Installing applications mode eul on non-applications database

I have two systems...my 11i erp system and an oracle based data warehouse. I would like to use my existing erp system security model on the warehouse. To do this, I would like to set up an applications mode EUL on the warehouse and replicate my user and responsibility tables from the erp system. The problem is that I don't know specifically which tables Disco Administrator version looks for when it sets up the applications mode eul (beside fnd_user and fnd_responsibility).
Has anybody ever succesfully done this? If so, what tables did you replicate?

Scott,
This will be difficult to do successfully. Discoverer uses the fnd_global package to make a connection to an apps mode EUL. Therefore this package (and all its many dependencies) must be present and working on your data warehouse. I would suggest that you initially replicate all the Applications tables. Once the security is up and running on the data warehouse system you could probably just replicate fnd_user, fnd_responsibility and wf_load_user_roles to add any new users and responsibilities.
Hope that helps,
Rod West

Run Form in HTTPS or SSL mode without installing Application Server

Hi all,
I have installed Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Developer suite 10g in my PC (Window XP). Now I want to implement SSL or running forms in HTTPS mode instead HTTP and I don't want to install Application server.
Any workaround is there to run Forms in HTTPS mode without installing Application server.
Thanks,
Omer

Performance issue? How old is your hardware? I am running OAS 10.1.2.3 on a Server 2003 VM which basically consumes 512MB RAM and ludicrous amounts of CPU/IO.
In any case: as said if you want to test SSL in a real life scenario then enabling SSL in OC4J is not what you want to do. In production the configuration is completely different, as there you would configure Apache to run your forms via SSL.
What comes to my mind would be to install Apache 1.3 (this would be the version OAS 10.1.2 uses), configure mod_oc4j there and configure it with SSL. On the other hand this also isn't the configuration you have in production so this also is not exacly what you want.
If you want to verify if your forms application will run via SSL then most certainly it will run without changing your sources. The only things you might have to change would be if you do HTTP Requests from the database to your application server via utl_http or from the client to the application server via java beans or via the java importer.
But for tests I'd strongly recommend doing it via an application server installation, and not via developer suite.
cheers

Always install applications into non-global zones?

I am planning on taking full advantage of Containers and Zones as I migrate servers and applications to Solaris 10. During this migration process, I believe that I will have a need to initially just run just one application on a server. I fear that if I do this in the global zone I will lose flexibility down the road for future projects and workloads. So, should I consider always installing applications in a non-global zone and never install applications in the global zone? This would keep the global zone as the controller of the non-global zones and ensure that I can always add more non-global zones later without having to worry about what is running in the global zone.
Are there any thoughts or comments on this topic?

Yes we've found it's best to run the applications in non-global zones. Here are a few benefits, basically we only put an application in the global zone if it requires it (like Oracle RAC). Note non-RAC instances of Oracle will run in a non-global zone just fine.
Reasons to put applications in non-global zones
o Increased security (self contained environment)
o Increased flexibility for provisioning resources (CPU, memory, etc) when/if we decide to run multiple applications on the same hardware
o Increased flexibility in starting up temporary environments to debug issues in parallel to the primary environment (i.e. in another non-global zone on the same server)
o Works well with Sun Cluster (i.e. we cluster the non-global zones so that they can run across several hosts)
o Improved trouble shooting and performance diagnosis as the applications are isolated to a non-global zone
o Simplified environment for the application admins as the environment can be fine tuned for their needs (i.e. only let them see what they need)
o Disaster recovery is much faster for a non-global zone

I have CS4 installed on two computers however none of the applications will now open on one machine and I get the error message 150:30

Your best bet is probably to start over by cleaning off the old software with the Adobe Cleaner tool:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then reinstall from your original media, or download it here:

After Installing Application Server - Problem connecting to my Databases

I have 10g installed on my Windows server, and have no problems connecting to my database(s). After I install Application Server 10g, I am no longer able to connect to any of them, as if the TNSNAMES.ORA file is no longer configured correctly. I am training myself on these applications. Anyone have any suggestions what is happening behind the scenes?
Thank you,
Daniel Nadler

