Dequeue (using a AQ Adapter) based on a "Variable" condition

Hi,
I use an AQ Adapter to dequeue messages from an AQ and send it to an BPEL process. I have setup the adapter for conditional dequeuing as follows:
My message object has a field called "title" so in my adapter i use the Dequeue condition as below and it works perfectly:
<jca:operation
ActivationSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.aq.inbound.AQDequeueActivationSpec"
QueueName="DETPAYLOAD_QUEUE"
DatabaseSchema="APPS"
DequeueCondition="tab.user_data.title='Test Case'"
OpaqueSchema="false" >
</jca:operation>
My question is : Is it possible to configure the adapter based on a Variable in the BPEL process?
For example: Can i use the DequeueCondition as : DequeueCondition="tab.user_data.title=Process_Variable" (where Process_Variable is a BPEL process variable that has been populated in the previous activity)
I have tried some of the below ways to get this working but have not been successful so far. Has anyone tried this before?
- DequeueCondition="tab.user_data.title=(String)getVariableData("Process_Variable")"
- DequeueCondition="tab.user_data.title=:Process_Variable"
- DequeueCondition="tab.user_data.title=@Process_Variable"
Thanks,
Amol

That's the way.

Dynamic Destination based on data in message using the File adapter

I am unsure of where to start searching for a clue as to how to impement this. Any comments would be much appreciated.
Scenario
IDOC -
> XI -
> File adapter -
> File System
(DESADV) (Variable based on info in DESADV. ie Site)
Essentially I wish to use XI as a router and transformer for certain message types depending on the data within the message itself.
Is anyone aware of any documentation around this kind of scenario ?
Additional Notes
There is the possibilty of have up to 1000 different destinations from the same message, but the message will ONLY be sent to the site addressed within.
thanks in advance ..

Hi Richard,
The scenario requirement is not yet very clear.
But if you want to route the Idoc to different receiver systems depending the payload value, you may configure it in ID with different business services and then using conditional Receiver Determination using XPath.
That is one way, and if you want to use the same receiver service and only 100 different target folders on the File System, then you can surely use the Variable Substitution for the Target Directory in NFS File Adapter. You can build the target path with from the payload value in variable substitution table under the advanced tab in File Adapter. Remember to set the "Create Target Directory" indicator under Target tab.
Hope one of these might be a solution for you. Let me know if you need more detailed information.

Can we use single DB Adapter for multiple tables

Hi,
I have 3 tables. ONE is the Master table and other 2 tables having Primary and foreign key relationships with the Master Table.
Data is enter in the Tables 2 & 3 (based on Master Table Primary key)
I have to use a DB Adapter in BPEL Process which will be in Transaction (what type of Transaction is Best in such a Scenario).
- How do i implement it in BPEL.
- Can i use a Single DB Adapter for Multiple Tables ? (*Views* should not be created for tables 1, 2 & 3),
as we want to avoid using multiple DB Adapters, as in future Tables may increase or decrease...
- while in Transaction if Table 2 fails in Inserting / Updating, it should roll back on error and also if Table 3 fails in Inserting / Updating, it should roll back table 2 and Table 3.
- how access to concurrent users is maintained / managed in such a scenarios.
But everything should be done using Single DB Adapter without creating a separate view.
Is this Possible in BPEL..
If not, How do we design, Implementation such a BPEL Process in Transaction with a best in Performance (both BPEL Process & DB Resources)
thanks in advance
thanks & regards,
anvv sharma

Hi,
Thanks for your quick response.
I have few quires.
If we use PL/SQL, how do we implement transaction and Exception Handling appropriately based on the Error / Exception in BPEL.
If the Table 2 or Table 3 gives out Error / Exception, i have to handle it separately and intimate accordingly.
Suppose, if Table 2 got Error / Exception - Error Handling would be 'Roll back due to error in Table2'
Thanks & regads,

Can I use the File Adapter to transfer files from/to my own PC

Hello,
Would it be possible to set tu the file adapter to send or receive files from my own PC's file system?
For example I would like to transfer a file from my PC to PI instead of using PI's file system?
Can I do that?
Thanks
Marcelo

