Forms deployment on web

Hai guys,
i am interesting in deploying my forms(6.0)
in web.i have a little knowledge about
how to proceed.i achived installing Oracle
Application Server(4.0.7.1).But how to go head with Developer server?In what way I have to proceed.can anyone help me in this.
thanks in advance
Priya.

Whats the problem in searching? If you let me know I can see about making it better.
In the meantime here is a tip:
Eveything about forms is on otn.oracle.com/products/forms
There is a link to Forms Upgrade Center which tells you how to upgrade c/s to the web.
Aslo google on +"Oracle Forms" +upgrade and that page is the top link...
Not that difficult when you know how ;o)

Performance tuning of forms deployed on web

This is regarding forms deployed on the Web.
When a form is deployed on the web, every call form
results in downloading of the all the images required
for the toolbar. Analyzing the OAS log files shows that
more than 90% of the http requests from client to the
middle tier comprise of requests for these images.
Is there a workaround to ensure that these images can be
stored in a .jar file or a .zip file so that whenever
these are required, the .jar or the .zip file is
downloaded, thus resulting in significant reduction
of network traffic?
Also, is it possible to determine if the client machine is
using HTTP 1.0 or HTTP 1.1? Since HTTP 1.0 used by the client
results in the invocation of a new instance for every image
to be retrieved on the Server. Would there be any work arounds
for situations as these?
Also, are there any other measure to improve performance of applications on the web?
Thanx in advance.

We had the same problem when we deployed forms on web using jinitiator.when we look at the console window we observed that the images are loading again and again.we found the problem was with the image properties
(animation and frame properties), which you can set using Paint shop Pro or some other software. if the animation is set to repeat indefinetly, then the image will b downloaded indefinetly based on the time you set in the frame properties. we set the animation property to load only one time and that solved our problem. Hope this will help.

Problem with fonts in forms when deployed on web

Hi everybody out there! Please help me out. My problem is:
I have used developer server to deploy forms on web, but when a
form is shown on web, it takes some default settings for fonts
and colors instead of retaining the original colors and fonts
that i chose during creating forms. I want that forms retain
their original colors and fonts when deployed on web. How would
i do that ?? Someone told me to check the Registry.dat file but
i do not how to change the settings in registry.dat file. So
help me out and tell me how would i change color and font
settings for forms being shown on web by web app. server.
Thanking you in anticipation,
Cheema

Hello Neeraj!
The problem is no resolved:) In the Visual Attribute Group I changed the Font Weight to Bold in the Property Palette.
Thanks a lot for showing interest for my problem.

Problems about deploying Oracle web application (Forms, Reports)

I am going to deploy Oracle web applications (Forms and Reports) and plan to use the same server machine for both Application web server and Database server.
1. How can I enable SSL (for data encryption) on Application web server for Oracle Forms ?
2. Since both Application web server and Database server will use the same machine, do I still need Oracle Advanced Security for data transmission between Application web server and Database server if data encryption for transmission is required ?
3. Can I user Oracle Forms to call Oracle Report on web as I did in Client/Server in the past ?
Experts like you may have come across such problems. Would you please give me some opinions/ideas ?
Regards,
Richard

1. check the paper about the Forms servlet architecture on otn forms section for SSL tips.
3. Check the reports and forms integration paper on otn too.

Browser based InfoPath form deployed on a Claims based Web Application calling a Secure Web Service via Data Connection

hi,
We have a Browser based InfoPath Form deployed on a Claims based Web Application. We are tyring to call WCF Services that are secure using Certificates via the Data Connections on Infopath Form.
Earlier we used to get the Data in BCS External List via the WCF Services and the Data Connections used to get the Data from the BCS External List. Due to Performance Issues, we want to remove the BCS External List and straightaway call the secure WCF Services
via the Data Connections.
Have anyone implemented this scenario.
Thanks
Ram
Thanks Ram

Hi Ram,
As these are browser based InfoPath forms, you have two options
1) Deploy as sandboxed forms
In this case you have to create a secure store application id and then set the credentials for that account.
You then have to export the data connection to Data connections library and modify the .udcx file to utilize the newly created secure store application id.
This may sometime give issues related to sandboxed code service. You have to give permissions on the secure store for the user account which the sandboxed code service is running.
2) Deploy as administrator approved forms
This would be ideal way of doing things as you have full control over the web request if you write code behind InfoPath forms.
3) Deploy as a Hybrid solution
a) Write a full trust proxy solutions (extend SPProxyOperation class and override execute method) and make the web request call inside this and return the response
b) Invoke above operation from the sandboxed InfoPath form's code behind by SPUtility.RegisteredProxyOperation(four part assembly name, operation args)
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Srikanth

