OBIEE 12c - How to configure a new Java Jome?

Question

Hi everyone,  Please let me know if I have the wrong thread for this questions.

I am very new to OBIEE 12.  I installed it a few months ago and it is currently used for development only.  Problem is, I need to patch it and I can't get it back up after I applied the JAVA PATCH.  Hoping someone can tell me the process changing the JAVA home for an OBIEE 12C install.

Here is where I am: (This is a widows 2012 box and all OBIEE and repository are together on same server. )

* Installed new JAVA HOME 8u151 and renamed the old JAVA HOME 
* OBIEE will not restart.
* Added new environment variable JAVA_HOME  better but still OBIEE will not start
* Updated E:\oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\oracle_common\common\bin\commBaseEnv   to new home but still  OBIEE will not start.

Can anyone tell me what other files need to be changed?

Thank You!!

Thank You Gianni!

I feel ridiculous,  I should have found that document on my own - I sure spent enough time looking for it.

For anyone else patching Java, I also had to edit the JAVA_HOME here:  E:\oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\oracle_common\common\bin\commBaseEnv.cmd

Thanks again!!
