Running oracle forms and reports on the web

can any one help me out....
I have oracle 9i database as back end and oracle forms & reports 6i which was running on client server architecture. Now i want to deploy all my forms on web so that it runs on internet explorer . For all these things to happen what all upgradation i need to do.... . Do i need to upgrade my back end database and with what i have to replace my oracle forms 6i. pls tell in detail. I am using windows XP as my operating system and my disk space is 160GB and RAM is 1GB.

The process of upgrading Forms to the web can be found here: otn.oracle.com/formsupgrade.
You will also need to confirm the version you are upgrading to supports the database version - if you have support from Oracle you can check this out on metalink.oracle.com (and navigate to certifications).
Of course, the documentation is also a good place to start - otn.oracle.com/products/forms and navigate to documentation.

the first step to give only 9i form server and report server(or services, a buzz word) only is good. But the key issue to adopt the limited 9iAS is whether it must use Oracle LDAP SSO server, if so, then it will have trouble to buy it as it will force to buy full 9ias again.
E.G., the Chrysler corporate standard is to Websphere, then it prohibits our team to buy another set of similar app. server. Now we like the limited form/report server edition, but before we go ahead to apply for permission to buy, we must also answer if it will work with no Oracle LDAP SSO etc.
Will the 9.0.4 limited edition work with non-oracle LDAP/SSO ? Or generally, will 9.0.4 be open enough to work with other application server/infrastructure?

How to deploy existing forms and reports on the web

Hi Guys,
I have 6i forms and reports within our environment, and we are running client/server architecture, by installing forms and reports runtime on each client PC's. We would like to get rid of this by deploying forms and reports on the web, without zero coding. Can any one suggest and guide me through the process with proper security mechanism enabled along with.
Thanks in advance,
Aji

Thanks for the update,
We have a develpment 10g AS environment setup made,
1) But we are really confused how to present the forms and reports.
We have around 250 forms and reports running on client/server architecture. All these forms/reports have been copied to a fileshare and access control is restricted by folder security.
2) How to deploy forms - entries within formsweb.cfg with Named Configuration sections.
3) How to deploy reports, as to were to copy the .rep files.
getting the following error
REP-110: Unable to open file 'Car_Readings.rep'.

How to deploy the Oracle Forms and Reports 10g in Web?

Currently I am working in Oracle forms & Reports conversion project (6i to 10g).
As of now 6i forms working as a standalone application. After migrated it to 10g, I need to deploy the forms and reports in web.
Any one know how to deploy the Oracle forms and Reports in web?
Please help me out. Thanks in advance.

Hello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards,

I have installed oracle weblogic 11g, my quastion is:
is there any thing necessary to download and install to run forms and reports on weblogic
and how i can see my forms within url and how i can do connection on oracle database 10g
thanx

Hi,
I second John's link. I recommend to read through the installation guide. Which version of forms you looking to install, Forms 11gR1 or Forms 11gR2 (latest)? Also what type of system is this?
To summarize up the installation document, heres what you need to do to install latest version (11gR2):
1.) Download Install Files:
WebLogic *10.3.5*: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html
Forms 11.1.2: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/downloads/index.html
2.) Install WebLogic (No Node Manager)
3.) Install and Configure Forms 11.1.2
4.) You completed a vanilla WLS+Forms installation
5.) (Optional) Install Node Manager After installation is complete.
Let me know if this helps.
Thank you,
Gavin

How do I store oracle forms and reports in the database

Hi !!
Is there a way I can store the forms and reports runtime in the
oracle database ??
We are working on forms 5.0, reports 3.0
oracle 8.0.5.0.0 on HP-Unix
Can someone guide me step by step from storing the forms to
accessing it back on the desktop.
Thanks in advance,
Shobhit Kumar

You need SMB compatible names.. for both TC and if you use wireless then wireless.. short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric.
Go to the disk file sharing page.. turn on guest account.. read and write access.
Give it the right workgroup .. usually WORKGROUP
Load bonjour for windows onto the windows machine.. that should be included with the airport utility for windows.

Deploying existing application (forms and reports) over the web

Hi I do have the following environment:
1) Oracle 8.1.6.0.0 on HP-UX.
2) Application written using oracle forms6i and reports6i on NT (Client-Server environment)
I am looking to deploy this existing application over the web using 9iAS, sure I don't want to rewrite my application. I did that in the past using OAS 4.0.8 and forms server and reports server.
1)Does 9iAS support that, which one should I install the standard or the enterprise.
2)Do I still need forms server and reports server.
I stopped using the OAS because it had problems and the performance was not that good, I found CITRIX and Tarantella do better, performance wise.
3)Does 9iAS has improved that.
Any feedback regading these many questions is highly appreciated
Thanks
Khaled

Sounds like the ideal 9i As environment (although you might want to consider either upgrading or patching the database - 8.1.6.0.0 does have patches)
You'd be pleasantly surprised with the performance and stability improvements of 9iAS over OAS.
Deploying reports & forms over the web (pure web access, not terminal services like citrix) require some form of web server, reports server and forms server. I believe that 9i AS is totally compatible with the reports and forms developed in 6i tools, so there should be no rewrite at all.
If you have the time, strongly recommend you check it out.

