CachedConnection property for MQ Inbound adapter

Hi All ,
In 10g, For an MQ adapter outbound connection if I set the property
cachedConnections='"false" it releases connection right after completing the unit of work, and connection is available to OC4J connection pool.
I want to know whether is this feature the same for MQ Inbound adapter connection?
Should I specify a cachedConnection="false" property in bpel.xml of the process using a MQ Inbound adapter connection? If yes, why?
Any help in this regard would be very helpful.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Nithya

Even if you could it would not be recommended as you are constantly polling the queues and accessing the cache is the fastest place to get the connection details. Something that is recommened of AQ anyway which I'm sure should apply for MQ is to have different connection pools for inbound and outbound queues as they have different requirements.
The cachedConnections property is designed to release connections so they can be freed up for other connection in the pool. What can happen if this is not set is that the connection pool maxes out and waits for the cached connections to be freed. This can take some time to occur.

Inbound adapter exception/error management

I was wandering is there any best practice for handling inbound adapter exceptions ? For example if I have inbound MQ-adapter and MQ-server is down how can I get some kind of exception catched from this? Only thing I've found out that it SOA Suite writes these exceptions to server log. Is the only way to catch these exception to poll the server log (using for example grep...)?
Thank you
Best Regards Tuomas

Any light / idea on the following issue ?
1. While reading from file, if a records errors out, the custom BPEL process is launched (as specified in rejectedMessageHandlers property). In such instance, the previously read valid records are processed but remaining records are marked as errored out. Our requirement is to make entire record set as invalid and would like to perform rollback of entire process. Even, if we do not configure rejectedMessageHandlers, the behavior is that valid rows are processed with the rest of BPEL process and for Invalid rows, the records are rejected. Our requirement, is that, even if there is one invalid record, the entire set of record should NOT move ahead with the BPEL process
2. Whenever an error occurs during reading the records using File adapter, the associated data file is being deleted from the input directory and also NOT available in archive directory also. Note, in case of all valid record the file is available in archive directory

Inbound Adapter / 'Sink' failing for Content Server on Subscription Client

I am running into an issue in configuring the Outbound - Inbound Adapters for Connection Server / Subscription Client against Content Server. The details are below. Would sincerely appreciate if anyone can help with this.
I have installed a Oracle UCM setup together with two Content Server instances (Contribution instance and Live instance), a Connection Server and a Subscription Client - all within the same virtual machine on top of Windows XP SP2 OS and Oracle 10g Database.
I have further configured the Outbound Adapter on the Connection Server and the Inbound Adapter on the Subscription Client. All installation and configuration has been done following the step-by-step process from the relevant installation guides.
We have tested the connectivity between the Connection Server and the Subscription Client for a simple file-based content source and it works fine - i.e., files added to a directory registered as a source on connection server are retrieved and sent to the subscription client and received there successfully / dropped in the specified target client directory.
However, this transfer fails for the Content Server Outbound-Inbound Adapter connectivity. We have an Archive in Content Server registered as a "CNSArchive" and exporting successfully to the CNS Server. The registered outbound adapter is successfully able to receive these updates and are visible through the Connection Server
interface. The subscription client is also apparently able to receive these updates
correctly and writes them to the specified folder/directory on the client;
however fails to "batch load" these and reports a failure writing to the
Content Sink.
What we would like is for the ability to establish end-to-end connectivity between the contribution content server instance and the live content server using the connection server + outbound adapter on the sending end together with the subscription client + inbound adapter together on the receiving end. This is failing.
I have double checked the cns.oracle.config (connection server config), siclone.config (subscription client config), and the source content server's configuration (config.cfg), and all seems to be well. Not really sure therefore what is causing this.
Here is a snippet of the error trace that keeps showing up in the subscription client logs ...

