Has anyone been able to get Oracle Forms running JInitator to loan in Internet Explorer 8 yet? I have tried removing all add-ons, various version of Java, add the domain to the trusted sites using wildcards, and using compatibility mode to no avail. I am looking to get our Oracle guys to kick there Internet Explorer 6 habit. This is related to Oracle E-Business.
To solve this problem you need to replace the file C:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator x.x.x.xx\bin\hotspot\jvm.dll with the sun version of the file.
On my system the sun version is here C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll
Replacing the jvm.dll did not work for me. The proper way to switch to Sun's Java VM which worked for me is by changing this
baseHTMLjinitiator=basejini.htm
to
this
baseHTMLjinitiator=basejpi.htm
in the formsweb.cfg file. IE8 on XP SP3, DEP enabled.
Yes as of now IE8 is not certified for Oracle Apps. You may hear a good news soon!
I have successfully installed Oracle Forms 10g on Windows7 and get both JPI and Jinitiator working.
Steps
Install Dev10g
Apply Patch p5983622_10123_WINNT
Manually install JRE 1.6 upd 20
Configure formsweb.cfg for JPI
This is preferred method as you don't have to do following steps on each client
If you want to run using Jinitiator
Configure formsweb.cfg for Jinitiator
Once Jinitiator is installed on client machine replace jvm.dll
As Mundit has said, it is still not certified.
Do you have access to Metalink? Note: 760326.1 When Will IE 8 Be Certified With E-Bussines Suite? gives some further information.
A colleague of mine told me to do the following:
Add server to Trusted Sites and then:
Tools / Internet options
Security tab -> Trusted Sites
Click on Custom level... button
scroll to the end and find "Enable XSS filter" option (3rd from the bottom)
set it to Disable
This works for me with 11i and R12 apps.
Good luck!
One thing to add to Simon's solution. I did the trick on one computer but couldn't repeat it on a second one. Finally, I discovered that replacing the file does not work when using the file jvm.dll from java 6 update 14. It worked fine when I used the jvm.dll file from version 13.
You guys are great! I was pulling my hair off their roots and now got it fixed.
I went to Control Panel/System/Advanced tab/Startup and Recovery panel hit Settings. Then in the System Startup panel hit Edit. There made noexecute=AlwaysOff and saved.
As per Simon I swapped the Oracle jvm.dll with the Java version. I had to downgrade that to jvm.dll version 10.0.0.23 though.
Also as per Simon I went to Tools/Internet Options/Security/Trusted Sites/Custom Level and disabled Enable XSS Filter.
Not sure whether #1 applies to everyone but it was necessary for me. Good Luck!

Here's something even more intersting about JINIT. It was de-supported by Oracle as of July 31st. You might want to consider moving to the SUN JPI instad. This is the recommended route by Oracle now, and since JINIT will not be getting updates it's the safest.
Install the latest JRE from Sun. I have installed "jre-6u10-windows-i586-p-s.exe".
Copy the jvm.dll (appx Ver 11.0.0.15 size 2.25 MB (2,359,296 bytes)) from the “C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client” folder and paste it to folder where the Jinitiator is installed (default location) e.g “C:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.22\bin\hotspot”.
It will work fine with the IE8 browser.
Thanks for the help.
We're having a similiar problem.
I believe Oracle is aware of this, and is working on a patch, which is not ready yet.

