How to configure a forms 6i server

Hi
I am trying to configure an oracle 6i server for a college project and need some help. I have the documentation but its very confusing and not beginner orientated!
I am using windows XP. The forms server 6i,Apache and Jinitiator are installed in the following folders all on the same machine:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2
C:\orant\FORMS60\server
C:\orant\jinit
How do i configure the Forms Server? I am connecting to a database over a network and the forms i am using are in the folder:
C:\orant\FORMS60\server
What environment variables should i change and to what?
What modifications should i make to the configuration files generated by th oracle installer i.e formsweb.cfg,base.htm and basejini.htm
As you can see i really need your help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jackie

Ive looked over the base.htm file and formsweb.cfg file and they appear to be fine but i may be missing something,.maybe you can see something i cant in these files:
On opening the base.htm file nothing happens even when i directly
specify the mainmenu form
the base file contains:

How to configure Https in Project server 2010.

HI,
Can i any one help me,
How to configure Https in Project server 2010.
My server farm is 1.Test1(App & Wfe) 2. Test2(App & Wfe)
Both are load balanced wit NLB as abc.hyd.in
DO i need to Install certificate in two servers Test1 & Test2 or one server is enough ?
Can any one please provide me a link to configure Https for project server 2010 for Two Farms Servers.
Thank You, Kumar KSV

There is no special configuration for Project Server to have the IIS enabled, it follows the typical sharepoint SSL enablement, we might need some mor edetails on how your NLB is done is it hardware based, software based ? it all depends how you want
to architecht the system, you can enable the Https either on NLB or WFE, again depending upon how you want to enable it, you will need to install the certificates on both WFE or on NLB
Follow the blog below to configure the SSL:

How to configure adobe forms in OMLV for printing picking slip

Hello,
I want to configure a adobe form in OMLV transaction. But there is no column for putting adobe forms.
Can you tell me how do configure adobe forms for getting it printed from standard transaction whenever a transfer order is created.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ajay,
You are completely right that you cannot find anything with smartform in the customizing (OMLV). The reason for it: It is not there. It not even exists. Also the latest version of rlvsdr40 has nothing standard concerning smartforms.
I do not know why it is really necessary to use adobe or smartforms.
The only way is to build a new one (ZRLVSDR40). In that new one you have to use the sapscriptname (from OMLV)and treat it as a smartform- name.
I hope my explanation helps. Success.

How To Configure My Forms And Reports In IAS10g?

Hi Gurus,
I installed database 10g,IAS10g,forms and reports10g(J2EE/OC4J
Environment) separately.
now i want to configure my forms and reports in IAS 10g.i can run the form from
formbuilder after started the oc4j.but i am not able to run in ias .
anybody know the link" how to configure forms and reports in ias " just
forward to me.
Regards
Gopinath M

Hi,
you should be able to do the same because Forms and Reports are automatically set up. You need to customize the tnsnames.ora of te applicationServer Network/Admin directoy to point to the database you created. Then you configure the Forms application in the formsweb.cfg file of the Forms/server directory
The access is through the HTTP port of the application server

OC4J Standalone is for use by development and small-medium scale production deployments. Specifically, OC4J Standalone supports HTTP and HTTPS natively without the use of Oracle HTTP Server. It does not have support for load balancing, clustering, or management through Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g. To use those features, customers must install one of the Oracle Application Server installation types, such as J2EE + WebCache. The standalone version is supported in a single instance, single JVM, and single machine configuration.

How to Configure MS Office Comminication Server 2007 with WebCenter Spaces?

Hello All,
Has anyone successfully configured MS Office Comminication Server(OCS 2007) with WebCenter 11g Spaces?
I have installed the RTCServices on the MS OCS server, and wll the services and wsdls are accessible. The IM is working with MS Communicator and also Communicator Web Access (CWA). The Webcenter administrator guide does not have any configuration information about how to use the RTCServices (extracted from Oracle's owc_lcs.zip, part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Companion 11g).
In the EM's webcenter control -->Settings -->Service Configuration, I tried to create a new IM service and an External Application but not sure what the URL to use.
If anyone have a successful OCS 2007 integration, could you please share your configuration steps?
Thanks,
Johnny

Hi,
I am also facing the same issue, not sure about what url to use. And also the login webservice doesn't work while I am testing using http://localhost:81/RTC/RTCService.asmx. It always throwing the following error
" Unable to cast COM object of type 'RTCLib.RTCClientClass' to interface type 'RTCLib.IRTCClient'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{07829E45-9A34-408E-A011-BDDF13487CD1}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE))."
Is the current owc_lcs.zip support MS Office Communication Server 2007?
Please share the configuration step if anyone already integrated OCS 2007.
Thanks,
-Mukesh.

