9iAS - OC4J Integration with iFS

Hi,
Can someone please let me know the correlation (or lack of it) between 9iAS and iFS?
Do the two work together and to what extent (ie nothing other than jsps, servlets, ejb's developed in 9iAS can make calls to iFS?
I heard that OC4J (Server licensed and packaged with 9iAS) does not work with iFS? And is not expected to until the "next release". But iFS is part of even the standard server edition:
Oracle HTTP Server, Portal, OC4J, iFS, SDK etc...
Please help!
Susan

Hi Mason,
Thanks, for your post.
No. We are not trying to create EJB's that call the file system.
What we are doing, is creating a Content Management System. Standard UI interface that allows users to read, edit and approve documents for internal publication. (hence iFS).
The same GUI (Browser/JSP/Beans) will also be required to connect to external applications for alternate functionality (hence the EJB need). We were just trying to figure out which container to use/install.
We have now been told (by an Oracle Rep) that OC4J is not compliant with iFS so we should use JServ until it is. (Mid October)
Not sure what the correlation is. Getting a bit confused about what IS a part of 9iAS and what is external. (Seems to me if they are packaged together, they would all work together)
* We see references (Oracle PDF's) to the SDK, but then cannot find it?
* Why is JDev not executable on Solaris?
* We cannot get the most basic sample files (CMS) to run under 9iAS?
* What other source code control is there besides iFS (isn't it easier to keep your .java .class files on the File System (as opposed to in the database?) Or are theses just stored and symbolically linked to by the Repository?
I could go on, but help with these questions would be GREATLY appreciated.
Cheers,
Susan

  • Integrating java application running on OC4J server with EP Iview

    Hi,
         I Want to Integrate Java Application running on OC4J server with my Enterprise portal
    Can any one please help me out in this??
    Regards
    Padma N

    Hi Padma
    Its possible to integrate a java application running in the other server with enterprise portal.In portal i think there is a IView template call Java application template.Using this generally we can do this.But in you case what type of a java application is it?Just a class or webapplication or a server side application.This you can also acheive using a webdynpro applications as these are very flexible with integration into EP.In webdynpro you can use suspend and resume plugs to navigate from one application to other application.I have given my ideas how to implement.But integration mainly depends upon your landscape and version compatibilities and type of the application you need to integrate.
    Hope this answer helps you in implementation.

  • TopLink and 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2

    We are working on project that have
    to work with 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2, upgrade
    to OC4J 9.0.3 in NOT an option.
    Our J2EE application will only use
    Servlets/JSP (NO EJBs), we need
    to do O/R mapping from Servlets to db.
    How can we install / use TopLink (9.0.3
    or earlier version) from 9iAS/OC4J 9.0.2 ?
    Regards, Radomir.

    Hi Radomir,
    This shouldn't be a problem, the easiest way to set things up would be to place the TopLink.jar file in the \j2ee\home\lib folder of OC4J v9.0.2. If there is something specific that you would like answered in terms of application deployment or setup and configurations, just ask.

  • Portal Integration with Discoverer

    How can discoverer application and workbooks be integrated with Portal? Currently designing for Data Warehouse project with webbased front end using 9iAs, Discoverer +, Reports.

