Hi all.
This is an Oracle Forms 12c (12.2.1.3) installation on Oracle Linux.
Could you please explain the difference, if any, between idleTimeout and FORMS_TIMEOUT? .As you know you can set those in different config files.
Currently I have set this value for FORMS_TIMEOUT in a .env file: FORMS_TIMEOUT=180. But on formsweb.cfg idleTimeout= is null
We are facing orphan frmweb process on the OS size. I say “orphan” because you can not see those processes ID on Forms User Sessions. I mean, I can grab one frmweb process ID at OS level and I do not find it as user sessions on this page.
I´m having hard time to differenciate those session from “real orphan” sessions at the OS level. Normally, orphan session has parent ID 1, but this is not the case. I'm suspecting these session are being terminated at Database Level due to a profile setting, and once these are terminated, they become orphan frmweb sessions. I have not confirm this yet.
I want to know if I need to align forms timeout with profile setting at DB side, and how hearbeat, FORMS_TIMEOUT and idleTimeout relate.
The genesis of this is an occasional “No more applications can be opened at the same time”. I have detected these “orphan frmweb sessions”.
Also, please if there is another WLS_FORMS parameter that controls the maximum number of concurrent sessions, please, elaborate on this as well.
Thanks in advance!!!
