Forms 6i and developer 10g on the same machine

Can i have forms 6i and developer 10g on the same machine

Jacob,
Were you installing any patches to the Forms 6i?? I think your problem was a mix up in the environmental variables.
multiple versions of the same Oracle product CAN* be installed successfully on the same machine, it has been done by many.
Do not generalize one experience, since you are working on VMware, try them on one, it's easy to revert to a snapshot ;)
Install Forms 6i first patch it configure it and restart your machine and install DS 10g, On this machine I have Forms 6i and DS 10g installed at this same moment, and it's been working fine for that last 2 years.

How to use Forms 5 and DevSuite 10g in the same machine

Hello everybody,
I have installed forms 5 and IDS 10g in one machine and both the versions of the forms were working simultaneously. Now I have un-installed both the versions of the forms and re-installed in the same machine. Installation was successful. but I am not able to connect to the database in forms 5. It shows TNS could not resolve service name. TNS is created in both the versions with same name as well as different name. The IDS is working fine. Please help.
Thanks and regards

Sukanto,
What error are you getting? One potential problem you will have with more than one version of Oracle Dev Suite installed is keeping the TNSNAMES.ORA synchronized. I've found the easiest solution to this problem is to add the TNS_ADMIN registry key to each Oracle Home so I can share a single copy of the TNSNAMES.ORA file. You can add this entry by starting the Window Registry editor (regedt32.exe or regedit.exe) and navigate to the following registry hive:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE => SOFTWARE => ORACLE => HOME? (where ? represents the number of the Oracle Home, eg., 0-9).
In your example, Forms 5 should be in HOME0 and IDS 10g should be in HOME1. Open each home and add a new "String Value" and name it: TNS_ADMIN. After you have added the new String Value entry, edit the String Value and enter the path to the copy of your TNSNAMES.ORA that is working. Then do the same thing with HOME1 and exit the Registry. You should be able to connect to your database with Forms 5 and IDS 10g. Normally, changes to the registry do not require you to reboot your computer, but I have seen where this is necessary - though not very often.
Note: Always ensure you have a BACKUP of the Windows Registry before you make any changes. If you uncomfortable modifying the Windows Regisitry, then I don't recommend you make this change.
Hope this helps.

How do we Install Forms 6i and Server 8i on the same machine (PC)

Well i am Trying to Install Forms6i and Oracle 8i Server on the same PC and not succeeding. Can anyone help.

Follow below steps
1. Remove all Oracle versions in your machine. In NT, To Delete Oracle, delete HKEYLocalMachine/software/oracle , HKEYLocalMachine/software/services/oracle* registry keys, restart m/c and delete all oracle home directories.
2. Install Forms 6i Server in the default home directory. If you want to develop forms in same m/c, use custom installation and select forms server, forms developer and webdb listner ( if needed ).
3. Install Oracle 8i in a different oracle home.
4. configure oracle forms server and webdb listner. ( See Note:107596.7 in matalink)

Designer 6i and 10g on the same machine?

I have Designer 6i and corresponding repository on my machine.
The problem with 6i I can't save diagramm in HTML format
I believe I can save in HTML format in 10g or other?
Can I install on the same machine 10g designer?
should I configure new repository?
TIA

See my update on your earlier question.
As for running 6i and 10g on the same machine, yes you can do it. You just have to install them in separate Oracle Homes, and be careful when you tell them which version of EXP and IMP to use. There is one MAJOR caveat, however. They cannot use the same Designer Repository - 6i client won't talk to a 10g repository and 10g client won't talk to a 6i repository. You can upgrade a 6i repository to 10g with the RAU, but take a backup before you do - the only way to go back is to restore your backup. Besides, I think that if you upgrade to the last supported version of Designer 6i (you should be able to get it from MetaLink) you will get the Publish Diagrams utility.
Frankly, my opinion is that there is only one reason to stay on 6i - if you need to generate and support 6i client/server Oracle Forms. If you don't use Oracle Forms, or if you have moved on to Web Forms with the middle tier Forms Server, I'd recommend an upgrade to Designer 10g and Developer 10g.

Is it ok to install Report developer suite on the same machine?

Hello All,
Recently I have upgraded my Oracle Forms 5.0 to Form 6i.
Now I want same process with my reports.
Our current reports version is 3.1.
1) Is it possible to upgrdae report 3.1 to report 6i?
2) I have installed my form 6i developer suite in window XP. Is it ok to install Report developer suite on the same machine?
3) if answer of 2 is yes, Do I need to install in another home?
Please note: My main goal is to upgrade reports in 10g.
But I think we can not upgrdae report 3.1 to 10g directly. So I am going 3.1 to 6i and then go for 10g.
Regards,
D

still waiting for response.

so have to install oracle 10g first and then Oracle 8i on same machine..

To remove file from iPhoto and the HD simply put the files in the iPhoto trash and then go iPhoto Menu -> Empty trash.
This works if you're using iPhoto in the default setting, where the files are copied to the Library on import. If, however, you have a referenced library, you'll need to trash the files in your own folder structure yourself.

