Deploying the custom jar into the OIM placeholder library

Deploying the custom jar into the OIM placeholder library

The placeholder library is the file oracle.iam.ui.custom-dev-starter-pack.war. This file is available along with the other OIM application packages (EARs and WARs) at $OIM_ORACLE_HOME/server/apps folder.

Before doing any modification to this file, create a backup of it.

Using a ZIP tool, like 7-Zip, the steps are:

1.       Open the oracle.iam.ui.custom-dev-starter-pack.war

2.       Add the custom jar file to the 'WEB-INF/lib' folder. If the 'lib' folder does not exist, create it

3.       Save the oracle.iam.ui.custom-dev-starter-pack.war file.

4.       Copy the oracle.iam.ui.custom-dev-starter-pack.war file back to its original location under $OIM_ORACLE_HOME/server/apps

5.       Stop OIM managed server

6.       In WebLogic administration console, update the 'oracle.iam.ui.custom' library deployment and activate the changes

7.       Start OIM managed server.
