Installing Oracle Database 11g Release 2 hangs at Desktop Class (step 4) in Windows 7



The following steps should be followed to solve this problem.

1. Run cmd as Administrator.

2. Navigate to the directory where the your setup.exe resides for oracle 11g using the cmd.

3. Type the following command and press enter.

Remember to give the path to where your java jdk is installed in your system here. Most importantly, I have used PROGRA~1 as a replacement for the string "Program Files". The reason for the installer to hang at step 4 is it cannot find the correct path to the JDK when the path contains spaces.
Use PROGRA~2 as a replacement for the string "Program Files (x86)". This depends on where your JDK is installed.

setup.exe -jreLoc C:\PROGRA~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_40

Cheers :)

How to import the Public Certificate of one WSO2 product to the trust store of another?

To demonstrate this point, I will use the 2 products WSO2 API Manager 2.1.0 (referred as APIM from here onwards) and WSO2 Enterprise Integrator 6.1.1 (referred as EI from here onwards). When using EI as the Business Process Server during configuration of Workflows in APIM, one step to perform is to import the public certificate of EI to the truststore of APIM [1]. So now let's see how this can be done. Step 1: Go to <EI_HOME>/repository/resources/security/ folder and execute the following keytool command. This command is used to export the public certificate of EI as a certificate file called wso2carbon.cer. Since the default keystore in EI is wso2carbon.jks, we have specified it as the keystore and the default alias is wso2carbon. Provide wso2carbon as the keystore password when prompted as it is the default password. After executing the above command from within the security folder in EI, you will see that a file with the name of wso2carbon.cer is created...

How to connect my database instance with elastic beanstalk instance in AWS?

If you have deployed your web application in Elastic Beanstalk in AWS and now you need to connect a database to this instance, and your database is actually residing in a different instance, how can you actually connect them? It's easy with Elastic Beanstalk. I will explain an example scenario that I used for connecting my elastic beanstalk web application with another instance containing my MongoDB database.

EX:- Like localhost, in this case, it will be the Public DNS of your database instance 4. The password of your database if exists. First these details need to be set as environment variables in Elastic Be...
