How to upgrade Stellent 7.5.1 to Oracle Content Server 10gR3

Hi,
I need to upgrade Stellent 7.5.1 to OCS 10gR3. Can someone provide the steps. Do I need to install OCS 10gR3 and then migrate the folders and content how do I migrate all the folder, content to 10gR3. Is there any documentation, blogs, steps that I can catch up on to get the understanding and get started. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
am putting out the steps needed for upgrading an existing CS instance from version 7.5.1 to 10gR3. Its basically a 2 step process where we use Configuration Migration Utility to migrate the CS structure and Archiver to migrate the existing contents. The steps are as follows :
1. Install a new CS 10gR3 instance on the server and configure it as per the install guide.
2. Verify that the basic functionalities for the newly installed instance is working fine by doing some simple tests like checkin ,checkout , update etc. Then upgrade the CS to the latest patchset level which can be downloaded from http://updates.oracle.com/download/6907073.html.
3. Install the latest version of Configuration Migration Utility component (which is found in the same uprgade patch set ) on both the 10gR3 CS (target) instance and the 7.5.1 CS (source).Enable them on both the CS instances and restart the same.
4. Run the Configuration Migration Utility on the source CS and download the CMU Bundle created on it.
5. Upload the CMU Bundle created in previous step to the Target CS and import the configurations from that.Verify that the CMU process is completed successfully on the Target CS instance.
6. Create a new archiver instance on the Source CS and export all the contents in that.
7. Open the Archiver Applet for the target CS instance and then Point the collections to the collections.hda of the source CS instance so that we can import the contents. Start the Import process on target server.
8. Once the CMU and Archiver Process are completed then your 10gR3 CS would be an exact replica of the Source 7.5.1 Instance.
You may also go through System Migration Guide to get more understanding on the Migration / Upgrade processes.
Hope this helps
Thanks

How to upgrade APEX to 3.2 in Oracle 10g XE

I installed the Oracle XE on my PC and it works fine for me. Now I want to upgrade APEX to version 3.2. After download the zip file online and unzip it, the file couldn't be run in Sql*Plus with error message "can't open file apexin.sql". My guess is I didn't change my working directory to the APEX fold which contains the unzipped files. But I have no idea how to do it?
So any help or suggestion?
Thanks!

"can't open file apexin.sql" Is that a typo ? Correct name is apexins.sql.
My guess is I didn't change my working directory to the APEX fold which contains the unzipped files. But I have no idea how to do it?Did you read the documentation ?

Upgraded to APEX 3.0 in Oracle 10g Express, broken runtime

Hi,
I'm a newbie trying to use APEX with Oracle 10g Express on my laptop. I ran the upgrade to the latest APEX version (3.x). It seems to have worked for design-time, but the run-time has broken. I gave up trying to import samle apps, and built a simple one-page application from scratch, and got the below error after entering username/password and clicking the login button:
ERR-1777: Page 101 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Thanks in advacne,
Shahram

No longer a problem, I needed to successfully log on to the admin account and associate the developer user to a schema other than SYSTEM, I'm not sure why SYSTEM ended up being the default schema for the workspace during the upgrdae.

OAS upgrade 10.1.3.5.0 (Oracle Linux)

I have installed OAS 10.1.3.0 (32 bit) on Oracle Linux 5 (64 bit) successfully. But when I am trying to upgrade/install to OAS 10.1.3.5.0 (Patchset 5), the installation is struck/hanged at 13%. I am using SOA suite 10g installer. There is enough free space on disk -- 32gb and installation folder has required permissions. I donot understand why is it struck at "spawning '//scratch/chetpati/database/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/dsa/bin/getias.sh'"
Please refer to the snapshot link - http://i50.tinypic.com/2e4m3k2.jpg . It is like that for 2 hours.

Finally I found the answer.
for a strange reason the classloader in release 3 was not able to find the BSF provider although the bsf.jar was inside the applib.
Thus I have set the
System.setProperty("org.apache.xalan.extensions.bsf.BSFManager","class to load");
Could someone explain me why the application server was not able to locate the class although the iAS release 2 was working fine ?
Thank you.

Live Upgrade from 8 to 10 keeping Oracle install

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to figure out how to do a Live Upgrade from Solaris 8 (SPARC) to 10 and still keep my Oracle available after the reboot.
Since all of the Oracle datafiles are on /un or /opt/oracle I figure I can just create a new BE for /, /etc and /var. From there I'd just need to edit /etc/vfstab, /etc/init.d/ (for db startups), copy over /var/opt/oracle/, mount /opt/oracle.
Does that sound right? Has anyone done this?
On a side note, I'm still trying to figure out Live Update. My system is configed with RAID 1 under Solstice (metatool). I'm concerened about being able to access the MetaDB once the BE switch goes through. Should I set up a new mirror for the new BE prior to running LU? Or should I configure the mirror for the new BE once the switchover has gone through?

