Is it possible to display Oracle form as a region in OAF Page?

Hi
Is it possible to display Oracle form as a region in OAF page something like a master detail relationship such that Master information is displayed in OAF UI but detail information below is displayed in Oracle forms?Is there a tag that lets one do that specific for Form.
One way could be do to embed applet in OAF page which would call and display oracle form but not sure if using javascript/applet in OAF would violate OAF coding standards or create some session management issues.
Regards
Preeti

Thanks for your reply.I have seen an implementation that uses Adf and able to display form on same page as in inlinefraame in .jspx page using inlineFrame tag
<af:inlineFrame inlineStyle="height:700px; width:1380px;"
id="inlineFrm1"
source="#{gofDrillback01.targetURL}"/>
But I guess OAF doesnt have a similar tag to support forms.Thoughts?

Display a form as a portlet in a page

Is it possible to display a form as a portlet in a page and pass it parameters?

It's very much possible to publish the Form as a Portlet. Do the following things:
1) Select the Application in which your Form is residing.
2)In front of your Form name,in the Actions cloumn, Click the link named "Grant Access".
3) In the page that is presented to you you will see a title "Portal Access" below which there is a Check Box named "Publish to Portal".
Check this Box and Click "Apply" and then "Close"
This will create a Portlet of that Form which you can use in your Page
Also I am struggling about passing the parameters from one Form to another. I have posted this in the Forum but the things that they advise to try from the FAQ have not yet worked properly for me as yet. Also if you come across any solution pl. let me know

Weblogic 12c, is it possible to migrate Oracle forms and reports (legacy)

Hi Guys
Is it possible to host Oracle forms & reports based application using Weblogic Server 12c? The documentations do not exclusively confirm the same, other than the ability to use applications in cloud. We are planning to move to web, as we are running into multiple issues with client/server (6i) applications on both Windows 7/8 OS
regards,
raj

Hi Raj,
These are the steps I did for our OAS upgrade in an xterm session :
Installed weblogic 10.3.4 software (replace this with 10.3.[5/6]) (do not create domain,, just install the software) remember to user OFA for your pathing, it will help if you start using more middleware products /u01/oracle/Middleware for example would be the middleware home with wlserver_10.3 beneath that
Install install forms & reports again software only (if you go down the PFRD route, you have to install the 11.1.1.2.0 install and then patch to 11.1.1.4.0 and patch again to 11.1.1.6.0 (install takes 80 minutes, each patch about 50 minutes) for the install you choose all software
setup you environment have your jave home set (use jdk 1.6.0 u24 - 33 ) you might get issues trying to use java 7 (thats a seperate upgrade process)
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin (this would be /u01/oracle/Middleware/<install of binaries path>/bin)
./config.sh &
choose your domain name wisely the default is classic_domain, I changed ours to FormsReports (what ever you chose will appear in your file path and process paths)
admin user and passowrd etc..
for the software config select all and un-select the discoverer and portal option leave everything else (we do deployed realtime compilation from source controlled libaries so we have installed the compilers also)
the config.sh once your get to the configure summary, will create your node manager, weblogic domain, AdminServer, WLS_FORMS and WLS_REPORTS managed servers, once the configure completes and exits you'll be able to http://localhost:7001/console
You'll need the below info to restart the JVM's the installers starts each jvm by the scripts located below (with no nodemanager setup)
your .profile settings will need the PATHS for $ORACLE_HOME/bin, $JAVA_HOME/bin setting as well asn your /usr bin settings, LD_LIBRARY_PATH will need $ORACLE_HOME/lib, $JAVA_HOME/lib
also create aliases for your domain home $domain_dir = /u01/oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/classic_domain under the bin directory will be the startweblogic script and start manageded servers scripts (manual) i'll leave the fun of automation up for you :) there are enough blogs and 3 different ways of doing it, the node manager startup script is in $WLS_HOME/server/bin
to configure your forms.cfg, httpd.conf etc you will find all those in
$mwHOME/instance/config (or whatever you had your instance path set to), the forms.cfg and default.env files are DEEP down the root 7 or 8 sub directories down so make a symlink once you locate it) you can reuse most of your default.env and forms.cfg settings form your 6i install
and good luck
the above is pretty much what i did if you want step by step guides again there are enough blogs you can google to cover installing, configuring, autostartup(node manager setup)
Remember to Patch the bsu (BEA Smart Update with version 3.30 so you can apply CPU weblogic patches, theres one for JAN 2013 for 11.1.1.6.0) weblogic does not use OPatch regardless of what the readme file says :)
Edit: Almost forgot your opmn services, in your profile set ORACLE_INSTANCE=$mwHOME/instance (/u01/oracle/Middleware/instance) then you can run opmnctl (add $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin to path)
opmnctl status
Processes in Instance: PFRD_Inst
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
ias-component | process-type | pid | status
--------------------------------------------------------------+---------
emagent_PFRD_Inst | EMAGENT | 29078 | Alive
RptSvr_hostname_PFRD_Inst | ReportsServerComp~ | 29075 | Alive
webcache1 | WebCache-admin | 29073 | Alive
webcache1 | WebCache | 29074 | Alive
ohs1 | OHS | 29072 | Alive
remember your opmn services look after the apache server and webcache if these aren't running you r will get forms/reports errors, like backend bridge failure if ohs is down, or nothing displayed 404 errors if webcache is down

