Webutils - controlling where jacob.dll and co are set on client

To use Oracle Forms with OAS, the J-Initiator must be installed on the client workstation. When the client accesses an application various files are placed in the Oracle Jar Cache. In addition the first time that Webutil is encountered the J-Initiator tries to copy three DLLs (jacob.dll JNIsharedstubs.dll d2kwut60.dll ) to a particular directory (eg c:\program files\oracle\J-Initiator 1.3.1.18\bin ).
Under my company's locked-down workstation policy that directory (and most others in c:\program files) is not writeable.
Is there a way of configuring the J-Initiator / Webutil so that a different directory is used for these DLLs?
(We have a work-round, to post the files to client workstation along with J-Initiator when originally installed, but this not ideal for long term version control).

The reason why the /bin directory is used at the moment is that we can be assured that the JVM will be able to locate any code that goes there. If we allow location elsewhere then we start to get into problems with setting the O/S path.
What you want to do is possible and it's possible today, although it will need a little more work.
If you look at the webutil.cfg file there are three lines that drive the DLL download:
install.syslib.0.7.1=jacob.dll|94208|1.0|true
install.syslib.0.9.1=JNIsharedstubs.dll|65582|1.0|true
install.syslib.0.9.2=d2kwut60.dll|192512|1.0|true
If you comment these out, then they will not be auto-downloaded. You could then use the normal file transfer capabilities of Webutil to push the files to somewhere where you are OK to write to and which is in the O/S PATH

  • Jacob.dll and jacob.jar have no size.

    Hi. I downloaded jacobBin_17.zip to sign webutil.jar and jacob.jar. When i extract jacob.dll and jacob.jar to Webutil/Lib directory, I see the they both have 0 KB in size. The jacobBin_17.zip I downloaded is 175 KB in size. Is ths the correct size?, and if so, what's wrong?

    the size of jacobBin_17.zip is correct (175KB) and When i extract jacob.dll and jacob.jar to Webutil/Lib directory the sizes are jacob.dll(92.0 KB (94,208 bytes)) and jacob.jar (16.1 KB (16,554 bytes)).
    Try to unzipped the zip file again. it's maybe a windows error....it's strange
    good luck

  • Error due to wrong size of jacob.dll and solution to fix it

    Hi
    First of all this thread is not a question for you but rather an information I would like to share with you.
    We are in the process of upgrading our Forms 6i to Forms 11g. The setup of Forms 11g (11.1.1.3.0) and Webutil is completed. I ran my first form with Webutil PLL attached to it. The form ran fine. I looked at the Java console for messages. Saw the following error message:
    System library http://<oracle_home>:8090/forms/webutil/jacob.dll has incorrect size in WebUtil config. Download will be cancelled
    After doing googling and a search on Metalink, found the cause of this error.
    It was due to the actual file size of jacob.dll file and the one specified in webutil.cfg file was not matching. The entry in my webutil.cfg file reads as follows:
    install.syslib.0.7.1=jacob.dll|106496|1.10|true
    To find out the exact file size of your jacob.dll file, right click on it and on the 'General' tab you can see the exact size in bytes.
    For example, *104 KB (106,496 bytes)*
    In my case the file size of Jacob.dll was different due to the wrong version of Jacob I had downloaded. I had downloaded jacob_18.zip file from the following link:
    http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jacob-project/jacob_18.zip
    Again, googling through Forms forums and Metalink, found that the version of Jacob.dll we need to have for Forms 11g should be 1.10. So downloaded this version from the following link:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/jacob-project/files/jacob-project/1.10.1/jacob_1.10.1.zip/download
    Unzipped it and the checked the size of jacob.dll, it was 106496, matching with the entry in webutil.cfg file !!
    The next step was to delete the old jacob.dll file from <oracle_home>\forms\webutil folder and old jacob.jar from <oracle_home>\forms\java folder and copying the new files back the same folders.
    The last step was to re-sign the jacob.jar file using sign_webutil.bat (or sign_webutil.sh for unix).
    As suggested in Metalink, to be on safe size, also deleted the old jar files downloaded in your temporary folder and deleted the jacob.dll file downloaded in your \Program files\Java\JRE\bin folder.
    Thats it ! Re-launched my form and checked the Java console. That incorrect file size message had gone !!
    Hope this brief information will help you if you also face the same problem.
    Cheers
    Mayur

    I still was getting error, but the fix made was
    .     Cleared the JAR cache and ran test form. Checked JAR cache to confirm – no Jacob.dll
    .     Ran http://<server>:9001/forms/webutil/jacob.dll in a browser - the downloaded Jacob.dll was the older version
    .     Searched ....\oracle\wls_64 to ensure no spare Jacob.dll were sitting around – there were none
    .     Guessed that Jacob.dll was being cached somewhere. Since you are using port 9001 (i.e., no HTTP server or webcache), I assumed it was the WLS doing the caching
    .     Stopped and started WLS_FORMS
    .     Tested form and it worked

  • In system preferences my search engine and homepage are set for google but my computer keeps using BING, please help!

