BUSINESS RULES WITH SYNCHRONOUS BPEL PROCESS

Hi
I want to know whether i can use Business Rules with Synchronous BPEL process. Actually i developed an example synchronous BPEL process but while invoking decision service it generated an error stating RECEIVE TIMEOUT fault. But when i created identical process in ASYNCHRONOUS mode it went through without any error.
Thanks and Regards
Vishnu

Just in case, here is some documentation about changing the syncMaxWaitTime

Business Rule Hit by BPEL Process

(newbie question) I'm using JDeveloper 10 and am getting a "Build Failed" error when trying to deploy my BPEL project that invokes a business rule.
My environment is ok deploying projects without a business rule. I seemed to have no problems creating the business rule.
I'm able to see the "Build Failed" error from the "Ant" tab, but I'm trying to find the log file that might give me the root cause of the problem. How do you figure out the cause of this error?
Thanks!

Hi,
The output of the ant is on the most right tab of the log panel.
It should give you more info about the failure.

Problem with calling AQ JMS Adapter with Asynchronous BPEL Process

I have a AQ JMS Adapter and i'm invoking the adapter in my BPEL process.
I'm passing an xml as payload to AQ JMS adapter. When i post the xml in the BPEL Control, i'm getting the follwoing message:
"Cannot find the specified instance". I have tried 3-4 times but getting same message all the time.
However, i'm able to publish xml to JMS Topic with synchronous BPEL process.
I want to use asynchronous BPLE process.
Please let me know if there is a way to overcome this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Thanx in Advance.

I am experiencing the exact same issue while configuring for Tibco EMS!!!
I have also checked the oc4j-xa.xml file etc and I am also unable to find any guidance on the steps required from XML config files through to adapter wizard entries!

Unable to integarte Oracle business rules with BPEL

hi'
I am unable to integrate Business rules with BPEL, I am using JDeveloper to do this.
I have successfully made a connection to rule repository and using decision service in synchronous BPEL process.
In the decision service wizard step 1 of 2
1.) Selected 'Execute Ruleset' in Invocation pattern
2.) Selected rules set which I have cretead before.
the problem is coming when nothing is geting displayed in the
window below for Fact name, assert name, watch fact.
please help me why Fact name, assert name, watch fact are not coming.
thanks
Yatan

Thanks Anirudh,
Do I need to make some changes in the java classes or in the XSD file which I am importing while creating new BPEL process
I am importing the same XSD file in input and output, actually I am updating the database in the BPEL process so I am taking the
input from the payload and updating the DB.
Do I need to make two different <complexType name="updatingDB"> and <complexType name="businessrules">in the XSD
if you have some example which shows the Integration of BPEL and Business rules
with Java facts please share it with me.
thanks
Yatan

Unable to get Fault in reply from Synchronous BPEL Process

Hi All,
I am using a synchronous BPEL process which always throws a fault. The structure of this fault message is added to <bpel_process_name>.xsd.
For WSDL faults I have added the following in .wsdl file:
</wsdl:message>
<wsdl:message name="BusinessFault">
<wsdl:part name="payload" element="client:faultarea"/>
</wsdl:message>
<wsdl:portType name="FaultBPELProcess">
<wsdl:operation name="process">
<wsdl:input message="client:FaultBPELProcessRequestMessage"/>
<wsdl:output message="client:FaultBPELProcessResponseMessage"/>
<wsdl:fault message="client:BusinessFault" name="BusinessFault" />
</wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:portType>
Now when I invoke this BPEL process, the fault is thrown and caught by the catch block at main scope. this catch assigns some values to the fault message and returns it back to the calling party.
Fault QName is defined in the reply activity of catch block.
On testing it, the reply never comes back and I can see the following error message in the logs:

Reply component on synchronous BPEL process in Oracle SOA

if there any possibility for returning the result to the client in the middle of a synchronous BPEL process?
I put the reply component in the middle of BPEL process, but the client still will wait for the whole process completed. I am wondering how the reply mechanism works in BPEL for synchronous.

Hi,
You should build your process in a way that the reply activity should be in the end.
Meaning, add the relevant activities - scopes, catch (fault handling - system & business), switch etc...
If, from some reason, you don't want to continue with the process,at any stage then go to the end.

