Import Database Dump
Following steps should be followed for importing database dump. Run Command Prompt with “Run as Administrator”.
Import SMARTESS database dump by using following command in Command Prompt IMPDP SYSTEM/PASSWORD REMAP_SCHEMA=SMARTESS:SMARTESS DIRECTORY=ORACLE_DUMP DUMPFILE=SMARTESS.DMP LOGFILE=SMARTESS_EXPORT.LOG TRANSFORM=oid:n
If this command ask for user name while you have provided correct username and password and you get following error message in importing dump “ORA-28547: connection to server failed, probable Net8 admin error” “UDI-28547: operation generated oracle error”
Then check the sqlnet.ora (exists in same folder in which tnsnames.ora exists). And change the following entry and try. Original entry ------ SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) Modified entry ------ SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE) And then run IMPDP command again and then Connect with SMARTESS user in PLSQL Developer.
Compile Invalid Objects
Compile Invalid Objects is the option available in PLSQL Developer. You just need to start PLSQL Developer and use the “Compile Invalid Objects” in the tools menu to compile invalid objects. See the snapshots.
. We will see the following window when we click “Compile Invalid Objects” in the tools menu. In this window we will see all the objects likes procedures and functions that have errors. See the snapshots.
. We need to compile all the invalid objects and remove the errors to complete the installation.
SMS Configuration
Connect as System or Sys User in Database and issue the following commands.
BEGIN
DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.CREATE_ACL(acl => 'sms.xml', description => 'SMS Gateway ACL', principal => 'SMARTHCM', is_grant => true, privilege => 'connect'); DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.ADD_PRIVILEGE(acl => 'sms.xml', principal => 'SMARTHCM', is_grant => true, privilege => 'resolve'); DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.ASSIGN_ACL(acl => 'sms.xml', host => 'www.jawalbsms.ws'); COMMIT;
END; /
Note:
- Where “host” is the SMS Service Provider
- Where “principal” is the Schema / Database Username where import the database
- To verify the above script is successfully executed
SELECT * FROM dba_network_acl_privileges; SELECT * FROM dba_network_acls; SELECT utl_http.request('www.jawalbsms.ws') FROM dual; (where 'www.jawalbsms.ws' is the service provider URL)
Email Configuration
Connect as Sys User in Database and issue the following commands. GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_HTTP to SMARTHCM; GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_TCP to SMARTHCM; GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_SMTP to SMARTHCM; GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_INADDR to SMARTHCM;
BEGIN
DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.create_acl ( acl => ‘email.xml', description => 'The ACL functionality for Email', principal => 'SMARTHCM', is_grant => TRUE, privilege => 'connect', start_date => SYSTIMESTAMP, end_date => NULL); COMMIT; DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.add_privilege ( acl => ' email.xml', principal => 'SMARTHCM', is_grant => TRUE, privilege => 'connect', position => NULL, start_date => NULL, end_date => NULL); COMMIT; DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.assign_acl ( acl => ‘email.xml', host => '192.16.1.*', lower_port => 25, upper_port => NULL); COMMIT;
END; /
Note:
- Where “host” is the IP of the Email Server (‘*’ means auto find the specific email server)
- Where “principal” is the Schema / Database Username where import the database
- To verify the above script is successfully executed
SELECT * FROM dba_network_acl_privileges; SELECT * FROM dba_network_acls;
Troubleshooting
Following are the solution of possible errors that can occur after installation.
Credential Retrieval Failed
If you get error message "ORA-12638 credential retrieval failed" then check the sqlnet.ora (exists in same folder in which tnsnames.ora exists) and change the following entry and try.
Original entry ------ SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) Modified entry ------ SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE)
Domain Network Firewall
If you found problem to load login page then turn off Domain networks Firewall in Windows Server and try again.
Server Error in Application
If you found following error (see snapshot) then register IIS with the following command on DOS prompt. C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319> aspnet_regiis –i
Retrieving the COM Class Factory Error
If you found following error (see snapshot) then rename the files with name “cryptocme2.dll” and “cryptocme2.sig” to “cryptocme2 .dll” and “cryptocme2 .sig” respectively on the following directory.
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86
