Oracle iLearning - customization (localization, design)

Hello,
We started translating and customizing Oracle iLearning in Lithuanian language through the Admin part Configurable Product Text menu item. We also applied our custom design through the Configurable Themes menu item. But the localized login page is showed only when the session ends. When the user presses log out he is redirected to the English login page version (though in both situations the design of the page is the one that we applied). We have also applied the 8219125 patch but it didn’t help. How to achieve that the localized login page would be showed in both situations? Is it the only way to create the login page? Is there a detailed description how to do that? How to deal with remember password page?
What is more, how to translate the months and weeks in the Calendar? Are those terms placed somewhere in database? Could You point out the exact location?
And we are not able to adjust the custom design to the Admin part of the site through the Configurable Themes menu item. How to achieve that?
Thank You,
Vaida

Vaida,
Be aware that iLearning is (not yet) certified for IE8, this could be the reason why you see the original login page when you log out of iLearning. If this is not the case, you can contact Oracle Support. They will be able to help you.
The configurable theme (except the logo) only applies to the learner interface, not to the admin interface.
Regards
Anders

Oracle iLearning 5.0 on Windows and email notifications issue

Hi!
We are upgrading from iLearning 4.3 to iLearning 5.0 on Windows 2000 server and I have a question related to that.
iLearning 5.0 is certified for Windows.
The accompanying release.txt states that:
--'Email', 'Email and Web' notifications options for Learner Rating and Authorized Enrollment/Unenrollment are not available on Windows platforms. Only web-based notifications should be used.
Through a Technical Assistance request (TAR Number 4439000.992 ) I've found that this problem is due to the use of Workflow 2.6.2 stand-alone which requires sendmail, which is not available on Windows.
This worries me because I want the system to be able to:
* notify admin when authorization is needed for enrollment
* notify course participants about changes or a cancelled course.
* Certification reminder and expiration
* Assessment submission
* Notification to all learners currently enrolled in an offering
The suggested workaround from Metalink is to use a Unix/linux server.
Metalink suggestion:
"you can set up a notification mailer on UNIX to work with stand-alone Workflow
hosted on Windows. The following MetaLink article is a step-by-step guide on how
to do this: Note:254973.1 How To Configure UNIX Sendmail To Work With Oracle Workflow Running On Windows
This would be useful if UNIX was an option for me. It is not.
I have some questions:
1)Can I use WorkFlow 2.6.3.5 on windows with iLearning 5.0?
I know Workflow 2.6.3.5 is working with MS Exchange.
2)Can I use sendmail in some form or shape?
IIS 5.0 (or 4.0) has a mail gateway that can be utilized by a sendmail program.
Sendmail software for windows:
http://www.glob.com.au/sendmail/
http://www.indigostar.com/sendmail.htm
http://www.ntsendmail.com/
http://www.windowsitpro.com/Windows/Article/ArticleID/5289/5289.html
Has anyone tried any of theese?
I'd like to make a suggestion to my IT department on how to solve this issue.
Thanx for any help in advance :-)
Kristian Amlie, Bergen Norway

There are a couple of patches available that allow a customer to upgrade their Oracle iLearning database to 10g and with that, upgrade Oracle Workflow to version 2.6.3 which supports email notifications through workflow on windows.
Patch #s are 4321769 and 4485520
Thanks!

Oracle iLearning 6.0 Installation

Hi,
Am going to install oracle iLearning 6.0 on Redhat 5U8.
For this certification matrix i need oracle application server 10.1.3.1.0 software, while i am searching, oracle soa suite, only available in this version(10.1.3.1.0).
oracle application server and oracle soa suite both are same?
Please suggest me, which software i need to install iAS or soa suite for this iLearning installation.
Any step by step oracle iLearning 6.0 installtion document available?
Thanks.

