Introduction

This post focuses on the creation, configuration and tuning of an initial Forms & Reports 12.2.1.2.0 Domain on the OEL 7.2 Server.

The WebLogic Server is a necessary requirement, and must already be installed. For instruction how to install the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.2 please refer to my previous post: WebLogic Server 12.2.1.2.0: Installation on the Linux OEL 7: step by step instruction

The following tasks will be implemented:

• Preparing the Operating System for the installation of the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.2, Installation JDK 1.8 and the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.2:
• Creating of database schemas
• Installing and Configuring a Forms & Reports Domain
• Post-Installation Tasks:
  • Configuring of components
  • Creating of Start & Stop scripts for the automatic start/stop of components
• Tuning and Troubleshooting

The Domain will be created on the one OEL 7.2 server: host03.example.com (IP 192.168.75.35)

Start the standalone reports server and save the NodeManager Password:

cd /u01/app/oracle/user_projects/domains/forms_domain/bin

./startComponent.sh my_repsrv storeUserConfig

You will be prompted to try the nodemanager user password:

Please enter Node Manager password: xxx

Problem: by starting of the reports server we received the error message:

Error: Error occurred while performing nmStart : Error Starting server my_repsrv : Received error message from Node Manager Server: [Server start command for ReportsServerComponent server ‚my_repsrv‘ failed due to: [Server failed to start up but Node Manager was not aware of the reason]. Please check Node Manager log and/or server ‚my_repsrv‘ log for detailed information.]. Please check Node Manager log for details.

The Logfile my_repsrv.out contains the following messages:

/u01/app/oracle/product/FMW/Oracle_Home/bin/rwserver: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

The Solution is in the MOS Note „Reports Builder / Server Fails to Start in 12c With “ libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory“ Only on Linux 7 (Doc ID 2073755.1)“described:

Changes:

New installation on Linux OEL7 or RedHat7.

Cause:

This version of the motif library (libXm.so.3) is not available on OEL7 or RedHat7.

Solution:

The workaround is to create a symbolic link between the new motif library and the old one.

ln -s /usr/lib64/libXm.so.4.0.4 /usr/lib64/libXm.so.3

Try as root:

[root@host03 ~]# ln -s /usr/lib64/libXm.so.4.0.4 /usr/lib64/libXm.so.3

Restart all Components: NodeManager, AdminServer, Managed Server WLS_FORMS, Managed Server WLS_REPORTS

Start the reports server as oracle:

cd /u01/app/oracle/user_projects/domains/forms_domain/bin
./startComponent.sh my_repsrv storeUserConfig

Output:

Successfully Connected to Node Manager.
Starting server my_repsrv ...

Successfully started server my_repsrv ...
Successfully disconnected from Node Manager.

Check the Reports Server (Browser):

http://host03.example.com:9002/reports/rwservlet/showenv?server=my_repsrv

Configuring Forms and Reports for the using HTTP Server

The HTTP Server must be started once, for the directories associated with „ohs1“ instance to be created

Start OHS via NodeManager and WLST

Tuning and Troubleshooting Oracle Forms and Reports

Tuning JVM

We will customize the settings for the Java Heap size and for WebLogic Server Start parameters by the creating the File setUserOverrrides.sh.

We will tune the Java heap size for the Admin Server and for each Managed Server.

We will set some WebLogic Server start Parameter:

• -Dweblogic.MaxMessageSize=300000000    # increase the MessageSize
• -Dweblogic.threadpool.MinPoolSize=1024    # Tuning the WebLogic ThreadPool

For more information about the customizing of Java settings please refer to my article How to customize Java Virtual Machine Settings in Oracle WebLogic Server 12 on OS Linux / UNIX

Create file UserOverrides.sh:

cd /u01/app/oracle/user_projects/domains/forms_domain/bin

cat setUserOverrides.sh (an Example):

#!/bin/bash

echo "Setting from UserOverrides.sh"
# global settinga (for all servers)s
export JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Dweblogic.MaxMessageSize=300000000"
export USER_MEM_ARGS="-Xms256m -Xmx512m"

# customer settings for each server
if [ "${SERVER_NAME}" = "AdminServer" ]
then
  echo "Customizing USER_MEM_ARGS for SERVER_NAME ${SERVER_NAME}"
  export USER_MEM_ARGS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1536m"
fi

if [ "${SERVER_NAME}" = "WLS_FORMS" ]
then
  echo "Customizing USER_MEM_ARGS for SERVER_NAME ${SERVER_NAME}"
  export USER_MEM_ARGS="-Xms2g -Xmx2g -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:NewSize=1g"
  export JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.awt.headless=true"
fi

if [ "${SERVER_NAME}" = "WLS_REPORTS" ]
then
  echo "Customizing USER_MEM_ARGS for SERVER_NAME ${SERVER_NAME}"
  export USER_MEM_ARGS="-Xms2g -Xmx2g -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:NewSize=1g"
  export JAVA_OPTIONS="$JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.awt.headless=true"
fi

echo "End setting from UserOverrides.sh"
