Oracle e-business Code Migration tool : Install.pl(download)(Download) is a smart installation tool to install customisations for the Oracle e-business suite. It is designed to make the process of installing e-business customizations least intrusive and doesn't require any attention once the process has been kick started. The tool relies on code being organised efficiently in a pre-defined directory structure format. Once the code is presented this way the tool reads the files and installs them. It ascertains the type of file that you are dealing with and chooses the appropriate installation method. The expected directory structure is as follows: 1. sql - For all sql files 2. pld - for all form library files 3. ldt - for all ldt files 4. reports - for all reports files 5. forms - for all forms files 6. java - for all java files. If you need to create OA Fwk files create the complete package structure for both server side and webui files. i.e A typical region file would be under: oracle.apps.xx.webui.ABCRN.xml A typical View Object file would be under: oracle.apps.xx.server.ABCVO.xml 7. jsp - for all html files 8. xmlpub - for all BI Publisher related files i.e data templates/bursting files/ rtf files etc. All files in the xmlpub directory need to be downloaded first using XDOLoader DOWNLOAD command. This would ensure that they are named as per the right convention that would help the tool ascertain the lob type/lob code / product short code and other details required to upload the file to the database. 9. images - for all images that need to be copied into $OA_MEDIA directory 10. jlt - for all jlt files that need to be installed for all AK Developer objects. 11. wft - for all wft files for workflow related installations. 12. wfx- for all business event files 13. prog - for all host concurrent program files. This would also create the soft link to $FND_TOP/bin/fndcpesr e.g: The usage of the program is : perl Install.pl(download) <apps_pwd> <custom_directory> <debug=[true|false]> This program uses a pre-defined file Please do leave your feedback it would be extremely valuable.
