Deploying OIM and OIA on the same domain

Around 1 year ago I came across this issue and could not find a solution. 16-ish months later and I've solved how to have OIA and OIM 11g residing on the same admin domain though on separate managed servers.

OIA-11g

You may have arrived on this webpage from the Oracle forum regarding the deployment failure or you're maybe a true IT professional and googled for the following:

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Unexpected exception parsing XML document from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/security-acls-context.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/weaver/tools/PointcutPrimitive

Either way I hope this helps.


The issue isn't because it cannot locate the class file (the aspectj.jar already exists in the web-inf directory), it's that OIA (built on an older spring framework) is conflicting with other jar version from an application or package on the same domain (in this case, OIM). Here's how to resolve the issue.


I'm assuming you have OIM 11g already installed on the same weblogic domain where you wish to deploy OIA


Create a new managed server

https://technicalconfessions.com/images/postimages/postimages/_35_3_Creating_a_new_managed_server_weblogic.png

Fairly simple to start off, log into the weblogic admin console and click servers (on the left-hand side) and then click new.

Call the server whatever you desire, in this example the managed server is called oia_server1, click next then click finish. Now you have a managed server ready for OIA

If you haven't followed the installation sets already, view the blog Install OIA 11.1.1.5 ensure you have completed all the steps just before the paragraph 'Locate your downloaded OIA repository (see picture), then click next'.

Go to the $RBACX_HOME/WEB-INF directory and create a new file called weblogic.xml. Within the weblogic.xml file, copy and paste the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<weblogic-web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee">
<container-descriptor>
<prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
</container-descriptor>
</weblogic-web-app>
</h4>

This will allow the classes within the web-inf to be preferred over any other class file within the domain


Proceed with the installation by continuing from the Locate your downloaded OIA repository (see picture), then click next paragraph within the Install OIA 11.1.1.5 guide though instead of starting up the weblogic admin domain, start the managed weblogic server

The command I used:
./startManagedWebLogic.sh <managed_server_name> http://<hostname_or_ip>:<port_number_of_the_admin_server>

sudo ./startManagedWebLogic.sh oia_server1 http://172.16.128.128:7001

Ensure the user you're using has permissions to start up the weblogic server, root user would be enough (though it's not recommended to start up admin servers/managed servers as root ) a normal user with sudo access would be sufficient.


Common issue - Copy-Pasting

When you copy-paste, make sure that the double-quotes are matching. As you can see within the picture, there's a difference, which causes the application to fail on deployment

HOW TO provision AD group membership from OpenIDM

OpenIDMICFAD-connector

June 15, 2018
Created by: Daniel Redfern
For what I see, there's not too many supportive documentations out there that will demonstrate how provision AD group membership with the ICF connector using OpenIDM. The use of the special ldapGroups attribute is not explained anywhere in the Integrators guides to to the date of this blog. This quick blog identifies the tasks required to provision AD group membership from OpenIDM to AD using the LDAP ICF connector. However this doesn't really explain what ldapGroups actually does and there's no real worked example of how to go from an Assignment to ldapGroups to an assigned group in AD. I wrote up a wiki article for my own reference: AD group memberships automatically to users This is just my view, others may disagree, but I think the implementation experience could be improved with some more documentation and a more detailed example here.
