BPA Suite Installattion Problem (Step 7)

HI All,
I am trying t install BPA Suite Trial version but during installation it comes till STEP 7 and halts there.
When the tool asks for DB setup , i had selected 'Express Setup' option and provided the Oracle SID and password.
I think i waited for around 30 min at step 7 but there was no output after that.
Please suggest !

Donot know what exactly happened. I intalled it two times and both the times i faced the problem . But when i installed it the third time it worked fine.

BPA Suite Installation problems

Hi all,
i installed Oracle BPA Suite in my laptop with XP to make some proofs of concept. So, first i installed the Oracle 10gR2 database and due my laptop uses an ip address assigned by dhcp, first i had to activate the loopback interface with a fixed address (192.168.1.1), a kind of address like the db documentation recommends. Also, i added a line in my hosts file like the following:
192.168.1.1 NTBTEAJESPINOZA.sigfe.local
After that i completed the installation process for the BPA Suite.
Once the installation finished, i had to modify two configuration files ArisLauncher.cfg and AdminAgentLauncher.cfg, appended the ip address to the agent profile options, like this:
<Profile name="Agent" port="17053" threadpoolsize="20" options="--host 192.168.1.1">
</Profile>
After that i launched the Oracle BPA Repository, which show me that run without problems. The log file shows this information:

BPA Suite 11g Installation halts at Step 10

Hello,
I have downloaded BPA Suite 11G from OTN. The installation of BPA suite halts at step 10. No error occures. I was waiting for 10-15 minutes to finish the installation. I am using 11G data base installed along with R12.1 on the virtual machine.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Pankaj

Thanks Ashish,
I checked the charsets and tried to update the database charset to match it with BPA suite documentation. However, could not update it as the documentaton charset was not super set of database charaset.
However, after restarting the computer and database the issue got resolved.
Thanks again for your help,
Pankaj

Oracle BPA suite NOT WORKING

I download BPA suite today and installed in Window XP. But when I click create new model and group, it goes on starting standard database and error saying "unable to run local business server" What am I doing wrong or what I have to do to rectify this.
I ask my coworker to install this. He has the same problem as I have.
Not sure how to do about this????????????

HI,
I have posted a work around for this problem in other threads of this forum, please go through them.
by the way, this is a problem thats been occuring to too many people. high time that oracle does something about it. :) ,
i have not been able to replicate this problem to be able to work on this.

Is there training for tool BPA Suite?

Hello,
I am a Process Analyst and I am studying the features of the tool BPA.
I wonder if there are training to learn the features of the tool in practice?
Can I use the BPA without integration with BPEL for example?
I need to understand the concept of the tool and any structure that exists for integration.
I have installed the BPA Suite and I am doing some tests, but I can not develop in more detail, I need a training or a guide with more details.
Please, somebody help me?
Tanks
Daniela

hi
yes u can use BPA without integration with BPEL.
You might want to to go to the demo database and look how the modeling is done ... read the Quick start guide ... also the method manual for understanding ARIS House and model types etc..
May be u have gone through the following steps .. just see if you have these done:
Install Architect
Open architect:
Go to explorer
right click on the network symbol and add a server (if you have repository installed somewhere ( give the ip of that server))
if you dont have a repository then go to local server
right click on server and create a new database
default user is system and default password is manager.... chose the method filter as entire method (method fiters define what is available in terms of symbols, connection types etc to the logging user ..)
right click on the main folder create folders of ur choice .... right click on folders to create a new models ... there are several model types ..most popular one is an eventdriven process chain .. EPC... (go to help...then methods to understand the different model types....)
if you create a new model it opens up in designer... do take time out to understand concept of occurrence, variant and definition objects, models....
there are several ways BPA can be used ... its up to ur imagination how u want to use it...
these steps are very basic and .. there are thousands of other things you can do with BPA...... just read through the methods manual first ..

