Can't patch JDeveloper with OPatch

Hello,
I need to install a patch on JDeveloper Integrated Weblogic and having problems with OPatch. I'm on Windows 7 OS.
I've downloaded OPatch utility and placed the folder in FMW\jdeveloper (FMW is where JDeveloper is installed).
Patch folder is copied to FMW/jdeveloper.
ORACLE_HOME environment variable is set to FMW\jdeveloper.
OPatch folder path is added to PATH: FMW\jdeveloper\OPatch
Running cmd:

Error when try to install CPU - Critical Patch Update with OPatch

Hello gurus,
I´m faccing with a problem... After I update the patch set to 10.2.0.4 and install the interim patches for Linux X86_64 now I´m trying to import/install the Oracle Critical Patch Update - Oracle CPU patch!!
I´m trying to import it with OPatch, and I already update this OPatch tool for the last version even before proceeding with installation of Oracle CPU!
I've tried to import it by two methods. The first I tried to apply as described in the relevant README file inside of CPU patch directory, and I used in this case the following command:
redhatsap:orajmd> unzip p9119226_10204_<platform>.zip
redhatsap:orajmd> cd 9119226
redhatsap:orajmd> opatch napply -skip_subset -skip_duplicate
opatch: Command not found
After that previous error, I tried again but now with other method that is described in note 839182 (Installing patches using OPatch) with the following command:
redhatsap:orajmd> cd 9119226
redhatsap:orajmd> $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch apply

Hello again Joe Bo... and all of others,
I´m with a doubt after installing the CPU patch, which is related to post-installation tasks. I´m in this momment install the SAP System and it was during this installation that sapinst asked me to install the database and all other activities after this installation that are related to the database, for example, the updating of database patches.
At README file in chapter 3.3.2 Post Installation Instructions is described the following:
After installing the patch, perform the following actions:
1.Load modified .sql files into the database, as explained in Section 3.3.2.1.
2.Recompile views in the database, if necessary, as explained in Section 3.3.2.2.
In this momment, as you certainly know, I still don´t have a database because the sap system isn´t yet totally installed (I´m in phase 8 of sapinst wizard).
I only have to do this "Post Installation Tasks" when I have a database, this database will be created after that phase 8 - so now I don´t need to perform the post steps... am I right?
Thanks in advance,
João Dimas - Portugal

How can I integrate JDeveloper with Rational Functional Tester?

Hi
My company has purchased the new released Oracle Soa Suite and also the IBM Rational Functional Tester software. Rational Functional Tester is integrated in the Eclipse IDE, but the Developement Department wants to use JDeveloper as the corporative IDE. ¿Is there anyway to integrate IBM Rational Functional Tester with JDeveloper as is done in Eclipse?. I don't want to do the testing work using the Functional Tester API but using a similar script recorder as the Eclipse IDE has integrated.

msr,
Probably best to start a new thread, but...
I have spent some time in the past few weeks to implement a continuous build system for a JDeveloper/ADF project, and as such have also needed to make some Ant scripts.
I will blog about this whole experience in the coming days, but I can offer some tips here:
1). JDevLibsForAnt extension (mentioned above) is a good one. I used it to create the Ant classpath definitions for all of the projects.
2). I believe there is also an extension available (via check for updates) that can be used to start JDeveloper (and probably compile/run deployment profiles) from Ant. I didn't use this, but it may be a quick way to get things done.
3. JDeveloper can generate a new Ant file for a project (right-click project and choose New...). It will do the clean/compile/copy (I believe, cannot remember which ones right now) targets, but it won't make JARs, WARs, or EARs. In order to make the EAR file for my deployment target, I simply built one using the deployment profile, exploded it, and mirrored my Ant script to do the same thing.
4). Get ahold of the ojc.jar and ojspc.jar so that you can use the Oracle Java Compiler and JSP pre-compiler Ant tasks.
Hope this helps a bit,
John

JDeveloper with PO

Can I use JDeveloper with PO ? Has anybody tried using it? If yes, any help will be appreciated. Thanx.
null

PO? Personal Oracle?
If so, the only real gotcha is that you have to either (a) make sure the listener is set up to receive TCP/IP connectoins, or (b) use JDBC/OCI to connect via Bequeath (The default TNSNAMES entry for this is BEQ-LOCAL)
The release notes has information on using JDK 1.2 and higher with native code, this is required for using JDBC/OCI since it is a type-1 JDBC driver.
Hope this helps,
Rob

Patch 7315332 - 10G Jdeveloper with OA Extension ARU for R12.1

Hi,
I would have a look at the JDeveloper with OA Extension ARU for R12.1 (cause we will upgrade to R12.1), just to see the features and try to open "old" projects created with the patch 6739235 (11i).
Do you know where I can download a trial version?
Thanks a lot,
Rosanna.

Rosanna,
Should be the same place you get the other patches - "My Oracle Support" - the site formerly known as Metalink.
You would have more luck getting appropriate answers on the OA Framework Forum as well.

Where can i find JDeveloper 9i with OAF

Hi,
i need JDeveloper with OAF.Could any one please suggest me the location where i can find it.
I searched through this forums, but most of the links are not working.
Thanks

I have a similar requirement to get hold of JDeveloper 9i. I have a situation where I have a toplink deployment descriptor file for a legacy application that cannot be upgraded to later versions of toplink. I need to be able to produce new mappings within that descriptor file, but I have no tooling available to do so since both 10g and 11i tools crash when attempting to process the file, even though it runs successfulle in OAS/OC4J 10g.
Please can you help? I particularly need the Toplink Workbench at 9i version (since the XML schema of the toplink deployment descriptor changed between 9i and 10g)

You cannot use Opatch for this.

