Oracle BPA Suite

I downloaded Oracle BPA suite from Oracle site, installed BPA suite on Win 2003 Server. But when I click create new model and group it goes on starting standard database and error saying "unable to run local business server" What am I doing wrong or what I have to do to rectify this.
Thanks in advance.

i guess you are clicking on file>new>model , or something like that.
y dont you first go to designer/explorer , make sure you see the navigator frame, and click on "local" in navigator frame to start the local database first. adn then login to any database to create a model/group.
In case it does not even happen then, and it still says unable to start the local server, check out the logs in <Oracle BPA Suite>\LocalServer\log directory and check what the error is.

Sequence diagram lifeline in Oracle BPA Suite

I try to create sequence diagram in Oracle Busines Process Architect 11g. I use type of model "UML Sequence diagram". But in palette there is no object with type "Lifeline". How can I add lifelines to my sequence diagram?

Oracle BPA Suite Install

Hi,
I've done some browsing on BPA Suite today and found some great documents around it and would like to download BPA to get my hands dirty but can't seem to find any downloads for it.
On one of the documents I came accross I found a link to a download:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bpa/index.html
Can someone maybe let me know where we can download it or is it part of the BPM Suite Extention?
Tanks in advance...

I am also interesting in knowing when the new version will be posted. It would be help to remove non-working (expired ) versions to save people from 2 hrs of research./ trial and error.

Seeded Reports within Oracle BPA Suite...

Folks,
Would you be able to point me towards any Demo Script
that I could follow against our Demo Databases to test all the
seeded reports within BPA?
I was looking to run these reports against any of these Demo Database:
"Demo70" or "United Motors Group" or "Quote To Cash"
In lieu of randomly running the report against any model within this
Demo database; I was hoping to find some structure I could follow to
see a tangible & pertinent output. This would have also demonstrated
which Model Types were pertinent for which reports & vice versa...
Thanks

Well, in the case of the eval 11g the server is embedded with the BPA Suite and/or is simply Oracle XE. I had restarted both of these and since it is Windows, I restarted Windows too. Nothing worked.
So, I ended up exporting (well, backing up) those "databases" that I wanted and reinstalled everything. That, too, was quite the experience. At least the eval copy of this is not consistent in behavior (seems the version on the server changes daily, although I couldn't get the latest one to install, reverted to a saved version of the download), the install does not work consistently and even worse, when the install fails there are no such indications... it all looks just fine (in my case, attempts to use non-default tablespaces did not work, the log file indicated a bad login without any details on what really failed, yet install didn't say a thing)...
Based solely on my experience with the eval copy, if it were up to me, I would not use this product at all. You may have other experiences, but the lack of current and correct documentation along with inconsistent behavior makes the administration of this tool a guessing game...even restoring the database that I had backed up failed the first time (couldn't login), but I could delete it, and attempted again and it worked that time. Just very poor error messages (as in none), and inconsistent behavior doesn't lead to trusting this very much, if at all.

If you want to load HTML file content as structured data, you have 2 basic choices.
If the HTML is XHTML compliant, then you can process it using the XML functions and XDB features of Oracle. The likelihood that it conforms to XHTML is slight though - very few web systems and services (to my knowledge) dish up XHTML. And plain HTML is not compliant.
The 2nd choice - well, a dirty one as you will need to find some kind of method to change HTML data into structured data. You can use a HTML parser that builds a HTML DOM - Gecko can be used for example. However, this is not a trivial exercise.
So instead you can also look at creating code that specifically support the HTML content that you need to process (these should use a static formatting model for the same page types). You can use string processing (Perl, lex, awk, regex, etc) to extract the usable data content from the HTML file and then load that into Oracle as structured data.
Whatever the method - if not XHTML, then you can expect a fair deal of complexity loading structured data from HTML content.

KPIs in Oracle BPA Suite 11g

Hi everyone!
Is it possible to define KPIs in BPMN model, so that those KPIs are translated to BPEL sensors upon BPEL translation?
It seems that checking the Calculate activity processing time on BPMN activity does not work.

hi Paul,
Thanks for the link..I have one doubt in this..Can you tell me where the xsd location of xref will be there ?
In the document he has given the

Unable to establish connection between JDeveloper and Oracle BPA

Hi,
I have the jdeveloper as well as the oracle bpa installed.
When I try to establish the connection for bpa within jdeveloper, i am unable to do so.
I checked the connection within jdeveloper, BPA Server connection. it gives a result 'Test succeeded. After that when i click the ok button on the dialogue box, it does not close the dialogue box and allow me to proceed further.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Jdeveloper version is 11g and Oracle BPA Suite is 11gR1.

BPA suite 11g and Jdev 10g

hello,
BPA11G is also compatible with JDEV10 ? I can use Jdev 10g with BPA suite 11g or not ? or we must install Jdev 11g ? (send a document about this)
BR,

Hi,
please install the JDeveloper 11g and apply the newest "BPA Extension for JDeveloper". Install the BPA Extension using the JDeveloper Update Center. From the JDeveloper menu choose Help > Check for Updates. Browse and pick the pcbpel_bundle.zip found in the Oracle BPA Suite 11g Addons.
It is necessary to keep the JDeveloper and BPA Suite version consistent, especially for the major releases 10 or 11. This is because in 11g a BPEL process is part of a SOA Composite, which means the technical concept has been changed as well.
Best regards,
Danilo

Does Oracle BPM Suite has an inbuild process for Work Flow Mgmt ?

HI,
There is an workflow tool in the market known as STAFFWARE. IS oracle BPM Suite has this capability of workflow mgmt. So, is the BPM suite able to replace the Staffware S/W ?

Hi Dhawal,
If you are refereing to actual implementation of a modelled workflow or process, the short answer is yes. See for example [http://www.oracle.com/technologies/soa/oracle-bpa-suite-datasheet.pdf].

BPA Suite Installation problems

Hi all,
i installed Oracle BPA Suite in my laptop with XP to make some proofs of concept. So, first i installed the Oracle 10gR2 database and due my laptop uses an ip address assigned by dhcp, first i had to activate the loopback interface with a fixed address (192.168.1.1), a kind of address like the db documentation recommends. Also, i added a line in my hosts file like the following:
192.168.1.1 NTBTEAJESPINOZA.sigfe.local
After that i completed the installation process for the BPA Suite.
Once the installation finished, i had to modify two configuration files ArisLauncher.cfg and AdminAgentLauncher.cfg, appended the ip address to the agent profile options, like this:
<Profile name="Agent" port="17053" threadpoolsize="20" options="--host 192.168.1.1">
</Profile>
After that i launched the Oracle BPA Repository, which show me that run without problems. The log file shows this information:

BPA Suite 12c ?

Hi friends.
I would like to know, If Oracle think to release a new version of Oracle BPA Suite in Oracle BPA Suite 12c
I hope your answers, regards.

Hi Carlos,
I agree with Dan, I don't believe that there will be a BPA 12c. The agreement that Oracle had with IDS Scheer has ended and from rumors that I heard they didn't and will not renew it.
As you may have noticed Oracle has build into BPM 12c some business architecture capabilities to create BA models and artifacts such as enterprise process maps, value chain models and strategy models. You can create your KPIs and roll them up to your value chains. And of course you can run some BA reporting such as process criticality reports and value chain KPI reports.

Simulation in Oracle BPA

Hi all:
I need to help me in these two points:
1) How I can simulate a loop using bpmn 1.x in oracle bpa 11gR1
2) How I can calculate the average time for the simulation of a model containing one or more subprocess and when I should use subprocess in a model
thanks for your help

Yes you can do it.
There is an elaborate article describing this.
See it here.
