Integration with PeopleSoft Applications Using Oracle SOA Suite 11g BPEL

Hi,
I'm integrating BPEL with Peoplesoft FSCM 9.0 Application on tools 8.49 using Oracle SOA Suite 11g. The BPEL invokes the web service method generated from Peoplesoft Component Interface in a synchronuos manner.
I have deployed the BPEL in Oracle SOA Suite 11g using Jdeveloper successfully but I have problem in configuring the BPEL node in Peoplesoft side using Oracle SOA Suite 11g(FMW) . I had done the integration of BPEL with Peoplesoft FSCM 9.0 on tools 8.49 using Oracle SOA Suite 10g earlier successfully by configuring BPEL node properties as follows:
BPEL CONSOLE : http://Host Name:8888/BPELConsole (System with Oracle SOA Suite 10g server for deployment)
BPEL DOMAIN : default
Using this BPEL node configuration, I was able to ping the BPEL console of Oracle SOA Suite 10g from peoplesoft and hence complete the integration successfully.
Now in order to acomplish Business rules and other functionality, the BPEL application has been developed in Oracle SOA Suite 11g using Jdeveloper 11g. This time I'm not able to configure the BPEL node in Peoplesoft for this integration as I'm assuming there is no separate BPEL console in Oracle SOA Suite 11g. All the BPEL deployments are administered in console (11g console used for deployment of BEPL)
http://Host Name:7001/em (System with Oracle SOA Suite 11g server - Fusion Middleware).
So when I Configured the BPEL node property in Peoplesoft as :
BPEL CONSOLE : http://Host Name:7001/em (System with Oracle SOA Suite 11g server for deployment)
BPEL DOMAIN : default
I'm not able to ping the Peoplesoft BPEL node to the Oracle SOA Suite 11g. Hence I'm not able to proceed with my integration.
When I searched the OTN discussion forum on BPEL console for Oracle SOA Suite 11g, all threads point that there is no separate BPEL console unlike Oracle SOA Suite 10g. Also most of the articles for Integration with Peoplesoft Application using SOA 11g do not state any specific configuration setting for property of Peoplesoft BPEL node in order to integrate with BPEL 11g. The examples published in OTN still point towards screen shots of integration using SOA Suite 10g.
So I'm not able to proceed in this regard.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Girish

Hi,
I found this document from the Oracle Open World 2009 (maybe you have found it too) :
"Integration with PeopleSoft applications using oracle soa suite 11g BPEL" --> [http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/fmw4apps/peoplesoft/pdf/oow2009-bpel-psft.pdf]
And this could be a little more simple, but have a good step-by-step tutorial.
[http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/fusion_middleware/fusion/soa/BPEL_PS848/OBE_PSFT_BPEL_848.htm]
I think you must read this docs by now, but never come amiss.
Hope this can help you,
By the way, if you can help me with this I'll appreciate it a lot.

Java Embedding bug in SOA Suite 11g BPEL??

I am beginning to wonder if there is a 'bug' in the SOA Suite 11g, BPEL, Java Embedding activity? Need some help as soon as possible – does the Java Embedding activity work in SOA Suite 11g?
Have tried the following on Jdev 11.1.1.1 and Jdev 11.1.1.3 – get the same error message (see below for error message).
Thanks for any help - Casey
I created a simple composite app by:
1.     Created a Composite with BPEL Process
2.     Created a BPEL variable by the name of Variable and a Simple Type of string      ({http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}string)
3.     Added an Assign activity (Assign_1) and assigned the value of “Test Var” to the variable Variable using a Copy operation.
4.     Then, after the assign activity, added a Java Embedding activity (Java_Embedding_1) with Java Version set to 1.5 and the following code:
+try{+*
String var;*
var=(String)getVariableData(Variable);*
System.out.println(var);*
+} // end try+
+catch(Exception ex){+*
System.out.println(ex.getMessage());*

Java Embedding bug in SOA Suite 11g BPEL??

Truncate all Instances in SOA SUITE 11g BPEL SOAINFRA SCHEMA

Hi Guys!
We are running Oracle SOA SUITE 11g + BPEL, Version 11.1.1.3.0 (PS2)
We running out of disk space issues in a database due to large number of test instances in dehydration storage.
Is there any way to TRUNCATE all tables in order to clean up instances from BPEL engine (SOAINFRA schema)
Oracle provides this functionality (purge scripts and implemented procedures in a database) but this is a deleting approach and it doesn't work with millions of instances in a storage. Deleting instances from GUI doesn't work at all.
1. We are looking the way to truncate all instances in a database rather then delete them which takes ages and doesn't work properly in case of huge amount of instances.
2. We would like wipe out all instances without any time restrictions.
Any feedback, script from you guys would be much appreciated.
Cheers!!

Hi,
There still no solution for truncating tables. Looks like we have to look into Oracle's procedures in delivered with SOA SUITE installation.
I posted an article about deleting large number of instances in SOA Suite 11g. It does the job in a pretty fast way.

