The latest version of
Oracle WebCenter Sites (earlier known as FatWire
Content Server), represents the most advanced version of our product in terms
of design, functionality, and usability. The Oracle WebCenter Sites 11gR1
release includes a host of new features to support drag-and-drop page creation
and asset management. Additionally, there are updates to the look and feel of
the administrative interface, improved search capabilities.
Usability
is a primary theme of the latest release. Efforts have been made to simplify
interfaces and provide the right functionality at the right time.
·
New tab-based Contributor Interface – the new
Contributor Interface for marketers and business users provides a browser-like
interface to efficiently manage multiple assets simultaneously. Assets can be
opened in individual tabs and out-of-the-box revision tracking prevents asset
changes from being overridden by concurrent edits.
·
Improved support for drag and drop – it is
now possible to drag content from search results and sidebar trees to both
asset forms and page slots. Drag and drop can also now be used to quickly order
the pages of a site plan.
·
New search results views – view search
results as either lists or thumbnails. Search results can be docked to make
them conveniently available for dragging (e.g., to a page slot). The dock automatically appears on the
active tab.
·
Improved approval process – available
out-of-the-box, assets as well as their dependencies can now be approved with a
single operation.
·
Better ease of use – the
integrated WEM bar is now easier to use. A single click opens the WEM bar, and
it will remain open until manually closed.
The Contributor Interface has been given a modern look and feel with easily accessible controls and an updated color palette. Similarly, the Advanced, or Administrative, interface has been updated to better match the Contributor Interface.
The page building model and process has been redesigned. The management of page content can be accomplished using drag-and-drop functionality in combination with “dockable” search results, sidebar trees, and strategically available toolbars. Once page creation is initiated, content can be dragged to predefined slots. Slots can be constrained by asset type and role-based user permissions per slot can be assigned. Non-technical users can easily control the presentation of content with graphical layouts and predefined arguments.
New capabilities to operate on multiple assets efficiently, including bulk deletion, approval, and bookmarking. These operations are conveniently available from search results screens. Operations can be executed by selecting multiple assets and pressing a single button.
Updated capabilities to locate assets (e.g., with a keyword) from the Contributor Interface’s search bar, including a convenient, embedded control to search by asset type.
A dashboard is now provided out-of-the-box. Widgets to manage assignments, bookmarks, and checkouts are included. Widgets can be rearranged on the dashboard using simple drag-and-drop.
The
functionality below is removed effective this release:
· Dash
UI and InSite UI have been removed, they are replaced
with Contributor UI
· URL
attribute data type has been removed, use BLOB instead.
· RememberMe
attribute editor has been removed, use TypeAhead or PickFromTree instead.
The
functionality below is deprecated effective this release:
· The
ability to manage new content assets of type – basic, flex, page and
engage - the Admin UI (formerly called the Advanced UI). You should now access
this functionality from the Contributor UI.
· Mirror
Publishing, use Real Time publish instead
· Old
caching implementation, use the new inCache based implementation (this is
active upon install by default)
· SOAP
based web services are being deprecated, use the public REST API.
· Page
Debugger, users should look to IDE integration for JSP debug capabilities. DebugServlet is not deployed.
· Usage
of asset API from stand alone Java applications is deprecated, use REST API
instead.
· Support
for JBoss is not available in this release
· Support
for Safari is not available in this release, it is planned for a future release
The following lists
display the asset type names used by Oracle WebCenter Sites:
· All administrative database tables created
by WebCenter Sites which were added post release 7.5 of Content Server will be
prefixed with FW_. Asset types should not be created with a prefix of FW_.
· If there are any asset types that were
created using names in our Standard Asset list, upgrade scripts will encounter
errors. Manually back up their data and elements before starting the upgrade
process to preserve these assets. If you install the sample sites, do not use
the Sample Site asset type names listed below when creating custom asset types.

