Oracle 10g forms (Not running)

Members,
I have been using orcale 9i forms and currently I have uninstalled the Oracle 9i forms. I installed Oracle 10g forms and everything seems alright. When I ran my application, It did not display properly. I uninstalled the java initiator of 9i. I did run the application again, It downloaded and installed the J initiator. When I ran the application again, the same message appeared. Here is a sample of the message.

Thanksyour problem seems to be related with the browser and the JInitiator version.
What is the exact Forms version you are working right now???
Browser ?? JInitiator or JRE??
It can't be Forms 10g R2 and you have forms90.You mentioned Forms 10g in your first post.
Are you running in seperate frame?? if not try it

Not running 10g form in any browser

windows server 2003
oracle 10g form
I already set web browser location with internet explorer exe file , but when I run the form it open I.E but don't run form in it and exit I.E automatically.
please help.
I am new in 10g.

Make sure you have the database connect identifier set in tnsnames.ora file, you can do it easily using the Net Configuration Assistant. You can find it in All Programs %ORACLE_HOME%/Configuration and Migration Tools/Net Configuration Assistant and add a local net service name.
Or manually by editting your tnsnames.ora file and add en antry like this:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <hostname>)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = <SID>)
)where hostname = machine name of the database server or IP address and SID = database name

Can we Run 10g Forms & Reports without Application Server

Currently We are using form 5 and reports 3.5
we are willing to upgrade .
we are told that we can upgrade only to 10g developer suit
and for that Application Server is must
Our requirement is for LAN based application only
Do we have to go-in for application Server
DOes the 10g forms and 10g reports have Form server /report server which can help us to run application using Browser but without IAS
CK

Chaand,
for production environments you must run Forms and Reports through Oracle Application Server as there no longer is a client-server runtime. For development puposes tehre is a HTTP server in Oracle Developer Suite that is used to run both servers.

How to run oralce 10g forms in runtime

hi all
I have an application developed in oracle 10g forms , wheni fun it opens in browser , how can i restrict my fmx to run in browser , as i dont want to run it in browser like forms 6i .
Regards
nawaz

Hi nawaz
From the menu design time:
1- select >Edit>Preferences>select the Runtime tab
and close to the field of web browser location - >
Select the Browse button to locate the IE location on ur hard-disk.
2- Run ur main form >Select Favorites >Select add to Favorites.
Then ,u have a link 2 ur application , u can drag and drop it in ur desk top.
or use the existing link.
or if u wanna run a specific form locally then, u have to run the Start OC4J Instance to be intiallized ,and when finished working on that form run the End OC4J Instance to be terminated.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Abdetu..

plzzzz help.....