If you to to edelivery and choose iLearning Applications for Linux x86, the pack includes iLearning 6.0 and related DB and Apps Server software in the pack (albeit slightly older versions of DB and Apps server). Looks like you can then download patchsets for DB and Apps Server from MyOracle Support to upgrade these.
Steps from there
Install and patch Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.2+)
Database Created
Install and patch Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.5
Install iLearning 6.0

Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

hello,
I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
someone there had the same concerns?
cordially

Hi,
so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.

Oracle XML Gateway Message Designer for Oracle EBS R12.1.2

Goog Day to everyone!
I'm Looking for the tool "XML Gateway Message Designer". I have found in Metalink(Oracle Support) the note ID 557101.1, here explain how to get the message designer for Oracle Apps R12. It says that you have to download the patch 4066964. This patch install the Oracle Workflow Builder (2.6.3.0.1) and the Oracle XML Gateway Message Designer (2.6.3). This tools are supported to be used with Oracle Apps 11.5.10 and 12.0.X.
The release of Oracle Apps that I'm using is 12.1.2.
Questions:
- The version of the Message Designer that you get from patch 4066964 works for OraApps R12.1.2 ?
- The version of the Workflow Builder that you get from patch 4066964 works for OraApps R12.1.2 ?
- If the version of Message Designer doesn't work with OraApps R12.1.2, where can I find one that works with it?
Thanks for your advice.
LCJ

Hi Hussein,
Thanks for replay.
I downloaded the rapid install package from e-delivery. The B53824-01_4of4 was the OWB installer, and it has a readme file that says: "+This patch contains Oracle Workflow Builder (version 2.6.3.0.1) and Oracle XML Gateway Message Designer (version 2.6.3). These client tools are supported for use with an Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1 instance.+"
I believe, as well as you, that it should be work for 12.1.2.
I'm gonna make some test, and in a few days I will post my results.
Thanks for the help.

Oracle Apps Customizations

I would like some information on best practices for Oracle Apps Customizations –
specifically database objects (i.e. tables, PLSQL). I wanted to know the pros/cons for
isolating the custom database objects in their own custom schemas or putting
all the customizations in the APPS schema. And if i put them in Apps schema...what issue can i face later while upgrading
thanks

I wouldn't place everything in the APPS schema. There are already many thousands of
objects there and there is no reason to do so. Keep it clean and put it in the own schema.
It is easier to maintain it then.
Other than that, think about not querying the tables of APPS (or other schemas) directly.
Many of them are transactional and have a poor response time.
I have done a similar thing two years ago and it has been working without any problems.
I posted some screenshots of one of the applications related to APPS here:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:59
My ApEx instance is located on a separate server and uses DB Links to access
APPS schema - Oracle Business Suite 11i.

Oracle iLearning - playing content is very slow

Hello,
We have problem with iLearning speed. When the content is played in the application server, it shows the content really quickly, but when it is played on the local PC, the speed decreases dramatically. We have checked the servers, the network, everything is fine. What we found, that the speed of viewing learning content on local PC is fast (same as it viewed on server) when no Java is installed (of course in this case we always get errors, and it is impossible to view tests). It looks like, problem can be with Java. Maybe it can be Java configuration problem on server side?
Thank you.
Vaida

Hello Scott,
"When the content is played in the application server, it shows the content really quickly" - yes, I mean when the learner enters the Oracle iLearning site in the application server (locally where the application server is installed) and launches the course (it is played in the Oracle iLearning course player).
"but when it is played on the local PC, the speed decreases dramatically" - I mean that the learner enters the Oracle iLearning site outside the application server (on his own computer) and launches the same course with Oracle iLearning player.
Regards,
Vaida

