E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 Procedure for OpenSuse 10.2

I recently installed 11.5.10.2 on an OpenSuSE 10.2 machine and found considerable differences between SLES10/SuSE10.1 and OpenSuSE 10.2. The following instructions will install a fully functional E-Business Suite:
Setup the O/S per the following guide:

This script provides dynamic gif generation for many self service/framework applications and Motif Window Manager for preventing REP-3000 errors running bitmapped concurrent requests. If you do not mind the square gray boxes or never run bitmapped reports, you can skip this step.
If you want to test Workflow notifications, edit /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and change:
#disable_plaintext_auth = yes
to
disable_plaintext_auth = no
SSL enabled IMAP for 11i was only enabled after ATG.H RUP 3, and not really required small training environments.
Goto Yast->System->System Services (Runlevels)
Highlight Dovecot and enable it.
Goto Yast->Network Services->Mail Transfer Agent
Leave the Connection Type on Permanent and click next
Leave Outgoing Server blank and hit next.
Check the Accept remote SMTP connections and Open port in firewall, then hit next.
Run Online Update for all updateable packages. This will bring the Sun Java plugin up to 1.5.0_10.

Run “/usr/sbin/rcoracle start“ to set kernel parameters.
1) Setup the environment as you would for running Applications on RH 4 or SLES9
I.E. follow Oracle Applications Installation Update Notes, Release 11i (11.5.10.2)
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=316806.1
2) Remove any LD_ASSUME_KERNEL references in O/S /etc/profile.d files. While in oracle and applmgr .profile, add the following:
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libInternalSymbols.so
3) Comment out LD_ASSUME_KERNEL entries in $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh and $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh
if [ ${setflag}x = "x" -a $os = "Suse" ]; then
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.21"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
os="Suse"
fi
if [ ${setflag}x = "x" -a $os = "RH" ]; then
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.19"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
os = "RH"
fi
If doing a rapid install, the database startup will fail and rapidwiz will prompt to ignore or retry. At this point, edit $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above and click on retry. It will then run to the autoconfig step at the end and error out. Just hit cancel, edit $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above.
At this point, go to $APPL_TOP/admin, and in sid_host.xml,
replace
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.4.2_04</sun_plugin_ver>
with
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.5.0_10</sun_plugin_ver>
Then run autoconfig.
This will allow you to open 11i forms that require Jinitiator in Windows via the Sun Java Plugin in either Firefox or SeaMonkey (the Mozilla replacement) on your Suse 10.2 machine once allowing popups and checking always trust Oracle content on the initial java warning.
Look at your port pool selections while running autoconfig and comment out any ports for /etc/services and reboot. Port 8201 was preventing apache web pls listener from starting.
4) In order to relink cplex library executables (MSC, MSO, MSR, MST, WIP, etc), edit $AD_TOP/bin/adrelinknew.sh and add the following LD option (-Wl,--noinhibit-exec) in the LINUX section:
LINUX)
LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'
DEBUG_LDFLAGS='-g -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'
exe_line='ELF .*executable'
SHRLIB_LD='gcc'
LD='gcc'
SHRLIB_LDFLAGS='-L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -shared'
if test -f "/etc/redhat-release"; then
CPP_LIBS='/usr/lib/libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so'
elif test -f "/etc/SuSE-release"; then
CPP_LIBS='/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9'
else
CPP_LIBS=''
fi
CPP='g++'
CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs
set CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs
to CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -Wl,--noinhibit-exec'
After this chance, you can apply any MRP, ASCP patch and all executables will relink correctly. You can also use adadmin to relink all executables and it completes without error.
5) For Discoverer 4.1.48.08, Follow Metalink Note 280598.1 Discoverer 4i On Linux: Required Patch and Configuration for Discoverer Server Stability to use JDK 1.3.1 and oadj. I updated the autoconfig template files with this change after applying 3895177. Discoverer viewer and plus standard BIS reports all open correctly on SLES-10/Suse 10.1
6) If you want to apply Developer 6i Patchset 17 or 18 to your 11i system, edit $ORACLE_HOME/forms60/lib/cus_forms60w.mk and ins_forms60w.mk and remove the -Bstatic

I have relinked every Oracle Home and applications executables without errors.

