Upgrading Oracle forms 6i to 11g

Hi,
We are planning to upgrade our application, currently on oracle forms 6i to oracle forms 11g
Would need help to analyze what are the issues we may face after the upgrade has been done.
Our team will not be upgrading the forms (upgrade would be done by a separate oracle team). We just will have to fix the issues which may have been caused after the migration.
Please help

Hi,
May I know why you need to start admin server in both the physically separated server. If you want to achieve HA solution for admin server, then do the clustering in such a way that Admin server will run in Active-Passive mode.
You can refer the same document that you have mentioned.

Install Oracle Forms and Reports 11g (11.1.1.4)

Dear Gurus,
I would like to install Oracle Forms and Reports 11g (11.1.1.4) on Windows 2012 Server. So could you please suggest me whether Windows 2012 is certified or not for installing Oracle Forms and Reports 11g (11.1.1.4) .
Thanks & Regards,
Satish Kumar Sadhu.

Hi Satish,
Forms 11.1.1.4 is not certified for Windows Server 2012. Further more, no 11g Forms release is actually certified by Oracle to run on Windows Server 2012.
I would use Windows Server 2008 and use Forms 11.1.2.1 (11gR2). 11gR2 is the best release from Oracle and will run much better than Forms 11.1.1.4.
For a peace of mind, you can check My Oracle Support - Certifications Tab and/or the published Certification Matrices below:
11gR1 Matrix (For releases 11.1.1.x): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/fmw-11gr1certmatrix.xls
11gR2 Matrix (For releases 11.1.2.x): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/oracle-forms-11gr2certmatrix-519680.xls

Upgrade Oracle Forms/Reports from 6i to 11g

Hi you Oracle experts,
I'm considering to upgrade my Oracle Forms/Reports application from 6i to 11g.
However, I see dozens of separated server components on the download page in OTN.
Can anyone guide me what server/developer software components should I prepare to install ?
Also, please tell me the service dependency between the server components.
Thank you in advance.

It depends on which Machine you want to install. Its different for a developer and a Server.
For Forms and Reports, you can Weblogic server and install FMV with Forms and Reports builders.
For migration you can go through this link.

Can i start oracle forms and reports 11g services in linux with opmnctl ?

Hi:
I am so confused with weblogic and forms 11g that i don't know nothing at all looll :)
Someone told me that to start oracle forms i need to this
[oracle@biz ~]$./startManagedWebLogic.sh WLS_FORMS
This scripts asks for a password and that's annoying... and it just stays waiting there.. i mean does not stay running in background... So if i finish my ssh session it will shutdown...
Today at oracle support they told me that i still can start forms with OPMN using opmnctl as we use to do in 10g... Is this possible? Does anyone here have a startup script for forms and reports 11g under linux? How do you guys start forms and reports?
Regards
Ricardo

Hi Ricardo,
Someone told me that to start oracle forms i need to this
[oracle@biz ~]$./startManagedWebLogic.sh WLS_FORMS
This scripts asks for a password and that's annoying... and it just stays waiting there.. i mean does not stay running in background... So if i finish my ssh session it will shutdown...After starting WLS_FORMS, you can very well send it to background.
Press Ctrl+Z and then type bg it will move it to background

with just opmnctl we cant run Forms I believe, we need to have WLS_FORMS also running ..
Forms requires ohs or wc to be up and running along with WLS_FORMS , thats is what is my understanding ..

Doubt with Windows and Oracle Forms 10G and 11g

Hi
I have some doubts in installing Oracle Client on Windows.
a)Can we install Oracle Forms 10g and Reports 10g client on Windows 7?
b)Can we install Oracle Forms 11g and Reports 11g client on Windows XP?
c)If we have an Oracle Forms 11g and Reports 11g, can it connect to a 10g Server?
d)If we have an Oracle Forms 10g and Reports 10g Client, can it connect to an 11g Server?
Please, Can any one help me in this????

a)yes it can be installed on win7, may have some issues on 64bit systems but they're solvable
b)11g had some problems with windows 2000, but didn't see mention of any problems on XP
c)if you mean a database server then yes - i managed to connect 11g to an 8i database, so v10 should not be a problem. If you mean a forms/reports server..well newer forms/reports builder might not want to run old forms/reports and vice versa, but I don't see the point of operating on the same files from different versions. You can still load old form/report source files with a newer builder and recompile them to run on the new server.
d) the "client" is effectively your web browser with a java plugin, unless I misunderstood your question. What version was a form/report compiled with should not be an issue.

In addition to Craig's feedback consider the following:
If you did not read the system requirements and installation guide, you likely will have problems.
http://docs.oracle.com/html/E25460_01/r2_fr_requirements.htm
<blockquote>1. Does your machine have a static IP address and/or the Windows Loopback adapter installed and configured?
2. You indicated that you have 2gig of RAM. This is the minimum requirement just to install the product. It is very unlikely that you will be able to comfortably use the product with 2gig of RAM. Likely the performance will be so slow that processes will timeout before they can successfully start. You can actually see this occurring already - look carefully at the log info you posted.
Further, if you are also attempting to run an 11g database on the same machine, this will never happen. Having only 2gig of RAM will never support running the DB and the components of FMw, and the Operating System.</blockquote>

Install Oracle form 11g requirment

hi,
i want to install oracle form and report 11g ,
but i don't know what package must be install
plz help

Are you installing a Developer instance of Oracle Forms 11g or an Application Server instance of Oracle Forms 11g? The processes for each are different.
The best installation instructions I've found for a Developer Instance is *How to Install Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.1/11.1.1.2 Forms and Reports Only [ID 854117.1]*. This is a My Oracle Support document, so you must have a My Oracle Support account to get it. If you don't have a My Oracle Support account, just follow the "Quick Installation Guides" that come with WebLogic Server (WLS) and Oracle Fusion Middleware (FMW).
Go to the Oracle WebLogic Server Downloads page and download the Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.2) - Package Installer. The file should be: wls1032_win32.exe. This is the minimum configuration of WLS needed to run FMW by a developer.
Next, go to the Oracle Forms Services 11g page and click on the "Downloads" tab and download the Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer (11.1.1.2.0) or (11.1.1.3.0). This is a Large download.
Once you have the needed software downloaded, run the WLS installer. Just follow the prompts and don't run the "Quickstart" at the end of the installation. Next, start the FMW installer. Follow all the prompts until you get to the *"Specify Installation Location"* screen. Make sure you write down directory locations listed on this screen. You can keep the default locations or you can change the Oracle Home Directory, Oracle Instance Location and Oracle Instance Name. I don't recommend you change the Oracle Middleware Home Location or the Weblogic Server Location. Also, make sure you record the WLS User ID and Password as you will need these each time you start the WLS process.
Next, on the Configure Components screen, select only the Oracle Forms and Reports server components, the Oracle Forms and Reports builder development tools, Management Components and Oracle HTTP Server system component. Then just follow the remaining prompts (you may need to configur a proxy, so check for this before you bypass this step). Once the Configuration Process is complete you will need to configur the Environment Variables so Forms knows whe re everything is. Most notably, you'll need to set the TNS_ADMIN variable so Forms can find your TNSNAMES.ora. You can also setup environment variables to bypass the WLS log-in each time you start the WLS services. These variables are: WLS_USER and WLS_PW.
You should be ready to start the WLS and Forms services at this point and use the Forms and Reports builders. At a minimum, you will need to start the Admin Server for Weblogic Server Domain and run the Start Weblogic Server in the Forms Services folder.
If you are performing an Application Server install, I can't help you with this as I have not done this type of installation. :-)
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
