Configuring ALBPM Studio Built-in Engine

I am working through the tutorial on ALBPM studio and have reached the stage at which I need to run a process using the studio's built-in engine [i.e. Run/Start engine...].
When I do this, I always get several failure messages that indicate the engine cannot run. The most informative of these indicates:
"SERVER STARTUP aborted. Server not configured or
not able to run in host: 'laptop'"
'laptop' is the hostname of [no surprise] my laptop.
Can anyone advise me as to where I can configure the 'Server' to run correctly on my host machine. I cannot find any documentation as to how the configure the internal engine, nor does there seem any relevant setting in the Engine settings.
Thanks for any help.

Which operative system are you using? this can happend due to a DNS
problem when resolving your local machine name.
Here is a solution that worked for a linux used:
did a "hostname" on my Linux and it came back with "linux". I found an
entry in the /etc/hosts file for linux but for IP address 127.0.0.2. I
commented it out and added the "linux" short name to 127.0.0.1. I
republished-deployed and it failed again. I then removed the system and
build directories, republished-deployed and this time I was able to
start the server.

  • Configuring SSL certificates on ALBPM Studio

    Hi,
    I am invoking a web service which is deployed on a web logic server which is a secure server and needs SSL certificates to communicate. I have the certificates but don’t know how to configure it to my ALBPM Studio.
    Can I configure those to studio or do I need to deploy my code on the Enterprise edition installed on application server having these SSL certificates? But in that case I would land up investing so much time in deploying the code on server after even a small change. Since I don’t have those certificates configured to my studio it is not allowing me to catalog the service in my project and throwing Introspection error. The details of the error are mentioned below:
    +[Error] Web Service WSDL parse exception: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target..+
    +[Error] Instrospection exception: Web Service WSDL parse exception: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target...+
    Can anyone throw any pointers on this type of error
    Thanks,
    Akshay

    In order to communicate with SSL secured webservices (those with WSDL end point starting as https:// you need to have certificates from these servers.
    For BPM Standalone these are the steps
    1. Download the .cer file from server. (One way is you can use IE browser to get that file and export it from browser to a local directory)
    2. Put this file in %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security. You can put it anywhere you want.
    3. Run the following command at a command prompt:
    C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin>keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias <CERT ALIAS NAME> -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -file ..\lib\security\gd_<cert file name>.cer
    4. You will be prompted for a password. If you have not changed the password, it will be "changeit".
    5. You will then get the following message if all is successful - "Certificate was added to keystore".
    6. Restart Tomcat (inbuilt server in BPM Studio).
    This should solve your problem.
    Pls note that if you have not configured your keyStore then first do so. you will find this document handy to do so.

  • Scope of ALBPM Studio and ALBPM Enterprise Server

    Hi
    I have some simple questions about ALBPM Enterprise Server:
    it is really necessary to have this component in a production environment?.
    For example, if a company is very small with 10 or 15 employees and you have only 2 processes in the company, ALBPM Studio is not enough to execute and to administrate these processes?
    What are the problems that I would have if I decided to set up a production environment only with ALBPM Studio?
    What things I could not do if I will not have the Enterprise Server?
    How many users simultaneosly support the ALBPM Studio in a testing environment?
    Thank you so much...

    Hi,
    The short answer is 'yes', you'll need an Enterprise server. Here are some of the issues with using Studio:
    Functionality:
    You can't do everything you can do in the Enterprise server in the Studio engine. However, whether this is an issue would depend on the complexity of your processes/requirements. For example, the Studio engine doesn't support the versioning of processes.
    Licensing:
    I don't know for sure, but I doubt the ALBPM licensing allows for Studio to be used in 'production'.
    Runtime
    The Studio engine can't be isolated from the Studio application. So you'd always have to make sure someone had studio running on a PC somewhere.
    Users
    You are limited to 5 concurrent users in Studio.
    There did actually used to be a copy of the Engine that was aimed at small scale deployments called 'Express' (I think), but it disappeared a while back.
    Hope this helps,
    Tim

  • ALBPM Studio and Directory.xml

    Can I use ALBPM studio to deploy the process(start engine) and still use the PAPI apis to list the processes? I the web-INF dir, I dont see the directory.xml but it can be seen in the case of enterprise installation which requires the deployment of the WAR each time I make changes to the custom JSP code which access the process engine.
    In other words, how can I use the studio to test the PAPI aplis?
    Any help would be greately appreciated.
    thanks
    Johns

    Hi Johns,
    You can use PAPI and PAPI-WS with Oracle BPM Studio 10gR3.
    Check the following documentation link: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/papi/index.html.
    In there, expand the "Oracle BPM Process API (PAPI) and read the section labeled "Connecting to an Engine Running in Studio".

