HCM form hangs on some machine

Hi,
We are having problem that HCM forms hangs only on certain machines. Its spins forever. No standard or custom event can be submited. Exactly same forms from the same location works fine on other machines. it looks like setting on some machines blocking request.
Does anyone have any ideas of what's wrong?
Thanks,
Oleg

We also did some client trace and on the client machine we see the trace
15:07:43.879 Got a message from Adobe Reader: log 1: error: Adobe Acrobat Professional: 2010-02-15T20:07:43.859Z: Error installing message handler: message:HostContainerDisclosurePolicy is not defined fileName:Doc:Init lineNumber:769 stack:RegisterMessageHandler()@Doc:Init:769 RegisterMessageHandler()@:0 @XFA:data[0]:ready:13 name:ReferenceError 2: 3:
on the working machine instead of this we see
15:12:27.925 Got a message from Adobe Reader: zciReady 1: 2: 3:
also then on broken one we see
15:07:44.631 onError: number: 0 description: message: Target document not disclosed. name: MessageDocNotDisclosedError
Any idea what might cause this kind if error on some machines.
Thanks,
Oleg

HCM form hangs

Hi everyone. I am encountering a problem with Adobe forms within the HCM Processes and Forms framework. I am not able to press the check and send button because of the never ending hour glass symbol. The form just seems to hang. This is not related to the hanging problem before when you press check and and send button then the form hangs. This has been fixed. In this case, I cannot even press check and send.
I created the form using ALD 8.0 and tried to open in the portal using Adobe reader 9.0 and 8.1.1 but the problem still persists. What is strange is this is not happening to the standard forms like Birth of Child etc... There seems to be no problem with my custom form as I also tried it using a blank form and it still happens. The Form Wide ISR scripts and ZCI scripts have already been embedded into the form.
Could it be because of ALD 8.0?
Does anyone have any ideas of what's wrong?

Hi Chris,
I have read your blogs before. Great work! However, this is not the problem I am encountering. I was able to fix the bug you described that occurs when you press check and send. This was fixed by upgrading from ECC 6.0 patch 12 to 19.
I am experiencing a different problem where I cannot even press the check and send button. It does not hang on the form i.e I can enter data but if I move my mouse outside the form into the surrounding web dynpro component there is the never ending hour glass that does not let me press the buttons on the web dynpro component.
I think it may be related to the version of the script installed...
Any ideas?
Thanks!

when we access same form in network , is there any restriction on no of instance of form access in network.?
Thanks n regards
Yash

Hi Yash,
I've seen this happen recently at a few of my customer sites with 11g (11gR1 and 11gR2), where the forms application will hang intermittently or every time a certain object is used. Once we applied this patch to our customer's environments, the issue went away. The issue had to do with one of the following issues: Using multiple cores with JRE 6 or displaying multiple alerts in an application.
Take a look at Oracle Bug in MyOracleSupport: 12433970
There is also an article that goes along with it: 1245895.1
Hope this helps!
Thank you,

Issue with SAP_PD Service in HCM Forms

Hi Experts,
I am facing this issue when trying to create/update a Position using HCM Forms.
We have the HCM_ASR_CL_2 Business Function Activated
We are on EHP4.
I am trying to create/update a position using forms - SAP_PD Service and facing the below mentioned issue -
When I am trying to add the Object Type S in the LEAD_OBJECT_ID, I get the error - Object type S not supported.
As a workaround that I got from a help.sap - 3.In the navigation pane, go toValidity Period.Enter Start Object Type as S = Job, enter Application Type as PD. - Even this workaround doesnt work!
Am I missing some config here?
Also, once we activate the Business Function - do we get the node for SAP_PD in IMG just as we have for SAP_PA and SAP_PT service?
Please help!!!
Thanks

Any reponses?

If you have an "urgent" issue, I highly encourage you to contact Oracle Support. The forum probably isn't going to be your best source for "urgent" issues.

