Middle Tier Solaris OS version

We are encountering a strong push to migrate to Solaris 10 for our product line. Your Middle Tier installation instructions stipulate Solaris 8 or 9. Can we use Solaris 10? Are there any issues related to the use of Solaris 10? When will you certify against Solaris 10?

We are not ceritified on this, mostly with 10.1.2 Phase2 you may get this cerified as base AppServer needs to certify.
ps: i don't think there will be any major issues with this.

Confused about Middle Tier Version

Could someone clarify the version of NCPL.NLM that should be running when
using the Middle Tier function of Zenworks 6.5: ZEN6.5 SP2 IR1.. Should
you always have the NetWare SP version regardless or do you want to stick
with the latest ZENworks provided version? Here is why I am confused:
NCPL.NLM from NetWare 6.5 SP6 - June 19, 2006
NCPL.NLM from ZFD 6.5SP2 - July 21, 2005
NCPL.NLM from ZFD6.5SP2IR1 - May 22, 2006
NCPL.NLM from NetWare 6.5 SP7 - Not sure, still downloading - interested
to see the version included here.
We have a NW6.5 SP6 server, currently getting abends (NcplSysThread shows
up with a spinlock abend)... Server currently has the NCPL.NLM dated May
22, 2006.

Oracle forms 10g (win Xp middle tier IE 8 Win 7- IE 8 client)

forms services 10.1.2.0.2
Database 11gR2 also on Win Xp pro SP3
Hi
I have a problem with java and Jinitiator and my understanding of what is / should be happening.
In the file forms/server/formsweb.cfg see below. I can alter the parameter
baseHTMLjinitiator=basejini.htm
###baseHTMLjinitiator=basejpi.htm
between the two alternatives. As it stands as shown the IE8 on the middle tier and on the database PC both work as near correctly as i can tell. On the Win 7 client IE 8 however crashes. switch it to the other way around and the
win 7 works and the win xp on the database server stops with frm-92095 error version number too low. while on the middle tier Xp PC a blank doucument is displayed.
How can i have both working at the same time please. I you need more information i will happily supply it.

# formsweb.cfg defines parameter values used by the FormsServlet (frmservlet)
# This section defines the Default settings. Any of them may be overridden in the
# following Named Configuration sections. If they are not overridden, then the

# The default settings comprise two types of parameters: System parameters,

# Parameters which are not marked as System parameters are User parameters.
# SYSTEM PARAMETERS
# These have fixed names and give information required by the Forms

You have a mixture of problems here.
1. Oracle Jinitiator is not supported for use on Windows 7
2. JRE 1.7 is not supported for use with any version of Forms on any platform. Be sure you do not have this version installed.
3. JRE 1.6 is not supported for use with Forms 10.1.2.0.2, however is supported with 10.1.2.3 (10.1.2.0.2 + patch ID 5983622) and only with IE 8
4. In order to use Win 7 with Forms 10 in a certified and supported manner, you must use 10.1.2.3 (meaning 10.1.2.0.2 + patch ID 5983622).
In short, my recommendation would be the following:
o Patch to 10.1.2.3 (assuming you have access to MyOracleSupport)
o Don't bother trying to use Oracle Jinitiator as it is old and has been desupported for a long time.
o Uninstall any instances of Jinitiator as it can cause conflicts with other JRE installations.
o Uninstall all instances of JRE 1.7. Reconfig your formsweb.cfg to use the JRE (Java Plugin) 1.6.0

How to install Oracle BPEL Process Manager for OracleAS Middle Tier

hi,
i need to install BPEL process manager, so i download the following file from otn
1.soa_windows_x86_101310_disk1
2.soa_windows_x86_bpel_101310
here i read the document named b28980.pdf from bpel\doc\pc.1012 to install BPEL PM
so i start to complete the pre-installation task
1.installed Oracle database 10g
2.Run the Integration Repository Creation Assistant on the Database
3.Install Oracle Application Server 10g Release3 (10.1.3.1.0) and select either the J2EE Server installation type or the J2EE and Web Server installation type. selected J2EE and Web Server installation type
and installed according to the Oracle application server installation guide.
installed OracleAS in the path : D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1
4.Install the current release of Oracle BPEL Process Manager for OracleAS Middle Tier
here they mention to select the J2EE and Web Server installation type because that type is selected in Oracle AS installed in Oracle Application Server
so i start to install the BPEL PM by selecting the setup.exe-->and shows the location source and destination
default destination is : D:\product\10.1.3.1\OraBPEL_1 selected next on the screen
the next screen is select installation type here there are two types named
1.BPEL process Manager for Developer (371MB)
2.BPEL process manager for Oracle AS Middle tier (107MB)
i selected 2.BPEL process manager for Oracle AS Middle tier (107MB) and click next
pop up window opens with title dependencies
error:
BPEL Process manager for oracle AS Middle tier will run on top of a supported Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1.0 J2EE server and Web Server Or J2EE server instance. this location does not contain this instance. Please select new Oracle home that contains a supported instance.
so i changed the destination path to : D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\BIN then also i got the same error.
please any one mention the path for J2EE and Web Server instance for installing the BPEL PM for Oracle AS Middle Tier.
Thanks in Advance
Aswath Thaniga

