Forms designer for 10g - command

Hi,
Is there a forms designer for Oracle 10g?. I am on HPUX.
I cannot find f90desm in $ORACLE_HOME/bin or the command "find / -name *desm* -print" produces nothing.
I can only see these files under $ORACLE_HOME/bin

Right, I have installed the Oracle Application Server Forms & Reports Services ( 10.1.2.0.2). So I need to install the developer suite for forms builder, correct?.
One more question, if I install the developer suite, I still would need to the Forms & Reports services to deploy forms & reports on the web. Is this correct?. So I keep the forms & reports services intact & install developer suite as well?
Thanks

Form Design for Functionality

How can I create a button to allow more than one form to be added for different providers by the submitting agency.

I'm not quite sure what those buttons are supposed to do.
If they are supposed to show a different forms to fill out depending on the Partners then you can use show/hide logic and a choice field (e.g. Dropdown field to pick a Partner) to display the right fields for the specified Partner. You basically create a single form good for all Partners but only display certain elements depending on the selected Partner.

Form designing for compatibility between Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Professional

I have designed a Form using LiveCycle Designer 7.0. It contains a few subforms and lot of javascripting. One of the javascript logic I am using is to display a subform when a user clicks a radio button and hide it when the user clicks another radio button. The subform contains Text field, Numeric field, Rectangle, Line, Button. This worked well with Acrobat Reader 7.
After I installed Acrobat Professional 7, my form breaks. I did a quick test to see where it breaks and came out with the following conclusion.
1. If the subForm contains an Image, Line, Rectangle or Circle control, the subForm rendering throws error (Adobe Acrobat 7.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close) when I click on the radio button to display the subform.
2. If the subForm contains Text control, it is displayed even if subform is invisible.
3. If the subForm contains Checkbox, Radio, Dropdown list, List Box, Button, Submit By Email, Submit, Print Form, Reset Form; these controls are never displayed even if subform is visible.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the response.
I need some clarification. When you say 7.0.5 version, are you expecting 7.0.5 version of Reader or Professional?
Here's the steps I followed:
I originally had Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 and Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and everything worked great.
Now I have uninstalled Designer and Reader and installed
Acrobat Professional Tryout. This installs Acrobat Professional version 7.0.0 and Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 (which is the same as above). Now the same forms which were working earlier are not working as expected.
Please note that I have NOT installed Acrobat Reader 7.0.5. How do I find out what version of Reader does Designer user for PDF preview?
If I separately download Acrobat Reader 7.0.5, how do I tell Designer to use that version for PDF preview?
Thanks,
Satish

How to use form design for both online and Offline Scenrio!

Hi All,
I have created the forms using WebDynpro context with ZCI layout for Online scenario.
There are some fields which need to be prefilled and are read only.. Header fields.
There is no interface structures created seperately but the interface is constructed through webdynpro context.
Now that I have to use the same for offline scenario, I don't see layout in SFP of form. I can create a structure for Importing fields but there is no Layout for mapping?
Do I need create seperate forms for this as I have some prefilled hedaer fields which I can't pass using download beacause there is no context design available for this?
Regards,
Srinivas

you could either create a separate form for your offline form using Data Dictionary interface or use the Data Dictionary interface for both of your forms.
You do have the option of creating your own XML file for your offline form - you may be able to copy the XML code out of your online interface, save it to a file and use that for your offline interface - i'm not 100% sure on this as I've never done that.

Running programs designed for 10g Ex on 11g Ex

I am one of those individuals who over the last couple years has been frustrated because of Oracle 10g will not run on 64bit Windows. I use a Oracle 10g Ex based program that was developed by a third party. It runs successfully on a ADM 64 bit system that runs Windows XP (not 64 bit Windows). All attempts to get it to run on Windows Vista or Windows 7 64 bit have failed. I seen on a separate post that the final version of 11g Ex is expected to run on 64 bit. Does that mean that any program that could used 10g Ex can now use 11g Ex.

Basically, I'd say yes. Some things changed a little bit from 10g to 11g, e.g. the case sensitive password handling, some parameters, etc., so there might be a few points to reconfigure in your applications... You might get a more precise answer if you outline which database features your applications use right now.