BPA Suite 10.1.3.4

Hello,
I need the exact link to download BPA Suite 10.1.3.4 full version (im an oracle employee), i dont find it on the edelivery site.
The second question is, upgrading from a evaluation version to a full version, i need to do this step:
Upgrading from evaluation copy to full version
If a full version is installed after an evaluation copy, please delete <userprofile>\.BPA10.1.3.4\user.cfg.
Can anyone confirm this?
Best Regards
JE

Hi,
no idea about the download link, bt about the user.cfg file..
it jst contains login credential and initial settings. when you open Business architect, whatever you syore Under
View --> Options.. location is stored in user.cfg file.....
since you just wana upgrade from evaluation to full version, you will have to just enter the license key... n restart the application and the only change u will see is the the warning message which say XX Days remaining wont pop up...
no need to delete any thing....
i will be happy to answer any more queries on this topic...
Regards
Gaurav Sharma :)

BPA Suite

Hi,
I just started working on BPA Suite and downloaded it from OTN.
Installed Architect and Publisher.
From the Installation and Admin guide we came to know that we need to install the repository and web client also.
But the installation from OTN doesnt have the above components.
I open the BPA Architect designer and try to connect to the local server but failed.
Can anybody tell how to proceed further?
It would be appreciate if anybody post their docs other than installation and admin guide.
Thanks In Advance.

Hi there,
the version on OTN is for evaluation purposes, which does not include the "external" repository. If you'd like to test BPA you can use the LOCAL server, which has exactly the same functionality. It comes with the installation and the only restriction is that you will have everything on one machine. Keep the Architect open when you try to connect to the LOCAL repository from JDev.
After BPA installation I always run a check through the BPA Suite Admintool. Make sure that your XE db is up and running. Open the Admintool and connect to the LOCAL server via:
* server LOCAL SITEADMIN (case sensitive)
Run the following commands to create and display a test-database on the Local server:
* createdb NAME DBADMIN
* list
Can you see the DB? Check out the logfiles via:
* download logs C:\tmp
If the steps above could be performed, open the Business Architect, go to the Explorer module and click on the already existing LOCAL server. A popup window appears --> "Starting standard database system...". After the server has been started try to add a new database and so on...
If the steps above are not working have a look to the log-files under: <BPA HOME>\LocalServer\log.
Hope it helps,
Danilo.

Sequence diagram lifeline in Oracle BPA Suite

I try to create sequence diagram in Oracle Busines Process Architect 11g. I use type of model "UML Sequence diagram". But in palette there is no object with type "Lifeline". How can I add lifelines to my sequence diagram?

i guess you are clicking on file>new>model , or something like that.
y dont you first go to designer/explorer , make sure you see the navigator frame, and click on "local" in navigator frame to start the local database first. adn then login to any database to create a model/group.
In case it does not even happen then, and it still says unable to start the local server, check out the logs in <Oracle BPA Suite>\LocalServer\log directory and check what the error is.

BPA suite 11g and Jdev 10g

hello,
BPA11G is also compatible with JDEV10 ? I can use Jdev 10g with BPA suite 11g or not ? or we must install Jdev 11g ? (send a document about this)
BR,

Hi,
please install the JDeveloper 11g and apply the newest "BPA Extension for JDeveloper". Install the BPA Extension using the JDeveloper Update Center. From the JDeveloper menu choose Help > Check for Updates. Browse and pick the pcbpel_bundle.zip found in the Oracle BPA Suite 11g Addons.
It is necessary to keep the JDeveloper and BPA Suite version consistent, especially for the major releases 10 or 11. This is because in 11g a BPEL process is part of a SOA Composite, which means the technical concept has been changed as well.
Best regards,
Danilo

Scope of simulation in BPA suite

Hi,
What is the scope of simulation in BPA suite.
* If we provide processing time and/or cost involved in each fuctional lock, then while simulation, we can get an analysis based on this.
* Simulation can identify few weak points in your business process. But how is a weak point identified. Any rule available for this?
Apart from this what is the significance of Simulation in BPA. Can it provide any other useful inference or suggestion, that can help improving the process.
Thanks,
Vishnupriya

