WebUtil and ActiveX

What is the correlation between WebUtil and ActiveX?
The reason I ask is that we have successfully installed WebUtil on our 9iAS R2 apps server and the Webutil forms that were created all work perfectly on site.
However our WAN covers sites all over the UK and the majoiry of these sites have all ActiveX settings disabled for security reasons. When accessing from one of these sites the form correctly loads all the .dll and .jar files but the CLIENT_TEXT_IO procedure will not operate.

... one thing I forgot. Duncan Mills, who could answer this question a lot better than I can, is on vacation this week.

LabVIEW Run Time Engine and ActiveX Automation Server

Hi,
I have a question related to LabVIEW Run Time Engine and ActiveX Automation Server:
We have a tool developed in LabVIEW and TestStand. End user interface is a LabVIEW GUI (it's an executable) which executes TestStand sequences. Some TestStand sequences call lower level LabVIEW VIs.
Everything works fine with LabVIEW installed, but I was wondering if I could run this tool on deployment machine with only LabVIEW run time engine installed. We are using LabVIEW 6.1 and with only the run time engine installed, I get the error message: "Unable to launch the 'LabVIEW.Application' ActiveX automation server ".
BTW, we are planning to upgrade the versions soon.
Is it possible to make things work only with the run time engine?
Thank you.

Thanks for the response, Brian.
I did upgrade to LabVIEW 8.0 and TestStand 3.5. Everything works fine on the development computer where LabVIEW and TestStand is installed. On the target computer in the lab, I installed LV RTE 8.0 and TestStand 3.5, and now when a VI is called in a sequence file, I get the following:
RunState.PreviousStep.Result.Error.Code -18002
RunState.PreviousStep.Result.Error.Msg "LabVIEW: The VI is not executable"
So, the executable opens and works fine (which means that the LV RTE is installed properly), but when a sequence calls a low level VI, it does not make it through.
comments/suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

Webutil and SQLLDR

It used to be on the client server when we run a batch file with sqlldr from a form, a cmd window would open and we can actually see a count of the records, and if we want we could make it that the user would have to click a button to close the cmd window and return to the form.
Now with the web version and webutil, I was able to make the batch file work and the data is loaded into a table, however, when the cmd window opens, it stays blank and you cannot see what is happening.
Is there a way to get the same performance as the client server version?
Thanks
George

Hi,
You can read the output/log file using textio (implemented through webutil)
and give a message to the end user.
Alternatively use the webutil host to open a command window and pass batch file which will do the sql ldr ....

Webutil and Office 2010

Has anyone else experienced any issues with webutil and MS Office 2010? We save .xls files to .csv and upload via webutil (10g). We are getting an error that the file on the root directory cannot be found, although it does exist. We found that if we saved as Office 2003 and then as a .csv file, it sometimes works. We never had this problem before upgrading to Office 2010. I ran the form in debug and confirmed it is bombing out on the client_text_io open command.
thanks in advance

I think we figured out it was also a Windows7 issue more than Excel. The Windows7 doesn't have a temp directory any longer, but we were able to create another directory (with a more meaningful name) and read/write to it. The webutil works fine now. Seemed like it was maybe a root directory permissions problem.
thanks

Webutil and XP

Hi,
We have a form in which we use the call web.show_document(l_url, '_blank'), where l_url is a location of an html file on a local pc. Then in a
seperate browser the html file is shown.This works fine for our application.
Now some users are migrated to XP as OS, instead if 2000.. For these users no webbrowser is started after the call to show_document. In the
javaconsole is also no error seen. It is just that nothing happens.
In IE and Firefox this problem occurs.
Is there an issue between webutil and XP? Or is this a different kind of problem?
Richard

Thx for quick reply..
We tried it.. But, problem keeps existing...
We also tried XP and IE6... again no browser appears ...

Webutil and Outlook - I get a WUO-714 and WUO-705 error

Hi,
I have installed webutil and it loads fine an all. However, I have a problem with a Microsoft Outlook integration. I am simply trying open an Outlook mail item, which is then filled out with some data. Pressing the Send button is up to the user.
Everything works until the line "mailitem2 := CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE_obj(MailItem,'Display');" is called. Here Forms reports back: "100501: non-Oracle exception" and the java console gives a WUO-714 and WUO-705. The problems seems to be the Display method. At that point, despite errors, I do have an open, visible mail item with the proper data filled in. (In this process I noticed that the final invoke_obj should happen after you write stuff into the To, Subject and Body of the mail, but that's besides the point.)
Any advice you can offer is welcome.
Sincerely,
Jesper Vad Kristensen
Aarhus, Denmark

