Run a Form in 10g

How do i run a form in forms 10. I tried to set up the path for running the .fmx from
c:/DevSuiteHome_1\Bin\frmweb.exe. It is not doing anything or giving any message.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,

A Forms is run either from a browser with the help of the Application Server or from the builder. The former is for deployment, the latter for testing and debugging.
See the deployment guide for how to deploy forms and hit the Run button in the builder to run it from there.

Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) Certification Matrix
Other comments:
1. I would not recommend using Forms 10.1.2.0 with Oracle DB 11.2.x. Patching Oracle Forms to 10.1.2.3 would be recommended. Using version Forms 11 would be better.
2. Attempting to use the Developer Tools on Windows 7 is not a great idea although it can be made to work. Developer Suite 10 is no longer supported and was never really intended for use on Win7. Again, patching to 10.1.2.3 is recommended and required if you plan to follow the Oracle instructions and certifications.
3. Installing the Forms Builder (Developer Suite) on Win7-64bit is not at all certified and was never supported.
4. Using Java 7 was not certified and therefore not supported for use with Forms 10.x
In general, Forms 10.1.2.x has been desupported. Customer using this version or older should be working on a migration plan for getting to the latest supported version which is 11.1.2.1.

Blank browser when run oracle form developer 10g

Hi, all
I'm newbie on oracle developer.
I'm using oracle form developer 10g, database also 10g and default browser firefox.
I made a form n give EMPLOYEE_MDL for the name.
I got problem when i try to run form, first time shown "*ORACLE FORMS.*" on browser and then the browser getting blank(just white space), the url is:
http://red-erie:8889/forms/frmservlet
Hope you can help me.
Regards n Thanks
eRie

It worked for me in Windows 7 Home premium, both in 32 and 64 bit operating systems...
What I did was,
After successful instalaltion of developer suite, I've installed latest JRE from www.java.com and configured formsweb.cfg and default.env file.
I've used IE8 only. I haven't tested on any other browsers.
Do modify these lines to configure formsweb.cfg to change to JRE from Jinitiator (As said by CraigB )

Getting ORA-06508 when running 6i form in 10g

hi,
I am upgrading my forms from 6i to 10g. I have created the following directory structure on my system.
c:\old_system\<module_name>\<forms60> --- All FMBs and FMXs
c:\old_system\<module_name>\<lib> --- All libraries

i have edited the registery entry for

Forms60_PATH --- c:\old_system\<module_name>\<lib>
for forms10g
Forms_PATH -- c:\10g_upgrade\<module_name>\<lib>
I have two template forms:
1. TMXSTAND.FMB
2. PPSSTAND.FMB inherits TMXSTAND.FMB
when i run the FPPS003.FMB then it gives this error.
ON-ERROR raised an unhandled exception ORA-06508.
Please suggest where is the problem.
Thanks.

I have given the proper path of the library folder in Forms_Path. Still I am getting this error...
Is this error because of having both the versions of forms (6i and 10g)?

Run 9i form on 10g AS

Is it possible to run a 9i form/application on 10g AS? Is there a configuration that would need to be changed?

What version is your Forms, i.e. 9.0.2, and what version of Application Server do you have, 10g (9.0.4) or 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2)?
However, in either case you must compile your Forms under the newer release.

Problems compiling and running 9i forms on 10g Linux app server

Hi all,
we are about to move our 9i developed forms application from W2k 9ias RL2 to a 10g linux application server. It seems that we are having very much trouble with the fact that file names are case-sensitive under linux. Our forms are designer-generated and afterwards modified using forms developer under win2k. Therefore these forms have designer plls attached (OFG*.pll). In addition, we use a few custom plls and an object library (*.olb). We managed to compile our fmbs to fmx using f90genm.sh on linux, but getting FRM-40735 and ORA-06508 errors at runtime. FORMS90_PATH in default.env is correct.
We took one fmb to narrow things down. Steps we took on development machine:
- Rename all plls to a format of uppercase name and lowercase extension (e.g. OFGBSL.pll)
- Reattach plls to the form
After that
- Move fmb and plls to linux machine
- compile the fmb without errors
At runtime, we get a ORA-06508 in a trigger that calls CGFK$LKUP_QRY.EXTEND_WHERE. This procedure is located in OFGTEL.pll. OFGTEL.pll has OFGMES.pll attached. We tried to compile OFGTEL.pll, but getting errors due to the fact that table CG_REF_CODES is not present in our db (we don't use it).
Other plls like OFGBSL.pll and our custom pll work well (proved by debugging).
Can anybody give us some hints or step-by-step instructions on how to move our application to linux, especially how to make OFGTEL.pll usable?
Thanks in advance
Gerald Krieger

