Cartridge implementation on OAS4.0.7 !
hi,
i have deployed my application using Developer server 6 and OAS4.0.7 on winnt sp 3 workstation having 256 MB RAM(non-cartridge implementation). as there are more than 15 users, the application is running very slow. i want to use forms and reports cartridges to make the application running faster ?? can somebody please guide me on how to create cartridges and implement them ??
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Saumin
Hi Saumin,
using a cartridge is not what you expect it to do. The cartridge implementation provides a more dynamically approach for starting Forms applications and further a way to setup load balancing using the Metrics Server.
Since Reports and Forms are not real cartridges (only implemented as cartridges to improve startup) the performance that you'll gain by setting up the cartridge is not what you probably expect.
I would suggest to have a look at your memory
CPU and network.

Data Cartridge Implementation - PGA Memory Problem
Hi,
I have modified the Data Cartridge implementation explained in the article at http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=422.
More precisely I have modified it to create not only the type returned, but also the select statement.
The problem I have, is that the PGA memory through the execution of my package always increases, and when it ends the execution the PGA doesn't get released.
I'm wondering if i'm missing something on the ODCITableClose.

Cartridge implementation In OAS+Dev server
How do you implement cartridge application in OAS & dEV 6.0.I tried modifying cartrig.html,no result.I used JInitiator route no use.Things worked fine in Dev2000 R2.1.In OAS when you create a application & a cartridge(forms cartridge) it does not start even if i modify the hosts parameter in the
application/server config parameters(setting no of servers to 1) why?
MaheshSherry,
Is the cartridge necessary for internet (browser) deployment or
just from intranet (application) deployment?

Any known issues about CGI/Cartridge implementations
Hello,
Please advise.
A. I have been told that the Forms Server can handle only a limited number of connections. Is this TRUE?
If yes,
1. what are the other alternatives?
2. how many concurrent connections can a Forms Server handle?
B. Are cartridge implementations better that CGI implementations?
Thanks for a reply.
Regards
YogeerajSorry, I do not have any sites you can access (and I guess those companies would not want anyone logging on to them!!!).
If you have a question then post a new thread and we can discuss. However, with Forms on the Web you should be able to deploy with similar performance to client server. Infact in many cases performance can be better when deployed on the web. This of course depends on the way you have designed your Forms. If a Form had 10 tabbed canveses with 10 multi-row blocks of 10 items then the Forms Server has to tell the client to draw (10*10*10) items. This may lead you to see performance issues.
As I said, start a new thread and give me details of what kind of performance issues you are getting and we can address them

How to run Forms 5.0 Applications on OAS4.0.7 (Cartridge Ver
Hi,
I Have Oracle Application Server 4.0.7, installed, up and

Client on It.
I was able to Run a forms module usning the Non Cartridge Method.
I am not able to figure out how to create a forms Cartridge or
Application in OAS 4.0.7.
Can any body please let me know how to deploy the forms
application and run on OAS4.0.X
The only application type that we can create in OAS are like,
PL/SQL, Live HTML, JCORBA, WebC . I don't find a corresponding
Application for forms. The documentation doesn't speak any thing
about the forms .. Some of the documents on the oracle site
mention about forms cartridge, developer cartridge, but I don't
see any such cartridge in OAS.

Starting Application/cartridge
Hi,
I created a reports cartridge in OAS4.0.8 on NT 4.0(SP5).
Using OAS Manager, I stopped the application and cartridge.
How do I start the cartridge back.
I don't see the Start icon for the cartrige anymore to start ii again.
I cannot use the command line utility (owsctl) to start it(and its documented also).
The only way I can start the cartridge or application is using OAS Manager. But for some reason the start buttone does not appear for the cartridge. I tried selecting All option and Reload , Reload quickly comes back with OK screen(no errors) and no cartridge status is still down.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ram,
The cartridge starts once it stats receiving requests.If you have followed the steps for cartridge implementation once you complete
stop all services i.e.,wrb,listeners etc by selecting all at website 40 node on OAS manager page,then restart the computer,restart the forms server listener,restart wrb,listeners.After all this load the cartridge page using URL SIMILAR TO THIS http://machine.domain:port/frmweb
where frmweb is the virtual path for your cartridge port is the listener port.

Reports 6 cartridge will not start (DEV TEAM PLEASE HELP)
Reports 6 cartridge + OAS 4.0.7.1 on solaris 2.6, RDBMS 7.3.4.4

We followed the configuration steps from the oracle
documentation.
Now we have the following problems:
When we try the following url: http://my_machine_name/rwows60?

