API Initialization

I'm trying to upgrade a Excel VBA application up to 6.5.7 (yes, I know it's old) I've imported the esb32.bas to get the correct definition. However when I try to run EsbInit, I get the error 1030019 "The Essbase API version (%s) for this application is incompatible with this version of the Essbase API (%s)" I've verified my run time client is Essbase 6.5.7 so I can't think of any reason why I should be getting any version incompatibility issue. I tried to tweak the ESB_API_VERSION to read &65000 which allows it to run but causes a crash when I close out of Excel. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Jeff

Just for curosity, why cant you use version 6.5 for the API?Below is the code for the declaration that has worked for me allthe time. Maybe it will help you.HTH

API.Initialize() never called. Perpetual "Loading..."

Using Catptivate 5, I am outputting for SCORM 2004. When I run this without an LMS, it runs fine, but when launched from the LMS, it perpetually says "Loading...".
I did some Javascript debugging in the files that are output with the Captivate SCORM Package. I noticed that is does find the API, but it never calls API.Initialize().
Doing some logging within the "function Captivate_DoFSCommand(command, args)" function, I notice it gets "cpSlideChanged" as the "command" parameter in an endless loop. Never anything else.
Any ideas at all?

Hi Bart
Indeed Adobe folks may pop in from time to time, but largely the forums are user-to-user. And the more users that decide to cram the channel Adobe listens to about bugs (the Wish Form/Bug Reporting Form) the more likely it is to see a patch emerge or the bug fixed in a future release.
Reporting link is in my sig line.

API Initialization failed for Essbase 11.1.1.3.0 – 64 bit

Hi,
When I try to initialize the Essbase API and message database, the EssInit() is returning the error code 1008156.But I didnt find any 1008156 error code in Essbase-Error-Message-Reference.
Kindly help me on this.

How about looking into the certification matrix:

Unable to initialize APIs

Hi,
I use Hyperion essbase 11.1.1.3. I have imported ESB32.bas file and just wrote a small code to check whether the apis gets initialized. But it does not get initialized. I get "API Initialization failed and hence Exiting". Here is my code.
Option Explicit
Declare Function EsbInit Lib "ESBAPIN.DLL" (Init As ESB_INIT_T, hInst As Long) As Long
Sub ESB_Init()
Dim hInst As Long
Dim Init As ESB_INIT_T
Dim sts As Long
ESB_FALSE = 0
ESB_TRUE = 1
' Define init structure
Init.Version = ESB_API_VERSION
Init.MaxHandles = 10
Init.LocalPath = "D:\Hyperion\products\Essbase"
Init.MessageFile = ""
Init.ClientError = ESB_TRUE
Init.ErrorStack = 100
' Initialize the API
sts = EsbInit(Init, hInst)
If sts = 0 Then
MsgBox ("API Initialization successful")
Else
MsgBox ("API Initialization failed and hence Exiting")
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub

on the machine you ar erunning this on have you installed the Essbase client or just smartview? you need to have the api.dlls installed for this to work. Check to see if you have a Hyperion\products\essbase\essbaseclient\api directory. If you do copy the dlls in the redist directory to the Hyperion\products\essbase\essbaseclient\bin directory and try again

Creating a new work item instance in a process using PAPI

I'm seeing that there are a lot of questions on this forum about using Oracle BPM 10g's Java API called PAPI.
I just uploaded a step by step document on how you could do this using JDeveloper 11. Here's the link to this document: http://www.4shared.com/file/126507332/e814a3a8/CallingPapi.html. The Oracle BPM project I used for this step-by-step document is also in this zip file. If you're curious, this also describes how to download, install and start JDeveloper 11.
This is not formal Oracle documentation, but I know from teaching our Oracle BPM Bootcamp class that getting PAPI to work is sometimes a challenge and thought this might help. I tried to write it with the "Java Newbie" in mind so do not panic if you aren't an expert in Java (I'm sure not ?:| ).
This is a simple example that uses most of the logic found in the PAPI documentation on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/papi/index.html?t=modules/papi/c_Head_PAPI.html in the "Writing Your First Java PAPI Program" section of this document.
The document provides a step-by-step description on how how to use PAPI to:
<li> interface to processes running on an Oracle BPM Enterprise Engine using the same logic that is in the Oracle BPM PAPI documentation
<li> interface to processes running on an Oracle BPM Studio Engine
<li> list processes currently running on the Engine using the same logic that is in the Oracle BPM PAPI documentation
<li> list the work item instances running on the Engine using the same logic that is in the Oracle BPM PAPI documentation
<li> create a new work item instance in a process and pass in input argument variables to the new instance as it is created.
Hope you find this useful,
Dan

