ANNOUNCEMENT: New in Oracle iFS 1.1

Oracle iFS version 1.1 will soon be released with Oracle8i Release 3 (8.1.7), so the product management team wanted to take the opportunity to let you know what's in our v1.1. The list includes:
* NLS and MLS support. Oracle iFS now supports
8-bit and multi-byte character sets in
all components of the product, from the
repository through the protocol servers to
the web and Windows UIs.
* Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
compliance. Oracle iFS is now conforms to
ADA requirements.
* WebDAV. Oracle iFS now supports WebDAV, the
new standard for collaboration across the
Internet.
* Parser framework improvements. We've added
some new capabilities to the parser
framework, including the XML components.
* DTD validation. One of these additions
is XML DTD validation.
* New Server Manager GUI. You now have a
graphical control panel in the Oracle iFS
manager for administering procotol servers
and agents.
* Various bug fixes, performance enhancements, and documentation updates.
For details, see the What's New in Version 1.1 guide, included with the Oracle iFS documentation with its version 1. release.

We released to manufacturing our version 1.1 for Solaris, so as soon as Oracle8i Release Two (8.1.7) is available, we'll be part of that CD pack. We'll also be downloadable with the database from here on OTN. The NT port will be released in October, with other ports following afterward (exact dates not announced yet).

Announcing New! Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Oracle CRM on Demand

Hi all,
We are very pleased to announce the immediate availability of the new OPA connector for Oracle CRM on Demand. You can find more information and the link to download this connector on the OPA pages on OTN here:
http://www-content.oracle.com/technetwork/apps-tech/policy-automation/overview/index.html.
Feel free to post to this forum with questions or comments on this new connector. We welcome your feedback.
Kind regards,
Davin Fifield
VP Product Development, OPA

1. Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel v10.2 requires rulebases to be created with Oracle Policy Modeling 10.2.
2. Siebel and OPA are separate applications with their own system requirements. There is no need for them to be deployed on the same operating systems / application servers.
3. The siebel-data-adapter.properties file is found in, for example, the siebel-wd-embedded.war files (for Java) in the location described in the documentation, and in the corresponding .zip files (for .NET).
Note that Oracle Policy Automation Connector for Siebel v10.3 is planned to be available on E-Delivery within a few weeks.
Davin.

In iFS SDK , where is oracle.ifs.management.domain.IfsServer located ?

The iFS has been properly installed and tested by DBAs and its operational. I have a requirement to develop an iFS agent. As a first step in my learning process, I am testing the examples provided by Oracle (LoggingAgent.java, otificationAgent.java). Although I have successfully compiled and tested their HellowIFSWorld, I am having trouble compiling the Examples of Agent code.
The Error on NT using Jdeveloper is:
cannot access class oracle.ifs.management.domain.IfsServer; file oracle\ifs\management\domain\IfsServer.class not found
I get a similar error on Solaris as well when I compiled the code.
I searched all of the jar files in SDK (ifs/lib/repos.jar, utils.jar, adk.jar, release.jar, email.jar, classes12.zip & the settings) for this class and could not locate it. Suggestions? Help?
Thanks

Are you searching in the .jar files that come with JDeveloper on NT?
If so, they are probably out of date (from a previous release of iFS).
What you should do is copy the .jar files from your iFS installation
(the one that you mentioned is operational) and replace the .jar files
that came with JDeveloper. You'll probably notice that the 'repos.jar'
from the iFS installation is different (newer in fact) than the one
from your JDeveloper installation.
When developing (whether you're using JDeveloper or any other IDE),
you should always be using the .jar files that are in your iFS installation.
Also make sure that the ORACLE_HOME in your development environment
is the same version as in your iFS installation. (Make sure that your
JDBC drivers -- classes12.zip and native libraries -- are the same version
in both the development and installation environments.)

How to use oracle.ifs.search.ContextSearchSpecification.setMedia()

The javadoc states that "The user can also specify the Media on which the Text Queries are to be performed".
How ?
The Media[] argument of this method is not documented and there seems to be no constructor for the class either.
I want to make a context query on content in one class + on description (or also content if that were impossible) in another class.

Tom
This allows a content search on description.
It uses the FreeForm SQL ability. It gets the score for the search of the related Content. I'm not sure if I can get the score for the description search.