· For a given database, the name of a flex asset
type must have ten characters less than the maximum number of characters that
are allowed for database table names.
· For a given database, the name of a basic asset
type must have five characters less than the maximum number of characters that
are allowed for database table names.
· Dynamic
loading of new DataSource using loadproperty
tag is not supported.
· When Asset API is used in a standalone app and called from main method, it does not automatically terminate after the Asset API call is complete like other Java apps. The reason is because Asset API behaves like another cluster member of Sites and boots up all the events in the background. To terminate, code should call System.exit(0)
· If
Apache Web Server is not configured to use HTTP1.1, pages will be cached by IE
·
In Internet Explorer, the Tools >
Internet Options > Settings > Every Visit to the page must be set to
true.
· Without
validation, the utility ignores versioning on content. With validation, if the
content type is under versioning, it will not update the content.
· Page
cache is not flushed by BulkLoader. as page cache is persistent, the cache should be cleared
prior to running BulkApprover
· BulkApprover
requires running WebCenter Sites as it is implemented via Sites tags
· Flex
filters are not fired (for example, FieldCopier)
· BulkLoader does
not support BLOBs; for this you should use XMLPost
· Start
and End date can't be specified nor configured for bulk transferred assets
using BulkLoader.
· BulkLoader
should not be executed while WebCenter Sites is running
· When
assets are added using BulkLoader, the assets will
not be indexed in Lucene. You will need to re-indexed
after import.
· BulkApprover will
not update the PubAsset Table to reflect the publish
status after running Approve and Mark_Publish
· Running
multiple BulkLoader instances is not recommended
unless it is performing the same operations for example, all insert or all
update and multiple source tables do not refer to the same asset. Doing so will
cause data corruption.
· If
revision tracking is enabled for an object table, and then you delete the table
using CatalogManager, WebCenter Sites still thinks
that the table is being revision tracked.
· Sites
allows the value in the tablename column in the SystemSQL table to be null. However, for resultset caching to work properly, this value must be
specified.
· You cannot log into Sites if the username you are using to log in has the same "id" value of a different user in the SystemUsers table. For example, DefaultReader has an ID value of 2. If you create a user with the username "2," that user cannot log in.
· CatalogMover does
not export from columns that hold BLOBS. For example, a table is created with a
column using the data type specified by the property cc.blob.
An image is uploaded to the table. When CatalogMover
exports the row, the image is not written to the export data.
· Use of
the browser back button is not supported in this release
· Approval
and Delete listing screens shows references based on evaluation of the layout
template. If the layout template execution fails for any reason, the assets
presented in the tables may not be correct.
· Page
Layout allows for multiple levels of nested slots. However the slot properties
are only for the first two levels. The tool allows drag and drop to multiple
levels however.
· Drag
and drop in Contributor UI will not work if the page uses an iframe
· TextArea
attribute editor is not supported for editing in Web Mode, CKEditor should be
used
· Clarkii
Image Editor is not supported in Web Mode
· Use of
IE in Compatibility Mode is not supported
· For a
CSDT export created from Content Server 7.6 patch 2, import will not succeed if
it contains Page Assets. The recommendation is to upgrade to Sites 11gR1 and
then re-export using the CSDT Plug-in for this version before the next import.
· CSDT
does not support assets enabled for revision tracking
· Sites
11gR1 uses the length specification for strings, to specify the underlying
database column sizes in bytes. When specifying the max length of a text field,
keep in mind that multi byte characters will need more bytes per character.
· When cs.use.short.jsp.names=false (the new default value - used
to be true by default), JSP elements that contain dots (such as
"www.xyz.com/common/flexLinkButton") will not get deployed properly.
They will be deployed without the .jsp extension so
the AppServer won't know how to run them. To work
around this, clients who use dots in their jsp
element names should set cs.use.short.jsp.names=true.
· Installing
on Solaris Sparc must be performed using a 1.6 JDK,
the actual application server may run Java 1.7 however if 1.7 is used for the
installer it will result in a core dump due to an AWT library exception
· If your
installation of WebCenter Sites fails, take the following steps before
re-executing the installation:
o Drop
the database tables
o Undeploy
the .ear/.war file
o Delete
the Sites installation folder
o Restart
