WebDb 2.2 listening ...

I am running Oracle 8.1.5 with WebDb 2.2 on Redhat 6.1. Everything is working great on the local machine. I can run Netscape and access WebDb just fine. HOWEVER if I port scan this box from another machine I can see the wdblsnr on its port (Nor can I access WebDb from any other machine other than localhost) I did a netstat -a | grep 8080 and I get:
tcp 0 0 localhost:loac:8080 *:* LISTEN
So why can't I connect from another machine?

I have WebDB 2.2 and Portal 3.0.6 Production Release installed on the same database 8.1.7 without any problems.
I recently upgraded the database to 8.1.7 because only 8.1.6.2 and above is certified with Portal. But I don't remember having any problems running both of the products in 8.1.6.

WebDB 2.2 Listener problem on Linux 6.2

I have installed oracle 8.1.6 on RHL 6.2 and listener is
working fine as I test it thrg clients. Then I installed
Webdb 2.2 and Web Listener on it on port 8080 instead of 80 as it is being used by apache. Everything
OK but web listener is not working. If I open any document on the server itself i.e. http://servername:8080/webdb it works
but it does not work on client. netstat -a does not show any port 8080. It is very strange situation
as it works on server ? How can I test it whether it is working fine ?
I think there is some problem with libraries. Can any one
give me some clue or solution ? [email protected]
Thanks in adv

The problem is you did not provide a pfile location for the parameter file. Please refer to the sample shell script below where it makes the right calls:
#!/bin/sh
ORACLE_SID=test
export ORACLE_SID
/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/svrmgrl << EOF
spool /u01/app/oracle/admin/test/create/crdb1.log
connect internal
startup nomount pfile = "/u01/app/oracle/admin/test/pfile/inittest.ora"
CREATE DATABASE "test"

WebDB 2.1 Listener connecting to remote WebDB server

Any pointers on connecting a dedicated WebDB listener to a WebDB server on a remote system. Directions are a bit obtuse.
Frank

We have solved this problem by using "Remote Link" to tables on Server and creating views on Listener system to tables on Server.
You have to copy/create your WEBDB forms to/on Listener System (as far as I know).
But be carefull some "standard buttons" like "Add New" does not perform/show at all.
Please let me know if you find a better solution.

WebDB Listener not installed ?

As I read in note 107596.1 'How to set up Oracle forms 6I server on NT using FORMSCGI'
the WebDB listener will be installed automatically when installing Forms 6 Server.
But after the installation and trying to run the test form the page cannot be found !!
I think the problem is that the WebDB Listener is not installes, cause when I try to open the admin page (http://my_machine:80/WebDB/admin_/listener.htm) the page cannot be found either.
How can I find out what the problem is and how can I find out if the WebDB Listener is installed or working, as I think the problem is the WebDB Listener !!
Thanks,
Marcel

I recently web enabled Developer 6i Application.
U have to specify Forms Deployment and WEbDB as the Listener, WebDB Listener Port and Forms Server port etc. Then the Installer will do most of the work. After installation u have to modify the Formsweb.cfg file and provide the FORMS60_PATH etc to get u r Forms Web Enabled.
For Icons etc u have to make additional configurations.
In u r control panel or Services u must find WebDB Listener.

WebDB Listener on NetWare w. Netscape server

Can anyone help!
I have installed WebDB 2.0.5.6.1 on owr NetWare 4.11 (SP8) running Oracle 8.0.4.2.0 (with the 80421a path).
We would like to run Netscape Enterprise server (NES) as well (on the same machine). I tried to follow the instructions:
1. In the NES admin added new CGI directory calles "ORAWEBDB" mapped to "SYS:/ORANW804/NLM/WDBCGI.NLM"
2. Added "Aditional Document Directory" calles "/images" mapped to "SYS:/ORANW804/WEBDB/IMAGES". Is "/images" the correct URL, or should it be "ORAWEBDB/images" (incl. the CGI directory name)?
3. Save and applied changes.
Trying to access the webdb site "http://servername/orawebdb/" fails with:
Database Log In Failed
An invalid username/password caused log in to database fail.
Verify that the username/password you provided is correct
Browsing to the native WDBLSNR.NLM did show an HTTP login-box. The NES/LCGI server does not show the login-box? What have I done wrong?
Do I still have to LOAD the WDBLSNR module? If so, on which port etc.
Thanks!