After deploying a jsf application via the web interface of the application server enterprise manager I tried to connect to the 10g database - and it failed with the same error as yesterday?
I really don't unterstand what is going on. I would really appreciate it if someone could point me out where to start digging for a solution / unterstanding of the problem.
Quoting this thread (installing db on same server as AS): 10gAS and Database Server on the same machine
>
Yes, you can do this. Here are some guidelines:
(1) Make sure your system requirements are sufficient to handle the application server and the database. The recommendation is to add the AS system requirements and the DB system requirements together.
(2) Install each product into its own Oracle home. For example:
- Oracle Home 1: AS Mid-tier
- Oracle Home 2: AS Infrastructure (including Metadata Repository)
- Oracle Home 3: Database
(3) If your AS installation includes a Metadata Repository, make sure that the
Metadata Repository and the database use a different SID and global db name.
(4) It is possible that the Metadata Repository and the database can share
port 1521. Review this information before you start your AS installation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/win.1012/install.1012/install/reqs.htm#CIHEBFDG
The installation guide under (4) tells me that I don't have to worry since I use a new listener version.
To complete the confusion: on my virtual test machine oracle 10g and oracle AS 10g work fine side by side?? Perhaps because I did a Standard Edition install of the database (on the real machine I used Enterprise Edition)? Is there a way to figure out what kind of install I did?
Lots of questions, any help or links are really appreciated! Thanks in advance!
------------------ EDIT -------------------
Whoops, I might had a problem with a not correctly shut down database (just shutted windows down without killing the instance - didn't know this wasn't ok). Still evaluating the issue. But to say the least, it seems the application server has nothing to do with my problem :)

Install Application - TextArea inside JScrollPane

I've been working on an install application to install another one of my programs (next/accept/next/ finish type of thing) and had a couple questions and would appreciate any help anyone can give.
Some Background info:
I made images and have them display as image icons through jlabels for the buttons and background. The labels have classes applying various mouselisteners (Mousepressed, MouseEntered, MouseExited, etc) changing the images and moving from screen to screen. I have my layout set to null, not for any particular reason, but because I have no formal education in layout managers.
1) Is there a conical solution to moving through various windows? That is, right now I move through the various 'screens' with a check on an int called state, that gets incremented and decremented through forward and back buttons. I looked at some code given to us on a test by our teacher (we had to find bugs) and saw that he had implemented a fake "state" interface, with constants like "Account_State" to control where you were in the program. This seems a bit easier to read than ints, but is there a correct built in version of his states?
2) On the second screen I have a license agreement (actually required for the application that gets installed), and a checkbox. The license is held inside of a JTextArea(scroll) inside a JScrollPane(textscroll). The JScrollPane is extending in weird ways. The following is a stripped down version of my code (it runs and demonstrates the problem):

}Sorry about all the text for the agreement. I've tried a number of different things I got from searching the forums at different points in the code (setting the number of rows/columns, setting max and min sizes, etc etc) The code above that wraps the text I could have sworn I tried 3 times before it magically worked... I also tried using the awt component for textareas that had the scrollbars built in, but scrapped it after having even more difficulties with that one. I'm trying to get the textbox to only go down about 300 px and 300 px to the right. Using the graphical editor to change it produces a null pointer error at compile time(?!?). Can anyone help me to get the textbox to render as I want it to?

Hi Ravi
Glad to hear you solved this. It is very gratifying when one solves it alone, don't you think?
Best wishes

Linux installing applications requires root password.

Can anyone explain to me why it is that on Linux, Air
requires a root password to install an application even if the
installation directory is specified as somewhere within my own home
directory?
That it asks for a root password under such circumstances
seems very wrong. The application files are being written to my
home directory, I don't need to be root to write there and I do not
want files being created in my home directory with root as the
owner, as Air does when it installs an application.
Asking for the root password also means that users who have a
Linux machine that is administered for them by someone else and do
not have root are unable to install Air applications themselves
even if the administrator has installed Air on their
machine.

