Deloying Forms in Linux

How can i deploy a form developped with Forms 10g in IAS+Linux
Please what is the modifications that i must add to .bash_profile (Library ....)
thank you

Assuming you have already installed IAS and it's working (test Form), you don't need to do anything with .bash_profile, you have to configure your application. See [url http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_16/web.1012/b14032/toc.htm]Forms Services Deployment Guide
Eventually you may have to compile your form : you can use frmcmp.sh for that.
If you mean to launch a single form from browser, then you can use something like :
http://<machine name>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?form=<form's path>.fmx&userid=<username/password@DB>
for example :
http://localhost:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=/tmp/MY_FORM.fmx&userid=scott/tiger@orcl

Compilation error while generating the form in linux

Hello everyone,
I am using Oracle Designer ver10.1.2.4 in windows to generate the forms with standard object library ofgwebol.olb and template form ofgwebt.fmb. form (with both .fmb and .fmx files) are generated without errors. Also when I open the forms in separately they compiles without errors. But when I copy the same .fmb file into linux enviroment and compile it using frmcmp.sh userid=user/password@database module_type=form compile_all=yes module=form_name it gives following errors.
$> frmcmp.sh userid=odin/odin@ontw10g module_ty

Form not created
I think some standard library are missing in Linux environment. But I do not know the name of them and neither I can find. Please suggest the what need to be done to resolve the problem. The reason I am compiling the form in Linux is that I can run the form in windows because of corrupted installation of OC4j.
Thanking you all much in advance.

Deepank-
When generating forms from Designer, Designer attaches libraries - like ofgmes.pll, ofgnavl.pll, etc. You will need to copy these libraries to the same directory where your forms reside on your Linux box. To find out what libraries ate attached to your form, open it on your windows PC after generating it from Designer and you will see the attached libraries. Also, watch out for the case-sensitivity of Linux. If you have the Designer libraries on your linux box and you still get errors, try changing the case of the names of the libraries.
Hope this helps,
Dan

How to run the oracle form in linux system

Hello all,
My config is :-
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
I can easily run my on Windows and Linux platform untill i am not use java bean in my form. After using the getMacaddress JAVA BEAN. I am not able to run my form on linux platform. If i remove the java bean from my form than form will run on linux.
I am not familiar with linux so i am not able to trace the problem basicaly i don't know which version of jre is used by linux system and i don't know how to find it.
Please guide me.

Now i install the jdk 1.6.0_20 and add into the jdeveloper 10.1.3.
and i change my code for get mac id is -
package demo;
import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.NetworkInterface;
import java.net.SocketException;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;
public class App{
public static void main(String[] args){
InetAddress ip;
try {
ip = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
System.out.println("Current IP address : " + ip.getHostAddress());
NetworkInterface network = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(ip);
byte[] mac = network.getHardwareAddress();
System.out.print("Current MAC address : ");
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < mac.length; i++) {
sb.append(String.format("%02X%s", mac[i], (i < mac.length - 1) ? "-" : ""));
System.out.println(sb.toString());
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SocketException e){
e.printStackTrace();
in form i create one jave bean area and add the implement class is
demo.get_info.
and on B1 (button) when-button-pressed
:T1 :=GET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY('BEAN_MAC',1,'get_info');
No error comes and no out put comes. So please guide me how to use the getHardwareAddress to get mac id.

Compile form in Linux

Hi,
I developed one custom form using Linux.But, when I want to compile that form using f60gen it gives "-bash: line 36: f60gen: command not found" error message. As per I understand f60gen is not recognised.
Can any one suggest me how to overcome this problem.My DBA has helpless regarding this matter.(I have f60gen.exe application in my bin directory).
Thanks,
Bhujendra

Hi
You have to log in as application user (if multi user created - applmgr - user for application tier and oracle -- user for database tier, based on the username you have specified while installation). Set the environment by running the following.
$ . $APPL_TOP/SIDName_hostname.env
$APPL_TOP (refers to <sidname>appl directory) will work only after setting the environment.
After setting the environment navigate to particular directory where you have put fmb and run the f60gen command, it will work.

