Hi,
Can someone please provide me the MOS DOCs or any other docs for : How User Authentication will happens in EBS when using SSo.
IF with out SSO user authentication via FND_USEER table.
How it differs when using SSO ? And what are the tables and / or files it touched during this process ?
Thanks
Vijay

Integrating Oracle EBS with web services which use SAML authentication

Hi,
I have a requirement to invoke web service using PL/SQL from a Custom Form of EBS.
The web Service is configured to use SAML as authentication mechanism.
Coming to question!
1) How do I make my EBS integrate with a SAML provider preferably (Oracle Identity Federation) ?
2) How do i get the SAML token in my PL/SQL and pass it on to the web service?

Hi ,
We have Oracle EBS R12 (12.1.2) with Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.2) Database on Linux env.
We want to implement Oracle Database Vault 11gR2. We are referring to Note: Integrating Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 with Oracle Database Vault 11gR2 [ID 1091083.1].
Do we need to install Oracle Database 11gR2 (s/w only) again on the Oracle Database Server or can we use the existing Oracle EBS Database 11gR2 Home which is already on 11.2?
Regards,
ThiruAs mentioned in the doc "If your E-Business Suite R12 is already integrated with 11gR2 database, you just need to enable Database Vault 11gR2 & register it with the database as per Task 3", so no installation of ORACLE_HOME is required and you just need to "Register Oracle Database Vault".

Intergrate Apex with R12 , How to Extend Oracle EBS with Oracle Apex

Question out to the experts. I am looking for the easiet way to launch an Apex Application from EBS, we are currently on 12.1.3 (EBS) and 3.2 (Apex, we will be updgrading here shortly). We would like to create a responsibilty in EBS , when click upon it brings up our application and login screen. We are using an LDAP authentacation and will build a custom authorization scheme using the launching responsibility from EBS as the gate keeper.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated

Sure , i have a couple of questions
You posted a link to follow but it brings me to several discussion threads. I am using the .pdf by Rod West from Cabot Consulting (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf). To try to set up the ability to launch apex via a responsibilty in R12 specifically 12.1.3. There are a couple of steps that i have questions about.
With the E-Business Suite R12 this is achieved by creating a custom jsp in the $OA_HTML
directory on the server. An example is shown in the LaunchApex.jsp shown in Figure 9. The jsp
assumes that /pls/apex is the APEX DAD and that there is a custom system profile
***** First Question for step below
(APEX_HTTP_SERVER) containing details of the Oracle HTTP Server used by APEX.
?? What type of information are we supposed to setup here? I am assuming this is done under application developer via EBS but not sure what we are suppose to enter?
This is referring to a custom system profile that you need to create using Application Developer responsibility and populate the site level with the HTTP server URL you are using for APEX - see {thread:id=2273624} for an example
>
>
The jsp can be compiled using the command shown in Figure 8 (See metalink notes 215268.1 and
458338.1).
******* Second Question
??? The command below in Figure 8 does not work, i get a cannot find ojspCompile.pl error , also the metalink notes enclosed seem to talk about a different issue?
Figure 8
export PATH=$PATH:$FND_TOP/patch/115/bin
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp ' retr
I believe this is a typo - there is a space between "jsp" the single end-quote, which should not be present. Try the command without the space.
>
In the end all I am trying to do initially is get apex to launch via an EBS responsibility (NO SSO initially) , i had this working in 11i but not with r12 i have having some difficulties. Apex is running and working on the db , so we know the application is viable , just trying to work on a different launching mechanism
Thanks again for taking out the time.. Hopefully with your help we can get this up and running

Oracle EBS with Windows vista

I recently brought HP laptop, which came with windows vista OS. I can't go back to XP. Drivers does not support any other OS.
Did any body try installing oracle apps version 11 down loaded from oracle site.
Please advise me!!!

Oracle E-Business Suite 11i/R12 is not yet certified on Microsoft Vista.

If you can manage to use VMware and install some other certified OS, it would be better.

Can't Access Oracle EBS with a Lenovo X201 laptop

My Company runs Oracle E-Business Suite version 11.5.10.2. I recently had to get a new laptop (Lenovo X201). I can log onto the Oracle Application Home Page and select a responsibility, but when I select an operation, like Invoice Inquiry in the Payables Module for instance, I get the following message, "This tab has been recovered. A problem with this web page has caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab." The laptop is running the XP operating system and Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702. Our IT staff can't figure out the problem. They looked at all the usual cause for problems, like pop-up blockers, etc. They also spoke to Lenovo Support without finding a resolution. We experienced a similar problem with Dell laptops that they were able to resolve. Has anyone experienced this problem with a recent-vintage Lenovo computer and found a solution?

