Forms 9i URL problem

I have developed an application comprising of about 25 Forms. I have fully configured FormsWeb.cfg file and the application is running fine on the local intranet. BUT THE PROBLEM IS that I have been unable to set an easy to understand URL to my application.
The format I am using for URL is the default format i.e. "http://Computer_Name:8888/Forms90/f90servlet".
Whereas I want to set the URL myself in some easy format like "Http://my_application.com"
Could somebody please guide me how to set the server URL in Forms 9i asap. It's urgent.
I need step by step cofiguration. Plz help.

Faisal,
though your URL states that you are using the Developer Suite OC4J port, I assume that you understand that for deploying Forms Applications to production, Oracle Application Server is required.
In Oracle Application Server, see the HTTP listener documentation, you can define a proxy that maps any kind of URL you like to the Forms URL.

URL Problem Oracle 10g Forms and Reports

Hello Room,
As this question is related to forms and reports both, I have posted it here. I have a system which needs to be deployed in Local Lan Network and also the same Local Lan user should be able to access the same application via internet. In Addition there are also suppliers, customers who dosen't have oracle installed but will be accessing forms and reports via the url through internet which will be a natted url to our public IP. I have loaded Oracle 11g on windows 7 and all my network clients are on windows 7. I have not loaded forms and reports 10g on server, but only database 11g is installed on server. My problem is listed in points below:-
1. Do I need to install forms and reports on server to achieve the above scenario ? or the local network installation of forms and reports on all client PC's will do ?
2. To start OC4J instance, shall i start it only on server through batch file while booting server, or it needs to be started on all client PC's to start work from client end ?
3. When i run forms from my client PC I get local url http://127.0.0.1/ to reach forms servlet which end up in http://localpc/.... from cookie redirect, whether this needs to be http://server/...... on all client PC's to reach the forms servlet ?
4. If I have to start url http://server/ instead of http://127.0.0.1/... automatically while running every form to reach forms servlet, how to achieve this ?
5. There are reports to be run from forms and parameters needs to be passed in reports from forms 10g. So in web.show_document shall i refer to absolute url for local acccess or http://server url as the same user can go to internet to access the data. ?
6. if I load forms and reports 10g on server, do I need to install forms and reports on client end seperately to gain access in local network ?
7. My forms and reports folders are located on server which are shared for access.
8. What will be the scenario in case of suppliers and customers who does not have anything installed on their PC and will access forms and reports through internet ?
I want to minimize my work. Please suggest me how to proceed about accessing forms, passing url from forms to reports in web.show_document, and Internet access url ?
Your help is highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL

How to debug a form module (Oracle 11G Forms) through URL.
My server OS is Unix. So i could not able to do the Debug Forms from the Form Developer.
It is displaying a message that "Cannot find the module". Becuase the system is trying find out the module in Unix system instead of ma local system(Windows).
I need to debug ma module through URL.
I can place the fmb and fmx in predefined form path in Server.
Please help me out to solve this issue..

This is a little unclear. If your goal is to use the Forms Builder Debugger while running your form on a Unix machine, this can be done. However, the form must first be in running order. So before trying to attach the debugger you must first be able to start it without the debugger. For example:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX
Once this is properly running you can turn on debugging. If your form won't even start, then using the Debugger isn't going to help you because it is designed to troubleshoot coding problems and not configuration problems.
So, do this to use the Debugger:
http://yourServer:OHS_port_number/forms/frmservlet?form=yourFMX&debug=yes
This will display a dialog box with some information. Do not click on OK yet as you will need this information to enter into the Forms Builder. Now, open the Forms Builder and click on Debug > Attach Debug. You will be asked for the information displayed in the dialog where you attempted to start the form. Enter it here (in the Builder) then click on ok in both places. To display the Debugger (in the Builder), click on Debug > Debug Console. Then from its toolbar click on the buttons related to what you want to monitor. Including a break point in your application code is often a more helpful way to use the debugger.
Most of this information is explained in the Forms Builder Online Help
Forgot to mention...
To debug runtime issues, refer to the Forms Deployment Guide here (this assumes you are using 11.1.2):

