Oracle BPM Papi WebServices

Hi,
When I am trying to Launch PAPI Webservices in Oracle BPM Studio 10.3.1 and in Oracle BPM Enterprise Standalone Server, I am getting the error: "HTTP Status 404 - Servlet PapiWebServiceServlet is not available".
Please help me in sorting out the issue.
Thanks,
Abhishek

To see how to invoke PAPI-WS when using Oracle BPM Studio, go to this thread: PAPI Web Service (PAPI-WS) Example for Oracle BPM Studio
Just a guess, but I'd suspect that the "Start PAPI Web Services" Studio Engine checkbox has not been checked (right mouse click the Project in your Project Navigator tab -> Engine Preferences -> click the "Advanced" tab on the right -> check the "Start PAPI Web Services" checkbox).
Here is the location of a step-by-step explanation on how to use PAPI Web Service (PAPI-WS) to create a work item instance and then run the instance inside an activity in a process running on Oracle BPM Enterprise Standalone.

How to Instantiate Oracle BPM Process Webservice from the OSB

Hi,
In our project we have one requirement i.e Instantiate Oracle BPM Process Webservice from the OSB.After register BPM service in to OSB I am creating one Message flow to instantiate BPM Process.
first call to startSession Operation, then use response of startSession operation is used as reqest for BPM process operation.
Can u tell me how do we use response of startSession operation to the request of BPM process.
Thanks in Advance.

An easier way of instantiating a BPM process via a WS call is to set the authentication type to 'Username Token Profile' on your web service operation in BPM studio and then redeploy it. If you use this type of security on your bpm process operations you can start the process in one call instead of having to get a session first and then starting the process.
Once you've updating the process, re-register the new process WSDL and business service with OSB (or import it manually) and you can just call the start process operation in one request (passing a username and password using the WS-UsernameToken method) without having to get a session first.
Hope this all make sense,
Mike.

Security for Oracle BPM PAPI WS

Hi all,
1) While creating a session using PAPI WS if we use the password same as username can't the webservices be invoked by other applications in te same network? How to prevent this? Any application which knows an username in Oracle BPM directory can invoke these web services!!
2)What is username token profile mechanism for WS?
how to apply username token profile for PAPI WS when invoked from .net apps? I need details.
Regards,
Som

1.) Any application which knows the username/password could invoke the services. The passwords are only the same as the username in Studio, not in enterprise.
2.) Username Token profile is a WS-Security standard. Using WCF you would be able to set the username/password which will be included in the SOAP header.

Invoking ALBPM (Oracle BPM) using Webservice calls

Hi,
I am trying to invoke Oracle BPM processes using webservice dynamically using events. I am presently not able to find any samples in this regard. Could somebody help me figure out a way to invoke Oracle BPM process dynamically using events ?
I would like to avoid the use of polling as an option.
TIA,
Sarat

I too have this question. It seems like you can no longer use BPEL with BPM 6.5/10GR3. Is this in fact the case? To use BPEL do you have to revert back to version 6.0?

Dan,
I tried in both studio and Standalone.
From Studio :*
1. The Url for the Webservice is (http://localhost:8585/papiws/PapiWebServiceEndpoint?wsdl). From studio by default port number was 8585.From this studio wsdl URL(http://localhost:8585/papiws/PapiWebServiceEndpoint?wsdl),I did n't see any wsdl text in the browser.
From Standalone :*
1. In BPM Admin Center, I have selected *"PAPI Web Services"* check box(Page 5 of your document).
2. In The BPM Admin Center, I have clicked on *"Start BPM Web Applications"*.
3. After Stand alone server started *"Launch PAPI WebServices Console"* link was enabled,And I clicked on that link.It opened a browser with URL (http://localhost:8686/papiws/PapiWebService)

I have copied wsdl URL(http://localhost:8686/papiws/PapiWebServiceEndpoint?wsdl) and pasted it into a browser's URL field.I did n't see any wsdl text in the browser,but I see following error

