Has anyone configured Harvester to Eclipse successfully?

Question

I strictly followed the official guide but I didn't get Harvester working. Then I tried to use Harvester from command line and I am getting the message: Failed to get authToken.
I only made two changes in HarvesterSettings.xml. I change the HarvesterSettings.xml by using ecrypt.bat to get this result <password>v2_1.3jPrBaLjmnJaGGJBn0vwPg==</password> and I setted where is my jar
<rootDir>C:\Oracle\Middleware\repository111\core\tools\solutions\11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester\harvester\</rootDir>
<files>sbconfig.jar</files>
The firts lines of error message is:
[main] ERROR com.oracle.oer.sync.plugin.writer.oer.ALERConnectionCache - F
ailed to get authToken due to: [{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Serve

I didn't reach the entire solution, but I would like to register here what I have done. Maybe, this will be useful for someone.
Step-by-step
1) In Admin menu, I clicked Import Export. As a result, Import/Export utility was downloaded
2) From Import/Export utility, I imported C:\Oracle\Middleware\repository111\core\tools\solutions\11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester-Solution-Pack.zip. As a result, when I click List All under the Import Export, I see JobId 50200, Description Import, State Completed.
3) Unziped 11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester.zip
4) Opened command line from windows 7.
5) Accessed the unziped folder (cd C:\Oracle\Middleware\repository111\core\tools\solutions\11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester\harvester)
6) I setted the Windows enviroment variable: BEA_HOME=C:\Oracle\Middleware.
7) I encrypted the file C:\Oracle\Middleware\repository111\core\tools\solutions\11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester\harvester\HarvesterSettings.xml by accessed diagnostic page (http://localhost:7101/oer/diag/index.jsp), clicked in Encrypt Strings for passwords link e got the password encrypetd (v2_1.3jPrBaLjmnJaGGJBn0vwPg==)
8) I setted up repository connection information (C:\Oracle\Middleware\repository111\core\tools\solutions\11.1.1.6.0-OER-Harvester\harvester\HarvesterSettings.xml). As a result, the HarvesterSettings.xml has this tags:
<repository>
<uri>http://localhost:7101/oer/</uri> ---- here was my last error
<credentials>
<user>admin</user>
<password>v2_1.3jPrBaLjmnJaGGJBn0vwPg==</password>
</credentials>
<timeout>30000</timeout>
</repository>
9) Now I am expecting to be able to harvest to OER. To test I will try harvest a simple wsdl file to OER with the next command.
harvest.bat -file C:\Users\demecarv\workspace\Echo_wsdl\appClientModule\Echo.wsdl
But unfortunetlly, I got this error:
[main] ERROR com.oracle.oer.sync.plugin.writer.oer.ALERConnectionCache - F
ailed to get authToken due to: [{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Serve
r.userException] [java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect] [java.
net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect]
AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException
faultSubcode:
faultString: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
faultActor:
faultNode:
faultDetail:
{http://xml.apache.org/axis/}stackTrace:java.net.ConnectException: Conne
ction refused: connect
After I struggled a lot I discover that it was caused because I was using <uri>http://localhost:7101/oer/</uri>. Soon I changed to my computer full name, it has been fixed, at least to work from command line with a simple wsdl.
PS.: The only serious instruction I found on internet was http://brajeshde.blogspot.com.br/ which tell us to use the harvester which comes with OSB instead of the one comming with OER. That has been sounded a good option if in the future something doesn't work with harvester origineted from Repository. Because I didn't find many related articles I am wondering if this tool is realy used in matured enviroment.
