Oracle Forms  (11.1.2.2.0) is supported on RED HAT 7

Hi, all...
I need know if Oracle Forms  (11.1.2.2.0) is supported on RED HAT 7, in certmatrix, the RED HAT 6  is supported, if I install in RED HAT 7, Oracle supports the product?
Thank you.

This forum is dedicated to support the Oracle Maven Repository and related Maven functionality and therefore, are unlikely to find answers to your Oracle Forms-related questions here.  However, if the certification matrix does not explicitly list RHEL 7, that means that it has not been certified to run on RHEL 7.

  • Oracle Linux 6.2 with RH compatible kernel .versus. Red Hat Linux 6.2 diff?

    Hello everyone
    * assume that I booted Oracle Linux 6.2 with a Red Hat Compatible Kernel - as opposed to booting the Oracle Linus 6.2 with UEK R1 or UEK R2 kernels *
    I am interested in any feature differences between the two OS relating to: functionality, reliability, performance, stability and tools.
    The reason I ask is that my employer is trying to figure out if OL 6.2 with a RH compatible kernel is identical to the RHEL 6.2 OS, if we excluded the Oracle UEK and Oracle clustering extra functionality.
    This OS will not be used to run Oracle 11g R2 database, this is to be used for any other Linux based non-database applications (such has running Java, JDBC, Apache, C/C++, etc).
    many thanks
    Yuri

    So now I can tell them to use Oracle Linux 6.x with a RH compatible kernel for all those non-DB systems and use OL 6.x with UEK for Oracle 11g database.
    And I remember there was (still is?) a third kernel, which does not contain new features or performance enhancements, but only bug fixes for the RH compatible kernel.
    I am not sure if you are going to need it, but it can be very useful in some cases. For example, if there is a bug in the RH kernel, and you don't want to run the UEK line as you want to stick to 100% strict RHEL compatibility, then Oracle can put the fix into this 3rd bug-fix only RH compatible kernel series.
    (For me, I've set up dual-boot UEK & standard RHEL kernels on my machines and never have never encountered issues or bugs.)

  • Oracle Forms New Features - Your input.  Supporting data types

    I am interested to know IF we were to support any new database types in Oracle Forms 11g, which types would you like supported and why. I'd also like to know if you are currently working around the absence of a database type.
    Please note, this is not any kind of commitment to support new data types in Oracle Forms applications but we are interested to know if there is demand and if so, for what types.
    Thanks
    Grant Ronald
    Oracle Forms Product Management
    p.s lets keep the thread focused on the topic so please don't post technical questions or comments about different new features - if you want to, start a new thread - thanks

    Hi Grant,
    support for the "new" - well they exists since 9iR1 ... 2001 - data types TIMESTAMP, TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE, INTERVAL YEAR TO MONTH and INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND would be very helpful.
    Currently it's not possible to use the Data Block Wizard to create a data block for table/view that contains one of these columns.
    (In Forms Builder 10.1.2.3 it fails with a strange error message ... iewbdbc_oracle_to_id ... C:\forms\101220\src\ie\iewbdb.c:724 ...)
    So, one has to create the data block and the items manually. The items have to be CHARS.
    Then forms is able to fetch and display these columns. The user can edit them as normal.
    A WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger can be used to make sure that the implicit conversion from CHAR to the "new" datatype works.
    For example, an INTERVAL YEAR TO MONTH column (b):
    declare
      l_invalid_interval exception;
      pragma exception_init(l_invalid_interval, -1867);
      l_invalid_month exception;
      pragma exception_init(l_invalid_month, -1843);
      l_dummy interval year(9) to month;
    begin
      l_dummy := to_yminterval(:block2.b);
    exception
      when l_invalid_interval
      then
        message('invalid interval');
        raise form_trigger_failure;
      when l_invalid_month
      then
        message('invalid month');
        raise form_trigger_failure;
      when others
      then
        message(error_text);
        raise form_trigger_failure;
    end;This nasty trick works for most of the "new" datatypes except with TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE.
    In Forms 10.1.2.3 the following WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger can (incorrectly!) fail:
    declare
      l_dummy timestamp with time zone;
    begin
      l_dummy := to_timestamp_tz(:block2.a);     
    end;It fails with "ORA-01804: failure to initialize timezone information", if the time zone is not like "-11:00", but like "EUROPE/PARIS". Don't know why...
    If we recode our trigger to make a round-trip to the database, it works:
    declare
      l_dummy timestamp with time zone;
    begin
      select to_timestamp_tz(:block2.a)
      into   l_dummy
      from dual;     
    end;We could avoid these tricks, if Forms (and Reports) would support these type natively.
    Thanks, Michael
    PS: The TIMESTAMP and INTERVAL data types should of course be supported as items, parameters, globals and record groups columns.

