Custom form moved to 10g becomes slow

Hi All,
We have a custom form that works fine in the 11.5.10 instance. We have moved the form to an instance which is upgraded to 10g. The form is compiled with out any errors but when we query the form for certain conditions it becomes slow and is never giving the output.
We would be very great ful if some one can give us some suggestions on what is the reason for this issue and how to get rid of it.
Thanks very much in advance...
Madhu Sudhan

1) Check database initialization parameters for 10g database.

https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=216205.1
2) Try to run form with trace and look for the problematic explain plan.

Oracle 10g XE migrate from 32bit to 64bit becomes slower

Oracle 10g XE migrate from 32bit to 64bit becomes slower
Currently we have a database using Oracle 10g XE R2
(Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0)
on a linux 32bit server.
And recently we did migrate it to another 64bit linux server.
But found after migration is it running slower at 64bit server (~ 25% slower)
1. We would wonder any tuning is required on 64bit server?
Besides, as I know Oracle XE only using single core CPU for processing.
On 32bit linux the CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E31235 @ 3.20GHz
On 64bit linux the CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2470 v2 @ 2.40GHz
2. Would the CPU clock speed on a single core also made the 64bit Oracle slower?
Thanks a lot.

32 or 64 bit normally won't cause much performance difference as long as you can't use > 4GB RAM
Please note that XE can use only 1 core and 1GB memory.
According to benchmarks, Single Thread Rating of the 2 CPU really differ by around 25%. Quite consistent with your observation.
Of course, IO (i.e., disk) speed is also an important factor.

EBS12, Form 10G customized form. Error FRM-40832: Variable Forms_userExits

EBS 12.
Forms 10 G
can i run customized form on my local PC. i have customizied a form which compile successfuly but when i run the form following error come.
FRM-40832: Variable FORMS-USEREXITS not

I understand. That’s you why have been requested to upload the form to the server and run it. If you had any issues in compiling the form, I would not ask you to upload the form. Instead, I would suggest you fix it on your client first.
In brief ..
You cannot run the form on the local machine, and you have to upload it to the server to do so.
You should not upload the form to the server unless it compiles successfully on your client.

Custom forms not working in R12 Upgradation

Hi friends,
when we upgraded 11i to r12, we faced a serious problem, all the custom forms when we compiled in 10g and moved to r12, fields in those forms became invisible. Then , i opened the forms in form builder 10g, changed the property class of text_item to text_item_multiline,after which the field is visible.But when i try to attach calendar in the usual manner, the calendar is not visible.
Also when i try to create a new form in r12, i am facing the same problem. can some body help me what might be the problem.

Hi
thanks for the suggestion, i checked the thread, but my problem is different, my custom forms are not working even if i put them in any top like AR,AP PER etc., the problem in the thread is same as that of mine , but his forms were working when he placed them in other tops like AR,AP etc., but mine are not working even there.

Upgrade from 11i to R12 - Custom Forms,Reports and Workflows

Dear Community Friends,
We are planning for upgrade from oracle apps 11.5.10.2 to R12.
We have custom Forms,Form Libraries,Reports and Workflows.
Kindly provide me for approach on how to migrate Custom form libraries,reports and Workflows.
I beleive, this thread will exists as one shot point for custom forms,reports,workflow upgradation from 11i to r12 with detailed steps.
I know that many links exists here in the forum for all the above objects mentioned,but still from all those i am able to get a clear picture for oracle forms but not for custom form libraries ,reports and workflows.
Also,this post will provide a low level,practical picture of the steps for those who are in line with this.
Links i have read for all these in our forum are:
For Custom Forms,
Re: Planning to upgrade from 11i to R12
Re: Custom forms: After upgrading 11i to R12
ofcourse,'n' number of links exists providing metalink notes also.
Hussain,Helios and some others also has given many updates regd this.
For custom workflow upgradation,
Upgrade Workflow 11i to R12
Workflow Upgrade
Workflow Upgrade
For reports,links mentioned the below metalink notes:
Do Not Compile EBS R12 Reports Using rwconverter.sh or Reports Builder from IDS 10gR2 [ID 786794.1]
Using the OracleAS 10.1.2 Forms and Reports Builders with Oracle Applications Release 12 [ID 444248.1]
Per my understanding, after searching in many threads,i am here by summarising the practical low level steps for custom forms migration
Please correct me,if i am wrong.
1) Download the Forms(.fmb's) and all PLL's(all the PLL from resource folder in AU_TOP) into a Local Machine Folder
2) Open the forms using Forms Developer 10G and connect to DB
3) Compile by clicking compilein Forms Developer and then save it.
4) Upload the Saved Forms(.fmb's) into the new R12 server(system) in the respective custom paths(paths similar to 11i Server)
5) Compile all the forms using the command like below(example command is shown below or f60 gen commands or frmcmp.sh utility) in the respective custom form paths,
this will generate the .fmx's.
frmcmp_batch module=FORMNAME.fmb userid=apps/apps output_file=FORMNAME.fmx compile_all=yes
Link for compiling forms: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/ui/km/SearchDocDisplay.jspx?_afrLoop=359210362972527&type=DOCUMENT&id=1085928.1&displayIndex=3&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=c348xvwbg_98
6) Open the form and check in R12 instance
As per my understanding for custom form libraries,we can just copy paste the PLL's from 11i server to R12 server (Please correct me,if i am wrong)
Can anyone please help me out in custom reports and custom workflows.Sorry that,i could not get a practical and clear picture for reports and also for workflow even after referring many threads and metalink notes mentioned.
As for reports,some says that Developer Suite 10g can be used and .rdf can be used in R12.
Some says that reports should be converted to XML published as reports does not exists in R12.
So,i am not clear on this.
Thanks,
Ganesh