Error auto-deploying a Web App (.WAR file)

Hello,
Weblogic 6.1 throws a FileNotFoundException about 10% of the time for me when
auto-deploying a Web app. Has anyone else run into this? I searched the newsgroups
but didn't come up with anything, so I thought I'd start here.
My build/deploy cycle is managed by an Ant build file that creates a WAR file
of my web application and then drops it into $WL_HOME/config/mydomain/applications.
Occasionally when I do this, I get the error shown below. Originally I was building
the WAR file right in the ../applications directory, so I thought that might be
an issue. So, I started building the WAR file in a staging directory and copying
it into ../applications. No luck. Next, I tried deleting the original WAR file
from ../applications, and THEN copying the new one over from the staging directory.
Still fails occasionally.
Let's see. This is Weblogic 6.1 on Win2K. The only other thing is that my dev/build/staging
environment is on a network share, and it's from there that I'm copying the WAR
file to my local machine (where WL is running).
If someone has seen and/or knows what is up with this, great. If not, it's not
a show-stopper.
Thanks!
Cheers,
David

Michael,
This is a problem with 6.1 SP2 also -- a very annoying error. Without auto deploy
working properly, developers are spending alot of time waiting for WebLogic to restart.
HELP!!! we need this fixed.
I see the EXACT same stack trace (ERROR).

Deploying Existing Web App With New JWS

Hi all,
I've been banging my head against a brick wall for a few days on this, but I'm sure it must be something trivial. Hopefully someone here will have some advice...
In a nutshell, I'm working on an existing web application, running on Weblogic 8.1, in a clustered environment. I've added a new JWS web service which is largely standalone, but it uses controls from elsewhere in the application.
Locally, on my development box, it works perfectly - I can run it from Weblogic Workshop, and see the handy test form to run the web service, as well as seeing the WSDL by pointing my browser at http://localhost:7001/app/path/Service.jws?WSDL
However, I've now built the EAR for the whole application, and deployed it to our test environment (clustered - a mirror (hopefully!) of the production environment).
When I go to http://test-box:7002/app/path/Service.jws?WSDL I see a nasty-looking error page that looks like:
WebService ERROR
Error:
null
Stack Trace:
null
When I try the same URL without the ?WSDL on the end (so just http://test-box:7002/app/path/Service.jws), I see the nice Weblogic Web Service page, showing that it knows there's something there, but it has no content, just the 'Overview' tab, followed by:
Public Information
about Service.jws Web Service
and that's it - locally I see the same thing, but with options for viewing the WSDL and testing the service.
I'm confident that the URL is correct, because if I put rubbish in, I get a different error message.
Reading around, I've found lots of resources for 'how to deploy a web service to a production environment' for Weblogic 7, but much less for 8.1. I've seen references to jwsCompile, for example, which I think is specific to 7, because I can't find any references to it in the 8.1 docs, but perhaps that's wrong?
I'm pretty sure there's a configuration setting I'm missing, or a step in the deployment, but I'm stuck as to what it is!
Any advice gratefully received.
Edit: I should have mentioned that there are two other JWS's in the same app, both of which have the same symptoms as my new one (they've been there for a while, but are unused).

My gut reaction is that there might be an issue with the frontend settings not set up correctly, see 9.2 docs in lieu of 8.1 docs:
http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs92/webserv/setenv.html#wp220521
You should also open a support case as they could probably identify your issue quickly.

Viewing Icons in Oracle Forms on the Web - any solutions?

Has anyone had problems viewing icons when deploying forms on the web? In client server mode it used to be .ico files. I recently converted our files to .gif and added a register UI_ICON to recognize the icon images when running the forms. I still cannot get the images to appear (icons on buttons). Am I missing something? I am using Oracle Forms 6i Release 2 on Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2.2a) platform.

