3.12 Migrating the Fusion Middleware MapViewer Configuration

Oracle Fusion Middleware Mapviewer (MapViewer) is a programmable tool for rendering maps using spatial data managed by Oracle Spatial and Graph or Oracle Locator (also referred to as Locator). MapViewer provides tools that hide the complexity of spatial data queries and cartographic rendering, while providing customizable options for more advanced users. These tools can be deployed in a platform-independent manner and are designed to integrate with map-rendering applications. After migrating the data, you must manually modify the 12c MapViewer configuration file to contain the same contents as the 11g file except the Logging section.

To migrate the MapViewer configuration:

1. Go to the 12c Fusion Middleware MapViewer Administration Console.
2. Create a copy of the default 12c MapViewer configuration file.
3. Overwrite the contents in the copy of the 12c MapViewer configuration file with the content from the mapViewerConfig.xml file from the 11g MapViewer install.
4. Replace the logging section of the MapViewer configuration file copy with the settings from the default 12c MapViewer configuration file.
5. Update the logging settings log levels of the MapViewer configuration file as needed for the 12c.
6. Click Save on the 12c MapViewer Administration Console and then click Restart.
