Oracle BAM Application Policies in EM missing

Hello,
I am trying to assign users and/or groups to the pre-seeded Oracle BAM application policies (section 26.3.2 and 26.3.3 of below support document). The way I get there is to navigate in the EM: BAM/OracleBamServer(right-click)/Security/ApplicationPolicies. When the page opens, I click on the blue arrow button to do a search. However, no security policies are found. When I do the same thing for ApplicationRoles, no roles are found. Is there something I need to do to get the pre-seeded application policies and roles for BAM? In other environments, I haven't had this problem - the roles and policies were populated already.

Thanks
Ben

The solution provided to me by Oracle Support was to copy/paste a missing section into the admin server's system-jazn-data.xml file. The complete section is listed below. Oracle Support said that the file must have been overwritten at some point during the install or while restarting SOA managed servers.
The location of the file: /opt/oracle/product/fmw/user_projects/domains/soa_domain/config/fmwconfig

  • Oracle BAM Reports and Dataobjects are missing after the ADC service is up.

    Hi...
    I had a problem like my BAM's ADC service was not starting up. I could resolve the problem but once that was done, a new problem araised like this;
    All my reports and the Data objects were missing . I couldn't find anything in the Architect and the Viewer. All the users that were created were found missing in the 'login management' of the BAM administrator. I check out my BAM Schema,as you all know the default schema "Orabam". I could find all my dataobjects in the tables section.
    Can any one of you throw more light on it as to how would I get back my Data objects and reports??
    and Kindly tell me where exactly do these reports get saved....
    Any light on these will really be appreciated....

  • Oracle BAM Web Applications not supported by Firefox and Chrome browsers

    Hi,
    1) To enable Oracle BAM in a BPM project, when a project data object is marked as a business indicator, the Process Engine stores
    its value in the BAM and DataMart databases, as explained in the documentation. So, How can we use this information to monitor the process activity? Is there any detailed documentation or a sample?
    2) Does Oracle BAM Web Applications still not supported by the browsers Firefox (3.5 and 3.6) and Google Chrome?
    Tahnks. Regards,
    Hanine

    Hanine,
    The business indicators can be used when creating your data objects in BAM Architect and BAM Active Studio.
    The BAM tools still require Internet Explorer only.

  • How to Create an Oracle BAM Server Connection?

    I m following the steps at the end of this post to create the connection but at the end I m getting this message from JDev:
    {Unable to write to
    /C:/JDeveloper/mywork/Application1/.adf/META-INF/connections.xml
    because it is a read-only. Either make it writable or allow it to be made writable through source control.}
    it creates the directory C:/JDeveloper/mywork/Application1/.adf/META-INF/ with only a adf-config.xml file but NOT the connections.xml any one knows what is wrong?
    Bellow is the stpes I m following. Its exactly what is written at the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer´s guide for Oracle SOA Suite 11g Release 1(11.1.1) E10224-01
    To create an Oracle BAM connection:
    1. Select New from the File main menu in Oracle JDeveloper.
    The New Gallery dialog opens.
    2. Choose Connections from the General category.
    3. Select BAM Connection in the Items list, and click OK.
    The BAM Connection wizard opens.
    4. Provide a name for the connection. Leave the Create Connection In selection as
    Application Resources.
    5. Click Next.
    6. Enter the following connection information about the Oracle BAM instance.
    7. Click Next.
    8. Test the connection by clicking Test Connection. If the connection was successful,
    the following message appears:
    Passed.
    9. Click Finish.
    Note: You can create connections to Oracle BAM in the Oracle
    JDeveloper Resource Palette as well as the Application Resources
    panel of a specific application. It is recommended that you create these
    connections in the Application Resources pane rather than the
    Resource Palette.

    Ok that will be nice, but is not the case I dont want to read the tutorial, the problem is I already start to read and execute the tutorial you told me the problem is this tutorial it doesnt show how to do everything from scratch because you already have inside the zip file everything like xmls etc etc, and I want to get my DO and create the process myself, I dont want to get something that it is already done, this tutorial does not show for example how to create this composite.xml, this file it is already inside the zip file, so this way I just follow half of the process and dont learn how to make the whole process.

  • Differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI and Question BAM  Data Objects

    Hi,
    I have two questions.
    1. Can someone tell me differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI?
    My understanding about Oracle BAM is, we use BAM to build Dashboards or Reports.
    We can also build DashBoards or reports using Oracle BI.
    I am not able to understand why Oracle has two tools for same purpose?
    Which tool is more powerful and user friendly(Oracle BI or Oracle BAM)?
    2. Every time we plan to develop Dashboard or report in BAM, we need to create BAM ADC Data Object to store Data (i.e first step is to get data from external database or application and second step is to store data in BAM ADC data object).
    My understanding is we have an extra step(i.e creating Data Object) in Oracle BAM to develop a report or DashBoard
    I am wrong pl correct me?