If your PC has Windows-based system, SAP XI is Unix-based, you have a problem: Unix can't connect to UNC-path - Unix doesn't understand path like this "
mywindowspc\myfilesharefolder\", and Windows can't mount unix-drives. There are has a tool that can mount Windows UNC-file-share on NTFS like dirive UnixFS - but this tool is not freeware and has a problem when you switch off your PC without unmounting your Windows-dirives on Unix system. You can use a SAMBA, but Admins doesn't like to install this to Unix...
So, if you want to use a File Adapter you can set only FTP path, create FTP-site on your own PC, and so on...
Another way to send information from/to your own PC is "Plain J2SE Adapter Engine". This is a standalone part of SAP XI, you install it on your PC, configures URL of XI pipline, sets local folders to transfer from/to your PC, masks and types of your files, time to sending, any rules and DOS-commands for "before/after sending and receiving" and so on...
In case of sending files from PC to XI, files transforms to XI-payload inside this Adapter Engine and then goes like XI-message to pipeline... When you send it back, payloads come to this Adapter Engine and transform to files on your PC.
I used this Plain J2SE AE on my working notebook for checking sending messages to many different XI Systems.

HTTP UPLOAD using HTTP receiver adapter

Hello Experts,
I am facing a problem where i have to upload a file to webserver using POST , I am using a file adapter to pick the file and http or soap adapter to post the file to webserver. Here the request structure expected by the webserver is a file.
below is the form based web request:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" name="Upload_File" method="POST" action="https://-------/servlet/zxcdsf">
Choose File: <input type=file name="Upload_File" value="fileUpload" ><br><br>
<input type=submit value="upload">
</form>
Please guide me how to achieve this using SOAP or HTTP.

Hi Hemant
Yes you can try with proglog and epilog
Develop the Java mapping to convert the paylaod to HTML tags and replace the tags with corresponding (&, +, =, and %) . This may be able to post the data.
Try to create generic mapping to convert the payload to HTML this will help if you have more than one interface for the same requirement.
Java proxy code is having an advantage that you can always have that as a receiver for any of these request instead of dealing with individual Java mappings.
Try with epilog and prolog and as you said next step can be Java proxy.
Thanks

hi ,
that is possiable without esr,
we need to create one sender communication channel , in that we nend to use "adavnced selection for source file " for sending multiple files from multiple directories.
we need to create 'n' receiver communication channels and 'n' receiver agreements based on communication channels .
in receiver determination, provide multiple receivers

Not able to integrate SOA Suite with EBS using Oracle APPS Adapter

Hi,
We need to listen to outbound business events of Oracle EBS using BES via Oracle APPS Adapter.
We have created a composite containing Oracle Application Adapter and BPEL Process.
In Apps adapter when configured Outbound Business events "oracle.apps.bom.component.modified" using Dequeue Operation,a corresponding subscriber is created in WF_BPEL_Q for respective event selected.
In Oracle EBS
for "oracle.apps.bom.component.modified" status is enabled and in subscription WF_BPEL_QAGENT is there.
When we are changing any BOM component in Oracle EBS Designer and saving it, a record is being created in "WF_BPEL_QTAB".
BPEL Process( Oracle Apps Adapter Partner Link---> Recieve Actvity ) instances are not being created when any BOM component is being changed.
Oracle Apps Adapter is not able to dequeue the data from WF_BPEL_QTAB.
There is not any error/exception in oracle soa suite server logs for Oracle APPS adapter.

We would like to capture a few business events in oracle BOM and PO that are of interest to us. In order to do this,
we deploy oracle SOA composite with BEPL in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Control. The oracle SOA composite is configured for a particular outbound business event. It should listens on a specific queue WF_BPEL_Q or WF_BPEL_QTAB and de-queues the messages from that Oracle Queue or Oracle AQ Table. In jDeveloper 11g we created a SOA project with oracle applications adapter partner link and a receive.
Specifically we are trying to capture the business outbound event oracle.apps.bom.component.modified just to get the event data in this receive.
Partner link configuration: We added the database connection to the oracle EBS instance. Tested it and we
succeded. Chose ANY_SCHEMA in partner link configuration.
We ensured that the JNDI Name here( eis/Apps/Apps ) match the JNDI name provided in the weblogic-->Deployments--
OracleAppsAdapter -->Configuration --> Outbound Connection Pools. For this outbound resource pool, Connection factory interface was javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory. Property name xADataSourceName was mapped to JNDI name of the configured JDBC datasource in the weblogic. When we created the connection pool. We tested and it worked fine. This data source had the connection pool configured to the oracle applications schema with APPS user.
After adding the partner link with the above configuration, we added a receive. We deployed this configuration to the middleware. We went to the oracle EBS modified a BOM component and we expected to having running BPEL instances against the deloyed composite. However, the problem is we are not having any running instance for the composite.
We found that there are entries in the view AQ$WF_BPEL_QTAB with an ENQ_TIME and ENQ_TIMESTAMP but with no DEQ_TIME or DEQ_TIMESTAMP. The ENQ_TIMESTAMP corresponds to the time we modified BOM in oracle BOM forms/Designer
The data is being written in WF_BPEL_QTAB for the BOM changes but not being dequeued by oracle applications adapter/composites deployed in soa server.
Please help me it quite urgent.
Is there anything we are missing on EBS side to be activited. for the events to be dequeued
Any Help is appreciated.

