Migrate forms with folders with FormDefUtil

Hi,
I'm trying to migrate forms using FormDefUtil.cmd, to an empty directory tree under my Planning application (new created application in DEV environment).
When I import all forms using "FormDefUtil import -all localhost admin planning", it puts all, or most forms under the root directory, without creating the directory tree.
Is there a way for the utility, or LCM, to pre-create the directory tree? I'd like to use the utility, because we've had issues with using parentheses () in forms names, and they aren't coming over in LCM.
Thanks in advance,
Zach

As Abhishek said, create your folder structure in the target environment and import.
Also if you have duplicate named folders look at where your forms import after the fact as they seem to go to one folder or the other not the folder they were in structurally; we logged the folder issue as an SR FYI.
Good to know about parenthesis and LCM -- it also doesn't like ampersands for certain items e.g. Essbase filter names.

Do migrated forms still interact with EBS database?

Once you have completed a EBS forms conversion into APEX, are you able to have the new APEX applications forms read/write from the EBS database?
For instance ,say your wanting to take currently used forms XYZ out of EBS and put them into APEX so you can create a better UI and such for them or just give the users better use of the data. Can the EBS users then use those forms rather then the EBS ones to do their same day to day functions?
I'm just not seeing anything regarding how the APEX forms would interact with the EBS data tables, but i could be overlooking something.
A simple Yes/No would be great, a yes w/ some pointers or tags to documentation would get ya some bonus points!
Thanks,
Jeremy

A good example could be a custom form for some module that you built using Oracle Forms for the 11i stack. Maybe it maintains data in a custom table that you use for reporting or extension purposes.
You know that although R12 supports Forms in the techs tack, its going to be de-supported in the future in favor of ADF/Fusion/Next Java technology. You don't have a lot of java experience in your shop and want to retain the pl/sql developers you have, so you decide you will use Apex for your custom form development from now on instead of forms or OAF.
Apex is really no different than any other framework (no matter what anyone will lead you to believe). Its great for interactive applications, forms, read-only..etc. So if you can do it in java, you can do it in Apex. I completely agree that you absolutely do not want to modify the EBS forms in any way - in fact by doing so you are pretty much de-supporting yourself as support won't touch anything that didnt come from Oracle directly.

SMB/CIFS browsing slow with folders with many files

My NAS (Buffalo Linkstation HG) SMB/CIFS browsing from OSX is slow when a folder has many files in it, with ball spinning for more than 30 seconds before listing folder contents depending on how many files the folder has.
But accessing the same Linkstation from Windows XP is fast. Even Windows XP inside OSX (using Parallels) is fast.
Since the same machine but inside Parallels is fast seems not a network issue to me. Maybe some setting in OSX could help, or some setting in smb.conf inside the Linkstation (I can change it by using Openlink, a non official firmware).
Also, AFP folder browsing is fast, but not using it because the one included with the Linkstation has filename length limitations to be compatible with OS Classic.
Anyone had a similar problem accesing a SMB/CIFS share?
Thanks.

There was a suggestion out here recently to disable Bonjour's Name Resolution...but connecting to the remote drive by IP address, instead of name.
Like so:
Connect by IP address, and it should bypass Bonjour name resolution. Hit command-K, and in the window that pops up type
afp://<ip-address>
where <ip-address> is the IP of the host you want to connect to. For example, if the IP address of the Aiport basestation hosting the drive is 10.0.0.1, you would type:
afp://10.0.0.1
This was a long fix for a slightly different problem http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=877397&tstart=0
Worth a try.
Aso consider if thisis a large folder full of pictures - mac seems to think it needs to generate thumbnails of all those image files...think of the network and CPU time needed for that.

Issue with migration of Public folders from Exchange 2010 to Exchange Online.

We are trying to migratie the Public folders structure of one of our clients and are running in an error during migration.

