Configure LABEL_WORKSPACE_TITLE in BPM 11g

Hello,
Requirement: Need to change the branding title from "Business Process Management" to "CompanyName Workspace" in BPM's workspace.
What do I need to do. I've tried to change the branding title in application preference in BPM administration but with no luck.
Please help.

Could you go into a little more detail? Just a guess, but I'd suspect you're far beyond just needing the URL for the 11g Workspace (the jist of this thread).
Sure you've done all this, but just as a sanity check have you:
1. successfully installed SOA Suite and BPM (not just JDeveloper)
2. able to successfully start the Admin server (and Managed server if you installed them separately)
3. bring up the WLS Admin Console?
4. can you start Enterprise Manager?
5. successfully deployed your project from JDeveloper?
Thanks,
Dan

BPM 11g install and configuration with Webcenter

Hi,
I am new to this BPM so need some help in installation. Where can I download the latest version of BPM 11g and for installating it what steps do I need to follow. Also I need to integrate Webcenter also so for webcenter integration what do I need to install and configure with BPM 11g.
Do I need to install webcenter full suite for integration with BPM and if so can I install both BPM and webcenter in one home iteself. Where can I find some documentation arround installing BPM and configuring with Webcenter.
Thanks

Hi,
Need some info on the install I have to install both SOA BPM 11g 11.1.1.3 and Webcenter 11.1.1.3 on the same box. I have installed the SOA BPM 11.1.1.3 but wanted to find out what is the best option of installing Webcenter 11.1.1.3 as I need to integrat SOA BPM 11g 11.1.1.3 and Webcenter 11.1.1.3. Here is what I think are the options but don't know which one should I go for or is there any other option but the fact is I need to install both on the same box.
*1. Should I install Webcenter in a separate HOME in doing so I will end up installing weblogic again and then install webcenter. Will endup having two ORACLE HOMES one for SOA BPM and one for Webcenter.*
*2. OR should I install Webcenter in the same home as SOA BPM and create a new domain in doing so what happens to some of the components that are installed when installing SOA BPM.*
*3. OR should I just extend the SOA BPM Domain and have both SOA BPM and Webcenter installed in the same domain. I believe this will only add the webcenter components but don't know if there are any issues.*
And help is really appreciated..
Thanks

BPM 11g Process Administrator functions: Where are they now??

Good morning,
I've got some decent ALBPM6.0.5 experience, and now I've just started in a new project that uses BPM 11g. I've attended to an Oracle "Hands On" so I know 11g is VERY different from 10g/ALBPM.
My main problem is that I cannot find anywhere where are Roles and Users managed in the server. From where do I administer Roles, Users, Groups, Organizational Units. All that used to be in the Process Administrator. How is that done now? I swear I've gone through all the documentation at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/soa.htm and still found nothing :(
Also, is now using an LDAP mandatory? Or can something like ALBPM Directory still be used??
Thanks in advance.

User/Role management is now done through the workspace itself. You must login as an administrative user (like weblogic) and you will see an Admin link in the upper right of the workspace.
Authentication and user lookup is now handled directly by Weblogic - so you setup authentication Providers in the WLS security realm through the admin console.
By default Weblogic is configured to use an internal LDAP that stores local users (this is where the "weblogic" user itself is defined).
General steps are provided here:

Setting directory dynamically in File adapter in BPM 11g

Hi,
I am using file adapter in BPM 11g for writing perpose. While configuring, it is required to provide the directory location, which can be either physical path or logical. The location where the new file will be stored/saved is written in a text file. I want to fetch the location from that text file and want to store the new file in that particular location at run time. Please help !!!!

Hi,
You can dynamically set -among others- the outbound directory and outbound file name for a File Adapter. See: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_file.htm#CIACICFD. If you need to retrieve the information beforehand from another file, you could use a synchronous read. See: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_file.htm#BABDCEBE.

