Owb 11 deploy process flow module - Java Exception

I tried to deploy a process flow module (under the schema OWF_MGR). This is the error message:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Thanks! I tried the deployment of process from OMB Plus and it's work correctly.
Do you if exist a patch for the OWB 11 client?

How to specify the Process Flow Module with SQLPLUS_EXEC_TEMPLATE.SQL ?

Hi, we have a couple of process flow modules that have PF Packages and Process Flows with the same name.
E.g
PFMOD1 (Module)
FILELOAD (Package)
PF1 (Pf)
PFMOD2 (Module)
FILELOAD (Package)
PF1 (Pf)
Normally we can specify "FILELOAD/PF1" as a paramater to the procedure SQLPLUS_EXEC_TEMPLATE.SQL in order to initiate the running of an OWB process flow but how can the system distinguish between modules ?
Anyone done this ?
Thanks
Paul

If you deployed the packages to the same location then the second deployment replaced the result of the first one (actually a new version of the process flow was created). You can execute only the latest version...

Please find below the steps I followed
1) Process Flows -> Locations
Created Process flow location with ORacle Work Flow and 2.6.2
2) Process Flows
Created Process Flow module
Created Process Flow Package

generated XML code successfully
3) Deployment manager
Register the Process flow location in owf_mgr/Owf_mgr successfully
pre-deployment is successful
when deploying I encountered the above error.
I want to execute the process flow from deployment manager itself.
Please help me in solving this problem. URGENT !!
Thanks in advance

Hi Jean-Pierre,
Thanks for your help,
Grant WHAT to OWF_MGR user?
I couldnt find the package named 'WB_RTI_WORKFLOW_UTIL'
in OWF_MGR but I cound find 'WB_RT_WORKFLOW_UTIL' package in it.
Is this some problem in my OWF_MGR schema?
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,

Remove deployed process flows

Hi there,
When deploying a process flow, what happens exactly ? I know deploying a mapping creates a db-package, but i can't find anything in my database referring to the deployed process flow.
After deploying a number of process flows and renaming them a couple of times, I'd like to remove the previously deployed processflows.
How and where can I do that ?
Thanks in advance,
Job

Hello Job,
I'm not 100% sure, but I guess that OWB deploys process flows using a java method oracle.apps.fnd.wf.WFXLoad.
Deployed workflows can be queried using the view OWF_MGR.WF_RUNNABLE_PROCESSES_V
If you want to clean up using Deployment Manager you
1) create a process flow package TEST with a valid process flow TEST (connect start and end activities)
2) rename the process flow package TEST to the ITEM_TYPE name from the view above
3) Deploy using Deploy Action=Drop
4) repeat steps 2) - 3) for each package you want to drop
5) Delete the TEST package in the main OWB window
By the way, when you deploy with Action=Create, you get an additional version of your process flow and the previous is outdated. When you use Action=Replace, all previous versions are deleted and a new process is created with VERSION=1.

Error while deploying process flow

hi All,
i am getting below error while deploying 1 process flow.
Description : Runtime User : OWBPC Started : 2011-06-02 19:18:06.0

i added only 1 mapping in process flow and mapping containing both tables in taret schema.
kindly tell me how to fix it.?

Error deploying process flows

hello, i'm trying to deploy process flows, getting this error. privileges on my workflow manager are set correctly but it looks like something is not ok with connection to database. workflow server looks ok and i can manage it through oracle workflow manager. everything else in owb works ok, i can deploy other objects with no problems.
this is only problem on my client computer, deployment works fine from server ?
any idea ?
already checked tnsnames, replaced host with ip, tnsping ok...

Hi,
Do you happen to use localhost to refer to the Oracle Workflow engine? You should use a DNS entry to refer to the Workflow engine. The way this works: when Warehouse Builder deploys to Workflow, it creates a database link back, using a DNS lookup to the machine. If you specify a non-DNS entry, then whatever comes back will be different from what you specified as a host name. This causes the problem. Please re-register the Oracle Workflow engine using a DNS name entry.
Thanks,
Mark.

API8028 when deploying process flow

I'm getting:
API8028: No signature is available for mapping MS_BLD_MPS_TO_STG because the generation language is undefined. Please set the generation language property of this mapping, or generate this mapping to set the generation language property to a default value.
when deploying process flow after having copied the database and process flows into a new project.
Any ideas?

