| Issue | Likely Cause | Resolution | |-------|--------------|------------| | Installer fails to start | Missing JDK 8 or 64‑bit requirement | Install Oracle JDK 8 (64‑bit) and set JAVA_HOME . On Linux, ensure the binary is executable. | | RCU cannot connect to the database | Firewall or insufficient database privileges | Check network connectivity and use a SYSDBA user. Verify that the database listener is running. | | Forms Servlet returns 404 | formsapp.ear not deployed correctly | In the WebLogic Console, redeploy formsapp.ear to WLS_FORMS . | | Reports Server does not start | Reports configuration missing | Run the Configuration Wizard again and ensure that Reports Server components are selected. | | Configuration Wizard does not show Forms template | Forms & Reports installed in a different Oracle Home | Re‑install Forms & Reports into the Oracle Home as Fusion Middleware Infrastructure. |
