Dashboard customization during weblogic server deployment

Question

Hi,
We have this requirement to customize dasboard style (bg_banner.jpg) and we have done customization in 's_custom' folder at the following locations
<b><install_dir>\OracleBI\web\res\s_custom </b> and <b> <install_dir>\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_custom </b> by taking back up of s_oracle10 folder
and added <DefalutStyle> tag in "instanceconfig.xml" file.
it is working fine in oc4j server.
<p>
Later we have deployed OBIEE on weblogics server. I have taken back up of s_oracle10 folder located at <b> <deployment_folder>\res \s_custom</b>
and renamed it as s_custom and changed the bg_banner, but it is not reflecting.
OBIEE version - 10.1.3.4.2
Weblogic server - 11gR1
Are the steps that I have followed to customize dasboard when deployed on weblogic server are correct?.
If not, plz help me..

Answer 1

Hi,
When you are deploying BI on weblogic, I think you have to follow the steps below.
1. Navigate to \OracleBIData\web\app\ folder. Locate for analytics.war file.
2. Copy the analytics.war file and rename the copy as analytics-copy.zip
3. Extract all the files from the .zip folder.
4. Identify the bg_banner.jpg location and replace it.
5. Recreate the .war file out of the unzipped folders (Request you to refer to the presentation services admin guide for steps).
6. Deploy the updated .war onto weblogic.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