Developer 6i Release 2 for NT - WebDB missing ??

Hi,
I have downloaded and installed Developer 6i Release 2 for NT but when I tried to configure the virtual directories I found that the default WebDB Web server/Listener is missing in the downloaded version.
(But in the installation manual, they mentioned it is available with this download)
In the Windows-Control Panel-Services, there are only 2 services are installed (Forms Server and Reports Server), But earlier when I installed in my previous project, it included another service "Oracle WebDB Listener", which is missing in this downloaded version.
Please help me in clarifying my below queries :
1)For web-deployment of Developer Forms 6i, what are the Oracle products to be purchased ?
2)Whether Developer 6i Release 2 for NT includes Oracle Default Web-Server/Listener (i.e. WebDB Release 2.2)
(or) I have to purchase and install Oracle 9i Application Server which includes (Oracle9iAS Portal - WebDB 3.0)
3)Whether below combination is compatible with each other and supported by Oracle :
a) Windows NT 4.0 (or) Windows 2000
b) Oracle8 Enterprise Edition Release 8.0.5.0.0
c) Developer 6i Release 2 for NT
d) Oracle9iAS Enterprise Edition

I. Brief summary on the architecture of Reports Server, CGI and Reports Servlet
=================================================================================
In order to understand the causes of the error "Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server", let's first briefly review the Reports Runtime Engines, Reports
Server, the Reports CGI, and Reports Servlet architecture.
There are 4 important layers in Reports Server architecture which should be
understood in order to clearly understand the error "Unable to communicate with
the Reports Server" :
1) The Runtime Engines : This is the main layer where the reports are actually
executed. On unix systems there are "rwrun60" and on NT systems there are
"rwrun60.exe" processes.
2) The Reports Server : The Reports Server recieves the job request and queues
it. When one of its runtime engines becomes available, it sends the
command line to that runtime engine for execution. On Unix systems it is
the "rwmts60" executable and on NT systems it is "rwmts60.exe".
3) The Reports CGI : The Reports Web CGI passes the request to the Reports Server.
The Reports CGI or Servlet converts the request to a command line that can be executed by the Reports Server and
submits it to the specified Reports Server. On Unix platforms this executable
is "rwcgi60" and on NTs it is "rwcgi60.exe.
4) The Reports Servlet : Its functionality and function is just the same as "Reports CGI", but it is
a program written in Java as difference to the CGI program (which is
written in C programming language).
The Reports Server may be running on the same server with the CGI program (or
servlet) OR may reside totally on another machine which does not necessarily have
the same Operating System. For instance CGI may reside in a Windows NT machine
while the Reports server may reside on a Unix box, or any other combination with
Unix-Linux-NT-2000, etc.
The reports are called with a URL similar to below with the CGI :
http://fully.qualified.server.name:PORT/dev60cgi/rwcgi60.exe?server=<REPSERVER>&other_parameters=...........
where fully.qualified.server.name is the name of the server where the Reports CGI
reside, and <REPSERVER> is the name of the server.
II. Sources of errors encountered when running a report with Reports Server
============================================================================
The Reports Web CGI (or the Reports Servlet) makes a call to the Reports Server
and asks it to place the output into some destination (defined by DESTYPE and
DESNAME parameters), then gives back the necessary response to the calling
program. For example if the DESTYPE is "cache", then the Reports server generates
the report to a file in a temporary place and gives it back to CGI and the CGI gives
it back to the calling program. Otherwise, if the DESTYPE is "file", the Reports Server
generates the report output to the requested file and the CGI replies back the
following message : "Report output was successfully written to requested
destination.".
If there is any error in this process, the related error message is returned. The
possible sources of errors can be categorized as follows :
1) The errors that are returned from Reports Server; like the Reports Server can