Is that possible to display the user selection data in the printable page?

Hi All,
I'm going to add a printablepage button on my page.
Here comes a questions.
Is that possible to display the user selection data in the printable page?
For example,
I have a table in the page,with 10 records.User select 5 of them.Can I display these 5 records in the printable page?
Please help.

Hi Yannick,
Thanks a lot for the information. It worked.
The portlet data can be accessible using bindings, but parameter name can be different.
Meanwhile I have got one more scenario, where the Portlet and Task Flow placed in different pages of WCP Application. On change of data in the Portlet the application should navigate to another page where the Task Flow placed and displays selected data.
Basically I can not use any button for navigation. The navigation should happen once I do some action in Portlet.
Is this possible? If yes can you please let me know the steps?
Thanks in advance!

Displaying a blob into an image on OAF Page

Hi everyone,
I read this topic Re: Displaying an Image stored in the Database as BLOB on OA Fwk Page
but is there another way to display a blob image on OAF Page?

Hi,
Yes I am using same code specified by Kali. My requirement is exact same with it.
The debugger does not jump to the servlet class from CO.
By the way the CO and servlets are in the same package.
This is the page source;
<img id="imageIT" name="imageIT" src="ReadPerImage?id=4
{code}
This is the servlet mapping in web.xml;
{code}
   <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>ReadPerImage</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/readperimage</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>
{code}
Thanks.

Is it possible to deploy Oracle forms in a different non Oracle Mid Tier

Hi guys,
This is just a learning question, and for better understanding purposes.
Is it possible for us to deploy Oracle fmb's into non-Oracle Middle tiers and make them running. I am aware that forms are Oracle developed products and are product dependent and runs when deployed on Oracle Application Servers or Weblogic Servers but still has any one managed or is aware to make them run on Non-Oracle Mid Tiers . Please clarify is it possible in any means to transfer these fmb files to non-Oracle product and make them run.
In addition to that, please share your knowledge is it the same to .rdf as well.
Your contribution is appreciated in advance. Please provide supporting links or any if you have.
Thanks,

It is not possible. The Forms runtime is a C Process; that runtime, that interprets FMX files, only exists in Oracle Application Server, so you need to have OAS or Weblogic to run Forms.

Is it possible to launch Oracle Forms from Oracle Discoverer?

If so, please provide documentation on how to do it.

Is it possible to generate oracle forms in pdf format

I have to generate a form in pdf format. Is it possible.
If yes, how to achieve this.
Thank you very much.
Navya.

One round about way to get a pdf screen shot is tick 'print to file' and use a printer which is set up with a postcript driver. This gives a postscript file which can be converted to pdf using 'ghostscript and gsview' (available free from gnu via various sites).

Is it possible to use Oracle Forms 10g with Oracle 10g Lite Database?

Hi All,
We are in process of migrating our forms from 6i to 10g environment.
We have two kinds of applications, one set run on general Oracle 11g database and the other set of forms run at the client machine using Oracle lite database.
We dont have any problem with Forms 6i to connect to Lite database as it allows to connect through ODBC:DSN names. When we try to connect to a lite database (10gR3) from Forms 10g through ODBC/DSN, it's not allowing and throwing the below error.
ORA-03121 : no interface driver connected - function not performed
Can someone tell me if there is something wrong in our approach? Also advise how to use Oracle Lite database with Forms 10G.
Sincerely,
Praveen Manthena

Hi,
I have experience with 6i with lite database 10g. There are two version of lite database one is multi language support and other one in english. There lang problem in connectivity with multi language 10g lite database. I done connectivity with single language connectivity of 6i with 10g lite database. You should try this one with forms 10g.

Is it possible to display multiple hotmail accounts at the sign-in page?