JDBC realm of FORM authentication in Web AS 640

Hi, All,
We try to port a web application from Apache Tomcat to WebAS 6.40. In the application we use FORM authentication based on Tomcat JDBC Realm. The configuration in Tomcat server.xml is like:
<Context...>
<Resource name="jdbc/mydb" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" username="..." password="..." driverClassName="..." url="..."/>
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm" dataSourceName="jdbc/mydb" digest="MD5" userTable="users" userNameCol="userName" userCredCol="passwd" userRoleTable="roles" roleNameCol="roleType"/>
</Context>
In database there are 2 tables for authentication purpose: users and roles. There are column userName, passwd in table users and userName, roleType in table roles (correlated with column userName). Then in web.xml we define FORM authentication:
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<realm-name>...</realm-name>
<form-login-config>
    <form-login-page>...</form-login-page>
    <form-error-page>...</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
Has anyone tried to port Tomcat JDBC realm mechanism of FORM authentication to WebAS 640? How do we need to configure J2EE server in Visual Administrator or deploy an application with DeployTool to implement the same features? And does WebAS support declarative MD5 digest algorithm in FORM Authentication?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

The way it works is that you declare which pages in your application have got security around them in your web.xml. Whenever a user tries to navigate to one of those pages, they are presented with the login screen. If they login successfully, then they are taken to the page they originally requested.
You should never actually have a link to your login page - the container will serve it when required.Ok, but how do i stop them entering the URL of the login page?
i get this error after logging in correctly if i directly access the login page:
"HTTP Status 400 - Invalid direct reference to form login page"
i tried adding this constraint but it still happens:
<security-constraint>
     <web-resource-collection>
          <web-resource-name>login</web-resource-name>
          <url-pattern>/staffLogin/login.jsp</url-pattern>
     </web-resource-collection>
     <auth-constraint/>
</security-constraint>
>
One possible way around this would be to create a database view which is a union of the two tables, thus giving you one "table" to query for the username/password/role combinations. That should satisfy the realm requirement.
Cheers,
evnafetsThats a good idea, il give that a shot. Thanks.

A.Gopi,
This is a frequently asked question in the Forums. I suggest you simply search the forums on "Upgrade 6i to 10g" and you will find a lot of information on the conversion. Here are a few highlights:
[ Oracle Forms Upgrade Center | http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html]
[ To convert forms oracle6i to forms10g conversion | http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3658347&#3658347]
[ Forms 6i to Oracle Forms 9i Upgrade Reference | http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/forms_upgrade_reference.pdf ]
I realize the last link is to a Forms 9i document, but it is still very relevant to your conversion question.
Hope this helps.
Craig...

URGENT : Form Developer6i on web

Hello,
I have 3 problems :
     1. How to know application of Form Developer run at client/server or web ?.. Are there any syntax or not?
     2. As for printer,
          How to know the printer's name if the applicaltion run on web ?
          How many printers are connected at report server ?
          and How to pop up dialog box printer's list at Form Developer ?
     3. For OS at 9iAS
          How Form Developer know OS at 9iAS ?
Regards.

1) Check online help for GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY and check for USERINTERFACE
2)Forms on the Web is same as client server so however you got the printername before - you can do the same for the Web deployed (however this applies ONLY if the printer is conncected to the app server). If you need the printer connceted to the client you may need a Java bean (look for orarrp in the reports OTN page).
3) See 1 but for OPERATING SYSTEM

Text not fit to size when deploy in web browser when upgrade to 10g

Hi,
I 'm currently evaluating the form upgrade from 6i to 10g (10.1.2).
The text on the boilerplate was fit to size in the form builder 10g , however after compilation of the upgraded form and deploy to web browser, those text item close to the field get truncated.
Moreover, the spacing of the LOV is increased in the web and it need to scroll down view all items.
Is there any configuration can be changed to revert back to 6i , otherwise it may required to patch on the text position again.
Cheers,
Ana

Hello,
I think that it is just a problem of difference between the Forms Builder font and the Java web corresponding font.
Have a look at the <FORMS_HOME>/formsxx/java/oracle/forms/registry/registry.dat file.

How to deploy the web.xml file when trying to use the JSP SDK from SAP?

I want to use the adduser.jsp which downloaded form SAP SDK samples to add user in BO, but I cannot run it sucessfully. I believe it's caused the web.xml file was not deployed appropriately.
could you please teach how to deploy the web.xml file for the JSP samples ?
Could you show me some sample of web.xml for the SDK jsp files? Thank you very much!

Ensure that you have followed below directory structure while deploying your web application.
   web_application_name
      WEB-INF
         lib
         classes
web.xml must be placed in WEB-INF. Ensure that you have included all the jar files and other necessary files in your application.
