Cause
This is a known issue for 12.2 release. The issue is caused because of special instructions for formsapp.ear as stated in readme file.

These readme instructions are based on a Standalone Forms Server and not a Forms Server used in an Oracle E-Business Suite environment.

The SPECIAL INSTRUCTION FOR formsapp.ear is not required for Oracle E-Business Suite Applications.

Solution
SPECIAL INSTRUCTION FOR formsapp.ear can safely be ignored as this does not pertain to the EBS Applications. These steps can also be ignored for EBS installs.

Fusion Middleware patches sometimes have instructions that are not relevant for EBS.

Environment
+ Oracle Linux 7.5
+ Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.0
+ Middletier iAS (Forms & Reports Server) 10.1.2.3.0
