Web-enabling Forms

Hi:
We are in the process of web-enabling Forms 6 applications.
We installed the OAS 4.0.7, Developer Server 6.0.5.32 and
JInitiator on a NT server. We took a sample application and were
able to run it from our browser on the server side after
supplying a URL in the browser window (as per Oracle's
documentation). So the server side scenario works fine.
However, when we tried to connect to the same URL from a client
machine (Windows 95), we got the error "Connection with the
server could not be established" on the browser. We were able to
ping to the server from this client machine.
Please advise.
Thanks.

You need to install JInitiator on the client machine ....

OAS Custom Help For Web-Enabled Forms

Anyone had experience implementing a customized help system into Web-Enabled Forms running on OAS. Regular Oracle Forms can display a help system using a specialized Oracle Form D2KHMain.fmx or using WinHelp with the library D2KWhelp.pll. Will either of these work when running the Forms on the Oracle Application Server? Java Help has been suggested? Any documentation would be helpful? Thanks.

do the following:
1. write a java program that read from the registry. you will use the program as a javabean later on.
2. compile the source and create a class/jar
3. sign it (goto sun site for details on signing class/jars). you must sign the java program or it will not be able to have access to the registry. make sure you do all the steps by following sun's instructions.
4. put it on your web server and modify the html file you use to start your developer application to include your class/jar.
5. oracle has some demos on attaching javabeans to forms. use them to help you.
6. use the program you wrote in step 1 as a javabean in your forms.

Bidirectional NLS support in web-enabled forms.

Is it possible to have bidirectional NLS support in web-enabled forms? That is, can a local user make any settings changes on their workstation that will make (e.g.) Hebrew right-justified for text fields? If this all depends on the environment varible NLS_LANG, then it is set on the AS server and not user-changeable. I know you can change direction programmatically, but it seems odd that it doesn't work automatically. P.S. We are running forms 6i with Application Server 6i on an 8i database. Thanks in advance.

Frank,
I am using calendar.pll sent to me by my friend. I will search on OTN if this utility is avaiable on it. If it is there also, then I will download it and test it again.
Thanks,
Kiran.
Vadivelan,
I am sending simple form and calendar.pll to your mail address. But, remember this works only in windows environment so far. I am finding the solution for Linux/Web.

Web-enabled forms and Java

We are developing a custom application using Developer 6. The application is web enabled
using Oracle Application Server 4.0.7 and Developer Server on a Solaris 2.6. This application is an extranet for company use only.
The problem that requires the use of Java is that we cannot read the client registry using web enabled forms. The solution I am told is to use Java to read the registry. Has anyone done such a thing? Can anyone provide suggestions or guidelines?
Thanks for any help you can offer!

do the following:
1. write a java program that read from the registry. you will use the program as a javabean later on.
2. compile the source and create a class/jar
3. sign it (goto sun site for details on signing class/jars). you must sign the java program or it will not be able to have access to the registry. make sure you do all the steps by following sun's instructions.

Web-enabled form

I have taken over a position within no training or handover and I have to update our online form.
I can see that we have a previous web-enabled form (as the link is on our website) and I have the PDF version however I don't see the web-enabled form in my FormsCentral account, which I took over from a former employee and which was updated with my login details. Please help!

Hi Elizabeth CEW,
Once you log in to your account all the forms shared with you would populate. However, if the form hasn't been shared with you, it would not display in your account.
Thanks,

How we can web enable Forms 5.0 application

An error occurred while trying to connect to a Web service, when InfoPath web enabled form loads.

Hi Everyone,
I am getting an error message: An error occurred while trying to connect to a web service, when my InfoPath form tries to load. The last few days, it only spits this error message in the morning and around 12pm-1pm it resolves itself and the form loads
fine the rest of the day, oddly enough.
A few things about my form:
1). It is web enabled
2). The form submits to a form library on the SP server
3). I use the UserProfileService data connection in the form to auto-populate a few fields
4). I use a udcx file with correct language stored in the root of the site collection in the data connection library
5). The form has been working fine until a few days ago
I noticed while in Central Administration, that the User Profile Service Synchronization is Stopped. Not sure if this is causing some or all of the problem. If I need to start it I will need to contact my farm administrator to do this, since I do not
have the service account information.
Also, I looked thru the log files on the SharePoint server and found the following by searching for the Correlation ID shown when the error comes up, I won't put in everything just the important messages.
Schema file was already loaded: BuiltInActiveXControls.xsd
FormServer Partial Trust - Proxy operation invoked in the SHIM process.
FormServer Partial Trust - Invoking proxy operation for Web service adapter failed with exception Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object. for Url=https://<SP URL>/_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx
Data adapter failed during OnLoad: The custom code in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated on the server. For more information, contact the server farm administrator.
The following query failed: GetUserProfileByName (User: , Form Name: Expense Report, IP: , Connection Target: <SP URL>/Data Connections/GetUserProfileByName.udcx, Request: , Form ID: urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:Expense-Report:-myXSD-2014-04-11T21-06-32
Type: DataAdapterException, Exception Message: The custom code in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated on the server.

Hi B.,
You are on the right track. I recommend that you first get the User Profile Synchronization Service started because that itself could be the root cause of the issue.
If that doesn't fix it then focus your attention on the GetUserprofileByName data connection. I always use my secure store ID for this connection. I add the ID by editing the udcx file and then publishing it again.
Hope this helps.

