Follow these steps to setup a development environment for Oracle Service Bus 11gR1 (11.1.1.6 is used in this example)
Download these components:
- Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.6) and Coherence and OEPE for Windows (32-bit) (Part Number: V24367-01)
- Oracle Service Bus 11g (11.1.1.6.0) (Part Number: V29756-01)
Product Pack: Oracle Fusion Middleware
Platform: Microsoft Windows (32bit)
Choose media pack: Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) 11.1.1.6.0 (Part number: B55383-41)
(Tip: Search for the Part numbers to make sure you download the correct versions)
First, install WebLogic Server with Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 + Coherence + OEPE and then install Oracle Service Bus.
When you install OSB, be sure to select the OEPE that is located inside the middleware directory.
After both installations, in the directory “Middleware directory/oepe_11gR1PS2” is eclipse.exe. If you execute this file, you can open Eclipse and start with creating an osb project.
Side note;
Some people can’t see the OSB perspective in Eclipse after this installation. Apparently it’s a rights issue which can be solved by navigating to the Oracle_OSB directory via Windows Explorer. You will be asked for permission to access that directory and after that dialogue you will be able to open the OSB perspective within Eclipse.
Het is me gelukt 🙂
Hi am not able to open osb perspective in eclipse. The following error is thrown if i try to open. “Could not create the view: Plug-in “com.bea.alsb.ui.resources.common” was unable to instantiate class “com.bea.alsb.ui.resources.common.reference.ReferenceView”.
Plz help ..
Hi Sujjun, did you try the side note mentioned in the post?

I’m having the same problem here. I’ve tried the exactly same thing that’s discribed on side note, and it still not working. Any other solutions? Thanks!
Hi Felipe,
Just checking, but you did finish the following points?
Hi sujjun,
How did you resolve this problem ?

Could not create the view: Plug-in “com.bea.alsb.ui.resources.common” was unable to instantiate class “com.bea.alsb.ui.resources.common.reference.ReferenceView”

Where would one find the the OSB installation file, anyway.
There is no Download button or link in the ‘Download’ page:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/service-bus/downloads/index.html
Hi Hermann,
You should click the radiobutton labeled “Accept License Agreement”, after that the download links are visible. I’ve added the direct links below here (you should still agree to the license agreement before you’re able to download them)
This is the direct link to the OEPE: http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls/1036/oepe-wls-indigo-installer-11.1.1.8.0.201110211138-10.3.6-win32.exe
This is the direct link to the OSB add on: http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/111160/ofm_osb_generic_11.1.1.6.0_disk1_1of1.zip
I also faced same issue. I was using eclipse with OEPE plugin and after that I installed OSB and I have just restarted the eclipse from File > Restart but you should properly exit from the eclipse and open OEPE from below link not from earlier shortcut:-
“C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse”.
Thanks for the tip!
