Oracle Workflow HomePage?

Hallo,
I'm running a Oracle 10g R2 DB with OWB 11g on Windows XP.
I needed to deploy workflows, zo I installed the Workflow Server using 'wfinstall.bat'. Everything works fine,- no problems at all.
Then I needed to kill a flow process. One can read that is wise to use the Oracle Workflow HomePage or to kill the process by a certain procedure.
It seems that there is no Oracle Workflow HomePage installed and also the mentioned procedures are not there.
Question: How can I install this Oracle Workflow HomePage at my system?
Thank you
S.

Detlef,
Thank you. This is so confusing. I see that there something has to happen with the Oracle Universal Installer. But what are the right 'middle tier' components?
Question:Is there a step by step documentation how to install this 'middle tier'?
Thank you
S.

Oracle Workflow WF_IN Listener doesn't dequeue message


I'm using Oracle Interconnect 10g (ver. 10.1.2.2) and has been struggle trying to make the workflow WF_IN listener to work and have no luck so far.


I have done the following: 
1. Create a Service Components for Workflow Inbound Listener from Oracle Application Server Control 10g. 
2. Create WF_IN Listeners from Oracle Workflow Setup Check All homepage 
3. Create 3 Event Subscriptions from Oracle Workflow homepage: 
a. Event: oracle.apps.wf.event.agent.create 
b. Event: oracle.apps.wf.event.event.create 
c. Event: oracle.apps.wf.event.subscription.create 
4. Create Oracle Workflow Publish and Subscribe Activity Event from iStudio and deploy them to Oracle Workflow


Regardless, the message that is in WF_IN Queue is always in ready state (state 0) and never dequeued. I have no idea what steps am I missing here. It just seems that the listener I created doesn't work or maybe not configure properly. So, if anybody can help me out here, I really appreciate. Here is the screenshot of the configuration I mentioned above.

Edward, you see, when you create WF_IN Listener from Oracle Workflow Setup Check All homepage, really they implemented as database JOBs.
So, connect to database as sys and select from DBA_JOBS, look if there is any job with text ("what" column) like "Wf_Event.Listen('WF_IN')".
If there is one or several - check there status, if they are working correctly (broken = 'N', failures = 0).
If broken = 'Y' or failures > 0, than you have problems with them!
In this case check if you have set database parameters job_queue_processes=10, and aq_tm_processes=1 as recommended for Workflow.
If it does not help, try to execute dequeue comment manually:
begin
Wf_Event.Listen('WF_IN');
end;
Good luck!

Oracle Workflow 2.6 with Oracle 8.1.7 for linux

Is Oracle Workflow Server 2.6 available for Linux as a
standalone product against an Oracle 8.1.7 database?
Oracle Workflow does not seem to be included in the Integration
Server option with the 8.1.7 installation.
I've only found the Oracle Workflow Server included with the 9i
database. Will this work with 8.1.7 as well or does it require
9i db?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Issue in notification API for oracle workflow

Hi,
I am facing issue in sending oracle workflow notification. i have created a simple workflow with a process.
I wrote one package which is creating adhoc role and sending the notification through api I(wf_notification.send).
I am able to get the notification as well as email notification but without attribute values. My workflow attributes are getting replaced by null, but message body is appearing.
Please help me, its urgent.

I doubt that Oracle 7 DB is not supported. You may consider raising a SR with support.

Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 Migration

Hi,
One of our customer wants to migrate Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 from http server to WLS server and they are following the this blog :
https://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/entry/owb_11gr2_tip_downloading_and_installing_workflow_monitor_264
Now they have following questions ?
- Is this new setup ( WLS+Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 ) is supported by oracle officially ? If not then what is other option ?
- Where can we find the software - Oracle Database 10gR2 Companion CD(10.2.0.1) ? it is not available on OTN. Can we get the MOS link for it ?
Best Regards,
Anurag

For your second question, pl see MOS Doc 1476075.1

Custom Workflow using Oracle Workflow in ContentDB

Hi,
Could we use custom workflow which is made using Oracle Workflow instead of BPEL.
Regards,
Yulisar

Having registered custom workflows for Content DB via Enterprise Manager, potentially you can use any tool capable of dequeuing/enqueing messages from the IFS_BPEL_OUT/IFS_BPEL_IN advanced queues as part of a custom workflow process.
By default, we assume you are using Oracle BPEL PM with its Advanced Queue adapater to process the queue messages. However, there is nothing stopping using Oracle Workflow or any tool for that matter.
HOWEVER!!! Warning!!! There is a high probability that Content DB will drop the bundled Oracle Worflow installation in the near future. What this means, is that you should consider installing/configure/patching your own separate Oracle Workflow installation and not rely on the bundled Content DB solution which is used internally for Serial and Parallel Approval workflows.
thanks,
Matt.

