You may have end-users outside of your organization's firewall who need access to E-Business Suite. One way of doing that is to set up a reverse proxy server and a series of network segments separated by firewalls. The outermost network segment that lies between the internet and an organization's intranet is often called a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). DMZs are enforced by firewalls and other networking security devices. Setting up a DMZ Instructions for deploying EBS 12.2...

Oracle versions numbers can be very long. Complicating matters further, different product families within Oracle use the version hierarchy differently. This can make it confusing to determine whether a specific product update has been certified with Oracle E-Business Suite. Specifically, a customer recently asked whether it was acceptable to apply the Oracle Access Manager 11.1.2.2.8 update to their OAM instance that was integrated with EBS 12.1.3. They were concerned...

MS16-104: Security update for Internet Explorer: September 13, 2016 (KB3185319) breaks the JRE (oaj2se.exe) download function in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1 and 12.2. This issue occurs with IE 11 on Windows 7, 8.1, and 10. Expected behaviour: If an end-user does not have the required JRE plug-in release installed on their desktop client, a dialog box appears, asking whether they wish to download it from the EBS server. When the end-user confirms the download, the oaj2se.exe...

If your E-Business Suite Release environment is configured to support Daylight Saving Time (DST) or international time zones, it's important to keep your timezone definition files up-to-date. They were last changed in November 2015 and released as DSTv25. DSTv27 is now available and certified with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2. The DSTv27 update includes the timezone information from the IANA tzdata 2016f. It is cumulative: it includes all previous Oracle DST updates....

[Update Apr. 24, 2017: Java Web Start is now available for EBS 12.1 and 12.2. See this article for details.] Does EBS depend upon Java on desktop clients? Yes. The E-Business Suite requires Forms. Forms is started by a Java applet. Java applets are launched by the Java Plug-in using a browser that supports plug-ins via the NPAPI protocol. The Java plug-in runs in the browser memory space and manages the execution of the Forms applet and other EBS applets in one or more...