Hi,
There are a lot of corrupted items. You can try raising the baditemlimit to 999 to workaround this issue
Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Set-PublicFolderMigrationRequest -baditemlimit 100
To resumed the PublicFolderMigrationRequest
Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Resume-PublicFolderMigrationRequest

Problem With the Triggers while migrating Forms from 5 to 6i

When I open the version 5 fmb file in Forms 6i, some of the triggers in the form level triggers and also in data block, are having red arrow marked on them and they seem to have no code in them. So when i compile the form then those triggers are shown as errors and when I close those triggers, they are deleting.
The error looks like this..
Error 103 at line 2, column 1
Encountered the symbol "END" when expecting one of the following:
begin case declare end exception exit for goto if loop mod null pragma raise
return select update while with <an identifier>
<a double-quoted delimited-identifier> <a bind variable> <<
close current delete fetch lock insert open rollback
savepoint set sql commit <a single-quoted SQL string>
And finally the form will compile with out any errors. But when I run the form getting error again saying,
FRM 10221: Cannot read file

Hi,
the forms migration assistant tells you about v2 styles triggers (even if they are not migrated ; ) )
take a look at :
[url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/doc.1111/e10394/migtool.htm#i100490]Using the Oracle Forms Migration Assistant
Raises a warning in the Form module's log if V2-style triggers are found.
There is also a point you must look at.
In a former project I made a migration from forms 4.5 to 10g and there was foms-level triggers applied at let say the block level or item level (I cant remember exactly) and this is not permitted anymore in 10g.
Again the forms migration assistant Provides warnings about triggers defined at incorrect levels.
Hope this helps

Jean-Yves

Migrating forms to 11g - problems with absolete built-ins

Sorry if it's the wrong section, but nerves are kicking in and I'm lost.
I've been trying to migrate an old, probably 8i database with its tools and forms into 11g. All software seems to run fine, but when I try to run the forms I either get "this form was made using an old forms builder" error, or worse - some enigmatic FRM and ORA (exception 6508) errors apparently connected to lack of some procedure called in the form triggers.
Now you'd probably say "just recompile those forms". But I can't - I get tons of compilation errors, mostly comming in from absolete built-ins or trying to select from system views. That happens when trying to recompile libraries referenced by those forms, which is probably why i get those procedure lacking errors.
Since the ammount and nature of those overwhelmed me I tried using Forms Migration Assistant...talk about betting on the wrong horse. First I had to change the 'start in' property of the assitants shortcut to where i stored the forms/libraries or else it kept throwing the libs out of said forms. Then I got a bundle of pld files and the most important libraries unchanged, with no mention of any problem in the assistants log. Needless to say my forms still get those procedure lack errors.
I'm pretty sure I can somehow handle correcting the forms if the libraries were ok, but I just can't cope with those problems:
-what to do about system view selects in triggers and library procedures? The compiler just treats them as unknown identifiers. I had the same problem elsewhere and it was about privileges, but this time I can't identify the user from whom those privs are read (in fact, isn't it whoever is using the form at the time?) so far I've noticed it try to use dba_users and dba_roles
-what to do to correct a library (which can have dependencies on other libraries) to be compatible or at least compile'able with the new Forms Builder without spending a year on it all?
I've tried applying changes mentionned in the assistants log (like changing RUN_PRODUCT calls to RP2RRO.RP2RRO_RUN_PRODUCT), but it didn't do any good

Well for me the forms were ok to open with 11g, just had to correct differences and recompile to run.
That there script is a ton of help!..well you forgot to mention the Output_File parameter, but I could find that myself now that I knew what to look at. Now if I could also set it not to produce .err files when everything went fine and to set the output names so that the old compiled forms get overwritten..
the SRW.* calls turned out to be things used in Reports, so it was hopeless to compile in forms..but also not needed
as for ENABLE_ITEM and DISABLE_ITEM I found these to use as their definitions in a library, that proved sufficient.
procedure enable_item
( p_menuName in varchar2
, p_menuItemName in varchar2
) is
v_menuItem menuitem;
begin
v_menuItem := find_menu_item(p_menuName||'.'||
p_menuItemName);
if (not id_null(v_menuItem))
and (get_menu_item_property(v_menuItem,visible) = 'TRUE')
then
set_menu_item_property(v_menuItem, enabled, property_true);
end if;
end;
procedure disable_item
( p_menuName in varchar2
, p_menuItemName in varchar2
) is
v_menuItem menuitem;
begin
v_menuItem := find_menu_item(p_menuName||'.'||
p_menuItemName);
if (not id_null(v_menuItem))
and (get_menu_item_property(v_menuItem,visible) = 'TRUE')
then
set_menu_item_property(v_menuItem, enabled, property_false);
end if;
end;Some forms still playing with me, but the compilation issues there don't seem to be connected with this topic..and now I got issues with reports >.< but that requires a topic elsewhere. Thanks all!

