But could not do it automatically for you, due to some issues.
For details refer the log files.
Follow Note: 397174.1 to redeploy Forms manually.

Solution:


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1. Set Applications environment and stop instance processes

cd /d01/apps/apps_st/appl
. ./APPStxkr12d2.env
cd $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME
. ./adstpall.sh

Step 2. Change oc4jadmin password (conditional)

Note: This step is only required if the oc4jadmin account password is not known


2.1. Back up the original system-jazn-data.xml file.

cp $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/forms/config/system-jazn-data.xml $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/forms/config/system-jazn-data.xml.ori

2.2. Change oc4jadmin password

vi $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/forms/config/system-jazn-data.xml

========= file snippet original =================

oc4jadmin
OC4J Administrator
oc4jadmin

==================================================

========= with change ============================

oc4jadmin
OC4J Administrator
oc4jadmin

OC4J Administrator
!welcome

===================================================

:wq!

Step 3. Run deployment script.

$FND_TOP/bin/txkrun.pl -script=CfgOC4JApp
Enter Application name for re-deployment ? forms
Enter Oc4j Instance password for re-deployment ? welcome (or current password)
Run Autoconfig ? No


Step 4. Carry out post-deployment tasks

1. If (conditional) Step 2 was needed, restore the original system-jazn-data.xml file that you backed up.

2. Run AutoConfig on the instance by running the command:
$ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adautocfg.sh

3. Start the appropriate services on the instance by running the command:
$ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstrtal.sh

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



When using Note 397174.1 Step 3 requires the following script to be run:


You will get following error Step 3
