Starting repository browser

How to start repositry browser on linux server its urgent
advance thanks
subbu

Solved this after some trawling through xml configuration files on the server.
The file C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\j2ee\config\http-web-site.xml contains the reference to keystore.jks:
<ssl-config keystore="*%ORACLE_HOME%*/owb/j2ee/config/keystore.jks" keystore-password="->keystoreadmin"/>
changing this to:
<ssl-config keystore="C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1/owb/j2ee/config/keystore.jks" keystore-password="->keystoreadmin"/>
and the OC4J container starts successfully.

Error when starting repository browser listener on Oracle Database

I have successfully installed oracle database 11g release2 (11.2.0.2.0). The associated Oracle Warehouse Builder 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.3.0) Standalone Software works fine, everything is ok.
Now I want to start Repository Browser. So, I must run the startowbbinst.bat file from directory oracle_home/owb/bin/win32 (oracle_home for oracle database ), but I receive this:
- call setowbenv.bat
*Error initializing server: Error initializing _logger for ../log/server.log: Access is denied*

Problem starting Repository Browser Service on Windows Server 2008

Using the default Warehouse Builder installation in the 11g (11.1.0.7.0) databaseinstallation on a clean Windows Server 2008 64-bit installation.
Warehouse Builder installed and populated ok, OWB client works fine etc.
When trying to start the Repository Browser listener by running the startOwbbInst.bat, the OC4J container crashes with the following error in the \owb\j2ee\log\oc4j\log.xml:
+<MSG_TEXT>Could not create Secure http listener due to {0}</MSG_TEXT>+
+<SUPPL_DETAIL><![CDATA[java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\bin\admin\..\..\j2ee\config\%ORACLE_HOME%\owb\j2ee\config\keystore.jks (The system cannot find the path specified)+

+     at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:66)+
+     at oracle.oc4j.security.OC4JSSLSocketFactory.getStoreIn(OC4JSSLSocketFactory.java:253)+
(The local_service_login.bat works fine).
We're starting this as an administrator user in Win2008.
All parameteres in the setowbenv.bat seems to be correct as far as I can tell. There is a strange reference to %ORACLE_HOME% in the above log, of which I've no idea where it is coming from....
Identical installation worked fine on a 64-bit Windows Server 2003, - so can this be something related to a new security model in Windows Server 2008?
(I found a posting regarding problems with the startOwbbInst.bat on Vista [here |http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2275781&#2275781] - so maybe.... however, the quickfix mentioned there did'nt help us here...)
Anyone experienced similar problems (and preferably solved them) on Windows Server 2008 and/or Vista?

Can not start Repository Browser

I have installed the server components of OWB 10.2 on a 64bit Red Hat Linux server and the client design tool on a windows desktop. I have so far failed to start the repository browser trying a number of different things (using the link from within OWB Design Client, starting an OWB browser listener on the client then retrying said link, swapping my client PC's host name slu2022 with the server's etc).
The thing I don't get is why the browser opens with this web address (slu2022 being my desktop):
https://slu2022:8999/owbb/RABLogin.uix?mode=design&def_host=<HOST SERVER NAME>&def_port=1526&def_service=dwdev
I would have thought the repository browser was accessible using just a web browser from any client PC and that the server needed the runtime listener started? Problem is I have no idea how to start the listener on Linux and the documentation on how to do this seems to consist entirely of this sentence,
"To verify the installation, launch the Repository Browser listener and then the Repository Browser.".
Any and all help is appreciated.

To start Listener on Linux is very simple:
- Set env. variables ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, TNS_ADMIN (export ORACLE_HOME=BLABLABLA and so on).
- In the command prompt, start the listener: lsnrctl start
But... If you can connect to the database, your listener is already up, you don't have to re start it.
The browser server preference is set when installing the Browser schema. It's possible to change it in OWB -> Preferences, under the Browser Tab. Provide correct app server hostname. If it still not work, remove the port number and try again.

Hi,

Error in starting OWB repository browser listener

Hi,
I got the following error when starting owb repository browser listener on Solaris with startOwbbInst.sh
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax.servlet.Servlet

Is this caused by something with the configuration?
Jeffrey

Hi ,
What is your OWB version ?
If it is 10.2 then read the following
With Warehouse Builder 10.2.0.X, the Repository Browser Listener is only supported on Windows x86-32bit and linux x86-32bit client machine.
So start the Warehouse Builder Repository Browser Listener on Windows/Linux x86-32bit client machine
For 11g refer MOS Note 469422.1

Repository Browser does not start

Hi,
the repository browser service fails to start with the following error:
Error loading web-app 'owbb' at C:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\j2ee\owbb: Unable to find/read file WEB-INF/web.xml in C:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\j2ee\owbb (WEB-INF/web.xml)
Well, actually the web.xml file above does not exists...
Oracle 11 running on Windows Vista.
Any idea?
Kind regards,
Corrado

You got it Robert,
my owbb folder contained only 500 files against the 1400 inside the owbb.war.
I extracted a fresh copy from owbb.war and now it works.
The strange thing is I got no errors when I installed Oracle 11 last week.
By the way, there's a bug related to Windows Vista.
The Repository Browser Listener need to be started as Administrator.
But starting a batch file as Administrator reset the working directory to C:\Windows\System32.
This way startOwbbInst.bat can't find anymore another batch file it references (setowbenv.bat).A quick workaround is to add
cd C:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\bin\win32
(replace it with your real path of course) at the start of startOwbbInst.bat and stopOwbbInst.bat.
Kind regards,
Corrado

OWB REPOSITORY BROWSER PROBLEM

I am new with owb and have a problem with that Warehouse Builder Browser.
At the first I start the OWB Browser Listener. That's ok.
Afterwards I start the Repository Browser AND login as repository owner. That's ok.
Now the problem: after I click any link, I come back again on the login PAGE. With the others links the same happens (such as Object Summary Report)
What is the problem??
I use Oracle 10gR1 and Warehouse Builder 10gR2
Please help me.
Thank you for answers

Hello,
I was also hit by the same and raised a SR. Here is the follow up --
Symptoms
========
One can log in OWB browser but after any navigation move, Browser returns to login page.
Cause
=====
According to development this is OC4J security bug which is specific to the OC4J version of I.E. on Windows 2000. This should work if with Netscape or with I.E. on Windows platforms after Windows 2000.
ANSWER
=======
- close the oc4j session (ctrl/c);
- in owb_home/owb/j2ee/config/owbb-web-site.xml
replace the line
<web-site port="8999" secure="true" display-name="OWB Browser Wed Site">
with
<web-site port="8999" display-name="OWB Browser Wed Site">
(removed secure = "true")
- save it;
- run the oc4j session again, make sure in the oc4j outputs you cannot see
"....unpacking owbb.war", just "initialized"
- do not use any command from the owb installations; open Netscape or IE and put
the URL with http not https, e.g.
http://127.0.0.1:8999/owbb/RABLogin.uix?mode=design
This had actually solved my problem.

Repository Browser does not start

What is the source table for repository browser info?

Hi guys,
I need to create report for everyday's data refresh, mostly like what repository browser does. So what is the source table for repository browser info? I am in OWB 10gR2. Thanks a lot.

I believe the runtime audit browser uses the views that start with "RAB" in the control center.
But it would probably better if you used the Audit Execution views. More information can be found in the "API and Scripting Reference" document...
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28225/api_2runviews.htm
In order to get access to the Public views from SQL Plus using a schema other than the control center, I believe you need to grant the ACCESS_PUBLICVIEW_BROWSER sys privilege to each OWB user. Look at Note:434718.1 for more information.
