Forms Runtime Diagnostics assistance plz

"Forms Diagnostics Techniques" p 82, suggests the system administrator should provide an alternate HTML file with FRD switched on and redirect users to this alternate file.
My question is since this is the FORMSWEB.CFG file, how do you accomplish this? It appears to us, you need a duplicate apache instance, etc. to get this done. Can someone please clarify?
thanks,
r.b.

That guide was written before the servlet architecure which uses the formsweb.cfg was in widespread use.
All you need to do is to make sure that your otherparams= value in the formsweb.cfg includes record=%record% entry
and then to switch on FRD you can just add record=collect onto the URL (or hardcode it as a config parameter)
e.g.
[app_with_frd]
lookAndFeel=generic
form=appform.fmx
record=collect

Forms Runtime Diagnostics

The Forms Runtime Diagnostics(FRD) can I make this call in FORM or do I need to make the call from the command line on the application server.
Is this the correct call f60runm module=foo userid=scott/tiger@hockey record=collect
Can I make the module equal to the form's name.
How do I set the userid equal to a generic call for the user that is logging into the form.

Hi,
runtime diagnostics must be started when starting the runtime. There is no way for you to start it after.

How to get the Form runtim diagnostics log file

Hi,
I followed the instruction of Metalink Notes:
R12: Forms Runtime Diagnostics (FRD), Tracing And Logging For Forms In Oracle Applications http://ID 438652.1
Option 1: Obtain FRD Trace Using Profile Options
Method 1: Using profile option 'ICX: Forms Launcher'
I was not able to get the log file.
Any suggestions

Yes, I follow the instruction, set profile at user level, and bounce Apache.
When I log in to application, I do see a message that the low level trace is enabled.
the directory is:
/u1/dev/inst/apps/apps/dev/logs/ora/10.1.2/forms

FRD - Forms Runtime Diagnostics

Hi,
i have enabled FRD using profile options at user level.(For .trc)
Now i want to disable that option, it cause further actions.
let me explain ..
Thanks,
saheb

I belive there is a system var or forms var that can be set to disable frd's, could you have that set?Certainly not intentionally.
Might there be something in the {Forms Home}\NET80\ADMIN\SQLNET.ORA file? I have used trace_level_client = 16in the past, but right now it is commented out, so the default of 0 should be in effect.
There is mention in another thread to a manual, "Forms Diagnostics Techniques". Does anyone have it?
Ok, I found the solution: I searched Metalink for FRD and found Note 290210.1 Forms FRD Trace with New variable FORMS60_TRACE_PATH. It was directed toward Web Forms, but I just tried adding FORMS60_TRACE_PATH into RegEdit key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, ORACLE, and set its value to C:\ORANT\FORMS60\log. I changed my startup Target value to include: record=collect log=C:\ORANT\FORMS60\log\aafrd.txt.
Then I re-tried running my form, and got a 104k log file. ...whoah! Talk about TMI (too much information)!
Thanks Monica and Pat for helping me out.

Forms Runtime Hangs

We have recently upgrades some of our client workstations to Forms&Reports 6i and are having a problem on a few of the client workstations since the upgrade. When the user runs our client application the Forms Runtime window pops up and just hangs, then the workstation locks up and we have to force a reboot, can not even kill using task manager. Even after the reboot the same problem occurs and I have to reinstall patch 12 to fix but this fix is only temporary as the problem again comes back after a while. To give a brief back ground the clients are running NT4 Wrkstn SP6a, Oracle Forms & Reports Runtime 6i patch 12, connecting to a 9i DB. Any ideas or assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I'm sorry, should have been more specific. We are running client\server not web. Before the upgrade we were running Forms&Reports 4.5 and everything was stable. The funny thing is that we have upgraded 50 client workstations and only (2) are experiencing this problem. I have tried completely removing the Oracle software and reinstalling on both workstations but this has not helped.

Form Runtime

Hi,
What is the best way to connect to the database schema automatively when the form is in run time.
Example:
When you close the form builder or run the form in form runtime, it always prompts you for the database schema. What is the best way to solve this problem, because my form will deploy into the web server, I don't want the user to enter the database schema. Please advise.
Thank you very much
Tim

With Forms 5.0 I use the following shortcut in Windows:

Still, beware!
This way you give the luser the username & password. Yet, for this application, there is a trick so that I don't reveal the username & password of the owner of the application object schema (the login user is a dumb user that can only execute some stored procs that do logon to the application schema if they are given the right params for username & password). Back scenes I use the logon & logout built-ins.
Hope this helps,

HST6i, Client/Server env. Forms runtime crash!

We successfuly instaled HSD6i on Forms Server. But we also need to run forms on client/server environment.
When I start HSU or generated app. in Forms Runtime (ver 6.0.8.11.3) and do nothing other than navigate from menu to form 'Users' for example, form opens but the very
next time whole runtime environment dissaper (crash with no error message).
How can I manage this problem?
null

