Migration of Oracle Application Server

I want to migrate my Oracle application Server 10g 9.0.4 from RHEL 3.0 U4 to RHEL 3.0 U5. My oracle application server is running a portal application and it is also runnins as webserver. Since the existing setup has some performance issue i want to redeploy the applications again but portal users ( 600 + )created in the existing setup has to be migrated in the new setup.
Please give me some inputs in doing that...
Thanks,
CS

If anybody has any helpful info on this topic, I am looking for the same.... to migrate my Windows-based IAS installation to Linux instead.
There is a backup and recovery function built into the IAS Enterprise Manager, but I am uncertain if cross-platform restores are supported or not.

Migrating from Oracle Application Server or WebSphere to WebLogic Server

Does anyone know of any documentation about migrating applications from WebSphere 6.1 or OAS 10.1.3.3 to WebLogic 10.3tp? I found some old (circa 2005) documents, but I doubt they will help much.
Thanks,
Leona

Please refer to the following url:
http://www.sun.com/migration/sunonetools.html
This should give u a head start on what needs to be done and how,. WIth respect to webserver , i guess you can use it or leave it depending on the architecture you require to deploy your solution.
Hope this helps !

Migration from Oracle App Server 10.1.3.5 to WebLogic 12 - Expected issues?

Hi all,
the company I work for wants to migrate its Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.5 (with JRE 1.6) to WebLogic 12 and we need to guess which kind of remediation could be needed to have all web-apps still working.
The concerned applications are using dated technologies:
direct JDBC connections to db
JPA 1.0
connection pools with Oracle JDBC drivers
some apps are compiled with Java 1.4, some others with Java 1.6
servlet 2.3
JSP 2.0
We do not expect to come accross big issues but I'm not skilled on this kind of matters so I would like to receive seggestions or alerts from experts. Any remark will be appreciated.
Thank you all.
Regards,
Luca

Hi Luca,
It would be better if you asked this question in the Application Server forum which should be at this URL -
Application Server
and the general forum here -

Changes in webservices while migrating from Oracle App Server to WebLogic

Dear All,
I am developing webservices for a external users.
I am new to webservices.
We were using Oracle Application server to deploy the webservices.
The architecture was as mentioned below
1) A interface class
2) A Implementation class for the above interface class
Now we are planning to migrate from Oracle application server to Weblogic Application server.
I have few doubts about the migration,
1) Will there be any difference between Oracle specific WSDL and WSDL created by Weblogic ant build command
2) As our external parties are referring our SOAP requests ans responses for their implementation, i am concerned about the changes in the SOAP request and response formats. Will there be changes due to application server change?
Oracle app server - Oracle 10g application server version 9.0.4.0
Weblogic appl server - Weblogic application server version 10.3.0.0

Now after creating the WSDL by Weblogic workshop. The previous request XML is not working.
Can someone help soving the below query.
We are in process of upgrading the Oracle 10g application server version 9.0.4.0 to Weblogic application server version 10.3.0.0. In the old application server we were using axis specific jars to create the WSDL for the webservices. There are so many third party applications which are accessing our webservices, so we can not change the wsdl, clients accessiong the webservices and the corresponding formats of request and response xml messages. So we need to deploy the same wsdl and for the same we need to deploy axis on to weblogic 10.3. Can you please help us regarding the same.
Qns
1 - If we can deploy the axis on to the Weblogic 10.3
2 - Can we use the same WSDL in the Weblogic server too.
3 - If we use the same WSDL, will it help us to keep the client accessing the webservices, the request xml format, response XML format the same as it is with Oracle 10g application server case.
4 - Please share how to deploy axis on to the Weblogic 10.3 application server.
5 - Please share how we can create EARs that can be deployed on the webserver using axis specific jars.
Thanks and Regards
Manoj

Migrating from Weblogic to Oracle Application Server 10g

Hello,
To respond to this post you will need some basic familiarity with Weblogic.
I am currently using Weblogic Server 8.1.
I have an admin machine which is on its own physical hardware, and multiple managed servers. The admin server is a single point of management for all of the managed servers. Each managed server lies on it's own physical hardware and are managed remotely from the admin server.
Does Oracle Application Server have this type of architecture?
Lets say I have salesApp.ear and I want to deploy it across multiple physical machines, where would I administer the various physical machines from, and how would I create an instance on each machine?
Would it be an oc4j instance or an AS instance? What is the difference?

Forget about this!
You need a JEE5 server to work with 11g.
In theory you can develop application for OAS 10.1.3.1 but you must be very very careful which components you use. One new component and you are not able to run it on OAS 10.1.3.1
If you have to run your apps on OAS 10.1.3.1 stay with JDEV 10g.

Apex Listener vs. Oracle Application Server... advantages?

