Oracle Express and forms/reports

Hi there
If we install Oracle Express database on a remote site with single server can we run Oracle forms/reports on the same server that will connect to the Oracle Express database ?

Yes you can. Just create the required Oracle Net conntections and use it in your froms and reports. Ensure that the listener is running.

  • SSO and Forms/Reports Standalone Installation

    Hi,
    we have different Oracle AS as forms/reports standalone installations in our company.
    SSO_FORMSID and GROUP_DN were configured during the OracleAS installation. So you have during installation to define OID parameters (host, port). But that input is only required within complete application server installation.
    In standalon installation you cannot define OID setting.
    But in formsConfig.properties and formsweb.cfg placeholder for SSO are available.
    So it is possible to use standalone forms with SSO. And how can I do that.
    I understand that I have to define SSO_FORMSID for application server and same ID I have to register in OID. But how?1
    br Kay Basler

    The SSO information is included in those files because they are standard files across all installation types. Without the full installation (Infrastructure and Middle Tier) you cannot use SSO.
    Refer to the following for a list of all restrictions associated with the Forms/Reports Services installation:

  • Performance of WEB enabling ( Converting to Oracle 8i and Forms 6i)

    We are working on a project to convert a forms 4.5 and Oracle 7.3.4 application to a web based app ( Oracle 8i and Forms 6i). I want to know if there will be a performance hit (improve or decrease) as a result of this.
    Please help

    Satish - concerned about your statement that you have not used in in production but you think its not the good. If you can quantify your statement I will address is.
    As for Bobs points - check out http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jsp?id=836060
    This probably addresses Bobs concerns.
    If you are concerned - take a look at the testimonials. Go to otn.oracle.com/products/forms and click on the Testimonials link.
    Believe it or not we actually have people who are running FASTER on the Web - How can that be!!! - well the reason is that the have uses on slow links - when running client server there database access is across these links and since they had database intensive application they found it could be slow. On the web the data trasfer between the app server and the database was on a fast link and the client (who are still on the slow link) are getting only screen draw information which is alot less than the database traffic.
    Hope this helps

  • Is there any difference in oracle database and forms database

    i want to know is there any difference in oracle database and forms 6i database
    ,if i import some file through oracle database then same data will exist in forms database or not
    thanks

    Oracle Forms is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool not a database. With Forms, you connect to an Oracle database to query and display data from the database as well as insert new or update existing data. Consequently, if exists in the database - you should be able to display it in a Form.

  • I want to install Oracle 8i and forms 6i on xp

    I want to install Oracle 8i and forms 6i on xp. Kindly give me a complete step by step file, so that i can know before installation......
    Thanks

    Get into a time machine and go back about 20 years. ;-)
    You are asking about something hopefully no one has done for a decade ... installing desupported software on a desupported database on a desupported operating system on, perhaps, some antique server.
    Perhaps someone else kept their notes from back in the Jurassic period but mine were in a recycle bin many many years ago.
    If you really wish to do this I suspect you are going to be stuck doing it the way we did back then ... read the docs accompanying the installation files.

  • Oracle 10gR2 and Forms 6i Combination

    One of my company's division after suffering skill gap for many years decided finally to turn their system under my care. This means more work for me but it would be a welcome change since it will give back some exposure from my past life using SQLForms, CDE and Designer 2000 etc.
    As a prerequisite I got involved to provide technical direction to a project to "modernize" their system with the "almost" current version that is still supported or "almost" supported by Oracle.
    My question is this : ( In reference to Note 229929.1 Stating that Oracle 10GR2 and Form 6i combo is not supported as a combination ( because Form 6i is already desupported ) Is there anyone here have that combination running on production ?
    Was there any problem ?
    At the back of my mind I am very confident that I can make this combination work .
    It would be useful if someone can confirm this combo. (ie 10gR2 and Forms 6i).
    You may ask "Why not go with the latest ? ".This was for many reasons. I don't want to introduce shocking changes to the developers (they are already behind on technology and skillset), also Forms 6i is still Client-server which where they want to remain at the moment. The project was given a very short time to convert the system.
    Introducing a new architecture will definitely introduce more task than these guys can handle in such short period.
    Feedback for any real life experience on this combo is appreciated .
    Thanks in advance.

