Forms 6.0-Server + OAS 4.0.7.1 + Oracle 8.0.5

Dear OTN members
I've installed Developer 6.0 Server + OAS 4.0.7.1 + Oracle 8.0.5
Enterprise on a Windows NT 4.0 SP 3 machine. Now, when I want to
start a forms module on the server i've got following message on
the client:
Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main class oracle.forms.engine.Main
coul not be loaded
What's wrong ?
Has anybody a docu about the installation of a developer server
(creating a forms web cartridge on an oracle web application
server) ?
Thanks in anticipation ..

  • Forms 6.0 Server and Appletviewer

    Help!!! I've been trying for days to get the forms 6.0 server to work with my forms through the appletviewer.When I try to run the form through the applet viewer using static.htm the developer splash screen comes up a java window opens then nothing happens.
    I can however run the form through developer forms designer in the appletviewer when I do run as a web form.

    Does your static.htm page have the username, password, and hostname in the SERVERARGS parameter? If not, try adding it and see what happens.

  • How to debug a form (servlet) in the Forms and Reports Server

    Hi:
    I have a new install of an application that ran perfectly on a different host using the Forms and Reports Server.
    I have installed the FRS on the new host and it is working fine. I can run the test form.
    When I run my actual forms app, I only get a blank screen in the browser and on the status bar it reports "Applet Started'.
    Is there a way I can turn on debugging or something so I can see at what point it is failing or why the form is not opening properly?
    Any advise would be appreciated.
    Many thanks.
    Bruce

    Thanks for the reply Frank. I have looked all through the Start menu but see no "Configuration and Migration". I assume it's because I only installed the Forms and Reports option, so I only have Forms Services, Reports Services, and the Universal Installer. No big deal - I've already setup tnsnames manually. I just like to use the Net Assistant when I can.

  • Retrieving PDF form from Application server

    hi all,
    i am saving a pdf form in application server and when the user wants the same file then i want to retrive that file from application and show the user and it should not be saved to presentation server only he should see it.
    iam able to save it to presentation layer using gui_download but my requirement is not to save it show only display the form.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sree
    helpful answers will be surely rewarded points

    Hi,
    1st solution - use DOI (desktop office integration). This way you can open Adobe, Microsoft, and others application documents directly in the SAP windows. See SAP document how to do it. It's not a little work, but it should fulfill your requirements.
    2nd solution - share the folder with the PDF documents and then with shell command (start
    server\folder\xxxxxx.pdf) at the front end access it and start the associated application at the frontend. I don't recommend this one, sharing folders at the appl.server is a security threat...
    You know about the points and useful answers...

  • Picking of Adobe forms from application server

    Hi Gurus
    We have SAP ECC 6.0. So far in our system we have text files and CSV excel files which comes from external system and lies in application sever and these are being picked up automatically by system and gets processed in SAP.

  • Forms and reports server characterset aix

    My database is in UTF8 mode and is displaying all characters correctly.
    However when I run a report using the forms and reports server it uses Western European Character Set.
    I have tried re-installing forms and reports server in order to fix this characterset issue, however I am not prompted for a characterset at installation time, so the forms and reports server is still set to the Western European Character Set, thus, some characters are not being displayed (inverse ?).
    I have tried specifying UTF8 for NLS_LANG in reports.sh but I only get garbage displayed.
    Can someone point me in the right direction please

    This issue has now been resolved. Changing the NLS_LANG setting in reports.sh to POLISH_POLAND.UTF8 was correct. The issue then was that greek symbols were displayed. This was a font issue and was resolved by amending a file
    $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/AFM/fontname (where fontname is the characterset you are using,eg in my case Courier ).
    the Change was to amend the line:
    EncodingSchemeProperty AdobeStandardEncoding
    to read
    EncodingSchemeProperty FontSpecific
    This fixed the problem for me , but Oracle also advise to amend the file $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/Tk2Motif.rgb:
    eg change the below line from:
    !Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-2=EE8ISO8859P2
    to:
    Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-2=UTF8 (or whatever charcterset you are using).
    Note that the exclamation mark has been removed.

  • Getting font problem for printing form in Production server.

    Hi experts,
                   We are getting problem while printing form in production server. As it gives no problem in Quality server while printing the same, the print is fine. We applied packages from 26 to 28 level for version 4.7. When we moved this packages to Production server we got problem of font while printing the form for some of scripts. But the surprise is that in Quality server the print is fine, no problem at all.
                  Can any one suggest me on this issue.
    Regards,
    Sagun Desai.

    Hi sagun,
    Please check the spool request generated on production server using tcode SP01.
    Goto dispaly spool request and check the spool.If the spool too displays your script correctly then there is a problem in printer connected to production server.
    The printer connected to the test server  might be rightly conffigured to print the output.Please check the settings of the printer connected to the production.
    Hope this helps.