Hi Vishnupriya,
"how do we find the critical path using BPA suite." You can perform a cost and/or a time analysis - it depends on your preferences. A disadvantage of the cost analysis is, that the cost attributes can only be defined for functions. It is not possible to specify relation-dependent costs (e.g. different costs if a function is performed by a manager or a clerk). Below I am concentrating on a time analysis.
a) Identify bottlenecks
After you performed the simulation you need to analyse the statistics. Each object type has its own simulation attributes - check the help section under "What simulation-relevant object types exist" to get further information. For comparison the following categories/attributes are very useful indicators to identify bottlenecks:
* Processes (cumul.): Created processes, Completed processes, Process folders in static wait state and Process folders in dynamic wait state
* Events (cumul.): Activations
* Functions (cumul.): Process folders in dynamic wait state
* Processes (det.): Throughput time (min.), Throughput time (max.)
Hint: Increasing throughput times, high dynamic wait time sums and a high degree of utilization (for human resources) are indicators of bottlenecks.
b) Identify modeling faults
E.g.: If you have a gateway in your model and the "Process folders received" is always equal to "Process folders waiting" it means that the gateway cannot be passed. Normally it indicates a deadlock situation and you should check that each split in your model is properly joined. The issue can also be considered at the "Degree of activation", which will be equal to zero. Use the semantic check to ensure that your model-format is correct.
"how to do this comparison"Compare the relevant attributes (times, costs) of your As-Is and To-Be models. You have several options to perform the comparison:
a) create charts of both simulation runs
b) check the simulation statistics of both simulation runs
c) use the ARIS report functionality or create a user-defined report to extract the simulation results
Best regards,
Danilo

JDeveloper to BPA Suite Error

Hi there,
when I try to save my model to the bpa server in JDeveloper I get the following error: (Update BPMN Model checked)
java.lang.Exception: script ModelImport.js, line 141: Jdeveloper proposed model available in Oracle Business Process Architect, please accept or reject the proposed model. (ModelImport.js#141)

Although the BPA Suite notifcates me that the IT updated the process, there are no improvement proposals.
Has anybody had the same error? Is there a solution or workaround?

Have you teested teh IIOP connectivity with the session shell
(sess_sh)? Make sure that this works. The Connection URL will
look like:
sess_iiop://machine_ip_address:port:SID
If you are going through the listener (and the listener must be
configured to listen for IIOP) or like this:
sess_iiop://machine_ip_address:port
If you are going directly to the MTS Dispatcher port. You can see
what this port is by using the following command:
LSNRCTL services
See which port the presentation
oracle.aurora.server.SGiopServer
is on and use that port number. You do not use a SID when
connecting directly to the MTS dispatcher port since an MTS
dispatcher is specific to a given instance.

OracelBPA.exe - Install Evaluation Version - BPA Suite

I've downloaded the evaluation version of the BPA Suite and intended to install it with the embedded olite to see what it can do. The installation instructions say to install using OracleBPA.exe which is not part of the download.
1) Where do get that from? or
2) How can I install the Evaluation version (I have the installation document, just think I need to get the process started?)
I'm on Windows Server if that matters... and successfully downloaded and installed the BPM Eval. trying to figure out how these work together or not...
Edited by: user8748439 on Aug 24, 2009 6:40 AM
Fixed typos

Today I downloaded the .zip again, and there were different files, inlcuding the setup.exe that was missing.
Installed, and running.

Oracle BPA Suite Install

Hi,
I've done some browsing on BPA Suite today and found some great documents around it and would like to download BPA to get my hands dirty but can't seem to find any downloads for it.
On one of the documents I came accross I found a link to a download:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bpa/index.html
Can someone maybe let me know where we can download it or is it part of the BPM Suite Extention?
Tanks in advance...

I am also interesting in knowing when the new version will be posted. It would be help to remove non-working (expired ) versions to save people from 2 hrs of research./ trial and error.

check your operating system network protocole is TCP/IP is installed if so check is there any problem with these protocoles. this error is encounter generally due operating system network protocoles it is not an oracle error. here is discription.
TNS-12560 TNS:protocol adapter error
Cause: A generic protocol adapter error occurred.
Action: Check addresses used for proper protocol specification. Before reporting this error, look at the error stack and check for lower level transport errors.For further details, turn on tracing and re-execute the operation. Turn off tracing when the operation is complete.