Great. The only other setup I would add is if your machine's wired ethernet is ever disconnected, the default setup for OpenSuse 10.2 is to have the interface up when the cable is plugged. In that case, you cannot ping your host if you use static IP address for wired connection and DHCP for wireless. Open YaST, Network Devices. Highlight the wired interface, and select Edit. Then on the General Tab, change the Device Activation from On Cable Connection to At Boot Time.

Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10 to 11.5.10.2 upgrade - DBA HELP NEEDED

I hope someone can help me.....I've spent days so far but getting the same issues!
I am trying to setup an E-Business Suite 11i VISION instance to use for some user training.
I have managed to setup and get running 11.5.10 on SUSE 9 and have no problems running this.
However, I am trying to update this to 11.5.10.2 by applying the Cumulative Update (CU2) patch (u3460000.drv).
I have followed all of the pre-requisite steps in Metalink note (316366.1) and applied patches 4318672, 4229931 and 4297568 as per instructions.
All Autoconfig results as part of this returned an [ALL PASS] status and I was then able to proceed.
I then used AutoPatch to apply u3460000.drv, however at a certain point the script displays:
FAILED: file LoadMap.class on worker 1 for product ecx username ECX.
FAILED: file LoadMap.class on worker 2 for product ecx username ECX
ATTENTION: All workers either have failed or are waiting:
FAILED: file LoadMap.class on worker 1.
FAILED: file LoadMap.class on worker 2.
I've checked the worker logs, adwork001.log, adwork002.lo, and can see they are showing an error:
Message: No ECX_VERSION stored in database.
SQLState: null
ErrorCode: 0
I have copied the last few lines from the adwork log file and also adpatch log file to the bottom of this thread.
I have tried using adctrl to restart the failed workers and also the hidden option 8 to skip this process and both of these steps have failed.
I can't see anything about this error on Metalink or Oracle Forums.

How to go over E business suite?

I am immensely interested in Oracle tech. so that I am going to know how to learn EBS regardless of Oracle universiity.
I really beg your heed!
Thanks all.
Edited by: user648372 on Jan 10, 2009 1:14 AM

From an Oracle Apps DBA perspective, I would suggest the following:
Start with Oracle Apps Documentation.
Applications Releases 11i and 12
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
- Oracle Applications Concepts
- Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install
- Maintaining Oracle Applications Documentation Set
- Oracle Applications System Administrator's Documentation Set
Once you get familiar with the architecture and the different components of Oracle Apps, consider the following:
- Do an Apps installation yourself (on Linux/Windows)
- Set up users/responsibilities/printers/CM ..etc
- Practice Cloning
- Apply Patches
- Practice AutoConfig to manage system configurations
- Upgrade Database/Application
Go for Oracle Apps training if you can afford it. Moreover, consider to get the following books:
Oracle Applications DBA Field Guide
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Applications-DBA-Field-Guide/dp/1590596447
Installing, Upgrading and Maintaining Oracle E-Business Suite Applications Release 11.5.10+
http://www.amazon.com/Installing-Upgrading-Maintaining-E-Business-Applications/dp/0615141226/
Oracle Applications DBA - Covers 11i and R12
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Applications-DBA-Covers-11i/dp/0070077290
Oracle blogs are good source of information; there are plenty of blogs available now:
Applications & Apps Technology
http://blogs.oracle.com
And, feel free to post questions in this forum; there are many people who are willing to help here.
Good Luck!

Basic Questions about Oracle E-Business Suite

I am just now starting to learn about Oracle E-Business Suite.
I am an Oracle DBA, and I want to become an "Oracle Apps DBA".
The following questions pertain to the DATABASE side of E-Business:
*(1)* Is "Oracle E-Business Suite", and "Oracle Applications 11i" the
same product?
*(2)* Is Release 12, the current version of E-Business Suite?
*(3)* What is the Release of E-Business Suite that most Businesses are
currently using?
*(4)* I want to use 1GB of RAM, for the Laptop, that I want to install
E-Business Suite on, and it will be running under Oracle
Enterprise Linux -- Will this type of setup be OK for building a
personal training and learning environment (especially RAM size)?
*(5)* How much disk space do I need, just to do a basic install (no
demo databases)?