Pdf reader requirements for forms designed in Livecycle

HI guys,
I have designed a few dynamic pdf forms that was developed using Livecycle Designer ES. These forms are online fillable forms and I will be uploading these on my site so my users can open these forms in their browsers, complete the form online and print it out for their personal use. These forms are more like online tools for the users. For this, I also have to provide a Troubleshoot guide to my users so they can refer to this if they are unable to open the forms or having trouble viewing the forms properly. So right now I am working on creating this Troubleshoot documentation and I dont want to give the wrong info to my users so I have some clarifications and some doubts and wondering if you guys can help me out..
1) From what I understand, I think the users need to have atleast a v.8.0 of Acrobat Reader in order to fill these dynamic forms that was designed in livecycle designer ES. This is right? I think so based on my memory since I believe I read this somewhere. Would you be able to clarify this? Have I got the right version?
2) Also, further to this I understand that the users need to have an Acrobat reader browser plug-in in order to open the pdfs in their browsers. So, I will be adding a list of various pdf plug-in download links for various browsers.
3) I was wondering, what happens if the user doesnt have acrobat reader installed in their computer? What are the common other pdf readers that various users use? I know there are tons out there but I am trying to understand the common ones that majority of the people use other than Acrobat Reader. I mean users having mac or other OS. Will these forms also work in other pdf readers? Is there are a list of various pdf readers & the versions requirements in order for these livecycle forms to work?
4) Other than the above points, do you think if I need to mention anything else in the troubleshoot documentation? Any points I may have missed?
I am sorry..this is the first time I am uploading these online forms and I am trying to understand the requirements so I may be able to assist my users if they do experience any problems. So any help is very much appreciated!
Thank you..

Some users are having problems viewing my forms I created using livecycle:
1) I have a created a few dynamic forms designed using livecycle designer ES..In order for my users to open these forms, they need to have atleast Adobe acrobat / reader version 8.1 or higher to view these dynamic files. However, quite a few of my users are saying that they are still unable to open these forms directly from their browser although they have downloaded the latest Acrobat X version and the browser plug-ins in their computer. It happens to both windows and mac computers. But they are able to download these files and open it directly from their adobe reader though. It happens with all browsers for them...some of them have even called up mac support as well as adobe support and they were advised that it could be a problem with my forms that I find hard to believe since it opens in my computer and opens for a lot of other users. Its only a few users still having this difficulties and I can't understand why! They have also tried enabling "Adobe Reader" as a default problem to open pdf files by opening the adobe reader. They also have tried uninstalling and re-installing the readers and still the same problem. These LC files just dont open inside their browser for them.
2) Also, I recently uploaded a dynamic file in acrobat file sharing. I noticed that when I click on this file sharing link, it also shows the message that I dont have the latest reader installed (something similar to what my users say about my forms), Why am I getting the below message when I have the latest adobe installed? I am able to open other dynamic xml forms in my browsers..why does this happen? I wonder if other user's problem who open my forms from my site is similar to this problem I have with acrobat file sharing...not sure... (example url: https://acrobat.com/#d=fs-E6Bqml8r0FWI8aMu09g )
To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from etc...etc...etc..
What can be the problem when the adobe version is already updated and also the plug-ins are updated too?? I have read a lot of links in adobe site itself which suggest various methods to test out the forms, browsers, plug-ins, etc..and I also understand that it doesnt work for iOS & Android devices, but this problem still happens to some users even after trying out these troubleshoots. Can someone plz explain if there are other limitations or solution for these users?

"Command I" shortcut in Preview - designated for show/hide toolbar AND show inspector?

In the Mac Preview App, I tried using the the 'command I' shortcut to show/ hide the toolbar, but it brings up the inspector instead. Is the shortcut is designated for both these functions?

Actually the Toolbar hide/show isn't "cmd i" it's "cmd shift |"
That little key on the far right edge between the "delete" and "return" keys. The same key that has "\" as the main function.

