Running forms 10g on PC with Forms 6i

I am currently running Oracle Developer Suite 6i (6.0.8.23.2) 32 bit etc. on Windows XP on my PC.
I now want to load Forms 10g etc. on the same PC. Is this possible? Are there going to be any conflicts with two dirfferent versions on one PC?
Edited by: 781424 on 03-Oct-2011 01:45

Hello,
It is possible. (I have the version 6i, 9.0.2 , 9.0.4 , 10gR2 and 11gR1 on the same PC)
The only point to take care of is the variable PATH.
You can create some BAT files that will set correctly the PATH for each version

Oracle forms 10g Parameter passing from forms to reports

Hello Room,
Please let me know what is wrong with this code. It is not passing parameter at all to the reports 10g parameter form from forms 10g, no matter what. I tried to delete the parameter from reports parameter form, I also tried to enable/disable restricted values from reports, I tried to hide the parameter from reports, but it is just not doing it.
DECLARE
pl_id PARAMLIST;
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status varchar2(20);
report_job_id VARCHAR2(100);
fill varchar2(100);

ab varchar2(200);
cursor c200 is select CONAME,LOCATIONMASTER.LOCNAME FROM USERCODETL,MULCOMP,LOCATIONMASTER
WHERE MULCOMP.CO=USERCODETL.CO
AND USERCODETL.USERID = SUBSTR(AB,1,50) AND USERCODETL.LOCCD = LOCATIONMASTER.LOCCD;
begin
AB := GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(USERNAME);
OPEN C200;
FETCH C200 INTO :block4.coname,:block4.locname;
CLOSE C200;
synchronize;
pl_id:=GET_PARAMETER_LIST('paramlist');
IF NOT ID_NULL(pl_id) THEN

Please help. Thank you in advance.

Hello Inol,
Greetings !
There seems to be a syntax error when I run your code:-
REP-52251: Cannot get output of job ID 272 you requested on Fri Apr 08 02:37:25 GMT 2011.<P>REP-51026: No output for job 272
when I run then command:-
http://local-pc:8889/reports/rwservlet/showjobs
Terminated with error: <br>REP-159: Syntax error on command line.
Is there a error on your statement ?
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1) ||'?server=repsrv );
it should be
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1) ||'?server=repsrv ' );
then only it is getting compiled properly. A single quote in the end !
And finally I changed this line
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no p_1='||:SP_USERCODE 'p_my_second_parameter='||:block.my_second_parameter);
to this line
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no p_1='||:SP_USERCODE|| *'p*mysecond_parameter='||:block.my_second_parameter);
as it is giving error where highlighted in bold Is it necessary to change and add a concatenation there ?_
But... But... even though I compile it properly the code is getting executed and it is giving the above error. Please note the same.
Also please tell me what should be the status of the following things in report builder 10g.
1. Shall I remove the parameters vcompany and vlocname from the parameter form and keep it just in parameters of report , There is a third parameter which I want the user to input while running the report other than these 2 parameters ?
2. Shall I restrict the parameter to predetermined values ?
3. Shall I hide the first column of the parameter in report builder.
I have also tried to simulate the execution parameters from batch to runtime and comm mode to synchronous and asynchronous and vice versa. I have also given command rwserver server = repsrv on my pc and also server pc. please let me know about this also whether I need to give this command every time ? I mean for every booting ?
As this problem is faced by many people. I think it should work across the fly as given by you or rather corrected by you. I would also like to know is there any patch available for the same released by oracle, as I have read somewhere in the forum here which I cannot locate the thread now. I do not mind paying for support if I find the need ?
Please help me further. Thank you.

Oracle Forms 10G - Can't compile Form

Good day,
     I'm getting the following error message each time I try to compile my form:
Error 103 at line 2, column 1
     Encountered the symbol "METHOD_NAME_HERE" when expecting on of the following:
          :=.(@%;
     The symbol ":=" was substituted for "METHOD_NAME_HERE" to continue.
     Please advise.

Never mind, I used a backup and the problem didn't come out.

Error running forms 10g with OC4J

Hi everyone,
I installed Oracle DB 10g and Developer Suite 10g (did not install Ap. Server) at the same machine (different homes), everything seemed to be OK, I use sqlplus with no problems, then I did this:
1) Created a table with just one field
2) Created a test form with Forms 10g using wizard with just that table and that field (I connect to oracle with no problems on forms builder)
3) Started OC4J Instance
4) When I run the form, it opens Internet explorer then shows Oracle application server forms service, but with this message ORA-12560 TNS: Protocol Adapter error, I click OK and ask me for a user and password, but the same error!!
IS there any configuration that I have to do on OC4J?? Why I can connect to oracle from sqlplus, enterprise manager and so, but it fails running forms, specifically when open OC4J???
Thanks in advance

Did you save the form before running it, in the context of the builder? there is a known bug in this area.

