Encrypt formsweb.cfg file - 11g Release 2 Forms & Reports

edited Mar 11, 2014 12:00PM in Oracle Forms (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered

Hi ,

One of the requirement in the project is to encrypt the formsweb.cfg file where we specify the run time parameters like (Database userid password, startup form, archive parameters for the jars etc). for the Java applet to run in Forms 9i and above.  We are now with Forms 11g R2 and one of our customer doesnt wants the formsweb.cfg file to be read easily in plain letters.  Is there a possibility to encrypt the file after editing and saving the file.

If not the whole file can we just encrypt the database Userid / Password in formsweb.cfg file.  Please discuss , participate and try to give us a solution/work around. 

Howdy, Stranger!
