Login Page return "Page Not Found" Error

Today I cloned a new test environment on a new server, after all services startup I tried to get the login page by http://ServerName.domain:port/OA_HTML/AppsLocalLogin.jsp but I got the error message “The page cannot be found”. I tried also http://ServerName.domain:port and I got the same error message. The Apache error_log show: (55.66.77.88 – server ip, 77.88.1.99 – my ip) [Mon Sep 24 10:57:13 2007] [error] OPM: EW: Fail to start process with mod=JServ and grp=DiscoGroup, it's possible that your configuration file is not correct.

Why?! I checked all Apache configuration files - httpd.conf, httpds.conf, apps.conf, oprocmgr.conf, httpd_pls.conf - but they all were good… Because it’s a new server I also checked required Linux RPM’s that may be missing, but they all were installed. The content of /etc/hosts file was: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ServerName 55.66.77.88 ServerName We change it to: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 55.66.77.88 ServerName.domain ServerName After restart Apache (+ clear cache $COMMON_TOP/_pages/_oa__html/) we got the login screen! :-) Unfortunately, just after resolving this issue I found a related note in Metalink: Note:372096.1 - Servlet and JSP Pages return a "Page Not Found" Error After Install of Applications.

Upgrade Oracle Applications 11i Database to 10g R2 (10.2.0.3)

In this post I’m going to describe step-by-step how to upgrade an Oracle Apps 11i Database 9i (9.2.0.6) to 10g R2 (10.2.0.3). The upgrade was done on a single node environment installed on Red Hat Linux 4. Technical information: OS: RHL4 Apps version: 11.5.10.2 DB version: 9.2.0.6 ATG Rup 5 + AD.I.5 *** The following upgrade process suitable to the above starting point only! *** For another OS or Apps version you can be helped by this post, but it's highly *** recommended to read the related Notes mentions at the end of this post. 1) Apply patch 4653225 - 10g release 2 ineroperability patch for 11.5.10 a. Unzip patch file b. Cd 4653225 c. Run adpatch.sh 2) Upgrade Developer 6i to the latest patch set If your patch set level is earlier then patch set 17, you should apply the latest certified patch set (nowadays – 18). You can use my previous post (step-by-step style) – “Upgrading Developer 6i with Oracle Apps 11i”. And Metalink Note 125767.1 – “Upgrading Developer 6i with Oracle Applications 11i”. 3) Install 10g software a. mkdir [rdbms_oracle_home] for the new 10g software (/oracle/tst10db/10.2) b. Export ORACLE_HOME=[rdbms_oracle_home] c. Unzip installation file - 10201_database_linux32.zip d. cd database e. Execute runInstaller with oracle user f. Select Advanced Installation g. Inventory directory location: /oracle/tst10db/10.2/oraInventory h. Select Installation Type: “Enterprise Edition” i. Home Details: Name: OraDB10g_home Path: /oracle/tst10db/10.2 j. Fix all errors if exists k. Choose to Install Database Software only l. Click on install m. Run the following scripts with root n. Exit 4) Install Oracle Database products from Oracle 10g Companion CD a. Export ORACLE_HOME=[RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME] b. Unzip installation file - 10201_companion_linux32.zip c. cd companion d. Execute runInstaller with oracle user e. Select Oracle Database Products 10.2.0.1.0 f. Name and Path like database software installation. Name: OraDB10g_home Path: /oracle/tst10db/10.2 g. Fix errors if exists h. Click on Install i. Exit 5) Install 10.2.0.3 patch set a. Export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/tst10db/10.2 b. Export ORACLE_SID=tst10 c. unzip installation file - p5337014_10203_LINUX.zip d. cd Disk1 e. Execute runInstaller with oracle user f. Name and Path like in database installation Name: OraDB10g_home Path: /oracle/tst10db/10.2 g. Click on Install h. Run root.sh i. Exit installation 6) Create nls/data/9idata directory a. Execute: perl $ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/old/cr9idata.pl b. export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/tst10db/10.2 c. export ORA_NLS10=$ORACLE_HOME/nls/data/9idata 7) Install 10g Listener a. Stop 9i listener b. Export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/tst10db/10.2 c. cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin d. execute ./netca (Network Configuration Assitant) e. Name the listener TST10 8) Database Upgrade a. Export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/tst10/10.2 b. Export ORACLE_SID=tst10 c. cp /oracle/tst10/10.2/rdbms/admin/utlu102i.sql /tmp d. cd /tmp e. sqlplus “/as sysdba” i. startup db ii. spool info.log iii. run $utlu102i.sql iv. spool off f. Check info.log for any errors g. Add to initTST10.ora -> local_listener =’(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host= servername.domain)(Port= 1521))’ h. Execute the Database Upgrade Assistant - $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbua i. Select the db to upgrade j. SYSAUX tablespace should be on: /oracle/tst10data/sysaux01.dbf Choose Automatically extend datafile when full (AUTOEXTEND). k. It is strongly recommended to have a full cold backup of the database before upgrade. You can choose to make the cold backup at this stage. l. Enter passwords for system users. m. Click on Finish n. Check status of all upgraded components. o. Close 9) Modify initialization parameters Follow Metalink note 216205.1 - Database Initialization Parameters for Oracle Applications 11i. Section 2.4 - Release-specific database initialization parameters for 10gR2 (10.2.X) + Removal list 10gR2 (10.2.X). 10) Fix Korean lexers a.
