I have difficulties with weblogic server.I get error which is http listener is not running ....
İs there any chance that I can open my forms with another way ?

Welcome to Oracle Forums!
Please acquaint yourself with the FAQ and forum etiquette if you haven't already done so.
You should always explicitly state your Forms version.
As you have mentioned Weblogic I presume you are on 11g.
To run the fmx files you need the OFM up and running, on the client if you are running from within Form Builder or on the server. There is no other way.
Please see Verifying Oracle Forms and Reports Installation and Configuration and Starting an Oracle Fusion Middleware Environment

Hi all,
I am working with forms in different versions.
I have number of fmx files with few are complied in 5i, few are in 6i and few are complied in 10g.
All are in the same directory.
The problem is because of all are reside in the same directory, i don't know the version of the selected file.With out changing/opening the fmb file and fmx file Can i know the version of the selected fmx file?
Is there any possiblity to get the version of fmx file with java code?
Advance thnaks

Hai prasath..
as i said we will not change fmb/fmx file directly.
Is there any chance to write a small java code and get the version.
adv thanks

Problem with opening the .fmx file through hyperlink

I am trying to open a .fmx file through hyperlink. After clicking on the hyperlink a dilogue box opens up and asks for "open from the remote server", "save on the local disk" and cancel. If I click on open the .fmx file opens up and applications starts working.
Problem is "I do not want this dialogue box to be opened after clicking on the hyperlink". I tried to change the mime type and changed the setting of Internet explorer. But it does not work.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
thanx in advance
anil dhiman

whever i refresh the entire application in the tomact then its been recognizedMaybe you're creating and downloading it asynchronously so that the creation of the file isn't finished yet while you're about to download it.

How to Compile (Overwrite .Fmx) if fmx file is opened?

Hi,
How to Compile (Overwrite .Fmx) if fmx file is opened? Is there any parameter to be set on server or something else?
i am using 10g application server

I think W1zard is refering to the setting/usage of FORMS_MMAP=FALSE, which means NOT working with memory mapping, that is the problem.
Both metalink notes advise against Setting FORMS_MMAP=FALSE in Production environments.
I also found another website where they advise against it for Production environments.
We do not use it because of that...
Excerpt from Metalink note 151618.1 - Unable to Replace .fmx Files 'On The Fly' During Forms Runtime
When the FORMSxx_MMAP value to 0 or FALSE, Oracle Forms by-passes the default memory mapping
and writes the file to memory for each time accessed. Thus, the executables are left closed
on the file system, allowing for updates even during Forms Runtime. The disadvantage is that
this may increase memory usage and reduce performance because the whole file structure
is loaded into memory.
For production systems, it is recommended that FORMSxx_MMAP should be unset or set to a value of 1 or TRUE
Excerpt from Metalink note 286762.1 - How to Replace Forms Runtime Files in Production Environments 'On The Fly'
One solution for this problem is to use parameter FORMS_MMAP/FORMS90_MMAP/
FORMS60_MMAP/FORMS50_MMAP/FORMS45_MMAP as described
in the following document :
Note 151618.1 "Unable to Replace .fmx Files 'On The Fly' During Forms Runtime"
However as described in this document, this parameter should not be used in production
environments.http://orafrm.blogspot.com/2007/07/formsmmap.html

How to make changes to .fmx file using the form builder

Hi all
I have a .fmx form in the AR_TOP directory of the Oracle E-business suite.Now I need to make some changes to the form and compile it and place it back .But the .fmx file didnot open using the form builder 6i .So is there any way that i can convert the .fmx to .fmb so that I can open the form using the Form builder 6i??
I have the toad s/w installed but I dont know how to open the form using the Toad.
Thanks

I have a .fmx formYou cannot open a fmx-file with any developer tool. To make changes to the source-code you need the fmb-file and open it witj Forms-builder
AR_TOP -directory of the Oracle E-business suiteBe careful when changing source-code in the ebusiness-suite. If its a module from oracle i don't if its supported if you do changes in it.
I have the toad s/w installed but I dont know how to open the form using the Toad.Toad is definitely the wrong tool for forms-modules.