  • Building Oracle ADF Applications Workshop

    I have finished going through the "Building Oracle ADF Applications: Workshop"
    from the following link:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe9051jdev/ide1012/adfworkshop/buildingadfapplicationsworkshop.htm
    Hopefully that is sufficient for the doc writer to locate the context of my
    comments. If not, let me know and I'll provide additional information.
    I grouped all of these together as one big comment. If you want it in a
    different format, again, let me know.
    Prior starting the workshop I printed out the entire document which resulted in
    51 pages of output. In each comment, except for the first general comment, I
    list the section name, step number and my page number which should be enough to
    uniquely identify the area that the comment relates to. My suggestions start
    out with "It would be nice...". I numbered the comments so I could have
    comments refer to each other.
    (1) One of the things I really liked was the "If you want to see a
    demonstration of these steps, click here" links. Sometimes the discussion
    was not precise so being able to see the actual usage worked well. It would
    be nice if there were more of these in the workshop.
    (2) "Building the Basic Page Flow", step 2, page 13.
    I had some trouble with this because it wasn't clear how one changes the
    DataPage's name. I used the property sheet and did it wrong, resulting in
    an error. I had to consult the "If you what to see..." link to determine
    how to do this correctly.
    It would be nice if there were a paragraph before "When you are done"
    saying something like:
    To change the name of a DataPage just click on the icon's label and
    enter the new value, starting with the leading slash.
    (3) "Connecting the Pages", step 9, page 21.
    This step has one switch to the Source editor view to make a change. This
    change can also be made in the Design view.
    It would be nice to stay in the Design view. The suggested wording for this
    is:
    In the Design view you can change the Edit button link by clicking on
    the Edit button and pressing the left arrow (<--) key once on the
    keyboard. The Property Inspector will be in an <A> element. Edit the
    href property by appending the following:
    &event=Edit
    (4) "Connecting the Pages", step 10, page 22.
    The first time I had trouble drawing the links. A bit more discussion on
    how to draw the links with corners would be nice. One of the troubles was
    that I would edit one link and another (or all of them) would suddenly
    change to simple vertical links (no corners). The link lines were
    separated, but the link names were displayed making it more difficult than
    necessary to tell which link line went with which link name.
    (5) "Adding a Create Function", step 4, page 24.
    I have the same comment on this step as I did in comment (3).
    (6) "Creating Session Variables with onEvent() methods", step 2, page 27.
    The last paragraph describes how JDeveloper will prompt you to enter an
    import statement. The comment I wrote on that page was:
    Cool!
    It's nice that JDeveloper handles this booking task.
    (7) "Building a Message Stack with a findForward() method", step 1, page 28.
    In the second paragraph it's not clear what the context is. It would be
    nice if the second paragraph would start out with:
    In struts-config.xml, right-click ...
    (8) "Building a Message Stack with a findForward() method", step 6, page 30.
    This code fragment at the end of this step has all lines starting in column
    1. It would be nice if this was indented so it could be followed with less
    effort. The same is true for the other code fragments in this section.
    (9) "Building a Message Stack with a findForward() method", step 12, page 32.
    I wrote a simple Java program that compared a String variable to a string
    literal. In all cases using == to compare returned false, while .equals()
    worked correctly. I was using Java 1.4.2_06_b03. Even if Java 1.5 supports
    converting the == between strings to equals(), it would be nice if the
    comparisons to the "type" variable used the .equals() method instead of ==,
    so that those of us still using Java 1.4 would have properly working code.
    Note that == in 1.4 compares the hash values while equals() looks at the
    contents.
    (10) "Enabling the Delete Confirmation Page", step 5, page 36.
    The last sentence of the first paragraph contains the phrase:
    if there are errors, build the ActionMessage object.
    It would be nice if this contained an extra word as in:
    if there are no errors, build the ActionMessage object.
    (11) "Enabling the Delete Confirmation Page", step 6, page 36.
    Line 12 (or 13 if you count blank lines) is storing a value in the request
    object. It would be nice to have a discussion in this step instead of
    having to wait until section "Intercepting the Middle-Tier Message", step
    8, page 42 before we know what this is all about.
    (12) "Overriding the findForward() Method", step 1, page 44.
    It appears that the call to the super.findForward method is missing. It
    would be nice if the following were inserted before the closing curly
    brace:
    super.findForward(actionContext);
    (13) "Overriding the findForward() Method", step 9, page 46.
    Near the end of this step it mentions the imports that are added. It
    appears that there is a missing import statement. If this is correct, it
    would be nice to also include the following import:
    import oracle.adf.controller.struts.actions.DataActionContext;
    (14) "Overriding the findForward() Method", step 10, page 46.
    My diagram doesn't look like this. The "Edit" link between /browseCustomers
    and /editCustomers should be "Commit". The "Cancel" link from
    /editCustomers back to itself shouldn't be there. The "Commit" link from
    /sure to /browseCustomers should be "Cancel". Compare this with the diagram
    in section "Creating a Delete Confirmation Page and a Forward", step 5,
    page 25.
    (15) "Internationalizing Field Labels", step 3, page 48.
    This is another case where the context is not clear. It would be nice if
    the following was added to the first paragraph:
    In the browseCustomers page,
    (16) "Internationalizing Field Labels", step 10+, page 49.
    Everything is internationalized except for the buttons. How does one
    internationalize them?
    (17) "Conditionally Displaying a Field", step 1, page 49.
    The last sentence says "The result should look like the following:". If one
    were following this workshop from front to back then what should be shown
    is the internationalized version of this page.
    (18) "Conditionally Displaying a Field", step 5, page 50. Bug?
    When I look at the Source view of editCustomers.jsp the <INPUT> element has
    a property setting of disabled="true". When I run the application and look
    at the HTML source used by the browser, that same <INPUT> element has a
    property setting of disabled="disabled". It works, but isn't that somewhat
    redundant? I recommend that the source code should have the disabled
    property setting as it appears in the Source view.

