Apex Integration with EBS R12 - javax.servlet.ServletException

Morning,
We are in the process of upgrading from 11i to R12 and we have found that our method of launching Apex in 11i no longer works in R12. We are trying to follow the following instructions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf and have created a .jsp file and compiled as per the document. When we try to launch the function from apps though we get:
An exception occured.

The missing class is not available from any code-source or loader in the system.I've XXX'ed out our domain. Has anyone else has this, or can anyone who has successfully integrated apex with EBS R12 let me know what they did?
Thanks

Hi,
If the jsp compiled successfully then you may need to bounce your web server before the jsp can be used. See MOS Note 458338.1 for more details.
Actually, now that Oracle have updated their FND Gateway for Apex integration there are only a few situations (such as if you want to pass parameters from the form function to Apex) where you need to use a custom jsp to launch Apex. In most cases you can use the Oracle supplied GWY.jsp to launch your Apex Page. To use this jsp you must apply the EBS R12 patch 12316083 (and patch 12726556 if you are launching from the forms navigator). How to use the GWY.jsp is described in "Extending Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 using Oracle Application Express" white paper.

APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 - no SSO

I am trying to complete APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 in simplest way. I have a non authenticated report page that I need to link to through a menu and function on one of the existing forms.
Rod West document
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf
offers the jsp approach which I like to implement however the jsp will not compile correctly and I am not sure why - I have already fond one error with the code as listed in the document:
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp ' retry ---> will not work
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp' retry --> will work
compile will fail starting at this point of the code:
PARALLEL COMPILATION: 1
[10389] !!COMPILATION ERROR(0) LaunchApex.jsp:
_LaunchApex.java:70: illegal start of type
if (ctx==null) {
^
has anyone tried this approach and got the jsp to compile with no errors or can you see what is it?
thanks in advance.

Hello Mini:
thanks for the info and I have followed the steps as listed. I am not sure what line is the bad code you listed is on - here is the copy of the jsp I am working with and maybe you can point to a specfic line(s) that need to be changed from what to what.

OBIA 7.9.6.3 security integration with EBS R12.1.2

Hi Experts,
We are implementing OBI Apps 7.9.6.3 with EBS R12.1.2 as source.We need to integrate Active Directory with OBIEE and implement security of BI Apps with EBS R12.1.2. Need help on this.
How to map EBS Responsibilities into Application Role and Groups? Whether we need to create one Application Role and Group for each responsibility ? Then provide permissions in rpd for each of them? The user should have similar permission in BI as they have in EBS - like people can see only US Finance data in EBS should see only US Finance data in BI also.
Regards,
mvsst

You can go through obia security guide which explains step by step procedure with screenshot on how to implement ebs authentication and role based access.
here is the link.

Discoverer integration with EBS R12 !!!

Hello Sir,
I need help to install/integrate Discoverer with R12.
Actually, our clients are using Discoverer 4i in current EBS 11.5.10.2 in production. We have just upgraded EBS in TEST environment from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3.
I had suggested client that Discoverer 4i is actually de-supported and they need to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 10.1.2.3 or higher to integrate it with R12.1.3.
Now, client also have requirement for Discoverer to be certified with MS Excel 2010 format. So I have suggested to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 11.1.1.4.
Latest certified Discoverer version is 11.1.1.7.0 as per note Using Discoverer 11.1.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 1074326.1)
1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
2) Do I need to first install separate 10gAS for installing Discoverer 10.1.2.3 or Fusion middleware home for installing Discoverer 11g ? If yes, where can I find doc for this installation ?
3) Since 10g support has ended July 2013, where can I get media for installing 10gAS ?
4) Is there any additional licences required for using either Discoverer 10g or Discoverer 11g ?

1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
In addition to the doc you have, please see:
https://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/discoverer_11_1_1_7
How to Test Discoverer Integration with E-Business Suite 11i and Release 12? (Doc ID 1065257.1)
Running Discoverer Reports From EBS R12 (Doc ID 1516784.1)
R12: How to Create a Link to a Discoverer Workbook (Doc ID 471303.1)
2) Do I need to first install separate 10gAS for installing Discoverer 10.1.2.3 or Fusion middleware home for installing Discoverer 11g ? If yes, where can I find doc for this installation ?
Installation Recommendations - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
Installer Screens - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0)
3) Since 10g support has ended July 2013, where can I get media for installing 10gAS ?
You can download WebLogic 10.3.6 from WebLogic Server 12c (12.1.1), WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.6) and Previous Releases
4) Is there any additional licences required for using either Discoverer 10g or Discoverer 11g ?

