This section describes how to set up Oracle Access Manager 11g as the single sign-on solution for the Oracle WebCenter Content enterprise deployment topology. It contains the following sections:
Section 18.2.1, "Overview of Oracle Access Manager Integration"
Section 18.2.5, "Setting Up the WebLogic Server Authentication Providers"
This section explains the procedure for configuring the Oracle WebCenter Content installation with an existing Oracle Access Manager 11g installation, with Oracle Internet Directory as the underlying directory service. For more information about installing and configuring an Oracle Access Manager installation, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management.
Note:
The Oracle WebCenter Content enterprise deployment topology described in this guide uses a single sign-on configuration in which both the Oracle WebCenter Content system and the single sign-on system are in the same network domain (mycompany.com
). For a multidomain configuration, see the required configuration steps in "Introduction to the OAM Policy Model, Single Sign-On" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Access Manager with Oracle Security Token Service.
The setup for Oracle Access Manager assumes an existing Oracle Access Manager 11g installation. For more information on installing and configuring an Oracle Access Manager installation, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management. This setup includes Oracle Internet Directory as the directory service.
In addition, the Oracle Access Manager installation should have its own Web server configured with WebGate.
This section describes the procedures for registering the WebGate Agent on each of the WEBHOST machines:
Section 18.2.3.2, "Updating the Oracle Access Manager 11g Request File"
Section 18.2.3.4, "Changing the inspection.wsil Resource to Use the Basic Authentication Scheme"
Section 18.2.3.6, "Copying Access Files to WEBHOST Machines"
The RREG tool is part of the Oracle Access Manager 11g installation. If it is not already available, extract it on each of the Oracle Identity Management machines.
To extract the RREG tool:
After installing and configuring Oracle Access Manager, navigate to the following location:
IDM_Home/oam/server/rreg/client
On the command line, untar the RREG.tar.gz
file using gunzip
, as in the following example:
gunzip RREG.tar.gz tar -xzvf RREG.tar
Open the RREG_HOME
/bin/oamreg.sh
script, and change the OAM_REG_HOME
parameter according to your setup, if necessary.
The RREG Configuration Tool provides a way to register protected and public resources into the Oracle Access Manager system. The list of protected resources to be added to the Oracle Access Manager system is as follows:
/adfAuthentication /imaging/faces /em /console /DefaultToDoTaskFlow /sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui /integration/worklistapp /workflow/sdpmessagingsca-ui-worklist /soa/composer /soa-infra /soa-infra/deployer /soa-infra/events/edn-db-log /soa-infra/cluster/info /inspection.wsil /dc-console/adfAuthentication /dc-client/adfAuthentication
The list of public resources follows:
/cs /_ocsh /imaging /soa-infra/directWSDL /dc-console /dc-client
The list of excluded resources follows:
/wsm-pm /soa-infra/services /ucs/messaging/webservice
The RREG_Home
/input/
directory contains a template file named OAM11gRequest.xml
. Copy this file to WCCOAM11gRequest.xml
, and edit that file to create the policies for the Oracle WebCenter Content installation.
Note:
Replace OAM_HOST
, OAM_ADMINSERVER_PORT
,
WCC_EDG_AGENT
, and WCC_EDG_DOMAIN
with their respective values in your installation.
