Replacing a running FMX with a new one

Hi,
I thought I remembered a post where Frank or Grant discussed what happens when a running fmx is recompiled. I'm just looking for that explanation.
Here's what's happening to us. We're running EBusiness suite 11.5.10 and the developers just love to compile in new forms during the day, as well as the CUSTOM.pll. Occasionally when one of these forms is compiled and someone is using the old version, the user gets kicked out of the form and then any other user that tries to use that form later gets an FRM-92050. The fix is to stop the forms server, forms metrics and forms load balancing, then recompile the form and CUSTOM.pll, then restart the forms services. Occasionally it even takes dropping everything including the database.
I was just wondering what caused this with forms so I could enlighten my developers.
Thanks!
Mark

Not sure what happens, but it sounds like you have your MMAP variable set so the fmx can be replaced while Forms is running. This is not recommended in a production environment, since it requires forms to use lots more memory on your system. With the problems you describe, I'll bet the Forms server and the other parts assume it is set to the default value of True or 1.
If you set the MMAP to False or zero, your developers could no longer screw up the production environment.
Just search this forum for MMAP. In Forms 6 it is FORMS60_MMAP. In 9 it is FORMS90_MMAP, and in 10g it is just FORMS_MMAP.

  • HT4889 Replacing System hard drive with a new one. How to get everything over to the new boot drive?

    Replacing System hard drive with a new one. How to get everything over to the new boot drive? Should I use Carbon Copy or does apple have a better untility to do this?
    I can't get my current system drive (OSX 10.8.3) to start on the first try. I always have to shut down and restart again to finally see the Apple logo.
    Have used disc utility to repair the disc and permissions several times and that works. The next time I boot up, it works fine and I get the apple logo, but then the second time I boot up, it's back to the blank screen again and it only boots after the second try.  I have tried this repair three different times now always with the same result. Works right the first try (after the repair) then from the second time on it doesn't work. I just get the white screen until I reboot a second time.
    Thinking I should change drives but what's the easist and best way to move everything over to the new drive so it will boot correctly with all my data on it. This is the system drive for a Pro Tools 10HD setup. MacPro 3,1 with 16 gigs ram and OSX10.8.3 on it.
    Thanks for any help!

    If you have a time machine back up of your current drive you can do this
    Shut down your computer, install the new drive. While the computer is off plug in the external hard drive that you have your time machine back up on. Hold Option key while the computer turnes on, let go of the option key once you get a grey screen. Shortly after you'll see  a list of bootable drives, select the one that has your time machine back up on it and boot into that drive.
    From there go into disk utility, format your new drive too, osx extended journaled ( I think, double check that, its been awhile since ive had to do this), hit format
    Exit disk utility and then you can use time machine to copy all your exisit data to the new hhd and then your pretty much done.
    There is also a program called Carbon Cloner that will do esentially the same thing however I've never uesed it.

  • Hi how are you i want to replace my iphone 4 with a new one. But i am in Darwin,there is no any apple stores. So where can i send my phone for replacement and how much for that?

    Warranty and Support are only valid in the country of origin.  You will need to take the device to whatever country it originally came from.
    Apple will not accept shipments from outside the country nor will they return it to an address outside the country.

  • I wanted to know if i were to come into an Apple store, would you be able to replace my home button with the new one that i bring in?

    I wanted to know if i were to come into an Apple store, would you be able to replace my home button with the new one that i bring in?

    Nope, since no one here works for Apple I doubt they would let us behind the counter or use their tools.
    Do a google search to locate your local store and get a phone number-then call and ask.

  • How do you replace a time capsule with a newer one

    How do you replace a time capsule with a newer one?

    LOL.. pull the old one out.. put the new one in. Setup the new one.. do not copy setting from the old one.. it is better to start over and never copy configuration files.. although you might get away with it.
    Plug the old TC into the new one.. change it to bridge mode.
    You can then access and copy old backups to the new TC if you want. Although IMHO just keep the old TC for 6months. .then wipe it and sell it or use in different role. Do start clean fresh backups on the new TC.
    If that is all useless. ask the specific question and we can try for a specific answer.

    No.  but you can sell it privately and use the proceeds towards a newer used model.

  • If I replace my old iMac with a new one can I burn DVDs on an external drive using Mountain Lion or Toast?

    My 2006 iMac is getting a bit long in the tooth and I was thinking of replacing it with a new one. However, Mac have not included an optical drive and I back up my photographs on DVD as well as external hard drives. I also supply DVDs of my work to friends etc.
    Will I be able to burn to an external drive using Mountain Lion or other software such as Toast? Does the burn option still exist on the new machines?

    Hello,
    You shouldn't have any problem, if you do just try Burn...

