Server session timeout when Migrate forms to APEX

Jozef Demovic SVK Dec 27, 2016 8:59 AM

Hi Experts,

I have a problem with migration of Forms to APEX.I tried to migrate sample forms (XML) files which are delivered with apex.

If I create a migration project and attach a xml converted file - server is still loading without answer until timeout error appear.

I tried it on APEX 5 and 5.1 too. Still the same results.

In my office I tried the same on another instance but only one file "customer" was uploaded correctly. But just once. If I tried it second time - upload failures.

Could you please help me with it ? I tried to check session timeout length but there are so much higher values than time till the error raise.

My specs are: APEX 5, 5.1 DB: 11g

Regards

To be honest, I would save your time and redesign your application to suit a web page and rebuild in APEX.

All you'll get out of the forms migration tool is the ability to annotate your forms code to maybe help during transition.

I don't think you should rely on any APEX page output with this process.

Hi Jozef,

I have the same problem. I also cannot load the xml file into Apex using the migration project. Do you already found the cause or does anybody else know how to work around this problem.

Regards,
Fred.

Honestly folks, converting from Forms to APEX is a manual process. If you are depending upon a conversion tool, you are going to be seriously disappointed in the results..
