Deploying forms application on Oracle Application Server 10g on Solaris

Hi Guys,
We have to deploy our forms application on Application Server 10g on Solaris platform.
I understand we have to specify the hosting directory in the formsweb.cfg file from where forms will be picked up.
Now the query is -
We have a directory structure, we want to keep the directory structure intact as every directory contains forms and reports executables belonging to that module.
So can I mention the parent directory structure as launching directory and still the forms will be picked and hosted as web forms when user tries to access the form via a link, the forms executables being in inidividual directories inside the parent directory?
- Hosting Directory (formsweb.cfg entry)
- Sub Directory1
      - Form1
      - Form2
- Sub Directory2
      - Form3
      - Form4
- Sub Directory3
      - Form5
      - Form6I hope I am able to put my query across in accurate way.
Thanks!
Av.

Hi FormsEleven,
When you say you can do this or you have done for demo then considering following directory structure if I have two forms having common form names how it will be resolved?
Or how the url to access these forms will be?
As shown in the following structure consider we have Form1 in sub directory1 as well as in sub-directory2 then how the link to access these forms will be?
- Hosting Directory (formsweb.cfg entry)
- Sub Directory1
      - Form1
      - Form2
- Sub Directory2
      - Form1
      - Form4
- Sub Directory3
      - Form5
      - Form6

URGENT: Deployment of ADF UIX application to Oracle App Server 10g

Hi,
Please let me know of documentation of how to deploy an ADF UIX application developed using Jdeveloper9.0.5.2 to Oracle Application Server 10g.
I have already created an WAR and EAR deployment profile. and also an ORacle APp server connection from the connections tab in Jdeveloper.
Thanks a lot.

Have a look at the JDeveloper online help (F1) there is a complete chapter about deploying:
http://helponline.oracle.com/jdeveloper/help/state/content/destination.2%7E9%7E1%7E6%7E/navSetId.jdeveloper/oldNavId.0/navId.0/oldNavSetId.jdeveloper/
Basically you need to deploy the ADF runtime libraries (use the ADF Runtime Installer), and then deploy your WAR.

ADF Application Deployment in OC4J of Oracle Applicaiton Server 10g

Hi,
We have developed big ADF application with 10 different modules. We are deploying the application by creating .ear file into OC4J.
for each small fix done, we are taking entire code from CVS to Jdev and rebuilding the entire code and creating .ear file.
My question is if we copy only modified files into OC4J applicaiton directory and bounce application, will this work.
Is there any way to only deploy the modified files in to OC4J?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the update.
I have few more clarifications.
After we complete the development and deploy the ADF application in prodcution server by creating EAR file with all the files, If we have to do modifications to only to few files for enhancements.
1) Can we copy only modified files(Ex.. Jspx,.Class files) to repective directories in the production server with out creating EAR file again? If we do so and bounce the OC4J, will this work?
2)Or do we have to create EAR file with all the files and deploy again into production server even we have changed only one file?
Just want to know process for deployment model for production support of ADF application.
Thanks

Compiling oracle 6i forms on Oracle Apps Server 10g on Solaris 10 server

I am tryin to compile oracle 6i forms which are workin on anohter linux server. I have an .env file where $ORACLE_HOME and other parameters are mentioned. Now i;ve been told that there is some display manager service is required on Solaris for these forms to be compiled successfully like Xvfb or something. Can anyone plz tell me how to run this deamon and make sure it;s accessible to forms compilation

i really don;t know if u have time to go throught all of the details below. But i think this would give you a clear picture of wat i am tryin to do.
this is the shell script i am using for compiling forms
#!/usr/bin/ksh
frmname=$1
if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
echo usage `basename $0` formname_or_first_few_characters
exit
fi;
set -a
# set this to the location of your IAS environment file
/export/home/devnew_d/IASDBK_HOME/server/devnew_d.env
set +a
CONNECTSTRING="devnew_d/devnew_d@dbklsdev"
for f in `ls -1 $frmname*.fmb`
do
PREFIX=`echo $f | cut -c1-3`
# if [ "$PREFIX" = "uix" ]; then
# continue
#fi
echo "Compiling $f";
bfile=`/bin/basename $f '.fmb'`
frmcmp Userid=${CONNECTSTRING} Module=$f Output_File=${bfile}.fmx Build=yes Window_state=Minimize Batch=yes Compile_all=no upgrade=no
if [ "$?" != "0" ]; then
echo ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
echo Error building $f
echo ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
else
rm -f ${bfile}.err
fi
done
now when i execute the script this is result i get
[devnew_d@himalaya]$ compile_forms u
/export/home/daybreak/bin/compile_forms: /home/devjp10/IASDBK_HOME/server/devjp10.env: not found
I think the issue lies within the devnew_d.env file, so here is a copy of the .env file

Deploying 10g 32bit forms on 64bit oracle application server

Hi
Can forms that are generated from forms developer on a 10g 32bit environment be deployed on a 64bit oracle application server?
Anthony.