Using WCF Cutom Adapter to return CLOB (or similar)

Hi all,
I am trying to return mulitple sets of data from an Oracle table each of which exceed VARCHAR2(4000).
I wish to do this in one call to a stored procedure as the intention is to assign the returned data to a messages body parts so that I can send them as multiple seperate attachments to an email (using the SMTP adapter).
My oracle stored procedure and returned data types are as follows:
    PROCEDURE get_job(
        po_job_id OUT jobs.job_id%TYPE, po_endpoint OUT data.endpoint%TYPE,
        po_job_type OUT job_types.job_type_id%TYPE, po_data OUT rec_data_table);
    TYPE rec_data_table IS TABLE OF rec_data
       INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    TYPE rec_data IS RECORD (
        data CLOB
        --data VARCHAR2(4000));
If I do restrict the data to VARCHAR2(4000), as shown commented out in the rec_data RECORD above everything works fine.
However, to return anything larger I believe would require me to return a CLOB (even though I would probably only be returning data of a few MBytes not GBytes).
Having tried this I get the following error:
"The adapter "WCF-Custom" raised an error message. Details "Microsoft.ServiceModel.Channels.Common.TargetSystemException: ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
Process ID: 499868
Session ID: 201 Serial number: 33735 ---> Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
Process ID: 499868
Session ID: 201 Serial number: 33735"
I am using Oracle 11gR2, BizTalk 2010 and the WCF adapter with oracle bindings.
Researching this I find conflicting information:
"LOB types: The WCF-based Oracle DB adapter provides rich support for BLOB, CLOB and BFILE types in tables and stored procedures/functions. The adapter also exposes special operations for streaming BLOB/CLOB/BFILE data in the WCF service model
interface." Source: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/adapters/archive/2007/10/29/biztalk-oracle-adapter-vs-wcf-based-oracle-db-adapter.aspx
“Due to the limitation of associative arrays, PL/SQL tables or PL/SQL tables of records that contain any of the following data types are not supported in the Oracle Database adapter:
BFILE
BLOB
CLOB ……….”
Source: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd788520.aspx
Also, this post (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/303cc67c-5e01-4ecb-ba5c-184a1d73a7f7/biztalk-wcf-adpater-oracle-store-procedure-returning-clob?forum=biztalkediandas2) seems to indicate
it is possible but there is no detail so not sure if it matches my requirements.
I have also had a quick look at the
Operate_LOB sample but not sure if this will provide me with the solution I am after as I really wanted to return an array of CLOBS (or similar).
I have seen various other posts but nothing that definitively answers my questions and from my tests I would say that I can’t easily return largish amounts of data (a few MBs) in a single element
from Oracle …. unless of course I am missing something.
Can anyone give me a definitive answer as to whether I can do what I have set out above … if not I will turn my attention to a different solution.
Many Thanks for any help/advice you can provide,
Regards,
Dave

Logging option on file adapter based JNDI

Hello,
While setting up a file adapter based JNDI, I notice under outbound connection, we have logging option where we have rotate logs based on size/time. Could someone please help me understand what does this refers to and how we can use that.
its under - Deployment -> File adapter -> Outbound connection -->"Select a JNDI created by you" -> Logging.
my JNDI, represent to a location where I am writing few specific log content in a text file. Can we handle(rotate) that based on this.
Pls advice.