CharacterSet Property for FTP adapter in SOA 10.1.3.5

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while setting a jca property for FTP adapter. The property I am setting is to sync Read files of UTF-8 type of characterSet. Hence in jca properties I am setting the following value:
<jca:operation
FileType="ascii"
CharacterSet="UTF-8"
LogicalDirectory="directory"
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.outbound.FTPReadInteractionSpec"
LogicalArchiveDirectory="FileArchiveDirectory"
DeleteFile="true"
FileName="fileName"
OpaqueSchema="true"
UseRemoteArchive="true">
I want this changes to be done since the FTP adapter is not able to read files with the file name having special characters of type UTF-8.
When I execute this I am getting the following error:
[ SynchRead_ptt::SynchRead(Empty,opaque) ] - WSIF JCA Execute of operation 'SynchRead' failed due to: Could not instantiate InteractionSpec oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.outbound.FTPReadInteractionSpec due to: Error while setting JCA WSDL Property.
Property setCharacterSet is not defined for oracle.tip.adapter.ftp.outbound.FTPReadInteractionSpec
Please verify the spelling of the property.
I am trying this in SOA 10.1.3.5. can you please provide me a solution for this issue.

Hi,
I am facing the same scenario.
FTP adapter is picking file as opq and sending as email attachment.But the adapter not able to resolve special characters like Á....In the received payload of the adapter Á is replaced by ?......
Can anyone please help me out or suggest a work around.Thanks in advance..

Adding custom Adapter information Parameters for Oracle Inbound Telephony

Hello,
I am implementing a custom adapter for Oracle Inbound telephony. I need to configure a few information parameters for my custom adapter. I am using the "Adapter Server Info <1-6>" fields on the Call Center html administration page (under the "Middleware" section). But I need to configure more than 6 parameters for my adapter. Does anyone know if we can add more "Adapter Server Info" fields?

You may explore using a BPEL process to set the so header for calling the web service instead of directly calling it from BPMN process.
Steps.
1)Create a BPEL process.
2)Select the checkbox "Expose as a SOAP service"
3)In the BPEL process, set the SOAP header parameters that are expected by the called web service.
Refer section
6.22.2 How to Send SOAP Headers in BPEL
of
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Developer’s Guide for Oracle SOA Suite
11g Release 1 (11.1.1.6.3)
E10224-15
4)Now in your BPM web service adapter , instead of calling the web service directly, call the web service endpoint of the newly created BPEL process.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

How to use Database adapter as inbound adapter without having polling strategies?

Hi All,
I have a requirement wherein I have to use Database adapter to retrieve the data for every half an hour from one(X app) database and update that data into another application(Y app) .That database adapter will be along with BPEL process.My Flow would be like this:
Database Adapter( In 'exposed services' section) ----->   BPEL (in 'Components') -----> Y app service( in 'External References' section)
My questions for each step are below
     1) I have to retrieve the data from database(x app database) for every half an hour.So I have to schedule my whole process such that it should execute for every half an hour.
Means I have to get whatever the data is updated in the last half an hour in that database.
      The database adapter should be inbound in SOA composite editor(in 'Exposed services' section).
But in order to have inbound adapter,we have select the 'Poll for New or Changed Records in a Table' option in turn we have to select one of polling operations below:
         Delete the Row(s) that were Read
Update a Field in the [Table_Name] Table (Logical Delete)
Update a Sequencing Table
Update an External Sequencing Table on a Different Database
Control Table Strategy
But the problem is I don't have any control on the database(X app database) ,So (I can't update any data on that table,because that table may not have a field or table to update the processed rows)I can't choose any of the above operations.
How can I achieve what I want that is to retrieve the data and schedule the process?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Heckler,
Thank you very much for your answer that I can proceed further somehow.
I still need to have some clarifications.
In order to have a process which retrieves the data (Inbound operation) and updates the data into other application, the data(from X app) should be the request(through DB adapter) of the BPEL process.
X app does not do anything to send.We have(the BPEL process) to receive the data (or) no event is triggered.
The flow :
Database Adapter( In 'exposed services' section to retrieve data) ----->   BPEL (in 'Components') -----> Y app service( in 'External References' section)
How can we ensure the data will be request to BPEL process(means it will be in 'exposed services' section in SOA composite editor) for every half an hour if we use pick activity and database adapter as first activity?
When we use ''Poll for New or Changed Records in a Table' ,then only adapter becomes inbound and comes into the 'exposed services' section.I can't use it as I don't have any control on the source table.
I have this confusion before starting the process.Please help me to clear out the doubts.
And this whole process should be executed automaticallly for every half an hour(means it creates instance for every half an hour) Once we build the BPEL process.
How to schedule it?
And where do I need to create control table ?You mean I have to use some different database where in I have to create the table?