This is a known bug from 10.2 and 11.1 that looks to have not been fixed by Oracle.
If you inspect the metadata tables in OWBSYS you will see the transitions existing from your source env but ones missing in the target env.
The issue arises when you remove and add transitions out of order in the source process flow (original in DEV), and why wouldn't you, especially if you have decided to add a new mapping.
I can't believe this bug still exists and in terms of a work around, delete all transitions in the source and re-point in order and that should make it fine for export and import into test, prod etc. You don't have to delete the operators, obviously if a mapping name changes delete the old one and pop the new one in.
Sorry I can't be more helpful, my current client has dropped process flows because of this.

Its woked fine for me for OWB 10.2.0.4 .... some steps are missing from code like
when you are connecting again it should be
OMBDISCONNECT
OMBCONNECT CONTROL_CENTER $CONN_TARGET_RT
OMBDISCONNECT
OMBCC '/KLINGEL_DWH'
OMBCONNECT CONTROL_CENTER $CONN_TARGET_RTI think you can try the same on different system .

Which version of Oracle workflow is required for owb 11.2 process flow.

Hi,
I want to implement process flow for my mapping.
But I am getting error as,
"The connection was succesful but failed to retrive workflow version."
Also OWF_MGR user is not created.
Database is oracle 11g on RHEL
and standalone OWB 11.2 on Windows.
Do I need to create user owf_mgr which have schema for workflow objects?
Also which version of oracle workflow required for process flow. Do I need to install
Oracle Workflow server at Oracle db server or it ll get installed with 11g.
Where I ll get the details steps to implement process flow from scratch.
Please help.

Warning while deploying Process Flow

Hi All,
When I try to deploy my process flow it give me following warning:
PRE-02212: Database link 'WB_LK_HD_PK' is a 'Fixed Name'. This could consider a security risk as it exposes username and password of the target user.
PRE-02213: Database name 'WB_LK_HD_PK' is deployed with a name which is not a global name compatible bacause the source and target instances have identical global names. You should ask your DBA to rename the target database and redeply it.
Did any body face similar problem before? What should I do to resolve this. It is working on my laptop and not on the development machine.
Regards,
Danish

Hi Danish,
It is an Oracle Database parameter your DBA can change in the spfile, or you can change yourself with Toad for example.
Parameter : GLOBAL_NAMES = TRUE or FALSE
If you choose TRUE, your DBLinks must have the same name as your database
If you choose FALSE, you can name your DBlink as you like

RPE-2062 when Deploying Process FLows

Hi,
I'm getting an error deploying a process flow that says that the process flow is currently got running processes. However when I go into workflow manager and do a find on active processes nothing is returned. The last execution did end badly when a workflow tablespace blew.
Can anyone suggest a method of finding the item_keys for these "running" jobs, or even a query to extract them from the wf repository ?
The full error message was:
RPE-2062-PACKAGE-HAS-INCOMPLETE-ACTIVITES: ItemType PROD cannot be dropped as it has running Processes. You must first abort all the running processes using the Oracle Workflow Monitor.
Cheers
Pavel

Whenever I have had this problem I have found that the easiest way to get round it is to run the WFRMITT.SQL script to drop the process from Workflow. After you do this you will be able to deploy the flow again.
You can find the script on the server where workflow is installed under ORACLE_HOME\wf\admin\sql\

Deploying Process Flows

Hi
I cannot seem to get OWB to recognise the Oracle Workflow install in our database. Workflow has been in stalled into a schema called OWF_MGR and when I look in there I seen all the expected tables and AQ's so I have no reason to doubt the install. However when I go to connect I receive a rtc-5347 schema doesn't contain a repository message.
Is there any other way to verify the install of OWF is valid?
What OWB configuration parameters other than the location being set to the correct WF version are required for this?
Cheers
Alasdair

Hi, Development here,
I have some questions to hopefully narrow down the non-performent area:
1. Where does the issue occur. Is it:
a) Directly after you press the 'deploy' icon on the toolbar, but before the Pre-deployment window appears.
b) Directly after pressing the 'Deploy' button on the pre-deployment window but before deployment has finished.
2. Do you have a Client-Server environment and in which case is the issue on the client, the server or both. This is likely to be memory related, so we are looking to a high memory usage.
3. Are you deploying the ProcessFlows with the Mappings or deploying the ProcessFlows on their own. You can deploy the mappings first in one stage and the Processflows in the next.

Richard

I can build, validate and generate Process Flows just fine. But every time I try to execute a Process Flow using OWB Deployment Manager, I'm getting a "RPE-01008: Recovery of this request is in progress". Execution of deployed Process Flows using Oracle Workflow Interface works just fine.
Anyone has an idea?
Thanks and regards
Andreas Kopp

Hi Dirk-Jan,
youÃre right, there are some ugly-looking NUllPOinterExceptions in that log file. However, I cannto interpret them:
