I'm trying to call a report 9i from forms 9i. It always worked for me and i've not had trouble with 9i. For some reason with the new laptop toshiba *same config as old laptop: windows XP and developer suite 9i* I am unable to open the new form using the same code.

I get an HTTP404 Error not found page. The dialog box that appears when there is an error "FRM:41214: Unable to run form" doesn't even appear. However, I can make it appear if i put wrong settings on purpose. I'm sure the code is right, but don't know what exactly is wrong?

Like I said, I get the HTTP404 Error not found page directly without being prompted for the FRM:41214 dialog box!

Thx! for any feedback.

This doesn't work for me:

WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://localhost:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid' || substr(v_report_job_id, v_server_length +2) || '?server=' || v_rep_server, '_blank');


But the below seems to work!! Problem solved! just neede to change localhost to 127.0.0.1. I've know idea why? ><...but thx!

WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://127.0.0.1:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid' || substr(v_report_job_id, v_server_length +2) || '?server=' || v_rep_server, '_blank');

@aymanzone

Please don't post the same question in multiple threads!

Try "WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet?' || substr(v_report_job_id, etc"

Both

"WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet?' || substr(v_report_job_id, etc"

And

WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://127.0.0.1:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid' || substr(v_report_job_id, v_server_length +2) || '?server=' || v_rep_server, '_blank');

Are working. I am curious to know why when using "localhost" it doesn't work? Anyone know why?

Btw david, I didn't post the question on two threads. The intent was to merely help another person who had a similar problem. Hence, replying to his thread.

Try making the following change in your Internet Explorer settings. Go to Tools > Internet Options > Connection / LAN Settings and set 'Bypass Proxy server for local addresses' to 'checked'.
