A DBAs take on MSCA (Mobile supply chain applications)

Filed under: 11i, Oracle kkempf @ 3:23 pm

What is MSCA?
MSCA is Oracles take on mobile ERP. In manufacturing, having Oracle on a PC is sometimes
inconvenient. Being able to process certain transactions where they actually happen is a huge win. So
is being able to scan a barcode at this location, instead of typing in a long item number or purchase
order number. Some common examples may be going out to the warehouse and counting inventory,
transferring or issuing inventory, or even shipping and receiving. We use the LXE MX-7 as our
mobile device; its basically a Windows CE device connected to our network via WiFi:

Architecture
Basically, MSCA is a telnet server running on the front end of 11i (possibly several servers load
balanced by dispatchers), and either telnet or a little java GUI (on top of telnet) on the client side. As
far as I can tell, its about as secure as an open barn door and in about the same technological era as
the barn itself. In other words, its in dire need of a facelift, and a technology upgrade, but at least it
works.

Starting/Stopping the Telnet Server

Of course, this assumes everything is configured reasonably well; in my case, autoconfig had already
done all that work in $MWA_TOP as far as config files (with all the defaults). Where I have
admin_user it means someone with the canned responsibility MWA Server Manager.
Start
cd $MWA_TOP
./mwactl.sh start
Stop
cd $MWA_TOP
./mwactl.sh -login admin_user/password stop_force

Logging In
The quickest way to do it is via telnet. Yep. From a command line in Windows, type telnet host
port where host is where you just started the service from $MWA_TOP and port is one of the 3 ports it
cranked up a telnet listener on. These ports are displayed when the mwactl.sh start command
completes, and are in a config file called mwa.cfg in $MWA_TOP/secure.
Heres some screenshots of the telnet version. I admit, my telnet client isnt doing the application any
favors, but then again, neither is the application.

Telnet: Closing Thoughts

I dont know who would choose to use telnet for this, or why, but its there, and it works. You have to
use a bunch of crazy key combinations to do things (theyre listed in the users guide, like ctrl-Z to
exit).

The GUI client

Jumping forward 20 years, we get to the java GUI client. Of course, Oracle only officially supports
this running on Windows. Basically, you have to pull a patch (4205328) and extract 1 file from it
(j4205328.zip) and land it in a directory on your Windows machine. After that, you install Sun/Oracle
JDK and mock up a .cmd file to make the GUI launch. Fortunately, it also runs from Linux (Warning:
You are now leaving the supported zone!) since its just a tiny java app sitting in front of the telnet
screen and making the screen bearable.

Installing the GUI client

1. Create a folder somewhere on a Windows box called msca (or whatever you want to call it), then
create 2 folders in it callled lib and log.
2. Install the most recent JDK wherever it installs itself. The docs say install 1.1.8, but I dont think
youre allowed to download Java from 1999 anymore
3. Download the patch 4205328.zip; unzip it and extract the file j4205328.zip and put it in msca/lib
4. Create a command file called runMSCA.cmd and stick it in the msca directory. Edit it, and add
these lines:

5. set MWA_GUI_TOP=C:\msca
set JAVA_TOP="c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25"
%JAVA_TOP%\bin\java -classpath %JAVA_TOP%\lib\classes.zip;%MWA_GUI_TOP%\lib\j4205328.

Launching the GUI client

Double click the .cmd file and you get to the login. These screenshots are from Ubuntu, the Windows
appearance is similar.

Warning!
This is not an implementation guide. Its just a mid-depth technical introduction to this product.
Functionally, best practices would be to get away from canned responsibilities and pare down
transactions by job role. I do know that the few transactions we tested work fine. Ive left out a lot of
other things. There is a whole web-based interface which you can log into via conventional 11i to see
who is using the server, whether the server is running or not, etc. I found it less than useful (and in
some of what it reported, flat out wrong) so I didnt go into detail here, but it exists and looks
something like this:

Relevant Canned Responsibilities

If you just turn on telnet and try to log in, you will have 0 responsibilities. Try giving yourself the
following:

MWA Administrator
MWA Server Manager (needed to stop the telnet server!)
Mobile Quality User
Materials Management
Materials & Mfg
MWA WAP
Mobile Field Sales User
Mobile_Client_User

Shout and Spy Modes

This is one of the best parts about this product. From the admin menu, theres 2 cool options which
Ive tested and work great:
Telnet Session Monitor lets you spy on a user (from a list of users logged in) and watch
EXACTLY what theyre doing

Send Message broadcast a message to a user (from a list of users logged in) or to all users it
takes over their screen until they acknowledge it. Something like System going down in 5
minutes might be useful

Using adstrtal.sh and adstpall.sh to start/stop the telnet

server
This had the potential to be a disaster, but I was pleasantly surprised to find document 731320.1 which
details a patch required and a context file tweak (s_mwastatus and s_other_service_group_status to
enabled) which will then automatically start the service with all the other pieces on the front end.

Set Up Concurrent Request

If youre using manufacturing, you should run the concurrent request Generate Stock Locator
Flexfield definitions for Mobile transactions in order to set up your locators. Hat tip to the guys at
Skipjack for that help; if you dont do this, all your locators are X and nothing you enter is valid. Im
sure this is in one of the setup documents I mentioned, probably buried in the functional details. You
can run this request as the canned responsibility Inventory.

