Uninstalling Oracle Application Adapters 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
Oracle Application Adapters can be installed with the following:
Oracle WebLogic Server 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
To install Oracle Application Adapters on a Windows platform, perform the following steps:
Install Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.6 on the system.
Oracle Application Adapters are certified with JDK version 1.6.
Ensure that the JDK is added to your system PATH or on a predefined path.
If you have multiple JDK versions other than JDK version 1.6 installed on your system, then ensure that JDK version 1.6 is listed first in your system PATH. The installation program should install the adapters only with JDK version 1.6. The adapters should not be installed with any other JDK version.
Ensure that the Oracle SOA Suite 11g PS1 is installed on your system.
In addition, ensure that the ORACLE_HOME variable is set correctly to point the middleware home. For example:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1
Navigate to the location on your system where the installation executable file is located.
On Windows:
iwora11g.application-adapters.win32.exe
Double-click this file to start the Oracle Application Adapters for Oracle WebLogic Server installation program.
The installation program uses the JDK version that is available in your system PATH or on a predefined paths.
The Welcome screen is displayed.
Click Next.
The following screen is displayed.
Enter the path where Oracle SOA Suite is installed on your system. For example:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1
The installation program installs all the application adapters and related files in the following location:
ORACLE_HOME\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters
In this example, ORACLE_HOME is the location where Oracle SOA Suite is installed.
Click Next.
The Summary screen is displayed.
Review specific details on the Summary screen, including the disk requirements to ensure that you have sufficient disk space, and click Next to begin the installation.
A Status screen is displayed.
After the installation is complete, the following installation confirmation screen is displayed.
Click Finish.
The Oracle Application Adapters for Oracle WebLogic Server are now installed on your system in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters
In addition, the following Windows Program Menu listing is created:
Running the Installation Program From a Command Line (All Platforms)
If you want the installation program to use a JDK version in a specific path, you can invoke the installer by performing the following steps:
Navigate to the command prompt for your system.
Enter the following command:
iwora11g.application-adapters.win32.exe -is:javahome c:\myfolder\jdk1.6
In this example, the installation program is executed using JDK version 1.6.
To install Oracle Application Adapters on a UNIX or Linux platform, you can invoke the installer by performing the following steps:
Navigate to the command prompt for your UNIX or Linux platform.
Depending on your UNIX or Linux platform, enter the following command:
For IBM AIX:
$./iwora11g.application-adapters.aix.bin
For HP-UX:
$./iwora11g.application-adapters.hp.bin
For Linux:
$./iwora11g.application-adapters.linux.bin
For Solaris:
$./iwora11g.application-adapters.solaris.bin
After the executable file is invoked, the remaining installation steps for the UNIX and Linux platform are similar to those for the Windows platform.
Before you can use Application Explorer to generate WSDL files, you must create a repository where your configuration details are stored. Each implementation requires you to configure a specific repository before you can explore Enterprise Information System (EIS) metadata. The information in the repository is also referenced at run time.
Business Services Engine (BSE) generates Web services based on enterprise assets that are accessible from adapters regardless of the programming language or the particular operating system being used. In addition, you can use BSE as a standalone Java application running in Oracle WebLogic Server.
The J2CA runs in J2EE Connector Architecture compliant application servers and uses the Common Client Interface (CCI) to provide integration services using Oracle Application Adapters for Oracle WebLogic Server. After you deploy the connector, you can access the adapters.
To create a configuration for Oracle WebLogic Server Adapter Business Services Engine (BSE) using Application Explorer, you must first define a new configuration. This is a prerequisite for deploying BSE as a Web application in Oracle WebLogic Server.
Defining a New Configuration for BSE
To define a new configuration for BSE:
Start Application Explorer by clicking the Windows Start menu, selecting All Programs, Oracle Application Adapters, and clicking Application Explorer.
You can also start Application Explorer by executing the ae.bat file, which is located in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\tools\iwae\bin\ae.bat
It is a good practice to create a shortcut for the ae.bat file on your desktop.
If you are using a UNIX or Linux platform you can start Application Explorer by executing the iwae.sh file.
