Develop/Port Oracle Application on OS390 Z/OS platform

We have an ANSI C application using ODBC to access Oracle or other RDBMS backend. The application runs on Windows and UNIX platforms. We are looking into porting this application on IBM OS/390 z/OS platform. What options do we have?
Is there ODBC manager and Oracle ODBC driver avaiable on z/OS?
On option could be replacing ODBC module with OCI or Pro*C based module. Do Oracle provide a development environment (lib, precompiler, etc.) for z/OS platform?
Thanks very much for any pointer and help!

Oracle developer to Oracle Applications

Hi Everyone,
This is a question for all Oracle Apps Consultants - I am an oracle developer with over 4.5 yrs of development exp in Oracle, Forms & Reports in a plethora of industries. I now wish to switch to Oracle Apps - this is based on the belief that the skeleton of Oracle apps is in Forms & Reports. What is the best way to go about it ? All comments on this are most welcome.

Hi 8475
Pl read my posting at thread
Oralce Developer to Oracle Financials
Hi 249849
I believe, you should build a report using the report builder (if it is a custom report), access the test database, compile and run it as standalone. Then using the system user rsponsibility you can define a custom report under reports menu of the navigation pane in apps. This will upload the reports under the report directory of the application architecture. You may have to define other parameters such as who can execute this report (security) etc.
Using the relevant application window you may invoke your reports via application.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Try the built-in procedure WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. See some examples in the on-line help of Forms.
You can call this built-in procedure in a Form level trigger , called 'KEY-HELP' (when the user presses the <Ctrl>+<H> buttons) , or if you have a button on the form use the trigger 'WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED'.
Hope the above will help you...

Advice about transitioning from a Forms developer to Oracle Applications.

Hi guys,
I need some advice and input about the subject.
I have been an Oracle programmer for 8+ years and worked on various versions
of the database and front end tools upto the lastest versions.
With extensive experience in forms, how smooth would the transition be to
being a technical programmer in Oracle Applications / EBS 11i/12.
Since the applications front end in build on Oracle Forms platform,
what more would I need to get a position as a Technical Consultant?
Do I need a very strong understanding of subject areas like accounting, supply chain etc...
I intent to certify in at least the Financial modules.
I would appreciate any input on this subject.
Thanks

So what I want is to have these pre entered in the database before I revock this form such that when I select a certain village on the form, it automatyically displays its District, Subcounty and County in the following textfiled. This saves time than typing them manually all the time.
I need help on how to do this.
2. On the same form, I have a textfield for capturing date of Birth. I need help on to insert a calender in this field such that when some one clicks on it, a calender pops up and he selects the date which is then inserted in the text field other than tytping it manually.

Specify Oracle Application Server EM Port in \ETC\SERVICES File - Help

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what to soecify in the /ETC/SERVICES file for Oracle Application Server Enterprise Manager Console 9.0.4 , so that the port is not used by any other process.
I have had situation where a rogue process was using port 1810 and was preventing the console from loading up.
Can anyone help??
I have to do this on a production system.
Thanks

Did you get an answer to this question?
I'm looking for the same information thanks to a rougue piece of software that removed my entry in /etc/services for port 1810 during it's install. I don't know what the service name should be. Of course - there was no backup copy of this file made prior to the install. It's a development box, so it doesn't get backed up often.
I can get the infra page to load fine, but the midtier page will not load.
I'm curious to know if you ever found anything on this.
Thanks,
Deb

Developing for a Oracle Application Server with SSO

Hello there,
I'm developing an application (Java) that will be deployed as a partner application within an Oracle Application Server 10g at my client. This Oracle instance has a SSO already configured, and my app will use this Identity Manager (consuming the cookie). The problem is that at my company we don't have a SSO system configured, not even an Oracle Application Server, just a simple Oracle XE 10g to hold data. So I'm wondering how can I do to develop my application and test it.
I was looking forward to install an OAS and configure an SSO to validate my implementation, but the download link provided by Oracle is broken (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/index.html). Another alternative that I thought of was to install an OC4J and configure a Java SSO to simulate the behavior of OSSO, and make my app the cookie set by it. But OC4J supports only til Servlet 2.4 and my app is using 2.5...
And to complete, I cannot access my client's environment. I'm supposed to write a Deploying document telling him how to deploy my app and then try to access it through Internet.
Does anyone have an idea of how can I develop and test my app in my company's environment?
Thanks in advance,
Bruno Krebs.

Apache 2.0 based OHS is located in Oracle Application Server Companion CD.

Running an application developed in Oracle Forms and reports

Hi Folks,
Does anyone know or have an opinion on whether an application developed in Oracle Forms/Reports can run on Oracle Cloud as it is a supported product?
It is also possible to 'mix' adf and forms , but on the cloud.....?
Thanks
Alex

Hi,
Oracle supports three types of cloud deployments
(Private) where by applications runs on premises fully controlled by customers.
(Public) where by applications runs at oracle data centers and managed by dedicated team of experts.
(Hybrid) partial applications runs on premises "Customer Site" and rest on oracle public cloud.
in your scenario of using forms/reports and ADF , i personally recommend to have your private cloud as the forms / reports are the previous generation of oracle development tools , everything in oracle public cloud is now based on Oracle fusions and fusion middle ware where the development tools are Jdeveloper , XML , etc...

