Forms Migration from 4.5 to 10g

Hi ,
I want to migrate my forms from 4.5 to 10g so i did following steps:
1. Installed Developer suite 10g
2. Took a sample form developed in 4.5 and comiled it in 10g builder utilized the
sample.fmx file for 10g the test was successful ,
I need to migrate a complete application developed in 4.5 forms to 10g and I have
some existing libraries which I use in my forms , now i'm stuck how to utilize them for
10g as whenever I open the forms in 10g builder it asks me to remove the library.
Can please anyone inform me how to utilze the my own user built libraries and esp .
how to repalce D2KWUTIL with WebUtil and is the way i'm approaching for migartion
correct ?
Thanks.
Jonty.

Hi ,
Thanks for the reply ,
but still i'm not clear how to utilize my libraries as even if i migate to Forms 6i
which in turn also supports D2KWUTIL ,so how to utilize Webutil instead of
D2WUTIL while migrating from 6i to 10g.
Is there any document or paper in suport to it.
Thanks.

Forms migration from 2.0 to Forms 10g/11g

Hi,
I want to migrate from forms 2.0 to 10g/11g. I know the migration path is 2.0->4.5->6i->10g/11g . I want to know is it feasible to do the migration from 2.0 to 10g/11g. what are the recommendations.
Thanks & Regards,

PITTS claim to be able to migrate forms from Forms 2.3 onwards.
http://www.pitss.com/solutions/pitsscon-solutions/forms-to-forms/
It depends on how much you want to spend...
However, if you're looking to do it yourself...
Do you have access to developer versions of Forms V3.0 or 4.5? It's easier if you go from 2.0 -> 3.0 -> 4.5/6i -> 10g. Each version has its own migration utilities, but they gradually remove support for earlier versions. Version 2 (2.3) triggers can exist in version 3, but not in later versions.
Do you have experience of Forms 6i or 10g? If not, you have the scope to re-write the application in the language of your choice. The Oracle website has a number of articles on migrating from Forms 3 and 6i, but not from earlier versions, so it depends on your current knowledge as to how you want to do.
I've migrated Forms 3.0 (with 2.3 style triggers) to 10g by hand. It requires an understanding of how Forms used to work compared to how it works now. You will basically be creating your new application from scratch (depending on what you have been able to upgrade) based on the the blocks and items of your old forms. Your task will be so much easier if you have the intermediate Forms developer tools (4.5/6i).
You'll also be upgrading your database. I assume that you are on Oracle 6/7.

Migrating from MSSQL2005 to OracleExpress 10g - stored proc problems

I'm trying to migrate from MSSQLExpress2005 to OracleExpress 10g.
I upgraded my SQLDeveloper 1.1.3 to SQLDeveloper 1.2 from Check Updates (Even it still displays 1.1.3 at Help->About, I assume it was upgraded because version of extensions changed to 10.2.0.29.98)
First I have renaming of my objects problem :
Why does SQLDeveloper renames my stored procedures? I dont see any reason to change.Some of about 50 occurrences :
1-"spCPLN_Alloc_ReSortForMultiAttendance" to "spCPLN_lloc_ReSortForMultitten"
2-"spCPLN_Alloc_CalculateFixedConstraints" to "spCPLN_lloc_CalculateFixedCons"
3-"spCPLN_Alloc_GetAllocationResult" to "spCPLN_lloc_GetllocationResult"
Another problem : What is the problem of this T/SQL scode snippet?I cant convert it with Scratch editor too. I got "Unexpected end of subtree : Line 0 Col 0." error
CREATE PROCEDURE spCPLN_XML_InsertDers
@CourseID int,
@Type1 int

END
I have more than 15 error like this.
thank you

Hi Tuna ,
Thanks for the feedback.
Stored procedure names are collision managed so that they are not longer than 30 characters in length. This is a limitation of Oracles object naming convention.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/fundamentals.htm#sthref309
WRT the procedure.
There is a issue in the T-SQL translator which I have logged a bug for.
bug 6127111 NOT EXITS SUB EXPRESSION NOT RECOGNIZED
It looks like the translator cannot recognize the
IF(( NOT EXISTS
and is expecting IF NOT EXISTS.
As a workaround the following manually modified T-SQL translates
T-SQL
CREATE PROCEDURE spCPLN_XML_InsertDers

@Type1 int

Data migration from oracle 8i to 10g

hi
i want to move data from oracle 8i to 10g. I just want to move data, and nothing else. Tables with the same names and fields are already in 10g. every thing is already there in 10g except data.
tell me some hints and solutions so that i can use imp and exp to move the data from 8i to 10g without any data loss and in a secure way.
thanks

there is another point that oracle 10g also contain some data. and tables and field names are same in 10g as in 8i. if i use "imp full=y" then is there any chance of data loss that is already in 10g? and are there any chances that data file are overwritten? tell me the risks and solutions.