  • Problems about deploying Oracle web application (Forms, Reports)

    I am going to deploy Oracle web applications (Forms and Reports) and plan to use the same server machine for both Application web server and Database server.
    1. How can I enable SSL (for data encryption) on Application web server for Oracle Forms ?
    2. Since both Application web server and Database server will use the same machine, do I still need Oracle Advanced Security for data transmission between Application web server and Database server if data encryption for transmission is required ?
    3. Can I user Oracle Forms to call Oracle Report on web as I did in Client/Server in the past ?
    Experts like you may have come across such problems. Would you please give me some opinions/ideas ?
    Regards,
    Richard

    1. check the paper about the Forms servlet architecture on otn forms section for SSL tips.
    3. Check the reports and forms integration paper on otn too.

  • How to avoid error while install oracle developer suite10g(forms & reports)

    hi dear all in recent times i am trying to install oracle developer suite 10g to learn forms and reports in my lap having windows 7 ultimate version ,32 bit,2.56 GB of ram .I downloaded two files ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1 and ds_window_x86_101202_disk2 and i downloaded Oracle universal Installer but i am unable to complete installation process ,When i click on complete(1.11gb) version which include forms,reports,xml,j developer I am facing this type of error message
    "Install has encountered an error while attempting to verify your virtual settings.please verify that the sum of the initial sizes of the paging files is at least 256 mb"
    Could any one help how to avoid this type of error message ? or else is there any other way to download Oracle forms and reports version

    Ok, Oracle Developer Suite (ODS) 10g (Forms/Reports) was not designed for Windows 7. In order to the ODS you must follow these steps for the installation to be successful.
    1. You must set the Virtual Memory (VM) size. The Oracle installer can not read Windows Managed VM. See the Microsoft article Change the size of virtual memory for more information on setting the VM size.
    2. The Oracle Installer does not recognize the internal version number of Windows 7, so you have to set the compatibility mode on the Setup.exe to Windows XP. Right-Click the SETUP.EXE and select properties. Then click the Compatibility Tab and in the Compatibility Mode area set this to "Run this program in compatibility mode" and select "Windows XP SP3".
    3. You must run the ODS setup.exe as the Administrator. Right-click the setup.exe and select "Run as Administrator".
    Having done these three steps, your installation should be successful.
    Hope this helps,
    Craig B-)

  • Oracle 10g and 11g Reports

    I recently upgraded from Oracle Forms/Reports 10g to 11g.  Oracle 10g Reports when saved as a PDF is easily converted to a word document, however ,Oracle 11g does not convert as 10g does.  What is the difference and how to make the 11g report saved in a PDF be able to convert to a Microsoft Word document cleanly.
    Thank you,
    Steven

    Hello,
    There is a "known issue" with the PDF in 11g:
    ALERT: Reports PDF Problems in 11.1.2.1.0 Patchset for Non-Linux Platforms (Doc ID 1522543.1)
    May be the problem comes from this "issue" ...
    "Patch Set Exception" exist for this issue.
    Kind regards

    Hi,
    1)As per certification matrix Forms and Reports 11.1.1.7.0 is supported on Windows 2012.
       So in order to install Forms and Reports you need to first install the Forms and Reports software binaries then need to run the config.sh command from %ORACLE_HOME%/bin.
       No need to create any domain using the config.sh from Weblogic home.
    2)Please see if the below prerequisites were met :-
       . Assign Proper ip, hostname & domain name
      . Entry of ip, host name & domain name in etc/hosts file
      . Disable anti-virus if any
      . Disable ipv6, a
      . Disable Windows Firewall, Windows Update & Windows Management Instrumentation at Service level (services.msc)
      . Create 2 folder "tmp" & "Java" for temp, jdk & jre installation. And set the path of installed jdk in Environment Variable
