Forms 6i and Oracle 9i DB Server

Hi,
I have an application in Forms 6i (6.0.8.8.0) running on Oracle 8i (8.1.6) server. When I try to port the application to Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1.0) db server, I am facing some problems.
a. When I enter the login information in the application and click the 'Connect' button, the application terminates.
b. To double check I tried to connect to the Database with the SQL* Plus which comes with Forms, it also closes abnormally.
c. I am able to connect to the Database using 8i Client.
1. Is there any knows issues for Forms 6i in Oracle 9i ?
2. Is there any patches available which will solve this problem ??
Kindly Help
Regards,
AJ

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the reply.
More details of the error,
- I am able to connect to the database from 9i client SQL * Plus
- I am not able to connect to the database from SQL * Plus which comes with Forms 6i installation.
- The Forms application is crashing when I try to connect to the database and the following dump file is created

Hi,
I have been using client server till now, now planning to move to 10g. Got the developer suite 10g.
Tell me how and where to install forms/reports and Oracle application server... I mean forms reports should be on developer PC then what about application server? should it be on a different dedicated server? or can i have it on database server?
in case, if I install application server on one server and database is on another server then what about forms and reports?
please tell me which is the right option?

please tell me which is the right option?Ideally, you should have two separate server machines.
One for the database server.
One for the Application Server.
The Application Server is basically used for hosting your forms and reports, so you dont have to place the forms and reports on the developer PC or at any other server.

Auditing in oracle 10g database and oracle 10g application server

Dear friends,
We have oracle 10g application server and oracle 10g database server in place.My criteria is to audit users connected using oracle application user credentials to the database.
Can you please tell me how can i do it.
Thanks & regards,

Its the database connection you want to track. The session audit will show where it came from.
Auditing is turned using this command:
alter system set audit_trail = DB scope=spfile;
Note: The use of spfile will require a DB bounce before audit starts
To audit Sessions:
audit create session;
Query by Audit Type:
SELECT A.USERNAME,
OS_USERNAME,
A.TIMESTAMP,
A.RETURNCODE,
TERMINAL,
USERHOST
FROM DBA_AUDIT_SESSION A
WHERE USERHOST = <replace with iAS servername> ;
By User
SELECT USERNAME,OBJ_NAME,ACTION_NAME , TIMESTAMP
FROM DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL WHERE USERNAME = 'SCOTT';
Check for users sharing database accounts
select count(distinct(terminal)),username
from dba_audit_session
having count(distinct(terminal))>1
group by username;
Attempts to access the database at unusual hours
SELECT username, terminal, action_name, returncode,
TO_CHAR (TIMESTAMP, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),
TO_CHAR (logoff_time, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
FROM dba_audit_session
WHERE TO_DATE (TO_CHAR (TIMESTAMP, 'HH24:MI:SS'), 'HH24:MI:SS') <
TO_DATE ('08:00:00', 'HH24:MI:SS')
OR TO_DATE (TO_CHAR (TIMESTAMP, 'HH24:MI:SS'), 'HH24:MI:SS') >
TO_DATE ('19:30:00', 'HH24:MI:SS');
Attempts to access the database with non-existent users
SELECT username, terminal, TO_CHAR (TIMESTAMP, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
FROM dba_audit_session
WHERE returncode <> 0
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 'x'
FROM dba_users
WHERE dba_users.username = dba_audit_session.username);
Other audits you might consider:
audit grant any object privilege;
audit alter user;
audit create user;
audit drop user;
audit drop tablespace;
audit grant any role;
audit grant any privilege;
audit alter system;
audit alter session;
audit delete on AUD$ by access;
audit insert on AUD$ by access;
audit update on AUD$ by access;
audit delete table;
audit create tablespace;
audit alter database;
audit create role;
audit create table;
audit alter any procedure;
audit create view;
audit drop any procedure;
audit drop profile;
audit alter profile;
audit alter any table;
audit create public database link;

API Doc for oracle.forms.ui and oracle.ewt available (Forms 9.0 PJC)?

Hi there,
where can I get the Java Docs for the oracle.forms.ui and oracle.ewt Packages for implementing Forms 9.0 PJC?
Where can I get more docu about building PJCs? Found already some samples and
Thanks, Markus

At this time, the JavaDoc for these classes is not available.
As a general rule you will find that the Methods and properties of the underlying oracle.ewt.* classes closely mirror the equivilent java.awt.* classes, so you should be able to gain a bit more information that way.
And yes setDropDownVisible does pop the combo list down, but it's a protected method which might be why you're having problems with it?
- Assuming you are having a problem with it...