Remove namespace alias for HTTP receiver adapter

hello all,
I have a scenario, IDOC->XML (HTTPS). Standard output of PI has ns0: as prefix for each xml tag (ns0 alias for namespace)
I want to remove the namespace alias while preserving the namespace in the output. So removing namespace reference in external definition is not a option.
Is there any way to use XMLAnonymizerBean for HTTP receiver adapter? What are other alternatives (java mapping)?
Thanks,
sachin

Thanks stefan, prateek.
Prateek: I checked this blog earlier. It talks about inbound processing. My scenario is outbound HTTP and I am not sure how I can use specific adapter service as mentioned in blog in outbound case as other scenarios are using standards adapter_plain service.
Stefan: I will try this approach.

Using Logical Directory property in Assign File Adapter BPEL

Hi,
I wanted to use The Logical Directory which I created while making File Adapter in a BPEL process in 11g, in an assign activity.
How it can be done?
Thanks in advance
Sharat

I have already created a binding property for Logical Directory in Composite.xml. The thing is I want to set it through em, and check inside BPEL whether it is null or not. Only after that the File Adapter should be invoked.
I wanted to avoid exception if the binding property is not set by the user.
The solution lies in the word "exception" itself, just put the "invoke" activity inside a scope and on that scope attach a catch activity with "Binding Exception". If the file adapter is not able to find the file path, it will raise the excetption and "catch" will catch and inside catch I am able to put any activity which can end the process gracefully.

How to split big xml-messages with file inbound adapter

Hello,
we have big xml-messages in our filesystem, which are processed by XI 3.0 (SP11). We are using the file inbound adapter. Now we want to split these big xml-message into some smaller messages.
Exist there a corresponding function to the "xml.recordsetsPerMessage" which is working with xml-files?
Thanks!
Regards
Stefan

Hi,
maybe you can split the message in the BPM
with 1:N mapping?
Process Integration (PI) & SOA Middleware
I don't think anythink like "recordsetsPerMessage" is possible for xml messages

Duplicate instance in EM for Oracle Apps Adapter

Hi,
In composite.xml , Oracle apps adapter is kept in Service end which listens to a queue.
During the time of Performance test , I could see multiple instance got generated in EM console for the same message.
The following oracle apps property property got included in compostie.xml
+<property name="adapter.aq.dequeue.threads" type="xs:string" many="false">1</property>+
+<property name="minimumDelayBetweenMessages">15000</property>+
+<property name="DequeueTimeOut" type="xs:integer" many="false" override="may">60</property>+
Please let me know, is there any other property , need to be included in either composite or server level , in order to stop the duplicate instance in EM console .

Then its expected behaviour, you need to make active-passive configuration on JCA adapters.
Ideally we use "clusterdid" setting to make active- passive configuration on JCA adapter.
<property name="clusterGroupId">ProcessClusterID</property>
The above properties i had set it for File/FTP adapter on composite.xml. This make sure only one node active at any given point of time.
Not sure wheather the same will be helpful or not. W'll update you shortly.
Thanks,
Vijay

