Merging 2 roles

Posted on Sep 23, 2005 at 10:05 AM 21 Views

Hi all,

Trying something fairly simple here, i'm merging 2 roles which have the same navigational structure, except the second role is complementing an additional item to role 1 (more advanced user).

Problem is, as soon as those get merged, and I log in with the respective user (with the 2 roles) the portal it seems doesn't know which one to display first and the navigation stays unselected and an error is displayed.

I recall having this problem in the past and it had to do with the fact that each role has a defined Entry Point, but I don't recall the solution.

I've set priority on the entry points to be different. One is 100 the other is 40 but it makes no difference..

Anyone recall troubleshooting this ?

    Dimitar,

    Have you set merge ids for the contents of the roles being merged?

    Thanks for the link George, eventhough I had not looked at that specific document, I did follow the same logic in my definitions.

    Detlev, this is the java error displayed in the content area instead of the first node (page) of the merged result :

    -

    Portal Runtime Error

    An exception occurred while processing a request for :

    iView : pcd:portal_content/com.bd/desktops/BDDesktop/frameworkPages/frameworkpage/com.sap.portal.innerpage/com.sap.portal.contentarea

    Component Name : com.sap.portal.navigation.contentarea.default

    com.sapportals.portal.pcd.gl.PcdGlContext.

    If I would then look into the portal_logger I see the following java exception :

    -

    The portal is an SP2, I think the problem does not occur on NW04 portals, though I need to test that to be absolutely sure.