First of all, on behalf of myself (and anyone else who has
been wondering about this particular detail of Adobe AIR) let me
thank you for your helpful reply. This does still leave me with a
couple of questions, however...

AIR applications are similar to regular native applications -
they install as native rpm/deb packages. This requires access to
the rpm/deb system database (e.g. rpm database lock). And this is
required even if the installation folder is chosen to be one that
is owned by the current non-root user. In addition, with root
privileges, it's also possible to install applications to a
location that is accessible to other users on the system.
I have confirmed for myself the accuracy of this information
and I thank you for pointing it out. While this does make some
sense on the surface, it does leave me wondering something about
the security level of this install process. When I install
applications from my Linux distribution's package sources, I have
GPG (or PGP) cryptographic key signatures ensuring that all the
packages are un-altered from their original form on the
distribution's package servers, and a team of programmers assuring
me that the code of these packages are (at least somewhat) safe as
far as they are able to tell. I am thus far unable to find
information leading me to believe that there is similar assurance
that I am not willingly installing unknown malware (keystroke
logger, spyware, etc.) disguised as a desktop widget (for example)
when installing Adobe AIR applications. As a code savvy user, I can
personally download and examine the code of many AIR apps to ensure
their safety myself before installing, but what about users who
understand code as well as they understand Martian language or
ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs? Is there any assurance process in
place for the average user similar to that of native distro
packages? If so, can anyone point me to where that is discussed on
the Adobe pages?
Also, as an aside note; root privileges are not technically
REQUIRED in order to install an RPM package in a location which the
user already has write access to, as I personally have on many
occasions installed source code packages (SRPM) from my
distribution's package manager in my home folder while logged in as
a normal user (without the use of 'su' or 'sudo' or such) for the
purpose of building newer versions of the RPM packages which they
correspond to.

However, do note that when they are launched, AIR
applications run with the privileges of the user launching the
application and not root. The primary executables of AIR
applications (under the bin/ folder in the installation path) do
not have the setuid bit set. You should not be worried about AIR
applications running with root privileges, based on the fact that
their installation required superuser access - the two are
completely independent.
This does still go back to the original point about the
security of the code itself which is being installed in the first
place. What quality assurance process is in place (beyond the star
ratings system on the application showcase site) to ensure that
malware was not installed (as root) and then happily being run by
all the users of a system while blissfully unaware of the capture
of their passwords or other personal information? (Again, an
example, and not the only such possible worry.) If such an
assurance system
is already in place, where can I (and other AIR users) read
more about it?
The reasons for this concern should be obvious when one
considers that a malicious application does not necessarily need to
be run as root to still do a great deal of damage on a system and a
sufficiently sneaky malware application could possibly even
obtain root privileges once installed on a system through
some other privilege escalation exploit. As an administrator of
multiple systems and networks, I have to be cautious about which
applications I allow on to a system or network for this very
reason.
Please be aware that I am not making these points and asking
these questions to be a "troublemaker" or to shoot down the
achievements of the AIR team, or Adobe. To the contrary, I am very
impressed by the technology that I've seen so far and would
very much like to see AIR become and stay a genuinely useful
part of the web ecosystem on all platforms. As a matter of fact,
I'm personally reading a few different resources currently about
how to develop AIR applications in anticipation of satisfactory
answers to my few remaining concerns about AIR security worries. ;)
P.S.: If this forum was the wrong place to be discussing
these specific types of issues and concerns, please feel free to
point me toward a better place where such things should be better
covered and where like-minded individuals and groups might either
continue the discussion or resolve / close this concern entirely.
An IRC channel where AIR devs hang out maybe, or perhaps another
Adobe forum where security concerns are discussed, etc.? :)
Anyhow, sorry about the long rambling post. Thank you to
Ashutosh Sharma for your initial reply to this thread, and thank
you in advance to whoever may reply further and bring final
resolution to any remaining worries I and others may have regarding
these and similar potential security concerns. :)

