BPM Composer Login issue

Hi All,
I recently deployed SOASuit11g + BPM11g. When i tried to login to the BMP Composer i can see only Help tab. I did try login as the weblogic admin user but no luck. Is there any security configuration i need to do after installing BPM. Also i see an error in my managed server console as follows.
Not sure what this means....

I fixed this in my environment by doing the following:
in Enterprise Manager use the MBean Browser to navigate to Application Defined MBeans->oracle.as.soainfra.config->[ server]->SoaInfraConfig->soa-infra. Then changing the value of 'ServerURL' to the IP address of the server instead of localhost

When Searched in Oracle Support Here is the information that they specified. But This is also not working.
Service error.
Internal Error; Service error occurs in IdentityService in method lookupUser.
Refer to the log file that is configured for oracle.soa.services.identity for more details on this error and contact Oracle Support Services
at oracle.bpel.services.identity.client.AbstractIdentityServiceClient.lookupUser(AbstractIdentityServiceClient.java:195)Cannot log in to workspace( BPM 11g).
Fix
One of the reasons this issue might happen is when the application (in this case the Workspace) was not able to connect to the Identity services.
And the cause of bug was network configuration issues which prevented connection to IdentityService SOAP endpoint using the configured server hostname.
So to overcome this issue, set the ServerURL property in the soa-infra config mBean to http://127.0.0.1
This should resolve the issue.
An alternative option is to use any other valid server IP address / port.
In future the bug fix will have log messages which will post warnings in the logs if the host name used in the URL is not resolved.
How to set the MBean:
1. Login to the em console
2. Right click on soa-infra
3. Goto Administration ->SystemMBean Browser
4. Goto Application Defined MBeans
5. Find Oracle.as.soainfra.config ->Expand "Server: <your server name>"
6. Goto SoaInfraConfig -> click on soa-infra
7. Find the Property ServerURL, enter value as http://127.0.0.1
8. Click on Apply

Edited by: rajMS on Jan 24, 2013 4:18 PM

This is related to the authentication providers you have configured in WebLogic. Check that the providers are configured property for whatever identity store you need to use - integrated WebLogic, OID, AD, etc. - and that they are in the correct order.

BPM Composer not show login screen in SOA VM machine for Oracle VirtualBox

Installed Oracle Virtual Box (4.2.4) and installed the SOA_BPM domain appliance (using SOA & BPM Development VM) - not a problem.
When attmpt to access http://localhost:7001/bpm/composer - simply get a blank screen - nothing on it.
When attempt to access bpm/workspace - no problem - get a login screen.
Help - what is happening, how do I get a login screen for http://localhost:7001/bpm/composer
Thanks - Casey

Hi,
I'm not sure how the domain is organised in that vm, but you have to make sure you are using the port-number of the soa_server, not the AdminServer.
Hope this helps...
Cheers,

BPM Composer and workspace login using OID

I have configured my weblogic to use OID for user and roles management. I am able to login as me when I access weblogic console and em (I am a member of administrator group). When I tried to login to BPM Composer and workspace, I have to login as weblogic user (the user from weblogic embedded ldap from my install). How to configure the BPM composer and workspace to use OID that I've configured in WLS?
Thanks.

Never mind. I solved this problem. Just need to ensure all the authenticator control flag set to SUFFICIENT.

BPM composer - issue project

Hi Experts,
We have problems with create projects in BPM composer. Our configuration is :

     SOA Suite 11.1.1.7 - Binaries
Server Managed
     weblogic Server 10.3.6.4 - Binaries
     SOA Suite 11.1.1.7 - Binaries
Domain configuration is Admin Server in Server Admin and soa_server1 in Managed Server.
I can create project in BPM composer and also publish in order to works with jdeveloper (jstudio)
the problem is that when restart Managed Server, all the projects gone, we can't see any projects created previously.
Can anyone help us ?
Regards

You need to put policies and credentials in a LDAP or DB.

