Enabling https to the bpel process deployed in web logic server

hi All,
I have to enable https instead http is to ensure that the communication is encrypted for my bpel process(bpel version - 10.1.3.5.0), which will be deployed in weblogic server11g(10.3.1).
Am using the following environment...
This is an immeadite requirement.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

How to enable https in Oracle BPEL Process Manager 10.1.2

Hi,
I have a few security related questions surrounding BPEL process manager.
1. Does the BPEL engine have the capability to invoke a web service using https (HTTP over SSL)? Does it automatically do that if partner link URI starts with https:// ?
2. If not, what needs to be done to enable accessing a https based web service?
Thanks,
Vidya

Eric,
I had applied the steps specified in the URL and modified the files default-web-site.xml, secure-web-site.xml and server.xml in directory Ora_Home\j2ee\home\config. Able to invoke the application deployed in Ora_Home\j2ee\home\applications successfully using https.
For securing BPEL process I had followed the same steps by modifying files default-web-site.xml, secure-web-site.xml and server.xml in directory Ora_Home\j2ee\OC4J_BPEL\config. While invoking the BPEL Processes using https protocol I am facing error “HTTP 500 - Internal server error”, after the security alert popup.
Do I need to do any other configurations for securing BPEL processes deployed in Ora_Home\integration\orabpel\domains\default\deploy directory?
Please assist me on this.
Thanks,
Vidya

How to establish WS Security for BPEL processes running on Web Logic

We are running SOA Suite 10.1.3.4 on Web Logic Server 9.2.
I have built BPEL processes and now want to implement WS Security for them, "Wssp1.2-Wss1.0-UsernameToken-Plain-X509-Basic256.xml" in particular. Have been researching but could not find any document for a Web Logic scenario; can any of you please give me some directions or blogs which might be helpul.
Appreciate your help in advance.
Thanks!

Single Sign on for 2 Web Applications deployed on Web Logic Server

We want to implement single sign on for our application.
We want to deploy 2 applications(JSF/ADF) on web logic server say
webapp1 and webapp2.
If user already logged into webapp1 with valid userid and password and
then he access the link for webapp2 he should not be asked to provide
the credential details userid and password.
How we can implement this
1. If user credentials are maintained/authenticated against LDAP
2. If user maintained/authenticated are from database

you are in the wrong forum. This one is related to Oracle forms. Try the ADF-forum instead.

As you have a BOE cluster running, try setting the domain value in the dsws.properties file to @clustername or clustername.

Composite deployment to web logic server

Malformed WS Binding port. Missing # between namespace URI and service/port names on deploying composite project

<binding.ws port="http://namespace#wsdl.endpoint(abstractAsyncService_Client_ep/AbstractAsyncService_pt)"
location="http://hostname:8001/soa-infra/services/default/AbstractAsyncService!1.0/abstractAsyncService_Client_ep?WSDL"/>
<callback>
<binding.ws port="http://namespace/#wsdl.endpoint(abstractAsyncService_Client_ep/AbstractAsyncServiceCallback_pt)"/>
</callback>
In your composite.xml file the declarations you have for your reference or service definitions are missing correct endpoint definitions. You need something similiar to the above, pointing to your services.

Changes not showing in other instance of web logic server after deployment

Hi Everyone,
My Jdev version is 11.1.2.3.0.
I have developed one ADF application and deployed into web logic server from Jdev itself and is working fine with the URL.
Now the same EAR file is deployed into other instance of web logic server. it was working fine too.
NOw i have modified some columns in the table in ADF page and modified the URL of the page in Controller project properties Java EE Application tab and deployed the page in first instance through Jdeveloper only and is working very fine with the new URL and with the new changes.
But when i deploy this EAR file into other instance of the web logic server i got following problems:
1. URL is not being changed. --> page is running with the old URL only.
2. Changes to the ADF page is not reflected.
3. Test point for this application is blank in web logic server.
What can be the issues with this?
Any suggestions will be really useful.
Thanks.....

About the context URL:
There are 2 ways to change the context URL, 1 for design time (the one you used) and 1 for deploy time.

In 10.1.2.0.2 you need to create your own build.xml
I have found an example, it may be of some help. This does call a property file

Yes you are right. I do have two recieves and I think I need to set the Correlation set is it so ?
here is the code from my bpel file

<receive name="receiveInput" partnerLink="client"
portType="client:BPELProcess3" operation="initiate"
variable="inputVariable" createInstance="yes">
</receive>

<receive name="Poll_For_Zip_File" partnerLink="FileBinaryRead"
portType="ns1:Get_ptt" operation="Get"
variable="Poll_For_Zip_File_Get_InputVariable"
createInstance="no" bpelx:headerVariable="MyInBoundHeader">
</receive>
Please let me know how can I add the correlation If I had to add in my bepl process.

Issue in invoking the BPEL process from Oracle using a SOAP Request

Hi,
We are facing an issue while invoking a deployed Bpel Process from Oracle Applications 11.5.10..
Using a concurrent program( Unix / Host program ) we are passing the input variables required for the Bpel process in the ProcessRequest tags and forming this as a SOAP message payload.
Then trying to invoke the deployed bpel process using the end point location using HTTP POST..but nothing is happening..
The bpel process is not getting invoked when i look at the Console and also checked for the Manual Recovery queue..it's not stuck there as well..
Have set the Transfer Time Out to 25 minutes using UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT(1500);
Could someone please help us as soon as possible with this ..as this is critical and we are stuck at the moment.
The logic is mentioned below :
UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT(1500);
UTL_HTTP.SET_DETAILED_EXCP_SUPPORT(ENABLE=>TRUE);

Where (which folder) are BPEL processes deployed?