Running Form in Linux on Itanium2 64-bit

Hello there,
We are migrating our database and forms from Oracle 9i database and 9i Forms from Windows 2003 to Oracle 9i Database and Oracle 9i Forms on Linux AS on Itanium2 64-bit.
I want to know Is there any special arrangements to be made to migrate forms from 32-bit to 64-bit?? and from windows to linux. Please guide me what will be the proper procedure.....
Write me in detail please, or recommend me a white paper.

Thanks for the feedback. I wonder if newer installers will have any degree of compatibility.
I saw on another page that people are at least getting some 488.2 functionality in XPMode:
http://forums.ni.com/t5/Instrument-Control-GPIB-Serial/NI-488-2-does-work-on-Windows-XP-Mode-within-...
In some cases, I don't necessarily need physical access to the hardware. I just want to satisfy dependencies for linkage when running application builder, CVI, etc. I know I can manually copy VI's, headers, etc. but that's a pain.

How to compile form in Linux?

Hi guys,
I am developing using forms builder 6i on windows xp.
The application server is on Linux.
Should I recompile my form on Linux?
If so then can you please detail the step in how to do so? Because I am really unfamiliar with Linux.
What command should I run? where do I run the said command? etc.
Thanks
Jim

Jim
Should I recompile my form on Linux? A. If you plan to run it on an iAS server that is Linux then Yes.
Is you application server Linux and is it possible you could compile it there?
Script to compile on the iAS server
#UNIX Forms Compile
#compile_forms.sh
export FORMS_PATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/apps/<your_directory>
export DISPLAY=localhost:2.0
#export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
export TERM=vt220
export ORACLE_TERM=vt220
export FORMS_BUILDER_CLASSPATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/apps/<your_directory>
for i in `ls /u01/app/oracle/product/apps/afs_dev/your.fmb`
do
echo Compiling Form $i ....
frmcmp_batch.sh userid=username/password@oracle_sid batch=yes module=$i module_type=form
compile_all=yes window_state=minimize
done
# May Need to modify $ORACLE_HOME/frmcmp_batch.sh to include FORMS_PATH and other environment variables.
# Copy the frmcmp_batch.sh to /home/oracle or the directory you prefer.
Replace your.fmb and <your_directory> with the correct form name and path

Sos: deploying developer forms on linux ----- urgent!!!!!

have a problem in deploying developer forms on linux.
how do i do that?

You must compile a form under Linux.
To do that, you must have Developer/Server for Linux. After installing it, in $ORACLE_HOME/bin there will be a compiler - f60genm

Printing a Oracle PDF Report from within a Oracle Form on Linux

Is there a command I can use in Oracle Forms to invoke a shell script to open a PDF output report stored on a physical location on the Linux server and print it to the printer?
What I'm currently trying to do is send a Report called within Oracle Forms 10g to "DESTYPE=FILE DESFORMAT=PDF DESNAME=directory/filename.pdf". I'm storing all the information about the file and printer information prior to it being run with the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. What I want to happen is as soon as it finishes generating the file, I want (behind the scenes) is it to locate the file, open, and print it automatically, but never show the output to the user on the screen.
I know with the "DESTYPE=cache DESNAME=filename DESFORMAT=PDF" that it puts the info in the Reports Server / Cache directory, but also opens it in a separate browser window of which you can select the printer at that point. I don't want to do that in this option.
I previously tried to use the "DESTYPE=printer" option but, the issue with it has to deal with fonts. I do not want to store fonts on every printer, given the different types of printers our users have. I can print to the printer but the fonts are all messed up so, not an option.
So, basically I'm trying to replace that option with generating to a PDF, then I don't have to worry about fonts, since I have them all working, then I can just open the PDF file on the server and send to the printer. I was wondering if that is an option available in Oracle Forms when calling reports. I figured that when someone sends the option of "DESTYPE=printer" that it must be calling some shell script on Linux that handles this. I'm just not seeing it.
Any help is appreciated.
Chris

Ok, one final question because I want to see how far this can go.
Can I issue this command via the HOST inside the form? Basically I'm telling it to open and send the file to the printer. The vFileName is the directory/filename stored on the Linux Server. I can execute this command on the command line of Linux and it works
HOST( 'lpr -P gt-ybs-ps /u11/app/as10g/tools/web/html/pc_rp00120100210035258.pdf');
I promise this is my last quesion.