Hi,
*(1)* Is "Oracle E-Business Suite", and "Oracle Applications 11i" the
same product?Yes, it even includes R12.
*(2)* Is Release 12, the current version of E-Business Suite?Yes, the most recent versions of R12 are (12.1.1 and 12.1.2).
*(3)* What is the Release of E-Business Suite that most Businesses are
currently using?Depends, some customer still on 11i while other customer managed to upgrade to R12 (or did a fresh installation/implementation of R12).
*(4)* I want to use 1GB of RAM, for the Laptop, that I want to install
E-Business Suite on, and it will be running under Oracle
Enterprise Linux -- Will this type of setup be OK for building a
personal training and learning environment (especially RAM size)?1 GB RAM is not enough, I would suggest you have 4 GB RAM (or more if possible).
*(5)* How much disk space do I need, just to do a basic install (no
demo databases)?This is documented in the installation manual, please refer to it to get the hardware requirements.

How to disable direct forms access in Oracle E-Business Suite R12.1.3

@Hussein Sawwan
Hi Hussein,
I don't know if I have well formulated the title of this discussion. But I will try to explain.
I have a problem on my TEST Oracle E-Business Suite R12.1.3 instance. After login into the homepage, some forms automatically start opening. I don't know why, last week the system was working fine. This TEST instance is used by users to train themselves.
How can I make sure that the forms are opening only when someone clicks on them? I don't want the forms to be popping out automatically after someone logs in.
Thanks in advance.
Clamarion.

Hi Clamarion,
Login as those users and check the preferences, or you can check the value from the backend (through FND_USER_PREFERENCES table).

E-business suite book recommendations

Hi, I used oracle Apps 10.7 about 8 years ago (and can remember very little). I have only been doing core development DBA work since. I am interested in doing a bit of a tech refresh with 11.5+/12 and also RAC, I would appreciate any recommendations for books that will expedite the refresh and explain things clearly without too much "fluff".
Many Thanks.

I would suggest you start with Oracle Apps Documentation.
Applications Releases 11i and 12
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
Oracle Database Documentation
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database.html
- Oracle Applications Concepts
- Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install
- Maintaining Oracle Applications Documentation Set
- Oracle Applications System Administrator's Documentation Set
Once you get familiar with the architecture and the different components of Oracle Apps, consider the following:
- Do an Apps installation yourself (on Linux/Windows)
- Set up users/responsibilities/printers/CM ..etc
- Practice Cloning
- Apply Patches
- Practice AutoConfig to manage system configurations
- Upgrade Database/Application
Go for Oracle Apps training if you can afford it. Moreover, consider to get the following books:

Development in AS10g like E-Business Suite

Hi!
Our telecommunication enterprise has paid for E-Business Suite consisting of big set of modules. Our regional department is planning to deploy many workstations working in various modules of E-Business Suite. Then our regional IT department is going to service and customize functionality of E-Business Suite for our special requirements.
On the other hand, now regional IT department have to design and develop for internal use some quite big application based on Oracle technologies including many remote client workplaces.
In order to reduce cost of learning many different technologies for administrators and developers and dealing with only non-obsolete technologies we decide to use in our application only technologies and design patterns that are common to E-Business Suite.
Now we have installed and running Oracle Application Server 10g on Windows 2003 Server and Developer Suite 10g on deveropers' Windows XP Pro. What are technologies we have to learn and use first of all?
With best wishes,
Igor Shulgin

Igor, the answer varies depending on the nature of the extensions or customizations you plan to perform on Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i.
For example, if you'd like to generate custom analytic end-user reports against Release 11i, you may wish to invest in learning how to create Discoverer 10g workbooks.
Alternately, if you plan to extend existing transactional forms, you'll need expertise in both Oracle Forms and the Oracle Applications Object Library technology (and the associated database design skills).
If you plan to extend existing Release 11i web pages, you'll need to develop skills in Java, XML, and the Oracle Applications Framework technology.
Oracle University has a number of courses on these topics. I would recommend engaging an Oracle Consultant during your initial scope and requirements analysis. Oracle Consulting can do an architectural overview of Release 11i and help identify specific technologies that you'll need for your customizations, and you can arrange for training and additional Consulting help as needed.