This will be especially important if you are new to any of the products as you will likely need documentation and/or product updates in order to ensure the most stable environment possible.
There are a few publicly available documents which may help to get you started. In any case, these are just examples. They may or may not work to your liking. Further, in some cases they may not work at all. Many of the examples online are often outdated and do not function exactly as documented against other versions. Here is one:

Forms hanging

Hi,
I should predicate this by saying I'm not an Oracle developer so I'm not sure about the terminology...
An issue just surfaced at my office with people who have recently moved to Windows XP. The forms, or the form server, hang on some people after they have refreshed the form server several times. Often what triggers the problem is closing the browser window with the form, then refreshing the form server. I'm having problems finding the source of the error since it works for some users, but not for others.
We are using:
Oracle 10g
Jinitiator 1.3.1.22
Sorry about the vague description but any advice would be greatly appreciated

It's in here. The problem is that oracle kb only indexed it under ms06-013 and not
under KB-912812. Any problem related to a MS update should always be referenced
under all ID numbers.
Subject:      After IE Upgrade or MS Windows Update, Users Now Have to Activate Forms Applet
     Doc ID:      Note:357545.1      Type:      PROBLEM
     Last Revision Date:      24-MAR-2006      Status:      PUBLISHED
In this Document
Symptoms
Changes
Cause
Solution
References
Applies to:
Oracle Forms - Version: 6.0.8 to 10.1.2
Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
Oracle Jinitiator
Sun JDK plug-in
MS Internet Explorer
Symptoms
An Oracle Forms application is run in the latest version of IE (or a version of IE updated by the latest MS Windows update)
The first screen of the application is displayed but it is surrounded by a dotted line. When the mouse hovers over the dotted region, a popup window appears stating that the user needs to click in the region, in order to activate the object. After the user has clicked once on the object to activate it, the Forms application runs in the same way as before for the duration of the Forms session.
The problem does not occur when a forms application is being run with applet parameter separateFrame=true.
It also does not occur at all when running the application via browsers like Mozilla and Netscape.
Changes
Microsoft has decided to change how Internet Explorer (MS IE) handles embedded objects in upcoming patches of the browser. MS IE will no longer automatically activate an embedded object. Instead, the user must click in the area handled by the object to activate it before they can interact with it. For more details about this, please see the article on the MSDN website.
Reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/ieupdate
Note: Microsoft will be initially rolling out this change through the public MSDN website.
Reference:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912945
Note: The changes will also be rolled out through a standard Windows Update, and thus many users will be running with this updated MS IE (without necessarily realizing it).
Cause
Oracle Forms renders its user interface as a java applet, which in MS IE is implemented as an embedded object. Thus, Forms users running their applications in the upcoming version of MS IE will be affected by this change
Solution
Oracle have been working with Microsoft to understand how Oracle Forms can workaround this issue. As per Microsoft’s recommendation Oracle has provided a 'javascript' implementation which allows Oracle Forms to be started without user interaction. To obtain this solution, download Patch 5017052 from Oracle Metalink. The patch is available for 9.0.4 and 10.1.2 releases.
(Regards Oracle Forms 9.0.4, OracleAS 10g Rel 1 / Oracle Developer Suite 10g Rel 1 patchset 2 (9.0.4.2) must be applied first)
@ Note: The change does not affect Oracle E-Business Suite (e.g. Oracle Apps 11i) because forms running within this technology stack are deployed with separateFrame=true.

Forms hangs after using FileUpload PJC in our application

1) I've successfully tested the stand-alone FileUpload demo form provided by Oracle for moving files from C/S to the middle tier machine. That tells me all the environment variables, etc. are good to go.
2) When i try to use the same demo form from my application using the call_form function, it works till the point of transferring the file to the server. Then when I try to close the demo form by hitting the close button to go back to my application, the form hangs up with no error message either in the Java console or the Application.
3) Even when i made changes to my application to implement the PJC as per the Oracle implementation paper, the same result as #2.
We are using Forms 6i (v6.0.8.19.2), iAS Rel1 (v1.0.2.2.2a) running on W2000.
BTW, the size of the file is 1K. The last message I see in the Java console is oracle/ewt/laf/basic/ProgressBarPainter.class
Any ideas or help appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
You can try a package named: JTwain, which is available at http://asprise.com/product/jtwain.
JTwain supports all kinds of digital cameras and scanners. You can use Java to access, contorl digital cameras and scanners, and of course, to acquire images with flexible settings.
The developers' guide is available @ http://asprise.com/product/jtwain/devGuide.php
In the simplest case, one line of Java code can solve your problem.
Good luck!

