UNIX: problem running an DEV & QA environment using form/report servlets

UNIX: problem running an DEV & QA environment using form/report servlets
I am trying to setup on one server an DEV and QA environment using the Forms Servlet, Forms Listener Servlet and Report Servlet.
I think I have the Forms Servlet and Forms Listener Servlet running properly. The problem is setting up the DEV and QA environment for running reports.
For example, when in DEV environment I would like to run a report from a directory specified in the REPORTS60_PATH. This doesn't seem possible.
It might be easier if I describe my configuration first:
DEV: run all forms and reports from the directory /data/release/dev
QA: run all forms and reports from the directory /data/release/qa
---DEV & QA Settings Forms Listener Servlet:
zone.properties:
# DEV
servlet.fl60dev.code=oracle.forms.servlet.ListenerServlet
servlet.fl60dev.initArgs=EnvFile=/u01/app/oracle/product/ias/6iserver/forms60/server/dev.env
# QA
servlet.fl60qa.code=oracle.forms.servlet.ListenerServlet
servlet.fl60qa.initArgs=EnvFile=/u01/app/oracle/product/ias/6iserver/forms60/server/qa.env
---DEV & QA Settings Forms Servlet:
servlet.f60servlet.code=oracle.forms.servlet.FormsServlet
--- Settings for Reports Servlet:
servlet.RWServlet.code=oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet
Custom Env files since we are using Developer 6i Patch 7
dev.env and qa.env
Here I specify FORMS60_PATH and REPORTS60_PATH,
eg: DEV -> FORMS60_PATH=/data/release/dev
REPORTS60_PATH=/data/release/dev
likewise for QA ../qa
In the formsweb.cfg file i have something like:
[dev]
serverURL=/servlet/fl60dev
form=test.fmx
[qa]
serverURL=/servlet/fl60dev
form=test2.fmx
I have tested the following and they work without problems:
1. forms listener test page, eg: http://webserver:7777/servlet/fl60dev
2. running forms from the 2 environments
eg: http://webserver:7777/servlet/f60servlet?config=dev
this runs the form in the FORMS60_PATH (/data/release/dev)
Now my problems start with Reports.
When I run a report from forms (using run_report_object) it will not run any reports
as specified in the REPORTS60_PATH
Even using this url:
http://webserver:7777/servlet/RWServlet?server=rep60&report=test.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=html&
userid=scott/tiger@test9i
It NEVER seems to pickup and use the REPORTS60_PATH. I have tried nearly everything.
I have gone throught the instructions in "Integrating Oracle9iAS Reports in Oracle9iAS Forms -
White Paper"
(http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/277282.pdf)
and Forms6i Patch 7: Oracle Forms Listner Servlet for Deployment of FOrms on the Internet
(http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/p7listenerservlet.pdf)
plus any other documents in metalink relating to forms, or report servlets. I am
totally confused, please help.
I have tried setting the REPORTS60_PATH in the following files without success:
custom.env (as specified by initArgs=EnvFile in zone.properties)
jserv.properties
in the zone.properties I have tried to set a custom env file for the report servlet:
servlet.RWServlet.code=oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet
servlet.RWServlet.initArgs=EnvFile=/u01/app/oracle/product/ias/6iserver/forms60/server/dev_rep.env
NO LUCK.
The only place that I can set the REPORTS60_PATH
is in "[6iserver home]/reports60_server" file when I start the reports server (did I even
get this right - I do have to have a reports server running don't I?)
Does this meaan I have to run multiple report servers for each of my environments?
Based on all the documentation I thought that REPORTS60_PATH as specified in the files relating
to the forms servlet would be the place to specify the path.
As you will understand I am getting really fustrated with this and it seems to
me that the reports servlet configuration in 6i is really half baked and since 9i
is coming out it will never be fixed.

