Running forms 10g from a discoverer ias installation. Is it possible?

Hi, I want to run an application based on forms 10g using an iAS 10.1.2 that is actually been used to run Discoverer. In the iAS directory structure I can't find the "forms" folder or any of the configuration files (formsweb.cfg, default.env, Registry.dat, etc). Anyway, I could find OC4J_BI_Forms, and when I run "opmnctl status" that service is up and running (Alive).
In order to install and run my forms application:
- Do I have to install the "forms server" component to this iAS?, or may I use the current OC4J_BI_Forms to run other forms (and libraries)?
- Or maybe, do I have to install the forms enabled iAS in a different ORACLE_HOME to be able to run my forms?
I guess the version and releases numbers are not completely relevant. All I know about versions is the installed iAS whose release is 10.1.2.
Thanks in advance

You can easily do this using pack & unpack.
Change the machines in the managed servers where SOA is running. Pack the domain with -managed option. Unpack the domain in the new machine. Start the soa server now. It will start using the resources in the new machine.
Eg:
Currently Machine A has Admin Server, One WLS Managed Server & One SOA Server. You want to shift SOA server to machine B. Change the machine of SOA server using Admin Console. Pack the domain in Machine A. It will create a template jar. Copy the jar file to Machine B. Unpack it there.
Make sure, you have same MW_HOME & ORACLE_HOME directory structure in both Machine A & B.
My answers are based on that you are on 11gR1.

Run form 10g from another computer

Hi all!
I created form on my computer and run success.Now,I want to run my form on another computer
How I can run form another computer?
Thanks all!

In general you have an url to call a form from any computer. This looks like
http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?<parameters>The parameters specify which acions should be taken, as you define the form to start, the user, ...
To "hide" these parameters, you can specify a "named section" (identified by a line like [thenameofthesection]) in the formsweb.cfg where all the parameters are defined, and give only the name of the configuration you want to start, like
http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=thenameofthesection

To run Forms 10g on Windows Mode

Is there possibility to run Forms 10g on Windows mode, not on Web ?
Thanks.

If you want to test your forms locally there is an OC4J component with the Developer Suite which can be started so you can run your Forms on your local station. This is no client/server but you run your webforms local.

Hi
. Even if I get the patch from Oracle, next time when I will be with other issues in Win 7 for Form 10g, they will still tell me that Form 10g is not certified with Win 7. Am I right?Not at all...
as previously mentioned ; If you have access to My Oracle Support, take a look at this document: How to Install Developer Suite 10.1.2.3 on Windows Vista (Doc ID 559067.1) it is the same handling issue as Windows 7
Pls check the following table for compatibility issues

Error running forms 10g on OC4J

Hi everyone,
I installed Oracle DB 10g and Developer Suite 10g (did not install Ap. Server) at the same machine (different homes), everything seemed to be OK, I use sqlplus with no problems, then I did this:
1) Created a table with just one field
2) Created a test form with Forms 10g using wizard with just that table and that field (I connect to oracle with no problems on forms builder)
3) Started OC4J Instance (but i have to leave the command prompt opened to run well)
4) When I run the form, it opens Internet explorer then shows Oracle application server forms service, but with this message ORA-12560 TNS: Protocol Adapter error, I click OK and ask me for a user and password, but the same error!!
IS there any configuration that I have to do on OC4J?? Why I can connect to oracle from sqlplus, enterprise manager and so, but it fails running forms, specifically when open OC4J???
Thanks in advance

Is it .../forms/registry.dat or .../forms/registry/Registry.dat?
Let's go back to this post. I asked you to try a URL to your form in a browser window, not Forms Builder. The 2nd part of your answer, you said...
But if the OC4J instance is NOT running I have
message says FRM-92120: Registry file
http://walaa:8889/forms/java/oracle/forms/registry.dat
is missing."If your OC4J is not running and you try a URL from a browser, you should be getting a "Cannot find server or DNS Error", not an Oracle error. The only way I could reproduce your error above was to run from Forms Builder with OC4J started and having manually renamed my Registry.dat.
If you didn't edit your Registry.dat (and possible hose it), then someting just went wrong during the install. You could check you installation log. Mine is at C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2006-03-11_03-50-02PM.log and has a single line containing "Registry.dat" showing the target location.
Is this Forms10g R2 on Windows? You could uninstall ODS and reinstall in probably 30 mins to an hour. Maybe you want to consider that.

Run form 10g

I use forms 10g R2. When I run a form, it does not show the full size in the browser. Whats the problem? is their any tips?

I used http://localhost:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=myform.fmx&separateframe=true , where I used my form name instead of myform. However, it shows error age 'FRM-40010: can not read form..'.
When I open form builder and run from there, it does not show any form name in the URL. It just shows as follows:
http://localhost:8889/forms/frmservlet
MOreover, it does not show in full screen.
But when I add my form name, it shows the error.

Did you save the form before running it, in the context of the builder? there is a known bug in this area.