[BUG] deploytk.dll file and activex control is NOT uninstalled

deploytk.dll file and activex control is NOT uninstalled, when you uninstall the latest JRE.
I have uninstalled the latest JRE, but the file deploytk.dll is still present in c:\windows\system32\ and the related activex control deploytk.dll 6.0.190.4 is loaded in IE8. Please fix this bug.
Windows Vista SP2

Unfortunately, it was *all* of my ActiveX controls that wouldn't load. That said, A user of the Info-LabVIEW list came up with the answer: reinstall the RunTime engine - wierd....
thanks,

Different versions Plugin and ActiveX with MSI file installation

Dear all,
we used the newest Adobe Flash Player MSI file with our software deployment tool. But we has trouble with two different versions of plugin and ActiveX installation.
Does any body know how that could be appear? Should we use now the .EXE file?
Best regards,
Marco Schmitt
Freudenberg IT

The EXE and MSI installers on the distribution page are always identical versions.
However, it seems to happen a lot that MSI installers are cached on some corporate servers. Make sure the caches are cleaned, or download the MSI from outside your corporate environment.

OCX and ActiveX controls

Hi there,
Can anybody please answer to my following questions?
1. What are OCX controls and ActiveX controls in D2K.
2. Whats the difference between using OCX and ActiveX control and when to use them
in our application.
3. A small procedure exlpaining how to use them in D2K.
4. Send me a sample form (.fmb) using OCX and ActiveX control (if don't mind).
Note: One can give answer to one question and other can give to other questions.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Aqueel([email protected]).

Nevermind, I stopped using the OCX to connect. Maybe they just don't work.

IE 11 Restricting Running Scripts and ActiveX Controls on Local Files

I have been coding for my MediaWiki pages and needed to test these pages with IE 11. However, whenever I open a file in IE 11, an annoying message saying "IE 11 Restricted this website from running scripts and ActiveX controls." How do I do a
one-time fix to stop this from happening in future to local files?

to test your WEBSITE.... publish it to a web server. eg. localhost/test.local
web servers and browsers use http(s), not the file: protocol.

When using FF 5.0, rollover type ads on Facebook game Lexulous pages are 'enlarged' and block 1/3 of the game board. Using up to date versions of Win 7 Home Premium, Adobe Flash and ActiveX

When using FF 5.0, rollover type ads (i.e. ads for XBOX) on Facebook game Lexulous pages are 'enlarged' and block 1/3 of the game board. Using up to date versions of Win 7 Home Premium, Adobe Flash and ActiveX on an HP Pavillion dv7 laptop. Does NOT happen at all in MS IE 8, but occurs every time in FF 5.0.
Also, Google 'translate this page' links do not work in FF 5.0, but works in MS IE 8. All I get in FF is a blank page, time after time.

Hi,
I am using a Nvidia 4200M adapter in my Laptop, Driver 266.96, Direct X 11
In my desktop I am using an ATI XFX 6950, latest revision drivers (I am not at home right now so I cant get that info).
The issue I did describe above, but it was a long explanation.
In some flash games the game files load initially and get as far as the "click to start" button. Then the flash area usually goes either all white or all black (usually depending on the falsh game default background color) and then it stays that color. Cant see anything after hitting start (usually most games have an intro video or animation before the game starts, but I cant see any of it.
For the very few games that do start, the flash game or application does not seem to work correctly in that when the rare game starts, it wont save any game files or save files to the pc and so if I exit the game (navigate away to another page or close browser) and then later come back, even though I click the option to save games (and ensure that the flash application slider shows it can save files and lots of space) it does not save and I have to start from the beginning all the time.
More explanation I gave above.

Flash player is installed on my Windows 8, enabled and ActiveX is off, what is wrong?

I have Windows 8, Flash player is installed, enabled and ActiveX is off.... I have tried all of YOUR flash player issue antecdotes and nothing has made it work, what now?

IE11 is a "Rolling Train Wreck". Combined with 8.1 it is, without a doubt, the worst pile of garbage to EVER come out of Redmond, WA.
MS deliberately altered the "User-Agent Strings" to make it nearly IMPOSSIBLE for pages and sites to ID it. (See: IE11's Screwed up User-Agent Strings)
The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Regarding WebUtils and Jacob

Dear all
I am following BAIG's blog for configuring WebUtil and Jacob .
http://baigsorcl.blogspot.com/2010/01/open-file-dailog-box-example-using.html
Mr Baig told to download both WebUtil and Jacob . But in 10G already Webutil is there .
So again i nned to Download and replace it ?
Or only i have to download JACOB ?

No, you don't need to download it again. It will be available for IDS.
You need to download only when you are using iAS ..
