These days I am working with Oracle 10g and 11g products. One of my projects is to stand up a new Oracle 11g WebCenter Spaces Portal that would integrate with the existing Oracle 10g Single Sign On Server which is backed by Oracle Internet Directory. For the integration to be successful, there are few configuration settings that need to be implemented on both of the environments. Here is an overview of the main tasks that need to be completed in order to achieve the integration. Upgrade Oracle 10g Infrastructure tier to supported version (as of this writing, Oracle 11g is certified to work with version 10.1.4.3+). upgrade to 10.1.4.0.1 upgrade to 10.1.4.3 apply interim bug fixing patches Configure Oracle 11g WebLogic authentication providers Configure OIDAuthenticator Configure OSSOIdentityAsserter Re-associate Policy domain with OID create a new jps root node change association Register Oracle 11g WebCenter OHS with Oracle 10g OSSO Server ssoreg.sh Configure mod_o...

By default, Oracle WebCenter Spaces application is configured to use an embedded Ldap store for policy credentials which is not suitable for production environments. One of my tasks was to configure Oracle WebLogic and WebCenter Spaces application so that Policy and Credential Store would be hosted at an external Ldap store, in our case it was Oracle Internet Directory 10.1.4.3. This version of OID in our case was a patched version of OID from 10.1.2.3. We first patched it to version 10.1.4.0.1 and then applied other patches to bring the version to 10.1.4.3 which is the support version of OID by Oracle WebCenter Spaces. We followed the following documentation...
