Is it possible to run Discoverer 10g non apps on an Applications database

Hello,
I am currently working with a customer whose Discoverer implementation was originally implemented with Discoverer 3.1.36 before apps mode existed.
It was installed on an Apps database (Financials).
It was then upgraded to 4 - still in non apps mode and all was ok.
However, now they need to upgrade to 10g, and rather than go through all the rewriting of their security etc (they have an awful lot of custom folders etc), they have asked if they can upgrade their Discoverer 4 non apps EUL to Disco 10g non apps.
However, during some preliminary testing, it seems that some views are not returning data - for example, fnd_flex_values_vl.
If they log in to the test env with Discoverer 4, the data returns with no issues, however with Discoverer 10g (and the same user) it does not.
They are logging in with the eul owner both times and this user contains both the Disco 4 and Disco 10 tables in its schema, so the grants etc are identical.
Is there a technical reason that whilst this worked at 4, it no longer does in 10?
Kind regards

What happens if they log in as an application user (rather than EUL owner) to retrieve data from these VL views ?

  • How to run Discoverer 10g report from unix command line

    Hello Experts,
    I am aware that discoverer report can run through command line using "dis51usr.exe /connect username/passward@connection_string /opendb "DISCOVERER.<<report name>> /export xls"".
    Can we run discoverer 10g report (stored in database) from server location / unix command line? Is there any command?
    Please assist. Thank you.

    Hi Tamir,
    Can you please mention from where we have to execute/run these commands? After setting enviornmental variable, are these commands run from any location or we have to go to particular server location and then execute (ex. from directory BI or else).
    Thank you.

    I don't know if CE holds a full blown version of a JVM required to run forms....we don't have any certification plans currently for CE.

  • Is it possible to run two GPS tracking apps simultaneously?

    I have a couple of apps that track your position via GPS, like MotionX GPS. They run in the background under iOS 4.2.1. Is it possible to run two of these at the same time? Will they both get GPS updates from the OS as quick as they would if only one were running?

    Before someone says "try it and see if it works," I plan to. I just haven't had a chance yet.

  • Running Reports 10g on Apps Server

    We have a Windows 2003 apps server running Oracle Forms and Reports 10g.
    We are having a problem running reports in Oracle 10g, and believe it to be something to do with the configuration files. Currently, we can run the test report through Enterprise Manager using both the default reports service and the one that we have created. However we are unable to run our own reports through forms.
    To check that there was nothing wrong with our forms, we copied one of the reports into the …\forms10g\reports\samples\demo folder to see if we could run it through Enterprise Manager. However, we get the following error:
    Rep-110: Unable to open file ……
    Rep-1070: Error while opening or saving a document.
    Rep-0110: Unable to open file …...
    We then renamed the test.rdf file and tried to run that. Again we got the above message. Next we tried again to run test.rdf, even though this no longer existed, and the report ran. This implied that it isn't actually running the report, but has the report output stored somewhere, and it just displays this.
    No matter how we try to run reports, and with which reports service, we always get the above error.
    So why is it that no reports will run, not even the test one when it is renamed? Is there a configuration setting somewhere?

    Hi All,
    Hope YOu are fine.
    We have running Oracle Forms and Reports Services 10g on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
    The Application Works fine, and reports are generated successfully.
    But when we access the same application by using either Linux OS (RHEL 4.0, Ubuntu 6),
    The forms works fine but Linux OS could not run the report.
    This seems to be a configuration problem.
    Any Clues.
    Thanks and Looking Forward.

  • Scheduling in Discoverer 10g

    Hi,
    We are currently running Discoverer 10g plus. Is it possible to increment the parameters on the schedule similar to Oracle requests that give the option to 'Increment date parameters each run'?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Hi
    That is the correct location but it isn't on the Application Server home. You'll find it on the PC that has the Administrator tool installed.
    Typically it's here: C:\Oracle\BIToolsHome_1\discoverer\util

  • To run Forms 10g on Windows Mode

    Is there possibility to run Forms 10g on Windows mode, not on Web ?
    Thanks.

    If you want to test your forms locally there is an OC4J component with the Developer Suite which can be started so you can run your Forms on your local station. This is no client/server but you run your webforms local.

  • Is it possible to run a command when a monitor goes to a healthy state?