How to separate BPM 11g from ADF

Hi all,
we are facing with a huge issue about how to separate BPM 11g ADF Task page components from SOA/BPM to a new non-soa ADF managed server.
We are ready to move on pre-production server from development enironment and the new environment has two different servers, one for Soa/Bpm and the second for a non-soa ADF server.
We have deployed all and it seems work fine but...when we call:
        SecurityContext securityContext = ADFContext.getCurrent().getSecurityContext();
        String username = securityContext.getUserName();
got: username = anonymous.
Tried with this also:
             String userName = "";
            //read name from security context
            ADFContext adfCtx = ADFContext.getCurrent();
            SecurityContext secCntx = adfCtx.getSecurityContext();
            userName = secCntx.getUserName();
            //read name from bpmWorklistContext context
            FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
            String ctx = (String)context.getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(context, "#{pageFlowScope.bpmWorklistContext}", String.class);
            IWorkflowServiceClient workflowSvcClient = ADFWorklistBeanUtil.getWorkflowServiceClient();
            ITaskQueryService wfQueryService = workflowSvcClient.getTaskQueryService();
            IWorkflowContext wfContext;
            try {
                wfContext = wfQueryService.getWorkflowContext(ctx);
                userName = wfContext.getUser();
                logger.info("UserName from Oracle:" + userName);
            } catch (WorkflowException e) {
                logger.info(e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
            return userName;
And received this error:
"Oracle | Invalid Token Error in Verification Service.
Invalid Token Error in Verification Service. Received invalid token in .
Verify that correct token is passed."
I have followed this blogs but no luck:
Onkar's SOA, BPM and ADF Blog: How to separate BPM 11g ADF Task page components from SOA/BPM to a new ADF managed server
http://blog.dreamix.eu/oracle-2/ultimate-guide-separating-bpm-adf
Notes about Oracle: How to configure local integrated WebLogic non-SOA domain to access BPM worklist on separate SOA-ena…
I do not understand where the error is. Why the SecurityContext is getting lost.
Can you help me? Any suggestions will be welcome.
Thanks.
Fairlie

Ok, these are the lines of code you can use to create a method that returns the authenticated user name:
try {
IWorkflowServiceClient wfSvcClient;
ITaskQueryService queryService;
IWorkflowContext wfContext;
// Get username of User Login
String contextStr = ADFWorklistBeanUtil.getWorklistContextId();
wfSvcClient = WorkflowService.getWorkflowServiceClient();
queryService = wfSvcClient.getTaskQueryService();
wfContext = queryService.getWorkflowContext(contextStr);
userId = wfContext.getUser();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
And you can add it to the backing bean of your page (a Java Class that you can declare to handle ADF Page components). Let me know if this helps.

BPM 11g Workspace Audit Trail not showing Sub process inner activities

Hi all,
I have been developing some BPM Process in JDev 11.1.1.5 and have deployed them in BPM Suite 11.1.1.5 over Windows Server 2003. I've found the following and would like to hear your opinion:
1- The Process audit trail in BPM 11g Workspace shows the activities of the process but the Sub-Process call activity appears as just a single activity and you can not see the inner activities of the sub-process... making impossible to track the sub-process.
2- In the EM Instance trail you can track the subprocess activities, but they appear wrong; diffrent names, diferente types (ex: interactive activity shown as service call)..etc..
Are these known issues? is this the expected behaviour? Is it just some configuration I missed?
Thanks for your time.

For anyone with the same question, I got this from Oracle support about both questions:
1- I checked with our Engineering team and regarding the expanding of the subprocess activity , it is planned to be released in 12g. So right now , it is a work in progress feature being addressed by our developers.
2- Thanks a lot. I have reported a bug 12909848 to our Engineering team. You can track the status of the bug from the SR.