BPM composer URL

Hi,
Whenever I hit the following URL from remote or same machine where the servers are installed
http://ipaddress:8001/bpm/workspace
In the browser it becomes
http://localhost:8001/bpm/workspace
and due to this i am unable to connect to BPM workspace from remote machines connected in LAN.
Also, while accessing em and weblogic console from remote machine or from same machine where the servers are installed
http://ipaddress:8001/bpm/workspace
doesn't change it remains the same after hitting and i am able to see console as well as em.
This issue is with SOA composer, worklistapp and BPM workspace & BPM composer.
Regards,
Nitin

The answer couldn't help us much. I will give you the steps we have followed in detail
We have created a sample customizable BPEL process by selecting a Customizable checkbox in Jdev.
Then,The sample BPEL process is deployed to SOA server from JDeveloper. We could see the deployed BPM process in EM console.
Also the MDS repositories required for customization too are present in EM.
Then We tried accessing the BPM Composer to do some customization on the sample BPEL process deployed. We are able to login to the BPM composer using "weblogic" user.
But the composer displays only the welcome page. There are no other links enabled.
Please let us know How to make a BPEL process customizable using BPM composer.
Also there is an another SOA Composer. When this composer is mainly used?
There is another BPM Workspace console. But we could not login to this using "Weblogic" user though we are able to login in EM, SOA and BPM composer.
Why the login failed uisng "weblogic" user here?What for this console is used?

I am not able to login into the composer and workspace ,i try adding the users in the securityrelam but also this is not helping..
Please suggest a way to debugg and rectify this issue.
Thanks in advance for your help.

If you are using managed server (default), the URLs will be:
Oracle BPM Workspace .......... http://localhost:8001/bpm/workspace
Oracle Process Composer ....... http://localhost:8001/bpm/composer
That is port 8001 instead of 7001

Unable to save project to BPM MDS in BPM Composer 11.1.1.6.0 with user containing @ in username

I faced this bug in the environment of a customer but successfully reproduced it on the official pre-build VM provided by Oracle.
When logging into BPM Composer 11.1.1.6.0 with a user containing "@" in the username, I am unable to create new projects due to a BPM MDS storage error. It seems that a directory named after the username of the logged in user is created where his/her projects will be saved to. This directory path in MDS is not allowed to contain "@". (cf. [MDS-01158]) Therefore, saving/creating a new project (= saving its initial state to BPM MDS) fails (cf. [BPM-70818])
Error trace:
BPM-70801: Metadata operation failed Caused by: BPM-70800: An I/O error occurred Caused by: BPM-70800: An I/O error occurred Caused by: oracle.bpm.metadata.persistence.PersistenceException: BPM-70800: An I/O error occurred Caused by: BPM-70800: An I/O error occurred Caused by: BPM-70818: The path '/bpm/drafts/Test/[email protected]/projectMetadata.xml' is invalid. Cause: The path contained invalid characters. Action: Try to avoid using special characters in the path Caused by: MDS-01161: Reference "/bpm/drafts/Test/[email protected]/projectMetadata.xml" has an invalid character "@".
The problem is, that actually "@" is allowed as char in user names. This is even a quiet commonly used feature since complete e-mail-address are commonly used as usernames.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a new user with username "[email protected]" in WLS console.
Log on to BPM Composer with this user.
Create a new project with the wizard available from the "New project" button in the upper right.
Question:
Does anyone else face this problem and can provide a solution?
Can this issue be solved by customizing MDS configuration?
Does anyone know/has a idea for a (possible) workaround?
Regards

I've noticed similar issues when working with 12c Composer's PAM as the sharing mechanism.
If you can, bring your project up in Oracle BPM Studio and then export it as an .exp file. You should then be able to import it back into Composer.

Accesing to the BPM Composer Web Page - Error : CurrencyKey not preserved

Hi there,
I've recently installed the Soa Suite 11.1.1.4, and when i logged in th BPM Composer and I try to use any option of the web page, i can see in the log the next error :
]] Root cause of ServletException.
java.lang.AssertionError: CurrencyKey not preserved
at org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component.UIXCollection.encodeEnd(UIXCollection.java:531)
With this error i can't navigate inside the BPM Composer Web page, any idea about this problem?

The solution to this issue, is adding in the CMDLINE of the Register Service the next value -da:org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component.UIXCollection, with this option we disable the assertion of java, after that i can work with the BPM Composer Web Application

How to configure bpm composer and access the projects present in bpm mds re

To access the bpm composer I performed the below mentioned steps: - Installed the standalone weblogic server with soa server configured
- Invoked the bpm composer using the url : http://machine:soa_port/bpm/composer
- Used weblogic and weblogic1 as username and password.
Please let me know whether I am following the correct approach as I am not able to see any options in bpm composer like open project etc, the project menu appears but there are no projects visible.

The answer couldn't help us much. I will give you the steps we have followed in detail
We have created a sample customizable BPEL process by selecting a Customizable checkbox in Jdev.