Synchronous BPEL process calling apache soap 2.3.1 service(s) on jboss

I have a problem that is quite frustratiing. I have a very simple synchronous BPEL process and I am trying to invoke some legacy services we have deployed using Apache soap 2.3.1 running on jboss. The process executes, the service executes, but the return value is not received by the BPEL process.
I used obtunnel to capture the data flow and everything seems fine from that perspective. The problem is, if you watch the monitor, the status says active, but the BPEL process returns immediately. It does not wait for the response, so the return value winds up being null. I have tried this numerous times with several services and the result is always the same. This is a serious problem for us. Any suggestions/insight would be very much appreciated.
Ina case there are any doubts as to whether or not it is actually a synchronous process, from the BPEL code:

Below is an example from obtunnel:

Upgrade Business rules with Calc Manager

Hello Gurus,
Recently performed an upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 by replicating the Database to a new database machine.
I had Business rules in 11.1.1.3 and did not perform any steps to migrate the rules to Calculation manager in 11.1.2.2
The doubt I have is,
1. Are the business rules automatically upgraded when performing upgrade by EPM system configurator (since the database is replicated)
2. If so, how do I see the business rules in 11.1.2.2 environment? How can I use migrate feature option.
Thanks
HyperionEPM.

From 11.1.2.2 documentation:
Upgrade Wizard
If your application used Oracle Hyperion Business Rules, the Upgrade Wizard automatically converts Business Rules business rules to Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. Release 11.1.2.2 supports onlyBusiness Rules business rules as the calculation module.
Notes:
•Classic application administration is now called Oracle Hyperion Planning application administration (versus Oracle Hyperion EPM Architect application administration).
•The Upgrade Wizard automatically upgrades applications having Oracle Hyperion Business Rules business rules, converting them to Calculation Manager business rules. However, the Upgrade Wizard does not automatically convert Release 11.1.2.1 applications having Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager business rules. For those upgrade instructions, see the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
Business Rules Maintenance Release and Upgrade Installation PrerequisitesIf you are using Business Rules, you must migrate to Calculation Manager rules in Release 11.1.2.2. Before migrating business rules, you must perform prerequisite tasks. Note that these tasks are required if you are applying the maintenance release or if you are upgrading.
To prepare to migrate Business Rules, perform the following tasks in your current Business Rules environment before installing Release 11.1.2.2:
1.in Business Rules, within the Rule Editor, remove the associated outline (that is, the design time location) from each business rule. After you do this, the Associated Outline drop-down list should display the text, Select Outline.
2.On the Locations tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has a valid launch location, which must be an absolute location. Although “All Locations” is valid in Business Rules, when you migrate business rules, you must provide the details of a specific launch location (that is, the application type---Planning or Essbase, the server name, the application name, and the database or plan type). If you want a business rule to be valid for multiple launch locations, you must provide the details for each location. The locations must be in different applications; you cannot migrate the same business rule to different plan types in the same application within Calculation Manager.
If the rule is a part of a sequence, then the launch location of the rule within the sequence must be one of the launch locations listed in the Locations tab of the rule.
3.On the Access Privileges tab of the Rule Editor, ensure that each business rule has security defined for a specific location or locations and not “All Locations.” If multiple locations are defined for a business rule on its Locations tab, you must add security for each location individually.
4.Do not modify rules in Calculation Manager until migration is completed.
5.If you are using Business Rules with Planning, as a precaution, create a backup of the rules: Use Administration Services to export the rules to XML in Business Rules format. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format. EPM System Configurator exports the rules during database configuration for use during application upgrade.
6.If you are an Essbase-only Business Rules user, you must export business rules. To export the Essbase rule from Business Rules:
a.From Administration Services Console, right-click the Business Rules node and select Export.
b.Export the rules in Business Rules format and then select all of the Essbase rules in the repository. If you are upgrading from 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.4, also export the rules to Calculation Manager format.
c.Specify the location to save the XML file, and then click OK. If you are upgrading, the location should be a shared drive that is accessible from the upgraded environment.
Make a note of the location. You import the file later in the process.
Migrating Business Rules to Calculation Manager for use with Planning
If you applied the maintenance release to move from Planning Release 11.1.2.0 or 11.1.2.1 to Release 11.1.2.2, and you were using Business Rules rules, you must migrate the rules to Calculation Manager rules.
Before you migrate, ensure that user directories and native users with the same SID are available when you upgrade Shared Services.
Ensure that the Planning applications are upgraded to the current release and are available in Calculation Manager under SYSTEM View.
To migrate Business Rules rules to Calculation Manager rules:
1.In Calculation Manager, select the migrated Planning application, and then select Migrate.
The data that was exported during database configuration with EPM System Configurator is imported to Calculation Manager.
2.Repeat for each Planning application.
3.Deploy the rules from Calculation Manager to Planning. See the Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager Designer's Guide.
After migrating business rules and rules security, if any of the rules had multiple launch locations and you migrated to more than one location, Calculation Manager creates a rule for the first migration, and shortcuts for all subsequent migrations. If the rule had rule-level variables, for the shortcuts that are created in the application in the new environment , its variables are moved to the Plan level. In this scenario, test rules in your environment to ensure that they work as expected.
If you still have problems, raise an SR and we can get on a call to figure out why the rules are not coming over.