Upgrade solaris from 9 to 10 - Oracle issues?

We are planning to upgrade our Solaris box, running oracle 9.2.0.5,
from solaris 9 (5.9) to 10, this to take advantage of better TCP/IP
stack on Solaris 10 , and the Network trunking feature, multiplexing
network cards to same IP, which is non-standard in Solaris 9.
Our DB does not run in a cluster, and uses local disks only.
any issue we should be aware of? would all our system settings, like
disk, init and /etc/system remain unchanged? any estimate of down time?
I am assuming we would have to shut down oracle while running the
upgrade.
I just read that /etc/system is not supported? what would we have to do instead?
thanks!

You may need to re-link Oracle.

Upgrading from WLS 8.1 to Oracle WLS 10.3

Hi,
I'm planning to upgrade a client's system consisting of multiple applications running on WLS 8.1 to Oracle WLS 10.3.
Is this an officially supported upgrade path? What would be the best way to do the upgrade?
Are there any tools for automatically importing or converting the old configuration or domains?
Or is it better to create new installations from scratch and manually configure them?
Is there any documentation for this upgrade path?
In practice we would need to run both application servers in parallel for a while.
Can I expect the different server versions to interoperate with each other?
The applications mostly communicate using EJB (v2.0) calls but JMS and Web Services are used as well.
I've tested the EJB calls and they seem to work but what about JMS?

Thanks.
Can WLS JMS v8.1 be used as a messaging provider for WLS v10.3 and 8.1 instances
(using it directly or through the Messaging Bridge)?
Is this described in the documentation somewhere?
I also found the following documents that address version compatibility:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs103/compatibility/compatibility.html

Hi Gurus
Is there any specific guide available for the Upgrade of ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0 from service market place.
for the linux operating system and oracle database. or atleast , I want to know what are the mimimum checks to be done (prerequisities) in the ECC 5.0 system which need to upgrade into ECC6.0.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
There is not an specific guide for ECC 5.0 upgrade, just the guides specific for your OS/DB combination, they can be downloaded in https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/instguides but you should use the Unix/Oracle document,

Upgrade from Forms 3.0 to Oracle Forms 9i

Hi,
I have a requirement to upgrade Forms 3.0 to Oracle Forms 9i. Please suggest the best approach for the migration. It would of great help if you could provide some details on the following:
1. Approach for migration (Whether to convert from 3.0 to 6i first and then from 6i to 9i (or) direct conversion )
2. Common problems that may be encountered during the migration
3. Performance of the migrated application against the original one.
4. Effort that may be involved to convert an application containing around 300 forms.
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
Regards
Sankar

Sankar,
A lot depends on the triggers in the form. If they are Version 2-style triggers, you are basically going to have to reinvent the logic using 9i triggers. I don't think 9i supports Version 2-style triggers at all. (I think 6.0 did and 6i might, but it was deprecated - and removed in 9i as I recall).
This will be a fairly significant effort. I don't know if you're familiar with these early versions of Forms at all, but in Version 2 there was no such thing as PL/SQL so the triggers consisted of a series of steps on each event, and a macro-style language. Each step had a "True" branch and a "False" branch to handle flow when you tested conditions, and so on. So if you want to try to recover the code and create it in PL/SQL triggers, you'll need to have someone who can read it, or try to find the old doc and study up on it.
In addition, later versions of Forms have added many triggering events - including all of the "When-" triggers. Much of the code that occured in a Post-Change trigger in v2 and v3 should now be done in a When-Validate-Item trigger, for example.
So the trigger migration may be your biggest headache. You don't say whether the 9i forms will be run on the web, etc. But to me, laying out the fields on a canvas is the easy part - that you can easily do in a new form rather than trying to migrate. It's the trigger code you need to migrate, and that may be tough if they used V2-style triggers in the 3.0 Forms.
Hope this helps.

Thanks everyone for the response and help.
I completed the task yesterday with the permission method. However, I think I found the solution after completion. The trick lies at the oraInst.loc file. It lies at /etc directory for my case (AIX 5.3).
If you do a opatch lsinventory, it shows you the Central Inventory location and the location of orainst.loc. For my case, it is pointing to /oracle/DE1/920_64/inventory. Therefore, even though I am logging in as oraqa1 with all env and oracle settings correct, it still points to DE1 inventory.
I think modifying the Central inventory location in oraInst.loc will solve this problem.
