Hi Ruth, I'm guess it was probably me who presented to you (hope it was useful!!).
Ok - For the sake of building, testing and running the Developer Suite 10g contains everything you need. This will allow you do everything you need to do (as far as Forms is concerned) and mirrors the app server. This should allow you to iron out most of the issues before you deploy on the app server.
Using the Developer Suite once you are happy that the Forms application works as you require, you can deployon the app server for testing of any integrated features (such as if you are integrating with SSO).
But if you are "upgrade process from Oracle 6 to 10g for a small sample of our forms and reports to find out what problems we may encounter" the the Developer Suite 10g and an appropriate database is all you need at this stage.

When run report from form(6i) on the web,error FRM-921000

While I was trying to run report from form (6i)on the web,it will give me this error
message FRM-921000 and hang.
But when I try to call form using form,I do
not have the problem.
May I know ehat is the cause?
Anybody encounter this before?
Thanks

I am running Forms 6i on the web and attempting to call me report via RUN_REPORT_OBJECT. I am getting the same error as Jenny FRM-92100. I need to pass a parameter list so I don't think I can use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. Any ideas???
Thanks,
Jenny N.

Dear Jenny,
I am running reports from Forms 6i on the WEB. I did not encounter your problem. Nevertheless I would like to share the following with you.
RUN_PRODUCT doesn't work for calling reports ON THE WEB. Instead using RUN_PRODUCT do the following:
1. Install Oracle Reports Server
2. For WEB calls of reports use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
3. Learn how to pass parameters to the reports. It is a litlle bit strange, but it is explaint excellent in the documentation to the Reports Server.
I hope this will help you.

How do I keep forms opened on the web - if they close themselves at times

How do I keep forms opened on the web - if they close themselves??

Hi,
When you have completed design your form on design tab, you may open form to filling out and submit. At this time, if you don’t change your form, it will keep the open state. if you change or edit your form, it will showing a warning dialog to let you know form will be changed to closed, and remind you to open it again.
Thanks,
Guanshuai

Call Oracle Help for Java in Oracle forms running in the web

Hi, everyone,
We are developing a web-enabled Oracle database application
system. Oracle suggested us to use Oracle Help for Java(OHJ) to
create an online help system for the web environment. We
successfully created a OHJ program which can be independently.
But we still have no idea how to call this OHJ program from the
forms running in the web environment.
Could anyone help us out?
Thanks.

I would like to know if anyone has been able to do this too. Could someone respond if they have successfully gotten this to work?
Thanks!!

Can you put Forms 6 on the web without OAS?

Do you have to use the Oracle Application Server if you want to put Forms 6 applications on the web?
Is it possible to configure webforms system without using OAS?
We use Microsoft IIS webserver and plan to use the CGI-BIN interface to put oracle reports on the web.
Thanks.

Bob,
I have been watching this discussion group now for some time and I have noticed that you are answering a lot of questions about Oracle Developer, mostly correctly.
However, your experiences with Netscape and Jinitiator seem a little unfortunate, you (and others) may find the following information useful
The problem you have referred to where the form does not appear was a known problem both with Jinitiator 1.1.5.21.1 and the original shipment of forms 6.0.5.29.1. This problem is usually fixed (depending on what was the root of your problem) by upgrading past patch 3 of ODS6 and upto Jinitiator 1.1.7.18.
There are other reasons that the form may not appear but these are usually flagged by an FRM-99999 error. Not overly helpful I understand, but drilling in on the java console window that pops up will usually point out the area of the problem. We realise that this is not necessarily as helpful as it could be and we will be shortly posting a document (to the tune of 121 pages) where a lot of the FRM-99999 errors are explained and a method for troubleshooting is outlined.
The following configurations can be used for running ODS
Netscape 4 + Jinit
IE 4/5 + Jinit
IE5 incl Patch 1 Native
Appletviewer
In answer to the question from Richard Chadd you can happily run ODS6 without OAS, as Bob correctly points out, if you don't want to use the cartridge.
The cartridge is needed if you want to deploy your Forms Server application across multiple machines, the reason for this is that the cartridge (in v6) is the only method for accessing a variable called LEASTLOADEDHOST, this variable is used to indicate to the Metrics Server (the element inside ODS that manages the connections on each machine) the number of concurrent connections on each machine.
If you are happy running on one machine (from a user count and hardware point of view) then you will not need to do load balancing and therefore will not need to use OAS.
With the latest release of Oracle Forms Server release 6i (note the name change) you will never need OAS, even if you want to load balance. We will be supplying a CGI executable that provides the same (and more) functionality as the OAS cartridge, thus you will be able to deploy your OFS applications to multiple machines and still stick with your favourite web server.
The other features we have added in 6i are
- Smart Server Install
- SSL
- HTTP
- OEM Integration
For full details you should download the product details from Technet, but in short the smart server install should resolve a lot of the problems that we are seeing on this (and other) discussion lists. It basically asks a series of questions and (based on your answers) chooses to install and set up it's own lightweight listener (taken from WebDB) and creates the base html files, the virtual directory mappings etc etc.
The HTTP is the same as was in 6.0 but is now a supported feature as opposed to being a beta feature, you may now optionally choose to switch on SSL for that communication as well.
The OEM integration refers to Oracle Enterprise Manager, you may now install an agent on an OFS box and the agent will report to OEM that OFS is installed and will thus allow you to start and stop forms listeners, dynamically turn on logging, kill users etc etc all remotely.
Sorry if this seems like a marketing message, but I thought you might like a heads up on what is now available.
I also thought that you might like to know that we in Product Management spend a large amount of time watching discussion groups and newsgroups.
If you are looking to discuss OFS with other like minded users then there are also several other places that Product Management may be seen, these are comp.databases.oracle.tools and the ODTUG mailing list.
Obviously the newsgroups are free, but ODTUG requires you to purchase a membership.

