Forms & Reports & Weblogic server?

I have installed Forms & Reports for development on windows 7 (localhost only). The Weblogic server seems to be working fine with Oracle Forms but what do I need to do to get Oracle Reports working? Do I need to edit the rwserver.conf file? If so what is needed for a simple localhost install? I then need to manually start the rwserver?

this is what you need to do in linux:
change the name of the report in rwserver.conf and netwrok.conf file
modify the configuration file to not use single sign on
correct username and password in cgicmd.dat
Pls let the thread know if this works.

How to start developing forms with weblogic server???

I am a beginner. I saw someone working on developer 6i and I love the ease so I come to oracle. BUT now I find this weblogic server for desktop applications (forms) too.
1. Please recommend me a book for developing desktop applications in weblogic server.
2. Is it possible to use Mysql as database while developing forms in weblogic server?
Many thanks

I am a beginner. I saw someone working on developer 6i and I love the ease so I come to oracle. BUT now I find this weblogic server for desktop applications (forms) too.You have to keep in mind that Oracle Developer Suite 6i (Forms/Reports) is over 10 years old and was primarily a Client/Server development environment. Yes, a Forms 6i application could be deployed to the web, but infrastruction has changed many times in the 10+ years since Forms 6i was introduced.
1. Please recommend me a book for developing desktop applications in weblogic server.Are you talking about an Oracle Forms application deployed through the WebLogic application server? If so, take a look at Developing Oracle Forms Applications or Oracle9i Developer: Developing Web Applications with Forms Builder. These are older books, but they will give you the basics of Oracle Forms development. Once you have the basics of Forms Development, then you can refer to the product documentation for specifics on the particular version of Forms you are using:
Oracle Forms 10g Online Book - Contents or <a href="http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/index.htm>Oracle Fusion Middleware Documenation LIbrary</a> and select the Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer option.
{quote2. Is it possible to use Mysql as database while developing forms in weblogic server?{quote
You can use MySQL with your web app only if you are not using Oracle Forms! Oracle Forms will only communicate with an Oracle Database. There are methods available to access data from non-Oracle database, but they involved linking your Oracle Database to the non-Oracle database and accessing the data through the Oracle Database.
Hope this helps,

How to deploy oracle forms on weblogic server - please help

Replacement for 10g Forms&Reports standalone server in 11g?

is there a replacement for the 10g Forms&Reports standalone server in 11g environment? Without the need to install Metadata Repository?
thx, florian.
Edited by: fschulze on Oct 16, 2009 1:12 PM

I believe you can install the equivalent in Forms 11g.
If you don't install Portal or Discoverer, then you are not required to install any Metadata repository.
So the steps would be:
1) Install Weblogic Server 11g
2) Install Forms and Report Services 11g
How will you call reports from forms though?

Forms 11g - Weblogic Server - Command prompts stay open?

is it right, that i have to logon to the windows server, start the Admin Server for Weblogic Server domain manually,
if i want to go to the Admin Console on port 7001?
is it right, that i have to logon to the windows server, start the Weblogic Server WLS_FORMS manually,
if i want to start any forms?

So i have installed Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g on a Windows 2003 Datacenter Server in US Version named "center".

Error installing Forms/Reports Server on linux m/c having EBS R12 installed

Hi,
We are trying to install Forms and Reports server (Oracle Application Server 10gR2 (10.1.2.0.2) Forms and Reports Services) on a linux x86 box. The box already has Oracle E-business Suite R12 running on it. Our end goal is to install Oracle Transport Management (OTM), which requires Oracle Forms and Reports server to run its reports. When installing Forms and Report server I am getting following error. During installation, I gave a different set of ports to be used by Oracle Forms/Reports Apps server (and not the default) in staticports.ini and ensured that those ports are available. Any idea what could be the issue. If the issue is due to port conflict, how do I find which is the conflicting port. Also, is it possible to re-use Oracle Applications' Forms/Reports server for other applications like OTM.
Get the following error during installation of Oracle Application Server 10gR2 (10.1.2.0.2) Forms and Reports Services:
. Please also check the logs located at
ORACLE_HOME/dcm/logs to determine why DCM was unsuccessful in updating
the configuration files on disk. Some possible causes are:
* permissions on files
* file contention issues on Windows NT
* internal Oracle error
After resolving the problem that prevented DCM from updating the configuration
files, you may use the dcmctl resyncInstance command to resolve the problem.
Alternatively, you can stop and then restart the active dcmctl or EMD
process and resyncInstance will automatically be performed.

So ...
After a lot of searches, it was necessary a help from a Weblogic Administrator to find out what was going on with the installation process. The problem was with the memory allocation to the Weblogic VM. The process EMGC_OMS1 could not be started cos it was not possible to create a VM into SERVERADMIN.
With just my DB experience I could not find any logs besides emctl.log and that one that it's shown in OEM Installler interface. The Weblogic Administrator was browsing the HOME where the Weblogic was installed and he found logs that showed the error telling where the problem was. Even downloading the OEM 12c 32bit, it was allocated memory to the java as if it was 64bit. The solution was decreasing the values of memory and clicking in Retry. So, my OEM Cloud Control 12c it's working now.

