Jasper Reports in Linux vs Jasper Reports in Windows

Dear Sirs...
an application is developed using jdeveloper 10.1.2 (struts with UIX technology) and used Jasper report to generated PDF and HTML reports programmatically (no XML files for reports tamplates are used).
in jdeveloper PDF reports are generated without problem,
i create a WAR file and deploy it to oracle application server R2 under windows, it works just fine.
that same WAR file is deployed into linux (again oracle application server R2), this time an exception occurs,
i only selected two jar files (jasperreports.jar and itext.jar) to be included into the war file.
now can any one explain to me why it runs perfectly fine in windows AS and not linux AS???? aren't both of them use the same java virtual machine????
any advice please???
best regards

sorry i forget to post the error in linux, the log contains the following:
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Error
compiling report java source files :
/home/oracle/OraHome/j2ee/home/EasyJasperDesign_1192848437309_635467.java
best regards

Hey guys/gals :)

Background:
I got a web application (java 1.4.2,Struts ) contained in Tomcat 5.0 server running on a Linux OS ver. 2.6.8.
The application works fine except when generating a report. It seems that the error is thrown during compilation
of the jasper template as suggested from the line ....JasperCompileManager.compileReport(JasperCompileManager.java:195) listed
above . I'm able to build the reports on Win 2K though.
What else needs to be done on the Linux side? All i've done so far is to set the path for java in the env. variables.
Have checked out varous sites/forums for solutions but so far still no luck. Your suggestions or assistance will be greatly appreciated.

To solve this issue, start your java environment with the option -Djava.awt.headless=true.
It solves the issue... if you google for "Linux"+"JasperReports"+"NoClassDefFoundError" you will find the background info on this issue.
Thx,
Rob

Jasper Reports Vs BIRT Vs JFree Reports

Hi every one.
I am very new in using reporting tools .I prefer to use some free ware. Can you suggest me which one is better and can you please give some comparision for Jasper reports and JFree Reports , I heard that Jasper reports are slow. Can we do some thing to improve the performance of Jasper Reports,
Thanks in advance for you quice reply

Yes you are right.. Thanks
And there is one more thing I want to know..
I am maintaining all SQL queries in a separate text file so that I can change them any time when needed. I just want to know am I doing right, it this a optmistict way of coding?? I am using my own function to prepare query statements. please check the following and please let me know if I am doing something silly :-)
Query in text file :
select label,control,controlid,valuetypescript,validationscript,style,cssclass,field_id from dynamic_controls where page_id=val0 and portfolio_id=val1
Call to QueryBuilder :
String [] QueryVals={"10",session.getAttribute("portfolioid").toString()};
QueryBuilder(QueryFromFile,QueryVals);
QueryBuilder defination :
public String QueryBuilder(String Query,String[] Val)
for(int indx=Val.length-1; indx>=0;indx--)
Query=Query.replace("val"+indx, Val [indx] );
return Query;

any idea guys ????

Hi,
It seems there is problem with sun.awt.image.codec.JPEGImageEncoderImpl
on Linux environment. With same JVM and JDK version(1.4.2_04) barcode bean works on windows XP.But on Linux it is giving ClassCastException.
It seems it is related to the Bug-4502892 reported on sun's website.

Deploying Forms and Reports on Linux

We are using Forms and Reports 6i in Client/Server mode in
Windows with all of our clients for years now with
complete success.
Most of these clients are small to medium size organizations
and don't have the resources or need to upgrate to 9iAS with all
the costs and complexities involved.
Now there is a demand to run these applications in Linux at
the client side, i.e. they want to put Linux machines at
the users desktops.
We noticed that there is a Linux version of Forms and Reports
in OTN and would like to try it, but we are concerned about
if the product is really suported by Oracle : There seems to
be no documentation, white papers or patches available.
Can please someone comment on this? Can we develop our forms and
reports in Windows and deploy then with the Linux runtime ?
Deployment with 9iAS is not an option.
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestion

Hi Goncalo,
There is no reason why this should not work on Linux, and there are patches available for Linux. The latest patch for Linux (patch 11, which is the latest Forms 6i patch) was released Sept 6th, 2002.

