Hi

I just want to clarify when we run reports in the local machine, (i.e. Call report from Forms)
what should be the report server(How to find there report server name). Do we have to do any configuration there. (For paper layout and Web layout)

How it change when deploy it in the report server in a separate machine?

You create the report server (on your PC) using the RWSERVER command. For example (at the command prompt):
rwserver server=my_rep_server start


In order to run the application on the web, I guess that you should use Application Server (with Reports and Forms services installed). Perhaps you'll find this document interesting: Integrating Oracle Reports in Oracle Forms Services applications.

Hi Littlefoot


Quote:

rwserver server=my_rep_server start


When I tried the above window shows with the message
Quote:

Report Server is starting up


And then gives the below alert
The procedure entry point psoasyn could not be located in the dynamic link library orapls10.dll


And after press OK then it it gives the below message
Quote:

Server is shutting down



What could be the reason

Find rwserver executable. Change working directory to the one that contains rwserver. Try again.

For example:
> cd c:\oracle\dev_suite\bin
> rwserver server=my_rep_server start

I was able to up the server as per your solution.. Smile

Further can you just clarify whether this is 'in process' server?

Because according to the docs there are 2 report servers i.e. in process and separate report server runs in its own process

But in process server starts only through report servlet. No need to execute a command.

Sorry, I wouldn't know that (without reading the documentation, but I can't do that now. You could, though).

Hi Littlefoot

I insert the following code for report call

DECLARE
	repid REPORT_OBJECT;
	v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
	rep_status VARCHAR2(20);

BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REP_OBJ');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);

SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,report_filename,'D:\Rep\rpt_authors.rdf');
				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,ASYNCHRONOUS);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'HTMLCC');				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'repserver90');				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no'); 

		WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
		LOOP
		rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
		END LOOP;
		message (v_rep);
		IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
		/*Display report in the browser*/
		WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://shabar-pc:8889/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
		substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repserver90','_blank');
		ELSE
		message('Error when running report');
		END IF;

PAUSE;
END;



But I get the following error

FRM-41213: Unable to connect to the Report server repserver90.


(All runs in one machine)


Any solution....

Is there report server named "repserver90" created on your computer?

Yes. it's under the path 
D:\DevSuiteHome\reports\conf


I guess this is not the in-process server.

yes

Can we apply both below methods to call paper layout or web lay out

1. WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT()
2. RUN_REPORT_OBJECT()

WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT seems to be preferred option (at least, that's what I've learned from David (djmartin) at Forms forum.

Hi

I changed the code as follows and was able to open the report on the browser.

DECLARE
	repid REPORT_OBJECT;
	v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
	rep_status VARCHAR2(20);

BEGIN
repid := FIND_REPORT_OBJECT('REP_OBJ');

SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(report_id,report_filename,'D:\Rep\rpt_authors.rdf');
				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,ASYNCHRONOUS);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'HTML');				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'repserver90');				SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no'); 

v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);

		WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
		LOOP
		rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
		END LOOP;
		message (v_rep);
		IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
		/*Display report in the browser*/
		WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://shabar-pc:8889/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
		substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repserver90','_blank');
		ELSE
		message('Error when running report');
		END IF;


END;


There I changed the code position of run_object_status

and changed report_desformat to 'HTML'



Thax littlefoot for your time. Smile

Reason Hi How to close a post in the forum and make it as resolved. Thanx Rgds Shabar


Just reply to the answer that solves your problem telling it solves it.
If there is no reply that directly answers your problem, post the solution you found.

By the way, if ask something using "Report message to a moderator" link but disable PM it is hard to answer you directly.

Regards
Michel