If you choose the developer version you will be fine.
If you have installed J2EE and Web Server installation into D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1 then this is the location you install your BPEL PM into, not D:\product\10.1.3.1\OraBPEL_1 or D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\BIN.
D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1 is what we call the ORACLE_HOME, generally we create a new home for each install, but in this case there is a dependency on 10.1.3.1 OC4J container. So it needs to be installed into 10.1.3.1 oracle home.
The bin directory is just the executables for that home, its not the actual. home.

Connection timed out when accessing BPEL middle tier

I'm having fits over communicating with a Solaris middle tier PM from the PC JDev during construction, build, and deploy time and just can't make this out. I get a 'connect timed out' message immediately when a reference to the Solaris middle tier PM is made from JDev. Here are some particulars:
1. Connection from JDev and Middle Tier PM test successfully.
2. If I make no reference to the JDev middle tier process and I build and deploy a simple process successfully. It will also test okay.
3. If I try to use the simple process deployed on the Middle Tier PM as a partner link, when I attempt to browse the process when adding the partner link I get the 'Connect timed out' message immediately.
4. If I try to use a schema deployed to the xmllib I get the 'Connect Timed out' message when I attempt to build the process using the schema. (I can pull the same schema up in a browser on the Middle Tier PM).
Why does JDev complain that the connection timed out?
I am using 10.1.2 GA on both JDev and Middle Tier PM (deployed on top of Oracle AS).

I discovered a pilot error. Nevermind. I transposed some IP characters in my jdev.conf file for the non-proxy hosts.

Errors Upgrading 904 Middle Tier to 10.1.2.0.2 on AIX

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade our 9.0.4.1 AS Middle Tier on an AIX host to version 10.1.2.0.2. The plan is to eventually get to AS 10.1.2.3.
I successfully created a new 10.1.2.0.2 Middle Tier home for the upgrade, and kicked off the Oracle AS Upgrade Assistant -GUI Version- to start the upgrade.
Everything else looks okay except that the Oracle Containers for J2EE component failed during Examination. I see "*ADMN-705002*" error in the iasua.log file. All other components passed the Examination.
It does not look like we are having any compliance issues identified in the "4.5.1.3 Reasons for Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE Upgrade and Deployment Failures" section of the Upgrade and Compatibility Guide.
Has anyone perfomed a similar upgrade from version 9.0.4.1 to version 10.1.2.*? Did you encounter a similar problem during your upgrade? If so, what was the resolution?
What other pitfalls can you warn me about since I still have an upgrade of the corresponding Infrastructure to perform after the middle tier upgrade?
Plus we have in the plans a Portal 10.1.4 upgrade before the AS 10.1.2.3 patch. With respect to that, do we have to have our Infrastructure upgrade to 10.1.2.0.2 complete before upgrading Portal to 10.1.4?
Or can we upgrade Portal to 10.1.4 with a 10.1.2.0.2 Middle Tier and a 9.0.4.1 Infrastructure?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Oracle helped me figure the problem out. The ORA_NLS33 env variable had to be unset before starting up the Upgrade Assistant.
After that upgrade assistant finished successfully.

