Configuring Human Task Webform URL in BPM/SOA

Image
For every human task, the webform URI i.e. Hostname and Port can be configure using below two methods. 1. Manually changing or correcting the URI in EM console. 2. Specifying the Hostname and Port in hwtaskflow.xml of UI project before deployment. But, many times, this configuration is missed during deployment time.  In some cases, we there is a cluster environment with HTTP server configured over SSL. In this case, we do not want the user to use the HTTP URL, or manually change the protocol and Port to Http. In order to handle the above situation, we can configure the URL permanently in SOA workflow properties.  SOA Administration->WorkFlow Properties-> Look for  FusionAppsFrontEndHostUrl property. Configure this property to the hostname and port which we want the webform to always render on. Once this property is configured, even if we missed to configure human task URI or configure the hostname incorrectly. The server will redirect the request to the UR

Installing Rasbian on Raspberry PI 2 without Monitor

This post will explain the step by step process to install Rasbain OS on Raspberry PI 2 without connecting to monitor or keyboard using windows machine. I ordered Raspberry PI 2 and was quiet excited to get started. I only had the Raspberry PI and 8GB SD card. I have a monitor but it does not have HDMI port. I also did not have the HDMI to VGA convertor, thus was not able to connect to monitor. I had my laptop, so based on the various post online I installed Rasbain on my PI by following below steps. 1 . Download the RASBIAN OS from Raspberry PI site. I downloaded "RASPBIAN JESSIE 4.1". https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ The Rasbian ZIP, "2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie" contain  2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie.iso file. 2 . Download SD Card Formatter. I recommend not to format the SD card using windows format feature. Use SD Card Formatter to format the SD. https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/ You will need Micro SD card and a Card Read
