Need information about Oracle Forms & Reports server installation

Hello Friends,
First of all I am very new user for oracle forums, So please ignore if I posted wrong place.
We are using Oracle Database 10g and Oracle forms & Reports server 6i version.
We just purchased oracle forms & reports (currently known as a Oracle Fusion middleware) license. As per my knowledge latest version doesn't support Oracle 10g database.
My question is can somebody give me Oracle Database 10g supported Forms & Reports version?
We are planning to upgrade.
Help would be really appreciated.
Thanks & Regards.

Thanks a lot for prompt response.
I get my answer from your certification matrix. I appreciate your response.
Now second question arise that We are using currently Database version of 10.2.0.1.0.
And in a certification matrix shows supported version Oracle 10.2.0.4+.
Now I am bit confused that currently working database supports or not?
Still i am trying to install on My window 2008 R2 with IIS 7.0.
Let me check what happens.
Again Thanks a lot to ccortez and PaulM for your quick response and help.

How to configure oracle 6i report server run time component with application server

we got oracle 6i report server for developing the web based reports for our undergoing product. we r succesed in developing the web based reports using oracle 6i report server.But we r facing problems while deploying the product with oracle reports at clients place,why because the client does not have the oracle 6i report server. To solve this problem we have to configure the oracle 6i report server run time component with application server at client side , but we are unable to configure this component(that is CGI handler).

You can run multiple instances of Reports Server in 6i.
In tnsnames.ora, for each server, have a different name and each listening to different port.
For example,
server1.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1949))
server2.world = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = myhost.mydomain.com)(Port = 1950))
Also, if you want to know about Reports Server Clustering, you may refer to "Publishing Reports" document on OTN:

How to add a new font into Report Builder and Oracle Forms/Reports Server?

Hi,
I've searched the forum and can't find this being discussed.
My developers run Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2 on their XP laptops.
Their reports run (in production) on Oracle Forms/Reports Server 10.1.2.0.2.
This server runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
They've got a client who wants reports using the "Garamond Western" font.
So....how do I get this font onto the developer's Report Builder laptops, and onto the Oracle Forms/Reports Server?
I've moved various 'Garamond' fonts into C:\WINDOWS\FONTS on both the laptops and the server, but neither seem to recognize it.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks.
This answers 1/2 of my question.
The developer can now use Report Builder on his laptop, with the new fonts.
But when he moves this new Report to the Oracle Application Server/Forms-Reports Server, it fails to use the new fonts.
The Oracle App Server/Forms-Report Server is Version 10.1.2.0.2. It runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
I have installed the exact same fonts on this server, into C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
I have used REGEDIT to change REPORTS_PATH....and placed C:\WINDOWS\Fonts; as the first value in this field.
I have then stopped and restarted the Forms-Reports Server.

Please Help me out to solve this issue.

I am assuming you are using 9iR2:
1. start your infrastructure database
2. start oid
nohup oidmon start
nohup oidctl server=oidldapd configset=0 instance=1 start
3. check to see if things seem to be working properly in the infrastructure before starting the midtier
dcmctl getstate -v (this will give you the status of the infrastructure components). If this comes back in error, you will need to solve this first.

Oracle 11i Reports Server Problem

When i tried to exploer the Service
Financials Intelligence - Vision Operations (USA)
in Oracle Applications 11i Server. It gives out the following error
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the Reports Server.
Can anyone tell me what may be the cause for this error.
Earliest responses appreciated.
Thnks,
Sundar.

I have checked the reports server . It was not running. When i tried to restart the reports server service. It gives the following error message
Windows could not start the Oracle Report Server [Rep_60_vis] on Local Computer. For more information, review the system event log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, Contact the service vendor , and refer to service-specific error code 186.
BTW, Can you please let me know the file name of the Reports Server script so that i can have a look at it.

How to send a oracle application report automatically to a specific e-mail

hi!!!!!
how to automatically send a mail once the oracle application report is generated ??
It should happen automatically...
Do we have to use any function for that??? or is there any other way of doing it???