As for reports,some says that Developer Suite 10g can be used and .rdf can be used in R12.
Some says that reports should be converted to XML published as reports does not exists in R12.
So,i am not clear on this.You can still use RDF files in R12, and just follow the approach you mentioned above, and you do not have to migrate them to XML publisher (though it is recommended, but this can be done after the upgrade as an enhancement task).
For custom workflow, you need also to do the same thing, open them using workflow builder and make sure they work in R12 (correct the code if required and save them again in R12 once they work properly).

Calling shared objects in unix from Forms 6i and 10g

I would like to know how to call shared objects in unix from Froms 6i and 10g. Can anybody help in this regard? Your help is very well appreciated.

Hi,
Do you have any 11i instance where those custom forms are used? If yes, you will have to copy those forms from 11i to R12 instance, open the forms using Forms 10g builder, compile it and upload it back to the server.

Query records using a date DD-MON-YYYY in Forms 6i and 10g

In Forms 6i, I can query records by entering >20-dec-2006 in a date field which has length of 12 with a date format mask DD-MON-YYYY in date item property. Once this form is converted to 10g, I can only enter >2-dec-2006 for querying. If trying to enter the >20-dec-2006, then, it becomes >20-dec-200 and have no record found. Although I have the date length increased to 20, the result stays the same: can't enter 2 digits for day.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Appreciate your help. The date field has a format mask of DD-MON-YYYY. By entering >2-dec-2005 it will automatically be displayed as >2-DEC-2005 in Forms 6i or 10g. Also, the query property has case insensitive checked as Yes. The problem is with 10g, I can not enter anything at the 12th position. I can enter the date up to the 11th position >20-dec-200. In Forms 6i, this is not a problem. Thanks.

Custom forms (with Headstart), issues. Prompted more than once to save/commit.

We have found that after analyzing the APPS schema (for CBO), we
have an issue with custom forms. This issue relates to an
earlier post on this forum where we get prompted several times
to save/commit our changes and that the changes are never
submitted. We've narrowed it down to the QMS_TRANSACTIONS
table, when ever we run...
analyze table apps.QMS_TRANSACTIONS estimate statistics;
Table analyzed.
Our custom forms will stop working. Why is this? So far we've
found the only work around is to drop all Headstart objects and
run the scripts to recreate the objects in the APPS schema.

Michael,
This might be a similar problem as they have experienced in
Japan. Their problem description is as follows;
-At the beginning, the transaction can be committed from the
screen.
-After analyzing APPS schema, it becomes impossible to commit the
transaction.
This problem is reproduceable in following condition;
-Use Oracle 8i 8.1.7.x.
-Set '_push_join_union_view' parameter to true. (Set by Rapid
Installer of EBS)
-Analyze the schema that has qms_transactions table.
This problem seems to be caused by DB bug (Bug no 2058756).
If this is indeed your problem a workaround has been described to
set the event 10195 before analyzing the table.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sigrid Gylseth.

How to enable "Shift-F6" or "Copy Record" feature in custom Forms

I am looking for sample code or setup to enable Shift-F6 (Copy Record) functionality in multi-record block of a custom Form.
If someone has tried it earlier, can you pls share. Or, point me to a documentation which has these details.
Thanks.

