OC4J service startup & running form from forms builder

Hello everybody,
I have installed Oracle 9i database and Oracle 9i DS on my personal Computer. (O.S. is Windows XP) . Now if I want to run any form from Forms builder I have to everytime start the OC4J service, from oracle-home\j2ee\oracle9i DS\startinst.bat
How to eliminate this? Is there any way to automate this procedure? so that everytime when I open the forms builder, it will automatically start this service or run this bat file.
Or any other way to overcome this prob?
regards
achchani

Hi,
unfortunately the answer is no. If you search the Internet you may find lik of how to make bat execution a Windows Service

Unable to run the form from Form Builder 10g

HI,
I am having a problem with running a form with form builder 10g.
I have create a form with some text boxes to display values in a table.
When i compile and run the form it does not run The error shown is
HTTP 403(Forbidden) You are not authorised to view this page.
The Link used for the above is:
http://127.0.0.1:1740/sWuCqhMKUT1btA1N5cXLCRshkJzmgKRIlCEUFd9RL520LVq0
The port number 1740 changes everytime. I dont know why.
I have started the OC4J instance before starting the Form Builder.
I have made the changes to the runtime preferences in the form builder.
http://localhost:8889/forms/frmservlet
But it doesn't work when i try to run the form from Form Builder.
ie Program-->Run Form
The form works properly when using the 'Run a form on the Web Utility' provided with Developer Suite.
Can anyone please suggest a solution. I have searched the forum but didnot find a solution.
Thanks
V.S.

One of our DBAs has installed the software.
It was a default installation, I believe, as no configuration was done during the installation except for increasing the virtual memory size.
Post installation we changed the tnsnames.ora file and the sqlnet.ora file.
Do i need to configure something ?
Thanks,
V.S.

Browser blank when running a form from forms builder ??

Hi,
I am trying to run a form from forms builder.
I have a form , compiles, and when I run the form nothing comes up in my browser.
my browser is completely blank.
I am running everything on my local machine.
the steps I took.
- downloaded jinit.exe, installed it.
- started the OC4j
- restarted my browser
- then connect to my DB from forms builder - connects fine
- Run the form
but nothing is coming up when i run my form.
I even restarted my machine and still nothing.
What am I missing ??
Thanks,

This is a fairly common question. If you have the Jnit installed and OC4J running, then I would suggest you add the directory where your FMX is located to the FORMS_PATH in the 'DEFAULT.ENV' file located in the %DEVSUITE_HOME%/forms/server directory. The FORMS_PATH variable defines the SEARCH Path for Forms Applications so Forms can find your .FMX and .PLX files.
You could also modify the URL and specify the Form='your_form_name.fmx', but I prefer adding the directory to the FORMS_PATH so I don't have to add FORMS="" for each different form I'm working on.
Hope this helps,

Run form from form builder

Hi,
I am using Form 6i and copied Forms60Libraries in my local machine. I am developing form which will be registered with oracle apps. Now I want to run this form locally instead of uploading into server everytime while testing which I don't have access depending on other for this move.
So, Please guide me to run this form from Form Builder locally if there is a way.
Thanks in advance.

As Alex suggested, you will need local copies of all the required Apps resource files (*.pll, *.plx, etc). Running an Apps form from the Forms Builder does not require any special setup on your workstation beyond this. However, even with all the required resource files you will run into errors each time your form calls one of the standard apps built-ins. It has been a while since I've worked with Apps, but I was able to get around the calls to these built-ins by checking if the Form was running on the web or client/server and only calling the Apps built-in if running on the web. It was a bit of a pain to setup, but it was worth being able to test my form localling from the Forms Builder rather than upload the form to the server in order to test the runtime. Here is how I accomplished this. In each trigger that calls an Apps built-in (eg: APP_STANDARD.Event) do the following. Typically, I only needed to add the following code the Form level triggers, but it depended on each form.
/* Example When-New-Form-Instance */
DECLARE
   UI_type   VARCHAR2(15) := Get_Application_Property(USER_INTERFACE);
BEGIN
   IF ( UI_type = 'WEB' ) THEN
      -- Execute Apps built-ins...
      APP_STANDARD.EVENT('WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE');
   END IF;
   -- Perform the rest of your processing here
END;Hope this helps,
Craig B-)

Running form from Forms Builder with IE

Forms 11.1.1.4, IE 8, Windows 7 64-bit.
1. Running form from Forms Builder with IE results in Page cannot be displayed. My Java console doesn't even appear so it's not getting to the servlet part.
2. Running same form stand-alone in IE works fine. The URLs are identical (I've cut/pasted them)
3. Running same form from Forms Builder with Firefox works fine. The only change I made was to the runtime preference for the browser location.
Seems like this has to be something to do with the browser configuration that only occurs from Forms Builder. What could it be?

I'm not sure about the specifics of your configuration but I suspect the answer is in formsweb.cfg (and the associated .env file).
I think that generally the configuration that runs for formbuilder is the "default" whereas you could be specifying a different
one on the url not going through formbuilder. (but if you're using em then it's really hard to know what's going on since it seems
to not write changes back to the config and env files until it is stopped. This caused me many days of confusion until I figured it out and
that's why I would highly advise never using it to modify .config or env settings.)
check what jre is installed in ie (tools, manage addons, there is on my machine:
java 2 plugin ssv helper and JQSIEStartDetectorImpl browser helper object.
Not sure which one or both is necessary.
Have your url be a trusted site, unblock it from popup blockage, and most of all stare at your formsweb.cfg default section. It would help
if you specified what was in the url. do you have config=X in there?

but i hav report in e:\ then why its getting?

Hi,
I suggest you not to use the "E:\" directory letter, but the REPORTS_PATH instead.

from the Online Help


On Windows, edit environment variables through the Registry Editor (Start > Run > Regedit).


On UNIX, edit environment variables by revising and running the shell script that defines the initial default values (reports.sh). If you do this, be sure to keep a backup of the original, unaltered reports.sh file.

my forms are running ok but now i need to run report. so what i have done is that i have created a report object in form and following are enteries present in it at the moment.
Name REPORT7

i have installed report server with following command
rwserver -install 9irep
i have changed entry in rwservlet.properties like
SINGLESIGNON=NO and i have removed the following entire block of 9irep.conf, which i have read from some documentation

i get the following error message when i run my form
frm-41214 Unable to run report
and then next message is
frm-41217 unable to get report job status
i debugged the report id and it is
9irep_0
returned by Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id);
When I checked the Report Queue Manager
it is showing status like
(9irep)Terminated with error
and detail it shows is
Unable to connect to the specified database.
Now I am wondering what to do next.
any suggestions???????

Hello,
From your description, it seems like the report is faling due to a database authentication problem. When you run your report from Forms, Forms internally passes the its database connection information to Reports automatically. So ensure that you are connected to a valid database in Forms, before the report is called.
Please verify whether a simple report which does not require a database connection, for example, a report containing only a boilerplate text object, is running correctly. Also, in the trigger code that you have specified, you should add the following:
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(Report_Id, REPORT_DESTYPE, CACHE);
so that the report output gets generated to the server cache, and can be retrieved using rwservlet/getjobid.
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???

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.
