MSCA Overview

Oracle® Mobile Supply Chain Applications (MSCA) enables automated mobile user operations. This is performed using hand held radio frequency (RF) devices, PDA’s, and lift truck mounted RF scanners.

Oracle MSCA is part of the Oracle Supply Chain Management solution, the integrated suite that streamlines design, planning, manufacturing and fulfillment.

MWA Testing & Error Logging

Configuration Files mwa.cfg: This file has information about the DBC file location, Log Dir Location, Telnet Port

no Location. This info will be used by Mobile Applications on runtime. default_key.ini: This file is used to map the keys of the mobile device to some specific

functionality. Use the default file if you don’t want to customize anything. deviceIP.ini: This file maps the configuration files and host name with the mobile device

MWA Server Startup and Shutdown mwactl.sh: This file is used to start/stop the MWA listener on specific port. mwactl.sh start <port no> to Start the services on the Listener mwactl.sh -login <userid/pwd> stop_force <port no> to stop the services on the Listener

File Location $MWA_TOP/bin $MWA_TOP/secure $INST_TOP/admin/scripts $INST_TOP/admin/install In R12, INST_TOP may look like: /u01/appldev/DEV/inst/apps/DEV_w-oraap01

Log Files The log files are located under $INST_TOP/logs The Logging Levels are Fatal, Error, Warning, Debug & Trace All the log files start with Telnet_port_no as a prefix

-rw-r--r-- 1 appldev dba 255626 Feb 8 13:28 10240.INV.log Simpler way to look for logs tail -f 10240.INV.log