Installing Applications - Permissions Question/Problem

Hi All:
I have tried a number of searches and found variations on this, but was wondering why permissions get modified when I perform drag and drop installations of applications.
When I use an installer to install applications such as iWork, iLife, Office, and Creative Suite, and so on the permissions are always listed as system then admin then everyone, with system and admin being read/write and everyone being read only. In this situation, everything works perfectly. However, when I drag and drop to install applications such as Bento, most shareware, the permissions are listed as my user, then staff or admin, then everyone. Sometimes the staff and admin are listed read only and then the icon does not show up until I manually change this to read/write.
I have also noticed another problem when I am running in my limited access (none admin) mode: When I tried to install a NEW drag and drop application it would ask for a username and password and then install as described in the previous paragraph, but when I tried to install an UPGRADE to an application I had, it would ask me to authenticate. When I clicked authenticate it would go straight to the replace dialog and then when I click replace button it would fail. In the process of failing it would damage the application that was already installed. As a result I would then need to manually remove the damaged application and drop the upgrade back in to the folder, at which it would correctly ask for the username and password.
Something is wrong here. As a none admin user I should not be able to damage applications when prevented from installing them.
I've tried the usual permission fixes, but there must be something that is not quite right. I have even tried a reinstall.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

this is normal and what you describe is exactly how it should work. when an app uses an installer it runs as root and the installer manages permissions on files it creates. they are always owned by root (=system in Finder GUI). when you install something by drag and drop then the application is owned by you and the group listed is your primary group which is staff.
I have also noticed another problem when I am running in my limited access (none admin) mode: When I tried to install a NEW drag and drop application it would ask for a username and password and then install as described in the previous paragraph, but when I tried to install an UPGRADE to an application I had, it would ask me to authenticate.

I don't know what exactly happened here but I'm guessing you tried to upgrade an application that was installed by a different user originally. that might create permissions problems. but since all such apps are installed by drag and drop you can always trash the old app and install the updated one by drag and drop. that will always work (you'll have to authenticate of course).
I've tried the usual permission fixes, but there must be something that is not quite right.
repair permissions will not touch any 3rd party apps or files so it will have zero effect on this issue.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Prerequisiteinstaller.exe error - unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role

Windows Server 2012 R2 running on Hyper-V VM. File services, App server & IIS roles installed
SQL Server 2012 installed
Tried:
kb 2765260 method 1 which is kb 2771431 which ends with "not applicable to computer"
kb 2765260 method 2 with no effect (this was power shell commands for PC's connected to the internet)
One post suggested "aspnet_regii - enable -i" but my OS doesn't have aspnet_regii on it (not sure what that implies)
One post suggested ServerManagerCmd.exe needed to be installed which sounds true as shown below (but where do I find this exe?)
There are some errors in the log file, I only included the portions where the errors are listed. The initial lines are at the top of the log file, then I skipped to the section where the other errors were. I can include the whole log if
it becomes necessary.

I'm presuming the first 2 errors are OK and just indicate optional startup modes for prerequisiteinstaller.exe
The 2nd set of errors seems more serious. I don't see ServerManagerCmd.exe on my PC that's listed in the error
I don't understand the last error which I'm supposing triggered the listed error even though there are other errors in the log.
Many of the existing posts don't match the configuration I'm using, and the ones that do match didn't seem to provide a usable answer. Any help is appreciated. Do these problems exist using Sever 2012 Standard? I will try that, but would
like to resolve the issue here with R2.
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Alan

ServerManagerCMD.exe is a deprecated utility and (as far as I know) is only found on Server 2008 versions, so I'm surprised it's needed for the preinstaller. Are you trying to install SharePoint 2010?
Running this page through Google Translate should give you an clearer idea on getting this installed.

