Changing end point directory

I would like to change an existing endpoint that is tied to many agreements. I am able to update the endpoint with no problem but after updating the endpoint the files are still being picked up from the old location and not the new.
i.e.
\windows\file\
I did update the agreement and redeploy with no problems.
I also ensured the old deployments were retired and removed.

I did make all changes per above with no change It seems to be a bug ? The polling is still on the wrong driectory. The log file is clearly showing the old directory and not the new.
My old directory is /EDIfiles/b2bData/Inbound/Dev which is matching the log entries (
2008.02.27 at 06:31:19:597: B2BStarter thread: B2B - (INFORMATION) Repository:getDeliveryEndPointList: Putting ftp://xxxx.na.xxxx.com//EDIfiles/b2bData/Inbound/Dev
From the URI (endpoint I have named)
/EDIfiles/b2bData/Inbound/Dev/New

End Point URI change in Business service?

Hi all,
We had done all our osb code development and moving from one environment to other(Eg. E2E testing to UAT, Then UAT to Production). When we move the codes from one server to the other we need to change the End Point URI in the business service for almost all the OSB services which calls external systems else Calling BPEL services. SO is there any other way to make the end point URI's in some other file and read that file to get the end point URI and set in BS. Or did any one have any other suggestions?? Because each and every time we need to make the code change when we move on from one server to other.

Change the end point URL in WSDL for web-service

Hi All,
Morning , could someone please help us with this question, we are stuck with this currently.
In SOA Suite 10g as well 11g we have a jsimple Java class whose one of the methods is exposed as a web service.
In the project it has created the WSDL as well and have deployed the .ear file to the servers from EM console successfully.
Now we need to migrate this web service to testing & production environments.
1. Could someone please let us know the steps as to how do we change the end point url in the WSDL for this web service (present in web content --> WEB-INF/wsdl path in the j-developer project) for migration in case of both 10g (OC4J) as well 11g (WLS) servers.
2. Also could this change/update be done prior to deployment as well as post deployment as well.
Looking forward to inputs regards this...as we are stuck with this ..would be very helpful
Thanks as always for help & guidance..

Hi
As Vijay mentioned, you develop a WebService in JDeveloper and test in JDeveloper integrated Weblogic Server say at http://localhost:7101/MyWebService/MyPort?wsdl. Thats it. Once it is working. Export it into a .WAR file. If you have any other supporting EJB JARs etc, put all these into a full blown .EAR at application level. NOW deploy this .EAR or .WAR into any Domain on any host and any port. DOES not matter. That server's host and port will be taken. Infact even if this other domain is Clustered domain, still it will work by giving webserver host and webserver port that sits in front of the cluster.
I develop my webservices in JDeveloper and test at 7101 port. This .WAR gets deployed in QC Env at qchost:qcport. Same .WAR deployed to UAT at uathost:uatport and finally to prod also at prodhost:prodport.
Its just the Client (WebService Proxy) that is calling this WebService need to use appropriate host and port based on which Env it is connecting to. For this, simply do not hard code WSDL URL in the java code or anywhere. Simply get it from a .properties file using a key value pair like this.
WSDL_URL=http://host:port/MyWebService/MyPort?WSDL.
Now have Environment specific values for above key and put that properties file in that domain root folder. And in your code always refer this key.
You can use many approaches along the above lines.
If your WebServies proxy is a webservice adapter say within bpel, still you can modify the value using deployment plan .xml file file while deploying.
I would not absolutely prefer opening war file from ear and modifying war and updating ear file etc etc. Also do not have multiple EARs for Environment specific. Just have only one single EAR or WAR file that can be deployed to any environment.
Thanks

Refresh Callable Object if changes are made to VC Start/End points

Looking for some guidance on how to refresh a callable object once I have already brought it into my application.
I have a VC application that I can use as a callable object during my GP process. During design time, I can select it and see the start and end points. I then can map those values and use them in the GP.
If I go back and change the VC application (make a change to the start or end point ... like a new variable or name change) how do I get my GP to recognize that there is a new version of the VC application? Currently I have had to delete the CO and rebuild it...Id rather the tool tell me the version has changed and that I need to remap/group my values.
Note that if I change anything between the start or end point in the VC application there is no problem, since all the GP cares about are those start/end points and how they relate to the rest of the process.