Help needed in Apex Integration with EBS

Hi All,
Currently, when trying to integrate with EBS these are the steps I followed.
1) Created apex generate hash and apex launch procedure in APPS DB.
2) Created Profile in Application Developer Responsibility.
3) Saved above profile in system administrator -->Profile -> System and set the site level as http://<hostname>:<Apex port>/pls/apex
4) Created a function in system administrator , type as SSWA plsql function and called the launch procedure and passed parameters as my apex application and page id.
5) Created a Web PL/SQL entry under System Administrator Responsibility -> Security -> Web PL/SQL for the launch procedure.
6) Created menu, responsibility and assigned to the user.
For the APEX application , currently I have not given any login page. The login is through EBS only. I have given logout URL in apex application to EBS Login page. Now my problem is , when I click Logout the session of EBS does not get invalidated. How can I achieve this ?
Secondly, When I give the APEX application URL directly in the browser it will open without asking for the EBS login credential. But I do not want this to happen. I need it to be authenticated through EBS login credential.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
Alaka

Hi Scott,
I tried the solution given in this URL.
http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2008/11/oracle-application-express.html
It is not working for me.. I tried in the forum also.
While creating authentication scheme I gave Oracle EBS Login Page as Session Not Valid URL. But every time I login to EBS and click responsibility then menu which has APEX screen, it is not validating username and password and it redirects to EBS login page which i gave in "session not valid URL" (it is going to a loop.)
Now my problem is when I login to EBS and click responsibility then my APEX screen should validate the EBS login and directly it should open. It should not ask for any other (APEX login)login page. If I paste the APEX application URL in any browser it should ask for EBS login page.
When I logout it should invalidate the session of EBS.
Thanks
Alaka

APEX integration with EBS 11i10: view concurrent request output

Hi All:
ENV: APEX 4.0
EBS: 11i10
DB: 10r2
APEX is installed in the same database as EBS 11i10
1. I have developed a APEX application that is can be launched from EBS as a form function. Also, the APEX will not ask any credential when user launch it from EBS, since user is already authenticated. Also, APEX will also display FND username, responsibility for user who has login - <<This is already implemented>>
2. by Default, APEX will display a page, where user can browser and import a csv file into a predefined custom table <<This is already implemented>>
3. After csv file is imported into cusotm table, user will click "Submit" button to process the data. APEX will submit a concurrent request (eventually, the concurrent program will call Oracle API to process data). A concurrent request is will display on the apex page. << This is WIP and I don't forsee any issue to implement this, since many have done this before>>
4. User will write down the request id from step 3 and go to another apex page. In this page, user will enter request id and click "View Output", which should retrieve the concurrent output for that request id and display the output in a new browser. I don't want user go back to EBS to view the concurrent output. << This is my question for this thread>>
My question for step 4: is there a seeded EBS API (FND_???) that I can call by passing a request id and API should display the concurrent request output in a browser automatically? Assuming, I will use fnd_global.apps_initialize() API in this page to set EBS env properly.
My question may not be a direct APEX question; however, I hope someone can offer some help to me. I have done numerous research on this and still haven't find this API.
Thanks!
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
I am having an issue implementing the Call from an EBS menu entry to the APEX Page.
I created the menu entry as a SSWA Function that use the apex_launch procedure to call the APEX page but when the user clicks on the option menu, the EBS login page appears.
Can you share with me how can I fix this?
Thanks
AEstrada.

Apex integration with EBS

Hi Rod,
I am able to redirect the to the apex page. Now the concern is that it is asking for the user name and password. If I type my EBS user name and password it works.
But the main concept is that it should not ask for user name and password. Those values should be passed through cookies. Can you please help me with the same

and your database is running with NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=CHAR, then you need to change it to NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS = BYTE. The following technique can be used for this change:
1. alter system set nls_length_semantics = BYTE scope = spfile;
2. shutdown the database
3. restart the database
Will be glad if you can help in solving it.

