6、I run the demo?There are two known problems with Netscape: Netscape consumes so much available CPU time polling for server response, that the server actually doesnt get enough CPU time to do the server-side processing. Netscape takes a very long time to deal with embedded tables, which are used abun

12、Oracle 9i JDeveloper and Oracle 9i JDeveloper OA ExtensionAttention: The files mentioned in some of these FAQs and answers refer to documents on Windows NT. For example, T:usersfwk. If you are using Linux, the file references are different. For example, /jdevhome/users/fwk/. Following are some commo

How can I tell from which source OA Extension is getting my region data?(See Answer)9. OA Extension Preview

18、m to be out of sync.First simply try to rebuild all your projects. Always do so step by step and make sure the first project compiles completely before you start compiling the next one. If this doesnt help, then try deleting all classes from your.jdevmyclassesfolder and all subfolders. After that, r

19、ebuild all your projects again. Your source code and classes should be in sync again. (Back to Question)2.What is the difference between JDEV_HOME vs JDEV_USER_HOME?JDEV_HOME is an environment variable used by JDeveloper 3.2.3 and prior. JDEV_USER_HOME is a new environment variable used by JDevelope

20、r9i. You must define a JDEV_USER_HOME in order to run JDeveloper9i properly. JDEV_USER_HOME should point to:T:usersjdev(Back to Question)3.How do I enable OA Extension to run against the old AK repository?Modifying your env.txt file to have only the following line:FND_TOP=T:usersdbc_filesAlternative

21、ly, you can have the following three lines, where the application you want to run against AK is listed in the JRAD_APPS line preceded by a minus sign ( - ), as shown for the FND application below:FND_TOP=T:usersdbc_filesJRAD_XML_PATH=T:usersjdevmyprojectsJRAD_APPS=ak;-fnd;dem;icxThe minus sign force

22、s JDeveloper to run against the AK repository for that application. (Back to Question)4.How do I enable OA Extension to run against the new MDS repository (xml files only)?This can no longer be done. Now OA Extension searches for the region XML file on your hard drive as defined by the existence ofM

23、DS XML PATH= inProject - Project Settings -Oracle Applications. If OA Extension fails to locate the region XML file as defined byMDS XML PATHthen OA Extension proceeds to look for the regions in the MDS repository. The MDS repository exists in the database which is defined by your dbc file inProject

24、 - Project Settings - Oracle Applications - Runtime Connection. This means that there is no way to search for region XML files exclusively from your hard drive. (Back to Question)5.How do I enable OA Extension to run against the new MDS repository (database repository only)?If OA Extension fails to

25、locate the region XML file as defined byMDS XML PATHinProject - Project Settings -Oracle Applications, then OA Extension proceeds to look for the regions in the MDS repository. The MDS repository exists in the database which is defined by your dbc file inProject - Project Settings - Oracle Applicati

26、ons - Runtime Connection.Adding your application shortname forces OA Extension to use the MDS repository instead of the AK repository. (Back to Question)6.How do I enable OA Extension to run against the new MDS repository (xml files and database repository)?The settings that define what OA Extension

27、 runs against are defined inProject - Project Settings -Oracle ApplicationsandProject - Project Settings -Oracle Applications-Runtime Connection. OA Extension first checks that your application shortname is listed. If it is, OA Extension attempts to locate the region XML file in the directory locati

28、on specified byMDSXML PATH. If the region XML file cannot be found in that location then OA Extension fails over to the MDS repository. The MDS repository exists in the database defined by your dbc file. (Back to Question)7.Is there a standard directory hierarchy to follow when setting up my source

29、code and JDeveloper projects?Yes, make sure to follow the standard directory hierarchy for setting up your working directory:T:usersjdevmyprojects | myhtml | myclasses | system(Back to Question)8.How can I tell from which source OA Extension is getting my region data?If your regions are obtained fro

The last status message is starting preview and the log message displays 241 AMPoolMessageBundle (language base) being initialized.Remove your classes and perform a clean rebuild. If OA Extension cannot find a BC4J module like AM/VO, this error is thrown. (Back to Question)10.Why cant I get my pages to render correctly