Hello Mike,
It´s a pitty but there is no way to "update" VC based callable objects in GP, (in webdynpro callable objects there is an "update" button that allows to do that) , but with Visual Composer Callable Objects the only way is to create a new one.
Regards,
Marco.

Change the end point in a web service client???

Hello,
With the Web Service Proxy Wizard of JDeveloper 10g R3, I created a web service proxy that connects to a (web service) end point like this: http://carina.bicevida.cl/OidServices/OidBasicWebServiceSoapHttpPort
My three related questions are:
1.- How can I change the end point registered in the (client) web service proxy ?
2.- How can I do this without need to rebuild the client application?
3.- How can I do this once my client application have been deployed in the application server?
Please help.

Hi,
these are your options
- Edit the endpoint meta data stored in the .proxy xml file (e.g. \src\project\myservice.proxy)
- Use WS proxy wrapper and call setEndpoint on the proxy
- Recreate the proxy in JDeveloper based on the new endpoint. This may require merging any business logic if it was inserted directly in the proxy (as opposed to a wrappering class)
where I think option 1 and 2 is what you would look for. I don't know how exactly JDeveloper 11 is different, but I got the info from development that there will be simplifications.

Problem getting parameter values at the service end point

I am having problem getting parameter values at the service end point. I created service end point and this method is having 35 parameters and then i created test client file using Sun One Studio 5. but when i run this test client and make a call to service it sends wrong value to first three parameters to the service end point. I tried all the way round but it gave me same sort of problem. I change the order of parameters change the names of parameters but it didn�t work. And then i started chopping of parameter from the left side. And my problem is solved when my parameter list reached to 12 from 35. So is it a bug or some problem with my configuration or some thing else.
I am using sun one studio 5 with sun one app 7. My service end point does very simple thing. It only takes out put of the parameter to the server log file. And my wsdl file seems all right. There is no conflict with the count and data type of the parameter information it contains.

I just found that there is a bug with Sun One Studio 5. It creates faulty JSP file to test the client for the web services. With above problem I tested my web services using different developing environment such as Jdeveloper 10g. I created client stub using wsdl file generated by sun one studio. And made call to my web service and all the parameter reached perfectly at service end point. And then I used stub class created by sun one studio for the client and made the same call. And it also went well. So the problem is with the test application (JSP File) sun one creates for my web service.
This is the majore problem i faced during the development. But still there is many problem along with this which is not seriouse enough but requires attension. I would like sun developers to make sun one studio IDE simpler and handy .

When using option right/left arrow in clip trimmer end point handle won't stick

From the help menu:
In the Clip Trimmer, do either of the following:
Drag the handles at either end of the yellow clip selection to set a new startpoint and endpoint.
Move the handles one frame at a time by placing the pointer near the handle that you want to adjust, and then holding down the Option key as you press the Left Arrow or Right Arrow key.
Move the entire yellow selection box to the left or right by pressing the Left Arrow or Right Arrow key, or by clicking within the box and dragging. Using this technique, you can change which video frames are selected without changing the duration of the selection
End of help menu clip
The bug I've found is that when I place the pointer near the end handle I can hit option arrow and trim the end one frame forward or backwards but when I then hit option arrow a second time the start handle is trimmed. Thus it is hard to quickly option arrow the end handle trim multiple frames without having to move the pointer each time before hitting option arrow. Trimming the start point handle works like I would like as I can just keep hitting option arrow and the start point handle will trim a frame each time. The end point handle should work the same way but it doesn't. I'm on the latest ver 9.02

Tea,
One thing you can do to help yourself out is to create bookmarks to give you a visual reference for the beats in the music.
You create a bookmark by choosing Bookmarks>Add Bookmarks or by typing command-b.
So you can place your song in the timeline and then play it while tapping out command-b's to the beat of the music. You'll then have little green diamonds in the timeline to use as reference points.
Similarly, you can choose View>Show Audio Waveforms to identify the beats in the music by seeing the peaks in the waveforms.
These techniques should make it a bit easier to make your edits in time with your music.
Keep in mind though, that your movie is built from left to right in the time line. When you edit a clip your clips will always slide in to take up any space to the left of the clip.
When they do that, you can slide them apart again. Doing so will create a clip of black between them that can later be replaced.
One last thing to mention. If you select your music track and then choose Advanced>Lock Audio Clip at Playhead you can then slide a clip around and the locked audio will move with it.
It's a bit quirky I've found, but may also be useful.

