There is another JavaScript bug in Oracle WebCenter Interaction 10gR3 (\bea\alui\ptimages\imageserver\plumtree\common\private\jsutil\LATEST\ptutil.js). My current version of this file 'ptutils.js' is 334989. You can find the bug in line 116:

                if (srcObj.Class && (srcObj.Class == 'Array') && (typeof srcObj[i] == 'function')) { continue; }

which should be

                if (srcObj.Class && (srcObj.Class == 'Array') && (typeof srcObj[i] == 'function')) { continue; }
                if (typeof srcObj[i] == 'function') { continue; } // <-- This line is missing

For some reasons it is very helpful to have a java decompiler. If you need one, have a look to http://java.decompiler.free.fr/, which also has a good Eclipse integration.

There is a javascript bug in PTControls.js (\bea\alui\ptimages\imageserver\plumtree\common\private\js\jscontrols\LATEST). My current version of this file is 334989. You can find the bug in line 16424

PTTabControl.prototype,constructor = PTTabControl;

which has to be

PTTabControl.prototype.constructor = PTTabControl;

On August 27th, 2008, Bill Benac published a very useful Firefox Add-on. With this add-on you can always recognize the portal server the response came from. Especially it is very useful in a clustered environment.


My colleagues and me extended this add-on with additional information, like the construction and response time. You can get this add-on from Bill Benac's website http://blog.billbenac.com/blog/2008/08/firefox-plugin-shows-host-port.html or send me a mail .

While developing an intranet portal based on Oracle WebCenter Interaction 10gR3 for a customer, developers of idesis GmbH (http://www.idesis.de) have successfully fixed a bug with accessing a bookmarked community page (portal page) url when the user doesn't have a valid portal session in a SSO (Single SignOn) environment yet.

There are 4 different ways to open a community page:

1. http://<portalurl>/portal/server.pt
2. http://<portalurl>/portal/server.pt?open=514&objID=12345&mode=2
3. http://<portalurl>/portal/server.pt?uuID={C8DC1486-F0CF-4DD4-A0A8-753E0D6B2D36}&mode=2
4. http://<portalurl>/portal/server.pt/community/information_management/1111/information_management

The first address always opens the homepage, so it isn't interesting for us in this case. The second address always works, even in a SSO environment. Address-type 3 and 4 only work if the user already logged on the portal.

You can reproduce the bug doing the following steps:

1. Configure an WCI 10gR3 portal (or ALUI 6.x) with SSO.
2. Bookmark a community page.
3. Open a new browser window and attempt directly access that bookmarked community Url.
4. Note that you are redirected to your My Page / Homepage (it depends on the configuration of your experience definition)
   
5. Now that you're already logged in via SSO, if you paste the community URL again into the address bar then you will properly be directed to the community.
