Integration of custom identity services with JDeveloper BPEL designer

Hi,
I'd like to know if a custom user repository plugin will cause the 'Identity Lookup Dialog' (Step 6 of Human Workflow Wizard to generate a user task) to utilize the list of users and groups from a third party provider, when used as the Custom Identity Service provider.
I'd like to have the custom list of users and groups at 'design time' of the BPEL process itself, as well as process runtime. Is this possible?
This is with respect to both BPEL PM v10.2.0.2 and v 10.1.3.1.0.
Regards,
Vineet

ok, thank you for the reply.
But the installation of the Oracle BPEL Process Manger for Developers which includes the JDeveloper and the BPEL Designer doesn't come with 10.1.3.1.0?
I have to install the JDeveloper and the BPEL Process Manager seperate?
Thx

User Task: Custom Identity Service

Hi my friends
Have anyone tried to use a custom Identity Service with BPEL User Tasks (I meam other than LDAP or JAZN)? Problems? Issues? Limitations?
I know I have to implement a set of interfaces (BPMIdentityService interface and others)...
Thanks.

Pablo;
I just read your post and hearing that you have the basic methods working has me very interested - I implemented all the Interfaces (BPMIdentityService, BPMProvider, BPMUser, BPMRole, BPMGroup) and changed the is_config.xml file. My realm showed up, and the connection pool I'm using seemed to work just fine, but when I tried to setup a Human Workflow using the new realm, I get an error on my searchUsers method (just hardcoded).
I read that you need to add your classes to the application.xml file and that makes sense - but when I add them, no realms show up at all - one step backward - AND the method still doesn't work.
Could you spare a desperate developer some advice on how you got yours working - a brief description of how to register your classes, if there's more than adding them to application.xml would be wonderful!
Cheers -

Custom Identity Service for BPEL

Hi
Has anyone created a Custom Identity Service for BPEL workflow authentication.
Please reply back.
Thanks
Mudassar

Is there a document somewhere that actually describes how to add the plugin to the Process Manager Identity Service? More specifically, requirements for packaging up the plugin module, which folder to place the module in, ALL of the configuration files that need to be updated, etc.?
So far documents such as the BPEL Developers Guide, BPEL Process Manager Administrator's Guide, and various online sources have been moderately helpful but it seems like there are a lot of missing details as to actually getting a custom Identity Service plugin module working.

Simple Custom Identity Service running on windows OK, but not on linux, y?

In <Oracle® BPEL Process Manager Developer's Guide 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
B14448-03>,
Part III, 16<Oracle BPEL Process Manager Workflow
Services, Identity Service, Creating a Custom Identity Service Plug-in>
My pc, OS:windows 2003+BPEL PM Server10.1.2
Server, OS:linux+ias+OC4J_BPEL, i can't make sure the version, may be:10.1.2
In the Developer's Guide say:
Identity Service has 3 provider:
1, JAZN Provider
2,Third-party LDAP Directories
3,CUSTOM Repository LDAP-Based Plug-ins
so i like the third one.
1, i compile the project in Oracle_Home\integration\orabpel\samples\hw\isplugin\db.
Then it create a jar file(IS-DBPlugin.jar) in Oracle_Home\integration\orabpel\system\services\lib
2,Modify the provider config file: is_config.xml
modify the config file: application.xml
restart the Oracle BPEL server
3,run the sql files it provider int the polsql.cmd
OK, now the Identity Service work on Oracle lite database, it's my needs.
add a user into the tables
use the url:http://localhost:9700/integration/worklistapp/Login
i can login the worklist service use my custom user and password.
when the Identity Service use the JAZN Provider(XML), it's default choice.i add a user into the xml files, i mast restart my server if i want use the user login.
use the database plugin,when i insert a user name into the tables,i can login the service use the username immediately.
So i think it's easy to move it to my server(linux os). but when i copy the jar file to the folder,modify the config files,run ths sql files in the oracle database.
but when i open the url :http://server_ip:port/integration/worklistapp/Login
it can not work with a simple error message:Worklist service Identity Service error.
in the log files i find some message like this :
SOAP-ENV:Server.Exception
BPEL-10551 can not load the Custom Identity Service Class:
"IdentityServiceCustomPlugin.CustomIdentityService"
it has wasted me one week time. and i can't find the reason now.
who can help me ?
thanks
cnboy

clemens,thanks.
i'm sorry that my English is poor.so i can't understand you mean completely.
you say it might be a linux jvm reason, can the metter be resolved?
and you say extract the jar file .which files i would extract,can you say particular?
thx!

