Dockerfile for Oracle Forms 12c

[alexsantos]

I've been using the docker images for Oracle Database on our development environment and now I need to test also Oracle Forms 12c.
Are there any plans on providing oficial dockerfiles for Forms also?

There are no plans to provide Dockerfiles for Forms, but thanks for showing interest.

[alexsantos]

I'll try to extend a WebLogic container for Oracle Forms and Reports then.
BTW, there are no Dockerfiles for 12.2.1.2 infrastruture. I'm doing it myself.

@alexsantos did you have much success with creating a container for Oracle Form and Reports 12c?
Just started looking at this as an option and came across your discussion.

Here in Córdoba, we are walking in the same path. ;-)
It would be nice to share the job.

[brunoborges]

If you get this working, let us know and we can link to your project from the README.

In Seville we are also triying to get working a Reports and Applications deployment clusters in managed servers. With help from some blog posts with some changes to meet our requirements:

http://robertcrames.blogspot.com.es/2017/05/how-to-install-and-configure-oracle.html

The problem right now is on the reports server that it´s not fully working, it can be started, but only shows help pages, when triying to showenv or showjobs, without set server name it gets stuck, and when server name is set as parameter, it says that server named XXXX cannot be bind.

Any idea of what are we missing on config files or install?

PD: @pacoalcaide would be great if we can contact by Hangout to share achivements and problems faced, maybe we can have success together.

Thanks for this great work.

@axl79com thanks for the URLs and when you want we can try Hangout. I tried to find you with your login "axl79com", but I could'nt.

[axl79com]

@pacoalcaide I send you and invitation with Hangouts, please accept it so we can talk.

Sorry for off topic.

Hi all, I´m @axl79com with another account. Finally I get a working Reports Server 12.2.1.0.0 container. The work isn´t finished, and some improvements can be done, so I made a project on Github so everybody can use it and share their achievements.

@pacoalcaide fell free to collaborate, I´ll review pull requests and commit them to master branch.

@brunoborges please link this project to main README, I hope the next person searching for this Reports & Forms images can easily find it.

Thanks all people working and collaborating on Oracle Docker images, they are great, and change the way we can use Oracle products on development and production environment.

Hi all,
as Robert Crames and I had developed the already mentioned script solution for Oracle Forms & Reports 12c within this thread, I took some time to convert them to a Docker solution.

Here you can find Oracle Forms & Reports 12.2.1.2.0 and Oracle Forms & Reports 12.2.1.3.0 (with Option FADS) on Docker:

Hi Mriccell,

I am using "https://github.com/oracle/docker-images/tree/master/OracleFMWInfrastructure" container to build the "12.2.1.3" version of the fusion Middleware infrastructure. However when I trying to do "docker run" I am getting following error.