After editing, the file should look as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <OAM11GRegRequest> <serverAddress>http://OAM_HOST:OAM_ADMINSERVER_PORT</serverAddress> <agentName>WCC_EDG_AGENT</agentName> <applicationDomain>WCC_EDG_DOMAIN</applicationDomain> <cachePragmaHeader>private</cachePragmaHeader> <cacheControlHeader>private</cacheControlHeader> <ipValidation>1</ipValidation> <ValList ListName="ipValidationExceptions"> <ValListMember Value="10.1.1.1"/> </ValList> <logOutUrls> <url>/oamsso/logout.html</url> </logOutUrls> <protectedResourcesList> <resource>/adfAuthentication</resource> <resource>/imaging/faces</resource> <resource>/em</resource> <resource>/console</resource> <resource>/DefaultToDoTaskFlow</resource> <resource>/sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui</resource> <resource>/integration/worklistapp</resource> <resource>/workflow/sdpmessagingsca-ui-worklist</resource> <resource>/soa/composer</resource> <resource>/soa-infra/deployer</resource> <resource>/soa-infra/events/edn-db-log</resource> <resource>/soa-infra/cluster/info</resource> <resource>/inspection.wsil</resource> <resource>/soa-infra</resource> <resource>/dc-console/adfAuthentication</resource> <resource>/dc-client/adfAuthentication</resource> </protectedResourcesList> <publicResourcesList> <resource>/cs</resource> <resource>/_ocsh</resource> <resource>/imaging</resource> <resource>/soa-infra/directWSDL</resource> <resource>/dc-console</resource> <resource>/dc-client</resource> </publicResourcesList> <excludedResourcesList> <resource>/wsm-pm</resource> <resource>/soa-infra/services</resource> <resource>/ucs/messaging/webservice</resource> </excludedResourcesList> <userDefinedParameters> <userDefinedParam> <name>filterOAMAuthnCookie</name> <value>false</value> </userDefinedParam> </userDefinedParameters> </OAM11GRegRequest>
Notes:
The resource_name
/.../*
resources will be automatically added during the registration.
This guide describes the validation field entry in request files for Oracle Access Manager 11g (11.1.1.2) and later. The validation exception list is defined differently in earlier versions of Oracle Access Manager 11g. For earlier versions, instead of using the <ValList>
entry as shown in the preceding text, use the following syntax after the </publicResourcesList>
entry.
<userDefinedParameters> <userDefinedParam> <name>ipValidationExceptions</name> <value>10.1.1.1</value> </userDefinedParam> </userDefinedParameters>
For more information about adding validation exceptions, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Access Manager with Oracle Security Token Service.
Run the oamreg tool with the following command:
$ ./RREG_Home/bin/oamreg.sh inband input/WCCOAM11gRequest.xml
The run should look as follows:

Output artifacts are created in the output folder.
By default, the inspection.wsil
resource is set to use the form authentication scheme. For the connection between the workflow and Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging to work, this resource must be updated on each of the WEBHOST machines to use the basic authentication scheme instead.
To change the inspection.wsil
resource to use the basic authentication scheme:
Log in to the Oracle Access Manager console at http://
OAM_HOST
:
OAM_ADMINSERVER_PORT
/oamconsole
.
Using the navigation tree on the left, click Application Domains and then the application domain name to navigate to the application domain created (WCC_EDG_DOMAIN
).
Expand your application domain's name.
Expand Authentication Policies.
Double-click Protected Resource Policy.
Select the inspection.wsil
and inspection.wsil/.../*
resources, and click the Delete icon in the Resources pane to remove them.
Click Apply, and confirm the action when prompted.
In the navigation tree, click Authentication Policies again, and click the Create button in the tool bar above the navigation tree:
Enter a name for the policy (for example, New Basic Policy
).
Select BasicSessionlessScheme as the authentication scheme.
Click Apply.
You will see the newly created policy under Authentication Policies in the navigation tree.
Open the newly created policy.
On the Resources pane, click the add icon (plus sign) on the right, and add the inspection.wsil
and inspection.wsil/.../*
resources.
Click Apply.
Click the refresh icon on the navigation tree, and verify the new authentication policy (click it, and make sure the inspection.wsil
and inspection.wsil/.../*
resources were added).
Note:
Do not forget to create a new credential for the new user. See Section 14.5.14, "Configuring a BPEL CSF Credential" for further details. (This book uses the weblogic_ecm
user as an example for SSO.)
You must set the NoUniqueSessionsFor10gAgents
parameter in the Oracle Access Manager 11g configuration to true
on each of the OAMHOST machines. To do this, edit the oam-config.xml
file located in the IDM_Home
/oam/server/config/
directory, and change the line
<Setting Name="NoUniqueSessionsFor10gAgents" Type="xsd:string">false</Setting>
to
<Setting Name="NoUniqueSessionsFor10gAgents" Type="xsd:string">true</Setting>
Save the file, and restart the Oracle Access Manager server in your Oracle Identity Management system for the change to take effect.