Replacement of Custom Identity Service in 11g

Hi,
I have several BPEL processes (10.1.2) with workflow and have been using Custom Identity Service (configuring is_config.xml) which talks to my database for user and groups etc. What is the mechanism for this in 11g now that is_config.xml is gone?
Any documentation will be great.
Thanks in advance.
Bipul.

I have been able to successfully implement a custom identity service (pulls users from an Oracle DB). I can select it from the SOA Worklist Application realm drop down and log in with my users.
I'm wondering, however, if there is a way to mimic this behavior from the BPEL Console and/or from a Java program that utilizes the Worklist APIs. From the BPEL Console, I can initiate my process with no problem but in the Audit trail, it complains about the task not being assigned to a user in the "jazn.com" realm. (That's because the user is defined in my Custom Realm.)
In my Java application, although I created a workflowContext by passing in the name of my custom realm, I get the same error mentioned above.
I ended up having to change the default realm in my local server's is_config.xml from jazn to my Custom Realm. Is there a way to specify what realm to use for each process without having to change the default each time?

Issue in setting custom identity service for soa 11.1.1.4

Hello,
I am facing issue in setting custom identity service for soa 11.1.1.4
It is not picking up the implemented UserManager (in custom IDM) implemented via ServiceProvider and IdentityStoreService.
This is configured in jps-config.xml
The same setup was working in soa 11.1.1.2
I believe there is a change done in JpsProvider in bpm-service.jar to authenticate via default login context from oracle.security.jps.internal.jaas.module.authentication.JpsUserAuthenticationLoginModule
If my uderstanding is correct,
Please guide me in implementing custom identity store and services for bpm services for soa 11.1.1.4
Tried various work arounds but no luck.
Thanks
Bala

Hi...
Can u tell me how did u set up custom identity service for 11.1.1.2 ?

Debugging a Web service with JDeveloper 902

However, after deploying a Web service, even its screen output is hidden.

JDeveloper BPEL Designer Tool: Transformation Question

Hello,
I am prototyping a small web service orchestration demo.
I have 3 Schema Elements - Request, IndividualResponse, and CombinedResponse
I invoke 3 web service invocations in parallel - each of which takes a Request and returns an IndividualResponse
I need to populate a single CombinedResponse with the contents of the 3 IndividualResponses.
When I try a transformation node (to map an IndividualResponse to a CombinedReponse), the IndividualResponses overwrite each other's information in a single node within the CombinedResponse. I want the contents of the IndividualResponses to go into separate nodes within the CombinedResponse.
Any ideas on how to do this in the Oracle JDeveloper BPEL Designer Tool?
Thanks!
-SN

Transformation by definition converts one xml format to another. What you need to do is perform multiple assigns to copy the individual responses to the combined response.

Does Oracle BPEL process manager ships jdeveloper bpel designer

I had downloaded Oracle bpel process manager and installed on my desktop but I am unable to find jdeveloper bpel designer shiped with process manager.
Could any one update me regarding the same

Hi,
Follow the steps which I have mentioned.If you want to start with BPEL you can do either of the two things.
1) If you are interested in only BPEL then download and install BPEL server from oracle site. For coding you need to have Jdeveloper.
or
2) If you want to use all the components of SOA then download version 10.1.3.1 and install SOA suite. Apply Patch to upgrade version to 10.1.3.3.
After installation of server, download Jdeveloper 10g and Unzip the file to use it.
Hope I clarified your doubt.
Cheers,

JDeveloper BPEL Designer Extension Points?

