Could Not Get DeploymentManager When Deploying or Undploying Agile

When deploying and un-deploying Oracle Agile application, users may receive error "Could not get DeploymentManager”.

Problem: You will receive below error when Agile unable to deploy/un-deploy using admin_client.jar utility

Failed at "Could not get DeploymentManager".

This is typically the result of an invalid deployer URI format being supplied, the target server not being in a started state or incorrect authentication details being supplied.

More information is available by enabling logging -- please see the Oracle Containers for J2EE Configuration and Administration Guide for details.


Cause 1:- The deployment command uses opmn request port 6003 by default. You will receive the error If the install used different opmn port (6004)

Solution:- Replace the port from 6003 to 6004 in DeployAgilePLM.sh or UndeployAgilePLM.sh script

deployer:oc4j:[rmis]:opmn://host[:opmnPort]/[iASInstanceName] /oc4jInstanceName

Cause 2:- If the server name changed from fully qualified name to short name or vice versa then admin_client.jar utility unable to deploy and you will receive the error.

Solution:- Replace fully qualified name to short name or vice versa in DeployAgilePLM.sh or UndeployAgilePLM.sh script and run the script.

In some cases, the application may hang with following error message when deploying the Agile Application. It is due to the version mismatch or Admin Data Schema Version not present

How to Deploy and Un-deploy Oracle Agile Application

Whenever you are applying the patches to Oracle Agile environment, you need to Un-deploy and deploy the application.

Before you apply the patch you must Un-deploy the Agile application. After successful installation of the patch you must deploy the agile application in order to take effect of the applied patch.

Un-Deploy Agile application:-Go to Agile home directory and run below command
$ cd $/agileDomain/bin
$./ UndeployAgilePLM.sh

Where password is the oc4jadmin user password

12/02/09 14:04:10 Notification ==>Application UnDeployer for Agile STARTS.
12/02/09 14:04:11 Notification ==>Removing all web binding(s) for application Agile from all web site(s)
12/02/09 14:04:19 Notification ==>Application UnDeployer for Agile COMPLETES.

Follow the steps to apply a Patch in Oracle Agile environment
1. Check PMN processes are running on the Agile Server.

2. Stop the OPMN processes
$ opmnctl stopall

3. Unzip the patch to a temporary directory
For Unix
$/tmp//Install_Patch.sh
For Windows
C:\temp\\Install_Patch.bat

You will get a message “Is the Agile Application already undeployed? (y/n) “. You must enter Y inorder to proceed further.

Ignore the message "Enter Passphrase for keystore:" and let the installation continue

When the installation is completed, the “INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL” message will appear and press the return key to complete the installation.

4. Start OPMN processes
$ opmnctl startall

Deploy Agile application:-After successful installation of the patch deploy the Agile application

$ cd $/agileDomain/bin
$./DeployAgilePLM.sh

Where password is the oc4jadmin user password
12/02/09 14:06:50 Notification ==>Application Deployer for Agile STARTS.
………………………
……………………….
12/02/09 14:07:35 Notification ==>Binding web application(s) to site default-web-site ends...

12/02/09 14:07:35 Notification ==>Application Deployer for Agile COMPLETES. Operation time: 45434 msecs

Check the status of the agile application
$ opmnctl status

Make sure to check applied patch from application. If Deploy and Un-deploys fails with some reason then you will not see the applied patch in Application.

. Launch the application and login
. Click on help --> About Agile
. You should see the patch number under “updated versions”