The following two files are generated in RREG_Home
/output/
WCC_EDG_AGENT
:
ObAccessClient.xml
cwallet.sso
Copy these files to the WebGate instance location on each of the WEBHOST machines:
scp ObAccessClient.xml oracle@WEBHOSTN:ORACLE_BASE/admin/webN/config/OHS/ohsN/ webgate/config/ scp cwallet.sso oracle@WEBHOSTN:ORACLE_BASE/admin/webN/config/OHS/ohsN/ webgate/config/
In the scp
command, N
is a sequential number for your installation; for example, 1
for WEBHOST1
or 2
for WEBHOST2
.
You must set up a WebGate on each of the WEBHOST machines where Oracle HTTP Server has already been installed.
This section covers the following topics:
You must download and install third-party GCC libraries on each of the WEBHOST machines before installing WebGate. You can download the appropriate GCC library from the following third-party website:
http://gcc.gnu.org
Note:
The setup in this guide uses Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g (11.1.1.6.0). For version 11.1.1.7.0 or later, installation of third-party GCC libraries is not necessary.
For 32-bit Linux, the required libraries are libgcc_s.so.1 and libstdc++.so.5 with a version number of 3.3.2. Table 18-3 lists the versions of third-party GCC libraries for Linux and Solaris operating systems.

This section describes the procedures for installing WebGate. You must install WebGate on each of the WEBHOST machines.
The installer program for Oracle HTTP Server 11g Webgate for Oracle Access Manager is included in the webgate.zip
file.
To launch the installation wizard:
Extract the contents of the webgate.zip
file to a directory. By default, this directory is named webgate
.
Move to the Disk1 subdirectory under the webgate directory.
Set the WEB_HOME environment variable to the Middleware home for Oracle Web Tier:
export MW_HOME=ORACLE_BASE/product/fmw export WEB_HOME=MW_HOME/web
Start the installer using the following command:
$ ./runInstaller -jreLoc MW_HOME/jdk
Note:
When you install Oracle HTTP Server, the jdk
directory is created under the Middleware home directory. You must enter the absolute path of the JRE folder located in this JDK when launching the installer.
After the installer starts, the Welcome screen opens.
If you need additional help with any of the installation screens, click Help to access the online help.
To install Oracle HTTP Server 11g Webgate for Oracle Access Manager:
In the Welcome screen, click Next.
In the Prerequisite Checks screen, click Next.
In the Specify Installation Location screen, specify the Oracle Middleware Home and Oracle Home Directory locations:
ORACLE_BASE
/product/fmw
Oracle_OAMWebGate1
(leave the default name)
Note:
The Middleware home contains an Oracle home for Oracle Web Tier. The default name is Oracle_OAMWebGate1
for this Oracle home directory, which will be created under the Middleware home.
Click Next.
In the Specify GCC Library screen, specify the directory that contains the GCC libraries, or click Browse to navigate to their location on your local computer (see Section 18.2.4.1, "Installing GCC Libraries"), and click Next.
In the Installation Summary screen, verify the information on this screen and click Install to begin the installation.
In the Installation Progress screen, you may be prompted to run the ORACLE_HOME
/oracleRoot.sh
script to set up the proper file and directory permissions.
Click Next to continue.
In the Installation Complete screen, click Finish to exit the installer.
Complete the following procedure on each of the WEBHOST machines after installing Oracle HTTP Server 11g Webgate for Oracle Access Manager.
To do postinstallation steps:
Move to the following directory under your Oracle Home for Webgate:
$ cd Webgate_Oracle_Home/webgate/ohs/tools/deployWebGate
Webgate_Oracle_Home
is the directory where you have installed Oracle HTTP Server Webgate and created the Oracle Home for Webgate; for example:
WEB_ORACLE_HOME/Oracle_OAMWebGate1
Note:
Oracle_OAMWebGate1
is the default.
