Forms 6i with Oracle APPS

Question

Hi,
Could anybody tell me how could I install Oracle Forms6i on Linux? I want to test how the customization works in Oracle APPS.
Thanks,
Paul

Answer 1

Did you install Forms 6i on Linux? I am using Kubuntu Feisty 7.04 and would like to know whether I can install d2k6irelease2.tar. I am getting a compilation error.
Output!