Systinet UDDI - SOA SUITE 11G (Dynamic SOAP end point lookup Issues)

Hi,
We are using Systinet as our UDDI product and trying to use UDDI lookup in our BPEL process as well. I have completed the below tasks
1) Configured the Systinet UDDI Inquiry URL and the development soap endpoint in the SOA Infrastructure Common properties in soa server 11g. Did not provide the user-id and
password.
2) Restarted the servers so that the changes are effective.
3) In Jdeveloper 11g, Created a connection with UDDI Registry.
4) Created a sample BPEL process using Jdeveloper 11g that calls an already registered webservice in UDDI. This lookup web service has 3 different end
points (Dev, QA and Prod) and a binding of wsdlDeployment use type. The binding points to the actual wsdl Physical location.
1)     http://wasd.psc.com/SBDO.AD/services/Authez
2)     http://wasq.psc.com/SBDO.AD/services/Authez
3)     http://wasp.psc.com/SBDO.AD/services/Authez
4)     http://wasd.psc.com/SBDO.AD/services/Authez/wsdl/Authez.wsdl
5) In the BPEL created the partner link for this webservice using UDDI Registry and selected “Dynamically resolve the SOAP endpoint location at runtime”
option.
6) Generated the Configuration plan by right clicking the Composite.xml
7) Modified the configuration plan and added a new property name “endpointURL” that points to the development endpoint (referred in Point # 4). Pasting the
required portion of config plan for easy reference.

8) Deployed the service by including the modified configuration plan.
9) The service was able to get back the result. But in the log, it is showing that the WSDL is being searched in all the end points available for that service and does
not take it to consideration the end point provided in the configuration plan.

1) Why the registry search is being done in all the endpoints and is not searching only on the development end point provided in the configuration plan. I
added the SOAP endpoint in the service reference properties on the server as well, but still is searching on all the end points
2)     Not able to determine the root cause for the SRHttpAccessPointNotFoundException error observed. Please refer the above log for details.
Please advice and let me know if there is more information required.

I supposed to make my previous question more concrete, the first answer I need before moving on to the rest of the bigger questions is this ...
What is Oracle’s recommendation for a services invocation framework between BPEL, JEE and ESB containers? From a quick read of Oracle Technet website, WSIF seem to be the preferred framework for this purpose. However, from an equally quick survey of such frameworks in use today outside of Oracle, WSIF does not seem to enjoy any widespread developer community support anymore and all talk in public forum seem to point to newer Apache Frameworks such as CXF which support emerging standards such as JAX-WS 2.0 What is the current stand of Oracle with respect to this matter?

Connect Selected End Point Question

Hi everyone:
I am trying to connect selected end points. I have drawn my open path and Illustrator is not letting me select my two anchor points. I keep getting selections of the entire path. So, of course, the connect selected end points icon is greyed out. I have tried selecting the two endpoints with the lasso and variations of the direct select and select and they all select parts of or the entire path. Does anyone know how to isolate the selection to just the two end points? Thanks so much for your help!

ALWAYS state WHAT VERSION you are using. No fewer than six different versions of Illustrator are discussed here, and functionality changes between versions.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
I am trying to connect selected end points. I have drawn my open path and Illustrator is not letting me select my two anchor points. I keep getting selections of the entire path.
(Emphasis mine.)
The way you stated this suggests you are trying to close a single open path, not join two open paths. If so, selecting the entire path is what you want. With the whole path selected, key Ctrl-J. The Join command also closes an open path.

