Oracle forms builder 11g on linux

I OPEN A FMB WITH FORMS BUILDER 11G ON SUSE LINUX BUT THE PROGRAM UNITS(PROCEDURES,FUNCTIONS AND TRIGGERS) ARE CORRUPT.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM?

Do you have metalink access? If so read note 969422.1 as this sounds exactly like your problem.
Basically it's a problem with the NLS_LANGUAGE you are using (basing on some cyrillic characters in your "edited by" text I am assuming you are using a russian nls_language).
also please turn off your caps lock ;)

Help! My Oracle Form builder 11g can't conect Oracle database(11g/10g)

I have installed
1.Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Standard edtion
2.WebLogic Server (10.3.3)
3.Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer (11.1.1.3.0)
after install I try run the test.fmx is ok!
But I want used form builder 11g connect my database 11g(installed at same host),
It connect appeared ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name.
I search all about middleware folder in my PC , then find two tnsnames files and two sqlnet.ora
the sqlnet.ora content is
#==============================================================
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
#==============================================================
the tnsnames.ora content is(copy same content from oracle database 11g's tnsnames.ora)
#==============================================================
ORCL =

#==============================================================
The I update all of my PC's tnsnames.ora like above string,but it always not work
somebody help me,thanks!!

Ronald,
I was able to connect to a database with Forms 11g by adding an Environment variable TNS_ADMIN and pointing this to the directory where the sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files are located. I was unable to find a Net Configuration Assistant in Forms 11g and placing a copy of .ora files in the /%11G HOME/NETWORK/ADMIN didn't work either. Only after I added the environment variable was I able to connect.
There might be a "More Appropriate" solution, but this is what worked for me. We are just now testing 11g, but are still developing with 10g R2.
Hope this helps,

Is Oracle Forms builder version 10.1.2.0.2 certified with Windows 7 ?

Hello
I need to change my old PC that is running 32 bit XP.
On this PC , I have installed Oracle Forms builder 10.1.2.0.2
I need to keep this version of forms as my customer is running the same version on linux.
I wish to upgrade my PC and install Windows7 (32 bit ) . Is Windows7 certified with Oracle Form builder 10.1.2.0.2?
Thanks
John Hall

Hello Sunny,
I just asked that same question in a service request a few days ago and got this answer from Oracle Support:
Question "Could you please also check if Forms/Reports Builder *10g* (10.1.2.3.0) are being certified for Windows 7 (32- and 64-bit)? As far as I know Forms/Reports Builder 10g are currently not certified for Win7 at all."
ODM Answer / Action Plan:
"According to product management and http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gR2/clientsod_forms10gR2.html , Windows 7 is certified as a client platform for 10.1.2.3, however production runtime deployments on Windows 7 is not supported for this version. You can build your Forms applications using Forms Builder on Windows 7 and test it, but when it is time to deploy it in a multi user environment, it needs to be deployed on a supported production deployment. So it should be ok to install iDS 10.1.2.3 on Windows 7 and develop your applications. The installation should be according to How to Install Developer Suite 10.1.2.3 on Windows Vista (Doc ID 559067.1). The note is for Vista, but the instructions apply for Windows 7 as well."
So I'd assume Windows 7 to be supported as well with Forms and Reports Builder 10.1.2.3.0.

Andreas

Can I use Oracle Forms Services 11g with Database 9.2.0.8.0?

Hi everyone.
My department is evaluating development tools in order to build new web applications, and also possibly to migrate current applications buit with Oracle Forms 6.0.5.34.0. Our database is Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit.
We have read that the newest Oracle Forms version is Oracle Forms Services 11g. Is Oracle Forms Services 11g compatible with Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit? or would we have to migrate our RDBMS to Oracle 11g?
If our database is compatible, what would we need to develop and deploy applications with Oracle Forms Services 11g?
Many thanks in advance.

Wheter it's compatible or not: Database 9.2.0.8 is in sustaining support which means you won't get patches for it. So even if it is compatible I'd opt to upgrade to a newer version, as I wouldn't feel comfortable having a not-supported product out in production.
Have a look at the certification matrix for supported configurations
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/fmw-11gr1certmatrix.xls
As for the requirements; most things can be found on the forms homepage on OTN:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/
or at the documentation:

I want to compile an EBS 11i forms. The EBS version is Oracle Applications : 11.5.10.2.
My question is where can I find the installer for Oracle form builder to compile my .pll file?
Best Regards

If you want to download and install Developer 6i to your Windows client, then here is the direct link --> http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/forms/6i_rel2_xp.zip
You will need to recompile the form again on your server if the OS is Linux/Unix by referring to the docs referenced above by AsifMuhammad

Oracle Forms Builder 10g release 2 documentation?

I'm trying to locate a book about Oracle Forms Builder 10g release 2. I'm needing a beginner's guide. I've seen the advanced techniques one, but I can't seem to find one for someone that is just starting out. Does anyone have any suggestions?