On the command line, run the following command (on a single line) to copy the required bits of agent from the Webgate_Oracle_Home
directory to the Webgate Instance location:
$ ./deployWebGateInstance.sh -w ORACLE_BASE/admin/webN/config/OHS/ohsN -oh Webgate_Oracle_Home
The ORACLE_BASE
/admin/web
N
/config/OHS/ohs
N
directory is the instance home of an Oracle HTTP Server (where N
is a sequential number for your installation; for example, 1
for WEBHOST1
or 2
for WEBHOST2
).
Note:
An instance home for Oracle HTTP Server is created after you configure Oracle HTTP Server.
Run the following command to ensure that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
variable contains Oracle_Home_for_Oracle_HTTP_Server
/lib
:
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:ORACLE_BASE/product/fmw/webN/lib
From your present working directory, move up one directory level:
$ cd Webgate_Oracle_Home/webgate/ohs/tools/setup/InstallTools
On the command line, run the following command (on a single line) to copy apache_webgate.template from the Webgate_Oracle_Home
directory to the Webgate Instance location (renamed to webgate.conf
) and update the httpd.conf file to add one line to include the name of webgate.conf
:
$ ./EditHttpConf -w ORACLE_BASE/admin/webN/config/OHS/ohsN [-oh Webgate_Oracle_Home] [-o output_file]
Note:
The -oh
WebGate_Oracle_Home
and -o
output_file
parameters are optional.
In the command, WebGate_Oracle_Home
is the directory where you have installed Oracle HTTP Server Webgate for Oracle Access Manager. This directory is the Oracle home for Webgate; for example:
MW_HOME/Oracle_OAMWebGate1
The ORACLE_BASE
/admin/web
N
/config/OHS/ohs
N
/
directory is the instance home of Oracle HTTP Server, where N
is a sequential number for your installation; for example, 1
for WEBHOST1
or 2
for WEBHOST2
.
The output_file
value is the name of the temporary output file used by the tool; for example:
Edithttpconf.log
This section is based on the assumption that you have already set up the LDAP authentication provider by following the steps in Section 10.3.2, "Creating the LDAP Authentication Provider." If you have not already created the LDAP authentication provider, do it before continuing with this section.
This section covers the following topics:
To be safe, first back up the relevant configuration files:
ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/domain_name/config/config.xml ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/domain_name/config/fmwconfig/jps-config.xml ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/domain_name/config/fwmconfig/system-jazn-data.xml
In addition, back up the boot.properties
file for the Administration Server.
Set up an Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider in the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console.
To set up the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider:
Log in to the WebLogic Server Administration Console, if not already logged in.
Click Lock & Edit.
Navigate to SecurityRealms, then the default realm name, and then Providers.
Name the asserter (for example, OAM ID Asserter
) and click OK.
Click New, and select the asserter type OAMIdentityAsserter from the dropdown menu.
Click the newly added asserter to see the configuration screen for the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider.
Set the control flag to REQUIRED
.
Select both the ObSSOCookie and OAM_REMOTE_USER options under Chosen types.
Save the settings, and click Activate Changes to propagate the changes.
Finally, log in to the WLST console as an administrator, and run the following command:
addOAMSSOProvider(loginuri="/${app.context}/adfAuthentication",logouturi="/oamsso/logout.html")
Set the order of identity assertion and authentication providers in the WebLogic Server Administration Console.
To set the order of the providers:
Log in to the WebLogic Server Administration Console, if not already logged in.
Click Lock & Edit.
Navigate to SecurityRealms, then the default realm name, and then Providers.
Reorder the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider, the Oracle Internet Directory authentication provider, and the default authentication provider by ensuring that the control flag for each provider is set as follows:
Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider: REQUIRED
Oracle Internet Directory authentication provider: SUFFICIENT
DefaultAuthenticator
: SUFFICIENT
Click OK.
Click Activate Changes to propagate the changes.
Restart the Administration Server and all Managed Servers.
Stop the Administration Server with the nmKill
command, or with the Administration Console, and then starting it with the nmStart
command, as described in Section 11.3, "Restarting the Administration Server."