As far as I know BPEL processes are deployed into the folder
<APPSERVERHOME>\bpel\domains\default\deploy
But much to my surprise there are NO processes inside.
On the contrary I found my searched process in the folder
<APPSERVERHOME>\bpel\domains\default\tmp
What is the difference between these folders?
Can I just delete singel processes from these folders in order to manually undeploy them?
Or is there no such "hot undeployment" but only the official one through
the BPEL console?
Peter

Hi,
The deploy directory is used only to deploy the BPEL process. Then the deployment is finished, the jar file is removed.
The tmp directory is used to store local copy of the build BPEL process. It contains all the bpel source and class files of your BPEL process.
If you delete the process from the tmp directory (.bpel_xxxx), the bpel engine will create it again at the next startup of your domain (when all the processes are loaded).
You have two ways to undeploy processes.
- The first one is from the BPEL console, but it is bit tricky when you have lots of processes.
- The second is from the BPEL API. Check the API for the IBPELDomainHandle Interface (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11036_01/integrate.1013/b28986/com/oracle/bpel/client/IBPELDomainHandle.html).
There is an undeployProcess() method which takes an IBPELProcessHandle. You can get this handle by using the listProcesses() method.
Hope this can help.

Invoking the BPEL process automatically

Hi All,
I wanted to invoke the BPEL process automatically when ever it is deployed.
Any thoughts...
Thank you.

Hi,
if you deploy your bpel via ant you can do the following options:
add a target and within this target call a script which calls the bpel (e.g. PERL http://dietrichschroff.blogspot.com/2008/10/lost-collaxa-bpel-tutorials.html)
or
create a test suite (http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28981/testsuite.htm#CACDIFFJ) and include it within ant (http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28981/testsuite.htm#CACGIHGA). You can use "Emulations" or the real partner webservices

BPEL process deployment

What is required to deploy a BPEL process on another machine (or oracle home)?
Here is my current list in order, let me know if there is anything additional or if there are any short cuts/wizards to make doing this easier. Also if you donât need to be able to recompile the program, are any of the steps (b â e) not needed / changed if you just copy over and manually deploy the jar file?
a) Copy the workspace folder to the new machine/oracle home and then add it to the application navigator.
b) Re-add or copy entries in the email/JMS/FTP adapter config files.
c) Re-add task users. (Can there entries be copied from one file to the other?)
d) Make sure all referenced local folders exist and are accessible.
e) Make sure all referenced BPEL processes are deployed.
This includes the User task services, they seem to be deployed when a user task is added but not when a BPEL process they include is deployed in a new environment.
f) Compile/deploy the process.
Thanks,
Craig

Hi Craig -
Your list of steps will certainly work. However, as you suggest, you don't need to recompile the BPEL process on the new machine. You can just copy the jar (what we call the "BPEL suitcase" that is created when you compile the BPEL process. For more information on this, and the different mechanisms for deploying BPEL suitcases, see the technote at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/bpel/htdocs/orabpel_technotes.tn002.html
Regarding the user task services, these should just "do the right thing". If you are finding that you deploy a process to a new domain that uses the task service and the task service itself is not automatically deployed by the server, send us the steps to reproduce - this would be a bug (though your workaround of manually deploying the task service would be fine in the meantime).
Beyond that, there are a few best practices that we have which may eliminate steps (c) and (d) in your list (task users and referenced local folders). We would recommend avoiding local folder references that go outside of the BPEL suitcase when possible and using URL references for things like XSDs. This way you can have a central repository that is available from all the pertinent servers.
Alternatively, you can include the necessary files with your process in a higher level directory and have an Ant build.xml which copies them to the appropriate locations. We try to do this with our samples, so that there is a single directory (typically called xxxDemo, e.g. LoanFlowDemo) that has a master build.xml that builds all the sub-directories (which typically include a BPEL process, xxxFlow, a UI, dependent services, etc). See the samples in the orabpel\samples\demos directory for several examples of this approach that you may be able to leverage.
Finally, regarding task users, I'm not sure if there is a simple mechanism for copying them over with our default developer install authentication. I'll check on this however - the question makes sense and we should both make this possible and ship an example where the appropriate users are created as part of the umbrella build.xml for a project. I suspect this will require a simple SQL script, but again I'll check. However, in many cases, again the best practice would be to use an LDAP or similar, globally accessible directory. Then any deployments which have access to the directory service would not require this additional step.
Let me know if any of this doesn't make sense.

"Could not initiate the BPEL process because the input xml is not well form

hi all,
i am new to BPEL and tring to create a BPEL WebServices. now i got struck up with one issue like below
"Could not initiate the BPEL process because the input xml is not well formed, the reason is : Error parsing envelope Please correct the input xml."
But according to BPEL compiler there are no errors in the design and deployment as well. when i tries to initiate the deployed WS i am facing the above issue.
can anybody help me to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kalyan

hi' Kalyan,
The issue seems to be due to XSD file which you are importing while making the new BPEL process,
the XSD file is very sensitive even a simple upper case will create error, XSD file are many times used when you want
to pass some entries to be updated in the database.
use this XSD file:"discountflow.xsd"
<schema attributeFormDefault="qualified"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
targetNamespace="http://www.autoloan.com/ns/autoloan"
xmlns:tns="http://www.autoloan.com/ns/autoloan"