Note:
Before you execute the iwae.sh file on UNIX or Linux platforms, the permissions must be changed. For example:chmod +x iwae.sh
Right-click Configurations and select New.
The New Configuration dialog is displayed.
Enter a name for the new configuration, for example, BSE_SampleConfig, and click OK.
Please note that the name of the BSE configuration that is specified here is used during the BSE deployment process.
In the iBSE URL field, accept the default URL or replace it with a different URL with the following format:
http://host name:port/ibse/IBSEServlet
Where host name is the system on which Oracle WebLogic Server resides and port is the HTTP port number where Oracle WebLogic Server is listening.
Click OK.
A node representing the new configuration appears beneath the root Configurations node.
To create a configuration for Oracle WebLogic Server Adapter J2EE Connector Architecture (J2CA) using Application Explorer, you must first define a new configuration. This is a prerequisite for deploying J2CA as a Web application in Oracle WebLogic Server.
Defining a New Configuration for J2CA
To define a new configuration for J2CA:
Start Application Explorer by clicking the Windows Start menu, selecting All Programs, Oracle Application Adapters, and clicking Application Explorer.
You can also start Application Explorer by executing the ae.bat file, which is located in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\tools\iwae\bin\ae.bat
It is a good practice to create a shortcut for the ae.bat file on your desktop.
If you are using a UNIX or Linux platform you can start Application Explorer by executing the iwae.sh file.
Note:
Before you execute the iwae.sh file on UNIX or Linux platforms, the permissions must be changed. For example:chmod +x iwae.sh
Right-click Configurations and select New.
The New Configuration dialog is displayed.
Enter a name for the new configuration, for example, J2CA_SampleConfig, and click OK.
Please note that the name of the J2CA configuration that is specified here is used during the J2CA deployment process.
In the Home field, enter a path to your J2CA configuration directory where the repository, schemas, and other information is stored, for example:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters
Click OK.
A node representing the new configuration appears beneath the root Configurations node.
This section describes how to configure settings for the J2CA Connector Application and J2CA Installation Verification Program (IVP). After the appropriate settings are configured according to your requirements, you must first deploy the J2CA Connector Application for use with Oracle WebLogic Server using the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console. After the J2CA Connector Application is deployed successfully, you can configure and deploy the J2CA Installation Verification Program (IVP).
Configuring Settings for the J2CA Connector Application
To configure settings for the J2CA Connector Application:
Locate the ra.xml file, which is located in the following directory:
C:\Oracle_home\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\iwafjca.rar\META-INF\ra.xml
Open the ra.xml file in an editor.
Enter a value for the IWayHome property.
This is the folder where the adapters are installed. For example:
<config-property> <config-property-name>IWayHome</config-property-name> <config-property-type>java.lang.String</config-property-type> <config-property-value>C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters</config-property-value></config-property>
Enter a value for the IWayConfig property.
This is the value that you specified when you created a new J2CA configuration using Application Explorer. For example:
<config-property> <config-property-name>IWayConfig</config-property-name> <config-property-type>java.lang.String</config-property-type> <config-property-value>J2CA_SampleConfig</config-property-value></config-property>
Save the ra.xml file and exit the editor.
Configuring Log File Management for the J2CA Connector Application
Log file management for the J2CA Connector Application is governed by the configuration of the ra.xml file. The properties such as LogLevel, LogSize, and LogCount are the actual parameters that must be configured.
For example:
<config-property> <config-property-name>LogLevel</config-property-name> <config-property-type>java.lang.String</config-property-type> <config-property-value>DEBUG</config-property-value></config-property><config-property> <config-property-name>LogSize</config-property-name> <config-property-type>java.lang.Integer</config-property-type> <config-property-value>100000</config-property-value></config-property><config-property> <config-property-name>LogCount</config-property-name> <config-property-type>java.lang.Integer</config-property-type> <config-property-value>10</config-property-value></config-property>
LogLevel specifies the level of the log to be shown in the log files. Valid values for LogLevel include DEBUG, INFO, ERROR, FATAL, and WARN. For development and test environments, DEBUG is the preferred log level, which displays all of the log details. For production environments, ERROR is the preferred log level.
LogSize is the parameter that controls the size of the log files. The size should be mentioned in bytes.