  • Oracle Forms 11g SSO with OID and IAM

    What versions of OID and Access Manager are required to get an Oracle Forms and Reports 11.1.1.2 application
    on Weblogic 10.3.2 configured for Oracle SSO using OID authentication?
    We want the OID to store and authenticate Users for username and password logins to the database, then
    ultimately by user Certificate authentication in OID. I have OID 11.1.1.2 installed and SSO enabled for Forms
    in Enterprise Manager.
    Is Access Manager required for Forms SSO with OID authentication to work or just to allow user interaction
    for registration and Password reset?
    Things mention OAM 10.4.3 and others talk about IAM 11g for Forms 11.1.1.2 SSO to work with OID.
    We did this back in Oracle Forms and OID 10g with JSP and LDAP to setup users but I understand 11g is
    different and IAM can help or is required for this type of SSO to work.
    Any help?

    Hi,
    According to Oracle's certification matrix found at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/fmw-11gr1certmatrix.xls, Oracle Forms 11.1.1.2 is not supported to use any Oracle Access Manager (OAM) version. OAM is a component of IAM. It is only supported with Oracle SSO 10.1.4.x. The best solution would be to upgrade the Forms and Reports environment to either 11gR2 (11.1.2.1) or to the latest 11gR1 patchset 11.1.1.7. Both versions are compatible with OAM 11.1.1.7.0 and OID 11.1.1.7.0 where only Forms 11gR2 (11.1.2.1) is compatible with OAM 11.1.2.0 and OID 11.1.1.7.0. That would be the best solution as we have ran into configuration problems in the past with using Oracle SSO 10.1.4.x.
    Since OID 11.1.1.2.0 is already installed, you should be able to patch it up to 11.1.1.7.0.
    For user authentication in OID, it is required to have OAM or Oracle SSO as both products use WebGate or mod_osso agents for authentication and authorization. For purposes of allowing end users to register accounts and password reset, you will either need to also install another IAM component called Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) or create a customized SSO login page that can be coded to perform these actions. I believe there are some examples available on the Internet.
    Thanks,

All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)

    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.

    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

    ] –o [  and at line # 102 make= /usr/ccs/bin/make to /usr/bin/make remove ccs and save the file
    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

  • How to install Oracle 10g on to Red Hat Linux 5 Server

    I'm new to both Linux and Oracle. I've been working on an installion of Oracle 10g on a Red Hat Linux 5 Server for about 2 weeks. I've been doing a lot of reading about installing Oracle on a Linux environment. I finally got to the installation portion and the Oracle Installer displayed a message that I had to have Red Hat 4 or 4 Enterprise to continue.
    How can Install Oracle 10g onto a Red Hat 5 Linux Server"? Is there an option that I can use to bypass the OS checking?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately there is no way to access metalink without a valid account. You could then just try to skip preinstall requisites with this clause:
    ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    or this method:
    Copy the oraparam.ini from the installation source install/oraparam.ini to /tmp directory.
    Edit the file /tmp/oraparam.ini so this file reads:
    After
    [Certified Versions]
    Linux=redhat-3,SuSE-9,redhat-4,UnitedLinux-1.0,asianux-1,asianux-2,redhat-5
    also, make sure you have these packages installed:
    # rpm -ivh gcc-c++-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm gcc-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm

  • ORA-3115 occuring after migration to Oracle 11.1.0.6 on Red Hat

    Our application has been running on Tru64 5.1b, Oracle v9 for years quite happily. Since migrating to Red Hat Linux, Oracle 11 we've encountering ORA-3115 errors sporadically from a Pro*C call.
    Our C executable maintains a connection to the database. Once the 3115 error occurs it occurs on every query to the database from that executable (other processes continue OK, something with the connection?). Our proram uses Pro*c queries with dynamic binds.
    There seems to be no pattern to the frequency with which the error occurs.
    The offending bit of code is usually:
    EXEC SQL SELECT
    UPDATE_INHIBITED,
    LAST_UPDATE_TIME,
    TO_CHAR(LAST_LIVE_UPDATE, 'HH24:MI:SS DD-MM-YYYY'),
    LAST_TRANSACTION,
    LAST_TRANSACTION_DG
    INTO
    :sql_update_inhibited,
    :sql_last_update,
    :sql_last_operational_update,
    :sql_last_trans,
    :sql_last_trans_dg
    FROM SET_DETAILS
    WHERE SET_ID = :sql_set_id;
    This code has been unchanged for years. The fact that it usually occurs here probably more because this is the first database call completed as part of a scheduled process.
    This problem is having an operational impact (as the updates do not occur) and I really need to get a resoltuion before the Christmas break.
    As I said we've just migrated to a new server. There may be configuation parameters that are not perfect. Any suggestions on what we could double check?
    Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas how I can work around this?
    Thanks,
    Beck

  • Oracle 10g/11g database use on UEK versus Red Hat kernel? How widely used?