Converting Forms 6i to 10g on Linux

I hope this will help ...
REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS
The Comet6i application is be migrated to 10g in two phases.
•     Phase-I : Migrated from Comet6i Application to 10g on W2K Server.
•     Phase-II : Made the Comet10g Application Linux Compatible.
PHASE I
In the Phase-I, the COMET6i application is migrated to 10g on Win2K Server. The following tasks are to be carried out during this phase.
1.     Source Code Verification
2.     Upgrading of Comet Application objects to 10g
3.     Migration of 10g specific forms to be done individually
4.     Check for the completeness of the process.
Pre-requisites
i.     Developer/200010g IDS is installed on all COMET Workstations.
ii.     Change the Windows Registry value of TNS_Admin = M:\OraXP\NET80\admin
Step 1: Source Code Verification
Checked out the COMET6i version3.5 of the application source code from Harvest comet6i repository. Excluded any unnecessary files from the application. Created an excel/spreadsheet that contains all of the files sorted by category (forms, libraries, menus, graphics, utilities and reports).
Step 2: Upgraded Application
I.     Did the code changes in 6i forms
1)     RUN_PRODUCT: Every occurrence of run_product in forms has been replaced with CALL_REPORT procedure which is in the attached Library Comfun.pll.
2)     V$SESSION: Wherever there is a query for selecting OSUSER from V$session has been replaced with :GLOBAL.ntuser.
3)     WIN_API: WIN_API.get_windows_username replaced with :GLOBAL.ntuser.
II.     Upgraded the forms from 6i to 10g in batch mode.
Upgrading of COMET Application is done in the following sequence:
1)     Library files (.pll/plx): Opened each library file in iDS and compiled it. This created the 10g version of each library.
2)     Form files (.fmb/.fmx): Started with form files that do not have references (List : MST021, MST027, DEFAULT, MODEL, MST046). Opened these forms individually in the iDS and generated it.
3)     Migrated all the remaining forms to 10g in batch mode using Oracle utility frmcmp.exe .
Step 4: Checked for the completeness.
1)     UNIT TESTING: Unit testing was done after complete migration of the forms 6i to forms10g on Win2K Server and following problems were fixed.
2)     CANVAS & FIELDS WIDTH: When we upgraded to 10g forms, some of the fields’ width was changed and canvases were overlapping to each other. This was due to non-existence of the parent property classes. We ensured that every master form is present in the directory before up gradation.
3)     FILE NAME EXTENSION: We have renamed every form / report / icons / libraries to upper case and extension of the files in lower case for uniformity across modules. (eg: STK001.fmb, STK01.rdf, COMFUN.pll)
PHASE II
In the Phase-II, the COMET10g application is made Linux Compatible.
Issues
Following issues are identified for carrying out this task.
1.     Case sensitivity of Linux
2.     OS Related Function Calls and Built-Ins
3.     Batch Commands
4.     HOST Commands
Solutions
The possible solution to the above mentioned issues are:
1.     Case Sensitivity : It is suggested that all forms, reports as well as libraries to use UPPER CASE to eliminate this issue. This will provide uniformity in coding.
2.     OS Related Function Calls: OS routine calls such as WIN_API routines has to be changed to corresponding Linux function calls
3.     Batch Commands : Batch commands used in the forms has to be changed to Linux shell scripts.
4.     HOST Commands : These commands are to be changed to corresponding Linux commands.
Steps
1.     Generated XML for 10g forms in batch mode.
1)     frmf2xml.bat: Using Oracle 10g utility frmf2xml.bat; all 10g forms were converted into XML format for editing purpose.
2.     Utility developed to address the case-sensitivity issue of linux.
1)     A basic utility is developed to change the following keywords in the XML file.
2)     FORM Calling Routines : All the form-names were changed to upper-case in CALL_FORM, NEW_FORM & OPEN_FORM built-ins.
3)     PROPERTY VALUES CHANGES: Values of LibraryLocation, ParentModule, ParentFileName, and IconFilename are changed to upper case to ensure compatibility with Linux OS.
3.     Fixed the basic problems in the XML file itself using the utility.
4.     Converted the XML back to fmb.
1)     frmxml2f.bat: Oracle’s frmxml2f.bat utility is used to convert xml files back to FMB format. All master forms are done individually and rest all files in batch mode.
5.     Generated the fmx on Linux in batch mode.
1)     Created a directory structure in Linux for Comet Development.
2)     WINSCP Utility: Copied all fmb files to Linux server using WINSCP utility.
3)     frmcmp_batch.sh: Oracle’s frmcmp_batch.sh shell script used to compile all the fmb to generate fmx i.e. runtime in Linux environment.
6.     Icon files are bundled to a jar file.
1)     icons jar file: Icon files were bundled to a jar file with the support of DBA.
2)     UI_ICON_Extension: Utility search to change the registry to show icons / bmp / gif files as icons
7.     Copied the reports to Linux server.
1)     rwconverter Utility: All COMET 6i reports are upgraded to 10g using Oracle utility rwconverter.exe in batch mode, and then copied to Linux Server using WINSCP facility.
8.     Tested the application for functionality.
1)     UNIT TESTING: Unit testing was done on each form for testing the functionality and data flow by COMET TEAM. The following points are to be taken care, before going to live:

i think you better hire a professional consultant for this kind of help, seeing that the requirements are a bit complicated.

Why does the trace file indicate that the rwEng engine died with error?+
Again why does the rwURLEng engine start up and then immediately shut down?+
Thank you for your help on this issue.+

OK, I did this once and did not follow the oracle docs
If you saved your targets.xml before you started you might save it by renaming it back.
(Double check to make sure you did not miss a rename)
Otherwise, all I have to offer is my rough notes:
1. Backup the file $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/emd/targets.xml.
[oracle@ias02 emd]$ pwd
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/sysman/emd
cp targets.xml targets.xmlbackup
2. Modify the file targets.xml by changing all the occurrences of the wrong reports server name by the correct one.
i.e. Replace rep_test_midtier with rep_new (4 places - changes)
Copy the conf file as follows: ( this will named different from system to system )
cp /u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/reports/conf/rep_pia_oracleas.conf /u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/reports/conf/rep_fam.conf
run this script:
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/bin/addNewServerTarget.sh rep_fam          (change rep_fam to new report server name)
3.Update the changed configuration .
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/dcm/bin/dcmctl updateconfig -ct opmn -v -d
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/dcm/bin/dcmctl resyncinstance -v -d
4. Restart the Application Server Control Console
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/bin/emctl stop iasconsole
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/bin/emctl start iasconsole
In the file:
/u01/app/oracle/product/midtier/reports/config/reportsConfig.properties
Change the Reports_Server_Name setting from rep_test_midtier to rep_fam (change rep_fam to new report server name)

The other option is to reinstall

Error in forms Compilation in 10g. Internal Error Problem.

