ICM_HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE when testing connection to a HTTPS server

Hello SAP gurus!
I have created a RFC connection to a wsdl server using the SOAMANAGER, which is on the secured connection (https). SAP cryptographic library is installed, in ICM I see the both services green (active). And still when I try to test my RFC connection in SM59 I'll get ICM_HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE.
How come? When my HTTP SERVICE (as seen in TA smicm) is on and active? :-o
Any hints?
Thanks for help in advance.
Cheers!
- Stefan

Well, the result is like this:
Ping the HTTPS server (hostname or IP address, both returned same results) with the terminal from the application server:
100% packet loss.
The OS is openSUSE and the proxy setting is set correctly (firefox sees the internet... it also can view the https server mentioned above)
Ping from SAP (with OS01) also 100% loss, though the general proxy setting is also set.

Error when I try to run HTTP Server

Hi there,
I am trying to start HTTP server so that I may setup and use WorkFlow (Process Flows). I am using OWB 9.2 and Workflow 2.6.2 on Windows XP. Here is what I get when I start the HTTP Server:
-------------------- in a DOS Window ----------------
Syntax error on line 92 of c:/oracle/ora92/sqlplus/admin/isqlplus.conf:
FastCgiServer: redefinition of a previously defined FastCGI server "c:/oracle/ora92/bin/isqlplus"
Note the errors or messages above, and press <ESC> key to exit. ...
I tried reinstalling HTTP server but it did not help. I am not sure what is wrong and hot fix it. I think without HTTP server, I may not be able to run my "Process Flows".
Please advise!
TIA,
Muhammad Amer

Thanks Igor!
I understand that in order to run Process Flows from within OWB, I do not need HTTP server. But I want to be able to schedule the "Process Flows" and some of the documentation I have read suggests that I need to configure and run HTTP Server. I am not quite sure if OEM fits into this process, too?
Could you kindly let me know if I'd need to schedule the jobs through OWM or OWF Manager is enough?
Also, whether we can run non-OWB jobs using OWF - for example, a PL/SQL Package and/or a Unix script? If the answer is yes, what is required to accomplish this? My organization does not have a job-scheduling tool and I want to find out if OWF can do this for us.
Thank you once again and I look to hearing from you soon.
Best regards,
Amer

Strange error when enabling SSL on Oracle HTTP Server

Hi,
In our production environment Oracle HTTP Server starts fine when SSL is disabled.
We've enabled SSL in our dev/uat environments using instructions from the Oracle Documentation. It was pretty straightforward.
When i tried to do the same in our production environment, the Oracle HTTP Server wouldnt restart. I've had a look around the forums and havent seen anyone report the same error we are seeing in the logfile.

Has anyone experienced this problem before? Any idea how we can get this working?
Thanks,

Noticed that when it starts with apachectl startssl, it doesnt like any <VirtualHost directive
The line in the dms.conf file that it errors out at is :
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:7201>
When i added a redirect the httpd.conf file, it errors out at the <VirtualHost line also
Any idea why the Oracle HTTP Server wouldnt like <VirtualHost directives when running startssl?

Apex on linux - when and how to install http server

1. I installed 10g Release 2 Enterprise Edition on Vmware Linux on my laptop,
2. I pathced database to 10.2.03,
3. then I downloaded and installed Apex 3.0.1 on them.
I thought Http Server will be coming with Apex 3 installation, but I understand that I needed to install that one between the first and second steps?
So I can not be sure if I will ruin everything if I install Oracle Http Server from the companion cd as the fourth step?
Also I would be so glad to have a reference like dizwell installation guides for apex on linux if there is any, I couldn't find up to now :(
Thank you for your guidance.
Message was edited by:
FENERBAHCE
I started installer from companion cd, and choosed 10g companion products(not htmldb) option since http server is listed at the bottom.
Installation finished on a new Oracle home successfuly but I can not find the *.conf files or opmn/bin folder under this new Oracle Home.
I must be missing something :)

APEX from version 2.0 works in 2 modes:
1) using HTTP server, but in version 3.x is not installed within instalation of APEX
2) using XML DB feature - it must be installed within instalation standard Oracle -
(Oracle XML DB HTTP listener with the embeded PL/SQL gateway)
APEX 3.x you can launch over these links (port would be 8080)

Connecting to an Https Server via a Java class.