I have two windows hotmail accounts and want to display them both at the sign-in page. There is an addon in internet explorer called "windows live sigin assistant" which does this, but it is not compatable with firefox. Is there a quick fix or can a Firefox addon be made?

A lot depends on how you have designed your application.
- you can configure your sub-vis to have their FP open when running. Click on the subVI FP icon and select VI Properties. Go to Window appearance, select Customize and then Show Front Panel when called. That way, the FP window will remain open during execution.
Of course, I suppose that this is not exactly what you are looking for.
You can use property nodes to open or close programmatically a subVI FP.
In the Application control subpalette, get Open VI reference, use it to call your subVI, wire the FP.Open property node and you should be almost done. See the attached diagram.

Displaying booking form errors on custom redirect web page

I have an event/booking with a registration web form that redirects to a custom web page (not the system page for bookings). If a customer signs up on the form using an email address of someone already registered for the event, their booking is not recorded, but I can't find a way to present the error on the web page that they are redirected to upon submitting.
The workflow notification includes the message, "ERROR: Booking could not be made as this email address is already registered for this booking."
There is a record of the failed attempt on the customer record with the email address that was used, but I need a way to tell the customer that their booking was uncessessful due to the email address used. Placing {module_error} on the web page doesn't seem to do the trick.
Any help is very appreciated.
Jake

I suspected that might be the case. Thank you for confirming. Any idea if the URL parameters applied to the redirected page indicate that there were errors? That would be awesome!

Oracle forms is this possible?!?

hi, all.
I am a java developer and i am not familiar with oracle forms 10g.
Recently i had a project about digital signing of web forms(on java). So the idea was: We have applet that runs in the client browser, it uses the JSObject to collect all input fields and it's values from CUSTOM web form and create xml document, that must be signed. This applet is like a lib.
I must do the same thing with a oracle form.
Is this possible: collect the oracle form's items on the client??? The form is custom i.e. unspecified items and count items.
If this is possible the next step is to verify the signed xml on the server. So how does oracle forms work. Is there a server side. What is the architecture? Could the xml be passed to the server and how the oracle form's items must be accessed on the server(i need them to verify the xml).
I will be glad if you could help me soon.
Excuse me for my bad english :(.
Best regards.

What do you mean? :( As i said i am not very familiar with oracle forms.
Here is simple scenario of usage:
Oracle developer creates a oracle form. In some way i have to deliver for example jar. He adds it to to his project and in some way specifies that that jar signes his form.
The form is in module so i guess i have access to it.
What i learned for now is that there are VBeans that could help to do this(item collection). I found that this beans are graphical components too i.e. we can place awt Componets in them, but may be i don't need to use them. I read that the VBean is on the middle trier, but when i wirte JOptionPane.showMessage(..) it is displayed on the client i can't understand why. I need to collect the items in the form not in the bean.
The question is can i collect in some way the form's items on the client. Oracle form runs in some applet could this help me? Totally confused. The documentation for oracle forms is very unclear for me.
I forgot to say that there are some classes in the oracle forms lib like "RadioButtonItem", TextFieldItem and so on. Are theze coresponding to form items? May do some connection between them?!?

Is it possible to launch a form from an OAF page using OAF Personalization

In R11, the Customer Standard form ARXCUDCI was customized to call a custom block from the Address screen. In R12 the customer standard form has become an OAF page. We have decided to create a custom form for the custom block using Oracle Developer. However we need a mechanism to call this custom form from the Customer Standard OAF page.
My query is if it is possible to call a custom form from an OAF page using OAF personalization only (i.e. without directly customizing the code of the OAF page)
Thanks
Sanjay

Dear Apurba,
I have made some progress.
I have open the Customers OAF Page, queried a customer, selected a site and opened it.
Then chose Personalize "Account Site Address"
There I added a Button on the Header Address level
ID=XXTVL_LASSY_BUTTON
Populated the Additional Text and Prompt properties.
Also set Destination URI=form:SYSADMIN:SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR:STANDARD:FND_FNDMNMNU.
The button is now showing in the address page, and when I click on it it opens the seeded Menu form.
I now have to create the custom form and set Destination URI to the Custom Form.
I am also aware how to add parameters to Destination URI.
But could you let me know how to read the value from a OAF page form field and reference it in Destination URI.
I need the value of PARTY_SITE_ID of the Address OAF page.
Alternatively, the Site Number is displayed on the OAF page. If I can read it that will also do. I can use the Site Number in the custom form rather than PARTY_SITE_ID
Thanks
Sanjay
