SOLUTION Steps is only for EBS R12.2 instance :

1.) Go to the specific concerned form window, click (menu) Help > About Oracle Applications, find out value to FORMS_TRACE_DIR and Forms Process ID:

FORMS_TRACE_DIR: scroll to section of ‘Forms Server Environment Variables’

Forms Process ID: scroll to section of ‘Forms Server’

NOTE: If the Forms Process ID is not visible, then make sure that the system profile 'FND: Diagnostics' is set to YES as documented in Note 438274.1

2.) Source the instance app tier environment file /…/EBSapps.env, and go to directory of FORMS_TRACE_DIR
