Problem in configuring Webutil

Question

Hello!!!
I have installed Oracle Developer Suite 10g on Windows XP. I want to configure Webutil but following the instructions located in on-line help and specifically in step 4 (signing the jar files) , there is not the file 'signer.properties'!!!
Where can I find it?

Hello ,
I downloaded , extracted and installed webutil 1.0.6. - in Windows XP - above the one installed during the Developer Suite R.2 installation. I downloaded and extracted the jacob_18.zip.
I followed the instructions on the webutil.html file on how to install .
The problem is that a message ORA-06508 appears when I push a button on a very simple form - which consists of just this button and necessary webutil components. I inserted the webutil.pll and subclassed the webutil.olb on the form.
The code of the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED is :
declare
a varchar2(500);
begin
a:=WEBUTIL_CLIENTINFO.Get_Date_Time;
end;
I tried , also the WEBUTIL_FILE.FILE_OPEN_DIALOG(dirname,null,'|All files|*.*|' ,'open') code with the same results....
Surely , the problem may originate from the following :
1) I can not import the java class called oracle.forms.webutil.ole.OleFunctions in the form .
The error message is : Exception ----- java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/jacob/com/ComFailException .
2) The Java bean 'oracle.forms.webutil.ole.OleFunctions ' does not appear on the webutil canvas. , An error message appears...cannot find the Java Bean named ' 'oracle.forms.webutil.ole.OleFunctions '
3) In the document the FORMS_BUILDER_CLASSPATH (it is the registry entry isn't ? ) is referenced to ' /forms/java/frmall.jar;/forms/java/frmwebutil.jar;/forms/java/jacob.jar'.
The above paths must be written as they are (I use Windows XP system) or they must be written with the full path (e.g. c:\oracle\product\devsuite10g\forms\java\frmall.jar) ?
Another problem about FORMS_BUILDER_CLASSPATH is that the length is 670 (exceeding 512 characters). What can I do for it?
4) The same as above with the logical/physical paths exist in the following , according to the help file:
- WEBUTIL_CONFIG parameter
- CLASSPATH
- the entry in 'j2ee/DevSuite/application-deployments/forms/formsweb/orion-web.xml ' .
In these situations which path should I write (the physical(whole path) or the logical (as they are in the help document))?
Thanks , a lot !!!!