     
    Hi,  I'm using SCOM 2007R2
    Is it possible to run a command/script when a web application Monitor changes to a healthy state?
    I have a web application monitor that checks four different websites from our proxy servers.  on the aggregate rollup of all four sites I have a health rollup policy of 'Best state' meaning
    that the monitor will only go critical if all four sites are unreachable. If that happens I have a Diagnostic task that runs to Stop the w3svc service.
    This stops the proxy server serving ‘Page cannot be displayed’ content to the users within the company.
    What I would like to do is start IIS automatically when the web application monitor goes to a healthy state.
    I’m guessing I’m going to need a script that perhaps pings the sites every few minutes then starts the w3svc service if it gets a result.

    Hi,
    I recommend you touch the Orchestrator, Orchestrator can integrate
    SCOM.

  • Is it possible to run C++ in Apache Tomcat?

    Can anybody please tell whether it is possible to run the C++ code in Apache Tomcat Application Server.
    I could not find any proper answer when i googled.

    Tomcat is a java web server. 'nuff said I
    would say. The only way to invoke C++ code is by
    putting it in a java JNI compatible library and
    invoking it from java.Not quite this simple. Tomcat can be configured to run CGI and, depending on what the c++ is doing, it may be possible to run it as CGI.

  • Can you run SCO UNIX platform apps on 10.4?

    Just wodering if it is possible to run SCO UNIX platform apps on a Mac?
    I have 2 applications designed to run on SCO UNIX and I would be interested to see how they work.
    I don't know anything about the us of UNIX BTW
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Hi Atlantean,
       It's certainly not possible to run a precompiled binary and SCO isn't exactly known for their open source community spirit. They'd probably sue you. I'm a little surprised that you'd mention them in polite company.

  • Running forms 10g from a discoverer ias installation. Is it possible?

    Hi, I want to run an application based on forms 10g using an iAS 10.1.2 that is actually been used to run Discoverer. In the iAS directory structure I can't find the "forms" folder or any of the configuration files (formsweb.cfg, default.env, Registry.dat, etc). Anyway, I could find OC4J_BI_Forms, and when I run "opmnctl status" that service is up and running (Alive).
    In order to install and run my forms application:
    - Do I have to install the "forms server" component to this iAS?, or may I use the current OC4J_BI_Forms to run other forms (and libraries)?
    - Or maybe, do I have to install the forms enabled iAS in a different ORACLE_HOME to be able to run my forms?
    I guess the version and releases numbers are not completely relevant. All I know about versions is the installed iAS whose release is 10.1.2.
    Thanks in advance

    You can easily do this using pack & unpack.
    Change the machines in the managed servers where SOA is running. Pack the domain with -managed option. Unpack the domain in the new machine. Start the soa server now. It will start using the resources in the new machine.
    Eg:
    Currently Machine A has Admin Server, One WLS Managed Server & One SOA Server. You want to shift SOA server to machine B. Change the machine of SOA server using Admin Console. Pack the domain in Machine A. It will create a template jar. Copy the jar file to Machine B. Unpack it there.
    Make sure, you have same MW_HOME & ORACLE_HOME directory structure in both Machine A & B.
    My answers are based on that you are on 11gR1.

  • Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-reports(10g) with Apps(11.5.0)

    We are running Discoverer Viewer(4i) to run Discoverer-Workbooks(10g) with Apps(11.5.0) but we are facing error like 'Unable to fetch workbook' .I guess this is b'coz EUL created in 10g not getting compatible with 4i Discoverer Viewer.
    If this is the problem what is my next step?
    Can anyone plz help me in detail.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    You would need to upgrade everything to the same level if you want to open Discoverer 10g workbooks. This means your EUL will need to be upgraded and you will need to abandon the 4i server and upgrade to the 10g server.
    I would encourage you to do so anyway because 10g is much better than 4i.

    Well, if I had to do it, here's how I'd start.
    1. Get the SQL from the Oracle Report and then create a database view that's more generic based on the SQL but still gets the answers.
    For example, you'd not code many conditions, etc. but the database view would be pointing to the correct Oracle Apps tables / views.
    Once you've got the view, bring it in to Disco Admin, etc. and create a report from it that now adds the extra conditions needed. That way you can use the underlying concept without hard coding things like dates, etc. which you would ask the user at run time.
    However ... as you may well know ... Oracle Reports can do some 'strange and/or powerful things' on the fly and, for example, it may be something like a temporary table generated for the report, etc. so may become a much bigger issue.
    2. If you have NoetixViews views then they'll most likely already have the views for these queries already created as they're reasonable for what's needed in an Oracle environment.
    3. I'd see if there is already a pre-defined BIS view that covers this as well. Again, you're in an area that's pretty popular so if a BIS view already covers much of the same info then you've got a create view 'head start' already. Check views owned by Apps starting with the application plus FV or FG (the one you'd really want) such as: GLFG_Budgets_To_Actuals to see what I mean.
