Contex File Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)


What is the naming convention for the application tier context file?

The default name for the context file is <CONTEXT_NAME>.xml.

How can I make changes to a context file?

In Oracle Applications Manager (OAM), navigate to Site Map. Click on AutoConfig. Click on Edit Parameters to edit the relevant context file.

Can I use adbldxml.pl to generate context files in Release 12?


The adbldxml.pl utility can be used to generate the context file on the database tier only. It is commonly used when migrating AutoConfig to a database tier not created using Rapid Install or when upgrading a database tier from Applications 11i to EBusiness Suite Release 12. This utility is not supported on the applications tier.

How do I recover the Applications context file if it is lost or deleted accidentally?


The Applications context file can be retrieved by running the adclonectx.pl script.
To retrieve the applications tier context file,
             
Execute the following command on the applications tier.
perl <COMMON_TOP>/clone/bin/adclonectx.pl retrieve
             
On being prompted for the context file to be retrieved, select the option of retrieving the applications tier context file that has been lost and retrieve it to the default location specified by the script.
The above command can be used only when the <INST_TOP> is still intact. In case the <INST_TOP> has also been lost accidentally, the applications tier context file may be retrieved as follows:
             
Execute the following command on the database tier:
perl <ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/clone/bin/adclonectx.pl retrieve
             
On being prompted for the context file to be retrieved, select the option of retrieving the applications tier context file that has been lost.
             
While confirming the location for the context file, set it to any existing directory with write permission.
            
Once the context file has been generated in the specified location, move it to the location specified for the context file in the context variable 's_contextfile'.
To retrieve the database tier context file,
             
Execute the following command on the database tier:
perl <ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/clone/bin/adclonectx.pl retrieve

             
On being prompted for the context file to be retrieved, select the database tier context file and retrieve it to the default location specified by the script.

Collect below basis level of information to development team 1 Oracle seeded program/Custom program? 2 How much time it used earlier? 3 Is there any recent code change done in concurrent program? 4 Is this program fetching higher data compare to last run? 5 Does this job running any specific time/ It can be run any time? 6 Does this job fetching data using DB link? 7 Does the problem happen on both the test and production instance? Once asked above questions to development team in meanwhile we need to start basic sanity check in our environment. 1 Verify the status of the concurrent program select REQUEST_ID,phase_code,status_code,ORACLE_SESSION_ID from apps.fnd_concurrent_requests where request_id=’1234567’; 2 Find which concurrent manger ran a specific concurrent request select b.USER_CONCURR
