  • Download the Java Cryptography Extension file for Java 8.
  • Access to an instance of OCI IAM, rights to download the E-Business Suite Asserter from the console, and rights to register a confidential application.
  • Get access to an instance of Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i (11.5.10) or Release 12 (12.1.3, 12.2.4, or greater), with the latest patch applied.
  • Get access to a separate instance of Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.1.3 and 12.2) using the Java SE Development Kit 8 or Java EE 8.
  • In the Oracle WebLogic Server 12c, create a managed server named EBSAsserter_server to deploy the E-Business Suite Asserter Java application.
  • Create a working directory in EBS Asserter's WebLogic Server and Oracle EBS Server. For example, /opt/ebssdk.
