Hi Srinivas,
I would like to know more about Function library import under Admin section . Please point me to relevant source on.
1. how to import the library file
2. what should be the value in repository
3. Can we undo the import if we did a mistake?
4. Once the file is imported will all the functions be added to Functions table in OFB Database
5. Can I start using the my imported functions while building components?

Hi Srinivas,
I recently installed Flow builder 13.3 on my linux server. When I try to login, i get this error : “.( While trying to lookup ‘jdbc.KwdtDS’ didn’t find subcontext ‘jdbc’. Resolved ”) “.
Any pointers appreciated.
Thanks,
Kripa
Thank you for reaching out to us, this looks to be some database issue, please make sure that database is up and running. If not you may have to connect with some DBA and get the database up.
So were you able to access or login in Oracle Flow Builder at least once? or is this your first time?
