Last week, I successfully installed Oracle Fusion Applications 11.1.3  on our Linux Server. Contact Us If you are looking for Fusion Applications Installation, Implementation or Training.

In this post I’ll cover one of many issues faced during Fusion Application 11.1.3 installation.

Fusion Application Installation includes various phases  - Pre-verify , Install, Pre-configure, Configure, Configure-secondary, Post-configure, Start-up and finally validate.

This error is at preverify stage and message in installation log $FA_BASE/logs/provisioning/plan<randomNumber>/<hostname>/ is

________

Preverify phase of Fusion Applications Installation uses ant build file containing ant targets that handle pre-verification. One of the ant build file is $FA_PROVISIONING_FRAMEWORK_HOME/ provisioning/provisioning-build/common-preverify-build.xml

Open this file and search for provisioning.setup.pillars.core.schema.schema.FUSION_RUNTIME.schema.password

Replace provisioning.setup.pillars.core.schema.schema.FUSION_RUNTIME.schema.password 
with 
schema.fusion.default-password

Entry before change

______

<validatePasswordPolicy username=”${provisioning.setup.pillars.core.schema.schema.FUSION_RUNTIME.schema.username}”
password=”${provisioning.setup.pillars.core.schema.schema.FUSION_RUNTIME.schema.password}”
pattern=”${common.regex}”/>

______

.

Entry after change
______

<validatePasswordPolicy username=”${provisioning.setup.pillars.core.schema.schema.FUSION_RUNTIME.schema.username}”
password=”${schema.fusion.default-password}”
pattern=”${common.regex}”/>
