JInitiator Problem

866473Jul 30 2011 — edited Jul 31 2011

Hello.
Yesterday I was installed oracle 10i and oracle forms. But when I trying to run form in my browser, IInitiator doesnt work. Im sure that I was installed this plugin and java jdk and jre too. My version Jinit is: 1.3.1.22
Please someone help me.

Paul M.

when I trying to run form in my browser, IInitiator doesnt work.

My car does not start. Why ?

Please be more specific, what and how exactly does not work ?

Also, remember that you need Administrator rights to install jinitiator.

lake

I don't think jinitiator is compatible with any current browser. what browser are you trying to use?

I think you could install the jre and thus need to change formsweb.cfg
or you can try this:

I'm not using that version of forms instead I'm using 11 but try this:

I don't think you can use ie9. So try firefox or chrome instead. (You might be able to uninstall ie9 and go back to 8. I am not up on how to do that.)

I was pasted that instead old settings in formsweb.cfg but doesnt work. When I'm trying to run form I have still msg "Click here to download the plugin" in firefox

866473

Is there someone who can help me with my problem???

lake

Ok perhaps I should've mentioned on the client you uninstall jinitiator and any other versions of java and install jre (not version 7).
did you do that?

866473

Yes. I have no JInitiator, it was unistalled, and i have jdk 1.6.0_16 and jre6. Still the same.

lake

What you have to have for applets is the plugin in the browser. Did the java runtime get installed in the browser?

in firefox do this:
about:plugins

You should see something like this below.Even if you do see it installed, if it doesn't work, install the jre: (not 7):
But don't allow it to install some toolbar or antivirus or whatever program that could interfere with the applets.

# $Id: formsweb.cfg 15-apr-2005.13:17:30 pkuhn Exp $
# formsweb.cfg defines parameter values used by the FormsServlet (frmservlet)
# This section defines the Default settings. Any of them may be overridden in the
# following Named Configuration sections. If they are not overridden, then the
# values here will be used.
# The default settings comprise two types of parameters: System parameters,
# which cannot be overridden in the URL, and User Parameters, which can.
# Parameters which are not marked as System parameters are User parameters.
# SYSTEM PARAMETERS
# -----------------
# These have fixed names and give information required by the Forms
# Servlet in order to function. They cannot be specified in the URL query
# string. But they can be overridden in a named configuration (see below).
# Some parameters specify file names: if the full path is not given,
# they are assumed to be in the same directory as this file. If a path
# is given, then it should be a physical path, not a URL.
# USER PARAMETERS
# ---------------
# These match variables (e.g. %form%) in the baseHTML file. Their values
# may be overridden by specifying them in the URL query string
# (e.g. "http://myhost.mydomain.com/forms/frmservlet?form=myform&width=700")
# or by overriding them in a specific, named configuration (see below)