Technical Articles on Oracle BPM you might find useful

A friend pointed me to http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bpm/obpm_articles.html on OTN. It currently has these articles:
Tuning Oracle BPM Directory Services
Oracle BPM Clustering Tips and Tricks
Oracle BPM Engine Troubleshooting Tips and Tricks
Oracle BPM PAPI Instance Cache Explained
Oracle BPM Single Sign On Configuration

Migrating ALBPM 5.7 to OBPM 10gR3

ADDM is just a sophisticated software module.
It does not use any hard-to-understand, magical and mathematical tricks but sticks to collected information(AWR) and some proven best practices.
So, i think it's no harm for you to consult ADDM report.
Every best practice has weakness, it can't deal every aspect of your DBMS things.
But, it's good start point and does not make stupid mistakes unlike human beings always do.
Another thing to note is that ADDM is a very large module and connected with AWR, Tuning Avisors, wait events, Advisories, blah blah blah~
You're not using ADDM correctly if you have no good concepts and experiences on these.

Hi,
Is there any sample code showing PAPI-WS with VS 2008? AFAIK, there is a sample using VS 2005 and WSE 3.0, but I'm interested in using VS 2008/WCF.

How to call Apache CXF webservice/Spring/jms from Oracle BPM 10g

Hi , I am new to Oracle BPM and trying to develop simple POC. Can anybody give me some pointers on how to call a webservice whcich is based on Apache CXF/Spring/WSDL/jms as transport from oracle bpm 10g

You should ask this question in the JDeveloper or BI Publisher forum.

Supporting PAPI in Oracle BPM 11g ?

Hi All,
For Oracle BPM 11g , Is "PAPI" still support for Oracle BPM 11g ?
Furthermore, Is there any Hand-on Tutorials for Oracle BPM 11g ?
Many Thanks in Advance...
Pearapon S.

I think with 11g, the starting point for dealing with a Process* should be the Composite [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e10659/oracle/soa/management/facade/Composite.html] .
From Composite::getComponents() you should be able to get handle(s) to the process(es) deployed in the composite.
*IMHO, in most common usecases you really need to just interact with the human workflow services referred to earlier in this thread.

Hi,
For Oracle BPM 10g, I believe this is the PAPI-WS wsdl URL:
http://<machineName>:<the port for the WorkSpace>/papiws/PapiWebServiceEndpoint?wsdland I believe this is the process specific web service URL for Studio:
http://<machineName>:9000/albpmServices/<YourProjectName>/ws/<YourProcessName>ServiceListener?wsdl=truefor Enterprise, I believe you can find the process specific web service WSDL by going to this URL from a browser:
http://<machineName>:<port for the Workspace or the application server>/albpmServices/<Enterprise Engine’s name>/ws Hope this helps,
Dan

To launch Oracle BPM deployed Web Services [In BPM Enterprise]

Hi all,
I have expose my Process Instance into Web Services in Studio.
It is working well. In Studio, I start the Engine (Run -> Start Engine),
Then, I Start the Web Services (Run -> Launch deployed Web Services webapps).
It would show me my local webservice links.
http://localhost:9000/albpmServices/<ProjectName>/ws
But, I unable to launch this Web Service Webapps, when i deploy the project into Oracle BPM Enterprise with Weblogic Server.
May know what is the link for BPM Enterprise?
Regards,
Chris

My URL is:-
http://localhost:9000/albpmServices/TestProject/ws/TestProcessServiceListener?wsdl=true
and it does not seem to open the WSDL when I start the enterprise server engine..
I have the process exposed as a web-service with two methods..
One for Process Creation and another for Notification Wait Activity...
I have also checked the box to start PAPI WS Services on my standalone server
Is there some other config that I need to make inside my standalone server to get this WSDL?
I understand that standalone works on Tomcat...
