Upgrade the Forms Server

Start the upgrade assistant in the new 12.2.1.4 Oracle Home to upgrade the Forms installation.

  1. Run the following command:
    <12.2.1.4_Oracle_Home>\oracle_common\upgrade\bin\ua.bat
    
  2. Select the All Configurations Used by a Domain check box, and provide the FRDomain location.
  3. Upgrade the components in FRDomain:
    • System Components Infrastructure
    • Oracle HTTP Server
    • Oracle JRF
    • Oracle Forms Services
    • Oracle Reports Services
  4. In the Prerequisites screen, select all the check boxes.
  5. In the Examine screen, make sure all the checks have the status "ready for upgrade" or "upgrade not necessary".
  6. Click Upgrade.
  7. Start all components for FRDomain, except the report server you created for OC 5.2.1 or TMS 5.3.

    If OHS fails to start with exit status = 1 (startComponent ohs1), there is an issue in the httpd.conf files in the FRDomain.

    The httpd.conf files can be found under:

    • <12.2.1.3_Oracle_Home>\user_projects\domains\FRDomain\config\fmwconfig\components\OHS\instances\ohs1\
    • <12.2.1.3_Oracle_Home>\user_projects\domains\FRDomain\config\fmwconfig\components\OHS\ohs1\

    Note:

    Make sure the httpd.conf files have only one Listen directive for one specific port.

    Listen <machine_name>:<port_number>
