How to setup the SMTP server in Oracle apps?

Hi,
How to setup the SMTP server in Oracle Apps? Is it mandatory to keep the SMTP server on the same host where the Oracle data base is installed? Also can someone help how we can set up the SMTP server on different host (not the Database server) and we can use the same for Workflow notification mailer.
Thanks,
Bijoy

How to setup the SMTP server in Oracle Apps? Is it mandatory to keep the SMTP server on the same host where the Oracle data base is installed? No, it is not mandatory. Also please note that the mails are sent out from concurrent manager mode. Not from the database node.
Also can someone help how we can set up the SMTP server on different host (not the Database server) and we can use the same for Workflow notification mailer.

It depends on the operating system you are using. If you are using *nix then sendmail needs to be configured.

I want to know how to setup the logicaladdress (cluster+HA+oracle)

I want to know how to setup the logicaladdress (cluster+HA+oracle)

Please have a look at:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0703/6n343k6g0?q=SUNW.LogicalHostname&a=view
for how to add a Logical Hostname Resource to a Resource Group (in that case the RG where you configrued ha oracle for).
There is nothing special for HA oracle on that part.
If you configure your oracle_listener resource for that specific logical hostname resource, then you should configure a dependecy from the oracle_listener to the LH.
By default the RG will have property Implicit_network_dependencies set to true, which should be enough.
If this property is false, I recommend adding the LH resource name to the Resource_dependencies property of the oracle_listener resource.
For a general overview I recommend reading:

Email Enabled lists - where to run the SMTP server? On APP server or on Exchange Server? Or somewhere else?

Hi there,
I need to setup EMail Enabled lists in SharePoint 2010 site. Where do I need to run the SMTP server? On APP server or on Exchange Server? Or somewhere else?
Thank you so much.

The SMTP service cannot run on the Exchange server. You can run it on a SharePoint server, or a stand alone server and share out the drop directory over SMB.

Where(How to change the SMTP- Server

How to solve the SMTP server issue.

I did the migration from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013 , the workflow emails are sent perfectly in SharePoint 2010 but when i configure the SharePoint 2013 the following error has occurred.
Error : The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
Please let me know if you aware of this.
-Thanks,
Swapnil

That's pretty much all the settings you need to do on the SharePoint side. Does the SMTP server that you are pointing to allow incoming emails from your SharePoint server IP Address? It might only allow relay services to specific IP ranges.
Or maybe you have a firewall that is blocking it?

How to find the smtp server on a linux box?

Hello,
I am trying to set up Notification Methods in OEM and I need to know the SMTP server and port. Which command can I use on Linux to find this information? Thank you in advance.

Netstat is not necessarily the right tool for this task.
Sorry, but "netstat -a | grep 25" will not be useful. For example:
netstat -a | grep 25
unix 2      [ ]         DGRAM                    128925
unix 3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     11825 Better grep for "smtp". For example:
netstat -a | grep smtp
tcp        0      0 vm015.example.com:smtp      *:*                         LISTEN
lsof is a better tool, but requires "root" or superuser privileges. For instance:
lsof -i :smtp
COMMAND   PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
sendmail 3098 root    4u IPv4 13077       TCP vm015.example.com:smtp (LISTEN)Keep in mind however that processing and routing email in is usually a more complex task and involves either to know firewall and mail gateway configurations, or ask your mail administrator. The local mail server may not be permitted to relay email to the company wide smtp gateway depending on routing policies.

Hi Hussein,
Very much thanks to you Hussein. I gone through the doc 471303.1 and came to know that the options and values which we have to take for Launching Discoverer Report from 11i & 12i is differenet. Ohh great its working and I have a question when I am selecting the Discoverer Report function from the Apps the follwoing error is coming.
A connection error.
- Oracle BI Discoverer is unable to complete the connection initialization.
- Default or specified schema containing EUL tables is inaccessible and asking for the log in details.
Can't we go directly to the Discoverer Viewer where we can see the Worksheets without coming through the login page.
Once again thank you Hussein.

In any case, the dtd is incorrect and that may be why. The element structure is at least look like this.
<!ELEMENT labels (label*)>
<!ELEMENT label (CUSTOMER_NAME?, HEADER_ID, ORDERED_ITEM, P_INVOICES*)>
<!ELEMENT P_INVOICES (variable, variable, variable)>If you want to keep some flexibility on variable's cardinality, you can simply it like this.
<!ELEMENT labels (label*)>
<!ELEMENT label (CUSTOMER_NAME?, HEADER_ID, ORDERED_ITEM, P_INVOICES*)>
<!ELEMENT P_INVOICES (variable+)>Then you add the appropriate ATTLIST for the elements.

How to setup the local testing server ??

hello, what do I need to install first before I can setup the
testing server in dreamweaver 8? I have download apache2 triad,
mySQL, IIS 6...
Where should I download the correct version of mySQL because
I need to test my php scripts locally which has something to do
with database?
How do I configure these on the testing server setup
Connection Name - what should I input here?
MySQL Server - and this?
Username - where do I get one?
Password - where do I get one?
Database - gets an error saying "HTTP error code 404...

2)The testing server specified for this site does not map to

I have never heard of apache2triad, but I've just had a look
at the
apache2triad site, which says: "It is recommended that only
experienced
users, with a vast knowledge of how networks, and its
components (Apache
Web Server, ect.) should install this software. It IS NOT
your average
software; a lot of time, patience and effort are required to
maintain
such a server."
Setting up a local testing server is not difficult, but it
does require
a basic understanding of how a server-side language like PHP
works.
As I said before, you must always store your files in the web
server
document root. According to the apache2triad documentation,
this is C:
\apache2triad\htdocs\. Unless you store your files there, or
in a
subfolder of htdocs, nothing will work.

As I said mail servers do have management interfaces. You need to find one and then determine what the management interface is.

How to find out about the SMTP Server

Hi,
I have been trying to configure groupware in the portal - in particular I want to enable the sending of emails through the portal. I already have a how-to-guide that that seems to explain the steps quite well. However, it mentions that I need to know the SMTP Server of the email. Can you tell me how to find out about the SMTP Server? Where do I need to look for the name of it?
Thank you and regards,
Katharina

Hi Katharina,
you need the SMTP server of your company. This means you can't look for it in the portal, but have to ask the responsible person in your company.
Kind regards,
dominik

How to setup the MDT Upstream server and down stream server

Hi,
i have configured the MDT upstream server at office1 & i need to setup the downstream server at office2.
Image should be replicate from upstream server to downstream server and image should be build from
downstream server at office2 not upstream server. I need to use LAN network, not MAN network.
How i can setup the downstream MDT server?
Can you please suggest on this.
Thanks!

Hi Meganathen,
I would go for a periodically (scheduled) robocopy. Yes it's perfectly possible to create this with selection profiles and linked deploymentshares, but based on my own experiences and consulting other subject matter experts like MVP Johan Arwidmark, it is
advised to take care of replication yourself by robocopy or by DFSR
This way you are in control, and robocopy is a great tool to take care of replication of files.
To keep in mind your central deploymentshare and branche deploymentshare, you can play with the bootstrap.ini and customsettings.ini, that they will refer to a different deploymentshare location based on default gateway.
See these links for more information:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1c4bf193-6293-4207-9995-005dd1756fdd/mdt-2010-for-multiple-sites?forum=mdt