Can not run reports on Linux OS

Hi All,
We have running Oracle Forms and Reports Services 10g (9.0.4) on Windows 2003 Server.
The Application Works fine, and reports are generated successfully.
But when we access the same application by using Linux OS (RHEL 4.4),
The forms works fine but Linux OS could not run the report.
This seems to be a configuration problem.
Any Clues.
Thanks and Looking Forward.

Check rwserlvet.conf here you will see comment out  IN the part for the reports engine two lines, one is the Path for Reports the other is for TMP for reports, try to uncomment path and use this, then restart the reports server and see if it works.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

SCCM 2012 Linux "Installed Applications" report

Hello,
Is there a report built-in that can tell me what is installed on a Linux box?
I can see it is displayed in Hardware Inventory, but is not pulling any data on the Software reports.
Does a custom report needs to be built in order to pull this data?
Regards,
LeonardoT

Based on the information provided
here about the classes included in the inventory on Linux clients, I would assume that a report like
Software registered in Add Remove Programs on a specific computer
will show data.

Report runs in Report Builder but hangs in Report Server

Hi,
I am using Oracle Reports 10g to build a report with many formula columns. Everything was working perfectly till I added some condition in a query in formula columns. After adding it, report is not working in Report Server but runs only in Report Builder. If I removed this condition, report runs OK but I need it. This condition is very simple, just filtering be a decoded column (i.e. stts = 'D')
Can anyone suggest how to solve this problem?

Hi,
what is the application server version you are running your reports on?
If it is 10.1.2.0.2 to 10.1.2.2 and you are using PDF SUBSETTING (check the [PDF:Subset] section in the uifont.ali file in your server) then you are most probably facing Bug:5029259 . To resolve the issue read further Doc ID 363868.1 in Oracle Support. In short, your options are:
1. apply patchset 10.1.2.3 or maybe patch 5029259 is enough.
2. or make sure no NULL values are returned in the report. Use nvl where possible. If there was no problem before making the changes then maybe checking the new formula columns would be enough. I made this change myself when facing this issue and it appears that this resolved the problem.
3. or change REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET to NO in windows registry if under windows or $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh if under linux. REPORTS_ENHANCED_SUBSET=YES is necessary if you are using TTF subsetting, though. So this might not be an option.

Upgrade from crystal report 8.5 to crystal report 2011

Hi All,
Currently we are using crystal report 8.5 (PEAPI and dictionary files) (with VB6) to generate historical data for our product. Reports can have millions of records. We are using 2-tier architecture ( our client resides on windows machine and database
- Oracle10g dedicated server- resides on linux server).
We are planning to upgrade it to CR2011(with .NET)
My understanding is :
Crystal report designed in SAP Crystal Report 2011/SAP Crystal Reports(version for Visual Studio 2010)/.NET SDK for CR2011 and developed in VS2010 will use Crystal Reports(version for Visual Studio 2010) runtime. Please comment.
Is there any way to use PE APIs in Crystal report 2011 ? If not which is the best way to upgrade ?
Please comment.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hello,
Not sure which viewer you are using, should be CR.Windows.Form and in code using RAS ( Report Application Server ) you'll get these options which are now controllable by you to allow all or just some:
private void ViewReport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    rptClientDoc = rpt.ReportClientDocument;
    //crystalReportViewer1.ShowProgressAnimation(false);
    crystalReportViewer1.ShowGroupTreeButton = false;
    crystalReportViewer1.EnableDrillDown = false;
    //rpt.Refresh();
    crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rpt;
    // next line causes a delay due to the engine having to go to the last page.
    //rpt.FormatEngine.GetLastPageNumber(new ReportPageRequestContext());
// set up the format export types:
int myFOpts = (int)(
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.RptFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.PdfFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.RptrFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.XLSXFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.CsvFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.EditableRtfFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.ExcelRecordFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.RtfFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.WordFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.XmlFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.ExcelFormat |
    CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.ExcelRecordFormat);
    //CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.NoFormat); // show no export types
    //int myFOpts = (int)(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ViewerExportFormats.AllFormats);
crystalReportViewer1.AllowedExportFormats = myFOpts;
Only change is the Excel Export formats have changed, and no option to use the old Excel types available in CR 8.5. Search Kbase for Exporting to Excel, there is a great article on how to optimize your reports for best output.

