Configure OAS 10g R3 as a browser MS Project reader

Looking for instructions how to configure OAS 10g Release 3 diplay MS Projects (.mpp) files.
Our desire is provide this capability through OAS and not install the MS-Projects reader on multiple pc's.
Any assistance or references would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, lets see how many of these we can already deal with:
** General Look And Feel Issues:
* Missing icons and redrawing issues in the file browser
Loged as new bug 3609752
* ...useScreenMenuBar has been depreciated message
Can find this, are you sure this is not being confused with the antialiasing messages?
* Dialog background colors
Logged as bug 2610818
* Open dialog sorting
Logged as new bug 3609768
* AWT exception on exiting:
Logged as bug 3525259
* Multi monitor bug
Unfortunately we only have a few macs and non of them have more than one monitor at the moment. But from your description this problem seem to lie with Apple rather than us. I will keep an eye on it for you though.
** Error messages on startup
I belive this is a common problem accross all platform.
** Inner classs issue
Again this is a problem with all versions of JDeveloper. Logged as bug 3546309, not currently scheduled to be fixed until the next release. Note that this only seems to affect the highligthing in the editor and nothing else.
** Items not being saved, position not being restored.
If you press Apple-Q the Java virtual machine will kill jdeveloper and not allow it to close down properly. This can be resolve by addin hooks provided by apple. For the 903 preview release we had an addin for this. I will look at providing a drop in for 9.0.5.1
** Symbolic links, and other enhancements
In will invetigate symbolic links and get back to you. I will also look at tracing down ER or log bugs for the other enhancemnts you mention
Thanks for the details,
G.

Need help with error configuring Identity Management in OAS 10g

Hi,
I am configuring SSO in OAS 10g, After successful installation (with sso option selected) when I go to the management interface and attempt to configure Identity Management it fails with the following error:
Error configuring identity management. oracle.ias.configtool.config.ConfigException: Unable to retrieve SSO DB information.Base Exception: oracle.ias.configtool.config.ConfigException: oracle.ias.configtool.config.ConfigException: oracle.ias.configtool.config.ConfigException: Unable to retrieve SSO DB information . Base Exception : Error when reading seeAlso of replicaid entry - java.lang.NullPointerException Status code 3
I am totally stumped, cant find any instance of this error in docs etc. PLEASE HELP.
I am trying to setup OAS to SSO with MS AS for oracle ebusiness suite 11i.
Thanx in Advance,
Sean

Check that your insfrastructure database is up and running, it's accesible, as well, check for OID procs and demons that ports for OID are open and that you can make ldapbind this last may not be necesary as the error say about database, but is good to check also. Go to *$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/logs* and check the files there to see if other process are having problems.

Generate txt output using a program unit in web report (OAS 10g)

Hi Everyone.
I have a c/s report (6i) which generates a txt file in a program unit using TEXT_IO package. I need to move this report to web (Reports 10g) and publishing it in OAS 10g. I've done that (without the text file generation), I can see the report on the browser in PDF Format and works fine... but, I still have a problem... when I use Text_io package, the c/s version of the report in 10g runs an generates the output.txt file but when I move it to web I got an error in the before report trigger (in which I invoke the program unit sp_generate_txt)
I looked around for a solution and I just find the usage of webutil package, but as you know, webutil package is only usable in Forms.
Any Ideas on how can I solve this problem?

Hello,
TEXT_IO can be used in Reports deployed on the web.
The difference with Client /Server is the fact that the file create by TEXT_IO will be created on the "Middle Tier Server" and not on the Client.

Reports Graphics and OAS 10g

I made a report with a pie char in developer 10g, it runs OK and i see the char in my desktop. When I execute the report (.rep) in OAS 10g (Forms a Reports Services) via the rwservlet, the resulting PDF file contains everything but the chart doesn't appears (white page). Is there any kind of configuration I need to adjust?

Hi,
This is strange. There is no additional configuration needed for charts. If your reports are running fine, it means you should be able to get charts in the output. Does the same problem reproduce if you change the output format from PDF to HTML or HTMLCSS?

Images not showing up after moving from OAS 10g to Weblogic 11g

We are moving our oracle forms application from OAS10g to weblogic 11g. We have a simple login html page that has an jpg image. This login page is rendered properly under OAS 10g. After following the documentation for configuration, the login functionality works fine but for some reason the images on the html page do not show anymore. The images are located within the same directory as the html page
C:\Oracle\Middleware\asinst_1\config\FormsComponent\forms\server\index.html
C:\Oracle\Middleware\asinst_1\config\FormsComponent\forms\server\myimage.jpg (this does not render).
Does anyone have any suggestion about this?
thanks,
Wes

I'm just noticing this tonight, too. I had Lr3 scan for missing photos. It identified 388 out of about 20,000. In checking on that, I tried to reconnect one to the current path, but nothing happens. The entry for that shot stays in the Missing Photographs group, and the "missing" icon remains on the thumbnail.

