BPEL/OC4J Standalone w/OracleXE

I am new to Oracle application server and BPEL so I apologize in advance if this is an easy question or if it's already answered.
But Im trying to set up a developer environment using the BPEL/OC4J standalone installation (as_windows_x86_bpel_101200.exe) using OracleXE as the supporting database. Some of our needs preclude the use of the olite DB that comes with this installation so we are trying to use XE. On the surface we think it should work but we are having some difficulties. It could be the way we are installing or it could be it simply wont work.
If someone has been successful at configuring this way, I only would like to know that it is possible so I dont spend any more time on it.
Thanks!

Any help please with resolving the null pointer on all jsps launched that were created using the portlet item? any?

Which application server is bundled with BPEL PM standalone download. If it is iAS will it be Weblogic anytime soon.
thanks

Its certified for oc4j 10.1.2. If you are internal to oracle, then you can get the manual steps at bpel.us.oracle.com and if you are external, please send a mail to collaxa_support_us@oracle asking for the same.

Could any expert advise pls ?What's your BPEL version ? SOA Suite version ? Any major change prior ? I assume you are using OID. What's the version ?
You must provide more information .
Edited by: KikiThinkNice on 2010年3月2日下午5:17
Is your BPEL console still valid ?BPEL is not valid. My BPEL manager is 10.1.3.3 . I just install a MLR patch.
anythings go wrong ?

How Do You Deploy a War File to The OC4J Standalone ?

I have a .war file that contains example code and I would like to deploy it to my OC4J Standalone.
I tried putting the war file in the applications directory and adding a line in the server.xml file but I received the error:
Error instantiating application at file:/C:/OC4JStandAlone/pdk101202_oc4j_extended/j2ee/home/applications/displaytag-examples-1.1.war: Unable to find/read assembly info for C:\OC4JStandAlone\pdk101202_oc4j_extended\j2ee\home\applications\displaytag-examples-1.1 (META-INF/application.xml)
It appears it was expecting an .ear file instead of a .war file
Is there an easy way to deploy a .war file to the OC4J Standalone?
Thanks,

Please refer to the OC4J FAQ on :-
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/oc4j/1012/collateral/OC4J-FAQ-101202.pdf
Q 24 should have your answer.

The error was in the execution of OC4J embebbed. OC4J uses its own libraries for web services and xml.
You can deploy an application with JAX-WS 2.0 if you add this java option:
-Xbootclasspath/p:<dir_libs>\xml-apis.jar;<dir_libs>\xercesImpl.jar;<dir_libs>\xalan.jar;<dir_libs>\saaj.api.jar
And the jars of JAX-WS are added as libraries to the application.
With this solution you solve the problem: OC4J uses this libraries, not their owns, include the xml libraries.

OC4J Standalone Distribution - License needed?

Hi,
I'm using APEX 3.2 on a 10gR2 Database with an Oracle HTTP Server (Apache 1.3). In order to enable PDF generation within APEX, an OC4J standalone is needed according to PDF Printing in APEX:
[http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html#05]
Can someone confirm that OC4J standalone does not need to be licensed separately? According to every Apex documentation the "Apache FOP with the OC4J standalone" is the way to go if you don't want to spend extra money on Oracle Licenses. And I definitely do not need the whole Oracle Application Server.
What really disturbed me was the first sentence on the OC4J Standalone Distribution Web Page:
[http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/utilsoft.html]
All software on this page is to be used according to the development license unless you are a licensed Oracle Application Server customer. Oracle Application Server customers can use this software according to the terms and conditions of your Oracle Application Server license.
I'm not a licensed Oracle Application Server customer but I wan't to use the OC4J standalone in a production enviroment! Do I need to license OC4J standalone?
Regards,
Marco

hi %,
The official oracle reply:
Please find below additional information to OC4J licensing:
OC4J Standalone version can be downloaded for free from OTN but its usage is subject to the OTN Agreement.The OTN agreement is very restrictive and it is important that the partner and end user know of these restrictions.
There is a link to the OTN Agreement on the url provided:
+[http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/utilsoft.html |http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/utilsoft.html ]+
For example, the OTN program cannot be used for internal data processing or for any commercial or production purposes, or for any purpose except the development of a single prototype of your application.
For for any commercial or production purposes OC4J is part of Internet Application Server (Standard Standard One and Enterprise Editions) and WebLogic Suite. These programs would need to be licensed in order to use OC4J.
Unfortunately, I do not have an Oracle supported way to genereate PDF within APEX which does not cause any additional license costs.
cheers,
Marco

