This chapter describes issues associated with Oracle User Messaging Service. It includes the following topics:
This section describes general issue and workarounds. It includes the following topics:
Section 16.1.3, "XML File Handle Left Open after Upload Fails"
Section 16.1.5, "User Messaging Service URLs Unavailable After Restart"
Section 16.1.6, "User Preferences User Interface Renders Improperly"
A UMS schema purge script is available for your download and use. You can access the script and instructions for its use by contacting Oracle Suppotr.
In order for Oracle User Messaging Service to run as a specific user, a code-based permission grant is required. This grant is pre-seeded in WebLogic domains that are created after the Fusion Middleware 11gR1 Patch Set 2 upgrade.
If you created a WebLogic domain prior to the Patch Set 2 upgrade, you must manually add this grant by running the following Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS) WLST commands in online (connected) mode:
wls:/mydomain/serverConfig> grantPermission(codeBaseURL="file:${ums.oracle.home}/communications/modules/oracle.sdp.client_11.1.1/-", permClass="oracle.security.jps.JpsPermission",permTarget="IdentityAssertion", permActions="execute") wls:/mydomain/serverConfig> grantPermission(codeBaseURL="file:${ums.oracle.home}/communications/modules/oracle.sdp.messaging_11.1.1/-", permClass="oracle.security.jps.JpsPermission",permTarget="IdentityAssertion", permActions="execute")
See Oracle WebLogic Fusion Middleware Scripting Tool Command Reference for information regarding grantPermission
If an error occurs when uploading a user messaging preferences XML file using the WLST manageUserMessagingPrefs
command, the XML file handle is left open. On the Microsoft Windows platform, this file cannot be deleted until you exit the WLST shell.
When no metric data is found (for example when no messages have been sent or received after server setup), the Metrics Performance page will display Unavailable. This is not a problem with the software, and the Performance reporting is operating properly. As soon as Send and Receive traffic exists, the Performance page will display results normally.
Upon restarting the User Messaging Service server (usermessagingserver) from Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control or through Oracle WebLogic Console, you may get an error: Error 503--Service Unavailable
when attempting to access any URLs served by the User Messaging Service server, such as the User Preferences UI (/sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui) or the various Web Services endpoints. This error occurs intermittently in cases when the Oracle WebLogic Server is heavily loaded (such as with a SOA instance). To work around this issue:
Restart the User Messaging Service server again (two or more restarts may be required).
If multiple User Messaging Service server restarts are not sufficient, then restart the entire Oracle WebLogic Server instance.
Intermittent UI rendering errors have been reported in some languages, due to the generation of a corrupted .css file. If you experience problems, follow these steps to work around the issue:
Delete the cached, auto-generated .css file for the affected locale (or simply, all locales) on the server located at DOMAIN_HOME/servers/<server_name>/tmp/_WL_user/usermessagingserver/<random_name>/public/adf/styles/cache
and restart the usermessagingserver application using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. Have all users clear their browser caches.
The next time the UI is accessed from a browser, a new .css file will be generated for the desired locale, and it is very likely that it will be a valid .css file. If not, repeat this process a couple of times.
If the previous solution does not work, disable content compression in the web.xml
file of the User Preferences Web Module located at DOMAIN_HOME/servers/<server_name>/tmp/_WL_user/usermessagingserver/<random_name>/sdpmessaginguserprefs-ui-web.war
. In particular, extract web.xml
, add the following <context-param/>
to it:
<context-param> <param-name>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.DISABLE_CONTENT_COMPRESSION</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </context-param>
Then, re-archive it to the war module.
Finally, restart the usermessagingserver application using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.
This section describes configuration issues and their workarounds. It includes the following topics:
Section 16.2.2, "Preseeded Channel for Worklist and Pop-up Drivers Cannot be Removed"
Section 16.2.5, "Migrate Custom Business Terms After PS3 Patch"
Section 16.2.6, "Use Correct SSL Trust Store When Configuring Drivers"
Section 16.2.7, "User Messaging Service Driver Configuration Changes Not Immediately Effective"
When you upgrade to the current release, you must complete the following manual configuration steps in order to enable use of the Extension driver:
Stop all servers it the domain.