Oracle SOA Suite 11g (BPEL Process) Dependency with Database

Folks,
Oracle SOA Suite 11g requires a relational DB like Oracle, SQL Server to maintain the Metadata for the SOA & Related Components.
Can you plz let me know with your experience - what should happen to a running BPEL Process if the database (SOAINFRA) is down? Being very specific -
1, Does/Should end-point become inaccessible? Or Does service remains accessible but throws service remote-fault execption?
2, What happens to a process which is in running state?
My experience in these scenarios is not encouraging; we have notices the following -- during the time when our SOAINFRA database is down, the in-process (running) instances are left in a running state. These instances do not complete or move forward even when the Database is back. These instances do not provide any information in the Enterprise Manager.
Also, if DB is down WSDL's are still accesssible, is this right way?
If this is how SOA does work then I would doubt for its merit……...your thought plz????
Thanks & Regards
Shyam Kumar

I am not posting here because I'm smart but because your questions look interesting.
during the time when our SOAINFRA database is down, the in-process (running) instances are left in a running stateYou know that BPEL is a state-full product and it needs database support for persisting the process of state so if database goes down it is an expected behavior that processes may stuck in the same state where they were when DB went down. I don't see anything wrong with it.
These instances do not complete or move forward even when the Database is back.Instances should auto/manually recoverable. If this is not the case then you may raise a SR with support.
These instances do not provide any information in the Enterprise Manager. What information you could not find? Can you be more clear on this?
Also, if DB is down WSDL's are still accesssible, is this right way?Yes, again it's expected because design time data also gets stored in DB only and hence if DB goes down, any design time data may not be accessible.
If this is how SOA does work then I would doubt for its merit……...your thought plz????Why so? Alternative of DB is physical memory and that I don't think is perfect for long running BPEL processes and their heavy design time data. Moreover, it will create problems in terms of auditing, support and maintenance. If your requirement is such that it does not need any long running BPEL processes and even auditing is not required and use case is simple routing and transformation with no DB dependency then you may go for OSB which is a stateless product. BPEL is generally used for long running processes and hence DB is the best option, in my opinion at least.

Does the AS2 adpater is included by default in the SOA suite 11g or BAM

Hi,
I wanted to know that does the AS2 adpater comes by default with the SOA Suite 11g package or with BAM or we do need to have a seperate licensing for the adapter.
Thanks in Advance,
Jignesh

Hello Jignesh,
Oracle B2B (part of Oracle SOA suite 11g) supports AS2 exchange protocol. I don't think you need a separate license for that but still it would be better to confirm it once with your local Oracle Sales representative.
For Oracle B2B related info, please refer -

SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g? what are the major changes in these two?

Hi Experts,
I am keen in knowing about Soa Suite 11g. SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g, BPEL changes? what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Is now OSB is part of Soa Suite 11g? it would be helpful for us to know what are the major changes and updates or modifications came in 11g.
Please share this valuable information.
Is there still any version is in progress from Oracle, which is yet to be officially launched from oracle?

what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Few major changes to enlist are that SOA suite 10g was using Oracle Application Server (OC4J) however 11g is on Weblogic and 11g is based on SCA. B2B is now part of SOA suite itself and OSB can share a domain with SOA. You may refer below link to know few more -
http://blogs.oracle.com/soabpm/2010/03/11gr1_patchset_2_111130_soa_fe.html
Is now OSB is part of Soa Suite 11g? OSB has a separate installer but can share a domain with SOA and SOA-direct binding is also supported now. Refer below link to know more about new features in OSB 11g -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/relnotes.1111/e10132/osb.htm#CJACHEHJ
Is there still any version is in progress from Oracle, which is yet to be officially launched from oracle?No major release is planned. Patches for 11g R1 may come.

Business Rules (SOA 11g)

We are facing one issue while implementing an use-case in Business Rules (SOA 11g). In brief it is defined as below:
There is an aggregate function used to calculate the sum of all nodes and based on the result, we need to send notifications.
In the Rule Set of a Business Rule project, we have created one Decision table and have defined our Rule conditions there (say Price > 500 and Price < 500).
Above these conditions, we have defined aggregate function ( under advanced category), where we will calculate the sum of all Price nodes in a variable.
And finally, we have Actions set for both the Rule Conditions, whereas notifications will be sent to the desired user.
While executing this project, we are getting the below mentioned error:
Non Recoverable Business Fault :encountered ')' when expecting one of: "instanceof" ...":" ...">" ..."<" ..."?" ..."==" ..."<=" ...">=" "!="
..."||" ..."&&" ..."+" ..."-" ..."*" ..."/" ..."%" ..."**" ..."++" ..."--" ..."[" ..."." ..."(" ...
Note: There is a check-box above each action item, where we can select whether we want to execute this action or not. Now when we select only one out of these Actions ( say 1st one), and other one is unchecked and we execute the project by giving input according to 1st Rule condition, the project runs successfully. But when both the Action Items are checked, it fails.
If anybody has faced the similar issue, please revert.

