Modifying form on unix server using Form Builder installed on Windows deskt

We are using Oracle Applications hosed on unix servers. There is a custom form in XXX_TOP/forms/US folder that I need to modify. My Windows desktop has Forms Builder 10g installed. I ftpied fmb file over from unix server to my Windows desktop and tried opening it. I get an error FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects: APPSTAND, etc etc. Obviously I am not doing it right. What is the correct way of modifying a form file sitting on unix server, using Forms Builder installed on Windows desktop? Do I need to copy all dependant objects to Windows desktop along with fmb file? Thank you in advance.

You will also need all of the .plb and .fmb found in the AU_TOP/Resources, however, if you modify an Oracle provided Form you will loose all support from Oracle for that Form and anytime you apply an upgrade or patch, you will loose the changes if the upgrade/patch involves the modified form. There are only 2 approved ways to modify an Oracle supplied EBS form. First is by using the CUSTOM.PLL library and the second is by using Forms Personalization (FP). I strongly recommend you persue using the CUSTOM.pll or FP. If neither of these options will provide the functionality you need - CALL ORACLE SUPPORT before you modify any files.

Running oracle form builder 10g in windows 7 64 bit

i am working in windows 7 64 bit
oracle db 11g enterprise edition 11.2.0.10 64 bit
form builder 10.12.0.2 32 bit
my default browser is Google Chrome
i have java 6 standard edition 1.6.0_34
when i am trying to run any form this message appear " java (TM) is required to display some elements in this page"
what can i do to run those forms?

You can also refer to this OTN reference:
Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) Certification Matrix
Other comments:
1. I would not recommend using Forms 10.1.2.0 with Oracle DB 11.2.x. Patching Oracle Forms to 10.1.2.3 would be recommended. Using version Forms 11 would be better.
2. Attempting to use the Developer Tools on Windows 7 is not a great idea although it can be made to work. Developer Suite 10 is no longer supported and was never really intended for use on Win7. Again, patching to 10.1.2.3 is recommended and required if you plan to follow the Oracle instructions and certifications.
3. Installing the Forms Builder (Developer Suite) on Win7-64bit is not at all certified and was never supported.
4. Using Java 7 was not certified and therefore not supported for use with Forms 10.x
In general, Forms 10.1.2.x has been desupported. Customer using this version or older should be working on a migration plan for getting to the latest supported version which is 11.1.2.1.

6i Form Builder via x-windows or desktop?

What is the best development environment for 6i form builder/designer. Should it be used via x-windows to access the designer from the server or to to install and use the designer on the desktop (ie W2Kpro)? I understand there are x-window products and there is Developer 6i for MS windows. Does anybody have any pros/cons for either development environment or preferences?

Jim,
There is a special version for XP and not only do you need to install this special version but you also need to have a minimum of Patch 13 (from metalink). The special version can be downloaded from the otn using http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/forms/index.html
I would go use this special install first before doing any other thing.

Oracle9iDS Forms Builder install problem

Help! I am a student trying to install Oracle 9iDS Forms Developer for a class that I am taking. I am using installation disks provided by the school & get through the installation just fine per their instructions.
...but, when I run the Forms Builder, I see the splash screen, then the application immediately closes. No error messages.
I have tried starting the OC4J instance first (which starts up fine) but I still get the same results for Forms Builder.
I can open the Forms Compiler and Jdeveloper, no problems. I can connect to the school's database using PL/SQL.
I am running Windows XP Home Editions, Service Pack 2.
I'm a student of Oracle, but I have 24+ years of IT experience, and this one has me stumped. Thank you for your time and interest!

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it didn't work.
I used regedit to remove all references to Oracle, completely uninstalled & reinstalled the software...and I get the same results: Forms Builder sends up its splash screen, then quits.
Anyone have any other suggestions? Is there any other software known to be incompatible with Oracle? This is my home PC & there isn't too much interesting on it. I do have Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, plus Office & the usual batch of games for the kids.
Thanks!

How to execute a batch file on different remote server using TFS Build

I have a build server and have 2 web servers. I am deploying using TFS Builds. Now, I have a requirement to execute a batch file which is kept on these 2 web servers. i.e. C:\MyBatch\CreateMe.bat
After my build is successful, I need to execute this batch from the build server.
Note, I cannot make any shared folder.

Hi Sameer,
Thanks for your post.
What’s the version of your TFS?
How do you deploy solution using TFS Build, run MSBuild deploy command or using Release Management?
That C:\MyBatch\CreateMe.bat file stay on your two web server machines separately?
If you want execute this bat file on your two web server machines separately using build process template, you need configure your web server machine as build agent, then add the InvokeProcess activity in build process template to run the bat file on build
agent machine after build, please refer to Hari’s answer reply in this post:

Remotely connect to UNIX server using Xmanager

Hi,
I am using Xmanager (on a windows XP machine) to connect to the remote solaris 9 UNIX server (GUI), but I cannot see the login window.
a gray full screen window is appeared.
Are there any ports I have to enable on the firewall to allow this connection or I have to do some configuration for this on my Solaris 9 server??!!!