not find the requested RDF file or the report may be run to file and the
directory where the reports output is asked to be placed does not occur or
similar errors. (Usually the REP-XXXX errors)
2) Another possible cause of error is the errors returned by the RDBMS to the
Reports Server, for example a table not found error or things like that. Of
course from the CGI point of view these errors are again transmitted from the
Reports Server but in fact the error originates from the RDBMS. (Usually the
ORA-XXXX errors)
3) Another possible cause of errors is the CGI itself, for example when the CGI
executable can not connect to the requested Reports Server, then we get the
famous "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server". In this document we will
diagnose the common reasons of this last error.
III. How the CGI (or the Reports Servlet) communicates with the Reports Server
===============================================================================
Having said that "Oracle Reports Server CGI - Unable to communicate with the
Reports Server." error is returned back from the CGI itself, let's discuss the
issue of how the Reports CGI connect to the Reports Server. The name of the
Reports Server given in the URL with "server=....." parameter is, in fact, just
a special tnsnames alias, similar to aliases for database connect strings. As it is
important for the CGI to resolve the alias, the CGI needs to know the HOST name (or the
IP) of the machine where the Reports Server is running and the port on which the
Reports Server is listening. So a typical Reports Server alias is defined as follows :
REP60_<MACHINE>=(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = <MACHINE>)(PORT = <PORT>))
This is defined in tnsnames.ora file, and the sqlnet.ora file is also used in
the name resolving operation.
IV. Possible reasons which lead to "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error.
==========================================================================================
The possible reasons for the "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server" error :
1) Reports Server is up and running :
Make sure that the Reports Server is really running on the specified server
and listening on the specified port. For details have a look at above
explanations for tnsnames alias of the reports server. And because of this the
CGI could not establish a connection to the Reports Server.
2) tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora problems :
As described above, the CGI resolves the details for the reports server using
the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora" files. There may be a problem with them,
here are the possible configuration problems :
a) There is no alias in the tnsnames.ora file for this Reports Server
b) The CGI looks into the wrong directory for the "tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora"
files. By default the CGI checks the $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory for
these scripts, where the $ORACLE_HOME is the home of the Forms & Reports
installation. Please note that in a typical 9iAS 1.0.X installation there
are two ORACLE_HOME's, one is for the iAS and the other is for the tools,
usually the home for the tools is a directory with name "806" on NT and
"6iserver" on unix systems. By defining TNS_ADMIN in the environment, one
can override the search path for these two files.
The TNS_ADMIN variable can be defined in one of the following places :
i) In the environment : On MS Windows platforms check the "Settings
--> Control Panel --> System". On NTs check the environment TAB and in
Win2K systems check the "Environment Variables" button on Advanced tab.
ii) In "6iserver.conf" file. Details are as follows : The main configuration
file for Apache server is "httpd.conf" file which resides in
$IAS_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf directory. In this file there is a line to
include "oracle_apache.conf" and in this "oracle_apache.conf" file
there is a line to include "$ORACLE_HOME/conf/6iserver.conf" file. And
in this file the TNS_ADMIN variable could be defined as follows :
SetEnvIf Request_URI "rwcgi60" TNS_ADMIN=c:\orant\network\ADMIN
Please note that by defining it this way, the TNS_ADMIN will only be defined
for "rwcgi60" calls, so the other parts of the 9iAS will not be affected by
this setting.
c) In sqlnet.ora the "names.default_domain" is set but in tnsnames.ora the
