Forms6i and Oracle Database8i Enterprise

Hello all. I am having a very tough time getting my oracle forms 6i and database 8i to talk to each other. If someone could help me out, that would be great. I know you need to install 6i first then 8i enterprise. I know you also have to put in some lines of code into your tnsnames.ora file in order for it all to work. If someone could post what I need to put in (the more detail the better), it would be very highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Guy

Firstly configure the listener in the server and start the services.. u could find the services icon in the control panel of Windows NT, try connecting from the node , even after this, u cannot able to connect, uninstall the complete forms 6i from the client and reinstall in a new directory, and configure the net 8 easy config and specify the proper IP,HOST Name and Exact SID .. u shd. be able to connect, if u r connecting the first time, try using System/Manager Login , much b'fore try connecting to the database using Sql*Net in the server itself, if it works fine .. then u shd. be able to connect from the client using the above suggestions..

  • Differences b/w Oracle Workshop WebLogic and Oracle Eclipse Enterprise Pack

    What are the differences between the Oracle Workshop Studio for WebLogic and the Oracle Eclipse Enterprise Pack

    While both OEPE and Workshop are Eclipse-based IDEs, they are in fact separate products with some similarities
    Both products provide tooling for webapp and Java EE development for Weblogic Server but OEPE is Oracle's strategic Eclipse-based solution and new features are released as OEPE plugins. One goal for OEPE is to cover and eventually exceed Workshop's feature set. You can start to see that today in OEPE 11g's JPA, Spring, and Weblogic Server. For example, JPA support in OEPE 11g is available on more project types, like EJB and Utility Projects, and has better Entity source code completion and validation against the schema. OEPE's Weblogic Server support includes new graphical editors for the common deployment descriptors, like weblogic.xml, which simplifies adding new content, validation, and accessing context sensitive help.
    Also, with OEPE we are more active in the Eclipse community with participation in WTP projects like JSF Tools and Dali. In fact, in Eclipse 3.5 the new JPA Entity generation wizards were originally developed as part of OEPE 11g and contributed to WTP.
    Finally, if you need support for the latest Eclipse, OEPE's frequent release schedule keeps us supporting new Eclipse versions much faster than we were able to with Workshop.
    If you are debating between OEPE and Workshop for new projects, I would definitely recommend that you give OEPE a try.

  • How to integrate GRC10.1 and Oracle ESB(Enterprise Service Bus)

    Dear,
           we are delivering an GRC Access Control project.
             Now, we need to integrate GRC10.1 and Oracle ESB, how should we do? Who could help show me some guide, thanks a lot.

    deepak - why not link to the real documentation instead of that site that illegally publishes stuff?
    Krasimir - I had a look at this a long way back, and didn't explore it much further because I reached a dead end in trying to figure out how it worked. It seems to me that the function is there and may be used internally within Oracle, but that it's not documented well enough for we mere mortals of the public to use it.
    Have you tried opening an SR with Support? They won't know, but they will be able to raise it up and perhaps find someone who does know - be sure to reference this thread in your SR if you go that route.

  • Forms6I and Oracle Client

    What Oracle Client (8.0.5 or 8.1.6) should be used for Forms6I. Would an 8.0.5 client have performance issues with Forms6I

    Hi,
    I would be interested in this topic as well.
    I'm fooking for functionality which makes possible to store at admin level db access information and EUL, etc., regarding Discoverer, and for each user its own, attached this to SSO users. Thats the way Resource Access Descriptors work in 9i Forms and Reports.
    Resource Access Descriptors make possible to provide for our users only the SSO username and SSO pwd. Everything else related to db connection information is handled in the background by the application server's servlets.
    Are the Oracle's technologies related to SSO convergent?
    I hope so...
    Any help or workaround would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Forms6i and oracle 8i

    dear all
    I installed oracle server 8i and it works fine .after that I
    installed oracle forms 6i but I can not connect to the server
    from the forms and I found
    the following errors
    the following error I found when I entered only username and
    password in forms query or forms SQL PLUS environment
    TNS : unable to connect to destination
    and sometimes when I enter the db string I found the
    following error:
    invalide driver designator
    please explain every step in the solution because I am not
    experienced developer
    best regsrds

