2 different compilations of FORMS 6i

Hello,
We have 2 environment here :
- An environment of TEST ( ORACLE APPLICATION 11i ) for developing and testing ( A )
- An environment of PRODUCTION ( ORACLE APPLICATION 11i ) for production. ( B )
Actually, the 2 environment are the same ( DBA says ).
I've got a FORM 6i ( a copy of a standard FORM but customized ), when I compile this form in ( A ) the fmx file is the same ( size ... ) as if I compile the form in ( B ), but the form doesn't work : "exception "WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE" in the 2 environment.
If I take the old fmx file which used to work in ( A ) before DBA restore ( A ) using ( B ), this work in the 2 environments.
Something has changed in ( B ), after restore ( A ) has changed too but FORMS doesn't work anymore.
Someone has an idea ?
Thanks a lot.
Romeo.

You will have to debug the form and find out what is causing the exception.
You could start by giving the complete error message.

Error while compiling the form

Hi Everyone,
Im getting the following error, while trying to compile the form.
Compilation error on POST-QUERY trigger on XXX_CONTRACT_INFO data block:
PL/SQL ERROR 0 at line 0, column 0
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name.
The instance which Im using is UP and running fine.
I am using some database links to access data from a different schema, but even those db links are working fine.
I am completly strucked up with this issue. Please help me.
Thank you.
Rams.

Thanks for the reply.
Im not running the form in local database and more over if the problem is with only tnsnames, then the form should completly through an error. But in this case, the form is compiling all its objects, but its unable to compile only one block.

Compiler crash Forms 6i

Hi,
I have a problem with Forms developer 6i. I have a very big form 2.3 MB, and then I added some extra lines of code ( and there are no errors in them ), and when I try to recompile the fmb now it crashes the whole forms developer program !
I think I hit maximum compilesize for fmb's or something - but then again can that really be true ?
Have anyone experienced similar problems ? and does a solution exist.
PS - I tried to add the lines again from the functioning fmb and same thing happened again and again at roughly the same point - around 2.3 MB
Kind regards
Bo Normann

First of all, the last two posts are implying that the runform session is crashing. Please note that the original post is talking about the Forms Builder crashing.
I couldn't understand the logic behind 'Finding and Replacing' a semicolon with a semicolon through out the form.If you compile a form, you will notice in the Object Navigator, that each program unit has a '+' by them that you can click and see more options. If you open the source of the program unit, at the bottom of the editor window it says Not Modified . . . Sucessfully Compiled. If you save the form, close it, and re-open it, the program unit still has this compiled indicator.
If you change anything in the program editor, the compiled indicator disappears. If you save the form without compiling, and reopen it, it is still NOT compiled.
All you are doing by changing semicolon to semicolon is forcing every trigger and procedure to become uncompiled. And then if you save the form in this state and check the fmb size, you will notice a much smaller fmb size. You will notice when you open such a form in the Builder, the open is faster, and the first compile is slower (just like doing a shift-ctrl-K compile-all). On the other hand, a form saved with all compiled code opens slower, but first compile is fast. Apparently when Oracle opens a pre-compiled fmb, it tries to verify the compiled program units.
However, these compiled program units cause problems -- we have had problems using pre-compiled fmb's transported to different environments failing in stored-procedure calls and other places. Doing a compile-all (shift-ctrl-K) clears the problem.
The bottom line is this: Storing compiled code inside an fmb does no good. Oracle has been doing it from the beginning of client/server forms, along with storing a copy of the color palette, too. In BOTH situations, this has caused issues with forms, especially when moved from one environment to another. In my workplace, we make SURE we always store production forms WITHOUT the compiled code. They transport quicker due to smaller file size, and they compile cleaner in the users environments.

How to compile all forms in a directoy at time?

Hi friends, thank for your replies for the previous questions.
Now
How to compile all form modules located in a directory
at a time? usually what I know is opening form one by one
and compile it. But I want to compile all forms and create
executable files at a time.
Is project Builder helpfule to achive this??
thanks
madhu

Yes, his file is useful -- it should run on Windows XP. You need to copy the above text into a file using a standard text editor, something like Notepad. To run it, you open a Cmd.exe DOS window on your pc, change directory (CD) to the folder where your forms are, and enter the command script file name.