I would advice you to make use a debug-function to be able to run locally in JDeveloper.
Then try to make the easiest case possible work, and then thange to what you really want.
Whaty type is the input to the rule, is it a complex type ?
Are you running from BPEL ?

Hi,
It would be helpful to others if you say which version/patch you are using.
To answer number 1, that has always been a feature of business, you don't get the option to overwrite, its always been a pain.
I have not come across issue 2 and I am sure I have imported many rules with the cross dimensional operator in them ->
Cheers

Oracle SOA Suite 11g VS BPEL PM 11g

Hello,
What is the difference between SOA Suite 11g and BPEL Process Manager 11g?
I understand BPEL PM is a component of SOA Suite 11g.
What capabilities does SOA Suite offer more than BPEL Process Manager 11g?
When does a customer choose BPEL PM 11g over SOA Suite 11g? I assume BPEL PM 11g will be less in terms of cost.
Thanks,
Ram

Ram,
What is the difference between SOA Suite 11g and BPEL Process Manager 11g?BPEL Process Manager 11g is a standalone product and it is part of SOA Suite 11g as well. SOA Suite 11g is actually a group of products and it includes -
Oracle BPEL Process Manager
Oracle Service Bus
Mediator
Oracle Business Activity Monitoring
Oracle Web Services Manager
Oracle Business Rules
Oracle Human Workflow
Oracle Event Processing
JDeveloper and ADF
Adapters
Oracle Entitlements Server Basic
Oracle B2B
So you cannot compare SOA Suite with BPEL.
What capabilities does SOA Suite offer more than BPEL Process Manager 11g?Oracle BPEL Process Manager enables enterprises to model, deploy, and manage BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) processes. It includes a BPEL business process modeler, a scalable BPEL run-time engine, an extensible WSDL binding framework, and a monitoring console. So use of BPEL is limited till business process implementation only whereas SOA Suite offers complete middleware SOA solution.
When does a customer choose BPEL PM 11g over SOA Suite 11g? I assume BPEL PM 11g will be less in terms of cost.Yes, if you want to implement BPEL processes only then you can buy only BPEL Process Manager 11g but if you are looking for to implement a complete middleware SOA solution then licensing SOA Suite 11g will be the better option.

Creating simple Business Rules in BPEL process

Hi,
I have an environment consisting of SOA Suite 11g running on Weblogic Server. I'm using JDeveloper 11g for development.
Scenario
I have a BPEL process which starts off by polling a DB table and I then assign the input to a Recieve activity's InputVariable. I have a 'Number' column which will contain a number between 1 and 3. I then require Business Rules (BR) to be set up which read this value, and based on the number, assign a 'Name' string (which is to be the output variable from the business rules) to be used later on in BPEL process.
Problem - I have followed the basic tutorials available in order to set up the business rules, but am getting numerous errors. Firstly, I sometimes find that my input/output variables created during setup of BR component and the XSD based on this, does not have XML Faces automatically created for it (therefore have to create it myself by clicking on the + button and doing this for each element of XSD). When I do get this working, I then double-click on my Business Rules activity in my BPEL process, only to find that the input/output variables here no longer are assignable to my BR input/output variables as I get the following error "Exception: Problem Building Schema!".
I am not sure why this is, but suspect that my XSD (which is very simple anyway) or the setup steps I follow to define the link to my XSD, are wrong.
I have taken the following steps so far:
1. Create empty BPEL process
2. Set up polling adapter to poll DB table
3. Create Receive activity and assigned polled input to created variable
4. Add Business Rules component to composite and set up and create dictionary here. Also set up inputs/outputs to be in form of my XSD elements.
5. Add Business Rules component to my BPEL process and configure this to include input/output variables (*This is where error occurs*)
6. Go back to .rules component in composite to define rule and define rule
Upon deployment, I get many errors most of which pertain to "Unresolved XML element... make sure XML element +xxxxx+ is defined in one of WSDL's that are referenced by the deployment descriptor."
I have only imported a simple XSD containing two elements to this project. The other XSD is the one of my polling adapter. I've not created any input/output variables for the overall BPEL process as didn't think I was required to.
Can you please help in getting this process doing the simple activities described at the top.
I appreciate your help.

Hi,
Create a project with BPEL composite
Now drag a business rule
Now create input variable of type ur requestelement
and output variable of type response element
Now in rules designer page take decision table
and then craete a condition (inputelement.input > 1000) and in the rule select true
now create another rule select false
Npw create an action with assertion and select the parameterized box there
now in designer page for first rule assign some value (say 500) and for second rule some value(100)
Now in bpel u have to assign a value to input var of BR
Deploy the process
If u supply 10000 u will get 500
if u supply 100 u will get 100
In the same way u can do by using If-Then
You can use facts and bucketsets according to ur requirement