There is another BPM Workspace console. But we could not login to this using "Weblogic" user though we are able to login in EM, SOA and BPM composer.
Why the login failed uisng "weblogic" user here?What for this console is used?

Suggested BPM Composer tutorials anyone?

I am having a bit of an issue with finding the learning tools I need. My office is starting with Oracle Middleware and with all the money such new technology costs, it has been decided to save money on training, that is to say... teach yourself. This does not work for me due to a cognitive disability, lets just say I am somewhat Autistic. I am keeping it generally as I do not believe I am the only person having issues with finding tutorials through Oracle (and the web at large) due to the pure massive amounts of tutorials, articles, forum posts etc. we need to search through. I am quickly overwhelmed and frustrated.
[private situation]
In my case, we were given a quick tutorial years ago to "Sell us" on the tools, then nothing. After waiting years for the technologies to be installed and running, I began re-learning what little I knew using JDeveloper. Then told only to use BPM Composer, then our installs failed and my project was dead for 3 months so I lost what I had learned and now am trying to recreate that knowledge train with changes in what we are using and a malfunctioning development area. A General mess in which to try to teach myself anything is what I am saying.
[The Issue]
The issue is this: There are so many way to use BPM, so many different technologies that work with it and 3rd part tools that at any one time different tutorials suggest different ways to do things and generally are based around a specific technology. Right now all I want is a simple tutorial on creating a BPM Process using a Web Service. For the life of me I cannot find one. I get pages of returns that do not really show me what I need, so hours of searching and reading just to find the current tutorial is not what I needed. Oracle originally sent us to the "Building Your First Process with Oracle BPM 11g" tutorial which failed for all of us way back when, now I can get further into it but is for JDeveloper. So I can transpose much of it into "Composer speak", but it is using ADF Forms when we need Web Forms and it is having you connect with data that is not web services based. Then there are those tutorials and videos that expect the student to have access to files that we do not if we just find it online.
[What I want]
Right now all I want to do is create a process that will take and languageID and PhraseID and return a greeting and what language it is from a web service I created. Once I have this and understand how the web service and process communicate, I can work in gateways etc until I have a test project that represents my actual project. Of course with no real training I am shooting in the dark and cannot even tell if my issues are my process or part of our continued installation issues. It just seems like it should not be this big of a deal to find training on connecting these two technologies.
[Question]
Can anyone here suggest any BPM Composer tutorials (JDeveloper may work too) that will explain to me or work me through creating a BPM Process that interacts with a web service?
Lastly I would just like to raise awareness that the whole structure of tutorials and training offered by Oracle is rather user unfriendly for people with cognitive issues. This is not meant negatively, I realize the amount of data Oracle offers, it is a big job making any form of useable structure from it. But maybe some thought could be put into other ways to make it easier for those of us with issues to find answers more easily. I appreciate what Oracle offers developers, but it is just a nightmare to find what I need when I need it.
Cheers, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Kyle

Hi Kyle,
I really understands your concern.With some limited feature with BPM composer it is best to start building BPM Process first from using Jdeveloper.
They we can move to web form which will give an more insight into BPM.
Please prepare to have some knowledge on ADF too. Its simple
To start with i would suggest below link:

11g BPM Composer on Solaris soooo slow

Hi guys,
We really want to use BPM Process Composer, so we installed SOA Suite 11.1.1.3 on a Solaris machine (Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440) with plenty of memory and cpu available. However it takes over 5 minutes just to login. We found by doing thread dumps that most of this time is spent processing the JSPs for the Composer app. We suspect Native IO libraries but the setup looks ok (LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc). We installed the same version of SOA Suite on a PC with linux and BPM Composer worked great.
Anyone else had similar experience with 11g?

just a wild guess: can you reverse lookup all involved IPs to their dns-names?
if not, make sure, you can.
of course you can also run strage/dtruss on the 'hanging' process to see what it is doing (or waiting for).

BPM Composer

Dear Legends,
I upgraded the soa suite to PS6. Everything is working fine but I'm not able to open BPM urls as foolows :
http://localhost:8001/BPM/composer/
http://localhost:8001/BPM/workspace/
I'm getting Error 404--Not Found.
Please help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in Advance.

Make sure you "Composer" enterprise application is up and running.
You can find this by logging into weblogic console and under deployments tab.
It is considered good etiquette to reward answerers with points (as "helpful" - 5 pts - or "correct" - 10pts).
Thanks,