Before the restart, stop all Managed Servers in the domain through the Administration Console, and then start them after the restart. Log in to the Administration Console using the credentials for the weblogic_ecm
user.
This section describes how to set up Oracle Access Manager 10g as the single sign-on solution for the Oracle WebCenter Content enterprise deployment topology. It contains the following sections:
Section 18.3.1, "Overview of Oracle Access Manager Integration"
Section 18.3.2, "Prerequisites for Oracle Access Manager 10g"
Section 18.3.5, "Configuring IP Address Validation for the Enterprise Deployment Webgate"
Section 18.3.6, "Setting up the Oracle Access Manager Identity Assertion Provider"
This section explains the procedure for configuring the Oracle WebCenter Content installation with an existing Oracle Access Manager 10g installation and Oracle Internet Directory as the underlying directory service. For information about installing and configuring an Oracle Access Manager installation, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management.
Note:
The Oracle WebCenter Content enterprise deployment topology described in this book uses a single sign-on configuration in which both the Oracle WebCenter Content system and the single sign-on system are in the same network domain (mycompany.com
). For a multidomain configuration, see the required configuration steps in "Introduction to the OAM Policy Model, Single Sign-On" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Access Manager with Oracle Security Token Service.
The setup for Oracle Access Manager assumes an existing Oracle Access Manager 10g installation. For more information on installing and configuring an Oracle Access Manager installation, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management. This setup includes Oracle Internet Directory as the directory service.
In addition, the Oracle Access Manager installation should have its own Web server configured with WebGate.
This section covers the following topics:
Section 18.3.3.1, "Collecting the Information for the OAM Configuration Tool"
Section 18.3.3.4, "Verifying Creation of the Policy Domain and AccessGate"
Section 18.3.3.9, "Configuring Delegated Form Authentication"
The OAM Configuration Tool (oamcfg) starts a series of scripts and sets up the required policies for Oracle Access Manager. It requires various parameters as inputs. Specifically, it creates the following:
A form authentication scheme in Oracle Access Manager
Policies to enable authentication in WebLogic Server
A WebGate entry in Oracle Access Manager to enable Oracle HTTP Server WebGates (from your Web Tier) to protect your configured application
A host identifier, depending on the scenario chosen (a default host identifier would be used, if not provided)
A host identifier, depending on the scenario chosen (a default host identifier would be used, if not provided)
Policies to protect and unprotect application specific URLs.
The following information should be collected or prepared prior to running the OAM Configuration Tool:
Password: Create a secure password. This will be used as the password for the WebGate installation created later.
LDAP Host: host name of the directory server or load balancer address in the case of a high-availability or enterprise deployment configuration.
Note:
The load balancer host name is the one that was used to configure the virtual servers in Section 3.3, "Load Balancers."
LDAP Port: port of the directory server.
LDAP USER DN: DN of the LDAP admin user. This will be a value such as cn=orcladmin
.
LDAP password: password of the LDAP admin user.
oam_aaa_host: host name of an Oracle Access Manager.
oam_aaa_port: port of the Oracle Access Manager.
Run the OAM Configuration Tool to add the required resources to Oracle Access Manager for the Oracle WebCenter Content components. Create a file containing the list of URIs you want to protect with the following content:
######################################### #Product Name: Oracle WebCenter Content ######################################### ######################################### protected_uris ######################################### /adfAuthentication /imaging/faces /em /console /DefaultToDoTaskFlow /sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui /integration/worklistapp /workflow/sdpmessagingsca-ui-worklist /soa/composer /soa-infra/deployer /soa-infra/events/edn-db-log /soa-infra/cluster/info #"Policy using Basic Authn Scheme" is the name of the policy #"Basic Over LDAP" is the authentication scheme configured for this #policy # Note that the name of the policy and the scheme name in the URIs file # is tab-separated. In other words, there must be a tab between # "Basic Authn Scheme" and "OraDefaultBasicAuthNScheme" below. Policy using Basic Authn Scheme OraDefaultBasicAuthNScheme /inspection.wsil ######################################### public_uris ######################################### /soa-infra/services /soa-infra/directWSDL
Note:
In Oracle Access Manager 10g, all resources under a URL prefix are protected by the default rules of a policy domain unless more specific rules are applied to them through policies. For details on the different patterns you can use if you need more specialized protection patterns, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Access Manager with Oracle Security Token Service.