BPM 11g

Dear All,
I am working on BPM 11g.
I installed the following products for BPM 11g
OS: Windows 7 SP1 Professional Edition all with 32 bit
Installed s/w:
    JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0 Generic Version
    OracleXE 11.2 Win32
    ofm soa generic 11.1.1.6.0
    wls 10.3.5
    RCU 11.1.1.6 for schemas dev_soainfra, dev_sdpm and dev_mds - Utility run successfully.
Overall Installation is successful wth no issues.
Configuration of Weblogic server for domain is ok with admin server, soa_server1 and bam_server1 with test connections is ok.
I am using browser as Internet Explorer 9
After starting weblogic server and soa_server1
the URL for BPM composer and BPM Workspace
works with
Oracle BPM Workspace .......... http://localhost:8001/bpm/workspace
Oracle Process Composer ....... http://localhost:8001/bpm/composer
and not works with (recommended from Oracle Training perspective)
Oracle BPM Workspace .......... http://localhost:7001/bpm/workspace
Oracle Process Composer ....... http://localhost:7001/bpm/composer
why the 7001 port does not work for BPM composer ?
In Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0 after creating application, project and process
From BPM MDS Navigator I configured the connection for Database 11g XE as well using
Override Application Server user/password
For SOA MDS I included the dev_mds user with MDS partition as obpm
tested connections all ok (weblogic and soa_server1 up and running)
In the BPM Project Navigator when I use the Project --> SalesQuote.jpr --> right clicking with
option as Save to BPM MDS the following error is occured as
"Error while saving BPM Project to MDS: BPM-70801 : Metadata operation failed".
If the error is resolved than I can see the project in BPM composer.
My queries on this error are
1) Has soa_server anything to do with this error
2) Is dev_mds schema to be reviewed
what can be the possibility to resolve the BPM-70801 error.
Please provide the solution ASAP or send me the reply to my [email protected]
Regards
Ajaz Ahmed

Hi Ravi,
Many Thanks for my query responses.
I am putting my thoughts and clarifications as per your solutions.
1. AdminServer running at 7001, soa_server1 at 8001 and bam_server1 at 9001 is clear and ok.
2. Port 7001 will NOT work since none of the soa modules are deployed to this server port. - ok
3. Very simple. From domain/config folder open config.xml file and search for workspace or composer and see that   XML section. The value for <target> tag will tell you exactly where that module is deployed and only on that you can use it.
My thoughts : What I understand for config.xml in domain/config folder has information on the domains configured
with SOA_Server1, BAM_server1 and Weblogic server with port numbers and file path. (while configuring domain I selected the check box for SOA_suite, BPM_suite 11.1.1.0 Instead of SOA_suite and BPM_suite for developers checkbox).
Please confirm if this selection is correct for BPM composer. What does module deployed means.
4. Coming to your Training session, it is possible that they had just ONE SINGLE server that acts as Admin and SOA Server. Yes, this is possible. When you create a BPM Domain using config wizard, there is an option like Developers domain like that and thats when you will have just one server at port 7001 that has all soa modules also deployed. That is why in your training they may have used port 7001 for workspace or composer.
My Thoughts : I have everything configured on my laptop which acts as server and client. Do you mean I have to configure the wizard again and Include SOA_suite for Developers and BPM_suite for developers. 7001 weblogic server is clear to me.
Now, coming to setting up composer, it should work. Try not to choose the option to override server name and password. We do not need this. Just select the existing details. You should be able to export to MDS Repository.If you still get errors, please let me know.
I am able to export the BPM project succesfully to save my Salesquote to the required location with extension as
.exp. This is OK. I do not have any problems while exporting BPM Project. I am having problems with
Save to BPM MDS
My current issue is
In the BPM Project Navigator when I use the Project --> SalesQuote.jpr --> right clicking with
option as Save to BPM MDS the following error is occured as
"Error while saving BPM Project to MDS: BPM-70801 : Metadata operation failed".
If the error is resolved than I can see the project in BPM composer.
I am still facing this error BPM-70801. Please help me to resolve this error
Thanks

