Performance tool for Oracle Forms 4.5

Hi All,
We are migrating from 11.0.3 to 11.5.10.2 but still have to support 11.0.3 instances till GoLive of 11.5.10.
Does anyone know about any performance measurement tool that I can use to measure the performance of old Forms 4.5.
I see that we can use FRD to record session data and also there is a feature in forms 6i to convert that FRD log into html or csv files for performance data, but couldnt find anything like that for Forms 4.5. I can generate a primitive FRD log for Forms 4.5, but dont think its useful from performance perspective.
If you have any ideas, please reply..
Thanks,
Priyank.

We need to monitor DB and forms server's performance from client perspective, so we are installing Virtual machines on all client sites. Measuring DB performance is straight forward, we can create timed sessions and see the difference in query time responses.
But for Forms 4.5 it is a little tricky, so I was looking for some performance tool that I can use to measure forms server performance either from client or server side.
Thanks,
Priyank.

Is there any impact analysis tool for Oracle Forms and Reports

Hi All
We are curretly looking at tools available to do impact analysis in Oracle Forms and Reports. This is for the maintainance of a large Oracle application developed using forms and reports 10g. We use Oracle Designer but only to maintain the db structure and not for forms and reports generation. Our intension is to find out the impact of db model changes, stored procedure changes in Oracle Forms and Reports. Please suggest any tools that are currently used for this purpose.
I remember manually maintaining the CRUD matrix for Oracle Forms and Reports for maintainance purpose. CRUD matrix will have the list of all the tables which are affected by the module. But this is a manual activity and hence the responsibility is with the dev team to keep the document updated. Please suggest if there is any alternative to this way which can be more effecient and less error prone...
I also wonder how these are done in Oracle ERP? how the apps team in oracle is maintaining the forms and reports?
Thnaks in Advance
Mahesh Mathew

Quest (the makers of TOAD) have a tool called SQL Impact which gathers data from forms, reports, triggers, packages etc.
FormsMate is a simple, cheap alternative for comparing or searching in forms.

Alternatively, you can export forms to xml (with iff2xml90.bat) and reports to jsp (with rwconverter) and simply grep those and your sql scripts. There are grep tools for windows if you need.

Can some tell me where to find the documentation for Oracle forms 6i,11g

Hi Everyone
Can someone please tell me where to find the online documentation for Oracle Forms 11g and 6i .
Thanks in advance
Gautam

Most of the design time documentation is included in the Design-time tools (Builders). Specifically in the Builder Online Help. This information is no longer available on a web site. As for Forms 6i, hardly any of that information is available on the Oracle site any longer. That version has been obsolete for several years. You can find some of the old deployment documentation for 6i (6.0.8):

Frm-40505:ORACLE error: unable to perform query in oracle forms 10g

Hi,
I get error frm-40505:ORACLE error: unable to perform query on oracle form in 10g environment, but the same form works properly in 6i.
Please let me know what do i need to do to correct this problem.
Regards,
Priya

Hi everyone,
I have block created on view V_LE_USID_1L (which gives the error frm-40505) . We don't need any updation on this block, so the property 'updateallowed' is set to 'NO'.
To fix this error I modified 'Keymode' property, set it to 'updatable' from 'automatic'. This change solved the problem with frm-40505 but it leads one more problem.
The datablock v_le_usid_1l allows user to enter the text (i.e. updated the field), when the data is saved, no message is shown. When the data is refreshed on the screen, the change done previously on the block will not be seen (this is because the block updateallowed is set to NO), how do we stop the fields of the block being editable?
We don't want to go ahead with this solution as, we might find several similar screens nad its diff to modify each one of them individually. When they work properly in 6i, what it doesn't in 10g? does it require any registry setting?
Regards,
Priya

