Forms upgrade from 11g R1 to 11g R2

Hi,
We are planing to migrate from 11g R1 forms to 11g R2 forms. So we migrated one of the environment from 11g R1 to 11g R2. We noticed that the screen repaints / Flickers in forms 11g R2. This behavior is noticed in all the forms in 11g R2 environment. This never used to happen in the previous release.
Can you please help on resolving this issue? Is this related to some configuration?
Regards,
Sudhir

Have you applied the latest patch, which I believe is patch 14037368?
It fixes the following bugs, though I'm not sure any relate to your problem:
10388906: EMPTY TOOLTIPS INDUCE FOCUS AND ACTION PROBLEMS
12433970: APPS6: FORM HANGS RANDOMLY WHILE SHOWING INCREMENTAL ALERT
12956754: APPS6: INTERMITTENT FRAME LABEL SHIFTS IF CONTENT CANVAS HAS TAB CANVAS
13469105: FOCUS LOSS IN ALERT DIALOG
13652243: JRE USES 100% CPU WHEN FOCUS ON RADIO BUTTON AND CTRL-S/CTRL-K/ ... KEY PRESS

Challenges while Upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g

Hi Gurus,
This is Kiran again. This time I am back with the upgradation issues. We have a client which is currently on OBIEE 10g. All components are already configured in OBIEE 10g with client on RPD, Catalog and implemented all security levels for those.
Now the challenge is to upgrade all activities which we have configured in OBIEE 10g. I have seen lot of stuff online and understood how to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to OBIEE 11g by simply clicking on ua.bat file. But I am unable to understand the process how it is upgrading the securities and environments.
Can anyone help me out by providing necessary stuff I need to take care of before taking the decision to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to 11g.
And also please clear me whether we will have any challenges in upgrading process. If yes, then what kind of challenges we will face and what kind of necessary steps we need to implement to resolve it.
What kind of Architecture we need to follow?
How Schedulers will get upgraded?
Please help me out with your real experiences (Not the online websites). Your response will be highly appreciated and it will help lot of OBIEE professionals who are in the process of upgradation.
Thanks in Advance to all OBIEE GURUS.
Kiran

Error during upgrade from OBIEE 10G to 11G

Hello All
I ran into this issue while trying to upgrade my 10g RPD and catalog to 11.1.1.7
After installing 11G, I launched the upgrade utility from Oracle_Common/bin/ua in linux.
I am getting the below error:
UPGAST-00797: Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Assistant cannot be run from an Application Developer Oracle home.
Based on the Oracle Doc. it has the following desc:
UPGAST-00797: Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Assistant cannot be run from an Application Developer Oracle home.
Cause: The user has chosen to perform a upgrade from an Oracle home that does not allow an upgrade.
Action: None.
Level: 1
Type: ERROR
Impact: Upgrade
So what should I do to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
First of all i am not familiar on linux box.
I tried in windows environment the rpd is deployed with out any errors.
But i ran the ua.bat file in the following path
\MWHOME\Oracle_BI1\bin\ua.bat.

LDAP synch not supported during OIM upgrade from 9.x to 11g

Hi Experts,
Following line is mentioned in OIM upgrade guide for 9.x to 11g (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/upgrade.1111/e10129/upgrade_oim.htm)
“LDAP Sync is not supported when you upgrade from Oracle Identity Management 9.1 to Oracle Identity Management 11g”
Please help me in understanding the above line.
I have a pretty simple setup of OIM (version 9.1.0.2) with AD and Exchange connected. I guess I don't have any impact of above line.
LDAP synch is required when we integrate oracle identity manager with oracle access manager.
Please suggest.
Thanks
M S

Yes LDAP Sync has most of the features when you have OIM and OAM integrated with each other. You can go ahead with upgrade if LDAP Sync is not part of your requirement.