Hi
i have gone through your example. It gives good information how to connect to BPM engine through java papi client. I have followed exactly the same steps given in the PDF document. But it throws the exception on both java client side and BPM Suite.
Steps followed :
1. Import sampleproject.exp into Oracle BPM studio and start the BPM engine.
2. Imported the fuegopapi-client.jar and Write the JAVA PIPA client to connect Oracle BPM Engine.
complete example code:_
import fuego.papi.CommunicationException;
import fuego.papi.InstanceInfo;
import fuego.papi.ProcessService;
import fuego.papi.ProcessServiceSession;
import fuego.papi.OperationException;

configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.DIRECTORY_ID, "default");
configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.DIRECTORY_PROPERTIES_FILE, "directory.xml");
configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.PROJECT_PATH, "C:\\Oracle\\OracleBPMWorkspace\\SampleProject" );
configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.WORKING_FOLDER, "/tmp");
try {
ProcessService processService = ProcessService.create(configuration);
/////////////////// Establish a session ///////////////////
ProcessServiceSession session = processService.createSession("test", "test", null);
/////////////////// Operate with PAPI ///////////////////

/////////////////// Close the session ///////////////////
session.close();
/////////////////// Release API Resources ///////////////////
processService.close();
} catch (CommunicationException e) {
System.out.println("Could not connect to Directory Service");
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (OperationException e) {
System.out.println("Could not perform the requested operation");
e.printStackTrace();
It throws the following exception and output on java client._

How to kill an instance process in BPM studio 6.0

Hi i'm Fabio.
I'm working on BPM Studio 6.0 and i need to complete a task.
I have an instance id process, and i need to create a new process in order to kill this istance id.
I read how to create a PAPI client (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/papi/index.html?t=modules/papi/c_Writing_Your_First_Java_PAPI_Program.html) but it doesn't work for my purpose.
First of all, i understood that i have to follow these step:
* Import the required libraries.
* Create a process service.
* Create a process service session.
* Perform operations with PAPI.
* Close the process service.
Now, i'm working on my xpdl file and i'm using the Standard Module "Fuego" and my plan is to create a process servcie, a process service session and then operate with PAPI.
But using the PAPI module include in the BPM studio 6.0 i'm no able to load the library for the session import fuego.papi.ProcessServiceSession;
so i'm worng something. Could you tell me how can menage this problem? Really do i need a session? Is possible to abort an istance process in BPM studio or i need to load my ear project in Enterprise environment and then kill my instance process? Thanks, regards Fabio.

Thanks Dan, i read your suggestion but my boss was to implement a different solution:

System.out.println(" -> " + instance.getId());
System.out.println("ActivityName -> " + instance.getActivityName());
System.out.println("ActivityId -> "+ instance.getActivityId());
//Problema: nn vuole ActivityId ma Process Id

Hi,
Your logic might be perfectly fine, but I noticed a couple things I do differently.
I uploaded a step-by-step instructions on how to invoke PAPI from Java (JDeveloper 10) for Oracle BPM 10g Enterprise Standalone to: http://www.4shared.com/file/119420269/57ff2b24/Oracle_BPM_Enterprise_Standalone_PAPI_from_JDev.html.

How to create process instance throught PAPI?

Hi,
Can someone share how do we use PAPI to create a process instance for the Expense Management process (process in the BPM tutorial)?
I believe it is through calling the processCreateInstance() method from a ProcessServiceSession object, however, what exactly do we pass in as a parameter? I tried simply by passing in the process name and an empty Arguments object and the following exception was logged:

I'm wondering why does it complain that "fuego.papi.ProcessNotAvailableException: Process '/ExpenseReport#Default-1.0' not available.", when the ExpenseReport process is indeed a process that was published?
P.S.: I know this thread is sort of a duplicate of another thread, however I hope we can get some real examples of how to create a process instance for the Expense Management project, using PAPI (instead of PAPI webservice).

