Hi Experts,
When i am approve the request from http://localhost:8001/integration/worklistapp getting the below exception

Unable to see the application in BPM Workspace for Sales Quote tutorial

I have created the Sales Quote tutorial steps and deployed the process. The Enter Quote Details user task is in the "SalesRep" role and I have assigned a user from WebLogic user store to "SalesRep" role in the BPM Organization artifact.
In order to kick off the process, I logged-in to BPM workspace with the user I have assigned as "SalesRep" role but don't find the Sales Quote application under the "Applications" tab.
I am using 11g PS4(11.1.1.5) and didn't seed the demo users, instead just created the user using WLS console.
Any thoughts why the user is unable to see the application in BPM Workspace?
Thanks,
Satya

Check two things:
1. Login to Workspace as weblogic and click the Administration link at the top to verify the role is actually set to a user (just to double check this).
2. Login to EM, click the SalesQuote composite, scroll down and click the EnterQuote human task component, and click the Administration tab.
This shows you if there is a task form URI associated with this human task. If not, the initiate link won't show up in the Applications menu in Workspace.
If not, you can either deploy again from JDeveloper, making sure you have selected the task forms in the deploy wizard and making sure the deployment is successful in the Deployments log window.

I recently upgraded to 10.9.1 and now my OS server no longer works. It says I need to upgrade to a later version. I am unable to see a free upgrade in the app store.

Customization of Human tasks the BPM Worklist App with ADF App

Hi All,
We are building a custom ADF application which aims to combine several business process human tasks to a unified interface.
And how to integrate the Human Task Flow BPM Worklist to my ADF App.
Otherthan that
To the BPM Worklist App we want to do customizations also like
1.Want to customize to apply our own custom skins to customize banner logo, title to the BPM Human Task Flow App.......
2.And based on the logged in user/role we wanted to restrict the features of the Work List App.
Say for Example should not provide the Facility to Add New Page if the logged in user is not an Admin, like wise no provision to add or modify or delete the Worklist Views like that...
How to get control the App based on User/Role
Any help or pointers would be appreciated!
I have ADF Experience from projects Using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.
But, for me this is the first BPM case.
Renuka

Hi Renuka,
There are basically two ways to create an ADF UI for a BPM Task:
1. Generate it from the task
2. Create a ADF Taskflow based on Human Workflow Task
Since I tell this by heart, I might be slightly wrong in the terms.
You probably want to try the second option. It is accessible from the "New Gallery". You'll have to provide the Human Task from the BPM project, but then you can build up the ADF Taskflow by your self, based on the customizations of the rest of your application.
Should not be rocket science for someone with ADF11g experience. Since it is not my dayly job, I need to figure it out every time again ;). But I did it in the past and it wasn't so hard.

No "Administration" Option in the BPM Worklist App

I'm working on an environment w/ the BPM Worklist App, and I notice there is no "Administration" option for the weblogic user (which is apparently the admin) when I login to the app. Assuming he doesn't have the appropriate credentials - any idea which are necessary? I assume I can assign these in the Weblogic Console? Any help would be appreciated.

From EM Console, make sure this user is in role named BPMAdmin. Or even better SOAAdmin. From Weblogic Console, I hope he is in Adminstrator role already.
Thanks

Task details in BPM worklist on SOA 11g could not retrieved.Experts plz adv

Hi,
This is regarding issues when I click on the Task details on the BPM worklist 11G. I am invoking a BPEL process using custom JSP and from the custom JSP form values are
sent to BPEL and from BPEL i am invoking the Human workflow.
Tech used: BPEL 11.1.1.2, RCU 11.1.1.2.1, WLS 10.3.2 and DB 10.2.0.4
I am using one jsp named "myFlow.jsp" to call the BPEL process and i can able to get the Task in worklist but i click on "Task details" , i am getting "404 error".
Note: There was no errors when i tried with ADF autogenerated form. I can able to approve, reassign and do all operations.
I got one soultion for that, i mean i have to create another custom jsp(taskDetails.jsp) to fetch the values based on the Task Id and finally i have to give that URI in EM to fetch the details.Today i created that also but i dont know how to give the URI IN EM for the task details jsp. I am refering soa developes guide also to get the API's.
My Ref: http://sqltech.cl/doc/oas11gR1/integration.1111/e10224/bp_worklistcust.htm
http://docs.tpu.ru/docs/oracle/en/owl/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_designtf.htm
1. myFlow.jsp used - To initiate the BPEL to create a Task in worklist.(By mistake i gave this URI in EM and i am getting the same request page in the task details). Now i created another jsp which queries the task details based on the Task ID. i dont know how to give the URI in EM for this Jsp.
2.taskDetails.jsp - Used to retrive the task details based on thr Task id.
Both Jsp's are displayed below. Please advise how to fetch the task details.
worklist API provided by oracle is used to fetch only the metadata on the Task details but i have to get all the form values also in the task details that has been submitted
by my Jsp(myFlow.jsp)
Both are shown below,

