Error while generating form 16 in portal - Screen output without connection

Dear Gurus,
We are facing error while generating form 16 through portal and getting the below error in portal.
Screen output without connection to user. error key: RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE
When we checked for dumps in R/3 the following dump is coming:
DYNPRO_SEND_IN_BACKGROUND with error message :
Message class : FPRUNX
Message number: 102: No job started.
Then we tried to execute the form 16 through R/3 itself using tcode PC00_M40_F16 after putting in the relevant values in the selection screen and then press on PRINT FORM button, but surprisingly the system logs out without giving any error or dump.
We tried doing it repeatedly and once in these attempts we got an error saying Initialization of font server module failed.
We are not getting clue as to why this is happening. <<Text removed>>

Dear,
This might be the problem of Adobe Acrobat Reader. what is the version of Adobe you are using ?? If it 9.0, then uninstall it and reinstall 8.0 and then check .
Could you please check your installed SAPGUI component? If component 'Engineering Client Viewer' is installed, please uninstall
it. And try to call same transaction again.

Changing description of a field in shopping cart form in SRM Portal

Hi,
We have a requirement to change the description/adding a note to one of the fields in Shopping cart creation form in the portal. In the SHOP page, when we click on describe requirement we have an option to choose the product type as Goods or Services in the ADD ITEMS section. Here we would like to add a note for the radio button GOODS.
I tried to check the source and undertand that it uses the template - bbpsc01/99/saplbbp_sc_ui_its_1000.html
I'm not sure where I can view this HTML file and also not sure how I can modify this HTML page.
Please give some pointers regarding the same.
Thanks,
Lakshmi

Hi,
I could see the HTML code in SE80 -> Internet service -> BBPSC01 -> HTML Template -SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS -> Screen 230.
Can I directly modify the code of this particular screen? Is there any standard procedure that need to be followed to modify the HTML Template?
Please clarify as soon as possible.
Note: I have not worked on Internet services before.
Thanks,

8.1 equivalent of portlet:form event=bea.portal.framework.internal.refresh

I've got a portlet with an edit JSP that allows the user to set some portlet settings. The edit JSP uses a form defined with the tag <portlet:form event="bea.portal.framework.internal.refresh" >. This in essence allowed the edit JSP to submit the form to itself, so it could then process (store) the settings.
This tag is no longer supported in 8.1. I haven't been able to find what the equivalent is. Am I going to be able to do the same thing, or am I going to have to rewrite the Edit piece as a page flow?

I've already tried that and it's not working in my current portal.
The other things I've tried are <render:postBackUrl/> and <render:windowUrl> for the form action, and they weren't working, either. But since then I've discovered that in a new vanilla portal installation, the <render:postBackUrl/> action works fine (I assume the controller would, too, but I didn't try it).
It seems I now have a different problem to work through to figure out why <render:postBackUrl/> works in a new installation, but not in my current one. The same goes for the controller.

Migrating forms 2000 to forms 6i

Hi,
does anyone of you tried to migrate forms 2000 to 6i. everytime I try that, I am getting an error - "ifbld60.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.
You will need to restart the program." (rigt after I open the file and connect to the database). I cannot proceed.
any solutions?
thanks,
san

There was a bug raised on this 3490850 where somone had the same symptoms but it was closed without action because the database version was not supported with that version of Forms. Now I am not sure if this is the same problem (i'm not sure if should be - so long as you are using the latest patch to 6i Forms which was supported against up to the 10g database) but its an issue of using an unsupported version of Oracle Forms.
Sorry I can't be more help than that

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.

Generate or import xml form content into portal

Hi, we have a content repository type "fsdb" in wich we have created a xml form to publish content.
Now we need to develope a program or process that read information from a database and generate the xml content in the repository,
How can we generate the xml form content?
I have tried coping and existing element of the repository from the file system and changing the data but something more is needed, I think that is necesary to update the database.
Any suggestion is welcomed.
Thanks in advanced.
Regards.

Hi,
I differred my theme, cause I also had to use and transport the xml-forms into another portal. For this reason I have to use xml-forms. I've found out how to modify the the content/text of an subscription-mail.
Is there any way to define different layouts for subscription-mails? (Maybe depending on the folder.)
Is there any way to send an e-Mail to a specified address (including the content) when saving the xml-form?

