WADL File Changes Every Time a New Property is Added or Update

This section lists all the known issues/limitations related to Installation/Configuration.

When you roll back the OPatch or Uninstall Insight, some data remains

• Bug ID: 21650448
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

In JDeveloper the WADL file changes every time when the new property added or updated from the "REST Method Definition" Window. The problem occurs when parameters having any primitive data types. If default attribute is not defined in "REST Method Definition" then default attribute does not exists for primitive types. check the following param declaration.

Workaround:

Create another parameter param2 with int type from "Rest Method Definition". Verify the WADL file.

After the second parameter creation the wadl file is updated. The issue is when the WADL file updated, the default="" is added to previous parameters.

Addition of Tuning Knobs PollInerval and PollTimeout

• Bug ID: 21511079
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

Starting with release 12.2.1, two tuning knobs PollInterval and PollTimeout have been introduced in EDN Configuration.

PollInterval (default value is 5 seconds) allows a user to specify the seconds to delay by an inbound poller thread if no event is received by the EDN subscriber before this poller thread resumes next poll cycle.

PollTimeout (default value is 1 second) allows a user to specify the seconds used by an inbound poller to synchronously receive an event from subscriber. The PollTimeout is the time after which receive call from the poller times out if no event is received.

Additional Parameter Required to Compile Project with MDS

• Bug ID: 21427061
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

An additional parameter soa.oracle.home is introduced in 12.2.1 with the value /soa.This variable is created in JDeveloper. This parameter helps in the working of maven command. The new command to run the compiler is: mvn -settings=/home/$USER/.m2/soa_maven_plugin_settings.xml -DshowProcessLog=false -DoracleHome=/scratch/dchin/fmwhome12 -DsoaOracleHome=/scratch/dchin/fmwhome12/soa-DappHome=/scratch/dchin/tmp/bugs/ bug_21352208/tmp/MavenTestAutoApp compile.

Routing does not work

• Bug ID: 21389534
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

DVM in a Mediator component carries several attributes that govern the routing rule run time behavior, including: EndpointURI, Service, Port, Operation, and so on. We can conditionally set overriding values for each of these attributes.

Workaround

To make this routing work, we should make sure that all the targetnamespaces for ws1 and ws2 are the same. The reference files are

BPELProcess1.wsdl, BPELProcess1.bpel and composite.xml.

Non-durable Subscribers Randomly Lose Events

• Bug ID: 21117990
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

If non-durable subscribers are required, to prevent from losing messages, you need to set endpoint property adapter.jms.SinglePollCycle to false. By default it is true. This will toggle back to old (12.1.3) model.

Workaround

Use durable EDN subscribers.

Enhance Composite Loading on Cluster Nodes

• Bug ID: 21438699
• Added on: 20 April 2017
• Platform: All

You may need to warm up all nodes in cluster before running stress runs. In event of stress scenario, all nodes may not be warmed up and composites configured for lazy loading may not be loaded. In this case, deploy er thread may not find resources on the cold node as it competes with the incoming new requests.

For composites that run into these scenarios, lazy loading may be turned off.

EM Layer changes to grant user-defined ESS permissions for SOA

• Bug: 21367448
• Added: 18-March-2017
• Platform: All

From EM creating a job definition and specifying access control for native application, doesn't list the AppRoles of other stripes configured for EssNativeHostingApp. This is a problem for SOA and OSB because the user would like to use roles in SOA/OSB stripe to grant access to ESS jobs.

Workaround

Modify the following API in ProcessorMXBean to return the deployedName and all appStripes configured for a hosting App.
public Map getEnabledApplicationsWithStripesMap()
This API now returns a Map of all applications that are enabled and currently active. The keys for this map are the logical names and the corresponding
values are the array of strings with -> 2 elements for an app without MultiStripe configured and
-> 'n+1' elements for an app configured with 'n' multiStripes.

Upgrading logical DO from 11g to 12c.

