Oracle form connect to database at 10g R2 in window2003

Hi Experts,
I configured form application in fromsweb.cfg.
I can open form without any error. However I can not get data form database.
If formsweb.cfg, i have a string as
userid=scott/tiger@rptsale.
I configured SQL*plus with this stream and works well;
However, oracle form could not connect to rptsale database.
How to get a URL for database connections ?
I guess that I need to set a data source in app. server.
But I did not know how to enter value into JNDI Locations
Any friends can help me to do this
How do I can fix this issue?
Does Paul and BGrant is here?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi
For this you must be able to reach your database through sqlnet
can you ping the db with tnsping? can you login with sqlplus from the AS host?
if not, you should add the db connectstring in the tnsnames.ora on the AS host.
regards
Michel

Connecting 9i database from 10g OEM

Does anyone know how you would connect to a 9i database from 10g OEM?

If you want to manage a 9i environment just as if this was a 10g environment, it is not possible with the regular EM DB Control console. First of all this console is setup on a per oracle instance basis, so in the event you had a 10g Console configured this is exclusively to mange the database it is attached to.
On the other hand, you can setup db 10g Grid control, this way, by properly installing and configuring a grid agent in the target node, you can monitor and manage the 10g database. You should keep in mind that even if the 9i database is visible from the 10g grid control console, it doesn't mean the 10g features will be availabe, such as ADDM or some other advisors. If you want to monitor performance you must configure the regular Statspack available in 9i.
EM Grid Control can manage databases starting from 8.1.7.4.0

How can i store oracle forms in the database.

hi,
i m using oracle 10g and forms 6i. is it possible to store the forms in the database, is it possible plz tell the steps.
with thanks and regads
anish kumar

It's possible to store any file in a database as a blob. The steps are the same for a FMX as it is for any other type of file.
See
http://www.dbasupport.com/oracle/ora9i/storing_word_docs.shtml
However, if you are doing this because you want to use Forms Builder to to query the database for a form and run it, then that may not be possible.

Oracle Forms 6i and database oracle 11g

Hello!
Today we have Oracle Forms 6i running against databse 9i. We are in the process of upgrading our db to 11g.
Will our Forms application still work? What steps do we need to do to make it work?
Any input is valuable.
We have the same quetsion oabout Oracle reports 6i.

Hello,
I you follow the Note:338513.1 on Metalink, you can see the following:
Forms / Reports 6i patchset 16 or patchset 17 was certified to work against Oracle Server (RDBMS)+
+10g Rel 1 (10.1.x)+
Forms / Reports 6i has never been certified, nor will it ever be certified against Oracle Server (RDBMS) 10g Rel 2 (10.2.x) or Oracle Server (RDBMS) 11g (11.x).
+(This is because Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported - see important note below)+
Important Note: Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported e.g.
- If running in client-server mode, Forms / Reports 6i was desupported at end of January 2005
- If deploying over the web, Forms / Reports 6i (Oracle 9iAS Rel 1 Forms / Reports Services) was desupported at the end of June 2004
This means that Forms / Reports development will no longer provide an error correction service for Forms / Reports 6i (unless an organisation has purchased extended maintenance support) Therefore, Oracle strongly recommends that customers using desupported versions upgrade to a supported version e.g upgrade to Oracle Developer Suite 10g Rel 1 or 2 / Oracle Application Server 10g Rel 1 or 2

Text field highlighting Issue in oracle forms 11g after migrating from 10g

We have migrated the oracle forms from 10g to 11g.
On 10g oracle form when I click on the text item then text item value gets hilighted in blue color but after converting same form(without making any code changes) into 11g version form when I click on then text item then value is NOT hilighted.
Could please help me why it's behaving different? Are there any configuration changes required at the application server side?
Thanks

christian,
We have forms 11.1.1.2.0.
In oracle forms “text item value is highlighted When user clicks on text item” is controlled by form level property “KEEP CURSOR POSITION”.
This property is not working with JAVA SUN plug-in in forms version 11.1.1.2.0.
This issue has been fixed under Patch Set 2 (11.1.1.3.0). Please see below meta link.

How Connect Oracle Forms 6 With Database 11g R2

Hello every one:
I'm Have application made by Forms 6 and Oracle 10g, now i'm make upgrade to my DB to 11G
but have problem when make connection between Forms 6 and 11g
ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION
pls help me !!
Thnx

Oracle Forms 6i is not certified with Oracle RDBMS 11g and the last I read - there was no plans to certify Forms 6i with RDBMS 11g. If you search the Forums you can find some workarounds to make Forms 6i work with RDBMS 11g, but these are not Oracle Supported workarounds.
Your only real options are to leave things as they are or upgrade both your Forms application and the database. If you opt to upgrade your Forms application, you need to upgrade your Forms application to at least Forms 10g R2 (10.1.2.0.2) to be supported.