  • Oracle 9i Forms in Client/Server Mode (Updates in Technical FAQ)

    Hi All,
    I'm doing an investigation for porting to Oracle Forms 9i and I've found the answers in Oracle 9i Forms Technical FAQ of February 2003. But since it's been more than three and a half years, I would like to know if the following information in the FAQ still holds?
    Upgrading to 9i
    What versions of Forms can I upgrade to Oracle9i Forms?
    Only Forms 6.0 and Forms 6i are supported for direct upgrade to Oracle9i Forms. Older versions of Forms should be upgraded to Forms 6i first.
    Can I run Client Server or Character Mode applications in Oracle9i Forms?
    No. Oracle9i Forms only supports Web deployment. Applications that need to be run in Client Server or Character Mode should remain in Forms 6i. Forms 6i will be supported until December 31st, 2004, or December 31st, 2007 with Extended Support for customers who wish to maintain such applications.
    What changes will I have to make to my application before upgrading?
    Many Client Server and Character Mode features have been removed from the Forms product for 9i. The removed features mainly relate to features that where only maintained in Forms 6i for the purpose of backwards compatibility. A detailed list of all of the obsolete features can be found on OTN (/products/forms/pdf/featuresobsolescence.pdf)
    Is there an easy way to find out if my modules use obsolete features?
    Yes. Oracle supply a separate utility with the Oracle9i Forms distribution "f90plsqlconv". This is a utility which will scan your files for obsolete usages and correct them where applicable. It will also alert you to any changes you may have to make manually.

    As far as I know it still holds: Forms9i isn't changed since then.
    What I don't see in the FAQs is if you move form client/server to the web that you must be aware that the forms are running on the application server instead of the client PC. So calls to TEXT_IO and HOST etc are also executed on the appserver. You should review those calls and decide were you want to have them executed...(use webutil if you want to keep the execution on the client)

  • How to start developing forms with weblogic server???

    I am a beginner. I saw someone working on developer 6i and I love the ease so I come to oracle. BUT now I find this weblogic server for desktop applications (forms) too.
    1. Please recommend me a book for developing desktop applications in weblogic server.
    2. Is it possible to use Mysql as database while developing forms in weblogic server?
    Many thanks

    I am a beginner. I saw someone working on developer 6i and I love the ease so I come to oracle. BUT now I find this weblogic server for desktop applications (forms) too.You have to keep in mind that Oracle Developer Suite 6i (Forms/Reports) is over 10 years old and was primarily a Client/Server development environment. Yes, a Forms 6i application could be deployed to the web, but infrastruction has changed many times in the 10+ years since Forms 6i was introduced.
    1. Please recommend me a book for developing desktop applications in weblogic server.Are you talking about an Oracle Forms application deployed through the WebLogic application server? If so, take a look at Developing Oracle Forms Applications or Oracle9i Developer: Developing Web Applications with Forms Builder. These are older books, but they will give you the basics of Oracle Forms development. Once you have the basics of Forms Development, then you can refer to the product documentation for specifics on the particular version of Forms you are using:
    Oracle Forms 10g Online Book - Contents or <a href="http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/index.htm>Oracle Fusion Middleware Documenation LIbrary</a> and select the Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer option.
    {quote2. Is it possible to use Mysql as database while developing forms in weblogic server?{quote
    You can use MySQL with your web app only if you are not using Oracle Forms! Oracle Forms will only communicate with an Oracle Database. There are methods available to access data from non-Oracle database, but they involved linking your Oracle Database to the non-Oracle database and accessing the data through the Oracle Database.
    Hope this helps,

  • Load balancing Oracle Forms in Application Server

    Hi,
    We're currently planning moving from client-server forms to webforms running on Oracle Application Server (10.1.2.0.2). To meet our high availability requirements, we plan to run our forms app servers active-active. We're coming a little unstuck determining the best method of load balancing requests between these however.
    Currently the main sticking point is determining whether to go for software or hardware load balancers. One of the main things we're unsure of is how much traffic we can expect to flow through the network. In our client-server environment we typically have 900-1000 active connections during peak load and ~350 forms coming in at just over 300Mb in total.
    If you have any experience load balancing between Oracle Forms on Application Server, we'd appreciate it if you could share details of you setup and how it's performing; particularly:
    * Whether you have software/hardware load balancing
    * The number of connections this supports
    * Details of the volume of network traffic you have
    Thanks,
    Chris

    We have implemented both hardware load-balancers and Webcache as load-balancer. Depending on the situation either may be the best solution. In general we recommend to use hardware load-balancers for production systems that require high availability. However, Webcache is very reliable as well and a Webcache instance can be recovered very quickly in case of a failure (use the cloning facility to create a copy of the instance on new hardware within minutes).
    When using https for your applications we do not recommend to use WebCache as there are several issues to cope with then, one is performance (https acceleration facilities are often part of hardware load-balancers).

  • Save interactive adobe form in presentation server through report program

    Hi All,
              We have developed a interactive adobe form in SFP transaction and we are calling this form
              from report program  and we are able to save the form in presentation  server.
              But my scenario is that user provides input in interactive adobe form and i need to save the interactive adobe form
              in display mode that to in  presentation server with input values provided by the user.
             could  any help to achieve this or guide me if i am  moving in a wrong path.
    Thank you,

    It all depends on what you want to do.
    If you are planning on users to fill out on-line form only and submit to SAP, it is pretty easy to do (that is once you understand how to create web dynpro and interactive form).
    You can also have users fill a form offline and upload to online and save it to SAP.
    You do need to know little bit about coding (ABAP or JAVA),
    but can be done w/ very minimum coding.
    If you are planning on doing in Web Dynpro ABAP,
    go to SE 80 and select WebDynpro and create form.
    To save data/form to SAP, you probably want to use BAPI or Function module already available so that you don't have to do much coding to save data.
    See some of these links for helpful tutorials. Thomas Jung has several good tutorials, but none of them probably have all the information you need... you just have to pick some from here and some from other places... If you have specific question, I will be happy to guide you...
