Oracle BIEE installation issue: Application Server default OC4J name error

Hi all,
I am installing OBIEE 10.1.3.3.2 windows 32bit version on windows 2003 sp2. Before the installation I have installed the JDK 5 and Application Server 10.1.3.1.0(J2EE Server and Web Server) on the same server according to the pre-install section in the OBIEE installation guide.
When I install OBIEE (advanced installation), I got the error when I specify the Oracle Application server location:
Please specify a valid Oracle Application Server 10g installation location. A valid Oracle Application Server 10g installation must have the default OC4J instance named home and that home OC4J instance must be enabled.
When I install the Application Server 10.1.3.1.0, I have change the default OC4J name to "oc4j-soa", I think this is the root reason I got the error. I have tried to create another OC4J instance named "home", but failed coz the name is used for another directory.
Then can I have another way to continue the installation? Why OBIEE installer have this strange constrain while not any words about this issue in the installation guide (coz I follow the each steps in the guild before I take action)? I have search some threads and the only information is to install a simple installation, but it would create another application server..... and the simple installation type is not what I want.
Can anybody give me some hint or information about this issue? otherwise I have to purge and reinstall the server...... Thanks
Scott

Reinstalling the App Server and naming oc4j instance to be called "home" resolves the issue but this is an odd requirement. I have an OC4J instance already running and it is named something else. Is there any other alternative to make this work?
Swapan.
PS. I can always create a new oc4j instance named "home" but this is wasting of server resources.

  • What is difference between Oracle Application Server and OC4J

    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Sunil

    OC4J is only the Oracle Container for Java, using a inner HTTP Server.
    Oracle Application Server, the components depend of the installation type.
    Components
    1. OC4J : Oracle container for Java ... without inner HTTP Server, this component use Apache to presentation tier.
    2. OC4J_SECURITY (SSO) : Single SingOn
    3. Forms and Report Server, Wireless ....
    4. Apache : Presentation Tier (use .so or .dll) for OC4J
    All the components of this suite are controlled by the OPMN (This component is installed in the OC4J).
    OPMN : Oracle Process Manager to control all the components.

  • Migration Issue:Urgent: Oracle 9i to 10g Application Server

    Hi,
    Using Oracle Jdev (ver 9.0.3.1) I have created a ear and want to deploy it in oracle application server 10g
    (release 2). Will there be any issue during deployment or during run?

    Generally speaking going up from 9i (902) to 10g (904) is very simple - going up to 10.1.2 of Forms would require a recompilation.
    There are not really any "big" issues in moving to these versions.

  • OpenSuse10.3 Installation of Application Server 10.1.3.1

    Hi all,
    today I have installed an Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1 on OpenSuse10.3. Installation with the Oracle Installer was ok, just the last step when Oracle tried to configure Oracle Application Server components was not successful. I retried the step without success. I then quit the Oracle installer and tried to start the http-server with the opmn tool. I recieve the following falilure message: "HTTP: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
    The file is really not present on the system. After some time on google I think I need some packages and install them. I tried to download and install the package "gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-34.1.i386" but without success because of dependencies. Unfortunately I Cannot find the packages needed to install the gnome-libs.
    Can anybody help me on this?

    Hi Shail,
    thanks for your answer. No, unfortunately I did not
    take a look. But I am now able to start the
    HTTP-Server. After hours spent on google I finally
    found the right package and installed it. One
    Question is left: When I run opmnctl status and the
    HTTP-Server is "Alive", does this mean that I can
    navigate to http://hostname.domainname:http_port and
    see the welcome page? If this is the case, there is
    something wrong, because I get an error screen
    instead of the welcome page...
    Regards
    MarkusThat's right, if you are successfully able to start OHS, you should be able to see the welcome page. What error do you see, a 404 or 500?
    But agree with Jacco that you might uncover more issues down the road so it is better to reinstall (after successfully meeting all prereqs) vs. spending time trying to diagnose and fix.
    Thanks
    Shail

  • Performance questions in Oracle Forms/Reports of Application Server 10g

    Hello.
    I have a dual Xeon 2.6 computer with 3 GB of memory and 6 GB of cache, running RedHat EL 3 with Oracle AS 10g (9.0.4.0.0).
    Application Server is used to run some applications created with forms, and it generates several reports, but the forms are also used as a front end to another Oracle Database (Oracle 7.0, runing in Sun Solaris 5.6).
    I've notested (and also my users) the application is getting very slow (is running in a dual Xeon, with 2 Gbit nics, in a 3 Gb backbone).
    The speed (or lack of it) is most noted when the forms are generating the reports (it used to be fast - 2 seconds) and now it can take up to 5 minutes.
    The AS 10g, when generating the reports, almost all of the querys go to the other server (in Solaris) and the results return to the server, and then the report is generated. The network has no problems (at least, that i know of), and the network performance is not an issue - both the servers are connected to a Gbit switch.
    Can someone may have an ideia of it can be?
    even in the clients, when running the forms application, the transition of the several menus is slow, and it used to be more fast.
    the 10g is using Java Jinitiator 1.3.18. Can it be from that ? i'm not certain, but i could say this things start happen when we upgraded the jinitiator from 1.3.13 to 1.3.18...
    My users are really getting on my nervers and i cant do nothing, because they have reason...
    any help would be appreciated !
    Cheers
    Bruno Santos

    Bruno, did you solve the performance problem? I'm experiencing the same lack of speed.

