After overview of Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM from Stellent) here<\/a>, today’s\u00a0post covers Installation of Oracle Content Server<\/strong> (Repository for UCM<\/strong> – Web Content Management, Document Management, Record Management ….). Content Server is key component of UCM\u00a0which contains repository of UCM (solution from Stellent<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Assumptions with Content Server (repository for UCM) Installation<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Database <\/strong>:\u00a0We are using Oracle <\/strong>10.2.0.1 as database for Content Server, other supported databases are MS-SQL<\/strong>, IBM DB2<\/strong>, Sybase<\/strong>…\u00a0<\/p>\n

2. Web Server<\/strong> : We are using Oracle HTTP Server<\/strong> (powered by Apache) as Web Server, other supported web servers are Sun One Server<\/strong>, IBM<\/strong> HTTP Server, stand alone Apache<\/strong>…\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> JDK<\/strong> : Content Server comes with its own JDK but installation gives you option to\u00a0use existing\u00a0JDK\u00a0(Java Development Kit) on server.<\/p>\n

.<\/p>\n

Database Preparation
\n<\/u>
\n1. <\/strong>Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 database on Linux , check here<\/a>\u00a0 or here<\/a>
\n
\n2.\u00a0<\/strong>Create tablespace for content server<\/strong> data
\nSQL> create tablespace content_system datafile ‘\/datafile_location\/content_system01.dbf’ size 300M;<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Create temporary tablespace<\/strong> for content server data
\nSQL> create temporary tablespace content_temp tempfile ‘\/datafile_location\/content_temp.dbf’ size 100M;<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> Create database user like db_admin<\/strong>
\nSQL> create user db_admin identified by db_admin temporary tablespace content_temp default tablespace content_system;<\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> Create role<\/strong> like
\nSQL> CREATE ROLE stellent_role;
\nSQL> GRANT CREATE SESSION TO stellent_role;
\nSQL> GRANT CREATE TABLE TO stellent_role;
\nSQL> GRANT CREATE TYPE TO stellent_role;
\nSQL> GRANT CREATE PROCEDURE TO stellent_role;
\nSQL> GRANT CTXAPP TO stellent_role;<\/p>\n

6.<\/strong>Grant role and unlimited tablespace to content db<\/strong> user
\nSQL> GRANT stellent_role to db_admin;
\nSQL> GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO db_admin;<\/p>\n

.
\nWeb Server Preparation<\/u><\/strong> \u00a0<\/p>\n

Install Web Server, I installed Oracle HTTP Server<\/strong> (10.1.3.1.0) from Oracle Application Server 10g R3 CD (10.1.3..).<\/p>\n

Oracle HTTP Server\u00a0shipped with Oracle Application Server Media 10.1.3.1\u00a0\u00a0is\u00a0built on Apache 1.3.X version. Web Server\u00a0for Content Server should be on Apache 2.X or higher.
\nOracle Application Server 10.1.3.1 companion<\/strong> CD comes with HTTP Server 2.0<\/font>.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0
\n.<\/p>\n

Key Inputs during Content Server Installation\u00a0
\n<\/u><\/strong>
\nA. \u00a0Native File Repository (vault) <\/strong>: is file repository where all checked-in files are stored in their native format (format in which they were created like word,gif..). Default location is directory vault<\/strong> inside Content Server base install directory.<\/p>\n

B. Web Viewable file repository<\/strong> (weblayout<\/strong>) : is file repository where all checked-in files are stored in web-viewable format<\/strong> (e.g. PDF). Default location is directory weblayout<\/strong> inside Content Server base install directory.<\/p>\n

C.<\/strong> Master Server or Proxied Server<\/strong> : In order to scale up (large client base) content Server deployment, you could install multiple content server; one as master<\/strong> and other ones as proxied server<\/strong>(s<\/strong>) each with their own Content Server Instances<\/strong>, Web Viewable file repository<\/strong>, Native File Repository<\/strong>, but share<\/strong> main communication interface<\/strong> and page delivery engine<\/strong> with master server.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

D. Installation Log<\/strong> : Finally in case of any issues, Check Installation logs at $CONTENT_SERVER_BASE_INSTALL_DIR\/ install<\/strong>\/ log.txt<\/strong>

Oracle Content Server (repository & Core Services for UCM) Installation<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Start Installation by running setup.sh<\/strong> from directory as per your operating system.<\/p>\n

Provide Locale<\/strong>, Installation Type<\/strong>, Core Folder<\/strong> location.\u00a0
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Select JVM<\/strong>, Vault<\/strong>, Web Viewable <\/strong>file repository, Master Server<\/strong>, Admin Server<\/strong> as shown below<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Select time zone<\/strong>, content server port<\/strong>, Admin port<\/strong>, security filter<\/strong>, URL Prefix<\/strong> as shown below<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>Select Web Server Address, Instance Name, Web Server Type <\/strong>and Database Server type<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

5.<\/strong>\u00a0Select Database Server<\/strong>,\u00a0DB Port<\/strong>, DB User<\/strong>, DB Password<\/strong> and Content Server additional components<\/strong> to install<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

6. <\/strong>If there are no issues you should see option 1 Proceed<\/strong> as highlighted, In my case it was option 2 Change Configuration<\/strong> (means some issue).<\/font> “stellentrole.sql<\/strong>” missing, on careful inspection I realized\u00a0I was using wrong database user (system), I should have used db_admin (created above)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

7. <\/strong>Rerun configuration and fix issues\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

8.<\/strong> You should see “1. Proceed” , press enter for installation at this stage<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

9. <\/strong>Finally\u00a0output should look like<\/p>\n
