Connect to Database through FORM builder

I have configured 2 listeners to my database, both connect to the database ok but when I try to connect through my form builder I keep getting the error message
"cannot resolve service_name" even though it's already connected through my net configuration assistant. Is there a seperate connect properties file for my form builder?

You need to add an entry in the tnsnames.ora file that is in the Oracle_home that Forms is in.

  • Trouble with running form on web through form builder

    Can anyone help me? I have research every document, talked with metalink and have checked everything. I cannot find the problem.
    While running form on web through form builder, receive error FRM-92100 Connection to server was interrupted. I have checked details and receive java exception java.lang.ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException:256. Not sure this means anything but adding it just in case.
    I am running Forms 6i, version 6.0.8.20.1 Loaded forms from CD which did not include the WEBDB listener, so loaded listener seperately. Loaded database version 8.1.7 with apache server.
    Information in my httpd.conf file shows servername myserver.domain, port 80 and listen 80.
    Information in my formsweb.cgf file shows serverport 9000 connectmode:socket
    What else should I check? What is set wrong? All services up and running.
    Can anyone help?

    Toni,
    try the following
    from the orant/bin directory type the following
    ifweb60 <modulename> <userid>
    make sure that the Forms module to start is in the Forms60_Path and can be found.
    If all works well then this should start teh Appletviewer showing the Forms you request
    to run.
    Hope that I am not misunderstanding you and you are looking for starting Forms from the Forms developer by clicking on the preview button in the toolbar. If you are looking for Web deploying Forms applications, requesting it from a Browser, then the configuration is different.

    Did you literally go into your tns file and put all of your specific envirnmental specifications?
    Is the listener up and running?
    Are you using the right alias?
    Hope this helps.

    Check your TNSNAMES.ORA file that located in ORACLE HOME
    FOR DEVELOPER and make sure it has right configuration
    information, otherwise configure manually.Also if DB located
    not on your machine check HOSTS file.(this file doesn't have any
    extention)

  • Form does not appear when run through Form Builder

    Hello,
    We are trying to get a new installation of Form Builder 10g to work. When we try to run the form, the Forms Service browser comes up, but the form does not. We are likely missing a setting in some config file. Can anyone help us?
    Thank you,

    Thanks for your efforts.
    I have searched the forum, but maybe have not hit the correct key words yet. If you can suggest better search parameters than I have used, I will try again.
    The popup blocker settings are the same as on other PCs that work correctly.
    Our tnsnames is also good, as we are connecting through Form Builder.
    I tried researching the error message that was requested, but the error code and message did not match up.
    I would appreciate any other suggestions.

  • Store and display word document in database through forms

    how can i store a word document in database through forms 6i or 10g, and display it through forms from database.

    Hi Alex
    "Create a datablock and specify the item datatype as blob"
    BUT: How to bring the document to the blob?
    Hi user 611..
    Warning: It is easy if you use an OLE-Object - but OLE is a special format. The result will not be the same as with dbms_LOB.
    We have a application with documents stored via OLE - terrible!
    OLE is no longer supported by forms 10. But webutil would help.
    I asked a similar question and got a good answer:

  • How to connect 10g database through Enterprise manager???

    Hi All,
    I want to connect the database through Enterprise manager.
    My database is on 10g. Version is 10.1
    Please tell me the procedure to connect the database through E.M.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Prathamesh.

    Are you thinking of the Enterprise Manager supplied with Oracle9i? If yes - it doesn't work quite that way ... and the 9i java OEM is not compatible.
    Use the enterprise manager supplied with the 10g database, called the dbconsole (look for a service or start it using 'emctl start dbconsole') and access it using http://{localhost}:5500/em
    If that doesn't satisfy you, load the updated version of the OEM 9i java standalone from the 10g client disk.

  • How to Connect MySQL Database Through JTable?

    Hi,
    How to Connect MySQL Database Through JTable? anyone of u knows these concept please send me coding of that Part..
    Thanks,
    Guru..

    Start by reading the tutorials. There's a section on Swing which shows you how to use tables and a section on JDBC which shows you how to use SQL.
    And you can always search the forum as well since there are working examples of both posted on the forum.
    If you need further help with a specific problem then you need to create a [Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html], that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.
    Don't forget to use the [Code Formatting Tags|http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting], so the posted code retains its original formatting.
