Is 10.1.4.3 Metadata Repository Certified With 10.1.4.1 IM installation?

We have IM 10.1.4.3 and OracleAS 10g R2 10.1.2.3 on RedHat 4.6 with non-colocated metadata repository.
Plan is to upgrade RedHat to newest version 5.5. RedHat does not support upgrade with major version and Oracle said that OS vendor is responsible for package compatibility and there is no need for relink Oracle software.
So, only solution is to do fresh install OS, IM and OracleAS.
My question: is it possible to install IM 10.1.4.1 against higher version of metadata repository? Is there any workaround?
tnx in advance

"# Error: Already exists" suggests that schema at AD side is already extended. You mentioned that automatic schema upload process stopped abruptly. There is likely chance that AD schema might be extended partially or fully.
2nd thing is you can apply BP05 patch once you have identity server running. BP05 does not need to be applied before.
Also there is option to manually extend schema directly in AD. There is one folder in installation directory which has .ldif files with schema objectclasses.
At the start of identity server , it is not able to find the configuration DN & seach base to read configuration data , therefore it is failing.
You have two options here: 1. Reinstall 2. Manually extend schema and then install identity server.

Problems Installing Oracle Metadata Repository into Existing Database

Folks,
I'm slowly going through the process of installing the Metadata Repository into a 10g database, using RepCA I've managed to determine all the DB parameters required for setting etc. The only thing RepCA now reports is missing is the Ultrasearch schema & packages.
I've copied the ultrasearch dirs from the RepCA distribution and placed them in my $ORACLE home dir, I've also attempted to run the admin install script 'wk0setup.sql' which throws out several errors listed below. If anyone has successfully gone through this process on Solaris I would love to hear your about your experience & advice.
Error 1. =================================================
User is WKSYS
... loading ultrasearch_db.jar
call sys.dbms_java.loadjava('-v -f -r -s -g PUBLIC $ORACLE_HOME/ultrasearch/lib/ultrasearch_db.jar', '((* wksys) (* public))')
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:

Hi guys,
I have used copy of that package from Oracle Identity Management installation, version 10.1.4.0.1 and have been able to complete manual Ultra Search installation. It's valid in dba_registry. After that I did run RepCA and metadata schemas have been created successfully in existing database, version 10.2.0.2. Be careful about database version, only 10.2.0.2 is certified with Oracle Identity management, so you need to run patch for upgrade to 10.2.0.2.
Hope this helps.

Error in Installing SSO Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (10.1.4.3.1)

I am trying to Install Portal Forms Reports 11, so I had to Install all prerequisites

Is there another newer Installation guide from oracle?
thank you

Good question, rozester.
I encountered this problem also, while trying to install the SSO MRCA 10.1.4.3.1 on 64-bit RHEL5 (though it's at version 5.7 but I'm positive that won't make any difference to the result).
This may or may not match your situation, but when I looked in the log file $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/repca/log/repca_<datestamp>.log, I saw what was probably the reason behind the error:
<$ORACLE_HOME>/bin/sqlplus: error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.9.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I think I remember seeing that the link operation during installation had failed, but I hoped it would be OK. And it possibly would have been, if I'd remembered to specify the destination database Oracle home rather than the SSO MRCA Oracle home when prompted (on the page where it asks for database home and log file path). Perhaps then it would have used the sqlplus binary from the database oracle home, and since that one definitely works, it might have worked. But before I thought of that, I did a workaround; I installed the SSO MRCA on a 32-bit RHEL5 box (using the same directory paths) and copied the shared library files to the 64-bit box's shared library directory via scp as follows:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib; scp -pr * oracle@rhel64box:$PWD/
When I re-ran $ORACLE_HOME/runRepca, it then worked without error. Another thing I could have tried is just running runRepca on the 32-bit RHEL5 box, and that probably would have worked too, but it probably would have been a lot slower compared to running it locally on the destination server; it's takes quite a while as it is.
Hope this helps. I'm sure it'll help me if next time I do this I forget what I did before and go searching again ;-)

Metadata Repository Creation Assistant fails with ORA-01119


Hi All,
My DB version is 10.1.0.2 and I've upgraded the same to
10.1.0.4.2
In order to install B2B, I started off by installing the
Metadata Repository Creation Assistant.
After the initial steps, I got the following message:
<h5>
OracleAS RepCA was not able to find the Oracle Text Supplied
Knowledge Base in the database specified. </h5>
<h5>If you are planning to use this repository for installing
OracleAS Portal, you have to install Oracle Text Supplied Knowledge Base.
Oracle Text Supplied Knowledge Base can be installed in the database using

<h5>
If you are not planning to use this repository for
installing OracleAS Portal, you may continue further. Continue? Yes/No?</h5>
I continued with "Yes" and I chose the storage option as
"Regular or Cluster File system". In the next step -<strong>Specify Tablespace
information</strong>, I chose to install it in the C:\ , where there was approx 18GB
of free space. Yet, I encountered the following error:
<h5>
Unable to create tablespace. Please see the OracleAS RepCA
log file for more details.</h5>
<h5>ORA-01119 error in creating database file 'string'</h5>
<h5>Cause: Insufficient space on device or invalid database file

<h5>a) Verify the database file path specified.</h5>
<h5>b) Decrease the size of the requested file or allocate a

space on the device.</h5>I have verified the database file path. I also tried
decreasing the size. I further tried using another directory where there was
11GB of free space. It still didn't work.
Please HELP!