Softwares and Licenses necessary to move Oracle forms and Reports to web

Hi Experts,
We are planning to migrate to Oracle forms and Reports 10g (Developer Suite 10g) . Can someone help me to identify the software and licenses required to deploy forms and reports on the web. We are using Forms/reports 6i with 10g database. We already have 10g database license. We have 15-20 only concurrent users using the application.
Thanks for your help in advance.

If you only need Forms and Reports you can use Forms & Reports Services Standalone version, dowloadable from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/101202.html

hi user ...
on windows there are some steps in front of installation and configuration.
1) cleare the Windows Env (Path .. Programme x86 )
no Blank in Path and so on
2) insert into your local host file your server and IP Adress
3) in Windows 32 setup of WLS is JDK included so you don't have to install the jdk in front of WLS
4) verify if you are using the right installation medium (jdk 32 bit, wls 32 bit , fmw 32 bit
in your OraInventory/logs directory is a *.out file for your installation please can you put this file in the forum
is there a nodemanager up and running (if so please stop)

Migrating Oracle forms and reports from 6i to 10g Application server on Uni

HI Guys,
We are migrating from Oracle forms and reports 6i to 10g.
We will be having application server on Unix box.
I understand following will be the changes i will have to do in this respect -
1. Fonts are to be revisited only Java fonts are supported.
2. Obsolete items, function calls, triggers are to be removed.
My question is since this application can be cross platform application,
Can anyone provide me with changes that I will have to do with configuration files like -
1. Formsweb.cfg,
2. forms.conf
3. default.env
4. registry.dat
Keeping in mind that the application server will be on unix box.
Thanks,
Av.

Java fonts are only supported for the Forms version.
You can use your own fonts for Reports however, there is some legwork to do this. I know because I just went through it.
If you will only being using the PDF output (which for me replaced the Preview mode that existed in 6i), then you have to install the TTF for the missing font, an AFM (use the ttf2pt1 utility to generate the AFM file, but make sure you remove the AFM extension when moving it to Unix). You'll want to use the PDF Subset in the uifont.ali (which exists under the ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin directory and add the line underneath the PDF Subset "Font Family Name"="TTF Font Name" The font family name is found when you open the AFM file in textpad or wordpad for the font you generated. This is what you enter. The TTF Font Name is the name the TTF font. You'll have to restart Reports Server after this.
If printing to the printer directly is an option you must have, I will tell you it does not work in Linux right now. You can print to the printer but if the font doesn't exist on the internal memory of the printer, it won't work. There are 3rd party utilities like ORARRP and PDFPrint that can take care of this but, each has its own limitations. The one thing I found with ORARRP is if you generate a Report with an RRPA file extension and open it on Windows, it works great, the printer dialog comes up asking you what printer you want to print too. However, if you call this in Linux/Unix with the filename, it brings it up in the web browser but doesn't prompt you for your printer to print too automatically. So, for me, it's a show stopper. My only other option is to install the fonts on the printer that are missing.
As for the files you want to change, you'll obviously have to make changes to the formsweb.cfg, default.env, forms.conf. I have to modify the reports.sh for some PL/SQL attached libraries to make sure it picks them up. I did have to modify Registry.dat.
There is alot of work but mainly forms wasn't too bad, unless you had fonts that weren't supported. Usually there is another font that you can use to replace the old one but you have to know which fonts exists on the server and try all the keys on the keyboard to find the corresponding keystroke.
Hope this helps.

So I Google for it and found that this is version mismatch (May be I am wrong) and it tells that I have to install WLS - 10.3.2 with ofm_pfrd_win_11.1.1.2.0_64 (1 to 4)
But I am unable to get wls version 10.3.2.
For better understanding I am listing my installers :
(I) Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
(II) (Oracle 11g) win64_11gR2_database (1 & 2)
(III) ofm_pfrd_win_11.1.1.2.0_64 (1 to 4)
(IV)wls1033_generic.jar , wls1033p_generic.jar , wls1035_generic.jar
(V)accessbridge-2_0_2-fcs-bin-b06
(VI)ofm_rcu_win32_11.1.1.2.1_disk1_1of1,ofm_rcu_win_11.1.1.3.1_disk1_1of1
(VII) ofm_wc_generic_11.1.1.5.0_disk1_1of1
(VIII)jdk-6u38-nb-7_2_1-windows-i586-ml , jdk-6u38-windows-x64
(IX) oepe-wls-indigo-installer-11.1.1.8.0.201110211138-10.3.6-win32
(X)wls1033_oepe111150_win32.exe
(XI)wls1035_win32.exe
(XII)wls1035_oepe111172_win64
(XIII)oepe-indigo-installer-12.1.1.0.1.201203120349-12.1.1-win64
After the installation while configure the forms reports, I am stuck while creating domain.
steps I follow is :
(i) Install Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
(ii) (Oracle 11g) win64_11gR2_database (1 & 2)
(iii) wls1033_generic.jar
(iv) accessbridge-2_0_2-fcs-bin-b06
(v)ofm_rcu_win32_11.1.1.2.1_disk1_1of1
(vi) ofm_pfrd_win_11.1.1.2.0_64 (1 to 4)
Please any body help, for the installation of oracle forms and reports.