How to do it? Need help in syntax - new to Oracle syntax

create or replace
PROCEDURE "SP_SAMPLE_data" (prodName in VARCHAR2) AS
where_criteria char(100);
BEGIN
if prodName = 'A' then
I want to build the where criteria string as “product_name in (‘iPod’,’iPad’)”
else
I want to build the where criteria string as “product_name = directly read from the passed variable(prodName)”
end if;
select *
from “MySchema”.”MyTable”
where where_criteria concatenated here – do not know how to concatenate;
END SP_SAMPLE_data;
New to Oracle PL/SQL syntax.
Oracle 10gR2

You could try someting like this
create or replace procedure SP_SAMPLE_data (prodName in VARCHAR2) AS
   where_criteria char(100);
   sql_stmt varchar2(1000);
BEGIN
   if prodName = 'A' then
      -- I want to build the where criteria string as "product_name in ('iPod','iPad')"
      where_criteria := 'product_name in (''iPod'',''iPad'')';
   else
      -- I want to build the where criteria string as
      -- "product_name = directly read from the passed variable(prodName)"
      where_criteria := 'product_name = '''||prodName||'''';
end if;
sql_stmt := 'select * from MySchema.MyTable'||where_criteria;
END SP_SAMPLE_data;I added SQL_STMT variable as I am not sure what do you want to do with SQL statement once it is created. Do you plan to execute it in the procedure or pass it back to the calling environment? If you need to pass it back, then specify SQL_STMT as out parameter.

Oracle ifs and BEA weblogic

Oracle ifs and BEA weblogic
We have one application server with weblogic and and ifs 1.0.9 , and one db server with Oracle 8.1.7.
with the following configuration:
Web server
appl server with weblogic 6.0 and ifs 1.1.9
Oracle 8i Enterprise with interMedia text
We need to use the iFS API call for our application.
As I know, weblogic 6.0 support JDK1.3 but ifs 1.1.9 supports up to JDK1.2.
Is this configuration possible?
Any conflict if two version JDK co-exist inside same machine?
Any suggestion?
If I separate the appl. server into two machines, that is,
one server installed with weblogic, the other one installed with ifs.
How could I make use the ifs API call from appl. server?
Is there any configuration guides for this setting?
Thanks a lot.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Luis:
The iFS API is 100% pure Java. You can use it from any other Java application, be it JSP, EJB, or a standalone application.
So it really comes down to the CLASSPATH. The iFS API is split among a set of .jar files, and some of the configuration information is stored in .properties files that are outside of these .jar files. All of this stuff needs to be in the CLASSPATH of whatever JVM is calling the iFS API.
The iFS API uses the Oracle JDBC driver to communicate with the Oracle database. This is another requirement. You can't use another JDBC driver; you have to use ours.
So again, it's all about configuration.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Would you mind to share more detail on configurating weblogic to integrate the iFS API?

New to oracle report builder

Dear all;
Please pardon me. I am new to oracle report builder and I am trying to accomplish the following. First and foremost please find my pl/sql queries below. Kindly note, all the queries have been tested and I just need to be able to input those queries into the report builder. Thank you.
create or replace package test1 is
type r_cursor is ref cursor;
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor;
end test1;
create or replace package body test1 is
function report(company_name in varchar2) return r_cursor as
my_r_cursor r_cursor;
begin
if(company_name = 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t;
return my_r_cursor;
elsif(company_name != 'ALL COMPANIES') THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select t.t_id, t.t_description from t1 t
where t.t_id = company_name;
return my_r_cursor;
end if;
end;
end test1;
create table t1
t_id varchar2(200) not null,
t_description varchar2(250),
primary key(t_id)
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('CITI', 'PROFIT: 2.2Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('GE', 'PROFIT: 1Billion');
insert into t1
(t_id, t_description)
values
('JPMORGAN','PROFIT: 0');Now, I am trying to create a simple report in oracle report builder. The interface for generating for this report is basically, there is a dropdownlist where by the user picks a company name from the dropdownlist and clicks on the go button, this should then generate a report with the above query shown in the package. How can this be achieved? All help will greatly be appreciated.