OAS 10g (10.1.2) Windows install -- different location for pagefile.sys

During installation of OAS 10g (10.1.2), by default the pagefile.sys on the C:\ is checked to see that it has at least 512 MB. The pagefile.sys on our Windows server is located on a different drive. Is there a way to specify to the OAS installer to scan for the pagefile.sys on a different drive?

Hi,
Do you get this error when you try to run forms configured using OAS 10g 10.2.0.2.
We run a Web application using OAS 10g 10.2.0.2 and after leaving the application idle, more than half an hour, ora-12152 is displayed and the application is in a deadlock.
Can you please suggest any solution for the same.
Should the SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) be commented in sqlnet.ora file.

BIG-IP Timeout with OAS 10g 10.1.2.0.2

We have installed OAS 10g 10.1.2.0.2 in two servers which are Load-balanced using hardware load balancer BIG-IP configuration.
10g As installation is done along with Infrastructure + Middle-tier.
But after all configuration after we run the Oracle forms application and keep it idle for more than one hour, Database connection with the Application server is disconnected due to Global Idle Timeout value of 1 hr in BIG-IP configuration.
Is there any Timeout parameter in OAS 10g 10.1.2.0.2 which can override the Idle Timeout value of BIG-IP Configuration.
Appreciate your response at the earliest.
Thank you.

My first thought is that you suggest the app server to database connection is timing out - I'm assuming you're not using the load balancer to balance sqlnet connections so are we actually talking about a firewall in between and not the Big IP?
If it is the load balancer then, looking at this another way... on Cisco CSS 11500 series you can definitely set the timeout on the load balancer to a specific value (or to never timeout), so you can probably do the same on the Big IP.
Note: I wouldn't recommend setting the connections to never timeout as this can potentially waste memory on your load balancers which might look like a memory leak after, say, 6 months in a production environment without a reboot.
Hope this helps.

Cross-site Scripting Vulnerability OAS-10g/10.1.2.0.0 OHS

Has anyone confronted the Cross-site scripting Vulnerability with 10g and OHS 10.1.2?
We are about to put our first APEX box into production, but we need to fix this vulnerability first.
I did some searching around but failed to come up with anything useful. It could be my searching sucked, too.
Any thoughts / help / ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Crazy JNDI Problem... (Third Party DB Driver Effects Lookup???) (OAS 10g)

Ok folks, I need some help here...
The scenario is this...
I have a simple web app (one jsp) which is used as a "status checker" to ensure that all the session beans we expected to be deployed are actually deployed and that they can be looked up with JNDI and run some small status routine... That war file for that app is included in the ear file with all of the session ejb jar deployments...
Now, the collection of session beans references three different datasources at one time or another... 2 of which are oracle databases and 1 is a DB2 database...
Lets name them as follows...
OracleDataSource1
OracleDataSource2
DB2DataSource
Now, if I configure the three datasources in the oracle standalone OC4J 10g datasource file and deploy the ear file to standalone OC4J 10g, all of the lookups work, and it successfully uses the datasources... no problems at all...
Ok, so now I try to deploy the ear on OAS 10g using the enterprise manager console, and deployment works fine...
If I run the app before configuring the datasources, of course the lookups work, but the status routines of certains beans fail because they are not able to look up the datasources... no big deal, just start adding the datasources...
I configure OracleDataSource1 and rerun... now things still work, the lookups for all the beans works fine, and some pass now, but others still want the other datasources...
Now configure OracleDataSource2 and rerun... as before, things all work great but there are still complaints looking for the DB2DataSource from a couple of the routines...
Herein lies the problem...
I configure DB2DataSource and rerun, and boom, my program crashes claiming that the lookup of the bean failed...
Now mind you, these beans have all been looked up numerous times during previous runs, and absolutely nothing has been changed with the application... in fact, even the beans that wanted the DB2DataSource were looked up successfully and then just complained of no datasource during their status routine execution...
It's just that once I configure the DB2DataSource, all of a sudden my lookups don't work... I have tried commenting out a couple of the beans, and regardless of which lookups are commented out, it still fails saying it can't find any of the beans, even if the beans i'm trying to look up don't use the DB2DataSource, it doesn't seem to matter...
The InitialContext used for the lookup uses the default "new InitialContext()" constructor and the lookups work fine when the DB2DataSource is not configured, but once it is, the lookups fail saying the objects are not found...
I have consulted with a few other developers here, and noone can seem to understand why this behavior is happening... I have added debugging statements to print the contents of the context's environment, and it is always empty regardless of whether the lookups pass or fail...
The ONLY difference I can see with this DB2DataSource is that it uses an external 3rd party driver... The oracle connections use a driver which was packaged with the OAS installation... I feel pretty strongly that it has to do with the driver because if I have the DB2DataSource configured (causing the failure) and then I edit that datasource to say that it should us the oracle driver, miraculously it causes the lookups to work again, except now I get the error saying the oracle driver doesn't like my DB2 jdbc url...
I'm sorry for the long post, but I'm hoping that at least one person has encountered this before... I cannot think of any reason why the configuration of that datasource with the third party driver would cause these problems, especially when the exact same configuration and setup DOES work with standalone OC4J 10g, even with the DB2DataSource configured... ????? And the fact that the lookups work fine until that datasource is configured really blows my mind... i wouldn't think the datasource configuration should have anything to do with whether the lookups of the session beans succeed or not... hahaha...
Any help would be great... I'm pullin my hair out here... :)
Thanks,
-Garrett

