OID Resource Access Descriptors in Forms and Reports

Dear Colleage,
In my Forms application (Oracle Application Server 10g (version 9.04), I call Reports from certain Forms. I have have SSO activated in both Forms and Reports. I have also defined two RADs (Resource Access Descriptors) in the OID called RKMSPROD and RKMSTEST, i.e. for the production DB and test DB respectively. I successfuly configured my formsweb.cfg file with [RKMSPROD] and [RKMSTEST] and can access the the corresponding DB using the URL parameter, e.g. CONFIG=RKMSTEST.
Question 1
========
Is the DB connection associated with the RADs (i.e. RKMSPROD or RKMSTEST in my case) implicitly passed on to the Reports server when I start a report job via the built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT or do I have to explicitly add the SSOCONN=RKMSTEST parameter before using the built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT?
Question 2
========
If I have to set the SSOCONN, how can I find out programatically, which RAD is currently active? I am using the same forms to access the two different DBs.
Best regards,
Charles

Connect info is passed when making the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT call. No changes to Reports is needed. The only requirement is that both Forms and Reports have SSO enabled. The same information used to connect to Forms will be used to connect to Reports.
More details are described in the Forms/Reports Integration White Paper:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/10g/frm10gsrw10g.pdf
Specifically refer to the section titled "Using the Run_Report_Object () Built-in" on page 20.

  • Get Resource Access Descriptor from OID in Java

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get my ADF program to read DB credentials from a Database RAD - Resource Access Descriptor defined for my SSO users in OID (version 10.1.2.1.0).
    Examples are rare and sometimes they refer to deprecated functions or librairies.
    If someone had already the pleasure ;-) of reading username, password and database from a predefined RAD in OID please help: steps, examples, version of libraries, anything would be very much appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Pierre

    The api�s are suitable for the values in proper table
    format.
    But the excel sheet is like a form and from that i
    have to get the values.Write an ActiveX plug-in for Excel that will send the values to your Java program. Or write an ActiveX plug-in for Excel that runs your Java program and passes it the values.

  • Migration MS ACCESS FORMS and Reports to Oracle (Java or Forms or Reports)

    Hello ,
    can someone tell me, how i can migrate a whole MS ACCESS 2000 mdb (with forms and Reports) to Oracle.
    I think i have first migrate the Access DB with the OMWB to Oracle and in the next Step to convert the VBA Code to JAVA or Forms9i.
    BUT Is there a tool available for Migrating VBA code like the OMWB ????

    I don't know if this is an obvious question, but do you have MS Access 2k installed on the machine you are trying to run this from? I'm assuming yes.
    If you do and there is still a problem, you should log a ticket for support who will take your mdb and help out with the issue for you.
    Many thanks

  • Single Client Access Name for Weblogic Forms and Reports.

    I have a 2 node clustered system:
    Windows 2008 R2 64-bit
    Weblogic 10.3.3 (on each node)
    Weblogic Forms and Reports 11.1.1.3 (on each node)
    Database 11gR2 RAC 11.2.0.1 (on each node)
    The forms and reports are clustered and I can connect to each from each of the two servers and the cluster is working well.
    The database uses Single Client Access Name (SCAN) to present the database as if it were one server called dbserver1.
    I was wondering if there was a similar thing for Weblogic and what everyone else uses to present their application as a single name to the user.
    I tried using Windows Network Load Balancing, but this stops the database scan listeners from working.
    Thanks.

    Dear,
    Did you find an answer to your question back in 2009?
    We are facing the same installation architecture, but we do not find any concrete information regarding SCAN with Oracle Forms 11g

  • Install Forms and Report 11g, Weblogic, OID and SSO ?

    Hello,
    I want to migrate our system from Forms and Reports 6i to 11g with weblogic server 10.3.3 and I have two questions:
    1st: If we considered to obtain a system consists of (Weblogic 11g + Forms and Reports 11g + OID + SSO + Weblogic Portal + BI Publisher)
    What is the steps and the sequence of products installation and configuration, and what is the required versions of each one ?
    2nd: Can I abandon OID and SSO, is there a substitute ?
    If so, what's the steps and the sequence of products installation and configuration ?
    Thank you very much

    >
    You use the Oracle WebLogic Server installer to install Oracle WebLogic Server and to create a Middleware home (which is required before you can install Oracle Forms and Reports).
    For Oracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2 (11.1.2), download Oracle WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.5) from OTN or Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
    Be sure to select the proper Oracle WebLogic Server installer for your platform.

