Please remember...
The HTTP Server can be accessed using the following URLs:
http://host.domain.com:7777
https://host.domain.com:4443
The Enterprise Manager Console can be accessed using the following URL:
http://host.domain.com:1810
IMPORTANT:
==========
Before doing any middle tier install using this Infrastructure verify that
Infrastructure is working fine by accessing the following urls:
http://host.domain.com:7777/pls/orasso
Then click Login and Sign is as orcladmin/<ias admin password given during
the installation>
Also try URL:
http://host.domain.com:7777/oiddas
Successful startup of 9iAS R2 Infrastructure will be required by any middle tier
installation against this infratructure.
9iAS Unified Messaging Install
==============================
15.Install portion #2 - 9iAS Unified Messaging Install (separate $ORACLE_HOME)
15a. /home/ias/infrastructure/bin/emctl stop
Enter Management password: (password for ias_admin)
Note:
EM website must be stopped before installing Unified Messaging. Otherwise,
Oracle Installer will return an error message stating EM website must be stopped.
@ As root:
@ rm -rf /etc/emtab
@
@ READ BELOW:
@ Removing /etc/emtab as user root is necessary in order to proceed with
@ middle tier installation if both infrastructure and middle tier will be
@ installed on the same box. Otherwise, OUI will not continue and will detect
@ EM website up and running even if emctl stop command was run
@ This problem has been bugged (Bug# 2382588) and does not seem to reproduce
@ on any other Unix platform or SuSe linux.
@
@ Note that removing /etc/emtab is not supported by 9iAS development and doing
@ so will not allow individual Infrastructure components be displayed on EM
@ website after middle tier installation is completed. Infrastructure component
@ administration/configuration can only be done thru command line
@ This should only be done on Development/testing environments and only when 2
@ Linux boxes are not available for multi-tier installs!
15b. Set "ias" Environments for Unified Messaging Install
As ias user:
su ias
ORACLE_BASE /home/ias;export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME /home/ias/unified;export ORACLE_HOME
LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/local/lib;export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
TNS_ADMIN /home/ias/infrastructure/network/admin;export TNS_ADMIN
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY
IMPORTANT!
Make sure TNS_ADMIN environment points to infrastructure's $OH/network/admin
if installing both infrastructure and middle tier on the same Linux box.
Otherwise, some of the middle tier (unified messaging) Configuration Assistants
will fail as there will be conflict with TNS Listener ports.
16. Start runInstaller
As ias:
Step 1 - Insert 9iAS release 2 CDROM #1 and wait for the OS to mount cdrom
drive automatically. You will see cdrom content on GUI popup window once
mounted, close this window (X).
Step 2 - Go to Unix prompt and make sure $ORACLE_BASE,$ORACLE_HOME and
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH environments are in place. (i.e. echo $ORACLE_HOME)
Step 3 - cd $ORACLE_HOME

complete.
Click "Exit"
Post install suggestions and references:
---------------------------------------
This section is divided into common scenarios found after completing
Oracle9i Application Server Unified Messaging Edition installation. For
each scenario suggestions and/or solutions are provided.
This section is to provide a quick getting started guide. For in-depth
information on product usage consult 9iAS release 2 documentation.
NOTE:
====
Scenarios below have been tested to work without installing mandatory
interoperatibility patchset. It is assumed that this mandatory patchet is
installed successfully before using 9iAS release 2 in production environments.
Mandatory interoperatibility patchset installation should be done using
patchset Release Note instructions and this is beyond the scope of this
bulletin.
I. To verify that everything is installed and running ...
-----------------------------------------------------
Open web browser and go to Enterprise Manager console URL
http://host.domain.com:1810
Enter username -> ias_admin
Enter password -> manager1 (or your password)
Here you will see Enterprise Manager console page showing 2 Standalone Instances,
iasdb.host.domain.com and unified.host.domain.com. Both instances will a GREEN
check mark for Status column if all install steps above were performed
and completed.