Add this .jar file to the classpath of the domain:
$UMS_ORACLE_HOME/communications/modules/usermessaging-config_11.1.1.jar
This can be done by modifying the setDomainEnv.sh/setDomainEnv.cmd
in the domain's bin folder. That is, the POST_CLASSPATH variable is updated like this:
POST_CLASSPATH="${UMS_ORACLE_HOME}/communications/modules/usermessaging-config_11.1.1.jar${CLASSPATHSEP}${POST_CLASSPATH}"export POST_CLASSPATH
From the template .jar file at $UMS_ORACLE_HOME/common/templates/applications/oracle.ums_template_11.1.1.jar
extract the .xml files:
/config/fmwconfig/usermessagingconfig.xml /config/fmwconfig/mbeans/ums-mbeans.xml
Copy these two .xml files into the domain's config and fmwconfig folders:
$DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/usermessagingconfig.xml $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/mbeans/ums-mbeans.xml
Start the servers.
Deploy the UMS Extension Driver by executing the WLST driver deployment command. For example:
wls:/emsoa/serverConfig> deployUserMessagingDriver(baseDriver='extension',appName='extension', targets='soa_server1')
The UMS Extension Driver is now enabled.
If you deinstall the Worklist or Pop-up driver, the preseeded channel for these drivers cannot be removed. The preseeded channel will remain available in your preference list.
While following the Worklist Driver configuration instructions, you may see that Oracle User Messaging Service for SOA in the Configuration Wizard is not selected, leading you to think that it is not configured and that you must select and configure it. This is not the case. The basic Oracle User Messaging Service is already configured, along with a few UMS drivers.
Continue to follow the documented instructions, and disregard the fact that the Oracle User Messaging Service for SOA option is unselected.
There is an issue with the default environment settings on Windows related to keystore which prevents UMS from connecting securely to Beehive. To fix this issue:
Modify setDomainEnv.sh
to remove SSL config.
Restart the env.
After installing the PS3 patch, you must re-create any custom-built business terms using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. A copy of the custom-built business terms is available at: $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/<ServerName>/applications/usermessagingserver/configuration/businessterms.xml.bak
Restart your servers after making any changes!
Note:
New, pre-seeded business terms have been introduced in this release. Do not overwrite the upgraded (PS3) file with a PS1 backup (the new terms will be lost, otherwise).Before configuring any User Messaging Service Driver (such as the Email Driver), to connect to a remote gateway using SSL, ensure that the SSL Trust Store is properly configured as described in "Configure Keystores" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console Online Help.
Ensure that the value of the JVM system property (javax.net.ssl.trustStore
) set in $DOMAIN_HOME/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
(or Windows equivalent file) points to the correct trust store that you want to use.The Java Standard Trust Store is located at:
$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts
or $BEA_JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts
Note that with the default out-of-the-box configuration of SSL trust store, the UMS driver will not be able to connect to the Oracle Beehive Email Server over SSL. To resolve this issue, follow the instructions for using the correct SSL trust store. Replacing the DemoTrust
keystore in the setDomainEnv.sh
file (or Windows equivalent file) with the Java Standard SSL trust store will enable UMS email driver to connect successfully over SSL to the Oracle Beehive Email Server.
When you change a driver's configuration and then restart the driver, the changes will not take effect until all managed connections in the pool are destroyed (900 seconds [15 minutes] by default). Take one of these actions to ensure that the connections are destroyed:
When performing driver configuration changes, stop the driver application and wait for 15 minutes. Then re-start the driver application.
Note:
If you follow this recommendation and the wait time of 900 seconds (15 minutes) is too long, you can reduce the time using the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console as follows:Click Deployments.
Select the desired User Messaging Service Driver deployment.
Click the Resource Adapter Type module.
Click Configuration > Outbound Connection Pools.
Click the DriverConnectionFactory group.
Click Connection Pool.
Edit the value of Shrink Frequency Seconds (for example, set to 120 seconds).
Click Save, and save the changes to a deployment plan file when prompted.
Restart the User Messaging Service driver deployment to include the new plan.
Remember that if Shrink Frequency is reduced to a short interval, it may eventually have a negative impact on the performance of the driver as idle connections will be recycled frequently.
OR
Restart the entire Oracle WebLogic Server after performing driver configuration changes. The new changes will take effect immediately upon server re-start.
Instructions for notification configuration include setting your outgoing server parameters. Please note that if you do not change the parameters (that is, if you leave the default setting unchanged), notifications may still be sent. This is expected behavior, but you should not rely on the default settings without verifying them. You should set your parameters to ensure that they are correct.
