Force oracle form server to use 'Arabic Presentation Forms-B' unicode block

Hi everybody
i am using form server 10g and AR8MSWIN1256 as characterset.
it seems that with this charset oracle form server use only 'Arabic presentation Forms-B' part of unicode to display characters.
is there any way to change this and force form server to use 'Arabic presentation Forms-A' and 'Arabic presentation Forms-B'.
i checked in localebuilder and if you set any code out of 'Arabic presentation Forms-B' range in replacement chars glyph is not displayed and in the form it shows wrong display.
Regards
Mostafa

How to access Oracle Mobile Server logs using PL/SQL?

I am starting to use Oracle solutions so I am a complete rookie.
I'm doing a project which requires to present the logs of mobile devices using the Oracle Mobile Server (integrated in Oracle Database Lite).
Does the mobile server have services I could use or do I have to parse the log files?
Thanks in advance for any support given!
Edited by: Hugo Zenha on 15-Apr-2009 07:40

basic details for the sync history is MOBILEASDMIN.C$SYNC_HISTORY. This will give you the client id (name), start and end times, success or failure (and error if fail) plus the total data volumes uploaded and downloaded.
You can get further detail by joining c$sync_his_pub_items on session_id, and this gives the detail of each table uploaded (phase=UPLOAD) in terms of timings and records, and the same for the download. upload tends to be the full set of tables (records=0 for no activity), whilst download is only the active tables, and includes whether a complete refresh was done
You can get information for the MGP process using c$mgp_history and c$mgp_his_clients
As all the repository data is stored in the database, there is a lot of possibly interesting stuff if you look through.
We use SQL and PL/SQL to do reports on the different users having syncs within a period for cross charging and identifying clients having problems

Confused about the 11g R2 Forms Server and using SSL

All,
I just installed the 11g R2 Forms Server software without configuring it.
I then ran the config.sh script to configure it which creates a weblogic server domain.
I'm a bit confused now. If I run opmnctl status command I get the following:
Processes in Instance: frmrep_inst_1
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
ias-component | process-type | pid | status
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
emagent_frmrep_inst_1 | EMAGENT | 28279 | Alive
RptSvr_eiaorapptest_frmrep_ins | ReportsServerComp~ | 28124 | Alive
ohs1 | OHS | 27831 | Alive
This looks to me like there is an Oracle Http Server installed.
Is the Oracle Http Server answering web calls when I run forms or is the Weg Logic Server answering the call?
Also, the Oracle Forms Installation Documentation talks about securing your environment with Oracle Identity Manager but we are not using Oracle Identity Manager. I want to use SSL but I'm not sure how to secure the environment with SSL. Do I need to configure the WebLogic server to use SSL or the OHS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Fusion Middleware 11.1.x does include HTTP Server (OHS) and also requires WLS. Both HTTP Server and WLS are http listeners, amongst other things. So whether WLS handles a request or HTTP Server does it will be entirely up to you and/or the end-user.
OHS has a listener which by default (in FMw) listens for requests on port 8888. On the other hand WLS_FORMS is preconfigured to listen on port 9001.
This means that if your URL looks like the following, WLS_FORMS will directly answer the client:
<blockquote>http://server:9001/forms/frmservlet?form=abc</blockquote>
If the URL looks like the following, the HTTP Server will reply:
<blockquote>http://server:8888/forms/frmservlet?form=abc</blockquote>
The request path when using OHS as the listener to call Oracle Forms would look like this:
<blockquote>CLIENT --- OHS --- WLS_FORMS --- FORMS SERVLET --- FORMS RUNTIME (frmweb.exe) --- DATABASE</blockquote>
The request path when using WLS_FORMS as the listener to call Oracle Forms would look like this:
<blockquote>CLIENT --- WLS_FORMS --- FORMS SERVLET --- FORMS RUNTIME (frmweb.exe) --- DATABASE</blockquote>
Although removing OHS from the path would seem to be better because it is one less server to administer and less system resources consumed, generally it would be argued that the advantages of having it will outweigh the disadvantages.
There are numerous advantages to use OHS in front of WLS, but the most obvious should be that OHS can be set up so that you have one and only one entry point into your FMw environment. In other words, even though for example Forms WLS listens on 9001 and Reports on 9002 and some other app on 9999, all requests can be routed through a single OHS port (e.g. 8888). This gives added security since only one port would need to be open assuming a firewall was in place. This configuration is also helpful when calling one application from another. For example when calling Reports from Forms. If you use OHS, references to other WLS managed servers can be called with a relative reference rather than a fully qualified one.
Regarding whether or not SSL needs to be enabled at any particular point in the path is entirely up to you. You can enable SSL from the client all the way back to the db or any where in between. It is fairly common to see SSL between the client and OHS then no SSL to WLS. But if security is a great concern then you may want to consider SSL from front to back. However, keep in mind that SSL comes at a price. Performance will degrade slightly when SSL is enabled.
Also, OAM (Oracle Access Manager) has nothing to do with SSL. SSL refers to traffic encryption. OAM is for authentication - single sign on.
Consider reviewing the Forms Deployment Guide as well as the other Fusion Middleware documents referenced within it.
<blockquote>http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/index.htm</blockquote>
Finally, and most important, this topic really has nothing to do with Oracle Forms. This is more about how a web server or its environment works.