Can we edit the input payload and resubmit again from BPM worklist app.

hi friends,
can we edit the input payload and resubmit again from BPM worklist applications.
please provide me any links on this.
Thanks,

Hi ,
Dont know what you mean by resubmit but, you can surely modify the input data from inside BPM Worklist before submitting.
Follow Section 15.6.4 Specifying the Task Payload Data Structure in the below link :
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/integrate.1013/b28981/workflow.htm#BABFICJF
Make sure to select "Modifiable via Worklist App" checkbox.

BPM worklist app, not working in Fusion SCM env..

I have a small BPEL+HWF app, with the BPM worklist UI component. It works well on my laptop, but when deployed on SCM FusionApp env, it fails to load the BPM app_UI?
I also noticed that the worklist app conf / ADF usage is different from my standalone laptop_SOA env and the FusionApp SOA_env. Are there any special steps to create/ register the HWF app UI in Fusion Apps Env?

It is deploying correctly, the worklist app displays my instance. Btu when I click on my worklist item, the UI does not load or display. Below is the browser error and logfile error messages.
-----Browser error-----

The requested URL /workflow/DOO_Simulation_ProjectUI/faces/adf.task-flow was not found.

Tasks not being logged in BPM worklist app for AIAIntegrationAdminUser

Hi all,
As per error handling framework in AIA, i read that whenever a partnerlink error occurs in BPEL process, it goes to the fault policy in the server, performs the action defined in fault policy and then sends erro notification to the role defined in AIAConfigurationProperties.xml.
I have tried the same and put retry as my action in fault policy. My process is getting retried also as per the fault policy defined.
BUt the error notification is not being sent to AIAIntegrationAdminUser. AIAIntegrationAdmin is the defualt role mentioned in the AIAConfigurationProperties.xml file.
PLease let me know if I have missed anything.

Your correct, AIAIntegrationAdmin is the default role that all error notifications get sent to. The BPM Worklist Application by default is not enabled. You need to update the AIAConfigurationPropertiers.xml file and update the medata store. The property in the AIAConfiguraitonProperties.xml is called EH.INVOKE.HWF and that needs to be set to true.

BPM worklist app views are not visible in IPM task viewer

Hi,
we upgraded our system from 11.1.1.3.0 to
weblogic 10.3.5.0
SOA 11.1.1.5.0 with BPEL processes
ECM with IPM and UCM 11.1.1.5.0
after upgrade i have problem with profiles in IPM task viewer page. Views are created in BPM worklistapp and all users can see tasks assigned to them there. But those views are not visible in IPM task viewer page (i tried it using driver page). Because of missing profiles/views users can't see and process tasks assigned to them. In log files isn't raised any error message.
Everything was working before upgrade. Can someone help me with this? What can i have wrong there?
Thanks a lot in advance for any help

BPM Worklist Task Details Error

When I open the BPM worklist app via IP address and click on an item for task details, it makes a call to an internal server name that cannot be resolved.
Is there somewhere I can change the BPM configuration so that the worklist details opens successfully? This issue appears to affect the Task LIst Portlet as well.

Hi,
I am facing the same error.
Scenario 1:
More specifically, I have developed my SOA Composite and deployed it using the EM Console. Then I exported my Human Task Adf application as an EAR and deployed the same using EM.
I also updated the URI under Component metrics--> Adminstration ( However, I am not sure what form this URI should take??)
Whenever, I am trying to access the task details, I am seeing the Internal Server Error.
Scenario 2:
If I follow the standard procedure of deploying using Jdeveloper, there are no issues and I am able to access the task details.
So I know that the applications are built properly and working. There is some association missing when I do the deployments manually as stated in Scenario 1.
Any help would be appreciated in getting the Scenario 1 to work is highly appreciated....
Thanks in advance !!

