Reading through the Oracle Forum I stumbled upon a possible startup sequence for Oracle BI 11g.
Before you complete the steps below the following Windows Services should **not** be running.
a. Oracle Process Manager (instance1)
b. Oracle Weblogic NodeManager
After that follow the next steps;
–> Start NodeManager from the Command Prompt
Cd <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\wlserver_10.3\server\bin
startNodeManager.cmd
Wait untill you see message “Secure socket listener start at port……”
–> Start Admin server from command prompt
Cd <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\bin
startWebLogic.cmd
It will ask for user name / password. Specify the user details that you used at the time of the Oracle BI 11g install. You could also use a ‘Boot Identity File’ -(boot.properties). Check the documentation for more details.
Wait untill you see message Admin server is in ‘RUNNING MODE’.
–> Now start Managed server from GUI
Access WebLogic console from a webbrowser
http://<machinename>:7001/console
Login, Environment > servers > Control > select bi_server1 > click on start
It would take some time for the Managed server to start. Wait untill you see the ‘Running’ status.
–> Now start the OBIEE components from command prompt
Cd <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\instances\instance1\bin
opmnctl startall
Note that it’s a possible startup sequence. There are multiple ways to statup.
Thank you for this post. I followed your steps exactly and everything came up right. It was very useful.