Integration of Oracle Apex with EBS R12.1.1

Dear All,
We are in process of integrating Oracle Apex 4.0.2 with EBS R12.1.1 with the help of http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf.
After doing all the steps, the moment when we navigate from EBS application to Apex application by clicking on the EBS menu link it ends up with below error
"404 Not Found
Resource /OA_HTML/null/pls/apex/f not found on this server"
After some analysis i found the below code in "LaunchApex.jsp" for getting the profile value (supposed to be 'http://myserver:port') from custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" and prefixing to "/apex/f?p=applicationid:page::APPS:::" is not happening properly
String l_launcher = ctx.getProfileStore().getProfile("APEX_HTTP_SERVER");
l_launcher = l_launcher + "/apex/f?p=" + p_application + ":" + p_page;
l_launcher = l_launcher + "::APPS:::" + p_item_names + ":" + p_item_values;
as we found that the custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" not exist in EBS system. But it works without any page error if we hard code the entire apex application URL in l_launcher variable, but this takes us to EBS login page instead of Apex application page.
So i feel we can't bypass using profile value from "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" as it has some relation with EBS application session.
So could anyone please help me how we could create custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" or any other options to make the seamless integration of Oracle apex with EBS works without any second login page
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Create a profile under Application Developer Responsibility as follow:
Name OAE_LAUNCHER
Application <whatever>
User Profile Name Oracle Application Express Launcher
Description Oracle Application Express Launcher
2. Set above profile value under System Administrator Responsibility -> Profile -> System, and search for the ‘OAE_LAUNCHER’.
Set the value at Site Level as:
http://<hostname>:<Apex port>/pls/apex
Then instead of hardcoding the URL in the jsp, just give the profile name OAE_LAUNCHER that you have just created in the jsp.
Hope this helps you

Integrating Oracle Apex 4.0.2 with EBS R12.1.1

We could successfully integrate Oracle Apex 4.0.2 with EBS R12.1.1 with the help of http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf.
The document says to navigate from EBS to Oracle Apex without any second login screen (works great!!), but now how do we navigate back to EBS from Oracle Apex (in same session) without any login screen again as like below
EBS User login --> EBS --> Oracle Apex --> EBS
Please help to achieve this.

Hi,
Under the Authentication scheme of your application in the Logout URL Section, give the following
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.logout_then_go_to_url?p_args=&APP_ID.:http://xyz.ck.com:8010/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=OAHOMEPAGEspecify your ebiz suite url instead of http://xyz.ck.com:8010 in the above link.
so, that while pressing the Logout link in your apex, you wont be redirected to the ebiz login page again, and it will redirect to you ebiz menu home page back in the same session itself.
This will work for sure.
Good Luck!!!
Change your User handle from "805196" to a meaningful word.
Brgds,
Mini

This content cannot be displayed in a frame after integrating Endeca with EBS R12.2

Hi,
I just integrated endeca with EBS R12.2 , after I ran option 6 (envSetup.sh) , bounced Studio Managed server , now I am not able to see data on eAM or Payable Dashboard.
when I click on Payable Dashboard , I get "This content cannot be displayed in a frame "
Did I miss any step ?
Thanks

cfselect with bind to cfc works but is followed by 500 Jrun javax.servlet.ServletException

