Oracle OIM11gR2 finding the uploaded jar files

Thanks again to my colleagues for pointing this out.

The jar files you uploaded through UploadJars.sh are contained in the OIMHOME_JARS table.  It doesn't appear to use the update date so you will need to download the BLOB and SHA1 it to see if it is exactly what you expected to see.

Here's a hint.  Don't use a version numbered file for Java Tasks jar files.  You basically have to maintain that version number forever.  Better to use the non-version numbered jar file for deployment and use SHA1 to check a version numbered copy against what you have deployed.

Update: you can use a version numbered jar file for Java Tasks jar files.  The only issue is that you will see references to the older versions in the task adapters and you may be confused.  It is not an issue and the class loader will go to the new jar file.

Oracle Diagnostic Logging on Weblogic - Manual Modifications

My last post on this subject involved setup.  If you are a situation where you have classes in packages such as com.mycompany.subject.specificarea and you log into the ODL logging area, you can't easily search on com.  This is why I suggested your class packages are something more like mycompany.subject.specificarea leaving off the com part.

You can search on you mycompany name in the ODL log configuration page, but you won't get the high level box like if you search on com.  And so you have to change the logging level of each individual class, and if the class you are developing has never been called, it will not be in the list.  How to fix?

Start by setting a persistent log level for one of the classes in your package structure.  Don't do it for a second or more, that's overkill.  Next, save and log out of EM.

Next, log into your server and navigate to the domain for your admin server.  Then navigate to config/fmwconfig/servers/oim_server1 (or whatever your server name is) and then edit logging.xml

Find the section which contains your class name that you just modified.  Trim back the name as far back as you desire.  Generally I leave the com.mycompany

Log levels in this file are:

INCIDENT_ERROR:1 (SEVERE+100)

ERROR:1 (SEVERE)
WARNING:1 (WARN)
WARNING:32
NOTIFICATION:1 (INFO)
NOTIFICATION:16 (CONFIG)
NOTIFICATION:32
TRACE:1 (FINE)
TRACE:16 (FINER)
TRACE:32 (FINEST)

Restart the managed server.