Developer License for DB and E-Business Suites

I was a fulltime Oracle DBA from 1982 until 2003. Since then I have only done occasional consulting, setting up RMAN, installing software, patches, etc. for Oracle products, and I no longer have a MetaLink account (disabled) as I am not currently a customer or working for a customer.
It used to be that CD Packs could be purchased (or you could download) and you could use the software for development purposes without paying for the license - under the premise of a "developer's license".
Now it seems that the "Trial Packs" are limited to 30 days and after that you have to purchase a full license.
I want to get back into my DBA role and need the software, on 64 bit Linux, in order to get back up to speed - and 30 days is not sufficient for my plans. I have never had more than fleeting exposure to Oracle financials, and I also want to install some of the E-Business Suite.
Is there sill a developer's license good for truly developing or self-training? and is there a way to obtain the necessary MetaLink account without being a paying customer? MetaLink was a daily destination for me as a DBA. I can't imagine it being any less so today.
Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Thank you Yingkuan. Oracle Express isn't a solution. I have worked with Oracle versions 2 through 10g and still have valid copies of 9iR2 (and others) that I could practice with. I need current, hands-on experience with the current products.
I have a 4 core, 8 GB RAM, 3 TB RAID setup with 64 bit Linux... not exactly the investment you put out for Oracle Express.
I said MetaLink was a "daily destination" (not a "day to day job")... when supporting between 12 and 20 instances, managing 3 to 4 junior to mid-level DBAs, supporting both production and development, and working with 10 or 12 developers, it always was a daily destination. Granted, there are a LOT of things answered by Google and other sites (like Werner Puschitz's site); but, Oracle is, or should be, the source.
Thanks again for your response.

How to Restore E-Business Suite after Server Crash?

Hi Hussein Sawwan,
I have a question that will be useful to other members of the community. How do I restore Oracle E-Business Suite R12 after physically loosing the server that hosts the ERP instance?
I have 2 scenarios here:
1-Existing cold backups of the DbTier and AppsTier are available
I have been doing a full backup of the Apps and Inst folders once a week on an external drive.
I have been copying the DB folder (Data + DBMS_ORACLE_HOME) after shutting down the database cleanly once a week on an external drive. Noting that, here the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode.
2-Existing Hot backups of the Database are available and I have a backup of the Apps and Inst folders (AppsTier)
The database is in archivelog here. I have been doing a full hot backup of the database once a week, an Incremental backup everyday, and a full backup of the archivelogs once a week. All of this to an external drive. The Apps and Inst folders are backed up once a week to an external drive.
Let say something bad happens and we completely loose the physical server. How can I do to restore and recover my Oracle E-Business Suite R12 to a new server?
I know I will have to Install the same OS on the new server, but what happens after that?
Thanks in advance,
Clamarion.

I believe the easiest approach would be:
- Install the same OS on the new servers
- Install OS pre-req software and packages for your EBS instance
- Restore from cold backup (if the crash happened directly after this backup and you haven't lost any data)
OR,
- Restore from hot backup (if the crash happened after your cold backup and you have data that wasn't part of the cold backup)
I assume that no changes to the hostname, domainname, IP Address, port numbers, directory structure, ..etc is taking place in this restore.
Thanks,
Hussein

Displaying BLOB (image) data in BI Publisher Report - E-Business Suite R12

Hi All,
As part of E-Business Suite R12.1.3 upgrade, I need to develop a PO printout report using MS Word BI Publisher Desktop Plugin. The report needs to include images (signatures) from the database based on requisition approvers.
How can I build a custom view and a template to use with an RTF report and include dynamic images in it? Is it possible?
Thanks,
Sinan

yes, it is possible
look at Inserting BLOBs into your report
steps:
- create data definition with query with blob (say image) in xmlp
- create empty template and load it into xmlp resp
- create concurrent
- run concurrent
- save xml
- use BI Publisher Desktop with xml data for construct template layout
- load template layout to xmlp resp
another way
- if image in os you can try to use OA_MEDIA + image name
