  To set the soa.oracle.home environment variable:

  1. On the machine on which Financial Close Management is installed, shut down all the managed servers.

  2. Make a backup copy of setDomainEnv.cmd|.sh, which is in MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/domains/bin.

  3. Edit setDomainEnv.cmd|.sh and add the following line before if "%JAVA_VENDOR%.... Leave a blank line before and after the added text:

    set SOA_ORACLE_HOME=InstallationLocLocation\Oracle_SOA1

    For example: set SOA_ORACLE_HOME=C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_SOA1

  4. Add the following option to the EXTRA_JAVA_PROPERTIES variable. 

    -Dsoa.oracle.home=%SOA_ORACLE_HOME%