Here is a part of code from OFGTEL.pll
IF (curr_value IS NOT NULL) THEN
SELECT decode(RV_HIGH_VALUE, NULL, RV_LOW_VALUE, curr_value)
, RV_MEANING
INTO new_value
, P_MEANING
FROM CG_REF_CODES
WHERE ( (RV_HIGH_VALUE IS NULL AND
/* this will compare them as chars, as the */
/* abbreviation will most often be a char */
curr_value IN (RV_LOW_VALUE, RV_ABBREVIATION)) OR
(to_number(curr_value) BETWEEN
to_number(RV_LOW_VALUE) AND to_number(RV_HIGH_VALUE))
AND ROWNUM = 1
i think the unix .pll and Win .pll are not the same

Do you have a logon statement in the ON-LOGON trigger in your form? Do that, and it won't ask you to logon each time you run the form.
Also make sure you connect to the database in Forms Builder by going to File -> Connect...

Loading http://abc:8889/forms/java/printtext.jar from JAR cache
This tells me you are using a 3rd party or locally developed Java Bean to perform some type of print function. Is this correct?
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: java.io.IOException: open HTTP connection failed.Does your printtext.jar Java Bean need to open an HTTP connection in order to print?
Have you been able to print in the past using this Java Bean? Where did you get the Java Bean?
RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 10.1.2.0Your form appears to be using WebUtil. Has it been successfully configured?
Honestly, you need to list the following minimum information when you post a question; it gives us all or most of the information we need to help you and it eliminates the need for us to ask for this information. Please always include:
* Forms Version (eg; 10.1.2.0.0 not 10g)
* Java Version

I need a code to run a report from a forms on 10G...

Hi!! I´m migrating from 6i to 10G and i cant run a report... can someone send me a sample code to run a report from a form in 10G??
Thanks!!
Regards!

iam using Javabean in oracle 10g forms to tun the report....
First create a block with a name control and add an bean to it with a name
userid_bean.click the proerty of the bean and changes its width and height
so that u cannot see it when u run the particular form.
now use the below code where u are coding to run the report.
Declare
rep_url varchar2(2000);
begin
rep_url := '/reports/rwservlet?report=filepath\rep1.RDF' ||
'&desformat=htmlcss&destype=cache&userid=sample/sample@oracle' || '&paramform=yes';
-- Write Log messages to the Forms JInitiator console.The Next line must
-- be disabled before running this code in any production environment.
set_custom_property('control.userid_bean',1,'ADD_USERID',
get_application_property(username)||'/'||
get_application_property(password)||'@'||
get_application_property(connect_string));
-- writing the cookie
set_custom_property('control.userid_bean',1,'WRITE_USERID_COOKIE','10g');
web.show_document(rep_url,'_blank');

Can't run form from Form Builder 10g - Port configuration problem?

Hi,
I have installed the Database (10.2.0.1.0) and the Developer Suite (10.1.2.0.2) on two Linux machines (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES 4 Basic).
If I enter the frmservlet-URL manually everything seems to be fine.
In one case I enter http://127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet, in the other http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet; in BOTH cases I get eventually a dark square and the status bar says "Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main started".
HOWEVER, if I create a simple form with Form Builder and click on the Button with the green traffic light ("Run Form"), the form runs only on the machine where frmservlet listens on port 8890.
On the other machine (frmservlet configured to listen on port 8889) Firefox pops up, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:32979/6dOrpwghCqnp8PhMT7KVT533m3IaArqFbPqPBOztZXWYSsNy" gets called, and nothing else happens. The screen displays the string "ORACLE FORMS." and the status bar says "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...", and it stays like this forever.
I assume this is a port configuration problem, but I don't have a clue where to start.
Any suggestions how I should proceed are greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
I doublechecked my configuration.
In the dialog Edit --> Preferences --> Runtime the Application Server URL is set to "127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet".
However, when I attempt to run the form, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:33140/W2dwbV9eXS2fPkuKlxNhCxFWdEihwDviat2uV7ycrSotqwDN" gets called.
The screen displays the string "ORACLE FORMS." and the status bar says "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...", and that's it.
I wonder how the port number 33140 got selected. Interestingly, this time it is a different number; last time it was port 32979. In fact, the port number seems to change each time; I tried again and now it is 33189.
I will now try to set the port number for the frmservlet to 8890.
I choose Edit --> Preferences --> Runtime and set the application server URL to "127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet".
I stop the container, open /home/oracle/OraHome_1/j2ee/DevSuite/config/default-web-site.xml and change the port number to 8890:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone='yes'?>
<!DOCTYPE web-site PUBLIC "Oracle Application Server 10g XML Web-site" "http://xmlns.oracle.com/ias/dtds/web-site.dtd">