hi
1 How to Display Iconic Images Using Forms 9.0.x/ 10.x?
When running an Oracle Forms 9i/10g application the icon files used must be in a web enabled
format such as JPG or GIF (GIF is the default format) (This is unlike older versions of forms running in client-server mode when the file format is .ico.)
Icon image files can either be retrieved by Forms as individual files on the filesystem or from a Java Archive (JAR file).
If an application uses lots of icon images it is recommended that they are stored in a JAR file to reduce the number of HTTP round trips.
Reference:Note 232413.1 How to Deploy Iconic Images via a JAR File in Forms 9i/10g?
The example below details steps to configure iconic images as individual gif or jpeg files.
It is a first approach recommended for initial testing and understanding.
Example:
========
This document has been written for use with both Windows and UNIX operating systems: Windows will use the "\" character to delimit directories and UNIX uses the "/" character. Any other differences are noted in the document.
1) Determine the physical location of the icons on your web server. For this example, assume that the icons are stored in D:\Myfiles\icons.
2) Create the virtual directory in the forms90.conf file that point to the location of your Forms 9i/10g icons. This file is located in:
$ORACLE_HOME\forms90\server\forms90.conf
To define a virtual directory forms90/icons, use the following syntax:
# Virtual path for ICONS (used to show icons in a form ) AliasMatch ^/forms90/icons/(..*) "D:\Myfiles/icons/$1"
Below is an example of the forms90.conf after it has been modified to include the /forms90/icons virtual directory.
# Virtual path mapping for Forms Java jar and class files (codebase) AliasMatch ^/forms90/java/(..*) "E:\IASR2\APP/forms90/java/$1" # Virtual path for JInitiator downloadable executable and download page AliasMatch ^/forms90/jinitiator/(..*) "E:\IASR2\APP/jinit/$1" # Virtual path for runform.htm (used to run a form for testing purposes) AliasMatch ^/forms90/html/(..*) "E:\IASR2\APP/tools/web90/html/$1"
# Virtual path for ICONS (used to show icons in a form ) AliasMatch ^/forms90/icons/(..*) "D:\Myfiles/icons/$1"
( For 10g use instead of "forms90" -> "forms")
3) Direct forms to use the /forms90/icons or /forms/icons virtual directory when running on the web by modifying the Registry.dat file in the $ORACLE_HOME\forms90\java\oracle\forms\registry or $ORACLE_HOME\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry
directory. Note that for UNIX, both the path name and file name are case sensitive. You must specify "Registry.dat".
Modify the default.icons.iconpath entry as follows: default.icons.iconpath=http:///forms90/icons/ or default.icons.iconpath=http:///forms/icons/
If the URL used to bring up forms on the web is: http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms90/f90servlet or http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms/frmservlet
Then the entry required for the Registry.dat will be: default.icons.iconpath=http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms90/icons or default.icons.iconpath=http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms/icons default.icons.iconextension=gif
4) Now use EM Website to: a) Restart the OC4J-BI-Forms Instance b) Restart the BI-FORMS HTTP Server Instance.
5) Verify that the virtual directory has been defined properly and that the icons can be viewed in a browser.
Assuming that exeqry.gif exists in the D:\Myfiles\icons directory, the following URL should show the icon:
http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms90/icons/exeqry.gif or http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms/icons/exeqry.gif
6) Check the form : http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms90/f90servlet?form=D:\Testcases\F90\ICON_CHECK_IASR2.fmx or http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms/frmservlet?form=D:\Testcases\F10g\ICON_CHECK_IASR2.fmx
CHECKLISTS
=============
Icons do not appear in the browser using the URL:
o Verify that you are using the correct machine name and port for the OC4J_BI_Forms object.
o Check the virtual directory name to make sure that there are no typographical errors. o Check for typographical errors in the forms90.conf or forms.
conf for the virtual directory. o Check the name of the icon on the file system. If the file is saved as Exeqry.gif, then it will not be found using the URL http://abc.oracle.com:7778/forms90/ Close all your browser sessions and open a new browser window.
Execute the URL to bring up from the Form Builder runtime or from the browser.
( For 10G use "forms" instead of "forms90")USEFUL REFERENCES:==================

Load balancing 10g forms - Connection from new browser window not supported

Load balancing 10g forms - Connection from new browser window not supported
We're experimenting with using webcache to load balance between multiple applications servers running OC4J forms processes.
We currently have one machine with infrastructure and mid-tier (BI & Forms) installed, which is being used for the webcache functionality, this is load balancing between 2 other servers each of which just have the mid-tier (BI & Forms) installation
In order to get this to work, I had to follow the instructions in the Forms deployment guide : http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_11/web.1012/b14032/tuning.htm#sthref707
The main gist of this is that you need to set the following in the orion-web.xml file in order that the sessions are maintained:
<session-tracking
cookies="enabled">
</session-tracking>
This all works fine in most cases.
The problem I am having is if I do one of the following on the client machine:
1) From IE6 / IE7 run a copy of a forms application. Then open a new window using the "New Window" menu option, and attempt to run another forms application.
2) In IE7 or Firefox 2.0 open a copy of the forms application, and then open a new tab and try and open another forms application.
If I try either of these I get a FRM-92101 error, and the following is displayed in the java console:
oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException: Connection from new browser window not supported
From trawling various forums (including metalink and otn) it looks like a problem with the way coockies are handled.
Unfortunately the usual workaround is to ensure that the session tracking option in the orion-web.xml file is disabled.
The problem is that I need this enabled in order for the load balancing to work.
Does anyone know of any other workarounds or patches that might help resolve this?
We're using Application server 10.1.2.0.2 running on windows 2003 servers.

