RSS Feed component in Portal Builder

Hi,

To enable external RSS news feeds in your WebCenter applications, you need to set up a proxy server by using Fusion Middleware Control or WLST.

SO,i recommend you to set up a proxy server as mentioned below.

20.2 RSS Prerequisites

20.3 Setting Up a Proxy Server for External RSS News Feeds

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_rss.htm#WCADM5523

While it looks like a timeout issue, the root cause is a missing proxy setup to view

any external feeds.

If you don't know the proxy information for your environment, contact your network administrator.

Hi,

I am not having any example but you can implement the RSS feature in Webcenter.

You can try the following steps after implement a proxy host and proxy port so you can implement the RSS feature in Webcenter.

* Add an RSS Feed from the Catalog
* editing the component and add the following url
* RSS Feed URL = http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories

Hi,

Use the following as an example:

   proxyHost='<Company Proxy url>',proxyPort='nn'

Commands:

=========

Navigate to the (Webcenter_Home) directory where the wlst command exists:

    /home/apps/FMwHome/Webcenter/common/bin

Execute wlst.sh:

[bin]$ ./wlst.sh

Connect to the server:

connect('weblogic','welcome1','t3://MyServer:7001')

Set the Proxy Host and Port:

setRssProxyConfig(appName='webcenter', proxyHost='<Company Proxy url>',proxyPort='nn')

For more information,review the document which i have pointed to you in my last update.

You need to provide the Proxy Host and port on which the proxy server is running.

If you don't know the proxy information for your environment,Please check with your network administrator.

Hi,

To enable external RSS news feeds in WebCenter Portal or a Portal Framework application, you must set up a proxy server.

A proxy server is also required if you want to display external links in Activity Stream task flows. Both RSS and the activity stream share the same proxy server settings.

You can configure a proxy server by using either Fusion Middleware Control or WLST. For information, see Section 8.2.4, "Setting Up a Proxy Server."
