Unable to access Enterprise Manager after Fusion Middleware Install with OAS 2025 on RHEL9

Hello,

I installed FMW (12.2.1.4) and OAS2025 on RHEL9. I can hit the web page for both the EM and the Console for WLS (http://server:9500/em and http://server:9500/console), and when I login for the first time (as weblogic user), the page just spins and spins and eventually times out. Trying to parse AdminServer.log but it's pretty big. I've tried 3 different browsers, clearing cache, and so on, and get the same result each time.

Incidentally, I'm able log in to the OAS 2025 Application as the weblogic user (http://server:9502/dv) with no issues. Am going to double check firewalls, but am wondering if anyone else has ran into this issue recently? Running on a 100GB disk with 32GB RAM so don't think that is an issue.

I've tried both with and without patching and have the same issue either way. Currently running JDK version 1.8_421.

Thanks in advance for any Insight you might be able to provide. Have never encountered this in previous installations.

Regards,

Chad Williams

Hi,

EM is slow as crazy, there is a simple config you can do to make the login a lot faster (it's about the discovery cache that you saw in the message).

You can find the details on how to do those changes in https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocContentDisplay?id=1423893.1 .

You have various ways to do the same thing, I usually take the emoms.properties file approach (the last one) as I can do it without having to login.

Do what that document says, and your EM login issues will disappear.

I was looking at that same document. I will give it a shot!

Well, I guess it got in eventually. It's giving me this warning.

Login is taking more time than usual. Total login time is 1240406 ms, discovery time is 1229629 ms. Consider enabling discovery cache and/or improving application server performance.

Seeing some info like this in AdminServer.log

Thanks as always for your help @Gianni Ceresa !

I am seeing this error in the log, so will pursue it

Seeing some stuff like this in the AdminServer.log

If EM works for what you need (you shouldn't be spending much time in there anyway), I wouldn't bother much…

If you really want to try to get rid of that, you could try giving more memory to java. MOS should have some documents on how to do that for WebLogic or FMW (/em is not "inside" OAS itself, it'a FMW thing). It's probably a file to edit to add a -Xms and/or -Xmx in the java call.

In addition to java memory tuning (AdminServer in this case for FMWControl (EM)), low file descriptors can cause issues such as java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded.

There is a MOS tuning guide for OAS that can guide you to increase the soft and hard limits.

Thanks for the additional feedback. I do have some additional tuning steps that support provided to me on our last few installs, but for some reason, I just couldn't get into EM at all with this particular install. I spent 3 hours fussing with trying to get into EM to make the bare minimum needed configuration changes and it was very frustrating. I even regretfully did a rebuild to make sure it wasn't a result of patching or Java compatibility. Editing the emoms.properties file was super easy and definitely the way to go here. I probably won't need to do any more tuning as the performance is more than adequate now. Will probably also make this change in FMW for our 2022 environment.