Running forms 10g on PC with Forms 6i

I am currently running Oracle Developer Suite 6i (6.0.8.23.2) 32 bit etc. on Windows XP on my PC.
I now want to load Forms 10g etc. on the same PC. Is this possible? Are there going to be any conflicts with two dirfferent versions on one PC?
Edited by: 781424 on 03-Oct-2011 01:45

Hello,
It is possible. (I have the version 6i, 9.0.2 , 9.0.4 , 10gR2 and 11gR1 on the same PC)
The only point to take care of is the variable PATH.
You can create some BAT files that will set correctly the PATH for each version

hi
please modify formsweb.cfg and create u r own config.something like this.
Example Named Configuration Section
# Example 1: configuration to run forms in a separate browser window with
# "generic" look and feel (include "config=sepwin" in the URL)
# You may define your own specific, named configurations (sets of parameters)
# by adding special sections as illustrated in the following examples.
# Note that you need only specify the parameters you want to change. The

Running Solaris 11 from a USB drive with persistent changes - possible?

I am wanting to use Solaris 11 as the basis of a NAS for home use; the hardware is a HP N40L Microserver populated with 5 HDDs. As all of these HDDs will be used for data storage in a zpool configuration, I have no more physical space (without further hacks) inside the case for an additional OS drive. Therefore, I am wondering if it is possible to run Solaris 11 from a fast USB flash drive. I know there is a live USB image, but AFAIK, any configuration changes made when running this will not remain after a reboot - is this correct? And if so, is there any way to make the changes persistent?
The only discussion I could find on this subject is this thread from a couple of years ago: https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2235078 - but I don't think the guy got a definitive answer.

Running the important rpool on USB stick is not my favorite configuration. I would recommend reducing your data pool down to 4 devices and putting your root pool on the 5th disk. People ask about this in the datacenter and I wrote a best practice for it, which is not to use a USB stick for rpool, here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E29007/zfspools-4.html#gentextid-12349
Your data is important, but the root pool is very important for keeping your data available. In the datacenter, we also worried that rack vibration might wiggle the stick right out of the drive. For home use, I've heard about pets jumping on boxes and disconnecting disk cables. Sounds paranoid, but I've seen it/heard it all.
There is no reason why you can't put rpool on a USB stick, some operations might not be easy (see Dave's post), but I don't think its the best choice for optimal data availability.
Thanks, Cindy

RUN form FMX from the client side

Hii
I have installed oracle forms developer 10g, i have designed simple form and i run it from the local mechine it worked, and i want to try to connect it from the client side, it didn't work
Can you help on this please

No you don't need to have an iAS to test this
Start your OC4J instance on your host
copy the file default.env to test.env (located in <oracle_home>/forms/server)
in test.env modify your forms_path to the pathe where your form is residing.
modify your formsweb.cfg file (located in <oracle_home>/forms/server)
add a named config at the end of the file (copy the example and modify to your needs)
looking like
[test]
envfile=test.env
form=test.fmx
userid=.../..@... (or you can leave this out and then you get an authentication pop up)
leave the other stuff default
now call on your other client
htpp://<your machine where oc4j is running>:8889/forms/frmservlet?config=test
if you still have troubles with your fields check wheter you have other java clients installed (I experienced also problems when other JVM's were installed with certain Jinitiator)
If so you can bypass this by making JRE the standard instead of Jinitiator
put in your named config
IE=native
and change
baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljinit.htm
baseHTMLie=webutiljpi.htm
into
baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljpi.htm
baseHTMLie=webutiljpi.htm
Now you will load sun's JRE instead of Jinit
Hope this helps

Running Forms 10g Locally

Hi,
can some body show me please how can i configurate Froms 10g tu run locally, on my machine instead of run it in the central Forms server .
that will help to save time on my unit tests.
thanks.

i copied this from a posting here, search and you may find.... but this is what you need to do to get forms running locally on your pc.
Steps
1. The Builder's Runtime setting must be configured correctly. Open the Builder and from the menu select:
Edit > Preferences > Runtime
2. Click on the button labeled "Reset to Default".
3. In the box labeled "Web Browser Location", verify that the complete path to the preferred browser is entered. For example if you will be using MS Internet Explorer the entry will likely appear something like this:
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE
4. Click on OK
5. An HTTP Listener needs to be running. Oracle provide stand-alone OC4J to fill this requirement. Be sure that OC4J is running. A shortcut is available under the developer start menu. This will open a DOS window. This window MUST remain open.
6. If you have followed the above steps, you should now be able to click on the green traffic light in the Builder and run a form. If you have not already installed jinitiator, you will be prompted to install.
Make sure your tnsnames.ora file is up to date with the company standard file

Running jdev 10g from server

I have a strange (or not so strange) question. My application providers want to make jdev 10g available via a novell application launcher meaning that instead of installing, they want to run it form the server -> one install image -> need to set jdev_user_dir for everyone uniquely. Has anyone tried this? Is there a document on how or why one should or should not do this? I did some searches, but maybe I'm not searching on the right keywords. I assumed that installs to the developers workstations would be best, but what do I know? :-)

Check out the JDeveloper install guide:
