Filed overlap with oracle reports 6i

We have Oracle financials 11.5.7;
we decided to convert some reports to have PDF output.
We have bilingual reports ; it means we have two label with PL-SQL to display
the good label depending on the language).
The report run correctly in english; however in French we heave two labels
than overlap each one.
Do you have any idea ; where are the error
Thanks
Marc

Hi Marc,
Try out the following workarounds, that may solve your issue.
1. Extend the size of the label.ie. make it as big, in such a way that it should hold for the French characters also.
2. Try using the property 'Vertical/Horizontal' elasticity in the property inspector of the particular field/label.
Thanks,
Vidya

Help needed for MySQL 5 database DSN less connection with Oracle reports

Hi,
I am using Oracle Develper Suite and java (J2EE) for my application. I am using MySql 5 as database tool. I want to use Oracle reports of Oracle Develper suite. I have created some reports by first creating system DSN for MySql database and then connect Oracle reports to that DSN by "jdbc:odbc" connection string provided in Oracle Report developer wizard. This is working fine.
I want to generate reports without creating system DSN (DSN less) so that i can use my application on any computer without creating DSN for Oracle Reports. I am deploying my application on OC4j as "EAR" file.
Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards.

Using an 8i client, you will need to configure the tnsnames.ora file with appropriate connection information if you are using local naming. If you are using host naming or something like an Oracle Names server to resolve TNS aliases, you can skip the tnsnames.ora configuration. A default installation of the Oracle client, though, will probably be using local naming.
If the tnsnames.ora file is configured, or you have configured an alternate way of resolving TNS aliases, you should be able to use the connection string
DRIVER={Oracle ODBC Driver};DBQ=<<TNS alias>>;UID=system;PWD=managerIf you wanted to move to the 10g client (the 10g Instant Client could be useful here), there are some streamlined naming methods that could be used instead of configuring the tnsnames.ora file.

Have a look at the reports help for the purpose header and trailer sections. Here is an exert:
"Report sectioning enables you to define multiple layouts in the same report, each with a different target audience, output format, page layout, page size, or orientation. You can define up to three report sections, each with a body area and a margin area: the names of the sections are Header, Main, and Trailer. By default, a report is defined in the Main section. In the other sections, you can define different layouts, rather than creating multiple separate reports. If you wish, you can use the margin and body of the Header and Trailer sections to create a Header and Trailer page for your reports."

Key Mapping with Oracle Reports

I am currently trying to run report requests using the Oracle Report Server however the problem that I have is that we need to send database username/password information over the network. From a security perspective this is not acceptable.
One way we were going to get around this is to "wrap" the Oracle Report servlet with another servlet, so the client browser sends the wrapper servlet information such as report location and report name, and the
wrapper servlet adds in additional information such as the username and
password, eliminating the need for the client application to know this information.
The problem is that the URL returned to the client when the report is generated contains the username/password, which again is not
acceptable. As I have seen mention that Oracle Reports can be run over the Internet,
I assume that there is a mechanism for hiding this information. Do you know how to achieve this?.
I am keen to just hard code the user name, password, and database connection into a key mapping file to resolve this security issue. However we are having trouble getting this method to work with the Oracle Report Servlet. We are using WebLogic Server to serve these servlets.

Hello,
Here is an extract from Reports documentation:
Oracle9iAS Reports Services Publishing Reports to the Web
Release 2 (9.0.2)
Part Number A92102-01
3.3.2 Reloading the Key Map File
Use the RELOAD_KEYMAP parameter to specify whether the key map file
(cgicmd.dat) should be reloaded each time the servlet receives a request.
For example:
RELOAD_KEYMAP=yes
This is useful if you frequently make changes to the map file and want the
process of loading your changes to be automatic. Runtime performance will be
affected according to how long it takes to reload the file.
Typically, this parameter is set to no in a production environment and yes in
a testing environment.

Need to solve serious security problem with Oracle Reports URL

As mentioned repeatedly on this forum, Oracle Reports allows serious security breaches that allow users to see reports that they did not generate -- it's easy to guess a legal URL by changing the getjobid parameter.
I've reviewed the JavaDocs to part of the rwrun.jar file and reviewed some of the example report plugins. This shows promise in helping to solve this security problem but critical pieces are missing.
1) The javadocs are accurate for only 10g (9.0.4) but not correct for 10g (10.1.2+), which we are currently using. I need access to the updated version of this javadoc.
2) Even with the updated version of the JavaDoc, I haven't found a class from which to inherit that would give me the opportunity to generate random jobid values, which then would effectively prevent users from guessing other jobid values, and thereby gaining access to other's reports (which in our cases, may contain sensitive information.
3) We have found that we can send the parameter=value of EXPIRATION=1 which helps protect such information, but this requires that every program which invokes a report be modified to add this parameter. It would be far better for the report server to be configured to use a java class we write that inherits from some rwrun.jar class that would by default, add the EXPIRATION=1 parameter.

Hi,
Thanks for our replies. I will ask to an administrator about this security problem, now I know it depends of a security parameter.
But I would know if it could be possible to hide the technical name of the query in the url. It could improve the security level of our reports in a first time in this way.
Thanks a lot,
JW.

Rearrange output pages with Oracle Reports

Hi
I'm using Oracle Reports Builder 10g and I need help on this subject:
I'm developing a report divided in sections that reference statistics of the partitions present in an IBM Machine. Each page in the first section appears also in the other sections of the reports, i.e. the first page of the first section (with data from partition A) has the same layout than the first page of the second section (with data from partition B in this case), which is page 14 on the final pdf report, and so on.
For each 'kind' of page in the final report I use a repeating frame that fills a whole page in the page layout in reports builder (the parameter is the partition), so I get n output pages for each page in the rdf file (n is the number of partitions). The problem: in the resulting pdf output file, the first page of first section appears first, then the first page of second section, and so on. I need the pdf to be arranged in the correct order.
Can someone help me on this subject?
Thanks and regards,
Alex