How to commit a transaction in Oracle Workflow

Hi All,
Oracle says there should not be any commit in Oracle WF .It is the responsbility of the calling program to Call Commit.
I have the following Requirement:-
I want to insert a record in one of the custom table, when a record is saved in one of the Oracle Apps Form( for e.g. insert a record in the custome table when user creates PO.)
What I have done is :-
1) Added a subscription to one of the seeded events that is raised when user saves a record in the Oracle apps.
2) Designed a Custom Function, that is called when the above subscription is triggered off.
3)The above custom function inserts a record in the custom table.
Q ) where to write a Commit ( as this custom function is called from the WF and WF says, dont put commit in the WF,it should be called by the callling program)
Can also you explain me , when user presses the Save button on the Oracle standard form--> that calls the Oracle API to create a record in the DB and commit , ---> then the event is raised and trigger offs all the subscriptions where does it commit then?
Thanks

Hi,
The commit should be done by the form, or whatever raises the business event.
The API fires the event in the same transaction (unless the subscription is deferred), and then the commit is issued. This commits the transaction, and all actions of the event subscription.
If the subscription is deferred, then the concurrent request which processes the subscription will issue the commit on completion.
HTH,
Matt

Urgent help needed in inserting data into a custom table in oracle WorkFlow

Hi
I am trying to get data from the WF and insert into a custom table..
I read that workflow procedures WONT allow commits...
Oracle Workflow will not support autonomous commits in any procedure it calls directly. If you need to perform commits, then embed your SQL in a subprocedure and declare it as an autonomous block. This subprocedure must be capable of being rerun. Additionally, note that Oracle Workflow handles errors by rolling back the entire procedure and setting its status to ERROR. Database updates performed by autonomous commits cannot be rolled back, so you will need to write your own compensatory logic for error handling
Have anyone did this..
Please give me some idea ...It is urgent
I am getting data using getitemattribute..and try to insert it into a custom table

How to run Oracle workflow in windows 7 os

Hi,
Am new to oracle workflow.
I have installed oracle workflow successfully in my laptop.
After installation I dont see any shortcut's in my desktop.
Can any one sugess me how to run oracle workflow.
Steps to begin from basic level.
Thanks
Balaji

You mean to say you installed Workflow Builder on your laptop? See that Oracle Workflow has a Client Side (WF Builder), a backend Server side and middle application side.
Assuming you successfully installed the client side then you must have a group of programs called Oracle OUIHome and there one called Application Development. There you should be able to find Workflow builder.

Are can you choose to install the workflow server only. When i start the install file with the universal installer i can only choose forYou need additional Oracle Database Companion CD, for link look at this message

Process flows without Oracle Workflow?

I am using OWB 10.2, running with a 10.2 database. I want to create a new workflow module, package, and flow, and execute it the process flow using the OWB scheduler. The documentation implies that this configuration is possible, but when I create the workflow module it wants an Oracle Workflow connection for the location. I get the feeling that I'm overlooking something basic in the documentation.
QUESTION:
1) Is Oracle Workflow REQUIRED to create, deploy, and execute a process flow?

Hi,
Oracle Workflow is required for deploying processflow.
Where did you read in documentation about possibilities of running processflows without OWF? OWB instalation guide tells:
"If you plan to use Warehouse Builder process flows, you need to install Oracle Workflow to enable deployment."