Hi Suhas,
Can you please do the following?
1. Please try pointing to C:\b2b.dbf file during installation and see if the installation goes fine or not.

Grapbical Display of Metadata repository in SAP BW 7.31

Hi,
I am working on SAP BW 7.31 and couldnt find Graphical display of BI Content in Meta data repsository,
We have updraded to the Support pack level 04 and now I could see object details tab but when I click on it its shows
Service cannot be reached
What has happened?
URL call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available.
Note
The termination occurred in system with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden.
What can I do?Please select a valid URL.
HTTP 403 - Forbidden
Your SAP Internet Communication Framework Team
In general, object details shows network display of data flows? or is there anything I am missing apart from ICF.
Please let me know how this can be resloved...
Thanks in advance

Hello,
As of 7.30 the BW Metadata Repository has been designed as a WebDynpro Application. It can also run as an imbedded process in the Analytic Workbench (RSA1). Due to the nature of this technology
a separate login to the WebAS is needed to establish a Web-Session on the local WebAS. However if Single Sign On for the target system is activated the WebAS may be customized to use it as well. In this case you would see no login screen when calling the BW Metadata Repository. Please also note that also all relevant ICF-Services for BW must be active (i.e. all Web Document services) to be able to use the repository normally. Please find here some useful links to relevant ICF and ICM
documentation which might help you to properly set up your system:

Metadata Repository search doesn't work NW 2004

Hi all,
After system patching Metadata Repository search stoped working, when I start search short dump occurs
"Function parameter "PTEXT" is unknown.
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "CL_RSO_REPOSITORY=============CP" had to be
terminated because one of the statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
Function module "SUSR_INTERFACE_PROF" was called
with the parameter "PTEXT".
This parameter is not defined."
I tried to find SAP-notes, but was able to find about NW 2004s
NW 2004, Basis 6-40, BW 3.5, SP BW21, SP Basis21
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks in advance,
Elena

Hi Susanne,
unfortunately NO repository is indexed by default so therefore you can not find Room Content before you create an index with the relevant information.
You must create yourself a new index of the repository where Room Content is stored. In EP6 SP2 Patch 5 and higher as well as NW'04 this should be /room_extensions. So add this repository as the Data Source of the index.
After indexing you should be able to perform search of the room content.
Hope this helps,
Robert

Can OID/IM components be moved to a new Metadata Repository?

Hi
I've looked around on Metalink but can't find any document that suggests this can be done, but I thought I would ask the question anyway (two iin fact):
1. Can an existing OID/IM setup be configured so as to oint to a new metadata repository? Is it possible to install a new MR and then associate the IM components away from it's existing MR to a new MR?
2. In an OracleAS Cold Failover Cluster (IM) topology, I've read contradictory notes (or I've misunderstood). Do the OID and MR components have to be on the same box? Or can they be on different boxes?

Andy

How to include BC documentation in the metadata repository

Hi experts,
Currently, my bw 3.5 system doesn't display the business content documentation in the metadata repository, the one available in the help.sap.com sitie.
In the sap documentation is stated:
"To include SAP Content documentation in the online documentation generated for metadata objects, it must be installed in plain html http format for static help and using a Web server. The Content documentation can then be read by the Web server from any front end platform using the http protocol, and displayed in a Web browser.
You can find additional information about maintaining setting variants for online help (transaction SR13) in the Business Information Warehouse Implementation Guide (IMG), under the node General BW Settings ® Settings for Displaying SAP Content Documentation."
however I can figure out how to put the bc documentation in my metadata repository
I execute TC SR13, and has this entry in the PlainHtmlHttp tab:
ONLINE-EN WN32 IWBHELP http://help.sap.com saphelp_nw04/helpdata EN default is ON
I appreciate an step by step solution for my problem
thanks everybody

I dont know if theres a way to do that....
I think is not possibl because if you want to open the web pages of help.sap is requered that your SAP system would have http connection directly to internet and at least by a security issue no recommended.....
Use sap help in web....