• Bug: 21376518
• Updated: 06-October-2015
• Platform: All

The issue at hand is that 11g default join type is 'left outer join' and not 'inner join'. In 12c, we added 'left outer join' but did not update the import program and therefore migrating is creating 12c 'default' LDO which is inner join. As a side effect, extra joins are being created during import and data is not shown in the logical DO.

Workaround

After migrating to 12c, select the 'Left Outer Join' select box in the logical DO.

Messages are missing on fail over using data-based alert event

• Bug: 21107366
• Updated: 12-October-2015
• Platform: All

Messages are missing on fail over using data-based alert event. This often happens during CQ Service migration from one node to another.

Workaround

Data loss depends on the CQL query. If your query condition has some limitations, during query migration, the data that populates in the time frame that the query is started on another server will be lost since it generates data with new modified time before query starts. If we don't want to lose any data we can change the condition to another meaningful one or remove the condition. We can either allow some data loss or allow some duplicated data without the data condition.

The pipeline then forwards the messages, in order, to its target business service. However, it is possible the business service will process the messages in a different order. The resequencer does not guarantee the order messages are processed by the business service.

WSDL Errors Can Occur When Oracle Service Bus and Oracle Business Process Manager Are on the Same Domain

• Bug: 18856204
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If Oracle Service Bus is installed on the same domain as Oracle Business Process Manager (BPM), the following error can occur when creating a WSDL file:

The WSDL is not semantically valid: Failed to read wsdl file from url due to -- java.net.MalformedURLException: Unknown protocol: servicebus.

Workaround:

Contact Oracle Support for a solution to this issue.

Changes Do not Show up on Fusion Middleware Control with Discovery Cache Enabled

• Bug: 18774509
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

When the Discovery Cache is enabled in Fusion Middleware Control, all target information is cached upon first login. Consequent logins retrieve the targets from the cache, which means changes, additions, and deletions to targets are not accurately reflected in the navigation tree.

Workaround

Either disable the Discovery Cache, or refresh the WebLogic server domain to update the target information.

Using Only Simple Element Types Causes Parsing Errors in REST Binding

• Bug: 18695606
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

Using only a simple element type (as you might do in testing) causes the parsing of the underlying object in a REST binding proxy service creation to fail.

This can occur if the stored schema path is expressed relative to the rules directory, not the project directory.

Workaround

Data types must be wrapped in a complex type. For example:

OWSM Policies Are Not Applied When Activating a JCA Business Service

• Bug: 18562166
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

When you activate a project or deploy a configuration JAR file that includes a JCA business service with a PII policy attached, the policy is not applied until the server is restarted.

Workaround

Restart the server after importing or updating the JCA business service.

Updating a JCA Proxy or Business Service's Policy Mode Causes a Runtime Error

• Bug: 18562207
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If you change the configuration of a JCA proxy or business service from OWSM Policy Store to No Policies, or vice versa, the JCA service generates an exception at runtime. For JCA business services with an OWSM policy attached, any change to the security or endpoint properties results in a runtime exception.

Workaround

For proxy services exhibiting this issue, modify one of the JCA endpoint properties and redeploy. The properties that can be changed depend on the specific JCA adapter used. For business services exhibiting this issue, restart the server after updating the properties.

WSDL Generated Missing Elements for Custom Exception

• Bug: 18502287
• Added: 17-June-2014
• Platform: All

If an EJB contains custom exceptions and you export the WSDL file from the EJB business service, the generated WSDL file does not include the custom exception properties. The issue is limited only to the WSDL generation part of the file. During runtime, the custom exception thrown from the EJB is mapped to the respective elements in the SOAP fault. The elements in the response payload are populated corresponding to the properties of the custom exception.

Workaround

Manually edit the WSDL file to include these custom exception properties.

The Policy Violation Count Does Not Include HTTP Token Policy Violations

• Bug: 18477417
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

The policy violation metrics displayed on a service's Policies page in Fusion Middleware Control do not count http_*_token policy violations. This happens for HTTP token-based authentication policies only.

