Prior to go-live, it's important to establish custom error pages to prevent unexpected behavior from those pesky 500 HTTP status codes. Although you could perform a similar implementation using the Apache Web Server, you may also configure custom error pages using Hybris Commerce's web.xml file using the following XML snippet: <error-page> <error-code>500</error-code> <location>/WEB-INF/views/mobile/pages/error/ServerError.jsp</location> </error-page> <error-page> <error-code>503</error-code> <location>/WEB-INF/views/mobile/pages/error/ServerError.jsp</location> </error-page> <error-page> <exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type> <location>/WEB-INF/views/mobile/pages/error/ServerError.jsp</location> </error-page>

ImpEx files may create new content pages in Hybris Commerce. In this tutorial, we will create the ImpEx for creating a new “Contact Us” page. Here's the ImpEx for creating a new "Contact Us" Page: $contentCatalog=yourContentCatalog $contentCV=catalogVersion(CatalogVersion.catalog (Catalog.id[default=$contentCatalog]), CatalogVersion.version[default=Staged]) [default=$contentCatalog:Staged] INSERT_UPDATE ContentPage;$contentCV[unique=true];uid[unique=true]; name;masterTemplate(uid,$contentCV);label; defaultPage[default='true']; approvalStatus(code)[default='approved']; homepage[default='false'];previewImage(code, $contentCV)[default='ContentPageModel__function_preview'];; contact;Contact Us;ContentPage2Template;/contact ImpEx Review: $contentCatalog: The variable name that contains the name of the desired content catalog the "Contact Us" page should belong to. $contentCV: The variable name that contains the name of the desired catalog version. Hybris best practice is to set the catalog version to Staged when writing your ImpEx files/scripts. uid: The …

Hybris Commerce's default encoding strategy is plain text. Obviously, this encoding strategy is not safe, and must be changed before going live with your Hybris implementation. To verify the encoding strategy has been changed from plain text, you should run the following FlexibleSearch query in HAC or backoffice: select {uid},{password},{encodedPassword}, {passwordEncoding} from {user} where {passwordEncoding} != 'md5' or {passwordEncoding} != 'sha256' or {passwordEncoding} != 'sha512' or {passwordEncoding} != 'pbkdf2'

This is a quick tutorial that describes how to install the Hybris Commerce Suite License. This article also assumes you have the SAP Hybris license information in your possession. Open the command prompt Go to your Hybris config directory: cd <HYBRIS_HOME_DIR>/config Create a new file in this directory. The filename you choose doesn't matter. For example, you could create a file called SAPHybrisLicense.txt vi SAPHybrisLicense.txt Once the vi editor is displayed, copy and paste the Hybris license you received from the SAP License Management portal. The license will resemble the following: ----- Begin SAP License ----- SAPSYSTEM=PRD HARDWARE-KEY=XXXXXXXX INSTNO=XXXXXXX BEGIN=XXXXXXX …
