BAM - Error

Hi,

BAM Start up page reports a error "You are Unable to connect to services........",when you do any new inatallation on the machien where the BAM is running.
When you go and check for the services,all the services except the Active Data cache services will be running.

when you try to start the ADC services it throws a error like "The Oracle Active Data cache service on Local Computer started and stoppped.some services stop automatically if they have no work to do ....."

The main reason for this is,ADC expects the path of the BAM client to be the first path in the PATH enviromental variable.
for ex: " C:\ORACLE_BAM10g\ClientForBAM\bin;" this should be the first path in the PATH variable.

If any new installation happens on the system,those path gets added to the PATH variable,so the client path no longer remains the first path this is when ADC throws a error.
So after any new installtion,ensure that the client BAM path is the first path in PATH variable.

Happy learning
