Installation error in Oracle Web Center 11.1.1.3.0

Hi,
I have downloaded the ofm_wc_generic_11.1.1.3.0 from OTN.
I installed the WLServer successfully. While trying to install Oracle Web Center 11.1.1.3.0 I am getting the below error.
Do I need to install Web Center Suite 11.1.1.2.0?
Is there any sequence to install?
Please help me.
INST-07010: Validation of Oracle Home location failed. The location specified does not exist.

Oracle Web Center Suite and Oracle Portal

1)What is Oracle Portal and why it is used?
2)What is Oracle Web Center Suite and why it is used?
3)What is the difference between Oracle Portal and Oracle Web Center Suite?

1) Oracle Portal is the Portal product that was deployed together with the application server before weblogic server. It is still used a lot for corporate intra and extranets. It is mosly used for intranets and extranets. When you bought the licence for the application server you automaticly had the licence for Oracle Portal. That's why it is so popular.
Oracle portal is not realy standard based. You mostly will create portlets with PL/SQL or PDK and not realy use the JSR168 standard.
No with Oracle Portal 11g you can consume JSR168 portlets using WSRP.
2) Oracle WebCenter suite is the next strategical choose of oracle in portal software. Webcenter is an enterprise 2.0 portal environment while oracle portal is more web 1.5 and has limited web 2.0 stuff. Oracle Portal comes with a complete UI for the user to use to create websites and groups but webcenter is more a framework to incoorporate enterprise 2.0 features into your own fusion web application. Webcenter suite comes with Webcenter spaces. THis is a complete UI to create collaborative websites.
Webcenter framework is a powerfull framework to create complete enterprise 2.0 sites.
3) The difference... Oracle Portal is an old product and will not be developt anymore. I've heard portal 11g will be the last version meaning support will stop at 2014. Webcenter is a new product to create state of the art enterprise 2.0 websites.
Oracle portals is not build on standard and is not realy standardbased meaning is you develop portlets for portal you will not be able to use them in other portals.
Webcenter on the other hand is completly standard based. It is JSR168 compliant and in the near future it will also support JSR286.
Oracle portal is PL/SQL based while webcenter is completly java based, based upon the ADF framework from oracle.
Because WebCenter is based upon the ADF framework you can use the complete ADF framework for your application. For example consuming webservices are very easy in webcenter. If you are using a service oriented architecture you will have lots and lots of work to integrate it with portal. With webcenter this is peace of cake.
Hope this helps you :)
If you have other questions, just let us know.

How to subscribe to a group space in Oracle Web Center application

Hi All,
I am a newbie to Oracle Web Center and playing in and around with the Oracle WebCenter Spaces..
At the time of creation of Group Space in Oracle WebCenter Application, there are two options :
1. Adding the members by the owner of the group space
2. Opening the open group space which allows others users can join by searching the specified GroupSpace and joining into that group space.
If i try to do like this, I was getting this error :
WCS#2010.07.21.15.05.39: Unable to send subscription notification to moderator(s). The reason is : Can not retrieve group space workflow configuration. Please contact administrator.
Can anyone please help me to solve this out..
Thanks in advance

Sandeep,
To get this notifications to work, you need to setup BPEL and connect WebCenter to your BPEL server.

Oracle Web Center New Features Demo

Hi,
Does anybody have oracle web center new features demo?
It will be great, If you can share it.
Documentation states that, It has features like below:
New capabilities to operate on multiple assets efficiently, including bulk deletion, approval, and bookmarking. These operations are conveniently available from search results screens. Operations can be executed by selecting multiple assets and pressing a single button.
But I can not perform bulk delete asset.
Documentation also states that, It has features like Drag And Drop:
My understanding from the documentation is an asset's attributes are dragged and dropped into advanced UI. Pls correct me, If I am wrong.
Is there any demo available for drag and drop feature of oracle 11g webcenter?
Documentation also states that, It has features like customizable dash board:
New customizable dashboard: A customizable dashboard is now provided out-of-the-box. Widgets to manage assignments, bookmarks, and checkouts are included. Widgets can be rearranged on the dashboard using simple drag-and-drop, and custom widgets can be added to satisfy unique business needs.
Pls let me know, where the dashboard is available and how to implement the above mentioned features.
Thanks And Regards

I was looking for more documentation like developer's guide , maybe a zip for evaluating whats offered in Oracle web center.
Any pointers ?

Oracle web services or WebLogic web services ?

On " Oracle® Fusion Middleware Introducing Web Services" I read that on Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g platform there are 2 type of web services :
1) SOA, ADF, and WebCenter services
2) WebLogic Web services (Java EE Web services)
But what is the difference ? both web services aren't based on java specification ? why there is the distinction ?
Anyone can help me ?
Edited by: kronos72it on Nov 18, 2009 4:43 AM

It depends what you intend to do. The Oracle WebServices stack adds dynamics (needed for BPEL, etc.) and the OWSM security interceptors to the stack. Both have different security policy models and are not interoperable in this sense. I would go for the Oracle stack as the OWSM security is much easier to administer...

pls provide some ideas to resolve this problem.