All;
This is driving me crazy.
I have a CFC with a function that returns countries via remote as JSON with the // prefix as Cold Fusion is configured.
I call it with the following url
www.mydomain.com/getCountriesAndStates.cfc?method=getCountries&returnFormat=json&argumentC ollection={}&_cf_nodebug=true&_cf_nocache=true
It returns countries according to the Cold Fusion specs (just imagine it returning all countries, didn't want to paste it all the countries here).
//[[0.0,"Please select a country..."],["US","UNITED STATES"],["CA","CANADA"]]
I bind a <cfselect for countrycode to this CFC and it works about 30% of the time.
Here is the <cfselect
<cfselect name="CountryCode" id="spanCountryCode" bind="cfc:getCountriesAndStates.getCountries()" bindonload="true" onChange="DEdetermineTohide(this.id, '1')" onKeyUp="DEdetermineTohide(this.id, '1')">
        </cfselect>
It has a second function that returns the States with a CountryCode as the argument.
I call it with the follow url
/getCountriesAndStates.cfc?method=getStateProvince&returnFormat=json&argumentCollection={" countrycode":"US"}&_cf_nodebug=true&_cf_nocache=true
It returns states according to the old Fusion specs (just imagine it returning all the states, didn't want to paste all the states here.)
//[[0.0,"Please select a state..."],["AL","ALABAMA"],["AK","ALASKA"]]
I bind a <cfselect to this CFC with the countrycode as an argument and it populates the states for the countrycoe about 30% of the time. It fails when the getCountries call fails.
Here is the State <cfselect
<cfselect name="StateCode" bind="cfc:getCountriesAndStates.getStateProvince({CountryCode})">
        </cfselect>
I have a third funtion that returns whether or not the country selected has States and Zip Codes. I call this function from a seperate javascript script included in the header and fired from the <cfselect name="CountryCode for onChange or onKeyUp. It basically determines whether or not to show or hide both the State or Zip span but calls the CFC so that I can encapsulate everything in one place. So the state and zip span with <cfselect and <cfinput appear and disappear based on the information about the country and state and the labels can change too from State to Province and from Zip to Postal Code etc...
/getCountriesAndStates.cfc?method=getStateZipMetaData&returnFormat=json&argumentCollection ={"countrycode":"US"}&_cf_nodebug=true&_cf_nocache=true
Ok, so I hope I have described enough about what I am doing. This works about 30% of the time and fails about 70% of the time. Flawlessly. Sometimes it works for hours. But eventually for some reason AFTER a perfectly good JSON response is returned from Cold Fusion, the Cold Fusion server starts following the JSON response with a 500 Serverlet Exception error. This happesn on all function calls until I reboot my machine.
It is driving me mad and making me start to reconsider whether or not I want to use CFForm binding. It seems like a nice elegant solution that really simplifies and reduces the amount of javascript I have to write, but I can't go to production with forms that produce 500 server errors.
Anyone have any ideas on what is going on? If this is a bug?
Should I just stay away from <cfform binding?
Please help because it is driving me really crazy.
My platform information is below.
About 70% of the time it returns all the countries followed by a 500 Servlet Exception error.

Ok, so I think I answered this for myself. This may be ignorant. Whatever. I haven't programmed CF in over 10 years and just started again a month ago, so I think advanced CFC and javascript is a lot.
I seperated my CFC into a directory with a Alias mapping under Apache and a CF Mapping from CFIDE
I trimmed down the application.cfc
It was
<cfset This.clientstorage="Cookie">
That was causing the remoting CFC's to return a 500 Jrun Servlet Error
I am just going to keep my remote CFC's seperate from the rest of my application anyway because they need a different type of security schema.
So, if anyone struggles with this. I recommend just put your remotely accessd CFC's in a seperate virtual directory mapped from your webserver and CF and lock them down both with a trimmed down application.cfc and some kind of security.
They also seem to run much faster now combined with my other Ajax and Javascript.

Javax.servlet.ServletException: The name "" is not legal for JDOM/XML namespaces

Dear all,
First of all sorry, if this is not the right place for my question.
I am facing some problem with the XFire Webservices. When i am trying to access the WSDL through the url. server is throwing the following exception :
javax.servlet.ServletException: The name "" is not legal for JDOM/XML namespaces: Namespace URIs must be non-null and non-empty Strings.

cont.......
I am not able to figure out the root cause for this. The service.xml file looks like below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://xfire.codehaus.org/config/1.0">

<bean id="castorTypeRegistry" class="org.codehaus.xfire.castor.CastorTypeMappingRegistry"/>

<bean id="castorServiceFactory" class="org.codehaus.xfire.service.binding.ObjectServiceFactory">
<constructor-arg index="0" ref="xfire.transportManager"/>

</bean>
<service>

<implementationClass>com.pinkroccade.jfoundation.calculation.releases.ReleaseManagerImpl</implementationClass>
<schemas>
<schema>META-INF/schema/release-impact-worksheet-3.2.0.xsd</schema>
</schemas>
<style>document</style>
<serviceFactory>#castorServiceFactory</serviceFactory>
</service>
</beans>

The issue which i am facing is it due to the problem with the service.xml (Which i dont think so..), Or is it any thing to do with the XSD file which i am using.
Can any body give me some guide lines for this ????
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Manjunath.

Any one any thoughts..
I need to find out the solution for this as soon as possible; Not able to proceed further...
Thanks and Regards,
Manjunath.