Weblogic Server upgrade along with Forms & Reports

Hi Gurus,
I would need some help on upgrading one our Weblogic server from 10.3.2 to 10.3.6. Also, we have forms & reports ( version: 11.1.1.2 ) configured on this server and we would have to upgrade this to version: 11.1.2.1
Can you please help me or point me to a good document to do this.
I am a DBA and my weblogic experience is very little.
Thanks
Prakash
Edited by: 1004698 on May 8, 2013 4:52 AM

Hi Prakash,
First, very smart decision to move to 11gR2 Forms - performance is much better in 11gR2. Customers i've worked with, are very happy with it compared to 11gR1.
Now, if you want to upgrade from 11gR1 (11.1.1.2) to 11gR2 Forms (11.1.2.1), I would do a new install. Simply because, there is no simple/straight-forward Architecture upgrade path from 11gR1 to 11gR2 Forms. And the installation will also be a clean isntall. Don't worry about your forms/reports source code, you can just recompile no problem in 11gR2 Forms.
If you want to do a re-install heres some things to consider:
1.) Update and/or Install an Oracle certified JDK - you can verify the correct JDK in the certification matrix provided by oracle: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/oracle-forms-11gr2certmatrix-519680.xls
2.) Verify your OS is certified with Forms 11gR2
3.)Install WLS in a new middleware Home.
4.) At his point, you should install the Oracle Forms 11gR2 Binaries Home in your new 10.3.6 Middleware Home.
5.) Optional: If you want the same exact ports as 11gR1 Forms installation - you'll have to shutdown all the 11gR1 Forms/Reports processes- OPMN Processes, WLS_FORMS, WLS_REPORTS, AdminServer.
5.) Run the Forms 11gR2 Configuration Wizard to install and configure a new Forms 11gr2 domain.
6.) After the configuration wizard completes successfully:
- Migrate over your formsweb.cfg/env settings
- Migrate ORACLE_HOME customizations
- Definitely install/configure webutil components
- Migrate over any other additional customizations
If you run into any weird issues, check out my companies knowledge base, its full of installation knowledge: http://pitss.com/us/knowledgebase/
Hope this helps!

Forms and Reports in Weblogic Server 12c?

I'm trying to determine if Forms and Reports 11g are supported in Weblogic Server 12c. I have found numerous questions from years ago indicating that that was not the case then, but I also found a few posts that indicated that this support would be added in the future. I am unable to find any recent posts to confirm this nor do I see anything in the certification matrices that lead me to believe that this is a supported configuration. Can anyone give a definitive answer?

Install Forms and Reports builder 11g without WebLogic Server

Hello Everybody,
Presently to install Forms and Reports builder 11g on a PC for developers, we need to install WebLogic Server prior to that.
For this, we need lot of resources. Hardware, to download big software bundles, memory resources, etc...
If we have a solution like *"Forms and Reports builder 11g and its tools as stand-alone distribution from Fusion Middleware technologies"* ........ no words from me.
Do you have a solution to install Forms and Reports Builder 11g without WebLogic Server?

Admin training for WebLogic Server - just the Forms and Reports parts

We will be upgrading our Forms & Reports application from 10gR2 to 11g. Our customers (well their DBAs) will need to install and manage WebLogic Server. So I'm looking for a training course where they can learn how to do that. The WebLogic Server admin course is 5 days, and another 4 for Advanced System Admin, which seems a lot as they are only going to use the parts required for Forms and Reports.
I have read through the tutorial Using Oracle Enterprise Manager to Administer Forms Services. Is this the extent of what they need to know, or is there another chunk of the iceberg under the water? Can you recommend a training course please.

Hi,
After installing forms, the installer itself configures the WLS with the domains etc and also deploys the forms. Once after this, it is similar to that of 10g Application Server. All the maintenance of the forms is done using Enterprise Manager (EM Console). So, the section you mentioned should suffice.

Installation Guidance (WebLogic 10.3.5 / Oracle Forms,Reports 11.1.1.6)

Goal : I am a designer/developer, have worked on already-installed systems for years, now between contracts and want/need to set up my own installation of Oracle Database 11g R2 database and development tools including Oracle Forms/Reports 11g (also SQL Developer and Application Express, but these come with the DB).
Caveat : have not done an installation of the DB and development tools for years and I know a lot has changed.
System : Windows 7 (64 bit), 6 GB RAM, 600 GB Hard Drive
Here is an overview of the steps as I understand them from the documentation I've been able to find. I know there are lots of details for each step but I want to know if the overall order is right.
1. Install DB (downloaded Oracle 11G Release 2, ready to install Enterprise Edition).
2. Install Repository Creation Utility 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.5.0) to set up the schemas for Fusion Middleware
** QUESTION ** where on earth does one find this? Anyone have a link for it? Or does it come with a larger patchset/installation set?
3. Install Oracle WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.5)
4. Install Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer Release 11g (11.1.1.2.0) but do not configure (advice given in documentation for 11.1.1.6 Patchset)
5. Install and Configure 11.1.1.6 Patchset
Any comments or suggestions welcome. Hope to avoid pitfalls if possible.
Thanks in advance !
Peter
