All,

I've compiled an archive of the extra jars required by OTM v5.5 for a successful installation. These jars are listed by the README.TXT section displayed at the end of an OTM installation and finding the correct versions can be difficult and time consuming. I use this on every OTM install and saves a TON of time

NOTE: If you are running OTM v5.5 with a patch level LOWER then v5.5 CU02 RU04 (5.5.2.4), then use the jars directly below.

Library Archive (click link to download): mw-otm55_extrajars.zip

NOTE: If you are running OTM v5.5 with a patch level AT or ABOVE v5.5 CU02 RU04 (5.5.2.4), then use the jars directly below. These include updated libraries for faster web UI response times. In addition, you'll need to do the following manual steps. (For details, see Oracle Metalink note 471363.1)

1. Go to the $OTM_HOME/glog/gc3webapp/WEB-INF/lib/3rdparty/ directory
2. If saxpath.jar exist rename the file to saxpath.jar.orig.

FYI - an additional library archive has been uploaded, including updated libraries which improve the Web UI performance of OTM v5.5 CU02 RU04 and higher. See Oracle Metalink note 471363.1 for more details.

Thanks!
