BPEL Integration with Oracle Virtual Directory (OVD)
Hi,
Can anyone explain me how to integrate an OVD with BPEL ( i.e., with app
server) for retrieving worklist users for human workflow process, as my user
details are scattered in two different LDAP, so that i can have OVD as single point
of access. Thanks in advance.
Regards
thiru
Sorry I miss read the initial post, white paper below states that it is possible, but no instrunctions. This is more to do with web services manager. Not sure if you are asking for Console authentication.
Sorry don't have background in OVD to provide further help.

How to integrate EBS(OracleApps11i)users into Oracle Virtual Directory(OVD)
Hi Experts,
We are using Oracle Virtual directory (OVD).
We have a requirement to integrate EBS (Oracle Application 11i) users into OVD. For this purpose we are using the Database adapter in OVD to do the same.
(Note: we could able to see the existing tables, but we don’t know how to integrate EBS users into OVD).
Are we following the correct approach? If not please give us your suggestions.
Thanks,
ParkerClarify your requirements.
OVD - as the name suggests is a virtual directory. What is your underlying directory? OID / Database?
If your integration need is limited to User Identity data level integration i.e provisioning / synch then you can use native services from OID.
If you are planning to do SSO - eBiz integration with an OVD ... not sure that is supported yet. because SSO - eBiz - OID is certified / supported ...and then you can do 3rd party SSO / Directory integration.
I would like Oracle to support eBiz - SSO/OVD integration so that we can have underlying directories ... but that may be a tall order --- for now.
Does this help?

Oracle Virtual Directory (ovd) admin password reset
Not that I have to do this but for troubleshooting purposes, I wanted to reset the binding/cn=admin password.
The passwd file is under [ovd root]\conf\htpasswd
And the utility is under [ovd root]\lib
Specifically, the htpasswd file looks like a key value pair with some sort of hash. A comment line at the top of this file says "use org.mortbay.util.Password to generate crypted passwords" so I tried running a jar that looked promising but it looks to start up an :8080 service.
Where is the documentation that addresses this file or password reset? The password was set during install, is that the only way you can reset it if it is lost (mine is not, just wondering)?This can be done using the OVD Manager (GUI) software. Use the OVD Manager to connect to the OVD Server and navigate to the Engine>Server>Security tab. From there you can simply enter a new password for CN=Admin.

Oracle Virtual Directory 10.1.4.3
Hi,
What all back-end directory servers and database servers are certified to work with Oracle Virtual Directory 10.1.4.3 on redhat linux AS4?
I tried to look for information on this, but could not get. All I found is this: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/idm_certification_101401.html#BABCABFC
It talks abt 10.1.4.0.x, but there is no mention of 10.1.4.3
Any pointers would be welcome.
Thanks.Hi Ambarish,
Metalink (note 778969.1) points to the same document for 10.1.4.3 certification as well.

How can we integrate OVD(Oracle Virtual Directory) with CDB(Content Databas
Hi,
We are using Oracle Content DB (10.2.0.0.0) which is integrated with OID (Oracle Internet Directory).
We are trying to use OViD (Oracle Virtual Directory) as Identity management for integrating multiple Directory sources like OID and Database.
Can you give us some suggestions or referrals on implementing OVD as Identity management for CDB.
Thank You,
ParkerHi,
I am looking at a similar architecture & would like to know if this can be achieved.
I have a set of users in OID and another set of users in Database tables. I want to abstract the two sources with OViD and present OViD as the single source of truth to Oracle AS 10.1.2 Single Sign On.
Can you please tell me if this is possible & if yes, can you please share some best practices ? Also, is this a certified & supported configuration ?
Thanks,

Integrating Oracle Virtual Directory with Oracle Internet Directory
Hi Experts,
Just wanted to know suggestions from you.... what are the advantages we have by integrating Oracle Virtual Directory with Oracle Internet Directory.
Thanks
parker.Hi Ken/Experts ,
Thanks for your response.
Still we need some more clarification on My Requirement that is, we are using ‘Oracle Single Sign On’ for my product and OID (Oracle Internet Directory) is enabled for this Single Sign On. Now we are planning to use OViD (Oracle Virtual Directory) for our Product so we integrated OID with OViD and now we are able to view the OID users in OViD. But Still My Product is using Single Sign On, which is enabled with OID only. Do we need to enable OViD (Oracle Virtual Directory) for Single Sign On? If yes please help us how to integrate (enable) OViD with Single Sign On.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,