the Application / Web Servers
· When
installing a Web Server in between Remote Satellite Server and Sites, you must
set the cookie header property http.protocol.single-cookie-header=true
in the httpaccess.properties file and place it in the
<remote_satellite_server install
folder>/WEB-INF/classes folder
· For
security reasons, we recommend that only internal access is provided for the
following servlets:
o Install
o HelloCS
o CatalogManager
o TreeManager
o CacheServer
o Inventory
· Persisting
cache to disk wipes out Last Access Time and hit count on RSS
· Ensure
that the maximum number of open file handles for your publish destination
Operating System is set to 65000, the source system should be at least 32000.
These numbers are only a guideline and may need to be adjusted based on type of
data and size of publish operations.
· Export to Disk - Exported page effectively rendered with wrong template when using SIMPLENAME. Contact support for a utility to remove the duplicate pub keys
· The INPUTFORM tag support is limited in ASSET API when creating basic asset types via REST. As a result, unsupported INPUTFORM TYPES are interpreted as <INPUTFORM TYPE="TEXT" WIDTH="48" REQUIRED="YES"/>. In order for users to see proper asset type attributes in WebCenter Sites UI's, the INPUTFORM tags need to be updated in the asset descriptor file through the database (AssetType table in Sites Explorer).
· Setting
BufferingConfig.xml to use multiple threads is not supported
· It is
possible to create duplicate fw_uid if you perform a
GET and use PUT on the resulting bean when using REST API. In this scenario a
new asset with a different asset id will be created but it will still have the
same fw_uid. The workaround is to clear the fw_uid in the bean before PUT.
· When using
REST API the following message is displayed on the server side and can be
safely ignored:
com.sun.jersey.core.impl.provider.xml.SAXParserContextProvider getInstance
WARNING: JAXP feature XMLConstants.FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING cannot be set on a SAXParserFactory. External general entity processing is
disabled but other potential security related features will not be enabled.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException: http://javax.xml.XMLConstants/feature/secure-processing
· Sites and Satellite Server have
to be in the same time zone
· Lucene fails to index text that
comes after dashes, underscores and other special characters
·
If indexing takes longer than the cs.timeout setting, exceptions will be thrown and indexing
may be in an unstable state. The timeout should be adjusted based on the size
of index
· SQL
Server only stores milliseconds up to 3.33 millisecond precision with data type
DATETIME
· WebCenter Sites does not support indexing legacy Word95 documents and throws exceptions in the logs.
· Lucene
standard analyzer treats words differently if they contain a hyphen (-)
For example:
ABC-DEF-HIJ is sometimes indexed as one word and sometimes indexed separately as "ABC" and "DEF-HIJ", when this occurs, searching for "ABC-DEF-HIJ" will not always return the proper results.
· Search for text within XML or HTML tags is not supported
· Site
Capture application needs to run on context root. This is required to enable
the preview functionality to render pages inside the archive which may have any
context root. The application needs to be deployed on its own application
server.
·
Status messages are not shown in the
application user interface; check the crawler.log file for log messages.
· When previewing the crawled site in Site Capture Admin App, there is no indication when an external link is being viewed (e.g. if your download archive has a link to an external site, clicking on that link in preview mode will redirect to the external site).
·
Site Capture does not support running
over https in this release
·
Creating a site without a Preview asset
assigned results in errors in the log which can be safely ignored
[CS.XCELERATE.ASSET][ERROR] error: unable to load asset type information for Variables.previewAssetType, in tag asset.load pagename:OpenMarket/Xcelerate/Admin/SiteFront" and "[CS.XML][ERROR] object.get no object named previewAsset"
· Site
names that include a hyphen '-' are not supported if using LDAP
· If
Windows is configured using the "Show All Folders" option, if your
session times out and you are using Sites DocLink, the
login window will appear when explorer loads the shortcuts
·
Revision Tracking of DocLink assets is
not supported in this release
· Revision
Tracking and Workflow are not supported from Sites Desktop in this release.
·
Choice of values
entered for variant attribute used in insite:calltemplate must be applicable to
all types valid for clegal argument
·
Wrapper pages with "." in the
name will not execute. Templates and Site Entry assets should not have dot (.)
in their name.
·
Do not use the tag <throwexception> in the code of a template asset. <throwexception> effectively
kills execution in Sites for itself and any nested or parent Sites engine. This