Can you find any details about the error in Apache log files and/or Sun JRE Console Window?
If the issue is reproducible, please make sure you meet the minimum requirements as per these docs.

API (interface tables) to synchronize Oracle EBS and outsourced functions?

Hi,
Our company is outsourcing the inventory and shipping functions. Now we'll need to synchronize the Oracle EBS with actual shipment data. We have've to use the APIs and keep Oracle tables in sync with the legacy system.
Which API we can use for Pick Confirm, when we have to do WMS and LPN handling? Or is there some other way (like interface tables) to take care of this issue?
APIs should be supported with our EBS version 11.5.9. EBS version upgrade is not possible for us now. We'll need info how to implement above issue asap.

Integrating Oracle EBS and ApEx Aplication with Responsibilities and SSO.

Good day all.
I am looking forward from getting somebody 's help, the trouble I am facing is described below:
a) I am currently working on SSO with EBS. I mean, my users can connect and work perfectly.
b) ApEx is Configured as Application Partner with SSO, and the application we built (it's call PR-Auto)
is working good under SSO platform. I mean I am able to login using TEST user and password TEST in
both applications (EBS and PR-Auto).
c) The thing is that I need to call PR-Auto from one responsibility in EBS;
Following my setup for the responsibility:
- I have created a function:
Name: APEX_FA_PR
Properties:
Function type: SSWA plsql
Web HTML :apps.apex_launcher.launch_fa_pr
Web Host agent: pls/apex
- I have created a menu, application and responsibility using the function APEX_FA_PR.
- I have create launcher package:
create or replace package apex_launcher is
procedure launch_fa_pr;
end apex_launcher;
create or replace package body apex_launcher as
procedure launch_fa_pr as
begin
/** 110 Is ID of PR-Auto, my app **/
/** 5 is my home page **/
f(p=>'110:5');
end;
end apex_launcher;
d) New responsibility shows on EBS menu page.
e) Click on responsibility, and the page shows 'redirecting to login server for authentication', but
nothing happens, page goes blank with this url:

Many Thanks Daniel for your prompt reply.
Tried to understand the white Paper and your thread but I am still facing problem,although able to Call ApEX page but now i

END;
I am doing custom authencitaion and calling apex_authorise function there.
Although I am able to Call the ApEX and able to validate application server password,but moment i try taking help off cookies
to pass on my application session details to ApEX so that users would not have to login twice,i am gettign the error.
Second question:
Do we have any other methos of passing session to ApEX from Application server other than cookies.
Please suggest.

Integration of Oracle Apex with EBS R12.1.1

Dear All,
We are in process of integrating Oracle Apex 4.0.2 with EBS R12.1.1 with the help of http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf.
After doing all the steps, the moment when we navigate from EBS application to Apex application by clicking on the EBS menu link it ends up with below error
"404 Not Found
Resource /OA_HTML/null/pls/apex/f not found on this server"
After some analysis i found the below code in "LaunchApex.jsp" for getting the profile value (supposed to be 'http://myserver:port') from custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" and prefixing to "/apex/f?p=applicationid:page::APPS:::" is not happening properly
String l_launcher = ctx.getProfileStore().getProfile("APEX_HTTP_SERVER");
l_launcher = l_launcher + "/apex/f?p=" + p_application + ":" + p_page;
l_launcher = l_launcher + "::APPS:::" + p_item_names + ":" + p_item_values;
as we found that the custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" not exist in EBS system. But it works without any page error if we hard code the entire apex application URL in l_launcher variable, but this takes us to EBS login page instead of Apex application page.
So i feel we can't bypass using profile value from "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" as it has some relation with EBS application session.
So could anyone please help me how we could create custom system profile "APEX_HTTP_SERVER" or any other options to make the seamless integration of Oracle apex with EBS works without any second login page
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Create a profile under Application Developer Responsibility as follow:
Name OAE_LAUNCHER
Application <whatever>
User Profile Name Oracle Application Express Launcher
Description Oracle Application Express Launcher
2. Set above profile value under System Administrator Responsibility -> Profile -> System, and search for the ‘OAE_LAUNCHER’.
Set the value at Site Level as:
http://<hostname>:<Apex port>/pls/apex
Then instead of hardcoding the URL in the jsp, just give the profile name OAE_LAUNCHER that you have just created in the jsp.
Hope this helps you
Brgds,
Mini
If this is helpful or correct, assign points promptly.
