Oracle forms 6i compatibility with 11g

Hi,
We are in the process of migrating our Oracle to version 11g, due to a product upgrade.
The current system is on Oracle 9i and holds Oracle forms developed on Oracle 6i, will this form still be usable on Oracle 11g after upgrade? or do we also need to upgrade the Oracle developer suite to 11g?
If the developer Suite is also required to be upgraded to 11g, then is it required that the coding syntax/conventions within the existing forms will change?
I am not a forms resource and trying my hands on an upgrade directly. Please assist
Regards,
Hemanth

  • Problems with Apple Preview filled forms and compatibility with Windows?

    Anyone else having problems with Apple Preview filled out forms and compatibility with Microsoft Windows after Lion?
    I've had it happen recently with two different people, where the data I had entered on a fillable PDF form could not be seen by Microsoft Windows, but I saw my data just fine.
    I don't know what version of Adobe Acrobat they were running.
    Thanks,
    kt

    You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
    It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

  • Can we run oracle Forms 5 Application with 10G in Client/Server?

    Hi All,
    Can we run oracle Forms 5 Application with 10G in Client/Server
    Mode?
    Regards
    Gaurav

    In theory you can run it 2 tier - which means that you have the client (the machine the user is sitting at) being the same machine in which the forms application server is running. So yes. But specifically, we don't support a client server runtime anymore. 6i was the last version.
    With 10g you will be running through a browser.

  • Oracle Discoverer 4i (portal db - oracle 8i) connectivity issue with 11g database

    Hi All
    We have oracle discoverer 4i with portal db (oracle 8i).
    We connect to the external databases using db links in the portal db and the reports will use the db link to retrieve the data from views in the external databases.
    External databases we were connecting is oracle 10g version and now we have upgraded these databases to 11g version.
    Now i have a created a new db link to this 11g database and i have created a new EUL in portal to connect to this 11g database.
    But when i try to create a report using the discoverer from this new EUL after login to the discoverer we get a "cannot connect to database" error.
    We have all the necesscary privilege to the user and the new database link works perfectly fine. (when we try to query directly using SQL plus from portal database using this db link the query works perfectly fine).
    Im not sure if this is a compatibility issue in connecting from oracle disc 4i to a 11g database.
    Can any one advise if this is the case and if there is any workaround for this?
    Regards,
    Raj

    Are you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?

  • Oracle Forms & Reports 6i using 11g database

    Hello All,
    We are in the process of upgrading our Oracle db to 11g, yet use client/server configuration for Oracle Forms & Reports. We were able to make this scenario work.
    But, encountering one problem. When we invoke a/any report from the application's report menu it is prompting for login again ( that wasn't happening before ).
    Is this a known issue? Are ther any work-a-rounds for this issue, if so, please suggest.

  • Forms 10g Builder with 11g Database Release 1 - Connectivity Problems

    Hello All,
    I am trying to connect 11g Database (Version 11.1.0.7.0 mounted on Linux) from my Oracle Forms 10g Builder 10.1.2.0.2 in my client PC Windodws XP. But its just hanging and doesnt connects at all.
    Strange is that from the same Oracle home i am able to connect to same 11g user through the reports builder 10g and
    , sqlplusw and sqlplus from 10g home.
    But i am not able to connect to 11g R1 database from my Forms Builder alone. Why is this? Can the PROs get me out of this problem please.
    Thanks in advance.

    First, using 10.1.2.0 against 11.x is not recommended. You should at least be using 10.1.2.3 if you plan to work with 11.x. Further, there is a known issue which causes connection, compilation, and some sql execution to run significantly slowly. This issue has been corrected with a patch and new switch. If you have an active Support contact, I would recommend creating a Service Request in order to get the latest information.

  • Oracle Forms loading slower with Sun JRE in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i

    Hi,
    After Deploying Sun JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i (Note 290807.1) we find that Oracle Forms are loading slower than using Jinitiator.
    Also the PDF reports are opening in a minimized fashion. Meaning the PDF reports are opening correctly in new browser window (as expected) but is minimized.
    Customer is not willing to go live with Sun JRE due to these issues.
    Plz advice is there is any additional configuration I need to do.
    Rgds,
    Thiru

    When the JRE was installed/configured on the workstations was the jar cache placed on a LAN drive instead of the local drive? We have experienced poor performance with both the JRE and Jinitiator when the Workstation Sysadmins configured the jar cache to be located on a LAN drive. Also is the size of the jar cache on the workstation sufficient to hold all of your required jar files. It could be downloading the jar files all the time.
    Overall our performance with the JRE is comparible to the Jinitiator.
    Sorry I have not experienced the problem that you are having with you pdf reports so I can't provide any comments on it.

  • Oracle forms 10g 32bit with Oracle 10g database on windows itanium for x64

    Hi.....
    Currently we are planning to have this configuration
    1. Oracle10g RAC on HP rx6600 with windows itanium for x64 architecture
    2. Oracle Application Server (32-bit) on windows 2003 (forms & reports services)
    3. Application migrated from 6i to 10g
    I have to things to ask about?
    1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with _(32-bit)_ 10g forms to a x64_ platform without problems ?
    2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i +(32-bit)+ to 10g RAC on x64_ platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?

    1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with (32-bit) 10g forms to a x64 platform without problems ?I did this also. A 32bit Oracle Form(10gR2) on Linux and a 64 bit (10gR2) database. And this works without a problem. Since you didn't mentioned your versions I would suggest you look for your combination if it is certified combination.
    2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i (32-bit) to 10g RAC on x64 platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?I don't know if the combination is certified. But regarding your character set, you have a character set setting (NLS_LANG, DEVELOPER_LANG, etc.. ) for your developer 6i, your database has it's own character set. Depending on those setting a conversion of the character set will take place between your developer 6i and the database, when you get and put data to the database. But like I said I don't know if developer 6i and 10g is still a supported combination.

  • Link between Oracle Forms(6i/9ids) with CRM on Demand

    Can I connect oracle forms 6i or 9ids with CRM On Demand through web link or any other way? if yes how is it possible?

    How you link Forms applications to other applications usually depends on what interface that 3rd party application exposes to Forms. For example, if functionality is exposed via a web service then Forms can quite easily call a web service. But the answer depends on how CRM exposes its functionality.