How to display different Time Statement forms in ITS service PZ04

Hi all,
I am working on a underlyinge R/3 4.7 system and are working with standalone ITS and ESS 50.4. I am posting this question to find out if any of you has experience with my problem.
The business wishes to use the ITS transation PZ04 standard and wish to be able to display different Time Statement forms in the transaction through customized variants for the report(RPTEDT00) that the PZ04 transaction executes. In the IMG it is posted that one variant has to be created called HRESS_TEDT00 and this works, but restricts the PZ04 transaction to always be called with this variant and therebye the same Time Statement form every time.
I then by debugging found that the underlying ABAP code processed from SAP standard has a variable VARIANT that is hardcode to = HRESS_TEDT00.
The question is: Is there anyway to setup the PZ04 transaction so that it can be dynamic decided which variant should be used, f.ex. from persons subarea from infotype 0001?
Looking forward to here if anybody can help.
Regards,
Allan Brauer

hi allan,
cud u plz help me how to sort out this problem actually in mu company the same scenario is here need to be display pe51 form instead of standard hrforms.....
plz help me how will i replace this "hrforms with pe51"..

How to compile a Form in Unix

Dear all
I am using forms 10G.
I have a form and I want to compile it in Unix .
Can you please tell me the solution step by step .
I was reading the old blogs here ,and tried the same but did not get the solution .
Please help me .

for %%f IN (*.fmb) do frmcmp.sh userid=userid/password@DB1 module=%%f batch=yes module_type=form compile_all=yes window_state=minimize
Is this comand will work ?On Windows yes, on Unix no, that's the Windows syntax.
How can I give the fmb name instread of "compile_all=yes " ?"compile_all=yes" doesn't mean compile all forms, but compile all Pl/Sql code within the form. On Linux I use something like the following :. $HOME/.bash_profile
export Filename=$1
if [ "$Filename" ]
then
Filename=`echo $Filename | cut -f1 -d"."`
else
Filename=*
fi
for FRM in $Filename.fmb
do
echo $FRM
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/frmcmp.sh $FRM username/password@DB module_type=form 1>$FRM.log 2>&1
doneIf you execute the script with a form name as argument, only that form will be compiled, otherwise all forms within the directory will be compiled.

Problem in compiling my form

hi gurus,
I installed Forms 10 release 1 and compiled a form and place in my apps server. It worked perfectly.
Later today, I wanted to use the webutil features(not in this form) and installed Forms 10g Release 2 with webutil. and compiled my forms. It compiled perfectly in Windows.
But when I moved to apps server and compiled it there, it gives me Buss error(coredump). I don't what is it pertaining to.
Please help me on this regard.

is your apps server 10gR1? and did you perform your compile on your form which worked previously also with 10gR2 compiler?
If so, the 10gR2 Forms Compiler migrated your fmb file to 10gR2, and the 10gR1 Compiler won't be able to compile it for my mind...
But I don't know how to migrate a form back to 10gR1, but probably you should upgrade your apps server to 10gR2 too?
regards

Form Compiles in Forms Builder but not Unix?

I have a form that compiles fine in Forms Builder (Version 6.0.8.11.3). When trying to compile the form on a Solaris Middleware Server it fails and gives several errors similar to the following:
Compiling WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger on SFTREGS data block...
Compilation error on WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger on SFTREGS data block:
PL/SQL ERROR 201 at line 4, column 37
identifier 'SATURN.SFTREGS' must be declared
PL/SQL ERROR 0 at line 4, column 4
SQL Statement ignored
I realize that these same errors in Forms Builder if I have not connected to the database (Version 9.2.0.4.0) before compiling so I'm guessing that there is some environment variable set incorrectly on the middleware server. I'm quite new to Unix and am not sure what variables I should be looking at...any thoughts?

We have tried both commands as indicated. We get the same errors that were in the original post as outlined below;

and I can find this file under

Can you help me to resolve it? Thanks.

Hi...
How are you compiling the form in linux? are you using frmcmp (or f90genm for Forms 9i) executable? If so, try using frmcmp.sh script (its also available in $ORACLE_HOME/bin).
If it does not work either, try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to $ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib32
HTH.

Error in Compiling a form on Unix.

I not getting changes made to an existing form to compile in Unix. I have tried using the command line as well as compiling in Forms Builder.
Please help.
Thanks.

Instead of calling the command from the windows shell command interface, I was able to call the compilier from Data Services; this problem is now resolved.
