How to change 10g forms url ?

Hello,
I developed forms in 10g forms developer and I can call my forms from web browser with default url like http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=myform.
Is there anyway the change that url like http://myform.com or something?
Thank you for your replies :)

Well, the first thing to understand is that when you call the Forms Servlet (frmservlet) you are calling a java application and not static content like an html page. So, changing the URL isn't exactly as easy as it would be for a simple web page. On the other hand, hiding the the real URL or redirecting to the proper url can be done fairly easily.
All of these assume you are using Application Server.
OPTION 1 - Hide The URL +(more information can be found in MyOracleSupport note 300326.1)+
<blockquote>There are several ways in which you can hide the real url, but probably the easiest will be to use an IFRAME. The only potential problem with this is that some security software or browser security settings may prevent this from working. So, here's what you do:
1. Using an HTML or text editor, create a static html file with the following code. Replace my Forms url with your own.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>My Application</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET  ROWS="100%,*" FRAMEBORDER=NO FRAMESPACING=0 BORDER=0>
<FRAME SRC="http://someServer:port/forms/frmervlet?config=myconfg" NAME="redir_frame">
</FRAMESET>
<NOFRAMES>
Sorry, your browser does not support frames.  Click <A HREF="http://someServer:port/forms/frmervlet?config=myconfg" TARGET=_top>here</A>
</NOFRAMES>
<BODY>
    <!-- ADD ANY EXTRA HTML CODE AS NEEDED -->
</BODY>
</HTML>2. In the Oracle home from where OHS is running, find the htdocs directory within the OHS (apache) directories.
3. Rename "index.html", "index.html_original"
4. Copy your html file to this directory and name it "index.html"
It is possible that the html file being used is not "index.html". To determine the correct page, you may need to review your httpd.conf file as this is where the default page is set. Look for DirectoryIndex</blockquote>
OPTION 2 - Redirect To The Proper URL
<blockquote>1. Find and open httpd.conf
2. Within the file, locate this: <Directory />
3. Just below this line add the following. Use your own Forms url
RedirectMatch ^/$ /forms/frmservlet?config=somewhere</blockquote>

  • Hi can anyone tell me how to make the forms url short to the end user

    Hi,
    Im using oracle forms 11gR2 and everything is working fine, but my question in how to make the forms url short to the end user.
    For example my forms url is  " http://localhost:9001/forms/frmservlet "  now i want to modify this url as   "myweb.gov.ae"
    can anybody suggest me the possibilities to change to default forms url to our own url as mentioned in the above example.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Hari

    You would have to either -
    * edit the code pointed to by the new action attribute to
    include the form
    processing and email generation, or
    * edit the form processing script to also include the insert
    record and
    check user name scripting
    The former is probably the better procedure, since I suppose
    you'd want to
    do the check user name before sending the email.
    Unfortunately, this means
    you will have to get your hands into the code, or hire
    someone to do it for
    you.

  • How to change the endpoint url of the siebel service ?

    Hi All,
    JDev : 11.1.1.5
    I am fetching data from the siebel webservice. I created the proxy client from the Siebel WSDL in the JDeveloper. It was working fine.
    Now the endpoint URL(Server) is changed. This service fails to connect to that server. The service name is same.
    I want to fetch the end point urls from a property file, so that, even again if the server is changed, i have to change it in my property file.
    How to change the End point URL at runtime before calling the service ?
    This is my endpoint URL.

  • Oracle 10g forms URL

    Hi All,
    When I launch forms application from forms builder, it uses automatically URL as http://administatror:8889/forms/frmservlet

    Oracle forms uses default browser to launch application. Is there any way to specify which browser it should take to launch application? I could see Edit -> Preferences - > Run time for Web browser location. In case if I use internet browser, what is the location I need to specify? Where exactly IE resides in Windows XP?

You can find this normally at C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe.
    For Internet Explorer C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE
    Hope this will help you.

  • How to change the Forms and Reports's NLS_LANG character set on OAS

    Hi,
    I'm having problems with the OAS10g's actual character set, when displaying a report made with Reports Builder 10g who has the letter "ñ" it displays "ñ " with a blank space at the final so i need to change this character set for one that suits this requirement.
    which file or files should i change ??
    could this change affect something else, for example another product in my OAS ??
    Regards
    Carlos

    I have this Forms and Reports Application in Brazilian Potuguese. What I do at new installations is:
    1. Open this file: <MiddlewareOracleHome>/forms/server/default.env and add the NLS parameters below the FORMS_PATH definition:
    FORMS_PATH=D:\Oracle\home207middle\forms;D:\MYENV\Exe;D:\MYENV\Imagens
    NLS_LANG=BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE_BRAZIL.WE8MSWIN1252
    NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=,.2. Open this file: <MiddlewareOracleHome>/reports/conf/<your_report_server_name>.conf and create an "environment" section with the NLS variables:
       <environment id="MYENV">
          <envVariable name="REPORTS_PATH" value="D:\MYENV\Exe;D:\MYENV\Imagens"/>
          <envVariable name="NLS_LANG" value="BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE_BRAZIL.WE8MSWIN1252"/>
          <envVariable name="NLS_DATE_FORMAT" value="DD/MM/YYYY"/>
          <envVariable name="NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS" value=",."/>
       </environment>For this one to work, the application must set RP2RROREPORTSENV=MYENV before launching the report.

  • 10g forms URL Portal

    Please help............................
    We are going to 10g using the following URL through portal
    http://apphost1.univ-wea.com:7777/forms/frmservlet?form=jat_test&seperateframe=no
    The issue is when you click on uRL twice and call forms it locks up each other.
    I have created a shortcut with this URL. I open two forms by clikcing this URL twice.I press CTRL + F11 to query on one form. Then I go to second window to open another form. I cannot work on second form till first form is done processing.
    This locking of forms does not happen when I paste this URL two times in internet explorer ( Not using the short cut I created) and initiate the form. We need this URL to be working through portal so each time you call this link it should start in new internet explorer.
    Help please.....

    Hi Yogesh,
    I think you need to change you DNS server mapping.
    You can also try to change to virtual hosts property in the UME
    i.e.
    http://<host name>:<portnumber>/nwa
    Under System Management --> Configuration
    you'll find the virtual hosts.

  • How to change an applicationu00B4s URL for language ??

    Hello,
    I´m using runtime->construct_bsp_url in the INIT method of my main class for determining the URL of my application, which in time delivers:
    https://sap19230.os.fth.sbs.de/sap/bc/bsp/sap/it00/test.htm
    and I want to add the aggregate for the logon language like
    https://sap19230.os.fth.sbs.de/sap/bc/bsp/sap/it00/test.htm?sap-sessioncmd=open&sap-client=090&sap-language=DE
    the question here is how I´m gonna set the new URL ??
    thanks !!

    Hello,
    that looks better but I still have a problem. Method CREATE_URL_FOR_BSP_APPLICATION delivers an absolute URL
    http://localhost:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/ztest/main.htm?SAP-LANGUAGE=EN
    which I in time pass to the application like
    navigation->call_application( abs_url ).
    in event OnRequest. The browser tries to do something quickly and then I get a white page with "Page cannot be displayed". When I suppress the above code, the URL looks like this
    http://localhost:8000/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMA==)/bc/bsp/sap/ztest/main.htm
    So, why is this ??
    Thanks