Using a variable in "arrayTerminatedBy" clause while using a file adapter

Hi All,
How can read a file of sample shown below using a file adapter.
ABC|20081010|
2008|xxxxxxx|
2007|yyyy|
2009|zzzzzzz|
3|20081010|
first line is the header
last line is footer
middle portion is the body
'3' in the footer is the total no of record count in the body
I am able to read the header and body.
The problem i am facing is; when it is reading the footer it is treating the footer as a record in the body and is throwing an error stating - expected the format as "yyyy"
I have to use "arrayTerminatedBy" to indicate the end of the body. But that terminating field is a varying field. How can i use this variable field in the "arrayTerminatedBy" clause.
Can any one help in reading this file
Thanks in advance

See if this helps, I haven't tested it but it will give you a hint in how to achieve it. As you can see I use the startsWith command. I'm not sure how to handle your detail as it seems to start with different elements every time.
cheers
James

A ListItem has its own unique row id so in all likelihood, an insert with the same data will result in a new list entry. The Lists Web Service however, has an UpdateListItem method which will take an update request. [refer

There is another note in the conference (marked answered) to your List Item Update problem. Probably worth a try too. [refer

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
This listed below will fix it...
Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
You're very welcome! Have a great day!
Sincerely,

Using container managed form-based security in JSF

h1. Using container managed, form-based security in a JSF web app.
A Practical Solution
h2. {color:#993300}*But first, some background on the problem*{color}
The Form components available in JSF will not let you specify the target action, everything is a post-back. When using container security, however, you have to specifically submit to the magic action j_security_check to trigger authentication. This means that the only way to do this in a JSF page is to use an HTML form tag enclosed in verbatim tags. This has the side effect that the post is not handled by JSF at all meaning you can't take advantage of normal JSF functionality such as validators, plus you have a horrible chimera of a page containing both markup and components. This screws up things like skinning. ([credit to Duncan Mills in this 2 years old article|http://groundside.com/blog/DuncanMills.php?title=j2ee_security_a_jsf_based_login_form&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1]).
In this solution, I will use a pure JSF page as the login page that the end user interacts with. This page will simply gather the input for the username and password and pass that on to a plain old jsp proxy to do the actual submit. This will avoid the whole problem of having to use verbatim tags or a mixture of JSF and JSP in the user view.
h2. {color:#993300}*Step 1: Configure the Security Realm in the Web App Container*{color}
What is a container? A container is basically a security framework that is implemented directly by whatever app server you are running, in my case Glassfish v2ur2 that comes with Netbeans 6.1. Your container can have multiple security realms. Each realm manages a definition of the security "*principles*" that are defined to interact with your application. A security principle is basically just a user of the system that is defined by three fields:
- Username
- Group
- Password
The security realm can be set up to authenticate using a simple file, or through JDBC, or LDAP, and more. In my case, I am using a "file" based realm. The users are statically defined directly through the app server interface. Here's how to do it (on Glassfish):
1. Start up your app server and log into the admin interface (http://localhost:4848)
2. Drill down into Configuration > Security > Realms.
3. Here you will see the default realms defined on the server. Drill down into the file realm.
4. There is no need to change any of the default settings. Click the Manage Users button.
5. Create a new user by entering username/password.
Note: If you enter a group name then you will be able to define permissions based on group in your app, which is much more usefull in a real app.
I entered a group named "Users" since my app will only have one set of permissions and all users should be authenticated and treated the same.
That way I will be able to set permissions to resources for the "Users" group that will apply to all users that have this group assigned.
TIP: After you get everything working, you can hook it all up to JDBC instead of "file" so that you can manage your users in a database.
h2. {color:#993300}*Step 2: Create the project*{color}
Since I'm a newbie to JSF, I am using Netbeans 6.1 so that I can play around with all of the fancy Visual Web JavaServer Faces components and the visual designer.
1. Start by creating a new Visual Web JSF project.
2. Next, create a new subfolder under your web root called "secure". This is the folder that we will define a Security Constraint for in a later step, so that any user trying to access any page in this folder will be redirected to a login page to sign in, if they haven't already.
h2. {color:#993300}*Step 3: Create the JSF and JSP files*{color}
In my very simple project I have 3 pages set up. Create the following files using the default templates in Netbeans 6.1:
1. login.jsp (A Visual Web JSF file)
2. loginproxy.jspx (A plain JSPX file)
3. secure/securepage.jsp (A Visual Web JSF file... Note that it is in the sub-folder named secure)
Code follows for each of the files:
h3. {color:#ff6600}*First we need to add a navigation rule to faces-config.xml:*{color}
    <navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/login.jsp</from-view-id>
        <navigation-case>
<from-outcome>loginproxy</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>/loginproxy.jspx</to-view-id>
        </navigation-case>
    </navigation-rule>
NOTE: This navigation rule simply forwards the request to loginproxy.jspx whenever the user clicks the submit button. The button1_action() method below returns the "loginproxy" case to make this happen.

