AIA Installation Learnings - Part II

This is the second part of the AIA Installation Learnings series (The first part can be found here). Today I learned another valuable lesson when it comes to the installation of AIA Foundation Pack on top of the Oracle SOA Suite.

Remember to set Listen Address
Apparently the AIA installation scripts uses information from the configuration of SOA Suite without being very intelligent about it. Long story short: Don't forget to set the Listen Address of the Managed servers in your SOA cluster.

If you are using WLST to generate your domain, you will want to add something similar to this in your script:

cd('/Servers/soa_server1')
set('ListenAddress', HOSTNAME)


Where HOSTNAME is the hostname of the interface where soa_server1 is listening. This should be done for all the managed servers in your SOA Suite cluster. Otherwise you might get an MalformedURLException during the installation.
