9i Forms and Reports compile problems

[lewisp]

This is on Sun SPARC 5.9 (Unix):

I am currently undergoing a conversion project - Forms and Reports 6i to 9i. The problem I am having is with the libraries. I have managed to compile and generate all the libraries I need, and I have placed the PLX's into a common directory.

I have set FORMS90_PATH and REPORTS_PATH to point to the common directory.

1) Forms will not compile unless I put the PLL of the libraies in the common directory.
2) Reports will not compile unless the PLL of the library is in the same directory as the RDF I am trying to compile.

So my questions are:

1) Why do Forms and Reports ignore the PLX's?
2) Why do the reports not pick up the libraries from REPORTS_PATH?

In the case of the second question, I have also tried REPORTS90_PATH and REPORTS60_PATH to no avail.

Thanks in advance for any assiatance.

You created forms and reports on windows environment..
When you attached libraries in windows the form or report takes the path you have given on windows location.
So try removing it.
and on Unix ignore the PATH variables and keep the forms and pll/plx files in the same directory and compile them..
