[Quoted] We are encountering the FRM-99999 error when running web-enabled forms. We have 4 NT boxes behind a load balancer that serve up our web-enabled Forms to client machines running Netscape 4.5 or IE 5.0. The servers will run without error for 2-3 weeks and then suddenly we are unable to run the web-forms from one of them. Each server encounters the same problem after running without reboot for extended period of time.
After we identify the problem machine, we look in Task Manager from NT and notice nothing unusual in terms of memory resources being consumed. What we do find unusual is that while in Task Manager, if we look at the Processes that are running, there will be many F50WEB32.EXE processes that cannot be killed using the “End Process” button. The only way we’ve found they can be killed is by rebooting the machine.
Another unusual thing about these “errant” processes is that they are very small in size (about 200K) in comparison to a normal process running the web-enabled forms (approx. 15,000-35,000K). This symptom is found consistently on a box that is producing the FRM-99999 error. Typical of NT, rebooting the machine consistently corrects the problem.
We are running the following configuration and have tested on other machines as well, always with the same result over time:
Oracle Forms 5.0
Jinitiator 1.1.5.21
Windows NT 4.0
Service Pack (tried 3.0 through 5.0 with no success)
Oracle Database Enterprise Server 8.0.5.1
Netscape Enterprise Server 3.6
Netscape Administration Server 3.5
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