How to configure 9i Forms Services Demo Manually

Hi,
I want to customize the forms services demo and run from my own configuration file i mean instead of forms90demo.cfg file i want to create my own cfg file and run the forms how to do this?
for example currently to run a demo i need to give the url as
http://machine:8888/forms90demo/f90servlet?config=xxx
i want it as
http://machine:8888/<myconfigname>/f90servlet?config=xxx
how to manually configure the demo? to run in a customized way
Plus will this demo run on Unix? and how to configure in Unix?
All the above questions for 9i DS, coming to 9iAS how to configure/install on Windows and Unix?
Regards
Mahesh

Do the following to select an own config file for the f90demo:
- Open file web.xml
(in: oracle_home\forms90\demos\j2ee\forms90demo\
forms90demo\WEB-INF)
- specify your configuration file name between tags
<param-value> and </param-value>
(under <param-name> configFileName</param-name>)
Do not forget to  tags around this
<init-param> section.
- Do not use "" around the filename.
You can also copy the whole <servlet> ... </servlet> section of f90servlet, and give a new servlet name (e.g. f90demo instead of f90servlet). From then on you can use f90demo as a servlet. You must, before you can use this new servlet alias, also make a copy of the servlet-mapping section for this alias.
Servlet aliasses are a perfect way to make configurations in two dimensions, one using config sections in the config file (e.g. for different applications), the other using servlet aliasses in web.xml (e.g. different environments, such as dev and prod).

How to configure AD and Token server (over radius) authentication

Dear forum,
I have a scenario where users should be allowed network access after their have given their AD credentials and a token (Blackshield Token server).
The token server speaks over radius to the cisco ACS appliance. I have managed to get users authenticated by means of their AD credentials. I am how ever not able to use both means in order to have a successfull authentication.
Does anyone have a configuration example for this scenario? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!

Hi,
I have had two deployments using this form of authentication.
Just so we are on the same page, the token servers that I have integrated connect to an Active Directory server running NPS (MS radius), then the user will have to send their password+token and the token software will check the account password, and then the token to see if the users succeeds.
Let me know if that is the design of your software. If it is, then all you need to do is configure the token software to run on radius and then set the policies up from there. From the network device standpoint it just needs to point to the radius server.
Thanks,
Tarik Admani

How to configure Oracle forms/reports 10g to Oracle Database 10g

Dear All,
I have downloaded oracle Developer Suite 10g for microsoft Windows (CD1/CD2) from edelivery.oracle.com.
I have also downloaded Oracle 10g xe edition from oracle.com.
Both above software are on the same machine.
Now, I have creaated new database, created few tablespaces,tables,indexes,functions etc on it. SID_NAME=xe.
I want to configure both the software(connect them) so that i can generate some reports, create forms and applications(on the same machine not on network).
How do i do that?
Best Regards,

did you set tns_admin? do you know what it's for?
don't edit tnsnames.ora manually if you can help it.
you have 2 tnsnames.ora. one is from the xe install. the other is from the developer suite install.
what does the one for your developer suite look like?
if you used the the network config assistant in a straightforward way, then it should end up with an entry similar to what you have in your tnsnames.ora from your xe installation.
the netconfig assistant has a TEST step in it. did you try that? you might need to change the username/password when you test it.
the main thing here is the tnsnames.ora. the way it will be located is in a particular order. it will check in this order, more or less
1. in current working directory
2. TNS_ADMIN defined by the session
3. TNS_ADMIN defined as a global environment (in control panel)
4. TNS_ADMIN defined in registry
5. default location (network\admin directory).
so if your developer says it can't resolve the name, then it means it is not defined in the tnsnames.ora it used. you need to determine which tnsnames.ora file it's using, and is it configured correctly.
if you did not set tns_admin, check your E:\DevSuiteHome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
this is the one developer will use by default.
it should have an entry similar to the one from your xe install e.g.
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = oraclelaptop.yic.edu.sa)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
then when you run forms/reports, you should connect as user/password@xe

How to configure weblogic 8.1 server for connecting to Oracle8.1.7

Hi all,
I m am A.Rama Krishna. I want an information regarding the connection to
Oracle8.1.7 from weblogic8.1 Application server. I did every thing that I can
do as mentioned in Documentation. But the datasource object is not available in
JNDI tree. And also one more thing, after creating the connection pool with some
name, I have to select the server to which I have to bind it by clicking "Target
& Deploy" option. All the active servers in my domain are displayed there with
a check box beside it asking me to choose all those severs to which I have to
bind the connection pool. Once I check the server and click "Apply" button, a
message like "Error on the page" dispalys on the bottom status bar. How to fix
this problem. Please advice me some thng. I created all the connectionpool and
Data source objects during the creating the server in the new domain with the
help of Wizard.
Thanx in advance
Regards
Ram

Rama,
If you have created and deployed a connection pool and data source via the
WebLogic Server console, you should be able to access it from the Workshop
IDE.
If you configured the connection pool and datasource during configuration
time, can you login to the console and check if they have been created and
deployed successfully ?
Can you also provide more information on what your are trying to ? Are you
trying to create a db control which use this datasource ?
Thanks

How to configure the wiki/blog server to share the embed LDAP

All
anyone know the steps to share the embed LDAP to the wiki/blog server? the SSO steps of course meet the requirement, but all i haveto do is to setup the ENV to work with the demo custom apps for avoiding login twice. any input are appreciated.

And i assumed wrong :)
You are not using the latest version of WebCenter. According to what i see, you are using webcenter 11.1.1.3 or earlier which does not use UCM as wiki and blog service.
So basicly all the links i provided in my previous post are useless for you.
To be honnest, configuring wiki and blog in pre PS3 environment is a real pain in the "you know what i mean".
The reason for this is that you will need to create a few keystores, configure SSO,... The instruction that explains how is very long and difficult and in the end, you end up with integrating iframes which is not nice...
That's why since PS3, webcenter uses UCM to store the wiki and blog services.
If it's for a demo application, why not use the latest version?