There are a couple of books by Albert Lulushi that will give you the basics you can build upon. These are older books, but the concepts they present are still valid.
<ul>
<li>Developing Oracle Forms Applications (Aug 1996)
<li>Oracle Forms Developer's Handbook (Dec 2000)
</ul>
Probably more helpful would be some online tutorials. Again, some of these are a little old, but the concepts are still valid for Forms 10g and 11g.
Although a few of the following links are for older Forms versions, the concepts are still valid across all Forms versions.
<ul>
<li>A Tutorial on Oracle9i Forms and Reports
<li>Tutorial for Oracle10g Forms / Reports
<li>iSelfSchooling - Basic Introduction to Forms
<li>Oracle Forms 10g: Demos, Tips and Techniques
</ul>
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)

Forms Builder 11g R1 Download

Can someone please tell me exactly where I can download Windows 64 bit Forms Builder 11g, Release ONE (an actual link would be awesome)?
Weblogic is aleady installed, as well as Forms Builder 11g R2. The problem is, our system is running Forms 11gR1 and the forms creaed by the R2 builder will not compile on the R1 system, hence the need for Forms Builder 11g R1.
I spent most of yesterday afternoon trying to find it on Oracle's sight and before throwing the computer thru the nearest window in frustration, I thought I would pose the question to the forum.
Thanks

Just to clarify what you are saying for everyone, there is no "Forms Builder" download. The Forms Builder is an integral part of a Fusion Middleware installation. It is not a stand-alone product any longer. So, don't expect to find a link that says something like "Forms Builder 11 - Download".
To download "Fusion Middleware 11 - Portal, Forms, Reports, Discoverer", you will need to go to: https://edelivery.oracle.com
Once in EDelivery and having responded to the licensing and export agreements, choose the product you want from the list. In your case, " +Oracle Fusion Middleware+ " then choose your platform. This will display a list of available products in that line. If, for example you are on a 64bit Windows platform, you would need to click on " +Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)+ ". This will display another list. In that list, look for " +Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit)+ ". There will be 4 parts to the download. You will need all 4.
Keep in mind that this is just the base release of the product. Meaning that this is version 11.1.1.2. The current patched version is 11.1.1.6. To get the latest patch you will need access to MyOracleSupport.

Bug in Oracle Forms Builder 6i?

When converting from binary to text in Oracle Forms Builder, the conversion is inexplicably dropping a WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD trigger for one of my data blocks.
I am running Oracle Forms Builder 6i on Windows XP with the latest patches. I couldn't find anything in the bug search that resembled this problem. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I just tested this in 10.1.2.2 on XP and could not reproduce the problem. It is unlikely that this is a bug and if it was, it is very likely that it was already corrected.
Ensure that you are using 6.0.8.26. If you are using Oracle Applications you should be using 6.0.8.27.
Also, Error Correction Support for stand-alone Forms 6.0.x users ended long ago, which means that a patch cannot be provided for version 6.x.

How to insert special character from Oracle form builder 10g

Dear all,
I need help. how to insert special character like 'Superscript or Subscript ' from oracle form builder 10g. I had try in Oracle form builder 6i with press ALT+ASCII code in the text item and it work, but in the oracle form builder 10g this method doesn't work... would you like to help me...somebody please...
Best Regard,
Dedy P.T.

What do you mean by insert ... from Forms Builder? Do you mean you want to add it as text in a string of pl/sql code or as part of boiler plate text (label) or a value on the Property Palette?
For special characters you would need set NLS_LANG to something that would support the characters you want to use. For the Builder to see the change, you would need to set NLS_LANG to something like:
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
This can be done in the Windows Registry or system. As I mentioned, this will only apply to the Builder and will have nothing to do with a running form. For running forms you would need to set this in default.env. As for things like super and sub scripts, these are font formats and not necessarily characters. For the most part, I don't believe these are supported in Forms.

Pls Help: View Crystal Report Via Oracle Form Builder

Hi!!
I want to know how to view the .rpt report (report made from Crystal Report) via Oracle Form Builder. I've to do it in my project. If you know, please tell me.
Thanks in advance,

I don't know how does crystal reports work, and I would guess you should ask the crystal guys to help you with this. find out if they have a command line interface that you can invoke from the host command in forms.
We can help you do it with Oracle Reports though :-)

Oracle Forms Builder 10g Questions

Good day everyone,
I want to start off by saying that I'm very new to Oracle Forms Builder (it was dumped on my table about a month ago) and I'm having some issues I need resolved in order to complete a project for a client.
I'm looking mainly for documentation or resources that will show me how to do the following in Oracle Forms Builder 10g:
* Use either the ENTER button or mouse click to navigate between mandatory fields in a form (currently only TAB works)
* Populate a field[s] after pressing a search button based on a SQL query
* Populate a field[s] on launch based on a SQL query
* Throw a warning message if an SQL query returns with a specific result
* Populate a drop down menu based on a SQL query (ie only show valid options to user)
* Remove static highlighting (fields should only be highlighted if necessary, which is never on this particular form)

I've been able to reduce my problem down to the fact that Oracle Forms Builder 10g is not configured correctly on my machine for my environment. I can seem to get Oracle Forms Builder to see my libraries. When I load the form I'm working on I get the following error:
FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:utlf_gui
Source Object: TOOLBAR_MDI
+... (many more of the one above)+
I press ok and get the following error:
FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library sdsl. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
+... (many more of the one above)+
From my various searches on the internet I've learned that this is because Oracle Forms Developer can not find the listed PL/SQL libraries and I should check my Environmental variables. I've set up two Environmental variables with the following:
Forms_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
Forms90_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
I created both Environmental variables because there wasn't any consistency on the sites I was checking to which was needed.
Also if I try to attack a PL/SQL library I get the following error:
Attached library name <name> contains a non-portable directory specification. Remove path?
I press yes or no and get the following error:
PDE-PLI038 Cannot open file for use as a PL/SQL library.
Any help is much appreciated.

How can I make OPAC in Oracle Forms Builder

Hello everyone,
I'm developing a Library Management System as my project in my Oracle subject.
Can anyone tell me how to make OPAC module of Library management system in Oracle forms builder.
I don't have any idea because this is my first encounter in this system.
Thanks.
I really appreciate all your help.
God bless ^^

Hi,
Simple, using current values you can create new id , 'old' and name so oracle will create record, now refresh block, next using next_record in loop you can find record,erase one and refresh block.