Connection to Application Server is Refused During UMS Adapter Configuration

• Bug: 18424427
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

When configuring the JCA Adapter for UMS, a server exception occurs and the connection is refused on the Identity Lookup for the application server.

Workaround

This issue is only observed from a server created outside of JDeveloper. Use an integrated server created within JDeveloper instead. You can also enter the user account manually.

Default Logging Format Does Not Log Authorized User

• Bug: 18417685
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

The default extended logging format does not include the name of the authorized user in the access log, which is required when using HTTP basic authorization.

Workaround

Change the logging format to Common. To access the log properties, launch the WebLogic Server Administration Console and navigate to Environment > Servers > server_name > Logging > HTTP (Advanced section) > Format. A server restart is required after this change.

Automatic Policy Configuration for STS May Result in an Incompatible Policy

• Bug: 18384215, 18416081
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

Using the automatic policy configuration for STS might not result in a compatible policy for a web service client.

Workaround

For information about this and other web services policy issues, see Web Services in the Release Notes for Oracle Fusion Middleware.

Global Policy Inheritance Rule Does Not Work For Authorization Policies

• Bug: 18295336
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

Authorization policies in the global policy set cannot be disabled by locally attaching the oracle/no_authorization_service_policy to the proxy service, where global policy is applied.

Workaround

To disable globally attached authorization policies, select No Policy in the proxy service security policy configuration in either the Oracle Service Bus Console or JDeveloper.

History Changes View Does Not Reflect All Proxy Services

• Bug: 18058244
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

In the Oracle Service Bus Console, the Changes sub-tab on the Histories tab does not reflect a newly created proxy service that was generated when creating a pipeline by selecting Expose as a Proxy Service.

Workaround

Refresh the window to show the new proxy service.

Pipeline Info Buttons on the Service Type Page Do Not Work When Launched from the Keyboard

• Bug: 17959710
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

With screen reader accessibility enabled, the Pipeline Service Type page has Info buttons next to the service type options. When you use the keyboard to navigate to and launch the Info windows, the window appears and then closes immediately. When you click an Info button with the mouse, the Info window remains open until you press Esc .

Workaround

Click the Info button with the mouse.

Import Config JAR Dialog Has Incorrect Default Focus

• Bug: 17950304
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

The Import Config JAR dialog defaults the focus to the "Input Source" flow diagram at the top of the dialog, which does not include active objects

Workaround

Press the Tab key to bring the focus to the Browse button for the configuration JAR input.

KSS Keystore Might Require Updates After Import

• Bug: 17799824
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

The default keystore for Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) is now KSS. Any imported resources that previously used the JKS keystore might require either updates to the KSS settings or overriding the setting to use KSS. KSS keystore does not use passwords and does not require credential store, so these override properties might not be correct in the imported project.

Workaround

If you have overrides configured for keystore.sig.csf.key and keystore.enc.csf.key to csf-key, you need to change their values to give the direct keystore alias instead of csf-key. If you use default values (that is, no overrides), you can skip this step.

Updating REST Binding Fault Schema Results in Error

• Bug: 17625172
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

When you create a REST business service and add the fault binding for the response, you should not be able to change the schema type of the fault. However, the REST Binding wizard allows this. Editing the schema here returns a WADL validation error.

Workaround

Do not change the default schema.

Admin Server Log Contains an aia-log-debug-handler Error Post-Upgrade

• Bug: 17381835
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

The following message appears only once during the first re-start of the Admin server after you upgrade to 12c. The error does not indicate any issues with the AIA logging functionality and can be ignored.

The handler 'aia-log-debug-handler' is already defined in the target logging @ configuration document.

Null Pointer Exceptions Occur When Projects and Resources in JDeveloper Are in the Wrong Location

• Bug: 17299328
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

When you create projects and resources in a folder location outside of the folder of the containing application, null pointer exceptions occur when you perform certain tasks, such as importing resources. Creating resources outside of the application folder is not currently supported.