  • Installing an Oracle Database client on Application Server

    Hi all
    I have posted before but thought I'd clean up my original question and repost - apologies but I'm desperate for help here.
    I have a problem using Oracle Wallet with Application Server and Developer Suite 10g Rel 2 Software Update 10.1.2.3.0 on Windows 2003. The problem arises because the database which ships with this version of Application Server is 10.1.0.5. This database version is not compatible with Oracle Wallet external passwords eg sqlplus /@MY_WALLET_NAME.
    So...to get around this I'm looking at putting the 10.2 database client on which will allow me to use sqlplus with the wallet.
    My questions is:
    Does anyone have any advice for retaining existing Application Server functionality (we use Discoverer, Forms and Reports (RWCLIENT)) with a new Oracle 10.2 home on the server?
    I will put on the client so would expect if I copy across the tnsnames & sqlnet ora, the connectivity is all backward compatible. SQL*Plus is obviously backward compatible. I'm not familiar with Application Server so am looking for guidance on any configurations I might need to change to make sure they pick up the right Oracle Home. For example, with the new Oracle Home at the start of the %PATH%, will RWCLIENT work as normal?
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • Creating a connection pool using Oracle 10g, Sun ONE Application Serve 8.1

    Has any one succesfully configured Oracle 10g to work with Sun ONE Application Server 8.1 on Windows 2000 server service pack 4? I am embarking on a new J2EE project and I need to configure it as soon as possible.

    I haven't done it myself on that particular service pack, but I don't see why it should be any different than configuring a connection pool on other vanilla win2k/other OSes.
    Would you please try and let this forum know?
    thanks.

    Instead of installing SQL server instance you selected add node which is to be selected when SQL server installation is to be made on Node which is being added to cluster. Since your OS is not clustered I am sure you selected worng option.
    Please right click on setup file and select run as administrator. Now installation window which pops up on that on left hand side select
    installation and then on page that appears select 'New server standalone installation or add feature to existing installation'.
    You already have SQL server 2008 installed on your machine as per feature discovery report

  • Oracle 10g Installation issue on Windows 7

    Hi,
    I tried to install Oracle 10g downloaded from the below link on my laptop which runs in Windows 7.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/10204-winx64-vista-win2k8-082253.html
    The Oracle version is 10g release 2 for windows 7. I got this DB version no. for Windows 7 from this forum only. But still, I got the error message stated below and unable to install 10g.
    ------------------------------------------------------ Error --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    Checking installer requirements...

    ------------------------------------------------------ Error End -------------------------------------------------------------------
    Could you please let me know how I can fix this issue? Or is there any other oracle 10g release/patch to fix this issue? I need to install only Oracle 10g and not 11g.
    Also, I need to install Oracle Forms 10g too.
    It would be great if you could guide me on installing these two softwares in my laptop.

    Welcome to the forums !
    This issue has been discussed many times before. Pl use the search feature. The only versions supported in Win 7 (Professional or higher) are 10.2.0.5 and 11gR2. 10.2.0.5 is only available on My Oracle Support, while 11gR2 can be downloaded for free from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html

  • Oracle Reports with Other Application Server

    Can Oracle Reports be run within other Application Server such as WebSphere?
    For example, I've created Oracle Reports and save it as RDF file. Is there a way to have my application which run inside WebSphere to initiate Oracle Reports to compile RDF file into HTML or PDF without having to make a command line call?
    Thank you in Advance

    Hi Fred Narthasilpa,
    I have searched thru some of the Oracle Manuals for the same and found that they will provide support to Websphere soon, to publish Oracle Reports.
    However, not sure whether the same is made avl. as of today.
    Have a nice day,

  • Alternative to Oracle 9i AS as Application Server

    Would like to check what are the other options besides using Oracle 9iAS as application server when I plan to migrate the application from client/server to web.
    Would appreciate if someone can share his/her opinion on this. It is quite urgent as I need to make decision fast.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Compatibility between Oracle Developer suit and application server

    Hello
    We are going to user oracle 10 to develop and deploy our application.
    The tool that we were going to use are
    Developer Suite 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and
    Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.2.0)
    But i need to know whether this are compatible
    Where can I find any documentation related to compatibilities between developer suit and application server ?
    May thanks in advance

    Hi Ana,
    Compatible version of IAS is
    10g Release 2 (10.1.2) or 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) with patch 1(10.1.2.1.0)
    Also if u are using only forms and reports services there is a forms and reports standalone version is available. And hence u dont need to install infrastructre.
    And this is a very compact product.
    Even if you use forms 9i /developer suite 9i to develop the forms, when u compile them on IAS, it gets upgraded. There is not much diff between forms 9i and 10g
