Form migration to R12

Hi,
We are upgrading from 11i to R12. Having a issue with the views initializations in forms
Ex: ra_salesrep is a view and i use it in LOV, when i click on LOV i dont see any records, It works fine in 11i instance,
basically the views are not getting initialized in R12.
Did any one faced this issue before?
Thank,
Sri

Forms Migration Assistant

Hello
I am using Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 and I want to migrate some forms from Forms 6i to Forms10g.
I edited the search_replace.properties file in order to change the TEXT_IO calls to CLIENT_TEXT_IO, however after i ran the forms migration assistant, the forms are not changing.
I have the following line in my search_replace.properties file:
Replace24=TEXT_IO|CLIENT_TEXT_IO
What is the correct way to use the search_replace.properties file ?
Thanks!
Ramiro Ortiz

You actually need to list all the TEXT_IO commands that are being used on separate lines, such as:
Replace24=TEXT_IO.FOPEN|CLIENT_TEXT_IO.FOPEN
Replace25=TEXT_IO.FILE_TYPE|CLIENT_TEXT_IO.FILE_TYPE
Replace26=TEXT_IO.PUT|CLIENT_TEXT_IO.PUT
Replace27=TEXT_IO.NEW_LINE|CLIENT_TEXT_IO.NEW_LINE
Replace28=TEXT_IO.FCLOSE|CLIENT_TEXT_IO.FCLOSE

Forms Migration Assistant - Forms Path?

Hi,
I'm hoping somebody can help me. I'm attempting to use the Forms Migration Assistant and I'm having problems getting it to recognise attached libraries etc. Is there some sort of path that I can set to tell it where to look? I'm using 10gR2 developer suite and I'm using the assistant in wizard mode. I have tried setting the forms path in the registry and in the default.env file but this doesn't seem to make any difference. The only time I have had this working is if I modify the shortcut to the assistant to "Start in" the same folder as all of the libraries and forms which is less than ideal for our situation.
Thanks in advance.

For anybody else that comes across this problem. Apparently, the regular forms_path should be picked up by the migration assistant however there is a bug with the GUI version of the tool that prevents this from happening. If you use the command line version then apparently the tool works fine.
However, if like me you intend to use the GUI version you can manually edit the frmplsqlconv.bat file to include your forms_path. There is a metalink note about this, the doc id is 454053.1

Forms Migration Assistant Usage

Hi all,
I am not able to understand the clear usage of Forms Migration Assistant yet.
I have seen in Forums that Forms 6i applications can be migrated to 11g just by recompiling the forms and running it on 11g.
If this is the case , whats the clear usage of Forms Migration Assistant?
Is it meant to be used for some complex Forms built on 6i or 9i ?
When do we use migration assistant instead of just recompiling the forms and running it on 11g ?
Can anyone help me out ?
Thanks,
Ram

It does some changes; for example when you have calls to run_product for reports this get's replaced by rp2rro.run_product, the rp2rro library is attached and the reports object is added to the form. You also get notified if you have calls to get_file_name in your form as this built in is deprecated.
cheers

Forms Migration Assistant installation problem

Hi,
I'm trying to install Forms Migration Assistant on linux to convert forms 6i apps to forms 9i. But when i try to install FMA downloaded from here the installer says that the Oracle Home does not have Oracle Forms 9i installed altough it was shown in installed products. The output of the log file is below. Please if anyone know the solution for this problem or have any idea it would be so helpful.
I need it for my thesis to be given this week.
Thanks for your help.

Also in the installation log file it says the things below. I think it's because i cannot identify the FORMS_ORACLE_HOME variable. In the installation procedure of FMA it says that i should set FORMS90_PATH to $ORACLE_HOME/forms90 but it doesn't work either.

Forms Migration to 11g, RUN_PRODUCT must be declared

Hi All,
I'm performing forms migration from 10g to 11g,
I used Forms Migration Assistant to Migrate forms, But if a form is calling reports then those forms are
not getting compiled and giving the error RUN_PRODUCT must be declared. I know that RUN_PRODUCT
is not supported in 11g, but is there any way to configure Forms Migration Assistant so that it replaces this
code with appropriate code. Forms Migration Assistant program asks for Report server name, Servlet Virtual Directory information for the forms that are calling reports. I don't know what to specify in virtual directory field
and report servlet field.
Please help me with this.
Thanks

You are replying to an old thread, but it looks like you didn't read it properly. It is stated that
when migrating from 6i to 10g we have used the wizard to replace RUN_PRODUCT with rp2rro.rp2rro_run_product (rp2rro.pll).So, you also need to use rp2rro.pll if you still want to make use of RUN_PRODUCT. Even in 10g RUN_PRODUCT by itself won't work. As Christian already said:
you probably could simply remove the call to run_product as in 10g the built-in was available but simply didn't do anything. Did you try that yet?

