Kill Oracle 11i or R12 FORM Java/JInitiator Session

Here is a common problem, Oracle EBusiness Suite users have ... You opened a Forms window. You searched for a specific data or LOV Results. The page is trying to open the new results, but hanging for a long time. What is the way out?

Solution: Oracle forms are displayed by JInitiator - an Oracle developed custom Java Application. To start a new session afresh, we need to kill Java Executable program and the browser program (Eg: internet Explorer).

Steps:
1. Open Windows Command prompt (Start -> Run -> <cmd> -> <ENTER>)

2. Run the following command to kill all java sessions: (This will kill JInitiator windows)
taskkill /f /im java.exe

3. Run the following command to kill all browser sessions: (This will kill Internet Explorer windows. If you use any browser other than IE, please change the command accordingly.)
taskkill /f /im iexplore.exe

4. Close Command Prompt

This solution will work for all versions of Oracle Applications (R12 and 11i). But this will work only when you access Apps using Microsoft Windows :)

Note: This process will terminate ALL Browser sessions in the machine. Make sure that all the possible data saved before running the command. This will also help to get rid of all Oracle Sessions and Cookie effects.