You were right. Carriage returns were stopping it from working (the document is laid out over separate lines, so I assumed it would make no difference...).
I've now managed to get it so the forms at least run, but they are all being run in the forms OC4J instance on the same machine as the OHS.
Has anyone actually managed to get this to work, or am I doing something wrong?
I did wonder if using an OHS instance on a machine with no forms installation would make any difference?
I had raised a support call via metalink on this subject, but they eventually came to the conclusion that the only way to do this is with a hardware load balancer (Despite several documents suggesting that webcache is the way to go (including the forms deployment manual)).
I'm at the point now of giving up and writing some custom scripts to do the job instead...

Images are not displaying in the forms run time.

Hello All,
I am using forms 10.1.2.3.0 and database 11g in the windows XP platform.
I am not able to see the images in the buttons at the run time. I have done the following setup for the same but still I am not able to display images in the buttons. I have gone through all the previous threads for the same. Can any body suggest where I am doing the wrong?
1) Created one JAR file with the below command putting all the gif files in a folder (All the GIF files are in lower case). Kept this jar file in the forms/java folder. (When I am extracting the JAR file getting all the gif files and one more folder META-INF).
rem====
jar cvf icon.jar *.gif
rem=====
2) Modified the formsweb.cfg file as follows.
imageBase=codeBase
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,icon.jar
3) In the buttons property Iconic = Yes and Iconicfile name = icon_print (gif file name).
4) Modified the Registry.dat file in the path "forms\java\oracle\forms\registry\Registry.dat" as follows.
default.icons.iconpath=forms/java
default.icons.iconextension=gif
Start the OC4J instance, and run the application, but still not able to see the images in the buttons. After I modified the regedit file I am able to see the images in the design time but not in the run time.
Any thing more needed to do the same. All the suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
SUN

Create a virtual directory icons in your /forms/server/forms.conf file
In the registry.dat file change
change

How to change 10g forms url ?

Hello,
I developed forms in 10g forms developer and I can call my forms from web browser with default url like http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=myform.
Is there anyway the change that url like http://myform.com or something?
Thank you for your replies :)

Well, the first thing to understand is that when you call the Forms Servlet (frmservlet) you are calling a java application and not static content like an html page. So, changing the URL isn't exactly as easy as it would be for a simple web page. On the other hand, hiding the the real URL or redirecting to the proper url can be done fairly easily.
All of these assume you are using Application Server.
OPTION 1 - Hide The URL +(more information can be found in MyOracleSupport note 300326.1)+
<blockquote>There are several ways in which you can hide the real url, but probably the easiest will be to use an IFRAME. The only potential problem with this is that some security software or browser security settings may prevent this from working. So, here's what you do:
1. Using an HTML or text editor, create a static html file with the following code. Replace my Forms url with your own.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>My Application</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET ROWS="100%,*" FRAMEBORDER=NO FRAMESPACING=0 BORDER=0>
<FRAME SRC="http://someServer:port/forms/frmervlet?config=myconfg" NAME="redir_frame">
</FRAMESET>
<NOFRAMES>
Sorry, your browser does not support frames. Click <A HREF="http://someServer:port/forms/frmervlet?config=myconfg" TARGET=_top>here</A>
</NOFRAMES>
<BODY>

</BODY>
</HTML>2. In the Oracle home from where OHS is running, find the htdocs directory within the OHS (apache) directories.
3. Rename "index.html", "index.html_original"
4. Copy your html file to this directory and name it "index.html"
It is possible that the html file being used is not "index.html". To determine the correct page, you may need to review your httpd.conf file as this is where the default page is set. Look for DirectoryIndex</blockquote>
OPTION 2 - Redirect To The Proper URL
<blockquote>1. Find and open httpd.conf
2. Within the file, locate this: <Directory />
3. Just below this line add the following. Use your own Forms url
RedirectMatch ^/$ /forms/frmservlet?config=somewhere</blockquote>