Troubles using ifcmp60 to migrate forms 4.5 to 6

I have used this:
for %f in (*.fmb) do ifcmp60 build=yes upgrade_plsql=yes upgrade=yes module=%f userid=tes/tes@instance
The command alter FMB original file, and create FMX file but it doesn't change code varchar2 instead char. Also create error file, inside this file show no error.
I want to know if it's correct because documentation show that this kind of code must change in automatic way when we run in batch mode.

hi
In order to migrate forms from 4.5 to 10g,
you need to compile the forms in 6i first and then upgrade them directly to 10g.
Forms 4.5 is client based while anything after Forms 6 is server based.
This is an important migration and close attention should
be paid to maintaining the look and functionality of the forms during migration.
Many features have been decremented and chances are that
the forms will require modification in order to get them compiled. sarah

Migrating Oracle 9i As Portal??

Can I migrate Oracle 9i AS Portal from a computer to an another computer with hostname and domain differents?
thanks
null

Yes, you can migrate the applications, content areas and pages (basically anything you build) with 9iAS Portal from one machine to another, provided that both machines are at the SAME version of Portal..
For instance, both machines should be at release 3.0.8.9.8, for example. But in the current versions of Oracle9iAS Portal, you cannot import/export applications between DIFFERENT versions of 9iAS Portal i.e. 3.0.8 vs. 3.0.9, for instance.
There is an overview white paper that describes this import/export process at: http://technet.oracle.com/products/iportal/pdf/export_import.pdf

Harry

Assuming you're talking about Solaris SPARC you can transport a complete database:

Technical Document (Exact Procedures) To Migrate Forms/Reports 9i to 10g

Hi;
Where can i find the Technical Document (Exact Procedures) To Migrate Forms/Reports 9i to 10g?

This seems to be a common point of confusion. The "FMw Upgrade Assistant" is a utility which helps you to upgrade the entire Application Server installation to a newer version (e.g. 11.1.x). This has nothing to do with your Forms (fmb, mmb, pll, etc) or Reports (rep, rdf, etc) applications. Generally speaking, I would say that using the UA is not necessary and likely should not be used in most cases. Cases where it should be used might include a situation where your previous version has been significantly customized and you don't know how or don't want to make the same customization in the new environment manually. Whether you are talking about a new product (Oracle or not) or even a new OS, generally your best bet is to start with a clean, new installation. Attempting to upgrade an existing version always comes with problems. Just one man's opinion ;-)
As for your Forms application(s), there is a Forms Migration Assistant (FMA), explained in the Forms Upgrade Guide:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/doc.11120/e24478/toc.htm
That said, just like using UA, it is always better to take the extra time and not rely on such tools if they can be avoided. In most cases, the FMA will not be needed. This is especially true if your application is coming from version 10. For older versions, using FMA might be beneficial.
So, to the point, in order to move a Forms application (fmb, mmb, pll) from version 10 to 11 is as simply as recompiling your modules using the v11 compiler. That's it ;-)

Integrating apex form with oracle portal

Afternoon friends,
I have got a senario like integrating apex form with oracle portal.I dont have any idea on oracle portals.so please let me know the basic steps on how to go ahead to integrate apex forms with oracle portal and for that what i need to have apart with my database and apex.

Hello
Couldn't see my previous post... so here it is again
We have integrated Apex into Oracle Portal
Here's how we did it.
In the portal page, we have created an Element region with the following code:
<script language="Javascript">
   
</script>
<p><iframe width="100%" height="500" frameborder="0" onload="javascript: changeIframeHeight();" src="/pls/apex/f?p=115:10" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" name="apexIframe" id="apexIframe"></iframe></p>You just have to make sure that the name and id of the iFrame and the elementId in the javascript are the same.
And change the SRC so that it point you application.
Hope that helped you.

Migrating Forms 5 toForms 10g (without forms 6i) ...

Dear all,
I like to migrate Form 5 to Form 10g. I heard about the FMA(Forms Migration Assistance)... where i can use it for multiple forms...???
Also, we had used RUN_PRODUCT in many forms (to call various reports)... So how to make it available in 10g ???
Finally, we ahd also called many ProC's in forms 5.0 ... so how to deal with calling "ProC" while Migrating Forms 5 to Forms 10g ...
Thanks ...

It's not recommended to migrate from Forms 5 to 10g directly, the internal structure is completely different, you need to migrate to 6i first where you'll do all the correction needed and than migration to 10g will be very smooth.
check the [Forms Upgrade Center|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html] for more information and white papers about migrating Forms.