Associate Business Rules with Workflow

Hi All,
We have a planning application, and forms are having some business rules.
Now our requirement is, when a user promote his cost center to another user, he should not have the access the Business Rules for that cost center.
so, is there any way that we can associate business rules with workflow?
Thanks in Advance,
Edited by: user12865804 on Oct 4, 2010 2:26 AM

Ya that will be a tricky one.
The only general comment is to build this into your process.
So you will give everyone a window to add To Be Hires during 1 or 2 week period. Then you block everyone and remove the ability to launch the script. Then managers review. So this becomes disconnected from "workflow" the tool inside of Planning.
You could build something but this would be way outside the out of the box process and I wouldn't want to go there personally. You would move the calc into a maxl script and build in code to validate against the workflow tables to see if the calc will work or not. This would require all sort of validate scripting and error handling and would require bring in some experts probably. The only other scenario is to troll the forums and maybe find someone how built something like this and get them to share their code.
In principal what you want sounds obvious and make sense to be in the tool.

Can not run the Business rules with Hyperion Business Rules Desinger

I created a business rules with Business Rules Designer,and validate is ok, but when I run it, pop a blank window withtitle "Run Error", how to solve it ? Thanks

I would export the rule to essbase and test it there. I should run and the log will tell you something. I would also look at the business rules log to see what it says.

When to use Synchronous BPEL process.....??

I know the difference between Asynchronous and Synchronous BPEL process... BUt can any body tell me exactly when to use synchronous BPLE process... it will be great if anybody can give me some example..??

If caller needs to receive output from processing immediately then use sync.
For instance give me get customer details and display immediately on screen
If processing is taking longer time more than fewl seconds use async
Example:
Submit order for processing

Synchronous BPEL processes and dehydration

Hi all,
I am confused about dehydration behaviour of synchronous BPEL processes.
The BPEL Developer's Guide says:
"Dehydration enables the states of long-running processes to be automatically maintained in a database and correlation of asynchronous messages"
IMHO this means that dehydration is applied to asynchronous BPEL processes only - not to synchronous processes.
On the other hand I found a forum entry Re: dehydration ï¼ saying the following:
"Dehydration can optionally be disabled for synchronous flows"
which means that by default synchronous processes will be dehydrated(?).
Can anyone clarify the dehydration behaviour and configuration of synchronous BPEL processes?
Thanks in advance
Ingo

Hi Ingo,
The BPEL Developer's Guide says:
"Dehydration enables the states of long-running processes to be automatically maintained in a database and correlation of asynchronous messages"
This is true, as well as adding a checkpoint() in the Java Embedding Activity will force hydration.

Transaction Error In Synchronous BPEL Process

Hi All,
The Bpel Component makes a synchronous call to webservice , at few occurences response from
webservice delays to 50 secs .
The default time out of Synchronous Bpel Process is 45 secs, so when response from webservice takes more than 45 secs, the expected behaviour of BPEL
component should get faulted and control should go to catch all block
Issue
But instead, the Invoke activity in BPEL component gets rolled back, and control did not go to catch all block and complete instance goes into running state.
And after 50 secs, once webservice response back , a new instances gets automitically created .
Can anyone, Please help me to resolve the issue, i do not want the instances to go into running state .

What I would do is, have the timeout settings as follows.
syncMaxWaitTime < EJB Timeout < JTA timeout
Then, as Vijay pointed in "http://technology.amis.nl/2011/11/18/timeouts-in-oracle-soa-suite-11g/" link, you should add the httpConnTimeout property and httpReadTimeout property to be set less than syncMaxWaitTimeout, so that those timeout will kick in before the syncMaxWaitTime and throw the exception and you can catch it in the catchall block.

Repeat executed of synchronous bpel process

Repeat call in synchronous bpel process
The BPEL PM Server Version is as follows:
Oracle BPEL Server 版本 10.1.3.1.0
构建: 0
构建时间: Mon Oct 09 08:44:49 PDT 2006
构建类型: release
源标记: PCBPEL_10.1.3.1.0_GENERIC_061009.0802
When I run a synchronous bpel process which may run about 4 hours,the process was executed twice .
But when I design this process using asynchronous method, it does not happen.
Does anyone encounter this case and how it was resolved?
Or this is a bug of Oracle BPEL Server ?
Thanks for your answer.

Fault error framework for synchronous Bpel process

Hi all,
Do fault policies work for synchronous Bpel processes? I am using a synchronous bpel process which invokes JMS service. I have used fault policies and bindings for this , when the instance fails due to binding fault the instance gets timed out and it neither goes to catch block nor fault policies.Is it normal behaviour or am i doing wrong anywhere. please help
Regards
Raju.

Hello Raju,
yes fault policies absolutely work for sync Bpel processes, please check if you have defined the Binding fault in your fault policy and also in your bindings.
if you have defined them in your policies then the control will jump to the policies first do the respective action defined.
so do check again...
Good luck..
vny.