BPM 11g Attachment

Hello there,
I was wondering if there was a way to configure maximum file size that is allowed as an attachment to BPM 11g process. We are building a process and we need
to attach document as big as 50MB, but it seems like default limit on file size is 2MB. We are using 11.1.1.5 version of SOA site.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sumeet

I do not think this is bug based on
Oracle® Fusion Middleware Modeling and Implementation Guide for Oracle Business Process Management
23.1.1 Understanding the Relationship Between SOA Composites and SOA Components
"In a similar way, when an interrupting timer or message boundary event arrives to a user task, the BPMN process instance leaves the user task but the associated Human Task remains available. Because the interrupting timer or message boundary event arrived before the user completes the user task, the human task remains unfinished, and you can still access it thought the Worklist application. However running that human task does not have any effect on the BPMN process."
This also gives us big trouble. I am looking for the solution.

BPM 11g scheduling

Hi,
I have a requirement to execute a BPM 11g process at the first day of each month at 12 midnight. I've been looking into timer start events, but I've been unable to find the proper configuration to get it to work as a scheduler.
Could someone please provide some insight?
Thanks,
Debojit

Hi,
The following document show how to call a web service using quartz scheduler... It may need some adaptation for your case...
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/learnmore/soascheduler-186798.pdf
There are also commercial products available, search for "soa bpm web service scheduling" you may find some...
Hope this helps...

You'll need to deploy to a server that's in a domain that includes SOA/BPM. The integrated WLS server installed with JDev doesn't include SOA/BPM; which I think is the cause of the message: "No SOA configured servers found"
To be able to deploy you would run config wizard to create a new domain or extend an existing one (but not the integrated JDev server). Another option is to use pre-built VMs that include a server with SOA/BPM installed. There's one for VirtualBox and an AMI/EC2 image available:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/learnmore/vmsoa-172279.html
http://blogs.oracle.com/bpm/2010/06/bpm_11gr1_now_available_on_ama.html
Regarding role assignment that can be done 2 ways. From JDev BPM Navigator open the Organization node. In there you'll see the list of defined roles. When you select a role you can manage mapping of participants. You'll see a dialog to connect to the server that contains the users/groups. You can also use the BPM Workspace to do role mapping. If you log in as BPM Admin (user weblogic in the default configuration), you'll see an Administration tab. From there you'll see Organization->Roles as one of the options on the left navigation table.

What happens to completed Instance in Oracle BPM 11g

Hi
I have the following question with respect to completed instances, I am using Oracle BPM 11g:
1)How long does the completed instance stay in the system by default, how do we configure this setting?
2)How do we archive the completed or unwanted instances
3)Which database does these instances information are stored.
Regards
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
The SOA Suite is responsible for storing all instances of BPM (active, suspended or terminated).
No more the concept of purging instances that were in version BEA Aqualogic 5x, 6x.
So the records of instances will be stored in the database "forever" until you make a DBA or a purge of data in the database.

Display the status of parallel human tasks in ADF web page (BPM 11g)

Hi,
We create a BPMN process (BPM 11g) which splits into parallel branches. Each branch has its own user activity. We want to show the task status of ALL the parallel user activities (running or completed) in the ADF web page implemented for the user activity so the user would have the whole picture of the process.
In another words, we are able to check the status of the component instances associated with the process instance in the Oracle EM. We want to provide the similar information (in our case, we only want to show the status of the human task components) to the user when they access the human task page.
I wonder if the only solution is to write Java code with the API to lookup the BPMN process instance. We try to avoid Java coding if possible. Please advise. Also, so far, I have not found any complete instruction/document on how to access the BPMN process instance and check the tasks etc. through the API. Please help if you know where I could get such information.
Thanks a lot,
Helen

sorry!!

