Symptoms

 E-Business Suite 12.2, Forms for App Technology

When accessing the forms with using IE8 and higher, opening 2nd forms applet fails with the following error:

ERROR
FRM-92101: There was a failure in the Forms Server during startup.
This could happen due to invalid configuration.
Please look into the web-server log file for details.

Details.

STEPS
1. Open a IE browser window
2. Login to EBS 12.2 environment
3. Open a Form - opens successfully
4. Without closing first forms session click another forms based function or any forms link from workflow notification from Self Service Web Access page.
5. The previous forms applet closes abruptly and new applet session is opened which shows FRM-92101 with exception stack as provided above. In some cases new applet will launch fine but would have closed previous applet, which is not desired way.

Changes

 Customer uses custom jars. He passed these custom jars in any other archive parameter other than userjarfile.e.g. archive2
