Hi,
i Think you are using Oracle 8i.
Check if u have started the Listener. Go to Services and See if
the Listener Service for Oracle is running.
If Yes Then
Did u create the Service name in tnsnames.ora Using the net8
Configuration Utility.
If Yes Then
Did u Give that Service Name while connecting to the Database.
I think the first one is your problem. Check it out and revert
back if anything more is needed....

  • Can not connect from Forms6i to PO8i.

    Hi,
    My PC is a NT named 'oracle'. I have first installed Forms6i in DEFAULT_HOME, c:/orant.
    PO8i is installed as:
    Oracle Home: ora8i
    Full Path: c:\orant\ora8i
    Choose Typical Install
    Global Database Name: ora8i.oracle.master.com.au
    SID: ora8i
    Then I added an entry in c:\orant\net80\admin\tnsnames.ora as:
    test.world
    (DESCRIPTION
    (ADDRESS_LIST
    (ADDRESS
    (PROTOCOL = TCP)
    (Host = 127.0.0.1)
    (Port = 1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ora8i)
    I can connect to PO8i from SQL*Plus using scott/tiger or scott/tiger@ora8i.
    When I tried to connect to PO8i from Forms6i using scott/tiger@test or scott/tiger@ora8i. I got ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name.
    If I use scott/tiger@test from SQL*Plus, I got the same error.
    If I use scott/tiger from Forms6i, I got ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination.
    Help please.

  • How can I call my chart in Forms6i on When Button Press Trigger?

    Hi Friends,
    I have make a chart in Graphic Builder 6i and save on path C:\graph\test.ogd
    Now I want to run this Chart from Form6i on When Button Press trigger.
    I have call my report in forms using this command on When Button Press trigger.
    Run_Product(reports,'C:\Cheema\Qdir_store\reports\pmms\sec_backlog',asynchronous,runtime,filesystem,TO_CHAR(NULL));
    So tell me How can I call my chart in Forms6i?
    Please reply me on urgent.
    Thanks,
    Shahzad

    Just to recall after a long break of couple of years..... Pls check out if not wrong.
    First of all you need to embeed the chart object on your layout window and make it visible = FALSE. This is a design time work. In the button press event, show the chart object by setting the visible property = TRUE.
    Note, i could not paste u the sample code as i don't have forms installation on my PC. The above states is a logic you can apply.

  • How to call a Forms6i file from Forms10g

    Dear all,
    Can any one help me on how to call a x.fmb in FORMS6i version from a y.fmb in FORMS10G version.I used CLIENT_HOST( ) buitin for calling a 6i version x.fmb from 10G version y.fmb,but its not working.I gave this CLIENT_HOST( ) built in in when-button-pressed trigger.when i gave the string that is given as parameter to CLIENT_HOST( ) in command prompt the 6i fmb opens...and similarly i need to open a fmb in FORMS10G verison from FORMS6i version fmb

    Hi,
    Forms 6i modules only run on Forms 6i runtime and Forms 9i modules run on Forms 9i runtime. If you want to bring together two of these module into one application you have to upgrade from Forms 6i to Forms 9i or call it on a separate runtime using a hiost command. If you run it on the web, which Forms 9i runs only, then you use web.show_document() to call the Forms 6i release installed on Oracle Application Server 9.0.1

  • How do I dial a phone number from Forms6i ?? OLE2,DDE??

    How do I dial a phone number from Forms6i ?? OLE2,DDE??
    Is it do-able??
    I have a contact form that has the contacts phone number, etc... I would like to add a button to dial the number which would open the phone line (probably through my modem) and dial the number ... where I would pickup the receiver and wait for connection...
    I need an example or a "How to" link or something where if I take the time I can get it working....
    IF not, is there software to do it?
    Thanks, Bill

    Yes, great! I will check into my modem... but I remember years ago have a c program that I used to send error messages through the modem to my alpha-numeric pager. With that I started with that c program being called from REXX IBM language and it spoke modem language...
    Is there another forum that would handle this type of request? what do you call telephone support? telephony? communication links? ....
    Thanks for the input!

  • ORA-00164 Autonomous and Distributed Transactions in Oracle 8i - Forms6i

    Hi, in Forms6i I'm using Autonomous transactions (insert and update), and I want to use also a database link to make a query in a remote database (Distributed transaction). Even when this request are done in different PL/SQL within Forms6i, I get the error message ORA-00164 Distributed transactions disallowed within autonomous transactions. Is there a way to avoid this error message?
    Thanx

    Hello,
    I had a similar Problem, when I tried to log errormessages while selecting by db-link.
    I use pipes now to send the errormessages. The pipe is read at regular intervals and then I can Insert without using autonomous transactions.
    I hope, this will help you

  • Forms6i - Object Libraries

    Having "inherited" a Forms6i module from a departed developer, I obtain a "FRM-18108 Failed to load the following objects ..." error when opening the form in Forms Builder.
    The file 'fees.olb' referred to by the above error message is actually present in the same Windows directory that the form's own .fmb source is located.
    Please can someone kindly explain a workaround for the above error ?
    Thanks, Andrew.

    More than likely, your FORMS60_PATH registry (or environment) entry is incorrect. Verify that this value is the same directory as the location of the OLB and it should load up fine.

  • D2kwutil running with Forms6i under Windows XP

    Hi
    I'm trying to run D2kwutil.pll version 6.0.6.0 with Forms6i 6.0.8.8.0 under Windows XP and it's not working when I try to call WIN_API_FILE package. I tryed to run the demo form (WAPIDEMO) that I downloaded with the PLL but they don't run either - As a matter of fact, this form don't open.
    Does anyone know what can I do to solve, I mean, to run this PLL under Windows XP - if it is possible?

    How can anyone help if you don't describe the problem? Saying "it doesn't work" is of no value whatsoever.

    Forms Product Management Not to be critical or anything Robin, but publicly berating and humiliating your customers doesn't help anyone either.
    This is especially true when its obvious from the name and the return email address that the person is Brazilian and is at least making the attempt to communicate the issue in English. Would you have understood their problem better if they'd used their native tongue? Obviously something didn't translate well - and it came accross as "its broken".
    And by the way, the customer did describe some of what was wrong... they attempted to open a specific demo form, which came bundled with the PLL file from YOUR company, and it wouldn't even open. They are running XP and Forms 6i, which as far as I last knew was not a certified product combination (which is likely part of the problem).
    A little effort (and a kind word) might go a long way toward finding a solution. And if you're just burnt out or having bad day, try to remember that its not OUR fault.
