Migrate character-mode forms to Dev2000

I have migrated a 7.3 database to 8i on an IBM RS-6000, AIX vs.
4.3. We will be running developer 2000 and the newest version
of reports off of a windows 95 box. What do we need to do to
get the old character-mode forms converted to the GUI that
Dev2000 produces now? Will they just port over? Do I need to
compile them into a repository? (I have experience with
Designer2000 but not developer). Thanks for any help you can
give me.

Viewing Icons in Oracle Forms on the Web - any solutions?

Has anyone had problems viewing icons when deploying forms on the web? In client server mode it used to be .ico files. I recently converted our files to .gif and added a register UI_ICON to recognize the icon images when running the forms. I still cannot get the images to appear (icons on buttons). Am I missing something? I am using Oracle Forms 6i Release 2 on Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2.2a) platform.

Read about registry.dat in this document:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/forms9icstowebmigration.pdf
page 18.

Running reports from forms on the web

On forms and reports 6i we used the following code to run reports from forms.
We need to do the same on 9i forms and reports, we are running into problems.
Any help will be appreciated.
PROCEDURE web (inFileName VARCHAR2,
inRecordGroup RECORDGROUP) IS
outVirtualPath VARCHAR2(200) := '/forms90/f90servlet?p_url=/reports/rwservlet?'; outServer VARCHAR2(200) := 'server=rep_ora-app-4';

outDesType VARCHAR2(200) := 'DESTYPE=CACHE';
outDesFormat VARCHAR2(200) := 'DESFORMAT=PDF'; outUser VARCHAR2(2000);
outCount INTEGER;
error we are getting.

I've installed Forms Server in another Oracle home called 'dev6i'. I've the f60web.jar and 11 other .jar files in \dev6i\forms60\java directory. I've installed the forms server successfully (I can say this because I was able to run the test form successfully couple of times, until I installed reports server in the same Oracle home. Then it started giving this message in the java console). I've also installed Webdblistener. My reports test page is displaying correctly though. Any ideas what might have happened??
Thanks
VL.

How to run others application in Oracle Forms on the web version?

Pang,
guess that you want to start client side programs from Forms on the Web. There is a sample on OTN (host bean) that allow you to acces sthe client and start executables.

Oracle 9i Application Server+Oracle 8i EE+ Forms on the web Very urgent

Hi,
I have correctly install Oracle 9i Application Server and Oracle 8i Entreprise Edition on Windows 2000. What are the following steps to follow in order to run a form on the web. example: test.fmx?
Thanks in advance.
null

If your web server is working and the forms server is running type:
http://ip addr:port/dev60html/runform.htm
You need to put the ip address or name of your server in and the port number apache is running on (leave blank if this is 80).
This gives you the Oracle Forms start screen.

DEV 6.0 team : Help req while running forms on the WEB

I am using Windows NT 4.0 with Service pack 3 running Oracle8
8.0.5 with Apps Server 4.0.7 and Dev6.0. I have been able to run
Forms on the web and with Jinitiator and with out Jinitiator but
there are a few problems
1 ) The Tigger " When Mouse Click" does not fires on the web for
a display item.
2) when i set the CLASSPATH=E:\orant\forms60\java for forms the
tree in OAS 4.0.7 stops showing and if i remove it from there
then i am not able to run the forms for web through the forms
designer
3) the performnce is very slow how to improve the performance on
Web with jinitiator.
an early response would be appreciated

I can only speculate on some of your issues, but maybe they
might give you some insight on possible alternatives.
Mouse-Click on Display Item
The display item does not, by definition allow modification.
Have you tried changing the item to text and then disabling the
INSERT and UPDATE properties to NO? I have tried using display
items in the past, resulting in a grayed-out box on the web. To
get around this, I made the above changes and created a mouse
trigger to jump to another field when someone tried to mouse-
click on it.
Changing CLASSPATH on OAS 4.0.7
I had the same results. The OAS installation sets the CLASSPATH
to what it needs and changing it has the results you describe.
I am curious, however, are you able to view the form from the
Developer Forms Designer using the other CLASSPATH. I have not
been able to use this feature at all. I read somewhere that
this functionality is not available in the beta version. I
would appreciate any information that you can share.
Jinitiator Performance
Assuming that you have already tried cache settings and short of
the users having faster machines with more memory, faster web
access, etc. I don't think there is much we can do but wait for
Oracle and Sun to make enhancements.
I have had some success with using IE 5.0 (beta) directly
without the Jinitiator. My web applications load and run a
whole lot faster using the same configuration that you describe.
It might be worth another look!
Hope this helps.

Color interface of the forms over the web are not confortable

hello,
the interface color of our application in the web are not realy confortable for our client comparing the old color used in our client/server application.
we want to change it but we are not able the set a confortable color for our
application :
- if we use the lookandfell=generic but the color of toolbar are disable.
- if we use the lookandfeel=oracle, the the choice of color for colorscheme is
not variable (it exist only 5 choice).
our environment ;
OAS 10G (9041)
FORMS 10G
DATABASE 10G
we use the forms Servlet (e.g. f60servlet/f90servlet) to invoke the Form over the Web.
can you help us.
thank's

For as far as I can remember there is a difference between look-and-feel Oracle and Generic in displaying toolbar icon.
Generic follows the Windows 9x/Internet Explorer approach of showing all toolbar icons as gray-tones and only showing color when you hover over them with the mouse. Oracle lookandfeel displays all toolbar-icons in color (as long as they are enabled).

It would be great, if you could provide us with the following details:
1. The OS you are working on.
2. The version of MS Office installed on your machine.
3. A screenshot of the error message along with the scenario in which the same is displayed.
4. How exactly did you go about updating Reader 11.0.02 to 11.0.03. Was it via the updater mechanism or by downloading the patch from the Adobe site.
Also, it would be great if you could let us know if there was any other Windows or Antivirus related updates applied on your machine in the same timeframe as the Reader update.