Testing forms in linux machine

Hi,
How can I test forms application after installing 10g application server in linux machine using
http://<your_server>:7778/forms/frmservlet?form=test.
In windows , jinitiator is automatically installed, but in linux how can I configure?.

Hi,
should work the same if the client machine is Windows. If the client machine is Linux, you need to use the JavaPlugin as described in the documentation (see application server documentation)

Installing Oracle Forms on Linux

Dear all,
I'm trying to install Oracle Forms but stumbling upon its perquisites. My machine is Linux Slackware 13.0 64 and I've been trying to install Developer Suite but it failed since my Linux version is not supported.
My question is:
1. Can I modify (or cheat on) Universal Installer setup so that it let me install on Slackware?
2. I also looked at Fusion Middleware requirements and it also supports only Linux Oracle, Suse, or Redhat. Is there any workaround to install the software without changing my OS?
Best regards,
Val

You can just copy the relevant parts (the ones marked with error). You can also look at the timing
when it happened the reports environment did not start.
From what i remember this could be a memory issue, standard every managed server (WLS_FORMS and WLS_REPORTS) instance
is configured with 1024m bytes of memory.
What we did is first install a forms instance and after that a reports instance. After the forms installation we adjusted the
memory parameters in setWLSEnv (<middleware-home>/user_projects/domains/<domain-name>/bin). Look in this file
for references to WLS_FORMS (something similar to: if [ "${SERVER_NAME}" = "WLS_FORMS" ] ; then).
Another thing which springs to my mind is, which products did you select. If you just want Forms and Reports
you can select just the following:
- Oracle Forms
- Oracle Reports
- Developer Tools aan.
- Management Components
- Oracle HTTP Server
and deselect the other options:
- Oracle Portal
- Oracle Discoverer
- Oracle WebCache
- Clustered (if you are not using clustering)
We also had to fix the following files (i do not think that you have to do this since your Forms did not show any problems):
- (On Windows) Copy the file msvcr71.dll (FMW/windows/extra) to WINDOWS/system32.
- Copy the file mod_wl_ohs.so (FMW/<operating-system>/extra) to <middleware-home>/as_1/ohs/modules.

WUC-24: Error reading URL when running WeubUtil form in Linux

We finally managed to successfully run a form (10g R2) to read from an Excel sheet in the Linux machine.
Now issue is just as the form loads we get this error
WUC-24: Error reading URL
http://192.168.x.xx:7778/forms/webutil/testwebutil.dllJava console gives
ERROR>WUC-24 [URLDownload.pullFile()] Error reading URL http://192.168.2.47:7778/forms/webutil/testwebutil.dllHowever the form is working and the Excel can be uploaded. We just want to get rid of this message.
This error is not even caught by the ON-ERROR error handler it seems???
Any help would be grately appreciated.

Ok. We opened his Java Console and this is what it read. I hope this gives someone a clue in trying to help me resolve this issue?

File available with list of customized seeded forms on Linux?

Hello,
Does anyone know which file on Linux keeps track of the customized seeded forms? This list will be used to give a warning when applying a patch which contains conflicts.
Thanks for your response!

Hi;
Yes, I know, but in your exemple the form INVTVTXN.fmb should be registered somewhere in a file, because otherwhise we don't get a warning before applying a patch which contains the same file. If there should not be a warning, the file would be overwritten. Do you know in which file it is registered?All registered form information hold under FND tables(like FND_FORM). Those table information hold in tablespace which is holding on xxdata(like proddata) on OS level.
AFAIK If you are applying patch and if it try to change xx.fmb its check fmb's version, If the version check pass then it change fmb also change related fmx. But AFAIK it doesnt change nothing in FND tables.(maybe some patch do,it can depends patch type,i am not sure)
Please check e-trm site to can get to learn relation between FND tables and registered form information
