Oracle 8i (8.1.6) & Forms 6i

Hellow Everybody
I would like to ask about Forms 6i & Oracle8i 8.1.6. Whenever I wanna install Forms 6i in $Oracle_Home it says:
"The location specified E:\Orant, is already used as an Oracle home for Oracle 816 production. It cannot be used as an Oracle for NT".
If I made another home, for ex. E:\Orant\Ordev and name it $DEV_HOME another message appears:
"Oracle Net8 client dose not support multiple Oracle homes ...."
Unfortunately I tried everything !!
Any Comment please !!
Regards

I have currently have Form6i/Report6i/Oracle8.1.6/OEM in the same machine.
1. Install Forms6i to default directory
2. Install Report6i to same directory
3. Reboot system
4. Delete tnsname.ora and sqlnet (Net8)
5. Reboot system
6. Install Oracle 8.1.6 E/PE into different directory etc. c:/816i
7. config net8 under 8.16
8. config net8 under 8.05 to point to 8.16 sid and its directory
9. Install OEM
This should work.

  • Hyperlink in MS Word document to Oracle Portal 9.0.4 form does not work

    Hi,
    In a MS Word document a link to a Oracle Portal 9.0.4 form is written this way:
    http://myserver/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=47602092358
    When clicking on the link, and at the same time holding the Ctrl-button, an error is displayed
    Error: An unexpected error occurred: ORA-01403: no data found (WWV-16016)
    and the URL is changed to
    http://myserver/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.show?p_sessionid=248080&p_header=true
    But if the hyperlink is copy/pasted from the Word document to the addressline of any browser, the form is opened without problems.
    Any proposals how to write hyperlink in MS Word to Portal forms will be much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Oracle 10g Express Edition and Forms 6i

    Hi,
    Need to know if Oracle 10g express edition supports forms 6i or not?
    Please advise.
    Thanks you very much.

    Thanks for the answers.
    Yes, XE universal does not work, but XE Western European does. I am having a hard time to configure Net8. The net configuration tools simply crash right away every time I try to run them. The sql*plus on form side crashes when I hit the connect button. The only thing that can run with no problem is form. I had to manually edit the tnsnames.ora file on form side, setting host=computer name and sid=XE. Tried many times until it worked.

  • I want to connect oracle 10g developer run time forms to oractle data base

    Hey,
    Would any body want to tell me, how come i can connect oracle dev 10g from its forms with oracle 10g data bases

    Try asking this on the Oracle Forms forum:
    http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=19
    In any case you need to set-up a sqlnet connection from your client to your server. Use the Network Configuration Utility that comes with the Oracle Forms installation.

  • Which modules of oracle apps have reports and forms?

    which modules of oracle apps have reports and forms? Do I need to have strong programming knowledge to learn these?
    Plz try to respond as I need to get started with the traiining asap.

    Most of Oracle Apps modules come with reports and forms. You would probably need to create your custom module (with custom forms/reports) instead of modifying the standard Oracle Apps forms and reports. Start with "Oracle Applications Developer's Guide" and "Oracle Applications Concepts" manuals, it should be helpful.

  • Oracle reports calling problem from FORMS

    Hies
    Guys I've a problem in oracle report calling from Oracle FORMS. I am using reports and forms 6i. When the report name length is more than 30 characters the report engine runs first time correctly but on the second call of report the system gives an error :
    " RWRBE60.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.You will need to restart the program ".
    After this error the report engine closes and i have to call the report again.
    Is there a length fixed for reports name in Oracle 6i.
    Is any possible solution available.
    Remember i dont want to shorten my report names.
    Kindly help me with this.
    Thanx.

    Thanx Frank

  • In oracle Open Script (OATS) OracleEBS/Forms project all the elements or fields are being identified as web objects.

    In oracle Open Script (OATS), we have created an OracleEBS/Forms project. But when we try to record the script all the elements or fields are being identified as web objects. Due to this we are unable to use the functions like getText. Hence, please help.
    Example: The below line when executed gives an error " Failed to connect to the Oracle Forms applet after 90 seconds. Verify that the applet launching page opens, and that the Forms Startup Timeout setting is high enough for this site."
    forms.textField("/web:window[@index='0' or @title='Person']/web:document[@index='7' or @name='tabPage']/web:input_text[@id='PER_ID' or @name='PER_ID' or @index='0']").getText();
    We have already set the event timeouts in OpenScript Preferences -> Playback -> OracleEBS/Forms Functional as
    Forms startup time out = 90Sec
    Forms Action timeout = 120Sec
    Forms Response Timeout = 120 Sec.
    OpenScript
    Version: 12.4.0.1 Build 139

    If it is a name resolution I would try either replacing the server name in the script with the IP address or making an entry in the local host file of the machine trying to play back the script
    If you try one or both of those approaches does the script play back?