  • How to use "Oracle Real Application Testing"

    I am analyzing if/how my employer can make best use of "Oracle Real Application Testing". I therefore read various documentation and articles as well as the relevant sections in the "Oracle® Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference". However, there is one conceptual question which I could not yet answer from this documentation.
    From what I understood there are (at least) two possible approaches to capture and replay SQL workload:
    1) Capture the workload into a STS (SQL Tuning Set) using DBMS_SQLTUNE. Replay the workload before/after changes made to the system using DBMS_SQLPA. DBMS_SQLPA can be further used to compare the before/after execution and to generate comparison reports thereof.
    2) Capture the workload into OS files (and optionally into a SQL Tuning Set in addition to that) using DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE. Replay the workload using DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPLAY. DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPLAY can be further used to compare different replay runs and generate reports thereof.
    Now my questions are:
    {noformat}(i){noformat} Is the overview I sketched above correct or did I misunderstand/miss important points?
    (ii) What is the conceptual difference between the two approaches depicted in (1) and (2) above / what is the intended use for each of them?
    (iii) What is the difference between the information that DBMS_WORKLOAD_CAPTURE writes in the corresponding OS files and the information that is stored in a STS? From what I understand, both store information related to SQL execution during a certain period, including the impact of each SQL on the entire workload. Are the two just different formats to store the data (within and outside of the database) or is there any different information stored in them?

    Here you have books related to that theme:

  • Oracle BAM Authentication Question

    We are facing a strange problem related to Oracle BAM authentication and I'd like to ask for opinions or suggestions.
    - We have a BAM Server called MYSERVER
    - MYSERVER is a Win2003 and BAM was installed using MYSERVER\Administrator account
    - We have a domain called MYDOMAIN
    - MYSERVER is part of domain MYDOMAIN and this domain is registered in MYSERVER as a trusted domain.
    - We have four user groups created in domain, not in bam server:
    1) MYDOMAIN\bamAdmin
    2) MYDOMAIN\bamArchitect
    3) MYDOMAIN\bamDesigner
    2) MYDOMAIN\bamUser
    - In Windows 2003 we added the following users to the groups below:
    user MYDOMAIN\adm was added to group MYDOMAIN\bamAdmin
    user MYDOMAIN\arch was added to group MYDOMAIN\bamArchitect
    user MYDOMAIN\des was added to group MYDOMAIN\bamDesigner
    user MYDOMAIN\usr was added to group MYDOMAIN\bamUser
    - In Administrator>Login Management
    We didn't create login for users, only groups just described:
    MYDOMAIN\bamAdmin
    MYDOMAIN\bamArchitect
    MYDOMAIN\bamDesigner
    MYDOMAIN\bamUser
    - In Administrator>Roles Management
    We selected each Role and added the following groups
    Administrator > MYDOMAIN\bamAdmin
    Report Architect > MYDOMAIN\bamArchitect
    Report Creator > MYDOMAIN\bamDesigner
    Report Viewer > MYDOMAIN\bamUser
    - After that, we return to Administrator > Login Management to review groups
    There is an yellow question mark indicating bam cannot validate this login in domain controller.
    This login is not currently known to be a valid login.
    We click in one of the described groups, such as
    MYDOMAIN\bamUser
    And then in "View Roles" link.
    We receive the following message
    ADC Server exception in GetUserGroups(): 3.
    Source: "ActiveDataCache" ID: "ADCServerException"
    Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
    Source: "Oracle.BAM.Common.Core"
    Sometimes we get: "Network path not found" and finally we get this message:
    "The account used to run the Oracle BAM Active Data Cache does not have permission to retrieve the list of groups for this user. Contact your network administrator."
    - If MYDOMAIN\usr that was added to group MYDOMAIN\bamUser try to access BAM Viewer module or bam home page (http://myserver/oracleBam), he receives the same error in welcome screen.
    - User MYDOMAIN\usr can login to MYSERVER server in domain MYDOMAIN, so server recognizes the domain and user.
    - In Windows NT Alert Viewer we have several errors/warnings registered, telling that BAM could not validate user/login and also "RPC Server Unavailable" errors.
    - I tried changing ADC Service user credentials to MYDOMAIN\Administrator, but ADC Service didn't start anymore, so we have to reconfigure to MYSERVER\Administrator.
    - In ADC Log we have several messages indicating BAM could not validate user:
    2008-01-22 17:26:11,875 [User Validation Thread] WARN - ActiveDataCache Caught exception while validating user MYDOMAIN\usr: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
    And when we changed credentials to MYDOMAIN\Administrator we got messages indicating bam stores some type of key/encrypt information by user who installed product (MYSERVER/Administrator):
    2008-01-22 16:49:16,062 [1484] ERROR - ActiveDataCache DPAPI was unable to decrypt data. CryptUnprotectData failed. Error -2146893813: Key not valid for use in specified state.
    Somebody may point us what could be wrong, perhaps a tip or doc about WINDOWS/BAM auth integration?
    Metalink has few information about that, such as Note: 412555.1, but from network view it seems to be correct because we may log on MYDOMAIN\usr to MYSERVER successfully.
    Bam could integrate to NT user authentication seamlessly, but it seems to me that it's harder and tricky than we thought.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you in advance,
    Rogério

