IDS 10g OC4J

Question

I am trying to config my local OC4J to be able to execute my applications the same way I do it using the application server.
If I execute from builder one module works fine, but If I wan to use web.show_document it didn't work. It sends me Teh page cannot be foud.
I use webutil procedures and functions to retreive a document from the table and put it in my file system. It is well extract it and copy to my file system ('C:\Temporal\') as a pdf file. But if I try to use a web.show_document it didn't work (sends me in a new internet window the message I wrote before).
This is my default.env and forms.conf setup (the specific part):
1. default.env
# Search path for Forms applications (.fmx files, PL/SQL libraries)
# If you need to include more than one directory, they should be semi-colon
# separated (e.g. c:\test\dir1;c:\test\dir2)
# Definicion de variables de ambiente para EVTMS.
#FORMS_PATH=M:\APPS\V3.0\Templates;M:\APPS\V3.0\Forms;M:\APPS\V3.0\Icons
FORMS_PATH=C:\Other;M:\APPS\V3.0\Icons
FORMS_REJECT_GO_DISABLED_ITEM=0     
NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
PLSQL_DATE_FORMAT=DD-MON-YYYY HH24MI
FORMS_TIMEOUT=3
2. forms.conf
# Virtual path for local filesystem test
AliasMatch ^/file/upload/(..*) "C:\Other/$1"
# Virtual path mapping for FormsServlet and ListenerServlet.
# Purpose: paths to invoke the servlets should be /forms/frmservlet
# and /forms/lservlet respectively.
# We map frmservlet to servlet.frm, and lservlet to servlet.frml.
# The apJServAction directives (below) will then remap those.
AliasMatch ^/forms/frmservlet(.*) "/servlet.frm"
AliasMatch ^/forms/lservlet(.*) "/servlet.frml"
# Adecuación para EVTMS
AliasMatch ^/forms/evtms_icons(.*) "M:\APPS\V3.0\Icons/$1"
#AliasMatch ^/forms/evtms_forms(.*) "M:\APPS\V3.0\Forms/$1"
AliasMatch ^/forms/evtms_forms(.*) "C:\Other/$1"
I already use the folder C:\Other as you see in the forms.conf as my path to upload and download files and document through webutil and be able to acces through my application
3. webutil.cfg
# This lines are included to be able to read and write to filesystem through application
# on test from Developer 10g Builder
transfer.appsrv.workAreaRoot=C:\Other
transfer.appsrv.read.1=C:\Other
transfer.appsrv.write.1=C:\Other
I can download as I wrote before, any document retreived from the database table to these folder (C:\Other), but when I try to displayed as same as I do it using the production system over iAS, It sends me the internet browser with the: page connot be found.
I check the folder and the document is there and I can open it with double click.
Any idea if I can config my OC4J to open thses document and using as same as I use 9iAS?
The other issue related with the OC4J is, in production environment with iAS, I can access my system through a loggin module which once valid the user, password and database, open another module using run_product built-in. it works fine in production with 9iAS but if I try to do it through my fosm 10g builder and my OC4J it didn't work. It open the loggin module but whren I press the conection button to validate the loggin information, it sends me the following error:
FRM-92101 There was a failure during the forms server startup or this error
Conection from new browser window not supported
Any ideas or help.
Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Unfortunately, I don't understand your issue(s) as it appears that you are trying to describe multiple problems within on statement.
That said, here are some points which may help:
1. WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT is intended to display content which resides on the server. The content will appear in the client browser. The content will usually be standard web content, meaning html, pdf, images, etc. The value will be one which uses standard URL syntax, for example:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://server/something/someDoc.htm','_blank');
2. You appear to be accessing network shares. This is not recommended as it can cause performance issues as well as other issues such as "file not found" errors. This is related to the way in which the OS operates and is not a problem with the Oracle software.
3. "Connection from new browser window not supported..." is usually the result of trying to start a second or subsequent form using a shortcut or Ctrl+N from a browser. This is not recommended although in most cases this problem should not occur in newer Forms version (10.1.2). There have been some bugs and notes which have been written and discuss how to work around the problem, but in short, shortcuts and same browser sessions should not be used.