Compiling fmb module in Form builder does not change the fmx file

Hi,
I am using Oracle Forms Builder version 10.1.2.0.2 To edit 10g2 forms.
In the last month, it happened twice that an fmb file I edited in the forms builder did not change the fmx aftrer compilation.
namely, when I opened the fmx file in the application, I didn't see the changes, but they were present in the fmb form opened in the Form Builder.
Usually when we have the fmx file open in the application, the form builder won't let me compile it - showing the following error:
FRM-30087: Unable to create form file
When this error happens and the changes are not reflected, this error message doesn't appear even though the fmx file is open in the application.
I tried deleting the fmx file, and then opening it in the application to see if there is another copy of it.
The application gave an error 40010 - can't read form.
When I recompiled the file, the fmb didn't show any changes either, even though the file was created again in the file system.
I could not find a way to consistently reproduce this problem.
Did you ever encounter such a problem?
I noticed the edit -> preferences -> general menu has the option to "save befor building".
Does it mean the Form Builder keeps a cached copy of the fmb in memory, and when this error happens it compiles the original file system fmb file rather than the cached memory copy with the changes?
Thanks,

Hey Craig,
Thank you for your response.
I verified the version of the forms on the Application Server and they are the same.
This problem is quite tricky to reproduce, it happens once every few months!
(we have about 10 developers, who are developing and testing on multiple servers - so far two of the servers showed this issue)
I've determined that the reason this happens is that:
1. The compiled fmx is vied in the application.
** for some reason, the frmweb.exe process on the server does not terminate properly **
2. The developer compiles the form again in Form Builder
3. The Form Builder does not detect that the form is open in the mal-terminated process
There usually is an error message here saying the fmx module is locked - this error happens because this message is not displayed.
I will attach an image of the process monitoring tool we use ( ProceXP ) showing the ghost process that locks the fmx module.
<edit>oops, I guess I can't attach the image- I can e-mail it if you'd like</edit>
If anyone has an idea for a solution, this will help immensely.
Eyal

Problem with fmx file

dear friends
i work with oracle developer6i, oracle severe edition9i under windows2000 advanced server
i created my form succseefuly and i complied it to fmx file
but when clicking on this fmx file it does not run and the open with dialog appeard
all i need is when i click on the fmx file my form just run

You mean to say... clicking on "fmx" file from mouse?.
U can not run the fmx file by clicking on generated file..
Use command line to launch(run) the fmx file.
like
c:> <executable> <username/passoword@connectstring> <fmx>
I have not used Developer6i, so I don't the executable(bin) file name.
similar to
f60runm user/pass@conn1 file_1_fmx

Reverse Engineering from .fmx file?

Is it possible to recover a corrupt .fmb file from the .fmx file? Somehow, my .fmb file got corrupted and I can no longer access it; however, the .fmx file seems to be OK. Is there any way I can get that .fmb file back?
Thanks for your help.

Try running CHKCONS & PURGEPUS utilities on the fmb. I had a similar problem with a file in Forms 4.5 and was able to successfully recover it.
First, add the CHKCONS option to the Forms generator icon property as follows: module=<filename> userid=<username/passwd> chkcons=yes. Then, double click on the icon to generate. A dialog box appears indicating no file has been generated.
Now, add the PURGEPUS=yes option to the designer icon and try opening the fmb.

What I want is that : I simply click on *.fmx file and it will go the IE and It will open as I do it while working on Builder and Clicking run Button.
And by saying that : "" Specify C:\orant\BIN\ifrun60.EXE module=myform.fmx userid=scott/tiger@db as a target in shortcut properties.""
Due to this thread about 6i, I couldn't find any ifrun60.exe in my folder ( 11g).
Please Help me
Note : I even try to type ""http://localhost:8080/forms/frmservlet?form=otobusfirmasi.fmx&userid=xx/123123@xe"" directly to the internet explorer. But no I couldn't open
Tried http://localhost:8080/forms/frmservlet?form=otobusfirmasi.fmx&config=sepwin again failed.

