Launching an Oracle Apps Forms with JWS in Linux Mint

Launching an Oracle Apps Forms in Linux Mint 

In this post I am going to share how to open Oracle EBS forms in Linux Mint. Note:  The EBS should be JWS enabled to make it work.

1) Remove any other version installed.

sudo apt remove openjdk-11-jdk-headless sudo apt remove jdk-11.0.9 #(installed this manually in a distant past apparently) sudo apt remove openjdk-8-jre-headless


2) Install Open JDK 8
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless

3) Verify Version

himanshu@himanshu-LIFEBOOK-A555:~/Downloads$ java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_312"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_312-8u312-b07-0ubuntu1~20.04-b07)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.312-b07, mixed mode)

4) Install package for JAVA Web Start(javaws)

sudo apt install icedtea*

himanshu@himanshu-LIFEBOOK-A555:/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64$ javaws --version
selected jre: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
icedtea-web 1.8 (1.8)



5) If you see below error then repoint the default java pointer

WARNING: package javax.jnlp not in java.desktop

cd /usr/lib/jvm/

sudo unlink default-java
 sudo ln -s java-8-openjdk-amd64 default-java

6)  Set Environment

~/Downloads$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 ~/Downloads$ unset -v GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID ~/Downloads$ unset -v XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP

7) Fix Java Security

sudo vi /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/jre/lib/security/java.security

These lines must be commented:

#jdk.jar.disabledAlgorithms=MD2, MD5, RSA keySize < 1024, \
#      DSA keySize < 1024, include jdk.disabled.namedCurves
8) Update JVM path in ICEDTEA control Panel

launch Control Panel

himanshu@himanshu-LIFEBOOK-A555:/usr/lib/jvm$ itweb-settings




9) Launch frmservlet.jnlp file

javaws ./frmservlet.jnlp

WebLogic migration to OCI using WDT tool

WebLogic migration to OCI using WDT tool Oracle WebLogic Deploy Tool (WDT) is an open-source project designed to simplify and streamline the management of Oracle WebLogic Server domains. With WDT, you can export configuration and application files from one WebLogic Server domain and import them into another, making it a highly effective tool for tasks like migrating on-premises WebLogic configurations to Oracle Cloud. This blog outlines a detailed step-by-step process for using WDT to migrate WebLogic resources and configurations. Supported WLS versions Why Use WDT for Migration? When moving Oracle WebLogic resources from an on-premises environment to Oracle Cloud (or another WebLogic Server), WDT provides an efficient and reliable approach to: Discover and export domain configurations and application binaries. Create reusable models and archives for deployment in a target domain. Key Pre-Requisites Source System: An Oracle WebLogic Server with pre-configured resources such as: Applica...

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database Validating the Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) wallet password is crucial, especially when ensuring that the password is correct without using the OPEN or CLOSE commands in the database. This blog post explains a straightforward method to validate the TDE password using the mkstore utility. Steps to Validate TDE Wallet Password Follow these steps to validate the TDE wallet password: Step 1: Copy the Keystore/Wallet File Navigate to your existing TDE wallet directory. Copy only the ewallet.p12 file to a new directory. If a cwallet.sso file exists, do not copy it . The absence of cwallet.sso ensures that the wallet does not use auto-login, forcing the utility to prompt for the password. Step 2: Validate Using mkstore Use the mkstore utility to check the contents of the wallet file. The mkstore utility will prompt you for the TDE wallet password, allowing you to validate its correctness. Command Syntax To display the conten...