breaks template execution and streaming of data to the client. In addition,
when a user approves a template for export publish, a <throwexception>
terminates the execution of the approval page and the user gets no feedback.
·
No warning is given regarding potential
for broken pages when deleting templates. Users should delete templates with
care as if they are used as default in assets, the delete will result in
failure to render those pages.
· ics.CommitBatchedCommands() does
not return the correct status or set the errno
variable properly in every situation.
· JSP
processing adds whitespace
· When
using asset:export / asset.export tags on an asset that isn't a page or
collection, the output XML doesn't contain info about the unnamed associations.
· The
Asset API Tutorial contains example byte d = fileObj.getBinary();
However
getBinary()
no longer exist. It has been changed to getBinaryStream() which returns an InputStream.
Instead of byte d = fileObj.getBinary() , the example should be
changed to:
byte d = newbyte[fileObj.getBinaryStream().available()];
· The
XML tag ASSET.DELETEREVISION, which deletes a specific revision of the asset,
fails to execute. JSP variant asset:deleterevision
should be used.
· If an
editorial user is added to the UI and that user is not given SiteGod privileges, the user cannot edit Recommendation
assets if they are more than static list recommendations. The following error
appears on the screen:
Error
-3 encountered while saving. Error: errno=-3 on call
to catalog manager for table 'RuleSetDef'
· Downloading
thread dumps from the System Tools is not supported for WebSphere
· 500 error is
thrown if you browse directly to Sites-Cache status when AssetCache is not
started or enabled
·
Pasting text using Ctrl+V
into the query box of the Log Viewer triggers View Logs function. The correct
short cut for log viewer functionality is Ctrl + shift + V
· Downloaded
log files from System Tools doesn't include information from cas.log
· Right
click REFRESH does not refresh page for Thread Info, Sites Info, and DB Info
· Message
"An error has occurred" appears when attempting to view logs in Log
Viewer if the logs are empty.
· "No
access allowed" messages appear multiple times when permissions are insufficient
for viewing table information in DB Info
· Unable
to run the File System test multiple times without changing the type of test to
run.
· System
Tools, File System Test information is not displayed in graph form in Internet
Explorer. To view this graph use Firefox
· When
creating a new AssetMaker Assettype, using the tab
key to move through the fields will result in the Browse button disappearing
from view. Clicking in the area where the button originally appeared will allow
Browse to continue.
· Setting the
property - xcelerate.showSiteTree property to false
does not turn the applet off in Admin UI
· When
Sites is configured to use hierarchical LDAP, if the user only has access to
the Management Site and you log into the Admin UI, the tree tab loads and shows
the tabs, but all the tabs are empty.
· Assets
deleted in the Contributor UI are not reflected in the Analytics data.txt
· When a
revision tracked asset is deleted, on the initial inspection of asset,
AssetCache shows this asset with updated time and valid dependency which is
incorrect
· Uploading a
BLOB larger than 5MB will result in an exception:
"Error met serializing /
deserializing <Assettype ID> for copying purpose in AssetCache".
This can be safely ignored.
· <render:LogDep> could cause un-linked
cache If there is an un-recognized rendermode passed, the system will cache the
page and not log the dependencies. This will cause the page not being flushed
in any way since there dependencies are not there. The correct behavior should
be:
1.
Cache the page and log the dependencies anyway or
2. If the dependencies are not logged, do not cache the page.
·
Any blob which is not supposed to be
cached by the Satellite Server will be added under <sscachedir>/uncachedblob. This directory can grow if blobs are not
being cached on the satellite server. The content of
this directory can be safely deleted at any time. It can be deleted manually or
by using the FlushServer reset call. Note: FlushServer
reset call will also clear all the cache from the Satellite Server
· Selecting text
and moving it to a new location within the editor does not succeed in Internet
Explorer. Firefox should be used for this.
· In Web Mode, if using
multivalued CKEditor attributes, when in the reorder popup, the buttons for
AddLink and Include will show as active, they should not in this view.
· In Web Mode, if using
multivalued CKEditor attributes, when in the reorder popup, removing one value
will result in the editor no longer being accessible for the remaining values.
It is recommended to make changes to the attributes in Form or Web Mode and not
in the popup window.
· Upgraded
assets may have an extra <p> <span> added when viewed in Form Mode
post upgrade. This can be resolved by changing the attribute to use the updated
CKEditor.