Hi Kardelen,
if you are using oracle developer suite then you have to create an entry of your form in formsweb.cfg file like below, which is kept under <Developer Home Directory>\forms\server\ directory and then you can use it in IE like this
http://192.168.10.56:8889/forms/frmservlet?config=Myapp
if you are using Application Server then you have to move your forms in application server and make the same entry there
[Myapp]
separateFrame=TRUE
lookandfeel=oracle
form=D:\Ora\ora_dir\form\demo.fmx
userid=scott/tiger@home
splashScreen=False

RWMS Login issue: FRM-40010 cannot read fmx file.

Hi Experts
I installed RWMS R13.1 on 10.1.2.3 and used below url to open it first time.
http://machine:7779/forms/frmservlet?config=application_name
It throw below error
FRM-40010 cannot read fmx file.
Please help.

hi,
check the application configuration. It might be pointing to the wrong path of the compiled oracle forms (.fmx) or simply the forms have error during compilation

Forms tool not generating FMX file - HELP!

I'm trying to generate a .FMX file. My problem is, is that Forms very rarely creates one when the form is Compiled.
Very occasionally a file is produced, but I can't figure out the conditions when it does.
I've tried deleting an existing .FMX file.
I've tried closing the form and reopening it.
I've tried completely shutting down the session and opening a new one. (This worked once)
I've tried opening a different form first.
I've tried both Module compiles and Incremental compiles first before a Compile All.
Is there a flag or setting somewhere that is stopping the FMX file from being produced.

I am unable to open raw files from my Canon T1i in Adobe Camera Raw of my version CS3 of Photoshop. I have tried to update my ACR by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe website but I am still unable to open raw files, just JPEG. Is there a way to use

I am unable to open raw files taken on my Canon Rebel T1i in my version of Photoshop CS3. When I import raw files into Bridge they come up as patches with CR2 on them and when clicked on, a notice comes up stating that Photoshop does not recognize these files. I tried to update my Adobe Camera Raw by downloading version 4.6 from the Adobe Website, but when I clicked on the plus-in, I got another message that Photoshop does not recognize this file. I spoke with a representative from Canon who said that I could not update CS3 and that I should subscribe to the Cloud. I would prefer to use my CS3, if possible. Can anyone advise me what to do?

The T1i was first supported by Camera Raw 5.4 which is only compatible with CS4 and later
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
Some options:
Upgrade to CS6
Join the Cloud
Download the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all T1i Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS3

How to read,dispaly and open pdf files

Hi, I am very new to Java butI have VB6.0 background. My current requirement is to read pdf file names from a directory, then
show them on a form in a list (with their path in background pointing to the actual pdf files) and then once a user clicks any
file name, open that file on the form.
For example:
My pdf files are in a directory as following:
C:\myreports\user1\
report1.pdf
report2.pdf
report3.pdf
C:\myreports\user2\
report1.pdf
report5.pdf
The output on the form should look like this if user1 has logged in the system. Side note: I am able to get userid of the logged in person in a variable.
My Reports:
. Report 1
. Report 2
. Report 3
When a user clicks Report 1, it opens on the same form in pdf format.
Thanks
S.yhong

For the first part (Listing thepdf files in the directory) you can use the java.lang.File class.
File f = new File("path to your directory");
File files[] = f.listFiles();
then process the files array to find the files with extenction pdf
You can also use a file filter object and make the listFiles method return only the pdf files.
Please read the documentation about the File class for more info about it.
*/ For the displaying the pdf part is it good enough if you load the accrobat reader and with it. In that case you can do that using the Runtime.exec
Also you can search for free java based pdf viewers I am sure there must be meny.
And also the JTextPane might support pdf but I am not sure about it.
EDIT:
Just to say that this is my 1000th post :)