Installation of Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader on the same machine

What is the recommendation from Adobe on having both Adobe Acrobat Pro/Std installed and Adobe Reader installed on the same machine?
Is there an 'official' or 'recommended' statement for this?

I think it is not recommended or supported for versions earlier than X.

Different Web Server and JDK Version on the same machine

Dear All,
There's a Orion App Servevr w/ JDK1.3 that running JSP. And I
have installed the IBM websphere 5.0 SP2 w/ JDK 1.5 for another application in the same machine. When I tried to
start the orion using cmd "java -jar orion.jar" for the original application, I encountered error as
follow:
C:\orion>java -jar orion.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: <class: com/evermind/server/ApplicationServer, method: na signature: <Ljava/lang/String;Lcom/evermind/util/ErrorHandler;>Lcom/evermind/server/ Application;> Incompatible object argument for invokespecial
Whats the possible solution? May anyone give a suggestion? Thanks

try to specify the absolute path for java such as

Multiple Middleware Homes and Node Managers on the same machine.

Hi Experts,
Before I explain the issue we are facing, I would like to explain the environment.
- Single Machine.
- Multiple Weblgoic homes (I mean two weblogic software installations).
C:\Oracle\MiddlewareODS
C:\Oracle\MiddlewareIAM
- MiddlewareODS has a domain called "ODSDomain" with the maanged servers ods and oif.
- MiddlewareIAM has a domain called "IAMDoain" with the managed server oim,oam,oaam,and oif.
Our requirement is to have seperate nodemanager for each domain and they belong to different weblogic software homes.
- MiddlewareODS node manager port is 5556
- MiddlewareIAM node manager port is 5557
Though we configured different port for each node manager , we are not able to start both the node managers. We are able start only one node manager at a time.
My question is, Can each weblogic home has it's own node manager on the same machine ?
Thanks

Nodemanagers are not domain specific. Thus you can have one nodemanager in one machine and have multiple servers from multiple domains managed on that machine via this single node manager. You just need to update your nodemanager.domains properties file to have all the domains which your single nodemanager would listen to.

Running JDK 1.2 and 1.3 at the same machine

Can I run two versions of JDK at the same machine? IS there any drawback of doing this?
thanks,

i have jdk's 1.1, 1.2, 1.3.1_04 and 1.4.0_01 and jre's 1.3.1_01, 1.3.1_04 and 1.4.0_01 installed on my machine without problems.
but as the last post indicates it can get confusing some times.
i use batch files for different builds to set the path as needed.
the only issue I know of where I can't switch from one to another is in my browser where i have the (last installed) 1.4 runtime but i can use the different appletviewers for testing in this case.
in case anyone is wondering why i have all these installed. i use
1.1 for some applets because if you can get away with just this people generally don't need the plug-in.
1.2 is old but sometimes i use it for some stuff for servers that don't have anything newer
i.4 is what i use normally
1.3 i need to use the ActiveX bridge and packager which was removed in 1.4 but is coming back for the next release.

HCM Process and Forms - Create and End record using the same form scenario

Hi All,
I have the following requirement while using HCM Processes and Forms: Using one form/scenario I need to both create a record or be able to end a record for infotype 841. When looking at the back-end service SAP_PA I have operations Create, Change, Change without delimiting and Delete. My requirement would be to do both a create and a delete I guess, but these two can't be selected at the same time while configuring the form scenario.
I was thinking about doing somethign with the startdate and enddate instead of using the effective date. But I have no clue how to do that.
How would this be possible?
Thanks,
J

You are correct in assuming that you cannot have a create and delete on the same infotype. The config will not allow it. Instead, configure the create and then do the delete via a call to you own method in the workflow or via the advanced generic service
Cheers

Can I run iPhoto 09 and iPhoto 11 on the same machine?

A few months ago I bought a MacBook Air, which came pre-installed with iPhoto 11. On a recent trip I tried using it to edit a lot of photos I took. This program is appalling! So many clicks to carry out edits (3:1) compared with iPhoto 09! Cropping is a nightmare on a trackpad; it's almost impossible to nail down the crop to the right size and position. The comments area is ruined; I annotate all my photos and this used to be really easy, with the comments area right next to the photo in the bottom left of the screen. Now I have to go through mouse clicks to access the comments and only two visible lines are available and then scroll bars kick in. To view the comments I now have to fiddle around trying to hover over the comments box, instead of just glancing at the corner of the screen.
Who designed this beast? Who could possibly think its editing ergonomics are an improvement over iPhoto 09? As a result, I want to install iPhoto 09 on my MacBook Air, which I'll do using by using the wireless disk function from my Mac Pro. The question is, do I have to de-install iPhoto 11 first, or can the programs sit side-by-side? I shall put the iPhoto 09 icon in my dock so I launch the right version.
I know this post contains a complaint, which is because I want to know if other users share my frustration. However, I have also sent a lengthy feedback to Apple in the hope they may simplify the editing in iPhoto 12.

Hi Jayson,
I never tried to install SAP on XP myself... only heard that someone had issues with it, and it is not officially listed in PAM.
For separated ABAP and JAVA systems, you can install them in any order.
For ABAP+JAVA, you have to install ABAP first, or both at the same time.
