So far - our SSL certificates are renewed every 180. The keystores, CSR are all new each time. I've written batch files to take input for the timing of the csr and naming conventions. We wrote a runbook so any of our admins (theres only me and I'm forgetful) - can do it without having to re-remember what we did.

Thanks! You may appreciate the irony. The cmckinnon in the path - is a an old co-worker of mine. I recall us having this issue once upon a time. I've followed the directions but to still no avail. I've added the RDA to my ticket with Support. Fingers crossed.

Okay - thank you all for your comments & guidance. After setting the understanding that the patch isn't the upgrade path - reading the instructions for the correct files - I'm updated & then patched to the latest. Thanks for your patience! I'm the lone guy in the shop that runs the boxes with very little time.

I think I was mistakenly under the impression that I could "upgrade" via SPB. I am/was/are trying to go from 6.4.0.0.230715 to whatever is the latest, with the least amount of pain. And so far, I'm finding more pain than gain.

Suresh, We've had this similar issue - and two things to check. Ensure that your SSL Certificate is properly signed. We had self-signed through our domain and they weren't acceptable. Needed to be from a proper CA. Also - check the alias' are included into the java keystore as well. (That pesky other keystore for the trust…

@SteveF-Oracle - Your profile appears to be set private - I'm unable to click on you to send a message.

That worked. So - here's the full steps in layman's terms - as I'm working through it. Backup the existing [ORACLE_HOME], db for schema. Download files (V983368-01 (fmw 12.2.1.4), V1048326-01, OAS 2025). Create new [ORACLE_HOME] Install both the above files to [ORACLE_HOME] new. Run UA readiness against old [ORACLE_HOME]…

Hi Steve - My issue was that I was trying to apply the SPB using SPBAT - and it failed the version check. I may have my steps out of order.

Thanks both - for the notes here: https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/install-config-oas/installing-product-software.html#GUID-94C32691-7E21-48EC-BB13-8F75820AB8F4 I take it to mean literally after installing the binaries from OAS files - pre database upgrade, schema and reconfiguration.. Applying…

We're on-prem. Using MS SQL server - we have reporting that periodically checks open running queries. First threshold alerts and the second terminates. It is a process running outside OAS stack.

Magnificent. Thank you. That was what I'd thought, but for the life of me could not find that on the page correctly. I appreciate the note regarding Mar'2025. I'll re-try my update/install of 2024 first. The last time I'd tried, it was a very bumpy road.

Steve - what is the next available CPU/SPB for 35608828;OAS STACK PATCH BUNDLE 6.4.0.0.230715 (Patch 35607281)? Trying to utilize the documentation for DOC 2832967.2 - but it routes me directly to v OAS_SPB_7.0.0.0.250114 Any thoughts?

That's really unfortunate - there are some tremendous visualizations in DV that would be great in dashboards. Are there notes anywhere to fully turn town DV? Documentation hasn't ever proven to be Oracle's strong-suit.

Thanks for this commentary @Gianni Ceresa - do you know if this has been refreshed in the 16 months since original comment? Looking to provide some more useful fine-grain permissions for newly created roles and enhanced reporting with our DV - since it's un-usable at the moment.

Is there anything resembling an administration guide for the permissions and roles available for securing DV application?

Thank you both - after downloading the latest versions from Oracle - nothing installed successfully. I've open an SR and will hope to get some further insights.

This part " In BOTH scenarios, you install a new ORACLE_HOME with the new binaries, so … " was what wasn't clear in the documentation. Thank you for that clarity. Upgrades aren't something we do often enough.

Thank you both. This document is helpful, as is the tip for the domain home. We've always just left the folders in their stock locations.

I was successful once moved to a path with no spaces. on Windows - Java unpacking didn't work. Didn't recognize as a valid jar. 7-Zip worked beautifully.

Download Extract Navigate to spbat path - run pre-check. Instant error.Does not like folders with spaces.