Hi,
first of all you need strong typed ref cursor, oracle reports need to detect witch are the columns returned by your cursor.
so first you create your package
create or replace package test1
as
TYPE t_record IS RECORD ( company_number PLS_INTEGER--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
, company_desc VARCHAR2(150)--TABLE_NAME.COLUMN_NAME%TYPE
TYPE T_REF_CURSOR IS REF CURSOR RETURN t_record;
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor) ;
end test1;
show errors
create or replace package body test1
is
procedure report(company_name in varchar2 ,cur_out OUT t_ref_cursor)
is
my_r_cursor T_REF_CURSOR;
begin
if(company_name = '1')
THEN
open my_r_cursor for
select 1 as t_id, 'description' ast_description from dual
else
open my_r_cursor for
select 2 as t_id, 'description2' as t_description from dual
end if;
end;
end test1;
show errors
then, in your report you create a ref cursor query :
function QR_1RefCurDS
return test1.t_ref_cursor
is
C_return test1.t_ref_cursor;
begin
test1.report(1,C_return);
RETURN(C_return) ;
end;
hope this helps you !

Forms installation problem - how do I create a new default Oracle home?

I am new to Oracle so please forgive my utter ignorance. My impression of Oracle because of how an installation
has to be done is taking a nosedive. I thought Microsoft was bad with all the re-booting but the explanation that I
read in Anubhav Seth's post about installing Dev 6i before 8i and the suggestion (not a requirement) to format the
harddisk and reinstall Windows just leaves me with my jaw hanging open. I'm having a little trouble swallowing that
one.
Here's my situation... I'm running 8i at home and I am using it for the Oracle courses that I am taking at a local
university. So 8i with its SQL*Plus has been all I have needed to date. Now we have a project to do that involves forms.
So I go to the OTN page for downloads and downloaded file 6irel2nt.exe which is 264 MB in size. This file, I assume,
has forms in it -- what else I don't know because things are not explained all that well on the web site or I don't know
where to look (which implies poor organization of the web pages).
I run the 6irel2nt.exe file and end up with 11,128 new files on my computer. That's nice. I run the setup file and a step or
two into it it complains that my 'Ora81' home is already being used and that I need to install it into another Oracle Home.
Now I'm trying to find out how I create another Oracle Home. I perform a search in GOOGLE on "creat default Oracle
home" and basically get nowhere. My $50+ "Oracle 8i A Beginner's Guide" from Oracle Press mentions Oracle Home
on one page (pg. 170) but is completely useless in this case. My $184 worth of Oracle University manuals (which
are really PowerPoint slides) is useless too. My next step will be to comb through the FAQs. All this because I cannot
believe that I have to totally uninstall one product to get another to install and then reinstall the first one. That is INSANE!
If I have gone way off track please feel free to blast me but if this is true then all I can say is that the folks at Oracle need
a lesson in KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)! Computers and computer software are supposed to make our lives simpler
not complicate the holy hell out of them. I'll get off my soapbox now. Sorry about the whining.

I ended up uninstalling 8i and then I installed Dev 6i (Forms) and then I reinstalled 8i. I had some problems
installing Dev 6i because of this error "path.vrf(86): Unbound variable 'path_too_long_prompt'". Right after this error
appears I get a dialog that states, "The Oracle Installer cannot update the system path variable to %new_path%
because it is too long. Please restrict your system path to 127 characters and make sure D:\Oracle\OraWin95\bin
is included in your path."
The path D:\Oracle\OraWin95 was what I set up for this installation.
What I did to work around this problem was this...
(1) Go to Start - Accessories - System Tools - System Information.
(2) Click on the Tools menu
(3) Select System Configuration Utility
(4) Select the Autoexec.bat tab
(5) I added D:\Oracle\OraWin95\bin to my PATH variable and unchecked the checkbox next to one of the several
lines that I have that build my PATH variable. (I have several PATH lines that simply add a path to the system
variable %path%). After the installation is complete you can go back and turn back on the paths that you had disabled.
After installing 8i I did have a problem connecting to the database. I got this error:
Error: ORA-01034 Oracle not available
I believe this happened because I had forgotten to turn back on some of my PATH information that I mentioned
earlier. After checking one of my PATH variables and rebooting, this problem disappeared.
When reinstalling 8i and when the installation asks for an SID and you enter the SID you had used in the original
installation you may get a notice that says the SID already exists. I think this happens because the uninstall does not
clean up the registry totally, so I entered a different one. Later on, after the installation has been completed and you
are connecting to your database, you will be prompted to select an SID -- just make sure that you select the SID from
the latest installation.
I should've mentioned first that in preparing for this whole ridiculous exercise I created a directory under my Oracle
directory that I was going to use as the new 'Oracle home.' So I guess that's all one has to do to create a new Oracle
home -- just have another directory ready to install 'stuff' into.
All in all, this a pretty asinine exercise. Oracle really needs to fix this mess. I honestly thought Microsoft was bad but
this takes the cake. I wonder if SQL Server is this screwed up.

