DBC file error while runing PG.xml in jdeveloper

Question

HI
1) I have installed Oracle database 10g on my local machine at location C:\oraclexe
2) Now I have installed Jdev 10G on my local machine at location C:\Jdev10gOAF
3) I have set the env variable JDEV_USER_HOME = C:\Jdev10gOAF\jdevhome\jdev
4) Now I want to start with OAF Tutorials present in my Jdev at location C:\Jdev10gOAF\jdevhome\jdev\myprojects
5) I have opened the toolbox.jws file in Jdev and it has loaded all the projects ExtendLabSolutions.jpr, LabSolutions.jpr,LabSolutions.jpr,Tutorial.jpr
6) Now Problem comes here when I try to run the HelloWorldPG.xml
Jdev is giving the error:
"The DBC Filename Field in the Runtime Connection is not specificed. To run OAF, you must specify a DBC file name."
7) I know that we need to give the dbc file name in runtime options of the project in Jdev , but the issue is from where should I get the DBC file for the Oracle database that I have installed locally on my system as mentioned in poitn 1.
Any help on setting up Jdev .
Thanks

Answer 1

I am not sure where this file is stored in 10g but you can create DBC file by your own. Below is a sample file content. Change the content as per your server and save the file as DBC.
In oracle apps, I think this file can be found in $FND_TOP
I will tell you exct locations tomorrow.