I have downloaded a fresh copy of sqldeveloper (sqldeveloper-4.1.3.20.78-no-jre) from the Oracle website. When I unzip it and lauch the GUI, I keep getting the following error message:
Warning - could not install some modules: Dynamic Module Config - No
module providing the capability org.netbeans.Netbinox could be found.
My system:
Windows 7 32 bit Hp Probook.
Jdk 1.6 , 1.7, 1.8 available in java/jdk
subdirectory.
Netbeans 8.0.2 installed
Finally got the way out after some dirty hours. Initially I extracted the sqldeveloper zip in a nested directory.
i.e: E://A/B/C/sqldeveloper.
starting sqldeveloper gui from the above directory threw erros.
Solution:
Go in C:\users**UserName**\AppData\Roaming : delete SQL Developer and sqldeveloper folders
Extract the Sql Developer zip in a new non nested directory. i.e: E://
Start it and should work now
Reference: https://community.oracle.com/thread/3870680?start=0&tstart=0
This is a very old post but I have had the same issue recently on version 22.2, and this might help.
WARNING: You may lose important settings with this solution.
Try deleting the system cache under C:\Users<your_user_name>\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\{whatever}
(or simply everything in that folder). This solved the problem for me, but obviously you do lose configuration settings, connections, and so on, ie, everything you've ever done in SQL Developer - so be careful.
In my case it was enough to change JDK pass to Java 8 in the
C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\sqldeveloper\19.2.1\product.conf file:
SetJavaHome C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_202
I have Java 13 as default and although SQL developer complained at startup it worked OK with it until I started it and went away from the computer, so I missed the warning screen. After that it started to show the "could not install the modules" error.
For those that are working on a linux machine, for me worked just changing the jdk version that I'm currently using. I change went to the path usr/lib/jvm/ and look for the versions that my pc have. Then in ~/.sqldeveloper/"yourversion"/product.conf I changed the Java home to java-8-openjdk (It was using the 11 version)
In my case renaming/deleting only this folder was good enough:
C:\Users*username*\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer\system22.2.0.173.2018
This way I could still import old connections after starting sqldeveloper again
Based on This I just deleted mypath\sqldeveloper\netbeans\platform\modules\org-netbeans-core-windows.jar and it works fine for me.
I found that I was getting this error after I reinstalled java while keeping an instance of sqldeveloper running.
After I ended the running instance, then I could start a new instance.
This is tricky, so when the could not install some modules board shows up, click the disable modules and continue, then immediately open the app again it should work :)))
The solution in my case was to unzip the SQL developer in a directory without special characters.
At first, I had exported it in a directory that included the hash (#) symbol.
I now have it in a nested directory again, without any special characters, and it works as expected.
I tried to download Java on my laptop (which has windows 10) but i keep getting a 1603 error. My computer used to have windows 8.1 and it did not work back then either
I appreciate any advice to solve or work around this problem
I have had this problem. I was able to fix it thanks to a co-worker. The problem started happening after I installed HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT, aka QTP). Installing this product changes the Windows environment variables used by Java. He told me the following: "So change the names of JAVA_OPTIONS, IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS to something else (both in system and user variables) and delete any Java folder(in Program Files (x86) or Program Files) which gets installed despite the error. Restart the system and then try installing Java."
Actually, all I did was rename the environment variables and run the installer. This worked.
My answer is not related to win 10, but might help someone who is having similar problem in windows 7 machine and not able to install jre 32 bit version.
the work around to this is once you downloaded the jre, copy the path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_121\bin\javaw.exe" and paste it under java runtime environment settings which is found -Java Control panel>java>view
I think you downloaded the wrong version. If your laptop support x64 bit software you should download Java 1.8 x64 version.
Here is the link.

I had this problem for a month now. I tried everything on my windows 8, but I couldn't get the latest java on it. When I tried to install java on an empty computer, the 64 bit version did not go through (error 1603) and I realized the problem didn't come from an old java install and I install 32 bit. it worked on the new computer with windows 7 and on my computer running 8.1.
note: I had deleted all the java versions before going through with it.
To fix java 1603 error you have to follow few simple steps.
First of all remove all old java version.
Then remove some windows update file which might be reason of this
error. Like KB2918614 update.
After that download and Install latest version of java and activate
java in browser. Now everything will be fine you can test the java
version on java website...
For explained and easy solution to java 1603 error follow this link: http://protechguides.com/java-error-code-1603-solved/
I encountered this error on Windows 8.1 and when I checked with Oracle web site, they said that is is not yet resolved, and under investigation. They also showed a link for off-line installation as an alternative arrangement. However, upon investigation of my system, i found out that the available space in C drive was only about 20 MB or so. I cleared my system and provided enough space. When I tried with the extra space, I didn't encounter any error. May be, you could try with a better free space...
First you should close the browser because if any webpage will use Java, it will cause conflict. Then do custom installation, i.e. install in some other folder other than default folder and point environment variable to newly installed Java location. It will resolve your issue.
Is it possible to use the 64bit XulRunner for Windows (available from here) with the Eclipse browser widget? It works fine under 32bit Windows and the answer to this question explains how this works. But when I try this under 64bit Windows I get the following exception:
org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not