The OAM Configuration Tool resides in the ORACLE_COMMON_HOME
/modules/oracle.oamprovider_11.1.1/
directory (ORACLE_COMMON_HOME
depends on the machine where you are running the configuration tool). The tool can be run from any machine with the required installation files. In this case, you run it from WCCHOST1. Run the OAM Configuration Tool for Oracle Access Manager 10g registration as follows (all on a single command line):
MW_HOME/jrockit_160_version/bin/java -jar oamcfgtool.jar mode=CREATE app_domain="ECM_EDG" uris_file="full_path_to_file_containing_uri_definitions" app_agent_password=password_to_be_provisioned_for_App_Agent ldap_host=OID.MYCOMPANY.COM ldap_port=389 ldap_userdn="cn=orcladmin" ldap_userpassword=Password_of_LDAP_admin_user oam_aaa_host=OAMHOST1 oam_aaa_port=OAMPORT1
Note:
The examples documented in this guide use Oracle JRockit. Any certified version of Java can be used for this procedure and is fully supported unless otherwise noted.
If your command ran successfully, you should see the following output:
Date,Time oracle.security.oam.oamcfg.OAMCfgGlobalConfigHandler constructGlobalConfig INFO: Processed input parameters May 9, 2011 5:09:40 AM oracle.security.oam.oamcfg.OAMCfgGlobalConfigHandler constructGlobalConfig INFO: Initialized Global Configuration Date,Time oracle.security.oam.oamcfg.create.impl.OAMCfgConfigCreator doCreate INFO: Successfully completed the Create operation.

For applications invoked by Oracle WebCenter Content and Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging to comply with Oracle Access Manager logout guidelines (in particular, applications that invoke a logout through /adfAuthentication?logout=true&end_url=some_URI
), integration with an Oracle Access Manager 10g environment requires additional configuration on the WebGate to handle the end_url. Without this additional configuration, you are logged out, but not redirected to the end URL because Oracle Access Manager 10g WebGate does not process end_url. For information about configuration procedures, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Application Security Guide.
When integrating Oracle WebCenter Content with Oracle Access Manager 10g, you must add the URL /oamsso/logout.html
to the logout URL setting for the Access Gate for the single sign-on logout to work properly. For more information, see "Configuring a Single Sign-On Logout URL" and "AccessGate Configuration Parameters" in the Oracle Access Manager Access Administration Guide.
To verify successful creation of the policy domain and AccessGate, you need to verify the policy domain and then the AccessGate configuration.
Verify the policy domain in Oracle Access Manager.
To verify the policy domain:
Log in to Oracle Access Manager:
http://OAMADMINHOST:port/access/oblix/
Click Policy Manager.
Click the My Policy Domains link on the left. You will see a list of all policy domains, which includes the domain you just created. It will have the suffix _PD (for example, ECM_EDG_PD). In the third column (URL prefixes), you will also see the URIs you specified during the creation of this domain).
Click the link to the policy domain you just created to go to the General area of this domain.
Open the Resources tab and you will see the URIs you specified. You can also click other tabs to view other settings.
Verify the AccessGate configuration in Oracle Access Manager.
To verify the AccessGate configuration:
Click the Access System Console link on the top right-hand side (this acts like a toggle; after you click it, it becomes the Policy Manager link).
Open the Access System Configuration tab.
Click the AccessGate Configuration link on the left.
Enter ECM_EDG
as the search criterion (or any other substring you may have used as the app_domain
name in Section 18.3.3.2, "Running the OAM Configuration Tool"), and click Go.
Once the access gate for the domain you just created shows up (this will have the suffix _AG (for example, ECM_EDG_AG), click it, and you will see the details of the access gate you just created.
Verify the assignment of the cookieless basic authorization scheme in Oracle Access Manager.