You can use utl_smtp package in the after report trigger to send mail after the report run is completed.
for example look at my post
Re: Sending concurrent program output as an Email to a distribution list

Oracle 10g Reports Server - problem authenticating against DB

I have a problem with Oracle 10g Reports server authenticating against an Oracle RDBMS.
When I try to run reports, an authentication form screen is presented, with the password field empty (the URL in explorer that loads this page contains the username and DB instance, but is missing the password) and the following error message:
REP-51018: Need database user authentication
When the password is entered into the empty field in the form and submitted, another 2 authentication errors are given.
REP-51018: Need database user authentication
REP-12545: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
When the URL in the browser location field is manually altered to include the DB password, the reports are authenticated fine.
Any ideas which config file I should be looking in?
Any pointers would, of course, be much appreciated.
thanks,
Brian

Hello, i finally have discovered what was happening, it has to be with the way FreeBSD passes the password field. By default FreeBSD passes the password field with a '*' while Oracle Linux (and Red Hat clones) expect an 'x' to look into shadow maps (Linux uses the '*' character in the password file to not allow login to that user).
To solve it the password field served by the NIS server must be substituted, which is accomplished with nsswitch.conf and adding a line to the /etc/password file on the NIS Client, so the final files will look this way:
# nsswitch.conf (compat directive allows us to use the '+' sintaxis in /etc/passwd file)
passwd files compat
# /etc/passwd (just add at the end of file)
+:x:::::

SCOM Reporting Server Installation Give Error The specified SQL Server instance is not valid

Hi All,
I am trying to install SCOM 2012 SP1 Reporting Server on a Windows Server 2012 running SQL Server 2012 SP1. The SQL Server also host instance for SCCM 2012 SP1 named SCCM, and not in clustered environment.
For SCOM 2012 SP1, I choose SQL instance named SCOM. At first, I successfully installed SCCM 2012 SP1 Reporting Services. I have SSRS configured to use port 80 for both SCCM and SCOM instance, and not using SSL, with IP Address settings: All assigned. SQL
Server Agent services on both instances are configured to started automatically. I could access http://scsqlserver/reports_SCCM and http://scsqlserver/reporserver_SCCM, but could not for http://scsqlserver/reports_SCOM and http://scsqlserver/reporserver_SCOM.

I may continue Reporting Server installation that give no error mentioned above, if I choose SSRS instance named SCCM, but it is not supported for both SCCM and SCOM 2012 using same SSRS instance. Personal certificate for ConfigMgr SQL Server Authentication
on SQL Server has been exported and deleted. Restarting SQL Server also has been done, but no luck.
Many thanks for your help.

Hello,
I'm afraid you must use a dedicated instance of SQL Server for each site(SCOM/SCCM). Some similar issues were disscussed on this forum:
SCCM and SCOM - SQL Server

SCOM, SCCM, SQL on same server?

Font mapping in Oracle 6i Report Server

Dear All,
I am creating a report which is required to display the Palatino Linotype font in the PDF format by using the Report Builder in MS Windows XP.
After deploy to Oracle 6i report server which is running in Solaris, I was facing a problem to generate a PDF report in Palatino font. After a few tries to configure the uifont.ali I'm still failed to get the PDF report to display the font correctly.
Below is the setting that I had been done, that is under the PDF section I had added in the mapping.
[ PDF ]
"Palatino Linotype" = palatino
#"Times New Roman" = Times
#"Courier New" = Courier
#"Times Roman" = Times
Could anyone help on this. Thanks in Advanced.

The servlet runs on the server and only call the Reports 6i CGI. It isn't a true servlet in Reports 6i. I configured my servers to run reports 6i as a servlet and it was terrible. It crashed several times. After opening a tar with Oracle, I found that running Reports 6i as a servlet is a waste of time because it still uses the CGI to run the Report.
Do a search on for a topic of "Configuring Apache Web Server".
"The recommended way to use a web client in Reports 6i is cgi since 6i Report servlet essentially calls the c-code only inside and does not offer a true servlet based architectural benefit. 9iAS Rel-2 offers a true Servlet based architecture and offers much more performance and scalability gains for the user plus with all the new Reports 9i features."

Oracle Applications Report Mod & User Exits...

OK, here is an incredibly stupid question for y'all. I want to customize an existing Oracle Application report (gasp!). I've brought the .rdf file down to my PC and made my changes. I can run the report OK if I ftp it back to UNIX and run it through Oracle Applications...but I can't run it on my PC. It can't find the user exits.
Where can I find these user exits, and what must I do with them so I can run the report on my PC (from Report Builder)?
Thank you for any and all assistance!

You need to get and install the applicaions software (but not the DB objects) for your PC (if it's available - depends on the OS), so that the apps user-exits are available.
Otherwise - stick to what you're doing. The advantage of this is that you see exactly how the report is going to look - there are porting issues between unix and win32 (eg fonts). This way you're testing on the target platform.
You could try posting your question to an appsnet discussion forum (http://appsnet.oracle.com) and see what other applications users do.
fyi, a lot of the user exits for apps are going away now that they're moving to Reports 6i as part of apps 11i. This is possible as we have included a lot of the functionality that they originally wrote as a user-exit, native in the product.
