Note:

The Oracle Forms Services installation includes numerous tools intended to be used for administering and controlling the environment. Except where instructed otherwise, these tools should be used when configuration changes are necessary. Similar is true when starting or stopping any of the servers associated with the WLS Domain. Attempting to make configuration changes directly (manually) within any of the configuration files or attempting to control the servers using operating system commands is not recommended. Doing so can result in configuration inconsistencies or corruption that may cause unpredictable behavior or an inability to restart or stop servers.
