one of prerequisite is Administrator user can able to access the portal Content.
Note 1620161 - NW Portal -Settings for initial permissions are not complete
Kindly Suggest any note or procedure to solve this problem?