JMS distrubuted topic and jms inbound adapter

Hi,
We are building a HA application using precise recovery using JMS. FOr that we want to create a distributed JMS Topic (ckustered JMS Topic). As we understand things, when a JMS subscriber subscribes to a distributed Topic it is actually wired to a sopecific server (a specific fisical JMS Topic). When this JMS server fails the connection is dropped and the JMS subscriber needs to reconnect.
1. Is our understanging correct?
2. If yes and we need to reconnect to the surviving JMS Topic, is there a way to "tell" the JMS Inbound adapter to do so? Is it done automatically by the adapter?
Thanks,

There are a few different things you should be considering when configuring JMS for precise recovery, so I'm afraid this is going to be a long response.
* The precise recovery feature may not work correctly in the case where JMS output messages are lost. Avoiding message loss in the case of a JMS failure involving topics requires the use of persistent messages and durable subscribers. This is true regardless of whether you're using Distributed Topics or a Topic hosted by a single server. So use of durable subscribers is highly recommended when using CEP precise recovery.
* The CEP JMS input adapter won't actually support durable subscriptions until the upcoming 11.1.1.6 (PS5) release. So if you want to use durable subscriptions to avoid problems with precise recovery in the case of JMS server failure you would need to be on this release of CEP (at least for production).
* If you're using the CEP JMS inbound adapter with a distributed topic and a non-durable subscription, you can configure the adapter destination-jndi-name with the logical name of the topic and if the topic member servicing a given consumer fails, the consumer will reconnect to a surviving topic member. This works because you're using a logical destination name (not a physical host name or IP address), so the adapter is able to determine the surviving servers associated with the logical topic and reconnect to one of them. However since you'd be using non-durable subscriptions in this case to achieve failover/reconnect, you can have the problem described above with message loss and precise recovery (non-durable subscribers/non-persistent messaging can lose messages during the actual failover/reconnect).
* Unfortunately, WLS doesn't support durable subscriptions to distributed topics using the logical destination name. When using distributed topics you can only create durable subscriptions on specific topic members, and since these are subscriptions to a specific physical member these subscribers won't failover to another topic member if the server hosting their subscription fails.
So given all of the above you can see that the use of distributed topics with CEP precise recovery may not provide the ideal level of HA (the ability to handle combinations of JMS and CEP failures). You might want to consider using a non-distributed (single server) topic with persistent messaging and durable subscriptions as an alternate approach for precise recovery. In this configuration JMS server failure would require restarting the failed server, but once the JMS server is restarted there should be no message loss and CEP precise recovery should work correctly.
If you're determined to use distributed topics you might want to try posting to the JMS forum to see if anyone there has ideas for other solutions. Just let them know that CEP in this case is essentially acting as a vanilla JMS client (not MDB based) that can't tolerate message loss:
WebLogic Server - JMS

Configuration Inbound adapter WITHSTRUCTURECONVERSION

I try to configure an inbound file adapter, but from the documentation and online help it is not clear to me how to use the specific parameters.
my input file looks like this:
LINE1_FIELD1;LINE1_FIELD2
LINE2_FIELD1;LINE2_FIELD2;LINE2_FIELD3
LINE3_FIELD1
LINE4_FIELD1;...LINE4_FIELD20
LINE4_FIELD1;...LINE4_FIELD20
LINEn_FIELD1;...LINEn_FIELD20
So, 3 header lines of different length and n-3 data lines (of identical layout).
How should I configure the inbound adapter, for params:
xml.recordsetStructure
xml.keyFieldName.
what I expect is the following XML
<Recordset>
<Line_1>
    <field-Line1A>FIELD1</field-Line1A>
    <field-Line1B>FIELD2</field-Line1B>
</Line_1>
<Line_2>
    <field-Line2A>FIELD1</field-Line2A>
    <field-Line2B>FIELD2</field-Line2B>
    <field-Line2C>FIELD2</field-Line2C>
</Line_2>
<Line_3>
    <field-Line1A>FIELD1</field-Line1A>
</Line_3>
followed by the Data Fields (I am not sure if this is in the same recordset or a different one, and how to get it there)
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.