    Hi,
    Windows services running as local user can not do domain user authentication (even when machine is on that domain)
    You will need to change ADC Service user credentials to MYDOMAIN\Administrator. If you just do this only in services, service wont start because the database passwords in config files are encrypted as original user and can not be decrypted by new user.
    See "Working with Post-Install Password Changes and Password Expiration Policies" in the BAM Install Guide (In chapter 3 under Additional Configuration Settings) to change the config files. And also add MYSERVER\Administrator to BAM Administrator group before change.
    The easiest may be to just reinstall as user MYDOMAIN\Administrator.
    Thanks

  • After configuring  LDAP Oracle BAM Server is not starting

    Configured LDAP on SOA Suite PS3 (11.1.1.4.0) environment. As per the requirement create OracleSystemUser and OracleSystemGroup in external LDAP and made the user as memner to OracleSystemGroup. Followed the guide @ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bam/technote-bam-multiplesecurityprovid-130532.pdf

    3) Made "OracleSystemUser" as member to "OracleSystemGroup"
    Post configuration, restarted SOA Admin Server and Oracle BAM Server but BAM Server failed to start and its goving following error in the logs :

    Hi Raj,
    Couple of points. Please check,
    1. if the listener is up
    2. the tnsnames.ora to check the right HOST
    3. related services are up

    Hi Nitin,
    Was the password of the account that the ADC service runs as changed?
    If so, see "Working with Post-Install Password Changes and Password Expiration Policies" in the BAM Install Guide.

  • Oracle BAM - Very strange behaviour

    I have just installed SOA Suite 11.1.1.7 together with BAM. I have followed the instructions in order, created the repositiory etc.
    BAM server is up and running but all application deployments are unavailable. hostname:port/oracle-bam is unavailable
    please help

    Ok thanks, I have managed to make some progress now. There was an issue with "JRFWSAsyncJmsModule" not deploying, but I created a new domain, and added JRF, which seemed to solve it.
    However, things have gotten much stranger now.
    If I go to https://localhost:9002/OracleBAM with Firefox I get:
    The Browser you are using is not supported. Internet Explorer 7 or 8 is required.
    If I go to https://localhost:9002/OracleBAM with Internet Explorer 8, or to http://localhost:9001/OracleBAM, I get 404 not found. I am sure the URLs are correct, which is clear from the fact that I get the "browser not supported" message from BAM if I use Firefox. Strangely, only the SSL version returns anything (https & port 9002) if I go to the non-SSL (port 9001, plain http) I just get 404, and if use IE like I'm supposed to with the same URL as above I get 404. There are no errors in the logs anymore.
    I have found a troubleshooting document:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bam/documentation/bam-trouble-133227.pdf
    It says:
    2.2 404 Error
    The following 404 error occurs on attempt to start Oracle BAM Web applications:
    Error 404--Not Found
    From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
    10.4.5 404 Not Found
    Verify that the port number is correct and the URL is exactly in the following format
    (which is case-sensitive):
    http://host_name:port_number/OracleBAM
    Which is an impressively long way of saying "make sure you have the right URL", which I did several times...
    Any other ideas or tips would be much appreciated. Thanks.
