UCM: default datepicker with idoc

If you need to include a datepicker in a page template or in an hcsp and you won't use jquery, you can use the default UCM calendar with datepicker.
Check the following code as an example:



FROM:<input type="text" id="calendarFrom" />
<img onClick="javascript: pucToggleCalendar('calendarFrom');" border="0" style="cursor: pointer; cursor:hand; vertical-align: middle;" src="images/PopUpCalendar/calendar.png"/>

TO:<input type="text" id="calendarTo">
<img onClick="javascript: pucToggleCalendar('calendarTo');" border="0" style="cursor: pointer; cursor:hand; vertical-align: middle;" src="images/PopUpCalendar/calendar.png"/>

<script type="text/javascript">
pucCreateCalendar({ id: "calendarFrom",caption: "From date"}, "calendarFrom");
pucCreateCalendar({ id: "calendarTo",caption: "To date"}, "calendarTo");
</script>


Pay attention to include "std_checkin_html_head_declarations" in your template ; the static javascript code (with the "pucToggleCalendar" function) used to create the popup is included in that resource:

<$include std_checkin_html_head_declarations$>

Linux: boot with terminal

I've just finished installing "stuff" on a VM with Oracle Enterprise Linux and I need to configure the machine without the resource consuming X11 automatically loaded at startup.

The Linux boot process has six states of operation of which "0" is the shutdown state and "3" and above are fully operational with all essential processes running for user interaction. The init process is the last step of the boot procedure and it is identified by process with id=1; Init is responsible for starting system processes as defined in the "/etc/inittab" file.

Editing the inittab file, I changed the default line:

id:5:initdefault:

with the following:

id:3:initdefault:

Here there are the available states:

0 halt system (loaded the /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/ library)
1 single user (/etc/rc.d/rc1.d/)
2 multiuser with no network (...2.d)
3 terminal
4 reserved for local use
5 X11 GUI mode
6 reboot


After startup type "starx" or "init 5" to enter X11.

WLS: embedded LDAP client access

To view the entries of the embedded LDAP server through an LDAP client browser, first of all you have to change the embedded LDAP credentials:

1. Access WLS admin console
2. Expand the Domain node.
3. Select the Security-->Embedded LDAP tab.
4. Change the Credential attribute from its generated value to a new password
5. Click SAVE.
6. At last, reboot WebLogic Server.

Now configure a new connection in the LDAP browser (as a suggestion, I use Apache Directory Studio based on Eclipse).

Use the http server port 7001 (7002 if SSL is being used), "dc=[UCM_DOMAIN_NAME]" as the base dn, cn=Admin as the ldap administration user with the newly created password.
