Can Oracle Forms compiled in 32-bit run in 64 bit without recompile ?

My customer has a development machine running on HP-UX 10.2 and a production machine running on HP-UX 11.0 installed with 9IAS form server. Can Oracle Developer 6i be installed on the HP-UX 10.2 32-bit machine and the oracle forms compiled in a 32-bit machine be run on a HP-UX 64-bit machine ?
Can somebody help ?

Boy, this was a long time ago and not intended to reply to this particular question but for sharing my experience with 6i client/server development on linux 32bit and running (client/server deployment) on 64bit linux. I don't believe there is a 64bit 6i forms developer - it is 32 bit, so development must be on 32 bit and when you run on 64bit, then you will have library (missing) problems. My solution was to create a custom runtime which included all the related system libraries from the 32 bit for the client/server. This forms 6i custom runtime for client/server also included the patchset 18 and the 10g R2 instant client for sqlplus (to support xquery). All the forms development modules, make files, graphics, docs, etc was stripped out and then it became a lean client/server runtime for Linux (for both 32bit and 64bit). This custom runtime for client/server is technically not supported by Oracle and the 6i is close to its obsolescence (2008) - but it has been tested against 8,8.1.7.4, 9.2.0.8, 10g (R1 and R2) and XE and works like a champ. This does NOT work for 6i web deployment.

Oracle Forms - Compilation error due to attached libraries

Hi,
I am builing forms using Oracle Forms 10g and almost everytime I recompile the form, I have to delete some attached libraries and add them again. This happens a lot of times and I don't know why. These attached libraires have not been changed.
Can anyone help me with this issue please? It's very anoying :(
Thanks.
Regards,
Amado

That should be correct. If you attached the libraries without a path, modified your FORMS_PATH to include the path that the libraries are sitting in, then the form should pick them up.
I would:
1. Verify that FORMS_PATH has the correct path. Make sure the '\' are pointing in the right direction and that the path is separated from the other paths by a semicolon.
2. Make sure you changed the correct FORMS_PATH. You might have multiple ORACLE_HOMEs so you need to make sure the ORACLE_HOME you are using is the one that has FORMS_PATH set up in it.
3. After FORMS_PATH is correct you shouldn't have to reattach the libraries, but try it again without including the path.
I read CraigBs reply below and it made me think of something else you might want to look at:
4. Check all the directories that are listed in your FORMS_PATH and see if there are older versions of the libraries in one of the paths that shouldn't be there and remove the unneccessary ones. For example, if your FORMS_PATH is set to "C:\Work\11g;C:\Oracle11g\Middleware\as_1\forms;C:\Oracle11g\Middleware\asinst_1\FormsComponent\forms;" then there are three directories that forms looks through everytime it runs. In this case, you would check all three directories and see if there were older libraries in there that needed to be removed because they are overwriting the one that you want to be picked up.

Oracle forms compilation error

Hello all,
I have issue in Oracle forms while compile.
While compile the form, the browser is blank... and in start OC4J Instance below error appearing (while start the form server its initialized, if i compile the form below lines appearing in the start OC4J Instance window)
FormsServlet init:
configfileName: ....../forms/server/formsweb.cfg
testMode: Fales
Thanks and Regards,
Muthu

Muthu,
Please always give your Forms, Java and Client OS version. This information is almost always needed!
What is your Forms, Java and Client OS versions?
While compile the form, the browser is blank...It sounds like you are trying to run your form from the Forms Builder. If this is true, you must configure your Forms installation to enable this.
What configuration steps have you completed? Take a look at How to Configure Forms Builder to run forms locally to make sure you have completed all the necessary steps.
Hope this helps,
Craig...

Can Oracle forms be used for offline screens

provide offline screens.Is it possible to provide these using Forms on client sites who are not connected to the net.
The files produced by the Forms are to be sent remotely to a server at a fixed time using some middleware
Basically,can we have Oracle forms running
without Oracle Forms server?

hey there!
i really am looking for the solution of this question myself if anybody know the solution plz let me know
thanx in advance

Can Oracle Forms access SAP R/3's Oracle 9i Database?

I have an SAP R/3 with an Oracle 9i R2 database.
I would like to access the contents of say KNA1 in Oracle 9i.
Has any one try to integrate SAP R/3 using an Oracle Forms, say formaple, to maintain or just search/enquiry customer details in the table called KNA1?
Any discussion is welcome.

If it's an oracle database and you have a username and password that is able to connect to the database, then yes, you can connect Oracle forms to it.
Beware that you don't breach any support agreements with SAP, though or alter any data within the system that might cause corruption!
Cheers,

Labview 64-bit running with 32-bit addons

I ran into memory problem loading som data files, and I tried a workaround by installing Labview 64-bit, but found that the add-ons was not installed with it.
Now I needed to use sound and vibrations toolkit, so (being maybe a little too creative) I copied that toolkit over to the 64-bit Labview folder and everything seems to run.
I can load the files and do my data analysis with no errors.
Now the problem is that I don't really get how a 32-bit add-on can access the memory from the 64-bit core Labview. Does anyone have any ideas on why its running and why I don't get a memory access error.
The results looks ok, but I don’t really trust them, due to the above mentioned problem in accessing memory between 32-bit and 64-bit.
regards
Henrik

Hi Henrik.
When using LabVIEW 32-bit on a 64-bit machine, all your VIs would run through the Windows-on-Windows emulation layer (WOW64) and this is also why we still have memory limitations on a 64-bit OS.
When you are using LabVIEW 64-bit, and using a 32-bit toolkit, what's actually happening is the 64-bit LabVIEW kernel is recompiling the 32-bit VI into a 64-bit VI. Doing this changes the inherent memory characteristics and performance of the Sound and Vibration VI's (and all 32-bit VIs, for that matter). The newly converted 64-bit VI's, then, are being executed in the native 64-bit LabVIEW kernel.
However, I would strongly advise you to install the toolkit the normal way. In the following document, you can see, that the Sound and Vibration Toolkit / Measurement Suite is in fact supported by a 64-bit version of LabVIEW.
National Instruments Product Compatibility for Microsoft Windows 7
After you install LabVIEW, you need to reinstall all your add-ons and drivers in order for that toolkit / driver to work with LabVIEW. When we install toolkits / driver, we only install support for the LabVIEW versions installed at that time.
I hope this helps.