I have written a class that needs to make an HTTPS connection
to a Server.(Servlet called Receive_Https_Data).
For a test purpose I configured Tomcat with SSL,created a server
certificate,and imported this certificate in the jre/lib/security file,
so that we trick the client(ie the Java class) into accepting this certificate.
So now when I make an https connection from the Java class
,I send some data to this servlet and receive a response.
This works fine.
Now I need to send data over https to a Server which has a valid certificate
issued by a CA.
Now,how do I make my Java Class Client accept this certificate?
How do I import a valid certificate in the jre/lib/security file?
I am not a browser but a Java class.? Has anyone understood my question?
Attached is my Java class where in I am connecting to a dummy servlet over
https:
I am using jdk1.3 and Tomcat 3.2.4.
public class HttpsSender
private static String sURL="localhost";
This method is uses https to transfer data securely.
public static String ec(String sMess)
String response=null;
try {
Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs","com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol");

hpCon = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
hpCon.setSSLSocketFactory(sslSF);
}catch(Exception e){}
hpCon.setRequestMethod("POST");
hpCon.setDoOutput(true);
hpCon.setDoInput(true);

LDAP over SSL gives an error when testing connection in RPD

Hello all,
I got something strange. When I configure OBIEE to use an LDAP server (ADSI) it just works fine.
Now when I change the port number and check SSL and I check the connection again it says:
[53016] The IBM LDAP SSL (Secure Socket Layer) client library initialization failed: Reason: Bad keyfile password
But now when I log on to OBIEE with an AD user it just works...
Anyone with the same problem/issue?

You have not followed the instructions I gave. As I've said in previous
posts, the way you've got this template configured is never going to work
as it is configured to build the subject information from AD and one of the
attributes being included in the Subject Alternative Name is the DNS. Since
you're using a user account to request the certificate when it attempts to
build the subject alternative name it is trying to add the user's DNS name.
A user account does not have a DNS name.
I would suggest that you delete any custom templates you've already created
and start over again. As per one of my previous posts:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625722%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
Follow the instructions in the Using the Certificate Enrollment wizard with

Sql developer closes when testing connection

I have windows 7 64 bit, but, also have ms office 32 bit, so, do need the 32 bit drivers.
If my path starts with the location of the 32 bit drivers and I test my oracle connection in sql developer with the oci thick driver checked, I get the error stating can't use the 32 bit drivers with a 64 bit machine (Status : Failure -Test failed: C:\app\32BitDrivers\product\11.2.0\client_3\ocijdbc11.dll: Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform).
If the thick driver is unchecked, I get:
Status : Failure -Test failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
I believe this is due to this database being set up to use something like a name validation server(?), because I can connect to another database that does not have that special authentication.
If I have the path set to the 64 bit driver, sql developer will close when I try to test the connection with either the oci thick driver checked or un-checked (and testing either of the 2 databases).
any ideas?
sql developer Version 3.2.20.09
jdk1.6.0_45 (came in the d/l with sql developer)
oracle 11gR2
sqlplus does connect to both databases
Happen to have toad and was finally able to get it to connect to both databases.
oh, btw, is the 32 bit driver sqora32.dll?
what would the 64 bit driver be named?
thanks,
Alan

So, checking what java is running:
C:\>java -version
java version "1.7.0_21"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_21-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.21-b01, mixed mode)
However, I have C:\oracle\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf showing
SetJavaHome C:\oracle\sqldeveloper\jdk1.6.0_45
Also, I thought that the loading 32 bit on 64 bit system message meant that sql developer was 64 bit. Does it matter is sql dev is 64 or 32 bit and how do I tell which it is?
Also, there is a log file that shows up in the sql dev bin folder that matches the time when the program closes, like hs_err_pid12380.log. It's showing:
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x000000006d9fd904, pid=13208, tid=8988
# JRE version: 6.0_45-b06
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (20.45-b01 mixed mode windows-amd64 compressed oops)
# Problematic frame:
# V [jvm.dll+0x11d904]
So, appears that it is using the version specified in the .conf file. However, not seeing useful info in the log file, probably cause there's so much there.
thanks
When I try to get it to use the 64 bit driver, sql developer just closes. So, not sure if I'm actually pointing to the right location or what.

Test connection of target data server

Hi All,
Is there any command we can put in package which will test the connection to target datastore.
Same thing we are able to do in Topology Manager with test button of Dataserver.
What we want if the connection is o.k then only our interface should executes.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Sandeep,
Write a small procedure to test the JDBC connection to the Target (DEST) server using the following.
java.sql.Connection sourceConnection = odiRef.getJDBCConnection("DEST");
java.sql.Statement s = sourceConnection.createStatement();
For reference refer the following url.

Does these two problems connected? What can we do in order to solve it?Hi. The problems are not directly related, but may have the same cause.
Something is killing your DBMS connections out from under the driver.
Do you have a firewall between WLS and the DBMS, or a flakey network?
Contact BEA support to get the 8.1sp2 patch for getting meaningful
connection leak traces (CR209251_81sp2.jar). When that patch is installed
the leak messages should show a full stack trace of the application code
where the connection was obtained. It is that application code that
somehow failed to close the pool connection, causing a pool leak. I
suspect that the application code got an unexpected exception, such as
when/if the DBMS/network/firewall killed a connection. In this case I
believe the application went through an exception-handling path that
forgot to close the connection.