Hello,
Based on your description, it seems that you can connect to SQL Server instance remotely via VPN with SQL Server authentication. But it is failed when connect with Windows authentication.
The issue may occurs when the client cannot send the user credentials to DC via the VPN network. For example, the DC server had specify an IPSEC policy that restricts access from VPN.
Currently, it is hard to interpret without more detail information, please post the error message for further analysis. You can get more details about the failed connection by review the SQL Server error log.By default, the error log is located
at Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.n\MSSQL\LOG\ERRORLOG.

CHKDSK v6.2.9200.16384 dichotomy between Windows 12 Server x64 Standard Build 9200 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64

I seem to have discovered a dichotomy between the ability of CHKDSK v6.2.9200.16384 to detect and repair an external NTFS drive, when executed on Windows 2012 Server Standard Build 9200 x64 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64. There should be no difference in executing
the same application between these two systems.
Even though both are 64-bit systems, and both are up to date, and both are running the same version of chkdsk, chkdsk on Windows 12 Server was UNABLE to detect an NTFS filesystem on an external WD 1TB USB drive (detected fs as RAW), while chkdsk on Windows
8.1 Enterprise WAS ABLE to detect the NTFS filesystem on the same external drive, and was able to repair it.
So, what is the difference between these two systems? Why should the same version of
any application yield different results between these systems?
The only result on Windows 2012 Server was:
C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /x /f M:
The type of the file system is RAW.
CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives.
The result on Windows 8.1 Enterprise was:

Hi,
Please check if the Windows Server 2012 is still UNABLE to detect the external NTFS drive after attach the drive from the Windows 8.1 back to the Windows Server 2012.
A RAW filesystem simply means that it is a filesystem that is not recognized by Windows. The most common cause of external hard drives suddenly becoming RAW drives is if they are disconnected from a computer without using the “Safely Remove Hardware” option.
You can use the Dskprobe tool (Dskprobe.exe) to make repairs to check it the issue still exist on the Windows Server 2012.
What is this Raw File System

IIS Issue:when trying to download code from AWS S3 and deploy in IIS server using Power Shell script while Windows startup Default Application pool is not started.

Hi,
I am trying to launch Amazon EC2 windows server 2008 R2 instance using AWS Auto Scaling feature. I have used cusmized AMI in Autoscaling Launch configuration to launch an instance.I have placed Power Shell script in AMI.
The responsibility of script is to download code from AWS S3 and deploy in IIS server while windows startup first time.
When i check status, IIS is started succesfully. But default Application pool is not started.
To resolve this issue i have written one scheduled script. It helps to start the application pool if any application pool is in stopped state.
After this Application pool is started but i am not able to communicate with IIS server through browser.
Please help any one to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

FRM-92101 when trying to run forms from Forms Builder 10g

I have been struggling with this for a few days now and have tried multiple solutions around on these forums without any resolution yet!
Trying to run Forms Builder on a Windows XP machine with Oracle Development Suite 10.1.2.0.2 installed in its own ORACLE_HOME. The installation completes succesfully and I can start the OC4J instance.
1) When I open up Forms Builder and pull up the test.fmb form and try to run it, I get the following error:
FRM-92101: There was a failure in the Forms Server during startup. This could happen due to invalid configuration. Please look into the web-server log file for details.
On clicking 'Details' the following errors are displayed:
Java Exception:

2) The ORACLE_HOME\j2ee\DevSuite\application-deployments\forms\application.log includes the following errors:

Same issue here... Been trying to get this working since a week now. I tried all the solutions like memory heap and all but no luck.
One thing that I would like to know is that, in some threads the resolution was to recompile the INS_FORMS.MK file under /forms/lib32 but with my installation I don't have that "lib32" folder under /forms/ and I can not even find that file anywhere in my entire installation.
I am using 12.1.1 on Windows Server 2008.
Any help or guidelines is greatly appreciated.

Can I connect Oracle Forms Builder 10g to MS Access Database

Hi,
I have Oracle forms builder installed in my PC. I downloaded the Oracle Database Server from the oracle website and installed that as well. But due to the installation of Database server, my system has become very slow. In order to avoid this I wanted to know if I can connect the forms builder to MS Access Database.
Also, using ODBC I have created a database in my D:\ drive.
If using MS access as a database is possible, then kindly guide me how to proceed with it.
Thanks,
Shashank Senan

Hi Francois,
Thanks for your reply.
I have been working on Oracle forms from the past 1 year. I wanted to increase my expertise at the subject so thought I'll install it at my home and then try out developing and running a few small forms. So, in order to do this I downloaded and installed Developer Suite and database server. After installing the database server the system became very slow, as I mentioned earlier. Once I uninstalled the server, my system speed was back to normal. My system configuration is:
512 MB ram, Intel Pentium 4 2.66 Ghz processor, Windows XP service pack 3,1 CPU.
My requirement is very minimal. I just want a simple database where I can create tables, store data and connect form. If you have a have any other suggestion for my requirement then kindly help me in this regard.
In the meantime I'll act on your suggestion and try and install the XE server.
Thanks.
Shashank