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your prompt reply.. I tried with the above option but still am facing the same problem.
Let me give you the brief idea of what am working on;
1) I created a process using Oracle BPM Studio V: 10.3.1.0 & Build: #94375
2) I publish & deploy the process using Oracle BPM Admin Center which running on top of tomcat. But in the configuration I configure the directory as well as weblogic server.
3) I created a "Java Project" & included following jar file "b1base.jar","b1oracle.jar","b1util.jar","bcel.jar","ejb-api.jar","fuegopapi-client.jar","jms-api.jar","ojdbc14.jar","weblogic.jar","wljmsclient.jar".
4) I am using below program to create a PAPI Process Instance;
package ibm.com.papi;
import java.util.Properties;
import fuego.papi.CommunicationException;
import fuego.papi.InstanceInfo;
import fuego.papi.OperationException;
import fuego.papi.ProcessService;
import fuego.papi.ProcessServiceSession;
public class PAPIWithDirectoryFileExample {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          // ///////////////// API Initialization ///////////////////
          Properties configuration = new Properties();
          configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.DIRECTORY_ID, "default");
          configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.DIRECTORY_PROPERTIES_FILE, "C://tmp//directory.xml");
          configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.INSTANCES_CACHE_SIZE, "50000");
          configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.WORKING_FOLDER, "c://tmp");
          configuration.setProperty(ProcessService.UPDATE_SESSIONS_VIEWS, "true");
          System.setProperty("fuego.j2ee.initialctx.file","C:\\tmp\\engine.properties");
          System.setProperty("fuego.j2ee.initialctx.resource","engine.properties");
          System.setProperty("fuego.j2ee.initialctx.url","file://tmp/engine.properties");
          //engine.properties include below settings
          //System.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
          //System.setProperty("java.naming.provider.url", "t3://localhost:7001");

               for (String processId : session.processesGetIds()) {
                    System.out.println("\n Process: " + processId);
                    for (InstanceInfo instance : session
                              .processGetInstances(processId)) {
                         System.out.println(" -> " + instance.getId());
               fuego.papi.Arguments papiArgs= fuego.papi.Arguments.create();
               papiArgs.putArgument("inputNameArg", "inputString");
               InstanceInfo instInfo = null;
               instInfo = session.processCreateInstance("/Process#Default-1.0",papiArgs);
               String strInstanceID = instInfo.getId();
               System.out.println ("strInstanceID => [" + strInstanceID + "]" );
               // ///////////////// Close the session ///////////////////
               session.close();
               // ///////////////// Release API Resources ///////////////////
               processService.close();
          } catch (CommunicationException e) {
               System.out.println("Could not connect to Directory Service");
               e.printStackTrace();
          } catch (OperationException e) {
               System.out.println("Could not perform the requested operation");
               e.printStackTrace();

BPM 10.3 Studio how to use PAPI from stand alone java client

Would you help me ...., the search for the relevant information in this forum or documentation has not helped!
I'm running the BPM process via studio and trying to call it from the standalone java program.(According documentation
I need ... fuegopapi-client.jar and directory.xml )
Well, of course I could find somewhere directory.xml but it is not the right one .. What are the values(related to directory Service) which are needed to run this
java code agains the process started from the studio... ? So what I should do...? to setup and configure in BPM10.3 Studio to be able to run this code agains the
BPM process ...?
thanks a lot

Help ! Error after install Oracle Database patch 9.2.0.5 on AIX

My database version on AIX server is 9.2.0.1, and I installed the 9.2.0.5 patch to update it .
But when i run the catpatch.sql, the out of process memory exception always occured even if i change the java_pool_size and share_pool_size both to 200M in init.ora file.
and when i run bi_checkconfig.sh to check weither the olap can be used, I got these errors:

some one can help me ?

Why don't you (or your system administrator) simply do,what the message recommands?
The root user should execute '/usr/sbin/slibclean' You cannot remove the message itself. Run 'slibclean' and answer 'Y'. Unfortunately on the AIX platform it interrupts a silent installation.

Content Server not working after 5.0.2 upgrade

We upgraded the plumtree to 5.0.2. After upgrade, content server portlets not working properly. When I publish my portlet, Interface says it is published, HTML file generated at the published location, but log says
com.plumtree.search.UnknownTypeException: IndexManager.enqueue() : Could not find PTDocMaker for key PTCONTENT
Portlet displays
Error: No Url is available for this portlet. It may not have been published.
Any Idea ?