Question about shutting down the middle tier while leaving the DB up

Hi,
We just successfully upgraded 11.5.10.2 from running on 9.2.0.8 SOLARIS SPARC 32-bit to 11.2.0.1 SOLARIS SPARC 64-bit.
I am in the process of rewriting the backup scripts. We used to do a once-a-week backup (zip) of the middle tier directories,
after shutting down EVERYTHING cold (MT first, then DB listener, the DB). Our DB consultant likes hot-only backups of the
DB so we are going to keep the DB running all the time and always do hot backups from the DB, but keep MT cold backup.
We want to keep our MT cold backup so we retain our downtime window that users expect (Saturday night - Sun morning).
So my question is ---- is there any issue with shutting down the entire MT- only (adstpall.sh) -- but leaving the DB up?
When I do a adstrtal (via my script) the next morning--- everything should just start fine with no DB bonce having been done, right?
In the past, once I have the MT down, wait 5 min, kill any stray FND processes, I usually go on to bounce the database
"for good measure". I am 99% sure that I don't have to do this... and that there is no harm in "not" doing this, just need
some confirmation.
MH
One more piece of information - Our concurrent managers shut down cleanly almost all of the time without putting jobs on hold.
We don't have many users (< 60) and while we do have autoinvoice that runs every 5 min, I haven't had to do a big bounce
with cmclean.sql very often-- only about once or twice a year when users lock each others tables and the cleanest fix is to bounce
everything --very rarely.

I think something wrong in portal metadata installed by RepCA. What is the name of "Version table"? Can I use original (imported from "new database repository") part of portal schema?
Thanks in advance,
Wit.

btw,
google:// and metalink:// brings no hits for solution or even mention of problem (forums:// too as always :c/), so I've try to:
1. Install MT BI software on Machine B (ignoring opca errors done OK).
2. Install Infrastructure metadata repository at Machine C (db v90150 done OK).
3. Implement the metalink://note.276688.1 (in process, report follows).
btw2,
JAVA$CLASS$MD5$TABLE is only table absent in RepCA's portal schema (in comparing with usual way installation). Treated it as a "version table" by opca?

Oracle application server middle tier not starting

I installed oracle 10g application server( version 10.1.2) in windows 2003 server.
In the same machine we have infrastucture and middle tier installed.
last 6 months it is working fine.
now i stop all from ias console to stop the middle tier.
in the ias console page it is showing all component is down.
Now when i click on start all it is giving error "all components are already started."
But in the ias console page all component are showing down.
Now if i give stop all then it is showing error all component already stop.
Please let me know where is the problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Partha

You have Infrastructure and middle tier is running in the same box. please consider the below steps.
Because middle tiers depend on OracleAS Infrastructure services, you need to ensure that the OracleAS Infrastructure services are started first, followed by middle-tier services. You can do this in the following ways:
1.Give the OracleAS Infrastructure an Oracle home name that alphabetically comes before the middle-tier name. (When you restart a computer, Windows typically starts up services in alphabetical order.) For example: name the OracleAS Infrastructure "Infra", and name the middle tier "J2EE".
2.Edit the registry (using the Registry Editor) to delay the start of the middle-tier services by setting up dependencies between the OracleAS Infrastructure and middle-tier services. You do this after installing both OracleAS Infrastructure and middle tier. See Section 16.6, "Service Dependencies" for details.

How to install/upgrade Ultrasearch for AS Middle Tier 10.1.2.0.2? DB 9208.

Hi,
I am trying to understand the Ultrasearch from the point of view of my 10.1.2.0.2 middle tier. Here is my environment:
Our Metadata Repository and Portal Repository (Customer) databases are version 9.2.0.8. Recently patched to 9.2.0.8 from 9.2.0.7.
Our Infrastructure & Middle Tiers have been recently upgraded to version 10.1.2.0.2 from version 9.0.4.1.
Both the repository databases and the Infra and Mid tiers have their own Oracle Homes.
From what I read, Ultrasearch is installed by default with an Oracle Database. It is also available with Oracle Application Server.
With the version of Ultrasearch coming with our 10.1.2.0.2 AS being a later version than the one that came with the Database, I am trying to figure out how to install the correct Ultrasearch in our Customer (or Metadata ?) database.
The iasua.log from our middle tier upgrade says:

