Oracle 9i and Developer 6i will work.

I'm not sure about Oracle 9i and Developer 4.5.

Also, note that Oracle is not certified with XP Home edition (only Professional), but many people successfully installed it on Home edition too.

Hi Jeff,

You need to specify the host string also while connecting to database thru forms. You can find the host string in your [oracle9i_home]>network>admin> tnsnames.ora file. Open this file in notepad and notedown the service_name value. This is the host string you need to mention while connecting thru forms.

Bye

hi,
ORA-12154 TNS Could not reslove service name".Pls help out this issue in detail

This error bcoz of you have more than one oracle home in ur SYSTEM that is why you have to set correct "TNS_ADMIN" enviourment variable to point correct tnsnames.ora file.

ORA-03121 no interface driver connected function not performed"

ORA-03121: no interface driver connected - function not performed
Cause: This message occurs usually because the Net8 driver is not loaded into memory or there is a mismatch of the version of the driver. A user program linked with an obsolete library may also cause this message. Only programs provided by Oracle Corporation should use this interface.
Action: If the message occurred during use of a program provided by Oracle Corporation, contact Oracle Support Services. If a user program caused the message, relink the program with current versions of the Oracle libraries.

i think it should be problem bcoz of enviourment variable to have to set all variable correctly and try again ...

hope this helps
Taj

first of all you need to give your database name..you would have specified it while installation..and the next thing is the oracle service has not be started..you can start it by going to start menu--->run-->services.msc

Thanking You !

Anyway, here is my suggestion for what I understood.

Don't open SQL Plus 3.3, it is installed when you install forms 4.5. You'll get the no interface error as you described. Instead open SQL Plus which is instlled with the database.

Now check if you are able to connect to the database from SQL Plus. Use scott/tiger

Now if you are not able to connect the forms to the database and getting the TNS names error message, then do the following:

Look for tnsnames.ora file in your E: where you installed Database. It'll be in the folder named ADMIN.
Look for tnsnames.ora file in your D: where you installed Oracle Forms. It'll be again in the folder named ADMIN.

Copy the tnsnames.ora file from first location and paste it to the second location. I mean copy the file from Database Home to Forms Home.

This should resolve TNS names error issue.

Note:
If you want to install database, forms 4.5, forms, 6i, forms 9i, forms 10g on a single machine, follow this method

Install 9i/10g Database first.
Install Forms 4.5 on a different home
Check the connectivity
Install Forms 6i on a different home
Check the connectivity
Install Forms 9i on a different home
Check the connectivity
Install Forms 10g on a different home
Check the connectivity

Saadat Ahmad

Hi.
I am facing exactly same proble, but no solution till now Sad

i installed oracle 9i release 2 on windows xp professional then i installed form 6i in different home.

i copied tnsnames.ora file from ORACLE_HOME\network\admin to forms home NET80\admin folder....

Once i installed both i can see in the PATH variable both homes then bin directory....
ORACLE_HOME/bin
FORMS_HOME/bin
in these two locations you can find sqlplus.exe file, when i try to login from the command prompt like below

sqlplus "/as sysdba"

it is not going, instead it is coming to command prompt... if i remove FORMS_HOME/bin from the PATH variable i can able to do that...just keep this problem aside.
When i try to connect oracle from the forms it is giving error like "connect failed"....

could you please tell me why?
what is need to do to get rid of this?

Thanks.

I suggest that you uninstall and remove Oracle Forms. Get the database working via SQL*Plus. Then reinstall Oracle Forms (in a separate home of course), copy the database's 'tnsnames.ora' etc to the Forms version and try SQL*Plus again.

I very vagely remember an issue regarding 9i in combination with Developer 6. I remember you had to install Developer first, and then the database.
But it might have been Designer instead of Developer...

Dear Please check this may be it can help you

uninstall Oracle database and developer and make sure you cleaned your registry also.

1. Install Oracle Report 6i (in default path like orant)
2. restart computer
3. Install Oracle Form 6i ( in same folder)
4. restart computer
5. install ORacle 9i
6. restart computer

Now plz check your 9i is connecting through Scott/tiger etc
if yes
then try to connect Form6i (Oracle for windows NT--->> SQL Plus Cool

may be it'll not connect then go to
\ora92\network\admin\

find .ORA file (listner.ora, tnsnames.ora)copy these file into
your form6i path \oracle6i\NET80\ADMIN\

plz try this.

always girst install Oracle 9i on your computer. no need to restart it after its successful installation, install Oracle 6i but do not forget to change its HOME. if your home for Oracle 9i Database is Orahome91, then change the HOME of Oracle Developer to Orahome81 or anything except Orahome91.

You won't face the problem if you change the home for both.

OK....

1) Forms first and then the Database ( especially if it is a 6/6i and 9i combo )

2) Install in two different HOMEs. Dont worry, as it is it wont allow you to install on the same directory/Home.

3) REMEMBER the details of the database installation while configuring it. You need to know: the SID, the HOST name and the Interface Name. In earlier versions the first and last used to be ORCL. Host name is the name/ip address of the PC. It is a stand alone machine you can also use 127.0.0.1 as the IP.
---- interface name is what you will use for the db name at the time of logon.

4) Once the DB is installed and running log in and check it it works. Use the system user, it asks you for password at the end of the configuration so use it.

5) Not go to the NET connections of the Forms shortcuts and define a new connection/database. NOT the DB Configuration wiz, just the NET configuration of D2k.
It will run and ask you for the Host name, Port (defa 1521), SID and what name you want to give to the interface. If you want to access the db and the forms with the same name give the same interface name.

Run the test. by defa test uses scott/tiger. change this user to system and the password that you had given for the db configuration. It should log in.

If it still gives an error, Copy the TNSNAMES.ora file from the DB_HOME/NETWORK/ADMIN folder to ORANT/NET80/ADMIN or ORAFR6I/NETWORK/ADMIN OR ORAFR6I/NET80/ADMIN folder. BEFORE YOU DO THIS PLEASE KEEP A BACKUP OF THE TNSNAMES.ORA FILE FROM THE D2K FOLDER.

If it still givs an error.. open the TNSNAMES.ORA file from the NET80/ADMIN folder in notepad. Go to the end of the file and type the following:

<dbname>.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = <pcname or PC ip>)
(Port = 1521)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = <SID of the db>)
)
)

It should work now... if it still doesnt... check the CDs you got invalid stuff.

ENJOY. Cool

Hi,
Could you justify why we need to install FORM first? Because i have installed long back ORACLE first then FORMS, obviuosly it was running fine.
Now i can't do that after formating all stuffs:( I have installed windows service pack 2, will it be a problem? I just got fed up with these configuration !!!

Thanks.