Deploying Forms with Forms6i/Oracle Internet Application Server 8i - need help!

Hi Gurus!
I am trying to setup the Oracle Internet Application Server 8i (Release 1.0)and deploy the forms to the web. The server is on Solaris. I have installed and configured the application server. I used the 'runform.htm'and 'test.fmx' to test the installation of the application server on the Server machine. In that case it works fine and shows the message 'Application Server is up and running'. Where as if I tried to access the same 'runform.htm'and 'test.fmx' from another client machines through a web browser it is not executing the 'test.fmx' and throws the following error:
" FRM-92060:Failed to connect to the Server. Bad machine specification:'hostname':9001"
Details...
oracle.forms.engine.RunformException:FRM-92060: Failed to connect to the Server.
I am using the default port#9001 to run the Forms server (i tried using another port and i got the same error). The web server is listnening on the port 7777.
I am not sure what needs to be fixed. Can someone please through some light on this?
Thanks!

The Oracle 8i jvm component (formerly known as JSERVER) was designed to support server side java.
This component was initially developed and included in the Oracle 8i rdbms 8.1.5.
Enhancements continued to be implemented with the 8.1.6 and 8.1.7 releases
IAS uses the same oracle 8i JVM from the rdbms to support java code on the middle tier.
Here's how the IAS version and the RDBMS version match up on the Oracle 8i jvm's features.
RDBMS 8.1.6 with IAS 1.0.0 (unix) / 1.0.1(NT)
RDBMS 8.1.7 with IAS 1.0.2 (new name IAS 9i)
8.1.6 / IAS 1.0.0 / IAS 1.0.1 supports :
session EJB's(1.0 spec), corba objects and java stored procedures
8.1.7 / IAS 1.0.2 (aka IAS 9i) supports :
The 8.1.7 implementation will support the 8.1.6 features listed above plus the ejb 1.1 spec (entity ejb's -- see below), servlets and java server pages.
note : in another thread Mr. Devin clarified the current status of the EJB 1.1 spec (entity beans)in the 8.1.7 solaris release and the future win nt release.
If I remember correctly, Mr. Devin reported a last minute issue has delayed the support for the entity bean feature but ejb spec 1.0 / 1.1 session beans are in place.
When the entity bean issue is resolved, a software patch needed to support the entity bean feature will be provided in a rdbms patch.

Forms 6i and Oracle XE Production

Hello,
I need some help here. I know that forms6i is not supported any more, but Forms 6i Patchset 17 worked with Oracle XE Beta.
Now, that the production version is available, it seems not to work. I cannot connect to the database.
I have tried to recplace the oci.dll from db home to forms home, but still does not work. Please, if anyone can help me!

I can't get this to work on my developers laptop.
Forms6i was installed and then XE last. Patch 17 was applied to Forms
C:\orant\NET80\ADMIN updated with the XE entry.
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\network\admin
I commented out the SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) in the SQLNET.ORA file
I restarted the listener for XE and then tried to connect to the database via forms builder and SQLPLUS80
ORA-12571: TNS packet writer failure
I turned on tracing for XE and tried to connect via forms builder again. The same 12571 was displayed and in the log file there was an ORA-12502 TNS:listener received no CONNECT_DATA from client
The XE version is Western. One thing I did note is that the Forms NLS_LANG registry entry is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE81508859P1 while the XE NLS_LANG registry entry is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
Potential Issues: Windows Media Center Version 2002 SP 2
McAffee Security Center including Firewall (he isn't willing to un-install). I have try to disable the firewall and even shutdown McAffee altogether but nothing is working on that front.
Looking for some direction on where to look and try next.

Forms 6i and Oracle 10g

Hi,
we got a new database running oracle 10g. So I installed the 10g Client on my workstation in a new oracle-home, because toad won't run with a 10g database with a 8i-client. Now I got 2 oracle_homes. I added the entry for the new database in both tnsnames.ora. When I try to run the forms6i-application nothings happens. When I try to connect the Forms6i-Builder with the new database, I got Dr. Watson.
Any ideas?
PS: I got Forms6i Patch 16 installed.