Thanks for help,

Edit:
I found it in the Eclipse bug-tracker (link here):
swt's 64-bit Windows port does not have xulrunner support because mozilla.org does not provide a 64-bit xulrunner on Windows
But as the last comment on this bug says, there is a 64bit XulRunner available
Yes, XULRunner support on Windows x86_64 is now in place for the upcoming Eclipse/SWT 4.3 release.
Regarding the XPCOM error 0x80004005, if you're trying to use XULRunner 3.6.x (like the poster in the other question) then support for this was released even more recently, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=406912 .
So I came here with similar problem: trying to run DJ Project browser within Java Swing - more specifically within that the Mozilla XPCOM Download Manager sample which requires SWT and XULRunner.
Following the eclipse bug link in your OP - I found another (eclipse bugzilla) - looks like this has been a long-standing issue (only 5+ years!!) - which is actually now (as of 11/4/13 - 2 days ago!) fixed.
I have downloaded SWT package from Eclipse nightly builds and I can confirm it does now contain the swt-xulrunner-win32-xxxx.dll. Unfortunately I now have other problems stopping my test working, but thought I'd post what I'd found here.
Edit:
Actually my problem now is identical to this XPCOM error 0x80004005
I realize that this question is old and already has an accepted answer, but in regards to the XPCOM error 0x80004005, I may be able to help.
With 64-bit 4.3 SWT I was able to fix this exception by using XULRunner version 1.9.2.25 runtimes. Originally I found the download from here: https://osdn.net/projects/sfnet_runawfe/downloads/SRC%20and%20BIN%20files/extras/xulrunner-1.9.2.25-win64.zip/
However, I have also re-hosted it as xulrunner-1.9.2.25.en-US.win64.zip.

So, I've discovered that some of my Java web apps have stopped functioning after applying the java update released by Apple on October 16th, 2012.
The tech notes indicate that Apple has removed the web app plug-in from OS X and that you need to download it from Oracle directly.
The problem with this is that Oracle only offers a 7x version of the plug-in and my apps require a 6x version, which I haven't been able to find.
So, can anybody point me to where I could find a copy of JavaAppletPlugin.plugin that I believe existed in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ prior to being destroyed?
And no, there is no chance that the vendor will be providing an updated version of the software which is compatible with Java 7 anytime soon.
Thanks All.
Same problem, google chrome for mac is 32-bit and do not support Java 7.
Try this:
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Java/Support/CoreDeploy.bundle/Contents/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
It took a while to find this, but the solution to this issue can be found via this helpdesk article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559
Here something important to note. I've found that even after following these steps I still have problems when attempting to open a .jnlp file from within the Mac OSX user interface. To successfully load a java web start program, you'll probably have to switch to the terminal then execute the following code (username$ is just the prompt for terminal newbies):
username$ javaws /path/to/file.jnlp
Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Have you tried http://sourceforge.net/projects/javaplugin/
You could also try manually copying the old version of the plugin package over the new one.
I was using oracle forms in WEB Windows XP with IE6 it was working well with J initiator. Now I switched to Windows 7 with IE9 I installed Jinitator but, IE is crashing.
Any solution ?
There are several solutions for this.
Ditch jinitiator and switch to JRE 1.6.0_37.
Works on Windows XP and Windows 7 and Linux (REHL 5/6 AND FEDORA 17*).
Browsers tested IE7/8/9, chrome, firefox, safari.
What kind/version of application server are you using?
What kind/version of forms are you using?
*) YES You can install oracle 11.2.0.2 database, Weblogic 10.3.6 and Forms 11.1.2.0.0 on Fedora 17
You should realize why in the past you should have used jinitiator and not a jre version. So here is some background:
When webforms gave birth oracle had a lot of bugs regarding to the java runtime. In that time java was from Sun and they didn't want to solve all the issues regarding oracle webforms. So instead of pushing Sun (if Oracle even could do that at that moment) they had the idea of doing the work themselves. So Jinitiator was the product to solve all these issues.
In the meantime Sun fixed all the problems (or at least most of them in the end of version 1.5 and the beginning of version 1.6 of java runtime), so jinitiator was becoming absolute.
At this moment java development is from Oracle and not anymore from Sun so all the problems will certainly be resolved and jinitiator can disappear from this world.
So the solution to you're problem is indeed install java runtime version in windows 7.
Hope this answer will give all of you a better insight in this matter.
I only can offer you to try Netscape browser, on Windows 7 i am running Oracle Forms with Netscape and it works well.
I tried the below and it worked.
Install Jinitiator as normal, if your having problems actually getting it to install, just use the Win7 ‘compatibility mode’ to get it to stay on your machine instead of it annoyingly uninstalling itself at the end of a failed install process.
Now
Replace the jvm.dll in jinitiator directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.13\bin\hotspot\) with this file jvm.dll.
Restart IE* and try again, Windows 7 should reduce your color scheme and your app should now work.