    I have tried to do the thing you have described about hacking the disco_frame.htm code. But it will not work for me.
    The discoverer will not start. If I starts it, it will not take the undocumented parameters. Do you have any sugestions ?
    Lene
    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Chris Whiteley ([email protected]):
    Here is some info from an earlier conversation. Not sure how well the html code will come through.. email me if not .
    Christopher
    Even better than that you can get the properties of the URL (by right clicking -> Copy Shortcut) and then use that ANYWHERE in Portal not just under the External Apps Portlet. This also means that you can manage the External Application centrally and any url referencing it will be updated.
    If you want to be really smart you can embed the Discoverer Plus inside and HTML Portlet. This means the full application/report can be viewed through a Portlet.
    You need to basically hack the disco_frame.htm code and take out the following code:
    <script src="http://webserver/disco4i/scripts/htmlvars.js"></script>
    <script src="http://webserver/disco4i/scripts/browser.js"></script>
    <script src="http://webserver/disco4i/scripts/webdisc.js"></script>
    <script>
    document.writeln('<applet codebase="http://webserver/disco4i/applet"');
    document.writeln(' width="200"');
    document.writeln(' height="180"');
    document.writeln(' code = "oracle.disco.DiscoApplet.class"');
    document.writeln(' align="left"');
    document.writeln(' valign="TOP">');
    document.writeln('<param name="namespace" value="OracleDiscoverer4i">');
    document.writeln('<param name="useslibrary" value="Oracle Discoverer 4i">');
    document.writeln('<param name="useslibrarycodebase" value="dis4uie.cab">');
    document.writeln('<param name="useslibraryversion" value="'4,1,33'">');
    document.writeln('<param name="org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass" value="com.visigenic.vbroker.orb.ORB">');
    document.writeln('<param name="Session" value="'Disco4iOracleDiscovererSession4">');
    document.writeln('<param name="Locator" value="'Disco4iOracleDiscovererLocator4">');
    document.writeln('<param name="HELPDIR" value="help">');
    var pName = new Array(0);
    var pValue = new Array(0);
    // override default FrameDisplayStyle=separate
    if (doNotRedirect())
    pName[0] = "FrameDisplayStyle";
    pValue[0] = "";
    constructParamTagsOverride(parent.location.search, false, pName, pValue);
    document.writeln('</applet>');
    </script>
    There are some addtional document.writeln Parameters (NOT DOCUMENTED) that enable you to fire a workbook off automatically:
    document.writeln('<param name="UserName" value="DSMS">');
    document.writeln('<param name="Password" value="DSMS">');
    document.writeln('<param name="Database" value="orcl.uk.oracle.com">');
    document.writeln('<param name="WorkbookSource" value="Database">');
    document.writeln('<param name="Workbook" value="Demand">');
    The downside is that it will refresh each time you go to the page the portlet is in.
    We have also found a way of using PLSQL to interogate the EUL4 tables and present the user with a list of workbooks that have access to based on what is shared
    to them in the 'Sharing' Option. You can syncronise the Portal user and the Discoverer/Database user and hey presto, you have central managability...Almost. The
    'almost' being the fact that we haven't found a way of passing the Portal password into the url to launch Discoverer.

    Hi Santhosh,
    I hope you are using AIA 2.0/2.0.1 for Comms and trying to integrate BRM with Siebel.
    1. To check BRM & Siebel integration using AIA. (BRM is the Product master gets synched with Siebel.)
    a) Create a new Product in BRM pricing center(Provide product name, Service type)
    b) Select Event(Single time purchase event)
    c) Provide rating for the product
    d) Commit after product creation(Check in BPEL process, whether all the instances are went through successfully)
    e) Check Siebel Catalog, whether product got synched from BRM
    2. To check whether BRM Adapter connected to BRM,
    a) Login into Oracle Application server
    b) Select OC4J instance, where your AIA is running
    c) Select Applications
    d) In view drop down select "StandAlone Resource Adapters"
    e) Check the status (green or red) in the installed BRM adapter
    If you haven't deployed BRM Adapter read the installation guide to deploy it.

  • Integration with JAZN

    Hi!
    I have implemented a contract-first web service using Spring-WS, and would like to authenticate towards the OC4J JAZN Jaas security provider.
    Is it possible to integrate with JAZN by accessing the JAAS api directly? I have set up my own realm in the OC4J Instance security settings, and uses this realm name in my application code, but I cant succeed in authenticating with this setup at all. My orion-application.xml references the instance level xml configuration file.
    Has anyone succeeded in integrating with JAZN in this way at all?
    All feedback would be most welcome :)
    Btw, I am using OC4J 10.1.3.