<web-site port="8890" protocol="http"
display-name="Oracle Developer Suite 10g instance of Oracle Containers for J2EE Web Site">

     
     
     <default-web-app application="default" name="defaultWebApp" root="/j2ee" />

<web-app application="forms" name="formsweb" root="/forms" />


<web-app application ="reports" name="web" root="/reports" />
<web-app application = "reports" name="demo" root="/repdemo" />
     
     <access-log path="../log/default-web-access.log" />
</web-site>
I restart the container, start Form Builder, connect to the database, and open my test form.
When attempting to run the form, the URL "http://127.0.0.1:33437/Pl0n3ky9vmU5z37A7ScBnQhsGwq3jwuzJpgTAKWPMOYIzT8K" gets called (again a new port number, apparently picked radomly within a certain range) and nothing happens: "Waiting for 127.0.0.1...".
However, when I enter the URL http://127.0.0.1:8890/forms/frmservlet I do (eventually, after confirming that I trust the certificate etc.) get a darc rectangle and the status message "Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main started", which tells me that my setup can't be that far off target.

Check the Module property: Console Window. If this property is null, then the Status Bar will not be displayed during runtime. You have to set this property for each form.

The "Splash.gif" is located in the frmall.jar file. What is it you want to do? Do you want to use a different spash image during application startup? If yes, you can display a different startup splash image by using the splachScreen= parameter in the formsweb.cfg file. The replacement .gif file must be located in the directory specified in the imageBase= parameter. Keep in mind that this file will need to be signed or you will get a security warning.

Unable to run forms in oracle forms developer 10g

I am using oracle forms developer 10g on oracle application Release 12.
When i run form i am getting error that weblistener is not running on default port 8888. Then i changed it to 8000. But still i am not able to run the forms.

Nivas,
In addition to running OC4J, you must also have your browser configured to use a Java Runtime Environment. The easiest - and preferred - method is to install the Oracle JInitiator as there is not configuration needed other than the installation. You can also use Sun's JRE, but you would have to research how to configure your PC correctly. The other option is to change your FormsWeb.cfg file to use the Browser Native JRE. Edit the formsweb.cfg file and find the IE= directive. The Default is IE=jinitiator. Change this to IE=Native, save your changes and you are done. This is not the preferred solution, but it does work.

Can we run oracle Forms 5 Application with 10G in Client/Server?

Hi All,
Can we run oracle Forms 5 Application with 10G in Client/Server
Mode?
Regards
Gaurav

In theory you can run it 2 tier - which means that you have the client (the machine the user is sitting at) being the same machine in which the forms application server is running. So yes. But specifically, we don't support a client server runtime anymore. 6i was the last version.
With 10g you will be running through a browser.

Running Oracle form 10g in web

Dear all,
What components do i need to run a form 10g on web?
I have developed a form already and it runs on a browser of the machine i used to develop it. I want to run it from another machine via web, what should i do?
Thanks and regards,

Hi!
On your develop machine open the formsweb.cfg in %developer_home%\forms\server
with the text editor of your choice.
Scroll to the end of the file and create a new config entry:
This is for use with Jinitiator without webutil:
[your_config_name]
form=your_form_name.fmx
WorkingDirectory=x:\your_fmx_path
lookAndFeel=oracle
# leave userid empty to force manual login
userid=user/password@database
baseHTMLjinitiator=basejini.htm
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jarTo call your application from the other client machine use
*{noformat}http://developer_machine:port/forms/frmservlet?config=your_config_name{noformat}*
Regards
