Infrastructure at your Service
In a previous blog (click here), I presented a common issue that might occur during the installation of some DARs and how to handle that with what Documentum provides but there are some limitations to that. Indeed the script repositoryPatch.sh is pretty good (except the small bug explained in the other blog) but its execution is limited to only one docbase and it is pretty boring to always put the full path of the DARs…
During a recent project at one of our customers, we often saw the message “Unexpected errors occurred while installing DARs”. In our case, this message happened when installing, migrating or upgrading a docbase on an already existing Content Server. We never saw this message during the first initial phase of installation of our repositories but we started to see it some months later with the first migration/upgrade. In this blog I will show you where…
As described in my last post, GoldenGate Studio requires the monitor agent on each GoldenGate instance. The goal of this agent is to allow GoldenGate Studio to interact with GoldenGate, for example, to deploy a new solution. So lets start with the installation of the agent. Download The first step is to download the monitor agent (Oracle GoldenGate Monitor). It is available here. Installation The second step is to install the product. After you have…
As you may certainly know, the last release candidate of SQL Server 2016 (RC3) has been released by Microsoft a couple of days ago. You may find the announcement here. As usual, after downloading the binaries from my msdn subscription, I performed a first fresh installation of the underlying operating system (Windows Server 2016 TP4) by using my preferred set of automated scripts. I’m sure you are convinced that automating some installation steps may avoid…
As an Alfresco developer/administrator, you probably already made a few mistakes in your DEV environment while trying to add new features, a custom model or something like that. The result of that mistake might be a corrupted Database or Content Store. Yes I know it’s hard to recognize it! But then what can be done to solve the issue and restore an usable installation? Well if you don’t have a backup or don’t want to…
Some days ago EnterpriseDB released EDB Postgres Advanced Server 9.5. As usual this release contains all new features that have been introduced with PostgreSQL 9.5 plus the additions that are documented in the release notes. Some time ago I blogged on how to install the 9.4 release. In this post I want to check if anything changed in the installation process. Installing Postgres Advanced server usually is just clicking next,next,next and you’re done if you…
What to do if you get the above error when you try to install Oracle SE2 (did not test if the same issue is there with EE, but probably it is) in silent mode?: ./runInstaller oracle.install.option=INSTALL_DB_SWONLY \ ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle/ \ ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_2_4/ \ UNIX_GROUP_NAME=oinstall \ oracle.install.db.DBA_GROUP=dba \ oracle.install.db.OPER_GROUP=dba \ oracle.install.db.BACKUPDBA_GROUP=dba \ oracle.install.db.DGDBA_GROUP=dba \ oracle.install.db.KMDBA_GROUP=dba \ FROM_LOCATION=../stage/products.xml \ INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/ \ SELECTED_LANGUAGES=en \ oracle.install.db.InstallEdition=SE2 \ DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true -silent -ignoreSysPrereqs -ignorePrereq -waitForCompletion You already checked my oracle support and verified that…
In the previous blog, I described How to install and manage a Kerberos Server but that’s useless if there are no clients and if no application have been kerberized! That’s why in this blog I will explain in the first part how to install a kerberos client in linux. The second part will be dedicated to the configuration of a browser to use Kerberos tickets and the last part will explain how to configure a…
For some time now, I have been working on how to set up a Single Sign-On (SSO) solution in my company. As a big fan of Open Source solutions, I have obviously proposed the implementation of a solution based on Kerberos. What I mean by that is a solution based on the true Kerberos, i. e. MIT Kerberos. Indeed, Kerberos was originally a research project at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology (MIT) in the early…
Among the Oracle 12c new features there is the addition of an uninstall tool encapsulated in the Oracle database binaries. There is no more the necessity to download the deinstallation tool for Oracle products (deinstall utility). In this blog I propose an overview of this tool and its functionnalities.