Get error while Integrating with Oracle's Enterprise User Security
Hi,
I am trying to create an Oracle Enterprise User integrating with OVD and MS Active Directory.
I am following all the steps in Integrating with Oracle's Enterprise User Security.
In the documentation section: "Configuring Oracle Virtual Directory for the Integration"
I have applied the steps successfully until:
Update and load the entries into the Local Store Adapters by performing the following steps:
I have successfully extended the Oracle Virtual Directory schema with the loadOVD.ldif
However I am getting errors in the next step: Update realmRoot.ldif to use your namespaces
The next step states the following:
Update realmRoot.ldif to use your namespaces, including the dn, dc, o, orclsubscriberfullname,
and memberurl attributes in the file. If you have a DN mapping between Active Directory and
Oracle Virtual Directory, use the DN that you see from Oracle Virtual Directory.
The realmRoot.ldif file is located in ORACLE_VIRTUAL_DIRECTORY_HOME/eus,
where ORACLE_VIRTUAL_DIRECTORY_HOME represents the location where Oracle Virtual Directory is installed.
The realmRoot.ldif file contains core entries in the directory namespace that Enterprise User Security queries. The realmRoot.ldif file also contains the dynamic group that contains the registered Enterprise User Security databases to allow secured access to sensitive Enterprise User Security related attributes, like the user's Enterprise User Security hashed password attribute.
Load your domain root information in the realmRoot.ldif file into Oracle Virtual Directory using the following command:
ldapmodify -h Oracle_Virtual_Directory_Host –p OVD_Port -D cn=admin -w Admin_Password -v -a –f realmRoot.ldif
When I run the ldapmodify command I get the following error:
add dc:
testldap
add objectclass:
top
domain
domainDNS
adding new entry DC=testldap,DC=local
ldap_add: Operations error
ldap_add: additional info: LDAP Error 1 : null
The actual realmRoot.ldif looks like this:
# Please uncomment the following one line if you are importing this
# LDIF file via OVD Manager or OVD Server's ldapmodify tool.
#version: 1
#dn: dc=com
#dc: com
#objectclass: domain
dn: DC=testldap,DC=local
changetype: add
dc: testldap
#o: subarashii
objectclass: top
objectclass: domain
objectclass: domainDNS
#objectclass: orclSubscriber
#orclsubscriberfullname: subarashii
#orclVersion: 90400
# If your domain structure has more layers than dc=subarashii,dc=com,
# for example, it's dc=us,dc=subarashii,dc=com, you will need to load
# the following ldif entry/entries too.
# Uncomment out the following, if required.
#dn: dc=us,dc=subarashii,dc=com
#orclversion: 90400
#orclsubscriberfullname: us
#objectclass: domain
#objectclass: top
#objectclass: orclSubscriber
#dc: us

#cn: EUSDBGROUP
#memberurl:ldap:///dc=subarashii,dc=com??sub?(&(objectclass=orclService)(objectclass=orclDBServer))
#objectclass:groupofuniquenames
#objectclass:groupofurls
#objectclass:topDid you ever get your questions answered about the realmRoot.ldif file? Did you manage to configure a successful integration of OVD with EUS? I am battling with trying to get Oracle Virtual Directory integrated with Enterprise User Security, but every step I take in Chapter 7 of the OVD manual fails in some way, and the instructions are often vague. I am not sure how to modify the realmRoot.ldif file. Is there any improved documentation on this? I have logged a Service Request, but not getting any help. Any resources or documentation you know of that provides better guidance would be much appreciated. I am way behind my schedule now and this is a very frustrating exercise.
Thanks. -
Problem register Oracle Virtual Directory to WebLogic - urgent ... pls help
Hi,
I'm a new to Oracle product and would like to install and run Oracle Virtual Directory for the following purpose:
Using LDAP client that connects to OVD and to issue ldapsearch command line based on the attrbiutes and filters of each one of the two Directories behind the OVD..
|-- Tivoli LDAP directory
LDAP client -> OVD ---|
|-- MS AD
I have downloaded the identity management package 11g and install only the OVD on Windows 2003 standard machine.
I then realized that I have to install the WebLogic package to have WEB UI to the OVD admin.
So I downloaded the WebLogic 10.3.1.0 package and install it.
I followed the installation instructions of
'Installing and Configuring Only Oracle Virtual Directory Without a WebLogic Administration Domain' at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/install.1111/e12002/ovd.htm#CIHFFAFH
and complete the installation.
Notice that the OVD and the WeblOgic SW are installed on the same Windows machine.
After that I had to register Oracle Virtual Directory with the WebLogic Administration Server.
Running the command-line I got the following error:
Deploying NonJ2EEManagement Application...Done
Command failed: Exception while registering the instance
Details are logged in C:\....\provision.log
opmnctl registerintance: failed