    Thanks for your responce.
    yes, you are right, we can achieve that by a new user JAZN and assign a role "BPMSSystemAdmin". But by doing so, we are giving the total control to the user. he can edit the data for the other instances also. i don't want to happen that.
    my requirement is , the end user just able to edit the data and can continue, and also if he is not responded in the stipulated time auto esclation to the admin. he should not have privilage to chage the rule or edit the payload for other instances....
    can it be possible?
    please help me..,
    if there is no such option, please tell me the ulternate way to achive this requirement...

    Any clues about this..
    How to add HTTP header on top of the response..
    Thanks,
    Azeem.

    We have this working at our organization and my guess is that this is related to either a missing routing or having no security set on the service operation. We are only exploring this in test but we have the ESB set up as node in Peoplesoft. There is then routing defined from that node to financials. On the service operation we have attached the role PTPT1200. I am sure this is not best practice but we are currently only testing.
    If you want to attach headers for authentication/authorization I am sure it is defined in the documentation although I don't have the link in front of me.

  • OIM 9.1.0 Integration with Active Directory 2008 R2

    Hi,
    My customer is running Root/Child AD structure based on windows 2003 w/SP2, OIM 9.1.0 deployed under one of the child domains, and integrated with child domains controllers which runs windows server 2003 as well.
    My customer has decided to upgrade his AD to Windows Server 2008 R2 domain controllers across the entire AD Forest and still wants to integrate the current OIM v9.1.0 with AD for all of his Users provisioning and password synchronizations.
    Am not sure if current OIM version of OIM 9.1.0 is compatible and supported by OIM v9.1.0 under active directory version 2008 / R2, and not sure if it can be integrated with such AD version.
    Any guidance is really appreciated.
    Also I was thinking of such scenario but also not sure of its support ability and if OIM will keep working on such scenario, the scenario is to upgrade only the AD root domain to Windows 2008 R2 while keeping the child domain holding the OIM 9.1.0 at Windows 2003 version.
    Is this a working and supported scenario by OIM v9.1.0 ?

    I believe you question should be if the connector supports this architecture. Check out the versions supported for the connector you are using and you should be good.

  • Service desk integration with 3rd party tool

    Hi all,
    I've problems understanding the setup of connecting a 3rd party service desk tool with solman itsm.
    So far it's clear that I need to activate and configure the service provider and consumer in soamanager.
    The webservice then will be called by the 3rd party tool with corresponding data.
    However, according to spro I need to define a value mapping for incoming/outgoing calls.
    I do not understand this mapping... the WSDL of webservice ICT_SERVICE_DESK_API contains lots of fields, but in spro -> value mapping I can only define the following fields (which are hard coded in type pool AIICT):
    SAPCategory
    SAPComponent
    SAPDatabase
    SAPFrontend
    SAPIncidentID
    SAPIncidentStatus
    SAPInstNo

    SAPSoftwareComponent

  • Java Stack mandatory for a SAP BI system integrated with EP?

    Hi Guru's,
    Currently we are using SAP NetWeaver 2004 s version 7.0 system for our BI.
    This is integrated with the EP. But our BI system does not contain the Java Stack installed.
    When we work on WAD templates and execute  the template, it is automatically directed to EP portal where we can see our reports.
    Here my question is do we need Java Stack for this system to use ADOBE DOCUMENT services or can it work with EP only for the web functionalities.
    Any info on this is of great help.
    Best Regards
    Kumar

    HI Reddy,
    We came to know from our basis team that we do not have the Java Stack installed in our BI 7.x system yet.
    As it is integrated with EP which has Java, our web reports are working.
    1) But my question is still do we ned to install the Java Stack in our BI system as i do not find any Export to PDF option in EP for the reports (eventhough AS Java supports this).
    2) Or can we use the existing configuration without Java STack integrated to EP for the new tools like Report Designer and Integrated Planning?
    Regards