Hi,
I am involved in Migration of Oracle Forms, currently running on 9i DS, to 10G DS.
As of now there are no compilation issues encounted on 9i DS. But while compiling on 1oG DS, I am getting following error.
Error 801 at line 1, Column 1
Internal Error [hshuid: LU invalid].
I am not able to interpret the problem. The form has PLL and OLB attached to it.
Can any one come across such problem or can suggest for any possible option to get out of it.?
Thanks in Advance,
Jagadeesh.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your early reply.
Below are the details.
1. Which product versions are involved? Do not use marketing names - use x.x.x.x format. For example 9.0.4.3
--Forms [32 bit] Version 10.12.0.12
--Oracle Database 10g enterprise edition Release 10.2..0.3.0 - 64 bit
2. On which platform are you trying to compile these modules?
--Windows XP
3. What is the database version to which you are connecting?
--Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit
4. Are you compiling in the correct order? You should (in most cases) compile PLLs then MMBs then FMBs.
--Yes, I compiled in the same order. But still getting the same error.
5. 801 probably a PL/SQL error. Is it possible that you are using an obsolete built-in or other command?
--Yes, I too felt it is a oracle error. But i was expecting a ORA before it.
6. Which ever version you are using, have you installed the latest patch for that version? The latest for 10g Release 1 is 9.0.4.3 and the latest for 10g Release 2 is 10.1.2.2
--I need to contact DBA's to get to know about the patch.
I will update you on Patch side, Meanwhile could you guess, what might have went wrong.?

Migrating Forms 61 to 10g - Forms Builder Crashing

We are migrating from Forms 6i to 10g. The application works on a HP-UX box, and since we do not have the necessary setup done in the Unix box yet, we are trying to compile the forms in Windows before-hand to see if we can pre-empt some errors.
I have written a batch command to compile the 6i forms in windows (Windows XP) by invoking the 10g Forms Builder.
While it works like a charm for most of the forms (we have around 500 forms), there are a few forms for which the compiler/builder simply crashes. The .err file created for this form has absolutely nothing, it is a 0KB file.
When I try opening such forms in Forms Dev 10g, and then compile them, the Dev crashes. It gives no indication of the error.
By crashing I mean that windows throws the error message saying "Application has to be closed. Send error report: yes/no"
Can someone please tell me if you faced such a problem, and how you went about solving it?

Try a Compile All ( Ctrl - K ), then Ctrl - T.
Not sure about XP, but in Vista, the 10g Builder and batch compiler will crash if a PLL Library is not available when the form is compiled.
Make sure the PLL Library is available, and all its objects compile in the 10g setup.
If that does not help, then try a semicolon-to-semicolon replace all, then save the fmb. Then restart the Forms Builder, and open the fmb again, and try compiling.
Here is an old link describing the issue:

Error: Oracle Forms Designer has stopped working

I have read a lot of different responses regarding this and related issues but none of the answers seem to be relative to my specific problem. Here is what I have done so far:
a. I just finished loading Oracle 11g 64x enterprise on my laptop running windows 7. It loaded correctly and I was able to import my 10g data dump and set up my schema.
b. I then installed the Oracle development suite: ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1 and disk2. There were some minor issues regarding compatibility but following the advise of one post, I checked the blocks in question and the software loaded fine.
c. I also attempted to install the p5969392_10123_WINNT.zip file but it gave a message indicating that no updates applied. (I am not sure if this is the correct patch or not?)
d. I also had to download and install the Sun SDK, v6.18.
e. I also updated the ORACLE paths in the default.env and registry entries and tried different urls in the runtime preference block. Nothing helped and I stayed with the default.
Oracle Forms seems to startup correctly and I am able to connect to the database with no problem. Although I did not build a new form completely, it appears that this would be no problem.
The problem:
The problem is that when I attempt to open a form that was previously developed in 10g on XP, I immediately get the "Oracle Forms Designer has stopped working" error and Forms Builder shuts down. I get the same error whether I attempt to open a library, menu, or form.
I have tried changing the compatibility mode from XP, service pack 3 (the default after install) to XP, service pack 2 but it made no difference.
If anyone has been able to work through this issue, please let me know how. Thanks