How do emulate multiple calls to same end point in Composite Test Suite

Can any one help with a problem I face with a composite test suite? I have a composite that has 5 main activities and after each activity it logs a status in a business database. This uses the same end point each time to log a status just passing a different status at each point.
When I create a test in the SOA Suite test suite I can create an Assertion for the first status call to check that the status us being created correctly but the second time the end point gets called the status is different and therefore the overall test fails.
Does anyone know how I can create multiple assertions in a test for the same end point in the same test?

Hi battlFrog,
>>I want to change the end point address to this service that is now in the solution, but not sure what the address would be.
What do you mean about the above message? I wonder if you want to let the client to reference to the service which is now in the solution, but not pointing to a service on your test server. If so, first please try to make sure that service
which is now in the solution can work well. After that please try to use the "Add Services Reference" to help you reference the service which is now in the solution. Once it finishes, you can get the correct endpoint address in your client config
file.
Besides, if your service is a self-host application, you can change the service address in the service side by modifying the baseaddress, if your service host in the IIS, you can modify the service address by doing some IIS configuration.
If I have misunderstood you, please feel free to let me know.

Tone Curve beginning & end points - not moving

I am not the most technical guy in the world so I'll try to explain this as best as I can. In LR 4, why am I not able to drag the Tone Curve points up and down at the very start and end of the of the graph like in LR 3? I can drag them up and down everywhere except at the start and end points of the axis. This is one of my most used editing areas so it's quite disappointing and I can't get the result I want in LR 4. I have presets from LR 3 that can change the starting point on the tone curve but I can't fine tune it. Hopefully I explained this well enough because I would love some help on this. Cheers.

I think it's normal behaviour as per:
When you try to move vertically , the curve follows the lighter grey shape: this is region editing.
To do point curve editing click on the little graph curve and then you can do what you want, as per:

Unable to access following end point(s)

Hi All,
I am facing very strange thing in my BPEL.
Third party is sending message to my SOA BPEL process.Starting point of the (input variable place) is not showing the message for some inputs from third party.For some input messages of third party, BPEL is taking messages properly and it is also showing messages.It is also executing whole process propely.
But some For some inputs(problem related inputs)It is showing below thing at the input message(receive activity):
<message>SOA returned no detail.</message>
But That BPEL process is having further transform and assign activities in that.The contents of the message is coming in those activities (but strange thing is it is not coming in BPEL intial activity.).
Note : What I observed from some input messages(for BPEL that I am getting problem) , payload size is very high.So SOA is not able to show or load messages properly.
I am also getting'
'Unable to access following end points' along with the errors'.I think it may be related SOA infra memory issue'
Please help me in this as I am stuck in production issue.It is very urgent.
Is there any way I can make my BPEL try access large payloads? I think it is the problem of not accepting large payloads.

Hi karan,
Thank you very much for your reply to my question.I will also try to change the message size by informing my client SOA admin people according to you.

Why do arrow heads change ends when using the pen tool?

1. I create a horizontal line
2. I change it to a right ended arrow head selected from my own graphic styles
3. I then want to extend the left side ( non arrow end) with the pen tool
4. I click the non arrow end to extend the line in a vertical direction
5. The atrrow head changes to the other end
Why?

Illustrator's arrowheads don't know right from left, they only know start from finish. Each open path in Illustrator has a beginning and an end. When you use the pen to extend a path you make the end you work from the end, even if it was once the beginning. Deselect the path, then click on the other end with the pen tool to restore the path direction.
If all you are doing is making the path longer I'd would be better to just move the end point.

Problem setting project end point (can't access the end point marker)

I can't seem to set my project end point because the slider control that adjusts the spacing of the measures is obstructing my pointer from being able to click on the end point marker. Any hints as to how I can move the coation of this slider control so that I can access the end point marker with my pointer?

This is called a "Click Zone" where the Mouse Pointer changes to different shapes when moving over or click on an object or an area in the window.
Here the Mouse Pointer changes to "Trim Tool" or "Resize Tool".
Pointer Tool:
Resize Tool:
It is the same Tool wne you move the Mouse Pointer of the right edge of a Region to resize its length.
Hope that helps