    Hi,I am a new comer too, and I had the same problem like you.
    I solved this problem by this:
    You should try copying TNSNAMES.ORA from your oracle_home
    directory/Network/Admin (my path is D:\ORA81\NETWORK\ADMIN) to
    the Forms' home directory /Net80/Admin (my path is D:\ORANT\NET80
    \ADMIN).
    It's Marco's solution, but a guy called OT said it didn't work,
    I don't know why, he just said his own solution is:
    install Forms 6 first, then install the Ora 8i.
    Hope this could help you.

    The code itself didnot got compiled. It didnot ran.
    3) put this coding into WHEN-TREE-NODE-SELECTED trigger under the item, this is to populate the data to other block when u select the tree node.

  • Forms6i and oracle JSP

    Hi All!.
    I developed a form whic is not based on any base table for passing parameter to reports.
    This form has a startup procedure, and accepts a parameter. Depending upon the parameter, it queries a table which gives the detail to form about what are the field required, and how they will be placed in the canvas and also the maximum size of the canvas and the window. These all are handled at runtime with the help of triggers and some form level procedures.
    But my problem is when this form is requested through a browser (forms 6i server) by the marketing officers (they normally logs in through the dialup line) has to weight a a couple of minutes to get it displayed (because of appletbased technology). Hence I decieded to change this to JSP.
    Can anybody help me out how can I do that....?? Is there any tools available which can directly convert the forms binary to a JSP page....
    An early reply will be highly solicited.
    With Regards.
    Soumen.

    There are some companies that offer tools for such a migration. Check out http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/htdocs/FormsJavaSOD.html

  • Oracle forms6i and Oracle server 10G compatability

    Does anybody know if I can run 6i forms with 10G server?

    for Windows NT/2000.
    I am a programmer. I want to use oracle 8i to learn oracle RDBMS.
    When I try to install Oracle 8i it says installing oracle client. It gives me
    options of administrator, programmer, user and custom. It installs oracle
    client successfully. But oracle server is missing. So I can not connect to
    server and do any database function. Please help me on this.
    Let me know if on a standalone PC with Windows 98 installing Oracle 8i client
    is enough. If not How do I get another software. If I am making any mistake please let me know.
    I think I should have either Oracle personal edition or Oracle server edition

  • Diff between oracle linux and oracle enterprise linux?

    hi all,
    i am new to this flavor of Linux. I know oracle linux has red hat source, but i am confused about the difference betweek oracle linux which comes in versions 4 (upto update 8) and 5 (latest update being 5).
    i need to install oracle enterprise linux at a client place, so i gota know the difference.
    Should i be installing oracle Linux first and then run the rpm of "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel"? or is the "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" only for customers who require this kernal on oracle linux update 5 x86_64?
    thanks

    waldorfm wrote:
    From what I understand Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) is a rebranded version of Red hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
    Oracle Linux (OL) is OEL plus Oracle optimization and custom, newer kernel. OL with Oracle "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" is available as x86_64 only and was introduced based on OEL or RHEL 5.5.
    You can install OEL 5.4 and easily upgrade to OEL 5.5, PMFJI, but can you point me to docs on how to make that upgrade? The timing of this msg on the forum was exquisite, as I started looking at that just today. I have an OEL 5.4 installation and would much rather upgrade to 5.5 than to have to rebuild from scratch.
    I did a yum install kernel with the 5.5 version of the public-yum-el5.repo. That went without a hitch and now reports "2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1" where I was 2.6.18-164.el5, but I also see
    [root@myserver ~]# uname -a
    Linux myserver 2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1 SMP Fri Sep 17 17:51:41 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    [root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/enterprise-release
    Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Carthage)
    [root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)Bottom line is that I am charged with updating the kernel to a 2.6 version newer than 19 Sep, or applying a patch for the compat_alloc_user_space() function, and am not sure exactly how to proceed from here.
    if you like or start to install from version 5.5, and then install OL 5.5 by downloading the Oracle public yum repository and follow the instructions at http://public-yum.oracle.com