Is it .../forms/registry.dat or .../forms/registry/Registry.dat?
Let's go back to this post. I asked you to try a URL to your form in a browser window, not Forms Builder. The 2nd part of your answer, you said...
But if the OC4J instance is NOT running I have
message says FRM-92120: Registry file
http://walaa:8889/forms/java/oracle/forms/registry.dat
is missing."If your OC4J is not running and you try a URL from a browser, you should be getting a "Cannot find server or DNS Error", not an Oracle error. The only way I could reproduce your error above was to run from Forms Builder with OC4J started and having manually renamed my Registry.dat.
If you didn't edit your Registry.dat (and possible hose it), then someting just went wrong during the install. You could check you installation log. Mine is at C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2006-03-11_03-50-02PM.log and has a single line containing "Registry.dat" showing the target location.
Is this Forms10g R2 on Windows? You could uninstall ODS and reinstall in probably 30 mins to an hour. Maybe you want to consider that.

Load Balancing with forms server 10g

Hello,
i've a cliente which is right now processing a migration from a client-server 6i platform (using Terminal Servers) to a forms 10g web platform with several Application Servers 10g in standalone.
At the end, client want to enable Load Balancing in order to have some manage at each Application Server load.
The idea to accomplish is to have an hardware Load Balancer. The client already has a CISCO CSS 11503 SSL.
Is there any documentation where i can check more info about the compatibility/configuration to this architecture.
Thanks for your attention.
regards,
Pedro Ribeiro

You can check this doc Link:[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/hpux.1012/install.1012/install/toc.htm]
It say all about it, and don't mention nothing about a Load Balancer, but I'll try tokeep searching.
Greetings.

Font smoothing in Forms 10g

Hello,
Compared to the application running under 6i, the same application running under 10g shows fonts with jagged edges. From what I have found on the forum, this seems to be because of the JAVA fonts mapping in the applet.
Is there any way to introduce some smoothing or something similar to ANTIALIASING in JAVA.
I have tried clientDPI in basejini.htm but this does not help.
Thanks.

Hello,
Thanks but I already checked the papers related to Forms 10g (new functionalities etc...). I am just trying to see whether there are any parameters to use in formsweb.cfg, registry.dat that might help with the font smoothing.
Thanks

Deploying a form built using forms 10g builder.

Hi Everybody,
I Have experience with forms 6i Devlopment, Recently started with forms 10g.
while developing the form under forms 10g environment.
We have to start OC4j Instance and if we choose the RUN option form will run automatically.
But now, I have a confusion in deployment phase. so once the forms developement is completed, What are the configuration steps required, so that client can access the URL and access the forms built by us.
Please can anyone provide information overthis.
Thanks in advance....Pc Rao

Hi,
Once you complete the copilation phase.Then your fmx will be created in DevSuiteHome_1/form folder in your local PC.
Then give access to your PC fmx to your client like one shown below,
http://localhost:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=myform.fmx&separateframe=true
if you want you can store all the fmx in the server then remove the local host from above url then give the server ipaddress....But make sure in both case OC4J must be started.This is just a basic configuration.
Thanks,
Pavan.

Change background in forms 10g?

When we compile and run the form in forms 10g output is displayed. Can we change background? Can anybody help me to change the background in forms 10g?

see you /forms/server/forms.conf file that contains the virtual directories declared
# Virtual path mapping for Forms Java jar and class files (codebase)
AliasMatch ^/forms90/java/(..*) "D:\Oracle9i/forms90/java/$1"
# Virtual path for JInitiator downloadable executable and download page
AliasMatch ^/forms90/jinitiator/(..*) "D:\Oracle9i/jinit/$1"
# Virtual path for runform.htm (used to run a form for testing purposes)
AliasMatch ^/forms90/html/(..*) "D:\Oracle9i/tools/web90/html/$1"
# Virtual Path form images
AliasMatch ^/forms90/icons/(..*) "D:\Oracle9i/CGENF61\ADMIN\ICONS\PC/$1"
...you can create as many virtual directories as you want.

Creating Descriptive & Key FLEXFIELDS in Forms 10g

Hello everyone,
I want to create Descriptive & Key Flexfields in Oracle Forms 10g,Kindly help........