Any help would be appreciated.
We also found that there might be an error in the aformentionned
document: They tell us to put %ORAWEB_HOME%/bin in the Physical
path for the cartridge virtual path, I think it should be
$ORACLE_HOME/bin (The oracle home of developper server I mean)
Any way, both physical path setting give the same result...

ORACLE tech support said that DEV Server 6.0 needs to be
installed in the same OH as OAS 4.0.7.1. I had problems
relinking and had to install it in its own oracle home. Could it
really be the problem ?
nullHi,
Indeed, you did, but I mist it ... sorry it's only because of my French ... hahaha
You did find the answer to my problem and also the solution ... I kept missing the slide on the side the window of the DVD so I did not think of the extra package and all that time it was there ... How " ........... " (dumb) of me ...
thank you very much for opening my eyes and for your patience.
And yes ! X11 is now working... !!! I have been trying for two days ....

How Cartridge works in OAS/form server
Hi, guys:
I am deploying forms to the web.
Since the base HTML file for cartridge implementation is the
same as that for non-cartridge implementation, I really can not
figure out how the OAS/form server knows if using Cartridge or

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

Thanks in advanceHi. I was able to install these three products into an NT machine. And I got it to work. I used the static_jinit.html instead of the demojini.html, this file comes with the Jinitiator install(this will be installed with Developer 6. I had to download the latest installation documents from metalink.oracle.com(Developer 6.0 and Oracle 8i) and www.olab.com(OAS 4.0.8). It is important that you get and read these documents first, the documentation that comes with the CDs is not up-to-date. Basically here are the steps that I did, these are based on the documents that I got from the websites:
1. Install Developer 6.0 first. Be sure to install it in the DEFAULT ORACLE_HOME(path is usually c:\orant).
2. Install Oracle 8i. Give it a diff. ORACLE_HOME(e.g. ora8i, path = c:\orant\ora8i).
3. Install OAS 4.0.8. Give it a diff ORACLE_HOME(e.g. oas408, path = c:\oas408). If you're using NT4 be sure to use SP5.
After installing these three test to see if you could deploy your web apps. I used the static implementation, I haven't tried the cartridge implementation yet. If is still doesn't work download and install the latest Developer 6.0 patch from metalink. I had to do this extra step to finally make it work(I guess we have a defective Developer 6.0 CD). I am also using Netscape 4.0.5, I still can't make it work with Explorer 4.0, I think it will only work if you use Explorer 5.0.

Not getting Reports Parameter Form in web-forms environ
I am not able to get a report parameter form to appear for a
report called from forms via a 'run_product' command. It works
fine in client/server mode. In web-forms the report just goes
ahead and runs without the needed parameters. I have tried
explicitly passing a parameter list with the 'paramform' set to
'yes' and this did nothing. I have this on a NT box with latest
Dev2 patches applied.
1. Is the reports parameter form supposed to work in web-forms
mode?
2. How do you set it up to work, if it is supposed to work?
Thanks for any replies.
nullI guess you have to use web.show_document - I found this article
on DevConnect:
Article-ID: <Note:68647.1>
Circulation: PUBLISHED (EXTERNAL)
Platform: GENERIC Generic issue
Subject: How to show Reports HTML PARAMFORM when
calling Reports
from Forms
Modified-Date: 09-AUG-1999 18:02:04
Document-Type: BULLETIN
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN
Impact: MEDIUM
Component: SQLREP
PURPOSE:
This bulletin explains how to overcome the current restriction
of calling an Oracle Report from Oracle Forms and showing a
PARAMETER FORM. This is currently not possible when using the
RUN_PRODUCT built-in with
WEB DEPLOYED APPLICATIONS.
DESCRIPTION:
When you call an Oracle Report from Oracle Forms using
RUN_PRODUCT in Client-server, you can specify an optional
parameter called PARAMFORM to display the parameter form defined
in the Oracle Report.
For web-deployed applications, the PARAMFORM parameter can be
set to HTML to produce a HTML version of the parameter form.
When calling Oracle Reports from an Oracle Form using
RUN_PRODUCT and specifying PARAMFORM=HTML in the parameter list,
the Oracle Reports parameter form doesn't show the in the client
browser. If the Oracle Reports Cartridge/CGI is used and
PARAMFORM=HTML is specified, then the Oracle Reports parameter
form does appear in the client browser.
Oracle Forms does not use either the Cartridge or the CGI with
RUN_PRODUCT, and it's these thin clients that produce the HTML
Oracle Reports parameter form.
As a workaround to this problem, you can use either the
Cartridge or the CGI with the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT Oracle Forms
builtin. This does require either the Oracle Reports Cartrige
or the CGI to be installed. Neither of these are necessary if
the parameter form isn't required.
INSTRUCTIONS:
The following items need to be installed:
1. Oracle Reports Multi-tier Server.
2. Oracle Reports Web Cartridge
or
Oracle Reports Web CGI.
Here is a typical URL that can be specified in a browser
to run a report using Oracle Reports Cartridge implementation:
http://your_webserver/r30ows?
server=repserver21+report=emp_30.rep+
destype=cache+desformat=html+userid=scott/tiger@mydb+paramform=ht
ml
For CGI implementation:
http://your_webserver/your_vir_cgi_dir/r30cgi32.exe?
server=repserver21+report=emp_30.rep+destype=cache+desformat=html
userid=scott/tiger@mydbparamform=html
The Oracle Reports parameter form now is shown. This can be
used with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT issuing the request to execute the
report to the Oracle Reports Multi-Tier Server instead of using
RUN_PRODUCT.
The following code may be added to a program unit, which then
issues the request to run the report:
IF get_application_property(user_interface) = 'WEB' then
/* Use Cartridge configuration with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. */
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://your_webserver/r30ows?
server=repserver21+report=emp_30.rep+destype=cache+desformat=html
userid=scott/tiger@mydbparamform=html', '_self');
/* OR for CGI configuration. */
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
('http://your_webserver/your_vir_cgi_dir/r30cgi32.exe?
server=repserver21+report=emp_30.rep+destype=cache+desformat=html
userid=scott/tiger@mydbparamform=html', '_self');
ELSE
/* use RUN_PRODUCT for client-server with PARAMFORM=Yes. */
Add_Parameter(plid, 'PARAMFORM', TEXT_PARAMETER, 'YES');
RUN_PRODUCT
(REPORTS,'emp_30.rep',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,plid);
END;

