i-fix Name: PK32712 Problem Summary: Subscriber does not resolve AlternateDesignCmpnt and LinkCmpnt references correctly and fails to save items correctly during syndication update. Detailed Problem Description: Subscriber does not resolve AlternateDesignCmpnt and LinkCmpnt references correctly and fails to save items correctly during syndication update. ContentService.getDraft() throws NullPointerException if Draft Workspace does not exist Creating DeletionDocumentSummary for Content removal fails if Site/SiteArea/Presentation Template does not exist Problem Analysis: SyndicationReferenceResolver does n't get correct references for AlternateDesignCmpnt & LinkCmpnt. It fails to save them since the node references that are set from TransformerUtils is different. If Draft is deleted ContentService.getDraft() throws Null Pointer Exception. During Syndication of All Items Subscriber retrieves the deleted items also from Syndicator and stores it in System folder before deleting them. getAncestors() fails if the item is in System folder. Failing Module: WCM - Web Content Management (General) Problem Solution: Fix getReferences() for AlternateDesignCmpnt & LinkCmpnt to add missing references. Modify ContentService.getDraft() function so that it throws ItemNotFoundException if Draft does n't exist Modify DeletionDocumentSummary.updateFromControllable so that it handles null for Ancestors. Affected Users: All Users Requisites: pre-requisite Portal Component: WCM 6.0.0.0 GA build 298.0 pre-requisite interim fixes: PK32457, PK31957 (these also pre-req: PK31330, PK31335, PK30057, PK31637, PK31598, PK31363) Platform Specific: No Fix pack: This fix will be integrated into WP v6.0.1 Installation Steps: NOTE: YOU MUST FIRST DOWNLOAD THE UPDATE INSTALLER TOOL IN ORDER TO INSTALL A FIX. The Portal Update Installer can be downloaded from the following link: http://www.ibm.com/software/genservers/portal/support Preparation: If you have changed the CellName from the default values during the installation of Portal, you would need to also update this change in the [WPS_ROOT]\config\wpconfig.properties file. If you have not changed the default CellName value during the Portal installation, you can skip this step, and continue. - Go to [WPS_ROOT]\config\wpconfig.properties - Search for the "CellName=" field - Change the CellName to point to what you have changed it too, during the installation. Install: - Create a temporary "fix" directory to store the jar file. - Copy jar file to this directory. - Shutdown WebSphere Portal. - Ensure the pre-requisite fix(es) are installed. - Follow the fix installation instructions that are packaged with the Portal Update Installer on how to install a fix. NOTE: If a pre-requisite fix is not installed, the Portal Update Installer will fail and will list the missing pre-requisite fix(es). - Restart WebSphere Portal. - Update the deployed remote rendering portlet: - Log in to Portal as the Portal Administrator - Navigate to: Administration / Portlet Management / Web Modules - Find and select the remote rendering portlet web module - Click the Update Portlet Icon to the right of the selected portlet - Select the portlet WAR file located in: [PortalServer]\installableApps - Click Next and Finish - Log out of Portal for the changes to take effect. Refer to the "Maintaining the cluster" section of the Portal Information Center for information on installing fixes in clustered environments while maintaining continuous availability of your Portal. Note: If you are tryng to deploy the ifix on a horizontal cluster, Before you run the portal update installer, please take note of the cell name of your deployment manager. You can get the cell nameby going to the deployment manager machine, open /profiles//config/cell//cell.xml and there will be a field indicating the cellname. (by default its called servernameCell01) For each node you are applying the ifix too, you need to: - Go into /config/ - Open up wpconfig.properties - Search for the properties Field "CellName=" - Change it to point to the deployment manager's cellname. i.e. "CellName=DeploymentManagerCell" Un-Installation Steps: NOTE: FIXES MUST BE REMOVED IN THE ORDER THEY WERE APPLIED. DO NOT REMOVE A FIX UNLESS ALL FIXES APPLIED AFTER IT HAVE FIRST BEEN REMOVED. YOU MAY REAPPLY ANY REMOVED FIX. - Shutdown WebSphere Portal. - Follow the instructions that are packaged with the Portal Update Installer on how to uninstall a fix. - Restart WebSphere Portal. - Update the deployed remote rendering portlet: - Log in to Portal as the Portal Administrator - Navigate to: Administration / Portlet Management / Web Modules - Find and select the remote rendering portlet web module - Click the Update Portlet Icon to the right of the selected portlet - Select the portlet WAR file located in: [PortalServer]\installableApps - Click Next and Finish - Log out of Portal for the changes to take effect.