A FLEXFIELD IS A FIELD MADE UP OF SUB–FIELDS, OR SEGMENTS. THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF FLEXFIELDS: KEY FLEXFIELDS AND DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELDS.
KEY FLEXFIELDS:
I HAVE A COLUMN CALLED ADDRESS(SINGLE FIELD),WHEN I KEEP MY CURSOR ON THIS FIELD AND PRESS ENTER,IT POP'S UP A WINDOW WITH ALL NECESSARY FIELDS CORRESPONDING TO ADDRESS LIKE,DOOR-NO.,STREET NAME,CITY ETC.... WITH AN OK & CANCEL BUTTON.
ONCE I GIVE THE VALUES ACCORDINGLY IN THE ADDRESS FIELD AND CLICK OK BUTTON IT STORES ALL THE VALUES IN WINDOW TO THE ADDRESS FIELD.
DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELDS:
DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELDS LETS YOU ADD ADDITIONAL FIELDS TO THE FORM IN ORDER TO TRACK ADDITIONAL INFORMATION NEEDED BY THE BUSINESS, THAT WOULD NOT BE CAPTURED BY THE STANDARD FORM. DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELDS CAN BE CONTEXT SENSITIVE, WHERE THE INFORMATION YOUR APPLICATION STORES DEPENDS ON OTHER VALUES YOUR USERS ENTER IN OTHER PARTS OF THE FORM.
A DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELD APPEARS ON A FORM AS A SINGLE–CHARACTER, UNNAMED FIELD ENCLOSED IN SQUARE BRACKETS [ ]. EACH FIELD OR SEGMENT IN A DESCRIPTIVE FLEXFIELD HAS A PROMPT AND CAN HAVE A SET OF VALID VALUES
THIS CONCEPT IS USED FREQUENTLY IN ORACLE APPLICATIONS, WHICH I WANT TO IMPLEMENT IN FORMS 10G.I BELIEVE WITH YOUR EXPERTISE I WILL BE ABLE TO AHIEVE IT.
REGARDS ,
SRINI.

Execute_query not showing the -WORKING ...- Message on Forms 10g

Hello,
There is a strange thing happening with our Forms that were migrated to 10g.
1) Our keys were remapped to the ones used in the 6i Version. For example: CTL+L is F9
2) When a user presses F7 and then F8, on Forms 6i, we have the sequence of message:
Enter a query; press F8, CTRL+q to cancel
then
Working ...
and finally we get the records.
However on Forms 10g, we have when a user presses F7 and then F8 :
Enter a query; press F8, CTRL+q to cancel
and the message -WORKING...- is not shown and after a while we get the records.
There are no message_level before the enter_query or execute_query and there is no :system.suppress_working in the form.
What could be the problem ?

1) Our keys were remapped to the ones used in the 6i Version. For example: CTL+L is F9 Key mapping is controlled by the file fmrweb.res in path <DevSuiteHome_1 path>/forms/
Forms 10g is released with a unix style file where Ctrl+L is mapped to List of Values. There is an alternate file named fmrpcweb.res that maps F9 to List of Values. By renaming fmrweb.res to something else, and copying fmrpcweb.res to fmrweb.res, you will get the PC platform functionality.
You can edit the Web Forms fmrweb.res file using a text editor to tailor the function keys any way you need.
and the message -WORKING...- is not shown and after a while we get the records.Hmmm.... I tried that with a simple "default" test form, and indeed, the working... message does NOT appear, even when I set the Query Array size and Records Buffered properties to 1000 and queried a very large table. Why don't you open a Service Request with Oracle, and report back if you find a solution.

Arabic characters are displaying as question marks in forms 10g

We have migrated our application from forms 6i to forms 10g and now in forms 10g the arabic characters are displaying as question marks while it displays correctly in the old application using forms 6i. I have already set the character set to AR8MSWIN1256 in the registry, but it didn't help. Somebody please help.

@ Sarah, Al-Salamu Alikum We Rahmatu Allah we Barakatu,
Sarah Habibty, why new installation ? In order to select a new suitable character set !!!
Then creating a new instance from the db is a better alternative since it saves time,effort and another back up of his current db is exist safely if needed for any purposes in the future.
@Amer,honestly speaking...
Modifing ur NLS_LANG to > AMERICAN_AMERICA.AR8MSWIN1256
Works for me in both Arabic and English data in 2 applications.This works in my pc.But it didn't works at my boss pc this can happened don't have any reason for that.!!!!
i spent lot's of time trying to search but what i had got is that solution i suggested by a friend of mine.
Now please could you advise me, is it better to create a new instance of database as Amatu Allah has suggested or is it better to change the character set through sql as some others have suggested? Again i suggest to select the short cut way ; to reset the character set through sql after taking a back up from ur data that is currently exist.
then retest again doing the select and test ur data input and retrieval.
SQL> select * from v$nls_parameters
2 where parameter in ('NLS_CHARACTERSET','NLS_LANGUAGE');watching the output if it works that's fine saving ur time & effort .
if not working with the correct NLS_CHARACTERSET then use my previous solution.
Hope this helps...
Regards,
Amatu Allah
