FRM-92101: Forms Server Not Starting Up

Forms Server Not Starting Up / Forms Server Start Up Issue

Applies to:

            Oracle Enterprise Linux – Version: 5

            Oracle EBS R12

Description:

            After cloning EBS R12 successfully on a new server machine, when I am going to access any form on EBS clone it did not open the page and show the following error:

FRM-92101: Forms Server
Java Exception:
oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException: Forms session <1> failed during startup: no response from runtime process
at oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException.createConnectionException(Unknown Source)
at oracle.forms.net.HTTPNStream.getResponse(Unknown Source)

I have restarted all the services of application and database but the problem is same. I have also restarted the whole machine/server but still the same issue.

Cause and Solution:

I found the following error:

In $LOG_HOME/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/<oacore>/<oacore>_<default_group_1>/application.log

$LOG_HOME/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/<forms>/<forms>_<default_group_1>/application.log

The above issue caused due to the incorrect version or missing of openmotif21 package.

Please check the oracle document 402310.1 Oracle Applications Installation and Upgrade Notes

in order to identify the missing RPM.

After installing the required RPM openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5 above problem has been resolved.
