ErrorHandling in SOA 11g

In SOA 11g we can go for common error handling approach to capture fault at component and composite level.In this test cases I’ve one HelloWorld bpel process ,just prints hello.We cave another parent process,CallHelloWorldComposite that calls Hello process and here we’ll implement the fault policy.
To implement the Error Handler we need fault-policies.xml and fault-bindings.xml file.You can access those files locally from your project folder as well as from MDS or some other places.

Here in this case policies files are there in local project folder and in this case you need to just create those file and no entry in composite.xml is required.
But to access fault policy file from other places you need to add below properties in composite.xml,In this case I added policy at composite level.
image
You can give full path of either directory structure or MDS path in those values.
Now we need to design fault-policies.xml file to capture all kind of faults and actions need to be taken if error occurred.You can add your custom java code to perform any additional task like send email notification or enqueing data into custom error queue.Here is my fault-policies.xml file,

****************************************************************************************
If HelloWorld endpoint is unreachable then  bpelx:remoteFault will happen and as per fault policy it will execure ora-retry action,will try to retry the endpoint 3 times in 2,4,8 seconds intervals and upon subsequent failure it will invoke com.shrik.ErrorHospitalNotification class with send-notification-properties to notify faults to users.
To write your custom java code,create a new project like,
image
in this project we need to import some jars from <OracleMiddlewareHome>/Oracle_SOA1/soa/modules/oracle.soa.bpel_11.1.1 ,oracle.soa.fabric_11.1.1 directory.
For my case here is the code excerpt ,

Now your custom java code should be referenced by weblogic server,For that,
  1. Create a jar file containing all your custom java code.
  2. Place the jar file in <OracleMiddlewareHome>/Oracle_SOA1/soa/modules/oracle.soa.ext_11.1.1 directory.
  3. Make sure ANT/bin is set in your classpath.
  4. and just run ant from that directory and eventually it will generate oracle.soa.ext.jar file.
  5. Start the weblogic server.
Now deploy the HelloWorld and caller process and turn helloworld endpoint off from em.
Now when you run CallHelloWorldComposite then definitely it will throw remote fault and parse your fault policy file.
After retrying it will send notification and go to manual intervention for recovery.
You can extend your Error Handling Framework as per your project need.