domain is not defined in the alias description. For example if the
"names.default_domain=world" is present and active in "sqlnet.ora" file
then in the "tnsnames.ora" the alias of the reports server should also have
the ".world" extension appended at the end. And another cause is of course
the vice versa for this. If there is no "names.default_domain" is defined
in the "sqlnet.ora" then the alias in "tnsnames.ora" should not have the
domain extension.
Another important point that should be checked is, if TNS_ADMIN is defined
as described above then the search path is as follows, first the directory
defined by TNS_ADMIN is searched, if the "tnsnames.ora" file is not found in
this directory then $ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin is checked. (And on unix systems
/var/opt/oracle is also checked). These directories are only checked if the file
is not present, so if the "tnsnames.ora" file is present in TNS_ADMIN directory
but the alias is not present, then the other directories are not checked at all.
Let us assume that the tnsnames.ora file is present in the TNS_ADMIN directory but
there is no "sqlnet.ora" files here, then the sqlnet.ora file is checked in
$ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin directory, which could cause the same problem if the
"names.default_domain" is defined in this file.
All the above will result in, CGI to unable to resolve the alias in tnsnames.ora
file so it will not be able to establish a connection to the Reports Server.
3) Wrong "ORACLE_HOME" setting :
Wrong ORACLE_HOME setting. This is usually the case for Reports Servlet,
because the environment settings are defined in "jserv.properties" file for the
servlets and the setting here will effect both the Reports Servlet and the
setting for Oracle JSP and other servlets. So the other servlets or Oracle JSP
may need to set ORACLE_HOME to home of HTTP server while the reports server needs
it to be set to the TOOLS_HOME directory. In this case the best alternative is
not to set ORACLE_HOME in this directory and leave it to registry or defined the
ORACLE_HOME in "6iserver.conf" file just like the TNS_ADMIN defined above. For
details please have a look at the following document :
Note 179609.1 "Getting an error Unable to communicate with the Reports Server
using RWSERVLET"
4) Effect of parameter "maxconnect" :
Another common case for this error is that the CGI request reaches the Reports Server but
the Reports Server refuses connection. The main cause for this case is, that the Reports Server
configuration parameter "maxconnect" is defined too low, there are long running reports on the
server or the server is too busy at that time. Usually a second try some
later time results in a successful connection. If this is the case, the end user
may think that the problem is occasional. For details on this case please
have a look at the following document :
Note 125265.1 "Unable to communicate with the Reports Server"
5) Passing very large parameters to reports server :
Another known reason for this error is, if you are passing large parameters
to the Reports Server which exceeds sqlnet transmission blocks then the request may
end up with this error. To test it try with small parameter values. If you hit
this case, the solution is to increase the SDU (Session data unit size) and the TDU
(Transport unit data size) parameters in tnsnames.ora file, for details please
have a look at the following document :
Note 197358.1 "Passing large parameters to Reports show up a Reports Server
error"
6) A case specific to OAS 4.0.8.2 :
If you are using OAS instead of iAS, and the error appeared after
upgrading to 4.0.8.2 then this is caused because the 4.0.8.2 is using RSF
(Required Support Files) version 8.1.6 and the Reports 6i is using 8.0.6 and the
two could not reside in the same ORACLE_HOME directory. So the solution for this
problem is to create a new batch file and use it from which the actual CGI
executable is called. For details please see the following document :
Note 116754.1 "After applying OAS 4.0.8.2 CGI and Cartridge cannot communicate
to report server"
7) A case specific to WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 :
Another known case for this error is with WEBDB version 2.1.0.9.3 or less.
If you are using these old versions of WEBDB as HTTP listener, please have a
look at the following document :
Note 95426.1 "URL Not Found When Calling Oracle Developer Report from WebDB Site"