    You installed the "Genieo/InstallMac" rootkit. The product is a fraud, and the developer knowingly distributes an uninstaller that doesn't work. I suggest the tedious procedure below to disable Genieo. This procedure may leave a few small files behind, but it will permanently deactivate the rootkit (as long as you never reinstall it.)
    Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data. You must know how to restore from a backup even if the system becomes unbootable. If you don't know how to do that, or if you don't have any backups, stop here and ask for guidance.
    Step 1
    In the Applications folder, there should be an item named "Genieo". Select it and open the Finder Info window. If it shows that the Version is less than 2.0, download and install the current version from the genieo.com website. This may seem paradoxical, since the goal is to remove it, but you'll be saving yourself some trouble as well as the risk of putting the system in an unusable state.
    There should be another application in the same folder named "Uninstall Genieo". After updating Genieo, if necessary, launch "Uninstall Genieo" and follow the prompts to remove the "newspaper-style home page." Restart the computer.
    This step does not completely inactivate Genieo.
    Step 2
    Don't take this step unless you completed Step 1, including the restart, without any error messages. If you couldn't complete Step 1, stop here and ask for instructions.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.
    If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder should open with an item named "GenieoExtra.framework" selected. Move that item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
    Move each of these items to the Trash in the same way:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
    /usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib/usr/lib/libgenkitsa.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib~/Library/Application Support/com.genieoinnovation.Installer~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.download.plist
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
    If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those listed above, move them as well. There's no need to restart after each one. Some of these items will be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
    Step 3
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including ones called "Genieo" or "Omnibar," and any that have the word "Spigot" or "InstallMac" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Your web browser(s) should now be working, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install this software. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad has a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If youever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Genieo developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. It must be said that this failure of oversight is inexcusable and has seriously compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You cannot rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the developer sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." If that happens, don't believe anything he says, but feel free to tell him what you think of his scam.

  • Control where to start and stop an SWF file inserted into a Captivate 6 slide.

    I am working on a project in which I need to insert SWFs on to slides in Captivate 6 and I've reached a hick-up. Some of the SWFs only need to start play at a specific frame (which is not necessarily the beginning of the SWF) and stop play at a specific frame (which is not necessarily the end of the SWF).
    Is there a way, by use of "Execute Advanced Actions" or "JavaScript", to control the play of a SWF, inserted on a slide, so that it starts and stops at desired frames?

    I think it is almost there now. Thanks for putting me int he right direction. You may be able to offer observations on my coding:
    this.onLoad = function() {
        stop();
    this.onMouseMove=function()
        // Test current mouse position is within the dimensions of the image
        if(_root._xmouse >= 0 && _root._xmouse <= 130 &&
           _root._ymouse >= 0 && _root._ymouse <= 420)
            // It is safe to play the animation as the mouse is within the
            // stage area
            play();
        else
            // We must stop animating and revert back to the first frame
            gotoAndStop(1);
    this.onRollOut = function() {
        stop();

  • I can't seem to get my Windows 7 Box to "see" the NAS where my music and movies are stored.  This ran fine on W XP.  After I installed iTunes on my new machine, I can't get it to "see/recognize" the NAS drive.  5 other computers can.  Any Ideas ?

    I have a mix of Apple and Windows Boxes.  The primary NAS is a 2TB Buffalo Unit.  The back-up NAS is a QNAP with 6TBs (set up as Raid 5).  Until I removed my old 32 Bit Dell machine today, all the rooms in the house got excellent delivery of audio or video, via Apple TVs, which then run into DACs and amps, and the  rest of the gear.  The 32 Bit Box was failing on some boots, so I got a new machine.  I installed 64 Bit iTunes on it, but cannot get it to recognize the NAS Box. It's like the setting took, as I can see it, however, it "appears" that iTunes is looking elsewhere for the media.  I would really prefer not to reload all 850 CDs, and redownload the 56 movies from iTunes.
    Is there something that changed in 64 Bit iTunes ?  years ago, iTunes would sometimes boot and really want to find the music under Documents and Settings..... but that seemed to sort itself out.

  • Our family has multiple apple ids and we are setting up a new apple tv. Does it matter which apple id we use if we have home sharing enabled?

    I have an apple id from my mobile me account; I also have the apple id from my itunes account (with which I purchase content for my powerbook); and my husband has an apple id for itunes which he purchases content for his itunes library on his PC.
    Does it matter which apple id we use to set up our new apple tv?
    what issues are caused by my multiple apple ids?

    You cannot merge apple ids, but you can sign out of the apple id and sign in under the other one either on your phone or your mac. On your phone, go to settings, itunes and appstore, tap your apple id, tap sign out, then go back to home screen, then back into itunes an appstore and sign in with the apple id you want to use.

  • Overprint Preview and Workspace are set to the same, but look different

    I'm working for something to be viewed on a screen, so I work in the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (Edit > Color Setting > Working Spaces - RGB: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 ). I have set the Overprint Preview to the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as well (View > Proof Setup > Device to simulate : sRGB IEC61966-2.1). But when I tick Overprint Preview the colors look completly different. Why?
    Thanks, Andi

    Maybe you are right and it doesn't make much sense to use the Overprint Preview in this case. I think what happens is, when you tick Overprint Preview, ID converts from your actual RGB-Color Space to a set CMYK-Color Space and back to the old RGB-Color Space (if set to the same one). On it's way the colors change through it's conversion from RGB to CMYK and back to RGB. That could explain it.
    Thanks a million, Andi

  • Time and date are set incorrectly on the routers and switches

    I've just noticed that the date and time on all my Cat4006's, Cat3548's and Cat6000 were grossly incorrect. I was wondering if this would contribute to problems I am having on the network. Does the switches/routers check the timestamp on the packets it's passing and/or append or add thereto?

    Date and time set on routers and swithces will not affect your user data traffic.
    Keeping Date and time synchronized across network devies will help if you are troubleshooting your network.
    If you need to keep date and time synchronized across all the network devices, use NTP (Network Time Protocol)
