ERROR FRM-99999 USING FORMS SERVER

I'm trying to deploy new applications on the Web using OAS and
Developer Server. When I am trying to connect via the browser or
via the appletviewer to a simple form in Developer Server I get
this error in the Oracle Developer Forms Runtime - Web window:
FRM-99999: A network error ocurred, the client will not be able
to continue

Java Exception:

I've installed and configurated the next two differents
environments:
OPTION #1
Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3
Oracle RDBMS 7.3.4
Oracle Application Server 4.0.7.0.0
Oracle Developer 6.0.5.0.2
Netscape 4.5 and Explorer 5
Jinititator 1.1.7.11 and Jinitiator 1.1.5.3
JDK Applet Viewer 1.1.7.11
OPTION #2
Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 5
Patch for OAS (OAS_40710_Patch_40bit)
Oracle RDBMS 8.0.5
Oracle Application Server 4.0.7.0.0
Oracle Developer 6.0.5.0.2
Netscape 4.5 and Explorer 5
Jinititator 1.1.7.11 and Jinitiator 1.1.5.3
JDK Applet Viewer 1.1.7.11
I've tried sockets and http-sockets for the Forms Server
Listener, but I always get that error and sometimes the Applet
window doesn3t respond and nothing seems to happen.
I would like to know if somebody has go this situation throw.
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,
To use the Webutil, you must sign the WEBUTIL.JAR and JACOB.JAR.
Using Jarsigner, you have to define the JDK Home and the Jinitiator home.
I used whe jdk version 1.4.2 and the Jinitiator version 1.3.1.17
Don't forget to apply this modification.
Insert the line
<virtual-directory virtual-path="/webutil" real-path="D:\Forms9i\forms90\webutil" />
in the file
$ORACLE_HOME$\j2ee\Oracle9iDS\application-deployments\forms\forms90web\orion-web.xml
Insert the line
AliasMatch ^/forms90/webutil/(..*) "D:\Forms9i\forms90\webutil/$1"
in the file
$ORACLE_HOME$/forms90/server/forms90.conf
Of course You have to replace D:\forms9i with your Oracle Home.
