Planning application is giving an error message and I am unable to refresh an application. My HFR reports are not working. I just found one article taking about the MIDDLEWARE_HOME and log locations. I don’t understand this language. Why it is happening with my application. Where do I go and see the details message about the error. I get these kind of questions from our clients and I always try to help them over the phone.  All of those questions made me to write this blog. This blog can be very useful for starter. I will also try to provide you Oracle doc URLs for details on each log. I am going to describe the Hyperion terminology and default log location of commonly used Hyperion family products. We will start with Hyperion terminology.

·         MIDDLEWARE_HOME:- is defined during the installation of components and refers the location of middleware components such as WebLogic, HTTP Server, used Java environments. One server can have more than one EPM_ORACLE_HOME its really depends on server configuration. The default location is MIDDLEWARE_HOME. The default location Oracle\Middleware.

·         EPM_ORACLE_HOME:- contains the support files of EPM system. This resides under the MIDDLEWARE_HOME. The default location is Oracle\Middleware\EPMsystem11R1

·         EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE:- This location is defined during the Hyperion configuration. Most of the EPM/Hyperion components requires deployment location. The default location is Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1.  Users can modify this location during the configuration.

·         WEBLOGIC_DOMAIN_HOME:- most of the EPM components runs on WebLogic. This directory contains server domain for each deployed components. The default name is EPMSystem.

Now we will discusses about the default log location of Hyperion (11.1.2.x) related components. We can differentiates EPM logs in four categories:-
·         EPM Installation Logs
·         EPM Configuration Logs
·         WebLogic Managed Services Logs
·         Application Logs


 Node Manager Start Location
/Oracle/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/server/bin

Opmn  Start Location
Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/opmn/bin

EPM Install/Uninstall logs: - This location contains the EPM installation logs. Any error during installation may be seen here.  The default locating is
Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/diagnostics/logs/install

Running Uninstaller Location (In case you need to re-install components)
/u02/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/uninstall

EPM Configuration Logs: - The default log location
Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1/diagnostics/logs/config

Running Configurator:-

Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1/httpConfig/ohs/diagnostics/logs/OHS/ohs_component
·         access_log and access_log.number:- WebLogic-generated log files for a managed server
·         console~OHS~1.log:- Oracle HTTP Server-generated log file, console output
·         ohs_component.log:- Oracle HTTP Server-generated log file

Common Location for All Diagnostic Logs:-This location contains all the installed components start and stop related logs.   
The default location on UNIX Server is:-
Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1/diagnostics/logs/starter
The default log location on Windows Server is:-
Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\services
