OMB PLUS - Problem passing Unix environment variables to OMBPlus

666880Oct 23 2008 — edited Sep 13 2009
Due to a requirement to encapsulate deployment of OWB applications, we currently start OMBPlus.sh from our own wrapper ksh script (deploy.ksh) in order to get the new / changed application into the target control center etc.
We now have a new requirement that means we need to pass the content of the Unix environment across to OMBPlus.sh (and from thence into our deployment tcl scripts).

No problem, if you believe the tcl documentation. The entire Unix environement gets dumped into a hash array called 'env', so you can get the variable's value out just by saying $env(unix_valraible).
Sounds great, it should work a treat.

Except OMBPlus only silghtly resembles tclsh.
The 'env' that gets into OMBPlus bears practically no resemblance to the 'env' that existed before OMBPlus.sh got invoked.

Does anyone have:
a decent explanation for why the env gets scrambled (and how to avoid it) ?
or an alternative method of getting the Unix environment varaible values into OMBPlus ?
Please do not propose passing them all on the command line because (would you beleive it) the values are database passwords !

i am not looking for generic installation steps.

My installation stuck during configuration stuck and remains there at 32%, it is not moving after that.

So its stuck. i wanted to know any specific reason why it is stuck.

That's why i have posted the installation log.

Installed JDK, then installed weblogic and ran RCU. Then did software only install and tried configuring bi_server1. Still the same problem.

M.bro

if possible take screen shot and post it and also tell installation path and setup path.

More than 90% of the problems in OBIEE installation are just because of IP address. You can follow the steps in a link I have mentioned above.

I went through you error log, don't worry. You can rely on that link, try it. But before proceeding, make sure that you format your system to make a fresh install of OBIEE. ;-)
