If users disable the 8.3 file name creation feature on an NTFS partition under Windows NT 4.0, any program using the Windows GetShortPathName() function receives an error.
Workaround: Do not disable the 8.3 file name creation feature.
An Oracle Internet Directory Delegated Administration Services error occurs on Simplified Chinese locale.
Workaround:
Uncomment the following line from ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf \httpd.conf:
include "ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf\mod_osso.conf"
Restart the Http Server through Oracle Enterprise Manager.
The Oracle Internet Directory server may not be able to validate users after the single box installation because the maximum number of connections may have been exceeded. This may be caused because the applications connecting to Oracle Internet Directory server are not releasing the connections.
Workaround 1:
Restart Oracle Internet Directory with two server processes modes. This can handle twice the amount of connections.
% oidmon connect=connect_string start % oidctl connect=connect_string server=oidldapd instance=1 flags="server=2" start
Stop all opmn and Oracle Internet Directory processes.
Start the opmn processes.
Workaround 2:
If Workaround 1 above does not resolve the problem, then apply the following patches:
iAS SSO patch, Bug 2673497 on top of IAS 9.0.2
RDBMS JDBC patch, Bug 2931090 on top of RDBMS 9.0.1.4.5
iAS Oracle Internet Directory patch, Bug 2876095 on top of iAS 9.0.2.3
The Unlock RTC Repository Schemas tool hangs because the RTC schema scripts cannot connect to the database.
Workaround:
End the sqlplus process from the Windows Task Manager.
Retry the configuration assistant from Oracle Universal Installer.
NETCA fails for directory service registration when the middle tier is configured on Traditional Chinese locale.
When running the Oracle Calendar Web Client server, an OracleAS Web Cache server error occurs.
When running the database configuration assistant (DBCA) as a standalone, the database is not being registered.
Workaround: Register the database using a user DN that is a member of the Oracle Directory Manager OracleDBCreators group, or the cn=orcladmin user DN.
The Infrastructure Use Phase 2 tool may hang during the Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 middle tier installation.
Workaround:
Close the CMD window.
Retry the Infrastructure Use Phase 2 tool.
If you are manually applying Oracle9i (9.0.1.4.0) patch set 5, do not perform step 4 of the patch installation instructions.
After upgrading from Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 to Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2, any partner applications registered with Single Sign-On must be manually re-registered.

When Active EM is upgraded from an Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 ORACLE_HOME to an Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 ORACLE_HOME, the following are not set in Services:
Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 EM instance = Manual
Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 EM instance = Automatic
Workaround:
Perform the following steps only if the host contains all of the following:
Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 middle tier
Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 middle tier ORACLE_HOME is the active Oracle Enterprise Manager ORACLE_HOME
Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 middle tier has been upgraded through the ocsua.sh script, changing the active EM to an Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 middle tier
From the Start Menu, select Settings > Control Panel.
Select Administrative Tools.
Double-click Services.
Set the EM Service from Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 ORACLE_HOME to Manual:
On Window 2000 & Windows XP:
Right click Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 EM Website Service.
Click Properties.
Set Startup Type to Manual.
Click Ok.
On Windows NT
Select Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 EM Website Service > Startup.
Set Startup Type to Manual.
Click Ok.
Set the EM Service from Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 ORACLE_HOME to Automatic:
On Windows 2000 and Windows XP:

Click Properties.
Change the Startup Type to Automatic.
Click Ok.
On Windows NT:
Select Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 1 EM Website Service > Startup.
Set Startup Type to Automatic.
Click Ok.
Close the Services window.
During the Oracle Collaboration Suite middle tier installation, the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) enables users to decide whether or not to configure Oracle9iAS Portal. While Oracle9iAS Portal is an optional component of Oracle Collaboration Suite, failure to configure Oracle9iAS Portal on at least one middle tier results in some broken links in the web client. For example:
Clicking Log on to Oracle Collaboration Suite in the "End-User Login" section of the default welcome page (index.html) results in an error
Clicking the Return to Portal global link in web applications, such as Oracle Email and Oracle Files, results in an error
Oracle Corporation recommends configuring Oracle9iAS Portal on at least one Oracle Collaboration Suite middle tier. Oracle9iAS Portal provides a convenient launch pad for accessing Oracle Collaboration Suite web applications.
|
Note: Configuring Oracle9iAS Portal is a required prerequisite of configuring the Oracle Collaboration Suite Web client. |
If you choose not to configure Oracle9iAS Portal as part of your installation, you can find the direct entry point URLs into various web applications, such as Oracle Email, Oracle Files, and Oracle Calendar in the following file:
%ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\classes\oracle\collabsuite\webclient\resources\ webclient.properties
This section describes Oracle Collaboration Suite Web Client issues.
Workaround: Manually invoke the Web client configuration assistant from the command line as described in the following procedure.
Before invoking the Web client configuration assistant, manually ensure that the Oracle9iAS Portal middle tier has been installed or upgraded, and configured.
Skip Section 1.21.1.1, if the host name and port number for the applications were provided during the Web client installation through Oracle Universal Installer.
Set the entry point URL for each configured component, such as Oracle Email, Oracle Files, and Oracle Calendar, by modifying the webclient.properties file located in the %ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\classes\oracle \collabsuite\webclient\resources directory.
The webclient.properties file contains three URLs for each Oracle Collaboration Suite component:
Help page URL
Application entry point URL
Portlet provider URL
Replace the token for the host name and the port number in all three URLs for each component to be configured.
If you are not upgrading Oracle Calendar to Release 2 (9.0.4.1), perform the following steps to make Oracle Calendar Release 1 (9.0.3) available as a portlet:
Open the webclient.properties file from the %ORACLE_HOME%\webclient \classes\oracle\collabsuite\webclient\resources directory on the Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 (9.0.4.1) middle tier.
Locate the following statement:
calendar=http://%CALENDAR_HOST%:%CALENDAR_PORT%/ocas-bin/ocas.fcgi?sub=web
Replace the preceding statement with the following:
calendar=http://%CALENDAR_HOST%:%CALENDAR_PORT%/fcgi-bin/owc /lexacal.fcgi?go=login
Locate the following statement:
calendar.provider=http://%WEBCLIENT_HOST%:%WEBCLIENT_PORT%/webclient- calendar/servlet/soaprouter
Replace the preceding statement with the following:
calendar.provider= http://%WIRELESS_HOST%:%WIRELESS_PORT%/marconi /servlet/soaprouter
Enter the following command:
%ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\bin\webclient_installer.bat Oracle9iAS_Portal_user_name Oracle9iAS_Portal_user_password -complete
If you know the Oracle9iAS Portal schema name, password, and connect string information, you can invoke the configuration assistant, as follows:
%ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\bin\webclient_installer.bat Oracle9iAS_Portal_user_name Oracle9iAS_Portal_user_password -complete -s schema -p password -c connect_string
Where:
schema: The Oracle database account for Oracle9iAS Portal
password: The Oracle9iAS Portal account password
connect_string: The connect string to the database instance where the Oracle9iAS Portal repository is installed; specified as host_name:port:SID
After installing the Oracle Files middle tier, the Oracle Files domain is not started by default. Because of this, in some cases, the Web Client configuration assistant is unable to contact the Files portlet during Web Client configuration, and the automatic registration of the Files portlet will fail.
If Oracle Files and the Web Client are configured on different hosts, make sure to start the Oracle Files domain before you configure the Web Client.
|
See Also: The Oracle Files configuration chapter of the Oracle Collaboration Suite Installation and Configuration Guide for more information |
If Oracle Files and the Web Client are configured on the same host in the same installer session, automatic registration of the Oracle Files portlet will fail. In this case:
Start the Oracle Files domain.
|
See Also: The Oracle Files configuration chapter of the Oracle Collaboration Suite Installation and Configuration Guide for more information |
Verify that the Oracle Files-related URLs are correctly set in the %ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\classes\oracle\collabsuite\webclient \resources\webclient.properties file.
Re-run the Web Client configuration assistant from the command line:
%ORACLE_HOME%\webclient\bin\webclient_installer.bat
During installation, if you choose No in the Oracle Calendar Master Node screen, the installation will not continue. You must choose Yes and then, if desired, remove the [CLUSTER] section from the server's unison.ini file in order to make this node a slave node. You will then need to connect this node to a master node.

Oracle Enterprise Manager for Oracle Email is not invoked during the installation of Oracle Collaboration Suite Release 2 infrastructure.
Workaround:
Perform the following steps on the infrastructure and the middle tier:
Set ORACLE_HOME.
Run %ORACLE_HOME%\oes\bin\install_umemd.bat script.
Restart Oracle Enterprise Manager.
emctl start
The current release does not permit a photo of a single sign-on user to be uploaded.
If the Create or Edit button of the Resource Access Information screen in the Delegated Administration Service is clicked, previously filled columns are cleared. To correct this problem, enter user columns after setting the user resource information.
This section describes documentation issues in the Oracle Collaboration Suite Installation and Configuration Guide:
The point # 2 should have listener and not listener_es.
Click the Services icon.
In the list of local services, locate the service ending with listener.
If the service is not running, right click the listener name and choose Start or Restart.
To start the listener manually :
%ORACLE_HOME\bin\lsnrctl start
