Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release 2 for Linux install help

I've downloaded the tar.gz file and extracted it. Im a linux newbie and dont know much about linux. I've installed several files already but in this particular case, I dont know how to install a program with a tar.gz format. Im using ubuntu by the way and I have oracle forms running on WINE. I want to install the linux version so it will run natively.

Hi,
First use gunzip utility to unzip .gz file. Once you are done, you will get a .tar file. Use tar -xvf to untar the file to a directory. It is similar to unzip.

Arun

  • How to install downloaded Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release 2 for linux

    Hi folks,
    I downloaded d2k6irelease2.tar (Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release
    2 for linux) from
    http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/forms/htdocs/linuxsoft.html
    I untar the file on my linux machine however the extracted files don't
    seem to contain any installing program. I didn't find products.jar in the
    files and there are no script to install the software. I read the attached
    doc, however it only assumes that the installation is from CD-ROM. The doc
    doesn't help anything for this downloaded software. I wonder if anyone
    here know how to install it. Thank you so much.
    Best regards,
    Kai Huang

    There should be a text based installer in the /orainst sub-
    directory
    In that directory, just run the script:
    ./orainst
    The installer seems to require libXm.a, which wasn't included in
    my RH 7.1 installation, so I had to install the motif-
    development libraries before the full install would complete
    successfully.

  • Oracle Forms Developer/services 6i Release2 for window NT

    Hi,
    When I Log on SQL*PLUS the system print this error (The program PLUS80W do error in ORA80.DLL please restart your pc.) why this error is?

    Install Oracle Client again on your PC.

  • Forms Developer/Services 6i Download for Windows 98

    In the oracle website download directory, there's only one option to download Forms Developer 6i for Windows, and it's for NT. Will this exe also work for Windows 98?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, Syed.
    One more question...Prior to installing 6i on your Windows 98 pc, did you also install 8i personal edition? That's what I have right now. Does 6i work okay with 8i?
    Thanks again.

  • Oracle 8.1.5 for linux, install help.

    Does anyone have a successful installation of Oracle 8.1.5
    running on Red Hat 6.0? I have tried to install it but, I can't
    get the installer to run. I get java errors when I run,
    runInstaller. I have installed jre1.1.6. Any help would be
    appreciated.

    We have gotten it running on two RH6 machines. Took a little
    extra work.
    Briefly...
    * Make sure you use the latest JRE, and try using the one
    with native threads (if not you will have to hand edit the
    netasst script and remove the -native flag)
    * For some reason some of the libs that get installed are
    zero length. Find the thread on this forum where someone posted
    some sample code to recreate these. If I remember right its the
    libjni library. It is a very short easy compile.
    * Make sure you got lots of RAM (128 min) and double that in
    swap
    * Watch for binaries that get installed without the execute
    bit set. For instance I think tnslsnr is one of them, as well as
    SQLPlus. I can't remember exactly, but that's one other problem
    to watch out for.
    So far things here are working. I even tried a little java in a
    stored procedure. My latest issue is trying to get the PROC
    samples to compile.

  • Oracle Forms Developer 6i Release 2 for NT

    Hello,
    I have a couple of questions. I just downloaded the Oracle9iAS
    Forms Services and Oracle Forms Developer 6i Release 2 for NT.
    Is it a trial version? Does it expire after a certain time. Or
    is it a limited feature version. I couldn't find any info about
    this on the Oracle website.
    Regards,
    Tam

    AS with all the downloads on otn this is a full version with no
    time limit. But you are under the OTN license which says that
    you have to purchase the product if you are developing
    production applications with it. Its free for evaluation and
    personal education purposes.

    When will Data Services 3.x be released for Linux 64-bit?
    We have a quite large installation currently but want to upgrade to DS 3.1 on SUSE Linux and Oracle and would really like to run it on 64-bit.

    Data Services 3.2 targeted for this summer will natively support Linux 64-bit on Red Hat and SUSE.

  • Where to buy the study guide for Oracle Forms Developer 9i or 10g

    Hi, I am learning Oracle Forms Developer Build Internet Application. I am comfortable with SQL and PL SQL. I need authenticate Oracle Study Guide for Forms Developer which will help me in learning basics to advance level but I cannot afford the classroom course, it is beyond my pocket capacity. So I would like to know if Oracle sell only the study guides. I inquired at Book Shops in my area but did not get any help.

    I just went through Oracle Press and Sybex websites and it seems none of the books available suits my requirement. Not everyone can afford class room training unless it is fully or partially sponsored by their employers. And I don't understand what people learn in just 5 days.All the information you need to learn the products and pass the certification exams is available in the freely available Oracle documentation. Sure, it's nice to have the Oracle University training or exam prep books which is often specifically focused on the topics on the certification exam, rather than having to combine data from a few different manuals. But there the free Oracle documentation is pretty darned complete and you'll likely learn more from working through that documentation than you would from the Oracle University material just because you've got to do the work to put things together.

  • Oracle Forms Developer 11g - OAF - ADF ????

    Hi
    i am a newbie  in these terms and hence don't know much of the difference ....
    I completed OCA developer and now i don't know what to choose next ???
    what i have seen online about next certification path is
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=5001&get_params=p_exam_id:1Z0-151&p_org_id=&lang=
    that is Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g: Build Applications with Oracle Forms
    also i saw some hype about ADF and OAF well being newbie i dont know what is the difference or either i can't find each of these in the Certification lists.
    what i assumed is OAF is the same as Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g: Build Applications with Oracle Forms
    but where is the certification of ADF ??? any link 
    also what to choose regardless of what i have in mind.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Hassan Siddique

    Hassan,
    OAF is not forms and it's not ADF either. These are different products targeting different markets.
    OAF (Oracle Application Framework - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
    Oracle Application Framework (OA Framework or OAF) is a proprietary framework developed by Oracle Corporation for application development within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS)
    ADF (Oracle Application Development Framework - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
    In computing, Oracle Application Development Framework, usually called Oracle ADF, provides a commercial Java framework for building enterprise applications. It provides visual and declarative approaches to Java EE development. It supports rapid application development based on ready-to-use design patterns, metadata-driven and visual tools.
    Forms (Oracle Forms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
    Oracle Forms is a software product for creating screens that interact with an Oracle database. It has an IDE including an object navigator, property sheet and code editor that uses PL/SQL. It was originally developed to run server-side in character mode terminal sessions. It was ported to other platforms, including Windows, to function in a client–server environment. Later versions were ported to Java where it runs in a Java EE container and can integrate with Java andweb services.
    The primary focus of Forms is to create data entry systems that access an Oracle database.
    For more information you can use google and search for "oracle oaf" or "oracle adf" or "oracle forms"

    Hi,
    May I know why you need to start admin server in both the physically separated server. If you want to achieve HA solution for admin server, then do the clustering in such a way that Admin server will run in Active-Passive mode.
    You can refer the same document that you have mentioned.