Can Jdeveloper TP4 deploy apps to OC4J standalone TP4

I tried to have JDeveloper TP4 deply my ADF web app to the latest OC4J standalone version but I get the following error:
Caused by: java.lang.InstantiationException: Import was not resolved for riscs.root:0.0.0: shared library "adf.oracle.domain" could not be found.
     at com.evermind.server.ApplicationStateRunning.initClassLoader(ApplicationStateRunning.java:1374)
     at com.evermind.server.ApplicationStateRunning.initializeApplication(ApplicationStateRunning.java:179)
     at com.evermind.server.Application.setConfig(Application.java:538)
Before I spend alot of time debugging is this currently supported or can I only use the OC4J shipped with JDeveloper?
Thanks.

The sad part about this thread is that we seem to be talking about completely separate products, like they are from different companies. I have not been given the secret decoder ring to determine which parts of the suite really work together or when the magic convergence will occur. From a client/customer perspective these are part of an Oracle suite of applications, and I can assure you that clients have spent significant amounts of money and have an expectation (which was sold to them) that that all parts of the suite work together "seamlessly".
I think everyone using TP releases understands and accepts a certain amount bugs and integration issues, however I have been working with 11G components for almost a year and I sometimes wonder if Oracle really understands the stress created on consultants when the "right-hand" does not seem to notice what the "left-hand" is doing.
Our project requires JSF/ADFFaces, Rules, XML, WebServices, ORM(Toplink/EclipseLink?), JEE5 Container, SVN version control integration at a minumum. It has been a monumental effort to create even prototypes to show our client progress toward the vision that was sold. We are continually being told that all will be good when all the products become production. This is a very big risk where failure is paid for by consulting not product.

Oc4j standalone 10.1.3.3 and service registry with ssl install help needed

Hello,
I'm trying to install service registry with oc4j standalone for testing and demoing but am having some difficulty with the ssl side of things.
I have setup a oc4j standalone 10.1.3.3 and configured the following ports:
default http port: 9991
ormi port: 9992
ormi ssl port: 9993
https port: 9994
I have configured oc4j standalone for SSl as per instructions by copying default-web-site.xml to secure-web-site.xml and added secure="true" to <web-site> tag and added <ssl-config keystore..../> as well. I've also modified server .xml and added <web-site path="./secure-web-site.xml" /> into the file.
I have then installed service registry as a publication (discovery) with http port pointing to 9991 and ssl enabled pointing to 9994 with oracle database.
I can load http://localhost:9991/ and also https://localhost:9994 and both secure and non-secure page loads fine for the oc4j webpage. I can load http://localhost:9991/registry/uddi/web/ page but when I click on any of the link on it tries to load https://localhost:9994/registry/uddi/web i get a http 404 not found error.
Tried googling and searching the forum for info, but I'm in need of a little help on where I went wrong.
Thanks

Hy frank, thanks for your reply:
We use a jdk shipped with jdeveloper for running OC4J;
"<JDev install dir>\jdk\bin\java.exe"
java -version says:
java version "1.5.0_06"

Difference between oc4j 10.1.3.1 and oc4j standalone 10.1.3.2

Hi ,
I have created an Application in OC4j standalone 10.1.3.2 which is working fine. Now i am trying to deploy the same application in oc4j 10.1.3.1 which is bundled with Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.x) and it deploys successfully.
But when i run the application it does allow some transaction with the Database(not all as i am able to login). are there any difference in bundled JAR files that might be causing this issue?
Any help is appreciated.