Navigate around Enterprise Manager console to become familar with this GUI
administraction interface.
Note: EM console may be slow specially if running both infrastructure and
unified messaging products on the same Unix server with less than 1GB of
physical memory.
II. How to view and run examples/demos
--------------------------------------
Open web browser and go to 9iAS welcome page
http://host.domain.com:7778
Click on "Demostrations" tab on top page menu
All available sample applications will be displayed on
a menu bar on the left hand side of this page.
Run any of the demos available by clicking on them.
NOTE: Some demos require additional setup/configuration. If this is the case
additional configuration information will be displayed.
III. Accessing Portals welcome page to verify installation
----------------------------------------------------------
Open web browser and go to 9iAS welcome page
http://host.domain.com:7778
Click on "Demostrations" tab on top page menu
Click on "Portal and Wireless" on left menu
Click on "Portal" Demo
Alternatively, the Portal welcome page can be reached at URL
http://host.domain.com:7778/pls/portal
If you can not access portal and see following error:
??: servlet ??????????java.io.IOException: Unsupported character encoding: "WINDOWS-936"
You can correct this by:
1) Add the following line in your $IAS_HOME/Apache/modplsql/dads.conf.
2) PLsqlCGIEnvironmentList REQUEST_IANA_CHARSET=GBK After the line that defines the NLS_LANG, that is after : PlsqlNLSLanguage AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
3) Clean all your cache diretories under $IAS_HOME/Apache/modplsql/cache/session and $IAS_HOME/Apache/modplsql/cache/plsql
4) restart all services for infrastructure and mid tier .
5) Clean you borwser cache and access portal.
IV. Accessing Oracle Internet Directory Self Service Console
------------------------------------------------------------
Open web browser and go to 9iAS welcome page
http://host.domain.com:7777/oiddas/
From this site you can:
- Change your own profile settings
- Search for people and other information stored in OID
- Administrators can add and/or modify directory/information.
To login as administrator:
-------------------------
Click on "administrator" link or tab menu
User Name: orcladmin
Password: manager1 (or choice)
Click "Login" button
Consult OID documentation for further help.
如何使Portal显示中文
步骤一：获取portal和orasso两个schema的密码
l Linux shell script:
#!/bin/ksh
ldapsearch -h ias.com -p 4032 -D "cn=orcladmin" -w "manager1" -b "cn=IAS Infrastructure Databases,cn=IAS,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" -s sub "orclResourceName=portal" orclpasswordattribute
ldapsearch -h ias.com -p 4032 -D "cn=orcladmin" -w "manager1" -b "cn=IAS Infrastructure Databases,cn=IAS,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" -s sub "orclResourceName=orasso" orclpasswordattribute
Please replace ias.com with your hostname and manager1 with your oid password
这样可以得到两个密码，一个是Portal的，一个是orasso的
步骤二：使用OPCA增加Portal的语言支持
在安装PORTAL的机器上
编写脚本 zhs.bat ：
l Windows CMD script:
set ORACLE_HOME=c:\oracle\iaspw
%ORACLE_HOME%\assistants\opca\ptlasst.bat -mode LANGUAGE -s portal -sp portal-password -o orasso -op orasso-password -c myhost.domain.com:1521:mySID -lang zhs -available -silent -verbose
l Linux shell:
csh $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/opca/ptlasst.csh -mode LANGUAGE -s portal -sp NS9JpVce -o orasso –op T6DD06h6 -c oracle9i.vm.demo:1521:iasdb -lang zhs -available -silent -verbose
运行指南：
用步骤一中获取的portal、orasso的密码分别取代上面脚本中的portal-password和orasso-password。然后运行脚本。
步骤三 ：在Portal中使用中文
成功运行步骤二以后，重启portal server在Portal和SSO中应该会多出来一个语言选择：简体中文。点击以后，界面会自动进行汉化。
在Portal中，Portal Tools下提供一个Portlet：Set Language。使用这个Portlet可以在Portal支持的多种语言之间进行切换。