Need to upgrade from 8i OCP to 11g OCP

I had my 8i DBA OCP a long time ago (2002). Now I'm planning to upgrade it to 11g OCP. I have a couple of questions about my options.
I know one of my options is to upgrade to 10g first and them upgrade from 10g to 11g.
But what about if I would like to take 11g tests, such as 1Z0-052, 1Z0-053? This will be my second option.
1) In my second option, will my exsiting IZO-001 (Introduction to Oracle SQL and PL/SQL) pass remains valide as an SQL exemption?
2) Since I already have OCP, will I exempt for oracle hands on training?
BTW, I already have an account in CertView and see all my certification information.
Thanks very much for any help.
Best Regards
Cindy

CindyI dont have time to seek out the authorive posts from times past.
But for an 8i DBA OCP with 1z0-001 then passes in 1z0-052 + 1z0-053 will achieve 11g DBA OCP certification with no additional training.
I will often recommend raising an Service Request to confirm this; as it would be a very expensive investment in money/time if it were not to be the case.
Thankou for giving all relevant information which has made the answer easy for me to give.

So now the customer wants to know what could be the reason for the upgrade failure.
It it because of the preferences are not valid in Discoverer 11g?

Hi Padmanabh
How are you doing the upgrade?
Personally, because you have to use a new weblogic server anyway I would install a clean 11g and then re-apply any preferences. With that done I would export the entire EUL from 10g and import it into the clean 11g. You'll be up and running in no time at all.
There is no need to upgrade the EUL as it is the same in both 10g R2 and 11g.
Best wishes

Oracle Database upgrade from 10g R2 to 11g R2

Dear Oracle Experts,
Currently we I have three database on Oracle 10g(10.2.0.5) in same oracle home and want to upgrade only one database out of three.
Can you please advise if I can upgrade only one database instance(out of three database, same oracle home) and my two other database will run on 10g ? and can you please share steps also for the same
Best Regards
Farookh

Hi,
As Harry pointed out already, it's definitely possible and a good idea actually. By installing a new Oracle home you can easily revert back to the 10g one if you need to. It keeps everything separate and makes it cleaner.
I would recommend reading the Oracle docs. DK2010 has written them down here:
upgrade the database version 10.2.0.1.0
I made some notes on how to upgrade your database from 10g to 11g over on my site, they are the exact steps I used. It might help you to have a read through them but you should definitely read the Oracle docs and make sure everything you need for your environment is covered before upgrading. [url http://www.ora00600.com/wordpress/articles/oracle-10g-to-11g-upgrade-guide/]Here are my notes.
Hope that helps,
Rob

Upgrading from 10.2g to 11g by incrementals

Hello,
I know it's possible to generate a full rman backup in a 10.2g database, move it to another server containing 11g, restore it there and finally do an upgrade.
Since I have to do this to a large database and there are several things involved (apps, servers, network, etc), it could take me a few days and not only one night.
Could I make a full rman backup in 10.2g, restore it in 11g, upgrade, and in the next days go making incremental rman backups in 10g and restoring it in 11g, until we decide to shutdown 10g and use 11g in production. Something like a standby database, but in this case current database would be 10g and standby database would be 11g.

This MOS (Metalink) note discusses restores between different versions:
Frequently Asked Questions about Restoring Or Duplicating Between Different Versions And Platforms [ID 369644.1]
It is very likely that you cannot apply 10g incremental backup to an upgraded (to 11g) database. The upgrade changes data in the SYSTEM tablespace, so I seriously doubt you can apply incremental after that.
Something like a standby databaseWay to go – make a real standby (10G) on the new server. Install the 11g new software and when the time comes - upgrade.
The timing of the upgrade does not depend on the size of the DB, but rather on the number of objects in it. In most cases, the update would take only a few hours, but you should test to find out the timing in your case.