Workaround

Make sure to create all projects, folders, and resources under the directory of the containing application.

Runtime Validation for content-type is More Strict

• Bug: 17187825
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

In 12c, content-type validation is more strict than in previous versions. Therefore, requests with bad content-type that were previously allowed are no longer allowed in the current version. One example is sending a SOAP message with the content-type set to text/plain. This request would now be rejected.

Workaround

Configure the correct content-type for 12c services.

Creating a Global Policy Generates a Design-Time Conflict

• Bug: 16894883
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If a proxy or business service is configured for OWSM policies and matches the configuration of an existing global policy set but does not support all of the policies in the global policy set, the following error occurs when you update the service in a new session, and a conflict is generated.

[OSB-398128]One of the Web service policy attached is not allowed on service path/resource_name because the service binding does not support it.

Workaround

When you create a global policy set with policies that are not supported by non-SOAP services, make sure that the policy set is configured specifically enough to exclude any non-SOAP services.

Log4j is no Longer Added to the System Classpath

• Bug: 16729226
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

Oracle Service Bus no longer adds log4j.jar to the system classpath automatically. If any of your applications or Java callouts depend on log4j being in the system classpath, add it to the classpath manually.

Moving a Service Causes Duplication in Policy Usage Analysis

• Bug: 16711022
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If you move a proxy or business service with locally attached OWSM policies from one folder to another or from one project to another, the service is listed twice on the WebLogic Domain > WSM Policy > Usage Analysis page in Fusion Middleware Control. The expected behavior is that the service no longer appears in its original location on the usage analysis page, but it appears under both the original and the new locations.

Renaming a Service Causes Duplication in Policy Usage Analysis

• Bug: 16704604
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If you rename a SOAP-based proxy or business service with locally attached OWSM policies, the service is listed twice on the WebLogic Domain > WSM Policy > Usage Analysis page in Fusion Middleware Control, once under its original name and once under its new name. The expected behavior is that the service no longer appears with its original name on the usage analysis page.

Deleted Services Still Appear in Policy Usage Analysis

• Bug: 16704586
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

If you delete a SOAP-based proxy or business service with locally attached OWSM policies, the service continues to appear on the WebLogic Domain > WSM Policy > Usage Analysis page in Fusion Middleware Control. The expected behavior is that the service no longer appears on the usage analysis page.

Unable to Create Durable Subscriptions on AQ Topics

• Bug: 14321803
• Added: 10-June-2014
• Platform: All

On Oracle AQ, the subscriber name must be between 1 and 30 bytes long. Oracle Service Bus uses an MDB for JMS subscriptions, and generates the MDB name using the format "RequestEJB"+GUID. The GUID alone can be longer than 30 characters. When the MDB name is longer than 30 characters, an error similar to the following is logged:

RequestEJB5599235263010875116XX3906baed.137fe8c76cf.X7fc6 is unable to connect to the JMS destination:
jms.fromSys1toSys2. The Error was: oracle.jms.AQjmsException: JMS-230: Illegal operation on durable subscription with active TopicSubscriber

Assign Activity Produces an Empty Message Body if a New Line Character Exists

• Bug: 16205232
• Added: 07-March-2013
• Platform: All

The resulting message body is empty if a proxy service processes an XML string with a newline character after the XML declaration (), the message flow includes an Assign activity that uses fn-bea:inlinedXML() to assign that XML string to a variable, and the message flow uses the variable to replace the contents of $body. This is related to issue 13902323, caused by the fn-bea:inlinedxml() function trimming whitespace when parsing text to XML.

Pass-Through Pipeline Might Marshall and Unmarshall Message Body

• Bug: 15908859
• Added: 29-January-2013
• Platform: All

If the message flow in a pipeline is configured to simply pass messages through with no modification, the messages are still parsed by the XML parser if the message content is accessed and read during processing. This means the original text is materialized into XMLBeans and then back into XML. For example, the message might be processed in a pass-through scenario, but be accessed and read by a logger during processing. In this case, the message is materialized into XMLBeans. When the message body includes decimal or hexadecimal representation of characters, the XML parser resolves these representations to the actual characters. Note that only the character representation of the information is changed and not the information itself.

