Problems with reinstalling SOA [ERROR]:INST-07290

OIM OAM SOA implementation

I had to install OIM OAM and SOA a few times before I got it right. The box also had OID implemented on it with several thousand users. I could not afford to purge the OID datastore every time I had to reinstalled the OIM. Down the way, I had trouble with installing more than one installations of SOA in the same middleware home. 

The error stated as below :


[VALIDATION] [ERROR]:INST-07290: Specified Middleware home already has a Oracle SOA Suite 11g home. Only one Oracle SOA Suite 11g home location can reside under a Middleware home.
[VALIDATION] [SUGGESTION]:Provide a different Middleware home location
installation Failed. Exiting installation due to data validation failure.

 I found an easy workaround to get past the problem.

I had to backup the inventory.xml file in the global inventory location and comment the REFHOME LOC lines that point to the corrupted install as seen in the screenshot below :

 Then after purging the domain applications and after correcting the file $MW_HOME/domain-registry.xml, I would be all set to reinstall OIM OAM and SOA allover once again.