I changed all 'automatic' to <unspecified> but my forms are still crashing with access violation at uiw60.dll. It seems that only forms with item groups though. I also found another posting here by Ivica Coric about "Problem with Item Groups" where people mentioned forms with item groups would crash. It seems that this is my problem. But changing 'automatic' to something else still doesn't solve my problem. Any ideas? Thanks.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Headstart Team:
Uros,
I have discovered what makes this happen. As you have read in the the install guide, you need to change a number of properties in the object library. Specifically, the color "Automatic", which is very useful in webforms, is problematic on client/server.
Because most items in the generated forms subclass from the object library, you would ideally only need to recreate the fmx files and be rid of the "Automatics".
Unfortunately, there's one place where the generator uses the object library properties, but DOES NOT SUBCLASS BUT COPIES these properties into the generated forms. This happens with boilerplate graphics that result from item group decorations, and then only when the item group decoration has a prompt! Here the color of the CG$TITLE visual attribute is used, but not subclassed. This also explains why you solved it by regenerating the problematic forms.
To solve this for the applications you cannot regenerate, open the fmbs, navigate to the Canvas, and then to the Graphics. You'll find the culprit there soon enough.
Kind regards,

How can I attach any type of file in forms runtime

Hi Friends,
I need some help from any one of you.
Is there any possibility to attach any type of file in forms runtime?
If there is, how can. Please let me know the code.
Thanks

I think that you are going to have to explain what you want to do more clearly...

Forms runtime as cartridge?

In a document from July 1997 from Oracle called "Developer/2000
and the NCA: An Architectural Overview", authors Mark Doran et
al, the future direction of the Forms Runtime was stated to be:
In a release after 2.0, the Forms Runtime will be implemented
as a cartridge. The Web Application Server will invoke a
Forms cartrige directly to run a Forms application, elim-
inating the ned for a separate Listener process and Runtime
processes. In this configuration, the Forms cartridge will
be able to exploit all of the functionality of the Web
Application Server, including Inter-Cartridge Exchange
(ICX) and dynamic load balancing.
Initially, each instance of the Cartridge will handle a single
connected user, just as the Forms Runtime does today, but
in later versions a single cartridge will be able to serve
multiple simultaneous users for even greater scalability.
I have two questions:
a) is this still the intended direction of the Forms Runtime?
(I couldn't find this repeated in later documents)
b) if so, which release will/does have this feature?
I have scoured all the promotional documentation for OAS 4.0
and Developer 6.0 looking for an answer, but could not find
any.
The reasons I care are that 1) our client will continue to grow,
and the scalability improvement is interesting, and 2) if
you can use Inter-Cartridge Exchange to (I think) access
real CORBA objects which live in a custom-built application
cartridge that lives in OAS 4.0. From Forms, you have to
use Forms-specific syntax to access functions, and you
can't access objects directly.
null

I agree.
I've tested my application using Dev2.1 to find out that each
user was going to take up around 10M.
We have a user base of about 300, but usually theres only about
80 users on during our busiest time. 80Users * 10M = 800M.
Thats not even counting the memeory needed for the reports
server.
But to be fair OAS load balancing did cut down on apps which
were inactive.
But this still leaves me with the prospect of at least a 512M
apps server. Which might be incredibly slow during peak times.
So I started looking towards the OAS4.0 release which had this
promised shared cartridge architecture. But it looks as if we
are going to have to upgrade to Dev6.0 to use this cartridge
architecture.
What happened to Dev2.1?
I received the Dev6.0 beta CD, and was imressed by OAS4.0.
Should we just skip the Dev2.1 / OAS3.0 or are there going to be
further releases of Dev2.x supporting OAS4.0?

Forms runtime info. - URGENT-

I have an application developed in Forms 6. I have the following questions.
1. Should the end user purchase forms 6 to run the application?
2. If no, can he get forms runtime along with Oracle 9i, which can run the application?
3. Is Forms 6 runtime alone available to be purchased?
Please help me out at the earliest.
Thanks
Raghu

If we are talking about a client server application then the Forms runtime is for free and you don't need to buy it for the customer. The latest patches will make your forms work with an Oracle9i database. There is no separate packaging of the runtime, you can install just the runtime if you choose the custom install option from the CD that includes Forms.

Where is the runtime repository assistant???

Hi all,
I am working with the OBI SE.
When I am deploying the objects I am getting an error because there is not a valid runtime repository. I found that I have to create the runtime schema with the runtime repository assistant but I don't find it in the menu.
Someone knows if it is installed with OBISE? What do I have to do to create the runtime schema? or, it is already created with the installation?
Many thanks in advance,
Victor.

The runtime repository is a part of OWB repository. It's not related to OBISE.
So, I'm assuming your question regarding the Runtime Repository is related to Oracle Warehouse Builder.
It seems like you've created the Design Rep, but did not created the runtime. This is not possible to achieve, unless you explicitly create like that.
You should run the OWB Repository Assistant and choose the BASIC INSTALL option, if you are using OWB on the same box as the database server.
Please, provide more details about your servers and software architecture, versions, os versions and releases.
Best wishes,
Marcos

Oracle Form Runtime (bug)

Hi guys..
I have created an application composed by 5/6 forms. I created a .BAT file that launches the main MENU form, that has all the related buttons wich call the other modules of the application. NOw the issue is the seguent, if I install the forms on the local machine I have no problems at all. But instead, if I install them on a server pc, I begin having very strange problems. For example, my main MENU forms gets launched without any issues, I press the first button on the main menu and my application starts, if I exit and then press another button, it literally EXPLODES. The forms runtime crashes and creates a DUMP file. Now the strange thing is that it doens't do it on every PC.
Do you guys know anything about this ?

Could it be that you have lot of other programs running in the server so there is not enough memory to run forms.
Just curious, why are you using a combination of version 5 and version 6 forms?
From your main form, are you calling both version 5 and version 6 fmx files?