Performance questions in Oracle Forms/Reports of Application Server 10g

Hello.
I have a dual Xeon 2.6 computer with 3 GB of memory and 6 GB of cache, running RedHat EL 3 with Oracle AS 10g (9.0.4.0.0).
Application Server is used to run some applications created with forms, and it generates several reports, but the forms are also used as a front end to another Oracle Database (Oracle 7.0, runing in Sun Solaris 5.6).
I've notested (and also my users) the application is getting very slow (is running in a dual Xeon, with 2 Gbit nics, in a 3 Gb backbone).
The speed (or lack of it) is most noted when the forms are generating the reports (it used to be fast - 2 seconds) and now it can take up to 5 minutes.
The AS 10g, when generating the reports, almost all of the querys go to the other server (in Solaris) and the results return to the server, and then the report is generated. The network has no problems (at least, that i know of), and the network performance is not an issue - both the servers are connected to a Gbit switch.
Can someone may have an ideia of it can be?
even in the clients, when running the forms application, the transition of the several menus is slow, and it used to be more fast.
the 10g is using Java Jinitiator 1.3.18. Can it be from that ? i'm not certain, but i could say this things start happen when we upgraded the jinitiator from 1.3.13 to 1.3.18...
My users are really getting on my nervers and i cant do nothing, because they have reason...
any help would be appreciated !
Cheers
Bruno Santos

Bruno, did you solve the performance problem? I'm experiencing the same lack of speed.

Not able to open infopath form connected with database in sharepoint 2010

Hi,
I have created one infopath form which is connected with sql server database.
Now when i am trying to open this form from sharepoint,its giving me following error:
Please help to solve this issue.
Thanks & Regards
rajni

Hello,
If i understood you correctly, you have SP list and there are some records. Now you want to open your infopath form when clicks on add new item in the same list. I am still confuse about "from table 'Account'" this line. Are you saying that you are fetching
records from SQL table to PS list?
Anyway, you can modify the existing list form infopath so you could be able to open the infopath form instead of default newform.aspx page. Later you can create a new data connection in that customize form to display data in table format from same list.
You can follow this video for connection:

How to give security to prevent using oracle forms "FORMS_DDL" In Database

How to prevent user to use FORMS_DDL in program or security in database to prevent this in Database level
Thanks in Advance.

user to use FORMS_DDLHuh? Your users write forms-modules? There is no way to "forbid" the use of FORMS_DDL. What about defining a rule for your developers that they are not allowed to do so. Then you could write a little JDAPI-program whichs "scans" new modules if FORMS_DDL is used.

Forms 6 not connecting with Database 10g

I can not connect Oracle forms 6 with database 10g

795192 wrote:
I can connect to sql plus but i cannot connect my forms 6 with database 10g. getting the following error:
ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name=================================
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
This error means one thing, and one thing only. The client could not find the specified entry in the tnsnames.ora file being used.
As a follow-on to that statement, remember that when you use a dblink, the database in which the link is defined is acting as a client to the database that is the target of the link. So in this case, the tnsnames.ora file on the host of your source should have an entry for your target db, as defined in the db_link.
And for the umpteenth time ... this error has NOTHING to do with the status of a listener. The connection request never got far enough to reach a listener. If anyone tells you to check a listener in response to ora-12154, they are not paying attention, or do not understand how TNS works. This error is the equivalent of not being able to place a telephone call because you don't know the number of the party you want to reach. You wouldn't debug that situation by going to the other guy's house and testing his telephone, or by going to the phone company and testing the switchboard. And you don't debug a ORA-12154 by checking the listener. If I had a top ten list of "Incredibly Simple Concepts (tm)" that should be burned into the brain of everyone who claims to be an Oracle DBA, it would include "ORA-12154 Has Nothing To Do With The Listener".
=================================
A couple of important points.
First, the listener is a server side only process. It's entire purpose in life is to receive requests for connections to databases and set up those connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It doesn't sustain the connection. One listener, with the default name of LISTENER, running from one oracle home, listening on a single port, will serve multiple database instances of multiple versions running from multiple homes. It is an unnecessary complexity to try to have multiple listeners or to name the listener as if it belongs to a particular database. That would be like the telephone company building a separate switchboard for each customer.
Second, the tnsnames.ora file is a client side issue. It's purpose is for address resolution - the tns equivalent of the 'hosts' file further down the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host machine is because that machine can also run client processes.
Assume you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:
larry =
(DESCRIPTION =
 (ADDRESS_LIST =
 (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost)(PORT = 1521))
 (CONNECT_DATA =
 (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
)Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
$> sqlplus scott/tiger@larrytns will look in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called 'larry'. Next, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) using (PROTOCOL = TCP), asking for a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).
Where is (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request gets passed from tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name 'myhost' will get resolved to an IP address, either via a local 'hosts' file, via DNS, or possibly other less used mechanisms. You can also hard-code the ip address (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.
Next, the request arrives at port 1521 on myhost. Hopefully, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and that listener knows about SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.
What can go wrong?
First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames. In that case you get "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" No need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc. If you can't place a telephone call because you don't know the number (can't find your telephone directory (tnsnames.ora) or can't find the party you are looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look for problems at the telephone switchboard.
Maybe the entry for larry was found, but myhost couldn't be resolved to an IP address (say there was no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe there was an entry for myserver in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe the IP was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, but it is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, it is listening on the specified port, but doesn't know about SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor"