    Greetings
    is there any official or semi-official information regarding how widely used is Oracle UEK to run Oracle 10g/11g database (RAC or single-node) versus running Oracle database on Red Hat Linux or on Oracle Linux with Red Hat kernel ?
    I am asking because at my customer site there is a perception that Red Hat (or Oracle Linux with Red Hat kernel) is much more widely used in production to run Oracle 10g/11g database and therefore it will provide better stability even if the performance may be somewhat reduced compared to Oracle UEK option.
    So I need some sort of approximate percentage numbers of how well is UEK used in Linux Oracle community to run Oracle 10g/11g databases.
    Many thanks.
    Yuri B

    The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence. Well, in my opinion, a higher market share does not reflect the quality or reliability of a product. Take MS Windows for example. Unfortunately, the reason for success is often not due to knowledge and experience, but rather due to fear and sheep effect or herd behavior.
    Perhaps you can use other arguments or questions to help you to make a decision, eg.:
    Oracle has a better understanding of what Oracle products require than Red Hat.
    Oracle takes full responsibility for the OS and Database, no finger pointing.
    Oracle tries to provide a better product than the RHEL kernel.
    The Oracle UEK kernel contains Oracle driver software, not available for RHEL 6 or later.
    Oracle updates are free of charge, RHEL requires a subscription.
    Oracle as a company is about 20 times bigger than Red Hat.
    There can be reasons that require the use of the original RHEL kernel, for instance if the vendor of a specific driver for your hardware demands it. But otherwise...

  • Red Hat Cluster Suite and Oracle RAC

    HI Guys,
    Our boss will plan to configure Red Hat Cluster Suite to replace to update oracle RAC.
    Are there some experienced expert to explain advantage and risk of Red Hat Cluster Suite v Oracle RAC 11.2
    Thanks
    Jin

    Hi,
    first of all Red Hat Cluster Suite cannot replace the RAC functionality. RAC is database Red Hat Cluster Suite, just provides clusterware. So all with what you will end up is a plain old failover cluster solution.
    So in maximum Red Hat Cluster Suite can replace the Oracle Clusterware. (But not below a RAC, since this is not supported and even with integration with other clusterware Oracle Clusterware will still be there).
    So what he will end up is also replacing RAC with single instance databases in a failover cluster solution, and with this will decrease a lot of RAC capabilities:
    => Rolling Upgrade (OS / Clusterware and some database patches)
    => Storage migration/consolidation
    => Fast failover (30 seconds vs. minutes).
    See www.oracle.com and you will find whitepapers with differences between failover clusters and RAC.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/failover-cluster-134770.pdf
    But even if there are other justifications to reduce availablity (which actually can only be costs), I still wonder, why he wants to replace Oracle Clusterware - the clusterware shipped with Oracle is far more mature than the one from the Red Hat cluster Suite.
    And there is no better integration for Oracle databases in clusterware than what Oracle clusterware can provide.
    Even more so, OCW is a full capable clusterware and you can build your own failover cluster solution for free.
    The same would have to be done if he replaces it with redhat cluster.
    PS: If someone is providing failover scripts for Oracle in Redhat clusters, it will be Redhat (but I think you have to write them yourself).
    Regards
    Sebastian

  • Oracle 10g on Red Hat Fedora

    I've downloaded Oracle 10g Express edition on to my computer running a Red Hat Fedora Linux OS. However having read the getting started page of the database setup and followed the instructions to open the Go To Database Home Page, on my applications menu section, I am greeted by a Unable to Connect to Server page. Followed by: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1.
    Has any one else had this problem? If so how can it be resolved?
    I have already turned off the firewall on my OS and it has made no difference. Is it Oracles fault in that they have not maintained this page on their website? Or is it a problem with the way my computer is set?

    If you were able to reach to the end of the installation, then make sure both your database and listener are up and running. OracleXE requires the database to be registered against the listener to have the http access enabled.
    From an OS prompt, ensure your environment variables are properly set,
    ORACLE_HOME=pathToYourOracleHome
    ORACLE_SID=XE #verify the instance name, xe or XE, it is case sensitive
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
    Then issue this command to verify the listener is up and running:
    lsnrctl status
    There you should see the http port at 8080 and the XE instance registered against the listener.
    And verify the database is working:
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> select status from v$instance
    You should see OPEN as the status.
    Please post the output of the above commands.

  • Calling web service from oracle forms 10g

    Problem Description:
    I'm following the steps as per the doc:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gr2/howto/webservicefromforms/ws_10_1_3_from_forms.html
    to create a java stub to call external web service and then use java importer in oracle forms to call this web service from oracle forms.
    WSDL for external web service used is http://gend:83/DesignService.svc?wsdl
    The service was developed by us.
    Calling the web service using JDeveloper works fine but when I complie in Oracle Forms it returns wrong number of types of arguments in call SENDHELLO.
    The code from oracle form to call web service is as below:
    DECLARE
    jo ora_java.jobject;
    xo ora_java.jobject;
    rv varchar2(2000);
    ex ora_java.jobject;
    str varchar2(100);

    WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
    ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
    message(Exception_.toString(ex));
    END;
    Any help/ideas on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
    Edited by: KE Nora Loera on Jun 1, 2012 1:24 PM

    My primary skill is PL/SQL but the only information I found on Oracle's site to call a web service from a 10g Form was creating a jar file and importing the java class. Since I don't want to ask our corporate IT to make changes on the UNIX box for the jar files I went a different route.
    I use UTL_HTTP.BEGIN_REQUEST to call a URL then load I load the data to a table as a CLOB since we have more than 4000 characters. Now I need to parse the XML and load it into a form. I have never done this so if there is a helpful site please let me know. I have looked at several sites but none do what I want.
    Thanks