Migrate KM folders with properties

Hello
I´m migrating my KM folders from one environment to another. I´ve been able to move my folders, my documents, all the KM properties. Everything BUT the KM Folder properties.
Properties like tbp on, approvals workflows or permissions haven´t move.
Any idea on how to do it?
Regards
Fernando

Hi
That´s what I initially did, this has been great to move all the modifications done in Layout Set and some other stuff, but this does not migrates my KM folders properties.
I´ve set on the time based publishing and the approval process in Content Management-Explorer, here I open the folder properties and change configuration. This is the configuration that has not been migrated.
Is there anything special I have to perform in ICE for it?
Regards
Fernando

Can I use Oracle Forms Services 11g with Database 9.2.0.8.0?

Hi everyone.
My department is evaluating development tools in order to build new web applications, and also possibly to migrate current applications buit with Oracle Forms 6.0.5.34.0. Our database is Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit.
We have read that the newest Oracle Forms version is Oracle Forms Services 11g. Is Oracle Forms Services 11g compatible with Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit? or would we have to migrate our RDBMS to Oracle 11g?
If our database is compatible, what would we need to develop and deploy applications with Oracle Forms Services 11g?
Many thanks in advance.

Wheter it's compatible or not: Database 9.2.0.8 is in sustaining support which means you won't get patches for it. So even if it is compatible I'd opt to upgrade to a newer version, as I wouldn't feel comfortable having a not-supported product out in production.
Have a look at the certification matrix for supported configurations
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/fmw-11gr1certmatrix.xls
As for the requirements; most things can be found on the forms homepage on OTN:

or at the documentation:

Deploy Forms and Reports with Load Balancing

I am trying to determine what we need to install here. I have read OracleAS, Web Cache, Application Server, and
Forms documents and have no answer still.
We are currently run 9iAS with Forms and Reports 6i only.
I did not do any of those installs. We are migrating to
Forms and Reports 10g. I need to setup an OracleAS 10g
Forms and Reports application server with the ability to
do Load Balancing over 2 windows Web servers to handle
4,000+ users. The application database will be on its own
Windows server.
Do I need to install the Infastructure, BI, and Web cache?
Or just Oracle 10g Application Server option? Or other?
Do I need to install it on both web servers and do
something like clustering? Do I need to install Web
cache? I just took the 10g AS class and basically did not learn anything about deploying Forms and Reports.
Can anyone give me a place to find the things I need to
install and setup?
Thanks.
Kim

I am a DBA and have not done an iAS or AS installation
before but am now required to learn it. We will be using
SSL and no load balancing hardware. We setup for other
customer sites and setting Windows servers in the past.
We have not done load balancing before.
I am just confused with all the 10gAS options there are to
install to just run 10g Forms and Reports and setup
OracleAS 10g with the load balancing features.
So I just need to install OracleAS Forms and Reports
Server if I am just installing Forms and Reports with SSL.
But if for Load Balancing Oracle 10g I need to cluster
just Reports 10g? I thought I would need OracleAS10g
installed on my two Windows servers and somehow cluster
or let the two know they are the same web page handling
the incoming requests? I do know about Apache redirct. Is
that an Apache feature and is it covered in an Oracle
documentation? They did not cover it in class either.

Forms 11 integration with ADF 11g Example

Hi,
i found the nice screencast Screencast, it shows the interaction Forms 11 and ADF 11...
Now my question:
Is there some more information / tutorials for building Forms 11-Applications which interacts with ADF-11?
kind regards
Martin

Hi Martin, I probably need to set the expectations in that we will look to put together some samples/demos/howtos on integrating Forms and ADT graphs but thats something for the next 6 months (and you probably need something yesterday).
In terms of calling ADF from Forms and visa versa, since both are launched from URLs so you can simply call something like web.show_document('ADF URL'). However, I think we really need to look deeper since there are different ways of integrating Forms and Java applications. Maybe what you really want to do is something like
http://groundside.com/blog/GrantRonald.php?title=oracle_forms_and_google_charts&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
I'm also interested in the business motivation - why do you want to migrate Forms to ADF - if its simply so you can leverage features like charting - maybe the above example could help.

Using Forms 9i/10g with Websphere Application Server

Hi all,
We intend to migrate from Forms 6i to Forms 9i/10g. Our enterprise does not support the use of Oracle Application Server. I would therefore like to know if it is possible to use Forms 9i/10g with Websphere.
Your reply will be highly appreciated.
Best regards

Dear Frank Nimphius,
Hope You will be fine.
Is there any way we can use Oracle Application Server (Middle Tier) or 10g AS Integration Adaptors or any thing on Middle Tier except Transparent Gateways to access SQL Server using Oracle Forms and Reports 10g.
Looking Forward.