I am even not able to run forms servlets from two different forms60_path, Is there any configuration do you make other than what you have mentioned in this post.
I already open a TAR in this regard, I am still waiting reply from ORACLE.
Thanks,

I have problem running the inverted pendulum trainer using NI ELVIS.

i have a problem running the inverted pendulum trainer using NI ELVIS. While loading the NI ELVIS bypass VI it is unable to find the "enable communications bypass.vi". could anybody please attach the VI.
I am using NI ELVIS 2
Thanks

The Enable Communications Bypass VI sounds like a VI that is only included with Traditional or legacy ELVIS designed to work with the first generation ELVIS unit, not the ELVIS II/II+ or myDAQ. It sounds like the inverted pendulum trainer you have is for use with ELVIS I. In the LabVIEW Loading dialog, do you see the full path for where it's looking for the VI? Can you provide that full path? If the inverted pendulum trainer is designed to work with the older ELVIS unit, there may be a newer version that supports ELVIS II.

Problems creating a web service that uses the report generation toolkit

Hi,
Im trying to develop a web service using labview 2013.
I create a html form that is correctly communicating with my labview method and part of the web service functionality is to create a report from the data obtained in the html form published.
I realized that using the report generation toolkit inside of the web service method the server cannot generate a report. ( If I run the same Vi before publishing the web service it works on the server but it doesnt work after I deploy it)
I thought that maybe Im unable to use the report generation toolkit VIs inside of the web service because Im not incluiding the (dynamic VIs labview uses when they run), I tried to add the excel dynamic library to the proyect but with no success.
I also tried to use VI SERVER to call a VI that generates the report using the report generation toolkit in the method that runs when the web service is call but it doesnt work either.
How can I deploy a web service able to use the report generation toolkit ?, how can I deploy a web service able to use VI server ?
Any help is really appreciated.

The issue you are running into is actually a limitation intended by Microsoft. They don't want windows services to be able to call into the ActiveX interface for Microsoft Office for security reasons. If you are deploying your web service to the NI Application Web Server on Windows you will run into this problem since the web server is a Windows Service.
While I haven't tested this, you may be able to work around this by packaging your Web service with a LabVIEW EXE rather than deploying to the NI Application Web server.

Why same query runs on isqlplus but not in Forms/Reports trigger

Hi,
I have one query in which I extract one column with parent table join if I run same query on isqlplus prompt it works but if I run same on Forms/Reports trigger it says found "select" where something else expected.
below is an example .
select em1.mreading, em1.grid_code,
(select em.mreading from energy_mreading em where em.grid_code=em1.grid_code and em.transformer_code=em1.transformer_code
and em.bus_bar=em1.bus_bar and to_date(to_char(em.r_date,'dd/mm/yyyy'),'dd/mm/yy') = to_date('02/01/07' ,'dd/mm/yy') - 1)
as Yreading
from energy_mreading em1
where to_date(to_char(em1.r_date,'dd/mm/yyyy'),'dd/mm/yy')= to_date('02/01/07' ,'dd/mm/yy')
Any one can help me, is there any restriction/limitations in Forms/Reports triggers.
Thanks, Khawar.

In forms and cursors you can not use scalar subqueries as you do. You have to use joins!
select
     em1.mreading
    ,em1.grid_code
    ,em.mreading as Yreading
from
    energy_mreading em1
   ,energy_mreading em
where 1=1
    and trunc(em1.r_date) = to_date('02/01/2007','dd/mm/rrrr')
    and em.grid_code = em1.grid_code
    and em.transformer_code = em1.transformer_code
    and em.bus_bar = em1.bus_bar
    and trunc(em.r_date) = trunc(em1.r_date) - 1
Try this, hope it works.

