New Application & Track

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

I'm new to NWDI, thus trying to get my concepts around it clear before I mess up with the stuff at my project. Say I've already created a track that contains the development configs for ESS business package. By importing this track into NWDI, I can customize the components within ESS and then check it in via DTR of NWDI.

If I've created a new application (portal application) and have already deployed it to server, but I want to customize the application now, do I need to add it into my track so I can see it in the DTR? Kind souls pls help!

Thanks,

Zhenmin

THanks Srikanth, I'll try with that method!

Srikanth is using the wrong DC type. You should use Portal Application Standalone like I mentioned before.

Hi Pascal,

Could you elaborate on how to import it into the DTR?

Hi,

If I understood it correctly , you have a local par file in NWDS. This needs to be imported to DTR.

Go to Development Configuration perspective, select the Track and right click on SC to create a new DC. For DC type select 'Enterprise portal - Portal Application module'. Click 'Next', this will have two options. Select the second option 'Import project from a par file' , browse the par file from your local disk and continue.

Finally activate the requests, now you par file is available in DTR.

Hi Zhenmin

If its a .par file you cant use NWDI. But you can download .par file anytime using support role. If it is .ear file ask the developer.

If the .par file contains the source code, you can create a Portal Application Standalone DC and import the source code into the DTR.