    Hi Carlota,
    Now that the WebLogic and OHS environments are functional, there are some configurations that will be required to set up your Forms environment. Before deploying your own 11g forms, I would test to see if Oracle's test form (test.fmx) can run which is deployed by default in %ORACLE_HOME%\forms. What is supposed to happen is that when you run the URL you are using, Oracle Forms will:
    1. Attempt to download the Java Runtime if not installed already. A Java Runtime (JRE) is required to run Oracle Forms 11gR2. The application will try to download the JRE specified in the formsweb.cfg file (sets up the Web environment for Forms) based off the jpi_codebase parameter (if using IE) or jpi_mimetype (if using other supported browsers). Make sure that your browser is able to download the JRE. Alternatively, you may also download a JRE from the Java website http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. NOTE: Unless you are running Internet Explorer 64-bit (if you simply run Internet Explorer, this is 32-bit), I would download the 32-bit JRE.
    2. Attempt to start the test.fmx form deployed in the FORMS_PATH variable. This variable is set in default.env, which is the standard environment variable deployment file for Forms (formsweb.cfg also references this file in the default section). If successful, you should receive a page saying "Installed successfully" as well as show you the version of Oracle Forms you are running (ex. 11.1.2.1.0).
    Once those tests are work, if you need any assistance with deploying your own 11g forms, the Oracle Forms 11gR2 deployment guide provides a great source of information to help you get started: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/doc.11120/e24477/toc.htm
    Thanks,

  • Oracle UCM 11G missing Web Form Editor

    Hello All,
    Oracle 10G UCM provided a WebForm Editor. After installation of newer version Oracle UCM 11G we found the feature is missing.
    Is there a substitute provided by Oracle in 11G version for the same?
    We need to provide functionality to end users where they could go and create some forms on their own. We were thinking to use Web-Form Editor for the same, but to our surprise we found the feature is missing.
    Can anyone suggest if we are missing something. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Kent,
    You're correct that the general UCM docs don't include that detail, but the FormEditor component readme.txt does include that info. I didn't open the readme.doc, but the readme says that there's more info in there.
    From the component readme:
    <snip>
    Updated 2010-02-16
    The HTML editor UI is now only enabled if the configuration parameter HasWebFormEditorUI is set
    to true. See BUG 9218712

  • Issues during reinstallation Oracle 10g express edition and Forms 6i

    I've been racking my head over this issue for the past two three days. Exasperated, I tried searching in the forums but could not find a specific scenario like this.
    I am facing issues while trying to get forms 6i to work with oracle 10g Express edition
    i have windows XP home edition (installed service pack 2) and installed oracle 10g express edition as well as the oracle 10g express client and SQL developer on the same machine. The database started fine and I was able to use Enterprise manager.
    After that I tried installing Forms 6i and whatever i try i am not able to connect to the database from Forms though I was able to connect easily from SQL developer. I used to get the error 12154 "TNS:could not resolve service name"
    I dont know if Forms 6i expects the database connector string in some particular format. I searched on the net and found some people solved the issue by reinstalling the database software.
    My machine name was complex so I changed it as well and reinstalled the software. Again the DB was fine and connections were fine but no way I could get forms to connect to the DB. All the time
    I tried installing Forms to the same folder that Oracle express edition home in the hope that it might fix the problem. That only caused my database to crash. The oracle xe service shows as started but the Enterprise manager link does not work and it seems the database is down. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling client and server to no avail.
    Has anyone gone through such a situation and solved this ? Appreciate your help.

    The statement about XP Home is correct, but in this case I would say the initial problem (Forms and ORA-12154) is independent of that, it also happens in a supported environment. I think it's the old problem, a second Oracle home was installed, but tnsnames.ora containing the connect informations is located in the first home.
    Either tnsnames.ora is copied from to <Second_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin or the environment variable TNS_ADMIN is set system-wide to <First_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin.
    I think now it's necessary to create a clean machine (remove all Oracle components as explained in the database installation guide for Windows). Then repeat the installation , but XE and Forms 6i in different ORACLE_HOMEs.

  • Oracle 9i Developper Suite Run form

    Hello everyone
    I have oracle 9i Developer Suite and Oracle 9i Database installed on my PC on Windows Xp .
    When I am running the form the first time I am able to run it but the next time when I run it I get an error
    FRM-92050 :Failed to connect to the server /forms90.i90servlet
    FRM-92102 : A network error has occurred . The forms client has attempted to reestablish its connection to the server 5 times without success.
    If I reboot my pc and run I am able to run it once and again get the same error messages .
    Any help from you will be very helpful to me ,
    Thanks

    I suggest you edit the DEFAULT.ENV file in the <ORACLE_HOME>\forms90\server directory and add the directory where you are saving your forms to the FORMS90_PATH entry. Most likely what is happening is that the OC4J can't find the Form you are trying to run so it displays an empty Java Applet window.
    Hope this helps.
