Purpose

 

NOTE: MAKING THE MODIFICATIONS IN THIS NOTE AFFECTS THE SECURITY PROFILE OF THE INSTALLATION.  ORACLE DOES NOT RECOMMEND THESE STEPS AS IT RELAXES THE PERMISSIONS ON THE INSTALLED BINARIES.   YOU SHOULD REVIEW THESE STEPS, CONSIDER THE IMPLICATIONS, AND TEST CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO IMPLEMENT THEM.
Regarding Forms 11g , there are no documented steps other than <Note 427548.1> How To Compile Forms On iAS 10.1.2.x.x As Non Oracle User On Unix Platforms.


Trying to compile Forms with a non-oracle users is not possible "by default" in Forms version 9.0.4 to 10.1.2.3.
The explanation and solution for this behavior is presented in <Note 561334.1> - How To Compile and Run Forms with a User Different from Oracle?

The goal of this note is to present a "step by step" troubleshooting guide for the most common, access rights related, errors that may be encountered while implementing the more restrictive solution from the above note.