· For assets created prior to Content Server 7.5 Patch 1 - If the first piece of data in the FCKEditor window is an embedded link or included asset, you must switch to source view to add additional content prior to the embedded link or included asset. Similarly, if the last asset is an embedded link or included asset, source view must also be used to add additional content immediately following the link or included asset.
· Changes
to templates will not render in Preview if the change was made in Form Mode
unless a browser refresh is done. It is recommended to change the template for
an asset in Web Mode to avoid this.
· Locale
field will be empty in edit mode and user will be unable to select a locale if
there are none enabled for the site. To resolve this make sure that there is a
subtype Locale added to the Dimension assettype and the site is also selected.
· If there
are no children for a tree node and the node is placed in the content tree
below a node which does have children the childless node will display the
children of other nodes
· If there
is a failure due to template compatibility reasons while swapping a slot, the
original slot content is cleared. Refresh or cancel the save to revert back to
the previously saved state.
· File
names for downloaded files contain a random prefix.
· Generic
Server error is displayed in the sites log file when viewing uploaded documents
with Word 2007, this can be safely ignored.
· In web
mode if there is a problem in the template code for insite tags, then the page
keeps showing loading because it gets a client side JavaScript error
· While file
upload is in progress, changing the view will result in a failed upload. Wait
until the upload is successfully completed before changing apps or moving to
other tabs.
· When working
in web mode and making changes to CKEditor or other attribute fields, click
outside the attribute editor to register the unsaved changes.
· Upon
initial dropping of an asset into a slot, the properties may show the assetname
as (undefined). This is resolved on save
· For
multivalued BLOB attribute, use the browse button in the reorder popup rather
than the upload that appears in the minitoolbar to prevent errors on saving.
· Bookmarks are not appearing in
the Tree for sites that are imported using CSDT. To resolve this, edit and save
the bookmark tree tab in Admin.
· When
dragging and dropping from the docked search the avatar window (showing the
asset name in blue ) tends to hide behind the search
– BUG ?
· Duplicate
SmartList names are not supported. Adding or sharing a SmartList with a name
that already exists for the site will result in no response on add request.
· Drag
and Drop of page to the Site Plan Tree is not supported. Doing so may result in
the tree node indicator to spin and not return results, other operations are
able to continue during this time except action initiated from the node of the
site plan tree that is no longer responding.
· Moving of
the Dashboard Widgets in the Home tab is not possible in Internet Explorer 9.
· Progress
bar is not displayed accurately for large (>64MB) file uploads for Basic
Assets.
· Setting
bs.security=true results in blobs failing to render in Web Mode or Preview
· Setting
bs.security=true results in a failure of the blob to render correctly on create
screen, inspect will display properly.
·
Changes to the presentation of a slot
are not copied during an asset copy operation in Web Mode.
· tmpObjects table
is used for storing temporary binary objects. Some of the temporary binary
objects may remain in this table if the user cancels asset operations after
having uploaded binary files. Entries in this table should be periodically
cleaned up during downtime.
· When
creating templates using the existing element option, if the specified element
does not exist, an empty template will be created in Sites but cannot be exported
· If
filename length of exported file exceeds the OS filename limitation, the file
cannot be exported. This is likely to happen if filename of uploaded blob is
too long.
· Deleting a
site does not update the information on the exported assets. The workaround is
to first unshare the assets from the site which you wish to delete then delete
the site.
· Deleting of non-asset resources
should be done manually on each destination. This is currently no sync for
deleted non-asset resources
· User
must be cautious of the order which resources are imported. Consider situation
where all developers have A points to B in their
system. Then one developer changes A to point to C and deletes B. If other
developers were to sync B before A, the import will fail since you cannot
delete an asset that is being referenced.
· During import, you may experience some indexing data exceptions. This will only affect the search index and not the actual data import. Re-Index the affected asset types after the import if necessary.
· Resources
that contain fw_uids which include slashes or commas cannot be exported
· The
Sync and FW workspace views in Eclipse do not properly display UTF-8 characters
on Windows.