I'm wondering if there's any way to extend JDeveloper BPEL Designer? I know there's something for Eclipse - see for example http://eclipse.org/proposals/bpel-designer/main.html :
"Extension Points The project should be architected as a set of plug-ins, each of which provides the ability for other groups or vendors to further extend and customize the functionality in a well-defined manner. Here is a list of possible extension points that it may provide:
Runtime environment pairing (Validation, Compilation, Deployment)
Addition of specific functions
Extensions to BPEL palette definition
BPEL element extensions and visual tool contributions"

We are currently working on making the BPEL Designer extensible so as to allow for new activities, wizards, etc to be written by customers and partners. Is this what you are looking for? If so, this functionality is planned for 2006 and should apply to both thre Eclipse and JDev BPEL Designer plug-ins.
Regarding source code, we are not planning to make source code available to the JDeveloper BPEL Designer plug-in, though we have proposed to open source our Eclipse BPEL Designer and co-lead that project with IBM (as you may have seen).
If you are asking a different question than either of these, drop me an email or you also may want to post to the OTN BPEL forum:

Custom Identity Service - E-Business Suite

Hi
Just wondering if anyone has looked into creating a custom BPEL Identity Service Plug-in for E-Business Suite?
I'm not sure if we need to do this yet for a client, but if anyone had tried it would be great to here about any issues you came across or whether you got it to work....
Any help greatly appreciated.
Chris

The easiest integration with DB repository is to use Oracle Virtual Directory ( OVD) database adapter.
You can write custom Plug-ins code using IdentityService APIs for 10.1.2 and 10.1.3 releases.
But we deprecated the approach and recommend to use OVD for customization for 11 release.
I have tested OVD with BPEL IdentityService LDAP provider. It works well even for 10.1. release.
That approach simplifies the mapping between LDAP inetOrgPerson and groupOfUnuiqueNames objectClasses and DB schema.
I can help you with OVD configuration.

Web services with JDeveloper - serialization error

Dear all,
I have an issue with web services created with JDeveloper 10.1.3.2.0.
Namely, this is what I do:
1. I've created some TopLink classes from tables; one of this classes is called Task (and it's located in a package called "integration")
2. I've created another class, called Integration, where I use these TopLink classes; in this new class I have a method called getTasksStatus, which returns an ArrayList containing Task objects
3. I've created a web service from this class (Integration) by right-clicking on the class name in Applications Navigator and choosing Create J2EE Web Service.
When I call the method getTasksStatus from the test web service (endpoint),
I get this error:
Oct 8, 2007 7:14:30 PM oracle.webservices.service
SEVERE: serialization error: no serializer is registered for (class integration.Task, null) serialization error: no serializer is registered for (class integration.Task, null)
When I call a method which returns a primitive type, everything is fine.
I understand the problem, but I don't know a solution yet. Could you please help ?
Thank you,
Best regards,
Sorin

One solution to this problem is to make sure that the complex type you are using in yous service interface do implement the JAVA Bean as per the spec (at least Oracle's interpretation of it).
You need to have getter/setter for all members and you need to have an empty ctor() to create new instances of your objects. In some cases, the design time let you get by, but the runtime fails in the code generation.
In your case, the 'Task' class may have some issue.
Hope it helps,

Integration of Webcenter Discussion service with ADF Application

Hi,
I'm in the process of integrating the Webcenter Discussion service in an ADF Application.
I have completed the following steps.
1. Installed JDeveloper 11g and Webcenter 11g.
2. Configured the Discussion server which was installed along with Webcenter 11g.
3. Integrated Discussions with ADF Application by creating a Discussion connection.
The ADF Application is running fine. But the forums are displaying empty. In the Discussion server, I'm unable to create new users and there are no options to create forums and to create threads.
Help me in getting the below things,
1. Where we can create forums?
2. What settings we need to make for new forums and where to do those settings?
3. Are there any settings to create new users as i have only one default user 'weblogic'? When i create new users from Discussion server, I'm getting the message as 'Create users not supported'.

Hope you are using WC_Collaborations managed server to manage all discussion forum activites.
For you requirement ,you need to navigate the following url:
http://<server address>:<WC_collaboration port>/owc_discussions/admin
it will take you to jive forum admin page .where you can create new forums and new users also. For user and groups management ,visit -
http://docs.jivesoftware.com/latest/documentation/forums-admin-guide.html#users_groups
In your application , all users are coming from weblogic server's embedded LDAP or from external LDAP(if you configure so ). there also you can create user.
I have a doubt ,regarding your application.
Are you using only ADF application ,or webcenter application.
for displaying discussion forum ,you need webcenter discussion forums taskflows in your page .
If you use only ADF application,then you need to add all the forum corresponding libraries in your application otherwise need to consult with oracle support.