Error when testing connection from EP6.0 to ERP/2004

Hi this is Omar Poueriet and my case is the following:
Recently I finished to installed an EP60 SP19 based on Java+ABAP addin and everytime and then I logged on my EP system and define the corresponding settings for:
Connector property
User Management property
WAS property
ITS property
with their corresponding values at each stage, now everytime I try to test the connection in order to see that everything has gone fine, an error message is displayed at every defined connections, meaning the following:
"HTTP/S connection failed. Make sure the protocol, host name, and user mapping are correctly defined."
Please if any of you GURU's has any idea of what's going on this case, feedback ASAP, because I have some pendient task to complete based on EPortal 6.0 and ERP/2004 and that's STOPPED by the moment.
Awaiting for your feedback shortly,

Don't worry if the connection tests fail. It is better to create an iView that uses the system and see if that works...

IE unable to connect to Oracle HTTP Server v10.1.2 with SSL

Hi,
I configured OHS with SSL to run APEX applications.
This configuration can be run from Mozilla browsers and Opera, but not from Internet Explorer.
I suspect that IE doesn't support 256-bit encryption, as both browser above support it. So I set several combination of SSL Cipher Suite in ssl.conf. I also set IE to use TLS v1, SSLv2, and SSLv3. But this doesn't show any results. I also found that several sites which has 256 bit encryption (read the information from Mozilla and Opera browser) can also be opened by IE (read as 128 bit encryption). So I guess the encryption is not the problem, and I move on to the Apache error_log files.
What I found from Apache's error_log.xxxx is
[error] mod_ossl: SSL call to NZ function nzos_Handshake failed with error 29014 (server ---.---.com:4443, client --.--.--.--)
[error] mod_ossl: Unknown error
[error] mod_ossl: SSL call to NZ function nzos_Handshake failed with error 28864 (server ---.---.com:4443, client --.--.--.--)
[error] mod_ossl: SSL IO error [Hint: the client stop the connection unexpectedly]
So I looked in the Metalink and found Note:312041.1 and applied patch 4960210 and restart the server. But now it wouldn't start at all, despite that all configuration files were not changed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Aulia Bismar

You can use any PKCS#12 file with OHS if it includes the complete private key and certificate chain. With Oracle Wallet Manager (owm) you could also create a private key, import it, import the CA certificate as trusted certificate, create a certificate request for the private key, get the certificate response from the CA and import this.
If you use an unsual CA, ie cacert.org, you must import the CA root certificate as a trusted server certificate for IE.

Please help! Error when testing connection, (-111) Unable to access SBO-Com

Hi everyone,
I have set up and installed the integration component on a customers site because they would like to use the dashboards and mobile solutions.
I set up a company in the SLD but I cannot get the connection to work, i only get the following message

I have used the ip-adress instead of logical names.
I cannot figure out whats wrong, I have been searching for hours..
Any ideas??

You have to install Integration tool first and then the DB. Try this , via sql take all the companies offline and refresh your SAP B1 login. The companies will not be visible. Restart integration services. Make the companies Online.
In the SAP DB change the B1i password. It should be same as the B1i admin password.
Go to SLD, change B1user password.
Logout
Refresh Integration service.
Check the SLD connection.

"Unauthorized Host" error when you try to connect to the admin server

"Unauthorized Host" error when you try to connect to the admin server

If you see this error message when you try to connect to a Netscape

Here is how to solve the problem and gain access. First you should
temporarily open access to all sites, and then once you make sure that
this lets you get into your administration server, try again to set up
the domain name or IP address access restrictions you want.
For all 2.x/3.x Netscape servers on Windows NT and Unix, or for Commerce and
Communications servers (1.x) on Unix:
<OL>
<LI>Open the "ns-admin.conf" file with a text editor. You can
find this file in the "admserv" directory under your Netscape
server root. The directory is named "admin-serv" in 3.x servers.
<LI>Delete the "Hosts" and "Addresses" lines you see there (either one
of them might not be present). Don't confuse the "Addresses" line,
which you should delete, with the "Address" line, which you should NOT
delete.
<LI>Save the file, then restart your administration server (on Unix run
"stop-admin" then "start-admin"; on Windows NT go into the Services

"Unauthorized Host" error when you try to connect to the admin server

If you see this error message when you try to connect to a Netscape
administration server:
Internal Error
The administration server was unable to fulfill your request.
Reason: Unauthorized host
--------------------------
Here is how to solve the problem and gain access. First you should
temporarily open access to all sites, and then once you make sure that
this lets you get into your administration server, try again to set up
the domain name or IP address access restrictions you want.
For all 2.x/3.x Netscape servers on Windows NT and Unix, or for Commerce and
Communications servers (1.x) on Unix:
<OL>
<LI>Open the "ns-admin.conf" file with a text editor. You can
find this file in the "admserv" directory under your Netscape
server root. The directory is named "admin-serv" in 3.x servers.
<LI>Delete the "Hosts" and "Addresses" lines you see there (either one
of them might not be present). Don't confuse the "Addresses" line,
which you should delete, with the "Address" line, which you should NOT
delete.
<LI>Save the file, then restart your administration server (on Unix run
"stop-admin" then "start-admin"; on Windows NT go into the Services
control panel and stop/start the "Netscape Admin Server" service).