Update:
I compared all the JAR files from standalone OC4j with the ones bundled with OAS OC4J.
Only a few files differed.
I was able to isolate oc4j-internal.jar. If i copy oc4j-internal.jar of standalone OC4j to OAS Oc4j folder then my app seems to run fine.
What is the significance of this file? also, will my upgrading of this file affect other apps deployed earlier in the OAS server? Please advise.
Regards,
Swen

From what I can tell, it looks like my lookup was successful but the class name is __Proxy0, which is weird.
Here are a sample of my code:
the parameters are: url = 199.5.201.102:23791/loto User= admin password:admin id:loto
public GameDriverRemote getGameDriverFromURL(String id, String url,
String user, String password) {
try {
Context context = getInitialContext(url, user, password);
logger.debug("Context Lookup ID="+id);
Object obj = context.lookup(id);
if (obj!=null) {
logger.debug("Context Lookup found :"+id+" Class Name = "+obj.getClass().getName());
GameDriverHome gameDriverHome = (com.mot.vla.game.GameDriverHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj, com.mot.vla.game.GameDriverHome.class);
String tt= gameDriverHome.getClass().getName();
logger.debug("Done looking up home =>"+tt);
if (gameDriverHome != null) {
System.out.println("Game (" + id + ") Driver Home Interface Found");
logger.debug("Game (" + id + ") Driver Home Interface Found");
GameDriverRemote gameDriverRemote = (com.mot.vla.game.GameDriverRemote) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(gameDriverHome.create(), com.mot.vla.game.GameDriverRemote.class);
return gameDriverRemote;
catch (Exception e) {
logger.error("Game (" + id + ")Driver Loading Error", e);
return null;
static public Context getInitialContext(String url, String user,
String password) throws Exception {
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
// set the environment properties
System.out.println("Get Initial Context");
logger.debug("Get Initial Context");
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://"+url);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, user);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password);
env.put("dedicated.connection","true");
try {
// create an initial context using the above environment properties
return (new InitialContext(env));
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Context initializtion error");
e.printStackTrace();
logger.error("Context initializtion error", e);
return null;
any help will be appreciated

What is OC4J StandAlone?

Hey Techies,,,,
OC4J standalone is a distribution of Oracle Application Server product that contains just the J2EE and Web Services components. OC4J standalone is much smaller than the full Oracle Application Server product and is downloaded as a single zip file. It is executed as a single Java process.
OC4J standalone is J2EE 1.3 compatible and is able to be used in both development and small scale production environments. OC4J standalone provides its own inbuilt HTTP/S listener to allow clients to execute Web applications that it has deployed. Application deployment and server configuration of OC4J standalone is performed by the manual editing of a simple set of XML files.
For large scale enterprise deployments, the Oracle Application Server product is likely to be more suitable with its comprehensive feature set including Oracle HTTP Server, process monitoring and management capabilities, and its configuration and management console.
IF THERE IS ANYTHING TO BE ADDED PLEASE ADD...
Thanks-San

It may be too obvious:
- OC4J standalone is a full J2EE container.
- It runs as a java application and you need to start it from the command line like java -jar oc4j.jar
- From 10.1.3 it includes a management console.
- As every J2EE container OC4J can run a number of J2EE applications which include EJBs, Servlets, JSPs, JSF and WebServices.
- Nearly the same J2EE container is included in Application Server (AS) but as has a number of additional features like opmn which takes care of starting OC4J containers when needed, eg when it crashes.
- With AS you manage more then one OC4J container while with Standalone you usually run one OC4J from the command line.

Please advise.
Thank you.

Difference between OC4J Standalone & IIS for BI Presentation services

Hi experts,
i had this question in my mind for last couple of weeks and did not get good answer by self study.
my understanding with IIS & OC4J server is,
1.if BI Presentation services is setup to IIS Webserver, It is also using OC4J as application server, because IIS is just an HTTP Server where the presentation services also need an Application server which is OC4J for OBIEE. Is this true.
2.if the IIS Server is only HTTP Server, what is OC4J and standlone OC4J for OBIEE.
i think the difference between IIS and OC4J is ( true or false)
1. oc4j or oc4j Standalone is application server( contains OC4J Instance(J2EE) and HTTP Server)
2. oc4j itself has a an HTTP server which is used if we dont plan to deploy IIS Webserver.
3. IIS server is only HTTP which can be used in Production environments and will still use OC4j as application server.
MY question is how to configure IIS server and configuration files and oc4j if we plan to deploy a environment like this.
i followed OBIEE installtion documents and did not get a clear picture.
there is something called PLUG-IN's (iis plugin and j2ee plugin ) which is used if we deploying on IIS and OAS(WEBLOGIC)
this is is my understanding and Please Correct me if i am wrong
thanks
kumar