To verify that the cookieless basic authorization scheme has been properly assigned:
Log in to Oracle Access Manager:
http://OAMADMINHOST:port/access/oblix/
Click Policy Manager.
Click the My Policy Domains link on the left. You will see a list of all policy domains that have been created.
Click ECM_EDG.
Open the Policies tab and then click Policy using Basic Authn Scheme.
Open the General section.
The inspection.wsil
resource should be listed.
Open the Authentication Rule section.
The OraDefaultBasicAuthNScheme

webhost1.mydomain.com:7777 webhost2.mydomain.com:7777 wcchost1.mycompany.com:16200 wcchost2.mycompany.com:16200 adminvhn.mycompany.com:7001 wcchost1vhn1.mycompany.com:8001 wcchost1vhn2.mycompany.com:16000 wcchost1vhn3.mycompany.com:16400 wcchost2vhn1.mycompany.com:8001 wcchost2vhn2.mycompany.com:16000 wcchost2vhn3.mycompany.com:16400 admin.mycompany.com:80 wcc.mycompany.com:443 wccinternal.mycompany.com:80 sso.mycompany.com:7779 [WebGate access with Oracle Oracle Identity Management port]
Select the Update Cache checkbox, and then click Save.
A message box with the following message is displayed: Updating the cache at this point will flush all the caches in the system. Are you sure?
Click OK to finish saving the configuration changes.
Verify the changes on the Host Identifier Details page.
The OAM Configuration Tool populates the Preferred_HTTP_Host
and hostname
attributes for the WebGate profile that is created with the value of the app_domain
parameter. Both these attributes must be updated with the proper values for the configuration to work correctly.
To update the WebGate profile created by the OAM Configuration Tool:
Navigate to the Access System Console by specifying the following URL in your web browser:
http://host_name:port/access/oblix
where host_name
refers to the host where the WebPass Oracle HTTP Server instance is running and port
refers to the HTTP port of the Oracle HTTP Server instance.

WebGate needs to be installed on both WEBHOST1 and WEBHOST2 to secure Oracle Web Tier.
Note:
There is a known issue with the Oracle Access Manager installer that sometimes manifests as a hang at install time on Linux. This is a third-party issue caused by InstallShield. To work around this issue, follow these steps:
Copy and paste the following in the shell where you start the installer:
cd /tmp mkdir bin.$$ cd bin.$$ cat > mount <<EOF #! /bin/sh exec /bin/true EOF chmod 755 mount export PATH=`pwd`:$PATH
Run the installation.
When the installer is finished running, clean the temporary directory using this command:
rm -r /tmp/bin.$$
To install and configure WebGate:
Launch the WebGate installer (see Section 2.4, "Software Components to Install," for information on where to obtain it) using the following command on WEBHOSTn:
./Oracle_Access_Manager10_1_4_3_0_linux_OHS11g_WebGate –gui
In the Welcome screen, click Next.

IP address validation determines if a client's IP address is the same as the IP address stored in the ObSSOCookie
cookie generated for single sign-on. IP address validation can cause issues in systems using load-balancer devices configured to perform IP address termination or when the authenticating Webgate is front-ended by a different load-balancing router (LBR) or proxy than the one front-ending the enterprise deployment.
To make sure your enterprise deployment LBR or proxy is not validated in these cases:
Open the Access System Console and log in as an administrator at the following URL:
http://host_name:port/access/oblix
where host_name
refers to the host where the WebPass Oracle HTTP Server instance is running and port
refers to the HTTP port of the Oracle HTTP Server instance.
On the Access System main page, click the Access System Console link.
On the Access System Console main page, click Access System Configuration, and then click the Access Gate Configuration link on the left to display the AccessGates Search page.
Enter the appropriate search criteria, and click Go to display a list of access gates.
Select the access gate created by the OAM Configuration Tool.
Click Modify at the bottom of the page.
In the IPValidationException field, enter the IP address of the load balancer or proxy front-ending the enterprise deployment.
Note:
The load balancer host name is the one that was used to configure the virtual servers in Section 3.3, "Load Balancers."
Click Save at the bottom of the page.