Web Enabled forms

Hi
How can I web enable a form. I know nothing about HTML

Sorry if this sounds harsh but your description of how this works, is totally and utterly incorrect.
If you you work for Oracle (as your strapline indicates) and you wish to discuss this, then mail me offline.
You wrote..
"Forms server creates Java applets (no html code) from your *.fmx files ( now stored on the Application server) which are capable of painting the screen inside a browser which will look just like your client /server Forms apps. When a transaction is processed on the client Forms Server process the transaction on the Application server - not on your client PC."
-- Forms server creates Java applets
No it does not. Forms server spawns a process per user, that process loads the FMX and uses meta-data name/value pairs to pass instructions to the java client. The Java client paints the screen based on these meta-data instructions. We do not (and never will) dynamically create java applets.
-- When a transaction is processed on the client Forms Server process the transaction on the Application server - not on your client PC.
No it does not. The java client is completely and utterly unaware of any application level logic in the application. The java client merely indicates that something occurred (either you clicked or typed) the processing of this event including any logic, data retrieval and messaging is handled on the middle tier by the forms server.

QueryXInModel model = new QueryXInModel();
wdContext.nodeRequest_FindXByElements().bind(wdContext.createRequest_FindXByElementsElement(new Request_FindXByElements(model)));
wdContext.currentRequest_FindXByElementsElement().modelObject().setXByElementsQuery(new XByElementsQuery_Sync(model));
//Processing structure

          QueryXInModel model = new QueryXInModel();
           Request_FindXByElement request = new Requst_FindXByElement();
            ProcessCondition   processCond = new ProcessCondition(model);
            QueryHitsMaximumNumberValue qhMaxNumValues = QueryHitsMaximumNumberValue(model);
      QueryHitsUnlimitedIndicator qhUnLimind = new QueryHitsUnlimitedIndicator(model);
        XSelectionByElements selecByEle = new XSelectionByElements(model);
                 processCond.set....();
                 qhMaxNumValues .set...();
           and so on
                request.set....();
wdcontext.nodeReqestFindX..bind(request);
in the above during the values you will automatically get the set values .

Run a client-side program when using web-enabled forms(host command)

I am trying to run a local program on my windows machine when i press a button on the oracle web form SCAN[Host('C:\scktscan.exe')]. It trys to execute the program on the server machine and not the client machine. The button will work when forms are run in client-server mode. How can i get the button to access a program on the client machine when the forms are run on the web?

In order to execute a program at the client pc, you must implement a java bean.
Have a look at the demos extension pack 1 (http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/forms/content.html)
It explains also how to implement this in your own application.

How to remove these items from Infopath ribbon in web enable form?

Hi All,
I am using custom list form customized in infopath 2013, I want to remove these items from ribbon :
I tried with Infopath "form Options" like:
But still showing "Picture-1" options. How to remove those items from ribbob?

Hi,
I understand that in the list view web part, you wanted to remove the ribbon of InfoPath form.
There are to mothed to achieve it:
Open the list, click new item, edit page, edit web part, unclick the ‘Show InfoPath Ribbon or toolbar’ box, the new item page will remove the riibon. Then when you open the page which has the list view web part, the ribbon of InfoPath form will also
be removed.
Open the page which has the list view web part, edit page, edit the list view web part, unclick the ‘Show InfoPath Ribbon or toolbar’ box, the ribbon of InfoPath form in the web part will be removed. Then when you open the list, the ribbon of InfoPath form
will also be removed.
The two method edit the same page newifs.aspx, so the list and the webpart will be modified in the same time.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best Regards,

How to web enable NT forms for Unix Environment

We would like to convert our NT forms
to Unix forms and make them web enabled.
We are looking for any UNIX setup information we can find so that we can get started.
We have already installed DEV6i Forms and Reports and it appears the server software went down as well.
WoW the questions.
Where does OAS 4.0.8 fit into the equation?
Do we need to use a JRE on the PC's? Is Jinitiator at the PC's O.K.?
How do you use the unix product Project Builder? -- what launces it? Is it motiff?
Is their any simple documentation for how to web enable forms.
It should be so complex --
Does anyone have a check list of what software should be installed.
Any directions for how how to configure the environment?
we believe we need some sort of checklist for what to do... Can anyone give any help.

You should install Oracle9iAS v1.0.2 on your unix machine. This will have The Forms services configured for you and save you all the manual settings.
Check out the internet deployment section on

Web enabling of oracle forms and reports

You can use either webdb or iAS to web enable forms and reports.
You can find and read the full process of doing this under the documentation tab on http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms and http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports

Options for Web Enabling Oracle?

Hi,
I am wanting information on the different ways in which to web front end an Oracle DB. We have plenty of PL/SQL and Forms experience in a Client Server architecture but are wanting to write an application with a web front end. Apart from web enabling forms, which we have ruled out what options are available to us.
We have been looking at possibly using JSP but are not sure whether the project will take the learning curve this will incur. I seem to remember there being a PL/SQL cartridge for generating HTML.
Any help at all greatly appreciated.
Roy

yes, mod_plsql for Apache (the core of Oracle 9iAS) allows you to make PL/SQL calls from a browser environment and return HTML. the entire Oracle Portal product is written using this mechanism.
learning JSP from scratch, and learning how to manage security, database connections and record sets would be a daunting task. if you want to learn Java, great. it's my favority web language. however, if you have PL/SQL experience and a need to get information to the web, use mod_plsql and generate dynamic content via PL/SQL and the database.
good luck,
rich

Web based form

Hi all
I know how to run a form as web enabled form. But i do not know how to run it as web based page;i.e; Like any web page. Any body have an idea?
regards

There are a lot of cool things you can do within the environment in terms of customization to your webpage but forms is an applet that will run inside your browser. You can go into your formsweb.cfg file and change the "Look and feel" and add a splashscreen...
