In the Oracle JVM Web Services Call-Out Utility Developer’s guide, it states that the install_ojvmwcu.sql script must be run, but if you do that, it will ask you for a value. Which value?

In 12.2.0.1 the script has been changed, but the documentation hasn’t. The value it is asking for is a password, the password of the OJVMWCU_INSTALL user. Hang on? According to the docs this user must be created manualy first… not any more.

The “install_ojvmwcu.sql” calls “@configure_ojvmwcu.sql &1”, that’s where the “Enter value for 1:” comes from.
The “configure_ojvmwcu.sql” contains:

install_schema  VARCHAR2(20) := 'OJVMWCU_INSTALL';
...

procedure create_user as
  user_exists integer := 0;
begin
  select count(1) into user_exists from dba_users where username = install_schema;
  if user_exists != 0 then
    execute immediate 'drop user ' || install_schema || ' cascade';
  end if;
  execute immediate 'create user ' || install_schema || ' identified by &1';
...

Aha! The &1 the password of the OJVMWCU_INSTALL user, if it’s there it will be dropped and it will be created.

So, run “install_ojvmwcu.sql  password” for installing and creating the OJVMWCU_INSTALL user automagically. After that, grant users with “@grant_ojvmwcu.sql  user”.

Oh, run an “utlrp” (recompile invalid objects) after running the install_ojvmwcu.sql script.

Happy installing.