     2. if we migrating into intermediate version 6i, do we need to fix all the errors before moving to 6i.
     3. if no, do we lose any functionlity while migrating to 10g.
     4. Does Oracle support direct migration to 10g?

     1. Oracle 4.5-->6i-->10g, In this what are benefits of migrating into intermediate version.Oracle's migration path is 4.5, 6i, 10g it is more logical to migrate using this path and it is recommended by Oracle, the obsolete built-ins would be pointed out at compilation and fixes would be more automated and simple since Forms 6i was designed to accept migration from 4.5 and the internal design of the forms will be much more adaptable to later releases.
     2. if we migrating into intermediate version 6i, do we need to fix all the errors before moving to 6i.It would be better and easier to fix things in Forms 6i rather than 10g, you can leave them and than you'll have to fix them under 10g.
     3. if no, do we lose any functionlity while migrating to 10g.Functionality built on obsolete built-ins and commands will be lost, you are more likely to face bugs.
     4. Does Oracle support direct migration to 10g?Oracle's official migration path is 4.5 to 6i to 10g
     5. if we open oracle 4.5 form in 10g form builder, do we lose any functionality? do we need to lot manual replacement?It all depends on your application size and features. I suggest you migrate to Forms 6i first and than to 10g although you can do it directly to 10g since Forms 6i is no longer supported.
I personally rather follow the recommended path and use Oracle support in 10g migration.

Regarding forms migration

Hi,
I am working on forms migration. A form was migrated from 4 to 6i. Now I am migrating it to 10g.
The form has 2 mmb's,1 pll and object library all of which are migrated to 10g and are error-free.
Now I am trying to compile the form in 10g. For that when I open the form in Forms10g, the form closes automatically and I get a message "ifbld60.exe error". Now what can be done ?The form is working fine in 6i without any errors.It is not getting opened in 10g at all,
Kindly guide me.

Sir,
I am very sorry as I have not given the error message correctly.
This is the error message that I see when I open the form in 10g form builder.
"ifbld90.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.You will need to restart the program"
Now how can I proceed further?
Please guide me.

Not able to use forms migration assistant

Dear OTN Members
I have installed 10g database and dev suite 10g. Previous version of forms was 6i (client/server architecture). I have downloaded forms migration assitant 9.0.2; they are jar files. I dont know how to use migration assitant (jar files) to convert my forms to 10g. I have used java command to execute it, i have also double clicked on jar files but it says "invalid or corrupted jarfile". Tried in script, didnt worked too. When i download forms assistant it was in zip file and when i extract it, it becomes 5 directories named (Actions,Components,Dialogs,locks and Queries and two files named install1.jar and products.jar. I checked all files inside these directories but no file worked. I searched on web that how to make jar files executable and did that but i got the same message "invalid or corrupted jarfile".
Please guide me where can i found migration assitant v10.1.2 (i already searched web but cant find it). and how to use it? If anybody have it please send me link or file (as its size is very small).
I will appreciate your cooperation.

Is forms Migration Assistant supported on forms10g?

Hi.
I'm trying to user forms migration assistant with forms1g (Forms [32 bits] Versión 10.1.2.0.2 (Producción)), but i´m getting the following message: "the specified staging area is not supported by the current OUI". Seems like i need to install using a previous version of OUI or curent OUI is not supported.
Answers will be greatly appreciated ..!

Hi,
I had the same problem right now and solved it.
So for everyone who hits this problem .. the answer is:
no need to install the Forms Migration Assitant,
it is already included in 10g.

I want to download the Oracle9i Forms Migration Assistant, but I can't find it. Can you tell me, where can I find it?

You already have it - check out the f90plsqlconv.sh script in your bin directory
This is a Command line version - we'll be posting a prettier gui version on OTN shortly.

Downloading Forms Migration Assistance(6i- 9i)

I have downloaded and installed 9iDS release 2(9.0.2). I need to install Forms Migration assistance to test migration of 6i forms to 9iAS.
While downloading Forms Migration Assistance, it is saying Patch 1 for 9iDS must be first installed and then only Migration assistance can be installed.
Could anyone please let me know HOW COULD I DOWNLOAD Patch 1 for 9iDS.
Thanks

Hi,
3 things.
1. The forms 9i is NOT available for the client/server environment. Therefore if your customer insists on client/server environment then you need to upgrade to forms 6i (which is the final client/server version of forms/reports developer).
2. There are OS patches that you need to apply if you want to run forms/reports developer 6i on solaris 2.6. The complete list is available in the 6i installation documentation (you might find it also on the internet). If you upgrade the OS to solaris 8, then there is no extra OS patches required for forms/reports developer 6i. We are running 6i on Solaris 8 (with no extra OS patches).
3. The last available patch for forms/reports developer 6i is patch #10 which can be downloaded from Oracle Metalink. I did apply this patch for 6i on solaris 8 client/server environment and has not seen any negative effect so far.
regards.