Hi Ravi, from the Release Notes for Content Server 5.0.2, there's this note "Publish Dialog does not show any error when search index fails but an error "com.plumtree.search.UnknownTypeException: IndexManager.enqueue() : Could not find PTDocMaker for key PTCONTENTTEMPLATE" is recorded in pcs.log. (Issue #27541) "
So you should make sure that the search server is running (just by doing a banner search). Assuming that's fine (it probably is), the likely culprit is an installation problem. Check the Content Server pcs.log file (located in PT_HOME\ptcs\5.0\settings\logs) for any error messages related to search api initialization. This cryptic error you're observing occurs when the search api initialization fails for some reason, the error is not gracefully caught and surfaced to the user. The pcs.log file may give a clue.

Change ProcessServiceSession session = processService.createSession("test","test", "anime"); to ProcessServiceSession session = processService.createSession("test","test", "/anime");

Role of an instance

Hi,
short question, how can I get the role of the active activity, when I have an instance object of another process (not the current one)?
I have tried to get the activity by "Activity(instance.activityName)", but this works only for activities of the current process, not of another one. So I tried to get the Process itself and cycle through the activity list, but there is also only the possibility to get the current one.
So, does anyone how to get the role for an instance of another process?
Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
Here's one approach to getting the name of the activity and the role for an instance if all you know is the instance's id (e.g "/Test#Default-1.0/2/0"). Sure there are better ways to have done this.
It's a bit of overkill (it retrieves all the instances for the process "Test" and shows all of their activity and role names).
As you know, the instance id is a String formatted like this: "/Test#Default-1.0/2/0". In this example, you can use this instance id string to figure out the instance's number ("2") for the instance and the process id ("/Test"). Since you know the instance id, your logic would just need to create the session and the filter and the second of the two "for" loops shown below. The second "for" loop is iterating through an array, but the array will always have only one value since there will only be one instance with the unique instance number.

Acrobat plug-ins PPKLite.api, HTML2PDF.api fail to initialize & file reducing plug-in not available

Trying to figure out why in last 2 wks I've been getting error messages when I open a PDF doc with Acrobat 7.0.9 professional. Initially 2 pop-ups saying error loading plug-ins PPKLite.api and HTML2PDF.api & they "failed to initialize. I can click OK & clear those error messages & proceed with what I'm doing, so they have just been an annoyance. Today I tried to reduce the size of a file, & got an error saying some of he required plug-ins are "not available. Some functions features may be disabled" - and it didn't reduce the file size. I need to be able to reduce PDF files on a regular basis. What can I do to fix both these annoyances & my file reducing plug-in problem?

Had the same problem with Acrobat 6.0 Pro.
Start with a test, Hold down the Shift key while starting Acrobat (from the time you double-click the icon, until it is initalized and ready to go).
This starts Acrobat without ANY plug-ins.
If this works without errors, go to this link and install all the updates, starting with the lowest. Select repair, if prompted, in the event the patch is already installed, or just cancel and continue working your way from lowest to highest revision, until your version is current.

For 6.0.0 I used (in order):
Ac60PrP1.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.2_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.3_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.4_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.5_Update.exe
Acro-Reader_6.0.6_Update.exe

How to initialize a replica by using Java API?

Hi, I used to initialize a replica by adding the attribute nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh=start to the replica agreement and it works fine by using the ldapmodify commandline utility. Now I am trying to use the Java API to do the same, but I always get the Object class violation error. And I noticed that when I use the Java API to create the replica, it has the different attributes than the one created by the commandline utility. The former has the serializedJavaData and javaClass, ... And I can't find any documentation on this issue. It's really frustrating! I am wondering if the replica agreement has different attribute for initializing? If so, why it's never documented?
I badly need your help!!!

Hi Govada,
(1)You need to add the MDM4j and other JAR files at:-
right click on project -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> Add External JARs
(2)If the project is Web Dynpro project one
then right click on project -> Web Dynpro Reference -> Library Reference -> and add sap.com/com.sap.mdm.tech.mdm4j
Are you using JAVA API 1 or 2???
Thanking you