Migration from DB2 to Oracle 10g using free tools

Dear all,
Im currently using DB2 database and wish to migrate data over to Oracle 10g express. However, i could not find any free tools or methods to migrate without using tools as i could not use tools like Oracle Migration Workbench as the migration is for certain project which will deal with internal process or commercial purpose.
Would like to seek everybody's help. Greatly appreciation your response.
Regards,
Kee Cheng =)

nvr4getu wrote:
Thanks. But have you heard of creating a heterogenous services, create a database link between the 2 database, then transform over to Oracle?I thought you were looking for a free tool. With HS, you'll have to buy the component to install on the DB2 system. Unless something has changed since the last time I worked in a mixed Oracle/DB2 shop.

Migration from Access to Oracle 10g (Problem with migration wizard)

Hi
I have an access database which I want to migrate to Oracle DB.
I have created 2 connections.
1. Access connection with the source database
2. Oracle connection.
I have associated the oracle connection to the repository.
When I go through 'MIGRATION WIZARD' process. I am not able to view the source database file while capturing. Tried it several times.
Need a help in this
Regards,
Arjun
Edited by: 919650 on Mar 9, 2012 2:47 AM

Arjun,
you cannot do an online migration with MS Access as you can do with other foreign datasources. You can only do an offline migration.
The first step that you need to do is to call the Microsoft Access Exporter. Click on Tools - Migration - Microsoft Access Exporter and chose the exporter of the MS Access version that you are using.
The exporter creates an xml file for you. After the exporter has finished you can do the migration, click on Tools - Migration - Migrate, but in Step 4 please select "Offline", and then you can select the xml file that the exporter has created. The following steps in the Migration assistant are then doing the migration for you.
You might also want to read the chapter "Before Migrating From Microsoft Access" in the online help of SQL Developer.

Wolfgang

Migration from Reports 6i to 10G

Hi,
I have migrated my forms from 6i to 10g. Everything is working fine except reports.
(Im calling reports from my menu modules using run_product builtin).
Now i need the steps to migrate the reports from 6i to 10G.
Good Help will be appreciated.
Regards
Sankar.M.N

hi,
instead of run_product you hav to use web.showdocument
migrate your from from which you are clling report
it will add report-object and rp2rro lib to your form
and then change your function
like this
PROCEDURE call_report IS
          pi_id paramlist;
          alrt_var number;
          repid report_object;
          rep_path varchar2(200);
          vc_reportserverjob varchar2(100);
          report_job_id varchar2(100);
          v_rep_status varchar2(100);
begin
     repid := find_report_object('RP2PRO');

Forms Migration 5 to 6i to 10g

Hello All,
My company wants to Migration of the data entry oracle forms currently in Forms 5.0 (approx 200 forms) to 10g Forms.
As per as Roadmap, we are first migrating forms 5 to 6i forms. I am right?
To Migrate we have to just compile all files in Forms and Reports 6i, I am right?
Could You please give me steps to migrate the forms 6i to 10g.
Thanks a lot in advance!!!!
Pankaj

The Forms 5 to 6i migration is mostly just the compile using the latest Forms 6i compiler. Be sure to install 6i, then apply the last patch (Patch 18). But you then need to make sure the forms run properly in a 6i environment -- test them!
Moving to Forms 10g is different, since you are leaving the client/server behind, and moving to a browser-java-web forms environment.

Migration from disc 4 to 10g

Hi all,
I'm posting to have some help from discoverer experts.
We're trying to migrate discoverer 4 to 10g, which I've already done in the past and was quite straight forward. Although, we are experiencing some problems this time.
Here are the steps :
1 - I backup everything from EUL4
2 - I upgrade the EUL to version 5
3 - I use discoverer desktop 10g to access to the database and everything seems to be all right.
However, there is one report that seems not have migrated correctly. When using discoverer 4, it takes 15 secondes to run and show the result. Using discoverer 10g, it takes more than 20 minutes. I've noticed that the query are the same and run quickly on the database (with both of versions, we see that the query is executed and the result is quickly sent back). On discoverer 10g, it seems to run a long time on "sorting data" part (even if I take out all sorts), after he has got the result.
Question 1 : Can I use discoverer 4 reports and use them with disc 10g ? I guess so
Question 2 : Is there something known that disc 4 does but disc 10g can't ?
Before opening the report and find the thing that cause the problem (which could take a long time), I was wondering if someone here has an idea. I couldn't say what exactly is the report since it's a huge one and has a lot of conditions and use almost everything that discoverer has to offer.
Thanks in advance for your help and ideas.
Pat