Unable to save using custom form in Public folder?

Hi,
Years ago I created a custom form for a Public calendar folder. Recently I was asked to update that custom form, which I did. Then I published it to the Public folder and changed the properties of the folder to use the new form as the default.
This all seemed to work, when we create a new record we get the custom form. Problem is when we try to Save & Close I get the following error message:
"The item cannot be saved to this folder. The folder was deleted or moved, or you do not have permission. Do you want to save a copy of it in the default folder for the item."
If I hit "Yes" I think it saves in my personal calendar folder, if I hit "No" it just goes away.
I've been Googling this for a number of hours but all I find it reference to an old MS article about the mail box being full, which it isn't.
If I switch back to the original custom form I can save records all day long. Which indicates to me that I actually do have rights and that the mail box isn't full. I have owner rights to this Public calendar.
Any other thoughts? I did try clearing the forms cache but that didn't seem to have any affect.
Incidentally, I was also asked to update a customized form on a different Public calendar folder and that went off without a hitch.
Thanks in advance,
Linn

Make sure you have the right values in the Authentication Plugins in your Custom Form Authentication Scheme. You may have used different field names in your HTML form than the ones that are in your Plugins. Also, make sure the webgate.dll is protected by a Policy Domain. If all is set up right, and it still doesnt work, bounce everything including the IIS server.
I have seen situations with IIS where changes in the Access Server configuration are not picked up until you bounce the webgate / IIS server. This doesnt seem to be the case with Apache or Sun JSWS.

Calendar Lov not showing in custom forms on EBS 12.1.1

Hi,
Previously i worked on Oracle Forms 6i but at present i am working on Forms 10g (Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)) with no patch.
I build the custom forms and compile that in custom top on EBS 12.1.1 but the calendar lov is not showing.
Build Step.
Used TEMPLATE.fmb for scratch.
Field name -Order date, Item Type- TextItem, SubclassInformation- TEXT_ITEM_DATE, DataType-Datetime, FormatMask -DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS,
List Of Values- ENABLE_LIST_LAMP, Validate Form List- No
Add 'KEY-LISTVAL' trigger in ORDER_DATE field and write 'calendar.show;' Trigger text but it's not working.
If Above steps apply on forms-6i then calendar lov populated on EBS 11.5.10.2.
I know this is very old topic and found lots of post for this topic but none of them help me.
Could any one help me if anything i missed for Forms-10g with EBS12.1.1 ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Srini,
Thanks for your reply.
You can see i followed the all the above steps as mentioned in the article.
But still it's not working.
If you implemented the Calendar LOV in EBS12.1.1 through forms 10g then please give me your steps.
AS per my understanding the below is the required steps.
1. Item Type - Text Item
2. Subclass Information - TEXT_ITEM_DATE
3. Data Type - Datetime or Date
4. List of Values - Enable_List_Lamp
5.Add key-LISTVAL trigger and written calendar.show;
Thanks

How to call a custom form with parameter throgh apps personalization?

Hi All,
I have developed a custom form in 10g and register it to apps r12. I am calling this form through personalization by lauch a function associated with form.
Issue is this, I want to pass a parameter to this form from apps eg. Receipt_num.
I want to get Receipt_Num value from apps form and pass it to custom form.
Pleas help me how can I do thi?
Thanks
Farooq

Hi,
So We have a standard form for example (purchase order form) and ur custom form is called by using the menu created by form personalization. So When you open the purchase order form and query for one purchase order number for example 2000, so this purchase order number need to be passed to your custom form field(purchase order number)
Correct.
Please follow this link,i have done the same thing and its working fine.

Issue with Custom Form opening in Oracle apps

Hello,
I am not sure if this is correct place for this question.
Hi,
I have created a custom form and tested in forms 6i. I have moved the fmb and fmx files from my local machine to unix box and registered the form in oracle apps (11.5.10).
However, when I open the form from oracle apps, form opens OK but some of the field in form are blacked out-I am able to see the field but its black in color. When I type in field and highlight it with my mouse, the value I typed shows up.
What can be issue here?
I moved both fmb and fmx from my local machine to UNIX box.
Please help...

NV,
Have you resolved your issue? I've run into this before. I failed to subclass all of my objects properly from the APPSTAND.fmb in accordance with the [Oracle Applications Developers Guide | http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25516_18/current/acrobat/115devg.pdf]. If you have your items subclassed correctly, double check to make sure your Forms Builder is using the correct color pallet.
Hope this helps.
Craig...