Any thoughts ?Hi,
I am also facing the same problem. I have oracle internet directory 11.1.1 installed without domain. I then installed weblogic 32bit exe on same windows server.
while registering getting the same error. I think it is because of bit compatibility. OID is 64bit and weblogic is 32bit. Not sure.

Oracle Virtual Directory - Local Store Adapter Creation
Hi All,
I had an Oracle Virtual Directory Server integrated with three different Active Directory Server.
Active Directory1: ou=group1,dc=company,dc=com
Active Directory2: ou=group2,dc=company,dc=com
Active Directory3: ou=group3,dc=company,dc=com
I had created three different LDAP Adapter for three Active Directory servers.
LDAP Adapter_AD1 : ou=group1,dc=company,dc=com
LDAP Adapter_AD2 : ou=group2,dc=company,dc=com
LDAP Adapter_AD3 : ou=group3,dc=company,dc=com
Now i had created a Local Store Adapter for all the three Adapters. During creation it is fine. Doesn't throwed any exception. But when i see the data from the Browser window, I was not able to navigate and check the data.
Even Oracle Access Manager is not able to bind with user credentials.
Solution needed very urgently. Please help
Thanks in Advance,
Sandeep DHi Saggu,
You are absolutely right. It's working fine now. I need to know one more like performance.
If i have three adapters in the adapter configuration, and 21 adapters in the adapter configuration.
Which kind of configuration will help to improve the performance?
Two Scenarios:
1. Three Adapters
2. 21 Adapters.
Explanation:
1. Adapters are mapped at Root DN level.
Example: dc=company,dc=groups,dc=com
2. Adapters are mapped to interior level.
Example: ou=Firstgroup,o=initialemp,dc=company,dc=group,dc=com
Based on the above two scenarios which mapping is the best regarding the performance level.
Can you please suggest me on this performance issue.
Thanks in Advance,

Oracle Virtual Directory 10.1.4.0.1 installation on SUSE SLES10
I am attempting to install Oracle Virtual Directory version 10.1.4.0.1 on a brand new SUSE SLES10 Linux server. The installation fails due to missing libraries. This is true whether using the GUI or the console installation. The same set of binaries installs fine on a SLES8 and a SLES9 server.
The OVD 10.1.4.0.1 release notes and certification guide indicate that SLES10 is a supported platform. However, I cannot get the installer to work.
Following is the output and the error messages generated by the installer:

glibc-locale-2.4-31.2
Does anybody know why this is failing? Thanks in advance for your help.Here is the reply that I received from Oracle Support. The proposed workaround worked in my case. I am posting it here so that it may help others.
Workaround
===========
1.) cp ovid1014.bin ovid1014.bin.bak
2.) cat ovid1014.bin.bak | sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > ovid1014.bin
3) run the modified installer: ./ovid1014.bin

Setting adapter Ldap in Oracle Virtual Directory
I'm setting up a new adapter in Oracle Virtual Directory for a OpenLDAP, something curious happens does not enable me finish the button, another detail is when I click on SSL I get the following message:
could not load certificate chain: java.lang.exception: Could not retrieve certificateAfter inspecting the OVD's RootDSE, I noticed that it does not support LDAPv3 controls. There is no supportedControl attribute present in RootDSE even if the Persistent Search Control flag is enabled from OVM.
Is there any way to point to the backend SunOne server's RootDSE through OVD so the SunOne's persistent search control could be used?
Thanks,

