Browse for files through oracle forms placed in unix server

I use a forms application where I develop the forms(Oracle 6i) in windows server and compile(Oracle 9i) the same in Unix server.
The whole forms application executables are placed in Unix.
My requirement is to upload data from excel sheet to oracle tables using Oracle forms. I have developed the form.
The scenario is when I click on the UPLOAD button in the form it should browse for the file to be uploaded.
With windows application its working but not with the unix application.

I want the same thing for the application in Unix server also. In the Unix application when I click on the UPLOAD button nothing is happening

The code written behind the UPLOAD button is
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Code:
DECLARE 
   lv_dirname   VARCHAR2(255); 
   lv_filename  VARCHAR2(255); 
BEGIN 
        
   tool_env.getvar('DEMO20', lv_dirname); 
   lv_dirname  := 'c:\'; 
   lv_filename := get_file_name(lv_dirname, NULL, 'ESN List (*.txt)|*.txt|' ); 
   IF lv_filename IS NOT NULL THEN 
      :FILENAME := lv_filename; `
   END IF; 
    
    
END;

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What changes I have to do for the same thing to happen in forms which is connected to unix server.
I want the equivalent code which does the same for the forms placed in the Unix server
Please help on this issue.

Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm)

NAME
Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle - An oracle specific Handle object SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle that compensates for some of the idiosyncrasies of Oracle. METHODS
connect PARAMHASH: Driver, Database, Host, User, Password Takes a paramhash and connects to your DBI datasource. database_version Returns value of ORA_OCI constant, see "Constants" in DBD::Oracle. insert Takes a table name as the first argument and assumes that the rest of the arguments are an array of key-value pairs to be inserted. build_dsn PARAMHASH Takes a bunch of parameters: Required: Driver, Database or Host/SID, Optional: Port and RequireSSL Builds a dsn suitable for an Oracle DBI connection blob_params column_NAME column_type Returns a hash ref for the bind_param call to identify BLOB types used by the current database for a particular column type. The current Oracle implementation only supports ORA_CLOB types(112). apply_limits STATEMENTREF ROWS_PER_PAGE FIRST_ROW takes an SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return ROWS_PER_PAGE starting with FIRST_ROW; distinct_query STATEMENTREF takes an incomplete SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return a DISTINCT result set.