From metalink
Forms / Reports 6i + patchset 16 or patchset 17 is certified to work against Oracle Server (RDBMS)
10g Rel 1
Refer to the Metalink Certification matrices, for example:
- http://metalink.oracle.com
- Click on Certify & Availability
- Click on View Certifications by Product
- Choose Development Tools, click Submit
- Choose Oracle Forms 6i, click Submit
- Choose a platform e.g MS Windows 2000, click submit
- Check the box for 6.0.8.25.2 Patch 16, click submit
The Server column under Application Tier Certifications matrix shows that Forms 6i is certified to work against Oracle Server 10g. This includes the base release of Oracle Server 10g Rel 1 and any patchsets later applied to the base release.
Forms / Reports 6i has never been certified, nor will it ever be certified against Oracle Server (RDBMS) 10g Rel 2. (This is because Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported - see important note below)
Important Note: Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported e.g.
- If running in client-server mode, Forms / Reports 6i was desupported at end of January 2005
- If deploying over the web, Forms / Reports 6i (Oracle 9iAS Rel 1 Forms / Reports Services) was desupported at the end of June 2004
This means that Forms / Reports development will no longer provide an error correction service for Forms / Reports 6i (unless an organisation has purchased extended maintenance support) Therefore, Oracle strongly recommends that customers using desupported versions upgrade to a supported version e.g upgrade to Oracle Developer Suite 10g Rel 1 or 2 / Oracle Application Server 10g Rel 1 or 2

License for Oracle Forms 6i and Oracle Reports 6i

Hai there,
May I know if I can buy a license for 2 users for the development tools Forms 6i and Reports 6i.
How do I go ahead and buy the license on line. Where do I contact.
Please give me the details.
Thanks in advance.
Elizabeth

Please be aware that this version of Forms is desupported in one months time.
You can download the software from otn but you should contact your Oracle Account Manager about licensing.

Oracle Forms 9i and Oracle RDBMS 8

Hi,
Can anyone tell me whether Oracle Forms 9i will work against an Oracle 8 database?
We have an older version of Oracle Forms (Oracle Developer 6i) that I could also try against Oracle 8 but I'm concerned about conflicts with on the client-side with Oracle Enterprise Manager 9i and Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g (I have these installed already).
My organization does NOT intend to upgrade the Oracle 8 production database to a newer release. And yes, we have Oracle 9i and 10g RDMBS in production as well.
Thanks.

I, too, am a little confused. I will be loading Oracle 9i DB Personal Edition on to a Windows XP Professional, Pentium IV. I read in forums that 9i Personal is certified for this particular system whereas 6i Personal Edition is not. Is Forms and Reports 6i certified for XP Professional? If so, can I run 6i w/ the 9i Personal Edition? I am considering purchasing Oracle 9i Developer Suite, but only if it is certified for XP Pro and 6i isn't.
Please advise.

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

Sql server - to oracle - and oracle - to sql server

hi
is there any good tool for Migration from sql server 2008 to oracle 11g - and from oracle 11g to sql server 2008 ?
thank's in advance

Hello,
the SQL Developer Migration Workbench does not yet include online migrations of SQL Server 2008 (maximum version is 2005) to Oracle 11g. But an offline migration should work. Please refer to:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
SQL server 2008 migration problem
For the other direction from Oracle to SQL Server you should check Microsoft sites, e.g. start here:

JMX and Oracle's Application Server

Hello,
I am building a new EJB application and wanted to add logging support to it via Log4j (which I was considering doing using JMX). The EJB application must be deployable on both Oracle's application server and JBoss- (all development centers around Jboss now). Looking through the Log4j list archives it was recommended that the "loggers" be retrieved from JNDI. To get the loggers into JNDI and facilitate runtime configuration, I was considering using JMX (MBean) to set things up. Will my proposed solution work on Oracle's application server?
Thanks

Forms Modernization and Oracle ADF seminar, 6th June 2011

Oracle parter iAdvise and Oracle Product Management will be presenting a modernization seminar on the 6th June 2011. Full details of the event can be found here:
http://blogs.oracle.com/grantronald/2011/05/seminar_on_forms_modernization_and_adf_june_6th.html

Thanks for the reply.
I have the sample app and it works great. But I'm trying to re-create the OraMagMirrorTaskFlow from scratch. ie not starting from the starter-app.
This part of the app has the EventHandler which is deployed as an adflib into the consumer app. The OraMagMirrorTaskFlowConsumerApp looks like a normal ADF Fusion Web app.
I don't think it (OraMagMirrorTaskFlow) can be a ADF Fusion Web app because these always have a model and viewController project. The starter-app
(OraMagMirrorTaskFlow) only has a single project, which is why I think it was created as a Custom App.
