11.1.2.3: Products are unavailable even after downloading required assemblies



Sometimes when you try to install EPM few products are not available for install, there can be many reasons for that. Couple of them are, you have not downloaded the proper assemblies or needed .rpm are not present in OS. This issue not only restricted for version 11.1.2.3.

Here I have downloaded all the required assemblies but still when I ran the installer, all the products were grade out:


My first guess was: I forgot to download any of the parts of installer or forgot to extract any of them. But on investigating further:



Many OS packages were missing, so I started downloading them:

And yeah you can use wildcards to search and download the packages and it will automatically take care of the dependencies:



 Once packages were installed, I retried running installer few packages were still missing, installed them again:




Once done, try installing again:

Multiple Navigation Flows are Active

Image
We have witnessed an issue where application migration or sometimes service restart in PBCS/EPBCS activates multiple navigation flows.  If multiple navigation flows are active you wont be able make changes in any of them, because in order to make change in navigation flow you have to make it inactive. Typically you may end up in following situation:  Solution is pretty simple: 1. Create a copy of any of the existing navigation flow:  2. Give it any desired name:  3. Now, you will see one additional navigation flow, with inactive status: 4.  Make it active: 5.  At this point of time you will have one active navigation flow and two inactive  6. Select the additional navigation flow you have created and delete it  7. Now you are back in business: Rahul S.