Running the GUI from Linux

If anyone is interested in the setups required to launch the GUI from Linux, drop a comment. Its
really not that hard to figure out if you model it on the Windows requirements and adjust as
necessary. In fact, if you have to ask, maybe you should just be running Windows

Getting Oracle to work is a customization

Filed under: 11i kkempf @ 9:49 am

Mobile Supply Chain loose ends

There were a few items in mobile supply chain which I followed up on, out of curiosity. They
revolved around the html-based administrative pieces which you can access after an 11i login. The
short of it is, that they simply do not work out of the box in 11i. So I opened SRs, just to run them to
ground, and found out that to make them work, I needed to make changes to my context file and
more important, to $IAS_HOME jserv.properties.
You may or may not be familiar with the authorized way of customizing a template in 11i. Back in the
good old days, you just marked up the config file to what you needed, and hoped autoconfig didnt
access it. Sounds crazy, but in autoconfigs infancy, in most cases, it didnt, or possibly you just didnt
use/trust autoconfig because it was just as likely to break your 11i environment as fix it. Nowadays,
autoconfig is usually right and fairly indispensable. The proper and supported method for
customizing a config file is via custom templates, and the method is outlined in note 270519.1
Customizing an AutoConfig Environment. Really, if youre not familiar with it, I strongly
recommend reading it.

On to the problems
1. As a part of installing MSCA, I tried to log into the administrative pages from 11i. When logging
in as the MWA Server Manager responsibility, I then selected Monitor Server. It took me to the
next page, where it complained with the error Unable to obtain MWA_TOP. Please makesure to
set the JVM parameter oracle.apps.mwa. This was a known issue under 11i, as spelled out
in 415945.1 (or 782162.1 for R12). Hey this should be no sweat then, right? I mean, its a known (if
not prolific) problem, having survived even a migration to R12. MSCA has been around for years,
and 11i is under Extended Support per this document, which specifically says it includes
Updates, fixes, security alerts, data fixes, and critical patch updates. I would say this is a fix,
right, as autoconfig breaks their product from running, right out of the box? Nope.

2. Three values in the context file are wrong, out of the box. Oracle doesnt recognize dashes - or
commas , for these values <mwaPortNo oa_var=s_mwaPortNo oa_type=PORT>1020010205</mwaPortNo> or <mwaTelnetPortNo oa_var=s_mwaTelnetPortNo
oa_type=PORT>10260,10262,10264</mwaTelnetPortNo> or <mwaDispatcherPort
oa_var=s_mwaDispatcherPort oa_type=PORT>10300-10303</mwaDispatcherPort>. The
values 10200-10205 and 10300-10303 in my case, should actually be 10200;10202;10204 and 10300
respectively. Where did these dashed/comma values come from? Beats me. I guess I could go
digging, but the truth is, thats not my job. Support didnt seem to care, at all, that their default
values were wrong (which is the only reason I opened the SR), only giving me the fix (change the
values). My concern here wasnt to nitpick. It was that Id do something like update to the latest
autoconfig template patch and theyd break again. Or that perhaps Oracle didnt actually mean to
deliver this product wrong out of the box, and might be interested to learn that somewhere the
ports were being inserted wrong. Regardless, the analyst simply wanted to get the ticket closed.

A few SRs later

The fix for the first issue boils down to a bad template, or at least a template which needs to be
updated. I thought this odd, since the actual document explaining the process is titled Customizing
an AutoConfig Environment. To summarize, in order to get the web based MWA server management
right, you have to make a customization to the template. This just doesnt sit right with me, since Im still
under support. Isnt this a bug? Wont they fix this in the next autoconfig rollup patch? Well heres
the details of the fix again, in case you need it:
mkdir $FND_TOP/admin/template/custom
cp $FND_TOP/admin/template/jserv_ux_ias1022.properties $FND_TOP/admin/template/custom
edit the new file in /custom, add this line:
wrapper.bin.parameters=-Doracle.apps.mwa=<full path to your $MWA_TOP, such
as /u01/app/mwa/11.5.0
restart Apache

Youre trying to install a one-off functional fix, but the patch says you must be
on AP.N or greater. You could try to dig through notes, OAM, or some other
method to determine what version youre on. Or you could go old school.
WARNING: requires command prompt knowledge! Just kidding there. Seems
that nobody wants you to use a command prompt anymore
That said, go to some logical directory (or make one) on (one of) the applications tier of the
environment in question.
$ wget ftp://ftp.oracle.com/support/outgoing/PATCHSET_COMPARE_TOOL/patchsets.sh
$ chmod +x patchsets.sh
$ ./patchsets.sh (provide apps/password@SID when it asks)
Sit back and watch it spool it will create a text version of what youre seeing on screen as
Report_11i.txt.
$ cat Report_11i.txt

WARNING on Family Packs and Patchsets:

The patchsets included in a Family Pack are not all distributed as standalone, but
should show up in ad_bugs as an included patch. These were not included
in the Report because they were not downloadable directly from Metalink. This has
caused some confusion in the real Baseline or Running patchsets because you had to
determine that based on the readme of your Family Packs that have been applied.
This has been changed and the patchsets in /tmp/11i_patchsets.txt now includes all
the patchsets even if they are not standalone and you cannot get them as one offs.
See the new Status field in the Latest Available column. or check /tmp/11i_patchsets.tx
Please check Metalink for final patchset availability questions and Distribution Status
Note1:
Latest Available:

This may be Distributed via Metalink as standalone or only by a Fami

Until release 3.3 of this script, the Installed Version only included Standalone releas
and not any of the patchsets included in Family Packs.
Note2: (as of v.4.14)
Latest Available shows all patchsets even if NOT AVAILABLE for download on
Metalink. An optional flag to limit Latest Available to patches only available
on metailink has been provided. ie. Add: available=metalink to command line.
Note3:
TXK patches are delivered by 11i.ATG_PF. RUPxyz and no longer as
patchsets, but as one off rollups. ie. Only TXK.A and TXK.B were
delivered as patchsets.
