OID Installation Questions pertaining to integration with EBS 11.5.10.2

Our Environment is E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 and we want to investigate/view OID/SSO in action. Ultimately, we'll attempt to use Microsoft Active Directory as the source (of truth). I had performed OID/SSO integration with EBS about 3 years ago and remember the "overall" scheme, but Oracle's documentation/downloads page has left me thoroughly confused, hence, I am asking those that have been through the process .... THANKS IN ADVANCE
(1) Do I need to install the base AS 10g Infrastructure and Metadata Repository via 10.1.2.0.2 installation or can I go directly to installing OID 10.1.4.0.1 ??
Here is what I believe the steps to be, PLEASE, correct me if I am wrong ...
(1) Install 10.1.2.0.2 Application Server Infrastructure by selecting "Infrastructure and Metadata Repository"
(2) Install 10.1.4.0.1 and select to upgrade an existing 10.1.2.0.2 installation. Once 10.1.4.0.1 has upgraded everything, including the database to 10.1.0.5, I assume that I can simply remove 10.1.2.0.2 through the Oracle Installer. Is this correct ??
(3) Once upgrade to 10.1.4.0.1, I believe that I need to download a Metadata Upgrade Assistant patch, (mrua), and run mrua,sh to upgrade MR to 10.1.4.0.1 which will be apparent by querying app_registry view.
(4) Upgrade 10.1.4.0.1 to 10.1.4.3
The documentation is confusing and hard to find for me. Do these steps seem to accomplish the tasks or am I missing something ??
THANKS IN ADVANCE

I didn't do the install myself but we went straight to installing 10.1.4 Identity Manangement, although I believe that Infrastructure components which underly it are essentially the same as 10.1.2. As far as I know you can't use 10.1.3 because it lacks those infrastucture components.

APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 - no SSO

I am trying to complete APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 in simplest way. I have a non authenticated report page that I need to link to through a menu and function on one of the existing forms.
Rod West document
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf
offers the jsp approach which I like to implement however the jsp will not compile correctly and I am not sure why - I have already fond one error with the code as listed in the document:
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp ' retry ---> will not work
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp' retry --> will work
compile will fail starting at this point of the code:
PARALLEL COMPILATION: 1
[10389] !!COMPILATION ERROR(0) LaunchApex.jsp:
_LaunchApex.java:70: illegal start of type
if (ctx==null) {

has anyone tried this approach and got the jsp to compile with no errors or can you see what is it?
thanks in advance.

Hello Mini:
thanks for the info and I have followed the steps as listed. I am not sure what line is the bad code you listed is on - here is the copy of the jsp I am working with and maybe you can point to a specfic line(s) that need to be changed from what to what.

Discoverer integration with EBS R12 !!!

Hello Sir,
I need help to install/integrate Discoverer with R12.
Actually, our clients are using Discoverer 4i in current EBS 11.5.10.2 in production. We have just upgraded EBS in TEST environment from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3.
I had suggested client that Discoverer 4i is actually de-supported and they need to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 10.1.2.3 or higher to integrate it with R12.1.3.
Now, client also have requirement for Discoverer to be certified with MS Excel 2010 format. So I have suggested to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 11.1.1.4.
Latest certified Discoverer version is 11.1.1.7.0 as per note Using Discoverer 11.1.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 1074326.1)
1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
2) Do I need to first install separate 10gAS for installing Discoverer 10.1.2.3 or Fusion middleware home for installing Discoverer 11g ? If yes, where can I find doc for this installation ?
3) Since 10g support has ended July 2013, where can I get media for installing 10gAS ?
4) Is there any additional licences required for using either Discoverer 10g or Discoverer 11g ?

1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
In addition to the doc you have, please see:

Running Discoverer Reports From EBS R12 (Doc ID 1516784.1)
R12: How to Create a Link to a Discoverer Workbook (Doc ID 471303.1)
2) Do I need to first install separate 10gAS for installing Discoverer 10.1.2.3 or Fusion middleware home for installing Discoverer 11g ? If yes, where can I find doc for this installation ?
Installation Recommendations - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
Installer Screens - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0)
3) Since 10g support has ended July 2013, where can I get media for installing 10gAS ?
You can download WebLogic 10.3.6 from WebLogic Server 12c (12.1.1), WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.6) and Previous Releases
4) Is there any additional licences required for using either Discoverer 10g or Discoverer 11g ?

