Oracle 9i on Suse Linux 10
 

Hi Everyone
Our company run Oracle Application Server to provide Browser based applications using Forms90 (think it is 9i)
I have sucessfully installed the Sun JRE on Novell's Suse Linux 10 but still cannot run the applications. the applet loads then I get the error.
(Cannot connect to server)
I know the Windows PCs we have need Jinitiator installing on the workstations to run the applications.
What do I need to do to run these web based applications on Linux?
Is there an equivalent of the Jinitiator for Linux?
Or as I suspect is it a bit more complicated than that!!!

Thanks
G.

Thanks for the reply Tinkster
Have tried it with no success at the moment.
The file pluginsreg.dat is a generated file - re-written every time I launch Firefox.
Made it read only to preserve changes.
Think it is probably the way our server is configured.
Thanks anyway
Linux learning curve rather steep !!!!

How odd .... I've never seen Mozilla or Firefox do that. They
MAY write back their own version if you have edited it while
they're running, but I didn't verify that. I've certainly experienced
this when manually editing the bookmark.html file, though.

Hi
Working now - had to go in on port 7778 and it works !
Oracle apps now working fine.
Cool hack
Thanks for the link.
I tried searching myself but didn't really know what to look for.
Now I can move on to the next hang up - remote management Snap ins for ConoleOne and I can use Linux for all my work and dump the windows box - brilliant.