· SiteCatalog
resources do not contain a dependency on the ElementCatalog resource. These
currently need to be exported/imported manually
· The
CSDT Eclipse Plug-in auto complete will add double quotes if your AppServer does not support this, the double quotes must be
changed to single quotes manually
· Recommendation selection criteria "Random" will organize based on the weighted rating.
· The index
on VMVisitorAlias that puts a unique constraint on the combination of

· If using multiple parents, they should all use the same Parent Select Style
· For
installs on AIX or SPARC 64bit systems, user should copy the contents of
<installer home>/sigar/bin/AIX64 or <installer home>/sigar/bin/Sparc64
depending upon OS to <sites_home>/bin replacing the existing files. This
is required due to outstanding issue of only the 32 bit binaries being copied
during install process.

install after entering passwords requires that the passwords be reentered or
the system defaults will be used.
· During

the site plan.
· When you
use an invalid multi-ticket in a REST call to SS, instead of redirecting to the
login screen, it throws an exception:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Failed to parse assertion for multi ticket xxx
When
you use an invalid multi-ticket in a REST call to SS, it does redirect to the
login screen. However, instead of generating a ticket and displaying the
requested information, the redirect fails, and an error is shown.

REST call using an invalid ticket or multi-ticket via the browser while you are
logged into Sites will be successful as it will use the session ticket (#30028)

· Viewing the
version of a revision tracked asset where the parent has been deleted will
display a blank screen
· If
access to Checkout is denied, clicking on the Checkout button in Contributor UI
will result in no response.
· Deleting an
asset that was associated to a revision tracked asset removes all associations
on rollback
· Content-type header is lost when
a wrapper page is called using Co-resident Satellite Server. Sites logs
"Unable to set header (header name) because the header has already been committed”
The
workaround is to increase the application server response buffer size.
· Unable
to view document uploaded into the previous version of an asset from the show
versions view. To view the earlier saved document version user can use the

fields are not marked as "Required" in DocLink Edit Configuration
screen. But From Sites DocLink Client interface its
prompting properly for all required fields problem only with Edit Configuration
field.

characters are not displayed
properly in the search box in Contributor UI

Setting roles in insite:calltemplate
results in inability to edit primary asset
· The
POST tag works incorrectly when USERNAME, PASSWORD or LOGOUT attributes are

· SEARCHSTATE.ADDRICHTEXTCONSTRAINT
fails when the resultset returns more than 1000 rows.
· Unable
to delete page and basic assets using asset:void tag if a valid pubid

in the session to "0", then remove it again after voiding.
·
Case sensitivity of sorting is
inconsistent
· Site names with special characters or symbols are not getting deleted. Delete the site using Advanced UI in this case
· Deleting a site does not clean up the Apps assigned to the site. To resolve this, manually remove the site entries from the urlaccessroles column in FW_Applications table using Sites Explorer
· Cannot
assign roles to a user who has stale group membership data. The workaround for
this is to edit and save the user in the WEM Admin UI
·
The SiteAdmin
role is not added to the user for WEM Admin by default when the user has been
assigned SiteAdmin role in another site. The user
should be manually assigned access to the WEM Admin App if required.
· If the
last accessed application or asset no longer exists, subsequent login to Sites
will result in blank screen. To resolve this clear the cookie from the browser
cache.
·
Shared roles need to be reselected if a
workflow report is edited after initial save.
· DashUser is
listed in list of Workflow Participants if the user was part of the group
before upgrade. This user role should be removed and replaced with SitesUser
· If you
select a workflow for an asset, then go to the Set Participants form, then
click the Cancel button, the workflow is set to all participants, as if you had
selected the Select All button.