Workaround:

If there are character representations in the message content and you want to preserve the original character representations instead of converting them to the actual characters, either make sure the message body is unread during processing to ensure it is truly pass-through, or specify the representations inside a CDATA section before the message is received by Service Bus. For example:

JCA Polling Proxy Services Generate Stuck Thread Errors

• Bug: 14831608
• Added: 29-January-2013
• Platform: All

Proxy services configured for JCA polling adapters (such as the JCA File Adapter, DB Adapter, AQ Adapter, and so on) might generate errors in the server log indicating that the thread is stuck, which causes the server's health status to change to WARNING. The errors are caused by the single listening thread created in the default Work Manager. This thread is non-terminating so the services can continue to poll for new events, but this means the thread necessarily remains busy longer than the configured maximum time. The error message indicates that the thread has been busy for "xx" seconds working on the request, which is more than the configured time (StuckThreadMaxTime) of "xx" seconds. The errors can be ignored, but might also fill up the server log.

Workaround:

Because these error messages do not indicate a true problem, they can be suppressed. To do this, create a new Work Manager with the following setting:

true

Then modify the service's Dispatch Policy in the transport settings to use the new Work Manager. Any new stuck thread messages are written to the new Work Manager instead of cluttering up the default Work Manager.

Harmless Warning for JEJB 3.0 Proxy Service

• Bug: 14321779
• Added: 29-January-2013
• Platform: All

After a JEJB 3.0 proxy service is created and activated, the following warning message appears in the managed server logs:

  <"config-root"///plan was not found>

This warning is harmless and can be ignored.

JCA Polling Proxy Services Generate Stuck Thread Errors

Starting Managed Server with IPv6 Host and Port Throws BEA-000000 Error

• Bug: 10029204
• Updated: 14-January-2011
• Platform: All

In the development environment, when starting a managed server by passing the managed server's IPv6 address and port, Oracle Service Bus throws a BEA-000000 "Cannot contact Admin server" error.

Workaround:

Create a new key-pair, then reconfigure SSL on the Admin server so that the key-pair in the server-side SSL certificate uses the host name of your IPv6 managed server. Then restart your managed server. For more information on SSL, see Configuring SSL in Administering Security for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Password Field Not Editable in Domain Template on Linux

• Bug: 10394900
• Updated: 14-January-2011
• Platform: Linux

On Linux, when creating a new domain using a developer template in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard, the password and confirm password fields are not editable, and you cannot enter a password to create a domain.

Workaround:

To work around the issue each time it occurs:

Click the close window "x" button in the upper right corner of the Configuration Wizard. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click "No" to return to the Configuration Wizard. Now you can enter the password and confirmation password.

To fix the issue permanently:

Kill a scim processes. For example, kill "pgrep scim"
Modify (or create) the file ~/.scim/config to include the following line:
/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic = true (follow case sensitivity). If you are running VNC, restart the VNC server.
Run the Configuration Wizard again.

MQ Transport in Binding Mode Throws Error on Linux

• Bug: 10020344
• Updated: 14-January-2011
• Platform: Linux

When Oracle Service Bus and IBM WebSphere MQ are installed on the same Linux system, configuring the Oracle Service Bus MQ transport to run in binding mode causes an error.

Workaround:

Make sure Oracle Service Bus and IBM WebSphere MQ are installed using the same user credentials.

Click the close window "x" button in the upper right corner of the Configuration Wizard. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click "No" to return to the Configuration Wizard. Now you can enter the password and confirmation password.