(V9I) ORACLE 9I NEW FEATURE : ORACLE FLASHBACK

제품 : ORACLE SERVER
작성날짜 : 2002-11-01
(V9I) ORACLE 9I New Feature : ORACLE FLASHBACK
==============================================
PURPOSE
Oracle9i 새로운 기능인 Flashback 의 등장으로 Commit 된 Transaction 에 대해
특정 시점의 과거 DATA를 Query가 가능함으로써 Self-service repair 기능이 향상되었다.
다음 Flashback query 기능과 Setup 방법 및 실제 Data Recovery 에 관한 내용에 대해 알아보도록 한다.
Explanation
Flashback : 새로운 기능인 Flahback 은 과거 시점의 consistent view 를 볼 수있는
기능으로 system time or systme change number(SCN) 기반 read-only view이다.
다음은 Flashback 기능을 사용하기 위해 미리 설정해야할 부분에 대해 알아보도록 한다.
1) 반드시 Automatic Undo Management 에서만 가능
(initSID.ora file이나 spfile에 다음 파라미터가 auto로 설정)
UNDO_MANAGEMENT = AUTO
2) Rentention interval 을 두어 해당 time 동안은 inactive rollback 이라 하더라도
overwrite 되지 않도록 유지(초단위)
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET undo_retention = 1200;
UNDO_RETENTION 을 지정한 다음 실제 적용을 위해 5분정도 기다려야 한다.
3) DBMS_FLASHBACK package를 이용하여 Flashback 기능을 enable 시킨다.
SQL> call dbms_flashback.enable_at_time('9-NOV-01:11:00:00');
Example1. Flashback setup 과 date/time 설정
1) Undo tablespace 생성
SQL> create undo tablespace UNDOTBS datafile
'/database/901/V901/undotbs01.dbf' size 100M;
2) intiSID or spfile 에 다음 파라미터 적용
undo_management=auto
undo_retention=1200
undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS
3) dbms_flashback exeucte 권한 grant
SQL> connect / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> grant execute on dbms_flashback to testuser;
Grant succeeded.
4) test table 생성
SQL> connect testuser/testuser;
Connected.
SQL> create table emp_flash as select * from scott.emp;
Table created.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_flash;
COUNT(*)
15
5) table 생성후 5분 정도 waiting -> table delete
SQL> delete from emp_flash;
15 rows deleted.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_flash;
COUNT(*)
0
6) flashback 활성화
SQL> execute DBMS_FLASHBACK.ENABLE_AT_TIME(sysdate - 5/1440);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_flash;
COUNT(*)
15
SQL> execute DBMS_FLASHBACK.DISABLE;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_flash;
COUNT(*)
0
Example2. Flashback 으로 잃어버린 data recovery
1) test user 생성
SQL> connect testuser/testuser;
Connected.
SQL> create table emp_recover as select * from scott.emp;
Table created.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_recover;
COUNT(*)
15
2) delete table
SQL> VARIABLE SCN_SAVE NUMBER;
SQL> EXECUTE :SCN_SAVE := DBMS_FLASHBACK.GET_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> PRINT SCN_SAVE
SCN_SAVE
6.4455E+12
SQL> select count(*) from emp_recover;
COUNT(*)
15
SQL> delete from emp_recover;
15 rows deleted.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select count(*) from emp_recover;
COUNT(*)
0
3) flashback 이용한 data recover
SQL> DECLARE
2 CURSOR FLASH_RECOVER IS
3 select * from emp_recover;
4 emp_recover_rec emp_recover%ROWTYPE;
5 begin
6 DBMS_FLASHBACK.ENABLE_AT_SYSTEM_CHANGE_NUMBER(:SCN_SAVE);
7 open FLASH_RECOVER;
8 DBMS_FLASHBACK.DISABLE;
9 loop
10 FETCH FLASH_RECOVER INTO emp_recover_rec;
11 EXIT WHEN FLASH_RECOVER%NOTFOUND;
12 insert into emp_recover
13 values
14 (emp_recover_rec.empno,
15 emp_recover_rec.ename,
16 emp_recover_rec.job,
17 emp_recover_rec.mgr,
18 emp_recover_rec.hiredate,
19 emp_recover_rec.sal,
20 emp_recover_rec.comm,