Problem while creating an OU from LDAP client, in Oracle Virtual Directory
Hi,
1. I have created a Custom Adapter with root (i.e. dc=mycompany,dc=co,dc=in)
2. Trying to create an "OU" under these above root (i.e. ou=test,dc=mycompany,dc=co,dc=in) using the LDAP client.
I have given following inputs for the second step:
Dn: ou=test,dc=mycompany,dc=co,dc=in
ou=test
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalunit
When I try to perform second step with above inputs its gives following error
"LDAP Error 32 : No Such Object"
Same inputs is valid for SunONE directory server.
Is the above approach is valid for Oracle Virtual Directory?
Does any one faced same problem before?
Regards,
HardewYou're going to have to install the Oracle client on the Win2000 box before doing anything else. Once you've done that, simply add a TNS name that points to the database on the Solaris box (the Net8 Configuration Assistant) can walk you through this. Finally, you'll go to the ODBC Data Source Administrator and create a new DSN.
Note that if you install the latest ODBC driver, the 'service name' text box that you have to fill in when you actually create the DSN has been replaced with a combo box, which should make the process a little easier.

Oracle Single Sign on Integration with Oracle EBS r12
Hello,
I am working on a project to integrate Oracle Single Sign On on Oracle r12. There is plenty of information available on Oracle Support but few inter-mixing and confusing terminology keeps popping up and I do not understand how all pieces together work. I am new to Oracle Single Sign On.
Here are few basic questions.
1. What is the difference between Oracle Internet Directory, Oracle Virtual Directory and Oracle Active Directory
2. Are the terms Identity Management and Oracle Single Sign On interchangeable? What is the difference between two?
3. What is Oracle Access manager and how different that is from Identity Management?
4. What is Oracle HTTP Server 11g webgate and how different that is from a normal traditional Oracle HTTP Server?
5. What is Oracle EBS Accessgate? Why do I need it? On metalink some notes do not indicate use of Accessgate at all for OSSO deployment while some makes it look like required.And advise on above will help.
Thank you
DarshHi Darsh,
1. Oracle Internet Directory (OID) is Oracle LDAP storage solution (more here), Oracle Virtual Directory is Oracle solution that can read identity data (and filter it (mask it) based on policies) from Oracle/non-Oracle databases, Oracle/non-Oracle Directories and files and provide the user profiles as LDAP view (more here), There is nothing called Oracle Active Directory, you must be referring to Microsoft Active Directory.
2. No, Oracle Single Sign On (OSSO) is a feature in iAS (its obsolete), Identity Management is wide umbrella of solutions and concepts.
3. Oracle Access Manager is one component of Oracle Identity and Access Management suite of products.
4. Webgate is Oracle access Manager agent that is installed on a webtier, it intercepts the web requests and collect the credentails, send them to Oracle Access Manager for security evaluation (decide what Authentication is needed, verify collect credentials, etc), webgate then enforce the Access Manager decision.
5. Oracle EBS AccessGate is a java application that has the same use of OAM Webgate (it is OAM agent) but specific to E Business suite, EBS Access Gate is the new solution replacing OSSO agents, OAM is replacing OSSO server component, EBS and OSSO customers can use OAM server with OSSO agents, or with EBS AccessGate.
HTH.

Installing Oracle Virtual Directory Manager client on Solaris 10
Hi,
While installing Oracle Virtual Directory Client on solaris 10, I am getting
"ovidm1014.bin : /tmp/install.dir.<number>/linux/resource/jre/bin/java: cannot execute" error while initiating the installer.
Can someone look into the message and advice me in overcoming the issue as we are held up on this for three days?
Earliest reply is favoured
ThanksHi,
Thanks once again for reply!!
If you already installed Oracle Virtual Directory Manager on Sun SPARC, can you brief us pre-requisite setting and installation steps, so that we can follow the same.
Because, we are getting error in the initialization of installation process itself. So, I think there must be some configuration settings to be made.
We already raised SR (Service Request) with Oracle, bu there is no reply from their side till now.
I am waiting for your reply ASAP