Porting j2ee application from Weblogic to Oracle 10g AS

What are the common guidelines/consideration when we port a J2EE application on Oracle Application server 10g. from WebLogic 8.1. If you have some inputs on pin points/guidelines/Architecture decisions that we might need to consider when we port a J2EE application on different J2EE application server
I got the link for app server migration but it is broken :
http://www.oracle.com/consulting/technology/appserver_migration_ds.pdf
Our application uses the following J2EE components
1. JDBC 2.0
2. JNDI
3. DAO
4. EJB
5. JMS
6. JAAS
7. JAVA Mails.
8. Servlets, JSP’s
I can think following point that needs to take care while porting
1. Its deployment configuration vis-a-vis the apps on top
2. The APIs it exposes (actually the information it allows the apps to pass in to the framework
3. The data it encapsulates (in order to be app-server agnostic; does it need to be now exposed to apps?)
Some J2EE specific areas
1. JNDI usage and exposure to apps 2. Properties files/XML files
2. Location specification 3. Resource bundle location specification
4. EJB deployment descriptors
5. Class/jar references between wars and ears
6. Jar sharing model across ears
7. Class loader differences across app-servers
8. JMS settings (queues, topics, factories, durability etc)
9. UI tags 10. Startup services
11. Managed services (JMX)
12. Security context passing
13. Clustered configurations if any and how they port across app-servers
Thanks

Need some specifics, are you just getting an error in the browser?
Could be
- remote HTTP connections aren't enabled in the database, see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/admin.102/b25107/network.htm#BHCBCFBA
- firewall is blocking requests for that port, add port 8080 to your firewall exceptions list

Compatibility between Oracle Developer suit and application server

Hello
We are going to user oracle 10 to develop and deploy our application.
The tool that we were going to use are
Developer Suite 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) and
Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.2.0)
But i need to know whether this are compatible
Where can I find any documentation related to compatibilities between developer suit and application server ?
May thanks in advance

Hi Ana,
Compatible version of IAS is
10g Release 2 (10.1.2) or 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) with patch 1(10.1.2.1.0)
Also if u are using only forms and reports services there is a forms and reports standalone version is available. And hence u dont need to install infrastructre.
And this is a very compact product.
Even if you use forms 9i /developer suite 9i to develop the forms, when u compile them on IAS, it gets upgraded. There is not much diff between forms 9i and 10g

An application server is
a server program in a computer in a distributed network that provides the business logic for an application program.
The application server is frequently viewed as part of a three-tier application, consisting of a graphical user interface (GUI) server, an application (business logic) server, and a database and transaction server.
More descriptively, it can be viewed as dividing an application into:
--- A first-tier, front-end, Web browser-based---
1.graphical user interface, usually at a personal computer or workstation
2.A middle-tier business logic application or set of applications, possibly on a local area network or intranet server
3.A third-tier, back-end, database and transaction server, sometimes on a mainframe or large server
Hope this helps,

Porting Oracle 7 related application to Oracle 10

Hello fellas,
Currently I am trying to port an application from a legacy workstation that uses oracle 7 DB to SunBlade1500 which uses Solaris 9 and Oracle 10 database. Unfortunately, I faced alot of problem during object linking process, and most of them related to oracle libraries. Below is the error generated when linking failed :
ld: fatal: library -lclntsh: not found
ld: fatal: library -lsql: not found
ld: fatal: library -lsqlnet: not found
ld: fatal: library -lncr: not found
ld: fatal: library -lsqlnet: not found
ld: fatal: library -lclient: not found
ld: fatal: library -lcommon: not found
ld: fatal: library -lgeneric: not found
ld: fatal: library -lsqlnet: not found
ld: fatal: library -lncr: not found
ld: fatal: library -lsqlnet: not found
ld: fatal: library -lclient: not found
ld: fatal: library -lcommon: not found
ld: fatal: library -lgeneric: not found

ld: fatal: library -lcore3: not found
ld: fatal: library -lnlsrtl3: not found
ld: fatal: library -lcore3: not found
ld: fatal: library -lnlsrtl3: not found
When I find those libraries, almost most of them are oracle 7 libraries and cannot be found or in oracle 10. Any suggestion what should I do to handle this problem?

To Ora_tech: I have tried to compile and link them without those libraries, but apparently I faced linking error saying that:
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to dbsasmon
To Schavali: Yes, it was written in Pro C. I m not sure tho whether Pro C is as same as Pro COBOL. But what actually happened during compilation is, the pro C source codes are compiled into C++ codes. From there, the C++ is again compiled by using CC compiler. So, I dont think that having pro C compiler or its libraries will help since it will be going to be compiled by CC compiler at the end. Or...maybe I am wrong? LOL
Any suggestion/explanations?
Thanks in advance!

Getting error while configuring WAS 7 Fix Pack 37 with Oracle Application Development Framework (Oracle JDeveloper 11.1.1.7.0)

Hi,
I have installed Oracle Unified Directory 11.1.2.2.0 and WebSphere Application Server 7 with Fix Pack 37.
I am getting error while configuring WAS 7 Fix Pack 37 (7.0.0.37) with Oracle Application Development Framework (Oracle JDeveloper 11.1.1.7.0). While adding products to cell (Oracle Directory Services Manager for WebSphere - 11.1.2.2.0), I am getting below error:
CFGFWK-64069: The following prerequisites were found to be missing: Oracle WebCenter Composer Extension - 11.1.1.0
Also attached the screenshot of the error.
Please help.
Thanks,
Himanshu Verma

Hello,
ODSM has the following dependencies apart from ADF (both components depend also on ADF):
- UIShell (oracle.idm.uishell.war)
- Webcenter Composer (oracle.webcenter.composer.war).
Apparently the composer is missing.
Important points to check when using ODSM with WAS:
- To install and configure Oracle Fusion Middleware with IBM WebSphere, you must first install (but not configure) IBM WebSphere
- You must install the Oracle Application Development Framework as the same user who installed Oracle Unified Directory.
- appdev must be installed under the same ORACLE_HOME as OUD
