Installing SOA 10.1.3.1 on a Windows 2008 x64 machine SP1 or SP2, but the OWSM Configuration Assistant fails with the following :

    BUILD FAILED

Cause

Internal BUG 9267853 - CERT: 10.1.3.1 SOA CONFIG FAILS ON WINDOWS 7

When you install AS with OC4J 10.1.3.1 into Windows 7, ompnctl stop will always fail with above message. Windows 7 adds the IPV6 ip address when trying to stop the OC4J instance.
Solution

Please try this workaround

Steps:

    Unzip soa_windows_x86_101310_disk1.zip
    Edit oc4j_opmn_windows.xml found in \stage\Components\oracle.as.j2ee.top\10.1.3.1.0\1\DataFiles\opmn.1.2.jar
    Add parameter "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" to the stop-parameters options.
    <category id="stop-parameters">
    <data id="java-options"
    value="Djava.security.policy=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home/config/java2.policy
    -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dhttp.webdir.enable=false
    -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true"/>
    Run the install.