Request for Oracle forms & Reports 12c: Free runtime in GlassFish like ADF

a) FREE RUNTIME LICENSE IN GLASSFINS FOR ORACLE FORMS & REPORTS IN GLASSFISH
Hello, we are Oracle Partners and we are using oracle since Oracle 7.3.4.
I remember a beta of Oracle Forms, having the functionality to set properties in all objects, just like Visual Basic, including lines, etc. But that beta was rejected and I see Oracle had leave Oracle Forms as just a database client.
In this moment there is a free light version of ADF.
I will like you think in that possibility.
Think in this, if you want to program a small software, I mean 20,000 U$, and the runtime is 40,000 U$, then this doesn't makes sense.
Oracle is pushing small customers toward Visual Studio,
I think the idea of a free runtime will benefit Oracle in two ways.
For a 20,000 U$ software or less, you but Visual Studio, Sql Server 2012 is enough, not as Oracle, but is enough for that small softwares,
this means if you give a free runtime of oracle forms & reports (like adf is doing)
1) you will win selling development licenses and 2) selling Oracle Standard One licenses.
If you don't do you will lose developement licenses and Oracle will continue losing the small databases market, because this is not like 10 years ago, Sql Server and other databases had improved, and the hardware too .
2) THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LINUX MORE EASY TO INSTALL & AN EASY DESKTOP FOR THAT LINUX
The other point I want to give feedback is linux, it's too related to oracle forms & reports improvements for small business
Is the development of an easier Linux, to use 1) for development 2) for production.
In the same way you don't wait 60 seconds in a normal web page to load, people don't like Linux because is not like Microsoft Windwos or Macintosh; so if Oracle wants to move to people to use linux to use Oracle Forms or Oracle Database, I think Oracle must create a more simple and tested installation for both customers and developers,
- less is more, so the installation must have only what normally is needed.
- you should not need to use command line for most operations, this should be an exception, normal users must do things by themselves.
Thank you for your time

I don't know that it will break things, but I can say that the safest thing to do would be to use separate WLS installations for each product. This may sound like overkill, but each product (ADF, Forms/Reports) have their own idiosyncrasies and requirements with respect to versions and patching, and trying to mix and match them in the same WLS installation is not, in my opinion, something that's worth undertaking.
I have the very setup I describe (separate WLS installations for ADF apps and Forms/Reports apps), and it's working with no problems.

John

You can enable tracing at multiple levels using the DBMS_MONITOR package. The following link shows how to enable session tracing: [Application Tracing Tools|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/sqltrace.htm#CHDFCGAE]
You can then use a tool like TKPROF or TRCSESS to aggregate the trace data into more readable files for analysis.

Setup FORMS_PATH for Oracle Forms 10g in windows7

Hi,
Please kindly advise the regedit path to set the FORMS_PATH variable at windows for Oracle Forms 10g?
Should it be HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > ORACLE?
If yes, is it the unique path? since I cannot create folder for 'ORACLE'.
Thanks,
CY

If you installed the product following the instructions found in MOS Note 559067.1 the registry key will have already been created for you. It will be a sub to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\<???>
Find this in your system and look at the contents of each key below "Oracle". It should be obvious which one belongs to Forms as there will be numerous FORMS_xxxxx entries there.

Searching for a Reporting Tool for Oracle 11g

Hello,
I have created several OLAP-Cubes with the Analytic Workspace 11.1.0.7.0B on the Oracle Database 11g. Now I need a Tool for Creating some Reporting. I have Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-In Version 10.1.2.3 for Microsoft Excel. I have installed it and I have a Connection to the Database. But on the Query-Assistent, I can't see my Measures and Dimensions. I guess it is because of the Version.
My Questions are:
- Is there any BI Spreadsheet in Version 11?
- Is there any other Reporting-Possibility with another Tool for Oracle 11g? I couldn't find anything yet.
I am very happy, if there is anyone who can answer my questions.

I have no knowledge of BI publisher but if you install OBIEE then you will have option to install BI publisher also. You can download OBIEE from here.
After installation you can look at following post to see the set up required to access olap cubes.

Config Lab tool for Oracle CC&B Package

Guys please help me out in this.
Thanks and Regards
sayantan

Sayantan,
There is (unfortunately) no silver bullet for your requirement.
Here is a good blog article on the different options available.
https://blogs.oracle.com/theshortenspot/entry/configlab_versus_bundling_vers
Implementations use variations and combinations of the 3 tools that are available, coupled with 3rd party migration tools (like vss). The strategy for an implementation's development-to-production life cycle will vary based on a multitude of factors. Skill set of the IT shop, what tools they are used to, internal audit procedures, etc.
Hope the article provides some food for thought!

1) First i install Forms Server and Reports Server, for that i need to define following env variables
$ORACLE_HOME is /home/oracle/forms6i
$ORACLE_BASE is /home/oracle
i am defining them in .profile file in oracle account.
2) Apply Patch 8
3) Install Application Server with Minimal Installation
