FRM-92101: There was a failure in the Forms Server during startup

I have come across the error (in the question title) while saving records from a form.  Now I've tried it when running my forms with my PC acting as the server (Oracle 9i OAS) and the client (via Internet Explorer browser), and also with a separate server (Oracle Application Server 10g) and my PC as the client.  This only happens when I'm inserting a new record from a secondary form that had data populated from the calling form.

For example, and application record is created then saved.  Then a button to call the corporation screen is pressed and details of the application populate fields in the corp screen.  At that point I add more data and the save.  This is when the application crashes, but the browser remains open.  Now if I modify and existing corporation from an existing application, when I save everything runs normal.

Some other details are:

Java Exception:
oracle.forms.net.ConnectionException: Forms session <18> aborted: unable to communicate with runtime process.

Now I looked at the possible solution by Oracle: "This can be confirmed by looking for a log message like "Unable to switch to Workin Directory: <workingDirectory>" in the application.log file.  I did look at the log, and saw no error like this but did see other errors


05/02/01 18:57:41 forms90web: Forms session <31> aborted: unable to communicate with runtime process.

Then saw this in the error log

that it was looking for other Java files and also some gif files (listval.gif).


The point is, is that my Oracle Home is set properly yet this error still occurs.

Any clues as to what this could be?  This is a showstopper for my app and I can't release it into QA let alone production.
