Oracle Forms 12c Webutil not working with WebStart

Steven.S

Hi All,

I have installed Oracle WebLogic Server 12.2.1.4.0 and Oracle Forms Reports Deployment 12.2.1.4.0 on Windows Server 2019.

I run the forms using JNLP file (Webstart = Enabled) as I cannot get forms to run in a browser.

I followed the steps in (How to Configure Webutil in Forms 12c (Doc ID 2070183.1))

After running the form 'webutil_demo' I get errors. eg.

oracle.forms.webutil.clientinfo.GetClientInfo bean not found. WEBUTIL_CLIENTINFO.GET_SYSTEM_PROPERTY will not work.

Every tab I open has an error and every button as well, all having bean not found.

Does anyone have some advise and pointers on this, as I must be missing something?

Many thanks,

Steven

If you are trying to run a WebUtil enabled form you must include the configuration settings needed to support it. The installation provides several pre-populated example configurations (in Web Configuration / formsweb.cfg) that you can either use directly or copy to create your own.

Example: https://<server>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?form=mywebutilform&config=webutil_webstart

Also, if adding WebUtil you may need to include the third party library "JACOB". The Java jar included with this library must be signed with a trusted certificate. If running with Java Web Start, note that unlike other configurations, JWS add-on jars are referenced in "extensions.jnlp" and should not be added to the "ARCHIVE" parameter in the Web Configuration.

Thanks Michael for the quick reply, and pointing me in the right direction.

I created a new Web Configuration section as below and it works fine now.

[My_Webutil]

width=1600

height=900

envFile=My_Environment.env

form=C:\Runtime12c\forms\Login.fmx

WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar

WebUtilLogging=off

WebUtilLoggingDetail=normal

WebUtilErrorMode=Alert

WebUtilDispatchMonitorInterval=5

WebUtilTrustInternal=true

WebUtilMaxTransferSize=16384

baseSAAfile=webutilsaa.txt

fsalcheck=true

webstart=enabled

basejnlp=webutil.jnlp

Many thanks,

Steven.
