What is FORMS60_CATCHTERM(R11)/FORMS_CATCHTERM(R12)?
FORMS60_CATCHTERM is an environment setting that enables (value = 1 by default) or disables (value = 0) the Forms abnormal termination handler which catches middle tier crashes and cleans up by removing temp files, closing db connections and writing diagnostic info to the dump file or the forms server log file.
The Forms signal handler can be disabled to troubleshoot spinning/hanging f60webmx processes.
