ATG Search - how estore(commerce instance) forms the search engine SOAP URL ?

The comminucation between the Commerce box and the Search engine is through SOAP. Read  more about this architecture @ http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.in/2011/11/atg-search-architectural-flow-search.html

The commerce instance forms the SOAP url just like the below code:

private URL getSearchEngineURL(SearchEngine engine) {
      SearchEnvironmentHost h =  engine.getSearchEnvironmentHost();
      SearchMachine hi = h.getSearchMachine() ;
      return new URL("http://" + hi.getHostname() + ":" + engine.getPort() + "/AEXmlService/");
  }

So the commerce instance need the hi.getHostname()  and engine.getPort() to form the url. It is obtained as below:


1. The component /atg/commerce/search/refinement/CommerceFacetSearchService has the siteName defined, which will be pointing to the environment name defined in the Search Project. Read  more about this search project setup @ http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.in/2012/01/atg-search-how-to-create-search-project.html

          siteName=SearchProjectLocal

2. By using the above siteName, the commerce instance will obtain the search enigne hostbox name just like the below query :

       select * from rout_host_inf  where id =( select host_info_id from rout_host where parent_env_id = ( select id from rout_env where env_name = 'SearchProjectLocal' ) )   --> The hi.getHostname() got from here

3. By using the above siteName, the commerce instance will obtain the search enigne hostbox name just like the below query :

      select * from rout_engine where host_id = (select id from rout_host where parent_env_id = (select id from rout_env where env_name = 'SearchProjectLocal')) --> The engine.getPort() got from here

    How does the engine information get populated in the SearchConfigurationRepository for a remote store instance ?

    Both the remote store and CA ( content administrator or search administrator or ATG-BCC ) will point to the same SearchConfigurationRepository. So when the Search Project get created @ Search administrator, it will get reflected @ SearchConfigurationRepository with the new search engine information and if a new indexing happens, that information also get updated @ SearchConfigurationRepository.

    How do you delete a search project without using the UI?

    You need to remove the project from srch_project table and its ref. and child tables.

    The following set of queries might help you. Make sure that you use it wisely. :-)

    --To delete a search project that is not created correctly:

    select * from ROUT_INDEX order by est_start desc
    delete from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null

    select * from rout_dep_hist where time_ended is null
    delete from rout_dep_hist where time_ended is null

    select * from rout_log_part where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null)
    delete from rout_log_part where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null)

    select * from rout_phys_part_m where log_part_id in ( select id from rout_log_part where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null))
    delete from rout_phys_part_m where log_part_id in ( select id from rout_log_part where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null))

    select * from rout_idx_log_parts where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null)
    delete from rout_idx_log_parts where parent_index in ( select id from ROUT_INDEX where est_start is null)

    select * from srch_sync_task where srch_project_id = '1900001'
    delete from srch_sync_task where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_env_p_m where srch_project_id = '1900001'
    delete from srch_env_p_m where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_sync_task_def where srch_project_id = '1900001'
    delete from srch_sync_task_def where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_css_id_to_targ_ids where srch_project_id = '1900001'
    delete from srch_css_id_to_targ_ids where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_project where id = '1900001'
    delete from srch_project where id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_project_custom_ds
    delete from srch_project_custom_ds where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from srch_project_custom_dsm
    delete from srch_project_custom_dsm where srch_project_id = '1900001'

    select * from rout_host
    delete from rout_host

    select * from rout_env
    delete from rout_env

    -- To delete and invalid search index to clean up:

    select * from rout_dep_hist where new_index = 2100001
    delete from rout_dep_hist where new_index = 2100001

    select * from rout_idx_log_parts where parent_index =2100001
    delete from rout_idx_log_parts where parent_index =2100001

    select * from rout_phys_part_m where phys_part_id =2100001
    delete from rout_phys_part_m where phys_part_id =2100001

    select * from rout_log_part where parent_index = 2100001
    DELETE from rout_log_part where parent_index = 2100001

    select * from rout_part where id =2100001
    delete from rout_part where id =2100001

    select * from rout_index where id =2100001
    delete from rout_index where id =2100001

Eclipse Kepler - good features of Eclipse 4.3 ( Eclipse Kepler ) JDT / Workbench

Detached windows with sash When you detach a view or editor into its own separate window, it now has all the capabilities of a normal workbench window. They now support multiple stacks of views separated by sashes with arbitrary layouts. The detached parts will remain synchronized with the master window that they were detached from. This is especially handy for people developing with two or more monitors, so they can spread views across several monitors and keep them synchronized. Import nested projects The Import Projects wizard now has an option to continue searching for projects to import recursively within any project it finds. This allows you to import physically nested projects at the same time. Open Resource dialog enhancements The Open Resource (Ctrl+Shift+R) dialog now offers direct access to the Show In and Open With menus via drop-down buttons.

ATG Order update - InvalidVersionException and ConcurrentUpdateException

ATG repository item descriptor can have the version property. The atg.adapter.gsa.ItemTransactionState holds this version information. For example consider the Order item-descriptor. It has the version property defined against the table dcspp_order. Means, the dcspp_order table has the column version which defines which version of order is currently in the DB. Each order update flow will update this column.  <property name="version" display-name-resource="version" data-type="int" queryable="true" readable="true" column-name="version" hidden="false" category-resource="categoryInfo" expert="true" required="false" cache-mode="inherit" writable="true">     <attribute name="uiwritable" value="false"/>     <attribute name="propertySortPriority" value="30"/>   </property> ------------------------------- Du...

ATG Search troubleshooting tips

In this blog, I have listed some basic ATG Search troubleshooting tips in some general scenarios. 1. If the index did not deploy, consider the following possible causes : Is the DeployShare property configured @ /atg/search/routing/LaunchingService component ?  Is enough space available @ deployment share box for the index ?  Are the RMI ports configured correctly in the RoutingSystemService component ?  If the search engine application is running in a separate box, this application is invoked through a RemoteLauncher running in these boxes. Check whether these RemoteLaunchers are running in these boxes ? 2. If you have trouble in launching one or more search engines, try the following remedies: If the Search engine is standalone, set the /atg/search/routing/LaunchingService component’s engineDir property to the absolute path of the Search engine directory.  3. Search unavailable in the estore page, even when the SearchEngine is in "Running" st...