Oleg

URGENT: Oracle Workflow Error: API-10020 on Creation of OWB Process Flows

I am trying to use Oracle Workflow to create Process Flows, in order to link together various mappings and components in Oracle Warehouse Builder. However, in the process flow editor window when I attempt to drag an object such as a mapping onto the editor panel, I get an error message stating the below:
API-10020: Unable to determine if the map is a PLSQL or SQLLDR map, please correct the map or choose another map.
All my maps are in PLSQL, and the language setting is set to this. I have tried modifying the langauge settings to see if it makes a difference but with no luck. My colleague believes this is a known bug in Oracle Workflow and there is a patch available to correct it.
Can anyone help with this query please? Thank you for your time.

In some versions of OWB (10.1, 10.2) The mapping property will display PL/SQL, but will actually be set to NULL in the repository (which will cause PL/SQL to be displayed as default).
The fix is easy enough: in the developer navigator, right-click on the mapping and go to configure and set the generation language first to something other then PL/SQL (you should get an error) and then place it back to PL/SQL. This should force the GUI to reset the parameter.
Alternatively, use OMB*Plus:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'MAPPINGNAME' SET PROPERTIES \
(GENERATION_LANGUAGE) VALUES ('PLSQL');
Good Luck,
Robbert

Calling Oracle Workflow in Real-Time

I want to modify the logic in Oracle Apps (both Oracle self-service (pure HTML and JSP) and Oracle Forms applications) to make real-time calls to a mainframe system. The page needs to take different actions depending on the data from the mainframe system.
I want to avoid actually customizing the Apps and Forms pages if possible due to customization maintenance and support issues. I have been told that I can use Oracle Workflow to modify the actions of the pages without having to resort to customizations, as calls to Workflow are already embedded. Is this true, and if so, how would I go about inserting a call to a mainframe system?
I am considering mainframe calls using either a proprietary ODBC driver from a third-party vendor, or devising some sort of SOA interface to the mainframe (I know it would require custom development on the mainframe side).
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the sbRIO cards only have 1 FPGA on them. So when you load the second FPGA code, the first is being overwritten. You need to make a single FPGA VI that can handle both functions. If you post your code, we can give more detailed advice.

OWB process flow & Oracle Workflow

Hi,
In order to deploy the OWB process flow packages, is it necessary to have Oracle workflow installed on the Target server? When I tried to deploy a process flow package to the target database (10gR2 db), it required a user called owf_mgr. As far I know, owf_mgr is the admin user for workflow. Can this feature work without OWF being installed?
Thanks for your help

Oracle Workflow 2.6.3 Installation

Hi,
On a Redhat Linux server 3, I have installed Oracle 10g Infrastructure and Middle Tier. I have also a 10g Databse installed on this machine. I want to install Oracle Workflow 2.6.3.
I used the Contnet Management SDK 10g(9.0.4.0) CD and run the installer. AS mentioned in Oracle Note:265554.1, stopped the installation up on the Workflow Configuration Assitant. Then changed the wfinstall.csh file as mentioned in the note. Then executed the wfinstall.csh from command prompt. This invokes a GUI which ask for few parameters.
I would appreciate if you help me in filling this parameters.
1. What is that Sys password? Is it the password for Infrastructure databse or that of the 10g database.
I tried with infrastructure password and connection details. This installtion hangs at the following.
WorkflowCA: /opt/oracle/product/904_portal/bin/sqlplus OWF_MGR/<WFCA WF
PASSWORD> @/opt/oracle/product/904_portal/wf/sql/wfcorec.sql OWF_MGR <WFCA WF
PASSWORD>
When I tried with 10g database, it is not connecting. It shows sys connect failure error.
I am able to connect to both infrastructure and 10g database from Sqlplus locally and using Jdeveloper from remote machines.
All the web urls (EM/PORTAL) are working.
Also on general ,
1. Can the workflow 2.6.3 installed to the on the 10g Portal database? Does it require a seperate database? Can this database co-exist in the same Server?
Please help with your suggestions.

Vinod,
The SYS password is the SYS password of the database into which you wish to install the workflow server.
I would recommend you connect to SYS to the database separately to test the connection- sqlplus sys/<syspwd>@<db> as sysdba
Also, what install are you trying to use? Just workflow or 10gAS and workflow ?
if you are just looking for oracle workflow 2.6.3 to be installed on a 10g database without any 10gAS, you can use the workflow server shipped with the 10g database.
If you are using workflow shipped with the 10gAS, you are on the right track- install workflow from the CMSDK cd onto any database of you choice.
Hope this helps...