Please help!!! I am going on 9 days now trying to install SharePoint 2013 onto a VM. I have tried Hyper-V and VMWare and am getting the same result with both.
Running Windows 8.1 with 16 GBs of RAM.
The pre-req installer will not install anything!! And I get this error:
The tool was unable to install Application
Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role
So I installed the Web Server IIS Role and restart... still no luck

Benefits of Installing Application Server in a Multiprocessor server !!

Hi,
I need to know if it is possible to install Application Server in a server with one processor. And, if that is possible I would like to know the benefits to install it in a multiprocessor environment.
Please consider that the database will be in another server that IS Multiprocessor.
Many thanks,
Mariela

Hi, Do you know where can I get this information?
Many thanks,

Installed application works fine for administrators, not for users - LV7.1.1

Hi,
Someone must have posted this before, but I can't find it anywhere after much searching of the knowlege base and user forums. Feel free to point me in the right direction...
I have an application that loads and plays a wav file, and applies a filter while playing it back. The user may select the filter being used from the control panel. Filtering is done in1/8 second chunks, so changes in the filter appear instantanious.
I'm using LabView 7.1.1 (i.e. 7.1 with the 7.1.1 maintainence release applied). Filters have been created with the Digital Filter Design tool in the Signal Processing toolset.
I have created an installer using the application builder in LabVIEW. The runtime engine is included in the installation, as are the filter files.
Once installed on a target machine the application works fine for anyone logged on with administrator rights/privileges. For anyone with user or guest privileges the filter either doesn't re-load or isn't applied to the wav file regardless of the user's efforts on the control panel.
The audio file is however loading and playing back.
This problem is seen on W2k, WinXP Pro SP1 and Win XP Pro SP2. I can't comment on other O/S, that's all I have available to test on.
This is tricky to debug, as in the installed application you can't view or step through the source code.
Your ideas and observations much appreciated.

You're right Sacha, it takes almost no time to rate an answer. Only 4* for you, as the info is interesting and relevant, but in this instance I wanted to stick with read only access. These filter files are an integral part of my application, and I certainly don't want users changing them .
A little further investigation has provided the ideal fix for my needs. Burrowing down into the Read DFD coefficients.vi provided in the signal processing toolset I found the files are opened for read & write. The mode isn't actually wired, so read & write is selected as it's the default. As Windows only allows read access in this location to those with user privileges the files won't open.
I now have a modified version of Read DFD coefficients.vi that has the files opened for read only (this has to be done in 2 places). I have tested this on Win2k and XP SP2, and it works exactly as I require. This is different to the user in your other thread Sacha, as they specifically want everyone to be able to write to their files.
Perhaps it's a question for the LV developers - should the Read DFD coefficients.vi be changed to only give read access? (assuming it hasn't been changed already in V8). I'm in no place to assess the impact on other users. As the .vi is only a read function, which opens the file, reads the coefficients and closes the file again I can't see how it would be a problem though - the write access isn't required.
Thanks to all for their help on this. Problem solved, and I'm a happy bunny . (Thinks - what about some bunny smilies on the forum?)

Downloading and installing Application Server 10g R3

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to download Oracle Application Server 10g R3 and when I open the Oracle link to choose the download option I notice that there's many options to choose. Where I have my Oracle database installed the operative system that I'm using is Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32 bit, so which option should I choose to download the Application Server? The one that says: Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.5.1) for WebLogic Server (10.3.1) or Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.x)?
After having the right application to install, where am I suppost to install Application Server 10g R3? In the same server where I have my Oracle database or should I use another server for this purpose?
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance!!

hi,
1st..check whether all the services of oracle are started in services.msc(if possible pls specify what all services of oracle can you see in services.msc)
2nd..when you use the command opmnctl startall..what errors do you get..
3rd..can you specify the opmn.logs and ons logs
Regards

I had the exact same problem on 11g. I tried several installs and cleaned up after each failed attempt...
I ended up installing 3.1 and then running the patch for 3.1.2 which seems to have worked.... the FULL install of 3.1.2 has some script errors and would NOT install "fresh".
I'm still having configuration issues though... XDB asks for a password, and then I get a URL doesn't exist ....