Appending param value to the netui:form action URL

Hi there,
I have got very simple problem.
I want to add 'dummyParam=dummyVaule' as a query string to the 'URL' whenever
NETUI form data is posted using submit button.
I have tried <netui:parameter> but it did not work.
I have the following snippet of code
<netui:from action="updateDetails">
<netui:imagebutton value="submit" >
</netui:imageButton>
</netui:form>
Thanks for your help
Regards
Charan

Hello Jonathan,
How are you generating the form action URL for the Struts portlet now? You should be able to include any parameters you want in the URL at that time.

How to form a URL dynamically in my portlet

hi all,
i have a requirement in weblogic portal 10.2,how do i form my URL dyncamically in my portlet which is as below
I have a requirement to dynamically form my URL. Further suppose I have a left navigation portlet which has 3 links and right navigation portlet should show the content for the respective links clicked on left navigation portlet.so in this scenario I need to dynamically create my url which I need to display on the right hand side portlet
Dynamic access to portlet B
Portlet A ------------------------------------------> Portlet B
The Url which has to be displayed on portlet B has to created dynamically in my portlet A,
i.e portlet A should dynamically access portlet B and the page of Portlet B which has to be displayed and create the URL,Once the URL is formed I should be able to access portlet B,
Portlet A ---> access Portlet B context ---> get portlet B context ----> get Portlet B output jsp page and hence form the url
Portlet A = (Portlet B context) + (get Portlet B output jsp page)
= Well formed URL of output jsp page which is in the right hand portlet B
If u have the source code pertaining to above/material.please share it with me.
Thanks

hi [email protected]
tell me my friend .. how can i extend
the standard Forms button in Java ? ... what is the tool for that ... can you explain more please .. or can you give me a full example ... i don't have any expereience on that .. i'm waiting for your reply .
Thanx a lot for your cooperation .

Henrik, the Java importer lets you call Java classes on the app server side - I think what Ali is trying to do is integrate on the client side.
If you want to add your own button then if you extend the standard Forms button in Java and then use this class name in the implementation class property then the Java for your button will be used instead of the standard Forms button. And since it has extended the basic Forms button it has all the standard button functionality.
There is a white paper on OTN about this and we have created a new white paper which will be out in a couple of months (I think).

Calling Webservice from Adobe form - Webservice URL Issue

Dear Friends,
I have developed a webservice and calling it from an Adobe form. I have downloaded the WSDL file from tcode SOAMANAGER. When I create a data connection from the Adobe form I use this WSDL file and the form elements gets created automatically and I drag and drop them into the form. The issue is when I click on the Submit(Execute) button the Webservice URL is always pointed to the client from where the file was downloaded and its hard-coded ( for example if i download the wsdl file from client 300 then the URL would be http://<location>/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/z_web_getmat/300/z_web_getmat/z_web_getmat). So if i execute the form from client 200 its not working. How to make this URL dynamic so that the webservice gets executed from the client from where this form is called. Please advice.
Regards
Sapient

Hi,
You have to handle it in your form on submit button calling the web service:
Write below java script code at submit event to change the URL at run time:
var tempsoapAddress = xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value;
var tempwsdladdress = xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value;
var ServerPath = body.systemConfig.system.rawValue;
var client = <Get Client from a data attribute>
var Soap_PreServerPort = "http://";
var Soap_PostServerPort = "/sap/bc/soap/rfc?sap-client=";
var SoapAddress = Soap_PreServerPort + ServerPath + Soap_PostServerPort + client ;
var Wsdl_PreServerPort = "http://";
var Wsdl_PostServerPort1 = "/sap/bc/soap/wsdl11?services=ZBAPI_PO_CREATE2&sap-client=";
var wsdlAddress = Wsdl_PreServerPort + ServerPath + Wsdl_PostServerPort1 + client ;
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value = SoapAddress;
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value = wsdlAddress;
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.execute(0);
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("soapAddress").value = tempsoapAddress;
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection.getElement("wsdlAddress").value = tempwsdladdress;
xfa.connectionSet.DataConnection = null;
Change the variable wsdlAddress as per your requirement. The above code is just a sample.
For getting the client pass it in a datasource variable attribute at time of downloading the form. At time of submit get the value of that variable and use it to form the url.