Issue Running a Dashboard on iPad using Oracle BI Mobile App 11.1.1.5

Hi All,
I have an Oracle BI dashboard (11g) which I'm trying to access through an iPad. I have Oracle Business Intelligence Mobile App (version 11.1.1.5) installed on the iPad and the version of the Oracle BI EE Server is 11.1.1.6.0
Functionality of the Dashboard
=============================
The dashboard consists of 15 tabs. The first tab is an Overview tab from where a user is required to select the value for a scenario. Once the user selects a particular scenario and clicks on Apply button the charts on the Overview tab, as well as the data for all other tabs gets generated and the user can select different tabs and view their data.
Results Obtained (till now)
================
The above Dashboard is working perfectly fine when tested on
i. Internet Explorer
ii. Apple iPhone & iPad - Safari Browser
ii iPhone - Oracle Business Intelligence Mobile App
Problem Running the Dashboard on iPad ( using Oracle Business Intelligence Mobile App)
============================================================
When I open the Dashobard, the initial Overview tab appears. As soon as I select a Scenario and click on Apply button, the Overview tab gets generated perfectly fine but the drop down list for selecting the other related reports (tabs) stops appearing.
The Refresh, Properties, Mobile/ Original Layout and Favorites icon on iPad screen all stop functioning.
However, if I do not select a Scenario in the Overview tab and simply click on the dropdown I'm able to view and select from the list of other available reports (tabs) in the Dashboard. The other tabs open up but do not display any components which completely or partially depend on the scenario chosen on the Overview page. Only the components which are independent of Scenario selection appear on the other tabs.
Selecting the Scenario in the Overview tab and applying it is a mandate for getting results on other reports (tabs) but once this is done then the complete navigation stops as explained above.
The same Dashboard is however working perfectly fine with the same App on iPhone.
If anyone has any idea about how to resolve this issue, Please help.
Thanks,
Jyoti

There are a number of issues w the Mobile app and Ipad...have to thoroughly reviewed this metalink note:

Date format Problem in forms&reports Services 10g

Hi Dears,
I Faced a problem during running reports ( i am using forms& Reports Services 10g), when i pass the parameters via parameter form to the report (built in forms10g Rel 2.0) its appearing in arabic like (25-يناير-2010) as my Date Formate is (DD-YYYY-MON) and NLS_LANG parameter is defined as Arabic_Saudi arabia.AR8MSWIN1256 so as a result report is not running due to unknown Date formate, how can i change the Same Date format (DD-YYYY-MON) to appear in english like (25-2010-JAN)
Thanks

You could specify the parameter as type VARCHAR2, explicitly cast it (maybe to DD.MM.YYYY) when you pass it from forms and cast it back in your query, like TO_DATE(:P_PARAM, 'DD.MM.YYYY')

Running an application developed in Oracle Forms and reports

Hi Folks,
Does anyone know or have an opinion on whether an application developed in Oracle Forms/Reports can run on Oracle Cloud as it is a supported product?
It is also possible to 'mix' adf and forms , but on the cloud.....?
Thanks
Alex

Hi,
Oracle supports three types of cloud deployments
(Private) where by applications runs on premises fully controlled by customers.
(Public) where by applications runs at oracle data centers and managed by dedicated team of experts.
(Hybrid) partial applications runs on premises "Customer Site" and rest on oracle public cloud.
in your scenario of using forms/reports and ADF , i personally recommend to have your private cloud as the forms / reports are the previous generation of oracle development tools , everything in oracle public cloud is now based on Oracle fusions and fusion middle ware where the development tools are Jdeveloper , XML , etc...

Awad El-Sidiq.

FORMS/REPORTS 6i using OCSM??

To Moderator,
This Question is to Moderator, but all are welcome to answer.
Where from we can get OCSM to install Forms/Report 6i on our Lan?
Is OCSM still support with Forms/Reports 6i.
Can we get any help on how to use OCSM for
Forms/Reports 6i?
We have got Oracle@Tools CD Pack v8 for Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT as part of our move to Release 11i.
We are current planning to install Oracle Forms and Reports Release 6i for our development on Windows95(0S) using OCSM.
After looking to into CD's for Oracle Forms and Reports in CD pack we could not find OCSM included.
Also we are using 16 bit Forms4.5 and Report2.5 , which was install using OCSM version 3.1.4.1.
What will be implications if we using Forms/Reports 6i with new version of OCSM?
Are there any known problem??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which Forms/Reports Builder to use for R12.2.4 Apps?