Hi Fahad,
I am sorry I am not sure what the solution to your issue is. However, I was wondering why you are not attempting to install Oracle 10g as opposed to 1.0.2.2.2?
I am guessng here but perhaps the 10g database is incompatible with a 1.0.2.2.2 install.
Hopefully someone else may be able to provide more useful feedback.

First, can you see the agent and host in EM? If not, then you'll need to follow these steps:
emctl secure agent
emctl start agent
emctl config agent addinternaltargets
emctl config agent listtargets
The host and agent must be "green" in EM to discover targets. The last command listtargets will show you what the agent has "auto-discovered". Not all targets can be auto-discovered.
Did you check the Auto Discovery Results to see if the targets are waiting for promotion? If they're not there, then you might have to "manually" discover them.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/discovery.htm#CBAEGHBH
For each target type, there could be additional pieces that you need to look for when discovering, for example for
SOA - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/install.121/e24215/disc_mon_soa.htm#GSSOA9921
IDM - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/install.121/e24215/idm_discover_config.htm#GSSOA10201

Oracle Web Center Portal - af:showDetailItem/ Client Listener using Javascript

Dear,
I wonder if it is possible to run a JavaScript function whenever a tab is selected in the component <af: panelTabbed /> which contains components <af: panelTabbed /> I need to run the function each time you select a tab, it is possible this??
Here my example:
<af:resource type="text/javascript">
                    function alertTabSwitch(disclosureEvent){
                        var tab = disclosureEvent.getSource();
                        if(tab.getDisclosed()==true){
                           alert("test tab : " + tab);
                           disclosureEvent.cancel();
</af:resource>
<af:panelTabbed id="pt1" styleClass="detalleAutoridad" dimensionsFrom="auto">
      <af:showDetailItem text="#{portalBundle.BIOGRAFIA}" id="sdi1" disclosed="true" persist="disclosed" clientComponent="true">
Thanks,
Best Regards.

Here is the code snippet, which is will call every time you click the tab.
<af:resource type="javascript">
function performOnTabSwitch(disclosureEvent){
    var tab = disclosureEvent.getSource();   //This is the tab to close
    if(tab.getDisclosed()==true){

Hi
1. Looks like you created a Clustered Domain, means one Admin Server and another managed server may be for WebCenter stuff.
2. Did AdminServer started properly and did you give correct username and password that you entered while creating the domain.
3. While starting the managed server with the command you gave, you need to provide username and password. Did you give the exact username and password. Because the error clearly says invalid username/password like Authentication failed.
4. NOW, by any chance did you Configured any external LDAP AD to this domain. If yes, try to make the default Authenticator as the first Authenticator by changing the order of authenticators. Also make sure that all Authenticators flags are set as SUFFICIENT OR OPTIONAL. For SOA, right now there is a limitation like Weblogic cannot look into multiple authenticators. It can have only one authenticator alive at a time. There is a workaround though. But see if this is the issue on your side.
Thanks

Implement blog and discussion forum using weblogic portal or web center

Hi All,
Has anybody implemented blog or discussion forum using weblogic portal or oracle web center?
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,
We are trying something similar. We are using a WebCenter application and using built in task flows. These can now be deployed as portlets on WebLogic portal.
Another approach i can think of is using Jive Services (Restful services) directly from a custom J2EE appplication (Exactly same thing which Oracle provided Task Flow does). This will give you more control.
For Wiki, there is no such alternative.

Venkat

Web Center app with ADF Security - login problem

I have a custome Oracle Web Center app.
I have a page.html with an embedded login form posting to j_security_check. I've configured the ADF security policies to redirect to a JSPX on successful login.
When I try the correct username/password, I get redirected not to the page I defined in ADF, but to the root page http://127.0.0.1:7101/MyApp-ViewController-context-root/
and i get
Error 403--Forbidden
I've checked the weblogic.xml as per http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2009/12/solving-error-403-forbidden-in-adf.html, all the required entries are there.
This works fine if i use a Login link with
destination="#{'/adfAuthentication?login=true&end_url=/faces/postLogin.jspx'} "
which redirects to the default login.html and then to the right page. I've copied the form from the default login.html into my master HTML page.
Hope my question is clear. Any suggestions why it is going to the wrong URL after login.
Is there anything specific I should see in the jazn-data.xml or web.xml regarding the post-login URL since i cant see that in either.
P.S. Have been advised to try here when I originally asked this in the WebCenter forum. Web Center app ADF Security - login problem
Edited by: new_to_webcenter on 18-Jan-2011 05:25

Thanks for your response Frank.
The web.xml has
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>adfAuthentication</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/adfAuthentication</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>valid-users</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/login.html</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/error.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
When configuring ADF Security via JDev , I chose "Redirect upon successful authentication" to the Welcome Page
"/faces/postLogin.jspx"
this then adds into web.xml
<servlet>
<servlet-name>adfAuthentication</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>oracle.adf.share.security.authentication.AuthenticationServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>success_url</param-name>
<param-value>/faces/postLogin.jspx</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
So the sequence which works is:
Login via the '/adfAuthentication?login=true&end_url=/faces/postLogin.jspx' and this redirects to login.html (OOTB form which posts to j_security_check) and then to the postLogin.jspx
I'm trying to do away with a Login link, and trying the simple login form embedded in my page alongwith other content.
So should the form be posting to j_security_check directly or to the adfAuthentication ?