  • How to import the .exp/XPDL/XSDL file into ALBPM Studio 5.7

    Hi,
    Can somebody tell how to import the .exp file that are developed in ALBPM Studio 6.0/Oracle BPM 10g r3 into ALBPM 5.7. I have tried but can not able to import the project as the file suported by ALBPM 5.7 is <.fpr.exp>. I have also tried to import the XPDL/XSDL file developed in 6.0 to 5.7 but can not able to do so. It is importing the file but the only the automatic activities are showing in workspace (All the other activities like Interactive, Grab etc are not displayed). The code inside that automatic activities are also not there.
    How to import the file/files in ALBPM 5.7
    Regards,
    Bibhu

    Hi Bibhu,
    I expect importing a project to an older version of BPM isn't going to work or be supported.
    Most products are built to be backwards compatabile, not forwards compatible.
    I recommend you go to one version of the product anyway - trying to maintain two adds to your maintenance and support overheads.
    In which case migrating your processes from 5.7 to 6.0 (or even 10g) would be supportable and the best way to go.

  • Why SQL services is dont start in configuration manager studio 2012

    I finished installing SQL server Management Studio 2012 and that of configuration management studio.
    When I wanted to log in did not find server name, and I tried <pc name>\SQLEXpress, still did not work.
    So checked configuration management studio and I noticed that usually we see arrow type button (like "play " button) on the picture of CPU beside word- SQL server services on configuration management studio, was not seen.
    is it the reason why it SSMS don't find Server name?
    I freshly install SSMS, did I miss to install something?
    Please help... Thanks

    Also, did you install Express edition, if so, Express edition does not have sql Server agent service but you will see that in the configuration manager with Stop button kind of thing and you cannot start that,o do not worry about it
    A more appropriate description would be
    Express edition has SQL Server agent code inbuilt but is disabled by edition restriction. It is there because when you upgrade SQL Express to Enterprise or Standard Upgrade just need to enable that code to bring Agent services it saves itself from hassle
    of writing a code for agent.

  • SOAP Access from ALBPM Studio

    I have a problem on accessing a webservice via SOAP. In detail: the webservice is developped in .NET (with Visual Studio .NET). I just took the WSDL file and generated the Service in ALBPM Studio. So far everything works fine. But if i try to access the webservice though the access of the method generally works fine, some parameters do not reach the webservice. On analyzing the soap message i found that the problem seems to be that in the relatively complicated parameter (array of int) the namespace is not used correctly (the int in the array has the wrong namespace and can't be interpreted by the webservice). So my question is: is this a known problem of the ALBPM Studio? Btw we have a similar problem when we access the Aqualogic ESB from ALBPM Studio. So it really looks like a problem of the ALBPM Studio. Thank in advance for any comments!

    I know I am trudging up a very old thread here, but has there been any resolution to this issue of passing arrays over SOAP? It seems like using arrays of simple types in web services would be a fairly common occurence, but this is the only thread I could find on the subject.
    I am using ALBPM 5.7 and haven't seen anything in newer release notes that would indicate this has been resolved.
    Thanks!

  • Distributing an Application that calls Visual Studio built DLLs

    I have a LabVIEW application that calls a Visual Studio 2005 built DLL, that then calls functions from another Visual Studio built DLL. When trying to distribute this application it will execute perfectly well on all machines with Visual Studio installed, but on any machine that doesn't have Visual Studio installed, despite installing the Visual Studio Redistributable Package on the machine, I get the error message on attempting to run the application:- "Missing External Function 4575Interface.dllname of function):C in (sub VI that uses function).vi" for the 10+ VIs that use functions called from that dll.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    You will need to manually add all of the DLLs you
    are calling into your LabVIEW project. Check in the folder
    "Dependencies" in your Project Explorer what external DLLs the VIs are
    using, then drag and drop those DLLs into your project. LabVIEW will
    not automatically include these external DLLs when you specify a build
    specification unless you explicitly tell it to do so. When you
    distribute the application using an executable, always explicitly
    select those DLLs as "Always Included". Finally, register these DLLs on
    the target machine by using Windows command: regsvr32.exe. I would recommend you to write a Windows batch file *.bat to ease the deployment process. 
    Another
    point to note is, the DLLs you will find in the folder "Dependencies"
    are the DLLs LabVIEW automatically recognized through what you are
    calling in your program. However if any of these DLLs is linking some
    other DLLs, LabVIEW will not be able to detect them on the build, so
    you will need to add the DLLs into your project manually for
    distribution.
    Hope this helps,
    Best regards,