Forms generated with Windows 32bit 10g run fine on Windows 64bit 10g because on Windows 64bit you have to run ApplicationServer 32 bit.
Using Linux might be different, but I don't know.
Using 11g You cannot run iAs 32 bit on Windows 64bit Platform and You cannot run 32bit generated Forms on iAs 64 bit.

please tell me which is the right option?Ideally, you should have two separate server machines.
One for the database server.
One for the Application Server.
The Application Server is basically used for hosting your forms and reports, so you dont have to place the forms and reports on the developer PC or at any other server.

Deploying forms and reports on Application Server 10g

I had buit some forms,reports by using Oracle Developer Suite( Oracle Form developer, Report developer ) , I had run them on that tools. Now I want to deploy on Oracle Application Server. How can do it , any one can tell me step by step (because I'm a beginer). How do I deploy on Application Server ? I had installed Oracle Application Server (without install Infrastructure) , can I deploy ? because My computer not support install Oracle Application Server with Infrastructure (memory only 512M). Are there any way ?
I'm beginer, please tell me step by step. thanks

Hi,
You can install the Oracle Application Forms and Reports standalone version of the application server. This does not require an infrastructure.
As far as deployment of Forms and Reports, you can either place your compiled (.fmx and .rep) files in the default \forms90 directory or you can place them in another directory and specify the location in the formsweb.cfg file.
For more information on the Oracle Forms and Reports standalone, see the installation guide at http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19375_06/doc/frs/install/B16392_03/toc.htm.

Error -8 when deploying JHeadStart application to Oracle Application Server

Hi,
I have developed an application using Oracle JHeadstart 10.1.3 Preview Version 10.1.3.0.78
We have Oracle Application Server 10g running in AS400. I created a connection to the server and tested. It shows the connection success.
I am trying to deploy my application to Oracle Application Server 10g but getting the following error:
Closing connection to Oc4jDcmServlet
#### DCM command did not complete successfully (-8)
#### HTTP return code was -8
Exit status of DCM servlet client: -8
Elapsed time for deployment: 30 seconds
#### Deployment incomplete. #### 25-Jul-2006 2:21:44 PM
I developed applications in JDev10.1.2 and deployed to the same server (Oracle Application Server 10g) without any problem.
But if I want to deploy application from JDev10.1.3 then I am having this error.
Can anybody help me? what might be the problem?
Thanks
Syed

Syed,
Did you generate your application with service -level property "JSP version" set to "1.2"? If not, you cannot deploy your app to a J2EE 1.3 application server like Oracle AS 10.1.2.

How To Deploy Application In Oracle Application Server

Hi All,
We have devloped an application in whic we have used tomcat server .
Now we want to deploy that application in Oracle application server.
technolgy used: J2ee
: Shark work flowserver
database:Oracle(XE)
Platform: windows XP
IDE:Eclipse (ganymede)
Web server:tomcat(6.0)
Thnaks and regards,

I think you put the questionin the wrong forum, this is all about Oracle SOA Technology, and deployment is a task within SOA.
I have created a deployment guide/tool for Oracle SOA products (see my blog, includes java deployment).
Put your question in :

How to deploy ADF page into Oracle Applications

Hi Guys,
Is there anyway for deploying ADF pages into Oracle Applications.
Please share some links or information if you have any.
Appreciate your help !!
Thanks,
VJ

You cannot run your ADF application on the EBS web-server. You need to run it on weblogic or glassfish or tomcat. But you can call your page from the EBS. For this, just define proper "Function" in EBS that calls a jsp page. If you need to pass information from EBS to your application like USER_ID, you can in "Function" -> "Parameters" use $PROFILE$.USER_ID to get the connected user id.
You can also research AppsDataSource that you can define in weblogic , but it is more difficult
