Special thanks...

Introduction Integration flows can fail at run-time with a variety of errors. The cause of these failures could be either Business errors or System errors. When Synchronous Integration Flows fail, they are restarted from the beginning. On the other hand, Asynchronous Integration flows when they error can potentially be resubmitted/recovered from designated/pre-configured milestones within the flow. These milestones could be persistence points like queues topics or database...

The ‘Validate’ activity in Oracle BPEL gives us the functionality to validate variables again schema definitions. When using it in your bpel process you will get a nice informative message in the ‘Flow trace’.