  • Session keep Alive when EBS is integrated with OIF acting as SP

    We have an E-Business Suite R12(12.1.3) Application which is integrated with Oracle Access Manager 11.1.1.5. For authentication the Oracle Access Manager delegates the authentication request to Oracle Identity Federation acting as a Service Provider (SP). There is a home-grown SSO which acts as the Identity provider by Federating it with OIF using SAML 2.0 protocol.
    The integration is successful and EBS is able to authenticate using this third party SSO.
    Now there are multiple applications which are integrated with this third party SSO and the user can access any of these applications including EBS.
    Considering a scenario where a user is using EBS Application say for more than 30 mins. Now when he tries to login to another application the challenge screen is thrown though he can continue to work on EBS without any issue. The reason being that the session timeout on the IDP side is set to 30 mins.
    To overcome this issue the solution that has been thought of using a javascript for each page load on the application which will update the SSO token with the latest UTC time on the IDP server. This has been successfully done for all other applications except EBS.
    So my question is how we can call this java script for each page load for EBS?
    Thanks & Regards

    It appears that OAM is removing the url parameters for the p_done_url sent to it by OIF.
         302 Redirect to -> Location: https://sso.mycompany.com/oam/server/logout?p_done_url=https%3A%2F%2Fsso.mycompany.com%2Ffed%2Fuser%2Fsloosso%3Fid%3Dosso%26type%3D3&invokeOSFSLogout=false
         Result: 200. Set-Cookie OAM-ID to expired.
    Form Submits: https://sso.mycompany.com/fed/user/sloosso

    Notice the p_done_url value in the redirect has extra parameters which when the Form is submitted are lost.
    If I manually enter the url: https://sso.mycompany.com/fed/user/sloosso?id=osso&type=3&invokeOSFSLogout=false

    This seems almost like a bug in OAM...

    Subject: RE: Forms That Will Not Close
    Exiting the event loop will not close the window! Invoking
    'Close' method on the window will. Check if this method
    is executed. It appears, the AfterFinalize event exits the
    event loop and nothing more. Then, your applications
    waits for some event from your main window, like 'Mouse-
    Enter', before invoking Window.Close().

    Hi,
    We seem to be having some type of deadlock problem when trying to
    close
    forms and am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem.
    The
    phenomenon does not always occur and is not specific to any one client
    machine.
    I will explain the phenomenon:
    1. We have an object that contains our main application startup
    method.
    This method then instantiates our main application window (Control)
    and
    invokes the Display() method using start task.
    2. All other forms created by the application are created using a form
    manager service object which exists on the client partition. The form
    manager has a CreateForm() method which instantiates a form class of
    the
    specified type and invoked the form's Display() method using start
    task.
    3. Each form has a Close push button which when clicked invokes
    Window.RequestFinalize().
    Now, the problem we have is this:
    The user starts the application and the main application window is
    displayed. The user then selects an option from the main window and a
    child form is created using the form manager service object and is
    displayed. The user can continue to create more child forms by
    selecting
    options from the main window and all child forms are instantiated and
    displayed correctly.
    However, when the user attempts to close one of the forms the form
    does
    not close. The finalize event is triggered and the event loop is
    exited,
    but the form continues to be displayed and does not close. If the user
    then moves the mouse pointer over the main application window, the
    child
    form immediately closes. Moving the mouse cursor over other child
    windows (or even the desktop) does NOT do this - only when the mouse
    cursor is moved over the main window does the child form close.
    Does anyone have any ideas on this?
    Regards,
    Jace.

    Hi Pascal,
    The Display() method is as follows:
    self.Open();
    event loop
    when Window.AfterFinalize do
    exit;
    when task.Shutdown do
    exit;
    end event;
    self.Close();
    <end>
    Are you saying we should do a Window.Close() in there somewhere as well

    Jace.

