Make EBS R12 Compatible for Mac OS X v10.9.x with Safari Browser (as well as for Windows Client PC also)

We have requirement to open forms of our EBS R12 (12.1.3) Production Instance on Mac OS X v10.9 Client PC with their Safari Browser but it should be still compatible with Windows OS.

To implement this, we have followed below Metalink Note IDs,

• Recommended Browsers for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 389422.1)

• Deploying JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 393931.1)

• Upgrading OracleAS 10g Forms and Reports in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 437878.1)

• Using JDK 7.0 Latest Update with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.0 and 12.1 (Doc ID 1467892.1)

1) Issues Faced While Applying OPatch for 10g AS 10.1.2.3,

OPATCH_JAVA_ERROR=CHECKCONFLICT: OPATCH CANNOT PROCESS OVERLAY PATCHES BECAUSE OF NO OUI SUPPORT. PLEASE TAKE LATEST OUI 10.1 PATCHSET FROM "MY ORACLE SUPPORT" AND TRY AGAIN.

2) Issue faced while opening form in Windows :



Unsigned Entry in Resource Error

java.lang.SecurityException: com.sun.deploy.net.JARSigningException: Found unsigned entry in resource: http://server1.example.com:10403/OA_JAVA/oracle/apps/fnd/jar/fndforms.jar 

Workaround : 

If you are unable to upgrade your JDK at this time, you can workaround this issue by turning off Java caching through the Java Control Panel on the desktop:

Java Control Panel -> General (tab) -> Settings (button) -> Keep Temporary Files on the Computer (Uncheck)

Solution :

1. Upgrade the JDK version of your application tier node by following the appropriate document below: 

• Using Latest Java 6.0 Update With Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Document 455492.1)

• Using JDK 7.0 Latest Update with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.0 and 12.1 (Document 1467892.1)

2. Regenerate the jar files using the 'force' option through adadmin.
