Application Server Form Template

I am looking to install Oracle Application server 10G and also Oracle Database 10G in a development environment.
I have installed Oracle 10G database before without any problems but don't have any development experience on the Application server .e.g i wouldn't be able to develop an Application to put on the Application server.
What i would like to know is:
When you install Oracle 10G database it installs with a test database has anyone created a template form for this dtabase that i could install on my Application server when i install the Application server? All i am looking for is a very simple form to insert a username addres and location or something like that.
If anyone has this could they please respond..
thanks to all who take time to look/reply to this posting

What I find strange is that when you run the test form using the OC4J instance on your PC it operates correctly, but when you run the same test form using the application server it behaves differently. Are you using the same database in both cases? I'm wondering if a different schema or table is being used.

Oracle Application server Forms and Report services 10.1.2.0.2 on Windows 2

Hi,
I am installing the Oracle Application server Forms and Report services 10.1.2.0.2 on Windows 2003 R2, but the problem is that setup is not running on this Windows 2003 R2 version.
Any idea about this why it is not running.
Regards,
Iftikhar

You asked this
How can i find what is the latest version that i can upgrade this install to
I told you where to find the last update, I checked that version yesterday, the last update is 10.1.2.3, my misstake was to put a 0 before the 3.
You can go to Patches & update>Quick Links to: Latest Patchsets, Mini Packs and Maintenance Packs>Oracle Fussion Middle Ware> Look for you OS versión and CPU> No clic just put pointer over the links and you will see the last one.
And finaly could look for the CPU of Jul and Apr that as requirement they ask for version 10.1.2.3 (as I say I checked yesterday)
Greetings.

Starting/Stopping Application Server Forms and Reports

Hello,
Are there any scripts (like dbstart and dbshut for Oracle DB) for starting and stopping "Application Server Forms and Reports". If not, any special suggestions?
I must automatically start this application on Unix. I know that during starting some steps must be performedy by the root user (export DISPLAY env variable and issue the "xhost +" command) and later the oracle user must do some things( export ORACLE_HOME and DISPLAY and issue the "opmnctl startall" command). Does anybody have scripts like that?
Regards,
Tim

If you're on 10.1.2, there is a script (requires an X Windows session). It's called runstartupconsole.sh, but you've got to update the install type to Portal in the ias.properties file if I remember right. It looks cool, but a shell script works better.
Here is a shell script that does some of those things. You still need to run xhost+ after running a display if you're using something that requires a DISPLAY to start. Someone may have a better one, but this one works.
We actually use one that starts all the different components individually except for Reports in rc scripts. That is the only thing we have that needs a Display set to start. So then xhost + is run & at the same time, the Unix sysadmin runs a script that start Reports from opmn.
I hope this is useful.
Cordially,
Steve

Application Server & Forms Server

I'm trying to study Oracle Developer. I need someone to tell me what's the different between Application Server and Forms Server?
Is Application server software that can run any application one of them is form applications?
Is it one software? so if I use it to run my forms Ill call that machine forms server or if i use it to run my report Ill call it report server.
I would appreciate any help
With regards

Hi.
Oracle Forms Server - the correct name is Oracle Application Server Forms Services - is a component of teh Oracle Application Server.
After installing the full version of Application Server Forms is ready for you to use.
Please refer to the Forms Whitepapers on otn.oracle.com/products/forms for how to configure Forms (formsweb.cfg and default.env) to run your custom applications.
Configuration is also supported through Enterprise Manager.

Instalation of oracle8i server, application server (forms server) on same machine

Hello people.
I have one question.
I have to install on the same machine:
Oracle 8i Server (817) and the forms server.
When i install the Forms6i + Oracle Database, it works fine.
But when i install the Oracle Database + Ora9ias Enterprise Edition, I verified that there is not the files and directories of forms (when I installed on unix, there were the directory 6iserver).
What steps I need to install the application server?
Do I need to install the Forms6i before install Application Server?
ps) I want to install the Oracle 9ias to use the apache+servlet, and i dont want o use the forms server because i would need one port to use it.
Thanks Very Much

Webutil - Application server form

We have a farm of 6 application servers for production. We are configuring the one application server which is our development environment, for web util.
1.When we go to production do we have to configure each one of the app servers in the farm with webutil configuration?
2.Will it have any impact on the existing forms which do not use webutil. Only 2 of our forms use webutil.
3.What will be the potential impact of webutil on existing forms, which do not use webutil, because we replace the basic html pages with webutil specific html pages for webutil configuration.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
1.When we go to production do we have to configure each one of the app servers in the farm with webutil configuration?
Yes.
2.Will it have any impact on the existing forms which do not use webutil. Only 2 of our forms use webutil.
No.
3.What will be the potential impact of webutil on existing forms, which do not use webutil, because we replace the basic html pages with webutil specific html pages for webutil configuration.
The webutil.jar file might get downloaded to the client, but thats its.

