R12 - Logon is not working, no error message is shown

SYMPTOMS:

After the clone of an E-Business Suite Instance Release 12.0.6, the logon was not working as expected on the target Instance.

Launching the logon URL

http://<hostname>.<domain>:<Port>
 is redirected to

http://host.domain:port/OA_HTML/AppsLocalLogin.jsp

Result :

Nothing happens - no Homepage screen is presented, neither an error message is brought up.

SOLUTION:

To implement the solution, please execute the following steps :

1. Open a new Shell and source the APPS User Environment

2. Change into the $FND_TOP Patch directory

cd $FND_TOP/patch/115/bin

3. Compile the JSP files using following command :

perl ojspCompile.pl --compile --flush -p 2

4. Initiate the execution of Autoconfig on the DB- and the APPS_Tier(s)

5. Start the APPS-Tier(s) Services again and re-test the logon