User authentication when OBIEE is integrated with EBS

Hello guys
I have a conceptual question about how OBIEE authentication is performed in an integrated environment with EBS? If the goal is to have users access to OBIEE based on their roles given in EBS, what kind of authentication is it needed for such implementation?
Do I import users and group from EBS database or LDAP server (if its available)? what kind of session variable and ini block is created if I want to do data level secuirty based on user groups?
Please give some basic idea and guidelines on topic
Thank you very much

hi,
the final solution must face and fill your needs....
Bi suite has 3 ways of making-having user-groups...
1.manual
2.ldap
3.from external database
If the goal is to have users access to OBIEE based on their roles given in EBS, what kind of authentication is it needed for such implementation?
-->match the roles from EBS to your liked in OBIEE
check and this,

OBIEE 11G authentication integration with EBS 11 - is it possible?

Hi experts,
My OBIEE 11.1.1.5 is installed on Linux 64 bit machine.
I've thoroughly performed all the action listed in the guide, but I'm getting the famous 'You are not logged in' message.
Has anybody succeeded to enable security integration between OBIEE 11 and EBS 11?
Thanks in advance,
Alex

Hi Deva,
Thanks for your reply.
I've heard from some people that there's a bug in OBIEE 11.1.1.5 that prevents integration of OBIEE 11 security with EBS 11.
I'm trying to find anyone who actually succeeded to get the thing done.
I used the DeliverBI document as well as the official guide.
Is there any way to "debug" my settings? How can I know - what's wrong?
Thanks,
Alex

Apex Integration with EBS R12 - javax.servlet.ServletException

Morning,
We are in the process of upgrading from 11i to R12 and we have found that our method of launching Apex in 11i no longer works in R12. We are trying to follow the following instructions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf and have created a .jsp file and compiled as per the document. When we try to launch the function from apps though we get:
An exception occured.

The missing class is not available from any code-source or loader in the system.I've XXX'ed out our domain. Has anyone else has this, or can anyone who has successfully integrated apex with EBS R12 let me know what they did?
Thanks

Hi,
If the jsp compiled successfully then you may need to bounce your web server before the jsp can be used. See MOS Note 458338.1 for more details.
Actually, now that Oracle have updated their FND Gateway for Apex integration there are only a few situations (such as if you want to pass parameters from the form function to Apex) where you need to use a custom jsp to launch Apex. In most cases you can use the Oracle supplied GWY.jsp to launch your Apex Page. To use this jsp you must apply the EBS R12 patch 12316083 (and patch 12726556 if you are launching from the forms navigator). How to use the GWY.jsp is described in "Extending Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 using Oracle Application Express" white paper.

OFR integration with EBS and UCM

Hi All,
We are implementing the following modules from Oracle Content Management to one of our Client, the following are the configurations we need :
Configure and deploy Oracle Forms Recognition (OFR) 10GR3
Configure the Oracle Adopter for integration of OFR with EBS
Configure the Adopter for integration of OFR with Oracle UCM content server
I really like to have any technical design document on integrations front, especially from OFR -> EBS, OFR -> UCM and also UCM -> EBS.
Any pointers for the same is well appreciated.

Help needed in Apex Integration with EBS

Hi All,
Currently, when trying to integrate with EBS these are the steps I followed.
1) Created apex generate hash and apex launch procedure in APPS DB.
2) Created Profile in Application Developer Responsibility.
3) Saved above profile in system administrator -->Profile -> System and set the site level as http://<hostname>:<Apex port>/pls/apex
4) Created a function in system administrator , type as SSWA plsql function and called the launch procedure and passed parameters as my apex application and page id.
5) Created a Web PL/SQL entry under System Administrator Responsibility -> Security -> Web PL/SQL for the launch procedure.
6) Created menu, responsibility and assigned to the user.
For the APEX application , currently I have not given any login page. The login is through EBS only. I have given logout URL in apex application to EBS Login page. Now my problem is , when I click Logout the session of EBS does not get invalidated. How can I achieve this ?
Secondly, When I give the APEX application URL directly in the browser it will open without asking for the EBS login credential. But I do not want this to happen. I need it to be authenticated through EBS login credential.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
Alaka