  • Replacing old hard drive with a new one. HP ENVY DV7 7230us laptop

    I am trying to replace my old hard drive with a new one. For some reason it won't do it. I want to perform a clean install with the recovery disks. It seems the only way I can do this is to clone the old one with the new. I have attempted several times and wasted a lot of time trying to use my new drive. Is HP preventing me from doing this for some reason? Is there a work around for this?

    Do you know anything about this? Now I am having problems installing the original win8 operating system, (purchased the 3 disk set) on the original hard drive, Toshiba 750g.. It installs up to updating updates but hangs at 13%. The reinstall hasn't even finished. Getting very frustrated. Your assistance is very appreciated.

  • Replacing a old photo with a new one.

    Using iPhoto right now, would this be something that is easy in Aperture, will switch tomorrow if it works better. A few years back I imported some of my photos off of a photo cd that came with my prints. Now I am scanning the negs at a higher resolution than they supplied on the photo cd. My question is.. is there anyway to replace the old photos with the new photos so that all of my faces, places, dates, keywords etc. will remain intact?

    Also make sure you've renamed the new file exactly the same as the old file, same case, format, etc.

  • Replacing my old iphone with a new one, need guidance/help please

    Hello fellow iPhone users.
    This is my first post on these message boards ever so please excuse me if this has already been discuessed before.
    Recently a friend of mine dropped my iphone pretty badly and it got scratched up except for the screen however he offered to replace it for me by buying me a new one. I insisted he didnt need to but now its too late because he already opened the box. My question is, what is the process I have to do to activate my new iPhone and deactivate my old one? Can someone explain to me the steps involved in this process?
    Also, how can I transfer all my contacts that are only on my iPhone to my computer so that I can transfer my contacts back again to my new phone? Also, how can I transfer all my bookmarks on my older iPhone to my comptuer so that I can send them to my new phone? Is there any clear cut easy way to do this process? Any help is much appreciated.
    Essentially, what I want to do is restore all my settings, text messages, email settings, wifi hot spots, bookmarks, images etc etc on to my new iPhone while restoring my older iPhone to its blank factory condition.
    Thanks a bunch

    iphonefan1,
    To transfer your information from your old iPhone to your new iPhone, you are going to want to do a few things:
    1) Backup any information on the old iPhone to your computer. You can use Windows Address book or Outlook (2003 or 2007) to backup contacts and Internet Explorer to backup your bookmarks. You will need to import any pictures you have taken on the iPhone to your computer (they do not sync) or email them if you would like them saved. Sync your old iPhone with iTunes so that it will make a backup of your text messages and other preference information.
    This article describes what information can be directly synced from your iPhone to the computer:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306071
    2) Take your SIM card out of your old iPhone and put it into the new iPhone. This takes all of your ATT account information to the new iPhone so that you will not have to run through a full activation again. You will have to run through a mini-activation, but all of your information will already be set up.
    3) Connect the new iPhone into your computer. As part of the mini-activation process, iTunes will ask you if you want to restore your iPhone from the backup. If you say yes, then it will use the preferences from your old iPhone and put them on the new iPhone. You can then sync any information (contacts, bookmarks, photos, etc.) that you backed up on the computer from the old iPhone to the new iPhone.
    This article will help you import the data on your computer to the iPhone:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305741
    4) Once you are confident that all of your information has been transferred from the old iPhone to the new one, you can restore the old iPhone and that will put the software back to factory settings. That will also erase all of your old data. (This process cannot be undone, so please make sure you do not need any information off the old iPhone before you restore.)
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I replace a *.default profile with a new one?

    I had several problems with a laptop being infected with malware. As a result FireFox would not open and thus I couldn't export the bookmarks before reformating the drive. Before reformatting the drive I copied the FireFox files in user/appdata/mozilla/firefox/ both the Local and Roaming subfolders to another drive. I installed FF 4 after the reformat, replaced the *.default files in the new profile with those I saved from the old installation and got the error message " . . all ready running."

    Delete the '''parent.lock''' file, if it exists in that Profile.

  • How to replace an old DC with a new one with out to much work

    Without having to unjoin and rejoin all the clients to the new domain?
    Basically my company has an old Server 2003 R2 standard and we are getting a new server machine with a 6 core E5 Xeon that will have Server 2012 R2 standard installed. I will be transferring all the data from the company share drive easily
    and making it shareable on the new server. I just don't want to go over to each computer and unjoin them from the old domain and join them to the new domain on the new server, and have to setup their outlook, move their data in the user profile etc...
    I want to keep the same domain name and users.

    Probably your easiest option is to join the new 2012 R2 server to your existing domain, promote it to be a second domain controller, then once it's running as a DC move the FSMO roles from the old server to the new one (see
    http://trunkofmemorie.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/how-to-change-fsmo-roles-in-windows-2012.html for a step by step guide to the process) so the new server effectively is in charge, then when you're ready you can demote the old server before disjoining it
    from the domain and retiring it.