h2. {color:#993300}*_Step 4: Configure Declarative Security_*{color}
This type of security is called +declarative+ because it is not configured programatically. It is configured by declaring all of the relevant parameters in the configuration files: *web.xml* and *sun-web.xml*. Once you have it configured, the container (application server and java framework) already have the implementation to make everything work for you.
*web.xml will be used to define:*
- Type of security - We will be using "form based". The loginpage.jsp we created will be set as both the login and error page.
- Security Roles - The security role defined here will be mapped (in sun-web.xml) to users or groups.
- Security Constraints - A security constraint defines the resource(s) that is being secured, and which Roles are able to authenticate to them.
*sun-web.xml will be used to define:*
- This is where you map a Role to the Users or Groups that are allowed to use it.
+I know this is confusing the first time, but basically it works like this:+
*Security Constraint for a URL* -> mapped to -> *Role* -> mapped to -> *Users & Groups*

h2. {color:#993300}*_Step 5: A couple of minor "Gotcha's"_ *{color}
h3. {color:#ff6600}*_Gotcha #1_*{color}
You need to configure the "welcome page" in web.xml to point to faces/secure/securepage.jsp ... Note that there is *_no_* leading / ... If you put a / in there it will barf all over itself .
h3. {color:#ff6600}*_Gotcha #2_*{color}
Note that we set the <form-login-page> in web.xml to /faces/login.jsp ... Note the leading / ... This time, you NEED the leading slash, or the server will gag.
*DONE!!!*
h2. {color:#993300}*_Here's how it works:_*{color}
1. The user requests the a page from your context (http://localhost/MyLogin/)
2. The servlet forwards the request to the welcome page: faces/secure/securepage.jsp
3. faces/secure/securepage.jsp has a security constraint defined, so the servlet checks to see if the user is authenticated for the session.
4. Of course the user is not authenticated since this is the first request, so the servlet forwards the request to the login page we configured in web.xml (/faces/login.jsp).
5. The user enters username and password and clicks a button to submit.
6. The button's action method stores away the username and password in the request scope.
7. The button returns "loginproxy" navigation case which tells the navigation handler to forward the request to loginproxy.jspx
8. loginproxy.jspx renders a blank page to the user which has hidden username and password fields.
9. The hidden username and password fields grab the username and password variables from the request scope.
10. The loginproxy page is automatically submitted with the magic action "j_security_check"
11. j_security_check notifies the container that authentication needs to be intercepted and handled.
12. The container authenticates the user credentials.
13. If the credentials fail, the container forwards the request to the login.jsp page.
14. If the credentials pass, the container forwards the request to *+the last protected resource that was attempted.+*
+Note the last point! I don't know how, but no matter how many times you fail authentication, the container remembers the last page that triggered authentication and once you finally succeed the container forwards your request there!!!!+
+The user is now at the secure welcome page.+
If you have read this far, I thank you for your time, and I seriously question your ability to ration your time pragmatically.

If you want login security on your web app, this is one way to do it. (the easiest way i have seen).
This method allows you to create a custom login form and error page using JSF.
The container handles the actual authentication and protection of the resources based on what you declare in web.xml and sun-web.xml.
This example uses a statically defined user/password, stored in a file, but you can also configure JDBC realm in Glassfish, so that that users can register for access and your program can store the username/passwrod in a database.
I'm new to programming, so none of this may be a good practice, or may not be secure at all.
I really don't know what I'm doing, but I'm learning, and this has been the easiest way that I have found to add authentication to a web app, without having to write the login modules yourself.
Another benefit, and I think this is key ***You don't have to include any extra code in the pages that you want to protect*** The container manages this for you, based on the constraints you declare in web.xml.
So basically you set it up to protect certain folders, then when any user tries to access pages in that folder, they are required to authenticate.

How can I display to a projector using the VGA adapter?

Using a VGA Adapter to the Thunderbolt connection, I can display a Keynote presentation just fine, but I cannot seem to display the screen to project an internet page to a group of people. Is there some trick to this?

From your description my guess is that you need to open System Preferences and select the Displays tab. Then click on the Arrangement tab and in the bottom right hand corner click on Mirror Displays. My guess is that at the moment your display setup is for 2 separate displays, 1 for the computer and 1 for the projector.