Documents in MetaData repository

Hello All,
As part of our systemdocumentation we store technical documents in HTML format with BW objects, like InfoProvider, InfoObject etc. These documents are then visible in the metaData repository. Dose anyone know if it is possible to transport these documents across the system landscape or do we have to upload the documents in every seperate system (dev, QA and PRD) again?
Many thanks
Cerillo Smeets

Hi,
Using the function area Transport Connection in the Administrator Workbench, you can exchange metadata between different systems. You can find additional information under Exchanging Metadata in XMI Format.
Pls go through

Red error of a web template in Metadata Repository in TEST system

This red error only occurs on our test system (maybe related to transport). RSA1->Goto Metadata Repository page->Double Local objects under Activated objects in the middle frame -> Double click Web Template Name in the right frame, then can see two same lines of red errors (see below in between two dashed lines):
Object 'our_web_template_name' (our_web_template_name) of type 'Web Template Name' is not available in version 'A'
Message no. RSO252
Diagnosis
You wanted to generate an object with the name 'our_web_template_name' (in transport request our_web_template_name) of type 'Web Template Name' (TLOGO). This is, however, not available in the BW Repository database. It does not exist in the requested version A. If the version is 'D' then it is possible that an error arose during the delivery or installation. If the version is 'A' then the Object was either not created or not activated.
System response
The object was not taken into account in the next stage of processing.
What could cause the above red error in Metadata Repository how to correct it?
Thanks

For these requests can you check if they contained objects like:
BW: LOIO Class Web Templates
BW: PHIO Class Web Templates
See, even if the transport for a web template does not contain these, it is imported fine, but the web template will not function in the target system. This happens quite often and you need to make sure that the above objects are also included in the request.
Hope this helps...

Can I install Metadata Repository for 10.1.2.0.2 on Oracle 10.2.0 database

Does any one know if the Metadata Repository of OracleAS 10.1.2.0.2 can be install on an existing Oracle 10.2.0 database ?
The MRCA tool is giving me this message "Oracle Metadata Repository cannot be loaded into this version of the database. Please see the installation guide for more information on supported database versions ...."
Kim

According to the Installation Guide, Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.x) and Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.x) are supported. See the following for more specific information:

9.0.4.1 Metadata Repository in 9.2.0.6

I just upgraded my 9iAS infrastructure and mid tier with BI and Forms from 9.0.2.3 to 9.0.4.2. We had all the components on one server except we had a separate 9.2 db for our portal repository.
I want to know how to migrate my metadata repository to a different server and use database version 9.2.0.6. Are there any documents or specofic sections of documents which could guide me in this migration?

I am not familiar with the document you refer to, but suspect you should apply the 9.0.4.2 patch if you want to integreate OCS with a 10g portal.
I have successfully integrated a 9iAS portal with R2 OCS (9.0.4.1), and the following details may be worth a closer look:
1. To my knowledge, the passwords for your portal user and SSO user (orasso) are encrypted and stored in OID based on the hostname and IP address of your SSO server. Thus, the password for orasso and portal will differ between your portal Infra and your OCS infra, resulting in that only one of the two will work properly with your common OID. run the attached script on both your SSO servers and compare the result:
#!/bin/ksh
OIDHOST=antares1.i2sp.no
OIDPORT=4032
echo "Enter the desired Oracle schema name (default orasso): \c"
READ DBUSERNAME
if [[ -z $DBUSERNAME ]]; then
echo "No schema value entered, using default:orasso"
DBUSERNAME=orasso
fi8
echo "Enter the password of the cn=orcladmin user (usually the ias installation password): \c"
stty -echo
read OIDPW
ty echo
echo "Looking up schema password from $OIDHOST:$OIDPORT"
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/ldapsearch -h $OIDHOST -p $OIDPORT -D "cn=orcladmin" -w "$OIDPW" -b "cn=IAS Infrastructure Databases,cn=IAS,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" -s sub "orclResourceName=$DBUSERNAME" orclpasswordattribute
Setting the password for orasso and portal to the same encrypted string is a good start. If they differ, change to the same encrypted string using "alter user orasso identified by xxxxxx" in sqlplus.
Hope this will help you on the way :-)

OAS 10g metadata repository creation assistant & database version issue

Hi,
I have to install Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 on a server which already has an Oracle database 11g running on it and I dont want to install another database due to the load factor. I am not sure if I could use that database
(version 11g) for the metadata repository. I know that we can use an existing database for the creation of metadata repository using the metadata creation assistant but I am a bit worried about the version of the database which is 11g whereas the application server and the metadata creation assistant both are 10.1.2.x.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Cheers,
Omer

MRCA 10.1.2.0.2 cannot be used to install a repository in an 11g database. If you want to use MRCA 10.1.2.0.2 with an 11g database, you will need to install a 10g database first, create the metadata repository and then upgrade the database to 11g. Not applicable in your environment as you already have a 11g database.

EJ
