Problem: Problems with 2nd instance of Oracle Apllication server

I am running Oracle Appilcation Server 10.2.0 on my AIX 5.3.3 server.  We are trying to start a second instamce of Applcation server using the following commands:

/bin/su – oracle -c /opt/oracle/product/10gAS/bin/rwserver.sh server=resptest2

When we run the command from the command line it starts.

When we try to run it from a startup script or via CRON we receive the following error:

REP-0001: Unable to find the report builder message file.  Please verify your installation


Solution: Problems with 2nd instance of Oracle Apllication server

Add your second reports server to the AS instance as a “standalone” with the ff steps:
-First, ‘opmnctl stopall’ and ’emctl iasconsole stop’
– $ORACLE_HOME/bin/addNewServerTarget.sh yourreportservername – this command will add entries in opmn and EM files for new report server. Please specify a
meaningful name for yourreportservername.
– $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl reload – this will reload opmn.xml to the memory so that the new report server can b
e seen in the status.
– $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl status – you will see the new report server in the list
– $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startproc ias-component=yourreportservername – this will start the new report server.
– $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl status – you can see the new report server now
– $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop iasconsole
– $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start iasconsole – stopping and starting EM will load the EM with new report server information.
– Login to EM from browser, you can see the new report server up and running. You ma
y start and stop it from the EM itself.
– Run a test report to make sure the new report server is functional: http://server:port/reports/rwservlet?server=yourr
eportservername&report=test.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html