Are there advantages to installing Apex Listener over using an existing Oracle Application Server instance to serve Apex applications?
We have an existing application server instance in production. Would introducing Apex Listener and the extra overhead be of any advantage?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Hello "Portal Dude",
Are there advantages to installing Apex Listener over using an existing Oracle Application Server instance to serve Apex applications?APEX Listener introduces some additional features, such as Resource Templates, but lacks some others. Some people might want to migrate from OAS to another JEE Container that doesn't come along with a OHS/mod_plsql. Depending on the JEE Container, you could use AJP for load balancing, avoiding plain HTTP through a firewall, etc.
Would introducing Apex Listener and the extra overhead be of any advantage?The "extra overhead" may be smaller than you think. If you don't need the HTTP_Server component any longer, but can just deploy APEX Listener on the OC4J of your OAS, you might even save some bytes.
For several other aspects, there have been a few posts on that topic in the past:
{thread:id=1100122}
{thread:id=1555908}
{thread:id=1594158}
If there's anything you don't find in either the posts or the documentation, don't hesitate to ask.

Does Oracle Application Server (10.1.3.4.0) support JSF 1.2?

Sorry for the double post, but I realized this was more appropriate in the OC4J forum so posted it there. Not sure how to delete this one :-(.
I am trying to migrate from JSF 1.1 to JSF 1.2 on OC4j 10.1.3.4.0 and am running in to problems. I recently stumbled on this post:
http://kjvarga.blogspot.com/2008/12/oc4j-1013-does-not-support-jsf-12.html
Which reads as follows:
I spent a very frustrating day wading through the version soup that is JavaServer Faces and trying to deploy a JSF 1.2 app on on OC4J 10.1.3 container. To save you a lot of time, OC4J DOES NOT SUPPORT JSF 1.2.
This technical paper explains that OC4J 10.1.3 (all versions) supports Servlet 2.4, JSP 2.0 and JSF 1.1.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/oc4j/1013/whitepapers/OC4J-FOV-10131.pdf
And this handy webpage explains that "JSF 1.2 is the latest release and it works with servlet 2.5 and jsp 2.1". So obviously it's not compatible. It also details all the versions of Java technologies that each JSF version relies upon.
http://www.roseindia.net/jsf/jsf-versions.shtml
Is this true? I can't use the JSF spec released in 06 on the most current version of oracle application server? Could someone please confirm/deny/shed some light?
Thanks so much,
Yeuker

Found a bit more information located here:
http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=JavaServerFacesRI
See the section entitled
"Do I have to use a JSP 2.1/Servlet 2.5 container with the Mojarra version 1.2?" which states:
If you're using JSPs for your view descriptions, then yes, you will need to use a JSP 2.1/Servlet 2.5 compliant container. However, if you're using another view technology, such as Facelets or JSFTemplating, you can run JSF 1.2 within a Servlet 2.4 container with out issue.
Now here is the part that may make me look like a newb... not sure if I am "using JSP's for my view descriptions"... what does that mean anyway?
I dont think I am not using Facelets or JSFTemplating. I'm just using standard JSF... All of my pages end in jsp and the standard faces servlet that makes all *.faces requests go through the faces controller servlet. There is really no JSP EL code in my faces pages, just standard jsf tags h:form, f:selectItems, h:inputText etc...
So my question is... am I using JSP's for my view descriptions?

Oracle Application Server 10g/Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g

Hi folks, This question related to migration/upgrade of Oracle Application Server infrastructure.
I see that the Oracle has come up with Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g. Is it the next release of Oracle Application Server 10g. I have the following questions. Appreciate if any one can provide answers to the following questions. Please correct me if my understanding of these oracle products is not right! Thanks
1. What is the future of Oracle Application Server?
2. Is it Oracle Fusion Middleware(OFM) 11g is the upgrade path if one need
to upgrade?
3. Is it expected that expected that customers need(if require) to move to OFM 11g?
4. Does OFM 10g comes with Oracle Application Server? If not what does
it comes with?
5. If it does not, what about customers having applications built using oracle forms and reports? Does OFG 11g
support Oracle forms and reports?
I understand that OFM 10g comes with Oracle web logic server!
Thanks in advance.

To run Forms and Reports in Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g you have to use the distribution "Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer" in the FMW 11g software pack.
The structure of what we used to call "the application server" has changed a bit however, in the following way:
- In 11g you need to install the Javaserver WebLogic software (version 10.3.3 for the current Forms 11g version 11.1.1.3) first.
In 10g the installation of the Javaserver (OC4J) was part of the App server install.
Note that you just have to install the software, the configuration script for creating a Forms app server instance creates the WebLogic domain (comparable with the OC4J instance) for you.
- In 11g the Fusion Middleware software installation is separate from the creation of an application server instance.
This is more convenient and comparable to Oracle database and Weblogic installation.
- The Fusion Middleware Configuration script installs two parts of the product: 1. A WebLogic Domain. 2. A Fusion Middleware instance.
The first contains everything related to Java, such as the servlet configuration file (formsweb.cfg), while the latter contains everything that has less to do with the Javaserver
- No more Infrastructure server
The Infrastructure server does not exist anymore. If you want to use Single Sign On with Forms/Reports 11g you can install Identity Management 10.1.4.3 (or use Identity Management 11g, and configure separately the 10.1.4.3 Single Sign On) or keep your old 10g Infrastructure installation.
During installation you just have to specify you want to use OID and SSO and it configures out of the box.
Under normal circumstances the same licenses apply to 10g and 11g (as long as you do not use WebLogic for other purposes).

