I have configured UGC for a JSP website and I am getting the following error in the generated DCP. It seems to be looking for HEADER_USER_ID. 

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An exception occurred processing JSP page /data/pub10/dcp/jsp/dcp295_4952.jsp at line 42

Below is the source of one of the published DCPs. UGC is working in the CMS GUI. I can view/add/edit comments on contents thru the Comments tab. However I am unable to get it to work on the presentation side.

      </li>
    </ugc:ForEachComment>                       
  </ol>
</ugc:Comments>

As you see the generated DCP doesn't show code for comment.content or comment.id

Has anyone come across this?

UPDATE 21/1/2013

Okay, so the reason why I was getting the above error was because I used ugc_taglib.jar from hotfix #2 and the remaining jars from 2011 SP1. Once I replaced all the jars from the hotfix, the error is gone.

  • Can you supply a little more detail and information, like sources of published pages/DCPs and where this error exactly occurs? Also is this the only issue or is UGC not working all together?

  • a little bit of formatting would have helped in making it more readable for everybody, please see what I edited so you can do the same in the future

  • to keep everything relevant, I suggest you answer this question with your update from 21/1/2013 and accept that answer. Then please ask your second question in a separate question, so it can be addressed separately, since it is a totally different question and it is confusing to have answers on different questions in the same location.

If you created your Component Template using a DWT Template Building Block, then the ${ syntax will have been stripped in there most likely.

To get the original output like this again:

<ugc:Choose>
  <ugc:When test="ugcUser equals ugcComment.User.Id">
    <!-- If the user is the comment author, show a form to edit the comment -->
    <form method="post" id="editCommentForm">
      <input type="hidden" name="commentIdtcm:10-4952" value="${ugcComment.id}"/>
      <textarea rows="4" cols="30" name="editCommenttcm:10-4952">${ugcComment.content}</textarea><br/>
      <input type="submit" value="Save comment"/>
    </form>
  </ugc:When>
  <ugc:Otherwise> 
    <!-- If this visitor did not submit this comment, simply display it. -->
    ${ugcComment.content}
  </ugc:Otherwise> 
</ugc:Choose>

You will have escape the ${ like this in your DWT TBB:

${'$'}{ugcComment.id}

or

@@'$'@@{ugcComment.id}

But be aware this only works correctly for Dynamic Component Templates or Page Templates. Since when you use this in an Embedded Component Template, the Page Template will resolve the ${ it sees again and you still end up with nothing in your output.

For Embedded Component Templates, you will have to escape it twice, like so:

${'$'}{'${'$'}'}{ugcComment.id}

or

@@'$'@@{'@@'$'@@'}{ugcComment.id}

However the error you are getting seems to be pointing to yet another issue, I don't know exactly but it looks like ugcUser is not initialized at all.

  • Hi Bart, Thanks for the update. We haven't used a DWT to get the UGC code but instead we are using a C# TBB to output the UGC code. I tried to escape the tag twice like you mentioned and this time, I was able to see the tag in the generated DCP. But when I access the DCP on a browser, it throws the same exception shown above at this line >> <ugc:Comments itemURI="tcm:10-4952"> and when UGCCommentsTag.doStartTag(). Is there something wrong with the syntax.