Infrastructure and forms server into same machine

Dear friends,
I am faching strange problem
, I install 9ias(9.0.2.0.1) infrastucture and form server into same machine,
after sucessfull installation it is mention infrastucture will run the port 7777 and form will 7778,
but after just installation it work into these ports but when i restats the system then port of infrastucture change and it is 7779.
now if i run forms the it give internal error 500,
then I stop fist infrastucture http server then http server of form
and again first start infrastucture hhtp server then form http server
now agin infrastructure server port id 7779(insted of 7777)
but now my form work properly.
every day i do this job , but some time this method fails then i have to again install server and have to repeate above mention job .
pls help me
With regards
Siddharth Singh

Mid-tier listens on a lot of ports. On a std install (with both Infra and Mid-tier) Web-cache listens on port 7778 "in front of" httpd for OHS on 7779. So perhaps you forget to start web-cache? (run from BI home: webcachectl)
Perhaps the problem with Forms is related to X Toolkit?

First WES7 start takes huge time on some machines

Hi,
we have a WES7 image that resembles full-blown W7. We don't use EWF/HORM or other embedded features. Everything is OK, except that on the recent HP desktop units for some machines the first boot takes ages (literally, it takes 4-5 hours to complete!!).
Windows boots normal and then sits in the 'Setup is installing devices 69%' screen for a very long time. It doesn't hang, as numbers are counting (till 75% or so) and then it works perfectly. The
disk is not loaded during the wait, the CPU probably not as well, at least the cooler is not running fast.
From 10 machines from one batch it happens on approximately half. It was not observed before (on older HP machines and on any other customer machines) and it started only with the new HP EliteDesk G1 800 SFF machines.
Quite weird issue and if in house we can simply wait for 5 hours per machine, then on field it's not acceptable at all.
Does anybody have any idea what to check or what to do to resolve the issue?
Thanks in advance,
Nikolai
WBR, Nikolai

Hello Sean,
sorry for a long delay, was busy with the release/etc. So, last Friday I was managed to reproduce the case. As I told before, OOBE went smooth till ~60% of drivers installation and then it drastically slowed down. Finally (after 3 hours) it's finished. I did
re-installation around 10 times in 2 days and it hangs twice.
I checked panther folder and found first this info in setupact.log
(here is the link on the full log http://www.webcctv.com/files/%7B70F7C68D-EF19-45F7-85EB-E3F571EFB7EA%7D/setupact.zip, it's 21 kB in zip file)

Opening /Attaching a BDS document to an HCM form (Adobe interactive)

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to attach a document in the Adobe Interactive form used for Employee recruitment process.
The document will be stored in the user's local machine.
We are using HRASR_DT to design the recruitment process.
We are not able to open the document from HCM form.
Can anybody help us resolving the same?
~BiSu

Hello,
I don´t understand when/who/how do you attach files. I also don´t understand what does not work: who cannot read the attachments? The machine/SAP system or the user? In the step after the step when the attachments were attached? Orin any stpe? Please elaborate a little. This seems like a difficult problem (at least for me) and any additionl info could help a lot here.
Regards Otto

HCM forms and Processes - Adobe

Hi,
I am working on HCM forms and processes( not QISRs ). I want to populate a drop down list based on the selection of another dropdown list, how can we acheive this in Adobe forms. Should I go about configuring some back end generic service? if so how will the backend service get triggered based on my selection.. Any idea on this is highly appreciated
Thanks.