What is diff between oracle application server and weblogic server?

what is the exact difference between oracle application server and weblogic application server?

The difference between Oracle Application Server AND WebLogic Server has been discussed in a lot of forums dated 2008 and earlier comparing OAS10g with WebLogic10.0/WebLogic9.2
But, now since Oracle has taken over WebLogic, this is not really important.
Now, OAS has no further releases post 10g. WebLogic Server will be the Oracle's strategic application server going forward.
So, if your query is for choosing one of them for a new environment, you are better of with WebLogic Server 10.3.6 OR WebLogic Server 12g
As we will not have further releases of OAS and also OAS10g will be end of life soon, we recommend Oracle WebLogic Server.
If you still want to know the differences, here is one such old oracle documentation link that talks about it
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B10467_16/migrate.904/b10425/asmwl02.htm

Oracle Application Server 10g R2: Administration I

Can anyone comment on this class?
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/show_desc.redirect?dc=D18771
We probably should have someone on staff that understands the install & maintenance of the Application Server. I presume that just because we got an instance up and running doesn't mean there's nothing left to do, ever...correct?
Thank you.

Absolutely.
Oracle Application server is a sophiscated software that requires a good administrator to handle instances after creation. Day to day support and maintenance, troubleshooting, deploying new applications that are served by the application server, backup and recovery, clustering, upgradation, migration, cloning are all required.
So defenetly yes, there needs to be a dedicated resource for maintaining the Application Server. Typically this is a job function of "Oracle Apps DBA"

Oracle Application Server Release 4.0.8.1 on Windows 2000.

Can I install Oracle Application Server Release .0.8.1 on Windows 2000 ?

Hi Mohammed,
OAS 4.0.8.1 was never certified on W2K and is in fact a desupported version of OAS. I would strongly suggest migrating to the just released 9i Application Server v. 9.0.2.

How to integrate Oracle Portal running on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2

I have an Oracle Portal running on a Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.
Portal is responsible ( along with OID ) for the users authentication and authorization.
There is a new JEE application that was developed recently, which the Portal users must have access to.
HOW can I put a link into a page of the Portal, that redirects the portal user to a new browser window displaying my new application?
HOW can this new application, running in a separate weblogic 11g (10.3.5) server, automatically authenticate with the same username/password previously authenticated when the user logged into the portal?
Any ideas?
I´ve already thought in a bunch of ways to do it:
- put a link into the portal with a sessionId, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to use the same session. How can I configure this session id during the creation of the portal's page? How can I use it from the new app to use the same session?
- put a link into the portal with a userid, then when opening the new app, it automatically tries to authenticate using a different authentication provider configurated in WL, which points to Portal´s OID. In this situation, how can I ensure that the user is already logged in and the session has not timed out?
- Should I use OSSO?
- Should I use OAM?
Any help would be appreciated!
Murilo

Hi Murilo,
A portletized version of your J2EE app would probably have been ideal for your purpose as it would handle both authentication (through SSO) and session information (through Portal framework as the framework can pass session information to the provider/producer). This would require changes to the application however.
Easiest approach would be to use mod_osso to protect your J2EE application. SSO would then handle the authentication for your Portal and your J2EE application.
Thanks,
EJ

Developing for a Oracle Application Server with SSO

Hello there,
I'm developing an application (Java) that will be deployed as a partner application within an Oracle Application Server 10g at my client. This Oracle instance has a SSO already configured, and my app will use this Identity Manager (consuming the cookie). The problem is that at my company we don't have a SSO system configured, not even an Oracle Application Server, just a simple Oracle XE 10g to hold data. So I'm wondering how can I do to develop my application and test it.
I was looking forward to install an OAS and configure an SSO to validate my implementation, but the download link provided by Oracle is broken (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/index.html). Another alternative that I thought of was to install an OC4J and configure a Java SSO to simulate the behavior of OSSO, and make my app the cookie set by it. But OC4J supports only til Servlet 2.4 and my app is using 2.5...
And to complete, I cannot access my client's environment. I'm supposed to write a Deploying document telling him how to deploy my app and then try to access it through Internet.
Does anyone have an idea of how can I develop and test my app in my company's environment?
Thanks in advance,
Bruno Krebs.