Using Captivate quizzes in oracle ilearning 5.0

Hi,
I guess this question goes out to anyone familiar with BOTH oracle iLearning AND Adobe Captivate..
We are using Captivate 2 to develop e-learning content, often including quizzes / tests.
Our current LMS is Oracle iLearning 5.0, and we are experiencing some troubles trying to apply the in-built Captivate quiz for one of our courses.
1. I have created a simple test of 7 questions in Captivate, all weighing 1 point. You need at least 6/7 points to pass the test.
2. In total we plan to give the user 3 shots at passing the test. No clues as to whether (s)he submits the correct answer is therefore given during the test.
So far so good, this works well within iLearning (after having tried 3 times, you're not able to access the questions any longer), but here's the catch:
* If the user gets eg. 4/7 on the first effort, he or she obviously fails (this works), and the RCO is marked as incomplete, the user still has these 4 points the next time he or she takes the test, so if the next result is 3/7 th user gets a total of 7/7 thus passing the test.
Does anyone have a clue of what's causing this error? How do we reset the score for each time? Is there anything special I need to configure on the publish settings / quiz settings in Captivate that I might have forgottten / not know of? I am not very familiar with SCORM, so perhaps there is sth I need to define in the mastery score of the SCORM manifest?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thx in advance

This is definitely something on the Captivate side, and it's possible that it is related to not having a mastery score for the learning onject (which you can set manually in ilearning if need be on the learning object properties screen.)
Do you have debugging enabled for the ilearning cmi adapter ( "?lms_debug=on" added to the end of the cmi adapter url)? If so, run the quiz a couple times like you describe and view the java console output. That might give us a clue as to what the content is doing.
Also, try it with a mastery score and see if the behavior is different.
I will also check with my contact at Adobe...

Customize the design of the parameter window

Hi,
My manager asked me something and I want to be sure of the answer.
I want to know if I can customize the design of the parameter window in Crystal Report XI or the only way to do that it's to create a .Net application and call the report by it.
Regards,
Hugo

Hi Hugo
Following are the answers for your queries:
Can we modify the size of the parameter window
-No
Can we modify the background color of the parameter window
-No
Can I create a string parameter and have the calendar with this parameter in the window ?
-With a string datatype paramter we cannot have the calendar window.
When I create a parameter for exemple BeginDate when the window appear at the right I always have @BeginDate can I hide this label ?
-Go to Field Explorer->parameter and rename the paramter by removing the '@' sign.
Please let us know if you need any further information.

Unable to run Oracle Form Builder from Designer 10g

I am using Windows XP with Oracle Designer 9.0.4.5. From Design Editor, I select Run -> Oracle Forms, nothing happen. I am able to open Form Builder manually (C:\ORACLE\904\bin\ifbld90.exe). After I generated a module (form) from Designer, I have to open the FMB manually from Form Builder. In Designer 9i, I am able to open Form Builder from Designer. Is this a bug for Designer 10g?
Thanks,
Jim

Thanks for the response, Suresh,
I believe this is an installation/configuration issue.
I installed Oracle Developer Suite 9.0.4, which includes Form Builder, Report Builder, and Designer. System Path contains the ORACLE_HOME (c:\oracle\904\bin). I am able to start Form Builder from DOS command (ifbld90.exe). I am also able to start Report Builder (rwbuilder.exe) and Designer (des2k61.exe) from DOS. I am able to Run Oracle Report Builder from Designer, but just not Form Builder. I also checked the Windows registry settings and they seem alright to me.
thanks,
Jim

Downloading and installing Oracle iLearning

Hi.
I need a help with downloading and installing Oracle iLearning.
I have download Oracle iLearning 5.0, and I have Oracle Database 10.2.0.1 and Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2. I have installed all of this products. But iLearning does't work. Then I got message from Learning management forum, that Oracle iLearning works only on Oracle Application Server 9.0.4. I want to download it, but I can't find it on the Oracle site.
Tell me please, is there iLearning version, that works on Oracle AS 10g?
Or, what I should do, to work Oracle iLearning? Where I can download Oracle Application Server 9.0.4?

The main Downloads index http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/index.html has a section called Applications with a link to the E-delivery site, where you could find both iLearning and EBS with Oracle Learning Management.