This section is based on the assumption that you have already set up the LDAP authentication provider by following the steps in Section 10.3.2, "Creating the LDAP Authentication Provider." If you have not already created the LDAP authentication provider, do it before continuing with this section.
This section covers the following topics:
To be safe, first back up the relevant configuration files:
ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/domain_name/config/config.xml ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/config/fmwconfig/jps-config.xml ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name/aserver/domain_name/config/fmwconfig/ system-jazn-data.xml
Also back up the boot.properties
file for the Administration Server.
Set up an Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider in the WebLogic Server Administration Console.
To set up the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider:
Log in to the WebLogic Server Administration Console, if not already logged in.
Click Lock & Edit.
Navigate to SecurityRealms, then the default realm name, and then Providers.
Click New and select OAMIdentityAsserter from the dropdown menu.
Name the asserter (for example, OAM ID Asserter
) and click OK.
Click the newly added asserter to see the configuration screen for the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider.
Set the control flag to REQUIRED
and click Save.
Open the Provider Specific tab to configure the following required settings:
Primary Access Server: provide Oracle Access Manager server endpoint information in host:port format.
AccessGate Name: name of the AccessGate (for example, ECM_EDG_AG
).
AccessGate Password: password for the AccessGate (optional).
Save the settings.
Reorder the Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider, the Oracle Internet Directory authentication provider, and the default authentication provider by ensuring that the control flag for each provider is set as follows:
Oracle Access Manager identity assertion provider: REQUIRED
Oracle Internet Directory LDAP authentication provider: SUFFICIENT
DefaultAuthenticator
: SUFFICIENT
DefaultIdentityAsserter
After reordering, save the settings, activate the changes, and restart all servers. Stop the Administration Server with the nmKill
command, or with the Administration Console, and then starting it with the nmStart
command, as described in Section 11.3, "Restarting the Administration Server." Before the restart, stop all Managed Servers in the domain through the Administration Console, and then start them after the restart. Log in to the Administration Console using the credentials for the weblogic_ecm
user.
Note:
Do not forget to create a new credential for the new user. See Section 14.5.14, "Configuring a BPEL CSF Credential" for further details. (This book uses the weblogic_ecm
user as an example for SSO.)
Validate single sign-on through the front end (using the SSO user name and password):
http://admin.mycompany.com/console
http://admin.mycompany.com/em
http://wcc.mycompany.com/cs
http://wcc.mycompany.com/imaging
https://wcc.mycompany.com/dc-console
After you have verified that the extended domain is working, back up the installation. This is a quick backup for the express purpose of immediate restore in case of problems in the further steps. The backup destination is the local disk. This backup can be discarded once the enterprise deployment setup is complete. At that point, the regular deployment-specific backup and recovery process can be initiated. The Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide provides further details. For information about describing the Oracle HTTP Server data that must be backed up and restored, see the "Backup and Recovery Recommendations for Oracle HTTP Server" section in this guide. For information on how to recover components, see the "Recovery of Components" and "Recovery After Loss of Component" sections in the guide. For recommendations specific to recovering from the loss of a host, see the "Recovering Oracle HTTP Server to a Different Host" section in the guide. For information about database backup, see the Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide.
To back up the installation at this point:
Back up Oracle Web Tier:
Shut down the instance using opmnctl
:
ORACLE_BASE/admin/instance_name/bin/opmnctl stopall
Back up the Middleware home on Oracle Web Tier using the following command (as root):
tar -cvpf BACKUP_LOCATION/web.tar $MW_HOME
Back up the Instance Home on Oracle Web Tier using the following command (as root):
tar -cvpf BACKUP_LOCATION/web_instance.tar $ORACLE_INSTANCE
Start the instance using opmnctl
:
ORACLE_BASE/admin/instance_name/bin/opmnctl startall
Back up the AdminServer domain directory on WCCHOST1. Perform a backup to save your domain configuration. The configuration files all exist under the ORACLE_BASE
/ admin/
domain_name
/
directory.
tar -cvpf edgdomainback.tar ORACLE_BASE/admin/domain_name
