Forms 10g to oracle 8i database
hi database experts,
i have a situation here...my senior programmer want me to conenct from oracle10gr1 forms to oracle8i database(8.1.7.0.0). but when i try to log in i received an error ORA-03134 : connection to this server version are no longer supported. I show him the error but he dont beleived me. I dont know why???????
is it no longer supported. Please i need your reply. i will print your reply and showed it to him.
thanks in advanced.
If he does not believe the error message thrown by Oracle itself, what makes you think he will believe us?
Anyway, you can show him the Oracle support (Metalink) note 207303.1 and ask him read himself.

How to connect oracle forms 10g with oracle 10g express database?
Hi all,
I have downloaded and installed oracle forms 10g and oracle database 10g express, when I open net configuration assistant to test local net service, I tested the default service (EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA) BUT THE RESULT IS "ora-28547 connection to server failed probable oracle net admin error"
How can I solve this issue?
My tnsname.ora is located in c:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\tnsnames.ora, and its contents is:
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: c:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nour-pc)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = PLSExtProc)
Edited by: user10228498 on Jan 21, 2011 11:37 PMI copied the contents of C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora and appended it to C:\DevSuiteHome\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
and tried net configuration management to test local net service, the test was ok, thus the first problem resolved.
but the login problem in forms developer still exist and it claims that: ora-12154 tns could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
any ideas? -
Forms 10G Replacing Oracle Logo in Menu Bar
Hello:
Forms 10G Replacing Oracle Logo in Menu Bar
We use lookAndFeel=oracle which gives Oracle Logo in the Manu Bar at top right corner.

# Purpose
# Apache mod_oc4j and mod_jserv configuration file for Forms Services.
# This file should be included into the Oracle Apache HTTP Listener
# configuration file (typically by adding an include statement to the

# Remarks
# If Forms is to be used with JServ, the jserv.properties file needs editing
# to add the "forms" servlet zone with properties file forms.properties
# Notes
# Virtual paths: We use AliasMatch when defining virtual paths for
# security reasons (prevents directory browsing).
# Virtual path mapping for Forms Java jar and class files (codebase)
AliasMatch ^/forms/java/(..*) "E:\oracle\FRHome_1/forms/java/$1"
# Virtual path for JInitiator downloadable executable and download page

Is it possible to use Oracle Forms 10g with Oracle 10g Lite Database?
Hi All,
We are in process of migrating our forms from 6i to 10g environment.
We have two kinds of applications, one set run on general Oracle 11g database and the other set of forms run at the client machine using Oracle lite database.
We dont have any problem with Forms 6i to connect to Lite database as it allows to connect through ODBC:DSN names. When we try to connect to a lite database (10gR3) from Forms 10g through ODBC/DSN, it's not allowing and throwing the below error.
ORA-03121 : no interface driver connected - function not performed
Can someone tell me if there is something wrong in our approach? Also advise how to use Oracle Lite database with Forms 10G.
Sincerely,
Praveen ManthenaHi,
I have experience with 6i with lite database 10g. There are two version of lite database one is multi language support and other one in english. There lang problem in connectivity with multi language 10g lite database. I done connectivity with single language connectivity of 6i with 10g lite database. You should try this one with forms 10g.

Oracle 6i forms issue with Oracle 9i Database
Hi Friends,
I am having Oracle Forms Developer installed with patchset18.The Version is 6.0.8.27.0
When i connect the forms builder to 9i Database (9.2.0.1) the form builder is getting crashed but i am able to connect the forms builder to e-business suite database(9.2.0.6)
I tried installing 9i Database(9.2.0.1) on windows 2003 server,windows xp,windows 2000.
When i connect my forms builder to any of these databases the forms builder is crashing with don't send message error on (ifbld60.exe).
Is there any compatibility issue between forms builder(6i) and oracle 9i(9.2.0.1).Please suggest me.
Regards,
Arun .NForms 6i connects to Oracle 9 databases just fine, even though it is no longer certified by Oracle.
First of all, can you connect to the database with SQL Plus? Make sure that works first.
The other thing that comes to mind is the AL32UTF8 character set. Forms 6i and other older Oracle software cannot connect to databases using it. But I have only seen that problem with Oracle 10g databases, so I am not sure about the Oracle 9 db.
Here is a thread discussing the problem: Re: connecting form 6i to oracle database 10G express edition -

Thanks in advance.First, using 10.1.2.0 against 11.x is not recommended. You should at least be using 10.1.2.3 if you plan to work with 11.x. Further, there is a known issue which causes connection, compilation, and some sql execution to run significantly slowly. This issue has been corrected with a patch and new switch. If you have an active Support contact, I would recommend creating a Service Request in order to get the latest information.

How to use LDAP with Oracle forms 10g on Oracle application server
Hi,
I need some help on this. I have developed oracle forms 10g on application server 9iAS. The client want to use the existing LDAP authentication to the software we wrote. I do not know how I could configure to use the existing LDAP authentication . If anyone know how would I use the existing LDAP on different server to use when they logon to our menu in 10g to validate the user. Do I need to add any varibales in formweb.cfg or any other method. Please help.
Thanks
LukshI am not quite sure if this works out of the box. According to an Oracle FAQ:
4.2 Can I use LDAP to authenticate Forms Services?
Not directly. However, Oracle Login Server is able to authenticate against a LDAP directory and thus a Forms application can take advantage of this in a SSO environment. But you cannot use access control information stored in a LDAP directory with Forms. -
Forms 10g in Oracle Application Server.
Dear All,
We are now using OC4J in Oracle Application for our Java/J2EE application, we have now developed some forms screens in Oracle forms 10g.
Can we integrate both these application such away that the user logins thru Java Application and uses Forms screens without entering the username & password two times.
Help me in solving this issue.
Regards,
Anandh.BYes, by using SSO you can achieve it. The partner applications should be registered with SSO.
Method will depend on your version of OAS for the two applications. -
Slow Problems with Oracle Forms 10g and Oracle Database 11g
Hi, I wonder if there is a compatibility problem between Version 10.1.2.0.2 32 Oracle Forms and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production. This is because my application runs correctly on a version of Oracle Database 10g, and when we migrated the database to an Oracle Database 11g, slowness problems came out.
Thanks.We have the same issue happening with our custom forms and with some of the standard forms in EBSO. So far we have found that the form invoking a view causes ridiculous slowness in opening the form (40 mins). Using a table access has shortened the open time significantly. At this time Oracle DBAs at OOD have no clear idea why it is happening.
we are on 11.1 database with 11.5 EBSO
