TROUBLESHOOTING - X-server Xming unable to take input for Oracle FMW, Weblogic, DBCA wizard redirected using DISPLAY redirection

ISSUE:
X-server Xming unable to take input for Oracle FMW, Weblogic, DBCA wizard redirected using DISPLAY redirection

Recently while doing an OBIEE softtware install on linux server using EXPORT DISPLAY variable and rdirecting outout to a wintel machine using X-server like Xming, I was unable to provide keyboard input for Oracle FMW, Weblogic, DBCA wizard, as given  in below screenshots.





SOLUTION:
There was no solution found on MOS but after investigation it has been found that this kind of issue might appear due to incorrect JAVA version compatibility between XMing, Oracle software wizzards in commEnv.sh.

In order to fix the issue, I had to use a lower JDK version from a temp location.

1.) Download JDK version 1.6.0_45 could be downloaded from below URL:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html

2.) Once downloaded, extract install JDK in a temp location say /opt/oracle/test_java/jdk1.6.0_45

3.) Take the backup of commEnv.sh present inside <FMW_HOME>/wlserver_10.3/commn/bin

4.) Open the commEnv.sh and find JAVA_HOME
Comment out the exising higher version JAVA_HOME path and add New JAVA_HOME value for lower version JDK.

JAVA_HOME="usr/java/jdk1.7.0_05"
JAVA_HOME="/opt/oracle/test_java/jdk1.6.0_45"



5.) Save the file.

6.) Close the Oracle FMW, Weblogic, DBCA wizard on wintel.

7.) Execute the command fro Lnux machine using XMing & DISPLAY variable and this time you should be able to use keyboard and mouse successfully in the wizzard.

8.) Once wizzard run successfully. Rvert back the JDK version in commEnv.sh to original values for JDK higher version.

TROUBLESHOOTING (OBIEE/WEBLOGIC) - Windows registry related error while running startWebLogic.cmd

ISSUE:

While running startWebLogic.cmd below error is displayed:

<20 Mar, 2016 8:23:39 PM IST> <Error> <oracle.bi.management.localservices> <OBI-SYSMAN-1108> <Unexpected error configuring ODBC DSNs
oracle.bi.installhandler.util.ConfigurationException: Non-zero (1) return value Updating windows registry entry: Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\coreapplication_OH2030226780, Type: REG_SZ, Value: SecondaryCCS, Data: "", process stdout:

stderr:

ERROR: Access is denied.

Though the weblogic admin services gets started successfully and could login into weblogic console & EM but but notsure why error is appearing. Similar issue could also appear in starting the managed web servers as well.

SOLUTION:
The possible root cause seems related to the user id used to start the startWebLogic.cmd as windows 7, 8 & 10 have added constraints on access & permissions.

When startWebLogic.cmd is started as an administrator user i.e. "Run as Administrator", error does not appear.
