R12 Bug: Compiling forms manually

Today I received a request to recompile a form. In R12 the method has changes slightly... In 11.5.x I used f60gen but in R12 you now have to use the executable frmcmp_batch.sh. For details see Note: 130686.1.

However, when I executed frmcmp_batch.sh I received an error:

[applmgr@myserver VIS]$ frmcmp_batch.sh module=./apps/apps_st/appl/au/12.0.0/forms/US/QPXPRLST.fmb 
userid=apps/apps@VIS output_file=./apps/apps_st/appl/qp/12.0.0/forms/US/QPXPRLST.fmx

Form not created

I checked my environment and everything seemed ok. Sqlplus worked fine, etc. A Metalink search turned up Note: 431324.1 Manual forms compilation In R12 fails. Even tho the error isn't the same, it shows that frmcmp_batch.sh is also affected.

I haven't applied the patch yet because I could still use adadmin to recompile the form. But if I start receiving alot of requests then I will put it in.