How to get the assignees for a specific role in process in BPM 11g

Hi, Gurus,
I am using BPM 11g. I am trying to retrieve all the assignees for a a specific role in process. It will be a parameter for a business rule to do further routing rule. But it seems there is no way to get the information. I found that there are Identity Service Functions in Human Task Assignment. But Identity Service Functions are not listed in Business Rule Activity, neither listed in other activities except Human Task Assignment. I cannot get the assignees in my process.
Is there any way to get all the assignees for a role? I also tried to retrieve the assignees out engine with Worklist API, but it cannot get either. Actually we can get all the assignees information in automatic activity in OBPM 10g. Maybe I am still not familiar with 11g. Any advice is appreciated.
FYI:
My scenario:
Suppose we have a role named ApprovalTeam. In this role, there will be several different department manager (BPM User) added in the role through Workspace. At run time, a request (With department info) with go through the approval by ApprovalTeam. A Business Rule Activity with decide which department manager will approve this request. Different department request will be dispatched dedicate managers, not all the managers in the role. I have an external JavaBean to get the department information from LDAP. To do the routing, I also need know all the department managers (BPM User) in the ApprovalTeam role. Then I can compare which department manager is matched with the request and assign the task to him.
Thanks a lot,
James

BPM 11G : Business Catalog : Java JAR Files

Folks,
We have invested a lot of effort & time in developing Business Processes in ALBPM 6.5. One of the critical features in ALBPM 6.5 was the Business Catalog - if I had a set of Java Utility Classes bundled in a JAR Archive, I could " catalog " it & reference & reuse the classes via the PBL Code.
We are now evaluating our Migration Approach to Oracle SOA 11G & we have a few questions :-
1. Does Oracle BPM 11G also have the facility of directly " cataloging " Java JAR Archives ?
2. If no, what is the best approach, in your viewpoint, to migrate business logic that is present in many such JAR archives.
We are looking at abstracting the business logic in Web Services - however, the ideal path we are looking at is to retain our investment in the Business Catalog JAR Files.
Please do let me know your thoughts & opinions.
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep Seshan

There are 2 options you have:
1. If you access the java code from within a BPEL process instead you can use the java embedding activity to call these classes directly.
2. You expose your java classes through a spring context and use the spring component to expose the required classes as services within your composite which you can wire directly to your BPMN process.
Thanks,
Adam DesJardin

Invoking bpel process from java in oracle soa/bpm 11g

Hi,
We have some java code to invoke bpel process in oracle BPM 10g following the instructions in http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/integrate.1012/b14448/invoke.htm.
Basically the steps are:
1) get a Locator (com.oracle.bpel.client.Locator)
2) get IDeliveryService (com.oracle.bpel.client.delivery.IDeliveryService) reference from locator
3) call IDeliveryService method request or post with input message and get the response back.
Recently we want to migrated from oracle bpm 10g to oracle soa/bpm 11g. But I can not find the similar API in 11g. It seems now some adapter/binding need to be added in exposed service lane in soa composite view, for example, ADF-BC, direct binding etc, in order to allow java to invoke a bpel process. Here are two very useful links from Edwin about the detail how this is implemented.
http://biemond.blogspot.com/2009/11/invoking-soa-suite-11g-service-from.html
http://biemond.blogspot.com/2009/11/calling-soa-suite-direct-binding.html?showComment=1285198033913#comment-c1055322845511794252
My question is:
1) what are the choices and the official/best way to invoke a bpel process in oracle soa/bpm 11g from java?
2) does user need to add an adapter/binding in exposed service lane in order to let the bpel service be called in java?
3) what is the real difference between a bpm application and soa application in 11g?
I will really appreciate any expert's opinion.
Thanks,
Bin

Thanks for your reply and confirmation, really appreciate it.
Yes, I found the difference of the invoking process API and was able to invoke bpel process using direct and ADF-BC binding by following Edwin's blog. But I have not found any official reference to compare this API difference between 10g and 11g ( I will mark this question as answered if anyone can find an official source from oracle, need to prove it to the team). The API to work with human task workflow seems pretty much the same between 10g and 11g.