    weblogic you can download from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html

  • Weblogic 10.3.5 with oracle forms and reports 11.1.2.1.0

    Hi All,
    I am new to 11g concept (actually web based, have worked till 6i) and trying to upgrade my existing system (6i) to 11g. I have installed Weblogic 10.3.5 with forms and reports 11.1.2.1.0 on windows 7 32 bit. I can connect to my database (10g) from Form builder.
    But when I try to open a form/pll of 10g or 6i, it says PDE-PLI018 could not find library and it shows the path of my earlier folder, which now does not exist.
    I have made changes in registry FORMS_PATH, FORMS_BUILDER_PATH, UI_ICON
    And in default.env file FORMS_PATH and CLASSPATH
    I have added entry to tnsnames.ora, through which I can connect to DB. And have followed below site to configure weblogic and FM forms and reports;
    http://windows7bugs.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/install-configure-oracle-weblogic-server-10-3-6-forms-reports-11g-on-windows8windows-2008-r2/
    I have few doubts in my mind;
    1) Do we have to connect (create a bridge) to DB from weblogic except tnsnames.ora.
    2) For library error I think I am missing some settings to be done.
    3) If I am able to rectify above error then can I directly use http://localhost:8888/forms/frmservlet and access the system from another pc, or still there are some modifications needed.
    I am trying this from last 3 days, but couldn't find the solution, kindly help me out for same, eagerly waiting for your reply.
    Regards,
    Ash

    Hi InoL,
    Thanks for your reply, Yes, as there are many forms in my system, there is a chance that libraries attached are with the path.

  • Can I use forms and reports 6I runtime for production environment?

    I have a doubt.
    I know if i use or install developer (forms and reports 6I) both, runtime and builder, I do require a license.
    But If I buy the standard edition license for database (in production or deployment), and I wanna use the runtimes (from forms and reports) only as runtime not to modify or develop anything, is it possible? just to download it or install it in RUNTIME mode?
    Is it possible and legal?
    Thanks

    Can I download that developer and install both forms and report runtime (yes only runtime) to access a licensed standard edition database? The problem is, you can't download that version any more! All download links to Forms version earlier that 10g R2 have been removed from Oracle's web site. You might still be able to download Forms 6i from My Oracle Support, but this requires a paid license agreement with Oracle to access My Oracle Support (formerly Metalink).
    So, if you already have a copy of Oracle Developer Forms and Reports 6i then all you need to do is contact your local Oracle Sales Representative to get an official answer to your licensing question. If you don't have a copy of Forms 6i, then you are pretty much out of luck unless you know someone who has a copy!

  • How to deploy existing forms and reports on the web

    Hi Guys,
    I have 6i forms and reports within our environment, and we are running client/server architecture, by installing forms and reports runtime on each client PC's. We would like to get rid of this by deploying forms and reports on the web, without zero coding. Can any one suggest and guide me through the process with proper security mechanism enabled along with.