Please help me. I'm new to Oracle.

Hello all
I'm Sean and new to Oracle and wana purse learning Oracle Forms&Reports but to start I need to also learn Oracle DataBase as well.
Please I know you're all busy but HELP me to fix this problem and start learning Oracle.
I've installed oracle DB 10G. XE. without any problem and have been using it everyday BUT I just installed Oracle SQL Dev v. 1.2.1.... and can't creat a new connection. (it's all installed in my compaq laptop using Win XP SP 3).
I've been reading all the comments in forums but I'm still stuck. PLEASE SOME ONE HELP ME.
Learning from all you guys comment I looked at my Listener.ora and it looks like this:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Shawn_COMPAQ)(PORT = 1521))
DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)
and my sqlnet.ora looks like this:
# This file is actually generated by netca. But if customers choose to
# install "Software Only", this file wont exist and without the native
# authentication, they will not be able to connect to the database on NT.
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
The tnsnames.ora looks like this:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SHAWN_COMPAQ)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = CLRExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
from looks of it comparing to what I have seen in ppl's comments and copy&past of files in forums, my 3 files all looks weird and I guess it missing lot of things.
when I try to create a new connection to see built-in schema (HR) all though it's unlocked but sql dev can't establishes a connection.
In New \ Select database connection window for following fields iI put:
Hostname = localhost:1521:orcl (I 've tried just putting localhost)
Port = 1521
SID = orcl
In my browser when I am in home page of DB 10g XE the URL reads: http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4500:1000:4313426409493576
When i put hostname = localhost (or either 127.0.0.1) and port = 1521 and SID = orcl, I'm getting error :
status: failure-listener refused the connection with following error - ORA-12505, TNS: listener doesn't currently know of SID given in connect descriptor The connection descriptor used by client was: localhost:1521:orcl .
When I just change the Port to 8080 I get the error:
Status: failure-Io Exception: Got minus one from a read call.
By default DB 10g XE installed in: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\.............
and all the mentioned files (3 files mentioned above) are in: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\ADMIN
Please I know you're all busy but HELP me to fix this problem.
God bless you.
tnx
Sean

Thanks a lot.
Yes. It works well now.
In it's documentation it says put orcl for SID but never thought to try default xe.
You're the man.
tnx

Hi, i am new to oracle, SQL DEVELOPER:- ERROR:- ORA-01918

Hi,
I am new to oracle, and i have installed Oracle database 12c enterprise edition, and oracle jdeveloper 12c for adf web application development,
I created a database and a new connection in it using sql developer, however while trying to create new user with the name db1 by right clicking on other users. by following the instructions in oracle documentation site. i get the error that new user db1 doesnt exist, and gives error:- ORA-01981. i even tried by changing the username as i thought may be it doesnt support alphanumeric name, but still i get the same error.
So please tell me how to create a new user. is there any way to get out of this ora:-01918, as i googled and it says this is a bug.
My os is win 7 x64(amd processor ).
Thank you
Baldwin

A new user (called a schema in Oracle) is created using the CREATE USER SQL command. You need to be signed in as the SYS schema/user or as a schema that has been granted the rights to create schemas.
12c database comes in two basic flavours. Container database (containing pluggable databases). Standard database. If connected to a container database, you cannot create standard user schemas - you need to be connected to a pluggable database.
Also, your question has no relevance to either the SQL or PL/SQL languages - the subject matter of this forum. Please repost your question to a more appropriate forum dealing with SQL-Developer issues.

Allowable Characters in the file names within Oracle iFS

What characters are allowable in file names within Oracle iFS?
Are slashes (/ \) possible?
Thanks,
Sai Mummalaneni.