    Jason,
    No, self.Close() should close the window. This is the
    method I referred to. You could place a traceline
    behind self.Close() to see if it is executed. It is not
    inconcievable some exception may exit the Display()
    method before self.Close() is executed.
    After that, maybe, some events from your main
    window trigger something that causes a call like 'My-
    Window.Close()', where 'MyWindow' is a subclass of
    'UserWindow', so 'MyWindow' gets closed after all.
    Maybe you've overridden 'Close()', so now it doesn't
    work properly anymore.
    Are you sure you exit the event loop after you press
    the close button?? The display method is not regis-
    terred for any <PushButton>.Click event, though maybe
    you just didn't include the full Display method in your
    mail.
    Remember that an event loop will only respond to an
    event if it is not currently handling an event. So, the
    method behind <PushButton>.Click may call a self.
    Window.RequestFinalize(), which will cause an After-
    Finalize event to be posted, which will be placed in
    the event queue. If this method however keeps waiting
    for something, the event loop will not respond to the
    AfterFinalize event, until this method is done waiting.
    Pascal.
    Hi Pascal,
    The Display() method is as follows:
    self.Open();
    event loop
    when Window.AfterFinalize do
    exit;
    when task.Shutdown do
    exit;
    end event;
    self.Close();
    <end>
    Are you saying we should do a Window.Close() in there somewhere as
    well

    Hi there,

    I'm hoping that someone out there has experienced the following (and
    knows why it is happening. ) :-)
    =
    I have a couple of windows on which the AfterValueChange event is
    triggered on a field upon hitting the delete key.
    We all know that this should only happen upon leaving the field, ie. th=e
    field loosing focus. The problem is that I'm trying to recreate this in=
    a simple test class, but now it won't happen. I still have the original=
    windows on which it is happening, but I would like to construct
    something small and simple to send to Forte.
    =
    Any ideas as to why this could be happening?

    Subject: math library
    I need direction to the source of Forte libs that handle more scientific
    math. Also included is the need for more scientific print formating. I
    understand, second hand, that such material is available from third
    party vendors/sources.

    Greg,
    This is a bit of a long shot, but has anyone experience with integrating
    Forte with PI/Open. PI/Open is a variant of PICK. We have a requirement
    to read and update a PI/Open database from within our Forte application,
    and we would be most interested to hear from anyone who has experience in
    doing this.
    We are aware of a set of APIs provided with PI/Open that are written in
    "C". We could wrapper these from within Forte, however the issue is that
    the APIs provided are non-shared, and Forte requires shared libraries.Would be interersting, which operating system you're using.
    You could write a dll (on windows) or shared library (on unix) wrappering the
    original,statically linked "C"-Libs. This lib could be used by Forte.

  • Excel integration with Entry and Approval for SSM not working

    Iu2019m having trouble getting excel integrated with E&A for being able to enter large number of historic data points into a cube-built model u2013 Iu2019ve gone through all the docs several times and there is no good concrete explanation on how to do this. I keep getting the following error message:
    Error opening Excel Automation server can't create object. This can be caused by:
    1. - The application is not installed on your machine
    2. - The browser security does not support ActiveX scripts.
    3. - Your were prompted to run ActiveX and you said No, if that is the cause close all browser instances and reopen.
    However, I've done the following:
    -          Iu2019ve installed the excel add-in on both the server and my local machine, and Iu2019ve enabled the add-in part in Excel on my local machine.
    -          The browser security is definitely set to accept all active X scripts
    -          I am never prompted to run activeX when I select u201CHistorical Datau201D within entry/approval. I just get the above error message.
    -          Iu2019ve flushed cache and restarted listener several times.
    What am I missing? I donu2019t see it in any of the docs.
    Thanks!

    Robb,
    Looking at what you've done, there doesn't seem to be an obvious answer. The best suggestion I can make is to fill out a support ticket on this. There must be other factors at work here that will require a deeper look.