  • URL Problem Oracle 10g Forms and Reports

    Hello Room,
    As this question is related to forms and reports both, I have posted it here. I have a system which needs to be deployed in Local Lan Network and also the same Local Lan user should be able to access the same application via internet. In Addition there are also suppliers, customers who dosen't have oracle installed but will be accessing forms and reports via the url through internet which will be a natted url to our public IP. I have loaded Oracle 11g on windows 7 and all my network clients are on windows 7. I have not loaded forms and reports 10g on server, but only database 11g is installed on server. My problem is listed in points below:-
    1. Do I need to install forms and reports on server to achieve the above scenario ? or the local network installation of forms and reports on all client PC's will do ?
    2. To start OC4J instance, shall i start it only on server through batch file while booting server, or it needs to be started on all client PC's to start work from client end ?
    3. When i run forms from my client PC I get local url http://127.0.0.1/ to reach forms servlet which end up in http://localpc/.... from cookie redirect, whether this needs to be http://server/...... on all client PC's to reach the forms servlet ?
    4. If I have to start url http://server/ instead of http://127.0.0.1/... automatically while running every form to reach forms servlet, how to achieve this ?
    5. There are reports to be run from forms and parameters needs to be passed in reports from forms 10g. So in web.show_document shall i refer to absolute url for local acccess or http://server url as the same user can go to internet to access the data. ?
    6. if I load forms and reports 10g on server, do I need to install forms and reports on client end seperately to gain access in local network ?
    7. My forms and reports folders are located on server which are shared for access.
    8. What will be the scenario in case of suppliers and customers who does not have anything installed on their PC and will access forms and reports through internet ?
    I want to minimize my work. Please suggest me how to proceed about accessing forms, passing url from forms to reports in web.show_document, and Internet access url ?
    Your help is highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    I have tried to explain you in decent way several times that I am not lazy and there are reasons that I do not want to read pdf, because I have already read that all ! In the future please do not respond to my thread. I am not asking for your personal time. If you do not understand my efforts. Just ignore it. I have read all the white papers of Oracle and give me your email id, I will send you all the code which I have read or downloaded. You should know that the knowledge diminish as the technology change. And that does not mean every user in the forum is stupid and as wise as you are. I repeat to state that I have 15 years of experience in Oracle forms 6i._ including Oracle 7,8,9i. This is the first time I am ever visiting oracle forums since past several years. I was the first person to use oracle 7 in my city where people were not knowing what oracle is. At that time I was knowing that the password for scott is tiger which even the reputed institutes in my city was not knowing. at that time I was also knowing that one of the person from oracle made a mistake in indexing the rowid. I think this should be enough to you for now.

  • Using wls 10.3.6 (32 bit)  in oracle 11 g r2 forms and report installtion

    hi all,

    and it's installition going while
    but in installing oracle 11g r2 forms and report when i choose the middleware of it  error appear said :
    INST-07408: Unable to install or configure the product on a 32-bit JVM on a 64-bit machine" error messag
    i do not know what can i do
    as iam littel experince in oracle so plz any one write solution pleaze tell me the steps for solution step by step
    and any one refer for any something need to setup plz refer to the exact link
    thanks and regards

    First, Windows 8 is not a supported platform for installing Forms/Report 11.1.2
    Second, if you are running a 64-bit platform then you need to install the 64-bit software.  Also, before you perform any part of the installation, you will need to first install an appropriate JDK (64-bit if the OS is 64).  So in short, I would recommend you read the installation instructions and certification guide before starting.  Those documents can be access from here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/fusion-certification-100350.html
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38115_01/index.htm
    Generally speaking the installation process is simple.  Here are the basic steps:
    1.  Know your operating system and machine.  You must understand the OS with which you are working.  Is it 64bit or 32, is it an Oracle certified platform for the software you want to install, does your machine have enough RAM installed, etc.....
    2.  Install JDK version 6.  Be sure to use 64bit if your OS is 64 or 32 if your OS is 32.  Do not use Java 7 for the installation
    3.  Ensure that your machine has a static IP address.  If it does not, install and configure the Windows Loopback Adapter.
    4.  Install WLS 10.3.6
    5.  Install FMw Forms/Reports 11.1.2.1
    Although the above steps seem simple, I recommend you review the documents I mentioned before starting any installation.

    1. Did you delete tmp and cache after patching
    2. Did you clear the cached files in your browser post patching
    3. Generally the first time you access the system it takes time but the consquent attempts should not take much time.
    4. Did you increase the Java heap

  • Can we enable licensing facility for our customized forms and report...?

    He All,
    We have a product and we frequently used to send customized forms and reports to our customers through the shipment team after QC certified. But some of the customized forms and reports have sent to the customers without their knowledge from the development team, it is creating a big problem in the customer site.
    We would like to know that is there any facilities to verify that this shipment has come from through proper channel or not if not they should not open. Is there any license kind of thing that we can do..? If I run some exe file which will check that and let the customer to use it..?
    If any one have the knowledge about this kindly share with us. any kind of information regarding this can be appreciated.
    With Best Regards
    Thangaraj

    So you want the customer to be able to check if the forms where shipped through the proper department from your company?
    First thing that comes to my mind is to pack all the Forms in a JAR file (which is basically a ZIP file) and sign the JAR file with the jarsigner tool. To sign the JAR you need access to the private key that is in a keystore that's only available to this single department. The customer can verify if the JAR was signed with a proper certificate.
    You could issue your own certificate to do this but requires the user to also first import this certificate so it is trusted. You could also buy a commercial certificate from a vendor like Verisign but there are costs involved.
    Just google for jarsigner and keytool to get the idea.

Maybe you are looking for