Be carefull with file and directory names in iFS. You might be able to create folders and add document to it through the web interface that the windows explorer interface might not be able to interpret. Like a directory named '.'.

Oracle.ifs.admin.export.ExportUsers NOT working in SILENT mode

I'm trying to export my CMSDK users via the commandline script (since the GUI tool MAKES YOU SELECT EACH USER ONE AT A TIME!!!) but it is not working. The CMSDK doc incorrectly tells you to run oracle.ifs.admin.export but I've found that you have to run ...ExportUsers. However my def file has the runsilent attr set but the GUI app still pops up???? Below is my script
#!/bin/sh
IFS_ROOT_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME/ifs
export IFS_ROOT_HOME
. $ORACLE_HOME/ifs/common/bin/ifsunixcmds
. $ORACLE_HOME/ifs/cmsdk/bin/system/ifssetenv
CLASSPATH=${IFS_CLASSPATH}
export CLASSPATH
java -Xmx64M oracle.ifs.admin.export.ExportUsers /d01/app/oracle/product/oas904mid/ifs/cmsdk/export/export-users.def
And here is my def file...
IFS.EXPORT.RunSilent=true
IFS.EXPORT.Username=system
IFS.EXPORT.Password=manager9ifs
IFS.EXPORT.Service=IfsDefault
IFS.EXPORT.SchemaPassword=gapp1969
IFS.EXPORT.LogFile=export-users.log
IFS.EXPORT.USER.ExportedUsers=bdillon
IFS.EXPORT.ExportSetName=dev-users
IFS.EXPORT.ExportToPath=/d01/app/oracle/product/oas904mid/ifs/cmsdk/export/
IFS.EXPORT.ExportTreeSize=50
IFS.EXPORT.USER.GetAllAncestors=true
IFS.EXPORT.USER.GetDirectAncestors=false

Pl see your other thread here - libxp.so.6
You cannot terminate an install before successful completion and expect things to work flawlessly ;-)

Oracle.ifs.clients.webui

When I try using the following import statement my jsp will not display:
<%@ page import = "oracle.ifs.clients.webui.resources.JspResourcesID"%>
(I can use <%@ page import = "oracle.ifs.clients.webui.resources.WebUIResources"%> with no problems.)
Any ideas? Do I have the syntax wrong?
Thanks.

I think you want "oracle.ifs.clients.webui.resources.JspResources", not "oracle.ifs.clients.webui.resources.JspResourcesID".
The ID file only has static strings in it.

New in oracle webcenter

Hi , i am new in oracle webcenter .I am quite confuse now .Can anyone tell me what software should i need to install to try the oracle webcenter? I has already download Oracle Jdeveloper, Weblogic , Database ,Webcenter suite and Oracle RCU. Is it compulsory to install all the software on my PC? So far I am using window 7 64 bit.
In addition , can anyone give me some note which are best for the newbie to try the oracle webcenter?
I know this question is quite stupid. Special thanks to anyone who help me :)

You don't need to install all that software if you want to test the basic functionality of WebCenter.
JDeveloper is the IDE that you will be using to develop the portal. When you have installed Jdev, go to Help, Check for updates and look for the WebCenter extensions. Download and install them.
JDeveloper will than restart and when you create a new application you will see additional templates:
WebCenter Portal application: this is the template that allows you to create a portal with webcenter
Portlet producer: this template will create an application that allows you to create JSR 286 portlets that can be consumed in a webcenter portal or any other JEE portal with WSRP support.
The webcenter extensions do not contain the webcenter services like document services, discussion forums, activity streams and so on. If you also want to test them out, than you will need to install weblogic + webcenter suite.
A good start is the tutorial. I am currently in the procces of writing one. Currently i only have finished 2 parts but it's a start :)
http://www.yonaweb.be/webcenter_tutorial/introduction
You will also find lots of other examples and articles on my blog :)
You can also download the prebuild VM from Oracle: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/downloads/owcs-portalfw-vbox-284132.html
This VM does contain a full installation of the webcenter portal framework with the services (webcenter spaces is not installed on this VM).
And this is the tutorial from Oracle: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/webcenter.1111/e10273/toc.htm
