Re: Forms and Reports Server 6i minus iAS

Not as far as I know. You can only buy Forms and Reports Server by purchasing iAS Enterprise Edition. I would assume Oracle would only support them if you did the normal install. Technically, there may be a way to do your own install or to remove portions of iAS later, but that might influence your supportability.

Is it possible to install Forms and Reports Server 6i on Tru64 UNIX without installing iAS?

Can't find any references to this in the Oracle Store. They only seem to be selling iAS with Forms/Reports bundled in it. Meanwhile the Developer Suite seems to have gone the way of the do-do bird, to be replaced by the Internet Developer Suite (aka JDeveloper and other things bundled together).

Also, I checked the Tru64 iAS CDs but of course they say we have to install iAS Enterprise Edition to support Forms and Reports. IAS for Tru64 UNIX is composed of 5 CDs! I thought the NT version (3 CDs) was huge... maybe it's due to the different OS CD formats. (?)
