Running 10g Form Locally / Data Execution Prevention and IE8

Data Execution Prevention and IE8 ?


If you are still getting the DEP issues with jInitiator combined with IE8 and WinXP SP3, try the following. Fixed it for me right away. It essentually turns DEP off in IE 8. See Microsoft page on DEP, IE8, WinXP SP3: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd371730(VS.85).aspx


1.     Open Internet Explorer 8
2.     Go to Tools, Internet Options
3.     Click on the Advanced tab.
4.     Scroll down into the Security section and find “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks”.
5.     Uncheck “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks”.
6.     Click Ok and Ok again.
7.     Reboot your computer.

Perform the following steps:

1) Go to Start --> Programs --> Oracle developer suite DevSuite1 --> forms developer --> Start OC4J instance.
2) A black screen will open and at the bottom of it, "initialized" is writen.
3) Compile your form and genertate it (Cntrl+Shift+K after it press Cntrl+T)
4) Fmx file will be generated.
5) Open internet explorer
6) Write in the address bar following line :

http://:8889/forms/frmservlet?form=

7) Form will run !!

try this method. Since forms 10g are web based forms therefore there is no .exe file. We have to run them from internet explorer via OC4J Instance.