Error during installation phase when upgrading from oracle 10 to 11g

hi,
We have going to upgrade oracle 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.3 in SAP ECC 6.4(DB:oracle, OS:AIX6.1). By mistake I run RUNINSTALLER from wrong path oracle/stage/11203 <dump folder>/database instead of SAP folder.it gives some error message during installation but i continue to installation and installation is completed.
now i worried about error and and wrong path selection, i removed manually new oracle home folder 112_64 and continue to new installation from proper path but now i am getting below error when running RUNINSTALLER from SAP folder
"[INS-10008] Session Initialization failed".and log are as

Forms HOST command no longer works after database upgrade from 10g to 11g

Hi,
After upgrading the database 10g to 11g the forms HOST command no longer works on Unix server. The form used to work fine prior the upgrade. I read all the threads I could find and did not see any solutions. Adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work because it does not even run a basic shell script. (I saw this solution, adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, in many questions / threads).
1. I wouldn't expect the database upgrade to be an issue, but it is the only change we had.
2. Note, 11g is Oracle Fusion Middleware which is quite a bit different than 10g.
I even tried the most basic commands like "echo" which is a build-in Unix command and there is no directory for it (ie. no /usr/bin - so variable PATH is irrelvent). i.e HOST('echo hi'); and HOST('echo "hi" '); and even HOST ('echo hi > /my_file.txt'); all returns FORMS_FAILURE (actually the if is IF FORM_SUCCESS THEN ... else ... and the else part always runs now - whereas it didn't before.).
Or basic commands like /usr/bin/ls as in HOST(/usr/bin/ls). At that point I was just testing the Unix command would return FORM_SUCCESS even though I could not see the results (because they weren't writing to a log file). Notice that I'm using the direct path /usr/bin so no Unix environment variables were needed.
The form does use webutil but that part works. For example, we have webutil_file_transfer( ....) The file shows up on the application server and in the expected directory.
Here's the main goal. Upload a file from clients local PC to the datebase server. The form uploads the file to the Application server, then we have a Unix script to scp (secure copy) the file from the application server to the database server. IF webutil, or any other Oracle functions could put the file on the database server that would be better. But, I don't know of any procedures that do that - or would have done it cleanly (i.e. storing to database and write back to server and then using a blob etc. )
Anyway, I was hoping someone would help with either of these.
1) Get the HOST command to work. - If we can get that to work then I wouldn't need any more help. We can just call the already existing Unix script to copy the file from the application server to the database.
2) OR be able to upload directly to the database server - wanted to do that originally
Any help would be appreciated

Solution for those interested and for anyone else searching this forum for a solution
I found this on My Oracle Support:
<h3>Host Command from Forms Not Working in 11g in Sun Solaris Sparc OS [ID 1157346.1]</h3>
Applies To: Oracle Forms - Version 11.1.1.1.0 and later
Sun SPARC Sun OS
Symptoms:
When trying to execute a Shell script or any OS command using the host() Built-in from Forms 11g, the host()command is not getting executed. The same functionality works on other operating systems and in previous versions like 10gR2.
Steps to be followed:
1) Take a backup and edit the $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/WLS_FORMS/applications/formsapp_11.1.1/config/default.env or any custom environment file.
2) Locate the following environment variable:
LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) Comment out this variable. After the changes, it will look like the following:
#LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) a) Instead of LD_PRELOAD, kindly use LD_PRELOAD_64 as given below :
LD_PRELOAD_64=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
(This makes HOST AND RUN_REPORT_OBJECT work fine).
4) Save the file and execute your forms. The Host() built-in will work as expected
The LD_PRELOAD setting in default.env is only required for the working of signal chaining facility in JVM version 1.5 and later. If you are not using theSignal chaining facility, this variable is not required. For more information, refer to the following documentation

Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR]

Hi Deepak/Folks,
Another question that I have is that while doing the Oracle Upgrade on an EP server, the patches were not installed properly and I had to shut down the Patches installation after it did not do anything for a while.
Now when I try to install the patches it fails telling me that the Installed patches cannot be verified, I had written to SAP and they told me to follow the
SAP note 1862446 - Inventory

and re-create the oracle inventory.
This has also not helped in anyway.
Is there a solution to this problem.