Configuring Oracle Application Server to use a user friendly url

Hi All,
I am having trouble configuring the apache httpd.conf file within an applicaton server to be able to use user-friendly urls for the infrastructure identity management tools server. I also need this for security reasons as well as hardware reasons - loadbalancing.
At the moment I have a standard setup, whereby the sso application server is using port 7777. I would like the user not to enter the port, but to enter just a standard url, like http://login.<company>.com.au, so that if the user needs to modify oid using the oiddas web application, they can enter something like http://login.<company>.com.au/oiddas/ rather than http://<machine host name>:7777/oiddas/. This would also be used by portal for sso logins.
From the standard installation, Apache was configured as follows:
Port 7777
Listen 7777
ServerName <machine host name>
DocumentRoot <root document folder>
Now reading the documentation from the Oracle Application Server Installation notes for the Http Server, they document how to do this (in the loadbalancer section - this will eventually be used in the hardware setup):
Port 80
Listen 7777
Listen 80
# Virtual Hosts
# This section is mandatory for URLs that are generated by
# the PL/SQL packages of the Oracle Portal and various other components
# These entries dictate that the server should listen on port
# 7777, but will assert that it is using port 80, so that
# self-referential URLs generated specify www.oracle.com:80
# This will create URLs that are valid for the browser since
# the browser does not directly see the host server.oracle.com.
NameVirtualHost <machine ip>:7777
<VirtualHost <nameofmachine>:7777>
ServerName login.<company>.com.au
Port 80
</VirtualHost>
# Since the previous virtual host entry will cause all links
# generated by the Oracle Portal to use port 80, the server.company.com
# server needs to listen on 80 as well since the Parallel Page
# Engine will make connection requests to Port 80 to request the
# portlets.
NameVirtualHost <machine ip>:80
<VirtualHost <nameofmachine>:80>
ServerName login.<company>.com.au
Port 80
<VirtualHost>
Note that I used slightly different names for the url's rather than the oracle names www.oracle.com and server.oracle.com
Now after applying this, I noticed not only could I not go to the oiddas from the original machine name, but also couldnt go there from the new machine name.
Also I was not even able to go to the standard index page whereby you can go to the enterprise manager for the application server, from either names.
The following urls provide me with "The Page Cannot Be Displayed" error message:
http://login.<company>.com.au:7777/
http://<nameofmachine>:7777/
The following urls provide me with "Page Under Construction" error message:
http://login.<company>.com.au/
http://<nameofmachine>/
Could someone please tell me why this is the case, considering I am using the installation procedures Oracle has published within the Oracle Http Server Admistrators Guide (http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/web.1012/b14007/netconf.htm#sthref379).
Cheers
Rodney

Hi Rondey,
Ik think that I can see your probleem.
Just change the following line at your httpd.conf, then restart the component.
First of all if the port is installed with nr. 7777. then the listen process will be on port 7778
the second thing is just try to do the following steps
((Port 80 to Port 7777)))
Listen 7778
%%%% In loadbalancer section %%%%%%
just add the following lines
Listen 80
Listen 8103
Listen 8102
NameVirtualHost *
NameVirtualHost *:8103 or 80
If you want to use this ports (8103 or 8102) for other site (url), then
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName <machine ip> or (host name)
Hear from U,
Regards,
Hamdy

Force oracle 9i installer to use green thread

I want to install Oracle 9i on freebsd but I was unable to launch the installer because of the java runtime envoronnment, for the Oracle 8i installer We had to specify the installer to use green threads but I was unable to find where to specify it to the 9i installer.
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks in advance

<How can I force oracle 9i to use more CPU >
Never seen that before; usually we're trying to get Oracle to use LESS CPU!
Comparing 10g and 9i are difficult and probably an exercise in futility. 10g is a different database and will perform differently. If all of your initialization parameters are identical between instances, the OS is the same version with the same settings, and the hardware is identical then there's not a lot of things to look at. If any of these things are not identical they may or may not be a factor as to why the systems are performing differently.
The lower CPU on the 9i side suggests something else is slower, possibly data access. You could perform traces on both systems to see things like I/O and memory reads.

How can I force a group of checkboxes using imported PDF forms

how can I force a group of checkboxes when using imported PDF forms,
My checkboxes are single fields rather than a group, the form is design using indesign?

The PDF file format doesn't support grouping check-boxes into a multi-choice field. Because of that, FormsCentral just represents them as check boxes.