Can Oracle Form Builder 10g open forms created with Developer 11g?

Hi,
Two different groups of developers developed forms in both Forms versions 10g and 11g. There will be call_forms between both versions and both will run under the same portal. Production is 10g. Is it possible to open 11g forms in 10g Form Builder? Suggestion/ solutions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Victor

It is likely you will run into issues, so I would say best not to. I have done it a couple of times by accident during migration of Forms 10g to 11g. You can still open and view the 11g forms code in the Forms 10g builder, but will likely see some objects appear as incorrect types. Saving the 11g form in such a state from the 10g Forms Builder may result in corruption.

How can I tell if my firefox is running in 64 bit? (I went to play something on netflix and it said I needed to restart in 32 bit mode, now I want to go back to 64 bit mode)

I went to play something on netflix and it said I needed to restart in 32 bit mode, so I clicked restart in 32 bit mode and all it did was exit firefox and reload everything. At that point im guessing its in 32 bit mode now because I can now play movies on netflix. I wanna know how i can test to see if its in 32 bit or 64 bit ; and also how to go back to 64 bit.

You're right ''co-rel''. Apologies for the error ''pacific-ninja''. There's an illustration of it on this forum: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1122762

Can I delete my OSX partition when running win7 via bootcamp, without breaking anything?

Helpful answers only please this isn't a Win vs. Mac discussion
I'm running Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro, which I installed via bootcamp and haven't used OSX since...
Can I just delete the partition to which OSX is installed and use Windows 7 only or could that break my system?
Thanks,
Robin

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can do what you want to do, because the EFI partition remains untouched. Windows comes with Disk Management (you can find it digging into Control Panel), that allows you to do what you want to do. See > http://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/cc770943.aspx
I do not recommend you to delete OS X in case you need to install firmware updates, but instead what you can do is to give OS X the minimum space possible and give near everything to Windows. You can do this in OS X with Paragon Camptune.

You cannot use Internet Explorer on Windows Vista to run Web Forms.
<p>But you CAN run web forms through Netscape or Firefox. But you first need to disable Java in the browser.
<p>And to run OC4J on Vista, you need to set its compatibility mode to Windows XP.

Running oracle forms and reports on the web

can any one help me out....
I have oracle 9i database as back end and oracle forms & reports 6i which was running on client server architecture. Now i want to deploy all my forms on web so that it runs on internet explorer . For all these things to happen what all upgradation i need to do.... . Do i need to upgrade my back end database and with what i have to replace my oracle forms 6i. pls tell in detail. I am using windows XP as my operating system and my disk space is 160GB and RAM is 1GB.

The process of upgrading Forms to the web can be found here: otn.oracle.com/formsupgrade.
You will also need to confirm the version you are upgrading to supports the database version - if you have support from Oracle you can check this out on metalink.oracle.com (and navigate to certifications).
Of course, the documentation is also a good place to start - otn.oracle.com/products/forms and navigate to documentation.

Hi,
May I know why you need to start admin server in both the physically separated server. If you want to achieve HA solution for admin server, then do the clustering in such a way that Admin server will run in Active-Passive mode.
You can refer the same document that you have mentioned.

Mixing Java with Oracle Forms 11g

What's going on is I wrote a program for work that allows the user to upload a document from their computer onto the database and then download it back later. Now I have to take that and integrate it into a button in Oracle Forms because our actual program runs from Forms. I imported the jar into the form and wrote a button with code I found online (modified slightly for my own use of course):
DECLARE
     jo ora_java.jobject;
     rv varchar(100);
     ex ora_java.jobject;
BEGIN
     JO := Upload.new;
     RV := Upload.startUploadPage(JO);
EXCEPTION
     WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
          message('Unable to load Upload page, ' || ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
     WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
          ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
          message('Java Error');
END;
but when I tried to compile it I got:
Error 306 at line 8, column 8
wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'STARTUPLOADPAGE'
the java method that is supposed to be called here is:
public static String StartUploadPage() {
new Upload();
return Upload.StartUploadPage();
I did get from someone that apparently as written my code wont work anyway because apparently the jar importer in Forms doesnt transfer UI (ie Java Swing) and that in order to get the UI to transfer I would have to write a JavaBean on top of my code... but 1 I have no clue what a JavaBean is and the research I have done so far about it has just confused me more... and 2 I'm not sure what that has to do with the error considering that the method that is supposed to be being called by the line that threw the error doesn't have any JFrames or Java Swing of any kind connected to it... there is a tiny bit of Swing in the class to open up the first form that has the buttons for upload and download in it but that is all. I have 4 classes in that jar... 3 are the various Java Swing pages and have the absolute minimum logic in them possible... and the 4th one is the one that starts everything going, has the main class, and any serious logic that needs to be done the needed values are passed to that class and that class does all the work... that 4th class is the one that is being called in the PL/SQL. If it isnt any trouble could I maybe get a little help from someone on:
1. How to write a JavaBean to allow my program to work the way it is supposed to in Forms and
2. Why I am getting this error and how to make it go away
