Hi
Get SID and serial from v$session and use following
execute sys.dbms_system.set_ev(&&SID, &&SERIAL, 10046, 12, ' ');
or
execute sys.dbms_support.start_trace_in_session(&&SID, &&SERIAL, waits=>true, binds=>true);
Hope this will help U

Access bind variables in forms

Hi,
I have declared a bind variable called :cal_group in sql query of a calendar and i added the calendar as a portlet to a page. And i set the value of the bind variable in the Page parameters section in which this appears as a portlet parameter. Now, I have a form which is called from this page. And i want one of the fields in the form to be prepopulated with this bind variable value. How can i do this. Any ideas greatly appreciated ! Thank you.

Hello sharmila,
Thank you for the response. Can you please give me an example. It would be very helpful to me. I was wondering how the form recognizes the variables declared in the calendar. Regards,

Need to find the SID of a forms session.

Hi,
I need to find the SID of a form session. How to find the same.
Eg:- If a user connected to our EBS system, Then automatically one sid will be generated to that user. I need to find the SID for this user. If given detailed steps it would be great help.
Regards
SR.

Hello,
Although I am a bit unclear about the question. But please see if the following helps;
I can query the v$session to know about the SID. Here is a simple example;
select sid,
substr(username,1,15) "DB UserName",
substr(osuser,1,15) "OS UserName",
substr(command,1,3) CMD,
substr(machine,1,10) Machine,
terminal, process, status,
substr(program,1,50) "OS Program Name"
from v$session
where type = 'USER'
order by usernameHere is a sample output;
            SID DB UserName     OS UserName     CMD MACHINE    TERMINAL         PROCESS      STATUS   OS Program Name
              7                 SYSTEM          0   ORAAPPPROD ORAAPPPROD       976          ACTIVE   ORACLE.EXE
              8                 SYSTEM          0   ORAAPPPROD ORAAPPPROD       3548         ACTIVE   ORACLE.EXE

DB Trigger firing issue in case of oracle forms session crash

Hi All,
Oracle DB version: Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
Oracle Forms version: (Oracle Developer Suite 10g) 10.1.2.0.2 Production
I am entering some data in the oracle forms and committed the data to database. This form is still open.
By some reasons i get a error as "FRM-92101: There is error during forms server startup" and the forms session gets crashed.
When this event happens i wanted to update the records which are inserted before this error occurred. For this purpose i created a BEFORE LOGOFF ON DATABASE trigger (in SYS user) and declared that transaction as autonomous and performed update and then commit.
But when i get this error in forms runtime session, this trigger doesn't fire and also the records don't get updated.
If i query to v$session view, the session entry is gone because the forms session is crashed.
Can anyone please tell me why this trigger don't get fire when oracle forms session gets crashed? Or is there is any other way to run update statement as soon as the forms session gets crashes?
Thanks.

Hi,
please check java runtime console for more issue information.
Windows:
SystemControl->Java Plugin Ver XXXX -> Standard -> Check "Show Java Console"
In Systray, check the console for information about errors in java after the form error.

Recording forms session -output file specification?

In Oracle applications you can set the value of ICX Forms Launcher to have the parameter "&record=FILE" and the session will then record the form activity to the file you provided (directory depends on your apps version).
Now there are tools out there to manipulate this file for setting up repetitive data loads however they don't quite meet our needs in one way or another and also the licencing costs for many users can be high. I would therefore like to write a bespoke process that manipulates this file.
I have gained a pretty good understanding of it just by recording different forms sessions and seeing how the file changes, what actions cause various entries in the record file etc.
What I woudl really like though is some kind of technical document which describes the output in this file. Ie, what fields are possible in what column position, just so I don't miss anything out.
I've searched high and low, done a search in Metalink etc and turned up nothing.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
John

What OS is running on your PC? I'm having the same issue with a Windows 7 PC, but not with a Windows XP PC.
What I think is happening is that after you hit "Stop" there's a process called "iTutorCleanup" that's run to post-process the .sim file. On a Windows XP machine I can see this running, and I end up with a working .sim file afterwards. I suspect on a Windows 7 PC this cleanup process is failing and that is why the .sim file disappears.
I'm still playing with compatibility mode settings, but haven't found anything yet that makes it all work. If anyone has any suggestions I'd be very grateful!
Thanks,
Steve.

Unable to exit forms session deployed through application server10G R2

Hi all,
I'm having an issue where I'm unable to exit the forms session.
1) Installed Oracle Application Server 10g R2 on Windows 2003
2) Upgraded custom forms from 6i to 10g
3) Created a forms configuration for the custom forms
4) Deployed forms.
5) Accessed the main startup form from the server / client machine
Browser : Internet Explorer 7.0
Sun JRE : Java Plug-in 1.5.0_14
6) Form works fine, but when Action => Exit or Forms window is closed, it
hangs. Have to close form session by going to task manager and clicking end
task.
No issues are there whatsoever with test.fmx and a sample form created with EMP table.
I'm not sure whether this is an issue with the Java plugin, upgraded forms or with the application server settings.
Pls help !!
Regards,
Sam