Line feeds in a BPEL assign activity as viewed in the BPM worklist

We are catching errors in our BPEL 1.1 process (created in SOA Suite 11.1.1.6) and sending them to the BPM worklist via a human workflow. We followed the basic documentation found here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/dev.1111/e10224/partpage_hwf.htm#CHDGICFI
Before we invoke the call to human task, we assign some strings to parts of the message. For example:
<assign>
<copy>
<from expression="Detailed message:\n\nMore details go here."/>
<to>....
When we pull up our error in the BPM worklist and view the detail page, we do not see "Detailed message" and "More details go here." separated by 2 line feeds. Instead, we see the actual text "\n\n" printed out.
I have tried a variety of other line feeds, but nothing seems to work (i.e. to break up the text on the screen):
<br> or <br/> - The tags show up in the detailed view. When I view the HTML source, I see it escaped them with &amplt; and &ampgt;
&lt;br&gt; or &lt;br/&gt; - This exact text shows up on the screen (i.e. we see &amplt;, etc.)
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; - Same result (i.e. we see &amplt;, etc.)
&#10; - The line break is visible in the HTML source, but that's just basic HTML whitespace which doesn't translate into a viewable line break
&amp#xA; - Same thing with &#10; Just HTML whitespace
<pre> ... 2 carriage returns here </pre> - I tried to trick it into forcing the HTML whitespace into actual line breaks, but I had the same issue with the <br> where the open/close brackets are always escaped or printed...but never interpreted.
So...the big question is...what is the proper syntax to add line feeds that an HTML browser can interpret (while viewing the BPM worklist app) when I'm building that string in a BPEL <assign><copy><from> expression?
Please advise,
Michael

Can you simply format your expression according to what you need an try? I mean replace
<assign>
<copy>
<from expression="Detailed message:\n\nMore details go here."/>
<to>....
with
<assign>
<copy>
<from expression="Detailed message:
More details go here."/>
<to>....

Any Possibilities to Customize Oracle 11g BPM Worklist

Hi all,
My Requirement is to Customize the Oracle 11g BPM WorkList App. I realise that Oracle no longer provide the code for the worklist app like in 10g and i don't want to write a custom worklist app.
If Possible what will be the procedure actually to follow, If anybody could help me to make it possible it would be a great help.
What we're trying to do is to see if we can block some options on the screens. So we do not need all of the enhanced functionality.
Renuka

Hi Ashif
1. The source code for SOA 11g is NOT available. You cannot customize any files and redploy directly. The main difference for 10g and 11g is, earlier SOA 10g is on Oracle App Server, so not sure how they deployed and how they exposed the source code in the Expanded folder structure for each WAR file like Workspace etc.
But for SOA 11g, it is on Weblogic App Server. All the SOA modules are deployed as EARs, WARs, JARs. So all the source .java files are compiled inside JARs and most of the jsps and serverlets are compiled as .class files inside WARs. Some people do go to soa domain/servers/soa_server/tmp folder and try to modify files there after they are deployed. This is totally not recommended and not supported also. When any soa module is deployed, it goes into dynamically generated weirdly named folder structure and puts all files there. Its not worth to modify there.
Also in SOA 10g, there was like a workspace.properties file directly accessible. But in SOA 11g, now this file is deep inside in one JAR/WAR file which is inside another EAR file. Now some people do extract this JAR from EAR. And from JAR, extract the .properties file. Update the file manually. Put modified file in JAR. Put this updated JAR in EAR. Redploy EAR. This is OK approach, but still not recommended. Because when you apply any patch or upgrade soa env, this EAR will be overwritten. So you had to redo all the steps again.
For Workspace/Worklist customizations, Oracle has some good features in SOA 11.5 + FP (Feature Packe). Only if you apply FP, you will get these features. Since it is very common usecase, for customizations, Oracle is working hard in new releases to give more flexibility.
Also, SOA 11g has very good APIs exposed and good number of call back handlers like ITaskValidationCallback etc etc. You can pretty much control most of the things when a Task is worked on like set/update Payload manually, control task assignment/validation etc using Java code etc. So you can use these approaches also to customize. Say if you want to narrow down list of users who can work on a Task, you can do this.
Also there is something called Flex Fields and Custom Views which come very handy to expose custom search results to different users/groups etc.
Since you are above to migrate to SOA 11.5, first apply Feature Pack (FP) to SOA 11.5 and then migrate your old app.
Thanks