Hi
To archive above functionality we can use below simple method, if u r expectig same functionality through operations and custom event give me some time i need to recall some functioality(At present i am unable to acces MY SAP)
Let my BADI name is   Z_Positions .
Letu2019s define two attributes in my BADI like E_DATE and DD1.
For to understand better create one methods as same as input and out parameters of Get_Help_Values method.
So my methods is F4_Vac_Pos
Method:- F4_Vac_Pos
            Read the entered value of the Effective date (by reading service datasets with passing key as filename =E_Date)
Once if we able to read the Effective date, cheek is initialize are not(value is there or not).
     If it is not initialize go ahead else return.
     If it is not initialize fill all vacant positions in DD1 based on by passing key as readied
                   Effective date.
Call this methods in get_help_values method.
From Configuration side:-
Created Effective_date and F4_DD1attributes.
Add your custom generic service to form (let assume service no is 200 ).
Go to the assignment of custom generic service; map the F4_DD1 form attributes to the BADI attribute DD1 and cheek default value and value help.
The same way map form Effective_date attribute to BADI E_date (donu2019t select value help option)
Now adobe java script:-
Write the below piece of code on click method of button
xfa.record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_EVENT.value = "USER_EVENT_CHECK";
ContainerFoundation_JS.SendMessageToContainer(event.target, "submit", "", "", "", "");
Data Flow:-
Once the date is selected, click on the Button. As we know already for every round trip get_help_values method will call. Now it will call.
As already effective date value is mapped to one of the custom badi attribute, so we are able to read this value through service data set.
While filling DD1 values we are filtering data based on effective date. Now at badi level we are filtered vacant position based on effective date.
As this one is mapped to F4_DD1 form attribute, once round trip is completed u will see filtered vacant position based on effective date.

I want to run IIS and Form Server on same machine

Dear follows
I have problems , porblems is that i want to run IIS and Form
Server at same machine but i m facing some problems so please
inform me right proceduers to run this services at same machnine
now i m using Windows NT .
My secone problems is that i want to send emai via oracle
reports , actuall condition is that i have oracle report and i
want to add button and behind this boutton i want to add trigger
to send this report as a emai to client as txt/html format.

There shouldn't be any problem running both forms server and IIS
on the same machine. Just make sure the ports that are used are
different. IIS's default port is 80, so either change this port

Drop down lists in Interactive forms:HCM Forms&Processes

Hi Experts,
I am working in HCM Forms and Process.
I have 2 dropdown lists in my interactive form such as COUNTRY, STATE. The STATE dropdown should be populated based on the COUNTRY field dynamically.
I have written the logic for STATE dropdown in the method GET_STATES of Custom Generic Service Implementation Class and that method is used in the OPERATION of FIELDGROUP in Form Scenario.
The Java Script in the EXIT event for COUNTRY is as follows.
xfa.record.CONTROL_PARAM.ISR_EVENT.VALUE = u201CGET_STATES";
app.eval(u201Cevent.target.SAPSubmit();u201D);
Still the the STATE lists is not populating in the form in Portal.
Please provide some valuable inputs on this.
Thanks in advance

Hi Mukesh,
Thanks for your response.
It seems the script is not triggering .I didnt get the alert message.
I am working in Citrix and SAP GUI 710 has been installed now. Still, I can't insert Webdynpro Script. It is showing one error "Error while inserting Webdynpro script".
Earlier, in SAP GUI 640, I was able to see with the Data view with the interface import parameters. Now the Data view(Left side of Layout) has no elements , although the form is linked with an Abap dictionary based interface.
Do you have any idea why these kind of errors are coming? Is this the problem with Citrix ?

HCM forms and process with single workflow

Hi Experts,
Can we use single workflow for multiple form scenarios?
Actually we have some 10 scenarios with 20 forms. We planned to combine all the scenario's in a single workflow and use it in different form scenario.
Is it possible or we need to create a separate workflow for each process?
Thanks in advance,
Helps will be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Rick.
For normal workflows its fine. I would like to know for HCM forms and process will it allow or not?