No, I have not asked on the oracle forums yet... :)
It seems that the cause is the driver itself... if I set a different driver for the datasource configuation, the lookups work but it just complains about the driver not being correct for the individual beans...
I have found some documentation claiming that there is an OAS version of the DB2 driver, as well as a Merant version, but I can't seem to find jar files for either...
Does anyone know where I can download the "YMdb2.jar" file? Supposedly this contains the DB2 DataDirect driver that I need...
Thanks,
-Garrett

How to execute a procedure on OAS 10g release 3

Hi,
1 - I installed OAS 10G, and Oracle 10g, but I don´t know what the path to execute a html procedure(htp.p('hi')...etc), the installer say that Oracle HTTP Server was installed in http://server:80/, but I try and I have a page not found...
Tks.

Internal 500 when accessing OAS 10g

Hi all,
I have installed and configured my custom application on OAS 10g.
-If I hit my web page using the IP (i.e: http://192.168.1.1:777/ISRA) from a remote workstation, I will see the login page. After entering the credential and click login I get the Internal 500 ERROR. Note: When I get the Internal 500 Error, the IP from the URL had become the OAS name (i.e:http://oas10g:7777/web/search.jsp). And I also have an entry of the OAS in my hosts file.
-If I hit the webpage using the server name (i.e: http://oas10g:7777/ISRA).Everything is working fine. After I click login, the server name does not get translated back to the IP address.
NOTE:
-If I run these two tests on the actual Application Server. Everything is working fine.
I hope my explanations are clear.
Thank you guys.

How to run oracle 10g application on firefox browser.

my oracle 10g application is running on Internet Explorer ,but when i run it on firefox (installed on windows and linux) raise an error...
can any one tell me the configuration...

When using Firefox Browser 3.0.x, you have to manually install the java plugin on your pc and copy the NPJPI150_xx.dll to the plugin directory of Firefox.
Make sure, that you use exactly the same version, as you named in your formsweb.cfg configuration.
In my case, were we use Java Plugin 1.5.0_06, I have these linse in my formsweb.cfg file:
# For Firefox:
jpi_mimetype=application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.5.0_06
# For IE:
jpi_classid=clsid:CAFEEFAC-0015-0000-0006-ABCDEFFEDCBA
Good luck

What can I do?

Hello,
Do you know if you have this packages with earlier versions?
When this happen the installer only check for the version that contain in the oraparam.ini. But if you are trust that you have all the packages only in newer versions, you can try this.
runInstaller -ignoresysprereqs
It will make the same verification, and find same problems, but with this flag it will jump to the next part and continue installing. Try to be careful of this flag because if you miss one of the prerequisits from documentation, you may have a highly option to fail in the configuration assitants or find some erroneus behavior of the App.
Regards.

Problem Installing OAS 10g Infrastructure on WinXP

When installing OAS 10g Infrastructure on my WinXP Laptop the OPMN configuration assistant fails while starting the apache http server, because apache.exe fails (apache.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close...). Starting the apache http server using 'dcmctl start -ct ohs' results in the same behaviour. This is reproduceable. I know that this kind of installation in not supported. Any idea what the reason could be for this ?
Thanks Thomas

Weblogic 10.3.2 as a replacement of OAS 10g full of Oracle Forms

hello, quick question: Can I take a entire system in Oracle Forms with OAS 10g technology and deploy them on a Weblogic 10.3.2 as an upgrade/replacement option ?
Can weblogic run Oracle forms out of the box or is there a vendor lock-in trick ?
Thanks in advance,
fabio

Out of the box, WLS is not able to run Oracle Forms.
At the time of this writing, for a complete replacement you need the following components:
- WLS 10.3.2
- OFM 11g Forms
(optional for single sign-on)
- OFM 11g OID
- AS 10.1.4 OID DAS and mod_osso
