Introduction Due to the tighter integration of Oracle Service Bus 12c in the whole Oracle SOA Suite product it’s now much easier for developers to use general SOA Suite components like the Domain Value Map (DVM). Getting Started First I use the OSB 12c clone project ability to copy th earlier created/blogged OSB 12c Database adapter project and create a project named GetCaseServiceDVM. In the new project we add a Domain Value Map (DVM): The file name and description speak for...

A question on JDeveloper & ADF OTN forum cought my attention. A user wanted to use a method of the Apache Commons-IO library named FileUtils.getTempDiretory() but got an error when he tried to use code completion or when he tried to compile the code. The problem was that the compiler (or code completion) did not pick up the right java class from the library even as it was installed in the project a library.As the original code used belongs to one of my samples I...

There are already several blogs on how to receive and send email using the UMS email adapter. A few good starting points that use GMail as a provider are the ones written by our respected con-colleagues of Amis: Receiving email Sending email So I won't bother to do a how-to on that on my account. Although I managed to get that working with a local Exchange setup. What I managed to do is to read e-mail and then process it to upload the attachments and body using BPEL and java in...

SOA Suite 12c introduces Maven support to build and deploy artifacts. Oracle has provided extensive documentation on this. Also there already are plenty of blog posts describing how to do this. I will not repeat those posts (only shortly describe the steps). What I couldn’t find quickly enough though was how to deploy artifacts from an artifact repository to an environment. This is a task often done by provisioning software such as Puppet or Jenkins. Sometimes though you want...

You have installed OTD (Oracle Traffic Director), configured nodes and created an instance. Now you want to set up an OTD active standby failover. First you will need a virtual IP address. Log in to EMOC (Enterprise Manager OPS Center) and allocate a virtual IP for use in the OTD failovergroup. Go to the accounts Networks setting and press the icon Allocate vIP from vNet in the section Public Networks. Choose your number of vIPs you want. Read the complete article here. WebLogic ...

According to the SOA Suite 12c documentation, an idempotent activity is an activity that can be safely retried. It means if your BPEL Process fails, a rollback operation will be executed and all data won’t be persisted in the database. OK, but sometimes you want to persist some data even your BPEL Process fails. How can you achieve it? Set the operation as nonidempotent and the Dehydration will occur after this operation. In this post, you will learn how to set an operation...

This blog is meant for people who are not familiar with SSL, especially in combination with WebLogic. In my experience, SSL is usually a bit of a black box for many junior and medior administrators who work with middleware, so I will try to clarify some of it in special relation to WebLogic. To understand this, there are also some generic...