Re: Unable to Run forms in Web Environment....
Hi Everybody,
My current environment:
1. Windows NT Server 4.0 (Service Pack 3)
2. Oracle8 V8.0.4
3. Oracle Web App Server 4.0.5 CR
4. Oracle Developer 6.0
All of the above have been installed on the same machine.
Developer 6.0 has been installed on a separate Oracle Home
directory and the rest (Db and WAS) resides in one Home.
Problem:
I have tried both, cartridge and non-cartridge implementation,
but failed to run web forms.
My Browser starts up, initializes all class files and finally
states "Applet Started", but after that I see no UI. (this is
during Non-Cartridge Implementation).
With Cartridge Implementation, I get "Internal Error, Please Try
Again"
Another vague thing, if I set the "CLASSPATH" and
"FORMS60_JAVADIR", and open the form in the designer and hit
"Runform Web", it works.
If set the CLASSPATH and leave it, then I am unable to use
OASMGR from the browser (applet for the navigator fails).
If I unset it, then oasmgr works fine.
Finally, If someone can give me the right environment of Web
Forms, in terms of the versions of the Oracle Software and the
configuration (Home Dir's), plus some sample settings for
Virtual directory mappings for WAS or Web Cartridge settings, I
would really really really really appreciate.
One more request, Do we need use JINITIATOR 1.1.5.3 for Dev 6.0 ?
(I tried using as well as not using, but does not help me in
deployment).
Thanks in advance,
Bala.

Bala,
we just did a demo with a 33K Modem and Dev 6, OAS 4.0.7,... all
on the same machine and this is really eating up resources
(mostly memory). The startup time is horrible but one thing is
the server machine, another is the tuning by creating your own
jar files which is really necessary. Somewhere I read about
problems with caching the jar files so they are loading the jar
files again and again. So right now we are more experimenting
with Oracle's Web Form than developping.
There are a lot of bugs from Forms 5 (Web) which should be fixed
in Dev 6 production. IMHO they are not doing any fixes on Forms
5 anymore because Forms 6 will be an Oracle Applications release
but Forms 5 isn't.
Personally I will drive my company not to develop any new
project in Forms 5 only in Forms 6.

Passing Username and Password When Invoking Another Service
Suppose that I have Service A that calls Service B in its code.
I can set authentication , inbound/outbound integrity and confidentiality settings for this service.(Service A)
Can I define a mechanism-declaratively-that tell the service A to include this information (username and password) in its SOAP request message when calling another service? (service B, suppose that service B's authentication is enabled) for example in WS-Security part of the request to service B.
Best Regards,
FarbodIt appears the only way to parameterize the Applications username and password in Web forms is to use either
a cartridge implementation or javascript. I found the following document on Metalink describing the