11.2.0.3 Patch Bundle and opatch installation approach

Hi,
I have installed the below 11.2.0.3 (64 bit) products in my windows 2008 server
1. Oracle Grid Infrastructure for standalone server
2. Oracle database server software and created a standalone database with ASM in this home.
Now i need to apply Update 5 patch bundle and some bug fix patches.
Since there are 2 home in my server what is the right approach for applying the patch bundle and opatch ?
When i went through the patch bundle installation document i could see these 2 options
1. Patch Installation Instructions for Single Instance
2. Patch Installation Instructions for RAC
Since i have 2 homes (OraCrs11g_home1 & OracDb11g_home1 ) in my server i am not sure which patch installation option i should choose and proceed.
Can someone assist me ?
Thanks,
Ashok Kumar.G

no we have to prepare a test POC but we don't have Xterm so had to use silent mode.using VNC server is best option to install or upgrade databases/grid Infrastructure.
VNC server runs on the server and no fear of loosing network connection as in case of connecting thorugh putty.
also you can open GUI in VNC server without need of any xterm or xwindows .
So ask your SA to install VNC on your server and use it.

PROB. 1: When capturing HDV there is no picture in the Capt. Window and no sound. The window is plain black surrounded with a thin red line, which together with a red dot in the windows upper left corner indicates, that the capture should be taking place. But to the right after the text "Capture:", "Video" and "Audio" with there checkmarks, are only half lighted (not active). Only on the camera screen can I follow, what should be captured. With the mentioned indications, capture sometimes takes place, and sometimes not. This is first to see, when capturing is stopped.Very irritating and time wasting, as many of my clips has a length up to one hour (live music scenes). The Device Control in the Capt. Window is working o.k.. When capturing DV, everything is working all right from both the HDV and the DV camera.
PROB. 2: When capturing, "drop-outs", not existing on the tape, but generated in the capt. process, can occur - probably because some other small process takes place on the PC. F.ex. if one is looking around in PE8's Preferences Menu.
PROB. 3: The worst thing concerning these "drop-outs" + those eventual existing ones from the tape, is, that after a drop-out the picture/sound no longer are synchronized. From the drop-out and to the end of the clip, the sound is 11-12 frames behind the picture.
PROB. 4:   When editing/looking at a film in the Monitor Panel, the picture is not very fluent. It is hacking a bit, which makes it very difficult to adjust the lost synchronization (see prob. 3), which I did by moving just the Sound Bar 11 frames in the Timeline, precise from the spot the drop-out had been before it was cut out.
PROB. 5: When HDV is played back in the Monitor Panel, the sound is not to be heard the last 10-11 sec. of the last captured clip, although the sound signals are easily seen in the Timeline. After a restart of PE8, it is o.k.
PROB. 6: When HDV is played back in the Monitor Panel, it happens, that it suddenly stops unprovoked (none else activity has been done, just looking at the Monitor Panel).
PROB. 7: After having just done a few cuts + adding a bit of text + working with the synchronization (see prob. 4) in the two mentioned HDV projects, I burned a Blue-ray disc (BD-RE) of project I, and after adjusting a bit more on the synchronization, I burned one more, both without problems. Then I tried to burn HDV project II, but now the burning window showed several empty little windows (only Rescan/Copies/Status/Quality had text) - the text in "Status" was: "Invalid disc name". That happens both with and without a disc in the drive. Whit a disc in the drive, I tried to Rescan, but each time only to get a warning window saying:"[..\Src\DVD\MPEGEncoder.cpp-121]". By doing anything with "Quality", the same warning turns up. When "Continue" in the warning window is activated, PE8 goes down. I then tried to burn project I again, but although I succeeded burning 2 disces of that earlier, no success - same problem. And again the same with a new third little HDV project, I had made. If I choose to burn a DVD instead of a Blue-ray disc, everything works well.
PROB. 8: I'm now so frustrated, that I nearly see no other possibility than to give up, and feel depressed over wasted good money + not getting my projects done. But I still have a little hope, that someone out there are able to help me out - and if you try, please don't write in an all too complicated way, as English is not my language (Danish it is). Just to illustrate my difficulties, it took me nearly 8 hours to put this rapport together.

It's very difficult to answer several questions at once on a forum, Ulf. Is there any chance you could ask just one at a time?
As for your installation -- from your notes, it looks like you may have installed Premiere Elements on your E drive. If this is the case, it will not work. You must install the program on your C drive.
Also, if you can not see video of your capture, it is likely related to an out-of-date video driver. Have you gone to the ATI web site and downloaded the latest driver for your card?
If that doesn't work, you can always capture your HDV footage with HDVSplit, which is available here:

Also, be sure to go to the Premiere Elements Help menu and select Check for Updates. This will ensure you have the latest patch for the program, which resolves many of the challenges you're experiencing.
Finally, have you ensured that your video project is using the HDV project preset? One of the most important steps you can take in working with this program is to ensure that your project preset matches your source footage.

Patch names with multiple lines

I am using patch names with multiple lines, e. g.:
Intro: In my car
Piano / Brass
Theese patch names appear correctly in the patch list in edit mode, but completely disrupted in perform mode (the two lines are displayed vertically centered, son one can see the lower half of the upper line, and the upper half of the lower l

I wrote my question here because I didn't find a MainStage forum?! Do you have a link?