Add the MQ Java library path to the Oracle Service Bus DOMAIN_HOME/bin/setDomainEnv.sh file. For example:
-Djava.library.path=/opt/mqm/java/lib
Oracle JRockit: When using Oracle JRockit on Linux, add the LD_PRELOAD property to setDomainEnv.sh as well. For example: LD_PRELOAD=${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/i386/libjsig.so

Resources Disappear When Server Encoding Changes

• Bug: 9488927
• Updated: 14-January-2011
• Platform: Linux

After creating resources in the Oracle Service Bus Console, then changing the server encoding and restarting the server with the different encoding, only English language resources (if any) appear in the Oracle Service Bus Console. Non-English resources do not appear. For example, if you start the server using ja_JP.utf8 encoding and create resources in the Oracle Service Bus Console with Japanese, Korean, and English names, then restart the server using a different encoding such as ko_KR.euckr, only the English-name resources appear in the Oracle Service Bus Console. In this situation, the missing resources still exist but are not displayed because of the encoding change.

Workaround:

Switch back to the original server encoding and restart the server. Oracle Service Bus does not support server encoding changes.

Importing SSL certificates for UCM/WebCenter endpoints

• Bug: 22588159
• Updated: 08-February-2016
• Platform: All

MFT Keystore Service is not used for UCM endpoint certificates

Workaround:

To connect WebCenter source/targets via HTTPS URL, import the WebCenter endpoints certificate into the Demo Trust and JDK keystorestores. Restart the server after importing the certificates.

The default location of the keystores are:
JDK - $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts

Backward compatibility of SOAP services

• Bug: 20476899
• Updated: 12-January-2016
• Platform: All

When upgrading from 12.1.3 to 12.2.1 release, if users have MFT specific projects created in older versions using JDev, specifically when MFT is the target for SOA composite (not when it is a source for SOA), users need to correct the WSDL definition of existing SOA/SOAP projects by opening them via JDev and redeploying the composite.

To run old composites without upgrading to 12.2.1, set the system property "oracle.xdkjava.compatibility.version=11.1.1".

Workaround

Swap the parts in the WSDL definition, first part is the payload and all remaining parts are headers.

For example,

Output for combination of UNIONALL with MINUS/UNION on subquery is not as expected

• Bug ID: 20055734
• Added: 13-October-2015
• Platform: All

The output in case of sub queries with a combination of the CQL Operators UNIONALL and MINUS or UNION is not as expected. This is a precedence issue in CQL grammar for binary operators.

Workaround:

Use the parenthesis at appropriate places in the sub query based query to get the appropriate behavior. For example, instead of

select c1,c2,c3 from ch0[rows 1000] union all select c1,c2,c3 from ch1[rows 1000]

minus select c1,c2,c3 from ch2[rows 1000]use
(select c1,c2,c3 from ch0[rows 1000] union all select c1,c2,c3 from ch1[rows 1000]) 
minus 
select c1,c2,c3 from ch2[rows 1000]

WLEVSJConsole does not work on Windows because of wrong Class path

Special Handle for Timestamp Type Conversion between CQL and JDBC with Derby

• Bug ID: 18311700
• Added: 8-June-2015
• Platform: All

When you join a stream with the Derby database, where the join condition compares two timestamp values where one value is from the stream attribute and the other value is from the Derby data source attribute, the Derby database performs the predicate evaluation. However, the Derby database supports only the yyyy-mm-dd-HH.mm.ss[.nnnnnn] format. For the Derby database to perform the evaluation correctly, the stream timestamp value must use the Derby database format.

Workaround:

Convert the timestamp from the stream to the Derby database format. The to_timestamp expression in the WHERE clause in the following example performs the conversion.

SELECT t.testTimestamp

FROM S1[NOW] as s, T1 as t
WHERE to_timestamp(to_char(s.testTimestamp, 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss'),
'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss') = t.testTimestamp
If the timestamp value contains a fractional second component,
 use the appropriate format to parse the fraction 
component as shown in the following example:
SELECT t.testTimestamp
FROM S1[NOW] as s, T1 as t
WHERE to_timestamp(to_char(s.testTimestamp, 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS'),
'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS') = t.testTimestamp