Thanks in advance.
Elpis

Hi,

U can find this field from context node attribute.

Create/Edit Word documents from Form 6 in the web

How can I create/edit Microsoft Word documents from a form running under IAS.
In client/server I can do it using OLE2.

On the Web the OLE2 option would still work if your Forms server is on a windows machine with word on it. The files will be created on the server and you can get them to the client with the web.show_document built-in.
If you want to create them on the client machine directly you need a Java bean that will activate the COM interface.

View html page in forms 6i on the web

Hi to all
I want to view a html page in my form on the web, i try to use web.show_ocument, but it opens a page in another window. I'm working with oracle 9ias, and i can't use OLE and OCX. How can i open an html page in a frame (and not in onother window)?
Plz HELP!!
Thanks in advance

Hi,
if starting Forms in a HTML frame you can launch a HTML page to show in the same view. If e.g teh frame name for the HTML contect to show is "details" then you can do
web.show_document("<URL>",'details');
There also exists the IceBrowser class that knows how to render HTML pages. You ca add this in a PJC or as a Java Bean to Forms.

Is there a reference forms application in the web?

Hi,
at the moment we have an forms4.5 and report2.5
application. We have heard a little bit about OAS
and Forms in the web.
In order to decide which way we will go in future,
we are looking for a reference in the web. IS there
already a forms application in web? Can I have a
look at it? What about the experiences? Is this a
"passable" way?
What about the prognosis of the future of OAS and
forms in the web?
Are there any recommendations?
It would be great to receive some answers.
Best regards,
Christine Volkwein

Yes.
I suppose you want to know where, as well.
Look over at the left column of the page you are on now. See the "Tutorials" entry? That's a link. Click on it. It takes you to a whole page full of tutorials. Click on "Java Tutorial". That takes you to another whole page of tutorials. One of them is about networking.

Open a new form based on the selection from the drop down list

Good Morning Everyone,
Can any one please advise how I can start to build the form that has a drop down list(DDL) to list other forms so the user can select one from the selection of that DDL to open a new form.
e.g A form in workspace ES3 with drop down list to list 3 forms: form1, form2, form3. When user select form1 from the DDL, then it will kick off the render servic to launch form1 in workspace ES3.
Thanks in advance,
HD

Hi,
I'm not surea about the data structure...Are there two ClassNodes, one for "VALVES" and one for "BOLTS"??
and for scripting it is no good idea if the names of the attributes are value, don't know if this is your naming...
but to access a node of the DATA view -->
//var selection --> you have assigned "VALVES"
var onodeCN = xfa.resolveNodes("xfa.record.Classification.ClassNode[*].value");
// get the node with the valves -->
 for (var i = 0; i < onodeCN.length ; i++) {
 if ( onodeCN.item(i).value == selection ) {
 //get the Leaves of Node VALVES
 var onodeVALS = xfa.resolveNodes("xfa.record.Classification.ClassNode[+i+].ClassLeaf[*].value");
 for (var j = 0; j < onodeVALS.length ; j++) {
 // insert values of Leave to 2nd drop down
 XXX.addItem(onodeVALS.item(j).value, onodeVALS.item(j).value);
??works??

1)Please tell me how to deploy them on the web and what are the various setting to be done.
2)Can anyone tell me where is the complete documentation available on deployment of forms ovwer the web and the settings to be done??

Would you like me to clean your house and do your laundry, too? :-)
Start by reading the manuals and white papers on OTN. Then, if you have SPECIFIC questions on how to do something, this is the place to ask.

PETITION: This is what I would like to see in a new firmware upgrade for the MTP ZEN TO

FIXES:
-Ensures correct playback on the player of Zencast audio content that has been transferred using Zencast organiser. Remaining time is displayed correctly, and rewind / fast-forward functions can be used
- Allows users to transfer tracks between folders on the player when using a program such as Creative Mediasource [THIS IS NEEDED FOR ALL MTP PLAYERS]
- Allows charging via USB when the player is not being used by a program or is low on battery [THIS FEATURE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY MTP UPGRADE]
ENHANCEMENTS / ADDITIONAL FEAUTRES [I HAVE LISTED THESE BY MY PERSONAL ORDER OF PREFERENCE]:
) Allows the playback of Audible content types ,2,3,4 on the player, via a plug-in in Audible Manager
2) Adds bookmarking feature to the player
3) Adds SmartVolume EQ feature to the player
4) Adds DJ menu to the player
5) Allows user to partition a section of the player for data transfer
6) Allows user to synchronise tasks from Outlook to the player
7) Allows TXT files/ Ebooks to be stored/ viewed on the player
8) Adds BassBoost EQ feature to the player
PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION TO URGE CREATIVE TO INTRODUCE AT LEAST SOME OF THESE FIXES / FEATURES IN A FIRMWARE UPGRADE FOR THE MTP ZEN TOUCH - also please feel free to add other suggestions that would improve the functionality of the Zen Touch
