21.4.5 Testing Oracle SES Connections

Confirm the Oracle SES connection by entering in a browser the URL for Oracle SES Web Services operations: http:host:portsearchquery If the URL address does not render in the browser, then either the host or port for the Oracle SES server is incorrect, or Oracle SES has not been started. Note: To effect this change you must restart the managed server on which the WebCenter application is deployed. For more information, see Section 8.2, Starting and Stopping Managed Servers for WebCenter Application Deployments. Note: To effect this change you must restart the managed server on which the WebCenter application is deployed by default, WC_Spaces. For more information, see the section Starting and Stopping WebLogic Managed Servers Using the Command Line in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide. 21-18 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle WebCenter

21.5 Configuring Oracle SES to Search WebCenter Portal Applications

With WebCenter Portal applications, Oracle SES is set as the default and preferred search platform. Configuring Oracle SES to search WebCenter Portal applications requires similar steps to configuring Oracle SES to search WebCenter Spaces applications, but WebCenter Portal applications do not support the Oracle WebCenter Spaces Crawler. This section describes the steps to set up Oracle SES to search WebCenter Portal applications: ■ Section 21.5.1, Setting Up Oracle Content Server for Oracle SES Search ■ Section 21.5.2, Setting Up Oracle WebCenter Discussions for Oracle SES Search ■ Section 21.5.3, Setting Up Oracle SES to Search WebCenter ■ Section 21.5.4, Setting Up WebCenter for Oracle SES Search

21.5.1 Setting Up Oracle Content Server for Oracle SES Search

This section describes how to configure Oracle Content Server to be crawlable by Oracle SES in particular, the Oracle Content Server that WebCenter uses for storing documents. The following steps must be done from within Oracle Content Server. 1. Create the role sescrawlerrole. 2. Create the user sescrawler, and assign it the admin role and the sescrawlerrole role. This user creates the Oracle Content Server source in Oracle SES. 3. Add sceCrawlerRole=sescrawlerrole to config.cfg. 4. Restart Oracle Content Server. 5. In the Oracle Content Server console, install the SESCrawlerExport component on the content server, if not done: a. Log on to Oracle Content Server as a system administrator. For example: http:host:portcs.

b. From the Administration dropdown menu, select Admin Server

Note: For an overview of the tasks that must be performed to enable Oracle SES as the search engine in WebCenter Portal applications, see Section 21.2, Configuration Roadmaps for Oracle SES in WebCenter. There may be various acceptable ways and orders to perform the required tasks. See Also: Section 21.1, What You Should Know About WebCenter Search with Oracle SES