Vaibhav

Forms/Designer 10g - problem with attached libraries

I've problem with forms with attached libraries. All of libraries have removed paths. I can run all forms without any problem on my local application server from Forms Builder 9i or Designer 9i. I added all paths in registry FORMS90_PATH. WORKINGDIRECTORY in formsweb.cfg is blank.
Unfortunately I can't do it with Developer 10g on second workstation. I added all paths in registry FORMS_PATH. WORKINGDIRECTORY in formsweb.cfg is blank too. When form is running I get ORA-06508. I can't store all files (fmb, fmx, pll, plx etc.) in one folder because I've to use CVS. In this case I can't set any folder in WORKINGDIRECTORY.

Assuming Forms 10.1.2.x, FMX, MMX, PLX, and OLB files are found based on the value of FORMS_PATH which is set in default.env and not the Registry. This applies to runtime only. The Builder uses the Registry.
Understand that "runtime" refers to any time a form is displayed in a browser, regardless of whether is was started from the Builder or Application Server.
Also, be aware that if you have FMX, MMX, or PLX files which were created in older versions they must be recompiled using the 10.1.2 compiler.

Distinguishing between Form and URL variables

My mind isn't working like it should today, but what I am trying to do is:
1) alter a page via passing a argument in the URL
2) store this in a hidden field within the form on the page
3) retrieve the hidden field when the page is refreshed or in this case manipulated again for printing.
Basically, I have a report screen that allows the user to toggle between paging 1 page at a time or show all pages. If they click for all pages I pass a variable (allPages), and store it in a hidden field (allPages). Now if the user presses the "Print" button I reload the page stripping out form elements and put in Page breaks so that the report prints fairly nicely. Whats not working is my ability to differentiate between the parameter passed in the URL and the parameter contained within the form.
I am currently able top get the URL passed parameter via:
request.getParameter("allPages")
Is there a way to check for the form element, if it exist then use it else check for the URL passed parameter, or default it.
Thanks in advance.

I wonder, why you didn't use two different name for the parameter via URL and via Form, so your program should can easily distinguish where come from where, am I right?
The other way, you may check the method, whether it is "post" or "get", the get method is what you said as via URL and post normally use by form. But I think, it is better use two different parameter for Form and URL.

Forms URL problem

Hi,
I have the following problem with the forms :
When I try to run the form from the Manage menu, the address generated have the 'https://host/pls/dad/' twice.
Ex: 'https://host/pls/dad/https://host/pls/dad/schema.....'
If I create the link manually in a page, it is working but then, I receive the same problems with the buttons in the form.
I have iAS 1.0.2.2 installed with Portal version 3.0.7. on W2K.
Could it be a behavior due to the new iAS?
Please help!
Regards,
Jacques.

Submit signed pdf form to url returns to local view of url

Hello,
I am currently using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8, Adabe Acrobat 9 Pro and Adobe Reader 9.
I want to make a form that can be filled and signed with Reader. I created the form with the the designer and added a submit button that sends the page to a URL. I send the page as an PDF to the url.
I can create the form so far no problem. I also can make it fillable in the Reader. Filling in the form and signing in the Reader also works fine but when I perform the submit the result page in the browser isn't the url specified in de settings of the button.
The url is something like this: C:\Users\jt\AppData\Local\Temp\A9R9D46.htm
The content of the page is the one from the web page specified in the url where de PDF is submitted to but it has to be show in the specified location and not local in a temporary html file.
Does anyone know how I can go to the url specified in the submit button not locally but on the actual web page.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Acrobat Pro allows users to export the form data a number of different ways. For example, in Acrobat 7, use the menu item "Advanced > Forms > Export Data from Form...". There are also various JavaScript methods that allow one to export a data file (e.g., exportAsFDF).