We are working on upgrading from R12.1.2 to R12.2.4 and I'm reading the Oracle E-Business Suite Developer's Guide Release 12.2 (E22961-12) from March 2015. On page 1-5 it says to use Oracle Forms and Reports Developer 10g. However when I go to download said developer suite, Oracle says it's no longer supported and I should download the 11g forms and reports developer.
Does anyone know which is the correct version to use for any custom forms and reports in R12.2.4?
Thanks.
-jean

Hi,
It is the same as in 12.1.x.
You should continue using Forms & Reports Developer 10g 10.1.2.

Crazy Errors using B1 Dev't Environment Project

I had created an Add-On using the B1 Dev't Environment code wizard. On my machine, it works great. I built the setup program also using the B1 Dev't Environment. That too worked well.
I tried installing the add-on onto a different PC, but keep getting an unhandled error from the common language runtime debugging services. It just says "Application has generated an error that cannot be handled". But I have error handling all throughtout the code.
I then built a simple "Hello World" app with only one event. It exhibits the same behaviour.
Has anyone seen anything like this?
I've built apps the "old school" way, but I really like the Dev't environment.
Hopefully, there's a work-around or a fix for this.
Thanks!

Hi Curtis,
I have been investigating the problem you found to run addons generated with B1DE CodeGenerator wizard when Microsoft Visual Studio .NET is not installed in the client machine.
I have found the problem and fixed it, I'm doing some testing on it and it should be released very soon on SDN as a new B1DE version 1.1.
The problem was due to the B1Wizard.dll referenced in your addons, this dll contains all wizard functionality and uses .NET dlls that are not included in the .NET Framework. In the next B1DE release addons will reference a B1WizardBase.dll that only contains the classes needed by your addons.
I will add some information in this main weblog as soon as the new B1DE release is published into SDN.
Regards
Trinidad.

Drastic problems running Forms using JavaPlugin

I'm facing some problems running my Forms application using JRE/JPI. My Forms version is 10g release 1 and JRE version is 1.4.2_13. I've upgraded my Application Server with patch to make it run smoothly with JRE. Patch ID is p4948949_9043_WINNT (patch 3). So my upgraded Forms version is 9.0.4.3.
Problems are as follows:
** There's a problem in Font, it's not appearing on application as configured. So I want to unistall the patch and restore my Forms version to previous version but I don't know how to uninstall this patch.
** Another issue which seems to be JRE related problem is I can't use mouse to select control on my Forms running application. I've to press TAB key to navigate through controls such as TEXT_ITEM. When I'm running application using JInitiator, this problem doesn't occur, I can click on any control of Forms , so I think it's JRE related problem.
Ours is a large scale application...this is why I'm in great problem now. Could someone help me resolve these issues?

Sun has suggested that Oracle bug 5512094 will not be included into a production release until 1.5.0_13. For reasons unknown to us, the fix will not likely make it into _12. Since we are not responsible for their releases, this information may or may not be accurate. You will need to contact Sun for the latest details regarding their releases.
In the mean time, it is recommended you continue to use the special release you were provided by Oracle Support. However, also ensure that you have installed the latest one-off patches on the server which address several focus issues. Below is a list of the latest based on which version you may be using.
Forms 9.0.4.3 > Metalink Patch ID# 5750167 (New as of Jan 24, 2007)
Forms 10.1.2.0.2 > Metalink Patch ID# 5677148
Forms 10.1.2.2 > Metalink Patch ID# 5750193
As mentioned, both Oracle and Sun are investigating several other focus issues, so these patches may not correct your issue.
The best suggestion would be to create a reproducible test case and provide it to Support. This will help Oracle to better determine if your issue is one which we are already aware of or if yours is a new issue.

The page that shows which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play.