Configuring oracle management server 9i using create new repository option

hi ,
i am trying to install oracle management server using the the option "create new repository "on a system on which oracle database is already installed .after installing oracle management server "configuration assistant appears .the second option is to select a database repository .
first of all can i select the database that was prevouisly installed on my system
or do i need to create a new database before installing oracle management server. but as i did not install any database for oracle management server before i am trying to select the database that was previuosly installed on the system but i gave me a tns error that it could not resolve the service name .after that i noticed that the oms listerner was up and registered . i am trying to stop this listener and start the database listerner so that it may not give me this error.can some one help me out configuring oracle management server on a system creating a new repository

I suggest you to create a different database for the OMS repository. This database can be used for other tools that may require a repository, such as recovery manager.
On the connectivity issue, I suggest you to verify your listener is up and running and it doesn't need to have the instance registered, as of course, it is a new instance. Make sure it is started. For additional troubleshooting on the connectivity issue, you may post the specific tns-12XXX error message displayed.

Help: FORMS SERVER cannot connect to database (forms patch9)

Hi:
I've installed oracle 9i database and oracle 9ias 1.0.2.2.2a.
I configured FormsServlet and it's working very well as i suceed my test in http://machina.domain/servlet/oracle.forms.servlet.ListenerServlet!
The problem is that i cannot connect to the database and i got the error ORA-12203 TNS: Unable to connect to destination!
I've changed jserv.properties as recommended in 9ias 10222 release notes by commenting the wrapper.env=ORACLE_HOME in OJSP because it conflicts with forms server home.
I've read all about this, and i still cannot connect to the database.
I'm using a forms servlet configuration with IE JVM.
If anyone can help me... i apreciate it!
By the way in my jserv.properties forms server config i have:
# Oracle Forms and Reports Servers
wrapper.classpath=C:\ORACLE\806\forms60\java\f60srv.jar
wrapper.classpath=C:\ORACLE\806\forms60\java
If i have this the Test native method call (JNI) fails, but forms server keeps running. The error is:
Calling RunformProcess.nInitLib()...
RunformProcess.nInitLib() failed:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/forms/servlet/RunformProcess
Your server configuration needs correcting. Please refer to the Forms documentation for details
If i comment the f60srv.jar as showed here i suceed the test
# Oracle Forms and Reports Servers
# wrapper.classpath=C:\ORACLE\806\forms60\java\f60srv.jar
wrapper.classpath=C:\ORACLE\806\forms60\java
So... anyone help ?

PS: I can't understand why oracle keep sending huge amounts of releases of products and everytime they send a new release, that new release keeps coming with new bugs.

Hi:
This just connection problem just happen if i use formsservlet http connect mode. if i use normal HTTP (without servlet)connect mode with Jinitiator (1.1.8.16) i successfully connect to database (oracle 9i).
Anyone there using 9ias 1.0.2.2.2a with forms server servlet and oracle database 9i ?
thankx

How to get HTML form name for use in Portal Form's custom layout?

I want to add a date selector to a Portal Form but the NAME attribute of the FORM HTML tag is dynamic.
To add a calendar icon that opens a date selector, I add the following tags to the custom layout after the date form field:
<img src="/images/calendar.gif" height="16" width="16" border="0">
The <form field name> is static, but the <form name> appears to be dynamic (e.g. WWVM3115, WWVM3116, WWVM3117, ...).
The custom layout uses substitution variables for the form fields and labels. Is there a substitution variable for the form name?

Here's the javascript function someone recommended several years ago (on an oracle portal forum) that I've used successfully to reference fields in non-portlet portal forms:
function findItem(pFieldName) {
var vFormElements = document.forms[0].elements;
for(var i = 0; i < vFormElements.length; i++) {
if (vFormElements.name.indexOf("."+pFieldName+".") > -1) return i;
document.write(i);
return -1;
You can then reference the portal form field name using the column/field name only:
document.forms[0].elements[(findItem('COLUMN_NAME_HERE'))]

Oracle Weblogic Server Installation using the user "oracle"

Hi,
I installed two instances of weblogic server for FMW 11g on linux x86-64. One was with the user oracle and other was with the user orawls, both belonging to the group oinstall. I had installed Admin Server and created managed servers soa_server1 and bam_server1. I have issues in starting up the instance with oracle user and the instance with the orawls user starts fine. I have a separate thread going on for that issue.
I just wanted to know if there were any existing known issues when installing the WLS as oracle user ?
Cheers,

I have no issues with the oracle user. I do it all the time.

Hello, Graham
Quote: "Victor, thanks for sharing those images. Were the watermarks done from Aperture, or did you use a 3rd party application (like iWatermark)? I have just acquired a copy of Aperture and I am finding my way round tentatively."
Adding a watermark is done from within Aperture and is a Preset.
EDIT: "You can use Photoshop or Illustrator to" Make the watermark a transparent, RGB, .psd file not grayscale. Make a few like 300ppi, 600ppi, 1000ppi (experiment) etc. Now in Aperture's Preferences and also the Aperture Presets select the box "Watermark" and point (browse) Aperture to your watermark. Finally select the position of the watermark like center, lower left etc. to preselect the position the watermark.
One little gotcha is that if you re-edit your watermark you must repoint Aperture to it to see the changes. Other than this it is an awesome feature and a time saver.
love & peace,