On Windows you can create a Report Services:
rwserver -install server=repserverYou have to choose different names for all servers, like your collegue cannot create a server with the same name. You can start/stop this Report server in Services (control panel). Configuration files can be found under $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf

BUG DESCRIPTION
This patch fixes the Web Report Review functionality to work correctly with the
WebDB 2.5 listener.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS (scripts, prerequisites, etc.)
This patch contains one or more driver files to be applied with AutoPatch.
Please apply the driver files in the following order (if they exist) :
c1301917.drv (This is the copy driver)
d1301917.drv (This is the database driver)
g1301917.drv (This is the generate driver)
This patch should be applied on the tier running the WebDB 2.5 listener.
AFTER APPLYING THE PATCH:
Web Report Review needs to be able to locate an FNDFS entry in the tnsnames.ora
file accessible to it. After the Rapid Install is complete, $TNS_ADMIN for this
environment points to the network/admin directory under the WebDB 2.5
ORACLE_HOME. The tnsnames.ora file in this directory does not contain this
entry.
This can be corrected by either:
1. Adding the entry to the existing tnsnames.ora file. See the documentation on
setting up Web Report Review for details on creating this entry. The
tnsnames.ora file in the 8.0.6 ORACLE_HOME should also already contain this
entry.
2. Setting TNS_ADMIN to point to another location, that contains a tnsnames.ora
file with the correct entry. This variable is set in the environment file for
the WebDB 2.5 home. See the Rapid Install notes for the location of this
file.
Modify the TNS_ADMIN location in this file and restart the WebDB listener.
Later versions of the Rapid Install will automatically create this entry.
Now my question is I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WAT THE STEPS I HAVE FOLLOW...BECAUSE THE PATCH IS NOT IN GENERIC FROM,THERE IS NO 'U' DRIVER FILE IN THAT.
ONLY 'C' DRIVER FILE IS HERE.aFTER APPLYING THE PATCH WAT THAT ABOVE TWO STEPS HAVE TO DO FOR MY ENEVEROLMENT.
PLEASE SUGGEST................thanks in advance.....

Hi,
Ask your developer, what is the issue? and from where did he get this patch?
Now my question is I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WAT THE STEPS I HAVE FOLLOW...BECAUSE THE PATCH IS NOT IN GENERIC FROM,THERE IS NO 'U' DRIVER FILE IN THAT.
ONLY 'C' DRIVER FILE IS HERE.Previously, in 11i patching was done using copy, database and generate driver files.
Some patches only needed c driver to be applied, some only c,g and some c,d,g....
aFTER APPLYING THE PATCH WAT THAT ABOVE TWO STEPS HAVE TO DO FOR MY ENEVEROLMENT.After applying the patch, you have to make sure that 8.0.6 ORACLE_HOME tnsnames.ora contains entry like
FNDFS_MYTEST=
        (DESCRIPTION=

Web agent 8.1.5.1

I have a question concerning the installation of the intermedia web agent.
I have chewed through most of the documentation but have the follwong question.
Is the web agent compatable with the webdb listener supplied with webdb 2.2 or do I have to be running Apache ?
Thanks Dave.

The web agent was designed to be able to be 'plug-able' into any web server that supports server plugins. The WebDB light-weight listener supports file-system access and the PL/SQL gateway, which calls PL/SQL procedures that use the HTP_*, OWA_*, etc, packages to build HTML responses. However, it doesn't have a general purpose server plugin API. The web agent supports the following web servers on NT:
- Oracle HTTP Server, powered by Apache
- Apache
- Netscape
- IIS

Use Apache CGI to listen the WebDB site?

Please Help me?
Questions
1. When use the WebDB listener to listen the WebDB site,why the WebDB listener for Linux download the image is slower than the WebDB
listener for Windows NT?
2. When I use the Apache server to listen the WebDB,the others are correct but next two problem.
a. Useing the URL http://192.168.1.254/cgi-bin/wdbcgiw/webdb/admin_/gateway.htm to change the DADs setting is inefficacy.
b. When I access the WebDB site, I get a logon page,I input the username and password than click OK,the browser's URL address turn to "http://192.168.1.254/cgi-bin/wdbcgiw/webdb/WEBDB.home?auth_userid='usernam'&auth_password='password'&login_hidden=%2Fcgi-bin%2Fwdbcgiw%2Fwebdb%2FWEBDB.home",and the browser prompt can't find the page.I turn back the logon page and try to logon again,the brower prompt web server internal error.But,when I added the username and password to the DAD,I don't need to logon and can access the webdb site correct.
My system environment
Redhat Linux 6.1
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.1.0
Oracle WebDB 2.2.0.5 for Linux
Apache 1.3.12
MS IE 5.0

Could you explain:
1) Why you can't use content area pages?
2) What do you wont specific on WEBPAGE?