Hi Scott,
I tried the solution given in this URL.
http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2008/11/oracle-application-express.html
It is not working for me.. I tried in the forum also.
While creating authentication scheme I gave Oracle EBS Login Page as Session Not Valid URL. But every time I login to EBS and click responsibility then menu which has APEX screen, it is not validating username and password and it redirects to EBS login page which i gave in "session not valid URL" (it is going to a loop.)
Now my problem is when I login to EBS and click responsibility then my APEX screen should validate the EBS login and directly it should open. It should not ask for any other (APEX login)login page. If I paste the APEX application URL in any browser it should ask for EBS login page.
When I logout it should invalidate the session of EBS.
Thanks

OBIA 7.9.6.3 security integration with EBS R12.1.2

Hi Experts,
We are implementing OBI Apps 7.9.6.3 with EBS R12.1.2 as source.We need to integrate Active Directory with OBIEE and implement security of BI Apps with EBS R12.1.2. Need help on this.
How to map EBS Responsibilities into Application Role and Groups? Whether we need to create one Application Role and Group for each responsibility ? Then provide permissions in rpd for each of them? The user should have similar permission in BI as they have in EBS - like people can see only US Finance data in EBS should see only US Finance data in BI also.

Content database integration with EBS(IProcurement)

Hi All,
We are trying to save purchasing attachment to content database. Normally, It goes to EBS database. We have installed content suite and was able to intergrate with EBS. Now we are trying to save attachment to content database instead of EBS database. This we are trying to achieve for Iprocurement.
Does any body has worked upon this kind of requirment?
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Eureka,
Basically to acheieve your requirement, you have to use Content db java apis, which is available by oracle. There is also a separate forum for content db .
The idea is make a jsp page which will be the upload docs in content db.Here you have to implement content db java api s'. From oaf page you have to forward to this jsp , here user will upload his docs and then redirect him back to oaf page.

BI Publisher Integration with EBS

I Integrate BI Publisher with EBS security model, and almost everthing works fine.
I have a EBS user with 2 responsibilities, and 2 reports in BI Publisher.
I assign to my reports a diferent responsibility (The same for my user).
When sign in BI Publisher I select a responsibility.
When I open caltalog I see both reports, and I can execute both.
If I change my responsibility in "My Account" I can still see and execute both reports.
I can't see any diference in data results, between responsibilities changes
How can I fix this?
Regards,
Rene

Great. So you can logon to EBS then click a menu function in EBS to go straight to the analytics "Dashboards" or "Answers" (without another logon). You probably noticed that the link "More Products" - "BI Publisher" on Dashboards is broken. This is not supported following implementation of EBS Single Sign On (ICX_SESSION_COOKIE etc.). See the very latest release notes plus various bugs on mos.
But yes you can as a workaround set up a normal HTML link in EBS (using javascript:void(window.open('http://host:port/xmlpserver/','_blank') to go to the Publisher logon page with security model EBS Security (uploaded databse configuration file DBC file from EBS). [BTW DBC security works on OC4J but currently bug throws error if deployed with latest WebLogic Server - I assume you are not using WLS?].
Unfortunately the user will have to enter their EBS user name and password to get into publisher. You now have the problem that when the user runs a report with a data source using answers or logical sql on the jdbc connection to the biserver this will create a RPD session then the init block will fire to authenticate using the connection pool with the pre connect call to validate an icx session cookie that does not exist. I fixed this by creating a default value for session variable ICX_SESSION_COOKIE then called a custom xx version of app_session to handle the case for a user coming in from publisher who is already authenticated so that the FND_GLOBAL call will work required for the security init blocks (LEDGER etc.).

Hi,
Thanks everyone for the response.
Doc ID 975182.1 for EBS-OAM integration is being followed.
We've collected the HTTP traffic but it shows the same 500 internal error and class cast exception. The deployed access gate also shows the same error when in debug mode.
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks.
