SIEBEL Adapter

Question

Hi,
I am working on Oracle - SIEBEL Integration using fusion middleware. Based upon initial analysis I have concluded that there are two methods avaialble.
(1) Using Siebel - Oracle Integration Pack: I have document which is for siebel version 7.8 and that does not support siebel version 8. Does any one has this integration pack document for version 8?
(2) Using Oracle SOA Siebel adapter: I am trying to create this adapter, but the installation and configuration documentation is not very good, does any one has step by step notes for this adapter installation and configuration?
Regds,

Answer 1

Thanks Shiva,
Just one quick question, For siebel adapter do I have to configure J2CA? Or I can skip J2CA configuration part? Actually I tried J2CA configuration, and after modifying server.xml and oc4j-ra.xml files now server is giving error. It is refusing to start now with log as following.
Any idea....???
Best Regards,
Dhaval Khamar