  • Database link between Oracle Standard Edition and Oracle Enterprise Edition

    Hi,
    I am looking at setting up a data transfer process between an Oracle 11g Enterprise Edition database and an Oracle 11g Standard Edition database. Database links would be required each way.
    I heard once that this is not permitted as connecting Standard to Enterprise via a DB Link means that the Standard Edition database would now need an Enterprise license.
    I have searched around but can't find anything to confirm this. Am I being mislead by this information? Is it permitted to
    connect Standard to Enterprise via a DB Link?

When a db-1 has a link pointing to db-2, as far as db-2 is concerned db-1 is just another client .. no different than sqlplus. If you have an Enterprise Edition database, of course it will need to be properly licensed. But that doesn't mean all of its clients (including a SE database) have to be EE licensed.
    But even my reply is just something you read on the internet. Licensing questions can only be definitively answered by Oracle itself. Ultimately you will need to put your hands on an official Oracle document or a written statement from someone authorized to make such statements.

  • Need steps to configure BAM and DATAMART for Oracle BPM Enterprise

    Hi,
    Need steps to configure BAM and DATAMART for both Oracle BPM 10.3 Enterprise Standalone and Oracle BPM 10.3 Enterprise Weblogic.
    Configurations like BAM Updater Service, Process Data Mart Updater Service, Start Up / Shut Down of the service etc.
    I am referring : http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bpm/bpm10gr3technicalarticles/BPMConfiguringAndTroubleshootingBAMAndDataMart.pdf

    Hi,
    To add system to solman:
    Go to SMSY and define:
    1) Server --> host name, IP etc
    2) DB --> DB details
    3) System --> R3, Netweaever etc, assign proper components, products
    4) define and assign logical components for the system defined in step 3
    5) generate RFC destionation to the satellite system
    6) Provided you have the necessary trusted authorization and if the RFCs are generated successfully then your task is done. Else you'll have to troubleshoot.
    Once this is done, you need to goto SOLUTION_MANAGER and define
    1) new solution
    2) make necessary inclusion in Solution Landscape Maintenance
    3) include logical component
    This completes the system setup for you.

  • Running Oracle XE and Oracle enterprise on same windows machine

    Hi,
    I never had to try anything similar to this on windows. I need to continue to run Oracle Enterprise edition and Oracle XE on my windows machine.
    I can install both, but when I try to run the Listener for XE Edition, it starts the listener for the enterprise edition.
    Also the DB Homepage doesnt work, which leads me to believe that it might be using some fo the enterprise files, not the XE files.
    I cant access the XE forum, because I cant register, so sorry for posting this here. I cant seem to find a place that mentions or explains how you can run both on a Windows box.
    I have run multiple oracle versions on Unix, just never on windows...

    On the windows case, the order of evaluation is taken from the PATH environment variable. This same rule applies when you have several Oracle products installed on the same box, ensure you are launching a tool that makes sense with its home, i.e. launching netca to configure a tnsentry at the XE home will not work since XE doesn't have a netca tool and the tnsora file it will be modifying will be that of the oracle home it is related to. On the other hand, when lauching sqlplus it would not be too dangerous since any compatible version of sqlplus will work.
    There are issues with the listener, Oracle XE requires to be registered against the listener, additionally it will create an OraDAV access (http protocol) to open the access to the Web Administration Console. If you are planning to use web/plsql application this is also important. It can work with the other listener, but depending on your particular conditions you may want to start an independent listener for XE.
