OracleAS Form Service with Portal Server

Hello,
I already have my Oracle 10g Forms running in my AS using the Forms Service. I am planning to merge all my web-based forms applications into the Portal. Would I be still able to use my Forms Services within the Portal?

thanksOracle Forms is best used against an Oracle database... so why on Earth would you want to use it against SQL Server?
Aside from that, Oracle Forms is old technology... you'd be better using Oracle Application Express (Apex) for producing web based apps.
If you must do things against an SQL Server database, you would need to set up heterogenous services connectivity (HS) and treat the SQL Server database as an external database.

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:

or at the documentation:

How can hide the word oracleas forms service in applet

my dears :
if I want to appear the name of our company in applete instead of this word oracleas forms service
how
thanks in advance

Hi,
Copy your image (either .gif or .jpg) in %devsuite_home%/forms/java for example for me it's : C:\oracle\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\java
Then in your formsweb.cfg point to your image begining with /forms :
# Forms applet parameter
background=/forms/java/logocca.gif
Restart your oc4j
Launch your application.
NB : The names are case sensitive, i.e /forms/java/logocca.GIF will not work
It's important to mention /forms/java/ because your c:/ is not seen by the web server

Oracle Forms Services: Forms -- Applets

Hi there, anyone of you worked with Oracle Forms Services before? I'm looking for users comments. Oracle says that there are no performance issues running the forms as applets but I was wondering if any one of you guys tried it.
Also, I was wondering what kind of web applications Oracle Forms Services was made for? I'm under the impression that it's more for private uses ( Inside a company ). Is it safe to run those applets on the web in commercial sites? Is it appropriate?
My impression is that the applets generated by Oracle FDorms Services are not meant for the worl wide web.
Please give me your thoughts on this.
Thanks!

In case if i am modifying the code as below I am getting error as 'page can have only one server tag'.

Using log4j with portal server

Hi,
I am trying to use log4j with Portal server 6.1 using log taglibs from jakarta.
Here is what i've done:
1. copy taglibs-log.jar in /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes
2. copy taglibs-log.tld in /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default/tld
3. put log statements in JSPs
for example:
<log:debug>This is body content.</log:debug>
<log:debug message="This is attribute content." />
4. /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes/log4j.properties contains

Oracle VM 3 with SUN SERVER X3

Dear All Experts,
Is it possible to run Oracle VM 3 with SUN SERVER X3 has only 2 hard disks using local storage?
If can, how to do it? please kindly share this experience?
Thanks and regards,
Vandy

Booting to a USB-thumb-drive won't be a redundant OS mirror but that sounds like a good idea & that would be one way to do it. Solid State USB drives are likely more reliable than HDD but they do also fail (or maybe wear out & become read-only). Worst case you hopefully could just reinstall the OS on a new USB and your data would still be recoverable.
Speaking of adding disks, if the BIOS/MB supports it you may also be able to add a USB-3.0 HDD. USB-2.0 may also be an option but would be slower. For my Dev environment I added multiple USB-3.0 7200rpm 4TB drives and they give me some piece of mind and provide decent performance for backups for my Dev environment (I clone to them to give extra layer of back up).
I don't know if you can mirror 2 USB drives nor have I tried removing them and rotating them but both might be options (haven't though much about nor tried to do either yet).

!!! Integration UWC Webmail with Portal Server

Hello There...
How can I integrate UWC Webmail with Portal Server. I"m using SJS Portal Server 6 2005Q1. I've configured a CHANNEL extending a IFRAME provider in order to open the webmail in the same window. But when I click on the "UWC Webmail" tab the Portal Server gets the user credentials and starts loading the webmail and stops without any error. If I open another window or tab it works proving the authentication process works fine.
Thanks in advance...
Jeff!

Hi Jeff,
Have you tried using the UWC channels that the portal ships out of the box?
Portal Server 6 2005Q1 ships with a channel - UWCMail. Add this channel to your desktop, and provide the Messaging server details and user credentials in the channel edit screen. This channel will display a list of emails and also provide links to open the UWC webmail.
Look at the "To Configure New Communications Express Channels" section of this guide - http://docs.sun.com/source/819-2201/index.html. The communications products (Messaging, Calendar, UWC) will have to configured as explained in this guide for the single signon to work.
Butwhen I click on the "UWC Webmail" tab the Portal Server gets the user credentials and starts loading the webmail and stops without any error.I'm not clear what you mean by this, so can't comment. A little more detail will help.

Calling web service from oracle forms fails with ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR

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://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConverter.asmx?wsdl
Calling the web service using JDeveloper works fine but from Oracle Forms returns ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR; Unable to call out to Java, Invalid object type for argument 1
The code from oracle form to call web service is as below:
DECLARE
jo ora_java.jobject;
rv ora_java.jobject;
ex ora_java.jobject;
outString varchar2(2000);
BEGIN
jo:= CurrencyConvertorStub.new;
--This will get the exchange rate from US Dollars to UK Sterling.
rv:= CurrencyConvertorStub.ConversionRate(jo,'CAD','USD');
message (float_.floatValue(RV));
EXCEPTION
WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
message('Unable to call out to Java, ' ||ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
outString := Exception_.toString(ex);
message(outString);
END;
Any help/ideas on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, it is the message line - so basically this call fails => rv:= CurrencyConvertorStub.ConversionRate(jo,'CAD','USD'); and control goes in the exception block
WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
message('Unable to call out to Java, ' ||ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
Below is the code from java stub that was generated using JDeveloper by using web services stub/skeleton and associating the WSDL
public Double ConversionRate(String FromCurrency, String ToCurrency) throws Exception
URL endpointURL = new URL(endpoint);
Envelope requestEnv = new Envelope();
Body requestBody = new Body();
Vector requestBodyEntries = new Vector();
String wrappingName = "ConversionRate";
String targetNamespace = "http://www.webserviceX.NET/";
Vector requestData = new Vector();
requestData.add(new Object[] {"FromCurrency", FromCurrency});
requestData.add(new Object[] {"ToCurrency", ToCurrency});
requestBodyEntries.addElement(toElement(wrappingName, targetNamespace, requestData));
requestBody.setBodyEntries(requestBodyEntries);
requestEnv.setBody(requestBody);
Message msg = new Message();
msg.setSOAPTransport(m_httpConnection);
msg.send(endpointURL, "http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConversionRate", requestEnv);
Envelope responseEnv = msg.receiveEnvelope();
Body responseBody = responseEnv.getBody();
Vector responseData = responseBody.getBodyEntries();
return (Double)fromElement((Element)responseData.elementAt(0), java.lang.Double.class);