Application Server : Forms and Reports Services

Hello
Currently I have a three tier architecture in production for a client, running an forms and reports applications called HREF
1. client browser with Jinitiatior,webutil running 10g forms and reports app,
2. a 10g OAS with forms and report services and infrastructure components installed
3. a 10g Enterprise Edition Database Server running a 16gb db.
There is a new dev environment to be made on a much smaller scale with the same HREF application but it will only be about 2GB of data at the back end.It has to be much more cost effective, so I am looking at both reducing license costs and scale throughout.
So could I use........
1. The same client browser with Jinitiatior,webuti running 10g forms and reports app, -- running fmx and rdf can that be free?
2. Do I need a separate appliaction server install ? -- is OAS necessary , what is the most cost effective option (just install forms and reports services?)
3. Can I use Oracle Express Edition 10g -- free to use
Thanks for any help.

For development you don't need to pay license fees, so you could use Oracle Enterprise Edition as well.
Have a look at the OTN License agreement e.g. here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
We grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the programs only for the purpose of developing, testing, prototyping and demonstrating your application, and not for any other purpose. If you use the application you develop under this license for any internal data processing or for any commercial or production purposes, or you want to use the programs for any purpose other than as permitted under this agreement, you must obtain a production release version of the program by contacting us or an Oracle reseller to obtain the appropriate license. You acknowledge that we may not produce a production release version of the program and any development efforts undertaken by you are at your own risk. We may audit your use of the programs. Program documentation, if available, may accessed online at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/documentation/index.html.
Install Forms & Reports and the Database on Oracle Enterprise Linux and you won't even have to pay licenses for your OS.

Creation of pdf's Application server Forms&Reports services v9.0.4

When generating pdf documents using the reports server, is there anyway control the margins? All of my reports generated with a destination format of pdf have no left margin. This ok for some reports, but if I want to use a pdf with a pre-printed form, I need to specify a left margin.

hello,
margins are controlled by your report layout. in the report builder, while in the paper layout view of the report in question, click on the "Margin" button on the toolbar and you will see where you layout area is in respect to the overall page. it might be that your left edge of the layout area has been moved all the way to the edge of the physical page during report design.
thanks,
ph.

Calling Reports from a Form - Application Server Forms and Reports Services

Hi
We currently are running App Server 10G Forms and Reports and Oracle DB 11G. Forms are running fine with the Apps Server but what I need to find out is how do I set the path for the .rdf files of the reports and how do I configure the Apps Server to present the Reports? I am sure we have to edit a .conf file and add the server name but not sure what to do or how to do it?
ps. I am a newb but I managed to get both of Apps Server and Database configured on my lonesome so I am just missing the info on the Reports side of things.
The Developer has asked the following questions :-
We want to run a report created in report builder from forms by using the following command in forms;
web.show_document(v_url,'_blank');
what does v_url need to be - we need to find an example showing the v_web_address and v_rpt_server
v_url := 'http://'||v_web_address||'/reports/rwservlet?server='||v_rpt_server||'+report=test_report.rdf &desformat=PDF&userid=user/pw@database'
Do we need to make changes on the report server configuration and where should the rdf files reside?
Regards

Your question is marked as ANSWERED, so people don't want to look here..
I don't understand why do you need this? Just link change? Does apache redirection can help you, or you want to achieve something else?

Application Server "Forms Edition"

Hello,
have read somewhere on the net about Oracle iAS version for ISV using Forms developer who that version will be free of charge for deployement?
Is there something more I can read on this issue?
Best
Damir

There is no free version of Oracle9iAS Enterprise Edition (the one with Forms) for ISVs. You might be confused with the Java Edition.
However Oracle Partners and ISV can get significant discounts by joining Oracle Partner Network. http://opn.oracle.com
Talk to your Oracle Partner Manager about embedded and application specific Oracle9iAS license. These are relevant options for partners.

Are there any way ?
I'm beginer, please tell me step by step. thanks

Hi,
You can install the Oracle Application Forms and Reports standalone version of the application server. This does not require an infrastructure.
As far as deployment of Forms and Reports, you can either place your compiled (.fmx and .rep) files in the default \forms90 directory or you can place them in another directory and specify the location in the formsweb.cfg file.
For more information on the Oracle Forms and Reports standalone, see the installation guide at http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19375_06/doc/frs/install/B16392_03/toc.htm.
For information in deploying Oracle Forms, see the Oracle® Application Server Forms Services Deployment Guide at http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19375_06/doc/frs/forms/B14032_03/toc.htm
Reports deployment info is contained in the Oracle® Application Server Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web at http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19375_06/doc/frs/reports/B14048_02/toc.htm
