- Go to the Oracle Internet Application Server site. Click on the Downloads tab and all available Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.x) Downloads will be displayed.
- Scroll down until you reach the Oracle Containers for J2EE section and click on Pure Java. The Oracle Application Server 10g Software Downloads will be displayed.
- Accept the License Agreement, then click on the Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (OC4J) link. The download of the oc4j_extended_101350.zip file will start. Save this zip file on your workstation.
- In your ${user.home} directory, create the directories oc4j/10.1.3.5.0 and unzip the oc4j_extended_101350.zip file to the ${user.home}/oc4j/10.3.5.0 directory. Create a system environmental variable ORACLE_HOME and set it's value to ${user.home}/oc4j/10.3.5.0.
For example: if ${user.home}=/users/rstone, then ORACLE_HOME=/user/rstone/oc4j/10.1.3.5.0
You can actually unzip to any directory you desire. The only requirement is that all directory names cannot contain any white space.
- Edit the file ${ORACLE_HOME}/j2ee/home/config/system-application.xml and change:
| Code Block |

<import-shared-library name="oracle.toplink">
|
to: | Code Block |
|---|
<!--import-shared-library name="oracle.toplink"-->
|
- We need to add a datasource so that the applications can pull data from the database. Edit ${ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home/config/data-sources.xml to add a datasource. Here's an example of adding a MITSIS datasource:
| Code Block |
|---|
<data-source
class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
name="OracleDS2"
location="jdbc/MitsisDS"
xa-location="jdbc/xa/StargateXADS-unused"
ejb-location="jdbc/OracleDS-unused"
connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
username=""
password=""
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@//earth-vault-2.mit.edu:1523/sundev2"
inactivity-timeout="30"
/>
|
where obviously you'll add your username and password.

In OC4J 10.1.3 I actually had to comment out this line in \[j2ee.home\]/config/system-application.xml like so |
...
to get Hibernate to work correctly. Something to to with antlr packages conflicting with OC4J's.
In order to use Spring 3.0 with OC4J 10.1.3, you'll need to swap out the default XML parser in OC4J with something more modern. xercesImpl.jar and xml-apis.jar work fine. To swap the parser out, you need to create a new shared library in the OC4J enterprise manager and then edit the system-application.xml file to use your new shared library instead of the Oracle XML parser.
...
Once you save these files and restart OC4J, you will be using the new XML parser.
By default, some run time errors that you'll see when testing web apps in OC4J are not too helpful. You can coax OC4J into giving you more information about certain errors by these changes in global-web-application.xml :
...
With these settings, you should get more meaningful messages in your browser when you run into certain errors (JSP syntax errors for example).