Pat.
As far as I know, there's nothing obvious that could effect performance adversely for 10g - as the SQL generated, etc. from 10g is supposed to be far superior to 4.x.
1. If you're asking can you use Disco 4 and Disco 10 at the same time, if 10g created a new EUL then yes - if each in different Oracle homes. However, it's pretty impractical for the long term.
2. The biggest few issues I can think of, for being in 4.x and not in 10g is:
a. subquery - this was a flakey concept in Disco anyway (ie: one sheet calling another sheet), but is not available in 10g
b. total number of pages - things that 'looked ahead' (ie: for display page 1 of 200), the total pages (200) option is now not there
Here's a few ideas that I'm wondering may be causing the problem.
1. do you have statistics on in the new 10g version?
2. is it a crosstab report?
3. are the governor settings different now?
4. are you pointing to a BIS or NoetixViews view?
5. are the column headings calculated (ie: a calculation displayed as the heading?)
Apart from that, I'm guessing that under 10g you're now using iAS? (you don't have to but most do), so that brings all the fun of having another middle layer box / software that might need to be optimized (ie: the 2 config files on the Disco server).

It seems that some Java library is not properly installed. Further, there is no option like File -> Administration -> Compile File in 9i unlike previous versions which suggests that we have to use command line utilities (CLU) to compile the forms.
Any help will be highly appriciated.
Manish

you should just need to change your calls from "ole2.whatever" to "client_ole2.whatever".It is not as straightforward as that. Sunil is using OLE Containers, for which there is no support, so he needs to first migrate his FORMS_OLE calls to use OLE2 and then he can convert those to use the webutil package.
My own experience is that if you're doing anything simple you'll be okay, but anything leftfield will give you grief. JACOB is pretty stern with what it will accept as an OLE call.

Sys_context while migrating from DB 9i to 10g

Hi friends,
We have been migrating our database from 9i to 10g. In 9i, the sql command

DB Migration from SAPDB to Oracle 10g - Archive access after migration?

Hi!
Our customer plans to move his SAP system landscape from one Service Provider to another. During this not only new hardware is used but also a DB migration will be done using the procedure described in the SAP System Copy Guide (SAPDB -> Oracle - Offline Export in source system,
Import in target system).
SAPSID and client will be the same in the new environment, but of course HW key, IP-adress, Server name, Domain name and obviously Installation no. will change. SAP Note 153433 as well as System Copy Guide do not completely clearly tell me, whether we will face problems when trying to access our archived data after the migration. It's not completely clear to me, how the Archive References are
built: Only using SAPSID and client? Then everything should be okay, because here we plan no changes.
So do we have to face any problems when trying to access and/or reload the archived files and objects after the movement to the new service provider? Are there any pitfalls concerning archviving and archive access we have to take in mind?
Add. info: The archvied files and objects are stored in an IBM Common Store which will be moved physically from location A to B. So here nothing changes.
Thanx in advance for any hint.
BTW: SAP Notes 153433, 460620 and 53068 were already studied. SAP support said this is a consulting issue ... ;-(

Hi Volker,
I haven't worked much on archiving, however Archived files are flat files ( I think) and hence these files should be common for all databases.
However a good strategy is to first test. I think you must have already thought about it however still here is what you could do.
Take system copy of the system you want to migrate ( you could choose a development system where there is not much data)
Delete data the production clients in the copied system.
Archive some data using object something like WORKITEM which is harmless workflow object.
Migrate the system and try to reload the object
Hope that helps.

HCM Processes & Forms : Migrating from JSPs to Web Dynpro for ABAP

We are pretty well invested in HCM Processes and Forms. We currently use JSP based forms as the UI for our notifications. We do not, use Adobe Forms.
For a number of reasons, we want to transition to forms based in Web Dynpro for ABAP.
We want to bring a new scenario online using WD4A. Down the road, weu2019ll very likely transition our old JSPs over to the new methodology as well.
I would expect that this is pretty well doable. As part of a proof of concept, we did launch notifications from the web dynpro environment, had them initiate workflow, etc . Weu2019ve also pulled up our web dynpro app from the UWL and portal.
Has anyone gone through this specific exercise u2013 moving from JSPs to WD4A? We are particularly interested in where the integration points will be, working with ISR_PROCESS_EVENT, etc.
Your comments, suggestions, references, etc. are welcomed, as well as any discussion you may offer.
Thanksu2026

And along the same lines, any thoughts around which of the following QISRDPROCESS_TYPEs might be a better choice?
Entry Using ITS Service
Entry Using Adobe PDF
We currently use the ITS Service type. I think this may be our first direction, replacing url links with links to our webdynpro application which woulds need to integrate calls through ISR_PROCESS_EVENT
The Adobe Type seems interesting - Again, we do not, nor will, have Adobe Forms in place for this development. But, I've read some discussion that folks have enhanced out of actual Adobe Form rendering.
Again, the thoughts of the community are welcomed here.
Thanks...
...Mike

Migration from 8i to 9i/10g

Hi ,
I am current using Oracle 8i, is the migration to 9iR2 or 10g free?
Do i need to pay to upgrade to the newer database? Am currently using 817 Enterprise Edition.
Thanks in advance.

This would be a question better answered by your Oracle Sales representative as they can pull up all of your current license and support information.