But during the Metadata Repository Upgrade using MRUA, I saw the following error:
============================================================================
Calling upgrade plugin for ULTRASEARCH
Error: Component upgrade failed ULTRASEARCH
============================================================================
I can connect to the Ultrasearch Admin tool from the Application Server Console middle tier => portal page, and I see there that the version is 10.1.0.4.2. Ultrasearch has never been setup previously with our 904 environment. I see the WK_TEST default instance there that I can navigate around. My question is, how do I check and confirm that Ultrasearch has been installed correctly for my Application Server?
If I have to install a new version of Ultrasearch, what are the installation steps? Does Ultrasearch always use the Metadata repository database? Or can it be configured to use a customer database? I don't see a WKSYS schema in our Portal database. WKSYS exists only in our MR database.
As per the APP_REGISTRY in our MR database, the Ultrasearch component is version 9.2.0.8.0 and is INVALID.
I believe that Ultrasearch was an option prior to 10.1.2+ releases, but is required with the recent releases. Correct me if I am wrong.
I think Ultrasearch is installed for our AS environment. I don't know if it is valid.
Any help would be appreciated. I just need to confirm that I am good to go, to proceed and upgrade our Portal to version 10.1.4.
Thanks.

Figured out that Ultrasearch was installed as a part of the Middle Tier install and was upgraded successfully during the Middle Tier upgrade.
Thanks.

Is this OIM 11g R2?? if yes have you configured the security store as mentioned in the doc while installing
OIM 11gR2 - Where is the OES Console?

Has anyone installed CM SDK into 9iAS rel2 90201 middle tier?

Hi all,
I have to install CM SDK into 9iAS rel2 90201 on solaris. We have a functioning environment (middle tier and infrastructure on the same machine). Has anyone done this? Any problems? Gotchas?
Thanks in advance!
Tracie

Installed CM SDK into 9iAS 2 and Oracle 9i on the same machine (not using Infrastructure). Had problems with CM SDk configuration. Finally setup the server, but cannot figure out how to login as a regular user. Looked all over for the user guide and found none existing.

OIM Middle tier upgrade - Failed at OIMUpgrade.bat

I am currently upgrading OIM 11g R1(11.1.1.7.0) to 11g R2 (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/doc.1112/e28183/oim_up.htm#BABCHFGD) in windows 64 bit environment. I have successfully upgraded my Middleware Home(OIM_HOME) using 11g R2 installer. I have also upgraded the schema (OIM to 11.1.2.0 and MDS to 11.1.1.7.0) using Patch Set Assistant. When I am trying to upgrade Middle tier using OIMUpgrade.bat , I am getting following error,

Novell Client patch kills authentication to middle tier

Hi,
There was a recent patch for the novell client which replaces the file nicm.sys due to a security vulnerability. When I install this patch onto servers which have the Zenworks Middle Tier software installed it prevents the client machines from authenticating to edirectory via the middle tier servers.
Once I put the old vulnerable nicm.sys file back then the authentication begins working again.
I've had dig around to see if any one else is experiencing this problem but I haven't found anything.
Any suggestions on how I might fix this. I would ideally like to resolve this as I don't like my servers being vulnerable.
Thanks in advanced
Liz

You can install a server that only has Middle-Tier.
The rest of the stuff requires the client IIRC.
If you have upgrade protection, you may be able to test with a ZDM7 SP1 IR3
version of the middle-tier.
The problem is that Novell is no longer patching/testing against ZDM6.5, so
even if there was a code issue, its not likely you could get a fix.

Change middle-tier IP/Host

I've just installed middle-tier version 10.1.4. My computer have have 2 network interface: one is *192.168.1.2*(LAN address) and the other is *172.16.64.2*(VPN address). I want people on VPN can access to portal builder page via address *172.16.64.2*. However, the entire links of this page are point to the LAN address(i.e 192.168.1.2).
Is there any solution to change from LAN addr to VPN addr? or can we change such that it will point to a domain name instead of a specific ip address.
I've tried this manual but no luck
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13995/host.htm#CIHHDFBF

You can set up a virtual host entry for the VPN address. Pending on which URL your end users would use, they would either access the Portal through the LAN interface or through the VPN interface, pending your network topology. Setup of a virtual host is documented in the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/portal.1014/b19305/cg_advnc.htm#sthref363]Portal Administrators Guide.
A few points to make about this however :
<li>I would imagine there are easier solutions. You can resolve the Portal URL to either 192.168.1.2 or 172.16.64.2 pending on which network your client would be connected. I am no DNS expert but this should be doable.
<li>I would not use my Portal server as gateway for both LAN and VPN access. If you would use a dedicated server for this, you could have your Portal running on a single LAN address. This would surely make it easier to administrate your Portal
<li>You have installed Portal 10.1.4 recently. This version will be desupported by Oracle on December 31st, 2011. Do you still want to go live with a version which is about to be desupported?
Thanks,
EJ