LogCount is the parameter that controls the number of log files that are required. The value for this parameter must be specified as an integer. The number of log files that are generated do not exceed the number that is specified and a rollover of the log occurs only within the files that have been generated.
The log files would be created under the ORACLE_HOME\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\config\xxxxxxx\log folder. Note that xxxxxxx is the name of the J2CA configuration that you created in Application Explorer. Each J2CA configuration in Application Explorer has a corresponding log folder under the named J2CA configuration folder.
Regardless of inbound or outbound processing, all log information is stored in a file that uses the iwafjcaxxxx.log naming convention. Outbound process logs are updated in the format iwafjcaxx.log (for example, iwafjca00.log). Inbound process logs are updated in the format iwafjca15xx.log (for example, iwafjca1500.log).
When an outbound process is executed, all the current logs are updated in the iwafjca00.log file. After this file reaches its maximum log file size, the file is saved as iwafjca10.log and iwafjca00.log continues to log new activity. If iwafjca00.log reaches its maximum log file size for a second time, then this file is saved as iwafjca10.log and the previous log file (iwafjca10.log) is now saved as iwafjca20.log.
All new log files are created in this manner based on the value specified for the LogCount parameter in the ra.xml file. After the log files reaches the maximum log file size (LogSize) and number of log files (LogCount), then the logs are overwritten on the log file that was created first. For example, if you set LogSize to 100000 and LogCount to 5, then five separate files with a maximum size of 100000 are created initially as iwafjca00.log, iwafjca10.log, iwafjca20.log, iwafjca30.log, and iwafjca40.log. When the iwafjca00.log file reaches its maximum size, then the contents of the iwafjca40.log file would be replaced with iwafjca30.log and subsequent replacement with the other log files also occurs. This same behavior is followed with J2CA log file management for inbound processing.

Start Application Explorer by clicking the Windows Start menu, selecting All Programs, Oracle Application Adapters, and clicking Application Explorer.
You can also start Application Explorer by executing the ae.bat file, which is located in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\tools\iwae\bin\ae.bat
It is a good practice to create a shortcut for the ae.bat file on your desktop.
If you are using a UNIX or Linux platform you can start Application Explorer by executing the iwae.sh file.
Note:
Before you execute the iwae.sh file on UNIX or Linux platforms, the permissions must be changed. For example:chmod +x iwae.sh
A repository holds information about configuration details, adapter targets, channels and other configuration information. When the adapters are installed, by default, they are installed with a file repository. File repositories are not supported on development, test, or production environments. Users are advised to configure the database repository immediately after the installation.
Execute the iwse.ora SQL script on the system where the database is installed.
Note:
When the iwse.ora script is executed for the first time, database repositories are automatically created for BSE and J2CA configurations. As a result, it is not required to be execute the iwse.ora script twice for each configuration type. If the script is executed multiple times, the BSE and J2CA repositories are re-created and any values that were stored in the original database repositories are deleted.The iwse.ora SQL script is located in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\etc
This script creates the required tables that are used to store the adapter configuration information in the database. These tables are used by Application Explorer and by adapters during design time and run time. It is recommended that you use the same credentials to create the database repository and also in the ra.xml file for database user credentials.

A repository holds information about configuration details, adapter targets, channels and other configuration information. When the adapters are installed, by default, they are installed with a file repository. File repositories are not supported on development, test, or production environments. Users are advised to configure the database repository immediately after the installation.
Execute the iwse.ora SQL script on the system where the database is installed.
Note:
When the iwse.ora script is executed for the first time, database repositories are automatically created for BSE and J2CA configurations. As a result, it is not required to be execute the iwse.ora script twice for each configuration type. If the script is executed multiple times, the BSE and J2CA repositories are re-created and any values that were stored in the original database repositories are deleted.The iwse.ora SQL script is located in the following directory:
C:\oracle\Middleware\home_0309\Oracle_SOA1\soa\thirdparty\ApplicationAdapters\etc
This script creates the required tables that are used to store the adapter configuration information in the database. These tables are used by Application Explorer and by adapters during design time and run time. It is recommended that you use the same credentials to create the database repository and also in the web.xml file for database user credentials.