Guidance choosing Report Server 6i or Oracle9i Reports ???

Hi.
This is a request for information and/or opinions really.
The company I work for want to extend the current Oracle facilities by providing enhanced reporting features, statistics, and analysis of existing databases. ( NB: we have several Oracle Databases at various versions on Sun Solaris and Linux )
We will shortly be upgrading to 8.1.7, possible to 9i mid next year!
My questions are :-
Is Oracle Reports Server 6i or Oracle9i Reports the way to go as opposed to developing in-house reporting facilities?
What requirements exist for Oracle Rpt Server 6i as opposed to Oracle9i Rpts, ie is 9i Reports backwards compatible with 6i? and is it also compatible with Oracle Server 8.1.7 Ent Edition ?
Any answers,opinions or links to URL's that could save me a lot of legwork or save me getting the runaround from Oracle Sales would be appreciated.
Regards

Hi Andrew,
You asked for some opinions, so here goes... :)
The company I work for want to extend the current Oracle facilities by providing enhanced reporting features, statistics, and analysis of existing databases. ( NB: we have several Oracle Databases at various versions on Sun Solaris and Linux )
We will shortly be upgrading to 8.1.7, possible to 9i mid next year!
My questions are :-
Is Oracle Reports Server 6i or Oracle9i Reports the way to go as opposed to developing in-house reporting facilities?Depends on your requirements. (Boring, standard and sort of meaningless answer, I know ;)) E.g. What kind of information do you want to "dig out", presentation formats, distribution demands... "analysis" sounds more like Discoverer and/or 9i DB analythical functions.
What requirements exist for Oracle Rpt Server 6i as opposed to Oracle9i Rpts, ie is 9i Reports backwards compatible with 6i? and is it also compatible with Oracle Server 8.1.7 Ent Edition ?If you have the chance (given business requirements, standards, existing investments, database server versions, hardware availability, license costs, etc.) to choose newer and supported versions (i.e. 9i), go for the "9i" version. Upgrading to 8.1.7 and later 9.x.x seems like one bit towards that.
BUT you should be aware that Reports is nowadays, so called, integrated with the 9i AS package. In my experience, AS is more demanding than the previous 6i (different architecture, bigger installation, a lot of running servers/processes, more things to manage). On the other hand, the software infrastructure which is AS can be used in delivering a lot of different applications (compared to "simple" Reports reports). With Certified Configurations and thelike, perhaps a complete, tested and supported sw&hw solution could be less expensive (but this I haven't tried yet).

Reports 11gR2 - The in-process Reports Server failed to start

Hello,
I recently installed the new Forms Reports 11gR2 on an Oracle Linux 5 update 6 64bit. Firstly, I installed the JDK1.6.29 64bit. Then, I installed the Weblogic Server 10.3.5 (jar version). Finally, I installed the Forms Reports 11gR2. After installation I reboot the machine. When it came up I manually started the Weblogic Server (10.3.5), the WLS_Forms, the WLS_Reports and OPMN. Everything looks fine except the in-process reports server.
I can access the page (http://apps8.orasys.gr:8888/reports/rwservlet) without any problems but when I try to access the showjobs (http://apps8.orasys.gr:8888/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?)
I get this message “REP-52266: The in-process Reports Server rep_wls_reports_apps8_asinst_1 failed to start.oracle.reports.RWException: IDL:oracle/reports/RWException:1.0”
The status of the In-process Reports Server is down. When I try to start it, it fails. This is what I get in the log files:
