Manually importing Business Process Framework (BPF) Metastore Manifest (bpf_cm_oracle.xml), when installing the Case Management sample application with BPF 4.1 GA on Oracle, causes BPF Explorer to hang

Troubleshooting


Problem

You create a Metastore manually on Oracle by executing the Step0, Step1, Step2, and Step3 SQL script files that are released with BPF 4.1 GA. However, the BPF Explorer hangs when you manually import the BPF Manifest (bpf_cm_oracle.xml) for the Case Management sample application.

Symptom

BPF Explorer hangs at the Importing Configuration step when importing "WORKFLOW_ROUTER (83)", as illustrated below.

Cause

In the Step3.oracle.Bp8.Metabase.1.0.sql script file, the "COMMIT;" clause is incorrectly truncated. This results in a transaction lock on the NAME="WORKFLOW_ROUTER" row in the APPLICATION_SETTINGS table. This lock causes BPF Explorer to stop when trying to change the NAME="WORKFLOW_ROUTER" row.

Resolving The Problem

When this problem happens, go to the Oracle SQL Plus or SQL Plus Worksheet. This is the window you used to run the Step3 script. The window is still active and is still connected to Oracle.

Enter and run the following SQL clause:

COMMIT;

BPF Explorer will resume the import process.