WebDB Listener and tnsnames settings?

Since I am new to the world of Oracle, I am struggling to get
WebDB (2.0) working with Oracle (8.0.5) on RH 5.2 Linux.
The installation works perfectly, and I can connect to the
administration pages via my browser. However, when I attempt
to create a site, the progress bar gets to about 10% and stops
(I have left it over-night with no change). Looking at the
process table, I noticed one of the oracle processes zombied
on me.
I suspect that I am missing correct configuration in listener.ora
and tnsnames.ora. Could someone post (or email) an example for
me please?
Regards,
-Matthew

Dynamic registration feature is available since Oracle 8i. The registration is performed by the PMON process of each database instance that has the necessary configuration in the database initialization parameter file. Dynamic service registration does not require any configuration in the listener.ora file.
see Oracle documentation

Debugging WebDB listener?

Hello,
for customer support I maintain a (frozen) development environment using Forms 6i and WebDB listener on Win2K. This has been stable for years... After recent installation of UMTS hard- and software suddenly the connection between WebDB listener and JInitiator 1.3.1.17 gets broken. I am able to connect to the forms server, but the JAR files are no longer downloaded correctly. They cannot be cached anymore:
Downloading http://dbmw1:88/forms60java/f60all_jinit.jar to JAR cache
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset by peer: JVM_recv in socket input stream read
at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead(Native Method)
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
WARNING: Unable to cache http://dbmw1:88/forms60java/f60all_jinit.jar
connectMode=Socket
serverHost=dbmw1
serverPort=9000
Turning off caching does not solve the problem as certain classes are not found.
I see that the above JAR file is transferred to the IE cache with the correct size, but not to the JInitiator cache. The WebDB listener creates many temporary files in C:\ where they did not show up before, one file having the size of the desired JAR file.
I tried several things to track down the problem:
1. Run SysInternals RegMon and FileMon -> no further hint what might be wrong.
2. Deinstall UMTS software -> problem persists.
3. Reinstall JInitiator -> did not help.
4. Twist settings for JIT and caching -> did not help.
5. Increase debug levels with JInitiator -> did not yield useful information.
6. Increase logging information of WebDB listener -> same result.
7. Debug running listener process with WinDbg -> did not work.
8. Install UMTS stuff on other machine and track installation with InCtrl5 -> Critical changes could not be identified. Some DLLs installed, some REG keys modified (TCPIP service).
Did anyone experience similar problems with WebDb listener? Especially the temporary files in C:\ are suspicous. I know that the WebDB listener solution is outdated and I might try to get Apache working with Forms 6i but I hope to find that small screw that needs to be twisted half so that my environment will be operable again. And no, reverting my system on behalf of a tape backup is not a valid solution as I depend on the UMTS networking for the future.
Thank you in advance,
Lars

Apache Web Listener & WebDB not Work ???

Hi,
I try to use Apache Web Listener (on Linux Redhat 6.0), for
using Webdb (by wdbcgi & wdbcgiw). When I launch the cgi URL, the
browser ask me a password. The pass doesn't work. I have no
access to WebDB. When I use WebDB Listener, it work perfectly.
If someone can help me,
Thanks a lot !!
Bart
PS: I have change for my config, the config files of Apache and
wdbcgiw for the access path to the config Webdb file.

If you are attached to the Internet with a Router using DHCP that you control, you do not need to have the Firewall on individual Macs turned on.
Otherwise, you may need to open some more ports to get this to work properly.
